Chapter 13 Abandoned since childhood
A fierce look flashed in Diao Hong's eyes, and he didn't do it for a moment, but he nodded again and again: "What Liu Lizheng said is reasonable, I have written it down, and I will definitely reflect this matter with my brother in the future." It's getting late today, say goodbye, and be sure to prepare water and wine another day to make amends to Liu Lizheng! ”
As he spoke, he picked up the Heavenly Scepter, bypassed Liu Yu as if he fled, and hurried towards the side door, and the other subordinates also seemed to have been amnestied, lifted the unconscious Diao Mao on the ground, and fled, while the crowd erupted in a burst of ridicule and laughter.
Above the restaurant, Yang Linzi, a white-clothed showman, said with a smile: "Youdu, what you said is really good, this Liu Yu is really a hero, he beat Diao Hong away with three punches and two kicks, and Jingkou is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger." ”
Liu Linzong drank a bowl of wine indifferently and narrowed his eyes slightly: "I think, the Diao family can't swallow this breath, the mountain rain is about to come, and the wind is full of buildings." At this point, he paused, his gaze fell to the southeast outside the city, and muttered, "Moreover, with that person here, there should be a lot of variables." ”
Liu Yu was in a very good mood, and a few of the remaining officials in the state government led Tan Pingzhi and others to live temporarily in the Yishe on the official field, while Liu Yu himself left in the cheers and adoring eyes of many people in Beijing.
Liu Yu has grown so big, and he has had countless fights and brawls before, but he has never been so cool as today, the moonlight is like water, sprinkled on his body, making him feel that he walks lightly.
It wasn't until he left the city and came to the edge of a stream that Liu Yu finally laughed a few times, and said to his reflection in the stream: "How about it, my Liu Yu's performance today is okay." ”
The stream was murmuring, Liu Yu suddenly found that the water had become extraordinarily clear, he looked up at the sky, and saw a crescent moon, which had risen high into the air.
Today's sky was clear and cloudless, making the moonlight extraordinarily bright, and he smiled and said to himself, "It's not a full moon, there is something to see." ”
Suddenly, Liu Yu's face changed, and he secretly thought: If the moon is full, it will be a loss, and in the middle of the month, it will be a profit, don't you understand this truth? Everything is too much! Ancient common sense.
When the moon is only halfway there, it slowly gets bigger every day until it is full, but when it is really full, the next time it appears, it is only a little bit left.
Heaven and earth have their own theorems, when it is too prominent, it will become the target of the public, the so-called wood show in the forest, the wind will destroy it, this is also the truth.
I'm in the limelight too much today, and it's not necessarily a good thing to get the new brother of the assassin.
But soon, Liu Yu's heart suddenly became arrogant: What is there to do with this little official who welcomes and sends to collect rent and levy Ding every day? ! That Qin King Fu Jian wants to fight the best, I just happened to serve the country from the army, and I can also show my life's ambitions.
Thinking of this, Liu Yu suddenly felt a sour feeling in his heart: I can join the army, but what about my mother and your two young brothers? ”
Vaguely, Liu Yu's eyes fell on the stream just now, and suddenly, he was surprised to find that what was reflected in the water light was no longer his own appearance, and his father Liu Qiao, who had been dead for many years, was watching him in the stream.
Liu Qiao whispered: "Xiaoyu, go, go to the army to realize your ambitions, glorify me, glorify the ancestors of the Liu family!" ”
Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly, he stood up, and a stone smashed heavily into the water: "A guy who doesn't even want his own son is also worthy of being a father?" I, Liu Yu, have no father! ”
The stones entered the water, splashing a thousand broken shadows, and Liu Qiao's image, together with the half of the crescent moon, disappeared suddenly.
Liu Yu closed his eyes, the night wind blew a strand of messy hair on his forehead, and vaguely, he seemed to hear that in the cold night of thunderstorms, his father's roar echoed between the walls of the house: "It's all you, the disaster star, killed your mother, I, I don't want you anymore!" ”
Thinking of this, his heart was a heart-wrenching pain, and his father's face, which had been blurred, became so hateful.
However, Liu Qiao's voice of "joining the army" echoed in Liu Yu's ears repeatedly accompanied by the sound of the night wind.
Liu Yu sighed softly and said to himself: "Just now I said that I joined the army to serve the country, not a joke, I can also understand that in this world, if a low-level scholar like me wants to get ahead, there is only one way to make contributions on the battlefield, the Qin army is preparing to go south, and the big war is imminent, this may be our opportunity." ”
"But the soldiers are in danger, the younger brothers in the family are not yet ten years old, and there is a widowed mother, if I go to the army, what will they do? Besides, with my current status, I'm afraid that I can't be an officer, so I can only start as a small soldier, fighting on the front line is not the usual fighting and fighting, that's fatal, in case there is a mistake, what will be the consequences? ”
The more Liu Yu thought about it, the more upset he became, and he gritted his teeth: Wealth is in danger, no one can introduce me out to be an official, or to be a general, so I can only rely on my own hands. Today I provoked Diao Hong, although I had a bad breath, but I am afraid that I will be retaliated by the Diao family in the future, this Lizheng, I'm afraid I can't do it.
But then again, even the Diao family has taken a fancy to the strong people in Jingkou, and they came to grab this land, but not to recruit some tenants who farm land, but also to recruit troops here, and then provide them to General Xie who went out of the town of Guangling, in order to get the Xie family's care, so the imperial court has a large number of soldiers, which is the matter in front of them.
When I was a child, I fought for the sake of fighting, because those guys scolded me for being a slave, but when I grew up, I no longer fought for the sake of fighting, most of the time it was for the sake of righteousness, for a good name.
Including this time, too, I helped the northern refugees, and the local villagers were impressed, thinking that I was a righteous and bold person, so that even if everyone joined the army together, I was also a leading big brother, and I could rise much faster than being a small soldier!
Thinking of this, Liu Yu's mood became much lighter, then, there is only one last question left, what if I leave and the Diao family bullies my family?
Today, that Diao Hong saw my family's household registration and also knew my family's situation, I'm afraid that after I join the army, he will find a way to take revenge on my family.
So today I have to teach him a lesson, let him know that I am not easy to mess with, if he dares to mess around, I will come back to him to settle accounts after I have made meritorious contributions in the army.
But today I also saved some face for him, only beat his house slaves, and still didn't make a move against him, so many villagers in Jingkou saw today's events, and they wouldn't let him mess around.
Liu Yu made up his mind in his heart, walked away, and strode towards the direction of home, on a small high post about three miles in the distance, Liu Linzong coldly watched the two leave in opposite directions, and the corners of his mouth hooked.
