Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 571 Liu Feng’s Gift

Look!
Liu Feng seemed a little immature after all.

This made the atmosphere so tense that something unexpected happened!

Xing Daorong saw that this was not going to work, so he took the initiative to bow and said, "Mr. Liu, it's been many years since we last met. Are you okay?"

Liu Feng's expression froze for a moment when he heard this, then he forced a smile and said, "General Xing is here, please take a seat. In these years in Chengdu, I have heard that the general has made many extraordinary achievements, and I admire him very much. So today, when I heard that the general was coming here, I also asked to see the general despite the lateness of the night."

As he spoke, Liu Feng clapped his hands.

Soon, a man was seen carrying a famous painting wrapped in brocade into the room.

Liu Feng smiled and said to Xing Daorong: "General Xing, I recently got an ancient painting. I heard that you are fond of painting, so I would like to invite you to appreciate it together."

Xing Daorong bowed his hands and said humbly: "Your Excellency's kindness, I am ashamed to accept it. I only know a little bit, how dare I say that I appreciate it?"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

"It seems that Liu Feng has thoroughly investigated his movements since he arrived here!"

"I just received a painting, and this guy tried to please me and got me a painting too."

"It's just... the more attentive you are, the more problems are likely to arise!"

While thinking this in his heart, Xing Daorong saw Liu Feng waving his hand and said with a smile: "General, why should you be so modest? This painting is from a famous artist. The landscape in the painting is majestic and the characters are lifelike, which just fits the heroic spirit of the general."

After saying this, he personally untied the brocade and slowly unfolded the scroll.

In the painting, there are towering mountains and rushing rivers. A general stands on the top of a mountain, holding a spear with a sharp gaze, as if he is looking down on the world.

All else aside, this is indeed a great painting!
Seeing this, Xing Daorong couldn't help but admire it and said, "It's really a good painting! The general in the painting has extraordinary spirit and makes people admire him."

Liu Feng smiled slightly, his eyes deep, and said slowly: "This painting is called "Heroes of Mountains and Rivers". The general in the painting is just like General Xing, with great ambitions and the most courageous among the three armies."

"When I saw this painting today, I felt that it was destined to be with the general. I might as well give it to the general as a gift to show my respect for the title."

Upon hearing this, Xing Daorong hastily declined, saying, "My Lord, this is a generous gift, and I feel ashamed to accept it. This painting is precious, how dare I take away someone's favorite?"

Liu Feng insisted: "General, there is no need to refuse. This painting can only show its value in your hands. Besides..."

Liu Feng paused for a moment and said meaningfully, "General and I both care about the world. This painting can inspire us to work together for a great cause."

! !
Liu Feng was finally getting anxious!

This "conspiracy for a great cause" completely exposes his own thoughts!

With just this sentence, Xing Daorong could go straight back to Chang'an to report.

But right now...Xing Daorong is not in a hurry.

He wanted to see how "crazy" Liu Feng was.

Seeing Liu Feng's sincere words and deep meaning in his eyes, he pondered for a moment and finally said, "In this case, I will respectfully obey your order. Thank you for your generous gift, I will treasure this painting."

When these words came out, Liu Feng's heart started beating wildly.

He didn't know whether Xing Daorong understood the meaning of his words.

Logically speaking, with Xing Daorong being so capable, he should be able to understand the other meanings in his words clearly.

But seeing that he accepted the painting without any hesitation, I felt that it was not the case.

I hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to go further.

Xing Daorong, on the other hand, took the painting and became more thoughtful. Seeing Liu Feng's tangled look, he couldn't help but snort in his heart.

To be honest, before traveling through time, he had thought that if Liu Feng had not died, and Liu Feng took control of Shu Han instead of Liu Chan, would the fate of Shu Han be better?

Now it seems that Liu Feng's temperament is far inferior to Liu Chan's.

If this is true...I'm afraid it will only be worse.

Thinking of this, Xing Daorong sat down steadily, his eyes swept across the scattered documents on the table, and asked casually: "Young Master, you are working hard in the mansion."

Upon hearing this, Liu Feng hurriedly took two steps to the table.

He quickly closed the document, his fingers unconsciously rubbing the corner of the case, his eyes slightly evasive, and he laughed dryly, "It's just that I have nothing to do, so I read some military books."

Xing Daorong understood something when he saw this, but he remained calm and said calmly: "Oh... I heard that now the situation is about to be determined, the Northern Wei wants to make a final all-out counterattack."

"There have been rumors in Chang'an recently that the Northern Wei Dynasty intends to contact us. Is there any news about this in Chengdu?"

Xing Daorong is giving me a chance!
As long as Liu Feng does as he says and hands over the letter, the matter will be over.

Liu Feng's life would naturally have a completely different outcome.

pity…

Liu Feng failed to seize the opportunity.

Hearing this, his heart trembled, a trace of cold sweat oozed from his forehead, and he forced a smile and said, "Rumors in the army are not to be believed. General, don't worry too much."

After saying this, Liu Feng tapped the table unconsciously with his fingers, appearing to be in a state of uneasiness.

Xing Daorong sighed in his heart, but smiled slightly. He stood up and bowed, saying, "In this case, I will not disturb you any more. If you need anything, just let me know."

After that, he turned around and left.

Seeing his back disappear outside the tent, Liu Feng heaved a sigh of relief, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and thought to himself: "Today's test has achieved some results. It seems that this Northern Wei man is really desperate and is looking for his last chance."

"I guess he has a lot of contacts, that's why there are rumors in Chang'an."

"Then I can wait and see how the situation changes..."

Liu Feng had a good plan in mind, but he could never have imagined that the Northern Wei Dynasty had never contacted anyone else except him!
He could not have imagined that he had been judged as having ulterior motives because he did not tell the truth to Xing Daorong today.

If this letter cannot be submitted today, it will never be submitted again!
...

However, when Xing Daorong walked out of Liu Feng's mansion, he still felt heavy in his heart.

There is no doubt that Liu Feng's actions have sentenced him to death.

There is no doubt that Liu Feng will be captured, but the current problem... is how to do it.

Although Liu Bei trusted me very much and gave me the authority to take charge, if you really let Liu Feng capture the person directly... without the order from His Majesty, I am afraid that it will be brought up and used against me someday in the future.

It’s hard to say for sure, after all, Liu Feng is also Liu Bei’s son.

After much thought, it is better to capture them together and take them to Chang'an, rather than execute them on the spot...

So the next day, Xing Daorong selected a hundred elite soldiers to come to Liu Feng's mansion, intending to take Liu Feng back to Chang'an.

Unexpectedly, Liu Feng did not sleep a wink the whole night.

I thought a lot and finally realized that this seemed to be a trap!
When he saw Xing Daorong, he cried out with a bitter look on his face: "Father... why did you plot to murder me? Is there such a thing in the world?"
