Liu Feng was a little disappointed, it's good to be poor and short-minded, but it can't be so short that even self-confidence is gone. With a slight sigh, he bent down and picked up the piece of dough on the ground. The man was about to thank Liu Feng, when he saw the dough in Liu Feng's hand, his face was ashamed, his black and thin face was instantly red, and he said in a snort: "In the next, in the next place, I have always eaten less, and I can't finish the lunch meal for a while, and I can't bear to throw away ......."

"Hehe, a mile of rice, it is not easy to come by. Brother Nian cherishes food, it is not a shameful thing, I think when I was young, it was this kind of dough, mixed with wheat husk, and it can only be eaten during the New Year to worship ancestors. Liu Feng smiled slightly and handed the small piece of dough back to him. And the state is rough, many people are actually still hungry and full, looking at this person's face with vegetables, which is not enough to eat, it is simply taken home to support the family.

The man glanced at Liu Feng gratefully, took the dough, thanked him, and turned to leave. Wei Xing was a little puzzled, his eyes flickered, and he looked at Liu Feng as if he had reacquainted himself. Liu Feng's mind had already flown away, he gently closed the scroll in his hand, and smiled at Cai Yan: "I just have a piece of Chen to say to Mr. Cai, I didn't mean to meet Miss Cai here, so I asked Miss Cai to forward it to Mr. Cai on my behalf!"

Seeing that the people on the side were stunned and looked at themselves, obviously their daughter's body had been exposed, Cai Yan's face turned red, and he also said: "I happen to have something to ask for advice...... Well, you and I will go together, shall we? ”

Wei Xing's eyes crossed a gloomy color, and he sighed softly. Liu Feng glanced at the two of them a little strangely, I don't know what is going on with these two, but after all, it is someone else's private matter, so he didn't ask much, shook his head and said: "I still have something to do, so I won't go with the two of you, this matter is also simple, just need the two of you to tell me on my behalf." Well, most of the books in the library are unique books, if there is a mistake, the consequences are unimaginable, I will ask the Taishou Mansion to transfer money, grain, paper and ink, and ask Mr. Cai to organize the students of the college to copy a few more copies, and keep them separately. ”

Cai Yan was slightly stunned, she was ice and snow smart, and she also lived in the rivers and lakes with Cai Yong when she was a child, she was not the kind of porcelain doll who didn't know the hardships of the people, how could she not understand the meaning of Liu Feng's doing, she looked thoughtfully at the direction of the black and thin student's departure, and said with deep approval: "I thank you on behalf of all my classmates...... Finish. ”

In fact, Cai Yan is a woman after all, and she is not a member of Zhengxin Academy, but these people are all students of Cai Yong, and it is not wrong to say that they are classmates. Liu Feng couldn't imagine that she would understand what she meant quickly, and couldn't help but feel a little lost in his heart, so he bowed to the two of them lightly, and said with a smile: "This, please leave it to you!" Then he turned and left.

Cai Yan opened his mouth, as if he had something to say, but in the end he still didn't say it, just watched his back turn out. Wei Xing's heart was sour, and he accompanied her to return the book, silent all the way.

Out of the academy, facing the inscription of Cai Yong's handwriting in front of the gate, Cai Yan stopped slightly, stunned.

"Wen Ji wants to ask, who can write such strange texts, so that Mr. sighs to himself, and also, write it on his behalf and engrave it in front of the gate of this academy?" Wei Xing stared at the faint white clouds in the sky, said astringently, and didn't wait for Cai Yan to answer, he smiled to himself and said, "Actually, you don't need to ask more, who else can it be besides him." ”

"Nakado?" Cai Yan called lightly, but his gaze was a little wandering.

Wei Xing's throat was blocked, and he couldn't say anything anymore when he was full of words.

…………

In Liu Bei's study, Tian Feng and Zhong Xuan sat in separate directions.

"Bo Jue's strengths, and I deeply hate Bo'an Gong for funding the outside of the Saiwai to harm his big things, and I hated Bo'an Gong to the bone, how can I be able to say it in a few words." Liu Bei said in embarrassment, looking at Tian Feng's beard half white, Zhong Xuan's face was also a little vain, he felt a lot of guilt in his heart, and he was a little lacking in confidence when he spoke. There are not many talented people around him, except for Tian Feng is Zhong Xuan, and the huge burden is on the two of them.

"Or ask the lord to write a letter and send it to Gongsun Boju, with the difficulties of our waiting." Tian Feng was unmoved, and still said.

Liu Bei was a little strange: "Why is this?" Knowing that it is useless...... "He has always relied on Tian Feng, although Tian Feng speaks toughly, he doesn't care.

"Liu Bo'an is not the enemy of Gongsun Boju, and besides, Gongsun Bojun has sent his younger brother Gongsun Yue to lead 3,000 Youyan elites to the south to help Yuan Shu fight for Yuzhou, and openly make enemies of Yuan Shao. Once Gongsun Boju has Youzhou, he will inevitably start a full-scale war with Yuan Shao, and at that time, I will inevitably be involved in it, and I foolishly think that with the current situation of my state, it is not suitable to fight with Yuan Shao!"

Liu Bei nodded and motioned for Tian Feng to go down. In fact, this is the most worrying thing he has been doing for the past few days, not to mention that the winter belongings of those newly displaced people have not yet been settled, how can they have the spare strength to support a war. Especially with Jizhou Mu Yuan Shao as an enemy, and there is a Dong Zhuo in the west.

Zhong Xuan looked at Tian Feng with some concern, he also knew Tian Feng's thoughts, and when he came over, he didn't think that Tian Feng could persuade Liu Bei, but he couldn't stop Tian Feng.

"Once Gongsun Boqi and Yuan Shao have the possibility of fighting, the lord can send another letter to Gongsun Bojue, asking him to guard the door and not compete with Yuan Shao. In addition, he repaired the book with Yuan Shao, and said that they were ally and friendly with each other, and the state had no intention of being an enemy of him, so please ask him to quit the army!"

"What if Bo Jue doesn't agree?" Liu Bei frowned, but he already understood what Tian Feng meant, and the effect of this letter was roughly behind this. has known Gongsun Chan for more than ten years, Liu Bei does not think that Gongsun Chan is a person who can be soft, once he recognizes the matter, let alone others can persuade him, even he Liu Bei can't.

"Absolute Gong Sun Zhan!" Tian Feng cut the road categorically.

"Huh?" Liu Bei glanced at Tian Feng, then looked at Zhong Xuan, who was a little worried, shook his head resolutely, and said, "If it is for the sake of merging states, it is indeed understandable according to what Yuan Hao said. It's just that Bo Jue has a great favor with me, and he is Cheng Ze's father-in-law, how can I kill him? Now Bo Jue and Bo An Gong are evil, Bo An Gong is also kind to me, I can still help each other, if Bo Jue and Yuan Benchu are evil, I have no reason to sit idly by. And if I really kill him, how will the world think of me? ”

"Lord, Gongsun Boqi does not listen to good words, self-destruction, even if he is kind to the lord, it is also a private relationship, the lord is to recuperate and recuperate, it is a long-term plan, the lord wants to cause peace in the world, how can he be so kind to a woman?" Seeing Liu Bei's refusal, Tian Feng was a little anxious and stood up on his feet.

Liu Bei was a little aggrieved, but he still shook his head and said, "Yuan Hao doesn't need to say it, after all, things haven't reached that point yet, and it's not impossible to turn around." ”

Tian Feng was stunned: "Lord, everything should be prepared for a rainy day, if you make a decision when it comes to the matter, it will be too late!"

Liu Bei was silent, stood up, paced back and forth a few steps, walked to the window, looked out the window at the willows, swaying, turned around, and said, "Even if I show weakness to Yuan Shao again, he will not rest assured of me." Since Yuan Shao and I are going to have a battle sooner or later, instead of waiting for Yuan Shao to destroy Bo Jue and then calmly attack, why not join forces with Bo Jue to fight him at this opportunity? ”

Tian Feng was stunned and said: "What our army is worried about is just Xin'an, which is not enough food and grass, and there are millions of people who have no emergency supplies for this winter. If the lord is bent on preparing for war, then the people of the state will not be able to prepare all the things they can save for the winter, and in the event of a natural disaster, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Liu Bei hesitated, Tian Feng said that it was also true, and the financial resources of Bingzhou were limited, if it was because of his single-minded preparation for war but he missed the disaster relief preparations, once the natural disaster came, the people of Bingzhou who had just settled down would inevitably suffer heavy casualties, how could he feel at ease? After thinking about it, he softened his voice and said: "It's better to do this, we can divide our troops into two ways, on the one hand, we can prepare for this winter emergency, and the other is also hurry up to prepare for war, and both sides must not be mistaken." ”

Tian Feng smiled bitterly: "Lord, even if we are preparing this thing for the winter, I am afraid that it will be difficult to be comprehensive." Tian Feng didn't know what kind of evil consequences would arise if Yuan Shao occupied Youzhou and Gongsun Chan was missing the strong reinforcement of Gongsun Zhan, but with the financial resources of Bingzhou, he really couldn't support a war in the short term, and the safest way was nothing more than Gongsun Zhan taking the initiative to strike the army, and the families would be fine.

Liu Bei also understood the difficulties of Tian Feng and the others, and comforted them with a smile: "The two of you just need to do your best, I will write a book by myself, and let people send it to Bo Jue quickly, and tell him the priority, if Bo Jue can stop the army, it would be the best." ”

Tian Feng thought about it, and was about to speak, Zhong Xuan gently pulled off his shirt, and said to Liu Bei: "Our army can prepare 5,000 people for three months, and the rest, wait for the situation to be clear." ”

"It's okay, it's hard work." Liu Bei knew that this was the only way, nodded to the two of them, thought about it, and said: "Three months is too little, five months, the soldiers and horses can be reduced to three thousand." "Three months for 5,000 people and five months for 3,000 people are different concepts, in which the material mix, seasonal herb equipment, etc., there is a lot to be done.

"Yes!" The two looked at each other and took the order to leave.

Leaving Liu Bei's study, Tian Feng glanced at Zhong Xuan and said, "Yuan Chang, what are you going to do?" ”

"Since the lord has entrusted this matter to you and me, it is naturally up to you and me to decide what to do." Zhong Miao smiled slightly, and said disapprerovitously, he only wanted to have a clear conscience in doing things, and he was not worried about the punishment of the lord afterwards.

"If Gongsun Chan is in danger, what should I do?" Tian Feng realized something and said with a frown. The soldiers and horses did not move, and the grain and grass went first, but this kind of thing was not negligent at all.

"Then, only if you hide it from the lord and Chengze first, how long can you hide it!" Zhong Xuan hesitated slightly, looked at no one on the left and right, and said resolutely.

Tian Feng is not a rigid person, nodded when he heard this, and said, "It seems that it can only be like this." ”
