Chapter 13: Being abandoned since childhood and feeling sad
A fierce look flashed in Diao Hong's eyes, but disappeared for a moment, but he nodded repeatedly: "What Liu Lizheng said makes sense, I have written it down, and I will definitely report this to my brother in the future. It is getting late today, so I will say goodbye and change
I will prepare some water and wine to apologize to Liu Lizheng!"
As he spoke, he picked up the Emperor's Scepter, walked around Liu Yu as if running away, and hurried towards the side door. The other subordinates also lifted up the unconscious Diao Mao from the ground and fell into the desert as if they had been granted amnesty.
He fled, and a burst of ridicule and laughter broke out from the crowd.
Above the restaurant, Yang Linzi, a scholar in white clothes, said with a smile: "Youdu, what you said is indeed true. This Liu Yu is really a hero. He beat Diao Hong away with three punches and two kicks. Jingkou is indeed a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger."
Liu Linzong drank a bowl of wine calmly and narrowed his eyes slightly: "I don't think the Diao family can swallow this breath. The storm is about to come." At this point, he paused and looked at
He walked to the southeast direction outside the city and murmured, "Besides, with that person here, there should be a lot of variables."
Liu Yu was in a good mood. Several small officials who stayed behind in the state government led Tan Pingzhi and others to live temporarily in the charity house on Guantian. Liu Yu himself was surrounded by the cheers and admiration of many people in Jingkou.
Look away.
As Liu Yu grew up, he had fought countless times in the past, but he had never been as happy as today. The moonlight was like water, shining on his body, making him feel as light as he walked.
It wasn't until he left the city and came to the edge of a stream that Liu Yu finally laughed a few times and said to his reflection in the stream: "How is it? My performance today, Liu Yu, is not bad."
The stream was gurgling, and Liu Yu suddenly found that the water had become exceptionally clear. He looked up into the sky and saw a crescent moon rising high into the sky.
Today's sky is clear and cloudless, making the moonlight extraordinarily bright. He smiled and said to himself: "It's not a full moon, so there's nothing to see."
Suddenly, Liu Yu's expression changed, and he thought to himself: Don't you understand this truth when the moon is full, and when it is mid-moon, it is waxing? It's an ancient common sense.
When the moon is only half full, it will slowly get bigger every day until it is full. But when it is really full, the next time it appears, there will be only a little bit left.
All things in the world have their own laws. When they stand out too much, they will become the target of public criticism. This is also true for the saying that if a tree is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it.
I am in too much limelight today, and it may not be a good thing to have a brother who is the new governor.
But soon, a surge of pride arose in Liu Yu's heart: What's there to do for this small official who greets people every day and collects rent and levies?! King Fu Jian of Qin wants to fight, so I just happen to join the army.
Serving the country can also show your lifelong ambition.
Thinking of this, Liu Yu suddenly felt sad in his heart: I can join the army, but what about my mother and your two young brothers?"
Vaguely, Liu Yu's eyes turned to the stream just now. Suddenly, he was surprised to find that his own appearance was no longer reflected in the water. His father Liu Qiao, who had been dead for many years, was watching helplessly in the stream.
Own.
Liu Qiao whispered: "Xiaoyu, go and join the army to realize your ambition. Honor me and the ancestors of the Liu family!"
Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly, he stood up and threw a stone heavily into the water: "Is a guy who doesn't even want his own son worthy of being a father? I, Liu Yu, have no father!"
The stone entered the water and splashed into thousands of broken shadows. Liu Qiao's image, together with the half-shaped crescent moon, suddenly disappeared.
Liu Yu closed his eyes, and the night wind blew a strand of messy hair on his forehead. Vaguely, he seemed to hear his father's roar echoing through the walls of his home on that cold thunderstorm night: "Everyone is here."
It's you, the disaster star, who killed your mother, I, I don't want you anymore!"
Thinking of this, his heart felt a heart-wrenching pain, and his father's blurred face became so hateful.
However, Liu Qiao's words "join the army" echoed repeatedly in Liu Yu's ears along with the sound of the night wind.
Liu Yu sighed softly and said to himself: "What I said just now about joining the army to serve the country was not a joke. I have finally understood that in this world, if a low-level scholar like me wants to get ahead, he can only make contributions on the battlefield.
On this road, the Qin army is preparing to go south, and a battle is imminent. This may be our opportunity."
"But the war is fierce, the younger brother at home is less than ten years old, and I have a widowed mother. What will they do if I join the army? Besides, with my current status, I am afraid that I will not be an officer. I can only
Starting from a small soldier, fighting on the front line is not an ordinary fight, it is fatal. What will be the consequences if something goes wrong?"
The more Liu Yu thought about it, the more upset he became. He gritted his teeth and said: Wealth and honor are in danger. No one can recommend me to be an official or a general. I have to rely on my own hands. Today I provoked Diao Hong.
I am angry, but I am also afraid that I will suffer revenge from the Diao family in the future. I am afraid that I cannot do this.
But having said that, even the Diao family was attracted by the strong folk customs in Jingkou. They came to grab this land not to recruit tenants for farming. They definitely wanted to recruit soldiers here and then provide it to Xie who went out to Guangling.
General, in order to obtain the care of the Xie family, so the imperial court increased its troops, which was the immediate matter.
I used to go around the countryside and cause trouble. When I was a kid, I fought just for the sake of fighting, because those guys scolded me for being a slave. But when I grew up, I no longer fought just for the sake of fighting. Most of them were just for the sake of fighting.
Good reputation.
It was the same this time, too. I helped the refugees in the north, and the local folks were impressed. They thought I was a generous and generous person. In this way, even if everyone joined the army, I would still be the leader, and I would be promoted much faster than being a soldier!
Thinking of this, Liu Yu's mood became much more relaxed. Then, there is only one last question left. What if I leave and the Diao family bullies my family?
Today, Diao Hong saw my family's household registration and knew about my family's situation. I'm afraid that after I join the army, he will find ways to take revenge on my family.
So today I have to teach him a lesson and let him know that I am not someone to mess with. If he dares to mess around, I will come back to settle the score with him after I have made meritorious service in the army.
But I saved some face for him today, and only beat his slaves, but I still didn't take action against him. So many villagers in Jingkou saw what happened today, and they wouldn't let him mess around.
Liu Yu made up his mind and walked away, striding towards home. On a small high hill about three miles away, Liu Linzong looked at the two people leaving in the opposite direction coldly, with the corner of his mouth curled up.
