Chapter 19: Qi Zhen's Conspiracy
Liang Sicheng looked at Gongsun Zhan's expression from the side, and he was still wondering where Qi Zhen had gone.
Tang Yi looked at the decoration of the room a little boredly, and didn't seem to care about the tension between the two sides.
Gongsun Zhan didn't speak, Liu Bei naturally couldn't just wait, so he thought about it again and said, "General Gongsun, I don't know if I was asked to come, but there is something important to discuss?" ”
The problem is still the same question, but the title has changed from Brother Gongsun to General Gongsun.
Gongsun Zhan raised his eyelids, glanced at Liu Bei, and then waved his hand.
The sound of chains outside the door was loud.
Several soldiers detained Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun and walked into the main hall.
All three were disheveled and disheveled, as if they had just experienced a fierce battle.
Especially Zhao Yun, a spiritual guy who was originally as white as jade, was already blue and swollen at this time, and he didn't know what happened, but he was beaten very lightly.
"Liu Xuande, have I ever treated you badly?" Gongsun Zhan didn't ask these people to kneel, looked at Liu Bei and said coldly.
"It's... Where to start? Liu Bei's heart was awe-inspiring, and he still pretended to be shocked and said.
"Since I have asked you to wait to go to Qingzhou, I have given you the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, but you lured my own army generals first, and killed the lieutenant colonel of our army later, and now you are taking advantage of the situation to enter the prison at the expense of robbery, why, is it really my Gongsun Zan who does not dare to kill people?!"
A domineering momentum erupted from Gongsun Zhan's body with these words, and everyone was shocked.
"General Gongsun, there must be some misunderstanding in this, don't be a villain!" Liu Bei was really a little flustered this time, and hurriedly explained.
"Misunderstanding? Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were all tied up in the government, how do you explain it? Gongsun Chan sneered.
"A certain family just can't get used to you detaining General Zhao, and it has nothing to do with anyone else!" Zhang Fei said with a big grin, his eyes widening like copper bells.
"Oh? I can't see that the two of you are so anxious and righteous people, okay, Liu Bei, let me ask you, do the two of them act under your orders? If you admit it, I will punish you alone, and if you don't, then both of them will die, and you can decide for yourself. ”
After Gongsun Chan finished saying this, he stopped saying and waited quietly for Liu Bei's answer.
Liu Bei looked at Guan Zhang and the others with a complicated expression, and said painfully: "Hey! How did the two virtuous brothers end up like this? ”
In Liu Bei's view, Guan Zhang and Zhang are both talented generals, not to mention their strong martial arts, with their unyielding temperament, how could they be willing to be captured alive by the other party?
At this time, even if it was as noisy as Zhang Fei, it quieted down, and everyone was waiting for Liu Bei's choice.
Time seemed to have passed, and it seemed that only a moment had passed, Liu Bei sighed heavily, hugged his fists at Gongsun Zhan and said: "General Gongsun, when the young man came to the post house just now, I said that my three brothers went out, and I still want to wait in the post house for the three of them to come back and meet the general together, as for where they went, and why did they appear in your mansion, Xuande...... I really don't know. ”
Guan Yu closed his eyes slightly.
Zhang Fei stared at Liu Bei in disbelief.
Liang Sicheng touched his nose.
Tang Yi estimated that he was tired of studying the pillars, so he turned his head and began to look at the beams.
"My grandson is ashamed to be in the same door with you."
As soon as the momentum released by Gongsun Chan was relaxed, the tense atmosphere in the field just now disappeared in an instant.
"Come on, untie the two heroes of Guan Zhang." Gongsun Chan commanded.
"Tie up this shameless Liu Bei for me!" He went on to say.
"Hey! General Gongsun, why is this?! Liu Bei obviously didn't understand why things had taken a turn for the worse they were now, and hurriedly asked.
"Want to know? I'll find someone to answer your question. Gongsun Chan glanced at him, and then with two points of respect in his tone, he whispered to the back of the screen: "Mr. Qi, please come out." ”
Mr. Qi?
Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, as if he felt that he had misheard.
Mr. Qi!
Qi Zhen walked out from behind the screen with a dark face, looking at Liu Bei with regret in her eyes.
"What, don't you understand?" Qi Zhen asked Liu Bei.
Liu Bei's face was panicked, and he shook his head slightly, not caring about the soldiers who tied him up behind him.
Qi Zhen first saluted Gongsun Zhan with a fist, and then arched his hand to everyone in the audience before he spoke: "Big brother, we are very disappointed in you. ”
Tang Yi on the side yawned boredly and found a place to sit down.
Liang Sicheng saw Tang Yi like this, and he also sat next to her, staring at the field, unwilling to let go of any details.
"Just when the second brother and the third brother went to rescue General Zhao, I found General Gongsun and confessed that I killed those captains." Qi Zhen said softly, "General Gongsun is generous and doesn't care. ”
Gongsun Zhan's face was expressionless, and he didn't seem to hear what Qi Zhen said.
"The second brother, the third brother and General Zhao accompanied me in a play, and I also suffered some flesh and skin for this." Qi Zhen looked at the three of them apologetically, but heard Guan Yu speak: "What is it to let the two of me recognize the true face of a person, and endure some hardships?" ”
"If you bow to the law and confess your sins for these brothers, General Gongsun will not only not blame you, but will also praise you for your righteousness." Qi Zhen looked regretful, "It's a pity." ”
"Why have you trapped me in the state of unkindness and injustice, have I done anything that is not worthy of my brother? Why is that?! Liu Bei finally couldn't protect the last trace of self-restraint at this time, and said with all his might.
"Since you agreed with me to go to the camp outside the city to kill people, and from the beginning of the relationship between General Zhao and General Gongsun, this matter has been doomed." Qi Zhen shook her head.
This sentence did not come out of Qi Zhen's mouth, but through the spiritual communication skills, it sounded directly in Liu Bei's heart.
"But you proposed it, and you did it, and you arranged all the arrangements, why should it be counted on my head!?" Liu Bei had already lost his sense of proportion, and he didn't care where Qi Zhen's words came from, he shouted loudly, and his words were already crying.
"Because you have the same friendship with Gongsun Zhan, because you are the queen of King Jing of Zhongshan, because you are the eldest brother, are these reasons enough?" It's still heart-to-heart communication, and he doesn't want others to hear these words.
"Second brother and third brother, this Qi Zhen wolf's ambition, you must not believe what he says!" Liu Bei turned his head and yelled at Guan Zhang and the others.
"Come on, put Liu Bei in a cell pending trial." Gongsun Chan commanded lightly.
His own soldiers escorted Liu Bei to the cell, and the silence naturally returned to the room.
"General, Liu Bei can't be killed." Qi Zhen said directly to Gongsun Zhan.
"Why?"
"If it becomes a big thing, Liu Bei's identity will still be of some use, and it can be used as a banner for us to unveil the pole, in addition..."Qi Zhen paused, "After all, they are sworn brothers, please be merciful." ”
Gongsun Chan pondered for a long time and nodded.
"But what about the six lieutenants who died in Bai Mayi?" Gongsun Chan then asked.
"Aren't there six people here?" Qi Zhen seemed to have thought of a solution a long time ago, and said with a smile.
Gongsun Zhan looked at Qi Zhen and suddenly showed a smile: "Mr. Qi is so calculating. ”
"Where, General Gongsun still has the capacity to accommodate people." Qi Zhen clenched his fists and said.
Everyone watched the two talk happily, but they didn't understand what was going on.
"Zilong, in the future, after following Mr. Qi before and after the saddle, I don't dare to fall into the prestige of the Youzhou army." Gongsun Chan said to Zhao Yunlang.
Zhao Yun was confused, but still answered.
"Today, you will go to the post house to rest, and report to the camp outside the city early tomorrow morning." Gongsun Chan then said to Qi Zhen.
"Obey." Qi Zhen nodded.
…………
Returning to the inn in Youzhou City and gathering together, Qi Zhen finally spoke, solving the doubts that had been lingering in everyone's hearts.
The previous things were all done according to the plan discussed by everyone, and there is no need to say much, but from the moment Qi Zhen began to touch the camp outside the city to kill people, this matter is destined to have some problems.
Naturally, it is the part that Liang Sicheng suspects.
plotting against Zhao Yun, plus the killing of six school captains, these two things can only be counted on the head of a group of people in the final analysis, and Gongsun Chan will not allow such a thing to happen no matter what.
No matter how good Liu Bei's friendship with his classmates was, and how insignificant Zhao Yun was in his heart, this matter would not be tolerated by Gongsun Zhan.
It is hard to say whether Gongsun Chan would really believe that Zhao Yun would slaughter six captains for his party and even premeditate to lead troops to rebel, at least Qi Zhen didn't believe it.
But someone must always be responsible for this matter, otherwise he will be a generation of princes in vain.
Therefore, it has become inevitable to detain Zhao Yun, and it has naturally become natural to take the opportunity to detain everyone.
In other words, Qi Zhen gave Gongsun Chan a reason to act like this.
The next robbery in the government is due to two considerations, one is that in order to imprison Zhang and Zhao, the three must have an opportunity to be closely united.
Presumably, when the three of them get together, they will have a revolutionary friendship that is extremely difficult to part.
On the other hand, Qi Zhen must meet Gongsun Chan and let him know his ability.
Yes, this is the most important reason for Qi Zhen's trip.
It is really difficult to take away three thousand white horse righteous servants in Gongsun Zhan's base camp with Zhao Yun alone.
If you can't do it, it's better to use another method.
Therefore, after Qi Zhen revealed his ability that did not exist in this world at all, he made Gongsun Chan a god, and even if he confessed all his crimes, he did not arouse the slightest hatred of Gongsun Chan.
Because he knew what Qi Zhen's ability really represented.
Another and more important point is that if Qi Zhen is willing, he does have the ability to kill himself at any time.
Even if his face was not revealed, Qi Zhen could feel his awe-inspiring mentality at that time.
From this point of view, Qi Zhen is still cheating, but this time she relies on her own talent.
Soldiers, give! Official, give! I want Zhao Yun, give!
