Chapter 77, Xiamen has no city marquis
"Call you city gates to me!" Liu Bei suppressed the anger in his heart and said. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Your Excellency, is the new Captain of the City Gate?" A soldier came to inquire.
"Not bad! Are you the Marquis of the City Gate of Xiamen? Liu Bei asked in a cold voice.
"His subordinates are just a small commander of Xiamen, how dare he be the marquis of the city gate?" The commander said with a smile.
"Where is the city gate? Tell him to come to me. ”
"Back to my lord, there is no city gate in Xiamen." So said the commander.
At this time, Liu Bei was stunned, "There is no city gate?" Why is there no city gate? ”
"Back to my lord, the summer gate has never been opened, so in order to save manpower, the prime minister only transferred 1,000 people here to do daily patrols. As for the Marquis of the City Gate, he has always been the captain of the City Gate. So, strictly speaking, the Lord is the gate of our city. The commander explained.
Liu Bei finally couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, and said angrily, "It's too much to deceive people!" ”
He could completely guess that Fang Wen did this on purpose.
Let him, the captain of the city gate, also serve as the marquis of the city gate, so doesn't he have to come to this summer gate every day to be on an errand? In this way, in addition to the title of captain of the city gate, he received an extra thousand stones, what is the difference between him and the city gate marquis.
At this moment, in the Prime Minister's mansion, Fang Wenzheng laughed.
"What's it that makes you so happy?" Cai Yan asked.
"I thought of Liu Bei's deflated appearance." Fang Wen said with a smile.
"What the hell is going on?" Diao Chan was curious.
"I originally appointed Liu Bei as a doctor in Taizhong, but Liu Bei invited himself to be the captain of the city gate. He thought I didn't know his intentions. But how did he know that all the soldiers under my command were blood deeds and loyal to me, how could he command? At the moment, he must be blowing his beard and glaring. Fang Wen laughed and said.
"Haha, husband is really bad." Cai Yan said.
"This is called wisdom, how can it be called loss." Diao Chan said.
"You're the one who protects him." Cai Yan said and started a fight with Diao Chan.
At this moment, Liu Bei did blow his beard and glare, he saw that there was no captain of the city gate in Xiamen, so he said to the commander of the thousand commanders, "From today on, you will say the city gate marquis of Xiamen." ”
As a result, the commander said, "Back to your lordship, the marquis of the city gate needs the order of the prime minister, otherwise he will not count." ”
When Liu Bei heard this, he trembled with anger. A small commander dared to disobey his orders!
Zhang Fei saw Liu Bei's anger, so he walked up and slapped the commander of the thousand, "My eldest brother asked you to be the marquis of the city gate, that is to promote you, it is really shameless for you." ”
The commander of the thousand was not shocked and said, "The subordinates are not promoted by others, but by the villain's strength." Who is the marquis of the city gate is also not something that can be decided by an adult, which requires the resignation of the prime minister. This is a rule, and no one should break it. ”
Then the commander said, "Although I am only a commander of a thousand, I am not something that you unofficial and unemployed people can beat!" You are simply unruly and lawless! ”
"You! I, Zhang Fei, will be rude to you, what will you do? Zhang Fei raised his palms high when he heard this. I want to do it again.
But the commander is right there now, not afraid at all. If Zhang Fei dared to do anything to him again, he would report the matter to Fang Wen. Let Fang Wen arrest Zhang Fei.
"Third brother, step aside!" Liu Bei suppressed his anger, he knew that what the commander said was right, the rules could not be violated. Similarly, Liu Bei didn't want to make a big deal about it. Otherwise, it will not affect him well.
"You're good, you're all good!" Liu Bei said angrily.
In the end, Liu Bei and the three of them could only return to the city gate captain's mansion angrily.
"Big brother, are we just going to forget it?" Zhang Fei said indignantly.
Liu Bei smiled and said, "Don't worry, didn't those city gate marquis say that they didn't dare to leave their posts without permission?" Then let's see if they really dare not leave their posts without permission. If they make the slightest mistake, I can remove them. When the time comes, I ask Your Majesty to appoint you as the Marquis of the City Gate. Then the three of us brothers will slowly take control of this army. ”
Guan Yu listened and nodded, "Big brother, this plan is good. ”
"Big brother's method is good, but it's too time-consuming. If you want me to say, the eldest brother will tell His Majesty about this directly. Let Your Majesty call the shots for us. Zhang Fei said.
Liu Bei shook his head, "It's really not good to trouble Your Majesty for such a small matter." Besides, these people have done nothing wrong, they are faithful to their duty, what can we accuse them? Moreover, His Majesty may not be able to make decisions for us. Now although Fang Wen is the prime minister on the surface, he has more power than the Son of Heaven. Sometimes His Majesty has to listen to him. This Fang Wen's name is Han Xiang, but in fact it is another Dong Zhuo. ”
"However, the people in Luoyang City seem to support him very much." Guan Yu said.
That's where his brilliance lies. He didn't know how to get by and win the hearts of the people. But this can't change the fact that he is a thief. ”
Liu Bei was very helpless in his heart, showing kindness to the people was exactly what he wanted to do. And this is exactly what he wants to do to win the world. But now that his idea has not been implemented, someone has done it before him. How can this not make him helpless?
It's like the path you want to take is taken by others, and in the end you end up with no way out, isn't it sad?
It's just that Liu Bei didn't give up the plot in his heart because of this.
In the days that followed, Liu Bei inspected the various city gates every day, hoping to find the handle of those city gate marquis.
Originally, Liu Bei planned to find a servant to do this. But as long as the people heard that they were going to work in the city gate captain's mansion, they all shook their heads, and they didn't go no matter how much money they were given.
Therefore, so far, there are only three Liu Bei in the city gate captain's mansion, and there is not even a cook man. This made Liu Bei and the three of them very distressed.
In addition, what made Liu Bei even more helpless was that he had been inspecting the various city gates for so long, and he had never caught the slightest bit of the handle of those city gate marquis.
This made Liu Bei anxious, and he was impatient if he continued like this. At the same time, I was also amazed in my heart, the discipline of Fang Wen's army was too strict.
On this day, Liu Bei finally lost his patience, and he said to Guan Yu, "Second brother, you will go out of the city this afternoon and go to Gongsun Zhan." As long as I find the land protector, it proves that I am a member of the royal family. Let's leave Luoyang, only by leaving here, can we really make contributions. ”
"Big brother, I've been waiting for your words for a long time. I've run out of patience these days. Zhang Fei said.
"Big brother, don't worry, I will definitely find you the land as soon as possible." Guan Yu was also excited, he was finally leaving Luoyang City, it was really not a taste to stay in Luoyang City these days.
"Second brother, I wish you success." Zhang Fei said and raised his wine glass to toast Guan Yu.
