Riding and cutting the imperial pirates of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 271
When Liu Bei walked through the stone path of the mansion with the guidance of his servants, there was a scribe standing in the atrium with his hands behind his back, gazing at the spring scenery of the garden at dusk, with a kind of graceful and luxurious demeanor.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, the scribe looked over at Xunsheng, saw that it was Liu Bei, forced a smile, and said, "Mr. Xuande, you are here."

This scribe is the current head of the Mi family, don't drive Mi Zhu.

"Brother Zizhong." Seeing the other party's face, Liu Bei felt something bad, so he moved to his left and stood a little later, watching the spring scenery outside the garden with him, and then asked in a low voice: " But what happened?"

Mi Zhu turned his head to look at him, then turned back and sighed softly.

"Brother Zizhong, you and I fell in love at the first sight." Liu Bei saw this, his expression straightened, and he said sincerely: "If you have something on your mind, Bei is alone and unable to help you. Could it be that you can't tell each other directly?"

Hearing this, Mi Zhu showed a bitter smile again, and said, "Mr. Xuande, you know that Zhou Mu urgently summoned you, why?"

"What's the matter?" Liu Bei was a little stunned. His three brothers came here to help Xuzhou and solve the Yellow Turban Rebellion. I thought Tao Qian summoned him today because he finally made up his mind to send troops, but seeing Mi Zhu's strange expression now , it seems that this is not the case at all.

After a period of unnatural silence, Mi Zhu raised his head to the sky and sighed, "I'm afraid that Zhou Mu will die soon."

"what?"

Hearing this, Liu Bei was shocked, and couldn't help crying: "How could this be?"

"When I saw Zhou Mu last month, he was in good health and in good spirits."

"The state shepherd is in his sixtieth year, sixty-three." Mi Zhu said: "After the defeat of Pengcheng last year, wherever the Yanzhou army went, they killed people and dug graves. After hearing this, the state shepherd looked up to the sky in shame and anger. Weeping, vomiting blood for three liters, and fainting on the spot, he once said that he was guilty of the crime, causing the people of Xuzhou to suffer this disaster!"

"As a result, tigers went to the front door, and wolves fell to the back household. Just as Cao Cao retreated without fighting because of the civil strife in Yanzhou, another [-] Qingzhou yellow scarf thieves invaded our territory. Zhou Mu had no time to recuperate, so he had to drag his sick body and barely support it. Until now , I’ve run out of fuel, I can’t hold on any longer, hey.”

But Mi Zhu didn't know that in the original history, Tao Qian was about to run out of lifespan last winter, sometimes life is so wonderful, it was precisely the king's government who committed the crime, and Liu Bei came nearly half a year late due to historical deviation Instead, Tao Qian barely survived for three months because of his concern.

"This..." Liu Bei was at a loss for a while, while secretly complaining that he was not careful enough to observe people, so he never found Tao Qian's health, and at the same time suddenly understood that Tao Qian had never responded positively to the matter of eliminating thieves.

I'm afraid that during this period of time, the state shepherd is preoccupied with nothing but planning for the funeral of his descendants.

"Mr. Tao is very sick, even if he can't see things, he won't be so serious that he is dying, right?" Liu Bei said, "But I don't know if the eldest son or the second son will be in charge next?"

Hearing this, Mi Zhu turned around quickly, and said in a deep voice: "These two sons are not talented, how can they be worthy of the important responsibility of the country!"

"Then..." Liu Bei's heart was beating wildly when he saw him, and he said uncomfortably: "Brother Zizhong, if the two sons are not suitable, there is still Yuan Gonglu, the fourth and third son, who returned from overseas and is near Shouchun in Yangzhou. The state let him?"

"Yuan Shu?" Mi Zhu sneered again and again when he heard the words: "Mr. Xuande knows that not long ago I was under the new defeat in Xuzhou and was ravaged by the Yellow Turban. At such a critical juncture, apart from Kong Beihai, Zhou Mu also wrote to this person for help. Who knows."

"Not only did this man fail to rescue the poor, but he secretly dispatched troops to station in Zhongli, and Dian Danhu looked at Xiapi. Such a wolfish ambition and villainous behavior, how can he be entrusted to him!"

Speaking of this, Mi Zhu looked at Liu Bei with burning eyes, changed the subject, and said solemnly: "According to what I saw, Mr. Xuande is the youngest of the imperial family, with great virtue and talent, he can lead Xuzhou!"

"No!" Although there was a faint guess in his heart, but when he encountered such a great thing that the pie fell from the sky, Liu Bei's first reaction was to turn pale with shock:

"Kong Wenju ordered Bei to save Xuzhou. It is righteousness. Now that there is no reason for it, the world will be prepared for the unrighteous!"

Liu Bei said these words from the bottom of his heart, not pretending to be evasive.

Xuzhou is rich in resources, rich in wealth, with millions of households, and its people are martial arts. It is also the land of dragon prosperity of Emperor Han Gao. If you say that you have not thought about it, you are deceiving yourself and others.

However, Liu Bei's original idea was to help Tao Qian calm the chaos first, so that he would make a contribution and have a famous weapon. At that time, whether the other party presented him with soldiers, horses, food and grass, or recommended him as the lord of a county or a country, Liu Bei would be worthy of it and happily accept it. .

But at this time, when he has not achieved an inch of merit, if he accepts Xuzhou, wouldn't he be the one who takes away his foundation when he is sick and dying?
"Mr. Xuande, this statement is wrong." After contacting for a while, Mi Zhu has become convinced that Liu Bei is indeed a true gentleman of benevolence and righteousness. The reason for ventilating with Liu Bei first: "This is not what a certain person meant, but"

At this moment, a servant rushed in and cried, "Don't drive, my lord is vomiting blood again!"

Mi Zhu and Liu Bei's expression changed at the same time.

When Liu Bei and Mi Zhu walked into the inner room, they saw the ruler of the former Xuzhou party lying on his back on the bed by the window, his face was sallow, his eyes were closed, and his breathing was soft.

At this time, Tao Qian was just an old man exuding a lifeless spirit, and some strength from nowhere was still supporting him, making him struggle to death under the clutches of Nether.

His wives and concubines were all crying like tears, thanks to the support of a group of maids, they didn't fall to the ground, and the two sons just stood by the couch, holding Tao Qian's hand tightly, without saying a word, Silent.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Tao Qian's face twitched for a while, and then he managed to open his eyes. Seeing that it was Liu Bei, he immediately beamed with joy, his lips trembled for a long time, but he never said a word.

After a while, he suddenly shook off the hands of his two sons, and pointed at Liu Bei tremblingly.

Seeing this, his eldest son, Tao Shang, showed a look of unwillingness in his eyes, but his heart softened after all. He didn't want to disobey his father at the last moment of his life. He wiped his eyes, turned his head to look at Liu Bei, and said in a muffled voice : "Father wants to talk to Duke Xuande alone, let's go out first."

After everyone withdrew one after another, Liu Bei moved to the couch, knelt down, held Tao Qian's hand tightly, and softly called out, "Duke Tao, prepare here."

Tao Qian painstakingly projected his gloomy eyes on his face, showing an extremely complicated expression.

There is not only nostalgia for life, fear of death, but also great help and trust.

Holding Tao Qian's trembling hand, Liu Bei couldn't help but burst into tears, he suddenly understood everything, and Tao Qian was silently saying the same words as Mi Zhu.

My illness is critically ill, and it is hard to survive day and night; Wanwang Minggong takes pity on the Han family's city, and accepts the Xuzhou card seal, and the old man will die in peace!
We have only known each other for a few months, and met only three times, how can I, Liu Bei, be able to gain his trust so much?

And I, Liu Bei, have no eyes and no eyes, not long ago, I had feelings of resentment towards Mr. Tao!
Holding Tao Qian's trembling hand, Liu Bei was both ashamed and sad, and couldn't help but burst into tears.

He understood Tao Qian's meaning, Yuan Shuhu was on the sidelines, the Yellow Turban disturbed one side, and the great enemy Cao Cao may attack again once the civil strife in Yanzhou is resolved.

Today's Xuzhou has long been a hot potato. What Tao Qian handed over to him is not only the foundation he has devoted his life to, but also a heavy burden.

He no longer has any reason to refuse!

Staring at Tao Qian, Liu Bei paused and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Tao, Bei will surely let Xuzhou enjoy peace and peace in the territory!"

Hearing this, Tao Qian's eyes sparkled brightly, revealing a look of surprise, relief, and gratitude, then turned and retracted, and slowly closed his eyes, pointing his palms, and turning his head weakly to the side.

A generation of heroes passed away.

Langya County.

Under the stars of Wu Sheng and others, as soon as Wang Zheng entered the city, he felt a strange feeling.

Is that intimacy?
This made Wang Zheng very inexplicable. He tasted it secretly for a long time before he was sure that the source of this intimacy was not his own soul of the descendant, but the body obtained after time travel.

Maybe even the original owner came here, and he may not be able to discover this, but only Wang Zheng's extraordinary physique, which has been blessed by the system, can faintly feel it.

Is it the "wangzheng" who has been here?
still?

Amidst the sound of horseshoes, I calmed down temporarily, walked on the wide bluestone road, looked at the houses and businesses on both sides of the road, everything in front of me was very strange, and occasionally I could feel the curiosity coming out of the windows and doors gaze.

Although it was baptized by war not long ago, it seems that it was because of the initiative of the noble families to open the city, but the impact was not great.

When they arrived at the mansion, it was getting late, and Wu Sheng had already prepared a banquet. In addition to the generals of the Heavenly Army, there were also many local prominent families and officials with relatively high status who had no part to greet the king.

When he really entered the banquet, Wang Zheng was secretly surprised by the level of extravagance in front of him, and couldn't help but look at Wu Sheng.

There are some rare and delicious delicacies, the last time he had his eyes opened when he was in the Yan Mansion, it was hard for him.

Most of the people who went to the banquet were unknown to Wang Zheng. After Wu Sheng introduced them one by one, he realized that they were basically local gentry and prominent families, and some of them were even literati and celebrities who were searched by Wu Sheng. I was really overjoyed, and I couldn't help but glance at Wu Sheng with admiration.

The luck of this idiot is really astonishing. I searched the two counties for several months, but now there is only one Mi Heng and one Zhang Zhao, and they are all the result of mistakes.

Fortunately for him, he only occupied a county seat for a short period of time, and then someone came to work?

Of course, the fly in the ointment was that among the guests present, there were no two families that Wang Zheng wanted to see the most.

Although he was a little upset, on the surface Wang Zheng didn't show any emotion, he just chatted and laughed with everyone, and the whole room was full of joy.

The banquet didn't end until the third watch, and the generals dispersed. Although he was a little sleepy after the long journey, when he arrived at the elegant room, Wang Zheng was not in a hurry to go to bed, and first discussed with Wu Sheng.

After listening to Wu Sheng talk about the current situation of governing Langya during this period, Wang Zheng nodded, and then asked: "How do you get along with Wang and Yan these days?"

"Don't mention it." At this point, Wu Sheng was furious, and there was a hint of fierceness in his eyes: "If Ah Zheng hadn't told you in advance, I would have killed the grandsons of these two families long ago!"

He chattered and complained: "Not long after I captured this county, I found a scribe to write me an invitation letter, and even made a name. I wanted to pay a polite visit, but I was rejected!"

Speaking of this, Wu Sheng's face was still flushed with anger after so many days: "His grandma's, these two families are really nothing!"

"It's from a small family. When visitors come to visit, I also know that please come in for a glass of water first."

"Haha." Hearing this, Wang Zheng sat leisurely on the couch indoors, and said with a smile, "You also suffer from boredom sometimes."

It’s not because you’ve been pulling your ears and telling them eight hundred times that you can’t touch them before you set off.
Wu Sheng glanced at Wang Zheng resentfully, but he didn't dare to speak out.

"That's what you want." Wang Zheng walked around the hall a few times with his hands behind his back, and said, "You, a major of the Tianjun, are so disrespectful, if I, the general of the Tiangong, also go to pay a visit on my own initiative?"

"Will you be behind closed doors?"

"If they have the guts to let Ah Zheng be shut down." Wu Sheng snorted coldly, his eyes showing murderous intent: "Even if you don't allow it, I'm going to exterminate them!"

"When I get shut down, it will be too late to exterminate the barbarians." Wang Zheng thought to himself, but he thought so.

No matter how rich and powerful these two prominent families are, they may not be as important as his face.

His Wangzheng now represents not only himself, but also the entire army, and even the two counties.

If it's really embarrassing, it's too late to vent your anger.

Fortunately, he was already prepared.

"Since you went to visit, they refused to open the door." Wang Zheng tapped his fingers on the desk: "Then let them take the initiative to come to see you, and save a trip in vain."

Ah Zheng, what are you talking about?

Wu Sheng opened his mouth wide, and when he was speechless, he saw that Wang Zheng had turned his head to look at him: "Where is Yan Fu now? How far is it from here?"

"Yes." Wu Sheng nodded hesitantly: "It's placed in the wing of the mansion."

"That's just right." Wang Zheng clapped his hands and said with a smile: "After talking for a long time, I am thirsty. You arrange a personal guard to let our Young Master Yan come to see me, and bring some tea by the way."

"By the way, let Mr. Yan bring it himself."

Yan Fu stared dumbfounded at the scene in front of him, his face full of disbelief.

He was sleeping soundly, but was pulled up by some soldiers for no reason, only saying that General Tiangong wanted to see him and asked him to serve tea and water himself.

Want me to serve tea and water?

I, Yan Fu, am a descendant of Fusheng, from a famous family!

Do you, Shuzi, treat me like a slave?

Yan Fu, who was full of resentment, naturally greeted Wang Zheng's eighteen generations of women in his heart, and at the same time issued countless curses again.

It's just that he never expected that, unlike in the past, not only did the curse come true this time, but it also came so quickly.

When Wang Zheng drank the tea soup, before he could say a word to him, he suddenly pushed down the table and chairs and fell to the ground, which shocked Yan Fu. Then he saw that Wu Sheng stepped towards him in two or three steps, stretched out his hand to hold Wang Zheng lift up.

Seeing that Wang Zheng's face turned pale, it seemed that he was in extreme pain, but in Yan Fu's heart, he was actually very happy.

Of course, on the surface he also showed concern.

It's just that Wang Zheng's next sentence made him feel like a ghost, and countless cold sweats broke out on his forehead instantly.

"There is poison in the tea!"

When he said this, the man actually pointed his halberd at him, his eyes full of anger.

Toxic is poisonous, what are you referring to me for?

When Yan Fu was in a daze, he saw Wang Zheng completely unconscious.

Immediately Wu Sheng rushed forward with a fierce look on his face, kicked him over, and roared at the same time:

"Come here, the general was assassinated by Yan Fuxing!"

"The Yan family is rebellious, arrest them all immediately!"

"Don't let anyone go!"
