Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 415 Yi Ji and Liu Bei

"Liu Shijun, it's been a long time."

Inside the building in Xinye, Yi Ji bowed and said respectfully, with an extremely thoughtful attitude and etiquette.

"Mr. Yiji has come here from afar, so I am prepared to welcome you!" Accompanied by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Liu Bei walked into the building, and when they met, he warmly bowed his hands and saluted with an expression of guilt.

Yi Ji hurried forward a few steps, hugged Liu Bei who was about to bow and salute, and suddenly felt a strong force coming from him, knowing that Liu Bei sincerely bowed down, he couldn't help being moved a little more in his heart.

As one of the many civil servants in Jingzhou, Yi Ji was not considered prominent among the Jingzhou officials, and his status was only moderate.

Naturally, there is often a sense of underappreciated talent.

But in Liu Bei's place, every time Yiji comes here, he feels like a spring breeze.

Although there are often rumors and rumors in the outside world that Liu Xuande and Uncle Liu Huang are an out-and-out hypocrite, at least in Yi Ji's opinion.

Even if Liu Bei is really a hypocrite, and he can pretend to such a degree, it is not a loss for him to be fooled.

Thinking of this, Yiji thought of his mission here, and couldn't help but strengthen his previous determination.

Although Liu Bei had already learned about Yiji's intentions from Zhang Fei, it was nothing more than sending an order for Liu Biao to lead his troops to Changbanpo, where he joined Cai Mao and the others.

Go north to attack Yuzhou.

But in front of Yiji, Liu Bei still pretended to be ignorant, hugged Yiji's arms with a smile, and said, "I don't know if Mr. Yiji is coming to Xinye this time, but what orders does Master Zhou have?" ?"

Yiji had been to Xinye a few times before, and he was delivering orders for Liu Biao, so Liu Bei preconceived that he was delivering orders for Liu Biao, and Yiji didn't have much doubt in his heart.

How did he know that this seemingly loyal and benevolent Liu Shijun had already started to let his two brothers secretly arrange troops to inquire about the news in Xiangyang city as early as last year.

Whenever there is any trouble in Xiangyang City, someone will come to report it.

Compared to being well-informed, Liu Bei must be better than Yi Ji!

However, Yi Ji's original intention was not to tell Liu Bei that he was going to go north with Cai Mao, but to look seriously at the servants around the building.

Liu Bei immediately understood and raised his hand. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei immediately took a step forward and told the servants to leave separately and not to approach behind the building.

Only then did Liu Bei and Yi Ji enter the building together.

The two had just sat down as guest and host, and Yi Ji, who wanted to persuade Liu Bei to leave Xinye as soon as possible, could no longer bear the anxiety in his heart, and said eagerly: "Liu Shijun, the matter is urgent, please lead the troops as soon as possible. Leave Xinye and find another way out!"

Liu Bei was taken aback by Yi Ji's words, although he was deep in thought, he couldn't help but pause for a moment, wondering what happened to Yi Ji who suddenly came over to say these words.

At the same time, he sighed in his heart that it was lucky that Zhang Fei was not here at the moment, otherwise he might have misunderstood that the person in charge had leaked the news. Their plan to march eastward to Yizhou had already happened.

With Zhang Fei's temperament, if he really thought so, I'm afraid Yiji would not be able to leave the building alive.

Fortunately, Liu Bei calmed down quickly, looked at Yi Ji and said sincerely: "Sir, what did Bei do to make Mr. say such a thing?"

Yi Ji slapped his thigh, sighed and said, "Mr. Xuande, do you really not know, or do you pretend that you don't know? Then Cai Hao already knew about Xuande's persuasion of Jing Shengli's persuasion, and he has long held a grudge against Xuande. Now, General Cai Mao is leading his troops northward into Yuzhou, and he specially asked Jing Sheng to send an order for Duke Xuande to go northward with him."

Seeing Liu Bei still blinking his eyes and pretending to be innocent, Yi Ji felt quite helpless.

But now he has revealed the news to this point, and he doesn't mind explaining his words: "Cai Mao is the commander-in-chief of the army. At that time, Duke Xuande will definitely obey his orders. If he wants to kill you, he must find someone to kill you." A pretext? So, I came here specially to persuade Lord Xuande to lead his troops out of Xinye as soon as possible, no matter where he goes, it will be a hundred thousand times better than staying under Jing Sheng's command!"

Hearing this, Liu Bei finally came to his senses, this Yiji had his heart on him, and ran over to report the news.

Because of the appearance of the butterfly Yuan Tan, Liu Bei's life in Jingzhou was so comfortable, and there was no such thing as Lu Ma jumping over Tanxi.

But I don't know whether it is Liu Bei's ambition or Liu Bei's personal character. After all, he is still involved in the vortex of Liu Biaoli's heir.

And because of this, Cai Mao was severely offended.

Therefore, when Yi Ji explained, Liu Bei smiled helplessly in his heart.

Originally, he thought that he could prepare for his eastward march to Yizhou for a while, but now it seems that if he really dares to delay and stay in Xinye without sending troops, it is estimated that Cai Mao will definitely use this as an excuse without hesitation.

Cut Liu Bei's head off, he has nothing to reason with!

"Mr. Yiji came here to pass on the kindness of the news. I, Liu Beiming, feel very grateful. Thank you, sir!"

Liu Bei immediately stood up and bowed deeply to Yi Ji, who also quickly stood up and returned the bow.

If it was placed before, Yi Ji would definitely accept such a gift from Liu Bei, but the situation is different now.

Yi Ji had already figured it out when he came to report the news. Instead of continuing to hang around under Liu Biao, it would be better to take refuge under a lord with ambition and potential.

Even if you die, you can die vigorously.

Instead of staying in Jingzhou, living a life that can almost be seen at a glance.

Therefore, he seemed quite embarrassed by Liu Bei's salute, and after quickly bowing to return the salute, he asked, "I don't know where Liu Shijun is going?"

Hearing Yi Ji's question, Liu Bei's heart skipped a beat, and when he looked at Yi Ji, there was a bit of scrutiny in his eyes.

Feeling the change in Liu Bei's gaze, Yi Ji didn't take it seriously, instead he cupped his hands frankly and said, "To tell you the truth, Yi Ji had long wanted to follow the envoy, but the envoy was like a hidden dragon in the abyss before, sending him under the fence. , Yiji stays under Jingsheng's tent, but if he has information, he can inform the envoy in time, and now the envoy is going, if you don't mind, Yiji is willing to follow the envoy, lead the horse and drop the pedal!"

Hearing Yiji's words, Liu Bei was overjoyed.

Right now, his subordinates lacked nothing but those who could serve as counselors.

Not to mention Mi Zhu, he is an accounting talent, and doing business and doing tax statistics is already his limit.

Wanting Mi Zhu to govern the internal affairs is purely a disaster for the people of Xinye.

As for Jian Yong and Sun Qian, they are both Liu Bei's fellow villagers and have some abilities, but since they can play with Liu Bei, their education is naturally quite limited.

On the contrary, it is Yiji. Although the Yi family is not well-known in Jingzhou, it is also a real noble family!
And Yiji is the most orthodox scholar in this era, who has grown up with a complete Confucian classic education!
