Chapter 17 Liu Bei lost his mother
Liu Bei, the anti-thief officer of Zhuo County, used the veterans among the villagers to clean up the Wuji Mountain bandits, and removed a major pest for Zhuo County, and the news spread throughout Zhuo County again. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe people of Zhuo County were shocked and happy, and they talked after dinner: "Who is this Liu Bei?" Someone asked.
"Phew! Liu Bei, you don't even know? A few years ago in the county seat, Liu Bei once recaptured a bag of piglets for an old woman and was ready to buy food money, but later found out that the gangster who robbed the old woman of the money was to treat the injuries of the little gangster's eldest brother. One of them replied.
The questioner said: "Alas! This Liu Bei is benevolent and righteous! ”
Another said: "You don't know! Later, this little gangster was influenced by Liu Bei and volunteered to become Liu Bei's little follower, and now he has become an anti-thief officer? ”
Another person replied, "What is this?" The year before last, Zhongshan Dashang was surrounded by bandits from Wuji Mountain in Zhuo County, or did Liu Bei lead people to save him? At that time, there were nearly 300 bandits, Liu Bei only used a trick, sent a few people to the bandits' mountain and set a fire, and the bandits who were robbing at the bottom of the mountain thought that the officers and soldiers were attacking the mountain and hurriedly retreated. Liu Bei took advantage of the situation and led people to rush into the thief formation, and rushed to kill, killing the bandits and returning with a big defeat, and several leaders were killed at that time, leaving a few horses. When these bandits hurried back to the village, they found that there were no officers and soldiers there, only a few fires in front of the village, and they shouted that they were deceived. ”
"What about the big merchants? Are you injured? Another person asked questions.
A person next to him said: "Liu Bei came in time, Dashang was only a little injured, and there was no big problem." In order to thank Liu Bei for saving his life, he was ready to be rewarded with a hundred catties of gold, but Liu Bei did not accept it, but others persuaded him: "Some warriors who came with me have worked hard!" "I took a little bit, and finally gave all the money to the thugs who came with me and his playmates."
"Alas! If I go, won't I get some money? "Someone went out of his way.
At this time, someone lowered his voice and said: "I also heard that Liu Bei was only sixteen or seventeen years ago when he just returned from studying at Donglai Zheng University to visit his mother, and the Zhongshan merchant was surrounded by a group of hungry people. Liu Bei saw that the hungry people were pitiful, so he gave all the money from his study to the hungry people.
The first two years were the second time Liu Bei rescued the Zhongshan businessman. Later, when the Zhongshan businessman came to Zhuo County, he would visit Liu Bei with a very respectful attitude. He knew that Liu Bei's brothers had specially bought a few good horses from Wu Heng and sent them over, and even the kid from the Zhang family who sold meat followed them? ”
The person who was the first to ask sighed and said, "This Liu Bei is really kind, benevolent and righteous!" Righteousness! ”
Another said: "Not only is it benevolent and kind, but the most important thing is to be brave and strategic, and to exterminate all the hundreds of bandits without injuring a single soldier." That's because the officers and soldiers of Zhuo County have gone to the conquest and suppression several times, and not only have they injured people, but also killed a lot? Every time, he was defeated by the bandits. ”
These praises are not only in the mouths of the villagers, but also among the villagers, gentry, and wealthy families inside and outside Zhuoxian County: "This Liu Bei is brave and resourceful at a young age, and he is worthy of being a disciple of Dr. Lu." A few years ago, when he was teaching students in Luoyang, Dr. Lu had a discerning eye, and among those students, he only listed Liu Bei and Gongsun Cheng as disciples and asked for advice alone. Within a few years, Gongsun Zan became the county magistrate of Zhuo County, and Liu Bei became so famous. ”
Someone said: "Dr. Lu is both civil and military, and the disciples he handed over are really extraordinary." ”
"Wow!! It seems like your child was among those people at that time! But he was not accepted as a disciple by Dr. Lu. It shows that Dr. Lu's vision is burning. One of them said inadvertently.
"You --, my son is not a weapon, and your son is no better than that, it's not the same that you haven't been accepted as a disciple." The man shot back.
Seeing that the two were about to fight, the other stood up and said, "Forget it! Never mind! Dr. Lu can be named a doctor by the Son of Heaven, which is naturally extraordinary. can see the talents of Liu Bei and Gongsun, so it is naturally not a problem. failed to accept you and other sons as disciples, naturally because of your and other sons' qualifications, what is there to quarrel about? ”
Both of them looked at the man angrily at the same time.
The man knew that he had said the wrong thing again, so he stood up and said, "All right! Count me wrong! You keep arguing, I'm leaving! ”
Liu Bei used the old pawns among the villagers to exterminate the largest group of bandits in Zhuo County, and the county commander Gongsun Zan was naturally happy.
This is not only Liu Bei is his brother, but also because of the credit for exterminating the bandits.
Gongsun Zhan called Liu Bei over and praised him well, saying that he must have taken credit for him, and complained that he didn't notify him when he went to suppress the thief, so that he could also enjoy it. ”
When everyone praised Liu Bei, Liu Bei had the saddest thing on the table.
Liu Bei's mother died due to ineffective medical treatment.
When the news came, there was a lot of discussion among the people, among whom the gentry and wealthy families talked the most: talents must be born to their relatives. And lo and behold! When Liu Bei was born, his grandfather died. A few years later, my father also died. Now the Liu family is just right, and my mother has also gone. After speaking, he shook and sighed.
Liu Bei found Gongsun Zhan and offered to resign.
Gongsun Zhan knew that his virtuous brother had always attached importance to filial piety, and he did not persuade him, but only asked him to pay attention to his body, mourn and change, and personally went to Liu Zhuang to pay tribute.
Later, Gongsun Zhan asked Liu Bei who he could hand over to the thief, and Liu Bei said: "Zhang Xiang is good!" ”
So Zhang Xiang accepted the post of anti-thief after assisting Liu Bei in the funeral.
Since his mother went, Liu Bei has been filial piety to his mother, studying and practicing martial arts in his spare time, pondering the experience of the past few years, and has gained a lot.
Liu Yi saw that this nephew was becoming more and more mature and famous, and he faintly revealed something extraordinary, and suddenly remembered what the diviner said, "My son Liu Shi had a catastrophe at the age of fifteen, and he was very sad. But the heavenly machine is fifty, and everything is forty-nine, leaving a glimmer of life.
There are two nobles who are vaguely rescued, and different nobles will be met in different places, and the results will be very different, and the future cannot be calculated.
It is recommended that Liu Shi try to go east at the age of fourteen, and go to a close relative in the east to avoid disasters at the age of fifteen.
Repeatedly told you to go to your loved ones in the East. Only in that direction will you meet nobles, and not in other directions. It is impossible to know who the noble person is, but it can only be said that there is a faint trace of destiny calling. After the age of fifteen, it's all dark, and you can't see anything. We must educate Liu Shi to study more, practice martial arts diligently, be generous and benevolent, don't be impatient, do more good deeds, and maybe have unexpected changes. ”
Liu Yi thought of this, "Remember that Liu Shi is almost fourteen years old, this kid has been wandering around with his eldest brother in the past few years, competing with Zhang Fei, who sells meat, and his martial arts have gradually risen, and even his eldest brother Liu Bei said that if it continues to rise like this, even he will not be an opponent in another year." In this way, Liu Shi practiced even more energetically, and a sense of pride rose in his heart, but he forgot about reading. According to the diviner, this is not a good thing! ”
Thinking of this, she asked people to call Liu, and she was worried that after telling her these things, she was anxious, so she didn't mention it.
Liu asked, "Husband! What did you call me? ”
Liu Yi said: "Your eldest brother is old this year?" You haven't been back in a few years, right? ”
Liu's eyes were red, and he lowered his head and said: "I think that although my eldest brother is a lot older than me, he is the most blind date with me, although he is a concubine and has no hope of inheriting the family business, but my eldest brother is diligent, full of poetry and books, and he is a petty official in the county with his talents, and his life is worry-free, and he dotes on me."
Later, the eldest brother met the family and promised me to you.
I'm forty-five this year, so I'm almost sixty when I count my eldest brother! Yanzhou is far away from Youzhou, and since coming to Youzhou, it has only been back three times.
Alas! I don't know what happened to my eldest brother! Last year, I wrote that my health was getting worse! I want to do a birthday next year, but I'm afraid that we have no one to go to. ”
