♂?,,
Chen Dao's performance was quite unexpected for Liu Feng, it seems that this person has judged from his own words just now that he had the intention of recruiting him to join his army and take him to conquer Xiangdong and two other counties in the south.
If he were just an ordinary low-ranking officer, how could he have such leadership skills? The wounded soldier in front of him must not be an ordinary person.
"It seems I didn't misjudge this person after all."
Seeing Chen's generous offer to go to war, Liu Feng patted his shoulder and smiled with relief: "It's great to have such aspirations, so come to my camp tomorrow to report."
"Thank you, young master, for your favor."
Chen was overjoyed and excited, and in his excitement, he forgot about the wound on his back. He suddenly knelt down with a loud cry, but this sudden movement pulled at the wound, causing him to let out a loud shout of pain.
Liu Feng hastily helped him down: "From now on, we are our own people, and there is no need to be so excited and keep bowing in front of me. I see that the wound on your back has reopened, let's hurry up and get someone to re-bandage it."
Liu Feng comforted him a few more times, then got up and left. The medical camp was not far from here, Liu Feng took the opportunity to walk over himself and asked someone to send a doctor to treat Chen Dao's injury.
At that moment, Liu Feng's mood was extremely good, and he was about to return to the camp to drink a cup of wine to celebrate when he suddenly thought of someone else.
Due to the shortage of young and strong laborers, under Liu Bei's call, many women joined the medical rescue team. In order to set an example, some officials' wives also participated, and together with other women, they formed a medical camp of over 100 people.
The person Liu Feng thought of was Huang Yue Mei.
To be honest, Huang Yue Mei's appearance is decent and pleasing to the eye, but it's not the kind of beauty that would make someone unforgettable. The reason why Liu Feng had considered making her his wife was mainly because he valued her identity as a daughter of the Huang family.
Now, Liu Feng's thinking has undergone a drastic change. The various things that had happened earlier had long since dispersed with the wind, but now that he was already in the medical camp, he suddenly thought of bidding farewell to Huang Yue Mei. After all, this woman had changed his medicine and taken care of him for several days back then, so they did have some affinity. It wouldn't be superfluous to bid her a gentle farewell.
Thinking of this, Liu Feng asked clearly about Huang Yuemei's tent and searched for it all the way.
It was just after noon, and most people in the camp had gone to rest. Along the way, he didn't meet many people, and Liu Feng had circled around for half a day before finding Huang Yue Mei's residence. Just as he was about to enter, a voice came from inside the tent that made him stop in his tracks.
"Little sister, pack your luggage and move to my place tomorrow morning." It was Huang Yueying's voice.
"How can you suddenly ask me to move back? Didn't my brother-in-law ask me to join the medical team earlier, saying I was supposed to be some kind of role model?" This voice Liu Feng was very familiar with, it came from Huang Yue Mei, and judging by her tone, she seemed to be filled with doubt.
That Huang Yueying and her father, Huang Chengyan, always gave people a gloomy and mysterious feeling. Liu Feng didn't want to have contact with them, so he temporarily chose not to enter, hiding outside the tent waiting for her to leave before going in to see Huang Yuemei.
He quietly drew out the dagger he carried with him, and lightly cut open a slit in the tent, gazing intently through the narrow opening.
Huang Yueying helped her sister pack while explaining, "Sister-in-law said that the Red Cliff will be over soon, and we'll probably have to leave Xia Kou and move elsewhere. It's better to come back and live here to avoid rushing when leaving."
Huang Yue Mei immediately helped her sister clean up, when suddenly Liu Mei's eyebrow moved, as if she had thought of something: "Sister, I heard that the young master has also returned to Xia Kou, should I go visit him?"
Liu Feng detected a few unusual tones in her words.
Huang Yueying stopped what she was doing and a hint of tension appeared on her face: "Little sister, have you met the young master again?"
"No, I haven't seen him since he went to Lu Shan last time," Huang Yue Mei said with a smile of complaint. "Sister, you still haven't answered me, how come you're asking me instead?"
Huang Yueying stood up, pulled down the curtain, and then leaned in close to her sister, lowering her voice: "It's best not to see him again, anyway, don't have any more dealings with him in the future, just keep a respectful distance from him."
Although Huang Yueying lowered her voice, she never thought that the "Big Master" in their mouths was eavesdropping at a distance of ten feet. Liu Feng, who had keen ears and eyes, heard Huang Yueying's words clearly, and his mouth corner revealed a cold smile.
Huang Yue Mei was taken aback, and said in a daze: "I don't understand what you mean, sister. Didn't you instruct me to deliberately get close to the prince earlier? Why have you suddenly changed your mind now?"
"Huang Yueying let out a soft sigh: 'Originally, we had thought to marry off our daughter to the eldest young master, which would have added another layer of familial ties between our Huang family and the Zhuge family with our lord. This would have been beneficial for both securing our Huang family's interests in Jingzhou and solidifying my sister's husband's position. However, times have changed, and plans must change accordingly.'"
Huang Yue's eyebrows furrowed as if she had realized something, and she said with a frown: "Sister, you mentioned that the situation has changed. Is it because of Second Master Ah Dou?"
"Hehe, my sister is indeed a daughter of the Huang family, understanding at once." Huang Yueying gently stroked her sister's hand, with an approving smile on her face. "Actually, Master Adou is still young, whether he can grow up to be honest and kind is still unknown, he is just one of the reasons. The main reason is because of what happened during the military meeting a few days ago."
Huang Yueying then told her sister about the affair of Liu Feng harming his mother, and sighed: "Although it seems that the young master is innocent, it has also caused discord between the young master and the lord, as well as with his uncle. With this layer of shadow, even if there was no Ah Dou, the young master will likely have no future. Therefore, after careful consideration, we decided to cut ties with the young master, hoping that you can understand."
Huang Yue's eyes widened in sudden understanding, and a hint of regret flashed across her radiant face. Yet she replied without hesitation, "Sister, rest assured, I know what to do."
Huang Yueying stroked her face and said, "You're really sensible. Alright, there's still something to attend to at my place, pack up your things properly, I'll send someone to pick you up early tomorrow morning."
Huang Yueying added a few more words, then left the tent, but was completely unaware that in a certain corner behind her back, a pair of knife-like eyes were coldly staring at her.
What Liu Feng inadvertently heard was the truth, but it didn't make him angry, nor did he feel even a little surprised. Perhaps he should have expected it to be so.
"Miss Huang, long time no see, how are you?" Liu Feng calmly greeted Huang Yue Mei who was seeing off her sister from the other side.
At this moment, the last bit of good feeling he had for the woman of the Huang family was gone. His appearance was just to see how much hypocrisy that face could hold.
Huang Yue Mei was startled, and when she turned her head sharply, she saw Liu Feng. A unnatural expression flashed across her face for a moment, but soon became calm as water. She graciously curtsied: "So it's the young master, I wonder what brings the young master to this place?"
Liu Feng looked straight into her eyes and said coldly, "I just happened to be passing by and came to see you, Miss."
Huang Yue Mei met his gaze without any discomfort, smiling and saying: "Thank you for your concern, young master, but I have something urgent to attend to, so I'm afraid I won't be able to entertain you. Please excuse me."
She said and was about to leave first, it's clear that she was intentionally avoiding Liu Feng.
Staring at that innocent face, Liu Feng sneered: "It doesn't matter, we'll have another chance to meet again. Who knows, maybe next time I'll give the young lady a big surprise."
