Besides, Liu Bei left Yuan Shao's military camp and dragged his tired body to Shouchun City.

Looking at the flags on the city wall and the soldiers coming and going, Liu Bei's mind echoed the scene when he was in Tancheng, he scolded Fang Xuan, and Lu Yi was on the side.

A sour feeling welled up in my heart.

What have you been tossing all these years?

No wonder the lead moves leave themselves.

No wonder Tian Yu would leave him.

No wonder Zhao Yun was reluctant to follow him.

Even the second brother died because of himself.

Thinking of the past scenes, Liu Bei had a feeling of despair at this moment.

When Liu Bei appeared under the city, the soldiers found out.

A soldier rushed to the tent and said loudly to Lu Yi, who was listening to the grain transportation officer Wei Jing's report on the grain and grass situation: "Report, Liu Bei has come from outside the city!" ”

Wei Jing stopped talking and looked at the soldier suspiciously.

Liu Bei?

What is Liu Bei doing here?

Lu Yi was also quite puzzled.

Looking at Wei Jing, Lu Yi stood up and said, "Come here first, I'll take a look, and I'll talk about it when I come back." ”

Wei Jing snorted.

Lu Yi hurriedly walked out of the tent and rushed to the city wall.

Sure enough, he saw Liu Bei.

Liu Bei didn't bring anyone else.

Instead, he was alone, dressed in obscene clothes and trousers, and stood under the city with a lonely expression.

Countless archers on the city walls were already aimed at him, looking like they were ready to shoot him like a hedgehog.

Liu Bei is not afraid.

Chen Gong, who was on duty with Tai Shi Ci, also rushed over at this time and stopped beside Lu Yi.

Overlooking Liu Bei under the city, Chen Gong said: "Although you must be careful of deception, but looking at him like this, it seems that there is something unspeakable. ”

Chen Gong didn't like Liu Bei.

On the contrary, he was somewhat disgusted.

In the early years, the two were in Xuzhou and served under Lu Bu, and Liu Bei always put on a posture of a Han clansman, which made him very uncomfortable.

Later, after Liu Bei took refuge in Cao Cao, he was even more disdainful.

He claims to be a member of the royal family, but chooses to take refuge in a thief like Cao Cao, he can't accept it.

Now, however, he doesn't feel anything.

First, the Son of Heaven is dead, and the Han is dead.

Second, he had heard of Liu Bei's situation a long time ago.

Over the years, there have been ups and downs, and although he voted for Yuan Shao, he was not reused in Hebei.

On the contrary, they are excluded at every turn.

Actually, think about it.

Now Hebei's interests have been divided: one is the Jizhou faction, and the other is the Yuzhou faction.

Liu Bei is not one of these two factions, nor is he a real family, how can those people in Hebei accept him?

Chen Gong glanced at Lu Yi beside him.

This is not like Jiangdong.

Jiangdong has Wu Hou.

He was deliberately circumventing this, so he implemented the imperial examination in Wu County.

This is also the reason why I have always been glad to have chosen to follow him.

Or he personally brought the Lu family from a difficult and dangerous situation to the current height, so he can understand the difficulties of others.

This is something that Yuan Shao, who has always stood in a noble position, can never be compared with.

Lu Yi nodded when he heard Chen Gong say this.

Looking down at Liu Bei for a while, seeing that he was still standing dumbfounded, and the direction of Yuan Shao's military camp was not unusual, Lu Yi signaled the archers on the city wall to withdraw to attack the battle.

And he went down the wall alone, let the soldiers open the gates, and went out.

Liu Bei heard the sound of the city gate opening, so he slowly turned his head and looked in the direction of the city gate.

I saw Lu Yi walk out alone and walk towards him.

Lu Yi stopped in front of Liu Bei.

The two looked at each other.

Lu Yi asked, "What's the matter, what is this?" ”

Liu Bei squeezed out a miserable smile and opened his mouth.

He wanted to say something.

However, he couldn't open his mouth.

A sense of soreness and shame made him feel inferior.

Lu Yi looked at Liu Bei like this, and he didn't know how to speak.

At that moment, the sound of horses' hooves sounded.

But it was Ma Liang who rode a war horse, galloped over from the city, stopped beside Lu Yi, glanced at Liu Bei, and whispered to Lu Yi in his ear: "Jia Gong said that Liu Bei should have fallen into the divisive scheme and was driven out by Yuan Shao." ”

Lu Yi was stunned.

I see!

Before he asked Jia Xu about the strategy to deal with Yuan Shao's army, Jia Xu said that he would use a discordant strategy, and he would start with Liu Bei and Xu You.

After that, he let Jia Xu take full responsibility and didn't need to ask him.

Looking at Liu Bei, Lu Yi said, "If you have nowhere to go, then follow me in!" ”

"Don't say anything else, at least there are still half-official positions."

"Also, your daughter, your wife and concubine are still in Wu County, living together in my Lu family."

"At the beginning of Xiaopei, you were defeated by Lu Bu, fled to Xudu, and defected to Cao Cao, they followed the Lu family, and later followed me to Wu County."

"It's all good."

"My daughter is also slim now."

"However, or you often abandon him, and you don't care about your family for your ambitions, even when her grandmother died, you don't go back, but choose to support Kong Rong, who was under siege by the Yellow Turbans at that time, and she hates you very much."

"I don't know what you think."

"I only know that my family and country are all over the world."

"Why is home in front of you? That's because the world is made up of a country, and a country is made up of small families. ”

"Without a small family, even if you get the world, what's the point?"

"Let's find a way to make up for it!"

Liu Bei heard Lu Yi say so much, lowered his head, and tears poured out like a flood that burst the embankment.

Yes.

For ambition.

In order to be able to become the second Guangwu Emperor.

How many things have you given up over the years?

Nowadays, the world, the world has not gotten.

Brothers, brothers died in battle.

Wives and sons and daughters, wives and sons and daughters are displaced.

Even the old mother did not fulfill the slightest responsibility as a child support.

In his sleep over the years, he often dreamed that his old mother and deceased wife were standing at the door of his hometown, looking at him with hatred.

That look made him frightened and guilty.

These dreams, over and over again.

At the beginning, he was in charge of Xuzhou, and his daughter Liu Yu wanted to assassinate him more than once, and he didn't know it.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei reminded him many times.

But now, these are strung together, Liu Bei suddenly covered his face with his hands, and began to cry loudly, crying hoarsely.

all these years.

What the hell have you done?

Lu Yi, who was about to take Liu Bei into the city, heard the cry and let out a long sigh.

Turning around and looking at Liu Bei not far away, Lu Yi's heart was also heavy.

He is still quite sympathetic to Liu Bei.

Although Liu Bei's unsympathetic behavior towards his family made him very unacceptable.

However, in this day and age.

in this world.

If a person has great ambitions, he can only give up everything.

The world, he is not realizing his ambitions.

But in the original history, he succeeded and became the last glory of the Han Dynasty, which was talked about by countless people in later generations.

Everyone held him as an inspirational model.

Who cares about his behavior of abandoning his wife and children several times?

This is probably what countless celebrities have pursued since ancient times.

Another example is Wu Qi.

In order to achieve a great cause, even his wife can be killed himself.

In the history books, there are very few families and wives and children that can be recorded in them.

How many broken families have been covered up after the glorious resumes of countless celebrities? How many wives have a grudge against their husbands? How many children have a deep grudge against their fathers?

Liu Bei is just an example since ancient times.

Walking in front of Liu Bei, Lu Yi also squatted down, patted him on the shoulder and said, "The prodigal son will not change his money, everything is still in time." ”

"Life is short for decades."

"If you try your best to pursue it, and if you can't get it, then it doesn't belong to you."

"It's too late to turn back in time."

"Compared to the others, you at least have a chance to turn back, don't you?"

Liu Bei still cried for a long time before he stood up and followed Lu Yi into Shouchun City.

Lu Yi took him to his tent and put on a set of clothes for him, and then asked, "What do you think now?" Do you want to stay here first and make contributions together, or go to Lu's house in Wu County? ”

"Although I can give you a half-official position, but if the official position is too small, I guess you won't look down on it."

"Older official positions, you don't have any merit, I will directly promote you, and others will be dissatisfied."

"Moreover, the entanglement between you and your daughter, your two women, needs to be resolved slowly, and I am afraid that you will have to be patient for a long time in the future."

"If you do something wrong, you can only swallow the bitter fruit and correct it slowly."

Liu Bei got dressed, looked at Lu Yi, squeezed out a lonely smile and said, "People like me can still make contributions?" ”

Lu Yi exhaled and said: "The ancients all said that when you hear the Tao, you can die at night. You're not too old to move now, so why can't you make a contribution? ”

Liu Bei lowered his head and was silent for a long time before he said, "I want to go back to see them first, and then come back." ”

Lu Yi nodded and said, "It's okay." ”

Lu Yi took Liu Bei to find Wei Jing, and asked Liu Bei to follow Wei Jing, and the next time he returned to Wu County to transport grain, he would go to Lu's house in Wu County to find Liu Yu and others.
