Guan Yu saw that Chen Yan's face was pale, knowing that he was shocked by Liu Bei's guessing of the matter. Sure enough, after a long time, Chen Yan regained his composure, looked up at Guan Yu, and asked, "Liu Bei is a hero in the world, do you really think that he has no idea of supporting the army and standing on his own?" ”

Guan Yu shook his head lightly and said, "The eldest brother is a human being, I know very well that all he wants is that the world is peaceful and the Han family is stable." ”

Hearing this, Chen Yan slowly lowered his head.

Guan Yu couldn't help asking, "General, can you believe what I said?" ”

Chen Yan was silent for a long time, and finally raised his head again, and said word by word: "Believe." ”

……

In the blink of an eye, a night has passed, Chen Yan is probably destined to lose sleep this night, Guan Yu's words made Chen Yan feel worried, and he always had a feeling of love and hate for Liu Bei in his heart.

After all, Liu Bei is the soul of the Taoyuan Three Knots, and it is also a heroic figure who resisted stubbornly in the corner of the Han Dynasty, rolling the Yangtze River east, Liu Bei is a rare lord of benevolence and righteousness in the Three Kingdoms, how can Chen Yan not worship and admire him?

But Liu Bei is indeed a man who is unwilling to be subordinate, and is calculating everywhere, if it weren't for this, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to settle down in this troubled world and become a hegemon.

Countless people in history have tried to entrap Liu Bei, the famous Liu Guanzhang, but the fate of those people is not very good, not to mention Cao Cao, that is, Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zhan, Tao Qian, all failed to subdue Liu Bei, and now Liu Bei said that he is dedicated to the Han, but how can Chen Yan guarantee that one day Liu Bei will not fight against him?

But Guan Yu's words made Chen Yan have to believe it, and Guan Yu's righteousness made Chen Yan absolutely not to use black hands in secret, after all, they are all bright and upright people, and Chen Yan can't be ashamed.

Under the entanglement, the morning sun had risen, Chen Yan pushed the door out, but saw Xing'er standing at the door.

Xing'er had a sweet smile on her face, and she was ready to dress up for Chen Yan and Lu Lingqi, and when she saw Chen Yan, she couldn't help but lose her complexion: "My lord, your face is so bad!" ”

Chen Yan shook his head and sighed softly: "Alas, after running around for so long, my face is naturally a little worse. ”

Xing'er hammered Chen Yan's chest and said with a smile: "I'm afraid I pulled my young lady to do bad things last night, right?" ”

Speaking of this, Xing'er's face was full of deep meaning.

Chen Yan didn't expect Xing'er to make this kind of joke, she was immediately amused by her, and hurriedly shook her head and said, "Where, don't wronged your young lady, go and wake her up, I have something to do when I go out." ”

Xing'er didn't see the deep thoughts between Chen Yan's eyebrows, and walked into the room by herself.

Chen Yan had a sad face, so he walked along the empty street towards the place where Guo Jia lived, and when he encountered difficulties, the first thing Chen Yan thought of was Guo Jia.

Unexpectedly, before he arrived, Chen Yan saw a person walking on the opposite street, it happened to be Guo Jia, Guo Jia also saw Chen Yan, bowed from afar, and said loudly: "Lord, morning!" ”

Chen Yan looked at Guo Jia, sighed, walked forward quickly, and said in a low voice, "Fengxiao, I have encountered a thorny problem. ”

Guo Jia looked at Chen Yan's eyes, was silent for a moment, and suddenly said, "Could it be Liu Bei?" ”

Chen Yan was taken aback and asked, "How did Feng Xiao guess?" ”

Guo Jia said with a smile: "Liu Bei is a dragon and phoenix among people, a rare existence in the world, and his subordinates are even more famous generals like Yu Zhang Fei, but now Liu Bei has come to the lord's side, and the lord will naturally feel that such characters are not easy to coexist." If he is left alone, I am afraid that sooner or later he will develop his power and establish himself as a king, but if he is suppressed and framed, it will be a little unkind and unjust...... Such a situation is really a dilemma. ”

Chen Yan didn't expect Guo Jia to point out his sorrow again, he sighed and said, "Those who know me are filial piety!" ”

Guo Jia smiled slightly, and seemed to be very sympathetic to Chen Yan's situation, he said softly: "Lord, Mr. Jia Xu has already explained his opinion, he thinks that Liu Bei will become a great weapon, so he must make a plot as soon as possible, haven't you already agreed to this?" ”

Chen Yan knew that Guo Jia's temporary change of hexagram puzzled him, and he even told Guo Jia about Guan Yu's coming to him last night. Guo Jianai is closely related to the Cold Moon Organization, naturally he has also heard of Guan Yu's origins, for Guan Yu, Guo Jia is also admired, after listening to Chen Yan's statement, Guo Jia pondered: "If it is as Yun Chang said, then Liu Bei is indeed a loyal person, it is not a secret, I have been observing Liu Bei these days, I think this person is indeed benevolent and faithful, not like pretending." ”

Yes, Guo Jia's judgment is indeed accurate, so many brothers under Liu Bei are all heroes in the world, their eyes are naturally bright, if Liu Bei is really a hypocritical villain, then how can Liu Bei's brothers die for him?

Chen Yan frowned and asked, "Then what should I do?" ”

Guo Jiadao: "My opinion is, why don't you try to get acquainted with Liu Bei?" At this time, we just met in Pingshui, naturally there is an estrangement, and when the lord and Liu Bei are acquainted, wouldn't it be better to decide how to deal with him then? ”

Guo Jia woke up Chen Yan with a word, that's right, Liu Bei is still a stranger to Chen Yan at this time, Chen Yan's understanding of Liu Bei is nothing more than through later generations and historical materials, and now Liu Bei, a big living person, has appeared in front of Chen Yan, he should cherish this opportunity and take a good look at what kind of person Liu Bei is.

Thinking of this, Chen Yan suddenly thought about it, and he smiled slightly: "Thank you Fengxiao for mentioning it, let's get ready to leave for Luoyang!" ”

After saying that, Chen Yan was in high spirits and strode towards the state capital, Guo Jia is indeed extraordinary, and he can often solve his entire problem with one sentence.

……

On the way to Luoyang, Liu Guanzhang and the three walked side by side, and Liu Bei looked thoughtful, as if he was thinking about something.

Zhang Fei had a gloomy face on the side, although Chen Yan also took care of them, but after all, Chen Yan caused them to lose their 30,000 horses, these soldiers were veterans who had fought side by side with them for a long time, no matter who they were, they felt very uncomfortable.

Especially Zhang Fei, he is a person who holds grudges, not because he is small-minded, but because this loss is too great.

Suddenly, Liu Bei sighed, seemingly a little sad.

On the side, Guan Yu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "What's the matter, big brother?" What's not to think of? ”

Liu Bei smiled bitterly and said, "Although General Chen Yan accepted us and gave us 30,000 soldiers and horses, I always felt that he didn't trust our brothers. ”

Guan Yu smiled slightly, he didn't let Liu Bei know about going to Chen Yan at night, he wanted to take his own measures to win Liu Bei's trust.

Guan Yu said: "Big brother, I think Chen Yan is very interesting, it's not that he doesn't trust us, it's just that in the troubled times, he is afraid that we will use him." ”

"Utilization?" Liu Bei raised his eyebrows, and there seemed to be a sudden expression in his eyes, "It's no wonder, but in this troubled world, it is indeed indispensable to guard against people." ”
