Now Liu Deran is alone, in the funeral of the third uncle and three aunts, Liu Bei, as the son of the third uncle, has been staying with Liu Deran, no matter how big or small, Liu Bei is always by Liu Deran's side, this is not only to repay the third uncle's kindness to him, but also to make up for his debt to Deran, of course, he knows that all this is just a drop in the bucket, people can't be resurrected after death, no matter how they repay, no matter how they make up, it is far from enough.

At the same time, Wang's belly is also getting more and more bulging, and the time to give birth is coming, but Liu Bei lacks skills, so he hired a neighbor next door, Grandma, Wang's food, clothing, housing and transportation are taken care of by Grandma, Liu Bei goes back once or twice a day, planning to wait for the funeral here to be done, Liu Bei will go back to accompany Wang.

Since Liu Deran came back, Liu Bei has experienced too many things, first rushed to Liaodong County to visit Gongsun Zhan, and after coming back, he learned the news of the death of the third uncle and three aunts, so he hurried to Liu Deran's house to help hold a funeral together, during which the Wang family was about to give birth to a child, so he tried to find a way to find a grandmother to help, things really came one after another, and he was enough to choke his whole person.

After burying the third uncle and three aunts today, Liu Bei finally felt that he could breathe a deep sigh of relief, and at this time on the way back with Liu Deran, Liu Bei asked about the things he wanted to ask for many days but didn't have time to ask: "Deran, since you separated from us that day, what have you experienced on the way, take advantage of this time, you can talk to me." ”

"Just to go to Su Shuang's house, I spent a long time, I am not familiar with the place, I asked around, fortunately, their family is famous, there are many people who know, when I found it, I knocked on the door for a long time and no one came to open it, and then I asked his family around to know that Su Shuang had already taken refuge!" Liu Deran shook his head and said: "Brother, he is a businessman, very shrewd, how can he wait for death in Zhongshan, we are all worried about him in vain!" ”

"That's right, so do you know where they all went?" Liu Bei turned his head and asked.

"Yangzhou, they went to Yangzhou to take refuge, when the war is raging today, in addition to Yangzhou, there are large areas of war traces in other states and counties, Su Shuang's home, that is, Jizhou, not to mention, it is Zhang Jiao's base camp, as well as Youzhou, Qingzhou, Yanzhou, and Zhouzhou, Yuzhou, Xuzhou, Jingzhou are all under the fire of Taiping Road, and later after Zhang Jiao's death, there was a Montenegrin army!" Liu Deran said worriedly.

"Black Mountain Army?"

"Yes, he is a force that developed during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the leader is a person named Zhang Yan, who has been operating in the Jizhou and Zhou regions, and all the counties and counties north of the Yellow River have been harassed by him. However, later I heard that Zhang Yan sent an envoy to the capital Luoyang to write to the imperial court to ask for surrender, so Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty appointed Zhang Yan as the general of the middle of the peace, so that he could manage the administrative and public security affairs of the mountainous areas north of the Yellow River, and could recommend filial piety to the imperial court every year, and sent officials to Luoyang to report to work. ”

"Now the bandits are getting smarter and smarter!" Liu Bei sighed.

"What? What do you mean? ”

"If you don't take the initiative to surrender, bandits are always bandits, not only illegal organizations, but also hated by the world, now no one moves him, because the court has not eased up now, once the court has strength, then he can only eat and walk, Zhang Jiaojun's momentum is huge, but it is just a passing cloud, how can Zhang Yan not know, now he takes the initiative to surrender, the court is weak, and can only accept, once it is recognized by the court, the Montenegrin army is a legal organization, and the army it has is also legal, No one can shoot them on the grounds of banditry at will! Liu Bei sneered: "Awesome, amazing! ”

"I see, it's really the truth when you say that!" Liu Deran suddenly said brightly.

"But then again, there are so many bandits in Jizhou, no wonder Su Shuang wants to move, so what about later, where did you go?"

"When I learned that Susushuang had moved away, I returned to Anxi County."

At this time, Liu Bei heard Anxi County, and he was very embarrassed in his heart, and said ashamedly: "I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, I only blame myself for being too impulsive, too short-tempered, and unable to control my impulses, so I made a big mistake, I'm ashamed." ”

Liu Deran said with a smile at this time: "Don't say it, after I went back, although I saw a notice posted on the city gate to arrest you, the local people all talked about your goodness, and they all said that Liu County Lieutenant was a clean official and a good official who was dedicated to the people." ”

"Really?" Liu Bei listened to what Liu Deran said at this time, and he couldn't believe it.

"Who says it's not, the people only like to do practical things for them, even if your status is high, if you don't do practical things for them, they won't care about you, what the people want, what the government wants, this is what an official should do, and then I asked around about your whereabouts, and finally heard someone say that you are going to Qingzhou, I think so many places why do you want to run to Qingzhou, Qingzhou except Liu Ziping, there is no other person to know, so I went to find Liu Ziping, I really didn't expect to find the right person."

"Yes, in fact, several of us were fugitives at that time, Youzhou must not dare to go, no one knows anyone in other places except Liu Ziping, so I can only go to him to try my luck and see if he can take him in, fortunately, Liu Ziping is righteous and helped us when we are in trouble, we have to remember this friend."

"Yes, he told me that Yide beat the superintendent, but this is different from what I heard from the locals in Anxi County, but in front of him, I don't want to argue with him about this kind of thing, haha......"

"It's hard to say, who knew that Jian Yong would come up with such an idea at that time, thinking about it, I still can't help Yide, let him bear such a charge for himself."

"Do extraordinary things at extraordinary times, everyone knows you, but no one knows Zhang Yide, saying that he beat the post supervisor is much better than saying that you beat the post supervisor. Later, I heard him say that you went to Youzhou to fight, and I knew that you had gone back, so I left Qingzhou and set off for Youzhou, but there were many disturbances on the way, so I could only hide in Tibet, go around, and delay some time on the way, and come back late. ”

"What about your horse? When you came back, I saw that you weren't riding! ”

"Hey~ died early, was chased by a group of robbers on the road, the mount was hit by an arrow, and died on the spot, seeing that there was a river on the side, I dived into the water, fortunately, I often played this in the Songshan stream, otherwise I would have died!" When Liu Deran said this, he still felt palpitations.

Liu Bei heard that Liu Deran had mixed feelings in his heart because he had suffered so much on the way, and at this time he thought of the third uncle, thinking that the third uncle's family had paid too much for themselves, and he was now an ordinary person, how could he let so many people pay for himself, thinking about it, Liu Bei couldn't help but shed tears, and said with a sigh: "Let you suffer, Deran." ”

Liu Deran saw that Liu Bei actually shed tears for himself, and he was very moved in his heart, and said: "Brother, everyone is a brother, and they all deserve it." ”

Liu Bei felt at this time that he really couldn't do nothing like this anymore. Liu Deran, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Jian Yong, which one has not been born and died for himself, which one has not worked hard for himself, do you want to repay them with this mediocre life, and the teacher Lu Zhi, senior sister Xue'er, senior brother Gongsun Zhan, they have all done so much for themselves and helped themselves so much, don't they have grown up a little, spend their lives like this, I'm afraid they won't forgive themselves.

Those who ran to the mountains to be hermits when they saw the troubled times, they were just some self-deceiving guys, and they were all people who didn't dare to face reality.

"Deran, what kind of person do you think I am?" Liu Bei asked suddenly.

"A man with great ambition, courage and vision!" Liu Deran frowned and thought.

"How can it be so exaggerated, seriously!"

"Really! If you are restless in ordinary life, it means that you are not willing to be mediocre and have great ambitions; You have participated in many wars, this time you have taken the lead, and you have almost lost your life, which represents courage; Your analysis of the political pattern of the DPRK and the situation in the world is reasonable and well-founded, which means that you have insight, and this is my basis, and I also believe that we will succeed if we follow you in the future! ”

"Thank you!" Liu Bei put his hand on Liu Deran, and the two brothers walked home with a smile.
