In the next few days, Liu Bei spent a rather leisurely time on the Wushi Mountain.

Now that his reputation in Luoyang has grown, Lu Jie no longer requires him to go to the study every day to listen to lectures, and let him go freely.

It's just that he was told not to bring other students on the mountain.

When he has nothing to do, he will occasionally listen to Lu Jie's lectures, and when he hears the rise, he will get up and argue with Lu Jie and others.

At first, with the talents and knowledge accumulated in the previous life, they could easily suppress Lu Jie and the others, but later, as Lu Jie and the others suffered more losses, their thinking became more and more keen, and they even almost knocked Liu Bei to the ground a few times.

At that time, Liu Bei sighed in his heart that a child could be taught, in order to keep his reputation, since then he has been going to the school less and less.

It's just that he went less, and the students in the school had no chance to beat him, and his reputation for unparalleled eloquence spread more and more in the mountains.

When he has nothing to do on the mountain, he stays more in front of the small lake in front of the Luoyun Pavilion to fish.

Anglers, casting rods and fishing, may not be how they love fishing in their hearts, but perhaps more because they want to empty their minds.

At least that's the case with Liu Bei.

Today, he was sitting by the lake fishing, first thinking carefully about the future, and then began to look at the Taiping Sutra that had been listed as *** by the imperial court.

It's called the Taiping Sutra, but the meaning of the book is not peaceful at all.

The book is called the theory of religion, but if you study it carefully, it is not difficult to see the teachings of Zhang Jiao's Taiping Sect in the future.

It is taken from the Taiping Sutra, but it is not the same.

Liu Bei also saw it clearly, and what he said in the book was nothing more than demagogic words.

Even those who have read a little bit of the book will not be able to discern the absurdity in the book.

It's just ridiculous.

From the Qin Dynasty to the Western Han Dynasty to the Eastern Han Dynasty, most of the so-called "books" were in the hands of the family, which is also one of the origins of the so-called poetry and book heirloom.

Even if the emerging local wealthy families want to ask for "a book", it is not easy to get tens of thousands of gold, let alone ordinary people who have neither money nor power.

The people may make it happen, but they cannot know it.

Even Liu Bei thought maliciously that this matter may not be the joint action of the family and the imperial power.

The Son of Heaven is above, and the court is used to clamp down on the family, and the family is in the middle, so as to disperse the four directions and "graze" the common people for the Son of Heaven.

Therefore, together with the yellow scarves, the people of the township rose up to respond, and many wealthy families were slaughtered in the places they passed.

In this, how can the family not deserve it in another sense?

As Zhang Jiao said that day, there is no right or wrong in the truth, there is right and wrong in things, and they are all people who are doing things.

Liu Bei closed the bamboo slip in his hand and put it in his sleeve.

There is one thing he has never understood in the past few days.

He really couldn't figure out why Zhang Jiao, who was angry in the ruined temple that day and hung Li Shu's suffering, would let these poor people go from Kyushu to Jizhou in the future when the yellow scarves rose.

How many tens of thousands of people have lost their lives along the way? And these people all died because of his horns!

Is he really a big evil man who is insincere and bent on profit? ….

Liu Bei shook his head and didn't think about it anymore.

In fact, he has done a lot of things since he crossed over, but after all, he is only tinkering with the edge of the general trend.

How difficult it is to disobey the general trend of the world.

At this time, Guan Yu came from a distance, followed by a short man wearing a hat.

"Brother, Cao Beibei's Lejin Lejun was ordered by Cao Beibei to invite you to a banquet." Guan Yu said softly.

The short man clenched his fists and said, "I was ordered to invite Liu Jun to the banquet in Luoyang."

"It turned out to be Wen Qian." Liu Bei smiled and looked at Le Jin from top to bottom, "Although Le Jun is thin and small, he must be a hero."

One of the five good generals, Cao who often takes the lead in battles

Operate the fierce generals, and naturally he is a strong man.

"Cao Beibei invited, so he naturally wants to go." Liu Bei said with a smile, he turned his head to look at the fish basket on the side behind him, "I had a lot of harvest today, I was going to go back and make a fish soup to drink, but now it seems that the fish soup can't be drunk." Later, Yun Chang will not forget to help me bring it back."

Guan Yu's eyes showed some hesitation.

There was a mixture of fish and dragons in Luoyang, and he originally wanted to enter Luoyang with Liu Bei, but now listening to Liu Bei's words, he didn't seem to want him to follow.

But at this point, he had to nod his head and say in a deep voice, "Yes."

Liu Bei wiped his hand on the hem of his clothes and said with a smile, "Lejun, please lead the way."

Le Jin led the way, and Liu Bei followed behind him.

After the two left, Guan Yu glanced at the fish basket and laughed angrily.

In the fish basket, Liu Bei's so-called harvest is only a few small fish.

He never left, but took out a spring and autumn scroll from his bosom and studied it while fishing.

……………………

In the middle of the day, Liu Bei and Le Jin rode into Luoyang.

This time it was Cao Cao who invited him alone, and he did not choose the location in the wine house in the east of the city, and now that he has a clever relationship with Yuan Shao, he naturally has to be careful, so as not to arouse the suspicion of Yuan Shao and others.

It's just that although Liu Bei was prepared in his heart, he was a little surprised when he came to the place Cao Cao chose.

Le Jin took him to turn around in the market in the west of the city, and it was the peak of the flow of people.

[At present, it is the most complete and best sound for listening to books, integrating 4 major speech synthesis engines, over 100 kinds of timbres, and it supports offline reading

Cao Cao teased a few times and retreated with a smile.

Liu Bei sighed when he saw them leaving, and then sat down beside Cao Cao.

Cao Cao handed him a jar of wine and said with a smile: "Why is Xuande like this, you have also been in the market since you were a child, haven't you ever been to this kind of wine house?"

At this time, Liu Bei's mind had eased up, and he laughed: "Bei is a person from a small place, and he is not as well-informed as Meng De who grew up in Luoyang since he was a child."

"It's common for men in the world to be lustful. Why should Xuande hide it? It is not uncommon for a man to have three wives and four concubines."

"I'm going to teach Xuande some truth in this matter. This woman's age is best in her twenties and thirties. If it weren't for the fact that the one in the family is more strict now, cough cough, I still wouldn't have talked about it." Cao Cao took a sip of wine and suddenly smiled weirdly, "Speaking of which, Xuande hasn't married yet, isn't it?"

"Mengde, don't laugh, it's just that now that Xianbei has not been extinguished, why is it home?" Liu Bei coughed and said righteously.

"That's Huo Liqi's ambition, what does it have to do with you Liu Xuande? Yes, now that you are famous in Luoyang, and you are a disciple of Master Lu, ordinary people naturally can't see it. You still have to pay attention to a door." Cao Cao smiled, "I have a suitable candidate, but Xuande may have to wait a while."

Liu Bei took a sip of the wine handed over by Cao Cao, but just tasted it and quickly put it down.

The taste is not good, but there are only a few people who come here to drink, and naturally few people really come for drinking.

"That's why Meng De came to me today?" Liu Bei smiled, "When did you Cao Mengde start the matchmaking business? Are you even concerned about my marriage? Such a deep friendship is a little unacceptable for a while." ….

Cao Cao said with a smile: "It can only be said that Xuande's luck is really good, if it weren't for this time, even if you are Master Lu's disciple and a famous person, people may not be able to do this family business."

Liu Bei put the wine jar in his hand on the wooden table in front of him, was silent for a moment, and then said with a smile: "But something happened to the Cai family?"

"Xuande is a smart person in the end, he draws inferences from one another, but his words are much easier." Cao Cao smiled and took a sip of wine, "Before, His Majesty summoned Cai Gong and others to ask the right people in the palace. Cai Gong is straightforward, and he insinuated at the eunuchs in the palace on the right policy."

"I think it's not secretive, and it's known to the eunuchs." Liu Bei guessed the key to this.

"Cai Gong is loyal and upright, but loyal and upright people are the easiest to use." Cao Cao said with a smile, "Cai Gong was not the only one to deal with that day, but now the eunuchs are all pointing fingers at Cai Gong, which is also interesting."

Liu Bei never asked Cao Cao where he learned about this, after all, now that Cao Mengde is famous as a eunuch, it is common for Cao Teng to have some connections left by Cao Teng in the palace.

He just asked, "Do you know what Cao Jie and the others are going to do?"

"Cao Jie and the others' strategy is simple, first falsely accuse Cai Gong of being imprisoned. If it can be done, it will be used to kill Cai Gong and abandon the city. If it doesn't work, retreat and exile his family to Shuofang, and then let Cheng Huang's son-in-law Yang Qiu arrange assassins to prepare to assassinate Cai Gong's family halfway." Cao Cao smiled, with some disdain and helplessness at the corner of his mouth.

The disdain was naturally due to the eunuch's plan being too simple and not secretive, and he only spent some money to find out the news.

As for helplessness, even if he knew about Cao Jie's plan, if Liu Bei refused to help, he could only buy the assassin when Cai Yong was wandering and save Cai Yong's life.

As for other things, even if he was resourceful, he couldn't do it.

Under the general trend, even he Cao Mengde had to bow his head.

Liu Bei frowned, "Yang Qiu is also involved."

On that day, he and Guan Yu had also seen Yang Qiu in Luoyang, but although this person was quite depressed at that time, there were many hateful words towards the eunuchs between his words.

Even if he is now involved with eunuchs, he should not take action against a famous person like Cai Yong.

Cao Cao said with a smile: "Yang Qiu, this person has always had a dislike with Cai Gong, and besides, the power of Cheng Huang in the middle of the court is not as good as Zhang Rang and others. Persecution

Now, it's not surprising that he's asked to do this."

"If Meng De already knows the details, why did he find me? Could it be that even your Cao Mengde's family background and ability can't solve this matter?" Liu Bei said with a smile.

Although Cao Cao is mentioned now, most of them have to add a sentence after the eunuch, but no one dares to underestimate the power of the Cao family.

Cao Cao has been able to mingle with the Yuan brothers since he was a child, and the power of the Cao family in Luoyang can be imagined.

Cao Cao took a sip of wine and said with a wry smile: "If it was naturally not a matter before, there is no need to find Xuande. It's just that what the situation is now, it should be seen when Xuande and I are waiting for a banquet that day."

"Song Qi is my brother-in-law, and the Cao family and the Song family are also implicated, which can be described as blessings and misfortunes. Now that Princess Bohai died unjustly, and then Queen Song fell out of favor, I am afraid that it will not take long to involve the Cao family. I want to help, but I can't do it." ….

In the past, when he and the Yuan family brothers were rampant in Luoyang, how could he have thought that he Cao Mengde would also have such a powerless time today.

Liu Bei was silent for a moment before he spoke, "With such an opportunity to achieve fame, why didn't Meng De go to find the beginning? In the name of the Yuan family, it should be easier than me to do things."

"You and I know what kind of people we are." Cao Cao laughed, "It's true that he has a good reputation, but he's not one of those fools who doesn't care about it for the sake of fame. Before acting, he had already weighed the pros and cons. This incident would have done more harm than good in the first place, and he would definitely not have made a move. The only ones who will do this are people like you and me."

Liu Bei smiled and took a sip of wine, "Is Meng De underestimating the original too much? The original amount of energy is still not small."

"There are only you and me here, and Xuande doesn't need to hide it." Cao Cao said with a smile, "Originally, he naturally took on a sentence of heroes in the world, but he couldn't be called a hero. Without the family background of the fourth and third princes, it would have been very difficult to get to where we are today."

Cao Cao put down the wine jar in his hand and said with a smile: "If Xuande and I can have the original background, I think I will definitely not do worse than the original, or even better."

"Meng De is quite confident." Liu Bei smiled, and he suddenly asked, "According to what Meng De just said, I don't know what a hero is? I don't know how many people in the world can be heroes in Meng De's heart?"

"Heroes of the world?" Cao Cao took a sip of wine and said with a smile, "It's not appropriate for the seniors to judge, just talk about you and me."

"Fang has already said that although Yuan Benchu has ambitions, he is resourceful and decisive, and he borrows more from his family background, although he can be regarded as a hero, he is not a hero."

Liu Bei nodded, "How is Yuan Highway?"

"The highway is willful, quite a ranger's style, but because of the family background, every person is lighter than others, so it is extremely rare. And human nature is narrow, hatred and grudges are often remembered in the heart, and it is easy to speak loudly, although the Yuan family is the foundation, but it is not a hero."

"What about Fu Nanrong?"

"Fu Nanrong is a famous family in the north, he is heroic and heroic, but he is too upright, straight and does not know how to be flexible, such a character can be a real hero, but he is not a hero." Cao Cao shook his head and smiled.

Liu Bei nodded and said with a smile, "Meng De's vision is so high, it's really not as good as being prepared. , there are all over the world, and Meng De does not allow them. Could it be that there are no heroes in the world?"

Cao Cao glanced at Liu Bei deeply, stroked his palms and smiled, "Whoever is a hero should have the heart to swallow heaven and earth and harbor the ambition of the Quartet. For example, there are many heroes in the Quartet today, whether they are in Luoyang City or not in Luoyang City, they all have grand ambitions in their hearts. And it is not difficult to make up your own mind. Those who can have this heart and can get up and walk can be heroes."

"Therefore, it can be said that there are many heroes in the world."

Liu Bei nodded, but he quite recognized Cao Cao's words, and if he wanted to be a hero, he should first have the heart of a hero.

Cao Cao continued: "It's just that even if you are a hero, you still have to be a little short of a hero, and what is worse is in your heart."

"The so-called heroes, when they can forbear, they need to forbear, and those who have thunder in their hearts and their faces are like a peaceful lake can worship the general. And when it is time to be angry, you can't miss your anger. When the matter comes, there should be the decision of the overlord to break the cauldron."

Liu Bei said with a smile: "Although Meng De's words sound not bad, but how many people in the world can be such heroes? According to Mende's words, I am afraid that there are few heroes in the world."

"It's not easy to do that. It's just that now in Luoyang City, there are already two people in this small wine house." Cao Cao smiled and looked at Liu Bei.

Liu Bei was stunned when he heard this, his hand was just raised, and the fast son who wanted to pick up the vegetables was grabbed by him.

Cao Cao took a sip of wine and squinted at Liu Bei.

"In Yu's opinion, the heroes of the world are only Cao and Xuande'er."
