Chapter 36: Dare to ask where the road is

When Lu Bu and the others arrived at Cai's mansion, they learned that Cai Yong and the others had fled Chang'an with Chu Feng.

"Alas, it's a pity!"

Chen Gong sighed, but he didn't feel too pity, he was just a teenager with some talent.

Now that he has fled, he can't catch up now, and he will waste time, seeing that Lu Bu doesn't care, Chen Gong is not continuing to worry about this problem.

Chu Feng, who had already arrived in Luoyang City, naturally didn't know that he had escaped, and now the question he faced was how to take this opportunity to escape back to Zhongshan, or not to return to Zhongshan, and make another plan.

"Yuan Shao in the north is very strong, and if he goes back now, it shouldn't have much impact, after all, he is very low-key.

A character like Yuan Shao is not enough to value a child like himself, and there should be no big problem when he returns to Zhongshan.

But the master is old, and he definitely can't stand the environment there, it's too cold, and it is estimated that the senior sister is not suitable for it.

Moreover, Cao Cao is still in the development stage and has not yet grown, so it should be a good time to defect at this time. ”

Chu Feng has been thinking about these two questions in his heart, and now he has escaped from Chang'an safely, and then there are two roads to go ahead, one is to return to Zhongshan, and the other is to go to Cao Cao.

Today's Cao Cao has not occupied Chongzhou, nor has he coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and he is still in Dongjun to exterminate the last Yellow Turban thief, so to go to him at this time is to assist him when he is most vulnerable, and when he becomes strong, this friendship will not be forgotten.

If he defeated Yuan Shao, there must have been many strategists around Cao Cao at that time, and he was like this, just relying on his ability to predict the future, he would definitely not be as good as those real strategists.

"It's better to go to Cao Cao now, with the master here, even if I am smart or evil, I can be regarded as having an excuse.

It won't make Cao Cao have too much suspicion and jealousy, besides, I can also continue to keep a low profile, come to a boiled frog in warm water, and plan well, it's not impossible.

So it was decided. ”

Chu Feng didn't dwell on it for too long, found a place to write three letters, handed them to the people of the Zhen family on the road, asked them to take them back, and then began to explain his plans to Cai Yong.

"Master, the disciple wants to go to Cao Cao, I don't know if the master can give some advice."

Cai Yong sighed all the way, he really felt sorry for his books, which were his life's collections, and he could only hope that the war in Chang'an would not affect his mansion.

Even if it is eventually occupied by someone else, pray that the owner will cherish those books.

is in a bad mood, and naturally he doesn't have a good color for Chu Feng, if it weren't for Cai Yan's kind words and persuasion, Cai Yong would probably have to go on a diet and resist.

"Mengde? It's okay, there is nothing to teach as a teacher now, you can do whatever you want. ”

Cai Yong heard that Chu Feng wanted to go to Cao Cao, but his heart moved, and then he thought of what Chu Feng had done, and he was a little angry.

Chu Feng twitched, Cai Yong is also in his fifties now, and he will be sixty soon, such an age is already an advanced age in this era.

The older the man, the smaller his mind becomes.

Chu Feng didn't expect that Cai Yong was still angry, and he didn't feel like a great Confucian, but that was also the beginning, his current appearance was not angry, but like a child, he lost his temper.

The people who were going to go north began to go south, but the road was not peaceful, because there was a war going on here, and the remnants of the Yellow Turban Thieves had not been eliminated, and Cao Cao and others were fighting the Yellow Turban Thieves here.

So along the way, you can see ruined villages, as well as those ragged people, funerals everywhere, and the whole air is full of dilapidated atmosphere, which makes it difficult for people to breathe.

"The peaks are like gathering, the waves are like fury,

Mountains and rivers surface Tongguan Road.

Wangxidu,

Hesitation.

Sad Qin and Han meridians,

The palace and all the rooms were made of soil.

prosper

The people suffered;

lose

The people are bitter. ”

Chu Feng, who had never seen such a scene, felt some sadness in addition to shock.

The happy life of the people of later generations is simply heaven, but the people of today are in hell.

They didn't have warm clothes, but they were able to withstand the wind and cold, and they didn't have a bowl of white rice to fill their stomachs.

The house was destroyed by the Yellow Turban thieves, destroyed by the war, and the prime of life was forcibly pulled into the army, became soldiers, went to the battlefield, and there were few people who could come back.

The rest are the old and infirm, who could have been able to harvest the season, but because there was no one, the agricultural materials that grew in the fields were not recovered in time, and most of them eventually rotted in the fields.

The expressions of the elderly and children are numb and indifferent, they don't know what their lives will be like in the future, and they don't even know what their tomorrow will be like, there is no safety guarantee at all, and in the next second, they may starve to death or freeze to death.

Chu Feng's momentary feeling made Cai Yong, Cai Yan and others feel shocked, happy, and the people are bitter; Death, the people suffer.

Being able to say such words is enough to show that Chu Feng's heart is concerned about the people and is a kind person, and he has the world in mind at a young age, and if he says such words, he will naturally be able to see his future achievements, if a person like him can be in a high position, it will definitely be a blessing for the people of the world.

"Alas, it's my fault, it's my obsession, I didn't expect the life of the people outside Chang'an City to be like this.

In the past, I have seen the places where the Yellow Turban thieves passed, and it was as chaotic as it is now, and the people were as hungry and unclothed as they are now.

At that time, I thought it was the fault of those people in the Han court, who only knew how to play with power and never cared about the lives of the people.

Later, Dong Zhuo was recruited, and I thought I could go back to that place, get rid of those people, and let the people of the world live a good life.

I thought about doing this, too, but when I got to that court, I realized that it was all just wishful thinking.

There, what else can you do besides playing with power?

What makes the people live a good life is just an unrealistic idea, there is no unity in the world, and the decisions made there cannot be conveyed to the local government at all, so I just want to write classics, and leave some classics that can educate people and inherit my Central Plains culture. ”

Cai Yong's mood is very complicated, on the one hand, he wants to let the people live a good life, but on the other hand, he has to go against his heart because of the whirlpool land in the court.

In the end, he could only pin his ideals on books, and wanted to write classic works like Ban Chao and Sima Qian and others.

Now after seeing the lives of these people, I thought of my original ideals, and for a while, my mood was even more sad.

And Cai Yan, who has never gone out and has never seen this kind of scene, was also silent along the way.

Cai Yan, who became a virgin, didn't know how many people she had helped along the way, but it was still a drop in the bucket.

Hearing Chu Feng's words, there were already tears in her eyes, she was a kind-hearted person, and she was sad when she saw those skinny children who were unclothed and skinny.

Chu Feng comforted: "No, Master is not wrong, what is wrong is this era!" ”
