【Confused】

"Xuande, let's eat something." At this time, a young man took a cake and handed it to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei was curious about who this person was, raised his head and took a closer look, and only realized for a long time that this was Jian Yong, who had not seen him for many years, Jian Yong had changed a lot, he hurriedly stood up and said: "Xianhe, you are here too, I miss you if I haven't seen you for so many years, you see that you are strong enough, if it is a few years later, I guess I won't recognize you." Liu Bei patted Jian Yong's shoulder, hammered Jian Yong's chest and said.

"Don't talk about me, you too, each of you has grown, and your body bones have become wider, look at your muscles, listen to Deran, you still often practice martial arts in Songshan, this is really good, unlike me, I have no power to restrain the chicken!" Jian Yong shook Liu Bei's arm vigorously with his hand, and said enviously: "The people who have practiced are really different, if someone bullies me in the future, you have to help me block it!" ”

"Haha......" Jian Yong's words made Liu Bei laugh: "It's so big, who still bullies you, come on, if someone dares to touch you in the future, Deran and I will go to him to settle accounts." ”

At this time, Liu Yuanqi saw that Liu Bei was a little angry, so he came over and said: "Thanks to Xianhe these days, many things in the family are Xianhe's help, Xuande, take this opportunity, you and Xianhe go out for a walk, and thank you by the way, anyway, here is me and my second uncle cooking, and you are not left alone." After speaking, he glanced at Jian Yong.

Jian Yong also understood that Liu Yuanqi wanted to let him accompany Liu Bei out to relax, and he understood: "I have been playing with Xuande since I was a child, what is this busyness, Xuande, since your uncle said that you are not alone here, we will go out for a walk, you have just come back, what has happened in the county in the past few years, I say you listen." ”

When Liu Deran heard it, he put down the work in his hand, walked over and said, "That's right, we haven't seen each other for so long, let's go out for a walk." ”

Liu Bei was very moved when he saw that everyone was so considerate: "Okay, the three of us haven't been together for a long time, let's go out for a walk!" ”

At this time, Liu Bei was in the middle, Liu Deran on the left hand, Jian Yong on the right, and the three of them walked side by side.

"Xianhe, thank you so much for helping my family so much, thank you for your hard work." Liu Bei said to Jian Yong.

Jian Yong pretended to be angry when he heard this: "I said Xuande, if you see you like this again, I won't recognize you as a brother." ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he hurriedly smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I won't say anything in the future...... Hey, by the way, how did you and Master Li learn after Deran and I left? ”

"I studied with Mr. Li for three years, of course, I also learned a lot of things, and then Mr. Li said that he was going to Xuzhou to visit the old man, so he took Gan'er away, and I continued to do farm work at home, and my life was the same."

"There is really no wine banquet in the world, in recent years, I have often experienced this pain of parting, I feel that life is always playing tricks on everyone, since we have to separate in the end, why do we have to meet in the first place?" Liu Bei raised his head and sighed.

"Isn't life like this, divided and combined, combined and divided, and separated may be for the sake of meeting each other better!" Jian Yong said casually.

"Hey, when did Xianhe say such philosophical words, you haven't learned in vain in the past few years!" Liu Deran quipped.

"Hey, I said Deran, you're still so annoying!" Jian Yong pushed back again.

"Haha...... Okay, okay, the two of you, you always like to make trouble when you meet since you were a child, but it's okay, the more noisy this mouth is, the better the relationship! Liu Bei turned his head and said to Jian Yong: "But Jian Yong's words are really good, the difference is to meet better, we have to work harder in the future and make some achievements, so that in the future, the old people will meet each other, which is the original intention of yesterday's separation!" ”

"Yes, young people have to be a little aggressive!" Jian Yong agreed.

"By the way, Xianhe, I would like to ask you something, have you noticed that there are a lot of displaced people in our Zhuo County these days?" Liu Bei unconsciously lowered his voice at this time.

Jian Yong actually discovered this phenomenon a long time ago, and when he saw Liu Bei asking, he also said in a low voice: "I found out, I inquired, they came to Zhuo County for nothing else, in order to promote an idea called Taiping Dao, the local people are particularly obsessed with this kind of thinking, a few days ago we followed them to Zhuo County to a lot of people, and then the county order found this phenomenon, and defined this kind of Taoist sect as an evil crooked way, drove these displaced people out of Zhuo County, and took a series of measures to suppress the power of this sect in Zhuo County, Therefore, this kind of displacement is rare in our county, but it seems to be very serious in other counties. ”

Liu Bei listened to Jian Yong's words, and then admired the county order of Zhuo County: "I also feel that this Taiping Dao is not a simple Taoist sect, but as a common people, I have no way to understand the specific situation of this sect, but listen to you, this county magistrate must be a person of insight." ”

Jian Yong saw that this Xuande was quite conceited, and people with the same views as himself were people of insight, but he was happy during this time, and said at this time: "I don't know about this, this person has just been transferred to Zhuo County not long ago, I heard that he is from Liaoxi, and the others are not clear." ”

"Liaoxi people?" Liu Bei said thoughtfully.

"What, do you recognize Xuande?" Jian Yong said with a smile.

"No, no, no, how could I know the county magistrate." Liu Bei smiled bitterly: "If I knew the county order, how could I still worry about my future development, in fact, since I left Luoyang, I have been quite confused, and I don't know how to go in the future." ”

"Who says it's not, I feel like I'm going to work in the fields again in the future, living a life with my back to the loess all day long, boring and without a future!" Liu Deran complained.

Jian Yong said with a smile: "You are also people who have been to Luoyang, you look at our Zhuo County, there are only a handful of people who have been to Luoyang, and there are a few people like you who have seen the world, besides, you are still Lu Zhi's student, who is Lu Zhi, a contemporary Confucian, your innate advantage is much better than those of us who stay in the county all year round, I tell you, you are short of a chance now, as long as this opportunity comes, the time will come." ”

Liu Bei listened to Jian Yong's words, and thought to himself that this Jian Yong was really talking and laughing, but then again, the Han Dynasty had a very strong concept of door shade in the officialdom, and even if you are a nerd with a good family background, you don't have to worry about being unofficial; On the contrary, people with poor family backgrounds, no matter how strong your ability and knowledge are, you can only do the work at the bottom of the society, and there are very few precedents for children from poor families like yourself to squeeze into the upper echelons of society. At this time, Jian Yong said that the opportunity, he didn't know what this opportunity was.

Liu Bei is really confused about his future, he is the descendant of Grandpa Gao after Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan, this world is also the world of the Liu family, but he did not enjoy the benefits of the Liu family's world, and his birth conditions are not worthy of his ambitions. He has followed the teacher for so many years, and he knows that the life of the common people is hard, and he also hopes that the people of the world can live and work in peace and contentment, and he hopes that he can take the world as his responsibility like the teacher, but the premise of this is that he must have enough ability, or he must have enough power, to make a county order, so that the people of a county can be happy; The bigger the official is and the higher the status, the more things he can do for the people.

Liu Bei muttered at this moment: "I am still a common man at this time, and I want to be a big official without even getting involved in officialdom, it's really a fool's dream." ”

"What did you say?" Jian Yong saw him muttering to himself, and asked strangely.

Liu Bei said at this moment: "Xianhe, you are right, I lack a chance...... I don't think it's getting early, or let's go back, my mother's funeral, I'd better be at home. ”

"Well, let's go." After saying that, everyone turned around and went back.

【Gifting】

Tuk tuk, tuk tuk~

"It's coming, it's coming!" Liu Bei heard someone knocking on the door early in the morning, so he immediately got up and opened the door.

Creak~

Liu Bei opened the door and saw a middle-aged man standing outside the door, and said with a smile: "May I ask if you are Liu Bei from Zhuo County?" ”

"Ah, yes, are you?" Liu Bei scratched his eyes and looked at the stranger in front of him: "Listening to your accent, it doesn't seem to be a local, right?" ”

"Yes, I'm from Zhongshan, and my young lady asked me to send you something, with some food and clothes, and some money!" The man made a gesture to invite him out, pointed to the carriage not far away, and said, "These are all given to you by my young lady, and she said that you must accept them." ”

"Zhongshan people, your young lady?" Liu Bei tied his belt at this time and said, "Are you from Su Mansion?" ”

"Yes, I came from Su Mansion below, Miss heard that your mother died of illness, so I asked Zai Xia to personally send these things to you, in order to show her little heart, she also asked me to tell you, don't be too sad, mourn and change!" The man bent down and said with a smile, this may be that he has been a servant for a long time, and he naturally grovels when he speaks.

"So, is your young lady okay now?" Liu Bei asked.

"Miss is all right, Miss said to let you work hard in the future, no matter what difficulties you have in life or career, you can tell her, she will find a way to help you!" He made a gesture to the coachman, who saw it and pulled the car over.

Liu Bei lowered his head at this time and muttered to himself: "It's good, I can't imagine that I, Liu Bei, can only rely on other people's relief to live now!" ”

"Liu Gongzi, let's help you move in with these things!" The man said.

Liu Bei raised his head and said: "No, you can take these things back, tell Xue'er, I don't need these, I Liu Bei understands her kindness, thank her on my behalf!" Liu Bei's face was solemn at this time.

"Liu Gongzi, we have transported these things from Zhongshan to Zhuo County, a long journey, the road is difficult, you can more or less accept some, so at least let us have an explanation!" The man saw that Liu Bei actually refused, which was simply unexpected.

"Let's go, I, Liu Bei, have my own hands and feet!" After Liu Bei finished speaking, he walked into the room and slammed the door shut.

"Hey~ this...... Hey~" The man shook his sleeves heavily, sat in the carriage aggrievedly, waved his hand impatiently and said: "Let's go, I don't know how to ask for the pie that fell from the world, what a nerd!" ”
