Chapter 196: Liu Feng's Decision

Liu Feng was sitting upright in the side hall at the moment, waiting to be summoned.

While waiting, the unbearable experience of these days does not reverberate in his mind.

Two months ago, the Wei general Xu Huang attacked Shangyong, and the Shen brothers immediately responded with troops. The two of them were originally old bureaucrats of the Wei State, and Liu Feng had already predicted this result.

His army was taken away by Jiang Wei, and all he could rely on was the four thousand Dongzhou soldiers under Meng Da. But the hateful thing is that Meng Da actually chose to surrender, and tried to persuade him to surrender together!

Liu Feng has always regarded himself as a loyal minister of the Han family and the righteous son of the king of Hanzhong, where is he willing to give in? immediately refused, and then under the desperate protection of the guards, he fought his way out of the encirclement.

Then a group of more than 100 people fled to the north, all the way over the mountains and mountains, sleeping in the open air, and after walking hundreds of miles of Qinling mountain roads, they finally arrived in Hanzhong, Shu realm.

During the breakout period, they once faced encirclement and suppression, getting lost, running out of food, and being attacked by wild beasts.

Among the more than 100 people, only a dozen escaped alive, and this escape experience can really be described as a life of nine deaths.

When Liu Feng thought of this, he hated Jiang Wei who took away his troops and Meng Da, who surrendered on his knees, and thought that after seeing his father for a while, he would definitely sue him fiercely.

Thinking of his father Liu Bei, Liu Feng suddenly remembered the words of Kou Xun who accompanied him.

Kou Xun is a confidant of his family, and he will never abandon him on the way to escape, and he swears to follow him to the death.

But whoever has a bite to eat, he will surely be allowed to eat first; But if there is a horse, let him ride it. As the so-called road knows the horsepower, and the people have seen the hearts of the people for a long time, Kou Xun can be said to be a great loyal minister.

But he is such a loyal minister, but after getting out of danger, he has been persuading him to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors.

Liu Feng knew that his identity was very embarrassing at the moment, and recognizing his ancestors and returning to his ancestors was a good way to wash away the suspicion of being infected with the storage position.

His original surname is Kou, and his ancestors are Kou in Luo County, Changsha County, Jingzhou. The Kou family is also a wealthy family in the local area, and recognizing his ancestors and returning to his ancestors will not disgrace his reputation.

But he hoped to first make great contributions to the great cause of reviving the Han dynasty and prove his talent to the people of the world, and then make this request to the king of Hanzhong in a dignified manner, so as to slap the faces of those who looked down on him.

It's just that on the way here, he also learned about the Battle of Yiling, and the Han failed to recapture Jingzhou after all, but lost Guan Yu and Shangyong County.

These things have a lot to do with him, and Liu Feng couldn't help but feel a little uneasy when he thought of this.

But he thought about it, it was Jiang Wei who seized the military power first, Meng Da surrendered later, and he himself was also the victim.

"My father has always been able to distinguish between right and wrong, and he will surely be able to understand his own suffering."

was comforting himself, walked into a eunuch, and said that he was summoned to meet him by the will of the king of Hanzhong.

Liu Feng immediately gathered his mind, cheered up, and entered the palace with the eunuch.

Entering the hall, at first glance when he saw Liu Bei's figure, he felt a burst of admiration in his heart, "plopped" and knelt on the ground, took a step with his knees, and walked in front of Liu Bei on his knees, tears like a spring.

"Father! God is pitiful, and finally taught the child to escape with his life and be able to see his father in person again! ”

In Liu Bei's impression, Liu Feng is a young man who is rich and jade, and he has seen each other again after only half a year, but he is already yellow and thin, and he is described as withered, thinking that he has suffered a lot on the road.

After many years of father-son love, Liu Bei's hardened heart suddenly softened a little, and after sighing, he bent down to help him up.

"But I have suffered a lot, and I have risen to speak."

Liu Feng hugged Liu Bei's legs and continued to cry: "I still hope that my father will be the master of the child!" ”

Liu Bei frowned secretly, and said in his heart, if you don't save Guan Yu in front and bully Meng Da in the back, what else do you want to do for you?

But Liu Feng couldn't kneel for a long time, so he had to say sullenly: "What grievances do you have?" There was already three points of dissatisfaction in his tone.

Liu Feng didn't notice it at all, and cried to himself: "The child wants to sue Yulin Zuocheng, Jiang Wei, Jiang Boyo!" This person pretended to be in the name of his father to snatch the child's military power! There are no soldiers and generals in the hands of the child, and the three counties of Shangyong are not guaranteed! ”

"The child also wants to sue Meng Da, Shen Tan, and Shen Yi, three rebellious ministers and thieves, who were greatly favored by their fathers, but turned their backs on the Lord to seek glory and defected to the enemy and treason......"

Liu Feng was resentful, and immediately said the resentment in his heart.

People have the instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and when they tell a wrong story, they usually shift the blame to others, so as to clear their own suspicions.

Liu Feng is simple-minded, and he consciously fell into the Shangyong incident, and he is also an innocent victim, and the initiators of this matter are Jiang Wei, Meng Da, Shen Tan, and Shen Yi.

Therefore, his words sounded to him, which could be described as bloody and sonorous; But to Liu Bei's ears, it obviously became Liu Feng's excuse.

For Liu Bei, Jiang Wei took the initiative to report the seizure of power, and Jiang Wei only had merit and no fault; With Meng Da playing again, it is also a fact that Liu Feng is bullying and domineering.

Therefore, Liu Fengsheng burst into tears and talked endlessly, but Liu Bei became more and more angry the more he listened, and finally suddenly shouted: "Enough!" ”

Liu Feng was shocked when he heard this, and he suddenly stopped full of grievances, and only looked at his father with a pair of suspicious eyes.

But seeing Liu Bei's angry face, he said hatefully: "Yun Chang is an orphan brother and your uncle, but you refused to send troops for your own selfish desires, causing Yun Chang to be in danger, what can this son of man do?" ”

"Meng Da is cunning and knows it alone, so he entrusted you with the heavy task of supervising, but you relied on your identity and bullied him! Do you know that half of Meng Da's surrender to Wei was forced by you! ”

Liu Feng didn't expect Liu Bei to react like this, and he was dumbfounded for a moment and froze in place.

He immediately realized that it must be Jiang Wei and Meng Da who sued first, and his resentment suddenly rose to the sky, and he had to explain, and his face also showed resentment and dissatisfaction.

Seeing this, Liu Bei's words flashed in his mind, and Liu Chan's generous appearance flashed, and he couldn't help but be even more displeased, his eyes were slightly closed, his brows were furrowed, and his heart was murderous.

After all, Liu Feng has served Liu Bei for more than ten years, and he knows his father's habit very well, and when he looks up and sees Liu Bei's expression, he knows that he has moved to kill.

"Father wants to kill me?"

Thinking of this, the grievances and resentment in Liu Feng's heart suddenly disappeared, his head was empty, and the only thing that came to mind was Meng Da's words of persuasion on the eve of Shangyong's breakthrough:

"It is not proper for you to give up your father and mother to become someone else's heir; It is unwise to cling to the knowledge that calamity is coming; It is not right to doubt the right way but not to do it. He claims to be a big husband, but he does these three things, where is the value? With your talents, abandon Shu Dongdong and inherit the title of Marquis Luo, this is not a betrayal of relatives; Beifeng is the king and maintains Gangchang, which is not an abandonment of the old master; In this way, although the king of Hanzhong will be angry, he will not do anything to you, and you can avoid your own danger and death, not to mention a futile move. ”

Liu Feng's heart flashed, and he said in his heart: "Didn't you let Meng Da say it accurately?" Could it be that I, Liu Feng, returned to Shuzhong with all the hardships and dangers, and I wanted to seek a way to die? ”

"I was wholeheartedly assisting my father, and I didn't have the intention of getting involved in the storage position, how did I end up like this......"

Under repeated stimulation, Liu Feng was stunned and speechless.

He suddenly remembered what Kou Xun said on the road to "recognize the ancestors and return to the ancestors", and suddenly blessed his soul, realizing that this is his only vitality at the moment.

But seeing that Liu Feng took a deep breath, his face was expressionless, respectfully bowed to the ground, and said in a deep voice:

Feng Zi knows that his sins are serious, and the death penalty is inevitable, and he has no shame to call himself the righteous son of the Lord again. I implore the lord to expel him from his home and then give him the death penalty, so as not to tarnish his name. ”

He said this very solemnly, but the excitement in his tone was difficult to hide.

Liu Bei had never seen him so discouraged, his compassion rose again, he stood upright for a long time, and the sentence "give the seal to death, make self-determination" in his mouth still failed to say after all.

After a long time, he sighed, waved his hand, and said exhaustedly: "You go back to the house and close the door to be guilty." Don't go out a step without being told to do so. ”

******

Seeing Liu Feng's dejected back, he walked out of the hall step by step, and Liu Bei had palpitations for no reason.

He is old and always likes to reminisce about the past.

I still remember the first time I saw Liu Feng, when he was still living in the small town of Xinye, which belonged to Liu Biao.

One day, Fancheng County ordered Liu Mi to set up a banquet to celebrate his achievements, and there was a mighty young man in the banquet, asking his name, only to know that it was Liu Mi's grandson Kou Feng.

When serving, the cook accidentally dropped the meat on the ground, Kou Feng picked it up, turned around and threw it in his mouth to eat. This move caught his attention.

Afterwards, he asked Kou Feng: "When you see the meat on the ground, what does it mean to swallow it casually?"

Kou Feng replied: "As a general, you should always pity the people, the grain of rice and meat is not easy to come by, it is a pity to abandon it, the soldiers and cooks, tired all day long, suffer more than enough, occasionally make mistakes, and endure and reprimand." ”

He was deeply moved and appreciated by Kou Feng's virtues, so he accepted him as his adopted son and renamed him Liu Feng.

Later, Liu Feng was not only very respectful to himself, but also studied hard, and eventually became a leader of the younger generation.

"If it weren't for the battle for the storage position, it wouldn't have come to this point."

Liu Bei shook his head, raised his sleeve and gently wiped it at the corner of his eye.

At this moment, a rush of footsteps sounded. followed the prestige, but saw that Zhuge Liang, who had just retired, went and returned, and came quickly.

Liu Bei thought that he was here to ask about Liu Feng, so he waved his hand helplessly and said:

"Kong Ming doesn't have to worry, Gu has decided to let Feng'er recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors......"

How do you know that Zhuge Liang didn't hear it, and lowered his head and said: "Lord Qiqi, Jiang Wei is back, and he is waiting to see him in the side hall!" ”

When Liu Bei heard this, his spirit perked up slightly, and he said, "Boyo is back?" I don't bring him quickly. ”
