"How could Yuan Chang come up with such an evil idea? Could it be that he wants to frame me, Lao Zhang?!"
Zhang Fei's eyes widened, but he came closer to Zhang Xi and asked in a low voice.
Are people doing things like setting fires? !
Zhang Fei is a bit straightforward and doesn't like to use his brain, but it doesn't mean that he can't see the situation clearly.
My eldest brother made it clear that he wanted to treat the virtuous corporal. Although his second brother was not satisfied, he still closed his eyes and meditated without saying a word... When he came to me, this unlucky Yuan Chang asked him to set a fire? !
If he really set this fire, wouldn't he have to be scolded by his elder brother? !
Aren’t you looking for scolding yourself?
Zhang Fei looks like a rough guy, but he is not stupid, nor is he brainless.
Zhang Xi just smiled, as if he had completed a small prank. He was satisfied and stopped talking.
Anyone who knows Zhang Fei a little would never think that Zhang Fei would really set this fire... Only people with a weak brain would do such a thing.
As for Zhang Fei...he also thought about it.
Let's just set the fire. You really can't let it go... Otherwise, if you ruin your elder brother's good deeds, you will inevitably be punished by your elder brother.
However, there are no workarounds. It's not a problem to keep the elder brother waiting like this.
You can't really start a fire, but you can always scare someone and yell a few times, right? !
So, Zhang Fei deliberately looked anxious and dissatisfied, and walked back and forth several times. Feeling that he was in a good mood, he suddenly said loudly, "How arrogant this gentleman is! When I saw my brother standing at the door, he was lying on the ground , I guess he can’t sleep! Wait until I go to the back of the house to light a fire and see if he can’t get up!”
Liu Bei was shocked when he said this and quickly signaled to Guan Yu.
But he didn't expect that Guan Yu was not satisfied at this moment. He squinted his eyes and pretended to be asleep, and didn't see Liu Bei's wink at all.
Liu Bei had no choice but to look at Zhang Xi aside, asking Zhang Xi to stop him.
Zhang Xi is not Guan Yu, and he can pretend not to notice the look of the big boss above him. He has no choice but to get up and grab Zhang Fei... but unexpectedly finds that Zhang Fei seems to be able to grab him easily. .
Zhang Xi immediately understood that these three generals were just shouting to scare Zhuge Liang.
But the problem is...
"Third General, stop shouting!" Zhang Xi grabbed Zhang Fei's arm, then leaned into Zhang Fei's ear and said, "If you yell twice and Kong Ming comes out, isn't it true that he is pretending to sleep... ...If he was just scared out by the three generals, how could he be worthy of the Lord’s visit?!”
"If you don't try, how will you know if you are a cowardless person?!" Zhang Fei also responded to Zhang Xi in a low voice.
When Zhang Xi heard this, he stopped stopping.
"If the three generals want to embarrass themselves, the creek won't stop them... Even if the three generals really go to the backyard to set fire, Kong Ming won't come out, so just wait and see!"
After saying this in Zhang Fei's ear, Zhang Xi didn't care and just let go.
Zhang Fei's embarrassing one.
Keep scolding him, it probably won't make anyone angry, but it will make him look like he has no self-restraint.
Zhang Fei didn't dare to set fire to it.
He could only groan helplessly and ran to stand next to Zhang Xi.
"Hey, Yuan Chang, please tell me exactly how long Mr. Wolong plans to keep my elder brother waiting?!" Zhang Fei came to Zhang Xi and started whispering.
As for Zhang Xi, he first looked at Liu Bei who was still standing at the door, and then secretly said to Zhang Fei, "I don't know about this... My lord wants to take the opportunity to show his desire for talents, and Kong Ming also needs to see it." When the master's kindness in treating talents will end, it will depend on which one of them can't hold on in the end."
"Can't hold it?!" Zhang Fei didn't understand and asked, "It's my eldest brother who suffers. My eldest brother is standing and that guy is lying down. How can there be a time when he can't hold it?!"
Zhang Xi rolled his eyes at Zhang Fei and said, "Why are the three generals like this today... Although the lord is thirsty for talents, the lord is still the king. Even if Kong Ming applies for the army, he is still a minister. The king cannot seek talents. , I sigh in sorrow all night long; if I don’t meet my master, I will be like a pearl cast in the dark... Who can’t hold on first, why bother asking?!”
Zhang Fei suddenly realized that this was a drama, and his eldest brother would definitely win in the end.
It's right to think about it. If my eldest brother can't wait any longer, the worst he can do is not hire this Mr. Wolong. With Yuan Zhi's military advisor and Yuan Chang assisting him, it may not be much worse.
But that Mr. Wolong... Haha, he lives near Xiangyang but he doesn't even need Liu Biao. Not to mention whether he has the ability or not, he just said that if he misses his eldest brother, he may have to work in Wollongong for the rest of his life.
And in the final analysis, Zhang Xi is right. No matter how poor Liu Bei is, he will still be a king in the future. No matter how powerful Zhuge Liang is, he will still be a minister in the future.
Unless Zhuge Liang doesn't want to come out to assist Liu Bei, otherwise, Zhuge Liang will definitely be the one to give in in the end.
Zhuge Liang was so smart, how could he let Liu Bei really wait until he lost patience before showing up.
Sure enough, just about the time Zhang Xi and Zhang Fei finished whispering and burning incense, they heard the famous poem coming from the thatched cottage.
"Who wakes up first from the big dream? I know it all my life. I sleep enough in the spring in the thatched cottage, and the sun gets late outside the window."
When Liu Bei heard this, he quickly straightened his clothes.
When Guan Yu heard this, he opened his eyes.
Zhang Fei was very happy when he heard this... This gentleman is quite good at pretending.
When Zhang Xi heard it... the co-author really had this nondescript poem... Shouldn't reading poetry in the Han Dynasty be the imagination of Luo Guanzhong, a sour scholar in the Ming Dynasty? !
No matter what, what happened next was just like what was written in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Zhuge Liang invited Liu Bei into the house, and the two discussed future plans.
The novel mainly describes this scene, and the TV series replays this scene. As for the state of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei outside the door during this period, it is not mentioned at all.
But Zhang Xi knows now, because he is also waiting outside the door.
This Zhuge Liang had clearly finished talking about Longzhong when he first came here. How could he still be chatting with Liu Bei for so long? !
It's been almost an hour.
During this hour, Zhang Xi, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei were sitting under the eaves of the corridor. No one even greeted them. They could only chat and guess what they said in the back room.
Especially Zhang Fei, because he was familiar with Zhang Xi, so he was close to forcing a confession.
"Yuan Chang, you are familiar with Mr. Wolong and have accompanied your elder brother here several times. Tell me, what were they talking about inside?!" Zhang Fei asked Zhang Xi anxiously.
Zhang Xi also looked helpless and said, "How can I know... Third General, this may be a very important matter, we just have to wait patiently."
Zhang Fei looked helpless, stood up and walked around twice, but finally did not dare to eavesdrop, so he returned to the eaves and continued to sit.
After probably waiting for a while, Guan Yu couldn't help it anymore and started to ask Zhang Xi, "Yuan Chang, you and my elder brother have been here several times. Every time the elder brother talks to Kong Ming, does it always take so long?" ?!”
Zhang Xi respected the second master very much. He bowed his hands first and then said, "My lord met Mr. Kong Ming once when he first came here. Brother Yuanzhi accompanied him at that time. The three of them chatted for about two hours... This is the second time!”
Zhang Xi said, I don’t know much.
Guan Yu nodded, indicating that he understood, and then continued to close his eyes and rest.
The fact that I was able to chat with him for two hours the first time I came here shows that the eldest brother and Mr. Wolong are very chatty, or that there are many important things to discuss.
No matter which possibility it is, it means that the eldest brother is interested in this person... In this case, then just wait, Guan Yu still has this patience.
After waiting for about another stick of incense, people in the back room were still laughing and talking, with no sign of stopping.
Under the eaves of the corridor, Zhang Fei had already taken Zhang Xi and started chatting.
"Hey, Yuan Chang, do you think this Mr. Wolong... is he really very capable?!"
"Kong Ming's talent is a hundred times better than the river..."
"No, this is too false... I know you literati like to praise each other, but you have to leave this matter to me, Mr. Zhang. If this Mr. Wolong has no ability and can only brag, Do you believe that I, Lao Zhang, really dare to go to the backyard and light a fire?!"
".....Do not believe!"
"Hey, I, Lao Zhang, can't stand it the most... I really went!"
"Um, um, go quickly... Do you want to give you a flint?!"
"I......"
This bickering was so sterile that Guan Yu could no longer listen to it.
"Third brother, please don't talk nonsense!" Guan Yu opened his eyes slightly, but said to Zhang Xi, "I am also curious about this matter. Please tell me, Chief Yuan, so that I can feel at ease."
Come on, the second master has spoken. Zhang Xi doesn't dare to deal with Guan Yu like he dealt with Zhang Fei... The future God of Wealth cannot afford to offend him.
"Mr. Kong Ming's talent is only superior to that of Brother Yuan Zhi, and Sheng Xi is so talented!" Zhang Xi gave a clear answer.
Guan Yu did frown slightly, obviously not believing it, and said, "You and I both know Mr. Yuan Zhi's talent... This Kong Ming is better than Mr. Yuan Zhi, but I don't believe it!"
Zhang Xi thought for a while and felt that what he said was a bit general, so he added, "It is indeed biased to compare Yuan Zhi to brother Yuan Zhi... It should be said that Mr. Kong Ming's political ability is not as good as that of the former Han Dynasty Xiao He "His strategy is not inferior to that of the former Han Dynasty Zhang Liang, his military skills are only half as good as those of the former Han Dynasty's Han Xin, his literary skills, military skills are all excellent, and no one in the world can compare with him!"
"Isn't Yuan Chang's statement going too far?! How can this person be compared to the pillars of the Han Dynasty?!"
There was no need for Zhang Fei to refute, Guan Yu was the first to express his disbelief... This is even more outrageous than the one just now. One person can rival the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty? !
If he has this ability, how can he still be a farmer in this thatched cottage? !
But Zhang Xi was not happy about this... God knows which line this Mr. Zhuge is taking.
If it were true, Zhang Xi admitted that he was exaggerating and that the fan filter was a bit strong.
But what if we take the romance line? !
Zhuge Liang in the novel can control the wind and rain. The southeast wind in Chibi was really borrowed from the sky, and it can also pray for longevity. If Wei Yan hadn't interfered with it, he would have succeeded.
Which of the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty could do these? !
In this way, Zhang Xi still saved face for the Soldier Immortal, not saying that Zhuge Liang's military skills were better than his.
"The time will come, why don't you two generals wait and see?!"
Well, when someone is sent to guard Huarong Road, see if I can help you intercede!
