When Liu Bei and Lan Tian came back, Lu Lingqi, Gan Qian and several juniors were sitting on the benches of Quanling Academy in the Little Flower Hall, waiting for the arrival of the gold medal lecturer Lan Ziyu.

Only Liu Bei has never seen Lantian's story-telling ability. He saw the others sitting upright, like students in a school, so he smiled and said: "You are quite active. I'll also listen to what Ziyu says about this."

The clouds turn into rain, and the dew turns into frost.'"

Liu Bei sat in the middle with a smile, but because of his huge body, he just blocked Adou and Lan Ji. Adou was afraid of Liu Bei and did not dare to remind him. Instead, Lan Ji boldly said: "Uncle is blocking us, you should go behind us and listen."

"Ha... Ji'er makes sense..." Liu Bei smiled and walked behind the children and slowly sat down next to Gan Qian. As a lord, he was used to a good seat and unconsciously sat at the end.

Front center.

Lan Tian used a blackboard and chalk to give a lecture using pictures and texts. This teaching method can make abstract things concrete.

Before starting the lecture, Lan Tian first picked up a lime block and directly drew the complete water cycle on the blackboard using pictures and arrows.

"The water in the oceans and rivers is burned by the heat of the sun, which is equivalent to the water in the pot being dried up, and then slowly turning into air and rising..." Lan Tian tried his best to explain in a simple way, because although the water cycle is easy to understand

, but it involves a variety of knowledge such as energy conversion, solar radiation, and earth's gravity. If expanded, it would subvert this group of ancient people.

"Uncle, water is really magical. It can change into so many things. Now I can understand the saying 'clouds turn into rain and dew turns into frost'." Adou said with a smile.

Lan Tian saw that Adou understood it, and it is estimated that the other children could basically understand it. I am indeed a gold medal lecturer. I am not in vain.

The one who listened most attentively was Liu Bei. The ancients relied on their understanding to learn. The teaching method of Lan Tian was really novel. After listening to it, he couldn't help but sigh: "It is indeed as good as water. With the softest in the world, I can ride on the strongest in the world. My teachings are as good as water."

The sentence "Like a fish in water needs to be changed". Everything in the world needs water. If there is water, it will live forever."

Lan Tian nodded and said: "You are a boat and the people are water. Water can carry a boat but also capsize it..."

"The common people are the water. Ziyu always has words of provocation. I wish I could always be by your side and listen to your teachings..." Liu Bei sighed unconsciously as he thought of returning to Jiangling tomorrow.

Lan Tian comforted: "Sentimental feelings have been saddened by separation since ancient times. Jiangling and Lingling are not far away. I will visit you as soon as I have free time."

Gan Qian said: "It's not far away but only a few days' journey by water. Since Ziyu is in charge of the military affairs of the four counties, he shouldn't stay in Lingling all the time. Even if he moves to Wuling, Changsha is closer to Jiangling."

Liu Bei was inspired after hearing this, and he suggested: "Youjiangkou is quite close to Jiangling. Ziyu can move there."

"Since Jiaozhou is not peaceful, it is more convenient to stay in Lingling." Lantian explained.

"If I had known that I would not agree to Lu Ziheng, I would have written to Wu Ju several times. He always had his own ideas. You have to worry about General Lai." Liu Bei instructed.

"Uncle, Adou will return to Jiangling tomorrow, can you tell me another story..." When Liu Chan spoke, he glanced at the two brothers Lan Yuan and Lan Ji.

There are thousands of stories hidden in Lantian's belly. These stories include myths, phone calls, Eastern and Western stories. Because he often tells Lan Yuan and Lan Ji bedtime stories, this makes little Adou envious. After arriving at Quanling

But Lan Ji was still under the quilt, and he was really reluctant to leave soon.

So Lan Tian pretended to be Liu Bei and told the children the story of Little Red Riding Hood.

Adou was a little scared when he heard this, but Lan Ji raised his little fist and said, "Adou, don't be afraid. If you really encounter such a wolf grandmother, I will help you eliminate her."

"Ji'er, can you beat me?" Liu Bei asked jokingly.

"Uncle Gao praised me for being stronger than my elder brother. In the future, let alone wolves, I am not even afraid of tigers." Lan Ji said, patting his chest.

"Ji'er, don't praise Haikou." Lan Tian frowned, the second child just wanted to be more pushy than the eldest brother.

Liu Bei laughed and said, "Ji'er has bravery and will become a general in the future. Then he can protect Adou. My brothers and sisters, don't let your family's martial arts be buried."

Lu Lingqi nodded slightly and said to her heart that I will teach my two sons good martial arts. As long as they insist on practicing since childhood, they will be much better than Lan Tian.

After a night's rest, Lan Tian went to the dock to see off Liu Bei, and Zhuge Liang returned to Jiangling. The two brothers Lan Yuan and Lan Ji gave a lot of toys to Adou, because they knew that if the old ones don't go, the new ones won't come.

Lai Gong was also going south to Bushan that day. Lan Tian told him: "Bu Zhao has no good intentions in intervening in Jiaozhou. As long as Lai Gong sticks to Bushan, if there is any trouble, ask Lu Tie to send someone to Quanling. I will

I will support you as soon as possible.”

"With General Lan's words, I feel at ease." Lai Gong boarded the ship with great joy.

"Brothers from the Jiaozhi taxi family, you can have more contact with each other, do you understand how to make friends from far away and attack those close to you?" Lan Tian added.

"Wei." Lai Gong nodded.

Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang took a boat back to Jiangling. They passed by the mouth of Youjiang River and were delighted to see the fortifications, so they renamed the place Gong'an and told Zhuge

Liang Zhi Shu Mi Fang moved the Wuling Administrative Office to Gong'an.

Because Guan Yu had insufficient troops and resisted Cao Cao's army head-on, he did not gain much benefit. However, Zhang Fei and Pang Tong won a great victory at Yishui, mainly because they captured hundreds of war horses. Liu Bei gained a lot from this joint operation.

When Liu Bei was celebrating Zhang Fei and Pang Tong, Huang Zhong reported to him that Zhou Yu wanted to enter Jiangling but was rejected.

Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "Old General Huang did the right thing. This time Zhou Lang left Xinye undefended and actually used the road to take Yizhou at this time. He clearly had something in his heart."

Xu Shu agreed and said: "I also guessed that it was a false plan to attack Guo, but there were thousands of troops garrisoned in Jiangling City, so Zhou Gongjin gave up in the end."

"Zhou Yu asked Lu Zijing to go into the city to find out the truth. If we hadn't mobilized troops from Changsha in advance, Jiangling would probably have been attacked by force. He had 30,000 elite navy troops." Zhuge Liang analyzed.

Xu Shu snorted coldly: "So what if Zhou Yu makes a sneak attack on Jiangling? As long as General Guan intercepts the Yangtze River waterway in Jiangxia and lets Ziyu send troops from Jingnan to rescue him, won't he be a turtle in the urn?"

"Hahaha, Zhou Yu doesn't know how to do business. If he has a few military advisers who want to go so far, they won't waste time and money by traveling all the way." Zhang Fei laughed.

Pang Tong shook his head, "Yide has a good grasp of time costs."

Liu Bei worried and said: "Zhou Yu almost destroyed the Sun-Liu alliance. Now that we don't have Jiangdong to defend us against Cao Cao, Xiangfan in the north has to pay attention."

"The latest information received from Xinye is that Cao Cao's main force has moved to Huainan. It seems that Zhou Lang made a big detour and later went to help Sun Zhongmou capture Hefei." Zhuge Liang analyzed while shaking his feather fan.

"As long as Jiangdong resists Cao Cao." Liu Bei nodded.

Ten days later, news came back that Zhou Yu had died of illness in Chaisang, and all the officials in Jiangling were shocked.

Zhuge Liang hurriedly asked Guan Yu in Jiangxia and Liu Pan in Changsha to strengthen the alert to prevent Jiangdong soldiers from invading Jingzhou. This was not lifted until Lu Su took office as the governor.

Although Cao Cao conquered Xinye, Jiangdong's navy put great pressure on Hefei. He had to station troops in Huainan to divert water to irrigate the fields, and asked Cao Ren to strengthen the defense in Xiangfan. He did not have enough troops to continue the southward attack on Jiangling.

Liu Bei rarely seized the opportunity to recuperate, so Zhuge Liang sent people to recruit and train new soldiers in various places to prepare for the next step of Longzhong's plan.

After Gan Qian and Adou returned to Jiangling, in order to meet Adou frequently, Liu Bei placed the mother and son in the back hall of the General's Mansion, two streets away from Sun Shangxiang's villa. Although Gan Qian was now a concubine, she received such treatment

But she is better than the mistress.

Liu Bei doted on Gan Qian and Adou, and the time to go to Sun Shangxiang's villa was dwindling day by day. This made Miss Sun unable to sit still, so she prepared to go to see Gan Qian aggressively, but as soon as she walked out of the villa, she was stopped by Zhao Yun.

"Zilong wants to stop me? I am the wife of Xuande, not a prisoner of Jiangling." It has been more than half a year since she married in Jiangling. Sun Shangxiang knew that Zhao Yun was monitoring her in the name of protection. With her squeak, someone beside her

The dozen or so maidservants all drew their swords to protect the Lord.

Under the tense situation, Zhao Yun was not afraid at all. He smiled and said: "Yun dare to stop the mistress, but you are so angry, where are you going?"

"I'm a little bored in the other courtyard. I'm going to go to Xuande's place for a walk, won't you let me go?" Sun Shangxiang asked coldly.

"How dare Zhao Yun do this? But since I escort you all the way, there is no need for them to follow."

Sun Shangxiang frowned, waved to the maid behind him, and then walked forward with his head held high, while Zhao Yun and a group of soldiers guarded behind.

"Zilong, what have Xuande been doing recently? I haven't seen you for a long time." Sun Shangxiang deliberately used a false tone. Regardless of the maids she brought, there were hundreds of servants, but she only got bits and pieces of information.

Zhao Yun cupped his fists and said perfunctorily: "Jingzhou has a lot of affairs, my lord must be too busy..."
