Can I get to the other side?.

Chapter 27 Meeting Liu, Guan and Zhang

"Borrowing troops?"

The two words Liu Bei said instantly extinguished Yuan Shao's enthusiasm, leaving even the flame extinguished.

He knew that the purpose of this guy coming here was not that simple!
Although Yuan Shao's enthusiasm had faded, he could not change his expression directly, so he pretended to be concerned and asked: "What happened? Why did Xuande want to borrow troops from me? Where are your troops in Pei County?"

Liu Bei said with shame: "Brother Yuan, you don't know that I was ambushed by Lü Bu's three-surname servant. Not only did I lose Pei County, but even my wife and children were captured by them."

"Now I have nowhere else to turn, so I came to seek help from Brother Yuan."

"Brother Yuan has now been promoted to the position of Grand General and Grand Marshal, in charge of all military affairs. I hope Brother Yuan can lend me some troops to help me defeat the traitor Lu Bu and recapture Pei County."

Liu Bei looked sincere and stood up and bowed deeply to Yuan Shao.

"This……"

After hearing Liu Bei's purpose, Yuan Shao looked hesitant.

He didn't say yes, but he didn't refuse directly either.

Seeing Yuan Shao's hesitation, Zhang Fei could not help but said, "We are just borrowing troops. We are not unwilling to return them. As long as you take back Pei County, the three of us brothers will definitely not owe you a debt!"

"Yide, don't be rude!"

Liu Bei turned around and reprimanded him, then apologized to Yuan Shao, saying, "Brother Yuan, please forgive my third brother's rough temper."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Fei retreated to the back with a groan.

The reason why he was so rude in front of Yuan Shao was intentional, otherwise Liu Bei would have lost face.

The two brothers have used this trick many times and it worked well.

As expected, Yuan Shao's attitude softened slightly. He waved his hand and said, "It's okay. I'm not against it, but borrowing troops is not a trivial matter. Xuande, let me think about it for one night and give you an answer tomorrow. How about that?"

Liu Bei cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Of course."

He did not expect Yuan Shao to agree immediately. Borrowing troops was indeed not a trivial matter. How many soldiers to borrow and how much food to provide all needed to be discussed.

If Yuan Shao agreed immediately, he would become suspicious.

After talking about this, Yuan Shao looked at the other person standing next to Liu Bei, and his eyes lit up slightly.

"General Guan, long time no see."

Yuan Shao greeted with a smile.

He had a deep impression of Guan Yu. When he was fighting against Dong Zhuo, he drank warm wine and killed Hua Xiong. He still couldn't forget how graceful he was.

It can be said that none of the generals under his command could compare with Guan Yu.

Guan Yu bowed to Yuan Shao as a return gesture, and then continued to stand beside Liu Bei like a guardian angel.

Feeling Guan Yu's coldness, Yuan Shao couldn't help but feel jealous towards Liu Bei.

Both Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were powerful generals capable of defeating thousands of enemies.

Even looking across the world, such generals are extremely rare.

"How can a poor royal family member who made straw sandals make such a good person deserve the loyalty of two powerful generals who can defeat thousands of enemies?"

"It's really shit luck!"

Yuan Shao was quite jealous. He looked down on Liu Bei, but he was very envious of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

If we can recruit these two people, we will be able to defeat an army of 100,000!
"Brother Yuan, I wonder when we can go to see His Majesty?"

Liu Bei opened his mouth and asked, since he had come to Yecheng, he must go to see the emperor, otherwise it would be unreasonable.

Yuan Shao put away his sour feelings and said with a smile: "I have sent someone to the palace to report to His Majesty. It should be soon... Look, it's coming."

As he was speaking, Ju Su walked into the lobby.

"My lord, I have reported to His Majesty, and His Majesty said that Liu Shijun and other three men should be allowed to enter the palace for an audience." Ju Su said.

Yuan Shao nodded, stood up and said, "Let's go, Xuande, I'll take you there."

He was worried about letting Liu Bei and the other two go to see the emperor alone, so he decided to take them there himself, so that he could help if anything happened. So they set off for the palace.

……

Inside the palace at this time.

Liu Xie had already changed his clothes and was waiting in the hall.

After Ju Su's training, his words and deeds are now no different from those of a real emperor, and no one can find any flaws.

However, when Liu Xie thought that he would be meeting the trio of Liu, Guan and Zhang later, he still felt a little nervous.

It’s not because of anything else, but because I’m going to meet a real historical figure, and one of the three kingdoms in the future.

"Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei..."

Liu Xie murmured to himself that these three people were a model of brotherhood and had influenced countless people in later generations.

It can be said that without them, the Three Countries would be missing a lot of excitement and romance.

"Your Majesty, someone is coming."

When Liu Xie was daydreaming, Guo Jia, who was standing next to him, whispered a reminder, bringing his thoughts back to normal.

Liu Xie looked outside the hall and saw a group of people walking in.

The leaders were Yuan Shao and Ju Su, old acquaintances.

The three people following behind had somewhat strange looks.

One had arms that went past his knees and extremely long earlobes;

One has a leopard head, round eyes, a swallow chin and a tiger beard;

A man with a face as red as a date and an imposing bearing.

With just one glance, Liu Xie confirmed their identities.

They are Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei!
"The Romance of the Three Kingdoms never deceives me."

Liu Xie sighed in his heart that the three brothers looked almost the same as described in the book. They could be said to be very vivid and easily recognizable.

After the group entered the hall, Yuan Shao bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I am here with Liu Bei, a relative of the Han Dynasty, to see you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Bei stepped forward and saluted Liu Xie respectfully.

"Your Majesty, I, Liu Bei, pay my respects to you!"

Liu Xie looked at Liu Bei and asked curiously, "Are you Liu Bei? I heard that you are a relative of the Han Dynasty. I wonder who your ancestors are? Which lineage are you from?"

Liu Bei answered truthfully: "Your Majesty, my ancestor is Liu Sheng, the seventh son of Emperor Xiaojing and the King of Zhongshan. I am the seventeenth generation grandson of King of Zhongshan."

"I see. Then I shall call you Imperial Uncle!"

Liu Xie suddenly realized.

But these words made Liu Bei stunned.

Is it so fast to calculate seniority?

Shouldn't I look up the family tree?
This is too hasty...

But how could he know that Liu Xie also wanted to look through the family tree to recognize his relatives? But the family tree was in the hands of the real Liu Xie, and he had nothing.

So it’s better to keep it simple and just acknowledge each other directly.

Although Liu Bei felt that something seemed to be wrong, he naturally would not refute it because it was an acknowledgement from the emperor.

To be honest, some people have always questioned his identity as King Jing of Zhongshan, because there are so many descendants of King Jing of Zhongshan that it is difficult to tell the real one from the fake one.

But now the emperor has admitted it himself and called him the imperial uncle.

From then on, no one could question his identity!
His identity as a relative of the Han royal family was truly confirmed.
