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

Chapter 119: Zhao Zilong sees through the self-torture plot and speaks up for Su Chen
"Why is the military advisor laughing?"

Seeing him like this, Liu Bei frowned and rarely expressed his dissatisfaction.

"I have dealt with Huang Gongfu before. He is a loyal man. He did not surrender easily when he was in the central army camp just now. He just did not want Zhou Yu to be greedy for merit and advance rashly. But he was beaten with fifty sticks for no reason, and his skin was torn.

Who wouldn't feel sorry for General Huang after watching this? The military advisor actually laughed out loud this time. Isn't this a bit too cold-blooded? "

Look at Liu Bei like this.

Zhuge Liang was not panicked.

At this moment, he was gently waving the feather fan and explaining in a leisurely manner.

"It's not cold-blooded."

"Liang just feels that Huang Gai's thoughts right now may be exactly the opposite of what you think. He is not only not resentful of this beating, but he may even be happy with it."

"what?"

"You're happy with it?"

Liu Bei was stunned for a long time before he thought of something. With shining eyes, he asked Zhuge Liang opposite him again.

"What the military advisor means is... this was planned by Zhou Gongjin and Huang Gai long ago? Zhou Gongjin wants to use a self-torture strategy to make Huang Gai learn from Cai Zhong and his men and surrender to Cao Cao to be an insider?"

"Yes! It must be so!"

"Otherwise, considering Zhou Gongjin's character, it is absolutely impossible for him to be so cruel to this veteran general of the Third Generation of the Eastern Wu."

Zhuge Liang nodded heavily and spoke firmly.

“Ah, this…”

The three brothers Liu, Guan and Zhang on the opposite side were all stunned after hearing this.

After a moment, Liu Bei sighed again.

But this time when he spoke, his words were no longer depressed.

Instead, it was a bit excited.

"To fight against Cao Cao, the generals of the Eastern Wu are so united. With this, why should we worry about not accomplishing our great cause?!"

After hearing this, Zhuge Liang showed a rare hint of emotion on his face.

"The time is not as good as the location, and the location is not as good as the harmony of people."

"It is said that fortune and misfortune go hand in hand. The series of setbacks before have made the generals of Dongwu stick together now, which is indeed a good thing."

"But if we want to succeed in resisting Cao, this alone is not enough."

"Liang has to go and add more firewood!"

But in the end.

It turned into excitement again.

Finished saying this.

He could no longer sit still, so he stood up and walked out of the tent.

"Ah, the military advisor is going to give advice on this matter?"

And look at him like this.

The three brothers Liu, Guan and Zhang on the opposite side all changed color and felt inexplicably nervous.

He stepped forward and grabbed Zhuge Liang.

"Of course."

Seeing everyone's reaction was so strange.

Zhuge Liang was also surprised. He glanced at the people opposite him and said with a puzzled look in his eyes, "The main point of our Sun-Liu alliance this time is that we are of the same blood. Isn't it natural for me to give advice to Zhou Yu?"

"That's not what we mean. We are just worried... worried..."

Zhuge Liang looked puzzled.

Let alone Zhang Fei.

Even Liu Bei found it difficult to speak.

He stammered and was unable to speak for a long time.

But sometimes, silence is the answer.

What’s more, he is as smart as Zhuge Kongming.

Seeing everyone like this, Zhuge Liang was only slightly surprised.

I quickly guessed what everyone was thinking.

The expression on his face immediately became interesting.

After a long while, he finally spoke and asked, "My lord, do you think that with Liang's talent, he was not making suggestions in the past, but was actually doing more harm than good?"

Listen to him.

The three brothers Liu, Guan and Zhang all blushed.

After a long while, Liu Bei coughed twice and took the initiative to explain.

"Cough cough."

"What is the military advisor thinking about?"

"The military advisor's talent is obvious to all of us."

"But sometimes, when fate tells you something, you have to believe it."

"Moreover, it is said that the military advisor and the talented scholar have conflicting horoscopes, and that the other party is your unlucky star. Even if we don't believe it, the generals of Dongwu will believe it." "If this plan succeeds, it will be fine. If it fails, I am worried that the generals of Dongwu will blame the military advisor for this."

Liu Bei spoke earnestly.

As smart as Zhuge Liang was, he naturally knew that this was half true and half false.

But after listening to what he said.

His facial expression softened somewhat.

He finally spoke and told her his plan.

"Don't worry, my lord."

"I have naturally taken into consideration the fear of the Eastern Wu, so this time, I am not planning to go alone to give advice to Zhou Gongjin, but to bring someone else along."

"Anyone else?"

"Who exactly is this person that the military advisor is talking about?"

"Could it be that Lu Su and Lu Zijing?"

Hearing him say this, Liu Bei naturally showed a bit more curiosity and asked quickly.

"Zijing?"

Zhuge Liang was stunned.

When he came back to his senses, he couldn't hold back and just sneered.

"Haha, although Zi Jing has strategies, he is too honest and straightforward, and doesn't know how to adapt. He has only a small talent and can't be used for big things. It's like playing the lute to a cow to discuss such a brilliant plan with him. What am I going to do with him?"

"Do you remember the proverb that the lord said when he invited me out of the mountains? It said 'Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Chick...'"

Zhuge Liang waved his feather fan lightly, but before he could finish his words, Zhang Fei beside him took over the conversation.

"I know this, I know! Above the dragon and the phoenix, there is the Qilin!"

Zhang Fei was very excited.

But this sentence made Zhuge Liang choke to death.

He always behaves calmly.

It was rare that he was really angry. He glared at Zhang Fei opposite him and said.

"..."

"The proverb my lord used when he asked me to come out of the mountains!"

"General Zhang, are you kidding? If I'm not mistaken, there shouldn't have been a man called Qilin Talent at that time, right?"

Guan Yu also nodded, "Yes, the most popular saying at the time was, Crouching Dragon or Phoenix, if you get one, you can rule the world."

"I understand." Liu Bei suddenly realized, "Could it be that the military advisor is going to ask Mr. Fengchu to come out of retirement this time?"

Seeing the two of them like this, Zhuge Liang stopped arguing with Zhang Fei and nodded calmly.

"Not bad!"

"Moreover, Feng Chu is also a student of my master. His talent and learning are not inferior to mine, and he is now working in Dongwu!"

"He is in the Eastern Wu?" Liu Bei was surprised. "Since he is as talented as the military advisor and works in the Eastern Wu, why is he so unknown? In such a major event as the alliance against Cao, he has never appeared even once?"

Zhuge Liang looked a little embarrassed and hesitant after hearing this. "Although my junior fellow apprentice is also very talented, he has a flaw. It is because of this that he has not been promoted to a higher position."

"What flaws?" Liu Bei asked.

It is said that an ugly daughter-in-law must meet her parents-in-law.

This kind of thing cannot be concealed even if you want to.

Zhuge Liang naturally did not hide it, and after a moment he chose to tell the truth.

"His appearance... ahem, is quite unique."

"You look unique?"

Liu Bei was stunned.

He immediately understood what Zhuge Liang meant.

There was a hint of realization on his face.

"That's no wonder. Nowadays, the most important thing for an official is filial piety, integrity and appearance."

"Yes, because of this, my junior brother has been depressed and frustrated, which is a pity." Zhuge Liang nodded with a hint of emotion on his face.

Seeing him like this, Liu Bei became excited.

He quickly grabbed Zhuge Liang's hand, showing an eager look, and said.

"But those are just the chronic diseases of the officialdom."

"Military Advisor, when you go to invite this young phoenix to come out of the mountains, you can invite him to work under me. I will definitely treat him with courtesy and will never judge a person by his appearance!"

Zhuge Liang nodded and said, "Of course. I have the same idea. Looking around the world, is there any monarch as benevolent as you?"

Looking at the situation, they are about to fall into a situation of praising each other.

At the critical moment, Zhao Zilong, who had been silent, suddenly spoke and broke the silence.

He asked again to Liu Bei opposite him.

"My lord, you can be so generous to this young phoenix, but why couldn't you do the same to Mr. Su Chen before?"
