Liu Bei and Guan Yu were naturally happy to see Zhang Fei and his soldiers living in harmony.
Regarding Zhang Fei's approach, many people in the army rushed to imitate it, ensuring that the soldiers could receive their military pay in full.
Liu Bei even praised Zhang Fei in public, "My second brother is invincible in the world! My third brother is both rough and fine!"
Everyone congratulated Zhang Fei for his meritorious service, while Zhang Fei looked at Liu Mang, who was still sleepy-eyed and seemed not to care about anything.
"Lord!"
Mi Fang came over anxiously and said with cupped hands: "Xuchang's spies have sent news that Cao Cao has added Jiuxi and wants to become a Duke!"
What!
When Liu Bei heard this, he was furious and said, "With such arrogance, Cao Cao is bullying Your Majesty!"
"I wish I could kill this thief and save His Majesty from the fire and water!"
Mi Fang said with shame: "My lord, this matter was proposed by Cao Cao's subordinate Dong Zhao!"
"Cao Cao refuses to accept the offer now, but only agrees to add Jiuxi!"
Guan Yu snorted coldly: "Thief Cao still has some conscience and knows that his virtue is not worthy of his place!"
Hearing that Cao Cao bullied Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bei couldn't help crying. Everyone present fell into sobs when they saw their lord like this.
hehe!
"Second uncle, you still don't understand Cao Cao's style. You have to build an archway even if you are a female cousin!"
"Could it be that this matter was learned from Mrs. Bian, who was born in a prostitute?"
Liu Mang yawned and said with a smile: "Why are you crying? If you cry day and night, can you cry to death for Cao Cao?"
Rebellious son!
Liu Bei said angrily: "Your Majesty is humiliated. As Han officials, how can we feel better?"
Liu Mang said calmly: "Father, then why don't you just launch an army for the Northern Expedition and fight to the death with Cao Cao?"
this……
Liu Bei frowned and said, "If my father raises an army, wouldn't that give Zhou Yu an opportunity to take advantage of?"
"You're such a traitor, you said before that you wanted to capture Jiaozhou first!"
"By the way, my father has already sent a letter to Wu Ju, threatening that Sun Quan may be up to no good and asking him to invite our army to Cangwu!"
Ahem!
Liu Mang had to admire his cheap father, who was really a crow's mouth sometimes.
At least news came from Feiyu that a Shanyue force of three thousand people had set out from Soochow and wanted to defect to Shixie.
Now Shi Xie also adds Jiuxi and can command one side as a prince.
The ambitious Shi Xie naturally wanted to increase his troops to guard against Liu Bei and Sun Quan.
Shi Xie will definitely take possession of these three thousand Shanyue veterans who are good at fighting.
If you want to go to Shi Xie's residence, you will inevitably pass by Cangwu.
Liu Mang sneered, Jiangdong rats always like to pretend to backstab!
"Dad, you did a good job!"
"Mang'er, you're welcome! Wait! Why are you praising me as a father? Do I need to praise you, a rebellious son?"
While father and son were talking, Zhuge Liang smiled helplessly.
Pang Tong only felt that the wine was more fragrant, and Xu Shu smiled and said nothing.
"Cao Cao bullies the emperor. This is a deliberate demonstration! I don't need to say who he is targeting!"
"My father is currently weak, so sending troops is obviously unrealistic!"
"As a member of the Han clan and not a filial son, Liu Ye, my father must not sit idly by and watch!"
As soon as Liu Mang said this, Liu Bei waved his hand and signaled to the traitor that he had cried just now and was loyal to His Majesty.
You can have this attitude of trying to find someone, but it's totally unnecessary!
"Ahem! Mang'er, my father knows that you are loyal to the big man and your Majesty..."
"Dad! What do you know? I am so loyal to him! What rank does he have that he deserves my loyalty?"
Liu Mang sneered and said: "The Han Dynasty has long been in decay! If our army wants to continue the system of the Han Dynasty, the final result will be to repeat the same mistakes!"
"The Han Dynasty that my father wants to build is definitely not the Han Dynasty under Gaozu and Guangwu! It is a brand new Han Dynasty!"
Liu Bei is a little anxious. He has been doing things in the name of a clan member of the Han Dynasty. You, the treacherous son, cannot expose this!
"Ahem! Actually, Mang'er..."
"What the young master said is true!"
Zhuge Liang gently shook his feather fan and stood up to support Liu Mang: "How many people with lofty ideals have been hindered by the inspection system from entering the court and becoming officials? This move must not be followed by the Han Dynasty!"
Pang Tong nodded and said: "There are many prefectures and counties, and how many people regard them as their country, but do not know the emperor! Such bad habits must not be inherited!"
Xu Shu picked up Pang Tong's wine gourd, took a sip, and said with a smile: "The laws are lax! Using filial piety to recruit talents is simply the most ridiculous thing in the world!"
Rebellion! All three gentlemen have rebelled!
Liu Bei was worried, and all three military advisors followed the bad example of the traitor!
"Brother, although Cao Cao is a traitor to the country, his meritocracy is worth emulating by our army!"
Guan Yu waved his fist and said: "Mang'er is right, the big man in the hands of the elder brother is definitely not the same as today!"
Zhang Fei looked at everyone, then clasped his fists and said, "Brother! What Mang'er said makes sense!"
Liu Bei said angrily: "Third brother, please stop causing trouble!"
Lu Xun thought for a while, then stood up and said, "My lord! As you said, we regard the Han Dynasty as our great cause, but we cannot act according to the Han system in everything!"
"The gentry monopolizes knowledge and powerful men occupy the land. How can the people of the world survive?"
"Just like that in Jiangdong, ordinary people have all become members of the four major families!"
Liu Bei took a deep breath, and then looked at Liu Mang: "Treason! Then tell me, what should we do if His Majesty is humiliated?"
Liu Mang yawned and waved, and Xing Daorong immediately presented him with a bunch of candied haws.
"I want you to get a pen, why do you give me candied haws?"
"Hehe... The general will realize his mistake for a moment!"
Deng Ai shook his head helplessly. As a book boy, he quickly handed over pen and paper.
"We want to vent our anger on His Majesty, and we want to disgust Cao Cao, and we want to declare to the whole world that we will fight Cao Cao to the end for Your Majesty!"
Liu Mang smiled and said: "So, I plan to write a letter and let the envoy deliver it to the powerful hands of the world!"
"Liu Zhang of Yizhou, Zhang Lu of Hanzhong, Ma Chao of Xiliang, Han Sui!"
"Sun Quan from Jiangdong, Gongsun Kang from Liaodong, Shixie from Jiaozhou!"
"They will all receive letters and understand our army's determination to resist Cao Cao!"
Liu Bei wondered: "Mang'er, can you really write a letter and make everyone in the world know your determination to be a father?"
Reputation is important!
If Liu Mang operates correctly, he will undoubtedly confirm Liu Bei's status as a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty.
"Or, should I practice with you first?"
"No need!"
The mouth of a traitor is a hurtful ghost!
Liu Bei didn't want to be injured innocently. It was better for Cao Cao to bear the pain himself!
"My handwriting is not very good..."
"It doesn't matter, just come and write for me."
"Thank you sir!"
There are two masters and apprentices, one writes it down orally, and the other writes it down.
Pang Tong sent him wine gourds from time to time, which made Liu Mang blush.
The generals laughed heartily, and the civil servants rushed to record it.
Liu Bei was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Come here! Send the letter to Xuchang quickly! I can't wait to see Cao Cao's expression!"
"Isn't Cao Cao's son good at composing poetry? My son's talent will never be inferior to theirs!"
Liu Mang was a little tipsy and said with a smile: "Dad, pour me some wine!"
Liu Bei was furious: "You rebellious son! Wait, I will fill it up for you right now!"
