Chapter 556: This is Favoritism—
Fa Zheng's life is hard!
I endured most of my life, suffered for most of my life, and finally failed to come to Jitai, but I had to suffer from such an illness.
Carefully speaking, he is a native of Fufengyi, and his grandfather was a famous celebrity in the Eastern Han Dynasty, but because his personality is too upright, he basically did not leave too much family background.
This also leads to the fact that the starting point of Fa rectification is not very high.
In the early years of Jian'an, the world was in turmoil, the Central Plains was torn apart, wars were continuous, and famine broke out in many places.
But Fa Zheng's reputation is not very good, and he didn't bring money into the group, so he didn't get Liu Zhang's reuse, but after Liu Zhang was beaten with "sundries" for a long time, he was reluctantly sealed a "Xindu County Order".
Under Liu Zhang's command, the highest is only to a "military lieutenant with a sesame mung bean!" ”
It was an extremely dark period in Fazheng's life, and he was extremely depressed, why... He gets up early and is greedy for a living, and he does dirty work on his shoulders, but on the contrary, the credit is always someone else's, and he... Forever slandered by those villains without a lower limit.
It is also over the years that has changed his personality, making him retributive and becoming an alternative in the eyes of officials in Shuzhong.
After that, Fa Zheng got acquainted with Zhang Song in Yizhou, and Zhang Song was not willing to serve the mediocre lord, so the two often discussed the depressed life together, feeling that life is impermanent and the world is cold.
The turning point occurred in the thirteenth year of Jian'an, that is, the year of the Battle of Chibi.
Liu Zhang wanted to convince Cao Cao, so he sent Zhang Song as an envoy to Cao Wei, but Zhang Song was humiliated by Cao Wei, so after he returned, he kept persuading Liu Zhang to cut off contact with Cao Cao.
The gears of fate changed this year.
After that, the situation changed rapidly, Cao Cao went south to Jingzhou, Liu Bei and Sun Quan reached an alliance in order to resist Cao Cao, and Cao Cao was defeated in a battle of Chibi! Subsequently, Liu Bei gradually grew stronger.
At this time, Liu Zhang wanted to make friends with Liu Bei, so he asked Zhang Song, and Zhang Song proposed to Liu Zhang... Let Fa Zheng send an envoy to Jingzhou.
Let's be honest...
At first, Fa just wanted to shirk this errand, after all, in his opinion, Liu Bei had been chased and killed by Cao Cao for half his life, and even saving his life was a problem, and such a warlord seemed to have nothing worth talking about.
But under Zhang Song's painstaking persuasion, Fa Zheng still embarked on the journey.
That's it...
Fa Zheng appeared in front of Liu Bei for the first time, that is, at the moment when Fa Zheng saw Liu Bei, after talking for a while, he was deeply attracted by Liu Bei.
He could see that this good old man with a kind appearance was restless and restless inside, and this feeling... It is a manifestation of benevolence and generosity, and the expression of ambition in the heart.
Fa Zheng understands too well, because he... He's such a person!
He realized that he was the same kind of person as Liu Bei and Liu Xuande! They have the same experience and the same vision of the "little people" counterattack.
As they got to know each other more and more, they hit it off at first sight, they hated each other late, Fa Zheng became more and more firm in his thoughts, he was like Liu Bei's shadow, Liu Bei was like existing for his restless, unwilling, and unyielding heart.
So, since then, Fa Zheng has regarded Liu Bei as the most important friend in his life, and this friendship is far more than Meng Da and Zhang Song.
And after he returned to Bashu, he began to discuss with Zhang Song how to secretly support Liu Bei and assist Liu Bei's great cause!
In the sixteenth year of Jian'an, Liu Zhang heard that Cao Cao was going to send Sili Lieutenant Zhong Xuan to deal with Zhang Lu, this news made Liu Zhang very scared, he was worried that if Hanzhong was taken by Cao Cao first, then... Isn't his Yizhou cold lips and teeth?
It was at this time that Zhang Song persuaded Liu Zhang to ask Liu Bei for help and asked Liu Bei to lead troops to settle Yizhou, just like in the past... Liu Bei guarded the north gate for Liu Biao!
Again, this time... It was still Fa Zheng who was entrusted with the important task of welcoming Liu Bei.
Fa Zheng and Meng Da each brought 2,000 soldiers to welcome Liu Bei into Shu, and everything was planned...
It's just a pity that there are unforeseen circumstances, and Zhang Song, who is in charge of internal response, secretly defected to Liu Bei and was killed by his brother Zhang Su.
After Zhang Song's death... The two sides had a complete showdown, Liu Zhang and Liu Bei had already broken up, and Liu Bei marched directly to Chengdu.
At this time, there was a new change, Yizhou engaged in Zheng Du, and gave Liu Zhang a good idea, as long as he held the city and dragged the enemy, Liu Bei had limited food and grass, and he would definitely not be able to confront him for a long time.
As long as it drags on, Liu Bei will definitely be able to be dragged down.
When the news reached Liu Bei's ears, Liu Bei was terrified, and he was sure that Liu Zhang had come to love the people, and he would never do anything that harmed the interests of the people.
Sure enough, Liu Zhang, just as Fa Zheng expected, gave up his only chance to win with his bare hands.
In this situation, in order to avoid excessive consumption, he personally wrote a letter to Liu Zhang, recognizing the situation for Liu Zhang, and it was this letter that made Liu Zhang's last resistance completely shaken, and he had no choice but to go out of the city and surrender.
Later, Liu Bei occupied Bashu, in order to unite the local clan, so after sending Sun Shangxiang away, he married Wu Yi's sister as his wife, but precisely because this Wu family was a widow, her deceased husband was Liu Zhang's brother, who was also a member of the Han family, and was of the same clan...
Liu Bei was afraid of violating the code of ethics.
At this time, it was Fa Zheng who used the example of "Jin Wengong" to exonerate Liu Bei.
This makes it possible to set up a character because of the "benevolence, righteousness, etiquette and law"... Liu Bei, who is full of dividends, no longer has to be restricted by this persona, and Fa Zheng has found a suitable excuse for him.
Although some of them are multifaceted and unscrupulous... But under the control of the Fazheng, it was so easy to conform to justice and human nature.
Is this Fa correct, how can Liu Bei not like him? How can you leave him?
This is also why, at the time of Liu Bei's wedding, Fa Zheng, who has always been wise, was easily provoked by people to drink so much wine...
He is also sincerely happy for his good friends!
The past is like smoke...
This scene converged into a picture scroll, constantly wandering in Liu Bei's dream, making his emotions more and more solemn, and Fa Zheng's last words in the dream more and more painful.
- "I'm only worried about the thorns you're bound to encounter on this path... I'm worried that after I'm gone, what will you do if the thorns hurt you?'
- "I am the incarnation of a slope of loess, and I should also protect the great man, the lord, and the only best friend in my life!"
——"The Han Dynasty set the Central Plains Day in the north, and the national sacrifice did not forget to tell the law..."
This sentence reverberated in Liu Bei's ears.
Once upon a time, Liu Bei, who was a child, pointed to the big mulberry tree in the yard and swore that I would be a feather cover car in the future!
But now, he is willing to exchange that dream of Yu Bao Gaiche for Fa Zheng's life, or exchange his life for Fa Zheng's life...
- "Xinghan can't live without me Liu Bei, but I can't be filial and honest without you!" ”
- "Filial piety, you speak, you continue to speak... Speak..."
Liu Bei roared in his dreams, and in the real world, his mouth kept murmuring, lines of tears... It's sleepy, and it still flows from the corners of his eyes.
"Tick!"
"Tick!"
The soft sound of tears falling on the ground seemed to be recording the steps of Fa Zheng's departure.
Sun Qian, Jian Yong, and Mi Zhu have been staying here, Liu Bei fell asleep tiredly, but they didn't dare to sleep, in fact, looking at the picture of the "master and servant" parting in front of them, they were also heartbroken.
That's when ...
A doctor who took care of Fazheng shouted in horror: "Oh no, Mr. Fazheng is out of breath..."
Sure enough, Fa Zheng was breathing heavily, as if he was going to suffocate, and his body was also convulsing... It was as if the blood in his body was completely blocked, which made him very uncomfortable.
At the moment when this voice came out, Liu Bei's eyes suddenly opened, and they opened very widely, as if he had woken up from his sleep overnight.
Looking at Fa Zheng's crying appearance, he exclaimed nervously, "What's the matter? What's going on? ”
More and more doctors came, and one of the doctors headed by him looked like earth after the pulse, "It's probably the medicine that Mr. Fazheng is taking today, and there is something wrong with that medicine... Zuo Gong looks, Mr. Fa Zheng's lower abdomen is now distended badly, and his breathing is so thin that it almost stagnates... The pulse was weak, and the blood in his body was completely blocked... Has... It can already be said that it is like a withered tree, I'm afraid it is... I'm afraid it's just this hour! ”
Speaking of this, the doctor saluted Liu Bei and said, "The minister said that women's practice of medicine is a taboo in Xinglin, and the medicine brought by women... Also... Also... Alas... Anyway, Zuo Gong should prepare for Mr. Fazheng as soon as possible! ”
"Shut up!" Without waiting for the doctor to finish speaking, Sun Gan seemed to feel Liu Bei's pain first, and he directly blurted out angrily, "That woman is the female disciple of the divine doctor Zhang Zhongjing, this medicine... It's Jiangdong's Yunqi Gongzi as a guarantee, is it possible... Are you suspicious of the words of the Cloud Banner Childe? ”
This...
"That's not what the minister meant..."The doctor hurriedly bowed his head, "There are always many people who pretend to be disciples of famous doctors, and if the prince of Yunqi is deceived, he is also... It's also possible! ”
"Stand down..."This time it was Liu Bei who opened his mouth, and he motioned for everyone to stand down.
"Didn't you hear? The lord told you to step down. Sun Qian shouted angrily at the group of medical officers.
"Gongyou (Sun Qian), Zizhong (Mi Zhu), Xianhe (Jian Yong), you all go down together..."Liu Bei's voice came out again, and his tone was even weaker than the previous one, "This last journey... Let me send off filial piety alone! ”
This...
Sun Qian, Mi Zhu, and Jian Yong looked at each other, and then the three of them gave their hands and said goodbye.
For a while, only Liu Bei and Fa Zheng were left in this big house.
"Filial piety..."Looking at Fa Zheng's crying appearance, Liu Bei held his cold hand tightly and said, "What should be said, you told me in your dream, you should cry, I have cried enough in that dream, if this illness really makes you miserable, you can leave with peace of mind... I remember what you said, you made me pay more attention to Zhuge Kongming, you made me entrust Guan Lin with a heavy responsibility, and I will keep it in mind if I believe in him all the time... Your words, your eyes, your heart... I... What else can I not understand? ”
said that he didn't cry, but when he spoke, the tears were like a bead chain with a broken thread... It can't be contained at all.
But it was at this moment of crying that Liu Bei suddenly noticed something...
He was keenly aware... The sentence he just chanted "You let me entrust Guan Lin with a heavy responsibility, and I believe in him all the time."
What he was keenly aware of was... Fa Zheng's last words in the dream, "The lord can't ignore this Guan Yunqi when he is still young, with his help, Sanxing Dahan is just around the corner!"
- Guan Lin!
That's right, it's Guan Lin!
Liu Bei suddenly thought of something related to Guan Lin, he hurriedly took out a jade bottle from his arms, and then poured out the pill from the bottle tremblingly.
Because I was so nervous, my hands couldn't stop shaking... Even when the first pill fell to the ground, he forced himself to calm down before pouring out the second pill.
Be...
It's a fast-acting heart-saving pill!
During the day, in addition to the "Blood Mansion Chasing Stasis Soup", Diao Chan handed him this "quick-acting heart-saving pill".
Speaking of which, Liu Bei and Diao Chan knew each other, in the past... When Lu Bu defected to Liu Bei, he asked Liu Bei to sit on the bed, and then asked Diao Chan to serve Liu Bei... was still disturbed by the third brother Zhang Fei, and angrily scolded Lu Bu for his ill intentions.
It is precisely like this, at the first sight of Diao Chan, Liu Bei recognized her, and Liu Bei was even more shocked... Why is Diao still alive? Why did Yunqi send Diao Chan to deliver medicine?
Of course, based on Fazheng's condition, Liu Bei couldn't take care of it so much.
In the middle of the doubt, he let go of it all...
He just patiently listened to Diao Chan, but in fact, when they converged, it was two sentences and two flavors of medicine.
First, "the void is not replenished", I am afraid that Fazheng's current condition, and the "Blood Mansion Chasing Stasis Soup" may not have an immediate effect...
Second, if Fa Zhengxian's life is on the verge and hanging by a thread, you can try this "quick-acting heart-saving pill"!
Diao Chan also specially added a sentence at the back, this 'quick-acting heart pill' Yunqi Gongzi specially mentioned - can! Save! Life!
Because of Fa Zheng's last words in his dream, Liu Bei thought of Guan Lin, and because of Guan Lin, he thought of this "quick-acting heart pill", at this time... The Fa is already like this, and dead horses are treated as live horse doctors... You'll have to give it a try, too!
Immediately, Liu Bei did not call someone, but personally filled the "quick-acting heart saving pill" into Fa Zheng's mouth, and then poured warm water to ensure that he swallowed it.
And then, then... Liu Bei looked at Fa Zheng nervously.
Initially... It's still hard to breathe as always, it's still cold palms, it's still convulsions all over the body, but... In just half an hour, it was quiet, and everything related to Fazheng's condition... It was as if it had calmed down.
This quiet... The silence is terrible, the silence is creepy!
This tranquility also made Liu Bei subconsciously have two conjectures in his heart, either Fa Xiaozhi came back to life, or he had returned to heaven!
At this moment, it was already late at night, and there was only a faint candle flame in the room, swaying, which made Liu Bei's face flicker, Liu Bei's face was miserable, he didn't say anything, he just sat on the sickbed, and he tried three times before he stretched out his hand to Fazheng's snort.
Even so, he withdrew his arm in the middle of the process again and again, and he still couldn't accept the worst outcome!
- No news, the best news!
Finally...
Liu Bei stretched out his arm for the sixth time, and his fingers finally touched Fa Zheng's snort.
His heart "clicked".
- "Ahh No breathing! Filial piety to him... He's not breathing!'
In this instant, Liu Bei's face changed, like a willow torn by a strong wind, and his tears were vertical and horizontal, like a torrential rain, which could not be contained.
His eyes were red and swollen like two ripe peaches, and tears continued to spill from the corners of his eyes, sliding down his old cheeks and dripping on his clenched fists.
"Woo..."
His cry, like the low roar of a wounded beast, was suppressed and painful, and his voice gradually amplified and became heartbreaking.
The sound also reached the outside of the house, striking the hearts of everyone waiting outside the door.
Liu Bei has never been so empty and confused in his life, he seems to have lost his soul.
Liu Bei at this moment is no longer the hero who has been dominant, tempered thousands of times, and jumped in front of the ghost gate countless times, but an ordinary person who was completely crushed by grief.
"Filial piety... Filial piety... Filial piety..."
Liu Bei cried, cried, cried...
But at this moment, in the confusion, Liu Bei seemed to hear a very light and thin voice, "Xuande..."
“……”
Liu Bei was silent for a moment, thinking that he was too excited and had auditory hallucinations.
But at this time, a weak hand was weakly placed on his shoulder, "Xuande, you... Why are you crying? ”
"Someone is upsetting you again, don't be afraid, just... That's going to get rid of him! ”
“……”
Be... Be... It's his voice!
At this time, the dim candle flame could only pass through a faint light, but Liu Bei's heart jumped to his throat, and he thought he was dreaming.
"Palm lamp, palm lamp—"
Liu Bei shouted loudly.
As soon as he heard Liu Bei's call, Sun Gan, Mi Zhu, and Jian Yong, who were guarding the door, broke in, and hurriedly lifted the lantern in their hands together, and as soon as the candle flame was lit, Liu Bei saw Fa Zheng's face clearly, it was a weak, sallow face... Can... But he opened his eyes.
There was no heavy breathing, no pain, but calm, very calm, even... The paper-white face had a hint of redness.
Fa Zheng sat alive on the bed, sitting alive in front of them, "Lord? Gongyu, Zizhong, Xianhe... Why are you here? I... Am I not at the wedding feast of the lord? I... I seem to have drunk too much and then I can't remember anything? ”
Speaking of this, Fa Zheng immediately thought of something, and hurriedly asked, "Lord, can you marry Wu Yi's sister?" All right? This... Matters! ”
Even at this time, Fa Zheng was still thinking about Liu Bei and his good friends.
"Marry, marry..."Liu Bei was still crying, but it was different from before, he was crying with joy now, "Filial piety, as long as you are good, I will marry whoever you let me marry, and I will divorce whoever you ask me to marry, if the stakes are significant, ten Wu Yi's sisters are not as good as a cold hair of your filial piety!" Ha ha... Hahaha..."
Liu Bei smiled, laughing very happily, clear...
"Hahaha..."Jian Yong, Mi Zhu, and Sun Qian also laughed, as if relieved.
When Fa Zheng woke up, the lord cheered up.
Okay, okay, everything is fine-
It's Fa Zheng, especially confused, "The lord can't talk nonsense... I am not your wife, if I can condemn you to divorce and marry, how can I compare to Mrs. Wu? I'm trespassing..."
Transgression?
In fact, what if the Fa is transgression? Liu Bei wished that this good friend would trespass!
This is the preference -
…
…
In the morning light, Yang Yi stepped into the mansion of the general, which is a small courtyard, along the edge of the strict mulberry forest towards the courtyard, there are gusts of morning breeze blowing through the mulberry forest, the fragrance of mulberry leaves into the noses of passers-by.
Yang Yi stopped in front of an inconspicuous room, and the boy in front of the door told Yang Yi, "Mr. is inside, please come in." ”
Yang Yi looked at the sky before entering the door, it was only the fourth watch, he exhaled deeply, and asked Xiao Tong, "During this time, did the military advisor get up on the fourth watch to review the official documents?" ”
"No," the boy replied, "Mr. went to sleep on the second watch, and woke up on the third watch to be busy with government and military affairs..."
Hearing this, Yang Yi took a deep breath again and raised her eyes uneasily.
He knew that because of Fazheng's illness, Liu Bei stayed at his bedside every day, and for a time, all the government affairs, military affairs, diplomacy, rooms, commerce, agriculture, water conservancy... It's all on Zhuge Liang's body, even if Zhuge Liang is only thirty-seven years old now, upright and prime, he can't say that he is a human being, he is a cow... After working so hard, sooner or later, the body will not be able to bear it.
In addition, Zhuge Junshi's body has not been strong all along.
"Ugh... I don't know if Yunqi Gongzi's medicine can save Fa Xiaozhi? If you can save it, it will not only help the lord and filial piety, but also help Zhuge Junshi!"
With a faint sigh, Yang Yi stepped into it.
The house is as simple as ever, and the decoration in the house is no different from ordinary people, the only difference is that the whole house... The silk books and bamboo scrolls stacked on the river bookshelf on the ground are several times more than that of General Zuo's Mansion. It is dozens of times, and the most important thing is that the placement of these documents is not messy, and every document is neat and meticulous.
In the midst of the pile, a middle-aged man with white silk in his hair was wearing a plain robe and closing his eyes in contemplation, as if he was repeating some important things in his mouth.
This middle-aged man is Zhuge Liang.
And the candlestick next to Zhuge Liang was full of candle oil, which showed that the little boy was not lying, and the candle flame had been burning for a long time.
Because Yang Yi came back, and Yang Yi was Zhuge Liang's subordinate official, Xiao Tong did not report it...
Yang Yi walked lightly, so Zhuge Liang didn't notice that someone was coming in, and he was still whispering something.
As Yang Yi approached, he could already hear some.
"The barbarians in Nanzhong refuse to implement the apportionment into the mu, and the taxes in Nanzhong have never been sent to Chengdu, so it can be seen that although the lord is in Shu, Nanzhong is not happy and convinced, and this place is bound to become a hidden danger sooner or later!"
"The promotion of new agricultural tools has led to a bumper harvest of grain, but there have been huge controversies and contradictions in the distribution of grain between the army and the people, and the people's hearts have fluctuated... At this time, A Dou Gongzi slaughtered 5,000 cattle, forcibly dominated the farmland, forcibly conscripted farmers, the lord... This matter is about Gongzi, if you don't come forward, how should I hear this case? ”
"Zhong Xuan and Zhang both trained 50,000 mountain soldiers in Guanzhong to support Hanzhong... Together with the original strength of Hanzhong, now Cao Wei is no less than 100,000 male soldiers in Hanzhong, what a terrible Cao Wei, Xiangfan has been hit so hard, but Guanzhong does not need to support the Central Plains at all, and Cao Cao in the north to resist the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses of Xianbei Hulu is still not moving, although the reverse Wei is defeated, but the background is still far from being comparable to Bashu, if it is delayed any longer, I am afraid that the number of troops will further increase, Hanzhong... Take it quickly! ”
It seems that the deep groan of the last words touched a certain nerve in Zhuge Liang's heart.
He looked a little depressed and depressed, he closed his eyes, and sighed helplessly.
"Xiaozhi, it's not the right time for you to get sick!"
"When will you cheer up, my lord? I can wait for you, but the situation doesn't wait for you-"
