Three Kingdoms: Liu Bei seeks the master and seeks to conquer the world

Chapter 116

Liu Bei hasn't seen Guan Yu and Zhang Fei for a long time, and he misses them very much.

Seeing Zhang Fei coming in a hurry as usual, Liu Bei also strode forward to meet him: "Yide is in Donglai County, did he find a strange thing in the sea?"

Zhang Fei laughed loudly: "Brother's guess is really accurate! When we were in Huang County, Ziyi and I met an old boatman. The old boatman said that he got a strange thing at sea, and asked for the goods and the nobleman."

"I was curious, so I bought it."

"A few days ago, Mr. Zigang came to Huang County, saw the strange thing I bought, and exclaimed that I was lucky enough to get this rare treasure in this world."

"Hey, I thought that if my elder brother wanted to marry the niece of King Pingyuan, it wouldn't be too shabby, so I listened to Mr. Zigang's suggestion and asked a good craftsman to carve it."

"Guaranteed sister-in-law will be obedient to elder brother from now on."

Liu Bei reprimanded lightly: "Yide, don't talk nonsense, Guo Xianren is also the daughter of a princess, and has been rich since childhood. If he likes me, he is already good. How can he ask for too much?"

Zheng Ping came out when he heard the sound, and seeing Zhang Fei's hidden appearance, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Yide, Guo Xianren's rich and noble family, I haven't seen any rare treasures, so don't make a joke."

Zhang Fei stared around his eyes, while gently opening the brocade box in his hand, he turned his head to look at Liu Bei, Zheng Ping, Guan Yu and others, for fear of being stolen.

After dawdling for a long time, Zhang Fei slowly opened the brocade box for everyone to watch.

Immediately, a refreshing fragrance hit the nostrils.

Everyone present changed color.

Zheng Ping flicked the feather fan, surprised: "This fragrance, Yide, you are really lucky!"

Liu Bei was also surprised: "It's such an intoxicating fragrance, like a fragrant woody fragrance, and like a hundred flowers blooming. Yide, what kind of strange thing is this?"

Zhang Fei wanted to show off a little: "This thing is called Ambergris, and it is rumored that it melts from the water of a real dragon in the sea. Mr. Zigang praised it for having the fragrance of the sun and the moon, and also like the fragrance of immortality in heaven."

"With this strange thing, how can sister-in-law not obey elder brother from now on?"

Liu Bei was pleasantly surprised: "Is there a real dragon in this sea? The real dragon gives incense, and the Han Dynasty is happy. Listening to what Xianmou said just now, you also know this dragon's saliva?"

Zheng Ping shook his fan and smiled lightly: "It is rumored that there is a dragon palace in the East China Sea, named Ligong, and there is a Lilong in the Ligong, and the Lilong has two treasures, one is a thousand gold pearls. The pearl must be led by Lilong in the Nine Layers Abyss, so there is a saying that Lilong nods the pearl."

"The second is the saliva of Tianxiang. According to legend, there are sharks outside the South China Sea. They live in water like fish. They don't waste their weaving. Their eyes can cry out pearls. And sharks like to pick incense most. They travel from south to north, riding a boat and following the tide , Sneak into the Lilong Palace, collect the tear-like ambergris and refine the fragrance. Therefore, there is a saying of Xunyuanchafeng."

"The ambergris obtained by Yide has a quiet fragrance without a trace of fishy smell, and a pure white color without any blemishes. It can be called the best ambergris."

"It is indeed a strange treasure!"

Zhang Fei laughed loudly: "Sir, you are talented! Mr. Zigang also said the same thing. Mr. Zigang also said that if you meet a beautiful woman, you will be like a fish in a spring, and you will be wet with each other, and you will be moist with each other."

"So I asked a good craftsman to carve this dragon saliva into the shape of a pair of fishes, and specially made this brocade box to cover up the fragrance."

Zhang Fei handed the brocade box to Liu Bei, and saw that the ambergris in the brocade box was as white as jade, and the carved double fish was even more lifelike.

"Sure enough, it's a rare treasure in the world!" Liu Bei couldn't help but praise it with admiration.

a long time.

Liu Bei closed the brocade box, but the scent of ambergris lingered in the air for a long time.

"Yide has a heart!" Liu Bei ordered the brocade box to be kept carefully, and invited Guan Yu and Zhang Fei inside to reminisce about the past.

The three brothers hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they had a lot to say from their hearts, and this chat took an hour to pass.

I could only hear laughter in the room, a scene of brotherhood and harmony.

The next day.

Liu Bei prepared all the etiquette for welcoming the relatives, and went to Pingyuan County with Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zheng Ping.

With Zhao Yu and Zhang Zhao assisting Liu Hui, Zheng Ping was able to divide government affairs from time to time, giving the officials of the governor's office more opportunities to practice.

Although Zheng Ping is not driving, and has an overview of Qingzhou's government affairs, Zheng Ping does not intend to do everything by himself.

Doing everything by yourself is a helpless move where there are no talented people under your command and you have to do it yourself.

If there are talented people to help, Zheng Ping will naturally distribute part of the power and responsibilities, so that he can have more energy to think about the general trend of the world.

Constantly looking for talents for Liu Bei is not only for Liu Bei, but also for Zheng Ping's own consideration.

If you are entangled in tedious government affairs all day long, it will be difficult to deal with calculations outside Qingzhou.

Take the Jizhou incident for example, if Liu Hui hadn't sorted out the information in advance, Zheng Ping would not have been able to predict Yuan Shao's plot in advance, and set Liu Bei's diplomatic strategy to support Han Fu and control Yuan Shao.

Plain County.

Lu Zhi has already taken care of everything for Liu Bei, and is waiting for Liu Bei to go to Pingyuan Palace to marry his bride.

Looking at the tall horse and Liu Bei with extraordinary bearing, King Pingyuan was in a happy mood, and he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.

"Half a year ago, Xuande was only the county magistrate of Gaotang, but half a year later, he would become the governor of Qingzhou."

"There are more warriors and talents to assist you under your command. Sure enough, I am a unicorn from the Han family!"

"The world is in chaos, thieves are rampant, and among the clan, there are people as handsome as Xuande, which are rare."

"God bless my Han family."

As the younger brother of Emperor Huan, Liu Shuo is also very sad about the current state of the Han Dynasty.

Although everyone in the world thinks that the Second Emperor Huanling is incompetent, Liu Shuo also has a lot of notoriety by the way.

But Liu Shuo was very helpless. In the early days of Emperor Huan Liu Zhi's accession to the throne, the Empress Dowager Liang came to the court to listen to the government, and her relative Liang Ji held the power.

Liu Zhi even had to be reprimanded by Queen Liang in the harem, and even if a favorite concubine became pregnant, she would be secretly harmed by Queen Liang.

Although relying on the power of the eunuchs to defeat the power of his relatives, the conflict between Liu Zhi and the bureaucratic scholar-bureaucrats began to appear again.

Liu Shuo is very clear about his elder brother's virtues.

After killing his relatives, Emperor Huan Liu Zhi discovered that the world had accumulated evils for a long time, and it was not something he, the forced emperor, could solve.

So Liu Zhi started to play badly.

He succeeded to the throne at the age of 22, and it took 13 years to finally kill the party of his relatives. It turned out that after taking power, the world is still the world of evils.

Without relatives, there is another group of bureaucratic scholar-bureaucrats.

Liu Zhi wanted to be an emperor himself, but these bureaucratic literati only wanted to teach Liu Zhi to be a good emperor in the hearts of literati.

Liu Zhi, who had been suppressed by his relatives for 13 years, felt that he was exhausted and couldn't handle the world. He didn't have a son yet, so Liu Zhi simply let the eunuchs fight with the scholar-bureaucrats, and then let himself go.

But a pity.

Even though Liu Zhi emptied his body, he failed to leave an heir, and died at the age of 36!

It is quite embarrassing to be an emperor to such a point.

Seeing Liu Bei in front of him, Liu Shuo suddenly had a bold idea.

"There are very few heroes in my clan like Xuande. If Xuande can succeed to the throne, with the help of this group of warriors and wise men, who would dare to underestimate my son of the Han family?"

"The position of Emperor Ling should have been inherited by the elder brother's heir."

"Even though my elder brother has no children, Ah Zhao is also my elder brother's niece, and they are all in the lineage of Emperor Zhang."

Gradually, Liu Shuo's eyes also became firm.

Young emperors are not qualified to hold power!
He spent most of his life fighting for the imperial power. After regaining the imperial power, he found that he couldn't govern the world, and in the end he had to mess it up.

Emperor Huan is like this, Emperor Ling is like this, Liu Shuo doesn't think that the current emperor Liu Xie can also get rid of this fate.

If you want to revive the glory of the Han Dynasty and reappear the rule of Guangwu Mingzhang, you can only follow the example of Emperor Guangwu and settle the world with war!

"Brother's regret, let this king fulfill his wish!"

"How can this world fall into the hands of outsiders?"

And on the other side.

Guo Zhao is also dressed in red makeup, waiting for the upcoming happy event.

It is a sad thing for Guo Zhao to marry his dead husband for the third time before leaving the cabinet.

Although Guo Zhao has a tough temperament, he did not appear to be troubled by rumors.

But this is just Guo Zhaoqiang's feigned tenacity.

Which woman can really not care about marrying her dead husband three times before leaving the cabinet?

Every night when people are alone in the dead of night, Guo Zhao will cry silently, lamenting the injustice of fate!
Liu Bei is the most heroic man Guo Zhao has ever seen.

Even though the situation in Qingzhou is so dangerous, Liu Bei has survived.

This made Guo Zhao couldn't help looking forward to this marriage!

A man who can survive in a difficult and dangerous environment will definitely not be afraid of the "Keff's face".

But because of the experience of the last three times, Guo Zhao was still a little uneasy, for fear that Liu Bei would encounter some misfortune on the way to welcome his relatives.

Until the maid came to report that Liu Bei had arrived at Pingyuan Palace, Guo Zhao's hanging heart finally became more stable.

Wear Xiapi and wear a phoenix crown.

When he actually got into the wedding sedan chair, Guo Zhao's anxiety completely disappeared.

This means that she, the daughter of the princess, the niece of Emperor Huan and King Yuan, has finally found a good belonging!

Considering the cold weather and the fact that it was too far from Pingyuan to Linzi, Liu Bei's new house was set up in Pingyuan City.

And just as Zhang Fei firmly asserted, when Liu Bei led Guo Zhao into the new house and gave Guo Zhao the top-quality dragon saliva carved into a double fish, Guo Zhao's whole body seemed to melt. Nothing else.

After the ceremony, Liu Bei found a good wife again after many years of wandering.

And this time.

The banquet in the courtyard is still going on.

Everyone raised their bottles to celebrate, very happy, but Zhang Fei was the only one who was unhappy, he didn't raise his bottle to celebrate with everyone, but sat at the same table with brothers Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Liang who came to Liu Bei's wedding banquet.

He kept drinking white water, and then looked at the wine bottles around him from time to time, with envy in his eyes.

"Third general, although my elder brother and I are young, we don't need you to accompany us all the time. If you want to go drink, that's all." Zhuge Liang picked up the water bottle elegantly, with a faint smile in his eyes.

Zhuge Jin also said: "Three generals, A Liang and I were young and couldn't drink, so we sat in this seat. You don't need to preempt it. You see, the young people around who want to talk are afraid to come."

Zhang Fei rolled his eyes and said, "Do I look scary? You can't drink alcohol when you are young, but I can drink alcohol? I am not interested in alcohol."

Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Liang looked at each other and shook their heads.

Not interested in wine?

I'm not interested. Why are you staring back and forth at other people's wine bottles?
Glancing at the disbelief in Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Liang's eyes, Zhang Fei felt helpless.

How could you not be interested in wine?

If he had to fulfill his bet with Zheng Ping not to drink for three years, how could Zhang Fei go to the seat specially reserved for young men who have not won the championship, and sit with Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Liang at the same table.

Drinking white water dully, Zhang Fei rubbed his fists: "Although you can't drink alcohol, it's okay to make a drinking order. Two boys, how long will you go with me?"

Zhuge Liang directly refused: "Third general, are you going to bully a boy who is not yet ten years old?"

Zhuge Jin sat upright: "Third General, I don't know how to make wine orders, and if I drink too much water, my stomach will bloat."

Zhang Fei was even more depressed.

While talking, Guan Yu suddenly came over with two bowls of wine: "Third Brother, I have been looking for you for a long time and I can't find you. Why did you come here?"

Zhuge Liang chuckled: "The third general said that he is not interested in wine."

Guan Yu was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly and said, "Third Brother, the Master said that today is my elder brother's wedding, this wine is drinkable, and it will not affect the bet between you."

Zhang Fei stood up abruptly, grabbed the wine bowl, and brought it to his mouth in an instant.

But when he got to his mouth, Zhang Fei stopped again, and said suspiciously: "Second Brother, Mister is not deliberately cheating, right? You tricked me into drinking this wine today, so you don't have to make me that top-quality wine."

Guan Yu snatched the wine bowl back, turned his head and left: "Ah Liang is right, third brother, you are indeed not interested in wine."

"Hey, wait! Second brother, wait for me! I was wrong, I'm interested in wine, I'm really interested in wine!" Zhang Fei hurriedly chased after Guan Yu, his tone quite eager.

After Zhang Fei left, a burly young man came to Zhang Fei's place and sat down.

"Lu Su from the Lower East City, a student from Linzi Chengguo, be polite!"

Zhuge Jin looked at Lu Su in surprise: "Have you passed the examination?"

The official school specially prepared for young heroes in Linzi City cannot pass the examination easily.

After all, once you enter, you can enjoy a subsidy of [-] shi for a year, and you can directly become the head of a county after you complete your studies. If you are not a real hero, you will not pass the examination.

However, those who fail the examination, among them the outstanding ones can also enter the official school to study, but the salary will be reduced, and they cannot call themselves "national students".

Unless you can stand out again in the future assessment, you can officially become a national student.

But Lu Su in front of him claimed to be a Chinese student, which naturally surprised Zhuge Jin.

"I am Zhuge Jin from Langya, this is my second brother Zhuge Liang." Zhuge Jin was in awe: "Brother Lu passed the examination, which is admirable."

"It's a fluke, a fluke." Lu Su said boldly, "I think my younger brother has an extraordinary bearing, and he will definitely pass the examination. From now on, we will be in the same school."

Infected by Lu Su, Zhuge Jin also had pride in his heart: "A while ago I was infected with a cold and couldn't go to the assessment. After the envoy's wedding is over, I will also go to Linzi City."

Lu Su laughed loudly: "It's just right, I'm going back to Linzi City too. Brother, remember to inform me when you're going, and there's someone to take care of you on this freezing road."

"If you encounter thieves, with the bow in my hand, you can also frighten Xiaoxiao."

Under Lu Su's seemingly heroic words, his heart is very delicate.

How can a young man who can sit at the same table with Zhang Fei be a thing in the pool?

How can we not make friends!
