Chapter 165: Liu Bang

"Long Sima, anti-Qin is a great cause, and there is no hurry to do it for a while, right?

Liu hasn't entertained you well for a few days, why is he going to leave? ”

Long He sat on horseback, with a smile on his fat face: "Pei Gong's kindness is in his heart, and now the military order has reached the point where he can't stay longer, just wait for the next time we meet!" ”

Liu Ji was laughing, it was the kind of smile that covered up the stiffness by stroking the mane of the war horse, the soldier is a good soldier, the horse is a good horse, he coveted it in his eyes, but he couldn't leave it with all his might.

When they left Pengcheng, both the Qi and Wei people got what they wanted.

The one who was dedicated to being the king was acquiesced, and the weak ones bought the Qin crossbow, but Liu Ji came back empty-handed, and the villagers and elders saw him and asked vigorously, whether he had offended the general by being inconsiderate.

Conscience of heaven and earth! On the weak power, can the Qi people have the weak people? Three or two cities were almost occupied!

In terms of pure heart, those people can compare to him Liu Ji? Qi and Wei are both self-established kings, he just claims that Pei Gong has always been obedient to things, why can't he be favored?

Etiquette... Etiquette...... Could it really be this reason?

But the family is not rich, what kind of gifts? The only one who took the shot was Xiao Liu Le, who had just given birth to Lu Pheasant, but Zhang Zifang did not respond to the proposal to set a baby parent, what else could he give?

Taking advantage of the excitement and returning from defeat, aside from perfunctory words such as "Pei and Wei's peace is the biggest gain", Liu Ji still gained a lot.

According to his temperament, the big hole at the tip of the needle can pass through the big wind, not to mention the rebels from all over the country who have gathered in just a few months?

Thereupon...... Wei Bao's subordinates were touched to the bottom, and Tian Ba's entourage often drank and chatted with him, so to speak, when the alliance ended and parted ways, many people were proclaimed to be generals instead of generals, which shows this guy's ability to drill camps.

Now that the big wind is blowing the dragon again, this is a good opportunity, eating and drinking, waiting for it, meeting the requirements of Chu Jun before and after the saddle, after a few days, Liu Ji always feels that there is still something missing, and it is not the same as what he expected.

There is a family behind Long Ji, and there are tens of thousands of Chu troops who can fight well, and the situation is stronger than people, so Liu Ji didn't dare to use the means of going too far, and he didn't dare to use the 20,000 cavalry to him, the consequences were too serious, and the abundant land couldn't even stop the Zhou City, let alone the general?

However, just asking for food and sending it can't achieve the goal, he has already taken out all what Pei County has, and he has tried his best to do what Pei County doesn't have, the reason why he works so hard is because Liu Ji feels that Long He looks kinder, and he should be better to deal with than Fan Zeng and Yu Zhou's side items.

Indeed, Long He is very kind, after he was full of wine and food, the little fat man scolded Yu Ziqi in front of Liu Ji, saying how stingy that guy should not treat Pei Gong Yunyun like this, and said that it was a pity that he was not a blacksmith and did not understand ordnance, and he would definitely say a few fair words for Pei Gong next time he came back......

And then...... And then there is no more......

couldn't keep the one who should go, so Liu Ji had no choice but to say goodbye to Long Ji.

On the way back to Pei County, he has been reflecting on what he has done recently, did he really collide with the Chu people? Why is it still difficult to communicate with Fan Xu?

Fan Xu's enthusiasm is also decreasing day by day, could it be that the follow-up of Yongya's incident still has an impact?

Chattering all the way, Liu Ji remembered that Wang Ling was here again, the last time they repelled the Wei army together, the relationship between the two eased slightly, Wang Ling was finally able to give him a good look, how do you know that when he turned his head, this benevolent brother treated him coldly, and he was not as good as a stranger.

Because Liu Ji has been trying to befriend the Chu army recently, because Wang Ling's friend Yongya died in the Chu camp......

It's good that both ends don't fall! Chu Jun didn't get what he wanted, and Fengruo's brother Haoqiang left Germany again, feeling that it was not easy to make things happen, Liu Ji planned to visit and appease Wang Ling after he went back, and he would catch it first.

No matter how young the city is, it is also a prince, and no matter how weak the power is, it is very different from the past, after this Pei Gong returned to Pei County, he put aside the idea of the road for the time being.

When he saw Wei Jun, he was small, and when he saw Chu Jun, he had to bow his head, and when he saw Long, he had to hold it, and he had to pay for his smiling face for a while...... I'm so tired! Let's relax first......

A pot of warm soup, two maidservants, it doesn't matter if you look ugly, you just need to serve in your hands.

Couldn't wait to take off his shoes and socks, Liu Ji put his feet into the wooden basin, feeling the strength that was neither light nor heavy, and he was about to hum out in comfort.

The water is murmuring, which makes people's minds relaxed, warm and suitable, and I can't help but want to sleep, and I don't know how long it has been, and the half-asleep person recalls his big husband as such, and is a little drunk.

It's not easy to be a big husband!

Liu Ji closed his eyes and pretended to sleep motionless, the two maids didn't dare to stop, and the warm soup was changed when it was cold, and after doing so three times, he finally saw Pei Gong turn over and seemed to be asleep.

Just about to leave, I heard an unhappy hum in my ears, as if I wanted to wake up? Hurriedly stepped forward, kneading and pinching, and sent the master to sleep again, only to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Pei Gong! Pei Gong –

Oh, what a system, what a system! Go down!

Pei Gong, wake up, there is a sage visiting, Pei Gong, Pei Gong ......"

The noisy sound finally woke up Liu Ji, he sat up and rubbed his eyes, as if he hadn't come back to his senses, he looked at the collapsed footbasin for a while, and his tone was lazy and impatient: "What sage?" Is it a Confucian again? ”

"It's not a Confucian scholar, it's a ...... we got acquainted with in Wei Ying"

Before Li Shiqi finished speaking, he saw a person sneaking in at the door, this person was dignified and burly, with a short beard under the chin that looked unusually soft, and a pair of slender eyes were attentive, looking at Liu Ji with a smile.

"Pei Gong, do you remember being down?!"

Liu Ji rubbed his eyes vigorously when he saw the visitor, wiped the eye feces on the back of his hand, jumped off the couch with an arrow step, stepped on the ground with his bare feet and ignored it, and almost kicked over the wooden basin.

"Oh, Mr. Chen Ping, Peng Cheng is like yesterday, he wants to mess with me, he wants to me, he wants to me, he ......"

Seeing Liu Ji welcoming guests like this, Li Shiqi couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into, and the old man apologized while helping to cover up: "Mr. Chen, this is not the case when Pei is fair, today you are here, he is overjoyed......"

Chen Ping smiled and replied: "Pei Gong's temperament knows a little bit about it, and it is good to be honest and honest, otherwise I wouldn't have rushed to the door and lost my manners first." ”

After hearing this, Liu Ji didn't mention how beautiful his heart was, he kicked away the wooden basin under his feet, he didn't take Qiao anymore, and said with a big grin: "See, this is a true friend, Li Lao'er, you were obviously a madman at the beginning, but you wanted to pretend to be a Confucian student, and you said that you wanted to take the school examination for me......

Take a look, take a look! Look at how frank Mr. Chen Ping is, and treat frank people with sincerity is the courtesy. ”

It has been a while since he joined Peijun, and Li Shiqi knows Liu Ji very well, hearing him mention the past when he almost peed in his hat, the old man was not ashamed, he said a very polite "phew", and left with a red face, and when he left, he slammed the door and kicked the basin looking very excited.

"Pei Gong is really eclectic, and he didn't come in vain on this trip."

Obedient and listening, who is Liu Ji? Observe the old ancestors!

Chen Ping entered the door in two sentences, revealing the meaning of taking refuge, how could Liu Ji not agree?

"Mr. Chen Ping, I'm very happy that you can come to me, if you are not afraid of your jokes, Liu Ji has no three ridges and few households, why is Mr. only looking at it?"

When he asked, it was Chen Ping's turn to be embarrassed: "Don't hide it from Pei Gong, Chen escaped this time, and even the clothes on his body were just borrowed from Pei Gong's subordinates ......"

Liu Ji was shocked: "Why?!" ”

"After Pengcheng, the matter of me and Pei Gong having a good conversation has spread in Wei Ying, Wei Bao does not believe in people, and listening to slander makes me have no place to stand.

After Chen left, he thought about it, so he simply didn't do anything, and took refuge in Pei Gong to show his ambitions. ”

Chen Ping only said half of it, at least he didn't say the reason for falling into such a situation.

When the alliance was first formed, Chen Ping was just an ordinary doorman under Wei Bao, very inconspicuous, no one thought that this doorman was not only ambitious, but also had outstanding vision and wisdom.

What sparks will be caused by a subordinate who is too capable and a boss who is mediocre? It turns out that there is friction, but there is no spark, because Wei Bao is not only mediocre in qualifications, but he does not have much tolerance.

After the Wei royal family met Chen Ping, a poor boy with four walls, not to mention that the former was narrow-minded, at least there were many injustices, so that the latter was constrained everywhere, in a word, the small temple could not accommodate the big Bodhisattva.

Then the sullen Chen Ping met Liu Ji in Pengcheng, and the two fell in love at first sight.

Although Liu Ji is not respectful, he dares to really let go, and there are all kinds of people under his hands.

Chen Ping compared with a few stores, and finally chose Peixian.

Chu Ying also thought about it, but he just looked at Fan Zeng and Zhang Liang, who were inseparable from Xiang Ji, and his thoughts immediately filled his entire chest after being the head of the chicken rather than being a cow, otherwise how could he be worthy of the grand wish he made when he was young, and slaughter the meat of the world like a board......

The ideal is lofty, the reality is cruel, just like leaving the Wei camp this time, no one in the Wei army treated him well, but when he took the ferry, he met the black-hearted boatman, seeing that the other party's ferocity is getting worse, when will the golden cicada not get out of its shell?

Thereupon...... Chen Ping took off his clothes.

It's not that kind of off, but the naked body shows that he doesn't have any property, which breaks the other party's mind when he sees money.

What's more, he threw his sword directly into the back cabin, paddling the oars bare-chested, and the boat bosses who watched were stunned one by one.

The boatman, who was half a fisherman and half a water thief, looked at it with his sword in his hand for a long time, and when he looked up, he suddenly found that the boat had been rowed to the shore, and when he turned around again, he found that the boy had already run away with no clothes on......

……

Anyway, Chen Ping is here, and Liu Ji won't mention embarrassing things, and he makes fun of each other, both true and false, and the guests and hosts are happy.

"Mr. Chen came by coincidence, I happened to be troubled by an annoying thing for a long time, and I asked Mr. to relieve my worries."

"Pei Gong, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

"If all of them are against the restoration of all countries today, this small Pei County is like a lonely boat that is difficult to protect itself, and it is very worried in my heart, what can I do?"

As the saying goes, those who have the ability to eat meat and those who don't have the ability to eat dry rice, Chen Ping knew that this examination was intended to determine his future status, twisted his beard and pondered, and after thinking for a long time, he decided to say something amazing.

"Pei Gong, dare to ask, do you want to be really anti-Qin, or do you want to get by?!"

What does Liu Ji think? Even he himself can't tell!

The most difficult thing in the world to guess is the human heart, so there is a famous saying that those who know others are wise and those who know themselves are clear.

He has thought about the two paths that Chen Ping said, or he has mixed up to this point, those two reasons are his initial motivation, and there are even more complex reasons that cannot be divided into one, two, and three.

Drift along?! I have a wife, a territory, a brother, a son and a daughter, and people in their forties have what to fight, and they have long been grandfathers on others, and now it seems that this is not bad......

Really anti-Qin? That's right, if the tyrannical Qin doesn't die, the possession that I just thought about will sooner or later be slaughtered by others......

So, Liu Jichang took a breath and replied: "The Qin people are tyrannical and unreasonable, Liu is not talented, and I am willing to contribute a little bit to the transformation of the world, but my strength alone is limited after all, and I ask Mr. to give me advice." ”

The first half of the sentence was arrogant, and the second half of the sentence turned to take the opportunity to win over, Chen Ping was very satisfied after listening to it, nodded and said: "The merit of destroying the country is a great cause, has Pei Gong ever thought about where to go in the future?"

Is it to disarm and return to the field to be ignored by everyone? Or is it too expensive to be in a high position?! ”

When the pavilion chief didn't dare to imagine the days of being a homeless person, when Pei Gong was difficult to look back on those hardships experience, in the face of two new choices, Liu Ji confessed: "There was a fortune teller who said before, I am destined to be unspeakably expensive in my life, the one behind, I choose the one behind......"

"Okay, in that case, does Duke Pei want the prince to be noble, or to be in charge of Kyushu?!"

As soon as Chen Ping's words fell, Liu Ji immediately shivered, and subconsciously asked, "What do you mean?!" ”

After asking, he himself reacted, and his expression instantly became surprised and inexplicable, and his face was full of incredulity.

Unlike Xiang Ji, who used to be a nobleman and had a superior vision, Liu Ji's purpose for raising troops was very complicated, but he was by no means rushing for the supreme position from the beginning, just as Chen Sheng only shouted that a prince and a prince would have a kind of Xiangning, not that the emperor would take turns to come to my house tomorrow......

Because the emperor is the Son of Heaven, the king is not, even if Zhou Tianzi was abandoned by the Qin people decades ago, but the afterglow of Zhou Li's more than 800 years to this day, the first thought of the people of the world after overthrowing Qin Tianzi is still not to sit on it himself.

In other words, I can't think of sitting on it without a certain status......

Pavilion Chief Liu Ji didn't think about it, Pei Gong Liu Ji didn't think about it either, now Chen Ping forced him to think about it, and after thinking about it, he found that his mouth was very dry, and his heart beat like a drum.

Mr. Chen Ping...... That's a bit bigger, and it's a little earlier, right? ”

"It's not early, only after Pei Gong thinks about this problem clearly, Chen can give you advice, the king has the king's way, the emperor has the emperor's plan, all of them are here to pretend to be ......"

How can such a big matter be decided in three or two sentences? Liu Ji thought for a moment and tried to ask: "Then is there anything in common between the royal road and the emperor's plot, Mr. Dare to say it." ”

"Yes! Win the hearts of the people! ”

"Win the hearts and minds of the people? Will the plan be settled? ”

Chen Ping twisted his beard: "Xun Zi said: The monarch is also a boat, and the water is also water, and the water is a boat, and the water is overturned."

Pei Gong has just compared the land of abundance to a flat boat, so he must know that it is not the external force that can subvert the flat boat, but the local people.

It's like the last time Wei Xiang led the army to attack, if there was no help from the heroes here, would Pei Gong dare to defend the city?

The Chu army has been able to grow so far, in my opinion, it is also in accordance with this principle, they must make three chapters of the law every time they pass, be kind to the local people, make mutual appointments with the powerful and powerful in various places, and repair houses with the people, and those who carry water and cultivate the fields do not know the geometry, although it is a small move, but it is the fastest means to win the hearts of the people, and those who can make this plan must be the first wise man in the world.

If Pei Gong has a lofty heart, he might as well follow one or two to show his reputation! ”

Liu Ji is very smart, the moment he saw the Chu people, he knew that the other party was different from himself, but where was the difference, there were too many but he couldn't say, and now he was broken by a clear-eyed person, and his mind suddenly became lively.

"Good! Tomorrow, I will let Zhou Bo and them act according to the plan......"

"Wait!"

"What else does the gentleman have to say?"

Compared with the attitude of the Wei people, it is simply one heaven and one underground!

After Chen Ping sighed, he continued: "Pei Gong, if you do this, it's best to change your name before that. ”

"Why is that?!"

"For the king, for the superior, Pei Gong will be famous in the world from today, how can he be known to the world as a family arrangement? It's not proper, it's not ......"

Liu Ji has been using the name for more than 40 years, and suddenly someone said that it was inappropriate, and he suddenly wondered: "According to Mr. Ji's words, what kind of name should I take?" ”

Chen Pingxin said that I only asked you to change your name, and I didn't plan to even have your surname, but you were conscious.

"The king enjoys his country, and the country is also a state, Pei Gong might as well be called Liu Bang in the future, what do you think?"

Liu Bang...... Good name!

Mr. Chen Ping, I'm a little nonsense, but I didn't say anything to my brother, Mr. has frequently offered advice today, and I can't worry about the lack of rewards.

In this way, how about you first serve as a lieutenant in our army, a staff member and a central protector? ”

"Thank you, Pei Gong!"

"Hahaha, they're all their own brothers, what's polite?

Tonight, you and I will talk with candles and nights, and talk about the rest of the troubles together, I am glad that you are here!

Come on, set up a feast! ”
