Chapter 41: Hypocrisy and Truth
Outside Jixian County, the banner with the black background swallow character and the red background to protect the black captain waved in the wind in Beiying. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Yanbei cloth down the wine and food, picked up the pottery bowl and said: "Gentlemen, please drink, the camp is short of wine and food, and will be, after the completion of the Montenegrin matter, the three can go to Liaodong as a guest, and then Yan will do the east for you, and then the autumn crab will be fat, I am equal to the boat on the tongs and the wine is not happy." ”
There was no main seat in the camp, only five cases were placed opposite each other, Tai Shici sat next to Yanbei, and the three people opposite them were Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei.
Liu Bei and Guan Yu both thanked each other for holding the wine bowl, but Zhang Fei's eyes lit up when he heard Yan Bei's description, and he took the lead in laughing and said: "Then Fei thanked Yan Jun, haha, brother, let's go to Liaodong as a guest then!" ”
Compared with Guan Yu's silence and drinking, and Zhang Fei's joy when he saw food, Yanbei's eyes were more focused on Liu Bei. Liu Bei is not a simple person, his mind is exquisite but he does not leak out, Yan Bei can feel that he has been thinking about it, but he doesn't say anything.
And he never loses his temper, he always has a gentle appearance with lowered eyebrows, and with a pair of slightly larger earlobes, he looks like a humble gentleman, if it weren't for Yanbei seeing his appearance of fighting the battlefield, I'm afraid that he would be deceived by him.
Like a sword in a sheath.
Seeing it like a good woman, taking it like a tiger.
Liu Bei put down the wine bowl, bowed his hand to Xie Yanbei's hospitality again, thought about it again and again, and then asked: "I can't prepare the general of the defeated army, why did Yan Jun ask Liu Gong for my three brothers in the state capital hall today?" ”
It would be a lie to say that there was no surprise and excitement in my heart at that time. Liu Bei knows his position in the state capital, who will focus on himself from all the people who are engaged in it and even Liu Gong? They don't even know what their names are or what they do. But his name was said aloud by Yanbei in the public, and he wanted the three of them to go to the Jizhou battlefield with him.
"The general of the defeated army? On the battlefield of Liaodong, you robbed my captive Meng Yi, didn't Yun Chang almost behead Yan under his horse? Yan Bei smiled heroically, raised his hand to Liu Bei and said: "Yan didn't treat you as the general of the defeated army, if there were no three of you under the command of General Bogui in the Battle of Yangle, he would be bound by me and pushed to the foot of this Jixian County!" ”
How dare Liu Bei respond to such a sentence, he hurriedly picked up the wine bowl and took a sip to hide his embarrassment, and said: "Yan Jun praised it falsely, even if there is no wait, Brother Bogui has a general, and he can save the day." ”
Yan Bei looked at Liu Bei with a playful smile on his face and shook his head slightly, but he also knew that Liu Bei couldn't respond to this, Liu Xuande was not a reckless person who only knew how to be boasted, even if he really thought that Gongsun Zhan was saved by Liu Bei that time, but saying such things would only add to the embarrassment. After a while, Yan Bei said with a straight sleeve: "Liu Xuande, I felt familiar when I heard your name, and then I went back and thought about it, I heard your name mentioned a long time ago." ”
"Oh?" Liu Bei asked with a signature reserved smile on his face, "Yan Jun has heard the name below?" ”
Yan Bei nodded and said: "In the early years, I lived in Fanyang for a period of time, and Yan's memory is never wrong, that is, at that time, I heard the villagers say that there was a big ranger Liu Xuande in Lousang, who left the township and went to the Central Plains. ”
"If Yan had gone to Zhuo County earlier, he might have been able to make friends with Jun at that time." Yan Bei said with a little fascination on his face, and then said with a smile: "In the battle of southern Liaoning, you don't have to instruct Yun Chang to slash me, it's not a secret, many nights later, Yun Chang always rode into my dream with his long knife, and shocked me into a cold sweat." ”
Tai Shi Ci used a wine bowl to hide the smile on his face, he was used to his reckless Shangguan always showing cowardice inadvertently, and Yan Bei had a strange temperament, he could frankly admit that he was not good, but it would not make people feel that this was a mediocre person.
On the contrary, I think he is really temperamental.
Guan Yu nodded slowly, looked at Yan Bei and didn't speak, just wordlessly picked up the wine bowl and drank it all.
The two brothers, Liu Bei and Guan Yu, are still too dull. Zhang Fei was so focused on cooking meat that he didn't listen to what everyone was talking about at all, just watched Guan Yu pick up the wine bowl, and he picked up the wine bowl to Yan Bei in a similar way, poured the wine into his mouth with his big hand, swallowed it and sipped it a little boringly, and shook his head slightly.
Yan Bei thought it was very interesting, and asked with a smile: "Yide, do you think this wine is not to taste?" ”
Liu Bei and Guan Yu seemed to be a little angry with him, although they had met a few times on the battlefield, it was the first time they sat down to drink, and it was difficult to talk together. However, this Zhang Fei was fearless, rolled up his sleeve robe and was about to bend down to fight with the meat, when he heard Yan Bei's question, he didn't want to say it: "It's too light, and it doesn't taste good in your mouth!" ”
"Haha!" Yan Bei stroked his palms and laughed, Liu Bei turned his head and feigned anger and said, "Yide! Don't apologize to Yan Jun yet! ”
"It's okay, Yide is a good drinker of spirits, yes, the sword is worthy of a hero, and the liquor is also worthy of a hero!" Yan Bei hurriedly waved his hand to Liu Bei, and then said to Zhang Fei: "Yide is good at drinking spirits, and Xiangping has the cold spirits sent by Xianbei people, and when Yan comes back from Jizhou, let Yide drink enough!" ”
"Really?" Zhang Fei put down the steamed meat, looked at his hands full of oil stains, and hurriedly wiped his hands on the silk next to him, and then arched his hand and said, "Then Fei thanked Yanjun first!" ”
Liu Bei couldn't cry or laugh when he looked at Zhang Fei, who didn't regard himself as an outsider at all, so he looked at Yanbei with a smiling face, Yanbei waved his hand and said: "It's okay, Yan was also good at drinking in his early years, and if he didn't drink for three days, he felt that the worms were hooked on his five organs." It's just that he was seriously injured in Zhongshan the year before last, and he lay on the couch all winter, and the doctor didn't let him get drunk, but it made Yan uncomfortable. ”
"Dare to ask Yan Jun, was it the battle in Jizhou that injured Your Excellency?" Perhaps it was Zhang Fei's cheerfulness, or when it came to the war, Guan Yu asked: "The Battle of Pingxiang or the Siege of Handan?" ”
After asking, Guan Yu felt a little abrupt, and clasped his fists and said: "Don't blame Yanjun, I asked my subordinates to investigate the war at that time, martial arts and battle formations, Guan seems to be more practiced." ”
Yan Bei's heart lit up a little, he knew that Zhang Fei's preference was to drink spirits, and at this time, he also knew that Guan Yu liked battle formations and martial arts, and only Liu Bei was still mysterious to him at this time. He hugged his fists and said: "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint Yun Chang, Yan fought with people after he grew up, and the most seriously injured was only twice, one was when Yun Chang's knife slashed his head and hurt his head; Again, he knocked General Bogui down from his horse, and Yan was not injured in the battle formation in Jizhou. He was severely wounded by his subordinates and was given 50 lashes. ”
"Fifty lashes from a subordinate?" Zhang Fei glared and asked, "The little soldier dares to punish the captain!" ”
Liu Bei was silent and just looked at Yan Bei and waited for him to say the following, but Guan Yu looked very energetic and said, "I want to hear it in detail." ”
"It was a very early time, Zhang Gongfang of Zhongshan raised troops, and Yan was just a military marquis, and his subordinates were only a few hundred people. Thanks to the elder brother of the Zhen clan in Zhongshan, Yan was able to enter Wuji City without blood. It's just that there was no prestige at that time, and it was not good to restrain the soldiers, and when Yan entered the city, he assured the three elders that he would protect the people of a city, how could he expect that a subordinate coveted the beauty of a woman, broke into the house, injured the master, and bullied his wife...... The county magistrate brought his tearful family to my camp, and I don't know how many eyes were watching what I would do. ”
"Yu Li, Yan had made a promise to shelter the township. In love, that soldier once fought to the death for Yan, and if I kill him, the priest will be cold. What's more, the past is not as good as it is now, and Yan does not have the prestige he has for his subordinates now, if he drew a knife to kill someone at that time, hundreds of soldiers who followed me would raise troops and kill me. Yan Bei said, thinking that the corners of his mouth were also hooked at that time, and said with a sly smile: "So I made a bet." ”
"A bet?" Guan Yu asked, "How did Your Excellency do that?" ”
"After a bet, I bet that the Ministry of Marching Law will be a little lighter; Gambling on military law and fifty lashes will not kill Yan. Yan Bei raised his chin with a little pride, and there was a smile on his face that could not be hidden, "I told the Father of Wuji City that this person was born and died for me, and if I beat him with fifty lashes, he will be beaten to death, so I can't beat him." But he couldn't do it and had to be punished, Yan was very embarrassed, so he ...... Yan took off his armor and asked his subordinate to whip me fifty times in front of his subordinates and father. ”
Yan Bei drank the wine, waved his hand and said with a smile: "The general did keep his hand, but it is better to be ruthless and let Yan faint, so as to save the pain of flesh and skin." After ten whips, the skin is open, and it hurts to sweat when you touch it, let alone whip it! Later, Yan won the bet, but the whip did not kill him, and since then he has ordered everything in the camp...... I haven't talked about this to my subordinates in detail, so I don't want to give them a long heart! ”
"Shh Zhang Fei said with a narrow smile: "Yan Jun, you are too thief, you are such a hypocritical thing, and you are so righteous and awe-inspiring. ”
However, Guan Yu Danfeng's eyes widened, and he arched his hand a little later: "Thank you Yanjun, I have been taught." ”
"Yide, Yanjun, this is not hypocrisy." Liu Bei sighed and bowed his hand to Yanbei with admiration, and then said to Zhang Fei: "The so-called hypocrisy is not doing real things for the sake of false words. In the dilemma, he found a unique way to make a way to achieve both, even if Yan Jun wanted to accept the heart of the soldiers and obey the teachings of the people, but he was whipped and it was not hypocrisy, it was his true temperament. If a person lives a lifetime and acts without empty words, what is the difference between hypocrisy and truth? ”
Speaking of this, Liu Bei got up and shook Yan Beichang to the ground, and then got up and said: "I have a drink with you today, I admire it very much, Yan Jun is about to go south to quell the chaos, all this wine is for Yan Jun, this battle will be won!" Prepare from Liaoxi to wait for the good news of the chaos, wait for Yan Jun to return to the teacher, and prepare for the wine and dust for Jun in Zhuo County! ”
"Haha, great goodness." Yan Bei got up with a smile and bowed his hand to the three of them, and then said: "It's not early, Xuande Yunchang Yide, you have been out of the camp for a long time, then you will come to Japan for a long time, and come to Japan for a long time!" ”
"It's a long time coming."
The three of them said goodbye to Yanbei and sent them to Yuanmen to get on the horse, and Yanbei finally couldn't help asking: "Xuande, General Bogui didn't allow the three of you to go to Jizhou with me, do you have any regrets in your heart?" ”
Liu Bei had already raised his horsewhip, and when he heard Yan Bei ask, he grabbed the reins and turned around to look at Yan Bei standing under the gate, nodded lightly, and then laughed loudly: "As the general said, the coming day is long!" ”
