Mixed in the Three Kingdoms as a strategist

Chapter 72 The Yellow Turban Curse

Guo Jia was surprised, but he didn't express any opinion on this matter. Instead, he chatted with Yan Qing about other interesting things: What makes Yan Qing dumbfounded is that Xu Shu, who has always been straightforward and staunch, did not know what to do with Yan Qing. Guo Jiamao seemed to be on the hook, and he never forgot to take time out of his busy schedule to denounce him for his misbehavior. He went there last night and again this morning.And Guo Jia also went from being annoyed at the first time, to coping with it freely later, with ease.

The two chatted happily while drinking tea, and Yan Qing habitually brought the topic to Lu Bu: "I don't know why my lord left the mansion so early in the morning?"

Guo Jia asked, "Did Chongguang ever mention Dengyong and Sun Bofu to him?"

Yan Qing said: "Of course, we made an appointment to go together today." Speaking of this, he had a flash of inspiration and said in amazement: "Could it be..."

Guo Jia glanced at Yan Qing's slightly green eyes indiscriminately, and nodded to confirm his guess: "It probably saves you the trouble of going all the way."

Yan Qing was puzzled: "Why did my lord suddenly value him so much that I can't even afford to wait for Qing to get up and wash?"

He went quietly early in the morning. If Lu Bu hadn't been at a loss when he heard about Sun Ce last night, and his interest in letting him call the shots was lacking, Yan Qing would have believed that he had seen through Xiao Ce. The potential of the Overlord suddenly made him love talents.

Guo Jia lazily said, "Perhaps it's because the lord is sympathetic to Chongguang's hard work day and night, or..."

Yan Qing was confused, while Guo Jia raised his eyebrows, smiled inscrutablely, put down the teacup, stretched out his right hand, palm facing upwards, and put three fingers together, making a requesting gesture of hooking back .

Yan Qing understood what he meant, smiled coldly, and said indifferently: "My lord is unpredictable, how can I allow my subordinates to spy easily? It doesn't matter if you don't know."

In order to satisfy this little bit of curiosity, he had to send this insatiable glutton of wine another fine wine, and Yan Qing would agree to be damned.

Even if the wine was unsuccessful, with Guo Jian's incomparably thick skin, there was no trace of shyness at all. He just stretched out his hand back without concealing regret, and changed the subject: "The two ladies are still in Xucheng?"

After Lu Bu was convinced, he ran for thousands of miles non-stop, not to mention that he hadn't entered the dormitory of the two wives who were only middle-aged and suspected of being old and young for a long time. Sudden and intentional, the weak wife and daughter couldn't bear the pain of rushing all the way.

But the person who asked this question was Guo Jia, a genius who can see everything at a glance. Yan Qing couldn't help but be cautious: "Exactly. Is there something wrong?"

His mind immediately turned to Wei Shi and her brother Wei Xu.

Since the black petition failed and he was scolded and beaten, Wei Xu was completely disgusted by Lu Bu, who knew what he liked and hated. Although he did not take his post, he was never employed again.

Yan Qing knew that although he should not be blamed for that matter no matter how strange it was, but he would definitely be angered, so he secretly prepared for it.Unexpectedly, they seemed to die down without any action, which was really abnormal.

Thinking of what conspiracy they might be brewing, Yan Qing, who had read Romance of the Three Kingdoms countless times, was the first to think of raising troops to rebel—could it be that he wanted to take advantage of Lu Bu's travels, Jia Xu and Zhang Liao to preside over the overall situation, and this once-in-a-lifetime event with no skills at all? Initiate a mutiny?

Guo Jiawan seemed to have insight into Yan Qing's mind, and said with a smile: "Chongguang is overthinking! It's just that I am worried that the lord's knees are weak, and he is in the prime of life, but because he and his wife get together less and leave more, only one daughter is really hard to make people feel at ease. Has Chongmitsu ever thought about sending someone to fetch his wife?"

"As a courtier, how can he presumptuously interfere with the affairs of the lord's rear house? It is not the way of a courtier."

Yan Qing took a sip of tea calmly, and didn't intend to dip into this muddy water, not because he realized that he had ulterior motives for Lu Bu.

Although he is worried about Lu Bu's heirs, but as the mastermind, he is already a big fan, and he has repeatedly advocated reforms. The prestige he has accumulated is Lu Bu's unreserved support and trust.

There is a honeymoon period between all close lords and ministers. The latter looks stable at present, and Yan Qing does not dare to test it lightly. Stretching his hand into the lord's backyard is a big or small matter, but at this sensitive moment he , and in a confidential position, if this crossing of the boundary unfortunately touches any sensitive nerve of Lu Bu, he will really lose more than the gain.

When Guo Jia proposed this suggestion, it was only eight parts probing and two parts joking. Seeing Yan Qing categorically refused, his heart brightened, and he figured out the embarrassing situation of the two wives in name only, and said with a smile: "My lord often stays here, but look at it." Which beautiful maidservant in Chongguang's mansion is hard to speak?"

Yan Qing subconsciously wanted to refute. After thinking for a while, she vaguely felt that there was some truth to it. Apart from the drunkard's intention not to drink, why would Lu Bu, who is generally useless and can't get up early, have to rely on his bed for nothing?

It's just that after he went through all the looks of the maidservant close to him in his mind, he completely rejected this guess: "Fengxiao didn't know something. In the past, Wang Yun had a girl named Diaochan, who was both excellent in dance and appearance. , has the reputation of being a shameful flower in the moon, if the lord refuses, how can he be attracted to a maidservant who is only plain in appearance, and still go so far as to be reserved?"

Even though Lu Bu was more feminine, his vision was extremely high, and he was very picky about what to drink and what to eat.

"Is that so?"

Guo Jia murmured, and suddenly retracted the heavy fan, thoughtfully.

He didn't sit for long before he had to say goodbye.

"By the way, just wait for a while." Yan Qing suddenly remembered the bedtime reading that Guo Jia left in the bedroom, went to get it out in person, and handed it to the other party in a good voice: "I didn't forget right?"

Guo Jia could tell at a glance that the pages of the book had been turned. After putting the book into his sleeve calmly, he smiled and said, "Did Chong Guang read it?"

Yan Qing glanced at him vigilantly, and immediately clarified: "I haven't touched a single bit of it, but my lord turned it over and glanced a few times."

Guo Jia blinked: "Oh, what did my lord say?"

Yan Qing said without hesitation: "He said that the annotations you made are quite valuable, and he intends to use them."

Seeing Guo Jia's thought-provoking smile, with an expression full of malicious intentions, Yan Qing suddenly had a bad premonition, and hesitated: "What is this..."

Guo Jia didn't answer, but bluntly turned the book to the second half, and then calmly leaned in front of Yan Qing, and laid out the answers he wanted to know.

——The cover is clearly the title of the biography that Yan Qing once read in its entirety, and the first half of it is also a normal text, but the second half has been replaced with lifelike erotic pictures without anyone noticing .

Yan Qing's eyes were wide open, and he was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time: "You actually read this stuff for several nights pretending to be serious in front of me?!"

When he saw it for the first time, under Guo Jia's gaze, he hastily flipped through the whole book once, and never touched it again, not wanting to hide a mystery behind it the next day.

After teasing Yan Qing successfully, Guo Jia put it away again with a smile, and continued to tease: "What is 'this thing'? It's just a small taste of explaining the love between men and women. It's a pity that Chong Guang is too gentlemanly. , failed to get a glimpse of the mystery."

Reminiscent of Lu Bu's strange gaze when he asked, Yan Qing couldn't react at this moment. Lu Bu must have seen the essence that was roughly hidden when he flipped through it casually last night, and almost regarded him as a must-see before going to bed. Look at the libertine of the little yellow picture.

Thinking that her character in front of the lord was almost ruined, Yan Qing's eyebrows twitched, and she glared: "Feng Xiao has hurt me a lot this time!"

Guo Jia sighed, shook his head and said: "Jiashi is out of kindness and kindness, Chongguang just doesn't appreciate it, how can he reprimand Jia? It's so incomprehensible, no wonder Chongguang is accompanied by a beautiful maidservant, and he doesn't know how to pity and cherish jade. Porcelain carvings and decorations, but asking Jia to find some prostitutes, firstly, it is a waste of money, secondly, it is too close to seek far away, and thirdly, it is too wasteful."

Before he finished speaking, he was thrown out by Yan Qing angrily.

At noon, Lu Bu, who was dressed in the cold, returned to the meeting hall with a solemn expression, and said straight to the point: "Sun Bo's talisman has descended, and he will lead the old Wentai department first."

Yan Qing frowned and said, "Then why is my lord worried? But the situation on the front line has changed?"

Lu Bu shook his head and said, "Fang has to hurry and report that all the Yellow Turban bandits in Yangzhou have been wiped out, all the prisoners have been bound, and they are already on their way back to the city."

Yan Qing waited patiently for the next sentence.

Lu Bu thought for a while, and then continued, "But perhaps because of the spell cast by the people in the yellow scarf, Zilong's army was attacked by the plague."

Hearing this shocking news, Yan Qing only felt a bang in his head, as if he had fallen into a hole in the ice.

He patronized to store grain and cultivate wasteland, and dealt with the drought and locust plague that would come a few years later, but he completely forgot that the plague was worse than the first two!

This is a very distant word for modern people, but in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, apart from the raging wars, it was the most shocking, which made the deadly evil of "the bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no chicken crowing for thousands of miles". Ghosts were also one of the culprits that caused the population of the Eastern Han Dynasty to drop from a peak of more than 5000 million to more than 1000 million.

Especially in the densely populated Central Plains, once the prevention and control is not timely, the consequences of spreading will undoubtedly be disastrous. It can be said that if the control is not handled properly, let alone the people in the Lu Bu army who are the source of the plague and bear the brunt, even the entire Yangzhou The Limin people were not spared either.

Even Ying wrote "Treatise on Febrile Diseases and Miscellaneous Diseases" a few years later, which saved countless lives. The clan of Zhang Zhongjing, who was honored as a medical saint by later generations, also suffered from these severe infectious diseases, and only one or two out of ten survived.

The so-called spell casting was mostly the result of abandoning the animals that died of the plague on the water source, or deceiving the soldiers to eat them by mistake.

Yan Qingqiang calmed down, and quickly took action: first, he immediately sent ten express horses to Xucheng to invite Zhang Zhongjing; Set up camp on the open plains, set up some separate camps as a sick evacuation workshop, and isolate all the sick and soldiers who had been in contact with the sick. The dead must be buried quickly and must not be approached; Cloth and silk are temporarily used as gauze masks. In addition to medical herbal diagnostic tools, they bring smoked things such as mugwort, and Yan Qing, who is more familiar with epidemic prevention methods and has peaches in hand, can take them personally.

Yan Qing's series of responses were as fast as lightning, and while Lu Bu was dazzled by what he saw, he couldn't get in a word.It wasn't until finally realizing that he was going to go to the epidemic site in person as a matter of course, Lu Bu grabbed him by the back collar with a livid face, lifted him up unceremoniously and roared: "The epidemic is extremely dangerous, how can Chong Guang go there in person? !"
