Ma Liang cupped his hands and said: "Liao Gongyuan is in Bajun. His previous comments on the Yangtze River were sharp. I think we can ask him to comment on a few more issues."

"What Ji Chang said is very good. In the past two years, celebrities from Jingzhou have made comments, but the style is still too euphemistic." Xu Shu nodded affirmatively.

Lan Tian frowned and said: "Since we are going to condemn for a long time, we'd better broaden our horizons. The celebrities in Jingzhou can be criticized, the celebrities in Yizhou can also be criticized, and even the celebrities in Jiangdong can be criticized..."

"Famous people from Jiangdong? No, no, no. Before Cao Cao went south to fight at Chibi, Jiangdong's counselor Zhang Zhao took the lead in asking for surrender. They had long ignored the emperor and admired Cao Cao. How could they be willing to criticize in the Yangtze River News?" Guan Yu shook his head after hearing this.

The corner of Lantian's mouth raised slightly, "All the officials in Jiangdong can surrender to Cao, but Sun Zhongmou will not surrender to Cao. Doesn't Lu Zijing want to repair it? Shouldn't they condemn Cao Cao for arrogating the throne?"

"Since Ziyu agrees, we will resume trade. Anyway, before Zhuge's military advisor entered Shu, he told me to fight with Sun Quan in the east and reject Cao Cao in the north. I will send people to report to Lu Zijing later." Guan Yu nodded slightly.

Lantian reminded: "Although non-governmental trade and exchanges are resumed, we cannot relax our vigilance."

Guan Yu smiled coldly: "Ziyu can rest assured, the public security in Dongting is guarded by General Gan and General Su. I have also set up beacon towers along the river to send messages, so I will not give the rats from Jiangdong a chance to attack."

Lan Tian nodded: "Anyway, be careful."

"How many days will Ziyu stay in Jiangling? Mother will cook for you with her own hands." Xu Shu asked with a smile.

Lan Tian shook his head and said: "The old lady's kindness will be reserved for next time. I will leave for Jiaozhou tomorrow. My wife is pregnant with Liujia and has limited mobility. There are still a lot of government affairs in the state..."

"That's really gratifying. I won't keep you here this time." Xu Shu responded with a smile.

Guan Yu looked Lan Tian up and down and praised: "Ziyu, you're okay."

Lan Tian was startled when he heard this, thinking, what can I say? Then he said to Xu Shu: "Guangzhou City faces the sea, and the warm sun shines on my face in winter. I have built several small courtyards in the city. Yuan Zhi can take the old lady there.

winter."

Xu Shu nodded, "I'll definitely go if I have time."

Lan Tian turned around and told Jiang Wan: "Gong Yan, we will return to Jiaozhou tomorrow. Could you please and Ji Chang (Ma Liang) find someone to copy the Treatise on Febrile Diseases and Miscellaneous Diseases?"

"Wei." Jiang Wan nodded.

Xu Shu also said to Ma Liang: "This issue of the Yangtze River News has a more passionate tone. We will do our best to punish the Cao thieves verbally and writtenly, and the first draft will be produced within three days."

"Wei." Ma Liang bowed and raised his hand.

After Jiang Wan and Ma Liang left, Lantian continued to discuss the regional situation with Guan Yu and Xu Shu. Since Sun Quan's last sneak attack failed, there has been no fighting in Jingzhou for a long time. Especially after Ma Chao became the governor of Linju, he had trouble with Cao's army in Xiangyang and Fancheng.

Powerful deterrent effect.

A few days ago, Zhang Fei defeated Zhang He in Danqu. When the news reached Jingzhou, Guan Yu was happy for him for a long time.

"My lord has gained so many people in Hanzhong for nothing. I think after two years of rest, he will plot against Hanzhong, right?" Xu Shu analyzed the situation.

Lan Tian nodded in affirmation: "My brother-in-law took in the refugees from Hanzhong to farm and grow grain, which will be a big help in conquering Hanzhong in the future. I think this day won't be long. If Sun Quan can contain Cao Cao in Huainan, how can Xia Houyuan be my brother-in-law's opponent?"

Guan Yu shook his head and stroked his beard: "Sun Quan's 100,000 men were defeated by Zhang Wenyuan's 800. I don't have any expectations for him anyway. I will build up my troops in Jingzhou in the past two years. When the time comes, my eldest brother will conquer Hanzhong. Cao Cao will lead the main force to help Jingzhou."

The soldiers can then wait for the opportunity to take back Xiangfan and advance towards Wanluo."

"Yun Chang and I have the same opinion. If my lord can trap Cao Cao in Hanzhong, and General Guan can attack Xiangfan with Jingzhou soldiers, and then cut off Cao Cao's return route to the Central Plains, then the world will be settled and the Han Dynasty will be prosperous." Xu Shu agreed.

.

Lan Tian nodded slightly in response. It was difficult for him to predict what had not happened yet, but if the old historical trajectory continued, the Guan Erye in front of him would fall after the highlight moment. His mission is to prevent this from happening. For this reason, he only

It can attract Sun Quan's hatred and forcefully seize the lane right.

"Why is Ziyu frowning? Do you have any worries? When Guan Mou goes to the Central Plains, I will rely on you for money, food, soldiers and armor..." Guan Yu said seriously.

Lan Tian smiled and promised: "Don't worry, Mr. Yun. The troops, horses, money and food are all my responsibility. I will recruit more troops for you when the time comes.

In addition, I asked Li Yi to build ships in the South China Sea, but there is a big difference between sea-going ships and inland river ships. Do you want to send some shipbuilders from Jingzhou south? Build warships near Quanling or Cangwu. This secret shipbuilding can paralyze Cao Ren and Lu

Zijing."

"Yuanzhi, we have Mr. Xuan Owl in charge, so we can all sit back and relax." Guan Yu sighed.

The three officers were chatting in the palace, while Gao Shun was bored outside. He was very worried that Lan Ji would not adapt to Jiangling, so he called Guan Ping many times and asked him to take care of him.

Guan Yu accidentally caught a glimpse of Gao Shun talking to Guan Ping with a solemn expression, so he shouted loudly to the outside of the palace: "Ping'er, what's wrong with General Gao?"

Without waiting for Guan Ping's response, Gao Shun entered the palace and asked for instructions: "General Guan, Military Advisor Xu, sir, we are going back to Jiaozhou tomorrow. Do you want to go see how Ji'er is adapting?"

"Then let's go take a look?" Lan Tian asked.

Guan Yu stood up with a smile, "Then let's go. Ji'er has a lively and cheerful personality. He is about the same age as An Guo. He should be able to play well."

Lan Tian, ​​Xu Shu, and Gao Shun followed Guan Yu into the back house. As they walked outside the door, they heard cheers from inside.

When everyone came in, they saw that it was Lan Ji who was showing off his stick skills, Guan Xing, who was four years older than him, had already tied his hair, and his eight-year-old fan girl Guan Yinping kept clapping her hands.

Lan Ji and Guan Yinping both wore their hair tied with two horns. Guan Yinping looked cute and cute, while Lan Ji's style looked a bit funny.

"Anguo, Yinping, come and call someone." As soon as Guan Yu walked into the courtyard, a dark cloud seemed to appear above the children.

"Uncle, Mr. Xu..." Guan Xing and Guan Yinping saluted in unison.

"Father, uncle, Mr. Xu..." Lan Ji followed and saluted.

Guan Yu pointed at Gao Shun and said, "This is General Gao. You can call him Uncle Gao."

"Uncle, my name is Uncle Gao..." Lan Ji reminded.

Guan Yu was startled and asked why his seniority was so high? Lan Tian was helpless because he was Lu Bu's son-in-law, and Gao Shun's seniority was really embarrassing.

"Uh...then you can call after Ji'er." Guan Yu shook his head.

"Uncle Gao..." Guan Xing and Guan Yinping held their hands in greeting.

Gao Shun could only nod and responded awkwardly. Lan Tian changed the topic and asked: "I remember that the second young master is only thirteen years old, why has he already started to tie his hair?"

"Anguo's head grows very fast, and it would be unsightly to comb his hair into a child's bun, so I not only tied his hair in advance, but also gave him a name in advance. However, Guan saw that Ji'er was growing faster, so Ziyu also arranged it for him earlier.

Tie your hair." Guan Yu explained. (Note: In ancient times, 15-year-olds had their hair tied, and 20-year-olds had their hair tied)
