Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

As the atmosphere seemed to be silent for a moment, Zhang Fei gradually realized something, and his eyes wandered between Liu Bei and Li Ji.

Li Ji naturally knew Liu Bei's difficulties, and this matter went against Liu Bei's ideas.

People are always multi-faceted, and so is Liu Bei.

He is benevolent, he is ambitious, and he is also loyal.

Even in the original trajectory, when the Han Dynasty declined and the emperor became a puppet in the hands of Cao Cao, while the Han clan clan members who were state shepherds looked on coldly, Liu Bei was the only one running around to shoulder the responsibility of reviving the Han Dynasty. The big flag is enough to prove what Liu Bei's philosophy is.

Perhaps in the eyes of many people, that is just a slogan used by Liu Bei to gild himself.

However, the fact is that Cao Cao, Sun Quan, Liu Biao and other separatist tyrants all admitted it. Even the emperor placed his hopes on Liu Bei and let Liu Bei participate in the "bloody clothes and edicts".

Now, Li Ji undoubtedly posed a big problem for Liu Bei, choosing between the people and the court, and choosing between benevolence and loyalty.

This is not what a minister should do, but Li Ji understands that this is something Liu Bei must face sooner or later.

As Wu County begins to develop in a big way, details in all aspects will inevitably begin to look different from those of loyal ministers.

Li Ji's ambition is not to save this decadent Han Dynasty from collapse, but to create a new Han Dynasty for thousands of people, with the benevolent Liu Bei as the emperor, and to recreate the prosperous age of China, not the five-year period. The tragedy of Huanhua.

With one heart and one mind...

In the past, every time Liu Bei talked about this word, Li Ji felt a little guilty for no reason, but now he also wanted to have a frank talk with Liu Bei.

Liu Bei's silence this time was unprecedentedly long. It was so long that Zhang Fei couldn't stand the tense atmosphere, and said.

"Brother, please say something."

"Yide..."

Finally Liu Bei spoke, and his voice was slightly hoarse. "Yide, please go outside the door. Brother, I need to talk to Zikun about something."

Zhang Fei pointed at himself in surprise, never expecting that one day his elder brother would have something to hide from him.

However, Zhang Fei saw Liu Bei and Li Ji looking at each other with unprecedented heavy eyes, and he also understood that there might be some major differences between Liu Bei and Li Ji.

"Brother, Mr. Zikun, I'll be waiting outside the door. Call me in when you're done."

Zhang Fei said angrily, and then walked out the door.

Xiahou Bo looked shocked when he saw Zhang Fei being kicked out...

After all, as Liu Bei's personal bodyguard, Xiahou Bo knows very well how good the relationship between Liu Bei, Guan and Zhang is. Liu Bei and Zhang Fei even slept next to each other last night. It is not an exaggeration to say that he regards Zhang Fei as a real brother. .

"There's something nice to see."

Zhang Fei glanced at Xiahou Bo, and then stood on the other side of the door, his ears unconsciously listening to the movements in the house, thinking about what he should do if Liu Bei and Li Ji fought in the house later. Help whom.

It seems that there is no need to help the elder brother. Mr. Zikun cannot defeat the elder brother;

But if you want to help Mr. Zikun, it would not be good to attack your eldest brother.

But if the two don't help each other, Zhang Fei will feel anxious as he watches his left hand beat his right hand.

'It would be great if the second brother was here. It would be best for me and the second brother to hold each other...'

And when Zhang Fei could only listen to his random thoughts in the corner outside the door, Liu Bei asked Li Ji with a solemn expression in the room where there were only two people left.

"Zikun, your idea is a bit dangerous. It was intended to supervise Guo Yi, but it was actually stealing the real power of Kuaiji County. This was not done by a loyal minister, but who was instigating and bewitching you behind your back?"

Li Ji's expression changed slightly, and after sighing, he said. "Lord, there may be people in the world who can outsmart me in terms of strategy, but there is absolutely no one who can fool me. I... know very well what I was talking about just now."

This made Liu Bei's face visibly twitch, and his eyebrows were knitted together. He seemed to be angry and wanted to scold Li Ji, but he endured it reluctantly and said.

"Zi Kun, we are Han ministers and we are eating Han's salary. How can we do the things of Han thieves? You can't do it! The words of the talented Zi Kun should be treated as a joke that you were still drunk last night. You must never do it again in the future. carry."

"Lord!!"

Li Ji suddenly raised his voice, understanding that the matter had come to this and there was no reason to back down!

"The prerequisite for you and me to be Han ministers is not to be Han people first. In my lord's heart, is a great Han a man of one person, or is it a great Han built by all the people in the world?"

"Today, my lord, can you see how many Han people have been displaced and have no place to stay? Is such a big Han still the strong Han who is famous all over the world? Or is it the strong Han founded by Emperor Gaozu who overthrew the Qin Dynasty?"

"How is the Han Dynasty of today different from the violent Qin Dynasty in the past? Moreover, Ji is not a Han thief, nor does he want to steal from the Han Dynasty. He actually wants the lord to imitate Emperor Guangwu and save the Han Dynasty!"

These words were undoubtedly a naked expression of Li Ji's aspirations, and they were so shocked that Liu Bei looked shocked, pointed at Li Ji with a trembling finger, and said.

"Zi Kun, Zi Kun, do you know what you are talking about?" "Why are you here?! Today, Zi Kun was just temporarily deceived by a traitor, and with Zi Kun's ability, it may not be impossible for him to realize his ambition of ruling the world with one county. ”

"Previously, when there was such a catastrophic disaster in the Central Plains, with the joint cooperation of Bei and Zikun, didn't they resettle countless refugees so that they would have another chance to live and work in peace and contentment?"

"As long as you and I work together to develop the south of the Yangtze River for ten or twenty years, we can ensure that all people in the world have food and clothing."

Li Ji slowly shook his head, looked at Liu Bei candidly, and said.

"Lord, you and I don't have twenty years, not even ten years, five years at most... The body will not be able to support itself after being depleted by drinking and sex today."

"As long as the emperor dies, with the current chaotic situation, even the lord should know that the two young princes will not be able to suppress the chaotic situation, and troubled times... are bound to come!"

These words made Liu Bei's pupils shrink, and he subconsciously grabbed Li Ji's shoulders and said.

"Zikun, do you know what you are talking about? What nonsense are you talking about?"

Li Ji looked at Liu Bei, who looked a little ferocious in front of him, and understood the huge gap in Liu Bei's heart at this moment.

In Liu Bei's eyes, this world was always difficult. Fortunately, with the help of his two sworn brothers and Li Ji, he fought with his life in exchange for a place in Wu County where he could realize his ambition.

And under Li Ji's governance, the land of Wu County is prospering at a speed that is almost visible to the naked eye. Once the water conservancy reform in Wu County is completed, there will be more than ten thousand hectares of fertile land that can be cultivated, enough to support countless people.

Perhaps, once the ambition of "ruling the world with one county" is realized, countless states and counties south of the Yangtze River will follow suit. It is not impossible to repeat this process and recreate a prosperous and prosperous age.

In Liu Bei's eyes, the world may be in ruins, but it is developing bit by bit towards a promising future...

However, the worldly life full of hope in Liu Bei's eyes was torn to pieces by Li Ji in an instant. Li Ji announced in a firm and naked tone that the emperor would die within five years, and what followed was a vying for the throne. of troubled times.

Liu Bei...never doubted Li Ji.

Everything Li Ji predicted was accurate, and everything he deduced about the future was correct. This gave Liu Bei an almost obsessive confidence in Li Ji.

Even with such a conclusion that was full of rebellion against the emperor, Liu Bei still did not have the slightest doubt and believed Li Ji's conclusion almost subconsciously.

Almost instantly, Liu Bei immediately found an excuse for the loyal and virtuous Li Ji to come up with the idea of ​​"imitating Emperor Guangwu and rebuilding the Han Dynasty".

At this moment, Liu Bei even felt sorry for Li Ji.

The future that Li Ji saw was so far-reaching, and how much he had to bear alone without anyone to share it with him.

Liu Bei was naturally unwilling to be a traitor to the Han Dynasty, but if Liu Bei was asked to imitate Emperor Guangwu, Liu Bei would naturally not resist, and even felt a little complacency and satisfaction in his heart.

Being compared to Emperor Guangwu by Li Ji is a very high praise and honor in Liu Bei's opinion.

'It turns out that Bei's image in Zikun's heart is so tall? '

At this thought, Liu Bei involuntarily puffed up his chest slightly.

Previously, in the eyes of Liu Bei, Li Ji was suspected of being a Han traitor who wanted to secretly seize the real power of Kuaiji County, but this also changed to Li Ji knowing that troubled times were coming, so he was gathering strength to revive the Han Dynasty.

There was no need for Li Ji to explain, but Liu Bei mentally justified Li Ji's rebellious act just now.

However, Liu Bei thought for a while and asked tentatively.

"Zi Kun, is it possible that the coming of troubled times is unstoppable? With Zikun's ability, is there nothing he can do to turn the tide?"

Li Ji sighed and said.

"My lord, Ji is just a mortal body, not an immortal. Even though he is watching my lord govern Wu County, take in the refugees, establish the Rende Academy, and his reputation for benevolence is flourishing, the Yuan family even secretly sent Xu You to hook up with Guo Yi. I intend to attack and plunder the southern counties to ruin the lord's reputation."

"It is conceivable that the political struggle in the court today is so dangerous. How can we, who have no foundation, be able to intervene?"

"The chaos in the world is not only caused by the officials and families, but also by the courts. But even the courts can't intervene in the slightest, so how can we stop the chaos and turn the tide?"

When Liu Bei heard this, his expression that had been forced to mention it became obviously sad again.

Li Ji and Guo Yi had been at odds for more than two months. Even if the Jinyi Division's arrangements in Kuaiji County were inadequate, such a long time was enough to detect Xu You's existence.

By following the clues, it is easy to determine which force is driving it behind the scenes.

The ten regular attendants and the famous Yuan family were all involved.

This undoubtedly made Liu Bei gradually see through the decaying court, and he spoke with emotion and hatred.

"It's deplorable that all the officials in this house are traitors of the Han Dynasty. They have lived in Han Dynasty for a long time and don't know the kindness of Han Dynasty. My people are tired and have no place to live and shelter!"
