Chapter 080: Liu Bei's Death

An ox cart carrying forage swayed away from Anxi on the official road, the spring breeze was blowing, and the coachman sang love songs leisurely, as if it was a peaceful and prosperous world, which made people feel soothed.

Watching the surging An Xi gradually move away from him, Liu Bei, who was half-lying on the hay, was entangled, there were too many things that had happened in the past month. It was so much that he couldn't breathe. At this moment, bathed in the morning light, Liu Bei just wants to go back to the canyon to rest, calm himself down, think about the future road, and think about the principles of being a man.

He had just escaped from the secret passage in the basement of King Xiao's Mansion, and Jian Shuo whispered to him that there was a secret passage under the clothes of Empress Lu in the basement, which led directly to the outside of the city.

At this time, he sighed that he had learned too many things by going out of the valley this time. What is the Three Kingdoms Period? Deception is the most basic principle of survival. Righteous people were killed one after another, and those who were morally degraded and untrustworthy and unrighteous could live wonderfully. In such a society, compared to the twenty-first life, the former is hell and the latter is heaven.

In his previous understanding, He Jin was one of the biggest loyal generals in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, but in fact he was the usurper who wanted to subvert the Han Dynasty the most; The Ten Standing Servants were scolded by later generations, but the fact was that they were the benefactors who saved themselves, and the two joined forces to resist the enemy several times; The strategist he trusted and admired the most, Fu Zhi, was the one who introduced himself into this conspiracy...... He has sensed that the historical record is not necessarily correct.

He traveled to the Three Kingdoms, thinking that he could accept one when he saw a general, and use one when he met a strategist, as written in many novels. Now I finally understand that this is not a novel, not a game, and a military commander is not a programmed NPC. The general trend of the world is not as easy as recorded in history, and it can be brushed aside; With such clarity, it is easy to distinguish between good and evil.

Looking at the blue sky overhead, Liu Bei sighed with infinite emotion.

"The cool breeze is exciting, the autumn moon is boundless, and my mood is like a year. Although I am not a jade tree in the wind, chic and dignified, but I have a broad mind and strong arms and wrists! ”

"Young man, your ballad is good, it's better than our mountain song." The cowman looked back and accosted him, smiling all over his face.

"Farmer, where are you heading south?" Liu Bei chattered.

"Carry firewood home and cook for the old woman. There is not much firewood in the house, so I come to the field early in the morning to get some. ”

Liu Bei secretly thought that if it was not "Liu Bei" who possessed him, but an ordinary peasant, he would be able to live a peaceful life now. "It's better to be a farmer."

"You say that farmers are good, but we say that farmers are not good. In today's chaos and chaos, everyone is good, but the peasants are the most miserable. Farming is decreasing, and taxes are heavier. If it was in previous years, we would still be raising it at home. The cowman sighed as he spoke.

"Yes. When did your taxes start to increase? Liu Bei said curiously.

"Ten years ago. Add a little bit every year, and this year is already overwhelming. But we can't hold anything but a hoe. Alas......"

"You have a cow, life should be good."

The cowman sighed, "This cow belongs to our whole village." Because we are the village head, we can pull out some hay and dry firewood to go home. Just this bit of dry firewood, after returning to the village, the family will have to share a little. Do you think you can, young man? ”

"Since you are so bitter, why don't you resist?"

"Oh my God." The cowman frightened the bullwhip and the ox cart stopped. got out of the car and came to Liu Bei, and urged with a nervous expression: "Young man, even if we are unlucky today, we have transported you as a traitor." Come down, come down and go by yourself. We don't dare to carry you anymore. ”

"What's wrong?"

"What's wrong? It is a sin to kill the head to say this. You come down, come down quickly. The cowman said angrily.

Liu Bei was stunned, laughed and jumped off the ox cart, and watched the cowman drive away stupidly. "It is because there are too many people like you in the Han Dynasty that the rulers are more and more arrogant."

Thinking of the Yellow Turban Uprising for a while, and thinking of Zhang Jiao as his senior brother, he sighed and hiked south, and his figure was very lonely in the sun.

……

In front of the ruins in the west of the city, Princess Wannian looked at the collapsed Xiaowang Mansion, and her heart was full of worries. Did Liu Bei really die here?

"My lord." Cai Wenji looked at the Wannian princess with a sad expression, and didn't know how to persuade her. Yuan Shao said that the underground is a secret room, and the reason for the collapse of the Xiaowang Mansion is the collapse of the secret room. The bodies of Jian Shuo and He Jin have been found, and Liu Bei's bodies have not yet been found. But the other guards had just searched the whole city, but there was no whereabouts. I believe that Liu Bei is below, and the slave maid has already ordered to dig up. ”

"Stop." Princess Wannian shouted. Lamenting that this may be the best ending. Liu Bei is dead, and his thoughts can be sealed forever. In the future, you don't have to worry about your children's affection, you can focus on your career. In this respect, Liu Bei's death is not entirely a bad thing.

"My lord." Cai Wenji was puzzled, but she didn't dare to ask again.

"Tell them to stop." Princess Wannian was furious, she had never lost such a temper with Cai Wenji.

"The lord really likes Liu Bei." Cai Wenji sighed secretly and retreated, ordering the guards to stop digging.

Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed over and stopped in front of the princess. "Princess."

The black shadow was dressed in black, masked, with a spear with the head of a spear on his back and a long sword at his waist. It was Han Qiong.

"You're here." Princess Wannian said indifferently.

"He Jin is dead, and he is here to say goodbye." The masked Han Qiong arched his hand.

"Wait!" Princess Wannian said: "This princess hopes that you can stay, and the conditions are left to Mr. ”

"Appreciate it in the princess. But he is always a Jianghu person, and he is not suitable for doing things for the court. In the future, if the princess wants to send anything below, she will bring the token, and it will be completed in the future. ”

"Mr. Xie. This princess has prepared 10,000 taels of gold for her husband, please accept it. ”

"Thank you, and I'll take my leave!" Han Qiong's figure flashed, and she disappeared in front of everyone. Yan Liang, who was far away, recognized it as the master, and wanted to catch up with him to ask for peace, but because of the task of protecting Yuan Shao, he didn't act.

"Yuan Shao, go back to the capital!" Princess Wannian said.

Yuan Shao, who was talking to Yan Liang not far away, heard the order and immediately answered, and the two retreated and prepared to go.

After a while, Cai Wenji returned to Princess Wannian, knelt down and said reluctantly: "Master, the slave has asked you to resign." ”

Princess Wannian helped the other party up, and last night's resignation promised to Cai Wenji made her unable to sleep for a long time. "Seeing that great things are about to happen, but you are leaving, how can I keep you?"

"Now that the great thing is done, it is also the time for the slave to retire." Cai Wenji said.

"Are you afraid that 'all the birds will fly, and the good bow will be hidden'?"

"The slave and maid have followed the lord for many years, and know that the lord is broad-minded, benevolent and faithful. It's just that the slave and maid feel that they are not suitable to work in the court, so they make this decision, and ask the lord to fulfill it. Cai Wenji said.

Princess Wannian helped her up and said, "Is Wei Zhongdao here?" ”

"It's right outside."

After a while, Wei Zhongdao was called to him, and Princess Wannian said, "Mr. Wei, this princess has always regarded Wen Ji as a sister. Now that she is leaving, Princess Ben hopes that she can live happily ever after. If Princess Ben knows that she is unhappy, you should know what the outcome will be. ”

Although Wei Zhongdao is usually weak, he is never threatened by others. "If Wen Ji is unhappy, she will be even more sad in the future. As for what kind of result, I really don't know. ”

Cai Wenji was about to explain, but Princess Wannian waved her hand to say that she didn't have to. Because she is really not angry, but full of envy for Cai Wenji. Having a lover eventually marrying is always the most joyful thing.

"Let's go."

Princess Wannian turned around and said, full of sadness. It is indeed not easy to say goodbye to the mentors and friends who have supported you for many years.

In order to avoid tears on both sides, Cai Wenji immediately left with Wei Zhongdao and went straight to the Tang Society. Because she has amazing news to tell her sister Tang Xiaoai. Even though it was bad news, she didn't want to hide it.

At noon, Princess Fang drove back to Luoyang, Yuan Shao led thousands of guards to protect the left and right, went out of the city to the west, and went straight to Sili. This scene was seen by Cai Wenji in the crowd, and she immediately burst into tears. Wei Zhongdao hugged him into his arms and comforted: "Let's go, Miss Tang is still waiting for us to go back in the Tang Society." She said she wanted to go on a tour with us to forget everything. ”

Back at the Tang Society, the new president said that Miss Tang had left, and handed a letter to Cai Wenji, opened it, and the font was beautiful.

"Sister in-person:

The little sister suddenly remembered that she was going to a place to walk, so she set off first. My sister will go back to Hedong first, and when it comes to the big day in the middle of the year, my little sister will definitely come to disturb her.

Don't read it, little love is the head. ”

Cai Wenji sighed lightly, the little sister is an infatuated lover, how could she forget Liu Bei so lightly. Then he sighed that Liu Bei actually hurt the two women for her, and now that she is dead, it is not in vain. It's just that the poor two women will spend their time in their thoughts from now on.

Wei Zhongdao held the other party's slender hand and sighed: "If I knew this, I shouldn't have told Miss Tang the news of Liu Bei's death." Miss Tang is a lover of personality, isn't she unaware? ”

"I can't cheat on my sister." Cai Wenji was sad. "If my sister really can't get rid of this feeling, even if Liu Bei is still alive, my sister will still be sad. It's not that you don't know that your sister is destined to marry the eldest son of the Tang Sect. In this way, Liu Bei's death is a good thing. ”

Wei Zhongdao nodded in agreement, and the two turned around and went to the room to pack up and go back to Hedong.

……

In the east of Anxi County, a ride runs wildly on the wilderness. Purple Jasmine Tang Xiaoai's eyes were full of tears, the tears on her cheeks were not dry, and she choked and struggled to ride the horse eastward.

Liu Bei's death was too big a blow to her. She didn't know how to spend the next few days, she felt like a walking corpse, and her soul had already followed Liu Bei.

"Drive!" Tang Xiaoai shouted arrogantly and urged the horse to gallop. She decided to walk the rivers and lakes, act chivalrous and righteous, and be a ranger who travels all over the world.
