The thin morning light enveloped the Medical Department.

Several doctors were helping Xun bandage his wounds... His injuries were not serious, but the Shangshutai was burned. This incident was obviously planned.

There was no water in the water tanks inside and outside the Shangshu Deck, and the fire could not be extinguished as soon as possible.

This is such a coincidence!

This also cast a thick layer of haze on Xun's mood.

"Mr. Xun Lingjun, should I report this to King Wei?"

Cui Yan was standing beside Xun...

"No need!" Xun waved his hand, but he didn't expect... Even if he waved his hand gently, he pulled the wound on his shoulder, and a sudden sensation of pain came.

But he still gritted his teeth and opened his mouth: "Now, the King of Wei is in charge of the southward movement in Chibi, and he cannot worry about the rear anymore."

"Then..." Cui Yan narrowed his eyebrows, "It is also extremely important to burn the Shangshutai and assassinate Xun Lingjun!"

The implication is... The Shangshutai coordinates some troops, horses, money and grain dispatch, and Xun is the soul of the Shangshutai...

If anything goes wrong, then... even if Chibi wins, the subsequent supplies will be cut off!

The front is important, and the rear is also important!

"It was Xun's negligence..." Xun's eyes narrowed slightly, "Young Master Pi's Tongque Tower was completed. I wanted His Majesty and the civil and military officials of the court to witness it, but I never thought... Xu Ducheng had a mistake. The most urgent task...

Strengthen the protection of many cities!”

"What does Xun Lingjun mean?"

"The guard Ma Shoucheng is in charge of the palace guards, please transfer him back." Xun whispered: "Last night's investigation was not only the water tank of Shangshutai interrupted, but also the water tank in the palace was inexplicably missing.

water!"

"Xun Lingjun is saying... the other party's purpose is not just Shangshutai?" Cui Yan asked in surprise.

Xun nodded. "What's the point of burning the Shangshu Deck? If you really want to burn the palace with one fire, that's a big mess!"

"Mr. Cui, it's not time to go and do it immediately. Summon Ma Weiwei back to Xudu. During this period, we will strengthen protection inside and outside Xudu City, especially the palace, to prevent those slutty people from taking advantage of the situation!"

"Okay!" Cui Yan nodded immediately. "I'll go and tell the Lord of Manfu..."

Xun felt a little relieved when he heard the three words "Mr. Manfu". He closed his eyes slightly... closed his eyes to rest.

…

…

Xudu City suburbs...

A manor is said to be a manor... In fact, there are only three or five people in this place.

This is Xiahou Juan's "fetal care" place for the outside world. Because he wanted to rest, he only brought a few confidant maids.

Actually...

Xiahou Juan is trying to conceal the fact that he is "fake pregnancy"...

Cai Zhaoji also lives here, saying that while taking care of Xiahou Juan, he continued to compile the "Continuation of Han Shu". In fact... he was to safeguard and nourish the fetus!

The maid is young because he is afraid that there will be something he can't believe... and the news leaked.

But... because of Sister Zhaoji's body, there are not many things at all.

Sometimes, Xiahou Juan had to go to Rangshan not far from the manor to pick up firewood. Of course, she was familiar with this. She had been so simple since she was a child... she had already started picking firewood here when she was seven or eight years old.

"One wood, one tree, one grass, one tree..."

Suddenly he returned to his former life... Xiahou Juan stood at the foot of Rangshan and sighed.

Once upon a time, she made great contributions to picking up firewood in Rangshan...

Therefore, his uncle and adoptive father were accused of marrying Lu Ziyu...

Calculate the days, now I have been the wife of the Marquis’ Mansion for many years.

She felt that... she has grown a lot in the past few years.

"There is a clear dream of pear blossoms, but the firewood and jing are together, and the face is light and relaxed, and we respect you as guests!"

I chanted a gentle sentence and recalled... I felt warm in my heart over the years with Lu Yu, but the pity was that... I didn't have to work hard like Sister Zhaoji, who has a husband and a child!

well…

Xiahou Juan sometimes wondered, if...what if it was really as announced to the public, she was pregnant?

How great that would be!

"cough…"

A gentle cough...

I was imaginative, and I looked up and saw the sun at noon.

"Ah..." Xiahou Juan exclaimed, "It's time to go back, otherwise... Sister Zhaoji will go hungry."

Speaking of this...

Xiahou Juan hurried out of Rangshan and headed towards the villa.

She is so familiar with this mountain!

In the past, she could find out where Liu Bei's army was stationed and made great contributions... She was naturally familiar with every path.

It took someone else a while to go down the mountain, but she... in less than a stick of incense, she had already arrived at the foot of the mountain!

There is also the firewood picked up in the bamboo basket...

She was getting dark on her cheeks. She was used to saving money, didn’t like buying firewood, and liked to pick up firewood... She felt that this was a gift from nature!

…

…

On a rainy night, Ma Teng, who had just arrived in Yecheng, received an urgent document.

Xu Ducheng...

The Shangshutai was burned down and Xun Lingjun was assassinated.

This news made him feel energetic and neglected when he was sleeping... He only considered protecting the emperor's completeness, but never thought that someone was ill-treated against Luoyang!

And now is the critical moment when King Cao Cao of Wei went south.

Xu Ducheng cannot be missed...

"What did Xun Lingjun say?"

"Summon Ma Weiwei to return to Xudu immediately." The messenger reported truthfully.

"Okay!" Ma Teng nodded, "My son, Ma Tie, is still there, and he can protect His Majesty and all officials. I will rush back to Xu Du now... I cannot let go of these despicable tricks of the slut!

”

"father…"

A crisp female voice suddenly came.

It seemed that he heard that Xu Du was in a hurry, so Ma Yunlu rushed over... but he heard the conversation between his father and the messenger outside the door.

"Dad is going back?"

"Xu Ducheng cannot be misunderstood!" Ma Teng's tone was decisive...

As one of the nine ministers, the King of Wei is not here now, and this huge Han capital needs him to protect it!

"That daughter goes with her father!" Ma Yunlu suggested.

"Don't watch the Tongquetai?"

"What's so good about the Tongquetai?" Ma Yunlu blinked his big eyes, "but his daughter is very interested in going to Xudu City to catch those villains."

"Hahaha..." Ma Teng laughed, and waved his sleeves. "It's worthy of being my daughter. Go clean up immediately. Tomorrow... let's go!"

…

…

It has been eighteen days since Huang Gai's son Huang Bing entered Wulin Port.

According to Huang Bian's words... Huang Gai's surrender was two days ahead of schedule.

This is actually understandable. After all, life is dead, but people live. To lead food and grass, the generals surrender to Cao Cao, what they need is the right time, place, and people...

And this day, the ninth day of the 11th lunar month, is such a good day for people to gather together...

Early in the morning that day, the south bank of the Yangtze River...

At this time, it is still the north wind here...

A high platform jumped up. This platform was nine feet high and made of three floors. One hundred and twenty disciples under the stage held flags and banners in their hands...

This platform is called "Seven Star Platform"!
