The expression on Gao Fei's face was a bit complicated, and his mood was also particularly complicated. He looked at Tian Feng in front of him, feeling that he had gone through the iron shoes to find nothing and found it without any effort. He smiled stiffly and looked at Tian Feng.
He cupped his hands and said: "I have admired Mr. Tian's name for a long time. I once sent people to Julu to look for him. I don't want him to avoid trouble in Qingzhou. But it is truly a blessing to meet him today in Liaodong."
Tian Feng has a long and thin face, a broad forehead, a downward-pointing nose, large and deep eyes, and a goat's beard hanging on his chin. A quiet smile makes his face look radiant and expresses
His self-confidence and cleverness came from him. After hearing Gao Fei's words, he was a little surprised, and secretly thought in his heart: "Is this God's will?"
"Sir, you have come a long way. The official residence is not far from here. Please come to the official residence to have a rest." Although Gao Fei wanted to let Tian Feng work for him, seeing that Tian Feng was now physically and mentally exhausted, he wanted to invite Tian Feng into the official residence.
We’ll talk about other things later.
Tian Feng saw that Gao Fei was very polite, and he had heard about Gao Fei's resistance against the bandits in Jizhou, and he had also visited him, so he had a good impression of Gao Fei. He turned around and looked at the people accompanying him.
Everyone was exhausted physically and mentally from taking the boat. They did not refuse immediately and said with cupped hands: "Since the prefect insists on inviting you, then we have to be respectful and accept your order."
Gao Fei was very happy, and immediately turned to Liao Hua beside him and said: "Yuanjian, you and your people have been guarding the seaside these days, and you have built a tea shop on the seaside. Everyone who crosses the sea from Qingzhou Fuhai to the east will be required."
Take care of."
Liao Hua cupped his hands and said: "No!"
After he finished speaking, Gao Fei made an "invite" gesture and walked toward the town with Tian Feng and the others. When they arrived at the town, Gao Fei ordered his people to arrange a room for Tian Feng, and asked other scholars to also come.
They got the room they deserved and were given tea, allowing Tian Feng and others to get the rest they deserved.
In the evening, people who went fishing began to return one after another. Gao Fei asked Liao Hua to camp outside and build barracks nearby. He had a hunch that more and more people from Qingzhou would come to Liaodong to escape the chaos.
After nightfall, Tian Feng and others had basically recovered after a long day's rest, and their faces looked normal. In the hall of the official residence, Gao Fei had already ordered some simple food to be laid out, and a single table was arranged according to the custom of literati.
Separate seats to entertain them.
Tian Feng took his wife and children out of the room, and when he came to the hall, he couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw the food that had been prepared. Since he resigned, he has been living in his hometown of Julu. Later, Julu suffered
After the rebellion led by Zhang Niujiao, he moved his family to Jinan in Qingzhou, hoping to escape for some time. However, just a few months after staying in Jinan, another rebellion by the Yellow Turban Party broke out in Qingzhou, and he had to bring more than 20 members of his clan to the sea.
Crossing the sea to the east, he wanted to temporarily hide in Liaodong for a while. When the situation in the Central Plains stabilized, he would take his clan back to Jizhou.
"Mr. Tian looks good. It seems that he has almost rested. The conditions here are simple and Liaodong is remote, so there is no good wine or tea to entertain Mr. Tian. Please forgive Mr. Tian." Gao Fei waited early.
In the hall, when I saw Tian Feng coming out, I immediately greeted him and greeted him.
Tian Feng said: "It is a blessing for Yuan Hao to be received by the eunuch. What's more, Yuan Hao is also on the run now. He has a place to stay. Yuan Hao is already very satisfied.
How dare you ask for anything else? The governor is too polite, and Yuan Hao really can't afford it."
Gao Fei smiled and said: "There are no adults here tonight, only friends. Mr. Tian is a famous person in the country. I wonder if Mr. Tian is willing to be friends with this vulgar person?"
"What did you say, sir? With your talents, you not only put down the Liangzhou rebellion, but also recruited and surrendered the rebel soldiers on the way to take office. You are an upright man, how can you be a vulgar person? Yuan Hao is already a down and out man.
As adults, adults should treat each other with courtesy, and Yuan Hao will naturally not fail to make friends like this."
"Haha, Mr. Tian, please take a seat!"
So Tian Feng took his wife and children to the table, and then his clan members came to the table one after another. Accompanied by Gao Fei, everyone had a hearty meal.
After the banquet was over, Gao Fei ordered people to send Tian Feng's clan back to their rooms one by one, and he himself sent Tian Feng back to his room.
"Yuan Hao is a commoner, but you have always been very polite to me. Yuan Hao really doesn't know how to repay you." Tian Feng said after Gao Fei sent him back to the room in person.
Gao Fei smiled and said: "Sir, don't take it to heart. Gao is a cheerful person and is willing to go out of his way to protect his friends. Don't worry about this little thing. Sir, it's already late at night. Please come early."
Some rest.”
"Sir, walk slowly!"
Looking at Gao Fei's leaving figure, Tian Feng turned around and went back to his room, with a satisfied smile on his face and said to himself: "I thought Gao Ziyu was just a reckless commoner, but I didn't expect that his words and deeds were no less than ordinary."
Scholar, when he ordered people to look for me, I had not gone far, but now we meet again in Liaodong. Is this really God's will?"
Early the next morning, Gao Fei arranged for some of his subordinates to stay at the official residence and asked them to take good care of Tian Feng and others. He rode a black horse and took Diao Chan to the seaside. He wanted to supervise Liao Hua and others and see
Will there be people crossing the sea to the east today?
When they arrived at the beach, Gao Fei took Diao Chan off Wu Longju's back, and the two held hands and walked on the beach. The feeling was really sweet. They first visited the teahouse built by Liao Hua and others.
, and then walked towards the coast.
"Wow! It's so beautiful. It turns out this is the sea. It's so beautiful." Diao Chan's first reaction after seeing the sea was so strong. She grew up in the palace, and the path she took and the things she saw were nothing more than just a few years ago.
It was just a little bit. When she saw the beautiful sea, she naturally couldn't bear the joy in her heart, so she shouted loudly.
Gao Fei took Diao Chan's delicate hand and ran forward quickly, taking Diao Chan to the sea water. He picked up the sea water and splashed it on Diao Chan's body, making the hem of Diao Chan's dress wet.
The beautiful Diao Chan becomes even more charming because of the sea water.
Diao Chan also splashed sea water on Gao Fei, and the two young people enjoyed the happiness that the sea brought to them. In the end, they were almost soaked all over, and then they stopped.
Gao Fei held Diao Chan's hand and sat on the beach, looking at the boundless sea. He felt extremely happy. Then he turned around and saw the soaked clothes clinging tightly to Diao Chan's body, covering up her exquisite curves.
After this, a kind of desire aroused in my heart. I took Diao Chan into my arms, and the two of them just sat on the beach, looking at the sea, as if the whole world belonged to them.
"Lord!"
The sound from behind broke the peace. Gao Fei slowly let go of Diao Chan, turned around and looked over. When he saw it was Liao Hua, he asked, "What's the matter?"
Liao Hua said: "Mr. Tian is here and said that he has something important to see the lord."
A smile appeared on the corner of Gao Fei's mouth, and he turned to Diao Chan beside him and said, "Beauty, wait for me here for a moment. I'll go and come back."
Diao Chan nodded, still immersed in the joy of the sea.
Gao Fei followed Liao Hua to a forest by the seaside. When he saw Tian Feng sitting under the shade of a tree, he walked straight over.
When Tian Feng saw Gao Fei coming from a distance, he stood up in a hurry and immediately cupped his hands and said, "See you, Lord Prefect!"
Gao Fei smiled and said, "Sir, did you have a good rest last night?"
"Thanks to you, my body has recovered yesterday. I wonder if you are free now?"
"Yes!" Gao Fei nodded, walked to Tian Feng's side, pointed to a tree shade and said: "Sir, please sit down, we will talk slowly here."
After the two sat down, they heard Tian Feng say: "Did the Grand Administrator build a teahouse here just to welcome the Qingzhou people coming from the east?"
Gao Fei did not deny it and said cheerfully: "Exactly!"
Tian Feng nodded with satisfaction and said: "Yuan Hao admires Yuan Hao for your magnanimity. Yuan Hao is here to thank you for the people who came from the east."
Gao Fei said: "It's just a little effort, and it's also something that benefits the people. Naturally, I won't ignore those people."
"Your Excellency, your reputation has been rising day by day since you pacified the Yellow Turbans, settled Liangzhou, and executed the eunuchs. I heard that the imperial court once recruited you to serve as Sili Xiaowei, but you were rejected by your Majesty. Instead, you wanted to come to Liaodong to be the governor. Is this possible?
?”
"Well, there is indeed such a thing."
"Your Excellency, you are willing to be the governor of a county despite being a high-ranking official and a generous salary. Do you plan to stay in Liaodong forever?"
Gao Fei seemed to have heard Tian Feng's words, and immediately smiled and replied loudly: "Sir, although Liaodong is remote and far away from the Central Plains, it can be a place of escape. Otherwise, sir, I would not come from Qingzhou."
The eastward journey has come here. The reason why I chose to come to Liaodong instead of serving as Sili Colonel is because Liaodong has a unique geographical location. If Liaodong can be managed well, it will definitely become a pure land. Do I want to stay in this pure land forever?
Isn’t it good here?”
Tian Feng sneered and said: "Now the world is in chaos, bandits are everywhere, and the Central Plains is suffering greatly. However, the imperial court not only shows no sympathy for the people, but also blatantly issued a decree to tax the world and deprive the fields, which directly led to the resurgence of the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou. If this happens again.
If this continues, I'm afraid that the world will inevitably fall into chaos again, and capable people will inevitably rise up one after another. Don't you want to take advantage of this time when heroes are vying for hegemony to do something spectacular?"
Gao Fei secretly smiled in his heart, but said with a confused look on his face: "I think about it, it's just that Liaodong is remote and the people are small and poor. How can I compete with the world?"
