Taishou Mansion, in a partial room. Liu Feng is slowly checking his hometown. Next to him stood an older officer.

Liu Bei's official position is very high, General Zuo, Yuzhou pastor. However, the actual jurisdiction is only in Nino Prefecture. Of course, Liu Bei himself will not personally manage government affairs.

Some trivial affairs are in charge of this little official next to him.

Of course, Liu Feng would not be stupid to wander around Xinye and inquire about Deng Ai's whereabouts. As long as you check in the room where the household registration is recorded, you will definitely be able to find Deng Ai's whereabouts.

Deng Ai was born in the Xinye clan.

With the place of origin to be consulted, Liu Feng only needs to know this item.

With the help of the little officials, Liu Feng checked all the families surnamed Deng in Xinye, and only found one big family. It is Dengjia Village, fifty miles west of Xinye.

Most of the people there have the surname Deng, and they are all an ethnic group. It's huge.

Who Deng Ai is, Liu Feng doesn't know yet, so he can only check it slowly.

Putting down the bamboo slips, Liu Feng said goodbye to this little official. He returned to his own house.

In the room, Liu Feng asked Huan'er to put on civilian clothes, put on shoes, and hang up a sword.

Standing in front of the bronze mirror, Huan'er looked at Liu Feng's figure in the bronze mirror, and said with crooked eyebrows: "The young general is dressed like this, it is estimated that even his wife will be stunned when he sees it." ”

Inside the bronze mirror is a temperament that is completely different from the usual Liu Feng.

In the past, Liu Feng often wore formal clothes, his demeanor was calm, and his manners were polite. Nothing goes beyond the pool. But Liu Feng at this time is a beautiful young man.

Listening to Huan'er's admiration, Liu Feng looked at the figure in the bronze mirror, and couldn't help but wonder a little.

Maybe it's really too much to think about, and I feel too much admiration for my surname. This time, it is difficult to go out to breathe, you don't have to face Liu Bei, you don't have to face Gan, Xu Shu and others, you don't have to think about it in advance, and the surname of the suppressed can't help but rebound a little.

If you have the chance, go out and take a breath of the outside air. Liu Feng thought in his heart, and at the same time, an irrepressible desire rose in Liu Feng's heart.

Only in the absence of Liu Bei, I don't have to suppress my surname.

This terrible thought was suppressed by Liu Feng as soon as it arose, what he is doing now is to protect Liu Bei's thigh, and it will definitely not end well to fight against Liu Bei.

Putting away the evil thoughts that suddenly rose in his heart, Liu Feng smiled at Huan'er and said, "Inform the guards, get ready to go." ”

"Yes." Huan'er nodded, saluted dignifiedly, and walked out.

Outside the main gate of the Taishou Mansion, Liu Feng knelt on an ordinary carriage. There were eleven guards on his side. Plus a coachman.

These guards were all unusually strong, wearing leather armor and looking indifferent. At a glance, it can be seen that it is a sharp force in the army.

These are all arranged by the Gan family, after all, the world is not peaceful now, and it is the first time for Liu Feng to play alone in Xinye, so he always has to be prepared.

These soldiers are very indifferent, and only respect the orders of the superiors, and do not care about anything else.

After kneeling and sitting down, Liu Feng said lightly: "Fifty miles to the west, Dengjia Village." ”

"No." The coachman agreed, slowly moved the carriage, and headed west. Eleven guards followed without saying a word.

Although the speed of the carriage was not as fast as that of the war horse, the fifty-mile road was still fleeting.

On the avenue, Liu Feng rode slowly to the west in a horse-drawn carriage, and a huge village loomed in front of him, with fertile fields on both sides of the road.

It was the time of the busy farming, and the fields were full of men and women who were busy with farm work. There are also many children who are half the size of the child, and they also help the adults.

There was not the slightest sadness on the faces of these people, their faces were full of energy, and occasionally a few laughs could be heard.

It's an idyllic scene.

Liu Feng looked around and couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

Liu Feng didn't know what the situation was like in the world now, but he also knew that the turmoil caused by the war made most of the people precarious. And Xinye under Liu Bei's rule, although not rich, is better than most places in the Han Dynasty.

It's no wonder that during the Battle of Chibi, Liu Bei went south in embarrassment. But hundreds of thousands of people followed.

Getting closer and closer to the village, Liu Feng also slowly withdrew his gaze, and pondered for a moment in his heart. I looked up at the entrance of the village.

Near the entrance of the village, there happened to be an old man with a hoe and was about to go out.

Liu Feng's eyes lit up, he stepped out of the carriage, hugged his fists at the old man, and said loudly: "The old man stays." ”

This old man was deaf and clear-sighted, and when he heard someone calling him, he immediately turned his head to look at Liu Feng. Seeing that although Liu Feng was traveling in civilian clothes, the clothes on his body could not hide the brilliance, and the guards around him were also strong.

A little awe flashed in the old man's eyes, and he hugged his fists and said, "I don't know what this son has to say when he calls the little old man?" ”

"Don't dare to teach." Liu Feng said that he didn't dare. Immediately, he said with a smile: "I just want to ask the old man about someone." ”

Obviously, Liu Feng's attitude won the favor of the old man, and there was less awe and more closeness in his eyes.

"Childe, please speak." The old man also said with a smile.

"A child about five or six years old, surnamed Deng." Liu Feng's eyes flashed with a bit of heat, and he asked.

The old man laughed, pointed to the village behind him, and said, "As the child said, there are no less than dozens of people here. ”

A bit of embarrassment flashed in Liu Feng's eyes, but he missed something. He immediately added, "The kid has a stutter. ”

According to Liu Feng, inquiring about a five- or six-year-old child is undoubtedly looking for a needle in a haystack. But with a stutter, it should be able to lock Deng Ai's whereabouts.

But unexpectedly, the old man in front of him changed slightly, his eyes flashed a little vigilant, and his voice was a little colder. "I wonder what happened to Childe looking for that child?"

The difference between before and after was too great, which made Liu Feng stunned, but then he understood. This old man must have known Deng Ai's whereabouts, and after hearing Liu Feng inquire about Deng Ai, his attitude changed greatly. Liu Feng didn't know.

The heat in Liu Feng's heart was slightly extinguished, he thought about it in his heart, raised his fist and said with a smile: "A few days ago, I passed by here and left a piece of jade pendant, a child who stuttered a little, helped me pick it up. I wanted to thank you, but I was in a hurry and left in a hurry. But he came to thank the child's parents. ”

The old man didn't believe it, but he looked at Liu Feng, although there were more than ten guards around him, he didn't mean to bully, but had a cordial attitude and polite behavior.

The look is very calm. The old man looked at it for a moment, but he believed seven points. couldn't help but smile and said, "Although the child stutters, his heart is very good." ”

As he spoke, the old man stretched out his hand, pointed to the village and said, "A hundred steps ahead, there is a large mansion, and the Zhumen is mottled, which is the home of the young man that Gongzi said." ”

Finally found it. Liu Feng'an's heart was hot, and he bent down and saluted the old man: "Thank you for the old man's advice." ”

"Childe is polite." The old man smiled and walked away with his hoe.

Liu Feng paused for a moment and said to the guard behind him, "Let's go." ”

The carriage set off again, slowly heading towards the village.
