Chapter 35 Dong Zhuo: How about you being my adopted son?
"Oh, by the way, little warrior, who else is there in your family, and who are your relatives and elders?"
After directly giving Liu Cheng the extremely prestigious position of Captain of Cavalry, Dong Zhuo exchanged a few words with Liu Cheng and suddenly asked Liu Cheng about Liu Cheng's family situation.
Hearing Dong Zhuo's question, Liu Cheng trembled for no reason, and his heart tightened!
This couldn't be explained by his lack of nervousness, it was actually because his parents in this body passed away too early, and the guy in front of him was another person who liked to adopt a fierce general as his adopted son.
In front of him, there was really this guy's adopted son standing.
At this time, seeing Dong Zhuo asking about this, Liu Cheng was naturally trembling in his heart.
After all, he is not a flowery person who is eager to become famous. He does not have the habit or intention of recognizing his godfather and seeking rapid development.
If the person in front of me is the father of my own body, then because I occupy the body of his son, I would just call him daddy, but for someone like Dong Zhuo, forget it.
But, what kind of method should be used to make Dong Zhuo give up this terrible idea without hurting Dong Zhuo's face or affecting his future development here?
Before this, Liu Cheng had never thought that after he met Dong Zhuo, this guy would actually want to adopt him as his adopted son, so he had not thought of any corresponding countermeasures before.
At this time, he suddenly encountered this question and needed to answer it quickly. Liu Cheng was in trouble for a while!
When Dong Zhuo asked about Liu Cheng's family background and his parents, he was shocked and his heart tightened. It was not just Liu Cheng who was involved.
The same was true for Lu Bu, who had been promoted from the previous Cavalry Captain to the Zhonglang General. The hand holding the halberd couldn't help but exert strength.
He is more concerned about this matter than Liu Cheng himself. He is really worried that his adopted father will really accept the guy in front of him as his adopted son!
In this case, my current transcendent status will definitely be impacted!
Of course, Niu Fu was also a little nervous.
The appearance of an adopted son like Lu Bu was enough to make him uncomfortable. If an adopted son appeared earlier that he could not defeat, would he, as the son-in-law of his father-in-law, still have to live his life?!
"Reporting to the Prime Minister, my parents have passed away long ago, and my uncle and aunt passed away earlier. Currently, I only have one cousin to depend on."
After hearing Liu Cheng's answer, Lu Bu and Niu Fu looked at Liu Cheng, and their eyes suddenly became even more different.
A smile also appeared on Dong Zhuo's fat face with a big beard.
"The next heir is in the family, and the bloodline is weak. When my father passed away, he held my hand and earnestly asked me to pass on the family's bloodline and not to cut off the incense. I also made an oath before my father's bed.
"
Before Dong Zhuo could speak, Liu Chenggong spoke again and moved his deceased father out to block Dong Zhuo's possible thoughts.
To avoid speaking too slowly, Dong Zhuo opened his mouth, and if he refused again, his face would not look good.
He wants to hug Dong Zhuo's thigh now, and his relationship with Dong Zhuo must be good, at least on the surface.
For some things, just slightly adjusting the timing of doing things and paying a little attention, without spending anything else, can achieve very good results.
Regarding these, Liu Cheng felt that if you could, just pay attention. After all, you wouldn't lose anything.
The smile on Dong Zhuo's round face suddenly solidified.
Then he shook his head with some helplessness and regret, and stretched out his hand to hold Liu Cheng's hand with a smile: "I cherish your martial arts and character, and originally wanted to adopt you as my adopted son.
But, since you are the only son in the family, and your father said this when he passed away, I will not force it. We, the Han Dynasty, rule the world with filial piety..."
Hearing what Dong Zhuo said, Liu Cheng couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, secretly saying that he was lucky that he was still quick enough to handle this matter, otherwise, there would be an extra father on his forehead.
.
Lu Bu and Niu Fu, who were extremely concerned about this matter, couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Liu Cheng in a different way.
"Liu... Captain Qi doesn't have a character yet, right? It's time to pick up a character, otherwise it won't be easy for others to call you in the future. Since you have been crowned but don't have a character, it must be because there are no close relatives or elders in the family to pick it up.
Even the crowning was given to yourself, right?"
After Dong Zhuo paused for a moment, he spoke again.
At this time, Liu Cheng already understood the intention of the big black fat man in front of him. He wanted to give himself a name!
According to the rules of the Han Dynasty, characters were generally chosen by close relatives, elders, and teachers.
The fact that Dong Zhuo has chosen a name for himself still has the meaning of being his teacher. This is also a hint that Dong Zhuo is close to him and wants to win over him for his own use.
Liu Cheng said he was so annoyed!
If I had known it would be like this, I wouldn't have performed so well before.
Hey, it's not good for this person to be too good. There are always the most powerful people in the world who want to get close to you and build relationships with you.
I didn't do anything. Didn't I just pass two great gates in the world in a short period of time, capture some low-ranking generals, and then have a fight with this guy named Lu Bu, and the battle ended in a draw?
As for this?
Liu Cheng, who smelled of old Versailles as soon as he opened his mouth, got an advantage here and behaved well.
"The Prime Minister's Mingjian is indeed a crown I put on myself, and no one has given it a title. If the Prime Minister is free and doesn't mind it, I would be humble and bold enough to ask the Prime Minister to give me a title."
Liu Cheng spoke without much hesitation.
He had already blocked Dong Zhuo once, and it would be a bit embarrassing if he refused again at this time.
Moreover, there is still a huge gap between just picking a word and defining the identity of father and son.
He is the kind of person who can make people see that he is Dong Zhuo's confidant and that Dong Zhuo values him very much, but does not need to recognize the thief as his father.
Under such circumstances, Liu Cheng would naturally not refuse.
Lu Bu, who was beside him, had already finished his recollection at this time. He suddenly felt as if he was mourning for his heir. If Dong Zhuo hadn't been in front of him, he would have wanted to loosen his hand holding the halberd and give him a few hard slaps on his thighs!
Why didn’t I think of such a good idea in the first place?!
If you want such a good idea, no one will talk behind your back and say that you are a slave of the third surname!
well!
It's all because his father lived a long time and gave himself the name Fengxian...
Lu Yang, who was not far away, couldn't help but widen his eyes.
No wonder Cheng Ge'er only gave himself a crown at the beginning and didn't give himself a name. It turned out that he was waiting here!
Looking at the big black fat man who was the most powerful in the world at the moment, Lu Yang suddenly had the urge to hide the word "retreat"...
While several people were marveling here like they had an epiphany, Dong Zhuo had already begun to say the words he had thought of.
