In the big tent, Dong Zhuo sat on the main seat, surrounded by Dong Zhuo's generals, Zhang Xiu's uncle Zhang Ji was also among them, and there were four people standing below, it was Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhang Xiu who had rescued Dong Zhuo in the chaos just now.

Dong Zhuo was more interested in Zhang Xiu, and when he saw that he was wearing chain mail that only a lieutenant could wear, he asked, "Who are you, why didn't you see you under my command?" ”

Zhang Xiu gave a military salute and said, "The last general Zhang Xiu, the word Boyuan." I only came to the camp yesterday, and now I am the captain of the personal guard under my uncle Zhang Ji. ”

After listening to Zhang Xiu's words, Dong Zhuo smiled and said: "Yuanjiang is so blessed to have such an outstanding nephew." ”

Zhang Xiu replied: "General Dong praised it falsely. ”

Dong Zhuo smiled and nodded, thinking that he agreed with Zhang Xiu, after all, he was the nephew of his right-hand man, and he was no different from being under his command, how could Dong Zhuo not be happy with such a fierce general.

Then Dong Zhuo looked at Liu Bei and the three again, but this time his face became calm, and he spoke with some arrogance, and he didn't ask his name, but asked directly: "What is your current position?" ”

Liu Bei replied: "White body." ”

Dong Zhuo looked at Liu Bei a little contemptuously when he heard this, and then waved his hand and said, "Oh." Then go down. ”

Liu Bei and the three retreated according to their words, Zhang Xiu couldn't help but look at the three of them, but saw Liu Bei's face as usual, Guan Yu squinted his eyes and looked at Dong Zhuo coldly, while Zhang Fei saw that he had a violent look, but he was secretly pulled by Liu Bei. Seeing Liu Bei's face as usual after being slighted, Zhang Xiu secretly admired, and said in his heart: "Sure enough, he is one of the heroes of the late Han Dynasty, Emperor Zhaolie of the Shu Han Dynasty, who can occupy one of the world's thirds, and he is really not light." ”

Liu Bei and the three retreated, but Zhang Xiu was still standing in the hall, Dong Zhuo asked Zhang Xiu to stand behind Zhang Ji, and then asked the sergeant to serve the wine, and then raised the lamp and said to Fan Chou: "This wine is for you to suppress the shock." ”

Fan Chou hurriedly raised his lamp and responded: "General Xie Dong." Then the two of them drank it all.

Dong Zhuo waited for the sergeant to pour the wine, then raised his lamp to everyone and said, "This is the merit of everyone killing the enemy, please." After speaking, everyone also raised their lamps at the same time and drank them all.

Zhang Xiu stood behind Zhang Ji, but when he saw everyone raising their lamps to celebrate, he secretly said in his heart: "Such a defeat is not to visit the sergeant, but to celebrate in the tent?" Zhang Xiu was speechless about Dong Zhuo's behavior. However, Zhang Xiu soon appeared, all the generals in this account were all the henchmen and generals brought by Dong Zhuo from Xiliang, Zhang Xiu guessed Dong Zhuo's plan, but it turned out that it was to win people's hearts at this time.

Zhang Xiu paid special attention to Fan Chou, the original Fan Chou was just an ordinary general under Dong Zhuo, but after such a while, Zhang Xiu saw gratitude in Fan Chou's eyes when he looked at Dong Zhuo, and Zhang Xiu secretly said in his heart: "This Dong Zhuo is really not simple." ”

In front of the big and small generals, there are couches with wine and meat in front of them, and only Zhang Xiu stood behind Zhang Ji, so he smiled and said: "Come on, take the wine and meat from the couch, Bo Yuan has a merit in killing the enemy, how can he stand aside." ”

At this time, Zhang Xiu was remembering Liu Bei and the three outside the tent, and he was worried that he couldn't get out, but now he heard Dong Zhuo's words, so he thought of a plan to get out, and immediately went out and said: "General Dong can't, the last general is just an ordinary captain of the guard, not a general under the general, how can you sit in the same hall with all the adults, but it is against etiquette." ”

Dong Zhuo said with a smile: "Haha, what is polite or disrespectful, I don't talk about this in our army." Thou hast slain the enemy, and thou shalt have given thou wine and meat to eat, so what? ”

Zhang Xiu still arched his hand and said: "General Dong can't, if you let Xiu be in the same hall with all the adults, it will tarnish the reputation of General Dong and your lords, and those scholars will know that it is indispensable to participate." ”

After Dong Zhuo heard this, he smiled and said, "Since that's the case, then let's stop it." But you have merit in killing the enemy, but the general will not reward it, but it has chilled the hearts of many soldiers. ”

After Dong Zhuo finished speaking, the next thin young man dressed as a scribe got up and replied, "Confucianism has a way to solve the general's worries. ”

Dong Zhuo looked at the scribe with interest and said, "Wen is worried and said. ”

The scribe smiled and said, "The general gave Bo Yuan according to the food of the people in the court, and then ordered him to go down to eat, so that the general can not only show that the general will be rewarded for his merits, but also tell the generals and court scholars that the courtesy in the army is also indispensable." ”

Dong Zhuo praised after hearing this: "Wonderful." Then he said to Zhang Xiu: "Bo Yuan, go down, this general will order someone to prepare three times the food and ten urns of good wine with you, you go down and enjoy it, and you will better serve this general in the future." ”

Zhang Xiu secretly slandered in his heart: "Isn't it that Dong Fatzi thinks that if you give me more food and wine, you feel that the reward is increased?" I don't want to think about whether I can eat it. Although Zhang Xiu secretly slandered Dong Zhuo, he remembered that he still owed Zhang Fei a banquet, but Dong Zhuo's increased reward was just enough for the banquet.

Thinking of this embroidery, he immediately bowed to Dong Zhuo and said, "Thank you General Dong for the reward." Then he slowly exited the tent.

After Zhang Xiu withdrew, Dong Zhuo said to Zhang Ji with a smile: "Yuanjiang, you have a good nephew, who is young and has extraordinary martial arts, and knows how to advance and retreat, and has no pride. Hehe, not bad...... Not bad. ”

Zhang Ji replied: "The general has praised it, and Ji thinks that it still needs to be sharpened." ”

Dong Zhuo smiled: "Well, you are also right, young people really need to be sharpened, can they think of a place to go?" ”

Zhang Ji replied: "Naturally, I will serve under the general. ”

Dong Zhuo laughed and said: "Okay, but your uncles and nephews are all under my command but they are easy to be criticized, why don't you recommend them to serve in Jincheng, there are often Qiang people and horse thieves near here, just sharpen it, and then return to the army as a general, how about it?" ”

After hearing this, Zhang Ji replied: "Thank you General Dong for bringing your little nephew." ”

……

Not to mention that the people in the tent continued to drink and feast, and Zhang Xiu withdrew from the big tent, but he found a sergeant and asked: "Can you see the three heroes who rushed into battle to save General Dong today?" ”

It happened that Zhang Xiu asked the sergeant who was rescued by him later, and the sergeant recognized Zhang Xiu and had also seen Liu Bei and the others, so he replied: "Lord Hui, those three heroes are at the gate of the camp, ready to leave." ”

Zhang Xiu heard it, but he gave up the sergeant and immediately ran to the camp gate, fortunately he didn't come too late, and the three of them hadn't left yet, Zhang Xiu immediately shouted: "Three heroes and slow." ”

The three of them didn't notice Zhang Xiu calling them at first, but fortunately, Zhang Fei and Zhang Xiu had answered each other, recognized Zhang Xiu's voice, turned their heads to see Zhang Xiu, and said with a smile: "Hey, big brother, it's Zhang Xiu's kid who is here." "It's like a bell.

Liu Bei stopped and said, "The third brother must not be rude. ”

At this time, Zhang Xiu had already run closer, and naturally heard Liu Bei and Zhang Fei talking, bowed to Liu Bei and the others, and said: "In the next Zhang Xiu, the word Boyuan, haven't asked the names of the three yet?" Although Zhang Xiu knew that the three people in front of him were Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, they still needed to be pretentious if they didn't report their names.

I saw Liu Bei bow his hand and salute back: "Under Liu Bei, the cursive word Xuande." This is Guan Yu, the second brother of Xia Yuyi, and the word cloud is long. This is the third brother Zhang Fei, whose name is Yide. As he spoke, he pointed to the two of them.

Zhang Xiu bowed to the two of them respectively, and the two of them also returned the salute. After being polite, Zhang Xiu said: "The three of you will leave slowly, and please get together in the embroidery tent." ”

After Liu Bei heard this, he hesitated: "This ......"

Zhang Xiu heard Liu Bei's hesitation, so he turned his head to Zhang Fei and said: "You killed thirty more thieves than me, but I lost the gambling game, and now there is a table of wine and food waiting in the tent." After speaking, he said to Liu Bei and Guan Yu: "Since the two of them are the elder brothers of Brother Yide, they naturally go together. ”

As soon as Liu Bei said this, Liu Bei hadn't agreed, but Zhang Fei had already shouted: "Okay, I'm hungry after a big battle." With that, he dismounted.

Liu Bei smiled a little helplessly when he saw it, and said, "In this way, it is my brother who is disturbing Bo Yuan." ”

Zhang Xiu smiled slightly and said, "Three, please." "Lead the way.
