Chapter 315, Contest
Liu Bang and Liu Yuan fell into a long silence, and the hall was so quiet that it was audible to drop a needle.
It's like a contest, a contest between two emperors. Face off in silence to see who can hold out more.
Liu Yuan was defeated from this contest, and it was not a crime of war, but the taste of being tied up was too uncomfortable. The arms are fine, but the two thighs are made into this arc, which is really painful.
"Gaozu, I have arrived at you, even if I don't have any wine to drink, I shouldn't treat me like this. Hands and feet are tied, it is inevitable that you will lose your hospitality!"
Liu Bang got up from the futon, stood on top of His Majesty, and said with a smile: "You are invited by me, I am afraid that you will run away." ”
"I've reached the cluster, how can I run out! Or let me go first, it's really uncomfortable. ”
"Hehe, if I let you go, you take advantage of my unpreparedness and kidnap me, won't you escape? I'm not stupid, you shouldn't be so clever in front of me. ”
Liu Yuan's mind was broken, and he didn't blush, but said: "Gaozu slashed the White Snake uprising back then, held the Chixiao Sword, and fought in the north and south, even Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, was defeated in your hands, how can I hijack Gaozu in my next life." ”
"If I had believed you three hundred years earlier, but unfortunately, I am now old, and I don't have the courage to do so! I have something to talk to you about, and when I have finished talking, I will order someone to send you out of the city, and I will never interfere with you in the future. ”
Liu Yuan was a little suspicious of his words, but now that it had fallen into the hands of the other party, he could only do it by the other party. Then he said, "Let's talk about it." ”
"The North Courtyard is a place where the previous dynasties resolved grievances, and it is not orthodox to enter the city. I asked Yan Jundian, you don't have the qualifications to build a city. But you are also the emperor of a dynasty, and you have some hands under you, if you are asked to stay in the prefecture and county of the prefecture to live, you will not be reconciled. What I want to talk to you about is cooperation. ”
Liu Yuan interjected: "Does Gaozu want me to gather the old ministry and join you here?"
Liu Bang waved his hand, shook his head and said: "My Han family has accumulated for four hundred years, and there are countless famous generals, and I still can't look down on your little family background." ”
"Then what kind of cooperation are you talking about?"
"Don't worry, there is a dilapidated city in Beiting, which was originally left by Sima Yi, and was later occupied by a group of robbers, and changed its name to Xiongcheng, the leader of the robbers is called Yuan Shao, he lacks talents, you might as well take someone to join him, I think it must be reused." ”
"Does Gaozu want me to do the internal response?"
"No, I'm asking you to be the boss. Yuan Shao's yin life is coming to an end, and he is not far from reincarnation, and his younger brother and son are running out, but Xiongcheng still has the need to exist. You go over, take Xiongcheng up, continue to form an alliance with Sun Ce, and help Cao Cao to fight. ”
Asking one's own enemy to do his other enemy a favor can only be explained by the reason of a fool when it comes to any one person. But the old rascal in front of him didn't look like a fool at all. Whoever really thinks of him as a fool is a fool himself.
Liu Yuan was very heartfelt and asked, "I can't think of a reason why Gao Zu did this. ”
Liu Bang slowly walked down from His Majesty, his fingers tapping on the railing, making a crisp sound. He walked all the way to Liu Yuan, leaned over to look at him, and said, "You don't need to care what my reasons are, you just need to tell me, do it or not." ”
"What good will it do if I do it?"
"The Han family will provide money and food to help you gain a foothold in the North Garden. Liu Yao in the world is not your own son, if you don't hurry up, when he dies, there will be no chance for you. ”
"Well, I did. ”
"Well, that's the smart guy!"
Liu Bang untied the rope that bound him, Liu Yuan had to get rid of the restraints, and a carp straightened, stood up straight, and moved his hands and feet.
Liu Bang turned around and walked towards His Majesty Dan again, and said as he walked: "You can think about it here now, who needs to be gathered." I'll have someone send you out later. ”
"Gao Zu is so relieved of me?"
Liu Yuan's voice sounded from behind him, and a hand was placed on his shoulder. After settling on his knees again, Liu Bang knelt straight down and knelt in front of the steps. The hand on his shoulder was already on his neck, clasping his throat tightly.
"Did Gao Zu ever think that there would be such a scene now?"
"You don't want to be the lord of one side in the underworld? After all, you have been an emperor, so you don't even have this ambition. ”
"Naturally, there is, but I don't have the habit of being someone else's puppet. Gaozu wants me to be your puppet, but it's a little too natural. ”
Liu Bang smiled weirdly and said, "If you don't want to toast, don't blame me for feeding you wine." ”
"Oh, Gaozu is now in my hands, how can I feed me the wine. ”
"You should always know that ghosts don't die a second time. Liu Bang said such a sentence leisurely.
In a flash of lightning, Liu Yuan only felt a pain in his hand, and then he changed the offensive and defensive positions, Liu Bang reached behind him in a moment with a step that he couldn't understand, twisted his arm over, and pressed his whole person to the ground.
The rope was tied to him again, and his hands and feet were folded behind his back and tied together. Liu Bang squatted there, tying knots one after another, and then he was satisfied.
"You, you're too reckless. If you ask a few more questions in the judge's office, you will not be so ignorant. I am a disciple of the Seven Yamas of the Difu, a character walking on the path of immortals, and with you, you will also match me. Come on, throw him down for me, and let Zhuge Liang teach him to be a ghost!"
Liu Che walked in from outside the main hall with a dark face, and arched his hand: "Gaozu, do you have anything else to explain?"
"No, go ahead. Tell Zhuge Liang that if the means are ruthless, he won't die anyway. ”
"Obey the orders of the ancestors!"
Liu Che carried Liu Yuan and strode out. He was really unwilling to take on this job, so he looked down on people like Liu Yuan, opportunistic, if it weren't for Sima Yan and Sima Zhen being too incompetent, how could Liu Yuan become a hero. The prince of the Huns, there was also one under him back then, a loyal minister, a great loyal minister!
The sound of footsteps was still echoing in the emptiness of the main hall, and Liu Bang had returned to the futon and sat down again. He took out the knife and bamboo slips from under the futon, and carved "Liu Yuan is already in my hand, and I don't cooperate very much." It will take some time, don't worry, I will make Liu Yuan useful to me. ”
After carving the bamboo slips, Liu Bang looked at the brazier again. The brazier was a little far away, and he really didn't want to move.
Zai Yu also didn't want to move, these days, with Ling'er, he has changed more than 20 counties. But his instincts still tell him that it's not safe at the moment. He couldn't figure out where that feeling came from, but he didn't dare to take his instincts lightly.
The bigger the work, the more care you should have. Because any small mistake can lead to a full loss. The rebels always pin their heads to their belts, and Zai Yu does much bigger things than rebellions, not to mention pinning their heads to their belts, they are simply pinning their next few lives to it.
I packed my bags, and I just saw the bell pushing the door in.
"Quick, pack up your things, go immediately, let's go to the grassland to take refuge. ”
Ling'er raised the food in her hand and said, "Master, you might as well eat before leaving." This is freshly cooked mutton, and it doesn't taste good when it's cold. ”
"Eat while walking, come here, I'll change your appearance, you've seen how the old woman walks, how she talks, right? ”
Jaeyu took the food from her hand and placed it on the table.
A burst of blue light immediately appeared on her hands, covering Ling'er's face. After a few moments, the brilliance was gone. Suzu'er has changed her face full of wrinkles, and she looks like she is dozens of years old.
"Master, do you want to give an explanation to Senior Sister?"
"No, she's safe there. You go out of the inn first and wait for me at the north gate. ”
"Yes, Master. ”
There is no mistake
