[Three Kingdoms] The daily struggle of female counsellors

"Let's warm up the wine"

Guo Jin leaned back on the gilded soft cushion behind her, and the brief burst of guilt after hearing Guo Jia's name barely dissipated.

In this era, people generally like to drink warm wine, which not only does not hurt the spleen and stomach, but also has the effect of health care, and it tastes sweet and delicious.Guo Jin hadn't tasted it yet, thinking that she had been so stimulated just now, she should take the opportunity to drink some fortifying wine to suppress her shock.

Qingtong bowed his head in promise, walked to the cage in the back row on his knees, and carefully took out a delicate wine warmer with the pattern of a prisoner cow.This vessel is in the shape of a three-hoofed foot, with a supporting plate underneath, a charcoal fire built into the plate, water in the belly of the wine warmer, and a wine glass on top.

Thinking of how the ancients worked so hard just to get a glass of wine, Guo Jin couldn't help shaking her head and sighing, she casually drank the sake that Qingtong handed over, and then let him warm another glass with no enthusiasm.

A rich person should enjoy his life well, and he might travel back one day and live the miserable life of his bald-headed immortal girl again.

I really don't want to work hard.

Even though she was thinking so, Guo Jin took advantage of the time to warm the wine to get some clues from Qingtong intentionally or unintentionally.

First, it is now the fourth year of Zhongping.

With her slightly poor historical knowledge, Guo Jin can only judge that there is still some time before Dong Zhuo enters Beijing.As for the specific year, she still needs to wait until some well-known major events occur before she can make an accurate judgment.

Second, Guo Tu is currently serving in Yinxiu, the prefect of Yingchuan.

This piece of information is not very useful at the moment, the most important thing to her is the third one - her cousin Guo Jiaxu is two years older than her.

Guo Jia was born in 170, that is to say, "I" was born in 172. If the original owner is 16 years old, it is now 188 AD.

If her calculations are correct, it will only be more than a year before Dong Zhuo enters the capital.

Guo Jin thought about the scene in the near future, full of mourners, cannibals and licking bones, and the weak wine in her hand was even less fragrant. She sighed, handed back the glass, and wanted to turn around and close her eyes for a nap.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the end of the road in the east, where the dark clouds merged, cold and chilling, and occasionally a few winter birds were startled to circle around, before sinking into the unfathomable darkness again.

"The sky is cloudy", Qingtong wrapped a blanket around her, and said warmly: "Young Master's body has not recovered, you should take a good rest."

Guo Jin frowned, and a wave suddenly appeared on his usually calm face, "Be careful!"

As soon as Guo Jin finished speaking, a cloud of dust suddenly rose up in the east of the team, and in a blink of an eye, a burly figure of dozens of riders appeared in the dark.That group of people was rushing like thunder, they rode their horses wildly, and within a moment they were blocked in front of Guo's team.

They wear red linen long clothes, pure-colored sheepskin on their shoulders, bone ornaments on their waists, and three-color hemp ropes on their heads braided into braids.Although the description is similar to that of the Han people, it can be seen at a glance that they must be foreigners.

The strong man who looked like the leader was riding a Li Ma, and his physique was magnificent. The dozens of men riding behind him also had thick arms and thick shoulders, with fierce faces.Just like seeing a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, the foreigners pulled out the long knives around their waists with a clang, and waved them excitedly in their hands, laughing rough and looking fierce, as if they were about to enter the body in an instant and kill Guo Jin and his party grind it into powder.

Xu was forced by the opponent's coercion, all the horses under Guo Jin sneered and shrank their tails. If it wasn't for Yu Nu's courage to hold the reins, it is estimated that these horses would have turned against each other long ago.

What the hell, foreign bandits? !

Really afraid of something, Guo Jin took a deep breath, his hands were already covered with hot sweat, but his face was still thundered, Qing Tong seemed to have discovered something, and whispered in her ear: "Master, it is Di people!"

Di people?If she remembers correctly, Jia Xu, Cao Cao's counselor, had the experience of being blocked by Di people in his early years.It is said that he met the rebellious Di people on the way back to his hometown, and dozens of people who accompanied him were all captured by the Di people.

Jia Xu falsely claimed that he was a descendant of Duan Jiong, and by virtue of Duan Gong's great reputation in the West, he was able to escape and leave a small life.Due to the great amount of communication with Han people, Di people generally speak two languages, Di language and Chinese.

Before she could clear her mind, the Di people in front of her rode their horses up again and surrounded them on all sides. The leader of the Di people raised his sword and stepped forward alone, only to hear the howling wind accompanied by the cold light, and the middle-aged man slashed past , Straight to Guo Jin's throat, the blade was only an inch away from her delicate throat.

Qingtong was obviously terrified, covering his mouth with his hands at this moment, desperately suppressing his sobs, if he wasn't afraid of this person's power, he would have already plopped and begged for mercy.

Guo Jin's mind went blank for a moment, and after feeling the real coolness on her neck, she became inexplicably quiet for some reason.

The leader of the Di people disdained to cut such a weak nobleman of the family with his hands. It was just a show to chop off with a knife, but who knew that the seemingly weak and thin young man had no fear at all, and his face was calm. Wu Bo, it seems that the one who is now a mermaid is not himself at all.

The leader of the Di people became inexplicably interested, and looked up and down at the young man in front of him.Dressed in white clothes, boots, and a belt around the waist, although there are no precious jade ornaments, but it is dignified and handsome, and the clear eyes sweep across the heart like a glimpse of a ghost, making you feel that the pearls and jade are on your side, and you are afraid that it will be dusty.

Suddenly thinking of another Tuchen boy with a kind face and a dark heart, the leader of the Di people sneered, and spoke condescendingly and arrogantly: "Young man with yellow hair, why are you not afraid?"

Guo Jin raised her eyes slightly, her expression was still unclear, but her voice was calm and clear, without any panic.

"I saw that the strong man Kong Wu is powerful, and his dragon and phoenix are beautiful. It must be because of bad luck for a while, so he has to make a living by this."

As he said that, seeing the raised eyebrows of the man, he calmly answered: "Although I am not a noble man, I do have some gold, silver and jade wares. Why don't you just give them to the strong man, and hope that the strong man will prosper in the future."

This may be the first time for the leader of the Di people to see such a "sensible" victim. This person not only gave a thoughtful explanation for his robbery, but also made golden steps for him, allowing him to ride a donkey downhill without bloodshed It will be able to return with a full load.

Good too.

Perhaps because of his calm mood, the leader of the Di people once again looked at the young man in front of him. For a moment, he only felt that he was well-groomed, graceful in behavior, and well-mannered in his speech. He was worthy of being the son of a noble family.

Withdrawing the sharp knife on the snowy skin of the young man in white, the leader of the Di people waved his hand, as if signaling to his subordinates not to be bloody, and then said loudly: "That's it, I thank you, sir."

Guo Jin curled her lips slightly, her smile was neither excessive nor cold, she turned to Qingtong who was curled up behind her and said, "Why don't you go soon?"

The young boy woke up like a dream, hurriedly sobbed and climbed out of the carriage, and called several servants accompanying him to help carry the gold, silver and jade objects in the carriage. Chopping away, the sandalwood box cracked and shattered, revealing the gold, silver, jade and emeralds in it, which was so dazzling that it almost scared Guo Jin's dog eyes.

Guo Jin: Heartache is always so unexpected.

Even so, she did not forget the ferocious disposition of the robbers at this time, and it was commonplace to backtrack.Her mind raced rapidly. It doesn't matter if she is now dressed in men's clothing. The key is that there are female relatives like Qingtong in the team. If this group of Di people did not succeed in her tricks, they would kidnap the female relatives instead. It is hard to imagine what they will suffer. disaster.

Thinking of Jia Xu's allusion, Guo Jin had an idea, or else he would follow Jia Xu's example and say that he is the son of Yinxiu, the prefect of Yingchuan?

After all, a strong dragon does not overwhelm a local snake. On the land of Yingchuan, no matter how high the sky is and the emperor is far away, these rough Di people will always give the local eunuch a little bit of trouble.

Unexpectedly, after those Di people verified the gold and silver, they tied the boxes firmly on the horse's back, and in the blink of an eye, they all stepped into the dust and went away.

Guo Jin: "..."

Only take money, don't hurt others, don't rob women and children, don't take plunder.

Could this be the legendary green forest hero?Aren't they stealing from the rich and giving to the poor?

Seeing those Di people going away with billowing smoke and dust, all the boy servants all around fell to their knees and said that their guards were not good enough to frighten the young master.

Guo Jin just rolled her eyes, where are you poorly guarded?You obviously gave up resistance!

and many more……

Guo Jin connected the events before and after today, and suddenly she was blessed with an unbelievable thought—her cheap daddy and these gangsters are not in the same group, are they?

Guo Xi wasted so much time trying to marry her off as soon as possible, could it be that he really found a good man who is rare in a thousand years for her?

Guo Jin: I suddenly felt a little bit moved.

Telling everyone to get up, Guo Jin touched his neck that was almost bleeding, Qingtong struggled to climb into the carriage, and said cautiously: "My lord, this world is difficult and dangerous, and now there is no gold and silver, why don't you go back home first? "

As soon as these words came out, Qing Tong hurriedly raised his head to look at him with flickering eyes. The young man opposite him was probably tired, and his sitting posture was more relaxed, but his eyes were warmly wrapped around him, just like the sun, looking like him. Yun, there seems to be nothing more eye-catching than this young man in this vast world.

Qingtong lowered his head spinelessly, and Guo Jin closed his eyes again, "Is there any loss of clothes and utensils?"

Qing Tong was slightly startled, then shook his head: "Never".

Guo Jin asked again: "Did the horse and horse attendants break down?"

Qing Tong respectfully said: "No."

Guo Jin smiled: "Since that's the case, why do you want to go back?"

Qingtong understood, knowing that the young master has always had his own ideas, so he just nodded in agreement.

Guo Jin rubbed her sore forehead, and said: "Hurry up and count your belongings, and send one or two slaves back to the vacant cart. The cart is easy to follow, so don't miss the hour."

"If it's later, I'll wait... I won't be able to catch up with my brother's dinner."

Qingtong hurriedly responded to his orders, and the chariots and horses set off slowly again, continuing towards the far east.

·

When he received the letter from his uncle, Guo Jia was playing Go with one hand on his cheek.

He lived in the countryside for a long time, except for a few simple greetings with his uncle on the day of his mother's death, he didn't have a deep impression of this relative.

But obviously, this uncle didn't think so.

Guo Xi never discussed it with himself, so he made up his mind to send his son here to recuperate.Not only that, but he also expressed his concerns about this matter earnestly in the letter, hoping that Guo Jia can take good care of his young son.

Guo Jia smiled and looked at the visitor, only to see that the man was frightened, and hurriedly moved in two boxes of "rich rewards" with Jiahe patterns from outside the door.

No matter what, you have to earn some money for your wife.

But what if it can accomplish multiple things at once?Guo Jia made a lot of good friends in his early years, and he once showed kindness to Bai Yu, a Di man in exile.

Although the nature of the exile has not changed much.

Guo Jia thought, the current world is so messy, if there is a disaster on the road, it is also a common thing.

Uncle's youngest son, he also had a relationship once, but he was a young boy with no ambitions, rich and well-off, cowardly and cowardly, he was probably scared out of his wits when he saw the brutal scene of bandits blocking the way, and went home I avoided disaster.

If he asks Bai Yu to help scare this cousin, he will only grab gold and silver and not hurt anyone.I just used my tongue, and got two boxes of rewards, and the brothers Diren would not be in vain. This cousin even went home to avoid disaster, so as to save my uncle from worrying about it.

Wouldn't it be wonderful to have such three perfections?

That's what Guo Jia thought before his door was knocked restrainedly and politely.
