0267 Chapter Honest Xu Shu

"Your Highness, be careful, you have murderous intent!"

On the mountain road south of Wollongong, Guan Hai suddenly rushed to the front of the team with his sword drawn horizontally, looked ahead with great vigilance and stopped the team from moving forward.

"Oh my god, it turned out to be Liu Bei and the others. What a coincidence."

"Ah? How did your Highness know that they were Liu Bei's men? Does it count if His Highness can pinch them?!" Guan Hai asked in surprise.

"Can you use your brain? Even if you have never met Liu Bei, you should know that big flag, right? Damn it, you have been fighting with me for so long and you don't even use your brain?..."

Qin Yang pointed angrily at the team of hundreds of people not far away from the opposite side. He could no longer describe Guan Hai's IQ as being anxious.

On the mountain road, 200 meters in front of Qin Yang's team of nearly a hundred people, another team of several hundred people was waiting in formation, with a large banner with the character "Liu" flying high above its head.

Under the banner, three military generals and a very thin scholar were sitting side by side on the horse. The military general in the middle had a calm face and was in his thirties. At first glance, he gave the impression that he was a kindhearted man.

The person he can rely on is wearing a black light armor and carrying a sword that is much thicker than an ordinary sword on his waist. Others don't know, but Qin Yang knows that what is in the scabbard is

Although the sword looks like just one sword, it is actually two extremely thin long swords. Now as the reputation of its owner grows, the name of these two swords has gradually become known to the world - "double-branched sword".

sword".

On the left side of this person is a burly, red-faced man wearing blue armor. Looking up, the man has a pair of slender, phoenix eyes, which reveal a frightening murderous aura from time to time. His five long beards are particularly eye-catching.

Qin Yang vaguely remembered that this man did not have such a delicate beard when he killed Zhang Bao a few years ago, but now it seems that he really deserves the title of "Beautiful Beard Master". This man is holding one hand on the horse's neck,

The other hand held an extremely heavy broadsword diagonally behind his back. A green dragon seemed to be alive on the blade of the longsword, hovering upwards, with a heavy sharp edge spitting out from the dragon's mouth.

On the other side is a strong man who is as big as an iron tower. Under his dark brown skin are incomparable muscles that are as tangled as steel bars. He does not have any armor on his body, and he wears one at an angle.

He was wearing a black robe and stared at Qin Yang with a pair of big leopard-like eyes. There seemed to be endless anger in his eyes. Beside him, a very long spear had been deeply inserted into the ground, and he was naked.

The hands are gearing up and eager to try.

Qin Yang had become very familiar with the appearance of these three people more than ten years ago. Throughout the history of the Three Kingdoms, it would be extremely difficult to find people who are similar to the three brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang. So at this time, Qin Yang

Yang's eyes focused on the thin scholar sitting next to Zhang Fei on horseback.

Before this, Qin Yang already knew that Liu Bei's current military advisor was Xu Shu and Xu Yuanzhi, but he had never met Xu Shu, and he also knew that the current era was very different from the history he knew. Moreover, this was in Wollongong. Qin Yang

I'm really not sure whether the thin scholar in front of me is Zhuge Liang, who existed like a monster in legend, or Xu Shu, Liu Bei's current military advisor.

"Oh? It turns out to be Master Liu Bei. I didn't expect to meet an old friend here. Qin Yang's trip is really worthwhile..." After pondering for a moment, Qin Yang took the lead and said with a smile.

Before Liu Bei could speak, Zhang Fei snorted coldly and said: "Humph! It's like we met by chance. Don't you guys know that Wollongong is my eldest brother's territory? You're here, my eldest brother

How could you not know?"

Zhang Fei didn't have a good impression of Qin Yang. Although he had seen Qin Yang fight with Lu Bu in front of Hulao Pass, the incident of being blown away by Qin Yang above Xiangcheng still made him brood. So this

I met Qin Yang for the first time in Wollongong. Naturally, he didn't have a good look on his face.

"Third brother, please don't be rude!" After Liu Bei scolded Zhang Fei, a smile as warm as the sun appeared on his face and said: "Your Highness, King Ming, please forgive my third brother for his remarks. It's because I also have troops stationed around Wollongong.

, so I got the news as soon as His Highness King Ming entered Wollongong. His Highness King Ming was an imperial prince in charge of a heavy army. The emperor was very pleased to know that His Highness had come to pay homage, so he immediately sent his subordinates to greet him. If there is anything wrong,

Please forgive me, Your Highness."

Qin Yang saw Liu Bei bring out the Emperor of Han as soon as he opened his mouth. He couldn't help but sneer in his heart, and then said lightly: "Oh? Listening to what Uncle Liu Huang said, does it mean that His Majesty the Emperor also recognizes my title as the Yellow Turban Ming King?"

This sentence undoubtedly means that Qin Yang caught the loophole in Liu Bei's words, and in turn ridiculed Liu Bei, like Cao Cao, for holding the emperor hostage to order the princes.

However, after Liu Bei heard Qin Yang's words, the expression on his face did not move at all. He smiled slightly and his eyes fell on the thin scholar next to him.

The thin scholar immediately understood. He put his hand into his arms and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness King Ming is indeed well-informed. The emperor has just drafted the edict, but he never thought that His Highness has already received the news."

"Edict?!" Qin Yang was startled and saw the thin scholar respectfully take out a piece of yellow silk and then slowly unfold it.

"By God's blessing, His Majesty the Emperor of the Han Dynasty issued an edict. Qin Yang, the King of Hanzhong, is loyal and loyal to the country. He has worked hard to eliminate traitors for the country. He has also taken the trouble to come to Xinye to pay homage. I am very pleased. I specially ennoble Qin Yang to the title of Yellow Turban Ming King and enjoy the title of the first-class prince in the empire. I hereby express my gratitude.

.”

The thin scholar's voice was extremely clear, and could be heard clearly by hundreds of people present. Because they were in a dense forest, Liu Bei and others also knew that Qin Yang would never dismount to accept the order at this moment, so they simply handed over the edict of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty to

I read it out. Even so, the content of the edict made most of the people present stunned!

"The emperor actually issued an edict to make me the Yellow Turban Ming King?!" Qin Yang thought in his mind. Just now he just wanted to use words to win over Liu Bei, who always regarded himself as a loyal minister, but he didn't expect that the other party could actually show the emperor.

The imperial edict clearly stated that he should enter Xinye City to pay homage to the emperor, but now he was in a bit of trouble.

"Haha, congratulations to His Royal Highness the Yellow Turban Prince Ming. Please also ask His Highness Prince Ming to accept the order." After losing weight, he raised his hands high in front of his body and looked at Qin Yang with a smile.

Qin Yang looked with doubts in his eyes and couldn't help but fell into a dilemma. There are only two possibilities for the current situation. First, Liu Bei knew that he had lost his words. The thin scholar came to the rescue and randomly took out a scroll from his arms and claimed that it was the emperor's edict.

The central point is that Qin Yang should go to Xinye to meet him. In this way, Qin Yang would not dare to accept the edict in order not to go to Xinye. In this way, Liu Bei would have the upper hand. At best, he could overpower Qin Yang. At worst, he could overpower Qin Yang.

Qin Yang and others can be captured at any time in the name of "resisting the imperial edict and being disrespectful". If this is the case, even if word spreads, the public opinion of the princes in the world will only be on Liu Bei's side.

The second is that this edict is true. That is, Liu Bei deliberately designed Qin Yang and others to fall into a trap and wait for Qin Yang in Wollongong. In that case, even if Qin Yang didn't ask, Liu Bei would come up with it

This is the most terrifying possibility. If Qin Yang enters the new country, although there may not be any danger, it will undoubtedly announce to the world that he is on Liu Bei's side in the Jingzhou dispute.

Liu Bei was able to pull the powerful Yellow Turban Army into his camp without spending a penny. Such a strategy made Qin Yang feel horrified just thinking about it.

There are two situations, one is premeditated and the other is adaptable. But neither is a good choice for Qin Yang. Looking at the current strength comparison between the two sides, although one side has one more fighting spirit beast than the other side

Strong men. But Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are among the best generals, and this is Liu Bei's territory. Who knows how many troops Liu Bei still has in this vast mountain?

Thinking of this, Qin Yang made a decisive decision. In this case, then I will take a gamble. Instead of worrying about whether to accept or not, it is better to bet on whether this is true or false. If this edict is false, then he can turn his back and occupy the

A moral advantage.

"Qin Yang kowtows to thank God!" Qin Yang made up his mind and immediately rode his horse forward. Seeing Qin Yang moving forward, the thin scholar also smiled slightly and urged his horse to go between the two sides.

"May I ask, sir, are you Wolong?" Qin Yang stretched out his hand to take the edict and stared at the thin scholar and asked.

The thin scholar smiled slightly, and after handing the edict to Qin Yang, he said slowly: "Reporting to your highness, I don't dare to take the name of Mr. Wolong. My surname is Xu Mingshu. Thanks to the wrong love of the world, I am called Never Lie.

An honest person..."

"Honest Xu Shu?!" Qin Yang's heart sank, and the hand holding the edict instantly stopped in mid-air. Although he was not sure whether the thin scholar was Xu Shu or Zhuge Liang, since this place is Wollongong, and it is Zhuge Liang

His wife Huang Yueying asked him to come here to look for Wolong. In his heart, he had already regarded the thin scholar as Zhuge Liang.

Although he had heard rumors that Xu Shu was an "honest man who never lies", he didn't think so. However, after hearing this sentence from Xu Shu's mouth at this moment, he felt a chill in his heart.

Since Xu Shu himself said that he never lied, could this edict be false? Thinking of this, Qin Yang put away the edict in a daze, and his expression became depressed.

"Haha, in that case, how about I ask His Highness Prince Ming to come with me to Xinye City to meet with His Majesty?" When Liu Bei saw Qin Yang accepting the edict, the smile on his face couldn't help but grow brighter.

"Your Highness, Xinye is Liu Bei's home base. You can't go there!" Zhao Yun rode his horse to Qin Yang's side and whispered.

Guo Jia also said: "Your Highness, although they have the upper hand, we are still able to fight now..."

"That's all." Qin Yang waved his hand, shook his head and said: "I didn't expect that Xu Shu's scheming alone was so terrifying. Liu Biao couldn't beat Liu Bei's... What's more, it was Zhuge Liang who tricked us here. It seems that Zhuge Liang's heart is also towards Liu Bei.

In that case, let’s just be a favor and make it easier to talk to Zhuge Liang when we see him in the future.”,

After finishing speaking, Qin Yang turned to Liu Bei and laughed loudly: "Then I'll thank Uncle Liu. It's Qin Yang's honor to be able to meet His Majesty..."
