Chapter 263: The Edict
Liu Bei listened to Zhang Fei's explanation a little sluggishly, and then fell into a long contemplation.
What did Zhang Jiao mean by those words? Everything he did was for himself? And the dream in his heart and my mission are actually the same! Is that why he thinks so highly of me?
A series of questions sprung up in Liu Bei's heart, but the person who could answer them for him passed away forever.
It's just that why do you feel guilty in your heart now? That person obviously killed his most beloved principal, even if he did it with the meaning of fulfilling himself, but ~, I Liu Bei would rather not want this kind of fulfillment!
Liu Bei tried his best to advise himself in his heart, but he still couldn't let go of Zhang Jiao's affairs.
I heard Zhang Fei continue: "Big brother, now that our Youzhou Yellow Turban matter is over, when I went to Yuyang, the military advisor wrote a battle report and submitted it to the alliance leader.
Before he died, Zhang Jiao said that he asked me to present his head to the alliance leader, saying that this would allow us to directly enter the Great Han Academy.
It's just ~, big brother, I didn't do it after all. The horn was hateful, but I felt that something that came from such a handout was a little awkward.
If our brothers want to enter the Great Han Academy, do we need to exchange Zhang Jiao's head for it? So I took it upon myself to find a place to bury him! ”
Zhang Fei said, and couldn't help but recall the scene at that time in his mind. Zhang Jiao would rather fight to get injured himself, but also pour the Taiping technique into Liu Bei's mind. At that time, he thought that Zhang Jiao was harming Liu Bei, but it was only after getting Zhang Jiao's explanation that he realized that his idea was wrong.
It was also because of this that the dagger that Zhang Fei swung only landed next to Zhang Jiao's neck in the end. Then he picked up the corpse of Zhang Jiao and found a place with a good scenery to bury him.
After listening to Zhang Fei's words, he saw Liu Bei nodding lightly and said, "Well, third brother, you are indeed right to do this." Although Zhang Jiao killed Principal Liu Yu, Cheng Pu, and Qingwei, the three principals, they died and hated each other.
What's more, he instilled the Taiping Technique into my brain before he died, which was really helpful to my future growth and to get rid of hidden dangers in my body.
With this great grace, it is true that nothing should be done to his corpse. ”
Sighing softly, Liu Bei closed his eyes a little tiredly, and couldn't help but recall his and Zhang Jiao's experiences in his mind.
"Zhang Jiao, Zhang Jiao, I didn't expect you to die so simply, so much so that I lost your great favor!
In that case, then I will fulfill my wish for you, and end my mission by the way! ”
……
In Luoyang City, Cao Cao was pacing back and forth in his compound, his brows furrowed, and he looked anxious.
"What's going on with this Liu Bei? He said that as soon as the matter was settled, he would call me back. But now, days have passed, and he hasn't even replied to me. Could it be that he had already died at the hands of Zhang Jiao? ”
Thinking of this, Cao Cao hurriedly shook his head and threw this thought out of his mind.
"No, then Liu Bei's martial arts are not weak, and his body is very strong and weird. Even if he can't beat Zhang Jiao, he should still be able to run!
But if he escapes, he should call me back. Could it be that he still hasn't gotten rid of Zhang Jiao? ”
Cao Cao was thinking about this, and Cao Ren, who was waiting on the side, couldn't help but step forward and persuade when he saw this: "Big brother, if you are really worried about that Liu Bei, then call him back and confirm it?" Why bother with this alone? ”
"You don't understand, if Liu Bei is now in a critical stage of fighting with Zhang Jiao, then a phone call from me will definitely distract him. If I let him hurt because of me, then my sin will be too great! ”
Cao Ren was embarrassed, and couldn't understand why his eldest brother cared so much about this person named Liu Bei. He's seen this person before, and there's nothing special about it, it's just that his body is a little faster, and he has a little more ghost ideas than others!
Seeing that Cao Cao was still pacing back and forth there, Cao Ren suddenly moved a stool over, and then pressed Cao Cao on the stool.
"Big brother, you can't do this. Even if you break your leg, Liu Bei should have an accident, he will still have an accident! So instead of sitting here and worrying about it, let's think about how to solve those yellow turban thieves outside the city!
Don't forget, the army left behind by Zhang Jiao is still outside our Luoyang City! ”
Cao Ren said earnestly, and saw Cao Cao calm down and said, "Without Zhang Jiao, those people outside the city don't have to worry. Tomorrow, all I have to do is have the Royal Self-Defense Force stationed in the attic of the city gate to snipe at the enemy, and then send the people of the Roadhawk Clan to fight with me.
As far as the weapons of those anti-thieves are concerned, they are simply too far behind us. If it weren't for the horns to support them, they would have been able to come to my Luoyang feet? ”
"But big brother, don't forget that there is also a young man named Zhang Yan in that group, and his combat power is not weaker than that of big brother!"
Cao Cao nodded approvingly.
"Hmmm! This is true, that Zhang Yan is indeed a talent, but it is a pity that Mingzhu secretly invested in his Yellow Turban University. Otherwise, I really want to take him under my command! ”
Seeing this, Cao Ren said with a slight embarrassment: "Big brother, your old mistake has been made again." As soon as I saw the talent I liked, I looked like I wanted to take it under my command! Liu Bei is like this, and so is this Zhang Yan! ”
"Uh~! Hahaha! Have it? I think it's okay, after all, talent is the primary productive force. No one will feel much! ”
Cao Cao scratched his head a little embarrassed.
And at this moment, someone suddenly came from outside the door.
"Report to the young master, there is a father-in-law Zhang outside the door who asks to see him. It is said that it brought the oracle of the alliance leader! ”
"Hmmm! Zhang Rang? It seems that the alliance leader has something urgent to find me, otherwise he would not have sent Zhang Rang to pass the word. ”
Cao Cao said, asking his subordinates to quickly invite Zhang Rang to the living room. And he took Cao Ren to clean up his clothes and came to meet Zhang Rang.
"Hehe~! Director Zhang is here, and the students are disappointed, so please forgive your sins in person.
I don't know what important things the alliance leader has, but I actually asked you to come and talk to me? ”
"President Cao doesn't have to be polite, the alliance leader has something urgent to find you. I specially ordered me to take you to discuss important matters! Please also ask Chairman Cao to clean up briefly, and then immediately follow me into the cabinet to discuss important matters! ”
"Hiss~! Is it so urgent? Father-in-law Zhang traveled all the way, didn't he stay to drink a cup of tea and walk? ”
"President Cao said with a smile, the alliance leader's matter is big, how can our family still have the kung fu to drink tea! You'd better come with me! ”
Hearing this, Cao Cao knew that Liu Hong's matter of finding himself was definitely not trivial, otherwise he would not let Zhang Rang pass himself into the cabinet in such a hurry.
So Cao Cao didn't say a word, and got up directly and followed Zhang Rang to the cabinet conference room. I saw that Liu Hong had already sat on the first seat and waited for a long time.
"Mengde, you can be regarded as here. Take a look, this is a battle report from Youzhou! The three brothers of the Zhang family in the Yellow Turban University actually all fell into the hands of Liu Bei, what do you think of this? ”
"What! All three brothers of the Zhang family are dead? ”
Cao Cao took the battle report from Zhang Rang's hand in disbelief, and carefully read the contents of it several times.
Hiss~! This Liu Bei can! Zhang Jiao, who even I was helpless, actually died in his hands. Looks like I'm underestimating this person!
It's a pity that the specific process of Liu Bei's killing of Zhang Jiao is not written on it. I don't know how he killed Zhang Jiao! It's easy to say that if it's used to use poison, but if it's by virtue of martial arts~, then it's terrible!
Thinking of this, Cao Cao suddenly said respectfully to Liu Hong: "Congratulations to the alliance leader, I am happy to have a strong foreign aid." Liu Bei was able to exterminate all the three brothers of the Zhang family, which is enough to show that this person has outstanding skills in Wen Taowu and Wu Strategy. With this person in charge of Youzhou for the alliance leader, there will definitely be no mistakes! ”
"Hehe~! Mengde, what you said is true. Liu Bei almost collapsed the entire Yellow Turban force in Youzhou with the power of one school alone. The first offender, the three brothers of the Zhang family, was killed. This is truly remarkable!
But you're looking at what is written in these two letters, and I want to hear what you think. ”
Liu Hong said, and asked Zhang Rang on the side to hand Cao Cao two letters again.
After reading it, Cao Cao's expression changed, and he hurriedly knelt on the ground. The letter paper in his hand fell, and he saw that the tail money on it was stamped with the seals of the two colleges and universities in Shanggu and Beiping.
"Alliance leader, don't listen to these villains! Liu Bei's students have heard of it more or less, although there were some Meng Lang before.
But since he went to college, he has been working hard. It not only solved the century-old disaster in Youzhou, but also made great contributions in this Yellow Turban Rebellion. I think this is someone who looks at him unpleasantly and maliciously slanders him.
The words of this Shanggu University and Youbeiping University are absolutely not credible! ”
I saw Liu Hong with his eyes closed, and said expressionlessly: "Meng De, I don't know if someone really deliberately injured him here." But there's one thing that I'm really concerned about!
He, Liu Bei, actually dared to requisition the traitors of the Yellow Turban University without my consent.
Although it is said that the Campus Autonomy Law does not clearly state that other colleges and universities need to surrender prisoners, but today's situation is special, he is a thief in the Yellow Turban University, Liu Bei actually requisitioned it so rashly, do you say that there will be any hidden secrets in this? ”
"This~! The leader of the alliance was angry, and it was mentioned in the Youzhou War Report that starting from the right Beiping University, the five colleges and universities to the north were all captured by the Yellow Turban traitors.
This Liu Bei may want to use these people to rebuild those schools. After all, the alliance leader, you secretly instructed him to let him take charge of the entire Youzhou army! He doesn't have enough troops now, so it's inevitable that he will fight these captives. ”
Cao Cao tried his best to exonerate Liu Bei, but Liu Hong still closed his eyes expressionlessly, and his fingers lightly tapped on the table in front of him.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
Suddenly, Liu Hong opened his eyes, looked at Cao Cao and said, "Meng De, you said that Liu Bei has made great contributions this time, should we reward him with something?" Why don't you hire him to study in a Han Academy? ”
When Cao Cao heard this, he was a little puzzled why Liu Hong suddenly changed from wanting to punish Liu Bei to now wanting to reward Liu Bei.
However, thinking of Liu Hong's previous arrangement for Liu Bei, he couldn't help but say: "This is good, but if this is the case, then won't your previous plan to let him be used as a foreign aid will be in vain?" ”
Seeing Liu Hong shaking his head lightly and sighing: "Liu Bei is too witty, it's better to stay by your side and watch it." Otherwise, I'm afraid of a catastrophe!
Over there in Youzhou, I'd better send someone else to watch. Anyway, the yellow turban thieves there have been eliminated, and there is no need for any powerful people to watch them! ”
Listening to Liu Hong's words, Cao Cao's heart tightened, and he secretly sweated for Liu Bei.
This is obviously an attempt to put Liu Bei under house arrest in Luoyang! But it's no wonder, who let Liu Bei requisition the Yellow Turban thieves without the consent of the alliance leader! It's just that~!
"Alliance leader, is that the matter about Liu Bei's requisition of the Yellow Turban captives just settled?
After all, I think there are some talents in the Yellow Turban colleges and universities who can recruit and fight, if these people can be used by my whole school alliance, it can not only weaken the power of the remnants of the Yellow Turbans, but also strengthen our strength, so the best of both worlds, isn't it beautiful? ”
"Oh! It seems that Meng De, you have fallen in love with a certain general in the Yellow Turban Thieves? ”
Liu Hong looked at Cao Cao with a smile on his face, and saw that the latter immediately knelt down on one knee and said: "Everything under my subordinates is for the future of my whole school alliance, and I definitely don't dare to go the slightest!" ”
"Well, I know you're doing this for the sake of my whole school. As long as you can ensure the loyalty of the general, then I will allow you to subdue him! ”
When Cao Cao heard this, he was immediately overjoyed and said, "Yes!" Thank you, Alliance Leader! The subordinates must make sure that nothing goes wrong, and then they will be surrendered! ”
"Well, you can just do it yourself."
Liu Hong said, waving his hand, signaling that Cao Cao could retreat. So Cao Cao immediately got up to say goodbye, and after Cao Cao left, Liu Hong immediately asked Zhang Rang on the side to draw up the next edict, and announced that Liu Bei would leave for Luoyang immediately. As for his two brothers, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei also got up together.
Then Liu Hong summoned Wang Yue and asked him to leave immediately, and rushed to Youzhou with this edict to hand it over to Liu Bei.
After everything was in order, Liu Hong sat on the chair in the conference room and said, "Liu Bei, you have too many secrets. The three brothers of the Zhang family actually died at your hands, this matter is too strange.
That Zhang Bao, Zhang Liang's ability is not weak, and Zhang Jiao's combat power is amazing. How did you kill them?
Looks like I'm going to have to call you over and take a good look at what makes you special. So as not to cause trouble for my son Liu Xie's future accession to the throne! ”
……
Cao Cao returned to his Cao family compound, and then immediately took out his mobile phone and called Liu Bei.
"This Liu Bei is really unkind, he has obviously gotten rid of the danger, but he has never replied to me. I want to give him another time! Look at me, I have to talk about him! ”
Cao Cao was talking when the phone was suddenly connected, and he heard Liu Bei's voice on the other end of the phone: "President Cao, who made you so angry and want you to talk to him?" ”
"Who else, it's you! Obviously said that he would call me back as soon as the matter was resolved, but look at it, how many days have passed? You didn't even bring me a message! If I hadn't seen the battle report from your Youzhou from the alliance leader, I would still be here to worry about you! ”
"Uh~! With President Law's concern, this matter is indeed what I did wrong. But I don't want to do that, because I've just woken up. I just wanted to call you before that, but I couldn't call you! ”
Liu Bei said with some embarrassment, and Cao Cao immediately asked him curiously how Zhang Jiao died.
And Liu Bei also knew that someone would definitely ask him this question, so he had already thought of the rhetoric before this, and he just took it out at this moment and slowly explained it to Cao Cao.
