Chapter Twelve Love is not long, wisdom will be hurt
After the alliance against Dong broke up, the three Liu Bei brothers sadly returned to Pingyuan County.
Liu Bei, who was extremely disappointed with most of the princes, began to recruit troops, accumulate supplies, and began to quietly wait for the changes in the situation after he became the Prime Minister of Pingyuan.
If we want to say that the princes who are most popular recently, it has to be Gongsun Zan.
Destroy the Yellow Turbans in Xuzhou, suppress the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou,
Joining forces with Yuan Shao to seize Jizhou can be said to be in the limelight for a time.
Liu Bei would be lying if he said he was not envious of his good classmate Gongsun Zan's recent power...
today,
Liu Bei is reviewing government affairs,
Zhang Fei outside suddenly took the information from the spies.
With a roar, he broke into the county government office where Liu Bei worked.
"Brother! Big brother! Gongsun Zan is going to raise an army to attack Yuan Shao!"
Liu Bei had a rare look of surprise on his face and stood up to take the information handed over by Zhang Fei.
While reading, Liu Bei read out the information,
"Yuan Shao invited Gongsun Zan to attack Han Fu in Jizhou on the condition that he carve up Jizhou.
However, after Yuan Shao took control of Jizhou, he refused Gongsun Zan's request to divide Jizhou equally, and his subordinates pretended to be Dong Zhuo's generals and attacked and killed Gongsun Zan's younger brother Gongsun Yue!"
Hearing this, Zhang Fei rubbed his teeth and asked, "Hiss! Gongsun Yue is dead?" He had never read the information before, but now that he heard Liu Bei read it out, he realized the seriousness of the matter.
Liu Bei's eyes were filled with shock. He raised his head and looked at Zhang Fei, and replied affirmatively: "Gongsun Yue... is dead!"
The implication is that Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao are already mortal enemies.
The three brothers Liu Bei and Gongsun Yue had dealt with each other several times before.
Although Gongsun Yue relied on the fact that he was Gongsun Zan's disciple, his behavior had always been a bit dandy and arrogant.
But in general,
Gongsun Yue was quite frank and upright.
As long as he affirms you, he will treat you as a true friend.
Liu Bei is the favorite among people who have no scheming intentions, because with his eloquence and eloquence, such upright people often become Liu Bei's supporters.
"I never expected that Gongsun Bogui would fall out with Yuan Shao so quickly..."
Zhang Fei shouted: "I have long disliked Yuan Shao, he is an insidious and shameless villain!
In the past, he withheld his brother's rewards, food and salary, but this time he used Gongsun Zan as a gun and killed his younger brother.
Let me tell you, Gongsun Zan should have pushed Yuan Shao's child to the ground and rubbed him hard!"
"Third brother, pay attention to your verbal words!" Liu Bei rolled his eyes at Zhang Fei helplessly.
This third brother is obviously the one who has read the most among the three of them, but he is the one who least looks like he has read...
After Liu Bei thought for a moment,
He always couldn't let go of his old classmate Gongsun Zan, and thought to himself:
“I always feel uneasy.
Gongsun Bogui is too upright, and he is surrounded by many reckless people. How can he be Yuan Shao's opponent?
Bo Gui has helped me a lot in the past, and I should help him more no matter what!"
Thinking of this, Liu Bei said to Zhang Fei: "Go and call your second brother. Let's discuss sending troops to help Gongsun Bogui."
"Brother, we have finally accumulated some wealth, and now you have to..."
"Third brother, you don't know how much Gongsun Zan has helped us in the past. Now that he is in trouble, we should do our best to help him!"
Zhang Fei heard this and asked in disbelief:
"How come I heard that Gongsun Zan was invincible in Jizhou and many noble families in Jizhou surrendered?
Will Gongsun Zan be in trouble?
Brother, when will you be able to pinch me?"
Liu Bei raised his hand as if to strike, but Zhang Fei jumped back a step, "Hey... don't be angry, I'm going to find my second brother now."
Seeing Zhang Fei walking away with a playful smile, Liu Bei shook his head helplessly, smiled bitterly and said to himself:
"Yun Changyide is one of the most powerful men in the world, but now he has followed me to this point. I feel ashamed... I feel ashamed of my brothers..."
...
Since Xi Zhong was temporarily appointed as a manager by Lu Yan,
Most of the work under Lu Yan was assigned to Xi Zhong...
This is not Lu Yan’s heart to squeeze the newcomers.
But this guy, Xi Zhong Xi Zhicai, is rushing to do it!
Mao Jie, a noble gentleman,
After seeing newcomer Xi Zhicai’s dedicated work attitude,
Looking at Lu Yan, who often excuses himself to go to the toilet at work, and then runs out to catch fish out of nowhere, his eyes are filled with an indescribable smell.
"Probably... it's like looking at a pile of mud!" Lu Yan laughed at himself, but his actions remained the same without any change.
Xi Zhicai's body has a phenomenon of depletion of energy.
Lu Yan had made excuses to have contact with Xi Zhicai's body several times, but he failed to discover the root cause of Xi Zhicai's exhaustion of vitality.
"It's a bit like a fish pond. There is a small hole missing somewhere, causing the water and fish in the fish pond to drain away over the years..."
Lu Yan thought a lot, but in the end he couldn't find a solution to Xi Zhicai's physical problem.
"I am not a god after all...
But for a top talent like Xi Zhicai,
How could I bear to watch him die in front of my eyes... With him here, I would have to work less!"
"Ahem!" Lu Yan was thinking about playing with Zhicai's body.
However, Xi Zhicai suddenly heard a violent cough.
Lu Yan quickly came to Xi Zhicai and asked with concern: "Zhicai, are you okay?"
Xi Zhicai coughed a few more times before he recovered.
He smiled at Lu Yan and said, "Thank you Captain Lu for your concern. This is an old habit of Mr. Xi's. It won't be a problem."
"That's it for today. You go back and rest first."
"This... Mr. Xi still has many government affairs that have not been dealt with. If there is any delay, I may let Duke Cao rule the people..."
"It doesn't matter if you're a day or a half late. You've really been too tired recently.
Your health is the most important thing, so be obedient and go back to rest first. Xiaoxian is here, so it’s okay.”
After hearing Lu Yan's words, Mao Jie on the side couldn't help but rolled his eyes and then speeded up the marking process in his hands...
Although Lu Yan was usually a bit sneaky, he never failed to handle many important matters.
Mao Jie actually knew,
Lu Yan didn't really care, he just didn't want to deal with such trivial matters.
Physical work, troublesome, and tiring.
But isn’t it a bit unkind of you to always let others do these physical tasks?
After some hard talking, Xi Zhicai was persuaded to go back.
Lu Yan looked at Xi Zhicai's thin back and couldn't help but sigh softly.
Mao Jie heard Lu Yan's sigh, and he held back his words and asked:
"I'm talking about Changsheng. Since you know that Zhicai has Shen Ke, why did you recruit him into Cao Ying and arrange so many jobs for him?"
Lu Yan turned around and sighed: "Zhicai has a beautiful mind and a strategy.
His greatest ideal is to realize his ambitions during his lifetime..."
"So you were soft-hearted and handed over most of the political affairs in your hands to him?" Mao Jie's eyes flashed with contempt.
"I really didn't take the initiative!" Lu Yan suddenly became inexplicable... After hesitating for a while, he explained: "Zhicai wants to prove his ability as soon as possible, and his time does not allow him to
Just wait for the opportunity."
Mao Jie's hand suddenly stopped.
Xi Zhicai's physical condition can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye.
After a long time, Mao Jie suddenly shook his head and sighed:
"It can take as long as three to five years, or as little as two or three years. The person with great ambition..."
Lu Yan listened to Mao Jie's words,
Suddenly, the scene of meeting the down-and-out scribe Xi Zhicai outside the tavern suddenly came to mind again.
For some reason, Lu Yan suddenly felt a little sour in his heart, and then he became panicked.
"Helpless, helpless, unwilling!" This was the emotion I read in his body and eyes when I first met Xi Zhicai.
“Full of talent and full of ambition!
Such talents,
God is reluctant to give him more time to show off his skills?"
Lu Yan unconsciously put his hand into his arms and touched the diary of destiny and destiny.
"Perhaps the world is unkind and regards all things as stupid dogs.
But I have a diary of destiny!
Now I want to try it out, is the system awesome, or is your God more arrogant?"
