"So, Ziqiao has now determined his choice?"

"Yes, what shall I say...... It was a trip full of surprises. ”

"That's good. Hey, I think I'm a big man, but half of the country has fallen into the hands of the stupid thieves of the Han Dynasty, and one by one they forcibly encroach on the land, which is really embarrassing and unfair. But I'm very happy, I'm really happy, now there are people with lofty ideals even in distant places, who have not forgotten the kindness of the imperial court, and are willing to participate in this great cause of bringing order to order, so why worry about the country's instability. ”

Of course, such words are just words, in fact, everyone knows the real inside story very well, and they are not three-year-old children, who have been up and down in the sea for so many years, even if they were originally immature, they have become young people who dare to face strong enemies now, and they can use the strategies they have learned to use them, even if there are still many immature places, but they also know a lot about the inside story.

However, even if the purpose is not the same, but since we can achieve a satisfactory result between each other while seeking common ground while reserving differences, then what does it matter if we say some polite words, after all, no one must follow anyone in the troubled times, and each other is a two-way choice, even if it is a bond formed by life between each other, it will take an unknown amount of time to truly achieve unconditional trust between each other, in order to have the love engraved in the bone marrow.

This kind of outright exchange of interests may be more reassuring than feelings that have become increasingly difficult to trust.

"Since everyone has no doubts, then I am looking forward to the two of them in Xuchang, and I wish the two of them success, Shun lì deterred Xiaoxiao, and returned the people to a bright future."

"Hehe, Liu Envoy Jun is lenient and benevolent. But he did not lose the right to argue, this true male master, unfortunately did not get the time, and he has been stumbling so far. Nowadays, the beneficial state is dangerous, fertile and fertile for thousands of miles, and the people are rich and the country is rich. If Liu Envoy can seize the opportunity, he can add another arm to the Han family and deter those who have a heart of disobedience. ”

"Hehe, Zhang Ziqiao, Zhang Ziqiao, saying such things in front of me, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, is too suspicious."

"Of course, the minister is a little Meng Lang when he speaks, but Liu Yuanjun is a minister trusted by His Majesty. He is a virtuous person who can stabilize the world for His Majesty, so His Majesty does not think that what he just said is wrong. ”

"Hehe, Liu Junlang and Liu Zi'an are both clans trusted by their father in the past, and they also handed over Youzhou and Yizhou to them, one south and one north, but I don't need to say anything more about the result. In this case, I believe that your ability is stronger than that of Liu Junlang and Liu Zi'an, and I don't think that you will only think about cutting the land and becoming king like Liu Junlang. I am willing to support you in leading your troops away. ”

Gently patted Liu Bei's shoulder. After comforting Liu Bei, whose face was already sweating like pulp, Liu Xie continued:

"I know that Xuande and you have some conflicts with Taiwei Cao on some concepts, and I also know that Gongtai has always kept you in Xuchang just to let you contain Taiwei. But I also know very well that if it weren't for an unsuccessful emperor like me, you would have found a wider space to display your talents. And most importantly......"

"The most important thing is that Liu Bei himself knows that many of his ideas may only be implemented in a corner, if he wants to revive the entire Han Dynasty, maybe Cao Taiwei's idea is more realistic. The practice of Li Zhoumu in the merger of states is also worth learning. ”

"So this time, I am open and honest with you and Ziqiao here, I just want you to understand Xuande that I am not taboo about what Ziqiao said. I am willing to treat you with sincerity, and I don't ask you to repay me with sincerity. I only hope that Xuande can remember that you have the blood that has been passed down from Emperor Gao to you, and I hope that Xuande can remember the aspirations you told me. ”

"陛xià......"

"But Xuande, you don't have to think too much. Even if I ask you to become an arm of the great man who supports me, it doesn't mean that I will give up my efforts, no, it is because I hope that you, as well as those courtiers who still have loyalty in their hearts, I have to work harder to become an emperor worthy of you and will not be abandoned by you and this era! ”

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, Minister Liu Bei, you will definitely not do anything that is ashamed of your ancestors and ancestors."

"I believe in you, and I'll see."

"Hehe, I also believe that Liu Yuanjun will be able to meet His Majesty's expectations. Or if it is someone other than Liu Yuanjun, it is difficult to believe such a statement. Even if you accept your majesty in person, you will regret it in the blink of an eye. ”

"Oh~ I really didn't expect Ziqiao to have such a high opinion of Xuande."

"Of course, after all, it is a person who is identified below, so it naturally needs to be carefully understood."

"This makes me interested, I don't know what Ziqiao thinks of other heroes in this world?"

"But I don't know which important minister His Majesty wants His Majesty to judge one or two?"

"Sure enough, it is worthy of Ziqiao, it is really a human being who cannot be seen. So since Ziqiao is willing to accompany him, let's start with Taiwei Cao. You must know that Taiwei Cao is now nominally my first minister. ”

"Taiwei Cao is naturally an important minister that His Majesty can rely on. It's just that Cao Taiwei has the heart of swallowing the world, everything he thinks and does, and everything he does is also aimed at this, and if he can't keep up with his footsteps, even if he looks back on the old love and lives without worry, he will be immediately and ruthlessly abandoned, and then find a new follower who can keep up with his footsteps. ”

"That includes me, if I can't keep up with him."

"Your Majesty is courageous, but with the minister's observation of Cao Mengde, I'm afraid this is indeed the case."

Ziqiao is straightforward. So next...... Let's talk about Yuan Shao, after all, Ziqiao is from Hebei. ”

“…… Yuan Benchu...... Sure enough, he couldn't hide anything from His Majesty's discernment, but now that His Majesty sees his subordinates, he should know the result, although he was not able to see the general, but he also saw his two sons. ”

"It looks like an unpleasant memory."

"To put it bluntly, even if Yuan Benchu is a hero, he has several sons. Even if it is only afraid that it will be very difficult, not to mention that there are still characters like Liu Yuanjun, Cao Taiwei and Li Zhoumu in this world. ”

"Then if you just talk about Yuan Benchu himself, even if he hasn't really met, he should be prepared before he comes."

"Yuan Shao is fierce and timid, and he is indecisive; Do big things and spare yourself, and forget your life when you see small profits; This generation is not enough. ”

All right. Zhang Song's evaluation of Yuan Shao was obviously still full of anger, and both Liu Xie and Liu Bei could only laugh at it.

"But ......"

As if thinking of something, Zhang Song hesitated for a moment, and it was rare that there was no sharp feeling on that very discordant face, replaced by a smile of sympathy, as if dreaming of a good (lodging) friend (friend) friend.

And Zhang Song's sudden change of face really shocked the two noble men - one is the emperor and the other is the state pastor, I think there should not be many people who can be more noble than the two of them in the whole Han Dynasty.

Of course, although it is surprising, there may be more curiosity in it. After all, even Liu Xie, who was in contact with Zhang Song for the first time, had heard of some things about Zhang Song, such as relying on his extraordinary memory and a sharp mouth to make Chen Gong quite unable to get off the stage, and even made Cao Cao almost burst into a rage and burned his unfinished military book.

It can be said that don't look at Zhang Song's sharpness on his body now, it seems to be very pure, but the sharp mang in his eyes has not converged.

Even if Liu Bei is a man he recognizes and can be regarded as the master. And Liu Xie is also the emperor of the Han Dynasty, but this arrogant man still has strong self-confidence in his own field. And that area is obviously not something that ordinary people can infringe on.

And the experience in Yizhou also invisibly strengthened his paranoia.

Yes, Zhang Song's self-esteem and self-confidence in his field can even be considered paranoid. However, this can only be said to be a very helpless thing, after all, if Zhang Song talks about his personal ability alone, it may not be too exaggerated even if he is called the champion of Yizhou, so Zhang Song's reputation is also quite high in Yizhou, coupled with the strong strength of the Zhang family in Shu County. made it easy for him to become the "don't drive" of the new Yizhou Mu Liu Zhang.

Needless to say, Cheng Yu has been Li Shushi's other driver for a long time, although part of Cheng Yu's power position comes from Li Shushi's bold decentralization (perhaps it can be called lazy and slippery), but as the right-hand man of the state pastor, the theoretical scope of power is still very large. It can be called the first person under the chief officer.

It stands to reason that Zhang Song should be in high spirits and ready to show his strength in office. Maybe Liu Zhang is a little weaker, but that's exactly the case, if he can really make a career, doesn't it seem that he is even more strong.

If there is such a thing as self-confidence, Zhang Song thinks it will not be less than anyone.

It's a pity that Zhang Song, who was full of ambition, was soon shown to be slapped in the face once.

Although the Dongzhou soldiers acted without scruples because they lived in a foreign country, they knew very well where their legitimacy came from, so in the face of the weak Liu Zhang, they naturally couldn't just rally around this lord, but to hold him firmly in their hands, and not give others any chance to exert influence at all.

What about Liu Zhang?

Although Liu Zhang is weak, he is not completely brainless, even if he has no brains, his father Liu Yan is a real old fox in the political arena, how could he not leave Liu Zhang with his own thoughts and experiences before he died.

Therefore, Liu Zhang can respect those Yizhou natives and is willing to give them a prominent position, but when it comes to the real inner circle, it is difficult for those Yizhou people to really squeeze in. After all, on the one hand, there are the local heroes of Yizhou, which have deep roots, and on the other hand, there are Dongzhou soldiers who need their own storage as a legal basis, and it is self-evident which side is more worthy of choice.

Therefore, although Zhang Song's name is very high, it is easy to understand that his actual power is not large.

Although he still maintains respect for Liu Zhang on the surface, Liu Zhang still thinks that Zhang Song is a good decoration, and even the reason why Zhang Song was able to send envoys to various princes this time was because he got Liu Zhang's approval and went out to inquire about the situation - of course, you can also know what status Zhang Song has in Liu Zhang's heart, otherwise can you imagine that Cheng Yu put down the government affairs of the state and went out casually for a year and a half. But in his heart, Zhang Song had already sneered at the lord he served.

Such a person, but now he will respect someone so much, can't it arouse everyone's curiosity?

"There is only one son in Yuan Benchu's family, if he can inherit Yuan Shao, I am afraid that the chaos in this world will continue for a while. No. Maybe Yuan Benchu's delusions were realized with his help, and maybe they wouldn't be delusions. ”

"That's amazing! Yuan Shao would have such a powerful son?! ”

It's just that unlike Liu Xie's surprised expression, Liu Bei showed a thoughtful expression, obviously he seemed to think of something.

"It seems that Liu Yuanjun also seems to know 'that person' very well."

"No, in fact, I don't know much about him, and I can even say that I have seen him occasionally appear when the coalition forces fought with Dong Zhuo in the past. The rest of the time, I have rarely heard from him. If you have a recent impression, it may be that he participated in the battle to defeat the famous general of the Bingzhou Army, but I heard that this battle was mainly planned by Yuan Shao's two sons-in-law. ”

"Will Liu Yuanjun really believe such news?"

“…… I do not know. ”

"Liu Yuanjun is really an honest person, in fact, this matter is also unclear to Song, but Song doesn't think that with the skills of the two children of the Yuan family, he can really make a general like Liyi almost die. After all, one of the two children just had an unrealistic courage, and the other didn't even have such courage, so he could only make promises on the sidelines. ”

"The two Aiqing don't play dumb riddles in front of me anymore, but let me understand this Yuan family hero."

"Actually. This person is also related to this trip, and it can even be said that it is the second task that I took over. ”

"There is even a second copy, why didn't you say it before?"

"It's just that the time hasn't come yet, isn't this just the time to show your majesty now?"

As the night gets darker, you can see a group of lights in the distance, but unfortunately it is not an ordinary family, or at this time, all the lights that can be connected in the vicinity should be the camp of the army. The only thing I don't know may be whether the light belongs to Yuan Shaojun or Cao Caojun. However, no matter which side they are, they probably won't be interested in this flat boat on the water, after all, the navy or something is too far away for these two forces.

Or for the two princes who didn't often use the boat division, the only use of such a thing as a sailor was to transport soldiers, military rations, and various supplies, and as for fighting or something, can you imagine that the tall building ships would fight in a place where the depth was less than three meters at most, and as long as the weather was a little drought, the depth would be directly reduced by half.

But. Even if no one disturbed him, the boat did not intend to stay on the water, and began to turn its bow and head towards the shore.

"Your Majesty, brother, the ship has docked. It's not early, so please rest early. ”

Zhang Sanye's voice is naturally loud, even if he is low-voiced, it still makes people feel that there is a Hong Zhong Dalu ringing in his ears, maybe in a place where there is no temple, the roar of the third master can also be used to wake up people's hearts or something, not necessarily.

However, the third master, who deliberately lowered his voice and used an extremely calm tone, really did not startle the two unwitting nobles, but the originally quite enthusiastic conversation was also interrupted because of this.

Although I didn't have a lot of fun, it made people feel a little unsatisfied, but a few people were also very self-controlled, and they wouldn't really do anything that didn't fit their identity.

Or for the three of them, there is no need to use any strange words and deeds to flaunt their sense of existence, but the down-to-earth appearance can arouse the favor of others, even if Zhang Song, who is quite a bit crazy, at this time he also bowed his hand, looking like a famous man in the late Han Dynasty who knows complete etiquette and is very personable.

Not only does he know all kinds of knowledge and knowledge that are common in any era, he is very talented, and he knows how to scheming, even if he has an unattractive face, if he does not have the anger in his heart, coupled with consistent self-confidence, he is also a man who looks quite pleasing to the eye, and he is indeed a rare talent.

Even with Liu Xie's experience, such a character is quite rare, and he really can't help but feel appreciative, and even has a feeling of "this is the subordinate I want".

[Come out of me!] 】

This sentence rolled back and forth in Liu Xie's throat for a long time, but in the end, he couldn't say it after all.

Since you missed it, if you continue to be unreasonably entangled, I'm afraid that even the original favorability will be lost.

Unconsciously, Liu Xie found that he had found another place that could not be compared with those successful princes - for the discovery of talents, after all, if he could have known that Zhang Song was such a figure earlier, he would not have let Liu Bei contact him alone for so long.

No.

Liu Xie then once again denied what he had just thought, because he realized that he had talked to Zhang Song for a long time just now, but it wasn't until Zhang Song smiled and said goodbye to himself in a very formal tone and demeanor just now that he realized that the other party was extraordinary.

Sure enough, if he wants to become an excellent emperor, an emperor who can turn the tide in troubled times, he needs many, many skills.

But now that I know my shortcomings, I didn't come in vain today.

As a result, a cheerful smile appeared on Liu Xie's face.

"I hope that one day, everyone can drink and chat with the identity and position of Confucianism, which may be more suitable." "Matsu, follow your wishes." (To be continued......)
