When this guy heard this, he did not answer directly. He looked at Liu Bei a few times before saying proudly,"Who are you? How did you know about me?"
Liu Bei saw that this guy admitted that he was Tian Feng. He was puzzled, but at the same time, he felt relieved.
Who was Tian Feng? Tian Feng was one of the top strategists during the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Han Dynasty. He helped Yuan Shao dominate the north.
What Liu Bei didn't understand was that he was Tian Feng, how could he be beaten up by a group of local ruffians?
Liu Bei was relieved. This was Tian Feng. Looking at his behavior, it was normal for him to be beaten up by a group of people.
No wonder Xun Yu had once commented that this guy was stubborn and rebellious. To put it bluntly, wasn't it because his character was flawed and his EQ wasn't high?
One's character determined one's words and actions, and one's character determined one's fate. Poor Tian Feng, he was only talented and learned, but in the end, he was imprisoned and killed by his master Yuan Shao.
"I am Liu Bei, Liu Xuande from Zhuo County." Liu Bei came back to his senses and bowed to Tian Feng.""Tian Yuanhao, how could I not know? My master once said that Julu Tian Feng was intelligent, knowledgeable, upright, and polite.”
At that time, his closest relative died, Tian Feng for him to mourn, but the mourning period has passed, Tian Feng still smiled without showing his teeth, neighbors praised him.
Liu Bei also knew that Tian Feng was a stubborn donkey with real talent. He would follow his wishes, spoil him, let him be, and praise him.
As expected, even though Tian Feng did not have any impression of Liu Bei, he changed his stubborn attitude and returned the bow.""May I know who your teacher is?"
"Mister Zigan." Liu Bei replied concisely. Liu Bei was certain that Lu Zhi might not know Tian Feng, but Tian Feng definitely knew Lu Zhi.
It was impossible for Liu Bei to mention the Tian Feng that he knew in the future and knew of Tian Feng's fate. He could only bring up the world-famous teacher Lu Zhi. It really worked.
"Mister Zigan, Brother Xuande, Mister Zigan mentioned me before!?”Tian Feng immediately became arrogant, and even his tone became intimate. Unfortunately, with this face that even his own mother could not recognize, he looked a little funny.
"Naturally." "Brother Yuan Hao, what was that?" Liu Bei asked curiously.”
Tian Feng was originally a little excited because the great scholar Lu Zhi knew about him. However, when Liu Bei asked him what had happened just now, Tian Feng was obviously a little listless, but he also explained the cause and effect.
Tian Feng was intelligent and knowledgeable since he was young. He had the reputation of filial piety and was very famous in Jizhou. Therefore, he was recruited by the Grand Marshal's Office and recommended as a talented person.
Later on, Tian Feng was chosen as an imperial censor, and it could be said that he rose to the top. However, the eunuchs were in power and were jealous of talents. Tian Feng was upright and inflexible, strong and not vassal, so Tian Feng was very unhappy as an imperial censor.
What if he was unhappy? Tian Feng was very extreme. He actually hung up his seal and resigned.
Tian Feng returned to Julu Prefecture from Luoyang in disappointment. As soon as he entered the prefecture, he was blocked in the alley by Jie and his group of people.
Jie's background wasn't small. Not only was he the second son of Julu Prefecture's Zhang family, he was also the disciple of the famous big boss, Zhang Jiao.
The Zhang family had more influence than the Tian family, and Zhang Jiao was a giant. As a result, Jie was extremely arrogant in Julu County. He bullied men and women, and fighting was a daily occurrence.
In the past, Jie and Tian Feng didn't get along, and they only talked. Now that Tian Feng had resigned and was in a daze, Jie didn't feel any pressure bullying him.
As a result, Jie, who was well-informed, led a group of lackeys to block Tian Feng the moment he entered Julu County City.
In the beginning, Jie only verbally insulted Tian Feng. Tian Feng had the mentality of making peace with him and was determined not to argue with Jie.
However, Jie did not agree. Tian Feng's reputation and talent were nothing in Jie's eyes. After a round of mockery, Jie gave the order to beat up Tian Feng.
Poor Tian Feng, a future top strategist, was beaten up until his clothes were torn and his face was swollen. He almost started to doubt his life.
Jie was indeed arrogant and despotic. He had the right to be arrogant. No one cared about him fighting in broad daylight and even fighting Tian Feng, who was famous in Julu Prefecture and even Jizhou.
From this point of view, it could explain two problems. First, the aristocratic families not only controlled the court, but also controlled the local areas even more. Secondly, the Path of Peace had already established itself in Julu Prefecture.
In fact, Tian Feng was already starting to doubt his life after being beaten by Jie. Fortunately, Liu Bei and Dian Wei appeared in time. Otherwise, who knew if Tian Feng would have been beaten to death.
It was impossible to kill him.
Whether it was the Tian Family of Julu County or Tian Feng himself, they were no different from an amulet. In this day and age, it was not a joke to not punish a doctor, let alone a private punishment.
Since Jie was beating up Tian Feng in public, he did not have the intention to kill him. It was more of a warning.
Liu Bei wouldn't believe that Jie didn't have someone to back him up if he dared to beat up Tian Feng. However, since Tian Feng did not say anything, Liu Bei was too lazy to ask and did not want to interfere.
Was Liu Bei greedy for Tian Feng? That was for sure.
However, just as Liu Bei had said, Tian Feng should reflect on himself. Tian Feng was a great talent. It was not wrong for him to become a top strategist, but it was also a fact that his personality was flawed and his EQ was not high.
In other words, the current Tian Feng was not suitable to be roped in. Or rather, it was not what Liu Bei wanted. Liu Bei wanted loyal and like-minded comrades and brothers, such as Dian Wei and Zhao Yun.
Moreover, the sky had not changed! It was still several years before the Yellow Turban Rebellion! Liu Bei was not in a hurry.
"I see. I wonder what Brother Yuan Hao plans to do next?”After listening to Tian Feng's explanation, Liu Bei did not delve further into this matter.
"What else can I do?" Tian Feng's heart was as clear as a mirror. He said a little dejectedly,"If you can't afford to offend me, just hide. Just now, Brother Xuande said something good. I really should reflect on myself more often, so I decided to go home and study behind closed doors.”
Liu Bei did not know how Tian Feng lived during this period of despondency. However, it was a good thing for Tian Feng to study behind closed doors.
At least that was what Liu Bei thought. Reading can cultivate one's mind and temper, reading can make one wise, reading can change one's fate and rewrite one's life.
"It's good! In books, there are beauties like jade, and in books, there are houses of gold.”Liu Bei nodded.
"Brother Xuande, your words are always shocking. I wonder if you can come to my house for a few days and discuss knowledge with me.”Tian Feng's eyes lit up as he suddenly extended a sincere invitation to Liu Bei.
"Is it appropriate?"
"It's suitable!"
"That's not good, right?"
"Good!"
"Then I'll do as you say!"
"Brother Xuande, please!"
"Brother Yuan Hao, please!"
Just like that, Liu Bei and Dian went to Tian Feng's house.
……
" No, he didn't chase after us, did he?!" Jie ran for a long distance before he stopped and panted as he asked his lackeys who were also in a sorry state.
Dian Wei was too scary just now. Jie didn't even see clearly when his subordinates flew into the sky. Jie couldn't imagine what he would do if the other party caught up to him.
"No!" "Boss, Boss, didn't you tell him not to leave? Should we call for help?" One of the lackeys asked in confusion.”
"Pa!" Jie slapped the lackey and said,"Are you stupid? You don't lose the formation, do you understand? Who could beat that guy?”
“……。”The lackey covered his face and felt wronged. Tears rolled down his face.
"Don't cry!" Jie was so angry that he was trembling. He glared at his lackey and said through gritted teeth,"Hmph, Tian Feng, I swear I won't be a human if I don't take revenge.”
Jie didn't dare to hold a grudge against Dian Wei, but he hated Tian Feng. Jie thought that if it wasn't for Tian Feng, Dian Wei wouldn't have stood up.
No one else had such logic.
"Boss, Boss, the founder is back from Youzhou Province!”
Just as Jie was full of resentment towards Tian Feng and was helpless against Dian Wei, one of his subordinates brought good news.
Jie instantly felt like it was dawn.
