Liu Bei, with the support of Huang Hao, climbed the city tower tremblingly, looking at Zhao Yun who was showing off his martial arts below, he was about to shout, but he didn't want a gust of wind to blow, but he caused a continuous cough, and even bent his back more and more. Eight?? One?? Chinese Net ? ? ．? Huang Hao stroked Liu Bei's back lightly while shouting loudly: "General Zhao, Your Majesty's holy drive is here, why don't you come forward to salute?" ”

Zhao Yun had already seen several Yellow Dragon flags in the city, and a group of internal servants hugged Liu Bei out, and before Huang Hao finished shouting, he had already rolled off the saddle and bowed to the ground, and said loudly: "Long live the emperor when he sees my emperor." More than 10,000 soldiers behind him also shouted "Long live" in unison, the momentum shook the sky, the echo was stirring, and it was endless for a long time.

Liu Bei easily stopped coughing, and said as loudly as possible: "Aiqing is flat." When Zhao Yun got up, he said: "I heard that General Zhao played, Aiqing rode alone to retreat Sun Huan's strong army, protect the army, and make outstanding achievements, which is really a great fortune for the country." ”

Zhao Yun hugged his fists and said: "This is all Your Majesty's blessing, and the ministers dare not take credit." When he was humble, he suddenly heard Liu Bei say: "Zhao Yun listens to the seal." Then he hurriedly fell to the ground, and said "Long live." Liu Bei continued: "Zhao Yunzhong fought bravely, did not hesitate to die, and did not hesitate to die, and was appointed as the general of Zhengnan and the counselor of Jingzhou military to show his deeds and encourage the future." Zhao Yun thanked him and got up.

Liu Bei said again: "The general's soldiers and horses will be stationed outside the city, and they will return to Chengdu with me in the near future." Only then did he turn to Zhao Shu who was standing aside and said, "What does Zhao Qing think?" When Zhao Shu heard that Liu Bei had sealed Zhao Yun's official position, he knew that he wanted to use Zhao Yun to suppress himself, so that Zhao Shu could not have bad intentions, which was all expected, and he was not surprised, but said: "Your Majesty Shengming, General Zhao is both civil and military, and he is really a famous general in the world. ”

Liu Bei didn't care whether Zhao Shu was sincere or not, waved his hand to the city, and then with the support of Huang Hao, he got on his own dragon and turned back to the palace. Zhao Yun also followed Liu Bei's will and stationed outside the city with military horses. Zhao Shu and Guo Huai could only smile bitterly again, Liu Bei actually left such a chess piece outside the city, and then borrowed Zhao Shu's two guts, and he didn't dare to act rashly.

It's late June, and the weather is hot, and the heat doesn't dissipate until midnight, and this is the best time to fall asleep. The city of Jingzhou is quiet, only the sleeping palace of Liu Bei, the emperor of Shu Han, still has a low cough from time to time, or he is very sick, or he is old and sleeps less, Liu Bei is still leaning on the collapse at the moment, and he has not slept peacefully. If the emperor doesn't rest, how dare the attendants around him go to sleep? Fortunately, Huang Hao has been a person for a long time, and he has a lot of experience in staying up late, so he can serve Liu Bei without showing his tiredness.

Huang Hao saw that Liu Bei's cough was getting more and more intense, and motioned to the eunuch next to him, and soon served a bowl of soup and medicine. Huang Hao took it in his hand, tested the temperature first, and said, "Your Majesty, let's use some medicine." Liu Bei shook his head and said, "Take it away, the medicine prescribed by Yan Peng can't be eaten." I am a dignified son of heaven, do you really want to be controlled by him? ”

"Your Majesty." Huang Hao persuaded again: "Your Majesty's use of this decoction is only temporarily restricted, but if you don't use this medicine, I'm just afraid that ...... Moreover, Lord Yan may not really have any hands and feet in this medicine, and this medicine has been tried first. ”

Liu Bei coughed violently for a while, and finally reached out to take the medicine bowl, stared at it for a moment, drank it all, and said to Huang Hao: "I don't want to be among the hundreds of officials and ministers, only Qing is very loyal." Huang Hao took the empty bowl, asked someone to take it, and said: "The villain received the great favor of His Majesty, and he should be a picture of the newspaper, and he will not hesitate to break his bones." ”

Liu Bei nodded slightly, due to the rebellion of the Ten Standing Servants, he hated eunuchs all his life, but at this moment, only this eunuch can be trusted, isn't it a great irony? Yan Peng's medicine is indeed effective, and after a cup of tea, Liu Bei's cough gradually stopped, and Huang Hao wanted to serve him to sleep.

After Liu Bei lay down, he suddenly asked: "In your opinion, Zhao Shu, Kong Ming, who is loyal to me?" Huang Hao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, could it be that he had already been aware of his informant to Zhao Shu? He has been serving people for many years, so he naturally knows how to answer, and hurriedly said: "The villain doesn't know state affairs, but His Majesty asked the villain to spread the news of Jingzhou to Prime Minister Zhuge in Chengdu a few days ago. Your Majesty naturally believes that there are more prime ministers, and your majesty says that the prime minister is a loyal minister, that is a great loyal minister. ”

Liu Bei smiled bitterly a few times and said, "I asked you to pass the news to Kong Ming, but I didn't believe Kong Ming. Alas, now that I am in danger, where can I still have someone I can trust? Zhao Yun returned with all his divisions, and I wanted him to accompany him back to Chengdu and leave Jingzhou for the time being. But Zhao Shu was so willing to let me go, and I had to be suspicious. ”

Huang Hao looked at the emperor in front of him, and suddenly felt more pitiful than himself. Huang Hao can also tell Zhao Shu and beg for mercy, with their identity, they naturally won't embarrass a subordinate like themselves. But the emperor is different, he can't deign to bow to his subordinates, and even if he begs for mercy, others may not let him go. This is the sorrow of the emperor's incomparably high cold. Huang Hao didn't know how to respond, so he had to be relieved: "Your Majesty sits on the two rivers and the land of Jingxiang, can it only be in Jingzhou and Chengdu?" Is there not one or two loyal and righteous among the ministers? ”

Liu Bei got up suddenly, and Huang Hao's words broke through the fog that he had been in for many days, although he is now in Jingzhou and the country is in Chengdu, it doesn't mean that he must be in these two places, isn't there still Chen in the White Emperor City? Uncle Chen has been with Liu Bei for many years, and he does not form party friends, does not attach Kong Ming and others, and is much more reliable than Zhao Shu. Liu Bei only enjoyed himself for a moment, but his expression darkened, although he thought of going to White Emperor City, but he didn't have anyone very trustworthy around him now, who could escort him?

Huang Hao saw that Liu Bei was deep in thought, and didn't dare to disturb out loud, so he only took off the dragon robe and gently draped it over his shoulders for him. Liu Bei said suddenly: "You can go to Xuan Yulin Army Governor Wu Yi to come to see the driver." Huang Hao hurriedly nodded and took the order. Wu Yinai is the elder brother of Empress Wu, and he is considered a national relative, although he is now reused by Zhao Shu, he doesn't know if he can be loyal to him. Liu Bei looked at the back of Huang Hao leaving, and suddenly felt extremely empty in his heart......

Soon after, Huang Hao brought Wu Yi to see the driver, but Liu Bei only asked Wu Yi to kneel in front of the collapse, not to make him flat, but he sat upright on the collapse, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep. The night sky is cool, and a refreshing fragrance of flowers can drift in with the wind from time to time outside the window, which is very reverie, but Wu Yi is sweating profusely and is sincerely afraid. Wu Yizi came out to intercede for Zhao Shu in the imperial camp, but was left out by Liu Bei, and now it was Zhao Shu who ordered him to take over the forbidden army and be responsible for Liu Bei's palace guards, how could Liu Bei not be suspicious? Wu Yi is not a fool and can understand that this is not a good errand, so he asked Zhao Shu to resign several times, but he was rejected on the grounds of his relatives. Although Wu Yi himself knew in his heart that it was not Zhao Shu's party, how could he explain it to Liu Bei? Tonight, he had already collapsed to rest, but he was summoned by Huang Hao to meet Liu Bei, knowing that the auspicious was unpredictable, and seeing that Liu Bei had not spoken for a long time, how could he not panic?

The candle gradually burned out, Huang Hao hurriedly replaced it with one, Wu Yi didn't know how long he had been kneeling, he only felt that his legs were numb, and he had lost much consciousness, but he still didn't dare to make a sound; Beads of sweat dripped down his face and fell to the ground, and he didn't dare to reach out to wipe it.

"Aiqing is flat." Liu Bei finally spoke. Wu Yi hurriedly thanked him, but his legs couldn't stand up because he had been kneeling for a long time, but Huang Hao stepped forward to help him before he could barely stand up. Liu Bei looked at Wu Yi's embarrassment, and felt a slight comfort in his heart, after all, he was still the emperor, and he still had a little bit of prestige.

"Since Ziyuan took over the forbidden army, I have been unwell and have never congratulated me. Tonight, I specially invite the general to come and say hello to the general. Liu Bei's faint words frightened Wu Yi even more, and he hurriedly knelt down and said, "Weichen doesn't dare." Weichen knew that his talents were scarce and he could not take on this great responsibility, so he asked General Zhao for his resignation many times, but he was not approved. ”

Liu Bei signaled to Huang Hao again, so that Wu Yi was helped up, and said: "Ziyuan is my master, the important minister of the country, and he refers to the forbidden army, but Zhao Shu also uses people properly." Don't say anything about resignation. Wu Yi had Huang Hao's support, so he had to make a promise.

Liu Bei said again: "The queen is the daughter of the Ruwu clan, and Ziyuan is also a royal nobleman, and I rely on her very much, and she has always been treated well. The general must not let me down. ”

Wu Yi hurriedly replied: "The Wu family is deeply favored by Your Majesty, and the ministers will repay Your Majesty's great kindness with this humble body." ”

Liu Bei nodded slightly, and said, "Zhao Yuntun's soldiers outside the city are my will, and I expect Ziyuan to understand the reason." "No wonder Zhao Yunlai was so strange, and he refused to enter the city, just to see Liu Bei, it turned out to be his idea. Wu Yi originally wanted to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, but he didn't dare to move after hearing this, since Liu Bei was so suspicious of Zhao Shu, how could he avoid it? Thinking of Zhao Zilong's courage in fighting the two generals alone during the day, coupled with the appearance of the purging army, Wu Yi's body couldn't help but tremble slightly, he knew that Zhao Yun's return was just a coincidence, but it was flexibly applied by Liu Bei.

Liu Bei saw that Wu Yi was already frightened, so he said: "Zhao Shu is not like Fazheng, I still trust it, but Jingzhou is inconvenient to stay for a long time, and I will think of driving back to Sichuan tomorrow." I don't know if Ziyuan is willing to escort me, or if he is willing to stay in Jingzhou to listen. ”

"Naturally, it is to escort Your Majesty." Wu Yi saw that Liu Bei was talking separately from Zhao Shu, so he was a little relieved, and said: "The forbidden military is to protect the safety of Your Majesty, and the minister is naturally escorted with you, hoping that Your Majesty will be gracious." ”

Liu Bei naturally agreed, and comforted him with words for a while, before letting Wu Yi retreat and prepare to drive, and then looked out the window, the east was already white, and he said in his heart: I can sleep peacefully tomorrow.

Since Zhao Shu returned to the Three Kingdoms, he was assassinated several times, and he has been waking up from many dreams when he sleeps all over the night. People close to him also know that Zhao Shu is sleepy, and if it is not a necessary event, he will definitely not wake Zhao Shu up. Today, Zhao Shu was still in a dream, but he was woken up by Guo Huai, and said that Liu Bei had set off to return to Sichuan with Wu Yi's forbidden army, and he was afraid that he was about to leave the city gate at this moment. After Zhao Shu heard about it, he hurriedly changed his clothes and didn't eat breakfast, so he and Guo Huai led people to chase after him.

It wasn't until the west gate that Liu Bei's car stopped with the support of the forbidden army, and Wu Yi, the governor of the forbidden army, was arguing with Huan Yi, who was defending the city. Zhao Shu hurriedly stepped forward and saluted Liu Bei's chariot and said, "Long live my emperor for Weichen." ”

I heard Liu Bei's old voice in the car and said coldly: "What a great general, a small city gate guard under his subordinates, he doesn't put my holy decree in his eyes, but only obeys your General Zhao's orders." ”

Zhao Shu hurriedly dismounted, bowed to the ground, and said: "The military order of the Weichen is strict, it is to collide with His Majesty's Tianwei, the minister is sincerely afraid, and he asks for sin." ”

"But there is no need to give sin." Liu Bei said again: "Don't let him retreat quickly, I want to go out of the city and return to Beijing." ”

"Yes." Zhao Shu got up and retreated, opened the city gate to let Liu Bei and his party out of the city, and escorted him with a team of men and horses. Not far out of the city, but there was a thunderous sound of horses' hooves, and a group of cavalry turned to the south, and it was Zhao Yun who was the general. When Zhao Shu saw Zhao Yun coming, he was also slightly frightened in his heart, Huan Yi and Guo Huai were also afraid of his disadvantage, so they all protected Zhao Shu together.

Zhao Yun approached with the people, still cold and arrogant, but he just swept his gaze over Zhao Shu's face, and then said to the car: "Weichen Zhao Yun is driving." ”

Liu Bei was silent in the car for a moment before he said: "Dongwu Xinsheng, I'm afraid that 6 Xun will be unwilling to attack Jingzhou, and Zilong will stay here to take charge of the military with Jingwei." You don't have to go back to Beijing with me. ”

Zhao Yun said: "Your Majesty's safety is far better than Jingzhou, how can you only be escorted by more than a thousand forbidden troops?" Wechen is willing to escort into Beijing. ”

Liu Bei didn't appreciate it, and said coldly: "In this case, Zilong can select five hundred elite soldiers in the army to enrich the forbidden army, Jingzhou is important, but the general must not leave." When Wu Yi heard this conversation, he faintly felt that he had fallen for Liu Bei, but he thought again, he was not Zhao Shu's party in the first place, so why should he continue to be entangled here, and it was better to follow Liu Bei away.

Zhao Yun asked him again and again, and Liu Bei suddenly said: "Since Zilong is so worried about my safety, he can be with him, but Jingzhou is short of soldiers and horses, and the general can hand over his subordinates to warp and weft, how about it?" ”

Zhao Yun didn't want Liu Bei to say this, so he couldn't help but be stunned, if he handed over the soldiers and horses, what was the use of following Liu Bei by his own strength? But let him stay in Jingzhou to face Zhao Shu, but he was also a little reluctant and unwilling. Zhao Yun pondered for a moment, and said, "The minister is willing to enter Beijing with His Majesty." "Weighing the two sides, if he stays in Jingzhou, he will have to watch out for Zhao Shu day and night, and whether Wu Yi is Zhao Shu's party or not, in his opinion, it is difficult to say, so he will hand over Liu Bei to him, but he is still not very relieved. Anyway, Zhao Yun is conceited of his martial arts, and he brought more than 100 guards around him, and he is still afraid of Wu Yi and this forbidden army?

Liu Bei was very wary of Kong Ming and Zhao Shu, so he wanted Wu Yi to protect him and borrow the name of Chengdu and go to the White Emperor City. Naturally, he didn't want Zhao Shu or Zhao Yun to follow, so he said that he would hand over the military power to embarrass Zhao Yun. But he never thought that Zhao Yun agreed, Liu Bei had to smile bitterly in the car, Jun had no jokes, since he had already exported, he had to let Zhao Yun follow. But thinking that he had sent Zhao Shu more than 10,000 troops for nothing, he couldn't help but regret it......
