Chapter 388 Yuwen Chengdu: I Want to Go to the Three Kingdoms! 【Ask for Monthly Ticket】

Li Yan?

Upon hearing this name, Pang De immediately took out his mobile phone from his pocket, clicked on the Nanyang talent information file, and asked eagerly:

"Do you have a cousin?"

"My name is Zhengfang... does the general know the clerk?"

Yes, everything in the information is correct... Pang De immediately picked up the walkie-talkie, tuned to Lu Bu's channel, and began to announce the good news:

"Reporting to Marquis Wen, I met Li Yan in Huyang County."

Lu Bu was overjoyed:

"Damn, I haven't found him after searching for so long in Wancheng. I didn't expect him to be in the county... You first stabilize him and bring him to Wancheng, and then send someone to take him to Chang'an. If you have family members, take him with you."

"Here!"

Li Yan still doesn't know that his life is about to hit the bottom. At the moment, he is just a minor official in the county. He has no official status and is not qualified to promote filial piety and integrity. He doesn't understand why the general in front of him is so excited.

He stared at Pound's cell phone and walkie-talkie, wanting to ask what they were, but worried that it would be too abrupt.

Pound, on the other hand, has no official airs:

"Li Yan, how old are you this year?"

"Sixteen years old."

"Becoming a subordinate at such a young age?"

In the late Han Dynasty, although there were many people who got married and started a business at the age of fifteen, ordinary talented people would not choose to become an official until they were twenty years old, rather than working as a small official in the county government.

Li Yan cupped his hands and replied:

"The family is poor, but the villain is somewhat literate. It happened that the county government was recruiting subordinate officials, so the villain made a living here."

No wonder he had such a strong desire for power later on and liked to live in a big house. It was because he was afraid of poverty... Pound then asked:

"The hussar general Lu Wenhou of the time wanted to invite you to Chang'an so that you no longer have to be a subordinate. Are you willing?"

Li Yan's eyes widened, and his fair face was full of shock:

"The Cavalry General knows the villain's name?"

"A god gave him a list of future ministers of the country, and your name, Li Zhengfang, is on the list... Please consider whether you should stay here and continue to be a minor official who welcomes people to and from them, or move. Go to Chang'an to show your ambitions."

Do you still need to consider this?

Li Yan immediately bowed deeply:

"I am willing to go to Chang'an, but the journey is far and there is no expense involved..."

"I will send a detachment of cavalry to escort you. Who else is at home?"

"There is a sick old mother... I don't need the general to escort her. Just give me a horse and a gun, and I can take the old mother to Chang'an by myself."

After all, he is a general who can fight with Old Huang Zhong for fifty rounds without deciding the outcome. Li Yan is confident that there will be no problems on the road.

Pound smiled and said:

"In the future, you and I will be ministers in the same palace. If we don't send each other off, it would be too rude."

One of them was born as a domestic servant, and the other was born as a petty official. Neither of them was a noble family, so they could not take the path of being filial and honest to become officials. They were considered outliers among officials, and they really should get closer to each other.

Li Yan saluted again:

"Thank you, General!"

On the other side, Lu Bu reached a pass and asked everyone to rest where they were:

"Lao Zhang, when will your Liuwei Dihuang Pills be ready?"

"Don't be anxious, Marquis Wen. This medicine requires dialectical analysis and cannot be achieved overnight... We will arrive in Chang'an soon. Even if Marquis Wen starts taking it today, it will not be effective in a short time."

Lu Bu waved his hand helplessly:

"How many times have I told you that this is for someone else? A tall and powerful general like me needs this thing? You guys should rest first while I go to the real world to report the news that Li Yan has been found. "

He walked through the door and disappeared.

Although he had seen it many times, Ji Ling still couldn't believe his eyes:

"It disappeared out of thin air in an instant, it was truly a miracle!"

After saying that, he stood up with his three-pointed two-edged sword, intending to patrol the pass to see if there were any flaws.

Although in the original work, he was picked up by Lu Bu, beaten by Guan Yu, and finally died in the hands of Zhang Fei, Ji Ling was still a general who could command an army of 500,000 people, and he still had real abilities.

The people who could leave their names in the late Han Dynasty were not simple. They just met a stronger demon king in the era of gods and immortals fighting.

In the real world, Lu Bu turned up the cold air of the air conditioner and muttered:

"There is no air conditioning in the Three Kingdoms. How will we spend the summer in the future?"

Yuwen Chengdu was watching online classes in his study. Hearing this, he smiled and said:

"Just build a power plant. Once the power is stable and a batch of home appliances are purchased, the three countries can enter the era of electrification."

After blowing on the air conditioner for a while, Lu Bu ate two more ice creams, then picked up his cell phone and called Li Yu:

"Brother Xian, Pang De found Li Yan in Huyang!"

After hearing the news, Li Yu, who was washing dishes in the kitchen, quickly put down his work and asked hurriedly:

"Is he an official now?"

"Only fifteen years old, working as a clerk in Huyang County Government."

Li Yu came to Zhou Ruotong's study, looked at the map on the wall, and found that the so-called Huyang refers to the current Tanghe County, which is indeed not far from Nanyang.

The appearance of Li Yan once again gave us a prefect with strong governance capabilities.

If the top ten prefects of the late Han Dynasty were selected, workshop director Du Ji would definitely rank in the top three, or even higher, and Li Yan, the Jianwei prefect, would most likely be in the top five.

An all-rounder who knows how to govern a place while also being civil and military is definitely worth cultivating.

During his tenure as the governor of Qianwei, there were two bandit rebellions under his rule. Li Yan did not wait for reinforcements from Chengdu, so he personally led his soldiers and killed the enemy generals neatly and quelled the rebellion.

In terms of governance, he rebuilt large-scale water conservancy projects such as Dujiangyan and Liushuimen, which not only solved the common people's flooding problems, but also affected future generations. Even people in the Southern Song Dynasty praised Li Yan for his water control that benefited the people for thousands of years.

However, compared with Du Ji, Li Yan's shortcomings are also obvious.

Greedy for power and money, he has done things that took care of his own family at the expense of everyone else several times. In addition, he was aloof and arrogant, and could not deal with Zhuge Liang, so he had no one of his own in Xishu.

When he was demoted to a commoner, no one spoke for him.

These shortcomings may be related to Li Yan's background. He was a minor official when Liu Biao governed Jingzhou. It was not until Cao Cao captured Jingzhou more than ten years later that he only became the magistrate of Zigui County.

This is the reason for the poor background. If you can't promote filial piety and integrity, you can't officially enter the official position. Even if you are quite talented, you can only be a small county magistrate.

When his colleagues surrendered to Cao Cao one after another, he abandoned his official position and went to Liu Zhang. He was still a minor official until he followed Liu Bei, and then he came to prominence.

After taking Chengdu, Li Yan, Fazheng, Zhuge Liang, Yi Ji, and Liu Ba formulated the Shu Ke, which is the legal provisions.

When Liu Bei was entrusted with Guogu in Baidi City, Li Yan and Zhuge Liang both served as important ministers in charge of entrusting him.

It's a pity that the two didn't get along and many opportunities were wasted.

Now that I have the opportunity to intervene from the age of fifteen, I should be able to correct Li Yan in time, and maybe even become friends with Brother Liang.

Putting away his thoughts, Li Yu said:

"When Li Yan arrives in Chang'an, give him more guidance. If Lu Zhi is willing, accept him as his disciple, and then find some great scholars to teach him filial piety and integrity."

Li Yan has no background, so he is sensitive and has strong self-esteem.

If he had made up for these shortcomings when he was young, had a great scholar as his teacher, and had scribes to help promote filial piety and integrity, I think he would have been more cheerful.

Lu Bu agreed:

"Don't worry, dear brother, we will arrange everything properly and we will not repeat the same mistakes as in the original work."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Ruotong, who had changed into a cheongsam again, walked into the study:

"Whose phone number is it?"

"This is from Lu Bu. Pang De found Li Yan in Tanghe and will send him to Chang'an to study soon... My wife, your cheongsam looks really nice. Let me feel how the material is."

Zhou Ruotong: "..."

Are you looking for materials? I'm embarrassed to point it out to you.

She kissed Li Yu on the face:

"Go and wash the dishes quickly. I'll let Xiaochan take a nap and then go to the examination room when she wakes up."

"Good wife."

Li Yu went to the kitchen and washed the dishes, poured a large bowl of shelled mung beans into the pressure cooker, added two pieces of rock sugar, then added water to cover the lid, and boiled a pot of mung bean paste.

Let it cool down later, put it in a thermos cup, and the little girl can drink it when she leaves the examination room.

As soon as the mung bean paste was boiled, Mu Guiying came over and asked in a low voice:

"Husband, can I have a taste of it for Fairy Little Chan?"

Li Yu pointed to the small pot of mung bean paste hanging next to him and said:

"This is for you. Let it cool before you drink it. It's hot now."

"Thank you, husband!"

Mu Guiying became more reckless, hugged Li Yu's neck, kissed him, and then ran back to her room as if running away.

At 1:20 in the afternoon, the family went downstairs and drove to the examination room.

In order to win favor for Diao Chan, Mu Guiying also changed into a yellow embroidered cheongsam. Her fair and delicate legs were looming, giving the Queen a different kind of charm.

When Diao Chan walked into the examination room with her stationery bag, Li Yu asked the two beauties in cheongsam beside him for instructions:

"Should we keep waiting, or should we find a place to sit for a while?"

The school gate was bustling with parents picking up candidates. Coupled with the hot weather, many people were sweating.

Li Yu led Zhou Ruotong and Mu Guiying through the crowd to a coffee shop, ordered a few drinks, and waited silently for the candidates to leave the examination room.

In the study room of the B&B, Yuwen Chengdu saw off Lu Bu and was about to continue reading when Li Shimin walked in humming a little tune.

The little guy first connected his phone to the Internet, then checked his WeChat balance to confirm that the money was still there, and then he breathed a sigh of relief:

"Big man, do you want a drink? I'll treat you to it!"

Hum hum, it’s more than 60,000 yuan. I’m afraid you don’t know what so much money means in the real world.

Yuwen Chengdu pointed to the water dispenser not far away:

"Juice drinks are not as good as drinking water. Historically, you died at a young age because of unhealthy diet. Coupled with irregular meals, it is easy to get chronic diseases."

Li Shimin:? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

I offer you a drink with good intentions, but you don’t appreciate it, right?

Just as he was about to refute, Yuwen Chengdu said again:

"You can ask me if you insist. After all, my body is in perfect shape until I die. There is nothing wrong with me."

Good guy, I bought you a drink and you actually mocked me twice... Xiao Shimin was so angry that he didn't treat him anymore. He just sat on the sofa and sent a message to Li Yu to talk about business:

"Sir, we plan to build a pass in the valley deep behind the mountain. What do we need to do?"

After several days of investigation, everyone in Fengming Village found that the back mountain was very tight and the army could not pass through at all. Only at the end of the valley was a smooth road.

After discussion, everyone felt that it would be more appropriate to build a pass. It just so happened that there was a coal mine a few miles outside the pass. In the future, coal could be transported through the valley.

Li Yu replied:

"You need to survey the landform first to confirm that the water will not rise during the rainy season, then choose the style of pass you want to build and start digging the foundation. Once the foundation is dug, you can build walls or pour concrete."

Li Shimin wrote it down, checked the shape of the pass, and selected a few that were more suitable. He planned to do preliminary preparations first and then build it.

After chatting, Li Shimin glanced at Yuwen Chengdu who was studying hard, silently opened the WeChat applet, found a cold drink shop in the scenic spot, and bought two cups of four-season fruit tea and two cups of ice milk tea.

When choosing the sweetness, the little guy thought of Yuwen Chengdu and chose not all sugar, but 50% sugar.

This time I must live to be seventy or eighty, and I will make the stupid man angry!

After choosing a drink, the little guy thought that Xiuhe and others were still on the first floor, so he added a few more drinks, and then placed an order.

Seeing the hundreds of dollars disappearing in an instant, the little guy felt heartbroken.

Small money is spent too fast like a tornado... I originally wanted to buy some more fried chicken and live a happy life in a fat house for a day, but when I saw the deduction record, Xiao Shimin felt so distressed that he didn't dare to place an order.

Not long after, the owner of the cold drink shop in the scenic spot brought drinks.

The little guy first went to give Xiuhe and the others a drink, then came up with the remaining four drinks and placed them in front of Yuwen Chengdu in a very grand manner:

"We are also the emperor after all. I will treat you as I say, and I will never lie!"

Yuwen Chengdu placed two cups of milk tea and one fruit tea in front of him, and handed one of the cups of fruit tea with 50% sugar to Li Shimin:

"Drink less, I'm doing you a favor."

Li Shimin: "!!!!!!!!!"

Ahhhhh, you bad guy, the iced milk tea that I have been craving for so long was just taken away from me!

Do you still see me as the emperor in your eyes?

Oh, by the way, we are not in the same faction, so that’s okay.

Li Shimin's face fell, and he took a big sip of the Four Seasons Fruit Tea:

"You ride a bicycle with me in the afternoon. I want to go buy egg-filled pancakes at the gate of the scenic spot."

"Okay, I'll go with you."

"If someone bullies me, you have to protect me!"

"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, no one can hurt you."

Okay, I forgive your disrespect... Li Shimin happily drank fruit tea, thinking that Wu Song was at the Hanfu Factory down the mountain, and made a warm suggestion:

"How about we go see Brother Erlang to play in the afternoon?"

"No, my husband asked me to stay at the B&B. I can't leave for too long. If you want to go play, I can call a scenic spot shuttle bus to take you there."

Li Shimin thought for a while and decided to give up.

Last time he went to the Hanfu Factory to play, he was surrounded by Wen Jing and others, who pinched his face and raped him repeatedly. He finally managed to escape, but he couldn't throw himself into a trap again today.

Yuwen Chengdu returned to studying, and Li Shimin also turned on the computer next to him, browsed the hot news, and checked the details of the pass construction.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Yuwen Chengdu's online class ended.

Li Shimin was holding half a watermelon and chewing his lips while eating:

"I didn't expect Brother Fei to be engaged soon, and I didn't know when I would get married to Sister Wu Guo... Big man, were you married before you came here?"

"We have an engagement. We originally planned to get married as soon as spring comes. But now that we are here, the engagement is over."

Li Shimin became excited when he heard that Yuwen was single in Chengdu:

"I really envy you. You live so transparently at such a young age. Unlike us, we have to worry about pleasing our girlfriends all day long. Alas, love is really hard!"

Yu Wencheng ignored him, which made Li Shimin a little frustrated and took the initiative to change the topic:

"Big man, which world do you plan to go to?"

"Three Kingdoms!"

Yuwen Chengdu did not choose the World of Water Margin where Liu Guanzhang was, but instead chose the World of Three Kingdoms, which surprised Li Shimin:

"Why?"

"I want to go to a place where no one has heard of me, be an ordinary general, establish some achievements, and do something for the people in the book."

Just your phoenix-wing boring machine is destined to be anything but ordinary... Li Shimin put a spoonful of watermelon into his mouth:

"Uncle Huang is still waiting for you to help, but my husband said that you can go anywhere, and he respects your opinions... Do you really want to go to the Three Kingdoms World?"

Yuwen Chengdu nodded:

"After studying for a while, I will learn all the knowledge, and after spending the Mid-Autumn Festival with my husband and wife, I will leave the real world."

The Mid-Autumn Festival is a festival for reunions. The only family members left in Yuwen Chengdu are those staying at the B&B, so I want to leave after the festival.

When Li Shimin heard this, he was not in the mood to eat watermelon anymore:

"Can't you leave after the New Year?"

Yuwen Chengdu smiled and said:

"I'm afraid I'll be late. The battle has already been fought by them... Don't worry, no matter where I go, I will never forget you. I will write to you when I'm not busy. You should also pay attention to your health and listen to my husband."

Realizing that the topic was getting more and more sad, Li Shimin quickly stopped:

"Come on, come with me to buy egg-filled pancakes. I'll treat you to whatever you want to eat."

The little guy covered the watermelon with plastic wrap and put it back in the refrigerator. Then he rode his children's bicycle and left the B&B side by side with Yuwen Chengdu who was riding a road bike, all the way downhill to the foot of the mountain.

The two bought egg-filled pancakes, fried skewers, fruit pickles, snowflake cheese, fried ice and other snacks. They also bought folding fans, bracelets and other souvenirs.

After returning to the B&B with a full load, Li Shimin found that the balance was missing by several hundred yuan.

Wow, brother Erlang, if you don’t give me the copyright fees, our little cash in the Sui and Tang Dynasties will be spent!

The two of them were sitting in the study, and just as they were about to enjoy the delicious food, Yue Fei walked in:

"You two are so happy, sir, haven't you come back yet?"

"He's accompanying his second wife to take the exam. He won't be coming to the B&B for the past two days. What's wrong, Brother Fei, is there something wrong?"

Yue Fei nodded, drank a glass of cold water, and then said:

"The caravan of the Cao family has returned, bringing a lot of horses with them. My brother-in-law robbed them all, but unfortunately, several leaders of the caravan ran away, so we couldn't get any information from the foreign race."

I didn't expect the opponent to be so timid. As soon as Zhang Fei led the cavalry to charge, several leaders fled in panic, with no intention of resisting at all.

Yuwen Chengdu asked:

"Who is this caravan trading with?"

"The Liao Dynasty, my brother-in-law also found a letter from the Liao Dynasty leader to the head of the Cao family in the spoils. Now he is looking for someone who can read Khitan characters in the city...My uncle asked me to ask you, sir, how to deal with this matter?"
