"Jiang Jun, Jiang Jun!"

In a daze, Jiang Hyun heard that it seemed to be Yi'er calling him, so he opened his eyes with all his strength. He looked out the window groggily, he had already risen three poles, and then he remembered that today was the day to bid farewell to Liu Bei, but because of yesterday's hangover, he overslept.

Jiang Hyun sat up, and hurriedly asked, "Yi'er...... What time is it? ”

Yi'er replied, "Fang Zhishi." ”

Jiang Hyun barely breathed a sigh of relief, there was still time, and then asked, "Meng Deke can get up?" ”

Yi'er nodded and said, "Cao Jun is also Fang Qi. ”

After Jiang Hyun was already drunk last night, Cao Cao came, and after Jiu Yuchun finished drinking, he asked Jiang Hyun's family to move out of the wine, and Ding couldn't persuade him, singing and dancing while drinking, regardless of whether the drunk Jiang Hyun could still listen to it. After that, he was so drunk that he couldn't leave at all, and the family of three fell asleep at Jiang Hyun's house.

Jiang Hyun got up and went to stay, hurriedly freshened up under Yi'er's service, put on a gold-threaded moire brocade robe, and went out of the house.

As soon as he walked out of the room, he saw that Cao Cao was already standing in the courtyard. Cao Cao drank the most and slept less, his eyes were swollen, and his eyeballs were bloodshot. Seeing Jiang Hyun coming out, he barely suppressed his yawn and said, "Bo Pei, how was your rest last night?" What kind of morning food will you prepare for today? ”

Still having a morning meal? Still thinking about eating? Jiang Hyun waved his hand and said, "There is no morning food!" There is no morning food! If I don't go out again, I won't be able to see Xuande! ”

Cao Cao was also joking, he had already asked Shi Ah to prepare the horses, just waiting for Jiang Xun.

Jiang Xun and Cao Cao walked out of the courtyard gate, stepped on the horse, and saw that Shi A was also going to get on the horse and accompany him, Jiang Xun said: "Zitai, you are still going out and walking around today, just let Yi Zhi go with me," Speaking of this, Jiang Xun remembered that he hadn't seen Jing Wei since he got up, and asked, "Where is Yizhi?" ”

Shi Ah shook his head helplessly, and said helplessly: "Yi Zhi hasn't woken up yet!" ”

Jiang Xun was also speechless, but he still asked Shi A to go out to contact his former friends more, and he and Cao Cao went straight to Luojin.

At this time, there are more and more pedestrians on the road, and the horses can't go fast, and if you delay any longer, you will inevitably miss the time. Jiang Hyun was only anxious in his heart, but there was nothing he could do. Cao Cao was still familiar with the Luoyang Road, so he said: "Bo Pei, I know a small road, a little far away, but there are not many pedestrians, and come with me!" So saying, he turned his horse's head and headed eastward, heading straight for an alley. Kang Hyun also followed.

At the end of the alley, turning south, there is a yellow mud path, which is said to be a small road, but it is not narrow, and can accommodate four or five horses side by side, and the most important thing is that there are few people on this road.

"Bo Pei, from here all the way to the south, to Luoshui, and then along the Luoshui east, to Luojin." With that, Cao Cao let go of his speed and galloped his horse.

Jiang Xun saw that Cao Cao's mount in front of him raised his four hooves, and he was competitive, and he also clamped the horse's belly, spurred again and again, and even caught up with Cao Cao, and turned back to Cao Cao with an evil smile.

Cao Cao saw that Jiang Xun chased in front of him, and turned around to mock him, and he also had the intention of competing in his heart, and sped up again.

The two of you come and go, side by side. The pedestrians hurriedly dodged, and the number of people on the side of the road and the courtyard wall retreated backwards like afterimages, occasionally dropping a few slightly yellowed leaves, and they were also whirling and swaying behind the two. Fresh clothes and angry horses, galloping in the sun, hearty young men are heroic, chivalrous and heroic, happy and hateful, pointing out the country, scolding Fang Xuan, but I don't know how long this simple happiness can last......

When Jiang Xun and Cao Cao arrived at Luoshuijin Pavilion, Yuan Shao, Xu You, and Liu Bei were all there.

Yuan Shao and Liu Bei beckoned the two into the Jinting Pavilion, and then first pretended to be angry and blamed the two for being late, and then waved their hands, and the two family members served delicious food and wine.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, and a drink, Liu Bei was about to leave, he arched his hand and said: "Everyone, it is not early, and it is inconvenient for Su Jun and Zhang Jun to wait in the boat for a long time, so I will leave." ”

Today is the day Liu Bei left Luoyang, and he went with Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping. Although the two of them were walking with Liu Bei, at this farewell table, they were either Yuan Benchu, a model in the world, or Cao Mengde, a son of the Gong family, or Jiang Bopei, a sergeant in Liangzhou, or Xu Ziyuan, a famous scholar in Nanyang, and Liu Xuande, a member of the Han family. The two of them are just ordinary businessmen who cooperate with Liu Bei, they can't get on this kind of table, and they don't deserve to drink a glass of wine, so they are not as good as rangers like Shi A and Jing Wei who wander the market and countryside, and they don't even have the qualifications to serve.

Yuan Shao valued Liu Bei very much, although he was reluctant, he also knew that he was going to leave after all, so he held Liu Bei's hand and said: "Xuande is going, don't forget to pass on the book." If there is something in Zhuo County, but in a word, we will do our best to help! The capital of the ancestral road, Cheng Yi's daughter, has been sent to the ship, and it is cherished all the way! As he spoke, he picked up a full bottle of wine, held it high by the railing, and sprinkled the wine in Luoshui: "Listen to the gods and ghosts of all roads, Yuan Shao is a sacrifice, and you Xuande will have a safe journey!" So saying, he stepped aside, turned his back to the group, and his eyes were already a little moist at some point.

Seeing Yuan Shao's deep affection, Liu Bei was full of emotion, and his mouth was full of thanks.

Cao Cao was a rare widow, but he still had a smile on his face, and said: "Xuande, there will be a day to see each other in the future, take care all the way!" ”

Cao Cao didn't need to say more, Liu Bei naturally knew that Cao Cao was not only expressing his parting feelings, but also placing high hopes on him, thinking that one day everyone would be an official in the court and serve the Han family together.

It was Jiang Hyun's turn, and Jiang Hyun led Liu Bei to the edge of the pavilion, overlooking Luoshui. Boats are bustling in the distance, and currents ripple in the distance. There happened to be a willow branch stretched into the pavilion, Jiang Xun gently folded it, pointed to the green and gentle water flow below with the willow branch, and asked, "Xuande, how is this Luoshui compared to the river water?" ”

Liu Bei didn't know what Jiang Xun meant, but said: "The water is long, and the river is surging, so it's better to do it." ”

Jiang Hyun handed Liu Bei both hands to Liu Bei, and asked, "What about the river compared to the East China Sea?" ”

Fold the willows and give them away, and don't miss them. Liu Bei took the willow branch, but he was thoughtful, and then he understood, and said loudly: "The water of the East China Sea, the vast soup soup, boundless, far from being comparable to rivers!" ”

Jiang Hyun nodded and said, "Exactly!" ”

Liu Bei understood what Jiang Xun meant, that is, he is this Luoshui today, which is inconspicuous in the world, but as long as he moves forward with perseverance and perseverance, he will one day become a great river or even the vast and boundless sea with huge waves.

In the end, Liu Bei had a glass of wine to everyone, and then boarded the boat.

Sail into the distance, gradually disappearing under the blue sky. Jiang Hyun poured another full bottle of wine, drank it all, and sang leisurely: "Flesh and blood are related to branches and leaves, and friendship is also due to each other." The four seas are all brothers, who is the passerby. Moreover, I have a tree, and I am in the same body as the Son. In the past, it was a mandarin duck and a duck, and now it is a participant. The former are often close to each other, Miao Ruohu and Qin. Only when you think of parting, the kindness is new. The deer thinks of weeds, which can be used as a guest. I have a bottle of wine that I want to give to someone far away. May the son stay at his discretion and recount his life. ”

Yuan Shao walked over, patted Jiang Xun's arm gently, and said, "There will be a goodbye day, Bo Pei doesn't have to be so emotional." "Having said that, in this era, the roads are not quiet, chaos is beginning to appear, the traffic is extremely underdeveloped, and the medical conditions are very poor.

Jiang Hyun nodded and didn't say anything more. A few people chatted a few more words, but they had already lost interest and went home.

In fact, there was also Ding Xiao who sent Liu Bei away from Luoyang today. But in addition to the farewell practice, there is something more important, Yuan Shao and Liu Bei handed over to Ding Xiao to do, that is, secretly receiving He Hao and Zhang Miao into Beijing. He Hao is well-known in the world and has always been wanted by the party, and Zhang Miao is one of the "eight chefs". If the news of these two people's arrival in Beijing is known by the Ten Standing Attendants, it will inevitably be hunted and killed. Ding Xiao knew the importance of the matter, so he personally arranged the deployment, and while sending Liu Bei away, He Hao and Zhang Miao had also entered Beijing safely, and they still needed to be sent to Yuan Shao's other business outside the city.

It was already dark, Liu Bei should have passed Wushejin at this time, or went on the land route, or found a place to rest, and everyone went home. Because of bidding farewell to Liu Bei, Jiang Hyun was in a very low mood. Speaking of which, he and Liu Bei just met in Pingshui, and they have no deep friendship, even if they are like-minded, it will not be like this. But recently, Jiang Hyun often has feelings of impermanence, joys and sorrows, and only feels that the grand scene in front of him is fleeting.

All this, Jiang Hyun thinks it is likely to be caused by pessimism about the world, the court, and the future. In Zaoyang Pavilion, Jiang Hyun once pointed to the sky and determined to sweep the world and correct the world, but how can he do it? It is indeed the right way to become an official and go deep into the court in order to turn the tide, but how easy is it to talk about? For decades, upright people have either avoided disasters and lived in seclusion, or encountered party officials, and even worse, their families were ruined, and they were just batches of moths fighting fires. What if it was to change the world and establish a new world? Not to mention that this road is more difficult, and with swords and soldiers, how many lives are lost? How many bones are wasteland? Where is the road ahead?
