The Three Kingdoms: My Wife is a Great and Good Teacher

Because Zhang Liao and Gao Shun were from the same hometown, and Zhang Liao was Liu Zhaoqing's confidant and Liu Zhaoqing trusted him very much, so Liu Zhaoqing entrusted Zhang Liao with the responsibility of following and guiding Gao Shun in the future.

It can be said to be surveillance and guidance, but the former is actually more important.

Zhang Liao is now a Tianzi hero. Although Gao Shun is also a Tianzi, according to Zhang Liao, he seems to have just entered the realm, and he is more inclined to command the army. Although he has some martial arts, he is at most equivalent to the peak of the Dizi heroes among the other martial arts.

There would definitely be no problem for Zhang Liao to take up this position.

After solving the problem of subduing Gao Shun, Liu Zhaoqing was in a very good mood.

"By the way, has Wenyuan seen Zilong?"

"I didn't see her next to Miss Xun." Zhang Liao shook his head. "It seems that she went to Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan's place. Do you want me to call her back?"

After thinking for a moment, Liu Zhaoqing shook his head: "They are all old acquaintances. I don't have anything to do with her, so there is no need to call her specially."

Zhang Liao nodded, and then at Liu Zhaoqing's suggestion, the two went to meet the imprisoned Gao Shun.

Gao Shun was imprisoned in a tent with her hands and feet tied with special ropes. Although Zhao Yun could not keep an eye on her all the time, there was a tent for Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao to rest alone next to the tent where she was imprisoned.

In this way, even if Gao Shun managed to escape, they would still be able to detect it at the first time, and Gao Shun would not be able to escape no matter what.

After meeting Gao Shun, he felt relieved to see that she was still as cold and hostile to Liu Zhaoqing.

After leaving Zhang Liao alone to chat with him, Liu Zhaoqing walked out of the tent.

Then he asked Yinglong in his heart whether it had any special opinion of him?

"Opinion? Which one are you talking about?"

"It will be all right."

"He is an ordinary mortal. The man called Zhang Liao is quite talented, but like the tied-up woman, he has never encountered the right opportunity."

"Ah? Zhang Liao broke through from the human level to the sky level, but he hasn't encountered this yet?" Liu Zhaoqing asked in his heart.

"The 'heaven' mentioned by you mortals is not an ant to the spirits of heaven and earth, but its strength is at most equivalent to that of a high-level auspicious beast."

"However, the reason why the auspicious beast is auspicious is not only because of its strength, but also because it can mobilize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and can also command the tribe."

"But the only people a mortal can command are those who are lower than themselves."

"So...?" Liu Zhaoqing spoke when he saw Yinglong didn't say anything.

"So, those two people, including yourself, have not yet reached their peak, and there is still a lot of room for improvement."

From this perspective, Yinglong has integrated into human society. If it were in the past, he would probably express his disdain coldly and would never have said such "high EQ" words.

But Yinglong's remarks were not of "high emotional intelligence". He truly believed that Zhang Liao and others needed improvement.

"For example, the one called Zhang Liao, she has the aura of Zou Wu on her body, which is obviously Zou Wu's reward to her, but she has not made a contract with Zou Wu."

"Ah? Are you saying that... Wenyuan has a chance to get the original Zouwu?" Liu Zhaoqing was surprised. "This... is impossible, right?"

"Why is this impossible?" Yinglong felt that Liu Zhaoqing was making a fuss out of nothing.

"Have you forgotten what I said before?"

"Are you talking about what happened two thousand years ago?" Liu Zhaoqing realized that what Yinglong meant by "not grasping it" should be referring to the fact that the mortals nowadays do not travel with spiritual beasts like their ancestors did two thousand years ago.

Not only is he powerful himself, but he can also perfectly integrate with the spirit of heaven and earth and control the spiritual energy of heaven and earth at the same time. This is the ultimate power of mortals.

Yinglong, who has witnessed or inherited the powerful memories of ancient mortals in his mind, naturally feels that today's mortals are "weak" even if they are outstanding people.

"It's not two thousand years ago now. A lot has changed. Back then, Xuzhou and Yuzhou were still a big lake." Liu Zhaoqing shook his head.

"But...if Wenyuan could really have the help of Zouwu's original body and ride on that huge tiger, wouldn't he be as brave as Lu Bu?"

Yinglong's words still made Liu Zhaoqing very excited. With the blessing of Red Hare, Lu Bu was even more ferocious than the most ferocious beast. This was enough to prove how much improvement having a suitable partner and a powerful mount could bring. It also proved that Yinglong's words were indeed correct and they had a lot of room for improvement.

But this kind of thing can only be encountered by chance, and now I don’t know when I will see Zou Wu again, it all depends on fate.

"And you said I also have room for improvement?" Liu Zhaoqing asked again in his mind as he walked: "Tell me more."

"Your martial arts are like a little animal learning to run. You have a sword that can avoid water, but you use it like an ordinary iron sword to slash. You have a divine object like the Book of Man, but it is limited to mortals."

Yinglong said a lot of things coldly, and his decisive manner showed that he had been holding it in his heart for a long time.

Liu Zhaoqing was speechless after hearing this, but he also felt happy in his heart. Doesn't this just prove that Yinglong still cares about his development?

"I'm learning martial arts... It's true that I didn't use the Water-Repellent Sword to its full potential. I can also feel that its power is more than that. As for the human book, what does that mean?" Liu Zhaoqing asked.

"You also know that the 'Ren' in 'The Book of Man' means the spirits of heaven and earth. Since you can make mortals return to their hearts, have you ever thought that the spirits of heaven and earth are not just mortals?" Yinglong said.

Liu Zhaoqing was stunned: "Does that mean I can still contact the auspicious beasts and make them return to their hearts?"

"How else do you think your ancestors had such a powerful army accompanied by spirit beasts?"

"..."

After a moment of silence, Liu Zhaoqing continued, "But this is difficult, isn't it? In this era, it is not difficult to find a mortal who can lift a tripod with one hand, but to find a divine beast that respects me and is willing to return to me, that is almost impossible, right?"

"That's your problem."

-

After returning to his tent, Liu Zhaoqing wanted to rest for a while.

But unexpectedly, I met an unexpected guest.

The person who came in was wearing light armor and had a calm and delicate face under her shoulder-length hair. However, after she came in and saw Liu Zhaoqing, her eyes, which should have been calm all the time, suddenly subconsciously turned away, as if she felt guilty.

"Cao Ren?" Liu Zhaoqing looked surprised. He really didn't expect Cao Ren to come.

"Sister... the lord said that he hopes to invite you and Liu Bei to our tent tonight to have a small gathering to discuss the next situation." Cao Ren said.

It turns out that Cao Ren came here to deliver a message to Cao Cao, so this is understandable.

However, it was normal for Cao Cao to look for me, but it was a bit strange if he looked for Liu Bei. However, it seems that Cao Cao felt that the three sisters of Liu Bei were strong and had good character, and were people he could make friends with.

Otherwise, it couldn't be that Cao Cao had set his sights on Guan Yu's martial arts, right? The Cao Cao in this world line should not have seen Guan Yu in action, and Liu Zhaoqing had never seen Cao Cao show any special appreciation for Guan Yu.

I don’t know if Cao Cao in this world would still be Guan Yu’s “number one fan”.

"Alliance leader?"

A call pulled Liu Zhaoqing back from his wandering thoughts, and Liu Zhaoqing immediately apologized: "Sorry, I was lost in thought."

"I also intend to discuss the situation in detail with Meng De, so please tell General Cao Ren to go back and tell him that Sister Xuande and I will be here as promised."

Cao Ren nodded, and Liu Zhaoqing then turned around and walked towards the couch to take a nap to recover his energy.

After all, even though his physique is now comparable to that of the top talents, he still needs to sleep and rest.

But when Liu Zhaoqing just got on the bed, he found that he did not hear the footsteps of Cao Ren leaving. He turned his head and found that Cao Ren was still standing there.

"General Cao Ren, do you have anything else to say?" Liu Zhaoqing asked.

Cao Ren was silent for a moment, put his right hand on the sword at his waist, and said slowly: "What happened before..."

Before she could finish, Liu Zhaoqing's voice came: "Um... I really didn't know that was your gold coin. Everything is with me. General, just take it. There's no need to hurt the relationship."

Cao Ren realized that his nervous and subconscious behavior had caused the other party to misunderstand him, and he quickly took his hand off the hilt of the sword.

Liu Zhaoqing finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Who understands this? Suddenly bringing up what happened before and putting his hand on the sword, it seems a little abnormal no matter how you look at it.

"I'm not here to ask for money." Cao Ren shook his head.

"no?"

"Yes." Cao Ren looked at Liu Zhaoqing, hesitated for a moment, then knelt on one knee and bowed to Liu Zhaoqing: "I misunderstood the leader before, and I am here to apologize..."

After being stunned for a moment, Liu Zhaoqing immediately stood up and walked to her to help her up: "General Cao Ren, what are you doing?"

After Liu Zhaoqing asked a few questions, she understood that Cao Ren initially thought that Liu Zhaoqing was not as noble as the rumors said. As for why she felt so, Cao Ren hesitated but did not explain.

But when Cao Ren saw that Liu Zhaoqing was not afraid in the face of doubts from the princes, and was indeed one of the few people like her cousin, whose biggest goal was purely to oppose Dong, he realized that she was a person with a true sense of justice.

Cao Ren felt that he had prejudice and misunderstanding against Liu Zhaoqing, so he took the opportunity to come here to apologize.

This should have been a trivial matter. Everyone has misunderstood others.

But obviously, Cao Ren's character was a bit straightforward, because Liu Zhaoqing had a good relationship with Cao Cao, and it was foreseeable that Cao Cao would have more cooperation with Liu Zhaoqing in the future, so Cao Ren did not want Liu Zhaoqing to have any grudges because of such things.

However, even if Cao Ren did not come to apologize, Liu Zhaoqing would not have any grudges.

"If you plead guilty, I'll forgive you. Drinking is not allowed in the army. How about we use tea instead of wine and toast each other. This matter will be over. How do you think?"

Liu Zhaoqing's proposal was quickly agreed upon.

After Cao Ren took the tea poured by Liu Zhaoqing and drank it, her brows slowly relaxed.

-

At night, when the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, there is still a lot of noise at the edge of the army's base, which is the necessary training and patrol.

But in the center, the place where the princes rest is relatively quiet.

Liu Zhaoqing was not too far from Cao Cao's tent and could reach it in just a few dozen steps.

Half a minute before the agreed time, Liu Zhaoqing arrived at Cao Cao's military camp with Liu Bei.

"Huh? The leader is here?" The first familiar person he saw was Xiahou Yuan, who was carrying a large bow.

She seemed to be very interested in Liu Zhaoqing and greeted him with a smile as soon as she saw him.

Liu Zhaoqing responded with a smile and introduced Liu Bei next to him. Xiahou Yuan also said that he knew Liu Bei and that his lord had mentioned him frequently recently.

When asked later where she was going with the long bow at night, Xiahou Yuan winked cunningly and said it was a secret.

After saying goodbye to him, Liu Zhaoqing met Cao Ren who was walking towards him again.

"The Lord is in the resting tent. Alliance Leader and Prime Minister Liu, please come in."

Liu Zhaoqing and Liu Bei nodded and walked towards Cao Cao's tent.

Led by Liu Zhaoqing, he smelled a strange smell when he lifted the door curtain.

It has an inexplicable fragrance, but it is not like the scent of burning sandalwood incense, because those are unlikely to make your mouth water.

"What's that smell?" Liu Zhaoqing murmured.

"It should be some kind of plum, right?" Liu Bei behind him wondered.

At this time, Cao Cao's laughter also came from the front.

"Sister Xuande is really perceptive. She could smell that this is Qingmei just as she got to the curtain door."

"Qingmei?"

Liu Zhaoqing looked at Cao Cao, who was wearing a black gown. In front of three small couches, there was a small square table. In addition to snacks, the most eye-catching thing on the table was an exquisite little pot.

There was a stove boiling at the bottom of the pot. Amidst the gurgling sound, a fresh fragrance continued to overflow from it along with the steam.

"Just leave the curtain open." Cao Cao sat down first.

She looked at Liu Zhaoqing and Liu Bei and smiled: "Come, the three of us will drink two pots of green plum wine and talk about heroes in the world."

"Drink?" Liu Bei seemed a little surprised.

He turned around and glanced at Liu Zhaoqing, and at this time Cao Cao also smiled and said: "This has nothing to do with our leader. I asked Zixiao's sister to go back to Chenliu to get this wine."

A few days ago, a unified decision was made that "alcohol" would not be included in the logistics of the coalition forces.

The main reason is very simple. I am afraid that this thing will delay things.

The wine of today is not as strong as the one extracted through distillation, and it does not play a big role in battlefield treatment. It is far better to bring a few heroes with the gift of healing.

Therefore, "wine" is purely a numbing consumable for enjoyment and to relieve worries.

"Didn't you say that it's best not to drink alcohol..." Liu Bei hesitated.

Cao Cao had already prepared a response, so she smiled and said, "We just don't list wine as part of our baggage purchases, but that doesn't mean you can't drink it."

"Sister Xuande should also know that there are still many outstanding people in the army who need to drink to stimulate their heavenly gifts, so Zhaoqing did not issue strict orders."

This sophistry made Liu Zhaoqing shake his head helplessly, but now that things had come to this, Liu Zhaoqing had nothing more to say.

Just one or two pots of sake really wouldn't have much of an impact. The three of them all had strong physical conditions, so it was probably just like drinking some beverages.

Seeing that Liu Zhaoqing didn't say anything, Liu Bei didn't want to spoil the fun anymore. After sitting on the other side, Liu Bei thought for a while and asked, "Why did Captain Cao call me Sister Xuande?"

"Isn't that also what our leader is called?" Cao Cao said.
