At this time, Liu Bei finally understood that this was basically a trap set by Liu Xin, and Liu Xin still wanted to take his life. In fact, all of this was forced by Liu Bei. It has always been the king's responsibility for ministers to be overly involved in the matter of establishing a heir apparent.
Big taboo. Although Liu Xin is not an emperor yet, Liu Bei is not a minister in the true sense. Since Liu Bei has been tossing over this matter again and again, Liu Xin will certainly not let him go.
However, after all, Liu Bei had the credit for saving Liu Bang, and he did not explicitly say that he wanted Liu Xin to make Liu Bang his son, but he only used force behind his back. Liu Xin really had no suitable reason to execute him.
Liu Xin racked her brains and finally came up with such an insidious trick. This trick was too insidious, so of course she couldn't tell Ma Yun, and for gentlemen like Ju Shou and Tian Feng, they would not be willing to do such a dirty trick.
Only a barbarian man like Feng Lie would not have so many worries, so Liu Xin gave this task to Feng Lie.
Liu Bei is lustful, and Liu Xin knows this very well. Historically, Liu Bei was immersed in Sun Shangxiang's gentle country and couldn't extricate himself. In the era Liu Xin traveled through, Liu Bei did not hesitate to transfer Guan Yu far away for Du Xiuniang. Therefore, let him
Liu Bei indulged in drinking and sex instead of doing his job, so the best way was to give him a stunning beauty.
But Liu Xin couldn't find such a peerless beauty to give to Liu Bei. Because Liu Bei was very forbearing, he could bear not to touch a rare beauty like Ganmei. To seduce Liu Bei, the beauty must be as beautiful as Du Xiuniang or Diao Chan.
This level is enough. However, Liu Xin believed that Sun Shangxiang's beauty should not be as good as Diao Chan and others. The reason why Liu Bei was fascinated by her was probably more because she had a powerful female escort around her.
In order to save his life, Liu Bei had to sit side by side with Sun Shangxiang and sit with their legs crossed, trying his best to pretend to be affectionate.
Therefore, Liu Xin thought of using force. Liu Xin deliberately left Liu Bei only ten days, so that the suspicious Liu Bei always felt that Liu Xin sent him to Rinan to seek an opportunity to harm him. However, every time Liu Bei
When he is about to despair, things will always turn around. Slowly, Liu Bei believed that Liu Xin did not want his life. Once Liu Bei's mind relaxed, he would not be so "negative" towards those women.
Resisted.
The choice of these women is also extremely critical. If it is a delicate Han daughter, it is impossible to pick the flower of Liu Bei. Only these powerful foreign women can control Liu Bei well. This
These women are all as old as wolves and have been in the open for a long time. After doing this once, they are like water that has opened a floodgate and cannot be stopped even if they want to. When tempted again, they will naturally spare no effort.
Ten days later, Liu Xin also received a report about Liu Bei's activities in Xiangyang. For twenty days in Xijuan, Liu Bei stayed at home just like when he was in Xiangyang. In fact, it was not that Liu Bei wanted to stay at home.
But he couldn't walk at all. His body was getting thinner and thinner, and his legs were getting heavier and heavier.
In the first few days, Liu Bei still had a chance to fight back and maintain the dignity of a man. Later, he could only remain in the position of a woman servile and a man servile. It was difficult for him to even turn over. But the four women seemed to be feeding him.
The bottomless pit of not being full, taking turns to fight every day, even when Liu Bei fell asleep.
After another ten days, Liu Bei finally couldn't hold on any longer and began to cough violently. After coughing, he actually began to vomit blood. However, the four women still did not let him go and continued to demand more and more until Liu Bei died.
Liu Bei, a high-ranking official of the fourth rank, died suddenly in Rinan County. This was a huge event, which naturally caused a flurry of government officials at the county and county levels. Feng Lie also rushed over from Jiaozhi with his guards. Experienced officials at the county and county levels also rushed over.
The police and police officers also began to work together to conduct on-site inspections.
Because Liu Bei's temporary residence was the prefect's mansion in Ninan County, located in the center of Xijuan City. When he heard that such a big event had happened, many people came from all directions to watch the excitement. Fortunately, there were soldiers under Feng Lie to maintain order.
Although there were many people at the scene, it was not chaotic.
The police officers inspected the doors and windows of the small courtyard where Liu Bei lived and found that everything was intact. First of all, they ruled out the possibility of outsiders sneaking in to cause harm. The policemen also picked up silver needles and pricked Liu Bei's body a few times. The body was still silvery.
Shining, proving that there was no sign of poisoning. The most bizarre thing is that Liu Bei's body was naked and haggard. Except for a large pool of stains on his lower body, there were no wounds.
At this time, the county magistrate began to question the four women. The four women had already agreed on the same topic. Facing the several big men sitting in the hall, the two groups of majestic government officials, and the countless people watching the excitement outside the door,
They didn't have the slightest scruple, and always insisted that after Liu Bei came to Xijuan, he had been pestering them all day long to do that kind of thing, which made their legs sore and weak, and they are still shaking when they walk.
The two local officials, the Governor of Ninan and the Magistrate of Nishijuan County, saw that these four women were not very attractive. After listening to their confessions, they still had many doubts, but they heard Feng Lie say with a straight face: "Here comes!
Close the door and drive out all the people watching the excitement outside!"
The prefect ** hurriedly said: "I am reporting to the general. My Lord has a strict order. Unless extreme selfishness is involved, the people must be allowed to observe the case."
Feng Lie waved his hand and said: "This case not only involves private affairs, but also concerns the man's face. How can we let this matter spread? Close the door!"
** Helpless, he quickly waved his hand and waited for the government officials to close the door, then he raised his hands and said, "Has the general seen the cause of Mr. Liu's death?"
Feng Lie said without hesitation: "This is not simple. Liu Bei clearly indulged in excessive sexual desire and exhausted himself to death. His official rank is still higher than yours. Do you think it would be detrimental to the man if this kind of thing spread?
Face?"
** frowned and said: "From the inspection situation, it is consistent with the general's inference, but I think there may be something hidden here."
Feng Lie said displeasedly: "What's the secret?"
** thought that Feng Lie was dissatisfied with his suspicion of his inference, so he hurriedly raised his hand and said: "Actually, it's nothing, but Xiaguan's hometown is in Pingyuan County, Qingzhou. Mr. Liu once served as a county magistrate in Pingyuan, and he was very helpful to the people.
Qiu has no fault, has a good reputation, and does not seem to be a womanizer. Besides, these women are too..."
Feng Lie waved his hand and said: "You only know one, but not the other. Liu Bei was also a prince in the past, and he has never seen such a beautiful woman. Later, he defeated Xuzhou and surrendered first Yuan Shu and then his lord.
He is really a villain, so naturally he is not welcomed by the lord and has never been entrusted with important responsibilities. Recently, the lord wants to promote our Han culture in the three counties of Jiaozhi, Jiuzhen and Rinan, so he sent Liu Bei here..."
** suddenly realized: "Oh, I understand, Mr. Liu must have failed to appreciate his talent."
Feng Lie slapped his thigh and said, "That's right! What you said is right to the point. Mr. Liu has no talent. After arriving in Xijuan, he inevitably gave up on himself, and then he indulged in sex. You see, he won't even let go of such a thing."
** thought for a moment and said: "I understand, I will announce Liu Bei's cause of death according to the general's inference, so as to avoid panic among the people in the city."
Ever since the Han army occupied Jiaozhou, the situation in Jiaozhou has been calm. There has been no fatal case for a long time, let alone a high-ranking official of the fourth rank. ** is a competent local official. His first thought is to stabilize people's hearts.
But Feng Lie kept saying: "That's not right! How can the Han Dynasty have any face in this way? In my opinion, let's just announce to the public that he died from acclimatization."
Originally, in **'s eyes, Feng Lie was just a general and a barbarian, so he was just a rough guy. Unexpectedly, Feng Lie thought so carefully, ** couldn't help but look at him with admiration, nodded repeatedly and said: "The general is right.
.But I would like to ask the general to tell you how to deal with these women!"
When the women heard that he was talking about them, they couldn't help but open their eyes wide and look at Feng Lie eagerly.
Feng Lie said calmly: "Master Liu died in acclimatization, which can be considered as sacrificing his life for the country. These women are his wives and concubines, so the country will naturally provide generous pensions. Let's do this. Each of them will be given a hundred fertile fields.
Mother, five hundred taels of silver and twenty bolts of silk, let them enjoy the rest of their lives in peace."
** suddenly felt relieved. He was still worried just now. Since Liu Bei's death involved the big man's face, would Feng Lie kill these women? If Feng Lie really wanted to do this, he would
There is no way to stop it, but as a local magistrate of Nichinan, it is a very sad thing that he cannot protect his people.
Now, with Feng Lie's arrangement, not only did ** no longer have to worry about the safety of those women, but Liu Bei, whom he had always respected, could also preserve his reputation. ** couldn't help but admire Feng Lie even more, and hurriedly raised his hand and said: "
Please rest assured, General, I will make arrangements right away."
However, Feng Lie waved his hand and said: "Rinan is poor. How much surplus money the county government can have? The money should be advanced by the army first, and we will make a decision after Feng Mou reports to the lord."
Although the people outside the door were dispersed and could not hear the discussion in the lobby, Liu Bei's death was so bizarre that the discussion about this matter in teahouses and restaurants became more and more intense. Several versions appeared one after another. Among them, the most consistent
The logical version is Feng Lie's inference, which satisfies the people's curiosity the most. Moreover, this inference was quietly confirmed by the county officials, so it spread quickly. Of course, the most important thing is that for
Feng Lie, who really held the power in Jiaozhou, did not make great efforts to control such rumors, and the government that really wanted to control did not have much manpower and prestige, so this "rumor" spread further and further.
