1 Entering Beijing (third person)
There was nothing else in the box, only a piece of crystal clear jade, the size of a palm, in the shape of a flying phoenix.
In the fifth year of Zhongping, April. After the peach blossoms, Liu Feng threw everything in Zhongshan and embarked on the journey to Beijing, Liu Bei wrote a letter of worship to Lu Zhi, who had been reinstated as an official Bai Shangshu, and Zhong Feng also wrote a letter of introduction to Liu Feng to his friend Xun Yu in Beijing, who served as the palace guard.
Going to Beijing is like a leaf of duckweed, without relatives and no reason, which makes Liu Feng feel a little melancholy in vain. Liu Feng also thought about whether to let Zhong Xuan go to Beijing with him, there are many people around him, and it is easy to discuss things in case of trouble, and Zhong Xuan's talent and knowledge are undoubtedly the best candidates. Tian Feng shook his head and objected, saying that with Liu Feng's family background, it was too ostentatious to have Yingchuan Zhong Xuan by his side, so he had to give up.
Liu Feng didn't leave in a hurry, some regrets but never saw Zhen Ying again, only Zhen Yilai saw him off, and Liu Feng was still as kind as before, but Liu Feng couldn't see through his true thoughts.
Bidding farewell to everyone, Liu Feng only took three of Xu Shan's other servants named Hao Yong on the road. There have been two experiences of distress, Liu Feng naturally can't help but be on guard, but there are not many masters like Shadow in this world after all, Xu Shan has greatly improved his ability after several months of training by the third uncle, and he can fight with Zhang Fei for more than a dozen times. Xu Shan is a powerful person, although he is not as strong as Zhang Fei, he also has hundreds of catties of strength in his hands. It's just that they suffer from the guidance of unscrupulous teachers and become blindly brute force. And Hao Yong is also an extraordinary martial artist, taciturn by nature, but it is rare that he is literate, and he has traveled to several places in his early years, and he is very organized, which Liu Bei specially selected from his personal soldiers.
In July, the three masters and servants finally arrived in Luoyang, the capital division.
Luoyang, the capital of Beijing, is very likely to be the world's largest metropolis in this era, with a population of more than one million, businessmen coming and going, princes and grandsons, angry horses and fresh clothes, and it is really rich and powerful. The tall and thick city walls are majestic and solemn, the rows of restaurants and shops, the mansions of the high gates, the black lacquer of the Zhumen, and the prosperous accumulation of nearly two hundred years, especially thick and dignified in the sunset and evening light of the empire. Busy hooligan pawns, extravagant businessmen, arrogant sons and grandsons, but I don't know if anyone would have imagined that a fire a few years later, prosperity turned into a spring dream, burning the glory of the Han Empire for 400 years.
"Childe, should we go to Xunfu or Lufu first?" After a moment's pause, Xu Shan interrupted Liu Feng's emotion with a big mouth. Under Zhang Fei's fiery temper for several months, Xu Shan can be regarded as a qualified guard, and his temperament is a lot more restrained, but he is still a little cold in front of Liu Cover.
"Let's go to Lu Mansion first, Lord Lu is from Youzhou, and he is still my father's mentor." Putting away the untimely nostalgia, Liu Feng thought for a while. The master and servant each rode a horse, and a coachman drove a carriage with some gifts and money.
After listening to Liu Feng's words, Hao Yong immediately stepped forward to find someone to ask for directions, even if it was in Luoyang, the capital division, the name of Lu Zigan of Zhuo County was still very loud, and it didn't take much effort Hao Yong to find out, and drove a few people in a carriage to Lu Mansion.
"Boy, my son-in-law wants this horse, how much does it cost?" After walking only a few streets, a brocade boy led more than a dozen slaves to stop Liu Feng, one person and one horse, ring his brain, obviously the children of a wealthy family, several of the slaves were restrained and restrained, and they seemed to have good skills. At present, the leading servant pointed to the jade son given by Gongsun Zan under Liu Feng's horse, and shouted loudly, not taking me as a stranger in his eyes at all. The brocade-clothed boy didn't even look at Liu Feng, but only stared at Yu'er with wide eyes, and was very envious.
"Don't sell, please get out of the way!" Liu Feng frowned slightly, and said lightly. In the middle of Beijing, he has just arrived, and he shouldn't have made trouble, but if he is bullied, he can't show weakness. When Gongsun Chan left Zhongshan, he heard that Liu Feng's black horse was "robbed" by Zhang Fei, so he smiled and gave him his beloved Yuer Cong, and Liu Feng naturally couldn't live up to his father-in-law's intentions. Xu Shan and Hao Yong both had dark and calm faces, pressing their waist knives weakly, and they didn't say a word with murderous expressions. Beijing is full of noble families, it is not appropriate to let the two servants come out to fight the scene, he and the two of them are fighting on the battlefield, and they have their own blood and bravery, but not hair, and the cold is pressing for a while.
The slave didn't expect that he would meet such a master, and he couldn't resist the pressure of Xu and Hao, so he shivered and said angrily: "Stinky boy, my son-in-law ......"
"Snap" a leather whip whipped on the face of the slave, but it was the noble son in brocade behind him, his face was like a crown of jade, handsome, about fourteen or fifteen years old, with a heroic and proud face, he glanced at the three of Liu Feng's master and servant, drove forward and hugged him with a bow, and said: "There are many offensives in the subordinates, and Cao Ang of the county is guilty on his behalf, and he dares to ask the son's surname?" ”
"Cao Ang?" Liu Feng was stunned for a moment in his heart, and also hugged him and said: "Liu Feng in Xiazhuo County!" Dare to ask what is the name of Cao Mengde of Gongzi and the five-color stick killing map? In a moment, the noble son in front of him changed his attitude and condescended to be polite, which was obviously not an ordinary easy to match. In his heart, Liu Feng was already sure that this was the eldest son of Cao Cao who died on behalf of his father in Wancheng, but he didn't want to meet him here. After the Cao family was a eunuch, although Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were old friends who visited the Qinglou and lifted the skirts of women since they were children, their Cao family was still very unpopular in the homes of ordinary scholars.
The noble son was stunned at first when he heard this, and a slight doubt flashed on his face, but he did not avoid Liu Feng's eyes. I saw him smile calmly: "It is the eldest son of Meng Degong of Qianjun County!" Thanking Liu Gongzi's concern, Cao Ang was fortunate. ”
Liu Feng said with a smile: "Cao Mengde is upright, law enforcement is like a mountain, the hero of the world, Liu Feng's people in the mountains and wilderness, are also like thunder." ”
Cao Ang smiled knowingly, gave in slightly, turned over and dismounted, and the dozen or so slaves under him also flashed to the side knowingly, this conflict could not get up. After a moment's pause, Cao Angmeng's face was full of surprise, his eyes widened at Liu Feng, and he said, "Zhuojun Liu Feng? Could it be that Your Excellency is Liu Gongzi who raised a thousand scattered soldiers to attack Lu Nu at night and behead Zhang Chun? ”
"Cao Gongzi exaggerated, Liu Feng didn't dare to be ashamed." Liu Feng also turned over and dismounted, walked to Cao Ang, and said with a faint smile: "I don't know, where is Cao Gongzi going?" When Liu Feng first came to the capital, he was not familiar with the people and places, so he collided with Cao Gongzi, and asked Cao Gongzi not to blame. ”
Cao Ang looked at Liu Feng's Yu'er Cong, his face couldn't help but be a little hot, quite embarrassed, and bowed to Liu Fengqian: "Cao Ang is bored, he asked a few friends to go out hunting, he shouldn't have seen Liu Gongzi ride off the BMW, and he was happy for a while, it was Cao Ang who recklessly clashed with Liu Gongzi, and please don't blame Liu Gongzi!" After a pause, he said: "Liu Gongzi is a newcomer to Beijing, if he doesn't give up, Cao will be the guide, and he should make amends, okay?" ”
Liu Feng didn't want to be troubled, so he laughed and said, "Why do you care about such a trivial matter?" If Brother Cao doesn't mind, just call the younger brother Chengze. As for reparation, don't mention it again. ”
Listening to Liu Feng's words, Cao Ang smiled awkwardly and said: "Chengze Yaliang, Cao is ashamed, I don't know if Chengze has acquaintances in Beijing, if you don't give up, you can go to the cold house to live temporarily." ”
Liu Feng estimated that Cao Cao should also be in Luoyang at this time, so he humbly said that he would visit Lu Zhi first, and the teacher ceremony should not be abolished. When Cao Ang heard this, he volunteered to lead the way for Liu Feng, but Liu Feng had no reason to excuse himself, so the two got back on the horse and rode forward. Cao Ang has a bit of the legendary Cao Cao's open-mindedness, speaks extremely funny, treats people sincerely and modestly, and it is difficult for people not to have a good impression of him. Cao Ang has lived in Beijing since he was a child, and is very familiar with the characters and scenes of Beijing, and he takes the trouble to introduce Liu Feng everywhere he goes, even including the situation in Beijing that Liu Feng is most concerned about. As a child of a family, he has his own way of information, and he even took it out and shared it with Liu Feng without concealment, which moved Liu Feng and hated seeing each other late, but unfortunately, he was Cao Cao's son.
After a short time, Liu Cao and Cao were called brothers, and Cao Ang became Liu Feng's first friend in Luoyang, Beijing. Cao Ang is fifteen years old this year, one year older than Liu Feng, in a certain respect, he is also a person without a frame, and he does not care about Liu Feng's humble background, and sincerely calls Liu Feng his younger brother.
After turning a few streets, you will arrive in front of Lu Zhifu.
History records that Lu Zhi is honest and self-motivated, and the vermilion paint in front of the Lu Mansion has peeled off a lot, and only two domestic servants are standing outside, all of whom are coarse cloth clothes. Cao Ang pointed to the Lu Mansion and said with a wry smile: "Chengze, in front of you is the Mansion of Lord Lu Zigan, I won't send it." If Cheng Ze is free, he can come to my house to find me. ”
Liu Feng couldn't help but be a little strange, why Cao Ang seemed to be a little repulsed when he saw Lu Fu, but he didn't want to ask too much.
