Volume 1 The First Entry into the Three Kingdoms Chapter 80 Thinking Out of the City
As soon as he heard Liu Yi say that he wanted to discuss going out of the city, Zhang Fei hurriedly jumped up from the bed and came to Liu Yi's side.
"Lord, have you found a place?" Zhang Fei looked at Liu Yi with a look of hope.
Hearing this, Liu Yi raised his head and pointed at Yao Lie with his chin, "Don't ask me, ask Lao Yao!" β
"Lao Yao, don't hide it, tell it to everyone!"
Under the urging of everyone, Yao Lie pointed to a position in the sand table and said, "Everyone, please see"
The location that Yao Lie was pointing to was shown on the sand table to be the top of a hill.
"My lord, after these few days of investigation, I found that only this place is more suitable for camping."
"Oh? Why? Liu Yi asked puzzled.
"Lord, this hill is a dangerous mountain, with strange rocks, overgrown trees, and many natural barriers, it is really an excellent place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. And there is a clear spring on the mountain, which is just right for water! β
"There's such a nice place here, why haven't you found it before?"
Liu Yi was immediately attracted by the place Yao Lie said, and Zhang Fei and Guan Yu on the side were also full of curiosity.
"My lord doesn't know, there are only a few hidden paths leading to the top of this mountain, and people are very rare in normal times, if it weren't for my men to find an elderly hunter to lead the way, I'm afraid we wouldn't have found it there."
Zhang Fei on the side shouted a little puzzled when he heard this: "How can no one go to such a good place?" Is there any danger, Lao Yao, you haven't heard about it! β
Yao Lie heard Zhang Fei say that he might not be careful in inquiring, so he immediately stopped doing it.
"I've sent several groups of people to see it, and I've been there myself, there are no other people there except for a Taoist temple, if you don't believe me, I'll take you to see it later."
When Zhang Fei saw Yao Lie say this, he was really ready to go and see it in person, and that distrustful look made Yao Lie angry enough, and he was going to take Zhang Fei there on the spot.
Seeing this, Liu Yi on the side hurriedly grabbed the two who were competing.
"When are you two still here raising the bar? Hurry down and get ready, I'll go to meet Lord Lu early tomorrow morning and apply to leave the city!" β
As soon as the two heard that they might be able to leave the city tomorrow, they immediately didn't care about raising the bar, and happily ran out to prepare.
As soon as the two left, only Liu Yi and Guan Yu were left in the account.
"Yun Chang, you help me think of a move, how can I convince Master Lu to let us out of the city and not be very abrupt"
When Guan Yu heard this, he habitually stroked his two-foot long hair.
"My lord, I think that if you want Lord Lu to agree, we must have a justifiable reason!"
"Justified, justified!"
Liu Yi muttered what Guan Yu said, looked at the sand table in front of him, and fell into deep thought.
Early the next morning, Lu Zhi received a letter from there, saying that Gongsun Zhan had sent 20,000 troops to reinforce Zhongqiu City. Lu Zhi was overjoyed when he heard the news, and immediately sent someone to call Liu Yi.
At this time, Liu Yi and the others had just finished their work, and were thinking about how to go out of the city with Lu Zhi, when they suddenly heard a report from outside the tent.
"Lord Liu, my Lord Lu is affectionate!"
Liu Yi and others, who were discussing in the tent, looked at each other when they heard this.
"You wait outside the tent first, and my family will clean up and go with you!"
"No!"
The first person to react was Yao Lie, Yao Lie prevaricated the subordinates outside the tent, and then looked at Liu Yi with a suspicious expression.
"Lord, didn't our matter be known to Lord Lu in advance?" Yao Lie asked in a low voice.
Liu Yi shook his head when he heard this, and replied in a low voice, "No, we don't have any big moves, it's impossible to be known, besides, even if we are known, it's not a big deal, and we're not a mutiny!" β
After speaking, Liu Yi said to the three of them, "Yao Lie, you will accompany me to see Master Lu in a while, and the two of you are waiting for news here!" β
As soon as he heard Liu Yi say that he would only bring Yao Lie into the mansion, Zhang Fei on the side was not happy.
"Lord, I want to go too!"
Liu Yi heard the words and dissuaded, "You two are preparing for a good life at home, I didn't go to see Master Lu to break into the Longtan Tiger's Den, why did I bring so many people?" β
Zhang Fei still didn't follow what he said.
"Lord, Lord Lu is not a bad person, but Ji Mo and Zhang He can't say for sure, just you two go, I'm afraid that the lord will suffer!"
Liu Yi scolded with a smile: "Don't worry! Yao Lie is here again, at the end of the season, Zhang He didn't dare to make a mistake! β
Having said that, in fact, what Liu Yi thought in his heart was that he was afraid that Zhang Fei would quarrel with the two of them again when he went, after all, Zhang Fei had gone to the tent at the end of the season to scold several times in the past few days, and Liang Zi had already settled, so it was better not to take Zhang Fei at this time.
Zhang Fei saw that Liu Yi was so insistent, so he didn't say more, and wanted to tell Yao Lie a few words, but Yao Lie stopped him with his eyes.
Yao Lie thought to himself, "You are the most damn troublemaker, and you still have to tell me?" β
Without further ado, Liu Yi briefly teased and then took Yao Lie to Lu Zhi's mansion with the subordinates in Lu Zhi's mansion.
As soon as he entered the house, Liu Yi saw Lu Zhi enjoying the snow scene in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, his face changed from his previous worry, and he looked a lot ruddy.
"Xiaguan meets Lord Lu!" Liu Yi and Yao Lie saw Lu Zhi and made a salute.
"Hahaha~ Hurry up and excuse me, come, come, come, come with me to see this rime!" Lu Zhi said happily after seeing Liu Yi and the others.
Because the weather was relatively sunny two days ago, the temperature rose, the air was relatively humid, and the temperature suddenly dropped a lot last night, resulting in a large willow tree in the courtyard full of rime. The so-called rime is what the people often say about hanging trees, and the ice crystals formed on the branches of the tree when the water vapor is cold.
At this time, I saw that the white and crystal frost flowers were all over the branches, and under the sunlight, the silver light flashed, which was beautiful and moving.
Looking at the rime full of trees, Liu Yi couldn't help but think of when he was in the countryside in his previous life, he would take pictures and play under the rime with his parents every winter. I can't help but feel homesick.
After admiring the rime in the courtyard for a while, the three returned to the main hall of the mansion, and the servants had prepared hot tea for the three of them to ward off the cold.
"Sit down and drink tea and warm up!" Lu Zhi warmly entertained Liu Yi and the others.
Liu Yi and the others were not polite, and sat on the wooden chairs on both sides of the lobby and began to drink tea.
"Seeing that your lordship is in good spirits today, is there any happy event?"
Liu Yi took a few sips of tea, and after dispelling the chill on his body, he couldn't help but ask.
Lu Zhi, who was sitting on the main seat, heard this, gently put the teacup in his hand on the table, and then smiled mysteriously at Liu Yi.
"Lord Liu is really smart, I called you here today to have a happy event to tell you! Hahaha~"
Liu Yi was also immediately interested when he heard this, and after thinking for a while, he asked tentatively, "Could it be that there are reinforcements coming?" β
Lu Zhi suddenly restrained his laughter when he heard this, and looked at Liu Yi with some surprise.
"Lord Liu can predict the prophet!"
When Liu Yi saw Lu Zhi admit it, he suddenly felt a "chuckle" in his heart. But then he hurriedly made a surprised expression.
"My lord laughed, I guessed just now! I don't know where the reinforcements are coming? Liu Yi asked with a happy face.
In fact, Liu Yi knew that eighty percent of it was Gongsun Zhan's team, but he didn't know who came this time.
Lu Zhi was in a good mood at this time, as if he had forgotten the embarrassment at the dinner that day, and even began to laugh at Liu Yilai, "Why don't you guess again?" β
Liu Yi heard the ridicule in Lu Zhi's words, and replied with a smile: "Could it be that Lord Gongsun Chan came in person?" β
Lu Zhi laughed when he heard this, "Hahaha~ The northern Xianbei is frequent, he can't come out, okay, okay, I won't tease you, this time it's my other protΓ©gΓ©, Liu Bei!" β
As soon as they heard that it was Liu Bei, Liu Yi and Yao Lie glanced at each other, and couldn't help but curse in their hearts, "Why is he everywhere?" β
Lu Zhi saw that when the two of them heard that it was Liu Bei, his face was not very good, so he asked curiously, "Lord Liu, isn't it acquaintance with my protΓ©gΓ©?" β
Liu Yi smiled bitterly when he heard this, and replied, "It's not just acquaintance!" β
Liu Yi didn't hide it, and told Lu Zhi about the unpleasant experience with Liu Bei before, and the reason why Liu Yi dared to say it was because he knew that Lu Zhi's personality would not be difficult for himself.
"I see! This matter is easy to do, when the time comes, I will set up a banquet to mediate for the two of you, my protΓ©gΓ© I understand, and you are not the kind of person who cares! When the time comes, let's fight against the yellow scarf, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds! β
When Liu Yi heard this, he thought that if he didn't say the purpose of this trip, he might really not be able to get out of the city, so he hurriedly stood up and said respectfully to Lu Zhi.
"My lord doesn't know, but I don't have anything, mainly because my soldiers have a lot of opinions about Brother Xuande"
"Oh? Isn't that kid who looks black and stunned!? β
Liu Yi knew that Lu Zhi was talking about Zhang Fei, who almost fought with the end of the season that day, and nodded with a wry smile. And Yao Lie on the side heard Lu Zhi say that Zhang Feihei was stunned, and almost didn't laugh out loud, but fortunately, his psychological quality was better, so he held back.
"It's not me saying that your subordinates are really good at managing life, it's not okay to be so arrogant all the time!"
Liu Yi said helplessly when he heard this, "My brother is good at everything, but he has a bad temper, no, I don't know how to make trouble with General Ji's soldiers in the past two days?" He had a fateful friendship with his subordinates, and I can have this today thanks to his help at the beginning, so I can't discipline him deeply! Alas~"
After speaking, Liu Yi also pretended to have a helpless expression.
As soon as he heard that Zhang Fei had a bad relationship with the soldiers at the end of the season, Lu Zhi's face suddenly became a little unnatural.
"If that's the case, it won't be a problem for a long time!"
Liu Yi was overjoyed when he saw Lu Zhi say this, and hurriedly continued, "My lord, the so-called outside must first be at ease, if we are not in harmony internally, then what can we do to defend against external enemies?" β
Lu Zhi nodded when he heard this, "Hmm~ You're right, keep talking!" β
Liu Yi was slightly excited when he saw Lu Zhi on the set, and hurriedly said, "My lord, I have a plan to get rid of this worry!" β
"Oh? Tell me about it! β
"My lord, I am going to camp outside the city with my men, so that I don't have to worry about internal unity. And as long as it forms a horn with the army, then the lower officials can advance, attack, retreat, and defend..."
"No, no, it's too dangerous to camp outside the city, Lord Liu is here to help my rebels, how can I put you in danger!"
Hearing this, Liu Yi hurriedly explained, "Don't worry, my lord, I have found a treasure land that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as the communication between the two armies is smooth, I have the confidence to protect myself!" β
As soon as Lu Zhi heard this, his face suddenly changed slightly, and he looked at Liu Yi with a smile and said, "It seems that Lord Liu has been prepared for a long time!" β
Seeing that it was debunked by Lu Zhi, Liu Yi's face suddenly turned red.
"My lord is aware of everything, Xia Guan has indeed prepared for a long time, and I originally wanted to take the initiative to talk to the adult today, but I didn't expect to be summoned by the adult, and I hope the adult will not blame!"
Lu Zhi saw that Liu Yi admitted it so calmly after being exposed, and he admired him a little in his heart.
"That's it, since you have made up your mind, I can't stop it, but you have to promise me that you must pay attention to safety!"
"Thank you, sir!"
"But before you go, you have to tell me something!" Lu Zhi said with some embarrassment.
"My lord, please speak, the lower officials will know everything, and they will say everything!"
