Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 789 Life is full of surprises

In Runan, Yuzhou, the atmosphere during this period was extremely strange.Many soldiers were running back and forth inside and outside the city, transporting a large amount of luggage and dangerously shining ordnance to Duting.Many soldiers looked dignified, with a murderous look before the expedition, and even the inspection at the city gate was much stricter than usual.

For this reason, Liu Xie even had to linger outside the city for several days, and only after Jin Yiwei had prepared a customs clearance document did he sneak into Runan City safely.Until the time before General Pingnan's mansion, Liu Xie did not reveal his identity, but used Zhuge Liang Wolong's identity, saying that he could give General Pingnan a big gift to relieve General Pingnan's worries for several days.

The guards outside the mansion naturally knew that Liu Bei was frowning these days, but no one could guess the reason.At this time, hearing that this group of people boasted so much, naturally they dare not neglect.What's more, their eyesight is a bit sharper than those of the city gate soldiers, and they have long seen that these people are dressed in luxurious clothes and are not like ordinary people.The guards discussed and sent someone to report to Pingnan General Liu Bei.

At this moment in the mansion, General Pingnan Liu Bei was wearing casual clothes, looking out of the window with a melancholy expression at a peach tree with withered petals but growing fresh and tender fruits in a daze.In front of his case, there was a letter. When Liu Bei's eyes turned to this letter, the entanglement in his eyes seemed to have solidified.

"Brother, why is this difficult to decide?" Zhang Fei, who was walking back and forth in the hall, seemed to be worried about Liu Bei's mood for a long time: "The military order to send troops has been issued, and the emperor is now in Shuchuan and has no time to take care of here. I Even if we obey Cao Mengde and take down the four southern counties of Jingzhou, what can the emperor do?"

"Third brother, don't be reckless." Guan Yu, who is like Yuan Ting and Yue Zhi, stroked his long beard, and his face like a heavy jujube couldn't help being solemn: "If we go south to attack Jingzhou, we will cross the border and violate the court etiquette. The Son of Heaven is indeed in Shuchuan now, but you are not unaware of the news of the frequent success of the Han Dynasty army, and the resurgence of the Han Dynasty is quite prosperous today. My elder brother is a clan member of the Han Dynasty. How do you deal with yourself?"

"Then didn't we take down half of Jingzhou before?" Zhang Fei, who had always been in awe of Guan Yu, seemed rather unwilling this time.

"The previous campaign was ordered to hunt down thieves, so how can it be the same as this time's arbitrarily raising troops and invading the world?" Guan Yu shook the Yanyue Saber in his hand and reprimanded Zhang Fei heavily.

"Second brother, third brother, don't fight any more." Liu Xie stopped the two of them from arguing dejectedly, raised his eyes and looked at the scribe who had never spoken: "Military division, the matter has come to this, what can we do?"

This scribe has a handsome appearance, although he has a beard under his chin, it adds to his masculinity.What's more noteworthy is that this person is also wearing a sharp sword. Looking at the calluses all over his palm, it can be seen that this sharp sword is not an ordinary scholar's decoration, but a sharp sword that can really kill.

This person is Liu Bei's new military advisor in Yuzhou: Xu Shu.

But before Xu Shu could speak, Zhang Fei laughed first, "Brother, this order to prepare the army is the advice of the military adviser. Presumably the military adviser meant that he went south to take the four counties of Jingzhou."

As soon as the words fell, Guan Yu didn't speak again, but a flash of lightning involuntarily jumped out of his slightly squinted eyes.Xu Shu was quite inductive, and immediately raised his body and grasped the hilt of the sword. After realizing that the murderous aura was emanating from Guan Yu, he slowly relaxed his body.Seeing this, Liu Bei couldn't help sighing and said, "Yun Chang, I know you are both wise and courageous, and you are proud of your ambition. However, the military commander is not an ordinary mediocre and incompetent person, just listen to the military teacher's words."

But even though Liu Bei spoke, Guan Yu just nodded slightly and didn't say much, let alone apologize to Xu Shu.On the contrary, Xu Shu blinked his eyes a little, as if he had already gotten used to Guan Yu's anger.

"My lord, if you send troops to march, you must take the title of righteousness. This is the way to learn the name. If the lord sends troops to the south, what kind of name should you use?" Knowing that Guan Yu's pride will not be easily changed, Xu Shu didn't take it to heart. So he opened his mouth and asked Liu Bei about the business.

This statement made Liu Bei's complexion even darker, and Zhang Fei couldn't help becoming anxious: "Military Master, you are the one who suggested to prepare the army, and now you are the one who taught the army without a name. What do you mean?"

Before Zhang Fei opened his mouth, Xu Shu covered his ears with precautions. Before Zhang Fei could bully him, he saw a guard outside the hall approaching suspiciously, so he waved his hand to stop Zhang Fei and said, "What I mean... if If you guess right, the solution has already been offered to your door."

Zhang Fei turned his head suddenly, and stared at the guard with leopard eyes like copper bells, scaring the guard so much that he almost turned around and wanted to run away.Zhang Fei suddenly shouted angrily: "If you dare to turn your head, I will break your leg!"

"Third Brother..." Liu Bei called out again helplessly, wanting to warn Zhang Fei not to belittle the soldiers so much.But Guan Yu, who was at the side, had already opened his mouth to help his guard and said: "Third brother, let's see what this guard has to report."

"General, there is a group of people outside the mansion. They say they are the champions of Nanzhou, and they can solve the general's knot." The guard clasped his fists to report, but looked at Zhang Fei with trepidation, as if he was afraid that Zhang Fei would jump over and beat him.

But as soon as these words came out, Guan Yu, who had just rescued him from the siege, also turned angry, and couldn't help snorting: "There are some people who don't know the heights of the sky and the earth, and want to use this to gain fame and raise their own value!"

Liu Bei, who was on the main case, glanced at Xu Shu who was agreeing to him at this time, raised his hand and said: "Now is the time when I am in a dilemma in Yuzhou, and I will welcome those people. Even if I can't say any tricks, it will be better." I'm waiting here to sit in the city of sorrow."

After hearing Liu Bei's words, the guards quickly exited the inner hall under Zhang Fei's glaring gaze.Not long after, he led those people forward, but unexpectedly, this time he saw not only the leopard eyes of the three generals widen, but even the lord Liu Bei got up suddenly.Before the guard figured out the situation, a young master behind him jumped out and walked towards the lobby grandly, as if this was his residence.

"Bold!" Seeing this, the guard immediately shouted with a knife.

"You are bold!" The three brothers Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei also shouted at the same time.

When the guard heard this, he didn't expect that he was so appreciated by the lord and the two generals this time, so he hurried forward to stop the young man in brocade clothes: "That's right, you are so brave! How dare you be so presumptuous! "

It's a pity that before the guard really showed his steel knife, he suddenly felt that his body was much lighter.Then when he was in mid-air, his face turned pale with fright.He fell down and sat down, the pain made him grin his teeth, but then he immediately heard the words that made his face like snow: "This is today, how dare you draw your sword at each other?!"

Mr. Zhang's angry shout was like rolling thunder, and the guards didn't know whether he was frightened by the shout or stunned by the content of the words.Anyway, he just sat on the ground foolishly, staring at Liu Xie who was unceremoniously sitting on the main seat, dumbfounded.Then he found that the young man on the main seat suddenly smiled at him: "How does it feel, is it exciting? Do you suddenly feel that life is full of surprises?"

'Surprise your brother-in-law! ...is this a surprise?I was so frightened that I lost my soul, okay! The guard with a cute face, at this moment, he only felt that a hundred thousand Liangzhou Zhao Yebai galloped through his mind, trampling his world view.

Fortunately, this is just a small episode.Although the guard didn't hear what the emperor said later, anyway, he heard General Zhang's thunderous words afterwards: "Your Majesty thought that you didn't know, and you have forgiven your crime of rudeness, why don't you back down? !"

The guard felt that he had narrowly escaped death, so he bowed to Liu Xie on the spot, and crawled away.And when he just left, after Liu Bei saluted in fear, he couldn't help asking Liu Xie: "Is your majesty here..."

Liu Xie didn't wait for Liu Bei to finish speaking, he waved his hand and said, "The road to Shu is difficult, and it is difficult to climb to the blue sky. Monkeys can't even climb up that place. I've been tired of it for a long time, so I came here to have a look."

Seeing that Liu Xie was so casual, Liu Bei became more respectful and cautious: "Then I don't know why your majesty is here?"

"I heard that the emperor's uncle is going to make a big move when he prepares his army. You know, I was born to work hard, and I can't always be idle..." This time, Liu Xie's tone of speech slowed down a lot, but at the same time, The eyes became sharper and sharper.When You Qi glanced at Liu Bei, he felt a little cold.

"Your Majesty, this matter, this matter..." Liu Bei never expected Liu Xie's sudden surrender, so he was caught off guard and couldn't even make up a cover-up.

Immediately afterwards, without waiting for Liu Bei's explanation, Liu Xie suddenly slapped the table with his palm, stood up suddenly and shouted: "Uncle Huang, you really did a great job!"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the lobby suddenly became serious.Although Guan Yu and Zhang Fei had weapons in their hands, they didn't dare to disobey Liu Xie in that hall.All the murderous aura above the lobby was emitted by Liu Xie alone, and the icy murderous aura continued to condense, and the temperature in the hall seemed to have dropped a lot for a while.

But just when Liu Bei was about to bow down and plead guilty, Liu Xie's gloomy and throbbing eyebrows suddenly calmed down.Not only that, but his complexion became cheerful and joyful as ice and snow met the sun: "The emperor saw that Cao Mengde violated the etiquette and caused chaos without authorization, so he took the initiative to attack Cao's army with his own army. He is really a pillar of the Han Dynasty! !"

Liu Bei was stunned when he heard the words, and then he came to his senses. He bowed down and said: "Your Majesty is right. As the uncle of the Han family, how can I turn a blind eye to the Cao thief who is wreaking havoc on the country? This time the army is preparing for war. An order from the imperial court, we will wait for an army of [-], and we will do our best to hunt down the thieves and strive to be the first!"
