Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 85 Not the Fourth Brother, Better Than the Fourth Brother

"Zi Yu's words are still useful. I have told you many times that Third Brother is a heavy drinker. No matter what you say on the surface, he still drinks in private."

Guan Yu, who was listening to the conversation between the two, also made a rare joke.

Um.
At this point, Guan Yu was just joking.

In fact, this arrogant guy is usually serious. He is stern with his close friends such as Liu Bei and Zhang Fei, but he always has a stern expression to others.

Being able to speak like this really means that he is very close to Xing Daorong.

Zhang Fei heard his second brother expose him, but complained: "How can it be the same? Big brother always says that I am delayed by drinking. Except for the time in Xuzhou when I admitted that Lü Bu stole the city, I never delayed important things because of this little bit of wine."

If this happened on a normal day, if Zhang Fei dared to talk about it, he would definitely be scolded by Guan Yu.

Back then, it was because of Zhang Fei's drinking that Liu Bei lost Xuzhou, and he suffered a lot since then.

This matter certainly would not create any grudge among the three brothers, but they all deeply hated the fact that Zhang Fei drank and messed up things.

Even after saying it several times, Zhang Fei didn't take it seriously.

Especially asking him to put down the jar of wine after drinking half of it, that was simply impossible.

Unexpectedly, Xing Daorong really convinced Zhang Fei with just a few words.

Guan Yu didn't know that the key was not to forbid Zhang Fei from drinking, but in their deep brotherly love.

To put it bluntly, if you say to Zhang Fei, "If you drink again, Liu Bei will die soon," then Zhang Fei will definitely not drink.

Zhang Fei smiled and said, "I love to listen to what Ziyou says. These past two days, I have been studying Ziyou's poem "Linjiangxian" and I feel that the artistic conception is free and unrestrained."

When Guan Yu heard that Zhang Fei was actually studying Xing Daorong's poems, he narrowed his eyes.

Suddenly he changed the subject and said, "I heard from my lord that Ping'er is now serving as Ziyu's deputy general. Is she doing her job well?"

There is no reason to say bad things about the son in front of his father. Besides, Guan Ping himself is not bad and there is really nothing to criticize.

Then he spoke kindly, "The young general is a man of both civil and military talents, loyal, filial, chaste and righteous. He is a man of great loyalty, filial piety, kindness and courage."

"In the future, I will protect the dynasty and the country just like General Guan."

Guan Yu seemed very satisfied.

He stroked his long beard and said, "You should follow Zi Yu and learn more."

As he spoke, Guan Yu's expression suddenly changed and he looked in one direction.

Xing Daorong looked over and saw that it was Liu Feng who was standing next to Liu Bei, and he didn't know what he was saying.

No matter when, Liu Bei was definitely the most watched person. Liu Feng stood next to Liu Bei, looking very loved, and everyone could see it at this moment.

But whether other people are happy, sad, or even angry about this is not certain.

After seeing this, Xing Daorong finally understood why no one helped Liu Feng when he was about to die. This guy acted too hastily and too high-profile, and was far less "honest" than Liu Chan. Liu Chan was not a wise ruler, but he was generous and kind to his subordinates, and he did inherit Liu Bei's bloodline.

In comparison, Liu Feng's behavior was a bit too ostentatious.

Xing Daorong couldn't help but sigh at the side, "Before Shi Yuan died, he told the young master twice that he just needed to fight for the lord on the battlefield. Today, it seems that the young master didn't take it to heart."

Guan Yu snorted coldly when he heard this, but turned his head away without even looking at Liu Feng. He just asked Xing Daorong again, "I heard that General Liu Feng also wanted to follow Zi Yu?"

Xing Daorong heard a click.

Xing Daorong had already confirmed the fact that Guan Yu looked down on Liu Feng from his expression just now.

Besides, he and Guan Yu had just met when he learned that Liu Feng was going to be his deputy general. Obviously, although he was not around, he was always paying attention to Liu Feng's situation.

This guy.
But he was more concerned about Liu Feng than he thought. Liu Feng himself probably couldn't have been unaware of this.

It is really worth talking about why Liu Feng did not save Guan Yu after the "White Clothes Crossing the River" that day.

These speculations made Xing Daorong feel heavy-hearted.

Originally, he was thinking of performing well on the battlefield, but now that he was about to take control of Chengdu, he discovered that the struggle in the "court" might be even more dangerous, and naturally he felt depressed.

Facing Guan Yu's words, he also responded sullenly: "It is true, but I did not agree to it. Firstly, I was afraid that something would happen to him in my hands, and secondly, it was not suitable for him."

Guan Yu listened and nodded slightly: "Zi Yu is our brother after all, and he thinks exactly the same as us. It's a pity that we didn't get to know him earlier. Otherwise, we could be brothers."

Obviously, Xing Daorong's choice was very much to Guan Yu's liking.

Zhang Fei had not participated in the previous conversation about Liu Feng, but only at this moment did he join in and said, "Who says it's not true? Zi Yu is full of magnanimity, and he is truly a real man!"

Xing Daorong smiled and said, "Brotherhood is about feelings, not appearance. As long as there is true friendship in the heart, why bother about knowing each other earlier or later?"

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei laughed when they heard this. They patted Xing Daorong on the shoulder and said, "That's right! Zi Yu, come here! Let's have a drink together. We're brothers from now on!"

Faced with the invitation from the two big brothers, Xing Daorong naturally raised his glass.

The three of them drank it all in one gulp, and Xing Daorong seemed to have really become the fourth younger brother.

It is actually normal for Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to have such an attitude towards Xing Daorong.

Xing Daorong not only risked his life on the battlefield, but also blocked a knife for Liu Bei.

Without mentioning anything else, just the fact of blocking the knife is enough to make the two brothers completely treat Xing Daorong as their own.

But to outsiders, these three people are so harmonious.

Everyone knows the bond between Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. Now that Zhang Fei and Guan Yu are sandwiched between Xing Daorong, it is obvious that there is an extra link in the bond.

At the moment, no matter whether they were those from Jingzhou who followed Liu Bei to fight or those from Yizhou who had just surrendered, he saw it all.

For a moment, everyone had their own thoughts.

Regardless of their thoughts, their attention to Xing Daorong reached a unique level.

Many people have even put Xing Daorong before Zhao Yun, and his status can be said to be the fifth person in Liu Bei's group.

After the night's revelry, Xing Daorong returned to his own village to rest. Just as he lay down, he saw Zhuge Liang come in.

At the previous banquet, Xing Daorong was held by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and had no chance to greet others. So he was not particularly surprised to see Zhuge Liang coming to find him.

I don’t know why, but when I see Sleeping Dragon, I think of Phoenix Chu.

Xing Daorong's face suddenly turned bitter, and he was drunk. His true feelings were revealed, and he bowed to Zhuge Liang and said, "Kong Ming! I failed to protect Military Advisor Pang!"

In fact, Zhuge Liang was also extremely saddened by Pang Tong's death. Since the two were equally famous as the Dragon and the Phoenix, they naturally sympathized with each other.

Seeing Xing Daorong howling like this, he was immediately filled with sorrow, and said in a sad voice: "Zi Yu, I have heard about this matter. I really can't blame you. Don't blame yourself."

When these two people cried, it was really earth-shattering.

Those outside the tent saw Zhuge Liang entering Xing Daorong's tent and heard the two of them crying bitterly. They knew that they were mourning the death of Pang Tong.

I just want to cry with each other, how can people with close relationship do that?
This matter quickly spread from mouth to mouth and became a strange topic.
