Chapter 175: Alternative Talks
The scientific expedition in the city was held for three days.
Liu Bang was in Zhang Liang's house and also stayed for three days.
In the past three days, the two went from-for-tat at the beginning, to the end they had a feeling of sympathy, and Liu Bang also told Zhang Liang all the purpose of his coming to Xianyang City.
and the revenge in his heart, he said it word for word.
However, he didn't ask why Zhang Liang would abandon his young master's life, but pretend to be a civilian and hide here.
He just talked about his own affairs, and comforted Zhang Liang from time to time.
On the last day, when he watched the sun slowly set and the light in the room gradually dimmed, Liu Bang's expression was also a little lost.
"In just a few days, I have a feeling of inseparability in my heart."
"Brother Zhang, I can't come again from tomorrow, the things handed over to me by the commander have not been done, I'm afraid I will return to Pei County tomorrow and be my pavilion chief wholeheartedly."
Hearing this, Zhang Liang looked at Liu Bang with some surprise.
In the past few days, Liu Bang has always said that he is doing things by Ran Fang's side, and he has also said a lot of Ran Fang's brilliant deeds, especially this scientific expedition was also proposed by Ran Fang.
Moreover, Liu Bang's reverence for Ran Fang in his mouth cannot be faked.
Just these things made him think that Liu Bang was doing things by Zhang Liang's side, just like Cao Yangyun.
"Why is that?"
"Since you are the person around you as the commander, you can stay in Xianyang City with just one word from him, why do you want to return to Napei County?"
"In this way, how can the ideals and ambitions in your heart be realized?!"
When he heard "ideals and ambitions", Liu Bang lowered his head sadly.
At the moment when he lowered his head, Zhang Liang saw the pain and struggle hidden in his eyes, as well as a sense of powerlessness against fate.
It's like he wants revenge, but always fails because of something.
"Brother Liu, if you have any grievances in your heart, you can tell me with confidence."
"Even if I can't help you, I'm willing to listen to you talk to me."
Liu Bang raised his head, and his eyes were full of gratitude for his words.
A smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, but the smile had a distressing flavor.
After a moment, he waved his hand casually, and said in a rather helpless tone: "Hey, it's okay, it may be the will of heaven." ”
"But...... I still have to apologize to Brother Zhang. ”
"In order to stay with the commander, he gave me a mission when he met me, which was to get me close to you."
"At first, I was a little resistant, but after contacting you, I felt that this was an opportunity given to me by my husband, a ...... An opportunity to recognize yourself. ”
These words also moved Zhang Liang a little, and there was no mustard in his heart.
After all, when Liu Bang came to his house for the first time, he had already stated his purpose, and there were many ways to prevent him from going to the scientific examination, but he chose the gentlest way.
Sure enough, after getting acquainted with it, I forgot all the domineering that I had just entered the door.
"Brother Liu is wrong in what he said, if you hadn't come to inform me, I'm afraid I would have been arrested at this moment."
"You were also here on order, and it was already my honor to be able to say something heart-wrenching to me."
"But why...... You have already blocked my scientific expedition, why should the commander punish you? ”
That's what I want.
Liu Bang looked at Zhang Liang with an embarrassed expression, and the sorry meaning in his eyes was self-evident.
"Alas......"
He let out a long breath, and then said with an unnatural expression, "I didn't want you to know......"
"Actually, the commander took a fancy to your talent, so he wanted me to stop your scientific expedition and persuade you to be willing to submit to him."
"If one of these two things I don't do well, then he will send me back to Peixian directly, and he will punish me for the crime of selfishness in Xianyang."
"Originally, I wanted to persuade you directly, but after getting along in the past few days, I found that you also want to establish your own great cause in your heart, which is different from what Ran Fang wants to do, so I don't want to embarrass you, let me bear this matter myself."
This was something Zhang Liang didn't expect, he didn't know that he still had such a great value in Ran Fang's heart.
It was at this moment that the feeling of being recognized made him feel deeply satisfied.
Just for a moment, he thought of the hatred of his family and country, if he couldn't avenge his family, what kind of face would he have to enter the Zhang family ancestral hall a hundred years later?
"That's how it is...... I didn't expect the commander to take a fancy to me, and I was really flattered. ”
"But I can't let go of the obsession in my heart, I'm afraid I'm going to waste your sincerity."
"I'm sorry Brother Liu, I can't ...... it"
Originally, Liu Bang thought that after his true feelings, Zhang Liang would think about it carefully, and maybe he would directly agree to join Ran Fang's command as soon as he was moved.
As a result, he thought about it for a while but refused.
What a surprise to him!
Even though he was a little disappointed in his heart, he didn't show the slightest expression on his face, but instead looked empathetic and nodded very seriously.
At the same time, he also secretly scolded Ran Fang in his heart, so he couldn't tell him directly, did Zhang Liang have any knots in his heart?!
He patted Zhang Liang on the shoulder, indicating that he could understand.
"I know what you mean, so I won't embarrass you, or I won't tell you the truth of the matter."
"I just hope you don't care, I'm close to your purpose."
"If he passes by Pei County in the future, he will definitely drink and eat tea and chat with me again."
"It's not too early, I'm going back."
As he spoke, he was about to get up and leave, but when he walked to the door, he couldn't help but glance back at Zhang Liang.
"I ...... Good news awaits you! ”
After saying the last sentence, Liu Bang left here with his head held high, leaving Zhang Liang with a sad back.
Looking at the direction Liu Bang left, Zhang Liang's heart swelled with infinite emotion, if it weren't for the hatred in his heart, he would naturally be willing to follow Ran Fang's side.
And I can also see Liu Bang every day, and the two talk freely!
He could see that Liu Bang also thought so, otherwise he wouldn't have said Ran Fang's idea of wanting to submit himself to him until the end, because he was worried that he would have a psychological burden.
Such a good brother, confidant, but he has no way to do anything for him.
Thinking of this, Zhang Liang lowered his head a little uncomfortably and drank all the tea in the cup.
"This tea was also brought by Brother Liu, and it was given to him by Ran Fang, and it is a rare and good tea in Xianyang City."
He turned the teacup with his hand, his eyes were full of deep reluctance, and finally muttered: "Thank you." ”
"Brother Liu...... I'm afraid I'm going to let you down. ”
"If he gets revenge one day, I will go to Pei County to drink with you!"
