Liu Fang received the imperial edict more than a month after Murong Zhuo left, and at this time, the barbarian delegation also arrived.
However, as soon as this group of envoys entered the border of Dayan Kingdom, Liu Fang sent someone to “invite” them to Liucheng. They stayed there and could not go anywhere or see anyone.
The person who led the delegation this time was Tuoba Gangzheng’s younger brother, and also the biological brother of Tuoba Khan – Tuoba Gangyou.
The leader of the delegation remained composed, skillfully keeping everyone in check within the delegation, ensuring they behaved calmly and stayed settled.
Liu Fang just smiled and said nothing and didn’t care.
It wasn’t until she received the imperial decree to proceed to the capital that she instructed someone to bring Tuoba Gangyou to the room where Tuoba Yaoheng and the other two were detained, allowing them to meet beforehand.
Later, she went there alone and met Tuoba Yaoheng.
This time, Tuoba Yaoheng appeared much calmer. Perhaps he had resigned himself to his fate, as he seemed more relaxed overall, meeting Liu Fang with a sense of tranquility.
Liu Fang smiled, sat opposite him, calmly poured a glass of water, drank it, and then said slowly: “I promised the third prince before that when I’m free, I’ll come over to answer your questions. Now, here I am. If the third prince has anything to ask, just ask. ”
Tuoba Yaoheng looked at her closely and saw Liu Fang’s composed and serene expression. She shook the teacup in her hand slightly and looked at the clear hot water in the cup, not caring about his gaze.
Tuoba Yaoheng suddenly felt that no matter what he did, the other party would not care.
He was a little angry, but he soon thought of Liu Fang’s previous actions and became discouraged.
After a while, he sighed and asked, “How did you find out about my relationship with Luo Zheng?”
Liu Fang smiled slightly, lazily reclining on the soft couch, and relaxedly leaning her body. She said leisurely: “It’s very simple, my father is a meticulous person.”
Tuoba Yaoheng raised his eyebrows and looked at her with confusion.
Liu Fang smiled and said, “My father is a person who likes to record every little detail, and he has always known Luo Zheng’s identity. Isn’t he just a mixed-race kid who escaped from you? There are plenty of them in Liucheng.”
I see!
Tuoba Yaoheng understood and nodded, “Even so, how do you know he is related to me?”
Liu Fang smiled, took a sip of hot water, and sighed contentedly, “It’s very simple. The power of the crowd is immense, especially the children. Most adults don’t pay much attention to the quarrel of children they encounter on the road. Because in Liucheng, this is too common and normal. ”
Seeing that he still didn’t understand, Liu Fang sat up straight with a smile, poured a glass of water, took a sip, and then continued: “Luo Zheng will naturally not tell others what he has encountered at your place. But if he wants to take action, he must be prepared. These preparations have always been seen by the children in the city, and I learned about it from them. So, why did he want to save you, to save all of you? ”
Liu Fang looked at Tuoba Yaoheng’s handsome face and said with a smile, “Could it be because he has feelings for you?”
Seeing Tuoba Yaoheng frowning after hearing this, Liu Fang smiled and continued:
“Feelings? That’s definitely out of the question. Since there aren’t any, why would he do it? It’s just to repay a debt. In your place, you have saved him before, right? ”
Tuoba Yaoheng nodded, “When I was young, I saved him.”
As for the process, that’s not important.
Liu Fang nodded and shrugged, “So, isn’t the rest of the matter very simple?”
Tuoba Yaoheng still didn’t understand, “But, how did you know it was me? What if it wasn’t for the reason you think?”
Liu Fang smiled and shook her head, “No, you don’t understand. As I said at the beginning, my father is a very meticulous person. He likes to record everything—every detail about people and events. As for Luo Zheng’s character, my father also recorded it very carefully. He has lived in Liucheng for more than ten years and is married and has children. My father kept records of everything about him except what happened when he was young. And after he entered the military camp and became a guard, every action of his has been reported to me. He hated barbarians. If that’s the case, why would someone like him save you? Didn’t he know my intention of capturing you? Clearly, he did. He is actually very intelligent. For so many years, he has been very low-key in Liucheng and the military camp. If I hadn’t read the records and documents left by my father,I might have overlooked him entirely. It can be seen that he acts very cautiously. Why would such a person take such a big risk to do something that completely goes against his usual behavior and even his own wishes? There is no other reason besides repaying the debt of gratitude. ”
In fact, the most important thing was that Luo Zheng gets along very harmoniously with his neighbors, often even allowing others to take advantage of him
Such a person who behaved in a low-key and cautious manner, but can tolerate his neighbors taking advantage from time to time without complaint, but became extremely brave on the battlefield and killed the enemy without mercy.
Will he suddenly save Tuoba Yaoheng and the others because of money or something else?
Liu Fang thought: Absolutely not!
Luo Zheng has been able to tolerate his neighbors taking advantage of him for so many years, which shows that he was not narrow-minded. It can even be said that what he values wais not material possessions.
So, what did he value?
Liu Fang discovered through the records left by Liu Da:
In fact, his neighbors tried their best to help him and assist him, offering him relief when he first arrived in Liucheng.
That’s why he has been like this all along, accepting whatever they bring to his door, taking odds and ends as they come..
At the same time, what was interesting was that this neighbor was not so imprudent. He only takes some not too expensive things that happen to be surplus in Luo Zheng’s home.
It can be seen from this that Luo Zheng was someone who truly remembers the kindness of others towards him, understands gratitude in his heart, and always keeps it in mind.
Of course, he didn’t give good treatment to those who really bullied him.
Although he would not go to the extent of beating someone to death, he would not allow others to bully him, his family, or even his neighbors.
How could such a person who clearly distinguishes between love and hate, and understands the importance of gratitude and reciprocation, help Tuoba Yaoheng just because of money or something else?
Without great kindness, even if he was favored by Tuoba Yaoheng, he would never do such a thing.
Otherwise, he would not have been able to protect Liucheng so desperately before.
He was now the commander of Team C, and he has earned his achievements through real, life-risking efforts..
Therefore, Liu Fang could definitely guess that he did this just to repay a huge debt of gratitude.
If it weren’t for this debt of gratitude, he would probably have killed Tuoba Yaoheng and the others the moment he saw them.
Tuoba Yaoheng was stunned, then sighed and said, “So, you left on purpose?”
Liu Fang smiled, shook her head again, took a sip of water, and said, “No. I really have something to do. So, don’t overthink it.”
Tuoba Yaoheng raised his eyebrows, “Going to ambush our army?”
Liu Fang shook her head again, smiled lightly, and said, “No, not that. Actually, our people have already taken control of the barbarian army outside the city.I’m just going to check on things, by the way, to find the person I wanted to find. ”
Tuoba Yaoheng looked at her, “Looking for someone?”
Liu Fang saw that he was confused, and decided to explain in one go, “Actually, I am looking for someone. As for who, you don’t need to know. Even if I tell you, you wouldn’t remember. The key point is that I have already arranged for people to control the army outside the city during the day. Going out at night just to drag back your supplies and incidentally look for someone. As for your plan, I have actually known it for a long time. Letting you go back is just to disrupt your efforts. As for killing your brother later, he asked for it. ”
Speaking of Tuoba Yaocheng, Tuoba Yaoheng’s face turned slightly cold. He stared into Liu Fang’s eyes and said, “So, the whole funeral procession was just a facade to hide your true purpose?”
Liu Fang nodded and said with a smile: “Didn’t I say that I would like to invite you to watch a show?”
Tuoba Yaoheng:……
It’s completely different from what they understand, okay? →_→
He then asked, “So, are those people real?”
Liu Fang raised her eyebrows. She thought for a moment and said, “What? Do you think the people attending the funeral that day were fake?”
Tuoba Yaoheng nodded and said: “Although you have blocked our five senses, I saw their faces didn’t show signs of weeping loudly. They all shed tears silently and did not cry out. And such an expression obviously does not fit the norm. ”
When Liu Fang heard this, her anger flared up instantly. She slammed the teacup down on the table. Causing the teacup to crack and the remaining hot water flowed out and spread on the low table.
She sneered and said coldly: “Third Prince,we should thank you for constantly attacking us over the years, making it impossible for us to live a peaceful life! Otherwise, the people of Liucheng would not have such unreasonable expressions! ”
Of course, normal people would be extremely sad when they lose loved ones, but people in Liucheng have to experience this kind of thing every year.
It can be said that their hearts have been numbed by the blood of their loved ones, to the point where they cannot cry freely and openly anymore.
Was this a good thing? Should this still be appreciated?
This was the most unbearable sorrow, something that cannot be lightly dismissed or erased!
This was the most painful pain for them!
Because they were in so much pain that they no longer have the ability to cry loudly!
As long as Liu Fang thought about the blood, tears and pain shed by the people of Liucheng over the years, generation after generation, she couldn’t wait to kill all these bastards!
