Lu Su led the guards and left in a hurry.
Lu Su stepped out of the door of the post house with his front foot, and Yin Kuang and Pan Longtao entered the post house with his back foot. When they were in the front yard of the post house, the two of them saw the small forest that had been burned by the fire and one or two dark houses. They couldn’t help but look at each other and thought in their hearts: “Sure enough, we were attacked. ”
When the two of them walked into the main hall of the post house, they happened to meet Zhuge Liang, who was returning from the backyard. He was already a member of Class 1237. Yin Kuang and Pan Longtao hurriedly went up to salute. Of course, they also apologized: “My subordinate is incompetent, please punish me by the military advisor.” Neither of them elaborated on the original situation, but directly confessed their guilt. In the army, this is the wisest approach.
Zhuge Liang smiled and said, “What’s the crime? If you hadn’t entangled the enemy, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have been able to escape the disaster. Not only did you have no fault, you actually made merit.” After saying that, Zhuge Liang swept Tang Rouyu’s crowd with his feather fan and said with a smile, “There’s more. You guys. If you hadn’t been guarding this inn, I’m afraid I would be like that Wu Marquis, with nowhere to rest tonight. It’s been an eventful night, and I think you’re tired too, so go down and rest. I know my credit for today’s work.”
Zhuge Liang spoke, and everyone naturally bowed and retreated.
After Yin Kuang, Tang Rouyu and others retreated, the smile on Zhuge Liang’s face gradually dissipated, and even the confident smile he had always worn disappeared. Then a touch of worry climbed onto his cheeks, so that the feather fan in his hand Forgot to fan. Later, Zhuge Liang came to the backyard and took out a lifelike wooden bird from his sleeve. Then, without knowing what he did, the little wooden bird flew up and disappeared into the night sky in the blink of an eye.
“Military Advisor” A man wearing a wooden mask knelt on the ground with his head lowered, as if waiting for Zhuge Liang’s reprimand. Zhuge Liang glanced at him and said, “Can you explain to me why our people came here to assassinate me.” The man in the wooden mask lowered his head further, “Please ask the military to atone. I don’t know the reason for this. . However, please listen to my explanation, military advisor.”
Zhuge Liang said: “So, they acted privately?”
The man in the wooden mask said: “That’s right. But my subordinates have just approached them. Their explanation is quite reasonable.”
Zhuge Liang smiled and said: “Could it be that he wants to put the blame on Cao Cao and then prompt us to form an alliance with Sun Quan? ?”
“Yes, yes.”
“Hmph! I think they are seeking personal revenge. Since they are hiding around Zhou Yu and Sun Quan, they must know that Zhou Yu is inviting me to a banquet tonight, so they dare to act so wantonly. Their real target is Yin Kuang They are the right ones. They burned down the post hou
