Chapter 141: Father and Son Meet
"I never thought that the parting of my father and son would be seven years in a flash!"
In the middle of the twenty-third year of Jian'an, outside Nanzheng City, surrounded by a group of civil and military personnel, a man about fifty years old, with a resolute face, a mustache and goat's beard, looked at the half-grown young man in front of him who had just been helped up by himself, and at the same time, a line of turbid tears couldn't help but flow down his cheeks.
"The son failed to fulfill his filial piety, but made his father worried, which is really the son's fault, and I hope the father will forgive me!"
Facing the man with frost on his sideburns who revealed his true feelings in front of him, Liu Chan, who was still a little awkward in his heart, couldn't help but feel warm in his heart at this moment, and in an instant, he was diluted by this family affection The awkwardness and embarrassment.
Needless to say, who can be commensurate with his father and son, except for Liu Bei, the father of this life?
"Hahahaha, my son ruled a state at the age of Chong Ling, and he has done a big thing that his father has not done, why is it too much?"
Hearing Liu Chan's words of 'pleading', Liu Bei, who was still a little sad, laughed out loud with pride in the blink of an eye.
Speaking of which, even though it has been several years since he came to this time and space, his impression of this father, in addition to the blurred image left by the original 'Adou', is more of the image of 'big ears hanging down his shoulders and hands over his knees' in Liu Chan's heart.
It's just that when he really saw this father, who was praised by Cao Cao as 'the hero of the world, only the king and the ear', he found that in addition to a pair of big ears that are a little bit of a charm, what hands over the knees and eyes can take care of their ears are all nonsense.
And unlike the image of Liu Bei who cried out of the country in the romance, although the father in front of him still had tears on his face, it did not affect his resolute image at all.
"My father is too famous, if there is no foundation laid by my father, coupled with the full help of my second uncle and Pang Junshi, even if my son has a thousand ideas, it can only be a castle in the air......"
As the saying goes, the king does not fight for the merits of the ministers, in the face of his father's praise, Liu Chan, who was comparing his father with the romance, did not care and pushed all the credit on others.
"I said big brother and Adou, what kind words did they say to the family? It's freezing outside the city, let's go back to the city and talk about it, hahahaha! ”
Just when Liu Chan was humble, suddenly, accompanied by a loud laugh like a bell, I saw a strong man with a leopard head and eyes, and a body like an iron tower, but he couldn't help but turn around behind Liu Bei.
Yes, this physiognomy is so obvious, who else can there be besides the third master?
"My nephew has seen the third uncle!"
Looking at the third master who turned out from behind his father, Liu Chan hurriedly bowed down again in a proper manner.
"Where did the family get so many rules, if you really have that heart, it's better to send a few more urns of good wine to the third uncle, hahahaha!"
Stretched out a big hand like an iron tong to help Liu Chan up, but the third master's loud laughter like a bell rang in his ears again.
"Winged ......"
The first thing he did when he saw the third master and Liu Chan meeting was thinking about good wine, Liu Bei couldn't help but shake his head helplessly and smiled bitterly.
It's just that with the interruption of the third master, Liu Bei finally temporarily put aside the matter of describing the relationship between father and son, and began to introduce Liu Chan to the civil and military forces who came to greet him.
"You already know Master Zhuge Junshi, so my father won't introduce you to you. This is the Fa Zheng, the Fa Filial Piety, Huang Zhong, Huang Hansheng, ......"
"My subordinates have seen my son!"
……
"This time as a father, he was just thinking of taking advantage of the heavenly net to obtain a canonization edict in the hands of His Majesty, but why did Adou make this deal with that Cao Cao? Know that if you are not careful, your reputation will be seriously damaged in the future! ”
In Nanzheng City, when the banquet to welcome Liu Chan was over and all the civil and military forces left, only Liu Bei and Liu Chan's father and son were left in the study, but Liu Bei couldn't help but put away the joy on his face, and suddenly became solemn.
"Father rest assured, the son's deal with Cao Cao this time is named, but in fact, it is just a smooth sailing. Not to mention that the matter of Lin Yidao is difficult to keep secret for a long time, just to make my Han people suffer less from a day of hunger, my son thinks it is worth suffering some grievances. ”
When I saw my father, the first thing I thought of was his future reputation, but a warm feeling rose in Liu Chan's heart again.
"As for the method of making books with engraving printing, in addition to the higher cost of movable type printing in Jingzhou Bookstore, more importantly, my son wants to borrow Cao Cao's hand to "clean up the 'tumors' that suck the blood of my big man...... The son thinks that there is something to give to everything. Compared with benefiting the big man, the son doesn't care about the reputation! ”
In the face of his own Lao Tzu, Liu Chan did not have the slightest reservation, and unabashedly expressed his evil feelings towards those family lords.
"Alas, my father is used to being a golden iron horse on the battlefield, but he is not good at these government affairs cases! Since you think this matter is beneficial to my big man, then just let it go! ”
In the end, after hearing Liu Chan's analysis and explanation, although he was still a little worried, Liu Bei completely gave unconditional support to Liu Chan's decision.
"Haha, my father is about to officially become king now, but this case is inevitable in the future......"
Some Liu Chan, who was not used to the solemn atmosphere in front of him, took advantage of his father's self-deprecation, but he laughed with 'schadenfreude'.
"Hehe, although my father is not good at government affairs, I see that you are extremely proficient in handling government affairs. Why don't you leave this time, stay in charge of the country's government affairs, and concentrate on military affairs as a father? ”
What Liu Chan didn't expect was that just when he was 'gloating', he didn't expect his father to want to dump the pot and 'pit his son' with a playful face.
"Well, father, now that the counties of Jingzhou have been newly restored, plus the new land in Jiangdong, there is still a big mess over there. The affairs of the country's government affairs should be left to your father, hehehehe! ”
As soon as he heard that his father wanted to let him be in charge of national affairs, Liu Chan quickly shook his head and refused.
It's not that it's out of suspicion or anything, it's just that as he said, there are still a lot of things waiting for him to deal with in Jingzhou and Jiangdong.
You must know that Jingzhou and Jiangdong are not just about grabbing the land and then simply settling the people.
In his plan, the entire Jingzhou and Jiangdong land should be built as a 'model', so as to serve as an example for the governance of the 'new Han' in the future.
Therefore, how could he be a 'clean and idle son' in Hanzhong to help his father deal with government affairs.
"My father let you be in charge of the national government affairs, not limited to Hanzhong, Ba, Shu, Guanghan, Qianwei and other Han China places. Jingzhou, Jiangdong, and Jiaozhou are naturally among them, which does not prevent you from dealing with the affairs of Jingzhou and Jiangdong, right? ”
Seeing that Liu Chan used the matter of Jingzhou and Jiangdong as an excuse to refuse, Liu Bei was not ready to give up his plan to 'pit his son'.
"Father, it's different. The son wants to use Jingzhou and Jiangdong as the 'test field' to create a 'model' for the Han Dynasty, so as to prevent my Han from being ......controlled by the family again in the future."
Shaking his head, Liu Chan immediately explained his planning plan and plan one by one.
"Family, Adou, do you know how difficult and dangerous this matter is? And if you are not careful, in the future, your reputation will be ruined! ”
After listening to Liu Chan's plan, Liu Bei also put away his banter, and his face became solemn again.
"Haha, don't worry, father, don't say whether they have that ability, even if they have a mixed reputation in the future? Like the first emperor and filial piety, since ancient times, who has not been a person who has achieved great things and has not had both reputation? ”
Shaking his head, Liu Chan not only didn't care about his father's worries, but laughed out loud proudly.
"My son's ambitions are high, and he can't be a father!"
Although he is worried about what Liu Chan wants to do, as a hero who has risen from the grassroots, how can he really cower when he encounters trouble?
So looking at Liu Chan, who was confident and heroic in front of him, comparing himself with Emperor Qin and Han Wu as examples, in addition to being proud, Liu Bei couldn't help but be proud at the moment.
"In this case, my son let go and do it, everything is a father. I want to see who dares to embarrass my son of Liu Bei! ”
At this moment, Liu Bei, who has always been introverted, is also domineering!
At this point, this 'experimental field' system, which did have a far-reaching impact on the 'law change' in various periods of the Han Dynasty in the future, was determined in the first meeting between father and son before Liu Bei officially ascended to the throne of Hanzhong.
"Thank you, father!"
Seeing that the matter of the 'experimental field' was fully supported by his father, Liu Chan, who came to Hanzhong to participate in the father's enthronement ceremony this time, was also completely relieved.
"Why do you and my father and son say thank you, it's just that when you leave, your father will be sad about those cases and government affairs, haha!"
In the end, when mentioning government affairs, Liu Bei couldn't help but shake his head helplessly again.
"Hehe, Zhuge Junshi and Fa Xiaozhi have excellent abilities, and with their help, my father doesn't have to worry too much."
Seeing his father's helpless look when he talked about government affairs, Liu Chan hurriedly opened his mouth and said with relief.
"What Wu'er said is not bad, but although Kong Ming, Xiaozhi and others are loyal and careless, if they blindly delegate power, I am afraid that they will ...... in the future."
As the saying goes, it is not enough to plan for a while, although he is not good at the way of government affairs, but since ancient times, Liu Bei would not know about the conflict between royal power and relative power.
Rest assured, this matter is actually very simple to solve. Set up a few more prime ministers, can't you just have a 'group of ministers' system, hehe! ”
