"Let him in"

Liu Biao walked back to his seat and sat down. A few days ago, Liu Jing was injured in Xinye. His appearance shocked him. He didn't know if he was better now.

The door opened, Liu Jing, dressed in a military uniform and a military officer's hat, walked in quickly, knelt down and bowed, "My nephew greeted my uncle"

Liu Biao looked him up and down and looked a little better than when he saw him last time, but Liu Biao did not notice Liu Jing's changes last time. Today, Liu Biao realized that Liu Jing became more burly and strong than a few months ago, and he seemed to have grown a little taller.

Liu Biao was slightly stunned. It was because he was dazzled that Liu Jing had actually grown taller.

"Jing'er, why do I think you have grown taller?"

Before the Xinye War broke out, Liu Jing had been practicing martial arts under the water for months. The hard training every night made him stronger and his strength doubled. He also found that he had grown taller, about an inch taller.

Liu Jing smiled embarrassedly and said, "Report to my uncle, my nephew has indeed grown an inch taller."

"Haha, this is a good thing. Is your injury better?" Liu Biao asked with concern again.

"When I say my uncle, it's already scabbed, and the doctor said it's okay, it'll be fine in a few days.

Liu Biao nodded, changed the topic and returned to today's business. He took a report from the table and said with a smile: "The general hired to submit a formal report to me yesterday. He praised your performance in this battle, saying that you are born with a commander and suggested that I train you well and use you more. I thought about it for a long time last night. I decided to let the veteran general Huang Zhong teach you martial arts and strategies. General Huang had already agreed just now."

After saying that, Liu Biao looked at Liu Jing with sharp eyes. He didn't want to hear Liu Jing's rejection again.

Liu Jing felt a complex feeling, both happy and a little regretful. He didn't understand Liu Biao's intention. Did he still not want him to get close to Zhao Yun, or rather, he didn't want him to get close to Liu Bei, so he found another master for himself.

If it were someone else, he would certainly not agree, but now it is Huang Zhong, Guan, Zhang, Zhao, Ma, Huang, Huang, Huang, Huang, Huang, Huang, and Huang Zhong, who is the Five Tiger Generals. How can he not be moved?

But how did he explain to Zhao Yun? After all, Zhao Yun teaches his martial arts wholeheartedly. Although he does not have the name of a master or apprentice, he has the feeling of teaching arts. If he really worships Huang Zhong as his teacher, what would Zhao Yun feel in his heart?

Liu Jing was also embarrassed. He didn't know how to reply, but he knew one thing in his heart that this time he could no longer disobey Liu Biao's arrangements. He finally changed Liu Biao's view of himself in the Xinye Battle.

If you don’t cherish this opportunity and reject Liu Biao again, it will be detrimental to his future. Well, you can only agree first before talking.

"The nephew is willing to obey his uncle's arrangements"

Liu Jing's statement made Liu Biao very happy. It was rare that his nephew agreed to his arrangement so readily.

"This matter is decided. You go to Nandaying to find General Huang Zhong and General Wang Wei's side tomorrow morning, and I will explain it to him."

"Nephew's obedience"

Liu Biao was in a good mood and loved Liu Jing quite a bit, and asked with a smile: "What impact will it have on you after this Xinye Battle, for example, have you ever felt injustice?"

After the Xinye Battle, most of the people of Liu Biao received rewards, and even the navy troops who did not participate in the war were rewarded. Only Liu Biao suppressed the achievements of Liu Jing and Liu Hu and deleted their names from the battle report.

So almost no one in Xiangyang City knew that Liu Jing made great contributions, and no one talked about him, and even Liu Bei couldn't stand it. While thanking Liu Biao for his support, he also implicitly reminded Liu Biao that Liu Jing made achievements.

But Liu Biao was unmoved and never made any statement. He still let Liu Jing take up his original position and guard the military marquis of Fancheng.

Liu Biao had his own considerations, but he wanted to know whether Liu Jing had any objections to his injustice.

Liu Jing shook his head. He didn't care about any reward. He only had endless sorrow for Deng Wu's death. He even felt that accepting any reward was a blasphemy to Deng Wu. He could never forget the desperate gaze that Deng Wu looked at him before his death.

Liu Biao refused to give him a reward, which was exactly what he wanted.

"My nephew thanked my uncle for his reward for Deng Wu and for his generous pension to the fallen soldiers. My nephew begged me to arrange for Deng Wuzhi to go to Lumen Academy. This is my nephew's only request, and there is nothing else to ask for."

Liu Biao stroked his beard and sighed, "You are a person who values ​​love and righteousness. I will write a letter to ask Mr. Pang De to accept Deng Wuzhi. In fact, he has asked me to hire me. He is also very sad about Deng Wu's death."

"Thank you for your arrangement"

Liu Jing stood up and said, "That nephew is gone."

Liu Biao nodded, "If you have any problems in the future, you can come to me directly, maybe you can go to the state yard, so you don't have to worry about it."

"My nephew remembered."

Liu Jing bowed and stepped back. Liu Biao looked at his strong and tall back and thought to himself: Yi is right. Qi'er is too weak to bear the great cause of Jingzhou. It requires Jing'er to help him. Jing'er can really become Qi'er's right-hand man.

.........

Liu Jing left Liu Biao's study and walked quickly towards the outside house. Perhaps it was because of his narrow enemy. He had just walked out of a courtyard, but he met Mrs. Cai at the entrance of the courtyard.

Liu Jing was walking fast and almost collided with the two. Mrs. Cai frowned at first. When she saw clearly that the officer in armor in front of her was Liu Jing, her two willow eyebrows immediately stood up.

"It's you"

From the first day of the first lunar month to now, Mrs. Cai has not seen Liu Jing for more than a month. Liu Jing’s life trajectory has no intersection with her. Even after coming to Xiangyang, Mrs. Cai gradually forgot Liu Jing.

But some memories can never be forgotten, but they are temporarily forgotten. In some unintentional moments, they are like the wind blowing away the sand that covers the memory, and those forgotten pasts suddenly appear in front of you again.

At this moment, Mrs. Cai suddenly remembered the child she had lost, and the poisonous stinging in her heart hurt her again.

"What are you doing?" Mrs. Cai looked at him coldly.

Liu Jing has long been accustomed to the hatred of Mrs. Cai and will not take it seriously. More importantly, the battle between Xinye made him experience life and death, and he took many things lightly. Mrs. Cai, who had bothered him a few months ago, now has no effect on his mentality.

Liu Jing gave a gift and replied lightly: "Report to my wife, uncle has something to come to me."

"Hmph I heard that you have been promoted and have been a hero in Fancheng, and no one cares about anyone."

Mrs. Cai didn't know about Liu Jing's participation in the war. The promotion she mentioned was whether Liu Jing was promoted from You Jiao to Military Marquis from the governor of the army a month ago. This was also because Liu Biao deliberately did not mention Liu Jing in front of her.

"Mrs. I am just a little military marquis. How dare I be a mighty man in Fancheng? I don't know where my wife got this news."

"Someone told me, Liu Jing, I advise you to be self-aware and not to think that you are the nephew of the provincial governor, you can do whatever you want. Tell you that I know everything you do, and the provincial governor is also clear."

Mrs. Cai sneered. She wanted to teach Liu Jing a lesson again to vent her hatred, but she couldn't find any reason for it. Liu Jing's tall figure stood in front of her, giving her an invisible sense of oppression, which made her unable to stand.

Mrs. Cai glared at Liu Jing fiercely, and surrounded by a group of maids, she headed towards the inner courtyard.

Liu Jing looked at her walking away, smiled, turned around and left.

...........

After leaving Liu's mansion, Liu Jing took out the war horse from the horse's house, turned over and ran away, and headed towards the north city.

Soon, Liu Jing entered the North Gate Wengcheng. At this moment, a group of horse riders came towards him, chatting and laughing, and a silver bell-like laughter came faintly with the wind.

Gradually, the group approached and saw a group of officials who went out for a walk in the suburbs. They were Liu Cong and Cai Shaoyu.

Liu Cong wore a golden crown on his head, a white satin brocade robe, and a jade belt on his waist. He rode on a high-headed horse with a spring breeze on his face, and felt a kind of elegance like a handsome tree facing the wind.

Cai Shaoyu beside him was riding a rouge horse, wearing a light green dress, wearing a big red cloak, wearing a thin red powder on her face, combing her hair to the ring, and inserting a jade-inlaid gold hairpin inlay. Because of the excitement, her face was red and an uncontrollable smile appeared in her eyes.

Her eyes turned, but she saw Liu Jing at first sight. The smile in her eyes disappeared, and the expression on her face turned into a little uncomfortable.

She hasn't seen Liu Jing in recent months and has received a clear statement from her father. Her marriage with Liu Jing has failed, so she should be happy.

But for some reason, she felt a little disappointed, especially when she saw Liu Jing and Tao Zhan together, Tao Zhan's beauty made her feel indescribable jealousy.

Even she didn't understand her thoughts. Of course, she didn't think she was in love with Liu Jing. She liked Liu Cong, liked his understanding and flattery. When she was with him, she could laugh out loud.

But the impression that Liu Jing left on her was only fierce and powerful, and she could not forget it. He grabbed his arm and threw himself into the yard like a chick. It was a humiliation she had never encountered since she was a child.

It made her unforgettable and difficult to let go. She was full of hatred for Liu Jing, but when Liu Jing and her became strangers and had nothing to do with each other, she felt that she had lost something.

It was like something that should belong to her, suddenly lost. Even if she didn't like it, she still felt a loss that she no longer had.

Cai Shaoyu's face was not rosy, and she still had a sense of excitement. But a dozen steps away, Liu Jing, whose eyes were dull, made her feel a little panicked. She lowered her head and did not dare to look at him.

But Liu Jing didn't look at her at all and ignored her existence. Liu Jing had already left this girl who had troubled him.

He bowed to Liu Cong and smiled, "Brother Cong, it's been a long time since we saw you."

Most of the dozen officials behind were sixteen or seventeen years old, all of whom were dressed in a furious manner, and they had an uncontrollable sense of superiority on their faces. Among these people, except for one of the Cai family brothers, Cai Hong and Liu Jing, he did not know any of the other young people.

More than a dozen people stopped and glanced at Liu Jing sideways. There was a sense of disdain in their eyes. Naturally, they didn't know what Liu Jing had recently had. The impression of him was still a month ago. In their eyes, Liu Jing's transfer was not a good thing.

From being fat and jealous of You Jiao, the governor of Fancheng, to becoming a gatekeeper of Fancheng, everyone in Xiangyang believed that this was the result of Liu Jing offending Zhang Yun.

A person who is ignorant of the world is easily hated by a few months after coming to Xiangyang.

Although Liu Jing is the nephew of the provincial governor, it may be extraordinary in the eyes of ordinary people, but what is it worth in the eyes of these officials?

Of course, there is another more important reason, that is, the jealousy of their peers. There was a time in Jingzhou, which was composed of these officials and brothers. Relying on their father's mercy, each of them regarded themselves as future officials in Jingzhou. They were even more xenophobic than their fathers.

However, after Liu Jing, an alien, caused great response in Jingzhou, it also caused a lot of response in the Jingzhou sub-official field, but what it received was not praise, but more jealousy and ridicule.

When Liu Jing was removed from the rich You Jiao Supervisor and changed to the Marquis of the Military Marquis of Fancheng, his disguised demotion became a joke in the officialdom.

Liu Cong knew a little about Liu Jing's participation in the war, but he would never say anything to him, which would make him Liu Cong's incompetence. Liu Cong laughed hypocritically and said: "It's rare to see Brother Jing in Xiangyang. Where is Brother Jing going?"

“A little official business.”

Liu Jing smiled faintly and then bowed: "There is still something for Fancheng, so I'll say goodbye first."

"Brother Jing is very busy, so please do it."

Liu Jing ignored Cai Shaoyu, and he turned a blind eye to the group of officials behind him and rode out of the city.

Everyone turned around and looked at him walking away, whispering, "I'm arrogant, I'm so arrogant, I don't even understand the minimum etiquette."

"He thought he was very busy, we were very leisurely, so he looked down on us, so he pretended to be noble."

Amid the sarcasm, Cai Shaoyu turned around and stared at Liu Jing's back, her face very ugly.

Liu Jing didn't take her seriously, and didn't even look at her directly, as if she didn't exist. This disregarded humiliation formed a strong contrast with the glory of the stars just now, which made her heart unacceptable for a moment. This filled her heart with anger that was ignored, which completely destroyed her interest in going outing today.

"Shaoyu, are you feeling uncomfortable?" Liu Cong noticed Cai Shaoyu's abnormality and asked with concern.

"Nothing, I'm going back."

Cai Shaoyu was a little irritable, lost her patience, and her tone was full of anger, "I'm a little tired, go back and rest first."

"I'll send you back." Liu Cong's voice was gentle, and he was as considerate and caring as ever.

Cai Shaoyu felt Liu Cong's care, her anger calmed down slightly, and her voice softened, "No need, I can go back by myself."

She urged Ma Xian to go to the city. Liu Cong remembered something and hurriedly chased her and reminded her: "Don't forget it tomorrow Wangjiang Tower."

"Let's talk about it tomorrow." Cai Shaoyu was no longer interested and answered weakly, gradually moving away.

"Mr. Cong, what's wrong with her?" asked a professional brother curiously.

"I don't know either, maybe she's a little tired."

Liu Cong looked at her back and walked away, and his teeth slowly clenched. He knew that Cai Shaoyu's sudden depression must have something to do with Liu Jing.

For some reason, another beautiful face appeared in Liu Cong's mind. The daughter of the Tao family, she actually refused her invitation. Is she not as good as Liu Jing?

At this time, Liu Cong felt a little inexplicable jealousy towards Liu Jing. Of course, this was related to his father's always praise Liu Jing in recent days, and his father had never praised him like this.
