Jian Yong sat alone in the wine shop, drinking sullenly.

In the past two years, he has always walked around the streets of Zhuo County.

Wait until.

The lights in the streets were all out.

not to stay.

I miss my youthful years, and I miss my original chūn time.

He misses his old friend.

He missed Liu Bei.

It's also a bit embarrassing.

At the beginning, Liu Bei recruited Xiangyong in Zhuo County to raise troops to fight against the Yellow Turban, and Jian Yong had already agreed to go with Liu Bei.

It's a pity that his mother suddenly fell seriously ill, so he stayed in Zhuo County.

He made an appointment with Liu Bei to wait for his old mother (shēn) to get better, and then went to find Liu Bei.

It's a pity that people are not as good as the sky, the old mother was stunned that she didn't survive this year, Jian Yong is also a loyal and filial person, and the one-year mourning at home has expired.

He had received a letter from Liu Bei, saying that he had gone to Taiyuan and hoped that he could go to Taiyuan to help.

But in order to keep the funeral, he still chose to reply to Liu Bei to tell him his current situation, and said that when the mourning period expired, he immediately went to Taiyuan.

Now he has finally finished his mourning vigil.

It's time to get ready to go to Taiyuan.

I just don't know how Xuande is now.

Jian Yong was a little worried about Liu Bei's safety.

After all, it's going to be winter, and the Xianbei people will go to the two states to fight the autumn wind.

This year, Youzhou was also invaded by the Xianbei people, but fortunately, the scale was much smaller, and it was easily wiped out by the white horse general Gongsun Zhan.

And the state doesn't know if it can stop the offensive of the Xianbei people?

After all, the state is also notoriously tired and dilapidated.

Most of the land of a state has been occupied by foreign races, and it is also extinct.

Jian Yong sat in the wine shop and drank slowly, thinking about what he could help Liu Bei do.

There should be no shortage of horses.

There should be a lot of ironware.

Maybe it's the population that the state is short of, right?

Jian Yong was determined in his heart that he planned to start from Zhuo County, walk all the way north to Yanmen County, and then detour from Yanmen County to Taiyuan County to find Liu Bei.

Now that his old mother has died, he has nothing to be nostalgic for here.

It is better to sell the property and leave an ancestral house to relatives and friends to help take care of it.

The shopkeeper warmed a pot of new wine for Jian Yong, and Jian Yong looked at the people of Zhuo County around him.

Alas.

I still have to leave here and throw myself into Liu Bei's arms.

Jian Yong carefully tasted the bad wine on the street, and tasted the twenty yuan wine alive and tasted the feeling of Qiong juice and jade liquid.

There weren't many merchants coming and going from Zhuo County, but now (rì) came in a group from the south.

Brought a lot of novelties and news.

"Do you know that Liu Bei and Liu Xuande who walked out of our Zhuo County?"

Jian Yong's ears moved, and he suddenly heard a topic related to Liu Bei.

He slowed down the action of tasting the wine, but pretended not to care, and carefully inquired about the news.

"Not really!"

"The merchant is here today to bring news. Our Zhuo County has a big hero! ”

"Not really!"

"Those young people in Liujia Village, these days are like beating chicken blood, those who didn't go with Xuande last year are now regretting it!"

Jian Yong pursed his lips, the wine in his hand, it suddenly didn't taste good.

I didn't have time to follow Xuande out.

thinks that at the beginning, he was Liu Bei's hair.

They often played together since they were young.

Because both of them were children of orphans and widows whose fathers died young.

Every time Liu Bei fights with someone, Jian Yong will go up to help, even if he gets a few punches, he doesn't want Liu Bei to suffer.

Later, when he was a little older, Liu Bei was a ranger in Zhuo County, which was equivalent to the head snake of the ground and the head of the ancient boy.

Jian Yong also resolutely followed Liu Bei on this road.

At that time, two fourteen or fifteen-year-old boys, apprenticed to learn art, rode horses and dogs, and spent a wave of wine from time to time.

The four irons of life.

Carried the gun together.

Walk through the window together.

Divide the dirty together.

Together (piáo) prostitution.

Liu Bei and Jian Yong have done these four things.

When Gu Chaozi collects protection money together, and protects the businessman who has received the protection fee from being bullied in Zhuo County, this is carrying a gun.

The protection fee is divided equally to provide for the household, which is to divide the dirty.

After that, he dismissed his brothers, traveled together, and finally studied under Lu Zhigong together, which is the same window.

The last one

Ahem, let's not mention it for now.

This kind of iron buddy's petty relationship, how could Jian Yong not want him.

In order to allow himself to bring more help to Liu Bei, Jian Yong often studied various classics by himself during the year of his funeral, hoping to improve himself.

"Our Liu Xuande of Zhuo County is now promoted to the history of the state assassin! Sit in Taiyuan County, Feng Jinyang Marquis! This is all because he fought in Yanmen a few days ago, and used more than 10,000 Taiyuan soldiers to annihilate hundreds of thousands of Xianbei people! ”

"Tsk, speaking of which, he and General Baima are brothers in the same sect."

"No wonder killing Xianbei is so powerful."

"Yes, they also inherited the official position that their teacher held before, General Kitakaro."

"If he comes back to recruit soldiers, I'll definitely follow him!"

A word sounded in Jian Yong's ears.

It strengthened his heart more and more to go to Bingzhou to find Liu Bei.

merely

Now that Liu Bei has become the pastor of the state, can he become Liu Bei's help?

Jian Yong was still a little worried.

After all, everything he has learned is just a theory for the time being.

It is harmless to use it in small civil fights, but if it is to be used in large-scale wars or important strategies, he has no experience.

He knew that with Liu Bei's (xìng) personality, the relationship with himself.

If he went to Taiyuan, Liu Bei would not treat him badly.

But if he enjoyed the treatment that Liu Bei gave him, but he couldn't bring anything to Liu Bei, Jian Yong also couldn't help it.

It seems that he should bring something to the state.

Jian Yong thought to himself.

He took a sip of the bowl of wine, paid for it, and went home

Jian Yong, who had been sitting at home for a day, finally made a decision.

Immediately go west and go straight to Taiyuan.

But I will never go by alone.

He has to play to his strength and talents.

Abduct people for Liu Bei!

Yesterday (rì) the content of the chatter of the young people in Zhuo County, Jian Yong probably also understood the psychology of the people in Zhuo County now.

Everyone looked at Liu Bei, and the old people felt that it was their own children and nephews who had come out.

Because when Liu Bei was running blindly in the city, there were many people to take care of him.

Liu Bei's father and grandfather are very popular in Zhuo County, Zhuo County, and they take good care of everyone, and the folk customs are still simple at this time.

So everyone often goes back to patronize Xiao Liu Bei's business.

Many people in this Zhuo County grew up watching Liu Bei.

And most of the peers who were good friends with Liu Bei were taken out and became part of the five hundred townspeople.

The new generation regards Liu Bei as an idol, and many Zhuojun teenagers are looking for opportunities to apprentice in front of the old boy according to the path Liu Bei walked when he was young.

Jian Yong looked at the changes in Zhuojun in the past two years.

It almost started with Liu Bei's victory over the Yellow Turban.

Seemingly.

His own brother has also become a model for influencing generations in a place!

Jian Yong was quite envious in his heart, but he knew better what he could do in this situation.

He took the things he had prepared from his home and went to the most crowded street in Zhuo County.

Set up a stall.

A sign was erected.

"(yù) Go to Taiyuan to help Xuande Gong"

"Jian Yong Jian Xianhe"

is the person who is willing to go to Taiyuan with him to join Liu Bei, come to him to register and get a sign.

And Jian Yong invited a scholar to make a directory record here, and uniformly notified him to go home and prepare things, say goodbye to his father and mother, and drag his family with him.

Anyway, as long as it's ready.

After ten (rì), they gathered outside the West City Gate and set off for Taiyuan together.

Jian Yong arranged this place, and went straight to Liu Bei's uncle Liu Yuanqi's house.

"Xianhe mourning period expires, I hope you adjust your mentality, and your mother is also counting on you to become a biological child as soon as possible when she is alive."

Liu Yuanqi is also nearly fifty this year, and his temples already have gray hair.

He is still familiar with Jian Yong, after all, he often funded Liu Bei before, and he knew this good brother who wore open crotch pants and played with mud with Liu Bei.

"Uncle Yuan Qi (shēn) is unharmed?"

For others, Jian Yong is uninhibited and uninhibited, but in the face of Liu Yuanqi, his attitude is also extremely obedient, because this is an elder.

Free and easy is (xìng) (qíng).

It is our duty to respect the old (ài) and the young.

He can still distinguish between Jian Xian and He.

"(shēn) Zi Gu is okay."

Liu Yuanqi stroked his beard, looked at Jian Yong, and suddenly smiled.

"Are you going to go to the Marquis of Jinyang?"

"yes."

Liu Yuanqi sees things (qíng) thoroughly, although he is just a common man, but he also cultivates Confucianism, both inside and outside, is generous and transparent, and his reputation in Zhuo County is also excellent.

Jian Yong did not adapt to Liu Yuanqi's new name for Liu Bei.

"Xuande is now the Marquis of Jinyang, who is personally entitled by His Majesty, although his Xi (xìng) will not care, but if you go to him, you must also cultivate (xìng) and pay attention to your words."

Liu Yuan smiled and taught Jian Yong some experience.

"In private, my brother wants to say that he won't be lonely, but on the official side, all the respect that should be given must be given, and you have to live a good life to maintain Xuande's face."

"Xuande's child is kind and loyal, but he doesn't pay attention to the way of humility and humility, and he doesn't care about his face."

"But uncle, Jian Yong came here this time to invite his uncle and the Deran brothers to go to Bingzhou together."

Jian Yong explained his intention.

"Why?"

This was beyond Liu Yuanqi's expectations, he thought that Jian Yong was just here to say goodbye, but he didn't expect to take his old bones away.
