Here, Zhuge Liang is trying to find a way to send Lu Su out, and over there, Liu Bei has already gone to visit Fazheng with a generous gift.

When Fa Zheng first came to Jiangling, he was first arranged in a post house, but as soon as he woke up, he was politely invited to another mansion.

As soon as Fa Zheng entered Jingzhou, he was treated by such a VIP, so he was naturally taken aback, and he had a good impression of Liu Bei in his heart.

After living in the courtyard for less than a day, he had just gotten up in the morning, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw a middle-aged elderly man standing outside his door, standing with his hands down, looking respectful.

Fa Zheng was surprised in his heart, and said, "Who are you, do you have something to do with me?" ”

When the middle-aged elder saw Fa Zheng coming out, he couldn't help but look happy, and he bowed deeply and said, "Liu Bei has heard the name of Fa Xiaozhi for a long time, and he is here to pay a visit. ”

Fa Zheng was extremely shocked in his heart, and subconsciously rubbed his ears, for fear that he had heard the wrong words from Fang Cai, and he was stunned for a long time before he reacted, and hurriedly bent down to return the salute, and said: "It turned out to be Liu Yuanjun, who should have been going to visit the envoy, how dare you bother to make the monarch bend down and come in person." ”

Liu Bei had a kind look on his face and said: "Mr. is a genius in the world, and he has admired him for a long time, so he came to visit him as a person." I had planned to come earlier, but I wanted my husband to come thousands of miles away, and he must be physically and mentally tired, so he didn't dare to disturb. ”

Liu Bei's words almost moved Fa Zheng to tears, thinking back to his years in Yizhou, how could he have received such courtesy, and he still received the courtesy of Liu Bei, the hero of the world.

"Please make the king." Fa Zheng let Liu Bei into the room, and asked casually: "Did the envoy just come?" ”

Liu Bei said with a smile: "Bei came here for half an hour, but I saw that Mr. was still asleep, so I didn't dare to disturb it, so I waited outside for a while, it wouldn't be to disturb Mr. Qingmeng." ”

"He waited outside for half an hour!"

Fa Zheng was flattered again in his heart, and then looked at Liu Bei's expression, he was very calm, as if such a corporal Lixian's actions were commonplace for him.

However, although Fa Zheng was moved by Liu Bei's kindness, he was not the kind of person who gave a little touch and followed him with all his heart, and he restrained his surprise at the moment, the expression on his face tended to be indifferent, and he smiled: "People say that Liu Yuanjun is the master of Corporal Lixian, and when I see it today, he is really as good as his name." ”

Liu Bei immediately said humbly: "How can you be prepared, how dare you be the word 'Ming Lord', Mr.'s words are really tortured." ”

The two exchanged some polite words of mutual praise, and Fa Zheng explained the purpose of the trip, saying that he was ordered by Liu Zhang to come to pass.

Liu Bei said: "I have admired Liu Jiyu for a long time, and I wanted to send someone to Yizhou to get married, but I didn't expect Mr. to come first." When Mr. returned, I sent someone to bring a thin gift to return with Mr., which was also a little respect. ”

Fa Zheng thanked him and said: "Then I will thank the envoy for my lord first, Yizhou is far away, and now I can see the envoy, and I should not say that I will set off to go back to restore my life." ”

Liu Bei hurriedly said: "It's rare for Mr. to come here, why should I go back in such a hurry, I have to look up to Mr. for a long time, and I have a lot to ask Mr. for advice." ”

"This ......" Fa Zheng pretended to hesitate, but in fact, he was a little more down-to-earth because of Liu Bei's stay.

Liu Bei could see that Fa Zheng didn't want to leave, so he hurriedly said: "Prepare a banquet in the mansion tonight, it can be regarded as an official reception for Mr., Mr. doesn't have to excuse himself, stay a few more days before leaving." ”

Fa Zheng pretended to be embarrassed for a while, and then thanked him: "Liu Yuanjun is so gracious, it is better to be respectful than to obey his fate." ”

So, Liu Bei held a banquet in the state pastor's mansion that night to catch the wind for Fazheng, and Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong and other civil and military dignitaries in Jiangling were also invited to accompany the banquet. At the banquet, everyone never mentioned anything about Yizhou, just complimenting Fa Zheng with your words and me, what kind of big hats with peerless talent and long-admired fame, one after another buttoned Fa Zheng's head. And Liu Bei looked even more like he hated to see each other, and he couldn't wait to take out his heart and show Fa Zheng his sincerity.

After the banquet, Liu Bei sent his relatives to go back, and when he parted, he also sent more than a dozen young and beautiful Kabuki to Fa Zheng to enjoy, which was really intimate. In the following half a month, Liu Bei treated Fazheng more and more, almost a small banquet in three days, a big banquet in five days, and after he was full of wine and food, he also gave him a wave of beauties to enjoy.

Fa Zheng, who was in the remote land of Yizhou, had been wronged for half his life, and this time he was fully satisfied with Liu Bei, and Liu Bei's favor also made Fa Zheng firm in his original plan.

So, after another banquet, Liu Bei personally sent Fa Zheng back to his residence, and when he was leaving, Fa Zheng took Liu Bei's hand and said in a low voice: "Make the king and stay, I have a few words to say to the envoy." ”

Liu Bei's heart shook, and he had a premonition in his heart, so he entered with Fa Zheng, Fa Zheng closed the door, and when he was sure that there was no one around, he suddenly looked at Liu Bei is bow.

Liu Bei pretended to be surprised, and hurriedly helped him up, saying, "What is the reason for filial piety?" ”

Fa Zheng said angrily: "I have great ambitions, and I want to show my strengths in my life, and assist a master to achieve a great cause. ”

Liu Bei was immediately surprised, and held his hand and said: "It is naturally a great honor to be able to be such a virtuous person as filial piety. It's just that now there is only half of Jingzhou in the hand, and it is borrowed from that Sun Quan, and there is Cao Ying in the north and Ji Yu in the west. ”

Liu Bei had already guessed the ** score and began to pave the way for Fazheng's later words.

Sure enough, after listening to Liu Bei's words of grievance, Fa Zheng laughed and said: "Why should you worry, this time you came to Jing to point out a clear path for you." ”

Liu Bei's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly said: "Does filial piety have a strategy?" I wish to hear about it. ”

Fa Zheng lowered his voice and said: "With the majesty of the king, why not take advantage of Liu Jiyu's cowardice to take Yizhou, with the wealth of Shu, with the dangers of heaven, it is easy to achieve a great cause based on this." ”

"Sure enough, as Zhongzheng expected, the purpose of Fazheng's coming, if he really plans to dedicate Yizhou to me, this is really God help me!"

Liu Bei was overjoyed, but on the surface he was embarrassed, and said: "Mr.'s strategy is a good policy, but the road to Shu is difficult, and the troops are few and far between, even if they take each other, I am afraid that they are powerless." ”

Fa Zheng smiled strangely and said: "Let you rest assured, in fact, Fa Zheng came here, and it was entrusted by Zhang Song, Meng Da and other scholars who were dissatisfied with Liu Jiyu to dedicate Yizhou to the envoy." At that time, we will persuade Liu Jiyu to invite the envoy into Sichuan in the name of Yu Zhang Lu, so that you can enter the Sichuan all the way unimpeded. ”

When Fa Zheng's words came out, Liu Bei was in ecstasy, and he almost screamed.

You must know that he sat empty in Jingzhou for seven years, and finally after many difficulties and dangers, he endured humiliation and burden, and reluctantly borrowed half of Jingzhou from others, and it was also a tired half of Jingzhou after war. As Fa Zheng said, Yizhou's millions of accounts and countless wealth can be obtained without much effort, this is simply a big pie falling from the sky, who will not be ecstatic and almost crazy.

However, Liu Bei forcibly suppressed the surging in his heart, held Fa Zheng's hand tightly, and said gratefully: "I have to be filial today, and God really has mercy on me Liu Bei." If you can get Yizhou, then the law is the first merit, and you must be rewarded with a generous reward. ”

Fa Zhengzheng said: "We are dedicated to Yizhou for the envoy, just to assist the envoy to achieve a hegemony, is it for the sake of greedy returns." ”

Liu Bei said: "The words of filial piety and honesty should be kept in mind, and you will live up to the expectations of filial piety." ”

That night, the two of them made a plot to take Shu, and when Liu Bei informed everyone of the good news in the mansion the next day, the civil and military ministers present were all overjoyed.

Among them, I'm afraid that Zhuge Liang will be the most excited one.

I think that before he left the mountain, he made a decision for Liu Bei in Longzhong, and it was said that it was out of the blue, but when he came out of the mountain, he knew that practice is always ten thousand times more difficult than planning.

Now that half of Jingzhou has achieved the twists and turns, thinking about Yizhou beyond the mountains and rivers, Zhuge Liang really can't think of any better idea except for a strong attack. And sending troops to attack, I am afraid that the success or failure is unknown. The so-called cross-Jingyi, the two-way dispatch of troops in Longzhongce, even he began to feel a little difficult to achieve.

And just when Zhuge Liang was in a dilemma and didn't know how to explain to Liu Bei, God miraculously sent Fa Zheng, which was like sending charcoal in the snow, and rescued him from the predicament, Zhuge Liang was not excited.

However, just when everyone was rejoicing, Liu Bei's face showed sadness again.

Zhuge Liang said: "Jingzhou has been barren and ruined after this war, and the people have been lost. And there is Sun Quan in the east of Jingzhou and Cao Ying in the north, if you want to achieve the momentum according to this, I am afraid that it will be very difficult. And Yizhou is rich and strong, with a million household registrations, fertile land, and abundant products, if you can really seize this land and take it as the foundation, you can achieve great things. This is also Liang in Longzhong is the main plan set for the lord, now there is a law filial piety and others for the internal response, Yizhou is at your fingertips, the great cause is waiting, the lord should be happy. ”

Liu Bei shook his head and sighed, and said: "Looking at the world, those who are on the same page as me are Cao Yingye." It has always been anxious, and I am lenient; with violence, I with benevolence; with tricks, I with loyalty, every time it is the opposite of, there is today's achievement. Now that Liu Jiyu is my fellow clan, Yizhou is certainly desirable, but if you want to lose your faith in the world, I think about it, it's really difficult to start. ”

When everyone heard this, they all fell silent, and everyone knew that Liu Bei had begun to be bound by the name of benevolence and righteousness again.
