Three Kingdoms: Do you want me to get out of here? Liu Bei, you wait

Chapter 113: Zhao Zilong is on pins and needles; Zhou Gongjin's unspeakable secret
As soon as Zhuge Liang mentioned Zhou Yu, he became much more confident.

do not know why.

He always felt that he could easily control this person.

After saying this, Zhuge Liang did not delay.

He took a step immediately and strode towards Sanjiangkou.

Look at him leaving in a hurry.

Liu Bei also showed a bit more emotion on his face.

"Military Advisor Zhuge is a man of real talent and knowledge. He is very methodical in both debate and government affairs. He is also quite good at military affairs. It's a pity that he met a genius like Qilin."

Guan Yu agreed, "Yes, that genius is like a natural nemesis of Mr. Zhuge. If he hadn't interfered, Cao's army would have suffered a series of defeats since the Battle of Bowangpo. How could they be so vigorous as they are today?"

Hearing him say this, Liu Bei couldn't help but sigh again.

"Alas, a pearl is cast in the dark, a pearl is cast in the dark..."

"Such a man, who is both civil and military, how could he be so desperate to join Cao Cao's army?"

"If I can get the help of both Wolong and Qilin at the same time, why should I worry about not being able to accomplish my great cause?"

Liu Bei sighed.

In the end, I just started to think divergently.

He imagined the scene where both the talented scholar Qilin and Zhuge Liang were under his command.

It's not just him.

After hearing this.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were also lost in fantasy.

This time his expression was one of intoxication.

There was only one exception on the field.

That's Zhao Yun.

He was standing outside the big tent keeping watch.

Listen to what Liu Bei said.

Not only did he not show the same expression of sighing and sighing.

Instead, he showed an expression as if he was constipated and uncomfortable.

Standing in the big tent, the feeling can be described in four words - sitting on pins and needles.

Suddenly I feel that sometimes knowing more of the truth about something than others is not necessarily a good thing.

On the contrary, it may cause more pain.

Like now.

The more Zhao Zilong saw Liu Bei's high praise for the talented scholar, the more he thought about it.

The more worried I feel.

I’m worried that after the other party knows the truth, he or she won’t be able to accept it and will collapse.

"How about...tell the master the truth of the matter? Forget it, forget it, I can't tell you now."

"We have just suffered a defeat, and it is a critical time to rebuild morale. If the lord and his men knew the truth now, they would be completely devastated and unable to recover. What will we do then?"

Zhao Zilong’s mind was in turmoil.

I'm confused.

Suddenly, I heard Liu Bei's call.

"Zilong... Zilong..."

"What's wrong with you, Zilong?"

"what?"

"My Lord, you are calling me?"

Zhao Zilong was startled. After he came to his senses, he saw Liu Bei looking at him with concern, and he immediately saluted.

Liu Bei didn't care about these red tape.

After waving his hand, he immediately opened his mouth and started asking questions again.

"Yes. Zilong, what happened to you? Are you feeling unwell? You always seem absent-minded during this period of time."

"No, lord. I'm still thinking about what the military advisor said just now. I'm worried that Mr. Wolong will not be able to successfully persuade Zhou Gongjin this time."

After hearing this, Zhao Zilong made up an excuse.

"You don't have to worry about that. As long as the military advisor doesn't run into a genius, the probability of success is still very high. Instead of worrying about this, you might as well think about something more serious. Zilong, come here. I have something to ask you in private."

After hearing this, Liu Bei tried to comfort him casually.

He waved his hand and asked him to come into the tent to discuss in detail.

"Ask me in private?"

Zhao Yun was surprised, but followed in anyway.

I just entered the big tent.

Then Liu Bei suddenly grabbed his hand and asked excitedly.

"Zilong, didn't you also stay in Xiangyang for a while before? At that time, that Qilin talent was the leader of the Jiangzuo League, right? Do you know what kind of person he is?"

"Do you think that if I personally take action in the future, I will have a chance to win over this person and join the cause of reviving the Han Dynasty?"

After he finished speaking, his eyes were full of anticipation. Zhao Yun was completely dumbfounded after hearing this. "What do you mean, lord? Do you really want to recruit the talented Qilin to join us?"

"What's wrong? Is there any problem with this?" Liu Bei asked back.

"That's right, what does Zilong mean by that? Do you think my eldest brother is not as good as Cao Mengde who manipulates power and uses the emperor to control the princes?"

Zhang Fei spoke next, and there was a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes as he looked at Zhao Yun.

"It's more than just a problem, it's a huge problem."

Zhao Yun was helpless.

But many things are hard to say.

I could only speak and force an explanation.

"Ahem, Zilong certainly didn't mean that."

"Zilong has heard that the talented Qilin is... well, a person who is greedy for wealth and fame. Cao Cao is now powerful and he is in a high position. Under such circumstances, it is almost impossible to successfully recruit him to his own camp."

"A person who is greedy for wealth and fame?" Liu Bei was surprised.

"Yes, and he's a pretty boy! How can such a person endure hardship?"

Zhao Yun nodded. Although the complaints in his words were fake, the jealousy was real.

When I think of this guy Su Chen, not only is he superior to me in terms of intelligence and bravery, he's even more handsome than me.

Zhao Yun was so angry that his teeth were itching.

I feel that some things these days are really unfair.

However, facing his complaints at this moment.

However, Zhang Fei and his men on the opposite side were all unhappy.

He expressed doubts immediately.

"How could that talented Qilin be just a gigolo?"

"He can shoot a strong bow, comparable to Lü Bu shooting the halberd at the gate. How can a genius who is good at both literature and martial arts be a weak scholar?"

"Even if it's not a big bearded man like me, it should be a great man like my second brother."

"Zhao Zilong, are you just making this up or are you deliberately trying to flatter yourself?"

Zhang Fei's eyes were full of suspicion.

Zhao Yun felt helpless after seeing this.

I simply stopped explaining and just kept saying “yes, yes, yes”.

Just let these guys guess wildly.

……

at the same time.

At Zhou Yu's house.

Although she suffered a defeat this time, Xiao Qiao was still very happy to see Zhou Yu returning home.

Zhou Yu also hugged Xiao Qiao and said a lot of sweet words to her.

Listen to him say these sweet words.

Xiao Qiao was also happy.

But besides being happy, there was a hint of resentment in his tone.

"The general is just good at talking."

"My husband has been commanding troops in Sanjiangkou for several months since he accepted the mission to fight against Cao Cao. During these months, he has passed by our house three times without entering. I wonder if he has rested in the mansion today?"

Xiao Qiao said this, and stepped forward and grabbed Zhou Yu's hand.

His eyes are sparkling, as if they can speak.

But this time she was staring at him.

Zhou Yu, however, felt inexplicably frightened.

Outsiders only thought that the couple had a deep love for each other. When Zhou Yu was commanding troops outside, he never had any affairs with other women.

Little did they know that although Zhou Yu had achieved success at a young age, he had some unspeakable health problems.

Not to mention facing outsiders, even a stunning beauty like Xiao Qiao, with her stunning beauty and natural beauty, is powerless most of the time.

However, Zhou Gongjin has always been a person who cares most about his reputation.

In this matter, he was unwilling to give in.

After hearing what Xiao Qiao said, he immediately laughed dryly, brought out the old excuse, and talked about military and national affairs.

"Madam is joking."

"I also want to be with my wife every day, but unfortunately, I have already pledged my life to the country. Now the situation in Jiangdong is as precarious as an egg. In order to repay Sun Bofu's kindness, how dare I, Zhou Gongjin, slack off for a moment?"

Whenever he said this in the past, Xiao Qiao had no choice but to obey.

But after several years, the same rhetoric still applies when returning.

Xiao Qiao was obviously dissatisfied, and pouted.

"First we were stationed in Poyang, and then in Sanjiangkou for several months. To be honest, since we got married, my husband has never stayed at home for more than a month.

Although young men’s love lasts long and heroes’ breath is short, and a real man should put state affairs first, but can’t you spare a moment for this?”

When she spoke, her eyes were full of resentment, but also seemed to be filled with peach blossoms.
