Chapter 9 Father tells you a great thing


Chapter 9 My father has a great thing to tell you

“My son, my father has something great to tell you.”

Liu Bei’s face was filled with joy, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised in joy. There is also a trace of self-respect in it.

Just from this expression, you can see how happy Liu Bei is about this great thing and how proud he is of being able to accomplish it.

Liu Feng smiled slightly, leaned forward and said: "Congratulations to my father, my son is all ears."

Are you all ears?

Liu Bei tasted this new word and felt that the words were insightful and memorable.

Liu Bei has long been accustomed to the endlessly memorable new words popping out of Liu Feng's mouth, but it still makes him love Liu Feng more every time.

"Feng'er, my father has invited a famous scholar to be your teacher today!"

After Liu Bei finished speaking, he couldn't help laughing and stroking his beard contentedly. : "My father and Yuan Long have always been good friends. Yuan Long also made great efforts to successfully take over as the state pastor this time. Yuan Long and his father are both famous people from Xuzhou's rich family. His uncle Chen Qiu was the third Duke of the Ling Emperor Dynasty and an official. Taiwei was taught by his father’s teacher, Lu Zhigong. In this way, Chen Taiwei can be regarded as his father’s master.”

Chen Qiu, like Ma Rong, was Lu Zhi's teacher, and Lu Zhi was Liu Bei's teacher. Liu Bei could indeed be regarded as Chen Qiu's true disciple.

It's just that this disciple is a little more suspected of Liu Bei's hard work. After all, he is not Lu Zhi's real disciple, he is just an outside disciple at best.

"My father has long wanted to become your disciple, but he has never been able to get what he wants. After getting to know Yuan Long, my father intended for you to become his disciple, but he was worried that he would force Yuan Long and make him unhappy. . But my father didn’t expect that Yuan Long would already have heard about your reputation of being pregnant with oranges and lying on the ice to seek carp. I am even more pleased that you understand filial piety and serve your ancestors and your mother. He is full of praise for this."

"As soon as he proposed being a father, Yuan Long agreed immediately, hahaha..."

After Liu Bei finished speaking, he laughed again.

No wonder Liu Bei was so happy.

The Chen family was one of the second-rate noble families in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the top tier of the Xiapi wealthy family in Xuzhou. Starting from Chen Gui's grandfather, Chen Qian, there were as many as seven or eight people who held the position of two thousand stone. Chen Qiu, the son of Chen Qi and the uncle of Chen Gui, was promoted to Sangong during the reign of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty and was worshiped as Taiwei.

If Chen Qiu had not aroused the vigilance and revenge of other powerful eunuchs in the process of eradicating the powerful eunuch Wang Fu, and died, it is very likely that Chen Ji and Chen Deng would have been able to return to power with their talents and reputations. There is a high-ranking official with the rank of Sangong and Jiuqing.

But even so, the Chen family is still from the Sangong family. For such a famous family, Brother Big Ear's family can be said to be a complete nouveau riche. Not to mention that Big Ear's upstart capital, the position of state pastor, was obtained by Chen Deng and his son together with Mi Zhu to help him operate it.

In both public and private matters, Brother Big Ear dreams of being deeply tied to the Chen family at this time, and apprenticeship and marriage are the best methods.

Since ancient times, the relationship between master and apprentice has been another kind of father-son relationship, and the Eastern Han Dynasty pushed this relationship to its peak.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, in addition to the relationship between father and son, the master-disciple relationship also had a relationship similar to that of monarch and minister.

The master is responsible for the future of his disciples and has the obligation to use his political energy to seek official positions for his disciples. Disciples, on the other hand, have the same obligations as kings and ministers to their masters, and must be loyal to the master.

At the same time, because of the inspection system of the Han Dynasty, masters and apprentices were politically tied together. Once one party lost his official position and was dismissed, the other party would inevitably be implicated.

If the recommended party loses his official position due to committing a crime, the recommending party may even be imprisoned for questioning.

This is also a unique feature of the dual monarchy of the Han Dynasty.

To put it more clearly, from the perspective of the inertial thinking in peaceful times, Chen Yuanlong was willing to accept Liu Feng as his disciple, and his kindness to Liu Bei was even greater than recommending him to be the state shepherd.

Because Liu Bei, the state pastor, is an incomplete state pastor, and his real territory is actually two dilapidated counties. If something goes wrong, the recommendation of Chen Deng and the Mi family can also be shied away from the public interest, so as to quickly complete the separation with Brother Big Ear.

But once Chen Deng accepted Liu Feng as his disciple, at least Chen Yuanlong himself would be deeply tied to Liu Bei.

That means both will be prosperous and both will suffer. No wonder Brother Big Ear is so happy. He and Chen Deng had a compatible personality and fell in love at first sight. They wished they could talk all night long by candlelight.

Now that the other party is willing to support him in this way, Big Ear Brother, who has always suffered from the lack of support from nobles and celebrities, is like a manna after a long drought.

I guess he had secretly laughed several times before meeting Liu Feng.

It’s just that Brother Big Ear doesn’t know the good deeds Liu Feng secretly did behind his back, and he will be extremely happy and sad next.

"Chen Gongcao is a famous scholar in Xuzhou. He has a cheerful personality, calm and open-minded, and is wise and resourceful. My son has heard about Gongcao's name for a long time, and he yearns for it. Thanks to the kindness of his father, he can be such a wise teacher. This is This boy is so blessed.”

At this time, Chen Deng was promoted by Liu Bei to the state government meritorious service. He was responsible for the selection and assessment of Xuzhou officials and personnel, which can be said to be a high-power position.

As a junior, Liu Feng, in order to express his respect and admiration, called Chen Deng Chen Gongcao.

Liu Bei nodded happily, as if Feng'er, your words have reached your father's heart.

It’s just that he doesn’t know that he is most afraid of one but.

No, Liu Feng changed the topic immediately after: "But now is not the time to pay tribute to the master, otherwise a big disaster will happen."

Brother Big Ear was nodding his head happily, the smile on his face suddenly stiffened, and he looked at Liu Feng in confusion.

Liu Bei even suspected that he was hallucinating and misheard his son's words.

Therefore, he hesitated and asked: "What did my son just say?"

Liu Feng replied seriously: "My son said that you must not worship the master at this time, otherwise my father and son There is bound to be a big disaster. At worst, you will lose your family and career. "

"You!"

Brother Big Ear was so angry that he stood up suddenly and glared at Liu Feng.

I have to say that Liu Bei is indeed a hero of the late Han Dynasty and a veteran on the battlefield.

Under this anger, a huge coercion emerged, covering Liu Feng, putting great pressure on the latter.

If Liu Feng was timid, he might not even be able to look up at Liu Bei, let alone speak.

"You..., ridiculous!"

Brother Big Ear was so angry that Liu Feng was shaking all over. He couldn't help walking back and forth, but his vicious eyes were always staring at the latter.

A moment later, Liu Bei walked up to Liu Feng, his face was as black as iron, and he asked in a cold voice: "Whose slander did you listen to, and you actually had such a rift with Yuan Long? Tell your father, Who is it!"

Liu Bei did not believe that his son would be so rebellious, and instinctively suspected that someone was trying to create a wedge between his son and Chen Deng.

Facing Liu Bei's anger, Liu Feng knew that this was a critical moment and could not give in even a step.
