Three Kingdoms: Liu Bei seeks the master and seeks to conquer the world

Chapter 196 Youzhou is shocked, Liu Bei faces a choice

If heaven wants to destroy people, it must first make people crazy.

Although Yuan Shao formed an alliance with Gongsun Zan, the reason for the alliance is that both Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan are now snipe and clam in the eyes of fishermen.

One mountain cannot tolerate two tigers.

After solving the problem of the fisherman, the snipe and clam are still fighting for life and death.

It is beneficial to form an alliance, and it is also beneficial to compete.

Yuan Shao was quite satisfied with Xu You's proposal.

Chuan Guo Yuxi is a hot item!
After Yuan Shu got the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, he didn't dare to say anything.

After Liu Bei obtained the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, he also kept it secret.

If it wasn't for Yuan Shu's rumors, Yuan Shao would still not know that Dong Zhuo in Chang'an didn't pass on the imperial jade seal.

If it weren't for Gongsun Zan, Yuan Shao wouldn't know that the Chuanguo Yuxi is now in Liu Yu's hands.

Thinking of this, Yuan Shao couldn't help feeling a little grateful to Gongsun Zan.

If Gongsun Zan hadn't told Yuan Shao the location of Chuanguo Yuxi, Yuan Shao would have planned to fight Gongsun Zan in Jizhou to the death!

Giving up the Hejian Kingdom's strategy at the beginning was to disperse Gongsun Zan's troops so that they could be defeated one by one.

And the peace negotiation was also to paralyze Gongsun Zan.

"I belong to the family of the Yuan family, the fourth generation and the third lord, so how can I not compare to Gongsun Zan, a border bastard?"

Yuan Shao was secretly proud.

After discussing the specific plan with all the counselors, Yuan Shao made an appointment with Gongsun Zan again.

In order to avoid Gongsun Zan's suspicion, Yuan Shao pretended to have an argument with Gongsun Zan, and his face was red.

In the end, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan reached a covenant of "Bingzhou belongs to Yuan Shao, and Gongsun Zan is in charge of passing on the jade seal of the country."

After reaching the covenant, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan began a "fierce" battle!

First, Gongsun Zan defeated Yuan Shao at Julu, and then Yuan Shao captured Gongsun Fan of Hejian Kingdom alive.

Infuriated, Gongsun Zan recruited all the county soldiers from Changshan Kingdom and Zhongshan Kingdom, as well as more than 20 civilian husbands, claiming to have an army of [-] soldiers, to fight Yuan Shao at Julu.

A battle is a decisive battle, and the first battle determines life and death.

This crazy move made Liu Yu of Zhuojun unable to sit still any longer.

Liu Yu refused to listen to Tian Feng's advice, and insisted on going to Julu himself to persuade the war.

In fact, Liu Yu even rejected Liu Bei's proposal to mediate.

In Liu Yu's words, "This is a family matter in Youzhou. How can there be any reason for Qingzhou Mu to mediate?"

Tian Feng had no choice but to let Zhao Yun lead the army to follow, and must ensure Liu Yu's safety.

But after Liu Yu left, Tian Feng sent people to Qingzhou to deliver the letter.

Liu Bei was stunned when he learned that Gongsun Zan had launched a military campaign in Changshan Kingdom and recruited more than [-] civilian husbands.

But soon, Liu Bei's eyes became angry: "How can Brother Bogui be so aggressive in Changshan Kingdom?"

"In this way, there must be a large number of disaster victims in Changshan Kingdom. I am the one who harmed the people of Changshan Kingdom!"

Letting Gongsun Zan go to Changshan Kingdom is the way of survival prepared by Liu Bei for Gongsun Zan.

Liu Bei's original intention was to hope that Gongsun Zan could go to Bingzhou to gain a foothold.

Even, Liu Bei urged Jushou to assist Gongsun Zan to prevent Gongsun Zan from being tricked by Yuan Shao.

However, Liu Bei underestimated Gongsun Zan's ambition, and did not expect that Gongsun Zan would abandon Ju Shou!
"Quickly summon Xianmou to return to Linzi City!"

Liu Bei looked angry and helpless.

Gongsun Zan acted like this, and Liu Bei no longer knew how to mediate.

Stop Gongsun Zan, and the friendship between Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan for many years will end.

If you don't stop Gongsun Zan, how many people will die in Changshan!

One side is brotherhood, and the other side is the common people.

It's hard for Liu Bei to choose!

However, the messengers going south could not find Zheng Ping's whereabouts.

After seeing Mi Zhu, Zheng Ping and Zhuge Liang seemed to have disappeared!
Liu Bei had no choice but to let Guan Yu and Zhang Fei organize the army while asking Liu Hui, Zhang Hong, Zhang Zhao and others for advice.

To Liu Bei's disappointment, neither Liu Hui nor Zhang Hong, Zhang Zhao and others could come up with a good idea.

Liu Bei suddenly discovered that there was no one except Zheng Ping who could discuss important decisions outside of Qingzhou!

Guangling County.

Xiapi Chen's merchant ships were moored on the shore.

Zheng Ping, who Liu Bei couldn't find, was grilling seafood with Chen Deng at the bow of the boat.

Zhuge Liang walked back and forth in the cabin curiously to inquire about the structural principles of the merchant ship.

"Xianmou, there is news from the north that Gongsun Zan raised 20 troops and wants to fight Yuan Shao to the death."

"Mi Zizhong also went to Xiapi to inquire about your whereabouts, presumably Liu Shijun is looking for you."

"Aren't you planning to go back to Linzi City?"

Chen Deng looked at Zheng Ping, who was concentrating on grilling seafood, and couldn't help asking.

While fanning the fireworks with a feather fan, Zheng Ping replied, "No hurry! It's useless to rush back."

"For military and political affairs, the civil and military affairs of Linzi City are enough to solve your confusion."

"I still sent people to look for me, just because the envoy was still thinking about how to save Gongsun Zan."

"But it's a pity that Gongsun Zan and the envoy are not the same people after all."

"Ignoring Shi Jun's personal friendship with Gongsun Zan, the more Gongsun Zan quarreled, the better it would be for Qingzhou."

"As the saying goes: Wealth touches people's hearts, let alone the imperial seal!"

When he saw the information from Youzhou that "Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu had a big fight, for some reason", Zheng Ping had a vague guess.

So after finalizing the strategy of "accumulating grain widely and building a city high", Zheng Ping took Zhuge Liang south with the reason of "attracting investment and investment".

Staying in Linzi City, Zheng Ping must set up a scheme for Liu Bei.

But leaving Linzi City, Zheng Ping didn't have to go against his will.

Gongsun Zan died when he died, and Zheng Ping didn't care at all.

Sending the Chuanguo Yuxi to Liu Yu was originally intended to make Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao disagree.

If Gongsun Zan, like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, can focus on Liu Bei's interests, then Zheng Ping doesn't mind giving Gongsun Zan a chance to make a name for himself.

Unfortunately, Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei are not fellow travelers.

Rather than being stuck in the future, it is better to take advantage of this opportunity to make Liu Bei completely stop thinking about saving Gongsun Zan.

As a brother, Liu Bei has done enough, and even gave up Jushou to Gongsun Zan.

However, Gongsun Zan couldn't help him up!
Chen Deng looked at Zheng Ping quietly, and sighed softly: "It's a pity! If Gongsun Zan and Liu Shijun could share the same hatred, it would not have turned into today's situation."

Zheng Ping handed the grilled seafood to Chen Deng, and said with a smile, "It's nothing to be sorry about. Gongsun Zan is a vicious dog, if he is not cooked and fed, he can only be killed for the envoy."

"Brother Yuanlong, on the contrary, when will you resign from the Diannong school captain and go to the camp first to be a military advisor?"

"Yun Chang often mentions Brother Yuanlong, wishing he could invite him in person."

Chen Deng was helpless: "Xianmou, I'm different from you."

"You are the second son, so Duke Kang Cheng's Zheng Xue can be handed over to your elder brother to inherit, and you can do whatever you want."

"But I'm different. I'm the eldest son, and my father only wants me to inherit the family business."

"Ugh--"

Zheng Ping said contemptuously: "Brother Yuanlong, for what reason are you restrained by uncle, don't I know?"

"What is the eldest son and the second son, can you change the reason?"

"Uncle is just worried that you are short-sighted and easily framed by villains."

"But it's different if you follow Yunchang. Yunchang values ​​friendship and dislikes people who are twisted and twisted the most. Therefore, most of the civil and martial arts under his command are straightforward and affectionate."

"You go to the camp first, so you don't have to worry about villains setting you up behind your back."

"But you are under Tao Qian's command, but you are prone to taboos. If you are not careful, Tao Qian will have to blame Xiapi Chen."

"Don't hesitate, come to Qingzhou!"

Chen Deng didn't answer, but quietly savored the smell of grilled seafood.

"It turns out that this sea food can still be eaten in this way, which is indeed much more delicious than eating it raw." Chen Deng Gu Zuo said to him.

Zheng Ping's tone was slightly stern: "Brother Yuanlong, if you eat too much of this sea creature raw, you will easily suffer from strange diseases."

"I don't want me to give you a coffin, so quit from now on."

"If you don't quit, I can only go to my uncle and let you go to Guanzhong to study."

Chen Deng was even more helpless: "Xianmou, I just want to eat this one. If you tell me not to eat, isn't it taking advantage of others?"

Zheng Ping snatched the seafood barbecue from Chen Deng's hand: "Don't eat cooked ones. If you insist on eating raw ones, then don't eat them."

"Hey, wait!" Chen Deng got up quickly: "I quit, can I quit? But you have to tell me the method of barbecue and the preparation of the seasoning."

"I used to bake it, but it wasn't delicious enough. It must be the wrong way."

Just talking.

Zhuge Liang walked out of the cabin and came to the bow.

"Brother, this boat is actually not complicated. If there is a craftsman, I can build it too." Zhuge Liang said endlessly.

Chen Deng didn't believe it: "Just by looking at the cabin, you know how the ship was built?"

"This is the largest merchant ship of my Chen family. It is the only one in Xuzhou. Mi Zizhong tried to buy it several times but failed."

Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "I read many books on merchant ship building before, but because I have never seen the internal structure of a merchant ship with my own eyes, I don't understand many things."

"I took a closer look at the cabin of the merchant ship today, and I understood everything I didn't understand."

Chen Deng pointed at Zhuge Liang and looked at Zheng Ping: "Xianmou, Ah Liang stole my Chen family's shipbuilding technology, do you have any objections to arresting him?"

Zhuge Liang sat next to Zheng Ping, not panicking at all: "After arresting me and going back, can you show me the map of the merchant ship? Maybe I can improve it!"

Chen Deng couldn't help being amused: "Xianmou, aren't you afraid that A Liang has learned too much, miscellaneous but not refined?"

Zheng Ping lightly shook his feather fan, and chuckled: "Compared to the poor, Ah Liang doesn't have to worry about food and drink, books and teachers, and places to practice. He can follow me to travel around when he is young. Both the envoy and the envoy will do their best to provide it."

"If this can make Ah Liang miscellaneous but not skilled, he will become a mediocre person."

"Then I must dig a hole and bury him, so that I won't be able to kill Ah Liang with tears in the future."

Zhuge Liang's expression collapsed: "Brother, how can you be so cruel..."

In an instant, there was a burst of laughter from the bow of the ship.

After staying at sea for three days, Zheng Ping and Zhuge Liang returned to Linzi City.

As soon as he returned to the city, Zheng Ping met Zhang Fei at the gate.

"Mr. Xianmou, you are back. Brother has asked me eight times today."

"If you don't come back, I will have to sleep at the gate of the city."

"Poor wife just got pregnant...but I'm not around..."

Zhang Fei had a resentful look on his face.

It seems to be saying: Mr. Xianmou doesn't come back, what does it have to do with me, Zhang Fei!

"What is so urgent that I must come back?" Zheng Ping asked knowingly.

Zhang Fei glanced around, and leaned closer and said, "Gongsun Zan raised 20 troops to fight Yuan Shao decisively."

"The Great Sima led the troops to persuade the war."

"Brother wanted to go too, but the pass of Jizhou does not allow soldiers and horses from Qingzhou to pass through."

"Yesterday, the spies reported that Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao had stopped fighting to make peace, and returned to Zhuojun with Da Sima."

"Not only that, Da Sima also appointed Gongsun Zan as the prefect of Zhuo County, who has the power to patrol the counties of Youzhou."

"Mr. Zigang speculates: Da Sima may be under house arrest by Gongsun Zan!"

"Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao probably formed an alliance."

Sure enough, it's still come this far.

Gongsun Zan, heh~
Zheng Ping secretly sneered.

If he didn't want to give Gongsun Zan a way to survive, he had to go to a dead end.

Is the Jade Seal of Chuanguo easy to touch?
"I see, you go back first." Zheng Ping understood the whole story and asked Zhang Fei to leave first.

Zhang Fei was immediately happy: "No hurry! No hurry! Since the husband is back, I will walk with him for a while."

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Brother, General Yide doesn't believe you!"

Zhang Fei blushed a little, pretended to be angry and reprimanded softly: "Ah Liang, you are still a child, don't ask about adults."

"How could I not trust Mr. Xianmou?"

Zhuge Liang was not afraid at all: "Then what are you doing with your brother?"

Zhang Fei said confidently: "The city of Linzi is not peaceful recently, I am escorting Mr. Xianmou!"

Zhuge Liang was "shocked": "General Yide, why don't you escort me first! I'm still young, and my brother can draw a strong bow!"

Zheng Ping chuckled: "Ah Liang, you should go back to the school first. How could Yide not follow the envoy's order?"

Zhang Fei chuckled: "Mr. Xianmou still understands me!"

When he came to the government office, Liu Bei was sitting playing chess with Guan Yu.

But looking at Liu Bei's expression, it is obvious that his mind is not on the chessboard.

"Brother, Mr. Xianmou is back!"

Hearing Zhang Fei's loud voice, Liu Bei suddenly raised his head, walked forward quickly, and said urgently, "Xianmou, you are back!"

"An accident happened in Youzhou!"

Zheng Ping nodded: "On the way here, Yide has already told me in detail."

"Is there any news about Jushou and Tian Feng?"

Liu Bei shook his head, his tone becoming serious: "No! Yesterday's spy came back from Liaodong."

"Zigang said that Brother Bogui was very likely to form an alliance with Yuan Shao, and put Da Sima under house arrest."

"If this is the case, Qingzhou, what should we do!"

For Liu Bei to ask this question, it means that he still has a lucky heart for Gongsun Zan.

Zheng Ping sighed softly: "Your Majesty, if you stop and stop, you will be subject to chaos."

"General Gongsun will return to Youzhou, presumably Ju Gongyu has already been abandoned by General Gongsun."

"There is only one possibility for Jizhou to block the pass and prevent Qingzhou soldiers and horses from passing through."

"Yuan Shao and General Gongsun already know that the Chuan Guo Yuxi is in Da Sima's place."

"They are going for Chuan Guo Yuxi!"

"General Gongsun has already fallen for Yuan Shao's trick, there is no way he can turn back."

Liu Bei's eyes were a little more sad: "Could it be that Brother Bogui also wants to follow Dong Zhuo's example?"

"After supporting the new emperor, he will be able to compare with the third prince."

"Indeed, there is no turning back."

Gongsun Zan's insistence on going his own way made Liu Bei sad.

"Emissary, now is not the time to mourn." Zheng Ping said slowly: "If General Gongsun invites the envoy to establish a new monarch together, how will the envoy choose?"
