Outside the camp, Chu Nan rode his horse and walked between Lu Bu and Huang Zhong. The enemy troops were already watching in the distance. Chu Nan felt uneasy and couldn't help but look at his father-in-law again.
"Don't worry." Lu Bu used his sonorous and powerful voice to calm his son-in-law's uneasiness.
In view of his father-in-law's occasionally unreliable credibility, Chu Nan turned his attention to Huang Zhong again. Huang Zhong nodded to express his peace of mind. The veteran was here to keep his lord safe!
Only then did Chu Nan feel more at ease. He rode out on horseback, with the strength of the army pouring into his whole body. Looking at Cao Jun who had formed a formation in the distance, he took a deep breath, then took another deep breath, wanting to take another breath.
At this moment, Lu Bu's coughing sound came from behind.
Chu Nan galloped forward with some embarrassment, his anger sank in his Dantian, and the strength of the army burst out with his loud shout: "I am Chu Nan, the prefect of Xiapi, and the prefect of Lujiang and Jiujiang counties. Where is Mr. Xuande? My old friend.
We meet again, why would we regret seeing each other?"
"Chun Nan?" Liu Bei, who was preparing for the battle, heard the sound and looked here, with mixed emotions in his eyes, including regret and hatred; it was a pity that this talent was missed from his own hands, and this talent directly helped Lu Bu stabilize Xuzhou, and even
He also helped Lu Bu defeat Yuan Shu and win the land of Jianghuai.
And where did the hatred come from? It probably started when the Chen family was exterminated and the Chen family and his son were executed in Guangling.
Whether in terms of interests or emotions, Liu Bei has a good relationship with the Chen family. When he was in Xuzhou, he did receive a lot of help from the Chen family. Regardless of the purpose, Liu Bei will always remember this friendship in his heart.
, especially Chen Deng and Liu Bei were regarded as close friends.
However, his close friend was defeated in Guangling. He was defeated by Lu Bu, whom they had always looked down on, and by Chu Nan, who was a merchant.
When Liu Bei heard the news for the first time, his first reaction was that he didn't believe it. He couldn't believe that the resourceful Chen Deng would be defeated by the brave and foolhardy Lu Bu.
However, things have already happened, and facts speak louder than words. When the news came that the Chen family was exterminated, Liu Bei almost fainted on the spot.
Now, a long time has passed since the Battle of Guangling. Many Xuzhou nobles fled Xuzhou and defected to Xuchang, many of whom defected to Liu Bei. The specific situation at that time gradually became clear through the accounts of these people.
He also understood Chu Nan's role in the entire Xuzhou change. From then on, he began to hate this son from the bottom of his heart, and the hatred started from then on!
"It turns out it's the Governor of Chu!" Liu Bei calmed down and led Generals Guan and Zhang to the front of the battle. He clasped his fists at Chu Nan and said, "Bei has not yet congratulated you for achieving your wish."
What is Chu Nan's wish?
Isn’t it just about entering an official career and becoming a personal master?
At least in the eyes of Liu Bei, this is the case. In the eyes of many people, not just Liu Bei, Chu Nan is actually a businessman who is unwilling to be ordinary. This is true at the beginning. If it were not limited by his background, Chu Nan would even want to embrace the lap of the nobles.
However, things in the world are ever-changing, and people's hearts are constantly changing. As he experiences more and more things and gains more power, Chu Nan's thoughts naturally change quietly.
Judging from Chu Nan's background, it is almost impossible to reach this stage, but Chu Nan has achieved it. The official career fame and fortune obtained by stepping on the white bones is obviously inconsistent with Liu Bei's philosophy.
But what really surprised Chu Nan was that Liu Bei's emotions towards him were mostly filled with hatred?
Chu Nan mastered the magical power of emotion, and Liu Bei's thoughts of hatred were naturally noticed by him keenly. Although he didn't know the reason, the thoughts of hatred are one of the seven emotions that are easier to arouse, and it suits his heart.
As for why Liu Bei hated him, Chu Nan didn't care. Anyway, he was already an enemy now and might be dead soon, so why should he care?
"What does Mr. Xuande mean by this? Mr. Chu got his position today because of his own hard work. He did not steal or rob. When he took office, he asked himself that he had benefited the people of the area. How did he end up here with Mr. Xuande? It seems that
Is this just a lucky break?" Chu Nan thought, but his face was filled with a harmless smile, and he looked at Liu Bei with a puzzled expression.
"The position of Chu Envoy was obtained by trampling on the bones of human beings. For his own selfish interests, he harmed the lives of thousands of people. I am deeply ashamed of this! I am even more ashamed to be associated with you!" Liu Bei said loudly.
"So Mr. Xuande will never understand what benevolence and righteousness is!" Chu Nan looked at Liu Bei and smiled: "Besides, Mr. Xuande, you and I are standing here talking today. Mr. Xuande thinks that you and I can still be friends.
necessary?"
Benevolence and righteousness are what Liu Bei has always pursued and what he cares about most. Chu Nan wants to use this to arouse Liu Bei's emotions.
"What did you say!?" Zhang Fei said angrily: "Go back to Xuzhou and ask who doesn't say that my brother is benevolent and righteous?"
"Xiaoren Xiaoyier!" Chu Nan shook his head and said disdainfully: "Why don't you ask the people of Xuzhou whether they would rather have my father-in-law as the lord of Xuzhou or him?"
What surprised Chu Nan was that in this situation, Liu Bei's emotions of hatred or anger were not moved by Chu Nan. Compared with Xiahou Dun, Liu Bei's ability to control emotions was amazing.
"I dare to ask the envoy, what is Xiaoren? If my brothers are both Xiaoren and Xiaoyi, who can be called Dairen and righteousness?" Guan Yu immediately stepped forward, looked at Chu Nan and said coldly, "Everything else is easy to say, but what is the meaning of my brother's benevolence and righteousness?"
Name is something that the three brothers must defend.
Chu Nan took a deep look at Liu Bei. He had a tough mind and his emotions were not easy to control. It would be better to choose someone who is easy to control.
He turned his attention to Zhang Fei.
"What are you looking at? My second brother is asking you!" Zhang Fei saw Chu Nan looking at him. The look in his eyes made him very uncomfortable. He glared and shouted filial piety.
If Lu Bu hadn't been watching from the side, he would have really wanted to stab Chu Nan to death with a spear.
"Small benevolence and righteousness, just like Mr. Xuande, give some small favors to make people grateful. However, for the benefited people, it only relieves a temporary emergency. Soon after, they return to normal, and their lives are calm and calm.
, there were some ripples because Xuande voted for a stone, and soon it returned to calm. It was still a pool of stagnant water, gradually evaporating." Chu Nan shook his head, and to this day, he still can't fully understand Zhang Fei's tiger roar.
Immunity.
"Are you saying that your father-in-law is kind and righteous?" Zhang Fei grinned and said, "Have you heard about the three surnamed family slaves?"
As he spoke, he looked at Lu Bu with a wary look on his face, whose eyes suddenly became sharp. However, what surprised him was that although Lu Bu had murderous intent in his eyes, he did not take action immediately like yesterday.
Did you take the wrong medicine?
Before Zhang Fei could figure it out, Chu Nan's annoying voice sounded over there.
"The general's statement about the three surnamed domestic slaves is really ridiculous. My father-in-law has been a Han official from the beginning to the end. The three surnamed domestic slaves you mentioned are just because my father-in-law first served Ding Yuan and then Dong Zhuoer. If so, Xuande
Gong Fu left Gong Sun, and later defected to Tao Qian. Couldn't he also be regarded as a slave of the three surnames?"
Angry, angry!
Chu Nan could clearly feel that as his words fell, Zhang Fei's anger level soared to an extremely high level in an instant. He didn't even need to use his magical power to provoke Zhang Fei's anger level. He calmly said
He moved his horse to the other side, but he was a little worried. He would not be in danger, right?
"Speaking of general, your surname is Zhang, but you call Xuande Gong and General Guan your brothers. These are also three surnames. Are you calling yourself a slave with three surnames?"
Chu Nan's voice was passionate, but his eyes were looking at Zhang Fei with vigilance. As long as he moved, he would run away immediately!
Fengzimi has been poured into the whole body.
"Yide!" Guan Yu suppressed Zhang Fei and asked him to wake up. At this time, it would be difficult to escape from the fight with Lu Bu. They were here to provoke Lu Bu, not to be provoked.
"You haven't spoken about your benevolence and righteousness yet!" Guan Yu looked at Chu Nan and said, this kid has a really bad mouth. Guan Yu could tell that this kid was deliberately irritating them.
"It's simple. The farmer has his land, the dweller has his house, the sick has his doctor, and the diligent has his industry. You can go to Xuzhou and see. What the forefathers failed to achieve has now begun to be gradually realized in Xuzhou. Even though my father-in-law
He had some flaws in the past, but those flaws are not concealed, and this alone is enough to make his father-in-law famous forever!" Chu Nan said loudly.
"It was just made by eating the blood of scholars, so why is it worthy of praise?" Zhang Fei said angrily.
"When a whale falls, all things come into being. The development of the gentry to this day, whether they are willing to admit it or not, has become a sore in the world. If the gentry becomes stronger, the poorer and more miserable the people will be, the bigger the sore will be. I know their
There are people of noble character among them, but so what?" Chu Nan looked at the three of them and said loudly: "This is a long-term disadvantage. The entire world's resources are concentrated on them. You only saw the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Zhang Jiao inspired countless
The people flocked to follow him. Have you ever thought about why he was able to inspire so many people? Those heads that were presented to the court as meritorious deeds were only moved because they could not eat. Who has thought about them? "
"As long as there are people who stutter, the people will not rise up. This is not only because the government officials are corrupt, but also because there are not many resources in the world that can be allocated to them. What they are allocated is no longer enough to survive. They have no choice but to rise up.
There is no way to survive anymore! It’s not just us who are stepping on the white bones to reach high positions, they are the first to start. Xuande Gong always prides himself on benevolence and righteousness, but how dare he sacrifice his butcher knife to these people?" Chu Nan looked at Liu Bei.
“Mr.
How could my filthy father-in-law be so loved by the people? It’s because Duke Xuande’s eyes have never really fallen on them!”
At this moment, Chu Nan felt that Liu Bei's mood began to waver and he began to feel depressed.
"You fart!" Zhang Fei said angrily: "How do you know that my brother doesn't care about the people?"
"If you cared, there wouldn't be today's dispute. If you cared, when the general saw my father-in-law, he wouldn't say anything about the three surnamed domestic slaves, but would fight for the land with his head!" Chu Nan laughed, and the emotions of Liu Bei and Zhang Fei
They have all been affected, but Liu Bei is pretty good at controlling his emotions, so let’s start with Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei was already extremely angry. After Chu Nan said this, for some reason, his anger surged to the top. His eyes were gradually filled with bloodshot eyes. He suddenly let out a loud shout and charged towards Chu Nan...
