"Uncle Yun, isn't my father preparing to attack Hanzhong? At this time, it is the time to employ people, why did the eldest brother suddenly remember to go back to Jingzhou Province at this time? ”

In the state pastor's mansion, at the small reception banquet held by Liu Chan to welcome Liu Feng's eldest brother, looking at Liu Feng, who was drunk halfway because he was too drunk too much, and could only be sent back to the guest room by the attendant in advance, Liu Chan looked at Zhao Yun with a puzzled expression.

You must know that Liu Feng also has a military position in the army. Moreover, he is a senior military position like a lieutenant general of the deputy army, how can he run back to Jingzhou Province for no reason when he is about to use troops?

"Well, since the young master has seen it, the cloud will not be hidden. In fact, the eldest prince returned to Jingzhou this time to name the provincial family, but in fact, it was ...... In fact, it is just to avoid suspicion and distraction! ”

Seeing that Liu Chan had already doubted Liu Feng's 'provincial relatives', Zhao Yun couldn't help but shake his head and tell the truth.

"Distracted? Now that the war is imminent, what suspicion does the eldest brother avoid at this time, and what kind of heart does he distract? ”

Hearing Zhao Yun say that Liu Feng went back to Jingzhou to avoid suspicion, Liu Chan couldn't help but be confused while he was full of doubts.

"Alas, it's not for the position of this heir, the eldest prince has to be like this......"

In Liu Chan's bewildered expression, Zhao Yun couldn't help but be a little speechless and said the truth of the matter.

It turned out that some time ago, there were rumors that Liu Feng was dissatisfied with Liu Bei's unfair reward and was resentful because of the rumors in Chengdu City.

Obviously, this 'injustice' refers to Liu Bei's de facto establishment of his own son, Liu Chan, as his heir.

Although Liu Bei took measures as soon as possible, this rumor that could not find the source became more and more intense, and now the whole Yizhou knows about it.

So in order to avoid suspicion, Liu Feng, the adopted son whose identity has been extremely embarrassing since Liu Chan was born, took the initiative to take leave from Liu Bei on the pretext of returning to Jingzhou Province.

Speaking of which, this Liu Feng is indeed aggrieved enough. was originally adopted as an adopted son by his father Liu Bei, but he was cultivated as an heir.

But he didn't expect that not long after he was adopted as an adopted son, Liu Bei had his own biological son. No matter how good an adopted son is, it is not as good as a parent-child thing, Liu Feng can certainly understand it.

So soon after Liu Chan was born, he took the initiative to give up the idea of the position of heir and directly devoted himself to the army. Thinking that the heir can't do it, then be a general who leads the troops to fight.

But who would have thought that even if he had retreated to such an extent, he was still being targeted.

Therefore, through this incident, the long-standing grievance suddenly made him pick on his own. After all, I can't afford to provoke, can't I hide?

"My father has always been wise, but this time he is confused! At a glance, a discerning person can see that this matter is Cao Cao's strategy, in order to make me uneasy and have no time to take care of it. Wouldn't it be right for Cao Cao to let the eldest brother leave at this time......

After learning the truth of the matter from Zhao Yun, Liu Chan couldn't help frowning.

Speaking of which, Liu Chan really has no ill feelings towards this eldest brother who refused to send troops to aid Jingzhou in the original history, thus 'indirectly' killing the second master.

After all, it is no secret that the second master has always had no good impression of Liu Feng, and it was a reasonable reaction for him not to get involved with the second master's Northern Expedition.

Moreover, the three counties of Shangyong had just been annexed at that time, and people's hearts were extremely unstable. Once the army is sent at that time, the land of mediocrity will definitely be lost.

Therefore, in order to keep this extremely critical place of the three counties, and at the same time to preserve the fruits of his labor, Liu Feng refused to send troops to Jingzhou, which is just human nature.

In addition, at that time, the second master was in full swing and victory was in sight, and he was not a traverser like Liu Chan, how could he have thought that the battle situation in Jingzhou would take a sharp turn so quickly, and finally become out of control?

Therefore, in the matter of the defeat and death of the second master, at least in Liu Chan's opinion, Liu Feng really can't bear much responsibility.

What's more, after the second master's soldiers were defeated and died, and Meng Da surrendered to the enemy, he still didn't think about running away or joining the enemy, but still adhered to the mediocrity.

Even if he was later defeated under the siege of Cao Bing led by Meng Da, a second or fifth boy, he still chose to go back to Chengdu and admit his guilt calmly, which shows that he actually has a clear conscience in this matter.

Therefore, seeing that his father, who has always been knowledgeable, would choose to deal with this rumor incident in this way, Liu Chan really couldn't understand it.

"Adou, in fact, the public ...... Hehe, forget it, don't talk about that! ”

Seeing that Liu Chan, the young master, had already expressed his attitude towards Liu Feng, Mi Fang, who participated in the reception banquet together, couldn't help but sigh for Liu Feng with some sympathy.

"Young master, there is a saying that I don't know if to say it or not......"

Just as Mi Fang sighed, Zhao Yun also looked up at Liu Chan after a slight groan.

"Hehe, Uncle Yun has something to say. Here in the little nephew, Uncle Yun has nothing to say! ”

In Liu Chan's heart, Zhao Yun is a person he is absolutely trustworthy, and there is nothing to say that should not be said.

"Young master, when the lord first accepted the eldest son, although he did regard him as an heir, since the birth of the eldest son, the eldest prince has only been in the army...... Judging from the clouds, the eldest prince actually has no intention of competing with the son...... I hope the young master will see clearly! ”

Unlike Mi Fang's somewhat vague words of sympathy, Zhao Yun did not have so many scruples, and directly and clearly stated his views, which can be regarded as saying a good word for Liu Feng.

In fact, in addition to the second master, the vast majority of people in the entire Liu Bei Group have a very good impression of Liu Feng, who has always been low-key, fighting in war, but brave and strong.

This point, even in the original history, because he was worried about competing with Liu Chan for the throne, so he said 'Feng is fierce, and it will be difficult to control after the change of world'.

"Haha, Uncle Yun, you're too worried. Although the little nephew is young, he also knows that the eldest brother's ambition is not here...... As the so-called brothers work together, their strength is broken. How could the little nephew do such a foolish thing as a brother......

Speaking of which, although on the surface, Zhao Yun is interceding for Liu Feng, but in fact, why is he not thinking about Liu Chan's reputation?

Therefore, Liu Chan, who also knew this clearly, naturally gave him a fairly positive reply without hesitation.

What's more, he just thinks that he doesn't have enough talents in his hands, how could he abolish Liu Feng, a general who is very talented in leading troops and fighting, for the sake of this matter that in fact does not exist at all.

"Hehe, the son is wise, the real intention of this party is to let the eldest prince return to Jingzhou to 'provincial relatives'!"

Hearing Liu Chan's reply to Zhao Yun, Pang Tong, who had never expressed his opinion before, smiled at this time.
