Chapter 993: Zhang Song's Idea
When Zhang Song went to Xiangyang, Liu Yu hosted a banquet for him and Fazheng. That's pretty much the biggest spec. Dian Wei and Lu Bu, these troubled people, immediately pulled Zhang Song to drink, what brother is good, I am free, you do it, you can find any messy excuses. Zhang Song suffered deeply, if he hadn't had a good amount of alcohol, he would have been drunk by Dian Wei.
Zhang Song is not without gains, at least he still learned some of the tricks of Dian Wei.
Zhang Song did what he did, which made Liu Bei at a loss. Zhang Song said that Liu Bei could be arbitrary, but Liu Bei dared to be arbitrary. Zhang Song has done it, and he Liu Bei will definitely do it too.
Liu Bei drank the wine in the cup in this way, so that the Yizhou scholars learned a trick. Originally, persuading wine at a banquet was a science, and the amount of alcohol consumed by people was limited, so they would not dare to drink more. Those who persuade drinkers are regarded as bad people by others. But Zhang Song can let Liu Bei drink it obediently, and he doesn't have to be a bad person, it's really high.
After drinking this glass of wine with Liu Bei, Zhang Song stopped talking and sat in his place without saying a word. Only Fa Zheng knew that Zhang Song was hanging Liu Bei, and secretly laughed in his heart.
The banquet was very boring. Liu Zhang didn't know how to liven up the atmosphere, and as the lord, he didn't have to do such a thing at all. But his subordinates looked cold, and they didn't want to get involved with Liu Bei at all, so this banquet didn't take long to disperse.
Liu Zhang is still more intimate, he ordered someone to arrange Liu Bei's subordinates, and this task was of course handed over to Liu Zhang's son-in-law Fei Guan Fei Bingbo to do.
As for Liu Bei, he was left behind by Liu Zhang, and he wanted to catch up with Liu Bei, and by the way, he said something between brothers of the same clan.
Liu Zhang took Liu Bei to his room and waved away all his entourage. Liu Bei was very puzzled by Liu Zhang's actions, did Liu Zhang have any secret words to say to himself? In terms of his identity, Liu Bei is really not the kind of person who Liu Zhang can tell the truth.
Puzzled, Liu Bei still waited for Liu Zhang to reveal the answer.
Liu Zhang and Liu Bei sat opposite each other, and there was only a plate of fruit and tea in front of their table.
There was no one around, Liu Zhang said with a wry smile: "Xuande, my majesty is powerless, let Xuande you be wronged." ”
"Ji Yu, if you say this, I will be embarrassed. I think that I, Liu Bei, am a lost dog, and I am content to have a place to live, how can I mind such a trivial matter. "When it comes to language ability, Liu Bei can't be compared to ten Liu Zhang. Liu Bei's attitude was very modest, but he said that he had been wronged, and the art of speaking was really powerful.
Liu Zhang was a little embarrassed, his subordinates did something wrong, and he was very embarrassed to be the boss, but what could he do, it wasn't that he couldn't do anything to these subordinates.
"Xuande, I originally wanted you to be stationed in Chengdu, but in the current situation, there may be no way." Liu Zhang said something that surprised Liu Bei and regretted it.
Liu Bei really hated it to death, Liu Zhang actually wanted to let himself be stationed in Chengdu, which was a great thing, but he didn't expect it to be there now. If Liu Bei knew that Liu Zhang had planned to do so before, he wouldn't have been able to act like he had just done.
"Ji Yu, Chengdu is an important place in Yizhou, although you and my brother have a deep relationship, but in the eyes of outsiders, no matter how I say it, I am an outsider in Yizhou, and it is not appropriate to be stationed in Chengdu. Ji Yu, you don't have to be difficult, just find a small county town and arrange all my brothers, don't let them freeze and starve. Liu Bei's attitude was very modest.
This made Liu Zhang very moved, seeing that Xuande has not changed, as before, he always thinks about others first, and he doesn't even mention his own requirements.
Liu Bei naturally didn't have to make too many requests, because he knew that Liu Zhang would definitely not treat him badly, and if he made too many demands, it would definitely cause the opposite effect. Liu Zhang can arrange whatever he wants, what Liu Bei needs now is to stand firm, and plan for the future later.
"Xuande, don't worry, I will naturally arrange it properly." Liu Zhang said with a smile.
Liu Bei and Liu Zhang continued to talk about the old things, and they were both very happy when they recalled. Liu Zhang hadn't said so many previous words to a person for a long time, and he was quite happy in his heart. It's just that Liu Bei is a little impatient, Liu Zhang said so much, and he didn't say anything about Liu Bei's actual arrangements. Liu Bei's time is very precious, and he doesn't want to waste too much time.
In fact, Liu Zhang really doesn't know how to arrange Liu Bei, after all, now that Yizhou has been divided by many local forces in Yizhou, arranging Liu Bei to some better counties and counties will definitely cause a backlash from local forces. Liu Zhang didn't want the stable Yizhou to become turbulent, and he couldn't speak for a while.
After saying a lot, Liu Zhang and Liu Bei didn't know what to say.
At this time, someone outside informed Zhang Song that he wanted to see him.
"Zhang Beijia came to ask for a meeting, there must be something important to discuss, so I won't bother much. I took my leave. Liu Bei finally didn't have to continue to argue with Liu Zhang, anyway, if he continued to talk, Liu Bei knew that Liu Zhang would not have any arrangements.
Liu Zhang was thinking of looking for Zhang Song to come over and ask how to arrange Liu Bei, at this moment Liu Bei was going to take the first step, Liu Zhang happened to get off the donkey down the slope, and said with a smile: "Xuande, you have also worked hard, go down and rest first." I've already made arrangements, come here, take Xuande down to rest. ”
One of Liu Zhang's subordinates immediately came in and took Liu Bei out.
Liu Bei walked out of Liu Zhang's room and happened to meet Zhang Song, who was about to come in. Liu Bei's face was very soft and he saluted Zhang Song, and Zhang Song immediately reciprocated a courtesy, he didn't want to take advantage of Liu Bei.
As soon as Zhang Song came in, Liu Zhang hurriedly said, "Ziqiao, you came just in time." ”
"The lord must be worried about how to arrange Liu Xuande." Zhang Song seemed to be an unpredictable prophet.
Liu Zhang was overjoyed by Zhang Song's reaction, and hurriedly said: "Ziqiao, the entire Yizhou belongs to you with the highest talent, and I suddenly thought of the difficulties of the pastor of Benzhou. Presumably Ziqiao, you have already thought of a countermeasure. ”
Zhang Song was very disdainful, if Liu Zhang could arrange Liu Bei's scourge, he wouldn't have to stay in Yizhou all the time. However, Zhang Song felt that Liu Zhang still had some benefits, and he didn't dare to arrange Liu Bei messily, so he didn't disrupt Zhang Song's plan.
"My lord, I'm not talking about you. Liu Bei is a hero, looking at his past, he is definitely a hero who is unwilling to be subordinate. I see that Yizhou is prosperous, but in fact, there is an undercurrent, once it is not operated properly, it will be chaotic and taken advantage of by outsiders. Zhang Song gave Liu Zhang a good talk first.
"Ziqiao, there are people outside who are afraid of Xuande's talent and make up rumors to slander him. Xuande's personality, as early as many years ago, Benzhou Mu was clear, and he was definitely a benevolent and righteous gentleman. Liu Zhang was a little puzzled, Liu Bei has always had a good reputation, how could he be a hero?
Zhang Song really wanted to dig out Liu Zhang's brain to see if there was straw in it, and a hero like Liu Bei had become a benevolent and righteous gentleman in Liu Zhang's mouth.
"My lord, let's not talk about this. But has the lord ever thought about what will happen after Liu Bei enters Yizhou? Today in the hall, there are already people who are very dissatisfied with Liu Bei. If the lord is not well arranged, it may be difficult to clean up. Zhang Song didn't plan to talk nonsense with Liu Zhang about Liu Bei's personality, so he went straight to the topic.
Liu Zhang said in embarrassment: "The pastor of Benzhou is also worried. I was looking for Ziqiao to come over, hoping to give me a good solution. ”
"My lord, your thoughts for the sake of the overall situation of Yizhou are very clear and admirable. I just hope that the lord can inform the next voice next time, so as not to catch the inferior people off guard. Zhang Song took the opportunity to complain about Liu Zhang.
Liu Zhang now felt that he was a little too hasty to find Liu Bei, so he promised: "Benzhou Mu will definitely discuss it with Ziqiao in the future." ”
Zhang Song knew that Liu Zhang's words were in vain, after all, as the head of the people, if he had to negotiate with his subordinates about everything, it would be a waste.
"Ziqiao, do you have a good plan?" What Liu Zhang hopes most now is that Zhang Song can deal with Liu Bei's problem.
Zhang Song said in a deep voice: "Lord, if Liu Bei is so easy to deal with. I won't say that much in the next moment. ”
"Is that so?" Liu Zhang's mood sank suddenly.
Zhang Song asked tentatively: "Did the lord have any arrangements for Liu Bei before?" ”
Liu Zhang said directly: "Originally, the Xuande Department was arranged in Chengdu, but Zhao Wei and Li Yi had such an attitude, and it was not easy for Benzhou Mu to arrange. ”
Zhang Song was almost thundered, you Liu Zhang is not stupid, but stupid. Liu Bei is a very dangerous hero, you actually arranged for him to be stationed in Chengdu, didn't you think that Liu Bei would rob you of your position. Put an outsider in Chengdu, the most important city in Yizhou, and only think of this when the brain is missing a few tendons. Liu Bei is a hero, his subordinates are all some tigers and wolves, and Chengdu is some troops who have not experienced much battle, can they resist Liu Bei's invasion?
Fortunately, Liu Zhang did not continue his stupid decision, and Zhang Song was able to breathe a sigh of relief.
Zhang Song thought about it in his heart, and after integrating his previous calculations, he said with a smile: "I heard the arrangement of the lord just now, and there is a way to get the best of both worlds." ”
"Ziqiao, come on." Liu Zhang is very happy, as long as he can solve the problem.
Zhang Song said with a smile: "The lord wants Liu Bei to be stationed in Chengdu City, it is nothing more than wanting to share the same clan with Liu Bei. At the same time, Liu Bei can be used as an arm to help in case of emergency. Then the lord can leave Liu Bei in Chengdu City. ”
Liu Zhang was very satisfied with Zhang Song's thoughtfulness, worthy of being his right-hand man, and thought of everything he thought in his heart.
It's just that Liu Zhang said: "Ziqiao, if Xuande is stationed in Chengdu, these other people will definitely have opinions." ”
"My lord, you misunderstood what I meant. The meaning of leaving Liu Bei in Chengdu is that the lord can prepare a gorgeous mansion in Chengdu for Liu Bei to settle down in Chengdu. As for his subordinates, there is no need to be stationed in Chengdu. Other arrangements may apply. Zhang Song said with a smile.
"Where should I arrange it?" Liu Zhang continued to ask.
Zhang Song said with a smile: "My lord, my Yizhou has always been threatened by the southern barbarians. Now that the cold winter is about to pass, Nanban is about to start invading my Yizhou again. I, Yizhou, have nothing to do about it. Now that Liu Bei has arrived in Yizhou, isn't it just right to solve the big trouble in my Yizhou. Liu Bei's command is full of talents, and he will definitely be able to repel the Nanban. If Liu Bei's subordinates make military achievements, then Liu Bei will have the right to speak in Yizhou, and the big guys will treat Liu Bei as their own person, and the lord can also get what he wants, isn't it beautiful. ”
Liu Zhang was moved by Zhang Song, Nanban has always been a difficult problem in Yizhou, every Nanban invasion will give Liu Zhang a headache, and Liu Bei's strength is good, and he should be able to solve this problem as Zhang Song said.
"But Xuande has always loved soldiers like sons, and he won't be separated from the troops." Liu Zhang said a little embarrassed.
Zhang Song wanted to scold Liu Zhang, if Liu Bei went to pacify Nanban together, wouldn't it be a better thing.
Zhang Song resisted the urge to scold and said, "Lord, if Liu Bei wants to share weal and woe with the soldiers, the lord can't stop him. After all, once the lord stops it, then Liu Bei's reputation may be over. ”
"This ......" Liu Zhang hesitated a little.
Zhang Song stopped talking at this point, and whether Liu Zhang should follow his suggestion or not depends on what Liu Zhang means.
Liu Zhang finally asked weakly: "Where should the Xuande troops be placed?" ”
Zhang Song knew that Liu Zhang had already made a decision, so he said his idea: "My lord, I feel that it is the best choice to arrange Liu Bei's department in Zhudi City. ”
"Zhu Di City? Well, that's a nice arrangement. "Liu Zhang knows this Zhu Di City.
Every time the southern barbarians came to invade, Liu Zhang's army concentrated in Zhudi City and used it as a base to deal with the southern barbarians. If Zhu Di City is lost, the entire Yizhou will fall into the poisonous hands of the barbarians.
"Then arrange Ziqiao, what you say." Liu Zhang finally relented.
Zhang Song sighed: "The lord is wise." ”
Zhang Song thought to himself: Whether Liu Bei stays in Chengdu or goes with the army to pacify the Nanban, neither of them is a good result. Losing the troops, Liu Bei is a fish on the board, and Zhang Song can do whatever he wants to Liu Bei when the time comes. If Liu Bei goes to pacify the Nanban. Hehe, Zhang Song doesn't think that Liu Bei can handle Nanban in such a complicated terrain, and even a bad one may give his life there.
Thinking of this, Zhang Song's mood was very happy, he had already settled on Liu Bei, and Liu Bei almost had only these two choices.
"Liu Bei, I see how you choose." Zhang Song seemed to want to see how Liu Bei chose.
