The Three Great Han Dynasties: Awaken Liu Bei with a scolding; you weave mats and sell sandals.
Chapter 150: The Holy Mother Liu Bei?
Chapter 152: The Holy Mother Liu Bei?
At this moment, Liu Hong surprisingly spoke harshly, which showed just how disappointed he was.
The entire Liu family, the entire Liu clan of Youzhou, from beginning to end, can only have one voice, and must have only one voice. This is Liu Hong's bottom line, and no one can change it.
"Father."
Liu Bei shouted, his face full of displeasure.
Unfortunately, at this very moment, Liu Hong had already brought Guan Yu and Zhang Fei over.
"Brother."
The two men wore wry smiles.
Liu Bei glared at them, but the two men still didn't back down an inch.
Although the bond between brothers is profound, how can it compare to the bond between father and son?
Nowadays, when they see Liu Hong, they still have to call him their godfather. Moreover, in family matters like this, it is much more appropriate to listen to the elders than to listen to Liu Bei.
I offended Liu Hong.
Even though they were disloyal, unfilial, and unjust, the people of the world wouldn't be too harsh on them for offending Liu Bei.
"Please, brother, don't put us in a difficult position. Please listen to our godfather."
Your godfather is not harming you by doing this, but helping you.
"Brother, you should understand Father's good intentions. He did all this for all of us. Even if there was selfishness involved, it was definitely for you. How can you not understand?"
At this moment, both men sided with Liu Hong, which infuriated Liu Bei.
He turned his head and began to reflect on his mistakes behind closed doors in the Liu Garden, so he didn't need to go back to the Liu residence in Luoyang.
"Okay, I understand. I'll do as you say. You're all my good brothers."
Liu Bei said in a suppressed voice.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who were guarding outside the gate of Liuyuan Garden, were both amused and exasperated, but they still gritted their teeth and continued to do their work.
No one is allowed to come to see him without Liu Hong's permission.
Soon, news of Liu Bei's confinement spread throughout the entire Liu family's sphere of influence, which also eliminated any potential hidden dangers within the Liu family's internal stronghold in the first instance.
As the news gradually spread, countless Liu family retainers breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Liu Hong is now in charge of the Liu family, offending the young master is definitely not a good thing. A person without foresight will have immediate worries. Now that the immediate worries have been resolved, it is time to seriously consider the long-term issues.
As a result, Tong Yuan, Shi Tai'a, and the others were able to do things much more smoothly.
The wandering knights were known for their decisive actions, especially since this was the first time Lord Liu Hong had personally given the order.
They all gave it their all.
Especially the Gun God Tong Yuan, whose skills have reached a state of perfection, acted quietly and imperceptibly in the affairs of the Zhu family, as if no one had noticed, but the losses he caused to the Zhu family were enormous.
However, in just half a month, the entire Zhu family was in a state of utter chaos, with problems arising in all aspects.
If this situation continues, the Zhu family will not even be able to maintain the current situation, and they will be unable to manage the family itself. At that time, how can they control the vast Han Imperial Guard? That would be nothing but a pipe dream.
"Damn it! The Liu family has gone too far, resorting to such despicable acts. How could the dignified Duke Weining, the great general, be the kind of person to do such low-class things? It's utterly disappointing."
At this moment, in the main hall of the Zhu family's backyard, the dignified General Zhu Jun was also there, but he was cursing like a street thug, and he just wouldn't stop cursing.
He was furious and kept complaining to his friend Lu Zhi, hoping that the latter could stand in his shoes and help him vent his anger.
Lu Zhi's reaction was to lower his eyes and look at his face with a calm and smug expression, as if he were indifferent to these matters.
He was already fully prepared mentally.
"This is the revenge from the Duke of Weining."
Don't forget what kind of background this Duke Weining came from.
In the past, he was just a county official in that small place called Zhuo County. Going back further...
His branch of the Han imperial family had all fallen into obscurity.
Under such circumstances, it would be truly strange if someone had never done anything of the sort.
Therefore, it's understandable that he did something seemingly dishonorable and inconsistent with the values of a noble family, and he didn't go too far.
Lu Zhi chuckled and spoke, and Zhu Ou almost fainted upon hearing this.
He sneered coldly, "We haven't done anything too outrageous. It's just that we've been causing trouble here and there, splashing dog blood, dumping excrement, and blocking people on the road. If all else fails, we've deliberately had the local government offices in various places give my Zhu family members a warm welcome."
But the time wasted in this process has caused far too many important things to be delayed. How could this be allowed to happen?
Zhu Jun was seething with hatred; if it were Liu Hong, he would have directly smeared him with slander.
He was able to retaliate, even though they had clearly "warmly welcomed" him, spending real money to treat the Zhu family members, especially his branch, with great courtesy.
Therefore, this matter should not be discussed even in the imperial court.
For a general like him, the head of the Han Imperial Guard, to demand an explanation was pure wishful thinking.
That's why.
He felt so frustrated at this moment, with nowhere to vent his anger.
"Don't you want to say that such behavior is shameless and despicable?"
But have you ever considered that this kind of shameless behavior is remarkably similar to that of someone else?
Lu Zhi drank sake, which had a very low alcohol content, so he naturally wouldn't get drunk.
At this moment, dressed in a light robe, he truly looked like a reclusive hermit.
His reminder made Zhu Jun's heart skip a beat.
His gaze was deep and unfathomable. He suddenly realized what was happening and was so surprised that he could hardly close his mouth, his face full of astonishment.
"You mean to say that this child has the bearing of a great-grandfather?"
"Don't you have any?"
Lu Zhi's casual question immediately silenced Zhu Reng.
He thought about it for a long time, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.
Wasn't a minor county official the same position as the pavilion chief that Emperor Gaozu of Han once held during the Qin Dynasty?
Later, Emperor Gaozu of Han married Lü Zhi, a member of the prestigious Lü family, who was the former Empress of Han. And Liu Hong, wasn't he marrying Cai Yan, the daughter of the great Confucian scholar Cai Yong?
Although she was not the principal wife but a concubine, the similarities between them were so excessive that they left people speechless.
Besides, the speed at which this Duke of Weining rose to power seems too similar to that of Emperor Gaozu of Han, so similar that it leaves one speechless.
Just as Zhu Jun remained silent, Lu Zhi, who was standing beside him, was not about to let him off so easily. Instead, he continued to make sarcastic remarks: "Hahaha, I'm afraid that the great Confucian scholar Cai Yong had already thought of these things back in Zhuojun. Otherwise, why would he have so easily married his daughter to him, and as a mere concubine at that?"
