The two sides of the martial arts training field were dressed in battle, and they saw Zhao Yun wearing silver rotten armor, stepping off the white horse, holding a spear, and looking at Liu Shi with burning eyes. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Liu Shishi wore a purple gold helmet, wore gold chain mail, rode a Qingcong horse, and held an overlord gun.

The two glanced at each other, stepped off the horse, and rushed towards each other, only to hear a bang, Zhao Yun's body shook twice, stepped off the horse and took a step back, Liu Shi just shook his upper body, and his strength was evident from this.

Zhang Fei yelled: "Zilong! Don't compete with him, just knock him down with your quick gun. ”

Zhao Yun didn't make a sound, just turned the horse, and the two turned their horses' heads again and rushed to each other, only to see Zhao Yun's gun like a poisonous snake coming out of the letter, straight to Liu Shi's throat. Liu Shi flashed, the spear came out, the tip of Zilong's spear shrank, and stretched out again, like a coiled snake nodding wildly, and the spear did not leave the vital point. Liu Shi didn't dare to be careless, the guns came and went, and the two sides were as anxious as the wind and as fast as electricity. In the blink of an eye, it has been more than 300 rounds, although Liu Shi's breath is long, and by now, the two of them are already sweating like a spring on their foreheads, and they don't know whether they win or lose.

Liu Bei looked at the sky and said, "Brother Shi! How about Zilong's stop? ”

Liu Shi laughed and said, "Okay! It's rare to have such an opponent, please take me again! After speaking, he raised the spear, his momentum rose sharply, and he locked Zhao Yun's body, only to hear a loud bang, Zhao Yun's horse took three steps back, and Liu Shi also took two steps back.

Liu Shi glanced at the other party again, laughed, and then turned over and dismounted.

Zhao Yun also followed Po and fell off the horse, and arched his hand to Liu Shigong and said: "Hou Ye's strength is not like ordinary people, Yun admires." ”

Liu Shi said with a smile: "Zilong's marksmanship is very fast, his breath is calm, his face is not shocked, and he should hide his back hand." Liu Shi also admired it, and he had time to fight again. After speaking, he walked towards Liu Bei.

Zhang Fei sighed: "Brother Shi, you are really a weird person, I haven't seen you for ten years, you can grow to such a point, even Zilong can't beat you, my old Zhang is still not convinced, but he can't win, so what's the matter!" ”

Everyone laughed when they heard this. This Zhang Fei is really interesting, only Guan Yu's face is solemn.

Liu Shi asked why he didn't see Cao Jun.

Liu Bei said: "I am familiar with Cao Mengde, I have met him in the Kwantung Alliance, and I have been taken care of by him. When I first came here, I saluted first and then soldiers. Therefore, he wrote a letter to Meng De to persuade him to withdraw from the army. Somehow, this Cao Mengde actually agreed to withdraw his troops, and he had withdrawn ten days ago. I wanted to wait for you to return to the plains after the marriage, but Tao Xuzhou forcibly retained Xuzhou and wanted to give Xuzhou to the eldest brother. Naturally, the eldest brother could not agree. Colloquial saying: A gentleman does not take away people's love and things. This Xuzhou is also the blood of Tao Yuanjun for many years, how can it be taken away? Seeing that the eldest brother insisted on refusing, Tao Envoy Jun gave 5,000 Danyang elite soldiers to him, and let the eldest brother stay in a small city called Xiaopei next to Xuzhou, and all the expenses were provided by Xuzhou, and recommended the eldest brother as the assassin of Yuzhou. I heard that the eldest brother was going to hold a wedding for you here, so he gave it to you with this mansion. The eldest brother was so enthusiastic that he had to resign from the post of plain minister to the eldest brother of Gongsun. ”

Liu Shidao: "In this way, I still have to go to see Tao Xuzhou, thank him for his kindness?" ”

Liu Bei said: "It should be so, but now Tao Xuzhou is not in Yancheng, and it is not too late to thank him when he returns." ”

Several people sat for a while, and Liu Bei let Liu Shi into the study and explained the marriage time and etiquette one by one.

Liu Shi nodded yes, and then said some gossip, and heard Liu Bei's personal guard come to preach: "The Zhu family has something important to inform General Annan, let Marquis Liu go." ”

Liu Shi didn't know what was going on, and looked at the eldest brother.

Liu Bei said: "It should have nothing to do with marriage, otherwise I will be notified, not you, you go and see what's going on." ”

Liu Shi said goodbye, and Zhang Fei said with a smile: "On Brother Shi's wedding day, my old Zhang Ke wants to drink a few more glasses, and there is no escaping at that time." Otherwise, I will have to fight you for another 300 rounds. ”

Liu Shi smiled: "Brother Hei! Those who come will not refuse, as long as you have the courage. He laughed and walked away.

Liu Shi came to Mi Zhu's house, Mi Zhu welcomed Liu Shi into the study, and after sitting down, Mi Zhu said: "I heard you say, now Nanyang lacks virtuous and wise people, I have paid attention to you these days, Xuzhou is talented, but unfortunately I am afraid that I will not go to Nanyang to do things for you." However, there is a strong man in Xiapi Dongcheng, surnamed Lu Mingsu, the word is respectful, and the family is quite rich. This man is an all-round talent in humanities and martial arts, with lofty ambitions and a heart of hills and valleys, which is not comparable to ordinary wise people. He is loyal, likes to make friends with knights from all walks of life, and is extremely famous in the local area. It is said that Yuan Shu once conscripted him, but he refused. Two days ago, I sent a house slave to imitate it, and it is said that this person is going to Chaohu Lake to seek refuge with Zhang Bao. This person should not be recruited by letters alone, but it is better to meet him in person. If you rush over now, you should be able to see this person, and then you will be gone. ”

Liu Shi's heart moved, he still had a few days to go, why not take this opportunity to visit in person? Just do what he said, say goodbye to Mi Zhu, send someone to send a letter with the eldest brother, take Xiang Xiong and ten personal guards, and hurry to Dongcheng.

Under the leadership of the servants of the Mi family, he found Lu Suzhuang and handed over the handbook.

Jiading glanced at Liu Shi, said wait a while, and went to report.

Lu Su welcomed Liu Shi to the main hall for tea.

Liu Shi explained his intentions, Lu Su pondered for a while, and said: "Liu Yuanjun, you and I are thousands of miles apart, how do you know that there is Lu Su in the world?" ”

Liu Shi smiled slightly: "I was originally just looking for Mr. Kang Cheng, my teacher, this time, but I didn't want to find it, and I met the yellow scarf around Beihai." I persuaded my brother who came to Beihai to appease 100,000 yellow scarves. Beihai could not afford to support so many Yellow Turban soldiers and their families, so I had to move them to Nanyang. In Beihai Mansion, I met the eldest brother of the Mi family, and I had to marry my little sister to me. Mr. Xuzhou knows everything, and the eldest brother of the Mi family knows that I have the heart to seek talents, and recommends Mr. to me. ”

Liu Shi paused and said: "Shi is not far away, galloping to find Mr. Lu, I sincerely want to hire Mr. to plan for me, share the worries of the emperor, and seek peace for the people, I don't know if Mr. is willing to teach me?" ”

In Xuzhou in early spring, the cold was thick, Liu Shi and Lu Su sat opposite each other, the flames on their sides were burning vigorously, and the firelight was reflected on Liu Shi's face, which was shining.

Lu Su asked, "Did Marquis Liu go to Xuzhou in the early days?" ”

Liu Shi sighed: "Ten years ago, Shi studied under Mr. Kang Cheng for a year, and he couldn't learn what Mr. Yi, but his uncle's birthday was approaching, and Shi returned to Dongjun to pay tribute to his uncle's birthday, and then he wanted to go to Luoyang to study from his father's order. Unexpectedly, he went to the left of Taishan County, died of illness, and was rescued by the Chinese doctor, after the stone woke up, he immediately worshiped the Chinese doctor as a teacher, and traveled to Xuzhou, Yanzhou, Yangzhou, and Yuzhou with the Chinese doctor for three years. ”

Saying that, the Buddha opened the floodgates of memory, sighed and said: "At that time, it was the Yellow Turban Rebellion, countless displaced people starved to death, countless villages were destroyed, and grain fields were barren. Countless people have no clothes and no food, and there have been countless rich, powerful, and wealthy families, who have spent a lot of money. I felt a moment of emotion in my heart, and wrote two poems that sighed for the world, but I offended many families. It is also for this reason that I clearly realize that the yellow turbans and bandits are just a group of poor people who have no food to eat, and they embarked on this road of no return because of poverty. ”

Lu Su flicked the fire lightly, the fire rose, and then looked at Liu Shi and said: "Those who want to achieve great things must suffer their minds. ”

Liu Shi said: "Yes! Shi Ji met by chance, saw the face of the sky, was favored by the first emperor, gave Maocai, and gave the county magistrate. Yuan Situ and a group of ministers strongly recommended me to take up a post in Shangluo. The emperor asked Zhang Rang, who was a regular attendant, and Zhang Rang said: "The terrain of Shangluo is treacherous, the people's hearts are not ancient, and the bandits live there. ”

Lu Su frowned, "This Yuan Situ may not have a good heart!" ”

Liu Shi nodded and said: Who said it wasn't? Or Zhang Zhongchang suggested: The military needs are urgent, the Wuguan Road is blocked, the Jinghuai grain and grass cannot be transported to Chang'an, and the county magistrate Liu is a civil and military all-rounder, so it is better to let him be the captain of the Wuguan Road and the magistrate of Shangluo County, and govern the military affairs of Lantian, Shangluo, and Shangxian to Wuguan, and enlist the bandits to ensure that the Wuguan line is unblocked. ”

Then Liu Shi smiled and said: "I am also a blessing in disguise, the first emperor not only agreed with Zhang Zhongshi's suggestion, but also asked about my family. I said that after Liu Sheng, the king of Jing, attracted the interest of the first emperor, and issued an edict to Zhuo County to verify the facts, promising that if it was true, I would be able to exterminate the Wuguandao bandits within two years, and restore my clan identity and ancestral title. That night, he summoned me to speak in the inner palace and asked me about the strategy of suppressing thieves, and I advocated in front of the Son of Heaven: The yellow scarf and the thieves should be mainly caressed, supplemented by suppression. The Emperor was convinced. This is also why I met the Yellow Turbans today and was willing to pay a huge amount of money to take them to Nanyang. ”

After hearing this, Lu Su sighed: "Liu Envoy Junjun is really a benevolent person. However, I still have a question for Liu Yuanjun. I wonder what Liu Yuanjun thinks about today? ”
