Xie Zhen had obviously not recovered from the death of his father, King Shu, and Yan Lin, and his face was a little pale. When he saw Liu Zheng, he quickly stood up and gave a big salute.
Liu Zheng was startled, and quickly held his arm, smiling bitterly and saying: "Your Highness, you must not do this. Zheng is just a magistrate, so you must not do this!"
joke.
No matter how you say it, no matter how downcast Xie Zhen is now, he is still the crown prince and the future King of Shu.
He is just a mere magistrate, and he is far inferior at this level.
Xie Zhen also smiled bitterly: "Liu Zhizhou, the situation in Shuzhou is treacherous now. The second and third brothers each have military power in their hands, but I, Xie Zhen, can only rely on you. Xie Zhen can still tell the difference between the more important and the less important.
....."
He even gritted his teeth, looked at Liu Zheng solemnly and said: "Liu Zhizhou, if Xie Zhen is incompetent, Sichuan and Shu will be governed by Liu Zhizhou! Xie Zhen only wants the people of Sichuan and Shu to live and work in peace and contentment and live a worry-free life!"
Liu Zheng was stunned by these words.
He looked carefully at Xie Zhen's expression, and saw that there was no pretense at all, and he treated it as speaking from the bottom of his heart.
Liu Zheng held Xie Zhen's arm and laughed loudly: "Your Highness, you must not do it. The Liangzhou Army will not stay when the Southern Barbarians are expelled this time! If Your Highness does not believe in Liu Zheng, it would be worse than the two of us who swore sworn brothers of the opposite sex today. I don't know.
Can Liu Zheng climb high?"
As soon as these words came out, Xie Zhen was stunned.
If in normal times, if this mere Liu Zhizhou wanted to become brothers with him, he would definitely be laughed to death and scolded for Gao Pan. But today's situation is different. It is Xie Zhen Gao Pan.
"This, this, this..."
Xie Zhen was surprised and happy.
Liu Zheng laughed loudly. He was not trying to play any tricks, but Xie Zhen's outlook on things was really to his liking. By doing this, Xie Zhen felt completely at ease with him.
"Sworn sworn vows?"
Jiang Xuan and others were also very surprised when they heard this.
Although his son's official rank is not high, he is not ordinary arrogant. Prince Xie Fang, third prince Xie Ling, these people have tried to win over Liu Zheng, but they were all rejected by him. Jiang Xuan guessed
Now, even if the prince Xie Ling wanted to sworn sworn sworn brother with his own son, Liu Zheng would probably look down on him.
Unexpectedly.
This Xie Zhen is so lucky.
then.
Next, is this ancient sworn ceremony, witnessed by one hundred thousand Liangzhou troops.
Liu Zheng and Xie Zhen knelt in a row on the deck of the Yinzhou ship, holding incense burners with yellow paper. They knelt down in the distance to the second master Guan, and then drank the blood. Because Xie Zhen was three years older than Liu Zheng, he called Liu Zheng his younger brother.
.
Liu Zheng called him brother.
After giving up the sworn vows, Xie Zhen finally became energetic. This made Liu Zheng incredulous. Don't look at this sworn vows. In later generations, most of the sworn vows were pretentious and hypocritical. But in ancient times, it was so solemn, and under the witness of so many people, it gave people a feeling
It's a different feeling. It seems that all of a sudden, the distance between the two people has become much closer.
What an incredible and wonderful reaction...
The two looked at each other, smiled, and returned to the boat.
Xie Zhen looked worried at this time and said: "Brother Zheng, we can no longer stay in Wuzhou. The people of Jiangzhou are being slaughtered every day. I am uneasy. We should expel the Nanman as soon as possible and seize our lost land. We will suffer in Sichuan and Shu."
People!"
Who knows.
Liu Zheng smiled slightly: "My brother doesn't see it that way."
"oh?"
Now not only Xie Zhen, but also others looked puzzled.
