No one knew where the master's ancestral home was. When the master came here, he was alone. When people in Xiangyang mentioned the Wei family, they would point to the direction of the academy. No one else was born, and there was no one else with this surname.
Therefore, when this flag is raised in the city, something big must have happened, and it must be related to you, sir. How come there was no movement yesterday
Anyway, I can’t get to the Yellow Turban Army for a while, so let’s go back to the city first.
Having made up my mind and tied up my package, I returned to Xiangyang City feeling like a fool.
The city was crowded with people and there was a lot of noise. I saw Zisheng and asked him what was going on. He was excited: "Zirui, do you know? Something big happened in the city. The emperor issued an imperial decree... Why are you carrying a bag... Are you going out... Did you just come back?..."
My head suddenly became big. I thought it was a mistake to ask Zisheng, but my sister taught me to be polite to others, so I smiled, but in my heart I was imagining pinching Zisheng's neck. But the guy didn't know the danger and kept talking.
"There are so many words that I can't express... Are you leaving home or going home... The government troops can no longer be stopped... The leader of the Yellow Turban bandits in Nanyang is Zhang Mancheng, he may attack Luoyang... Have you seen Zishe... Luoyang West Courtyard no longer sells official positions... It's time to raise horses..."
In my mind, I had dragged him to the well and thrown him in, and I had thrown a few huge rocks down, and as I thought about it…
"Zi Rui, what are you laughing at?"
"Uh, nothing? Go on."
"The army of Lord Zhu has been surrounded in Wancheng. There is no new news about Huangfu Song leading his troops to rescue... Zirui, look, Zishe is here..."
Thank God, the savior finally came. I listened to Zisheng talking about this and that for half an hour, but nothing important came up. He even talked about stir-frying spinach and pork together and serving it in a bowl.
"Zi She, what's wrong?"
"Sir, you have become the governor of Jingzhou. The imperial edict requires you to recruit soldiers on your own to destroy the Yellow Turban Army, mainly the Yellow Turban bandits under Zhang Mancheng in Nanyang."
Zishe is so cute, I like this about him, simple and clear.
"How could this happen?" I was indeed very curious.
"have no idea."
"I know,… "
"Where is the teacher now?" It's too dangerous. I can't let Zisheng tell me. I would rather go to the prefect to ask.
"In the prefect's mansion, he's talking to the prefect." Zishe also rushed to tell me.
"Let's go." I pulled Ziwa and hurried away.
"Wait for me..." Zisheng called behind us.
"Then you hurry up..." We ran like thieves until we reached the governor's mansion, sure that the nagging guy wouldn't be here for a while. We took a breath and found that many classmates were waiting outside the mansion. Of course, we couldn't just go in, so we had to wait outside and have a quarrel.
"There are so many guards in front of the prefect's mansion. It's impossible to go in without permission. I don't know if I can go in as your student."
"Do you have a bruise on your head? Just because you are the teacher's student, I let you in. Isn't that too childish? Today, Master Wei is the governor of Jingzhou. He just lets you in and interferes with his official duties. I will beat you up with a stick in my heart."
"Master, you won't do this, will you?"
"Then why did the Master ask us to come here?"
I was really surprised that it was the teacher who asked them to come. I thought that as students they came to support the new governor, but I didn't expect that the teacher seemed to want to give a lecture to everyone.
"Hey, Zirui, where have you been? The teacher told us to gather here last night, and we went to look for you, but you weren't home?"
"Uh, I have something to do outside."
"What do you want?"
"What's your business?"
…
"We have been waiting outside for two hours. Does anyone have a plan to get into the mansion?"
"I have a plan. Let's set fire to the back of the mansion. We will all make a lot of noise. When there is a big commotion in the mansion, we will grab the fire extinguishers and rush in together. No one will stop us."
"Not good. If the fire is not big, there will be no chaos in the mansion. If the fire is so big that we cannot control it and it hurts you, the government will not kill you, but we will not let you live."
…
They fought for a long time as usual, but to no avail.
"Zi Rui, why haven't I heard your idea yet?"
"I have a plan! But what if my plan succeeds?"
"No, what should I do?"
"I will host a banquet, and I invite all the brothers to come."
"Okay, if you succeed, we'll each treat you to a feast."
I was so impressed with myself for getting dozens of meals so easily. Actually, I had an idea long ago, but I just wanted to see what ridiculous ideas everyone would come up with. Sure enough, I was laughing all the time.
I left the group and went to make preparations. First, I changed into a short jacket with a front opening that was commonly worn by ordinary people. Fortunately, I had it in my bag, so I didn't have to look for one that fit me. I went to Uncle Rong, who sold pork, and bought a piece of pork. I also soaked the blood from his pigs in pig niang and put it in a bag. Uncle Rong was of course very surprised. Before he asked me anything, he saw me take out a sharp knife from his meat shop, cut a hole in the clothes on my shoulder, and left. I think Uncle Rong would not understand, because I had not thought of all the details. Then, I came to a secluded alley, and seeing that there was no one around, I put the piece of meat on my shoulder, sprinkled the pig blood on my face and shoulders, then pressed my shoulder with my right hand and took out the handkerchief that my sister brought me from the bag with my left hand. I dipped my fingers in the pig blood and wrote some words. I put it in my arms and said with a smile: "This plan is done."
