How big can a Moe Village be? At least it didn't take long for Liu Bei and Mi Zhu to go to a lot of places. Looking at it along the way, Liu Bei and Mi Zhu both sighed, the situation of this Meng Village was in the words of the time, called "the fields are neat, the fields and valleys are abundant, every household has chickens and dogs to see its abundance, and the people are smiling", to put it a little more exaggerated, Meng Village is only afraid that "the road is not forgotten, and the night is not closed"! Then again, it is precisely because of the small village that Lu Ren's energy can be relatively concentrated, and it will be more decent to get things together.

Liu Bei was in the plain earlier, and the governance of the plain can be regarded as a good governance, but if you really want to compare it with the wealth and happiness of Meng Village, the gap here is not half a star. After all, in a sense, Liu Bei's governance can only be regarded as relatively stable in troubled times, but it is definitely not wealthy, where can Lu Ren do so many things that can make the people have abundant food and clothing?

After walking for a while, the two saw that there was a small wine shop in the village, and Liu Bei and Mi Zhu took a rest here and bought some wine and food to fill their stomachs. After a few glasses of wine, Liu Bei sighed angrily: "Although it is only a few years, Lu Yihao can be famous all over the world, and he really has his advantages." It's a pity, if Yide hadn't forced him out of Xuzhou at the beginning, maybe it would have ......"

Mi Zhu was accompanied by a few old family members who Mi Zhen brought to Xu Du at that time, so Mi Zhu also knew some related things from these people's mouths, and sighed at the moment: "It's indeed a pity." And Lu Yihao is not only good at farming, but also has a lot of insight and strategy in his chest. Can the lord still remember how he expected that Cao Mengde would attack Xuzhou? And when Cao Mengde was confronting Zhang Xiu last year, Lu Yihao hurriedly traveled hundreds of miles to send advice to Cao Mengde, but unfortunately Cao Mengde did not accept his advice, so that Zhang Xiu was defeated and returned, and even his eldest son Cao Ang was killed in battle. ”

Liu Bei raised his eyebrows, but he also remembered what he didn't ask Lu Ren yesterday, and said with a somewhat desolate wry smile: "I only sigh that Liu Bei is not blessed!" If he had been able to stay in Xuzhou at the beginning, maybe Liu Bei would not have such a bleak state today. It's a pity, it's a pity! ”

Saying that, Liu Bei suddenly frowned, and a trace of joy crossed his eyes that was not easy for others to detect: "It's just that since he has such talent, he was dismissed from his official position because of an unintentional mistake." Cao Mengde acted like this, didn't he condescend to the Magi? ”

Mi Zhu didn't answer, but the proprietress of the wine shop happened to come over with wine and food, and after hearing it, she shook her head and sighed: "Are you talking about our Mr. Lu?" He was dismissed this time, and he was really wronged! That's actually what it's all about......"

Lu Ren's dismissal cannot be known because there are some hidden secrets, so there is a gap between the folk rumors and the truth. The general rumor is that Lu Ren only knew that Cao Cao promised to exempt Mi Zhen from commercial taxes, but he didn't know that the heavy taxes on salt and iron could not be exempted, so he lost his official position because of this. And Lu Ren has always used his own money to maintain the matter of raising children and giving up, but it is also the most popular thing in the rumors.

Of course, there is a little bit of Guo Jia's operation in secret, which is also to protect Lu Ren's good reputation and prepare for Lu Ren to be transferred back in the future. But at the moment, Liu Bei and Mi Zhu will definitely not know the hidden secret, so they naturally sighed again. And in the long sigh, Liu Bei also left a little heart for Lu Ren: "Since he has a grudge with Cao Zilian, and Cao Zilian is Cao Mengde's brother, most of them will have some unsatisfactory careers, and they have to guard against Cao Zilian's poisoning plan all the time, and he will not be at ease." If I can get another inheritance in the future, with his relationship with Mi Zizhong, maybe ......"

Who is Liu Bei? It's strange not to make up your mind about people who may have a chance to win over......

――――――――――――――――――――

Lu Ren hid in Xuchang City, but Mi Zhen immediately threw down what she was doing after receiving the news, and rushed back to Meng Village to meet Mi Zhu as quickly as possible.

The person who received Mi Zhen was Lu Xin. As soon as she asked a few words, Mi Zhen was in a hurry to ask Lu Xin to take her to see Mi Zhu: "How can this be, how can this be!?" Big brother, he was actually hungry and fainted!! Do you think my eldest brother has been rich and noble since he was a child, and he is usually pampered, but once upon a time he suffered from hunger? Don't make any trouble because of this! ”

Lu Ren didn't hear this, if Lu Ren heard it, he was afraid that he would laugh and say No wonder Liu Bei could still hold on hard, but Mi Zhu had been dizzy for more than a day. After all, Liu Bei is a person who grew up in a poor family since he was a child and endured hardships, one is used to it, and the other is that Liu Bei's physical fitness is much better than Mi Zhu.

As soon as the Mi brothers and sisters met, they first cried and complained about the parting feelings between the brothers and sisters, and then immediately closed the door and began to quarrel.

"Little sister, when you came to Xu Du to defect to Lu Yihao, although it was a helpless move to avoid Lu Bu's forced marriage, why are you so ignorant of self-respect and self-love?"

Mi Zhen froze when she heard this: "What does the eldest brother mean by this?" Little sister, where do I not know self-respect and self-love? ”

Mi Zhu saw Mi Zhen like this, and thought that Mi Zhen was young and ignorant, and was deceived by Lu Ren, so he said earnestly: "Little sister, Lu Yihao is a frivolous and indulgent person, and he is greedy for women, you are young and ignorant, and you are deceived by him without knowing it, but you don't know it, but you don't ......"

Mi Zhen is not an ignorant little girl, Mi Zhu's words are only halfway through, Mi Zhen's pretty face changes: "Big brother! Do you want to say that sir, he wants to get involved with me, but he won't give me any name? ”

Mi Zhu said: "You...... Do you already know about it? Then you still help him sell goods and buy real estate for profit? ”

"Ridiculous, ridiculous!!" Mi Zhen was so angry that her nose was crooked: "Big brother, I am your own sister, and I grew up beside you since I was a child, do you still know how the little sister acts, big brother?" Yes, I was helping my husband sell goods, but I brought it up myself, and it had nothing to do with him at first! What's more, at that time, my husband didn't approve of me going to Hebei to sell iron! Also, my eldest brother, let me tell you, sir, he has never treated me lightly! My husband and I have always been innocent! ”

"Then, you still help him take care of so many properties......

Mi Zhen shook her head lightly and said, "Big brother, that's because I feel guilty about my husband...... To tell you the truth, if I hadn't insisted on going to Hebei to sell iron, my husband would not have lost his important position in the DPRK......"

There were no other people in the house, and Mi Zhen told Mi Zhu in detail about the real situation of selling iron. After hearing this, Mi Zhu was of course shocked, but he still persuaded with a little worry: "Even so, it is not appropriate for you to stay by Lu Ren's side any longer. It can be said that you are over 20 years old and have never been out of the cabinet, but you have been staying by Lu Ren's side like this, how will you behave in the future? It's better to be like this, the lord Liu Xuande is here, and the brother will go to talk to you again for the matchmaker, how about letting you marry the lord as a wife? When Lu Bu is expelled, you will return to Xuzhou with the lord......"

Mi Zhen's head lowered, and after a long time, she shook her head vigorously and said, "Big brother, if it was a year ago, I would not hesitate to agree to it." But now...... I'm not married! ”

Mi Zhu was stunned: "Why? Didn't you say that the lord had a heroic posture and was happy in his heart? ”

Mi Zhen said: "Yes, Liu Xuande is a hero in the world, and it would be a blessing if he had a husband like this." But more than a year has passed...... Xiaomei now just wants to stay by her husband's side and do her best for him. Whether she can marry or not, Xiaomei doesn't care anymore. ”

"You!!" Don't mention Mi Zhu's anger, he pointed at the tip of Mi Zhen's nose and scolded: "You are so ignorant of self-love!" ”

Mi Zhen also wanted to get angry, but she desperately held back and responded calmly: "Big brother, I know you want to say that I am willing to fall and lose my Mi family's style." But eldest brother, let me tell you, although this matter has a little bit of the younger sister's desire to repay the husband, but the little sister is more for my Mi clan, which is not only helping the gentleman, but also helping the hundreds of clan children here to make a living. ”

"You are obviously willing to fall, and you dare to say that you are fighting for my Mi clan!?"

"Big brother!" Mi Zhen forcibly suppressed Mi Zhu's voice, and asked in a somewhat cold tone: "Let me ask my eldest brother first, how much ancestral business does my Mi clan still have in Xuzhou now?" How many children of the clan are left? ”

After asking a word, Mi Zhu lost his temper, and shook his head with a bitter sigh: "It's not as good as before...... Since Xuzhou was occupied by Lu Bu, you fled to Xudu, and Lu Bu went to borrow money and grain every once in a while, but he borrowed but did not pay it back; The Chen family in Xuzhou has always been at odds with my Mi clan, so he took this opportunity to curry favor with Lu Bu and forcibly go to my Mi clan's estate. Because the Chen family has Lu Bu's support, and Lu Bu holds a grudge against me for your escape from marriage, naturally it is coercive, but I can't resist it......"

Mi Zhen said: "Then big brother, let me ask you again, even now that Cao Gong and Liu Gong work together to return to Xuzhou to expel Lu Bu, can you revive the family business?" ”

"This ......"

Mi Zhen said in a low voice: "Mr. once told me that if Cao Gong wants to break Lu Bu, he needs to cooperate with the inside and outside, and secretly has to rely on the help of the Chen family to succeed. And the Chen family is gradually growing up in Xuzhou, how can they allow my Mi family to have a place to live? ”

"......" Mi Zhu had nothing to say.

Mi Zhen sighed lightly: "These are also the things that the little sister suddenly thought of some time ago, because the gentleman's clan touched the heartstrings of the little sister when they came from Wu County to meet each other. Big brother, our Mi clan may not be able to stay in Xuzhou anymore, and we must have another foothold. Big brother, you follow Liu Gong, if Liu Gong succeeds, it will not be difficult to naturally re-establish the Mi family, but how critical is Liu Gong's situation now? It is still unknown whether it will be able to achieve great things in the future.

"Regardless of these, not to mention how generous Mr. treats my little sister, my little sister has not suffered any grievances, even if she is really wronged, even if she loses her chastity, what can she do? The little sister suffers and suffers grievances, and whether my Mi clan can survive is the real big thing! ”

Mi Zhu was mentioned by Mi Zhen about the clan, and he was only helpless. Again, the clan concept of people at that time was so strong that it was difficult for later generations to understand.

And Mi Zhen sighed softly at this time: "It's just a pity, sir...... He may have settled down and then quietly retreated. He has always had no intention of pursuing a career in office, and if he hadn't been worried about his little sister and the people around him when he was dismissed, he might have left a long time ago. And Xiaomei also promised her husband that after he left, she would help him take care of his people...... The eldest brother, maybe the younger sister is really miserable, and I really don't know if I can get married if I can go on like this. But since she has promised her husband, Xiaomei should keep her promise. ”
