Soldiers come to the world

Huang Yong has always been favored by Huang Zu since he was a child. He is very similar to Huang Zu in terms of appearance and personality, which makes Huang Zu very happy. In addition, he has practiced martial arts diligently since he was a child, and he has developed a strong martial arts, which makes Huang Zu admire him even more. .

Although Huang Yong is hot-tempered and cruel, Huang Zu doesn't care at all. He was the same when he was young. After this age, when he is 30 years old, he will gradually become sensible and learn to control himself.

So Huang Yong pursued Tao Zhan crazily, and Huang Zu didn't interfere too much, as long as Huang Yong didn't marry Tao Zhan as his wife or become a concubine or something, he didn't care.

But today, Huang Zu regretted it for the first time. He shouldn't have indulged his son so much, causing him to be reckless and reckless about the consequences. It is very likely that his foundation will be destroyed in the hands of this rebellious son.

Huang Zu saw his son staring blood red like a wild beast, he swung his arms again, slapped Huang Yong heavily on the face again, and roared like thunder, "If you dare to touch a hair on his hair, I will peel off yours!" Skin!"

Huang Yong had never seen his father so furious, and finally felt a little timid in his heart. His arrogance was suppressed, and he lowered his head deeply, without saying a word.

Huang Zu knew that his son's mind could not understand the complicated officialdom struggles, and he didn't want to explain to him, so he waved his hand and ordered his subordinates to take him away.

"My lord, do you want to continue to imprison the young master?" the soldier uncle asked in a low voice.

Huang Zu was a little distraught, he wanted to rush to Xiakou immediately and urge Xiakou to garrison troops, how could he rest assured that this troublemaker was in Chaisang, he thought for a while and said: "Send him to Wuchang, let his brother take care of himself Take care, just say it's my order, don't let him go out!"

Several personal soldiers brought Huang Yong down, Huang Zu took Cai Mao's letter and read it again, Liu Biao was ready to go, and he didn't know what action he would take against Jiang Xia next, at this moment, Huang Zu was very anxious, he wanted to immediately Rush to Xiakou deployment.

. . . . .

Liu Jing's residence in Tao Mansion is located in the northwest corner of the East Courtyard. It is an independent small courtyard. A dozen of his subordinates, including Wang Tai, live together in this small courtyard. There are not many distinguished guests who can enjoy the treatment of an independent courtyard. Apart from Liu Jing, there was only Liu Cong who came to celebrate the birthday on behalf of Zhou Mu.

The courtyard where Liu Cong lives is not far away, only a few dozen steps away from Liu Jing's small courtyard. After lunch, Liu Jing took a nap for half an hour to recharge his energy. He will start practicing martial arts in the evening. He was delayed on the road these days. Already anxious.

"How long are you going to stay in Tao Mansion this time, Young Master?" Xu Shu sat aside and asked with a smile.

Liu Jing stretched his waist and said with a smile: "I don't know how long I will stay, the key is when will my uncle allow me to return to Xiangyang?"

"Actually, what I mean is that if possible, the young master should stay as long as possible and establish friendship with the Tao family."

Liu Jing looked at Xu Shu strangely. He knew that Xu Shu was not someone who would speak casually. This morning, when he and Huang Yong confronted each other like that, he didn't say a word. Now that he suddenly mentioned the Tao family, he must be referring to something.

"Yuan Zhi might as well say it clearly."

"I talked with Guanshi Zhao for a while this morning, and I realized how powerful the Tao family is. He may have said that the Tao family has more than [-] large warehouses in the Jiangdong border along the river, and the business of grain and salt. It was huge, and although the exact number is unknown, it still shocked me."

Liu Jing nodded, "Just looking at the Tao Mansion, I feel that they are just an ordinary big family. They are very low-key, making it impossible to believe that they are the richest man in the south. Clever and helpless."

"My lord, what I mean is, one day in the future, my lord will use Jiang Xia as his foundation, so what benefits can such a strong family property of the Tao family bring to your lord?"

Liu Jing stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, staring out of the window for a long while, Xu Shu continued: "The Tao family is very smart, and they spread their wealth everywhere. The government is willing to take it out, which is why I persuade you to establish friendship with the Tao family."

Liu Jing still didn't speak, but his eyes became deeper.

.

In the afternoon, a carriage drove out of the north gate of Chaisang, and then turned around and headed west. On both sides of the carriage, besides a dozen of Liu Jing's subordinates, there were also hundreds of servants with knives from Tao's mansion. Tao Zhan had been killed by Tao Zhan. Since Huang Yong was still haunting Chaisang in the morning, the Tao family was very careful.

Liu Jing followed Tao Zhan's carriage all the way out of the city. Tao Zhan remained silent. Liu Jing also felt Tao Zhan's mood changes. Her mood seemed very low. Liu Jing didn't bother her. He felt that her mood was not good. It seems that it has something to do with her mother, Liu Jing had already learned the details from Xiao Baozi at noon.

A maid serving Tao Zhan’s mother came back from visiting relatives in her hometown, and soon fell ill, and then Tao Zhan’s mother and two other maids also fell down one after another. Zhan's mother and two other maids.

But these days coincided with the birthday of Mr. Tao, and there were a lot of people praying for his birthday. The Tao family was afraid of accidents, so they sent the three patients to a bhikkhu temple in the west of the city for isolation. She has practiced in the Buddhist temple, and this time, she also hopes that she can be blessed by the Buddha.

The trip was safe and sound, without any harassment. After traveling for about ten miles, a Buddhist temple appeared in a bamboo forest in front of us. Buddhism was introduced to the Central Plains during the Eastern Han Dynasty and gradually became popular. However, it was not fully accepted by the people at the end of the Han Dynasty. The upper class believed in it, and it was not until the Southern and Northern Dynasties that Buddhism began to spread on a large scale.

The Tao family is also one of the few Buddhist families in Chaisang. They built two monasteries in the Chaisang area, one in the south of the city, dedicated to more than a hundred monks.

The other one is located in the west of the city, which is a Bhikshu nunnery, where more than a hundred female monks who believed in Buddhism practiced here, but they did not become monks, nor did they live in the monastery for a long time. Will come here to practice, usually only a few female believers guard the temple.

The carriage stopped slowly in front of the temple. Tao Zhan got out of the carriage and said to Liu Jing in a low voice: "My mother has fallen ill and is staying here temporarily. There is someone to take care of her."

Liu Jing sighed secretly in his heart. He guessed that it was some kind of infectious disease, and isolation should be done, but as long as the isolation is effective, it doesn't matter to live in the mansion. Moving out of the mansion for isolation will deal a heavy blow to the patient's body and mind.

It should be that the Tao family was afraid of infecting the guests, so they moved her out, and Liu Jing knew that as long as they didn't have direct contact and washed their hands in time, it was actually not a big problem.

Tao Zhan whispered again: "At first I didn't agree, but my father said it was my mother's intention. My mother believes in Buddhism, and she hopes to be blessed by Buddha, so I agreed."

Liu Jing thought about it, this is not bad, recuperating in a Buddhist temple is also a kind of psychological comfort for believers.

"Let's go! Let's go in and have a look."

Liu Jing accompanied Tao Zhan into the Buddhist temple and came to a small courtyard where there were seven or eight maids serving them. They happened to meet a medical craftsman coming out, and Tao Zhan quickly asked, "Mr. Li, how is my mother? "

The doctor smiled wryly and shook his head, "The situation hasn't deteriorated, but I suspect typhoid fever. I have already suggested to your father to go to Changsha County to invite Zhang Taishou as soon as possible. I don't know if Zhang Taishou has time."

Zhang Taishou of Changsha County, that is, Zhang Zhongjing, a famous doctor in the late Han Dynasty, has excellent medical skills, especially in the treatment of typhoid fever. He was appointed as the prefect of Changsha County last fall.

It was Zhang Zhongjing's efforts that made Jingzhou people understand some common sense, such as immediately quarantining if an infectious disease is found, which has saved many lives invisibly.

Liu Jing said beside him: "Should I go to Changsha and invite Zhang Taishou? He should give me this face."

"That's not necessary. My grandfather was an official in Nanyang County in the early years, and he has a deep friendship with the Zhang family. As long as my father writes a letter, he will definitely come." Speaking of this, Tao Zhan gave Liu Jing a grateful look. .

"Young master, please wait outside. I'll go and see my mother and I'll be back."

Tao Zhan walked quickly into the yard, while Liu Jing was pacing outside the yard with his hands behind his back. After a while, Tao Zhan walked out quickly, with red eyes, and whispered: "Young master, can you come in, my mother wants to see you you."

Liu Jing nodded silently, walked into the yard, and followed Tao Zhan into the room. The room was dark, filled with a strong smell of medicine and pungent lime, the corners and the ground were covered with lime, and there were two maids standing against the wall, Trying to endure the stimulation of lime.

The windows were deliberately covered with cloth, and the bed by the window was covered with a thin layer of gauze. Inside the gauze lay a woman with a thin face, sunken eyes, and a sallow complexion without a trace of blood. ,, Although her condition is serious, she can still see her beauty when she was young.

Tao Zhan took two steps forward, knelt down in front of her, held her hand, held back tears and said in a low voice, "Mother, he's here."

Seeing Liu Jing, Huang's eyes showed a gratified smile, Liu Jing also stepped forward, knelt down in front of the woman and saluted, "Auntie!"

The woman stretched out her hand tremblingly to him, Liu Jing hesitated, and took her hand too. The woman patted the back of his hand, then took Tao Zhan's hand, and held their hands tightly together, tears flowed from her eyes popped out.

At this time, Tao Zhan was shy, sad, and a little embarrassed. She just told her mother what she was thinking, and didn't say what Liu Jing's attitude was. Hands together.

Tao Zhan suddenly understood her mother's heart. She knew she was alive soon, and she could only love someone. No matter who she was, she would entrust herself to him. This is the greatest wish of a mother. At the last moment, she didn't want to I wronged my daughter.

Tao Zhan came out of grief, tears rolled down, "Mother!"

The woman touched her daughter's face lovingly again, she suddenly looked at Liu Jing, a light burst out of her cloudy eyes, with endless expectations, Liu Jing understood the woman's gaze, and he nodded slowly. Nodding, gave her a solemn promise.

Mrs. Huang laughed, her eyes full of kindness, Liu Jing saluted her, got up and left slowly.

Walking out of the room, Liu Jing took a long breath. He suddenly understood why Tao Zhan brought him to visit his mother. He wanted her mother to take a look at himself before leaving.
