Chapter 93 Liu Peigong returned to Fengxiang to bury his mother

When the news of the death of the county eunuch reached Xiang County, the county guard was shocked and immediately gathered the crowd and said: "The county eunuch is an official appointed by the imperial court, and now he has been killed by Liu Bang. Jun Cheng groaned: "My lord, I have a plan to make Liu Bang die without a place to be buried!" The county warden gladly asked what the plan was. Jun Cheng said: "Although Liu Bang is opposed, but his family is in Fengyi, now quickly send a team of soldiers and horses to immediately hold his family, and then threaten Liu Bang, even if he does not surrender, Fang Cun will be in chaos, and then slowly find a way to arrest him." When the county guard heard this plan, he thought it was too good, so he immediately sent the county lieutenant to arrest the people, and then raised a large army to fight against him. Unexpectedly, it was Juncheng's strategy that Liu Bang's bad luck began to come.

Liu Bang led his troops westward and came to Fanghe City. At this time, the Wei people Zhou Shi and Wei Bao also came to attack Fanghe City, and the two sides stationed their soldiers and horses, and there was no battle yet. At noon the next day, Liu Bang was discussing measures with Xiao He. Suddenly, family member Liu An came to report that the county lieutenant had arrested Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Lu Pheasant, and had forced Mrs. Liu to death. When Liu Bang heard this, it was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day. Xiao He was also very surprised, so he persuaded Pei Gong to withdraw his troops immediately. Liu Bang instructed Fan Xu to go back first, and he would arrive later.

Fan Xu accepted the order, and galloped towards Fengyi with only twenty cavalry, and when he arrived at the city, it was also dark. When the soldiers entered the city, they saw that it was deserted, as if it were empty. Fan Hao hit the horse and came to Liu Bang's house, and only a few maids were crying in the house. Fan Hao went in to take a look, and saw a person lying on the kang, pushing with his hand, motionless, it was Liu Bang's mother, who had already died stiffly. Everyone said that the county lieutenant was scared to death. Fan Xu ordered two attendants to guard it. Then come to the rescue of Mrs. Liu. As soon as he went out, a few Qin soldiers who were patrolling suddenly came over. When they saw that there were many people in the courtyard, they rushed to inquire about the situation, and one of the leaders scolded and cursed. Fan Hao didn't say a word, he rushed up directly, and the two hung up. Grab another interrogation. Qin Jun was so frightened that he said, "Lord County Lieutenant has arrested everyone in the compound of Fengxi Yuyu Society to hold a trial meeting, and asked everyone to expose each other's crimes. Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Lu were also there. Fan Hao knew, and the man hung up. Fan Hao led everyone to gallop towards the Yuyu Society.

When Fan Hao came to the Yushe Society, he heard the Qin soldiers surrounding the people intimidating and scolding from a distance, and also hanging some people from trees. Fan Xu took a closer look and saw that Liu Bang's father and wife Lu Pheasant were also tied to the tree in front of the temple, and the people around him were still guarding with torches, but the county lieutenant was eating and drinking with the generals in the temple, and the sound of fists was very loud.

Fan Hao said to the left and right: "We have few people, so we are afraid of hurting our father and elder if we kill them directly." I first went around to the back of the temple, knocked down the temple wall and crushed the county lieutenant, you shouted and cheered from the outside, just say that Pei Gong's soldiers and horses were all killed, and the Qin army didn't know how many of us were, there must be chaos, so I rushed over and chopped up the guards, and I could save Taigong and Mrs. Lu. "The entourage said it was a good idea.

Fan Hao secretly came to the back of the temple, he hugged his hands, and said in his mouth: "The fairy Lao'er inside, Lao Fan can't help it, if your body is damaged, I will pinch a new one tomorrow and return it to you!" After speaking, he put his hands on the wall and pushed it with great might, "Boom! With a bang, the back wall of the temple fell. The county lieutenant was guessing and eating wine with a few generals, and when he was eating, the wall fell, saying that it was too late, and the county lieutenant jumped out of the temple gate with one arrow step, and the rest were pressed below. The people outside were panicked when they saw the temple collapse. Fan Xu suddenly rushed out of the prancing horse from the mouth of the broken wall next to him, and shouted: "Grandpa Tian is here!" Eat me with an axe? "Qin Jun thought that the Lord of the Land had appeared, and he was so frightened that his soul flew away. The lieutenant was also overwhelmed by this sudden turn of events, and before he could jump on his horse, Fan arrived with an axe. A cold light flashed, and half of the lieutenant's head and shoulders were gone. The surroundings shouted in unison: "Pei Gong's soldiers and horses are all here, kill!" ......" When Qin Jun heard this, he was so frightened that he fled for his life. At this time, Pei Gong's brigade also arrived and successfully rescued Fengyi's father and villagers.

Pei Gong rescued the villagers and his family, and hurried home to visit his mother. Liu's mother had already been placed at this time. When Pei Gong saw that his mother was dead, he began to cry bitterly. Xiao He then instructed everyone to set up a mourning hall as soon as possible. Pei Gong and his younger brother Liu Jiaohe wrote a sacrificial text. Liu Jiao was born to the little wife of the prince, loved to learn since he was a child, and once worshiped Fuqiu Bo as a teacher, learning the "Book of Songs", "Book of Books", and the works of hundreds of schools. Fu Qiubo was a student of Xun and was a famous Confucian at that time. The next day, Pei Gong took the memorial to worship in his mother's mourning hall, and then read it out:

"In the winter and October of the first year of Zhang Chu, his loving mother Liu Yuan was killed by the Qin army in Zhongyangli, Fengyi, Pei County, which broke the liver and intestines of the unfilial son Liu Bang and other brothers, and they were overwhelmed with grief. I think that Liu Bangzhi is very talented, and he has not learned anything, and he has disappointed his mother many times, and he has left endless regrets so far. I remembered that in the past, I, Liu Bang, really couldn't bear the rule of the Qin State, so I didn't hesitate to bear the name of disobedience and rose up in the recklessness. Whenever I think of my mother's earnest admonition, my heart is not ashamed. You have always taught me to be diligent in farming, to manage my family business, and not to be self-willed and wander around. These words are heard in my ears, but I am not remembered in my heart. Regrettably, I never followed my mother's admonitions, and I continued to go my own way, acting sluggishly and stubbornly. I didn't care too much about my mother's hunger and thirst, nor did I care about the bitterness of your life. Now I see people going to empty buildings, leaving only shame and regret, and two tears and ripples. So far, the son has achieved nothing, and there is nothing to be proud of, but the son has lived up to his mother's expectations. There is only guilt and anxiety in my heart, and my worries and regrets are also extreme. Now my eyes are blurred with tears, I can no longer see my mother's dignity and kindness. When I think of my mother's advice, it's like you just said it, and it's still in your ears, but you want to hear it again, but you can't hear it again. I now wander alone in the vestibule and backyard, and I can no longer see my mother walking in front of the porch under the eaves. I want to take the food and wine to it, but I don't see you enjoying it. Even though I had good clothes made of silk and gave them to my hands, I saw my mother come to try them on. Today I cried out, 'Mother! I also want to hear your endless nagging family motto. I want to serve you before you get out of bed, but no one cares about your clothes anymore. Sad! It's so sad! I haven't repaid my mother's nurturing kindness, so why are you gone? ”

When Liu Bang said this, he was already in pain, so he couldn't say anything, and everyone present was infected and burst into tears. Liu Bang looked at his tears, and then recited:

"Whenever I think of the past, the world is full of calamities; Either wolf smoke is everywhere, or there are many disasters in the sky, so that ten rooms and nine empty rooms are destroyed. At that time, the grass and trees were sad, and the mountains and rivers were wronged. The earth was cold and bleak, and everywhere was desolate. The mother and father took their children and young children to hide and run around. Although it is difficult to invest in the country, it is difficult to have a home. The whole family was frightened, hungry or cold, and cried for food. The dust of the battle is rolling all the way, and how difficult the long distance is, it is really like a year. The mother has to nurse the young, and she has to move around, war and chaos! I don't know how many years? Fortunately, the troubled times have passed, and the rule of the world has finally appeared, but who would have expected that the rule of the Qin State would be more ferocious than before. It was only then that it was passed to the second generation, and the happiness in the dream was gone again. The hateful second emperor was more tyrannical than his Lao Tzu. The men of the world are either forcibly conscripted into military service or forced to go to the border. I don't know how many times I've been drafted into the military and died on the side of the road. Thanks to the accommodation of my colleagues from top to bottom, I was lucky enough to avoid all kinds of disasters and steal peace. It also made me not die before my mother, so that you did not see the sorrow and grievances of the white-haired man sending the black-haired man!

I am indeed unwilling in my heart, and I am not willing to accept burning and burial, and I am unwilling to always turn my back to the sky for the farm. Although you say that I am not virtuous, I would rather bear the name of unscrupulous but make such an earth-shattering change, regardless of the future success or failure and the danger ahead. I was not used to seeing chicks and finches pecking at home, and I often admired Honghu and Dapeng soaring in the sky and vibrating feathers among the clouds. What do you say Bao Zheng is fiercer than a tiger, I want to reorganize the world, and then settle Li Yuan, so that the world can be peaceful, and all the old people can enjoy their old age. Although the filial piety of the child is not as good as the deer milk and the kiss, the fingers are heartbroken, and the filial piety touches the sky. But I am unswerving, and I will be able to make the living worry-free and the dead to sleep forever. Although the loving mother is gone, the father is still complete. I must do my best to compensate for my mother's inadequate service. The child's liver and gallbladder are split, and the intestines are broken. Who would have thought that the last parting with my mother would become forever. The child is late today, unfortunately you have returned to heaven! O sorrow! Hello sky! Sad! Vast crowds!

In the world, if a person encounters a calamity and danger, so that life and death are at stake, the call in his mouth is either his parents or the twilight sky. The kindness of the loving mother has not been repaid, and the resentment of the heavens does not leave the year. Now that the mother is gone, the child will call you a thousand times when she is in danger, but how can you hear it? Now, even if he digs the Yellow Spring, he can't see his mother again. I remember that in the past, everything was difficult at home. And my father is still working hard and silently dedicating himself to the family. Thinking of your mother's ill-fated life, how bumpy your life has been and how many hardships have you experienced? When will the days of the demons pass? When will the time of Yoshijin reappear? The people of the world do not hate war, but what Emperor Qin did stirred up the resentment of all the people. Although I am a pavilion chief, I want to make trouble anyway. I only hate my short-sightedness and limited ability. Although he is dull and unsuccessful, his ambition has never changed. I am only virtuous, but I can be a corporal and courteous to the Magi. I am clumsy and unbearable, and I can't get the rope and ink, so I only ask the masters to come and act as the backbone of the army. Fortunately, Xiao, Cao, Zhou, and Fan went to the hardships with me. They have high aspirations and are not worldly. Our generation is united in our determination to overturn the Qin State.

Although I am not talented, I have heard the wise saying that 'the world is not the world of one person, but the world of the people of the world'. Therefore, he dared to risk the world's condemnation, and still embarked on the dangerous pool of breaking with Qin. Although there are risks in the dangerous pool, I have no hesitation and will eventually hold my head high. But I hope that my mother's heroic spirit will bless my generation from disasters and difficulties, and the great cause of overthrowing the tyrannical Qin can be realized as soon as possible! Creating a world of great harmony is exactly what the people are looking forward to. I will devote my whole life to saving the people, rescuing the people from hanging upside down, and with a lot of blood, I will be able to turn into a sincere cuckoo, so as to comfort my mother, and I hope you will smile at Jiuquan. Say goodbye, everything is fine here, and you don't have to worry about it over there! Sad! Alas! O sorrow! Would you like to enjoy these wines and fruits? ”

After Pei Gong finished reading the sacrifice, he crawled and became painful again. Xiao He and the others hurriedly helped them up. Xiao He said: "People can't be resurrected after death, they should bury their aunt as soon as possible, otherwise the county defense will attack, how can it be good?" Pei Gong beat his spirit and buried his mother. That night, Pei Gong personally guarded the tomb, and sent Fengyi's craftsmen to rebuild the Yuyu Society and create a new statue of the land.

The next day, Yin Zhuang, the county guard, led a large army to attack Pei County. Xiao He said: "Pei County is our base, once lost, there is no place to stand." Liu Bang ordered Fan Hao and Yongya to guard Fengyi, and then came to save Pei County in person.

Yin Zhuang, the county guard, led the Qin army to besiege Peixian. Ji Xin guarded the city, and when he saw that there were many Qin soldiers, he rose up to resist. Seeing that the Qin army was about to enter the city, suddenly a military horse in the southwest corner was killed, and the leaders were Cao Shen and Zhou Bo. Ji Xin saw that the rescuers were coming, and he also went out of the city to attack the county guard. When the county guard saw that Liu Bang's reinforcements had arrived, he waved his army to cover the killing. Both sides slaughtered. Cao Shen, Zhou Bo, and Ji Xin attacked the county guard together, how could the county guard withstand the attack of the three, seeing that he was in danger of dying, he had to order the left and right captains to intercept him, but he himself turned around and ran. Cao Shen said to Ji Xin and Zhou Bo: "You two protect the city, I will chase after the county guard, I can't let him escape!" "I left Pei County to chase and kill the county guard. Ji Xin and the right lieutenant fought, Zhou Bo and the left lieutenant fought, the two of them shook their spirits, the more they fought, the more courageous they became, and finally killed the two. At this time, Pei Gong's brigade also arrived, and Pei Gong also came to chase and kill the county guard.

The county guard also fled eastward, and when he came to the Surabaya River, there happened to be a small boat, so he got on the boat and ordered the sergeant to row to the opposite bank. By the time Cao Shen caught up, the county guard had already left the shore. At this time, Pei Gong and Xiao He also arrived, and they joined forces with Cao Shen. Xiao He suggested that he should cross the river to catch up, and not let the county guard recover. Pei Gong asked Ji Xin to return to Pei County, searched for boats, and crossed the river overnight.

The county guard fled all the way, and after going ashore, he ran to Xue County. The county magistrate of Xue County heard that the county guard was coming, and hurried out of the city to greet him. After the county guard entered the city, he saw that there were still 1,000 soldiers in Xue County, so he personally mobilized to defend the city. After Pei Gong crossed the river, he heard all the way that the county guard had gone to Xue County, so he led the soldiers to Xue County, and then surrounded the city.

The next day, the county guard saw that Pei Gong's men and horses were very strong at the head of the city, so he ordered to hold on. Pei Gong said to the county guard: "In the past, adults arrested me many times, but now that I am here, but you are hiding, you are not afraid of the people's shame?" The county guard smiled: "'The strong dragon is difficult to suppress the head snake', you are a head snake, but I am trying to find a way to deal with you, don't be too happy!" I'm going to catch you! "Just ask the county magistrate how to catch Liu Bang. The county commander thought that you can't do anything about a county guard, and I can have a bullshit way for a county order, but he didn't dare to support him, and then the county guard forced him to be anxious, so he said: "Lord County Guard, there is a master in the city, he must have a strategy to retreat from the enemy!" The warden asked who it was. The county commander replied: "Is that the famous Dr. Shusun Tong?" For some reason, he came back from Xianyang two months ago, and now he is in the city. This person is erudite and talented, if you ask him for advice, why worry about a Gating long mile? The county guard said: "This person is famous, but he is a nerd, how can he know the strategy?" No, do you want to find another way? Otherwise, I'll kill you! The county commander saw that the county guard wanted to kill him, so he had to recommend vigorously: "My lord, I heard that people who have stayed in a big place have great knowledge, like I have only stayed in a Gaxian county, how can I have any strategy?" If he is really in vain, he will humiliate him and send him away, and I will find a way. The county guard asked the county commander to go to his uncle and grandson immediately. The prefectural magistrate agreed and walked out.
