Chapter 1355 - Return to Destiny (5/5 Asking for a Monthly Pass~)
After everyone left, Bai Xiaowen returned to the inner hall.
Not long after, Li Shuyi led Zhao Yun to come.
"Today's confrontation in the lobby, General Zilong saw it?" Bai Xiaowen said.
Zhao Yun was a little unaccustomed to being called by Bai Xiaowen, but he didn't care about these details, just nodded silently.
"The things of the world are like this. What you see is only what others want to see for you. Everyone has an unknown side, such as Liu Bei,"
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said, "The three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang are indeed very righteous. However, this kind of brotherhood is only suitable for walking the rivers and lakes, not for dominating the world. You follow Liu Bei, no matter how brave and good you are, you will never be able to integrate into the inner circle of the three brothers, and you will be an outsider after all. ”
Zhao Yun nodded and said, "I also understand this. ”
Bai Xiaowen said: "Since you understand that Liu Bei is not your master, why don't you turn to my account? Don't you hear that 'good birds choose trees to perch on, and virtuous ministers choose their masters to do things'? If you want to follow the Ming Lord and leave a name in history, I am the best choice. ”
Zhao Yun shook his head: "Uncle Liu Huang has always been the lord of my follow, and this will not change because of his defeat." Yan Gong was kind and received it in his heart. I am willing to die with the two generals, Lord Gong and Guan Zhang. ”
Bai Xiaowen sighed, he really couldn't recruit Zhao Yun.
"General Zilong, why don't you and I make an agreement?"
Bai Xiaowen activated the backup plan and said with a smile: "Brother Liu Bei, I can not kill." But......" he paused.
Zhao Yun was a little surprised, and then seemed to think of something: "Should Duke Yan use my surrender as a condition for letting Uncle Liu and General Guan Zhanger go?"
Bai Xiaowen smiled: "If I really put forward this condition, will you agree?"
Zhao Yun said without hesitation: "No." The eldest husband was born in heaven and earth, doing something and not doing something; My ambition is to follow my lord Kuang Fu Han Dynasty, not to seal my wife and son, and leave a name in history. If my lord had known of this quid pro quo, he would not have agreed to it. ”
Bai Xiaowen shook his head: "Okay! Then I'll change the condition......
......
That night, Bai Xiaowen set up a banquet to invite Liu Guanzhang and the others.
The banquet was very sumptuous, with all kinds of singing and dancing, but the host was only Bai Xiaowen, and the guests were only Liu Guanzhang, and Ge Xuan was also accompanied. There were five people in total, and they gathered in the hall to drink.
Liu Bei and the three of them are indeed extraordinary, obviously they are cut off their heads, but they are drunk to the glass, and they talk and laugh as usual.
Bai Xiaowen praised: "Your Excellency's three brothers are really heroes. ”
When his face was red and his ears were hot, Liu Bei said: "If Liu Bei has a foundation, there is no need to worry about the world's busy people." ”
Bai Xiaowen smiled: "It's a pity, I know that you are heroes, but I can't keep you." ”
Liu Bei said: "If you don't kill Liu Bei, I'm afraid Yan Gong won't be able to sleep." I have no problem dying, I only hate the Han family. ”
Bai Xiaowen nodded and said: "Soon after Gu Ping settled Yizhou, a messenger arrived in Yedu, and the ministers invited Gu to become the 'King of Yan' and add nine tin to show the glory. ”
Zhang Fei glared and sneered: "The courtiers of the clay sculptures, the ministers of the wood carvings! The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, including the emperor, are not at your disposal to rub them flat and round." ”
Bai Xiaowen laughed and said, "The third general is not a rough man, these two sentences are to the point. ”
Liu Bei stopped Zhang Fei and said to Bai Xiaowen: "The general trend of the world is like this, and it is beyond human power to change it. After the prince of Wangyan unified the world, he was able to exercise benevolent government, eliminate military disasters, and bring the world back to a prosperous era; the son of heaven of the Han family was innocent of all sins, and hoped to end his life. ”
Bai Xiaowen said: "The four seas are peaceful, it is also Lone's wish, as for the Son of Heaven, he is also a person who knows the times, Lone will naturally not cause harm, and he will not be worry-free for the rest of his life." ”
Liu Bei was silent for a while, got up and said, "My three brothers are already full of wine and food. Where is the axeman? You can take our head and so on. ”
Bai Xiaowen looked unbearable and said, "You really can't descend on me?"
Liu Bei shook his head resolutely.
Bai Xiaowen sighed, waved his hand and ordered the waiter to enter with a tray on it, with a jade pot and three gold bottles on it.
The waiter poured the wine, and the wine in the jade pot was yellow.
Liu Bei said with a smile: "My brothers have been fighting horses for half their lives, and they can still keep the whole corpse, how lucky." He immediately removed the middle decanter.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei each picked up a wine bottle, and the three brothers stood opposite each other in a ring, raising their wine glasses.
"I do not seek to be born on the same day and month of the same year, but to die on the same day of the same month. If you violate this oath, heaven and man will be killed!"
After the three brothers had drunk, they shook themselves and then fell to the ground.
There was a commotion outside, and the sound of footsteps sounded, Zhao Yun entered the inner hall, and saw that the three brothers Liu Guanzhang had all fallen to the ground, and they had no breath, and couldn't help but be angry: "You...... Broken promises?"
Bai Xiaowen smiled: "Zilong doesn't need to panic. ”
Ge Xuan got up and said, "General Zhao doesn't know anything. Poor Dao was entrusted by Gongzi to refine a furnace of 'Returning Pill', which can also be dissolved in wine. After taking it, you will be unconscious for half a month, like a dead person, and after half a month, you will wake up. ”
After a pause, Ge Xuan said again: "If the general doesn't believe it, you can go and investigate." ”
Zhao Yun leaned over and probed Liu Bei's pulse, and found that there was no pulse, and there was no breath at the end of his nose; it wasn't until he poked into his chest, and after a long time, he could feel his heartbeat, like a hibernating old turtle, his heartbeat was extremely slow.
Zhao Yun breathed a sigh of relief. He also understood that Bai Xiaowen was willing to go to such great lengths, and he would definitely not kill Liu Bei and the others.
However, Zhao Yun still asked: "I don't know what Gong Yan will do with my master?"
Bai Xiaowen said: "In the extreme east, there is a list of islands called Dongying. Gu had already prepared a fast boat to send Liu Bei and the others to Dongying, and then scuttled the ship to prevent them from returning to the Central Plains. ”
Bai Xiaowen had already inquired in advance that the unification of the Three Kingdoms plane did not need to conquer Dongying, Nanyue, Beihu, and the Western Regions, as long as the fourteen states (including the newly carved Yongzhou) could be unified.
Zhao Yun will be skeptical.
Bai Xiaowen said: "After the agreement between you and me is completed, I will give you a nautical chart and a big ship, and you can take Liu Bei's family to Dongying to find Liu Bei." ”
Zhao Yun could only believe in Bai Xiaowen at this time, so he thanked him.
Yizhou has been decided, Liu Bei has also been resolved, Bai Xiaowen ordered Zhang He to lead 30,000 troops to march east along Ba County, meet Wei Yan, and capture Jingzhou.
Bai Xiaowen led the rest of the soldiers and returned to the court. However, the parade generals are missing.
Bai Xiaowen asked, and Ma Dai and Ma Yunlu knelt on the ground to plead guilty.
It turned out that Ma Chao was digging Pang Tong's grave and dissecting the coffin and killing the corpse, so he returned to his homeland and went to guard filial piety for Ma Teng. I was afraid that Bai Xiaowen would not allow it, so I didn't say goodbye.
