Chapter 80: Liu Ke gets married
Of course, in private, it is naturally impossible for Liu Bei to forget his father-in-law Lu Zhi, his uncle Lu Min, his friend Cao Cao and others. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Zheng Xuan, Guan Ning, Bing Yuan, and Xun Yu from Yingchuan, who were still in Yangqiu, all received gifts from Liu Bei.
When Guan Ning received the gift, his hair was unkempt and his clothes were untidy, where was there still the gentle and elegant celebrity style of the past. He has indeed fallen into a demonic obstacle recently, blindly trying to figure out if there are other substances in the crystal, and why the function of the white crystal is different from that of other colored crystals...... In short, he was trapped and almost couldn't get out.
He took out Liu Bei's magnifying glass, tried and tried according to what his letter said, and while he was happy and excited, he read Liu Bei's letter carefully, only to see Liu Bei say in the letter: "Brother You'an, brother Yubajun learned that my brother has been busy with the theory of Ge Jing recently, and he has been so tireless that he forgot to sleep and eat. My brother's heart is different, and I said that my brother heard it: When I was young, I was born because I knew the boundlessness, and I didn't want to bury my head in the chapters and sentences, so I found another way to explain the theory of things. However, between heaven, earth and the universe, there are so many kinds of things, how can the power of a poor person be obtained? If my brother has exhausted his life's work and has not been able to exhaust the substance of crystal, what can he do? We Confucian scholars, reading the books of sages and sages, do not apply what we have learned, and help the world and the people, but we try in vain to pursue this blank path with the strength of one person. This misdirection also. However, my brother asked me when I could care, when the world was peaceful and the Haiyan River was clear, the intelligence of the world's scholars and the foundation of a thing could be carried out. There is a road in the book mountain, there is no end to the sea of learning, and I encourage my brother to ......"
Liu Bei's words sounded in Guan Ning's heart like Huang Zhong Dalu. He had to accept it in disgrace, the facts were in front of him, he was the first to discover that crystals can concentrate light and heat, but Liu Bei drew inferences from others, and discovered another more meaningful function of crystals, which is magnification. What is learning to apply, Liu Xuande is to apply what he has learned. The meaning of the magnifying glass, Guan Ning knew in his heart, was much more important than gathering a hot spot. Although Liu Xuande said in the recital that the crystal magnifying glass was his first creation, he was still disappointed.
Is this the gap between geniuses and mortals, Guan Ning thought helplessly. He didn't know that Liu Bei could only see higher and farther by standing on the shoulders of countless giants. If you really want to be fair to compare the knowledge of this era with Guan Ning, it's strange that Guan Ning doesn't dump him for eight streets.
After all, it was Guan Ning, and although Fang Cai was in a state of turmoil, he quickly calmed down. Well, if you want to study it in the future, you will follow the direction of applying Xuande. He faintly saw a little sign from Liu Bei's description. But he doesn't seem to understand it. In fact, Liu Bei vaguely clicked on the market idea of promoting research and development from R&D to production and final sales, and finally the funds obtained promoted R&D. Of course, Liu Bei couldn't say it too carefully, just to the point. Guan Ning shook his head, and looked forward to the time when Liu Bei said that in the peaceful and prosperous world, the intelligence of the world's scholars was gathered, and the foundation of the same thing was grand. What a scene that was!
Liu Bei drew a big pie for Guan Ning, for fear that Guan You'an's research would go crazy and it would be over. At the same time, the winter hunt of the year began. The emperor took a large number of entourage guards, civil and military honors, and hunted in the forest garden. It may be that he has not been out of the wild like this for a long time, and the emperor rode his horse all the way west on a whim. Walking and walking, I actually arrived at Hangu Pass. At this point, the ministers said that they would not allow the emperor to go any further. Hold on to the royal driver's hard persuasion. It's all out of Henan and you've arrived in Hongnong, Your Majesty, you're enough. The emperor had no choice but to turn around.
Along the way, the emperor, who was disturbed by his interest, had no choice but to vent his frustration on the birds and beasts all over the mountains. The animals are out of luck. At this time, Liu Ke's skills that he had worked hard since he was a child were revealed. Among the guards full of children of the family, Liu Ke, who is accustomed to being wild in the mountains and forests, has such outstanding one-handed archery skills. Naturally, it was inevitable to be concerned by the emperor and his ministers. When the emperor asked about the banquet, he learned that Liu Ke was Liu Bei's younger brother. The emperor was at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period at this time, and he wished that the more virtuous people in the country, the better. It's one thing for him to favor eunuchs, and it's another thing for him to love talents. I didn't see that although the emperor was proficient in eating, drinking, and having fun, there were still some upright ministers among the courtiers. has a good reputation and strong ability, although it can't stop the emperor's nonsense, but at least it temporarily ensures that the operation of the entire empire will not collapse. Compared with Wenchen, he prefers military generals, believing that such people are easier to control. The emperor never thought that any military general would dare to disobey his orders, and in fact, it was the same, whether it was the Liangzhou faction or other factions, they were all very well-behaved during his lifetime. It wasn't until after he ascended to heaven that the yang and yin began to violate. Of course, Dong Zhuo played a very bad role. Let the military ministers of the world know, it is actually nothing if you don't listen to the orders of the imperial court, as long as the strength is enough, the imperial court can't do anything to yourself.
The more the emperor looked at Liu Ke at this time, the more pleasing he became, especially when he compared it with Liu Bei. So the emperor was happy, and he gave a bounty and a silk. This is already a great gift in the eyes of outsiders. In the past, it was already very good for the emperor to be able to say a few words to his guards.
At the beginning of December, Liu Bei sealed the treasury and began to take leave, and Lu Heng was about to give birth. It's a first-class event. And his cousin Liu Ke is getting married. The wedding date is around the end of the year. Yizhou to Youzhou, the road is long, he doesn't go back in advance, I'm afraid it's too late.
Before leaving, he specially summoned Mayake, chattering, and all kinds of advice, so that Luo Yeke was moved, and finally let Liu Bei Haosheng enjoy a beautiful woman's gentleness. At the farewell banquet, Liu Bei raised his glass and said with a smile: "Thanks to the great help of everyone here this year, Bajun has such a good situation. Ba County is a good place, outstanding people, and I believe that with your help again, it will develop even better in the coming year. ā
Everyone hurriedly raised their glasses to accompany each other. Liu Bei took a bite of the dish and said: "In the coming year, Liu's family will come to the west, and they will be happy to see the scenery here." ā
Someone asked, "The envoy wants to bring his family to Ba County next year?" ā
Liu Bei smiled and said: "Yes, otherwise, one family and two places, I am worried, and I can't serve the saint wholeheartedly, if I miss a big thing, how can I do it?" ā
Some people secretly complained in their hearts, Liu Bei has moved his family here, what is he going to do, not leaving? To be honest, it is not without benefit to follow Liu Bei, but they really don't like it. Besides, there is this lord who can't rub a little sand in his eyes is sitting in Ba County, and they are all cautious with their tails between their legs, for fear that they will violate the ban again in something. People don't talk about feelings, last time the second son of Li Muran's family was riding a horse in the downtown of Jiangzhou, startling pedestrians, and was bumped into by Zhang Juan, and he started to hit the board on the ground on the spot. It was a real fight, and Li Ergongzi's buttocks were blurred with flesh and blood. Since then, the juniors of each family have followed the rules one by one, and they have never been so well-behaved.
They are all free and arrogant, and they are really not used to having such a master on their heads. When I heard that Liu Bei would come to Ba County with his family next year, I felt a little weak in my heart, when will this day be a head. So some people thought carefully, yes, forget it, don't wait, hurry up and take advantage of the Spring Festival to do activities. Make more money and invite Liu Bei away. Please come back to the person who doesn't do anything, even if you just turn a blind eye. Of course, it would be nice to have someone who could join them.
Liu Bei didn't know that there was such a careful thought in their stomachs. After the banquet, he turned over and got on his horse and went all the way to Youzhou. Hurry up and hurry, and finally rushed back to Lousang before Liu Ke's wedding.
Liu Gong had a rare look of joy, pulled Liu Bei to a person, and said, "Xuande, this is your brother's father-in-law, Zhongshan Sushuang Su Ziquan, come and see your Uncle Su." ā
said to the man again: "Lao Su, do you see, this is my nephew Liu Xuande, my Lousang Liu's family's Qianli horse." After speaking, he stroked his beard and laughed heartily.
Liu Bei looked at the handsome middle-aged man with a rather elegant temperament in front of him, and said in his heart, is this the Zhongshan giant businessman in history who has seen the beginning and the end of the dragon? But he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly gave a salute and said: "Foolish nephew Liu Bei, I have seen Uncle Su." "Today, Liu Ke is a day of great joy, only talking about seniority, not about the level of official position. Liu Bei is here, he is the same small character as Liu Ke, how dare he take it.
Su Shuang glanced at Liu Bei a few times, held it up, and said with a smile: "I have heard the name of a virtuous nephew for a long time, and I can see it today, sure enough, there are dragons and phoenixes among people, and he is handsome!" ā
Liu Bei smiled: "Uncle praised it falsely. "I was puzzled in my heart, Liu Ke now has an official body, how did he find the daughter of a giant businessman? It's not that Liu Bei looks down on businessmen, but he always feels that there is something strange in them. How did my uncle recognize Su Shuang, and why had he never heard of it before? Su Shuang appeared, where is Zhang Shiping now? The more I thought about it, the more chaotic my heart became, but I was caught and instructed to do this and that, and I was so busy that I didn't have time. They are all elders of the same clan, and Liu Bei, even if he is a county guard, he doesn't dare to say anything.
Finally finished his work, Liu Bei finally found Liu Gong, and when he saw that there was no one around, he grabbed Liu Gong's sleeve and said, "Uncle, how do you recognize Uncle Su Shuangsu?" There have long been eunuchs in Beijing who intend to marry Brother Xu Ke, how did they marry Uncle Su's daughter? ā
Liu Gong smiled: "I know you can't help it!" But he went out again and found Liu Ke. The three of them walked together to a no-man's land at the entrance of the village. Liu Gong looked back at Liu Bei seriously and said, "Xuande, do you remember when I took you to see your Uncle Zhang Shi?" Do you remember what I told you on the road that day? ā
Liu Bei remembered that when he and Liu Ke came back from the south, they found that Hua Er's group had died cleanly, and he felt strange in his heart, so he grabbed Liu Gong and asked, Liu Gong was impatient to be asked, so he took him to see Zhang Bo, which was also the first time he saw Zhang Fei.
Then, on the way back, the sky was as dark as my uncle's deep voice at that time. My uncle said a lot at that time, which made him understand a lot of things at that time. So Liu Bei nodded solemnly and said, "I remember, my uncle told me that he wanted me to bury my head in work and not participate in party and political disputes." ā
Liu Gong looked at Yingting's nephew and said with satisfaction: "Yes, you did a good job." Xuande, you are very good, better than me and your father. ā
Liu Gong took two steps and said: "Xuande, I also told you that the chaos in the world has been revealed, you must remember the word unity, unite all the forces that can be united, and protect the family, do you remember?" ā
Liu Bei nodded solemnly and said, "Nephew remembers!" ā
Liu Gong nodded, then turned to Liu Ke and said, "Ke'er kneel!" ā
Liu Ke looked confused, not knowing what was going on, but he couldn't help but kneel down obediently.
