Outside the gate of Zhang Fei's manor, a man in a patched jute cloth shirt was looking forward to the closed door in front of him.

"Why haven't you come back yet?"

"Do you recognize my identity as a straw sandal?"

"That's not supposed to be..."

"Except for the son of a family who seems to have an extraordinary identity, the other two, one is a 'butcher' and the other is a 'stall household', so they shouldn't look down on me..."

Liu Bei Ming put on a humble gentleman's face, standing quietly outside Zhang Fei's manor, but he was secretly pondering in his heart.

Without him, it's just that the time spent by the subordinate who went to report the news was a little long.

......

And when Liu Bei was tormented by the sun, there was a different scene in the manor.

"Come on, come on, Yide, Yunchang, drink!"

Under the shade of the tree, three desks are placed here, and Lu Qizheng and Zhang Fei and Guan Yu are very happy to exchange funds.

After drinking and drinking, Zhang Fei said to Lu Qi with some hesitation: "Ziyi, then Liu Xuande has been standing outside the park for nearly half an hour, since we have decided not to meet him, why not let him leave?" ”

At the same time, Guan Yu on the side was also a little puzzled, and secretly thought to himself: "Could it be that Ziyi and that Liu Xuande have an enmity?" ”

On the other hand, Lu Qi, after a glass of wine, saw that both of them were looking at him with some doubts, so he laughed softly: "Do you know what the background of this Liu Xuande is?" ”

"Oh?"

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu raised their eyebrows when they heard this, and a trace of confusion suddenly appeared on their faces.

Seeing this, Lu Qi didn't want to do Tibet, so he said directly:

"I heard that Liu Xuande was originally the son of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, after King Jing of Zhongshan, if it is true, he is the prince of the Han family."

"Huh?!"

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, who heard the words, were shocked!

"Since Ziyi knows his identity, why else..."

At the end of Zhang Fei's speech, he stopped talking.

Guan Yu on the side was still frowning: "Ziyi just said, 'If it's true', could it be..."

"It seems that Yun Chang pays more attention to details."

When Lu Qi heard this, he chuckled lightly.

Then, moving on to the two:

"Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan, liked wine in his life and had more than 120 sons. And it is believed that the princes and kings should listen to music and enjoy singing and dancing beauties. ”

"Therefore, they are unwilling to take more care of political affairs, and let the areas under their jurisdiction develop at will."

"There is not much good word of mouth among the people."

"It's not an exaggeration to call it 'Alexandre Dumas.'"

"On the other hand, Liu Bei, let's not mention whether his ancestor is Liu Sheng, just himself."

"When I was young, I worshipped the great Confucian Lu Zhi as my teacher at the same time as Gongsun Zhan, but I didn't like to read, but I liked dogs and horses, music, beautiful clothes, and paid attention to the external skin."

"Therefore, I am disgusted by Lu Zhi."

"After completing his studies, Gongsun Zhan became a general, but Liu Bei returned to Zhuo County alone."

"From this point alone, it can be seen that this person is a man who is outside the gold and jade, and he is defeated in it!"

"Let's talk about his family, it was quite good earlier, his father died early, and his mother worked hard, but after Liu Bei returned from school, he didn't want to make progress, but he still couldn't get rid of those bad habits, and his daily expenses were huge."

"Even if I occasionally earn some money, I use it for my own use, and I don't do much filial piety."

"Until now, my family is in the middle of the road, and I make a living by selling straw sandals."

"Think about it, if you are really a member of the Han family, and you have the title of Confucianism as a teacher, you go to Luoyang when you are a teenager and meet the Son of Heaven, how can you not achieve a career?"

"Not to mention anything else, it's also a good thing to let your mother grow old and rely on her!"

"But if you look at his situation now, you can recognize that this person is probably just a person who only knows pleasure and has no ambitions."

“...”

After Lu Qi said it, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu were instantly stunned!

"Yes, if I, Zhang Fei, have such an opportunity, I'm afraid that I have already achieved some fame, how can I be like him, or sell straw shoes for a living!"

"No wonder Ziyi didn't wait to see this Liu Bei before, this kind of bastard who eats and waits for death, there is really no need to make friends."

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu were full of agreeing words.

"Not really."

But he never thought that Lu Qi said another situation.

"Oh? Is there any merit in this son? ”

"Nature."

"Ziyi come quickly, every time I listen to Ziyi's words, we can always benefit a lot!"

"Don't worry, wait for me to tell."

After Lu Qi waved his hand with a smile, he continued:

"Although Liu Bei doesn't have much of an outstanding position at present, it doesn't mean that he doesn't have a sense of power in his heart."

"A person who has no worries from his family background to the fall of the middle way at this time must be a little unwilling in his heart."

"But what he did before was to persuade all those who were willing to carry him away."

"But if there is a good time, this person does not necessarily have no development."

"For example, cholera is about to happen in a month."

"You can imagine, if you wait for that Liu Xuande, how will you seize this opportunity?"

"This..."

Seeing that Lu Qi was taking the school examination in turn, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu were a little caught off guard.

“...”

After the two thought for a moment, Zhang Fei seemed to have a flash of inspiration and said in advance:

"If I am that Liu Xuande, and I will wait until the cholera starts, go to Luoyang, and meet the Son of Heaven, even if I don't say anything else, just with the title of that great Confucian, I must be able to find an official and a half-position, and at the same time go to various places to make meritorious achievements and seek that low-hanging fruit!"

"Yide is right, what about Yun Chang? Have an idea? ”

Lu Qi smiled and nodded and praised Zhang Fei, then turned his head to look at Guan Yudao.

"If I am that Liu Xuande, I will take advantage of the cholera to go to the land of Gongsun Zhan, in the name of my brother and sister, to jointly plan the achievements of the troubled times, and then make contributions and win the praise of the Son of Heaven!"

Guan Yu revealed everything he thought with a bright eye.

"What Yide said is that by virtue of Lu Zhi's title, he will first win the praise of the Son of Heaven, and then go to suppress the cholera, in order to seek some fame."

"And the law that Yun Chang said is that by virtue of the friendship of the same family, he can get the help of Gongsun Zhan, and use his combat power to suppress cholera and seek fame."

"The ideas of the two of you are good, but Liu Xuande will not act like this."

"Don't worry, wait for me to tell."

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu wanted to speak, but Lu Qi interrupted in advance.

And went on to say:

"As I said before, Liu Xuande has always taken the Han clan as his title, and there is no evidence to verify among the people, so this does not prevent him from using this to enhance his prestige."

"If cholera starts, judging from Liu Xuande's past style, it is more likely that he will lead the rebel army himself, recruit troops and buy horses, and make meritorious contributions."

"First, his teacher doesn't want to see him, if he wants to go to Luoyang to seek fame in the name of a great Confucian, it may backfire, and it will easily lead to being disgusted by Lu Zhi."

"So, this step, he won't go."

"Second, Gongsun Chan is the 'Marquis of Duting' at this time, and he is guarding the frontier and fighting against the foreign races in the north, if Liu Bei goes to Gongsun Zhan's territory, at most he will be appointed as a subordinate general, and he will not receive too much attention."

"It is also unrealistic to want Gongsun Zhan to raise troops or borrow troops from him to suppress the cholera of the Han Dynasty."

"At the same time, Liu Bei is not the kind of person who is willing to live under others, so he will not take the initiative to serve others."

"With the title of a Han clan and a great Confucian disciple, if he establishes a meritorious career, and then lets Lu Zhi speak well in front of the Son of Heaven, then he can obtain a certain amount of fame and fortune."

"It's a pity that he didn't think of a little..."

"Which point?"

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, who were listening, hurriedly asked.

"That is, the eunuch beside the Son of Heaven is in charge at this time, even if he has won a certain amount of credit, he may not get much reward."

"Because, if it is just an ordinary merit, it is even more difficult to reach the ears of the Son of Heaven and make him pay attention to it than to ascend to the sky."

"I see!"

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu realized this, but at the same time, they also thought of their own problems, that is, if they were treated like this when the righteous army helped the imperial court, wouldn't it be a loss to death? !

"Don't worry, I already have a solution to the problem that the two of you are thinking."

"Just wait for the Taiping Road cholera together, then we will wait for the name of the three people, and it will resound throughout the Han!"

......

For a while, until three o'clock in the afternoon, the scorching sun hung in the air, and Liu Bei, who had never drunk or eaten, was hungry and thirsty, so he could only forcibly step forward and began to knock on the door of Zhang Fei's manor:

"Anyone?!"

"Anyone?!"

"I'm Liu Bei!"

"Come and meet the lord of this manor!"

"Why haven't you seen anyone for a long time?!"

"Bang bang!"

Because of his own special physique, the demand for energy is several times greater than that of ordinary people, and he is really a little unbearable if he doesn't drink some spring water with aura for a while.

In particular, the scorching sun above the head, but the higher the strength, the greater the restraint...

The power of nature has always been the number one threat in this world!

......

Inside the estate.

"Sir! Oh no, that Liu Xuande is knocking on the door again! ”

A subordinate walked over with a nervous expression.

Just now, my lord said that he didn't need to pay attention to Liu Xuande outside the door, but the 'bang' knock on the door really affected his lord's reputation, and people should not make any conclusions, so they had to go and tell Zhang Fei again.

"Bang!"

"This Liu Xuande! Our behavior like this is already an indication of our attitude, why are we still so uninteresting?! ”

Zhang Fei has a strong temperament, and he heard that Liu Xuande is still outside the door, and he also disturbed the manor, such behavior is really immoral!

"I'll meet him!"

"If it's still so boring, I'll let him taste Grandpa Zhang's awesomeness!"

After speaking, Zhang Fei got up a little angrily and wanted to go to the gate of the manor.

"Winged Virtue Stay!"

Lu Qi's indifferent words came suddenly.

"Ziyi?"

Zhang Fei froze when he heard this, and the look on his face was also a little confused.

"Yide, since people have to visit, let him in, and we will make it clear to face, so as not to leave people with a mouthful of criticism."

"Good! Go get that scoundrel here! ”

Zhang Fei, who listened to Lu Qi's suggestion, turned around and ordered to his subordinates.

"Yes! Master! ”

The subordinate hurriedly bowed his head and answered.

......

Outside the manor, Liu Bei, who knocked on the door for a long time and no one responded, was a little indignant in his heart at this time!

"What a butcher, he doesn't like to see others like this!"

"I owe it to me, Liu Bei also spent money to buy these drinks and food!"

After Liu Bei scolded a few times, he also stopped knocking on the door just now, looked at the cooked food that was already cold in his hand, and was only unwilling to turn around and leave!

At the same time, I also hold a grudge against Zhang Fei, a butcher!

"I think I, Liu Bei, Liu Xuande, also have the title of a Han clan relative! But he was turned away by a butcher! What a shame! ”

Liu Bei, who felt quite aggrieved in his heart, turned around and started after throwing his sleeves angrily, but before he could advance a few meters, he was stopped by the sound of the door opening from behind.

"Young Master Liu, my lord said, please go into the garden."

After the subordinate opened the door, he shouted towards Liu Bei's back.

"Sure enough! My Liu Bei's reputation in the early years is still there! ”

Liu Bei, who hadn't turned around yet, suddenly had a joyful look on his face!

"What the hell was this Zhang butcher doing just now? Why keep me waiting so long..."

"He and I should be regarded as having no grudges in the past, and there is no grudge in the near future, is it possible that there is something that can't see me for the time being?"

"Yes, that's how it should be!"

Thinking of the strange vision that rose into the sky in Zhang Fei's manor not long ago, Liu Bei made up for it by himself.

"Bei, thank you in advance here!"

After Liu Bei tidied up his clothes, he turned around and made a humble gentleman and thanked his subordinates.

"Don't dare to be! Don't dare to be! Liu Gongzi, please come in, the master is already waiting for you in the courtyard. ”

The subordinate immediately dodged to the side and bowed.

"Okay, please lead the way."

"Okay, Liu Gongzi, please come with me."

After speaking, Liu Bei, under the leadership of his subordinates, went to the compound where Lu Qi and the others were.

......

"Ziyi, your guess just now is too amazing, if it is all in what you say, wouldn't it be able to glimpse the minds of others? No, it should be a prophet! ”

In the manor, I don't know what happened before, but Zhang Fei had a smile on his face at this time, and at the same time there was some disbelief.

"Yide, it's okay, you can see it with your own eyes later, no, isn't he here?"

Lu Qi looked ahead with a smile on his face, and followed Liu Beidao, who was walking here.

And Guan Yu on the side, his expression was also a little strange at this time, but he stood alone beside Lu Qi steadily, and from the interested look in his eyes, it was not difficult to see that he was also thinking about whether the scene that Lu Qi said before would happen!

In this way, the three of them waited for Liu Bei to come with their own concerns.

"Stomp, stomp..."

"Sir, the guest has been brought."

After bringing Liu Bei to the three of them, the next person saluted first.

"Good! You go down first. ”

Zhang Fei responded directly.

"Yes!"
