Chapter 245 Liu Boyu's messenger persuades Liu Bei
Zhao Yun's words made Liu Bei feel quite touched, and a little doubt arose in his heart.
The envoy from Jingzhou to Youzhou offered war strategies to the Grand Sima...
Jingzhou and Youzhou are one in the south and one in the north, more than a thousand miles apart?
Liu Jingsheng's hand was really stretched long enough from Jingzhou.
Liu Bei asked Zhao Yun tentatively: "Do you dare to ask Zilong who is the envoy sent by Liu Jingsheng from Jingzhou?"
Zhao Yun shook his head, showing a look of confusion.
"I don't know either... However, it is said that the visitor is not a well-known person, but an ordinary messenger. I also heard that the visitor did not follow the order of Liu Jingsheng, but respected his son Liu Boyu's order to come to our north to offer advice."
"Is it him?" Liu Bei was shocked when he heard this, and his face looked shocked.
Seeing that Liu Bei's face changed, as if he had a mystery, Zhao Yun said strangely: "Why is Xuande like this? Could it be that you met Liu Boyu?"
Liu Bei's face showed a look of surprise and said, "This Liu Boyu is really hard to understand. If it were really the person he sent, maybe he should really listen to what he has to do."
After Zhao Yun was enforced by Liu Yan, he supervised Liu Bei as a marquis in the military and was very familiar with his character.
He knew that Liu Bei was a generous and calm person, and he acted very well on weekdays. If he hadn't encountered a big event, he would never have been able to show his timidity easily.
But why did he do this after hearing Liu Boyu's name?
However, Zhao Yun bowed and asked Liu Bei, "Why does Xuande admire this Liu Boyu so much? Although this person is famous, he is still too young after all, and may not be able to become a climate."
Liu Bei stretched out his hand to Zhao Yun, asked him to sit down on the side of the commander's tent, and said with a wry smile: "Zilong doesn't know that the reason why you and I can sit in this commander's tent today is all Liu Boyu's recommendation to the Grand Sima."
"Ah?" Zhao Yun was shocked when he heard this.
He was recommended by Changshan County as a local leader and was well-known, but he never thought that he would be valued by the famous Grand Marshal Liu Yu and recruited him to Youzhou with great courtesy.
From the time of his enthronement, Zhao Yun has always thought that he could have this because Liu Yu knew people and was good at responsibilities and cherished talents.
But he really didn't expect that there would be such a hidden truth behind this.
Liu Boyu...recommend me?
Liu Bei did not hide it, and even told Zhao Yun about the news that he had learned from Liu Yu when he was poached by Gongsun Zan.
After saying that, Liu Bei sighed and said, "Although Bei used to dress up the Yellow Turban, he was not so famous that he could be valued by people far away in Jingchu. However, Liu Boyu highly praised me, and his actions were quite unexpected... Moreover, his request for Grand Marshal Zheng to proclaim Zhao Jun as a marquis during the military supervision made Liu a little yearning for him."
Zhao Yun said in surprise: "How did Xuande say this?"
Liu Bei said seriously: "During these days when Bei and Zhao Jun have been together, I deeply feel that Zhao Jun is a trustworthy person, with a righteous person, a very upright person, and is unbiased in his actions. He is the best candidate for the marquis in his actions."
Zhao Yun hurriedly bowed and said, "Xuande praised too much."
Liu Bei smiled and said, "Why do you and I have to be too humble after getting along for a long time? What Bei said is all the heartfelt words, and there is no intention of deliberately flattering them, it is just..."
Speaking of this, Liu Bei sighed and said, "It was only after Bei met Zhao Jun that he knew that Zhao Jun was a human being. However, Liu Boyu was far away in Jingzhou, how could he know Zilong's ability? Zilong had met Liu Boyu in the past?"
Zhao Yun smiled bitterly and said, "I am a native of Changshan County, how can I get to know Liu's family in Shanyang?"
Liu Bei said: "Because of this, how could Bei be surprised by Liu Boyu?"
Zhao Yun nodded suddenly and said, "No wonder Xuande was so surprised when he heard that Liu Boyu sent someone here. It turns out that the truth is here."
Liu Bei smiled and said, "To be honest, since he can understand you and me so much, he may also understand Ji and You, and if he sends an envoy here this time, he may have some lofty views... It would be a blessing if he can really open the deadlock for you and me."
Zhao Yun sighed: "I hope so."
...
A few days later, a messenger from Jingzhou rushed from Yuyang County to Liu Bei's military camp.
But as Zhao Yun said, the messenger from the south this time was really not a famous person, but a little person who passed the message.
All the news he brought now is the real information that Liu Qi taught him.
Liu Yu was not on the front line to supervise the army. Even if the envoys from Jingzhou had told him the war strategy, Liu Yu was not convenient for him to make his own decisions, so he asked the envoy to go to Liu Bei's military camp and have a detailed discussion with Liu Bei in person.
After the Jingzhou envoy met Liu Bei, he immediately conveyed Liu Qi's opinion on the Battle of Hebei to him.
...
"First expel Gongsun Bogui, then sit in the north and observe success or failure?"
Liu Bei looked at the Jingzhou envoy below in confusion, his face full of deep doubts: "What does this mean?"
The messenger took a deep breath: "Nanyang Liufu Jun Rang told the Grand Sima and the general that the Gongsun clan in western Liaoning was a great clan in Youzhou and had military achievements, and was in opposition to the Grand Sima. If the Gongsun clan was in Youzhou, sooner or later, he would use his sword to continue to stay in Youbeiping. This is a great disaster. We should take advantage of the current war and take advantage of Yuan Shao to drive Gongsun Zan out of Youzhou."
"Turn out of Youzhou?" Liu Bei's expression was a little stiff: "Then isn't my brother Bo Gui missing the place where he stands?"
The envoy said, "The Lord of Liu's family is here to tell the general that there is no need to be too soft-hearted. With the prosperous army under Gongsun Bogui, all states can go to the world. If you can't stay in Youzhou, can't stay in Gongsun Bogui in the land of Qing and Xu?"
Below, a strong man standing beside him suddenly spoke: "Your Excellency's words, Guan is very confused. Since Mr. Liu knows that Gongsun Bogui and the Grand Sima are incompatible, why did he deliberately expel him from Youzhou? Isn't this a problem to raise a tiger?"
The messenger turned his head and looked at the person who was talking, and his heart was slightly shocked.
I saw the speaker, tall and majestic, and his height was similar to Dian Wei.
Although he looked not as burly as Dian Wei, he was better than that of his upright body, and from his shoulders to his waist, he showed an inverted triangle state.
And that person's appearance was in line with people's perception of handsome men in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.
A young young man like Liu Qi who has a white face and a gentle appearance cannot be regarded as a mainstream handsome figure.
In this era, a true handsome man must have a beautiful beard, just like three long beards like Zhang Yun. A man with a good beard is the most authentic handsome man.
So, if men in this era want to be more handsome, they first have to compare beards.
Compared to Zhang Yun, who has a beautiful beard, Guan Yu in front of him is even more handsome.
His beard is longer than Zhang Yun and his decoration is even more neat than Guan Yu.
This was the first time that the envoy of Jingzhou had lived for decades and saw such a handsome and elegant beard.
He is really a god.
After he was slightly out of sight, he came back to his senses.
