Liu Bei cleverly shied away the blame and bluntly said that he was being ignored by his traitor.
Tian Yu and Chen Su could no longer speak.
It's up to you, but I'm not in charge anyway.
"Your Majesty, I actually have one more thing I want to ask."
Chen Su did not forget Sima Yi's instructions and said cautiously: "I don't know Mr. Wolong's body..."
Liu Bei looked worried, "This is not easy for outsiders to understand!"
Chen Su knew it well. If Zhuge Liang's life was not in danger, how could Liu Bei have such an expression?
It seems that the eunuch Huang Hao is still quite powerful!
After three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, Liu Bei saw them off.
Zhuge Liang walked out from behind the screen and shook his feather fan lightly, not looking like he was being assassinated.
"Kong Ming! Didn't I say that you would continue to rest on the bed? Who asked you to come and eavesdrop?"
Liu Bei seemed to be blaming him, but he was actually caring, which moved Zhuge Liang very much.
"Your Majesty...it's okay to show off your body..."
Zhuge Liang wanted to tell Liu Bei that Huang Hao's assassination was a deliberate design by him to confuse Cao Cao and Sun Quan.
It looked like the wound was quite deep, but in fact it didn't hit a vital point at all. It just needed to stop the bleeding and rest.
"It seems that Tian Guorang is always thinking about his friendship with the king."
"On the contrary, Chen Deng's son is a huge disappointment."
"This person has not inherited the style of his father Chen Deng at all."
Mentioning Tian Yu and Chen Deng, Liu Bei couldn't help but sigh.
Tian Yu was trapped by filial piety. After his mother died of illness, Liu Bei was beaten to a pulp by Cao Cao and hid in Tibet all day long.
Chen Deng is trapped by his family. Without him, the Chen family will definitely become a second-rate family in Xuzhou. As long as his surname is Chen, he will not be able to follow Liu Bei.
"Forget it... Guorang is guarding the border after all, and will not fight with our army."
"Otherwise, this person is acquainted with Yun Chang, Yide and Zilong, and it would be difficult to handle."
"Back then, Gongsun Bogui also praised Guo Rang's talents."
On the one hand, Liu Bei was happy that his old friend could make great achievements, but on the other hand, he lamented that both sides were always missing each other.
"Your Majesty, when you conquer the Central Plains in the future, Tian Yu will definitely be able to be used by you!"
"Then I'll lend you Mr.'s blessing!"
Liu Bei was furiously gargling his mouth at this time, which made Zhuge Liang look confused.
"Your Majesty, what are you doing?"
"Alas! If you want to have a grandson, you must take a bath and change clothes. This is the rule left by the lady!"
Zhuge Liang shook his head helplessly. Sure enough, no matter how old you are, there is a saying about intergenerational marriage.
Liu Bei happily went to pick up his grandchildren, leaving Zhuge Liang alone to think quietly.
"Cao Cao, let's see if you dare to start a war next!"
…
Half a month later, Jiangling.
Tian Yu and Chen Su did not dare to delay, so they traveled through the night and finally arrived at Jiangling.
During this period, Chen Su couldn't help feeling that the public security under Liu Bei's rule was good, and the two of them didn't encounter a single thief.
Even in the Central Plains, there is no way to avoid bandits blocking the road.
"Public and orderly, it can be seen that under Xuande's rule, the country is peaceful and the people are safe!"
Tian Yu had a smile on his face, which was enough to prove that the person he chose to follow back then was absolutely right!
Chen Su also had to be serious. Chengdu is no less wealthy than Xuchang and Yecheng!
The public security situation is in order, even better than in the Central Plains area.
In addition, there are many merchants, and merchants have never been discriminated against under Liu Bei's rule, which also makes the business environment good.
The existence of straight money has caused many merchants in the Central Plains and Jiangdong to switch to straight money.
Chen Su has a feeling that one day Zhibaiqian will replace five baht and become the common currency of the Han Dynasty.
Cao Cao and Sun Quan even used coins made by Liu Bei. Who is the orthodox Han Dynasty?
The moment the two stepped into Jiangling City, they saw a young man coming to greet them with his men.
There are two generals under the young man's command, one is wearing white armor and a silver spear, the other is wearing bird feathers on his head and a bell on his waist.
As for the scribes around him, they are not good-looking, and they never leave their gourds of wine.
"Is this person here Uncle Guorang?"
"Could it be that he is the Crown Prince of Hanzhong?"
Liu Mang bowed and saluted, giving him the full courtesy, "Second uncle and third uncle have been waiting for a long time! If uncle Guorang doesn't mind, you can call me your chief minister."
Tian Yu was filled with emotion. He never expected that Ambassador Liu's son would be so promising!
As gentle as jade, the inside is beautiful!
Chen Su was also observing Liu Mang, but he felt that he did not look like a martial artist who knew how to fight, and was not as powerful as the rumors said.
"The Crown Prince personally came to pick up the envoys like us, which can be said to be a great honor to King Wei."
"When I return to the court, I will inform King Wei of this matter."
"I hope you and I can have a pleasant negotiation."
Chen Su's words made Tian Yu frown. This boy really didn't inherit Chen Yuanlong's tact.
Xuzhou has changed its owners four times, and the ministers have been able to get along like a fish in water under Tao Qian, Liu Bei, Lu Bu, and Cao Cao, because they dealt with things smoothly.
"Who is this?"
"I am..."
"Forget it, it's not important."
Chen Su was about to introduce himself, but was directly and rudely interrupted by Liu Mang.
"Is Cao Cao's envoy worthy of me personally coming to receive him?"
"I came here today just to greet the elders."
"Uncle Guorang has an old relationship with my father and three uncles, so it is worthy of my coming."
Liu Mang's words were very helpful to Tian Yu. Even if they haven't seen each other for many years, old friends will still look the same when they meet again.
"Zilong, long time no see!"
"Congratulations, you finally met the Ming Lord, soaring into the clouds and rising into the dragon!"
Tian Yu was sincerely happy for Zhao Yun. Both of them were now generals guarding one side.
"Guorang, long time no see."
Zhao Yun has always made a distinction between public affairs and private matters. He will never get too involved with Tian Yu before the official matters are settled.
"Uncle Guorang, please!"
Liu Mang ignored Chen Su, who looked embarrassed and could only follow Tian Yu dejectedly.
"Chen Su, you'd better keep quiet for a while. Liu Mang is no better than his father."
Tian Yu reminded him softly that Liu Bei and Chen Deng had known each other for a while, and even if Chen Su had done anything offensive, he would not pursue it.
But Liu Mang is different. The masters on both sides are both young people. Who will spoil whom?
"Yes, Uncle Guorang..."
Chen Su followed Tian Yu to the main hall angrily. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei had been waiting for a long time.
Tian Yu, the elder of the two of them, would naturally not go to greet him in person.
In addition, both sides have their own masters, especially Zhang Fei, who has been complaining that Tian Yu did not follow Liu Bei.
"Tian Yu, I have met my two brothers!"
"There's no need to be polite."
"snort!"
Guan Yu could still maintain the most basic courtesy, but Zhang Fei took a swig of wine and didn't care about Tian Yu at all.
"We are also messengers after all!"
"You are so contemptuous and indifferent. Aren't you afraid that King Wei's army will invade the country?"
"The king of Wei dominates the seven states, how can you and others be able to defeat him?"
Seeing Zhang Fei's attitude, Chen Su couldn't bear it anymore and directly reprimanded Zhang Fei as a messenger.
"His grandma's! Whose little brat is this? He dares to talk to Third Grandpa like that!"
After Zhang Fei finished speaking, he was about to pick up the snake spear and pierce 365 holes in Chen Su.
"Brother Yide, please show mercy! This is Chen Yuanlong's son!"
Tian Yu was worried that Chen Su's life would be in danger, so he quickly offered words of advice.
"Who is that? Do you think Cao Cao really dares to send troops?"
Liu Mang was leisurely and contented, and sneered: "If Cao conceals his troops, the Central Plains will be in chaos!"
