Chapter 129: Green Plum Cooking Wine on Heroes (II)
When Liu Yan was dying, he called Liu Mao and Liu Zhang to the bed, and asked Liu Mao first:
"Mao'er, if you become a Yizhou pastor, what should you do?"
Liu Mao said generously when he heard this:
"The son must first cut down Xichuan and Zhanglu, carry the power of the two rivers, and complete his father's unfinished great cause."
Liu Yan's face remained unchanged, nodded, and asked Liu Zhang:
"Ji Yu, if you are the pastor of Yizhou, what should you do?"
Liu Zhang gave a deep salute and said:
"Father, now that the eldest brother and the second brother are gone, and the third brother is still here, Yu Ji doesn't dare to think about it."
Liu Mao smiled and nodded, but Liu Yan said:
"This is a family matter of my Liu family, and it has nothing to do with etiquette, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
Liu Zhang thought for a moment and said:
"In my opinion, Zhang Lu is just a disease of mustard, and the danger of Yizhou lies in Zhao Wei."
Liu Mao couldn't help but look at Liu Zhang, very suspicious. He couldn't see it clearly, Zhao Wei obviously supported Liu Zhang as the pastor of Yizhou, but he didn't know why Liu Zhang said this.
Zhao Wei is not a simple person, he was an official in the court back then, and then Liu Yan went to Yizhou, but Zhao Wei resigned and went to Yizhou with Liu Yan. Later, he followed Liu Yan to stabilize Yizhou, experienced countless killings, and became a powerful figure in Yizhou at that time.
Zhao Weiyuan in Brazil for the Taicang order, for Liu Yan's old department, heard that Liu Yan wanted to go to Yizhou, a thought, at this time the world is in chaos, when there is a world to compare the world, and if he follows Liu Yan into Shu, or can become the founding minister, the future is unlimited, so he resigned and followed Liu Yan into Shu.
Zhao Wei has become a powerful figure in Yizhou in a few years. In his eyes, the only person to fear is Liu Yan, if Liu Yan dies, Zhao Wei will definitely sit in Yizhou.
Hearing this, Liu Yan nodded and said to Liu Mao:
"Mao'er, I have something to talk about with Zhang'er, you go out first."
Liu Mao was suspicious in her heart, but she didn't dare to disobey, so she had to obey the order and retreat. Only then did Liu Yan set his eyes on Liu Zhang, and took a second look at his son, who looked extremely humble. Liu Zhang hurriedly lowered his head, and Liu Yan sighed:
"You knew that Fan Er and Birthday would die, right?"
Hearing this, Liu Zhang hurriedly knelt on the ground with tears in his eyes and said:
"The child once persuaded the eldest brother and the second brother that it was too dangerous to cooperate with the Ma family at this time, but the eldest brother and the second brother didn't listen to the son, and the son really had no other way but to protect himself."
Liu Yan nodded and said:
"Get up, and those who have achieved great things should not be small. My father asks you, what are you going to do if you are a pastor of Yizhou? ”
Liu Zhang hurriedly stood up, raised his lowered head, and his originally timid gaze suddenly became very bright, looking directly at Liu Yan neither humble nor arrogant. can't help but make Liu Yan have an illusion, is this the docile and cowardly Liu Zhang?
Liu Zhang knew at this time that there was an opportunity in front of him, and with his temperament, he was willing to let it go, and said in a deep voice:
"My son will also send troops to Zhang Lu."
Liu Yan's eyes rolled slightly:
"Who to send?"
Liu Zhang's categorical railway:
"Pang Xi!"
When Liu Yan's two sons discussed with Ma Teng to seize Chang'an, Pang Xi seemed to have a wait-and-see attitude, and after his two sons were defeated, Pang Xi actively rescued Liu Yan's descendants and had great favors with Liu Yan's family. But Liu Yan knows that this talent is short-lived and cannot be reused. Immediately slightly disappointed, he shook his head and said:
"Pang Xi's talent is not enough, and Zhang Lu has been broken."
But seeing that Liu Zhang seemed to know that Liu Yan would say so, a sly smile appeared on his face and said:
"The child knows that the child's plan is intended to paralyze Zhao Wei."
Liu Yan nodded when he heard this, and said for a long time:
"Why do you think that the danger of Yizhou lies in Zhao Wei."
Liu Zhang smiled deeply and said:
"Because he is the lord of Liyizhou, support me."
Liu Yan looked at Liu Zhang and nodded, and said with a pleased smile:
"You are cowardly and cowardly, gentle and submissive, and have experienced countless risks. He doesn't support Mao'er, but he supports you, but he has a bad heart, okay, let Mao'er and the ministers outside come in. ”
After a while, a group of Yizhou ministers and Liu Mao came to Liu Yan's house, Liu Yan motioned for Liu Mao and Liu Zhang to kneel, Liu Mao and Liu Zhang knew that Liu Yan had something important to say and was busy kneeling in front of the bed, Liu Yan's ministers also came to the bed, Liu Yan said:
"I have ruled Yizhou for a long time, and now I need a benevolent person to ease the conflict between my Liu family and Yizhou. Liu Zhang, with a benevolent heart, can be the pastor of Yizhou, Mao'er, you have to assist with all your heart, and you can't have other intentions. ”
Although Liu Mao was unconvinced when he heard this, he knew his father best, and if he disobeyed, he would not be able to escape his hands, so he had to nod deeply, and since then Liu Zhang has obtained Yizhou Mu.
Liu Zhang was the pastor of Yizhou, and as he said, he changed his past weakness, executed Zhang Lu's mother and younger brother by thunder, and sent Pang Xi to attack Zhang Lu.
That Zhang Lu has a very good background, how can he be this Zhang Lu's opponent with Pang Xizhi's ability? Therefore, it was not advantageous to send troops several times. In the face of this situation, Liu Zhang's performance at this time could not be forbidden, and he could only let it go, and in the end, he had no choice but to send Zhao Wei, who was quite popular with the people, to quell the rebellion.
Zhao Wei has been plotting for many years, planning for several years, and now he sent his troops to quell the rebellion like a fish returning to the sea, and the birds entered the mountains and forests, and Fang immediately launched a rebellion when he sent troops. Zhao Wei waved his arm, Shu County, Guanghan, and Qianqian all responded, and the Yizhou Rebellion was imminent, but Liu Zhang at this time had already prepared, personally took command, and galloped into Chengdu to meet Zhao Wei's military revolution.
Liu Zhang can solve Zhao Wei's powerful ministers in a short time, in Liu Bei's opinion, his ability is no less than his father, but it is a pity that the luck is not good, only has the land of Yizhou, not enough to compete for the world, but on his political strategy, Liu Bei has long admired in his heart.
Liu Bei said that Liu Zhang was a hero, Cao Cao shook his head when he heard this, and laughed:
"Although Liu Zhang is a relative of the Han family, he is only a dog who guards the household, how can he be a hero?"
Cao Cao's words are groundless and have a source, because Liu Zhang is in the land of Yizhou, there is no springboard to peep into the Central Plains to fight for the world, and there is Zhang Luhu Saw Hanzhong sleeping soundly on the side of the couch, so he can only guard the land of Yizhou, so he said that he is guarding the household, this kind of character, how can he enter Cao Cao's eyes.
But in Liu Bei's eyes, the above-listed Yuan Shao, Liu Biao, Sun Ce, and Liu Zhang are all heroes in his eyes. Yuan Shao IV and the Third Duke,. As for Sun Ce and Liu Zhang, although Liu Bei has not seen him, but with his political means, he can establish a firm foothold in the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms in just a few years, which is also extraordinary. As for Yuan Shu, it was all out of temptation.
But Cao Cao thinks that he is not a hero, Liu Bei knows that Cao Cao wants to make him say that Cao Cao is a hero, but Liu Bei is very angry, seeing that Cao Cao is extremely arrogant and looks down on the heroes of the world, how can he say it? But I really can't list heroes, so I have to say:
"What about Zhang Xiu, Zhang Lu, Han Sui, and Ma Teng?"
Cao Cao knew that Liu Bei could no longer list the heroes in his heart, so he couldn't help laughing and said:
"These are all busy people, how can we talk about heroes?"
Liu Bei also shook his head and smiled bitterly:
"Prime minister, don't be ashamed, Liu Bei really doesn't know which hero there is in the world."
Cao Cao laughed when he heard this, pointed at Liu Bei with chopsticks, laughed for a while, and said in a deep voice:
"Ask the world, what is a hero? Gaozu started with a four-foot sword, and sat on the Han dynasty. Husband, a hero, with great ambitions, good intentions, the heart has the opportunity to contain the universe, and the will to swallow heaven and earth. ”
Liu Bei nodded when he heard this:
"In this case, who in the world can be a hero?"
But seeing Cao Cao's solemn face, the sudden change in the sky above, Cao Cao's eyes were hiding countless wind and snow, and he pointed at Liu Bei first, and then pointed to himself:
"Today's heroes, only Jun and Cao'er."
Liu Bei was taken aback when he heard this, and he didn't dare to face Cao Cao, but he expected that Cao Cao's killing intent had appeared at this time, and he was terrified in his heart, knowing that Cao Cao had moved his killing intent, the air suddenly froze, and Liu Bei couldn't even breathe. Sure enough, Cao Cao's killing intent at this time trembled.
The sky has moved, there was a thunder, Liu Bei pretended to be frightened, and hurriedly dropped the chopsticks in his hand to the ground, Liu Bei hurriedly picked up the chopsticks and said:
"The power of a shock is even like this, a gaffe."
Cao Cao saw that he scared the chopsticks away, and he didn't feel funny, and his killing intent shook:
"My husband is still afraid of thunder?"
Liu Bei Yu was shocked and said:
"Sage Kong is still afraid of thunder, Liu Bei is an ordinary man, and he is not afraid."
Cao Cao couldn't help but doubt Fang Fang in his heart, but seeing that Liu Bei was shocked by his words at this moment, how could he talk about a hero? For a moment, the wine tasting was silent, just smiling.
Liu Bei suddenly looked up at the Heavenly Dao:
"Prime Minister, look, the dragon form is gone, but it is a bear."
Cao Cao looked up, but saw that Fang Cai Tianlong was there, but it was a cloud, forming a circle by itself, this time, there was no other look, but listening to Liu Bei say this, he didn't feel a little like a bear, and he couldn't help but have doubts, laughed, and Liu Bei had to laugh with Cao Cao.
At this moment, I suddenly saw outside the garden, crashed into the two of them, couldn't intercept them left and right, and broke straight into the park. Cao Cao regarded it as Guan Zhang. It turned out that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei heard that Cao Cao invited Liu Bei to come to the Prime Minister's Mansion, but the matter was revealed, so they didn't have time to go home and went straight to the Prime Minister's Mansion, but when they saw Cao Cao and Liu Bei cooking wine in the garden, they couldn't help but feel at ease, and came behind Liu Bei and stood with a sword.
Cao Cao said:
"Where did you come from?"
Zhang Feiyuan's eyes widened angrily, and he didn't know what to answer, this Guan Yuji said: "I heard that the prime minister and his brother are drinking here, and they are here to dance the sword to help them." ”
Cao Cao laughed and said:
"This is not a Hongmen banquet, why do you need Xiang Zhuang and Xiang Bo?"
Liu Bei also covered his mouth and smiled, and Cao Cao said:
"People come, take wine and Erfan to suppress the shock."
When Liu Bei heard this, his eyes trembled, if it wasn't for Fan Hao crashing into the Hongmen Banquet, how could Liu Bang have his life, now hearing Cao Cao's words and Erfan Xue seem to have something to say, he was immediately moved and looked at Cao Cao.
But seeing that Cao Cao was talking and laughing freely, he didn't mean anything, and he couldn't help but feel at ease, Guan and Zhang were busy thanking Xie and receiving wine. The three brothers of Liu Bei drank with Cao Cao for a while, and then dispersed.
The three of them walked side by side on the streets of Xudu, Guan Yu said:
"When I went back to the city and heard that my brother went to Cao's Mansion, it really scared the two of us to death."
Hearing this, Liu Bei couldn't help but take a long breath and said:
"Don't you know, I studied in the garden, and I wanted to make Cao Cao think that I had no ambitions. Unexpectedly, Cao Cao talked to me about the heroes of the world, and actually referred to me as a hero, fortunately, I pretended to be frightened, pretended to be afraid of thunder and shocked, and passed away, otherwise there would be no life at this moment. ”
Zhang Feihu said angrily:
"Big brother is really insightful!"
Guan Yu said: "Big brother is really a hero, Cao Cao should have this try." ”
Liu Bei nodded when he heard this.
Since Cao Cao and Liu Bei cooked wine and talked about heroes, Cao Cao often called Liu Bei to the house to chat.
