Memorize Chapter 023
Liu Cong knelt like this for two hours.
How long is two hours? It's four hours.
Liu Cong was determined at this time and decided that if he could not meet his demands, he would continue to kneel down until his father relented and handed him the seal and seal of the Jingzhou Governor.
However, guarding his seal as the governor was Liu Biao's bottom line as an official, so he would never agree to Liu Cong's request.
People today may not understand what Liu Biao did, but Liu said that living in ancient feudal society, who had ever seen an emperor at that time voluntarily giving up his throne to someone else?
Since no emperor voluntarily gave up his throne, we can understand why Liu Biao was so stubborn.
Liu Biao refused to give in and guarded his bottom line as an official tightly, preventing Liu Cong from getting closer.
It seems that this old guy is stubborn enough, but his son Liu Cong is even more stubborn than him!
The father refused to give in, and the son continued to press forward.
There is no other way to force dad to give in. Since reasoning doesn't work, nor does force to rob him, then kneel down! Kneel down! Kneel down! Kneel down and surrender dad!
Liu Cong was really determined: "What I ask for must be met! If you don't believe that the young can't cure the old!"
In those two years, the home was not as decorated as it is now. Even though Liu Biao was a high-ranking official like the governor of Jingzhou, he still lived in a tiled house with a civil structure. The ground was only covered with a layer of wooden boards, and the wooden boards were covered with straw curtains and the like.
Mats, straw mats are only laid in places where people are sitting, and wooden floors are also used in places where no one is sitting.
Liu Cong was kneeling on the wooden floor at this time. He had been kneeling for four hours in a row. His knees must have been red and swollen, but Liu Cong still knelt motionless.
Liu Biao understood when he knelt down: "Damn it! You kid, you force me again now! Kneel down! It means you kneel down from today to night, from night to tomorrow, from tomorrow to next year, from next year to kneel all the time."
, don’t expect me to agree to your request! If you kneel down again, I will kill you!"
Liu Biao's last words were purely out of anger. To be honest, Liu Biao would not kill him.
Liu Cong also knew this, but Liu Cong still had to kneel. He was confident and knew how he could force his father to submit, so he continued to kneel.
This kneeling triggered a chain reaction. Liu Cong was kneeling in this room and did not go out. The servants Liang Zhuer and Fatty Lai outside the room saw Liu Cong kneeling there through the crack in the door. They did not know that Liu Cong had committed a crime.
No matter which family law was violated, he was punished by his father. In such a society, the master was punished, and the servants were automatically punished.
So Liang Zhuer and Fatty Lai knelt together outside the door, facing the door of the house. If the master didn't get up, would the servants still dare to move?
In this way, the master and his servants knelt together inside and outside the door. They knelt down until dinner time. Ma Gan'er, who was specially feeding Liu Cong's horses in Liu Cong's stable, also came over.
He came to see Liu Cong, because Liu Cong set a rule for Ma Gan'er. If Liu Cong didn't go over to check on the horses one day, Ma Gan'er had to report to Liu Cong before dinner.
Feeding status.
You know, Liu Cong cherishes his war horses too much, more than the young people of future generations cherish their precious cars.
So Ma Gan'er came over. When he came over, he saw Liang Zhu'er and Fatty Lai kneeling at the door. They didn't know what happened, and they didn't even dare to ask. They hurriedly knelt down behind Fatty Lai.
The master and the servants knelt down like this inside and outside the house. Whoever dared to fart loudly among the maids and servants in the house were all busy with their work without restraint. The entire courtyard and inside were completely silent.
At this time, Liu Biao had already returned to his dormitory and lay down. He only knew that Liu Cong only wanted to borrow his imperial seal, not to usurp it, so he felt calmer and less angry.
However, as mentioned before, protecting the governor's seal from being violated by anyone is the bottom line for Liu Biao as an official. Therefore, even if Liu Cong borrows it, he will never allow it. Not only cannot it be allowed, in his opinion, Liu Cong
It would be treasonous for Cong to have such an idea, so he firmly guarded his bottom line and would never let go.
In this way, when Liu Biao entered the bedroom, he brought in the governor's seal, as well as the seal, which was the appointment letter of governor awarded to him by the imperial court, and the sword given by the emperor to Shang Fang.
After Liu Biao entered the dormitory, he carefully stacked these three treasures together and held them carefully with both hands. When he came to the dormitory, he gently put them down and put them on the bed. Then he took out the key from his waist and put the key on the bedside.
Open the treasure box, put these three treasures in respectfully, then cover the box, lock the iron lock as big as a fist, take out the key and put it in your arms, then lie down on the bed with all your clothes on, and take a long breath.
In one breath, he cursed: "Cao Ni Ma, let your kid kneel there. Kneel down whenever you like. If you want to misappropriate my seal of governor, you can think about it after I die."
Liu Biao just lay on the bed like this, lying, lying, and kept lying, regardless of the family members kneeling outside the room.
However, when it was time for dinner, the room became dark. At this time, someone was anxious, and the most anxious one was Mrs. Cai.
At first, when Mrs. Cai heard Liu Cong make a decision to Liu Biao, she said: "Cong'er must remember his father's orders and manage Jingzhou well. He will be worthy of his ancestors and worthy of the people of Jingzhou. He will never let Cao's conspiracy succeed."
Mrs. Cai liked Liu Cong from the bottom of her heart, and she praised him with joy on her face: "This is the descendant of Emperor Guangwu. Well done."
However, when she heard that Liu Cong was going to take away Liu Biao's imperial seal and seal, Mrs. Cai was also surprised. Not only was she shocked, she was simply panicked. This kind of emotional reaction is something that people today cannot understand.
.In that era, when Mrs. Cai heard this sentence, it was like a queen hearing that the prince wanted to come and snatch the throne in front of the emperor.
So Mrs. Cai was stunned in panic. She was so dumbfounded that she was speechless and couldn't say a word.
Until Liu Biao held the sword given by the emperor and came to assassinate Liu Cong, Mrs. Cai did not feel that Liu Biao did anything wrong.
She knew that Liu Cong came here to usurp the enemy openly, and Mrs. Cai also knew how the emperor's court dealt with the usurper, so she didn't think Liu Biao did anything wrong. At that time, she just looked at Liu Biao with her mouth open, thinking slightly in her heart.
Now, if Liu Biao stabs Liu Cong to death with a sword, or chops him to death with a sword, and Liu Cong's head falls to the ground, and there is blood all over the ground, how can he clean up this?
At that time, Mrs. Cai stayed there like this until she heard Liu Cong say that her name was unfair and she could not convince the officials. She just wanted to use her father's governor's seal and had no intention of usurping it.
Finally, he breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Mrs. Cai lowered her head and thought for a long time, and decided to reconcile the conflict between Liu Cong and Liu Cousin. However, Mrs. Cai couldn't find the spoken words to reconcile, and she didn't know how to speak to reconcile, so she continued to sit there.
Thought.
When Liu Biao entered the bedroom with the governor's seal in both hands, Mrs. Cai saw Liu Cong still kneeling there, hunched over his neck and staring, showing no intention of being accommodating. Mrs. Cai decided to come over to comfort and persuade Liu Cong first.
.
But at this time, Mrs. Cai had a new understanding of Liu Cong: "Isn't this child such a bad temper before? He used to be very talkative and never stubborn. What happened today? As soon as he heard that he was asked to manage major events in Jingzhou, he became the
Why is Jingzhou Zhizhong so stubborn? Like a bullock that has just grown its teeth, he is not afraid of anyone, not even his father. He is a good boy, he dares to do anything, I like it.
With the heroic spirit of his ancestors, he can achieve great things. Well, I have to persuade him well."
So Mrs. Cai got up and poured a cup of hot tea. She held it in both hands and came to Liu Cong. She said gently: "Cong'er, you kid, you won't talk to your father if you have anything to say. You're already married.
Now that you've become an adult, aren't you afraid of your wife making fun of you if you tell her? Huh? Your father is so angry. Your father is still ill. If you get angry, won't you regret it? "
But Liu Cong didn't give her face. After hearing what Mrs. Cai said, he acted as if he hadn't heard anything. He still knelt straight and didn't even look at Mrs. Cai. He didn't even glance at the tea that Mrs. Cai was holding in her hands. He still felt in his heart.
Zai Hen said: "If I piss him off to death, it would be better than killing Cao Cao when he comes over."
When Mrs. Cai saw this, she felt pitiful and a little heartbroken, so she gently advised: "Here, don't be angry. Drink this cup of tea first to relieve your anger."
