Chapter 512 - Elfang who has disappeared for a long time
When Yizhou's future was very good, Liu Xie was also in a tangle.
And all these entanglements and confusions come from a guy who was taken out of prison by Pan Jun and sent to Chang'an.
When Liu Xie saw this guy.... Well.... There is a weirdness in his eyes!
"Elkfang... Are you Elkfang? ”
Liu Xie looked at the guy in front of him who he hadn't seen for many years, and couldn't believe that this guy who was messy, had messy hair and a little dirt, and even had a little stench on his body, could be Elfang.
You must know that Elfang is one of the two sons of the Elk family, and he has been rich and domineering since he was a child.
Even if the family is in the middle of the road, it is not the existence of ordinary people, not to mention that this guy took the initiative to go to Saiwai to help him through the most difficult period.
This Chang'an's court was able to survive the early stage and survive after the princes gave up their support for him, this guy definitely has a great merit.
As for those people, the slaves, aliens, cattle and sheep and even horses that this guy brought him from outside the fortress, I don't know how many people rejoiced.
If it weren't for this, I don't know how many times this guy would have been killed by his boss because of the bad things and bad reputation that this guy made outside.
It's just that this guy's contribution to himself is too great, and the maintenance of courtiers like Zhang Ji and Zhao Yan, who have received a lot of "favors" from Elfang, has made this guy stay free.
But with the passage of time, Liu Xie's life is getting better day by day, and Elfang's role is getting smaller day by day.
It wasn't until later that this elk fang almost cut off contact with Chang'an, as if it had evaporated from this world.
Except for the cattle, sheep, horses, and slaves sent to Chang'an every year, he hardly moved at any other time.
At this time, Liu Xie was absent all the year round, although Zhao Yan, Zhang Ji and others had some opinions on Elfang's behavior.
But seeing that he has never harmed the people in the territory of the Han Dynasty, this is also turning a blind eye, as if he never knew this person.
As for his future, it has nothing to do with Dahan.
And he was very clear about these after Liu Xie came back, but he also didn't say anything, and now Liu Xie no longer needs Elfang to do anything for himself in the shadows behind him.
And he didn't want to lose the reputation of crossing the river and tearing down the bridge, and he didn't plan to do so, so... Pretending not to know anything, let Elfang disappear from the big man.
Maybe that's the best choice!
But!
Liu Xie never imagined that this guy would appear in front of him in this way, and someone told him that this guy had been imprisoned in Chengdu for a long time before this....
Long?
"Ahem, cough, cough.... Originally... It turns out that the guy who was knocked out by Zhang Ren was you!
I also said that when I looked at that figure, I always felt a little familiar, but I didn't expect it to be you... Hahahaha..."
Maybe Liu Xie also felt that this matter was a bit too mysterious, so after watching that Elfang for a long time, he still opened his mouth with a little embarrassment, and finally simply laughed.
And then Elfang also knew that his current fate had nothing to do with Liu Xieke.
But now that I've come out of that prison, I have to make some plans for my future!
The first is to explain to Liu Xie how he got to this point.
"Speaking of which.... The last general is also to blame.
Four or five years ago, the world had not been so chaotic at that time, but because of His Majesty's rise in the northern frontier, the situation outside the country has become a little unstable.
The last general had already gathered a lot of forces and had a lot of manpower.
However, because of the chaos outside the fortress and the continuous natural disasters, the impact on us is also very great.
In order to be able to support those under his hands, and to be able to serve the court... Do something for the court! ”
Elfang began his own story, but before telling the reason, he still gave himself an upright reason.
Even if he hadn't said why he wanted to run from outside the northern Xinjiang to Xichuan Chengdu, which Liu Xie couldn't take care of at the beginning....
However, for this guy's words, Liu Xie just rolled his eyes, and then didn't say anything more.
Seeing that Liu Xie didn't interrupt him directly, then Elfang also hurriedly continued to talk to Liu Xie.
"Your Majesty.... At the beginning, the general really had no choice, and in desperation, he could only seek some other ways.
For example, take out some of the specialties of this northern Xinjiang, and then work with others... Well... It's to trade one or two in exchange for some necessities such as money and food!
Of course, the last general will definitely not have any connection with traitors like Cao Thief! ”
Looking at the hoarse Elfang, Liu Xie couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
It seems that this guy is still in contact with those people under Cao Cao Mengde?
He's a nice guy!
Looking at Liu Xie's appearance that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, Lu Fang also knew that her performance just now was a little too clumsy.
But.... Although the performance is clumsy, but the other party does not directly debunk himself, that is, he believes in himself!
Elfang persuaded herself very decisively, and then continued to talk to Liu Xie.
At the beginning, the general was also helpless, and in the end he really couldn't think of any other way, so he set his sights on Xichuan.
Originally, the last general thought that the lord of the West River... Liu Zhang, who replaced His Majesty in charge of Xichuan at the beginning, was an incompetent person, and even if he got any benefits, he couldn't really succeed.
It will not have any impact on His Majesty, so he chose this person.
Who knew that the last general would go over to do business in a proper manner, but as a result, this Xichuan person was arrogant and unreasonable, and he was completely a bunch of unreasonable things.
Instead of giving the last general the money and food he deserves, on the contrary... They also greedily used everything the last general had brought with them, and finally sent the last general to the prison as well.
At the end of these years, he will really live in darkness, thanks to the faith and longing for His Majesty in his heart, which has persevered until now.
Please let Your Majesty be the master of the last general! ”
Elfang deserves to be Elfang, and the foreshadowing of the previous meal is better than how.
As a result, when it came to the real business, it took less than a few words to generalize, which made Liu Xie directly sneer!
However, the sneer was a sneer, and Liu Xie didn't plan to demolish him directly, but nodded slowly.
"You've really worked hard all these years, let's step back first!"
"The last general...."
"Okay, I have other arrangements for you in the future, don't worry!" After giving the other party a guarantee, Liu Xie let Na Elfang quickly disappear from his sight.
After he left, Liu Xie couldn't help but look at his side.
"Jia Gong!" Liu Xie didn't ask anyone else, but went straight to Jia Xu and passed, "You can be regarded as the one who has known Elfang for the longest time, what do you think about this?" ”
Jia Xu was also embarrassed after hearing Liu Xie's words, and finally sighed helplessly when he looked at Liu Xie in front of him.
"Your Majesty.... Where is the truth in this elffang's mouth!
I'm afraid this guy had a lot of friendship with that Cao Mengde before, and even with Yuan Benchu before!
As for why he went to Xichuan, the old man dared to guess... I'm afraid that the battle in Hebei is too fierce, and this guy's trade route in Hebei has been cut off, so he has no choice but to find other trade routes.
And Jingzhou has Liu Xuande there, and there are more people who recognize him, but the road is difficult, and I am afraid it is not easy to walk.
Coupled with the fear of being known by His Majesty, I thought of a way to transfer from the land of Yongliang to Hanzhong and enter the land of Xichuan.
As for why he was caught....
To put it mildly, four or five years ago, this Chengdu Order was still that Dong He!
With the character of the young man, he definitely couldn't do such a thing.
However, if you calculate it this way, four or five years ago, it was when Dong He was ordered by Liu Zhang to clean up the chaos in Chengdu and save the extravagance of Chengdu from being too excessive.
And Elfang was caught at that time.
If Lao Chen's guess is right, I'm afraid that this Elk Fang was in Chengdu at the beginning... Hehehehe...."
Jia Xu finally sneered directly, and his purpose was self-evident.
And if Elfang was here at this time, I am afraid that Jia Xu would be shocked again, because what this old guy guessed was almost the same as what happened to him.
The most important thing is that he was arrested in the first place because he was fighting with the group of people in Chengdu to get rich.
And the most shameless thing is that he not only won, but because he drank too much, he kept mocking that group of people was a group of lower riba people, a group of uninformed.
As a result, they were sent to Dong He, and the evidence was conclusive.
By the time Elfang came to his senses, he was already in prison.
And his identity .... At the beginning, Elfang really didn't dare to take out Liu Xie's identity to talk about it, so in the end, she simply recognized this matter.
I thought I would be locked up for a few days, ten days and half a month at most, and this matter will pass.
He's just fighting for wealth, a small punishment and a big punishment, what else can he do to himself?
But Elfang never dreamed that this guy's luck would be unlucky to that extent.
After he was imprisoned, Chengdu and even Xichuan were in chaos, and Dong He was directly calculated by many wealthy families in Chengdu.
Several times I almost had a big problem, and even my position was almost lost.
In the end, because of the endless wars, the chaotic situation, and countless problems of various sizes, Elfang was stunned because of fighting for wealth and cheapness, and was imprisoned for several years.....
It wasn't until Pan Jun reorganized the Yizhou prison that he suddenly found this guy.
Although he didn't know and didn't know Elfang, there were too many problems with this guy, and under Pan Jun's questioning, this guy finally told the truth.
At the same time, both sides know what is going on.
Elfang knew that the current Xichuan had been completely replaced, and Pan Jun was surprised that there was still a veteran follower of His Majesty locked up.
Good guy, this is a big surprise, don't even think about it, I sent it directly to Chang'an for Elfang, and those things happened before.
Listening to Jia Xu's words, and thinking about Elfang's attitude before, Liu Xie, who is now an old man, couldn't help but sigh and came out.
At this time, he had already seen Jia Xu's guess, and nine times out of ten it should be the truth!
And this truth .... made Liu Xiedu feel quite faceless.
"That's it, it's all over, for the sake of this guy's hard work for me a few years ago, this matter is over!"
Liu Xie sighed, and finally decided to make this matter a big thing and a small thing.
And there are many reasons why he is like this, the biggest of which is.... He's Elkfang!
This guy's reputation in history is definitely not good, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he has lost his conscience.
If it weren't for Elfang, Guan Yu would not have fallen to that point in history, and the world would probably not be such a tragic situation!
But... Again, there is one saying and one thing.
This Elfang has such a reputation because this guy is one of the biggest contrasting figures in the same historical event like Yu Ban.
It can even be said that the two of them have extremely subverted their own personalities, and they are also at the level of important ministers of the state!
In his previous life, someone once asked Liu Xie why he didn't let Guan Yu and Huang Zhong guard Jingzhou together, and he had to use a guy like Elfang to do it.
Is it Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang that they don't know how to recognize and employ people?
To be honest, Liu Xie couldn't help but spray it directly, because even now Liu Xie can't imagine who can be more suitable for Majesty Elfang, even if he doesn't open the eyes of the sky.
Although this guy has not done anything big in history, his status is high, and even reliable, it is definitely second only to Guan Zhang and a few other elders.
And he himself is a patriarch ....
Who was Elfang in history?
The younger brother of Ji Han's chief civil official, Lu Zhu, Ji Hanguo's uncle, to put it mildly, if there is no Elk family in history, then Liu Bei will not want to become a prince at all.
Not to mention the rest of the story.
Even from a moral and moral point of view, for Liu Bei, the Elk family is the grace of foundation laying and rebuilding!
To put it mildly, even if the Elk family abandoned Liu Bei in the process, no one could say anything about them, because this is called stop loss.
But if Liu Bei abandons the elk family, then he will be a naked bastard scumbag.
But even in such a situation, did Elfang ever think about leaving in those years?
Of course not, since he followed Liu Bei in Xuzhou's elk's house, Elfang naturally followed Liu Bei.
This son of a wealthy family was directly beaten into a wandering wanderer from the world's rich, high-ranking officials, and his character was suddenly beaten into a wandering child!
Historically, in the first year of Jian'an, Liu Bei asked Lu Bu to steal his home, and then this guy fled to Haixi with Liu Bei, and then to Cao Mengde.
Under Cao Mengde's command, Elfang was once valued by Cao Mengde and was named Peng Chengxiang.
But after Liu Bei left, this guy also resigned directly and continued to follow Liu Bei!
In the second year of Jian'an, Liu Bei was beaten by Gao Shun again, and then he had to flee by himself, or Elfang desperately collected the remnants of the army in the back and defeated Jian, and then went to find Liu Bei and join him.
and handed over the soldiers and horses to Liu Bei, giving him the opportunity and possibility to rise again.
In the fourth year of Jian'an, Liu Bei was beaten by Cao Mengde again, this time even Guan Yu was captured, and Zhang Fei was lost.
But it was still Elfang who collected all kinds of scattered soldiers and horses outside, and then found Liu Bei for the first time, and ran over to find Liu Bei and meet him.
During this time, this guy actually led a group of stragglers through the buffer zone that could fight at any time.
I have to say, this is a ruthless person!
In the fifth year of Jian'an, Cao Cao beat Liu Bei again, and Elfang followed Liu Bei to Xinye.
In the thirteenth year of Jian'an, Jingzhou changed greatly, Cao Mengde beat Liu Bei again, and the tiger and leopard rode behind Liu Bei's buttocks, it was really a quack!
Then Elfang still followed Liu Bei all the way to Jiangxia, and followed Liu Bei to start all over again....
From before the Jian'an period to the thirteenth year of Jian'an, or even the twenty-second year of Jian'an.
In the past ten years, Elfang has either followed Liu Bei to be beaten, or followed Liu Bei on the road of being beaten immediately.
Elk Fang ran through? Scared? Surrendered?
Even Liu Bei threw away his wife and children more than once and ran away, but this guy didn't run!
With such an unswerving position and the character set up in the past ten or twenty years, when Liu Bei finally becomes the climate and finally turns over in Yizhou, can he forget the Elk brothers?
At that time, if someone said that Elfang would be a traitor in the future, there was no need for Mi Zhu and Liu Bei to say anything, Guan Yu could kill that fool with one sword!
After talking about the person Elfang, let's talk about the city of Gangneung.
The city of Jiangling has ushered in the hard work of Liu Biao, Cao Ren and Guan Yu, and it has been an iron bucket for more than ten years under the construction of Guan Yu.
Even saying that he is the number one strong city in the world is a bit exaggerated, but it is not unacceptable.
Before that, Cao Ren had been hard against Zhou Yu here for a full year, and then Zhu Ran carried several times Cao Jun to fight a defeat and not lose it.
So this fortified city is in hand, where do you need any too powerful abilities, you just need the identity of the guard to be strong enough and the loyalty is high enough.
And these two points .... Which one can compare to Elfon?
In the absence of Commander Guan Yu, Zhang Fei led the troops outside and supervised the army Bajun, which was Liu Bei's first barrier.
Zhao Yun commanded the forbidden army and was the commander-in-chief of the Central Army.
It's a bit of a waste to put it here.
After Pang Tong died, Zhuge Liang couldn't move, he needed to lead the overall situation, and the head of Mi Zhu's civil officials had a special status.
Huang Zhong... How could he dare to compare with Elk Fang in loyalty and status?
So in that case, which one can compare to Uncle Elfang, who has been with Liu Bei for decades?
But.... Who would have thought that so many Elfang, who had carried so many winds and waves, would do such a at the last moment?
