Liu Bei paced back and forth on the earth slope, looking at the distance from time to time, his eyebrows were slightly frowning, his eyes were suddenly excited, worried, and unstable. Guan Yu, who was nine feet tall, stood not far behind him, his slender phoenix eyes narrowed, his black and thick eyebrows were shaped like a lying silkworm, and his black and bright beard hung on his chest. Although he was just over thirties, he already had a very beautiful beard.

There were whipping and screams coming from the hillside, mixed with Zhang Fei's angrily shout.

"You are a bastard to death, but you dare to plunder the people. Who can give you the courage?"

Liu Bei hesitated for a moment, turned to Guan Yu and said, "Chang Yun, Zilong is not here. Come and command these cavalry. Yide does not care about the soldiers and is prejudiced against these barbarians. I am afraid he can't handle it."

Guan Yu responded lightly.

Liu Bei sighed, his eyes becoming more dim. "Yunchang, do you think Zilong will be gone forever?"

"How could it be?" Guan Yu looked a little careless. "Xuande, you have been thinking too much recently."

Liu Bei smiled at the loss. "Yes, I'm worried about getting it and losing it. I really can't let it go. Zilong said he would go and go back, but now he has been there for more than half a year and there is no news at all. I'm worried... he is disappointed with me and will never come back."

"No, it should be because the war is tense and I can't get rid of it." Guan Yu said halfway, and suddenly closed his mouth. Liu Bei did not ask again. He was as entangled as Guan Yu. Zhao Yun returned to Youzhou because Gongsun Zan stationed troops in Panhe and wanted to seize Jizhou. The war was about to begin. Tian Kai asked him to station on the plain at that time, hoping that he could threaten Yuan Shao's right wing. He accepted Yuan Shao's appointment at this time and went south to compete with Sun Ce for Yuzhou, which was like turning against him in the face of the battle, which was very unfavorable to Gongsun Zan.

If Gongsun Zan was defeated by this, how will the world see me? Will Zilong see me like this?

Liu Bei regretted it a little, and this decision was a bit hasty, but the temptation of the Yuzhou governor was too great that he could not resist. He knew that Yuan Shao might be using him to deal with Gongsun Zan, but if that were not the case, where would he have the opportunity to enter Yuan Shao's vision? Just based on the recommendation of his teacher Lu Zhi, it would be good that Yuan Shao could give him a county. It was impossible for him to be a state at all, and it was his own state.

In addition, there is another important reason. Although Gongsun Zan defeated Qingxu Huangteng, controlled half of Jizhou, and shocked Hebei, he was just a momentary glory and was no match for Yuan Shao. Not to mention anything else, even his teacher Lu Zhi accepted Yuan Shao's invitation, which shows that the hearts of the world are in Yuan Shao. This is the powerful appeal of the three kings of the four generations. The accumulation of hundreds of years is definitely not something Gongsun Zan can resist.

Just look at the civil and military officials under Gongsun Zan. There is no serious scholar except Guan Jing. He either tells fortunes or sells fortunes. What is Tian Kai? He was originally just a small official, but his literary talent was not successful. If the martial arts were not done, the Qingxu Yellow Turban invaded Qingzhou, he could do nothing and could only close the city to defend himself. Kong Rong, the prime minister of Beihai, was trapped and would rather send people to the plains to ask for help than Tian Kai who was close to him.

Why didn't Gongsun Zan let me be the governor of Qingzhou? Instead, it was him? Is my ability not as good as him, or was the relationship between us not as close as him? Every time I think of this, Liu Bei was always worried. In Gongsun Zan's eyes, it seemed insignificant to go out of the same school, and even his teacher Lu Zhi was not important. He actually sat down and watched him be invited by Yuan Shao to be a military advisor.

Since you don’t care, why should I care? It was the teacher’s arrangement, not my own decision.

Can Zhao Yun understand me? Can people in the world understand me?

Liu Bei sighed again. He turned around and saw the figure on the official road in the distance. He immediately turned around and winked Guan Yu. Guan Yu squinted his eyes and walked quickly down the mountain. Zhang Fei was tired of beating people and was sitting aside to rest. The Wuhuan soldier who was beaten by him was already dying. The soldiers standing next to him dared not speak out. When Guan Yu came, he immediately cast a begging gaze.

"Yide, someone is coming on the official road. I'll go and see, pay attention to the surroundings."

"Okay." Zhang Fei stood up and glared at the soldiers. "What are you looking at? Why don't you come with me?"

"Let them follow me." Guan Yu turned over the horse. When the soldiers heard this, they rushed to get on the horse and surrounded Guan Yu. Zhang Fei salied and pointed at them with a horse whip, trying to curse people. When the words came to his mouth, they changed the words. "Follow my brother and wait carefully. If you make a mistake again, I will not peel you."

Guan Yu kicked the war horse lightly, and led a dozen knights out of the mountain pass, standing in the middle of the road. At this time, the carriage and horses approached. It turned out that it was Jian Yong. Guan Yu sent a safety signal to Liu Bei on the hillside, and he left without waiting for Jian Yong.

Jian Yong shook his head and sighed secretly. He came to the hillside, got out of the car, walked up the hillside step by step, and came to Liu Bei.

"Empress, I'm back."

"Thank you for your hard work." Seeing that Jian Yong was empty behind him and his face was not good, Liu Bei knew that he had a vain trip this time. However, he was used to it, and it was not too disappointed. He glanced at him and saw the knife held in the hand of the guard behind Jian Yong. He felt familiar. He took the knife, looked at it for a moment, and recognized it all at once. "Is this... Cao Mengde's Qi Yao?"

"Give me some eyesight."

"Haha, Xiyuan Badao, I have seen it, but it was the first time I touched Xianhe, where did this come from?"

Jian Yong pulled Liu Bei aside. Liu Bei was a little confused. Jian Yong had been with him for a long time and knew that he had nothing to hide from Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. This behavior was too abnormal. But he also knew that although Jian Yong was arrogant and debauchery, he could still tell the difference, so he didn't say anything. Seeing this, Guan Yu snorted and turned his head over. Zhang Fei smacked his lips, and felt a little uncomfortable.

The two walked aside, and Jian Yong whispered: "General, I met Sun Ce."

Liu Bei was surprised. "How did you meet him?"

Jian Yong said what happened, and Liu Bei's expression changed a few times. His big ears couldn't help but twitched twice, staring at Jian Yong, unable to say a word. How could Sun Ce know so much about me? Even Zhao Yun, who had been away for several months, know?

"Xianhe, what does Sun Ce mean?"

"Sun Ce was unwilling to give up Yuzhou, and he did not dare to conflict directly with Yuan Shao, so he wanted to lure the general to occupy Yanzhou and isolate Yuan Shao. Secondly, he wanted to alienate the general and Yun Chang."

"And!" Liu Bei looked at him disdainfully. "If I and Yun Changen'en are brothers, how could he be separated from each other?"

Jian Yong raised his eyelids and said, "Then... this knife is given to Yun Chang?"
