With a loud shout, Zhang Fei finally woke up under the gaze of the eight eyes. The first action after opening his eyes, Zhang Fei snatched the silver bowl from Shuang'er's hand, brought it to his mouth, and poured all the porridge in the bowl into his mouth with a tilt of his head. After drinking a bowl of porridge, Zhang Fei clicked his big mouth unsatisfied, Ao Lie just handed the second bowl of porridge to Zhang Fei, Zhang Fei looked up at Ao Lie, opened his big mouth and smiled, and then the silver bowl was poured into his mouth again.

Until he ate three bowls of porridge in a row, Zhang Fei still felt only half full, but Hua Tuo stopped him from continuing to eat, Hua Tuo explained to everyone: "General Zhang has just recovered from a serious illness, and it is not advisable to eat too much, otherwise it will cause a burden on the stomach." ”

Seeing Hua Tuo say this, Ao Lie persuaded Zhang Fei on the side: "Yide, you just woke up today, you really shouldn't eat too much, so let's wait for your body to get better, someone will roast a suckling pig and a sheep for you, so how about it?" ”

Zhang Fei's eyes widened, and he asked in a rough voice, "Then, is there any wine?" Ao Lieha said with a smile: "Five years of aging Zephyr spirits, it's enough!" Hearing Ao Lie's promise, Zhang Fei reluctantly handed the silver bowl in his hand to Shuang'er, and stopped his intention to continue eating.

After Hua Tuo told Zhang Fei a few more things that should be paid attention to, Shuang'er had already put away the dishes and chopsticks, and several people exited Zhang Fei's room one after another, leaving only Ao Lie and Zhang Fei in the room.

After everyone left, Zhang Fei's face suddenly became gloomy, with endless sadness on his face, and said to Ao Lie in a low voice: "You shouldn't save me, I'm alive now, it's better to be dead." ”

Ao Lie knew that Zhang Fei was still worried about Liu Bei's affairs, stretched out his hand on Zhang Fei's shoulder, and said earnestly: "Yide." Can you tell me what your ambitions are? Is it just to follow a certain person, to be loyal to a certain person? You are wrong, you should take a long-term view, one person cannot save the whole world, whether this person is Liu Bei or Cao Cao, or so, he does not have this ability. Now that the Han Dynasty has long been stormy, everyone who has the ability should stand up and do their part for the people of the world, only a large number of people with lofty ideals gather together. Only by working to save all the people will they have hope. Therefore, you have to live well, for the people of the whole world, not for any one person. ”

Zhang Fei shook his head as if he didn't understand, and asked rhetorically: "It's easy to say what you say, but aren't Zilong and Meng Qi around you also loyal to you?" How can this be explained? ”

Ao Lie smiled: "You are wrong again, they are not loyal to so-and-so. It is the tens of millions of people under the rule of Yan State. Imagine, if a certain is a heinous and despicable and shameless person, do you think Zilong and they will still be willing to be driven by a certain person? Therefore, a certain is just the leader of the people of Yan Kingdom. X's every move represents the intention of tens of millions of people, and even X-X himself doesn't care about the position of King Yan at all, and X-so is only one of the people of Yan Kingdom. It's just a special member. ”

Ao Lie's thinking comes from later generations, so he has an obvious idea of "the people are noble and the king is light", and it is under the domination of this thought. Ao Lie was able to single-handedly establish the huge Yan Kingdom, so that thousands of people in the Yan Kingdom would be proud and proud of being the people of the Yan Kingdom.

Ao Lie didn't expect Zhang Fei to understand his thoughts, for Zhang Fei, who was nervous and martial, it was really difficult to understand this truth. The reason why he said this to Zhang Fei was just to dispel Zhang Fei's idea of suicide, so that he could understand the truth of staying for the benefit of the people.

After being silent for a while, when Ao Lie felt that Zhang Fei had almost absorbed the truth he wanted him to understand, he asked again: "Yide, what are your plans in the future?" Zhang Fei raised his head and said very blankly: "I don't know the way, I want to go back to the eldest brother, but I know the way, I can't go back, the eldest brother no longer recognizes me as the third brother." I want to go to my second brother again, but I'm afraid that my second brother will be embarrassed, alas, I don't know where I'm going. ”

Ao Lie lowered his head, thought for a moment, and finally slowly took out a piece of text from his sleeve, handed it to Zhang Fei, and said in a low voice: "This is Liu Bei's letter to the world, you ...... Check it out. Zhang Fei took the text, read a few words, and suddenly tore the text to pieces like crazy, roaring in his mouth, and two huge tears slipped from his eyes.

Zhang Fei's reaction, Ao Lie was not surprised at all, because in that text, Liu Bei actually publicly stated that Zhang Fei had committed treason and defected to the enemy, and the crime was not punishable, and Liu Bei officially severed all relations with him, and if they met in the future, they would be an undying enemy.

Such a result was obviously something that Zhang Fei could not bear, but Ao Lie understood Liu Bei's thoughts. Liu Bei didn't want his ugly face to be made public, so he didn't hesitate to cut off his wings, but also to exclude Zhang Fei from his camp, and then detain Zhang Fei with a crime of betraying the country and collaborating with the enemy, so that in the eyes of the world, Zhang Fei preconceived and became a treacherous person, no matter what Zhang Fei said or did, the world would no longer believe him, in this way, Liu Bei's forged image of benevolence and generosity in front of people can continue to be retained. This is Liu Bei's choice, just like sacrificing Pang Tong at the beginning, Liu Bei abandoned Zhang Fei, a sibling brother who had been by his side for nearly 20 years, for the sake of his benevolent image and his own power.

In the Han Dynasty, public opinion was controlled by scholars and literati, and their public opinion pressure was enough to make a person ruined overnight, just like the media of later generations, their lace news reports on any star could wipe out the star's bright star. And Liu Bei is like a star in later generations, although he now has strong financial resources and enough soldiers, but no matter how big he is, for the sake of long-term interests, he doesn't want to and can't offend those media who say anything. It is reasonable to sacrifice Zhang Fei, not to mention that in Liu Bei's opinion, Zhang Fei has long been separated from him, so it is not too difficult to make the decision to abandon Zhang Fei.

Silently picking up the fragments of silk cloth torn by Zhang Fei, Ao Lie sighed and said to Zhang Fei: "Liu Bei, it's not worth your follow. He has made a choice between your brothers, and now it is time for you to make a choice. If you are willing to go back, and do not say a word, I will send you out of the city at once; If you don't want to go back, the position of General Yan will always be reserved for you. Think about it. ”

After saying that, Ao Lie turned around and walked out of the room. Although he really wanted to get Zhang Fei, he also knew that this kind of thing was not urgent, and he still had to let Zhang Fei think about it clearly and make a decision in his heart. When I walked to the door. Ao Lie suddenly stopped, and said without looking back: "By the way, Cao Cao's claw Huang Feidian is now your mount, it is feeding in the stable of Yanwang Mansion, if you want to go, it can help you return to Chengdu as soon as possible." ”

Looking at Ao Lie's distant back, Zhang Fei's eyes blurred again. This time, I was not sad and crying because I was abandoned by Liu Bei, but because I was impressed by Ao Lie's magnanimity and open-mindedness. Anyway, no matter how good Zhang Fei and Ao Lie's personal relationship is, they are always in two different camps. But since he saw him for the first time more than ten years ago, Ao Lie has opened his heart to his three brothers, and has repeatedly helped, so that his three brothers have their own team. With the capital of smiling and proud of the world, no matter what Ao Lie thinks in his heart, even if he is just trying to get his own sincerity. But this care is real, more than ten years like a day, who can say that this insistence will be fake? Besides, Ao Lie knew that letting him go would be tantamount to adding a strong opponent to him, but he still wanted to give himself a good horse like Huang Feidian, how could he not move Zhang Fei?

At this moment, Zhang Fei's heart was no longer as firm as before, and began to sway, maybe Liu Bei hurt him too deeply, maybe Ao Lie was too good to him, maybe it was both, in short, in the next three days, Zhang Fei finally made a difficult decision after careful consideration, he wanted to tell Ao Lie about this decision in person.

The morning sun climbed into the sky again, dispelling all the darkness of the night, bringing light and hope to the people. Ao Lie came to Zhang Fei's courtyard as always and started his morning exercise in the morning sun. Today, Ao Lie practiced marksmanship, the heavy overlord gun flashed with golden light under the reflection of the rising sun, and in Ao Lie's hands or picked, or stabbed, or chopped, or chopped, and the agility was abnormal. In every move and style, it seems that the heaven and earth are in harmony, and the avenue is infinite.

After practicing a set of Breaking Formation Overlord marksmanship, Ao Lie put away his gun and breathed, gently closed his eyes, and experienced the harvest and perception when he practiced the gun just now. This is Ao Lie's habit of practicing martial arts, every time he has to carefully think about the gains and losses and summarize the experience after the merit, so that his perception of martial arts will be improved little by little, and the effect of accumulation will be achieved.

Squeak –

The door of the room was suddenly opened, and Zhang Fei's majestic figure appeared outside the door. Hearing the sound of pushing the door, Ao Lie opened his eyes, and then looked at Zhang Fei with a smile. In the past few days, he will go to Zhang Fei's courtyard every day to practice martial arts, but Zhang Fei has never opened the door to meet him, today since he opened the door, he must have made a decision in his heart, no matter what decision he makes in the end, Ao Lie will bless him.

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Fei finally spoke: "You have to promise me two conditions, and I will follow you in the future!" ”

"You say." The smile on Ao Lie's face did not change in the slightest, but there was a hint of joy in the plainness.

Zhang Fei stretched out a thick finger and said, "First, I will never use a knife against my eldest brother, and I will never interfere in the affairs between you and my eldest brother!" ”

"Good!" Ao Lie agreed without thinking about it.

Stretching out a finger again, Zhang Fei continued: "Second, if my eldest brother regrets it one day, you can't stop me when I go back." ”

"No problem." Ao Lie's answer was still very happy.

Seeing that Ao Lie didn't hesitate at all, and agreed to his conditions very happily, Zhang Fei couldn't help but sigh, although he didn't want to admit it, but he helplessly found that whether it was his character or mind, Ao Lie was much higher than his former eldest brother Liu Bei, perhaps it was because of these rare and valuable qualities embodied in Ao Lie that the five tiger generals, eight good generals, and nine all-rounders of Yan Kingdom would unswervingly follow him.

With a touch of his robe, Zhang Fei no longer hesitated, knelt down on one knee in front of Ao Lie, and said majestically: "Zhang Fei greets King Yan!" ”

On the same day, Ao Lie held a meeting of ministers to celebrate Zhang Fei's joining. The civil and military officials of Yan Kingdom are no strangers to Zhang Fei, especially Lu Bu, Zhao Yun and others, who have fought with Zhang Fei and can be regarded as very familiar with each other, so there is nothing wrong with this banquet, and everyone welcomes Zhang Fei. At the banquet, Ao Lie announced in public that Zhang Fei was canonized as a fighting general, and he was crowned Henghou, ranking above the eight good generals, and was in the same column as the five tiger generals.
