In late spring, the winter chill has completely faded. Although there were layers of dark clouds overhead, Liu Bei still hunched over and carefully watered every radish in the courtyard. He knew that a spring rain was about to fall soon, but he still worked tirelessly to water the ground himself. Otherwise, this afternoon, he will be bored. "What are you doing here?" I crouched against the wall and looked at it for a while, and I couldn't help but ask.

"Ah, Miss Ren, you're here!" Liu Bei straightened his waist and suddenly got up after bowing for a long time, the pain of the stretching of his waist tendons made him grin, "I'm watering the hailstones, so that they can only be refreshed when they are ripe." ”

"I know you're giving vegetable glue—" I was a little helpless, "I mean, you're going to grow vegetables here for the rest of your life?"

The three words 'Clothes and Ribbon Edict' seemed to have turned on a certain switch in Liu Bei's mind, and he instantly stopped hurting in his waist, jumped up in shock, looked around and said to me in an almost pleading tone: "Miss Ren, be cautious in your words and deeds! Now there are Cao Cao's eyeliner everywhere, you still have to be careful." It's not that I don't bother to punish the thief, it's just that Cao Cao is very wary of me now, if I show my feet, we will probably have to meet at the execution ground..."

"Boom... Knock knock..."A rude slamming sound came from the door, interrupting Liu Bei's chatter. After exchanging glances with him, I quickly jumped off the fence and hid in the alley on the other side. Liu Bei hurriedly grabbed two handfuls of mud from the ground and pasted them on his face, and now he completely became an honest vegetable farmer.

"Coming, coming," he said, he walked briskly to open the door, and as soon as he opened a crack the courtyard door was rudely pushed open completely. Xu Chu walked into the courtyard with more than a dozen tiger guards, first squinted his eyes and looked around, and then said to Liu Bei: "Envoy, please make a difference!"

"Ah, what's the matter?" Liu Bei was really panicked now. "I don't know, just let you go with me. Xu Chu motioned to Liu Bei with his eyes not to force him too much. In front of a rough man like him, Liu Bei had no choice but to be obedient and go to Sikong Mansion under the "escort" of the tiger guards.

"A man who is a hero has great ambitions, has good intentions, has the opportunity to contain the universe, and has the ambition to swallow heaven and earth. Xuande knows, who can deserve it?" Cao Cao drank the wine in the cup in one gulp and said with a smile. But when he looked at Liu Bei, there was no trace of a smile in his eyes.

"Lao Guan, Lao Zhang!" I can't wait for the horse under my crotch to fly. Liu Bei was taken away by the tiger guard in front of me, and I felt that something was wrong, so I immediately drove my horse outside the city to find Guan and Zhang. The two of them had nothing to do in Xuchang City all day long, and they went out of the city to hunt today, but they didn't expect Liu Bei to be severely punished at this time.

Although Liu Bei is a submissive person, I don't think he can achieve great things, but Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are the key to destroying Cao Thief in my opinion. And if Liu Bei suffers misfortune, after these two people lose their backbone, they will not do much. So Liu Bei can't die, at least for now, he can't die in this Xu Capital City.

In the distance, two stout men sat on two military horses. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were talking and laughing about a wild goose shot by the latter, but after hearing my call, they realized that something was wrong and immediately became serious.

"Miss Ren, but what happened to my eldest brother?" Guan Yu stroked my horse's head to calm it down. There was a wild run just now, and the poor boy was tired enough, and now his saliva was about to spew out uncontrollably.

"Exactly, he was taken to Sikong Mansion by Xu Chu!" "I don't have time to beat around the bush now, so I'll cut straight to the point." "Fuck, dare to move big brother!" Zhang Fei's eyes widened angrily, and with a flick of his left hand, he slammed the body of the wild goose to the ground. "Second brother, let's go, let's go and theorize with Cao Cao, why catch my eldest brother for no reason?"

I said in my heart that if what your eldest brother did was known to Cao Cao, it would really not be for no reason, but without forgiveness.

"Gotta go. Guan Yu stroked his hair and pondered, "But we can't use force, we still have to reason with Cao Cao." This is other people's territory, and we will all die without a place to bury us. "Okay, I like to reason with people the most, Miss Ren, thank you!" After Zhang Fei left a sentence, he rushed to Xuchang City.

"Thank you, Miss Ren, for informing me. Guan Yu only got on the horse after saluting. "Where, as it should be. I wiped the beads of sweat from my face, "It's inconvenient for me to show my face in front of Cao Cao, so I won't follow." "Okay, wait until we rescue the eldest brother and find a chance to talk about it." Guan Yu clamped his legs and chased after Zhang Fei, who had already run a hundred meters away. 52 Literature

“... Hahaha, what Xuande said is nothing more than dry bones in the grave, and sooner or later it will be broken by me. In Gu's opinion, the heroes of the world, only you and me!" Cao Cao looked at Liu Bei with interest, he hoped that the other party's next move would not disappoint him.

Hearing this, Liu Bei shuddered, the soup spoon in his hand fell involuntarily, and at the same time as it shattered, a thunderclap exploded in the sky. "Wow!" Liu Bei exclaimed and almost jumped up from his seat, "What a loud thunder, it scared me to death." ”

"Husband, are you afraid of thunder?" Cao Cao's tone could not tell whether he was satisfied or lost. "What kind of husband am I, I've been timid since I was a child. Liu Bei laughed and said, "I hope the prime minister won't be surprised." ”

"Division... Sikong," at this moment, a small guy ran into the court in a panic, "out... Something happened!" "What are you panicking about?" Cao Cao said sternly, "Don't scare Liu Yuanjun anymore." "Ahh The slave knows his mistake..."The little guy hurriedly knelt down and admitted his mistake.

"Say, what's the matter?" Cao Cao asked, not too much to blame. "The two generals, Guan and Zhang, are now outside the mansion and want to come in to find Liu Yuanjun, but General Xu refuses, and the three of them are about to fight. "This tiger idiot, mess around. Cao Cao pretended to be angry and said, "Quickly invite the two generals in." ”

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei walked quickly through the atrium, came to Cao Cao and Liu Bei's feast, and knelt down to salute, but the two of them exuded substantial killing intent. "I heard that Sikong and his brother were drinking, and the two of us came to dance the sword to help the fun. Guan Yu raised his head and said calmly.

"Hahaha," Cao Cao laughed, "this is not a Hongmen banquet, not so much." Moreover, I am not Xiang Yu either. "That is, it is a clear and clear sense, who is loyal and who is treacherous, and has its own clear judgment. Liu Bei said with a smile. "Come on, add two more pieces of chopsticks and let the two Fan Xue sit down!" Cao Cao was quite appreciative of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. "This is not in line with the etiquette, right?" Liu Bei panicked. "It's okay," Cao Cao disagreed, "Some rituals have long been outdated, and Lone is the one who breaks them." ”

After the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang left, Cao Cao stood in the courtyard, wantonly breathing in the fresh air after the rain. A thin old man walked out from behind the screen and stood respectfully behind Cao Cao.

"Zhongde, Lonely, look down on Liu Bei. Cao Cao smiled, "But that's it." "Liu Bei really can't be a hero. Cheng Yu continued, and now he has largely replaced Guo Jia's position as chief strategist.

"But Liu Bei, I will never be your person. Cheng Yu's experience over the years made him look at people very viciously, "He was taken aback by your words, which shows that he does not dare to disobey you, and at the same time, from another angle, he has never regarded himself as your person." ”

"You're right. Cao Cao nodded, thinking deeply, "A few days ago, he tested Zhang Wenyuan with the same words, and his answer was, 'I am willing to be a pawn of Sikong and create a meritorious career together.'" "Then according to your opinion, Liu Bei..."Cheng Yu said tentatively. "Such a cowardly person can't bear to kill him. Cao Cao smiled, "But Yuan Shao is powerful, before the decisive battle, these unstable factors in Xuchang City need to be arranged..."

The next day, the favored spies came to report that Yuan Shao's brother Yuan Shu was arrogant and lascivious in Huainan, unpopular, and all the generals were against him. Poor Emperor Zhongguo has not been in office for a few days, and his power is already on the verge of collapse. Yuan Shu was preparing to abandon Huainan, pass through Xuzhou, go to Hebei, and vote for Yuan Shao.

"Yuan Shu is arrogant and arrogant, holding the seal and calling the emperor, but he is really a thief!" "Above the court, the young Emperor Han Xian can only pass the emperor's addiction in his mouth, "Cao Sikong, should inherit the righteousness and destroy the traitor!" "Hmm..."Cao Cao didn't even look at the emperor, and said to the Manchu Dynasty civil and military: "Who dares to lead the troops to attack Yuan Shu and share worries for the country?"

Everyone knew that Prime Minister Cao Cheng already had a suitable candidate in his heart, but he didn't answer, but one person straightened up and recommended himself.

"Qi Qi Sheng, Sikong, although he is not talented, he is willing to take the lead, share worries for the country, and destroy Yuan Shu!" Although Liu Bei lowered his head, his voice was full of confidence.
