Three Kingdoms: From Hulaoguan to Global Hegemony

Chapter 136 Accidentally Obtained Information During Small Chat
"Miss Zou, don't get me wrong. When I said that I want you to cooperate with me as my wife for a few days, I really only meant it literally!" In order to let Zou Huimin put down his guard, Liu Yu got up and carried the one that was snatched from Dong Bai. persian cat.

"Didn't you say that there are mice, ask Xiaobai to accompany you, and there will be no more mice dare to enter the house!"

It may be that cats like the smell of beautiful women, Liu Yu took the initiative to run to Zou Huimin as soon as he put it down.

"What a cute kitten!" Zou Huimin bent over to pick it up, and her nervousness eased after being distracted.

"You really won't do anything to me, will you?" Zou Huimin has been living in Meng's village, and she followed her adoptive father out of the mountain until a year ago. She is naive and doesn't know how to deal with people.

"Of course not. I, Liu Yu, am an upright and honest gentleman. I came here late at night mainly to explain to you something about 'the two of us'. If someone asks you, you won't miss it!"

When Zou Huimin heard that someone would come to question her pretending to be a wife, she became nervous again on the spot.

"Why do people still come to ask about 'us'? Why did Mrs. Yan'er leave Luoyang City suddenly?"

"This..." Liu Yu hesitated for a moment. The fewer people who know about Cai Yan, the safer he is, so he will not tell the truth easily.

"Yan'er went home to visit relatives, but the imperial court has a strict order. In order to ensure that the news of sending troops to suppress the bandits will not be leaked in advance, all Luoyang officials and family members are not allowed to leave the city, so I asked you to pretend to be Yan'er!"

"So that's how it is!" Zou Huimin believed most of it when he heard about the dispatch of troops by the imperial court, and at the same time felt grateful in his heart, "Thanks to you for telling us the news of the dispatch of troops in advance, otherwise the foster father might have to ask for help." It’s a big loss!”

Sure enough, as soon as Mengxin was mentioned, the little beauty's attitude towards Liu Yu became a lot closer.

The two chatted for a while, and Zou Huimin completely let go of his guard.

And out of curiosity, Liu Yu wanted to know if Zou Huimin and Zhang Ji knew each other, because the two were a couple in history.

"By the way, do you know Zhang Ji? It's the Chang'an guard Zhang Ji!"

After Liu Yu knew that she was the righteous daughter of Mengxin, it was hard to imagine that she would get together with Zhang Ji, unless Zou Huimin had a special purpose in marrying him from the beginning.

Unexpectedly, when Liu Yu mentioned Zhang Ji's name, Zou Huimin immediately turned his head away in displeasure, "Don't mention him to me!"

But soon she turned her head in confusion and asked, "Why did you suddenly ask him? Do you know something?"

Of course Liu Yu didn't know the inside story, but he probably guessed it from her reaction, "Hehe, I also heard from Qin Fu that there is some... story between you and that Zhang Ji!"

Liu Yu said it very euphemistically, but his expression seemed to know a lot of details. In fact, he didn't know anything.

Zou Huimin didn't see that Liu Yu was deceiving him, and scolded very embarrassingly: "That Qin Fu is really a gossip, I told you not to mention it anymore, anyway, I will never marry Zhang Ji , and the adoptive father also rejected Guo Dashuai's proposal at that time!"

From Zou Huimin's angry words, Liu Yu accidentally learned a surprising piece of information.

Marshal Guo should be Mrs. Guo, the leader of the Baibo bandits, but Zhang Ji, the guard of Chang'an, has always been in touch with the Baibo bandits.

The Baibo soldiers were actually a branch of the Yellow Turban Army. Later, after the three Zhang Jiao brothers died one after another, Mrs. Guo led her men to occupy Mengjin County.

Baibo bandits claim to have 10,000+ subordinates, but their real combat power is actually very weak, but Liu Yu has always wondered why Mengjin County is very close to the capital, but why these bandits have been allowed to develop freely and continue to grow?

Could it be that the Baibo thief has always been supported by someone?

Could this person be Zhang Ji?
……

The topic was suddenly awkward, so Liu Yu had no choice but to try to comfort her: "Miss Zou will not marry if she doesn't want to. Anyway, your adoptive father didn't agree, so I'm afraid Mrs. Guo will do something!"

Hearing a bosom friend, Zou Huimin, nod firmly, but soon she became depressed again.

"The adoptive father lives in Guo Taijun, and is often excluded by others. I hope this plan can bring him some help after the success."

It seems that Mengxin and his adopted son are not doing well in the Baibo bandits. After all, they are dealing with blood-licking guys. It can only be wishful thinking to rely on those mobs to bring about the death of the Han and overthrow the Qin Dynasty.

Zou Huimin's depression is not only because she feels worthless for her adoptive father, but also because she is worried about her own future.

After all, you have to act according to the eyes of others. Maybe the next time Mrs. Guo mentions marriage again, Meng Xin will not be able to stop her.

Fortunately, she found out about Liu Yu's plan by mistake. If she can win the ambush, at least she won't have to worry about being urged to marry in the near future.

Thinking of this, Zou Huimin felt a little grateful to Liu Yuping.

……

At the same time, in Gucheng County, fifty miles west of Luoyang City, a vigorous figure quickly entered the small courtyard of a farmer.

I only heard a warning voice suddenly sounded from the dark part of the yard, "Who is coming!"

"It's me, Qin Fu!"

As soon as the vigilant heard it, he stopped answering and continued to hide in the dark to watch.

At this time, the light in the room was on, and the door opened, and an old man with gray hair and beard came out.

"See foster father!" Qin Fu bowed his head.

"It's Fu'er who's back, hurry up and talk in the room!" The old man was just convinced, his back was a little bent, but his eyes showed shrewdness.

It turned out that this time, in order to find out the reason why Liu Yu suddenly became stronger, Meng Xin specially brought people to Gucheng County to meet him.

After entering the room, Meng Xin asked a little excitedly: "Have you ever found the fairy medicine in Liu Yu's mansion?"

"This……"

Seeing Qin Fu shaking his head, Meng Xin suddenly became disappointed, "Oh, forget it, you don't need to blame yourself, since it is the fairy medicine, Liu Yu will definitely hide it very carefully, so let Min'er continue to search for it. Return to Hongnong County at dawn."

After finishing speaking, Meng Xin was about to turn off the lights and rest, but heard Qin Fu say: "Little sister...in fact, she was also exposed!"

"what!"

Zou Huimin was brought up by Mengxin, and when she heard that she was exposed in Liu's residence, she immediately became worried. "What you said just now was also exposed. Could it be that both of you were discovered, but you escaped back?"

Qin Fu didn't want the old man to worry, so he quickly told all about his experience in Liu's residence, including Liu Yu's proposal for cooperation.

Afterwards, the room fell into silence, and after about two cups of tea, Meng Xin finally spoke his first words.

"Liu Yu really said that he never took the fairy medicine?"

"Yes foster father, Liu Yu said that he has never seen any fairy medicine, let alone knows that there is a fairy medicine in Qinhuang's Mausoleum!"

In fact, Mengxin has always suspected that Liu Yu might have taken a power-enhancing elixir to suddenly become stronger.

After all, only the patriarch of the Meng family knows the secret of the fairy medicine in the Qinhuangling Mausoleum, and it is impossible for Liu Yu to know this secret.

What's more, the exact location of Qin Huang's Mausoleum has always been a mystery. For four or five hundred years, many elite tomb robbers have tried to find it, but in the end they all failed.

But Meng Xin still didn't give up. He felt that Liu Yu's sudden increase in strength was a lot of strange things, and maybe he got the magic medicine to enhance his strength from some other channels.
