The governor held out his fat belly, crossed his legs, and glanced at Liu Bei and the others. His eyes were full of contempt. After a while, he suddenly pointed his whip at Liu Bei and asked, "I don't know what Liu Bei is." What kind of birth?"
Liu Bei replied: "I am the great-great-grandson of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty after King Jing of Zhongshan. I led several brothers to revolt from Zhuojun and joined the imperial army to jointly defeat the Yellow Turban bandits. During this period, I experienced more than thirty battles. It is said that there are I don’t dare to take credit for the great achievements, but I have done the small ones, so I was awarded this place by the imperial court.”
The governor looked down on the people in front of him. When he heard that the other party was related to the royal family, he was immediately angry. He stood up straight and shouted angrily: "You are so bold that you dare to have a relationship with the royal family. You lied about your achievements. Now the imperial court has issued an edict. We need to get rid of corrupt officials like you!"
Yu Yi and others were on the verge of rising up, and Zhang Fei had already taken steps. Fortunately, Liu Bei was relatively sober at this time. He knew that making a mistake at this time would cause a lot of trouble, so he bowed and left the post house.
When Liu Bei came out, he was a burly man. Yu Yi felt a little distressed when he saw his elder brother's demeanor, and said: "The governor is a villain, why should I argue with him? It's better to set up my own business to avoid being treated like this!"
After hearing this, Zhang Fei also shouted "very good" and responded positively to Yu Yi's suggestion. As for Guan Yu, his face didn't change much, and it was hard to tell what he was thinking in his heart.
"Fourth brother, don't talk nonsense, and don't have such thoughts again. This is a serious crime of rebellion and will implicate the nine clans."
Yu Yi wanted to say something more, but Liu Bei stopped him.
Yu Yi knew that Liu Bei was also doing it for his own good, so he stopped talking.
The conflict over postal supervision had arisen. Liu Bei spent a lot of thought on how to resolve it and decided to take his brothers to find the county magistrate.
Liu Bei is kind and kind to his friends, so after taking office, the county magistrate had a good impression of him.
When the county magistrate saw Liu Bei coming to visit, he knew that it was not a trivial matter, so he invited everyone to take a seat, and Liu Bei explained the postal supervision in detail.
The county magistrate burst out laughing after hearing this. Yu Yi asked the reason, and the other party explained, "The postal supervisor has a bad character and a bad reputation. However, because of his special status, we dare not offend him. He said this and It’s not that I want to target you, I just want to ask for some bribes from you.”
Liu Bei sighed: "After I became a county captain, I devoted myself to serving the people. Some of the salary I received was also used to help people in need. Where can I have money to give him."
On the next day, the governor first went to talk to the county magistrate and forced him to lie and accuse Liu County Lieutenant of harming the people.
After Liu Bei found out, he just went to the post house to ask for an audience, trying to use words to influence the other party. However, every time he asked for an audience, he was stopped by the government officials at the door, and he could not be accommodating no matter how nice he said.
Because of the postal supervision incident, Yu Yi and others were very unhappy, and Zhang Fei even invited Yu Yi to have a drink to relieve their boredom.
"Third brother, don't worry. The eldest brother naturally has his own concerns."
Yu Yi toasted Zhang Fei and advised.
"Our eldest brother is too kind. People like Du Post should be executed immediately!"
Zhang Fei sighed.
The two were drinking when they suddenly heard someone crying outside. Following the sound, I found that it was in front of the post house, with fifty or sixty old people kneeling at the door.
Yu Yi stepped forward to ask the reason, and the elders replied: "The governor wanted to intimidate the county magistrate and harm County Lieutenant Liu. We all came to clarify the truth. In the end, we were not allowed to enter, and we were beaten severely by the disciples!"
This incident completely angered Zhang Fei. Yu Yi originally planned to stop him, but Zhang Fei had already dismounted and went straight to the post house. The disciple wanted to stop him, but how could he stop him.
Yu Yi had no choice but to follow Zhang Fei through the door and into the back hall. He saw the governor sitting on a chair in the main hall, with the county magistrate beside him, his hands tied and tied to the ground.
Seeing this scene, even a person with Yu Yi's temperament felt extremely angry.
Zhang Fei stepped forward and shouted loudly: "You are a thief who harms the people, do you still recognize me, grandpa?"
Before the governor could speak, Zhang Fei grabbed his hair and pulled him out of the post house. He walked to the horse post in front of the county and stopped. Zhang Fei tied his hands with wickers, hung him up, pulled out his whip and started The whipping, each whip was heavier than the last, seemed to bring out all the recent anger, so ten branches were broken in a row.
After Liu Bei was driven out, he felt very depressed. Suddenly he heard a lot of noise in front of the county. He asked the people to ask, and the answer was that General Zhang had kidnapped a man and beat him there.
Liu Bei was afraid that something big would happen, so he quickly called Guan Yu and went to check the situation. From a distance, he saw that the kidnapped person was none other than the postal supervisor, and standing next to Zhang Fei was Yu Yi.
Liu Bei quickly walked up to Yu Yi and asked about the whole story. Before Yu Yi could answer, Zhang Fei spoke, "If you don't kill a thief like Du You who is harming the people, why are you keeping him alive?"
The governor was beaten to the point of dying. Seeing Liu Bei's arrival, he felt as if he had encountered a straw and quickly begged: "Mr. Xuande, save my life." His tone was very sincere, which was a huge difference from before.
Liu Bei always had a benevolent heart, so Zhang Fei stopped his hand and criticized Yu Yi, "Fourth brother, you know that Yide is an impulsive and rough person. You are around, why don't you stop him."
Yu Yi sighed: "This postal supervisor is really hateful. I think he should be taught a lesson."
In this matter, Guan Yu, who had never expressed any opinions, finally expressed his position, saying: "My eldest brother worked for the imperial court through life and death, and made many great contributions to killing the Yellow Turban bandits. The imperial court only gave him a minor official as a county captain, and now he is a superintendent." Insulted in public, I feel that we have been in a thorn bush, full of dangers, and not a permanent place to stay. It is better to kill the governor to eliminate the harm to the place, and then abandon this annoying little official and return the Hometown, look for other opportunities to make contributions.”
Until now, Guan Yu had not spoken much. As soon as he said this, Yu Yi was surprised. This insight shows Guan Yu's thoughts.
After hearing this, Liu Bei felt that it made sense, but he was still hesitant.
"Brother, now the third brother has whipped the postal supervisor, which is against the law. I'm afraid you, the county lieutenant, won't be able to do it again, so just take the second brother's advice."
Yuyi stepped forward to further analyze the situation.
Liu Bei finally thought clearly. He stepped forward and hung the seal and ribbon on the governor's neck, and scolded: "You are hurting the people like this. I should have killed you. Now I will spare your life. I hope you can take care of yourself. In addition, I will return the seal and ribbon to you." You, just say goodbye." After saying that, Liu Bei untied the wicker binding the governor and walked away with his brothers.
Before leaving, Yu Yi turned around and caught a glimpse of the resentment in Du You's eyes. He concluded that he would definitely take revenge afterwards. Due to Liu Bei's presence, he could not kill him, so he used his inner strength in his right hand and shot a flying knife towards his right thigh.
After Du You was stabbed, he knelt down on the spot. At this time, Liu Bei and others had already walked away. Yu Yi smiled. From now on, Du You would definitely become disabled.
