What happened in Chengdu City has long been spread by strangers, Pang Yuan has been staring at Chengdu City, Liu Yan's illness and death is a good time for Chengdu to surge, and it is also an important opportunity for Liu Bei to enter Shuzhong, at this time, as long as he creates a crisis in Shuzhong, then Liu Bei has an excuse to help his nephew Liu Zhang, as for how to occupy the magpie's nest after entering, there are many ways, as long as you are thick-skinned, there is no problem at all.

Pang Yuan was urging Liu Bei to instigate Zhang Liang to take the opportunity to invade Bajun and Zitong, and it was best to take down the Sword Pavilion, who knew that at this moment, a famous guy suddenly arrived at Shangyong, saying that he was going to come to Xiangyang to meet Liu Bei and discuss important matters.

As soon as Pang Yuan heard his name, he immediately understood something, some time ago he had been buying news about Zhang Song, Huang Quan, Yan Yan and others from players in Chengdu, especially Zhang Song, the guy who sold Xishu to Liu Bei, will he continue to go back to the old road in history?

This question is not easy to answer, why did Zhang Song betray Liu Zhang, Pang Yuan has no way of knowing from simple historical records, but from the perspective of human nature, it is nothing more than unwillfulness and for his own ambitions, etc., Zhang Song is extremely ugly, but his talent is amazing, it is said that he has the ability to never forget, this kind of person's character must be very neurotic, and if he hates a person, he will do everything.

Therefore, it will not be strange for him to do that kind of thing, through the investigation of Zhang Song's intelligence, Pang Yuan is sure that Zhang Song did not mix well in Chengdu, and everyone knows that he has a bad relationship with Liu Zhang, now that Liu Yan is dead, can Zhang Song really assist Liu Zhang? This is obviously impossible.

In view of this, Pang Yuan immediately asked to see Liu Bei. Send all the information he got from Chengdu to Liu Bei.

"Is this guy really ugly? How ugly is that? It's going to make people hate it when they see it1

Pang Yuan looked at Liu Bei's curious look and smiled: "It's very ugly, it is said that the forehead is sunken and the head is tipped." With a nose and teeth, some strangers said that they vomited breakfast all over the ground after watching it, and some people said that they were shocked to find out that they were a beautiful man after watching it1

"Haha, it's really ugly, and it might be really annoying to look at such a person every day.1

"But he is also very talented, not only proficient in the scriptures, but also said to have the ability to remember and memorize like a stream, if you put his talent and his appearance together, which one would you see first?"

Of course it's talent.1 Liu Bei replied almost without thinking about it.

"Huh. Adults are worthy of being talented people. This Zhang Song's intelligence lord also saw that this person was still useful under Liu Yan, although he was not treated well by his colleagues, but the status of Yizhou was not low. ”

"What is Fuqing talking about? Do you want me to woo this person? Isn't it good for him to do other driving in Yizhou? Why did it come to us? ”

"My lord, the problem is that Liu Yan is dead, and the relationship between Liu Zhang and Zhang Song is not good."

"So what? How can you harm the public because of your own likes and dislikes?

Pang Yuan looked at Liu Bei, who was taken for granted, and didn't speak for a long time. In any case, Liu Bei actually has all the qualities that a superior person should have, and knows what is important and what is public and private.

"What's the matter, why does Fuqing look at me like this, isn't what I said right?"

"Your Excellency, you are right, and you naturally think so and follow it, but the problem is that there are not many people like you, even if you count the current people, there are people who can have such thoughts and practices as adults. There may only be three or four people, and Liu Zhang is obviously not among them. ”

"Oh!?" Liu Bei was a little flattered. It is rare to hear Pang Yuan praise people, and the people Pang Yuan praises are all dragons and phoenixes among people, and he didn't expect that this honor would also fall on his head, Liu Bei couldn't help but feel very comfortable: "Who is Fuqing talking about?" ”

"Fang Zhiwen is undoubtedly such a person, he can put down his power, and his prejudice can naturally be put down."

Liu Bei nodded, there were so many elites gathered around Fang Zhiwen, obviously, he was indeed a generous person.

"Sima Fang is one, he even forbade his own son, it can be seen that he is a person who forgets his selfishness, so he can achieve great things."

"Not bad! Indeed it is1

"In the end, Cao Cao can barely be counted as one, but when Cao Cao also has a small family, he can't stand it when others expose his shortcomings."

"Hehe, I heard that Zhang Chao is now a rich man, and Wang Yun, Tao Qian, and Han Fu are all writing books behind closed doors at home, what a waste of talents1

"Yes, Cao Cao's weapon is still 1 smaller

"But Fuqing, do you say this has anything to do with Zhang Song?"

"Yes, Zhang Song can still mix under Liu Yan, but it will definitely not work under Liu Zhang, we can understand it so far away from Chengdu, with Zhang Song's cleverness, there is no reason not to understand this, so Zhang Song has the idea of finding another master."

"I heard that Liu Biao has been very active in Chengdu recently, could this have something to do with Zhang Song?"

"It's hard to say, maybe there is, maybe not, just look at what Zhang Song is here to do1

"Oh, that's true, but Fuqing you're here specifically to talk about this?"

"Well," Pang Yuan nodded solemnly: "The subordinates came today, just hoping that the lord can befriend Zhang Song with a heavy courtesy, Zhang Song is ugly, his behavior is not very disorderly, and he is not liked by his colleagues, his personality must be quite distorted, and the intelligence shows that even their own brothers do not interact with each other, which shows that this person's temperament is quite narrow-minded." ”

"That's true."

"A person with a narrow temperament will be very easy to hold grudges, but it is also very easy to have feelings about the death of those who value him as a confidant, do you understand?"

Liu Bei blinked his eyes and said: "I understand if I say this, if Zhang Song is talented, I will definitely not mind his appearance and subtleties, but there is no need to be so solemn in this matter, and he may not have that kind of thought1."

"No, my lord, don't underestimate Zhang Song's role, he is not only a talent, but also a talent who is familiar with the geography of the mountains and rivers in Shu, and the sophistication of the people, if he helps, the time for adults to take down Shuzhong will be greatly shortened, and the difficulty of governing Shuzhong will be greatly reduced. The benefits of this are comparable to hundreds of thousands of troops. No matter how much you take it, you can't pay too much attention to it1

Liu Bei's eyes lit up, and Pang Yuan's words lit a fire in Liu Bei's heart, so the opportunity to enter Shu in the west has come? !

Two days later, Zhang Song really arrived in Xiangyang, Liu Bei pulled his civil and military ministers, and went to the city to greet Zhang Song together, this scene is a bit exaggerated. But for people like Zhang Song, this is definitely the best way.

Sure enough, Zhang Song was very ugly, but he didn't see any trace of disgust and resistance on Liu Bei's face who came to greet him, and Liu Bei greeted him very warmly, like an old friend, shushing and asking for warmth. Extremely welcoming.

However, among the civil and military generals on the side, many people dislike Zhang Song very much, but the more this is the case, the more it brings out Liu Bei's difference.

Zhang Song was welcomed into Xiangyang, and Liu Bei personally held a banquet for Zhang Song to receive the wind, and the wine passed three rounds. Zhang Song wiped his mouth with his sleeve and said: "Lord Liu's name is known all over the world, and Lord Liu's virtue is praised by everyone. Why is Lord Liu so favorable? Can you say so? ”

Many of the ministers who sat with him secretly pouted, this Zhang Song really didn't know how to raise the lord of Ai so favorably, you were arrogant instead, and kicked your nose in the face! I don't look at your dignity, I really think I'm a character.

Liu Bei smiled and said: "Ziqiao is too humble, I heard that Ziqiao is the number one talent in Shu, I didn't want to make progress when I was young, neglected my studies, and when I was old, I joined the army again, which is considered a waste." But I respect talented people the most, I like talented people the most, and when I see talented people, I can't walk on this foot! Ziqiao is talented, it's my luck to be able to make friends1

Zhang Song's heart blossomed, but his face collapsed as much as possible: "Lord Liu's name of loving talents has also been heard in Yizhou, but he is frightened, and he is afraid that he will not be able to enter the eyes of adults." And this appearance is even more displeasing to people, and I am afraid that all of you here will not have a good appetite today1

Listening to Zhang Song's sour words, Liu Bei was secretly happy in his heart, fortunately, Pang Yuan took precautions for himself first, otherwise his appetite might not be better.

"Hehe, Ziqiao said with a smile, I only saw the eye-catching talent on Ziqiao's body, and I didn't think what Ziqiao looked like."

"Adults are good at measuring things, but haven't you heard of your reputation?"

"Oh, Ziqiao is talking about the disease of widows, that's just a small section, but if Ziqiao is good about this, I can also send a few beauties to Ziqiao, don't go out to look for it, wouldn't it be better to hide Jiao in the golden house."

"Haha, Lord is really different, My Lord, you can wait for a while, can you please ask the Lord to avoid the table and talk 1

Liu Bei raised his eyebrows and glanced at Pang Yuan, Pang Yuan nodded quietly, Liu Bei replied with a smile: "Since Ziqiao is concerned about official business, then go to the back hall first, please use it yourself, don't wait." ”

Liu Bei took Zhang Song, only Chen Zhi accompanied him to the back hall, Liu Bei retreated left and right, Zhang Song waited for Liu Bei to sit down, but did not sit down, but bowed solemnly and gave a salute, so panicked that Liu Bei quickly got up and returned the salute.

"Ziqiao, what does this mean?"

"My lord, this gift is a thank you for your insight. Since his debut, Song has never met such a feeling of acquaintance with adults, and his heart is moved, and he hates to know it early1

"Ziqiao, don't be like this, Ziqiao is known to the world, and fools don't know because they are clumsy."

"Hehe, exactly! The Lord is the Master, and Song has the heart to follow, but he is afraid that he will come empty-handed, and it will not become a respect, so Song has brought a generous gift to the Lord1

"Generous gifts!? Why do you need to be like this, why do you need to be like this, as long as Zi Qiaoken helps me, I am already in the shadow of my ancestors, and I am fortunate in this life1

"Hehe, my lord misunderstood, you look at 1

As he spoke, Zhang Song took out a square cloth bag from his arms, Zhang Song held it with both hands, bent down and handed it to Liu Bei, Liu Bei looked solemn and reached out to take it.

"Sir, please open it and see 1

Liu Bei slowly opened the cloth bag, which was a neatly folded oilcloth, and after slowly unfolding it, Liu Bei's eyes widened, this is a fine map of Shuzhong, and there are garrisons and material storage places on it, pass paths, population tribes, etc., which are outrageously detailed!

Liu Bei raised his head and looked at Zhang Song in surprise, Zhang Song looked proud: "My lord, no, my lord, this is the whole map of Xichuan, the generous gift from his subordinates, it is Yizhou 1 to be continued...
