Chapter 39 Section VI Enemies

Deng Chen's earnest words cannot be exchanged for Liu Xiu's acceptance of fate, or in other words, Liu Xiu's attitude at the moment is to ignore whether she can really become the emperor in the future.No matter what kind of future there will be in the future, the important thing is not to let the future change the present, but to use the present to change the future.Therefore, at dawn the next day, Liu Xiu started his scheduled itinerary, rushed to Wancheng with dozens of carts, and continued to be his businessman. When Liu Xiu arrived in Wancheng, he lived in the home of Zhu You, a classmate of Taixue. As a fugitive, Liu Xiu could not show his face in public.Seeing that the valley will be sold out, Liu Xiu is ready to return to Xinye.When Zhu You came back from selling the grain, he saw Liu Xiu was packing his luggage, so he hurriedly stopped him, but he couldn't leave. You'd better not go anywhere these days.Seeing Zhu You's solemn expression, Liu Xiu hurriedly asked why.Zhu Youdao: "Recently, there is a person who is always wandering around. He has a strange face and looks very suspicious. I think there are nine out of ten that he is here for you. To be on the safe side, let's wait and see."

Liu Xiu's heart tightened, could it be that this person is a secret agent of the government, who came here to watch him, waiting for an opportunity to arrest him and bring him to justice?It should not be too late, before the government has taken action, thirty-six strategies, the best strategy is to go, when it gets dark, Liu Xiu disregards Zhu You's dissuasion, and is about to set off when he suddenly hears the sound of beating the door.Zhu You was shocked, and signaled Liu Xiu to climb over the wall quickly.When the real thing came to an end, Liu Xiu calmed down instead, and said to Zhu You, "Answer the door. If the government really came to arrest him, there must have been a plan for it. Climbing over the wall in embarrassment is not only useless, but also makes people laugh."

Zhu You was uneasy, and went to answer the door. When the door opened, it was indeed the spy who was always hovering in front of the door.Seeing that the visitor was alone, Zhu You felt relieved, and asked, "Your Excellency, what's your business for visiting late at night?" The man looked kindly and said, "May I ask if Uncle Liu Wen is at the residence?" Zhu You replied without hesitation: "Who is Uncle Liu Wen?" The man smiled and said: "A certain Li Mingyi, entrusted by his elder brother Li Tong, came here to visit Uncle Liu Wen, without any malice."

The Li family that Li Yi lives in is a surname in Wancheng, rich in wealth and many guests, Li Yi and Li Tong are the most heroic among the younger generation of the Li family, their name Zhu You has long been heard.Zhu You saw that he was a famous person in Wancheng, so he said: "Brother Li, wait a moment." Zhu You went inside to report to Liu Xiu, and said: "The Li family is one of the most famous families in Wancheng, and it is worth making friends with, so why not meet. " Liu Xiu smiled wryly and said, "Brother Zhu doesn't know something. Although I'm afraid of the government, I'm even more afraid of the Li family in Wancheng. If the government arrests me, they will ask for money at most; if the Li family arrests me, it will be fatal!"

The story started in Chongling eight years ago: Among the Liu family in Chongling, there was a man named Liu Xuan, whose name was Shenggong, who was the brother of Liu Xiu's five servants and the old master.A local pavilion chief in Chongling detained Liu Xuan's father, Liu Zizhang, after drinking. Liu Zizhang was so furious that he didn't regard the pavilion chief as a state official at all, and stabbed the pavilion chief to death on the spot.Relying on the power of the Liu family, the case was forcibly suppressed.The pavilion chief's son was so angry that he came to seek revenge and stabbed Liu Xuan's younger brother Liu Qian seriously.Liu Yan is the leading elder brother of the Liu family's younger generation. How could he sit idly by when his younger brother was injured, so he drove Liu Qian to Wancheng overnight, begging to see the famous doctor Shen Tuchen, begging him to save Liu Qian's life.

Shen Tuchen is arrogant and arrogant, just like the later generation Hua Tuo. Although he is highly skilled in medicine, he is ashamed of his career as a doctor and rarely heals others. His real identity is actually a young man of literature. Same as.Liu Yan rushed to Shen Tuchen's mansion in a hurry, but Shen Tuchen received him, but his attitude was very cold.Oh, someone hurt?normal.What, badly hurt?That's normal too, with such a sword, anyone will be seriously injured.If you don't save him, you will die?Haha, not busy, not busy.You see, I just wrote an article "Zixu Fu". I heard that you have studied in Taixue, and you will appreciate it if you think about it. Come, I will read it for you.

Seeing Liu Qian survive on the wooden bed, but Shen Tuchen forced Liu Yan to listen to the Fu, Liu Yan was furious, but Shen Tuchen had to save Liu Qian, so he could only listen with restraint, nodding frequently, expressing Knowing, clapping your palms from time to time, pretending to be rewarding. After listening to "Zixu Fu", it's time to save people, but Shen Tuchen took another "Safari Fu", which was full of thousands of words.Liu Yan was sitting on pins and needles, hoping that Shen Tuchen would shut up soon, while praying for Liu Qian to die slowly.After reading Shen Tuchen's "Hunting Fu", Liu Qian died in response.Liu Yan was furious, he drew his sword and pointed it at Shen Tuchen's throat, and shouted: "You are a famous doctor, why don't you save yourself?"

Shen Tuchen showed no fear, and said: "Why are you swearing at people? You are a famous doctor, and your whole family is a famous doctor." Liu Yan laughed back angrily, I want to see if you are a famous doctor, the sword stabbed Shen Tuchen, bleeding profusely.Liu Yan returned the sword and sheathed it, let's see if you can save yourself.Shen Tuchen was tough enough, he ignored the injury, and sang the road song to himself, and then died of breath and passed away. After Liu Yan killed Shen Tuchen, he returned to Chongling with Liu Qian's body.Liu Xuan blamed Liu Yan for failing to get things done, and decided not to rely on Liu Yan, but to avenge his younger brother himself, so he recruited guests, accumulated dead men, and started preparations for revenge.On this day, Liu Xuan set out wine and invited guests to the banquet. You Yu (official name, equivalent to the director of the township police station) was invited to drink with him.The guests were drunk and sang, saying: "Chao cooks the two captains, and Youguo later, use a spoon to taste." Youguo was furious, turned his face on the spot, tied up the guests, and beat hundreds of times.Before leaving, he was still aggrieved, pointed at Liu Xuan and said, "You boy, wait."

This matter should be left to previous years, so it has passed. In the boundary of Nanyang, the Liu family is still in a good position.Helplessly, the two newly transferred chiefs from Nanyang County—the prefect Zhenfu and the captain Liang Qiuci—are both famously cruel officials who love to punish the rich and powerful.When the two came to Nanyang, they naturally wanted to rule the county with an iron fist and show their fists.Regarding the Liu family in Chongling, the two had long wanted to deal a cruel blow, but they never seized the opportunity.The matter of You Jiao happened together, the two were overjoyed, and immediately ordered to investigate to the end.

After this investigation, it was found that the guests kept by Liu Xuan were all desperadoes.Liu Xuan harbored a murderer, so he should be dealt with as a warning to others.When Liu Xuan heard the news, he didn't care about avenging his dead brother, so he fled overnight and went to Pinglin Grandpa's house.The government also made moves to arrest Liu Xuan's father, Liu Zizhang, and threatened that if Liu Xuan did not come back, he would kill his father to pay the debt.Liu Xuan knew that he would die when he went back, but his father had to save him, so he found a man who was about his age and build on the road, lured him to a secluded place, killed him, and then chopped him down with a sword Fuzzy, and then sent someone to send the body back to Chongling, pretending that he was dead.The government couldn't examine it carefully, believed it was true, and let Liu Zizhang go.As for Liu Xuan who escaped, he can only continue to flee. If the world is not chaotic, he will also continue to flee forever, and he will not be able to go home even if he encounters amnesty.Because in theory, he is already a dead person.

After listening to the story told by Liu Xiu eight years ago, Zhu You became more and more confused. Although there were many characters in the story—Liu Yan, Liu Xuan, Liu Qian, the prefect Zhenfu, the captain Liang Qiuci, and the famous doctor Shen Tuchen Wait, but none of them can compete with the Li family in Wancheng.Liu Xiu smiled bitterly and said, "The famous doctor Shen Tuchen who was killed by my elder brother was none other than Li Tong's half-brother! The Li family in Wancheng and my Liu family in Chongling have forged a deep hatred ever since. " Zhu You said: "However, after all, eight years have passed..." Liu Xiu still smiled wryly.Although time can kill love, it cannot kill hatred. In the currency of emotion, hatred is far stronger than love.Seeing that Liu Xiu just sighed blindly, Zhu You advised Liu Xiu: "The Li family's hands and eyes are open to the sky in Wancheng. It's not an option for you to hide like this. It's better to see it when you come here, and pay attention to it after you see it." Liu Xiu shook her head and said, "It's better not to see you." Zhu You understood, and went out to answer Li Yi: "Uncle Liu Wen has returned to Xinye, Brother Li, please go back." Li Yi laughed and said: "Ming people don't speak dark words, Uncle Liu Wen must be in the house. I also ask Brother Zhu to come in and tell me that I have no other intentions to meet Qiancheng. .” Zhu You met Liu Xiu and conveyed Li Yi's words.Seeing that Liu Xiu had made it clear, she had to see it.Li Yi entered, handed over an invitation card, grandly invited Liu Xiu to visit Li's mansion, and said that he had something important to discuss.Liu Xiu talked about him from left to right, neither saying that he would go nor saying that he would not go.Li Yi knew that Liu Xiu still had worries in his heart, so he drew his sword and cut off his hair, and swore: "If Uncle Wen enters Li's house, if he can't get out with his whole body, Li will cut off his head as a token of apology." Liu Xiu no longer had any excuses, whether it was a blessing or a disaster, and a disaster could not be avoided, so he had to promise.
