Chapter 410: Keep up the good work

Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!

No one expected that they had been out of food for many days, and Feng Yi still had beans hidden on his body. Zhu You couldn't help but ask, "Gongsun, where did you get the beans from, and when did you get them?" ”

Feng Yi shrugged his shoulders, gathered all the beans in the mezzanine of his robe, and then said, "I'll go cook a bowl of bean porridge for the lord." ”

At this time, they were in a cave. Long Yuan and the others picked up dry firewood, lit a bonfire, Feng Yi took out a small clay pot, put beans and a few wild vegetable leaves in it, poured in some water, and put it on the bonfire to burn.

As the bean porridge in the small clay pot bubbles, the aroma of the bean porridge also spreads in the cave.

The people who sat around the campfire all swallowed their saliva, and although they were all very hungry, they all sat still, and no one stepped forward to take a bite.

At this time, there are still people who can stay by Liu Xiu's side, and one of them can be called Liu Xiu's ironcore.

The big waves pan for gold, and the hundred are refined into steel. Liu Xiu's escape journey in Hebei is not a test of human nature?

The difficult and dangerous environment has eliminated all the people around Liu Xiu who are not strong-willed, and the so-called removal of the dross and the essence of it.

After the bean porridge was cooked, Feng Yi took out a bowl and brought it to Liu Xiu's approach.

Under the soft call of the surrounding people, Liu Xiu woke up slowly, and saw the bowl of bean porridge sent by Feng Yiduan, Liu Xiu was also surprised, he looked at Feng Yi with a blank gaze, and asked, "Is this ...... Where do the beans come from? ”

"It was left by his subordinates before, and he has never been willing to eat it." Feng Yi sent the porridge bowl forward again and said, "Lord, eat it quickly!" ”

This bowl of bean porridge has only a few beans and a few pieces of wild vegetables, most of which are soup, and there is no seasoning, so it tastes bad.

But for Liu Xiu, who has not eaten for many days and is hungry, this bowl of bean porridge can be called the best delicacy he has ever eaten in his life.

After drinking this bowl of bean porridge, Liu Xiu slowly closed his eyes, as if he had fallen asleep groggily.

There was still a little bit of bean porridge left, and no one present was willing to eat it. Feng Yi looked around, and just about to speak, Deng Yu said: "Leave the rest of these, wait for the lord to wake up, and let the lord finish eating." ”

The rest of the people also nodded, indicating that Deng Yu was right. Feng Yi swallowed back the words that came to his lips and silently put away the small pottery plate.

People thought that Liu Xiu fell asleep again after eating the bean porridge because of his weak body, but in fact, he didn't sleep.

Liu Xiu was lying in the middle of the cave, with his back to everyone, no one could see it, and water droplets flowed from his closed eyes.

Most of the founding emperors of all dynasties were full of worries and fears about the founding heroes.

Meritorious Cover Lord! What emperor does not want to sit firmly on the throne after sitting on the throne? Therefore, there are all the birds, the good bow is hidden, the cunning rabbit dies, and the lackeys cook. Liu Xiu can be regarded as an outlier among the founding emperors, there is no hypocrisy of releasing military power with a glass of wine, and there is no unloading and killing donkey that kills the founding heroes, he gets along very well with every founding hero, which is of course related to Liu Xiu's own character

He is also a person who knows how to be grateful.

When he was in the most difficult time, those subordinates never gave up on him, and if he had a bite to eat, he would rather be hungry himself, and let him, the lord, eat first, this kindness made Liu Xiu remember it in his heart and remember it for a lifetime.

Therefore, in many cases, Liu Xiu's performance is a very short-term person.

Not all of his subordinates are saints, and people often make mistakes, but Liu Xiu has never been punished too severely, of course, his short-term personality has also created a lot of trouble for himself, and even a crisis, which is a later story.

After all, Liu Xiu is a person who has drunk gold liquid, and his physical fitness is very good, he was still sick yesterday, but only one night has passed, and by the next day, his spirit has been obviously raised.

Feng Yi took out the little bean porridge left over from yesterday, it was hot, and he wanted to give it to Liu Xiu to eat.

The latter waved his hand at him and said with a smile: "Add more water, and we will all eat together." ”

Deng Yu Zhengse said: "The lord's condition has not healed, so let's eat it!" ”

"Yes, my lord, how can such a little bean porridge be enough for all of us to eat?"

"Eat it, my lord, we're not hungry!" Everyone said a word, and I persuaded Liu Xiu a word.

Liu Xiu said with a smile: "We have entered Youzhou, not far from Raoyang. We ate these bean porridge first, pad our stomachs, and wait until we arrive in Raoyang, and then eat a good meal! ”

Everyone looked at each other and muttered in their hearts, the lord should be sick and confused, right? They are being wanted by Wang Lang, go to Raoyang, aren't they going to kill themselves?

Choshi cleared his throat and said, "My lord, I heard that most of the counties in Youzhou have also submitted to Wang Lang. ”

Liu Xiu glanced around at everyone, smiled indifferently, picked up the scepter erected next to him, he stroked the yellow belt tied to the stick, and said happily: "Who knows, whether we are Liu Xuan's envoys or Wang Lang's envoys?" ”

People were stunned when they heard this, Deng Yu was the first to react, his eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "What does the lord mean, we can lie that we are Wang Lang's envoys and blend into Raoyang?" ”

"Exactly!" Liu Xiu nodded with a smile. Now these people who can still stay by Liu Xiu's side have a kind of worship that is almost like faith for Liu Xiu, Liu Xiu said that they can blend into Raoyang, no one has any doubts about this, people's faces are full of joy, one by one grinning, full

The excitement and excitement of the heart.

As long as there is hope in people's hearts, people will be full of energy. Liu Xiu's words made the originally lifeless cave full of vitality all of a sudden. Liu Xiu also stood up, stretched his arms, and moved his muscles and bones.

There wasn't much bean porridge left, even if a lot of water was added, there were only so many beans in it, and they shared it for dozens of people, and in the end everyone only got a bowl bottom.

However, it is about to enter Raoyang, and people don't care about this little bit of sparse bean porridge now, and after drinking it dry, they are full of enthusiasm to pack their luggage.

Liu Xiu walked out of the cave, raised his head, and took a deep breath.

This sudden illness made him feel as if he was going around outside the ghost gate, and it also gave him a sense of rebirth.

Before her illness, Liu Xiu's heart was full of resentment. He resented Liu Xuan for killing his eldest brother, and he wanted to harm himself all the time, and wanted to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots; He resented Wang Lang for being the emperor, chased after him and beat him fiercely, and wanted to put himself to death; He resented Liu Lin for being vicious and treating millions of lives as if he were a million

grass mustard, and at the same time stupid, can believe Wang Lang's nonsense and push Wang Lang to be the emperor in Hebei; He resents God's injustice, he has never done anything hurtful to God, and he has not done anything wrong, why does he refuse to give himself a way to live......

And now, Liu Xiu has no resentment in his heart.

He summed up his current situation in four words, not working hard enough.

If he can work harder, he can change the current embarrassing situation, and if he can work harder, he can take the brothers around him out of the desperate situation.

Just when Liu Xiu was standing outside the cave and was full of emotions, Deng Yu walked over, came to his side, and whispered: "The lord really wants to mix in Raoyang?" ”

Liu Xiu glanced at Deng Yu and nodded.

Deng Yu frowned tightly and reminded: "Lord, this trip is dangerous!" "If people can't recognize them, it's okay, once they are recognized, they will become turtles in the urn in Raoyang, and it will be difficult to fly with wings.

Liu Xiu pondered for a moment and said, "Everyone follows me to seek hope, not despair. ”

After a pause, he said meaningfully: "Since everyone respects me as the lord, I must bring hope to everyone!" ”

At this time, Liu Xiu really didn't have much capital to say this kind of thing, but Deng Yu saw the long-lost confidence on Liu Xiu's face.

He can't remember how long he hasn't seen it, and he hasn't felt Liu Xiu's self-confidence, and the current Liu Xiu is the high-spirited Liu Xiu he is familiar with.

Deng Yu's heart fluttered, and he arched his hand and said: "Whether you go up the knife mountain or go down to the sea of fire, Yu is willing to walk with the lord!" ”

Liu Xiu patted Deng Yu on the shoulder and said, "Before Wang Lang was proclaimed emperor in Handan, there were hundreds of people with me, but now, there are only a few dozen people, why?" ”

Deng Yu thought for a while and said, "Because they are afraid of death." ”

Liu Xiu smiled and said, "Everyone is afraid of death, and I am also afraid of death." He said quietly: "Those who leave me are not strong-willed, because they are not working hard enough, and they are not willing to work hard with me." Everyone will say the word hard work, everyone understands that it is important, but most people, for these two

Every word is passable. Therefore, only a few people can go very high and far, and most people are just doing nothing and dying in the ordinary. ”

Deng Yu looked at Liu Xiu, he didn't come back to his senses for a long time, I don't know when, Zhu You and others also walked out of the cave, people stood behind Liu Xiu, and said in unison: "Lord! We are willing to work together with the Lord! ”

Liu Xiu turned back, his eyes slowly swept over everyone's faces, nodded heavily, and said, "Yes, let's work together!" Hold on a little longer! Try a little harder! ”

Raoyang, located near the junction of Youzhou and Jizhou, is bordered by the two states to the south and the Hutuo River to the north. Raoyang's geographical location is good, but the city is not big.

When Liu Xiu and his party arrived in Raoyang, it was already nearly evening. Liu Xiu still took his stick, the scepter, walked at the front of the line, and swaggered to the city gate. The officers and soldiers guarding the city gate frowned when they saw Liu Xiu and the others. fled all the way from Jizhou to Youzhou, Liu Xiu and these people, each of them was embarrassed, their clothes were dirty and torn, their faces were black and white, and almost all of them became big flower faces and heads

I don't know if I haven't washed my hair for a few days, and it has turned into wisps and is still stained with dry blades of grass.

If it weren't for Liu Xiu and the others, all of whom were wearing swords, looking at their appearance, they would be almost no different from the homeless people fleeing the famine.

The city gate official guarding the city gate stepped forward, looked at Liu Xiu and the others, and asked loudly in an unkind tone, "What are you all doing?" ”

"Bold!" Without waiting for Liu Xiu to speak, Zhu You on the side blew up first, he crossed his waist with one hand, held the hilt of the sword with the other, and scolded sharply: "When you see your lord, you are not disrespectful, what should you be guilty of?" ”

Zhu You is not born in Bai Ding, he has been an official, he has fought in wars, he has an aggressive aura on his body, he has a straight face, and he is not angry but powerful.

The city gate official was really frightened by Zhu You, and felt that the man in front of him did not look like an ordinary person, so he took a closer look at Liu Xiu and gasped.

Although Liu Xiu's temperament is elegant and courteous, he already has the momentum of a superior. It's hard to describe, and it feels like he's supposed to be the one on top.

The city gate official shrunk his neck, his mind turned, he arched his hand, and asked with a smile: "I don't know who Your Excellency is?" ”

"I am an envoy of the Son of Heaven! On the order of the Son of Heaven, the governor of Zhuo County, passing by you Raoyang today, are you going to prevent us from entering the city? Liu Xiu's tone was very calm, but the momentum on his body was even more sufficient, and even the soldiers standing on both sides could feel the pressure coming from him.
