Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

What does this take Li Yi for?

Sensing the change in the eyes of his surroundings, Zhao Yun looked uncomfortable. After all, he had expected it a long time ago, but he couldn't help it. As an envoy, he had to mention Gongsun Zan's request.

After a while, Li Yi drank a cup of tea and said, "General Gongsun's kindness, Li appreciates it, but thank you is unnecessary."

"how is this"

Zhao Yun wanted to answer, but was interrupted by Li Yi, who only heard Li Yi continue: "Qingzhou is Qingzhou of the imperial court, what do you have to do with General Gongsun?"

Zhao Yun choked for a moment. For a shameless person, there are several solutions to this problem, but Zhao Yun is an honest man. Although he knows some things well, how can he say that Qingzhou belongs to Gongsun Zan?

"cough cough"

Seeing that Zhao Yun's face turned red from being suppressed, and I didn't know who it was, I couldn't help laughing, but I immediately realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly coughed to cover it up.

Li Yi glanced to the side, but the voice still made Zhao Yun a little ashamed and angry. Everyone has a temper, so Zhao Yun asked back: "Dare to ask Marquis Xiang, although Marquis Xiang is now a great general, he is still a great general." What is the relationship between Jingzhou Mu, Qingzhou and Xianghou?"

Li Yi chuckled and said: "Of course it doesn't matter, but I have already recommended talented people for the emperor, with Xuzhou Chen Deng and Chen Yuanlong as the governor of Qingzhou, and the emperor trusts me, such small things must be agreed, and Chen governor is worried There are people who disrespect the emperor, despise the laws of the great Han, and interfere in the internal affairs of Qingzhou, so they report to me, the general, and ask me to leave soldiers and horses to protect him until Qingzhou is stable. So, although this matter in Qingzhou has nothing to do with me , but for the sake of the people of Qingzhou, we can only take care of it a little bit."

Zhao Yun's face changed back and forth, and he felt a burst of depression quickly condensed in his chest, but he couldn't vomit it out no matter how hard he tried.

Zhao Yun had never been an envoy before, and thought that what was discussed at the negotiating table was nothing more than reason and interests, but Li Yihua seemed to be talking about reason, but in fact he used power to overwhelm others.

How can he talk about this?

Chapter 731 There are friends coming from afar, and the wine and meat are enough

Zhao Yun was silent for a while, he didn't know how to respond to Li Yi's words.

Before Gongsun Zan came here, someone had told him to give back one step, or even two steps and three steps later, but Li Yi's strong attitude made Zhao Yun feel like he was banging his head against the wall if he continued. I don't know how to talk to Li Yi.

Seeing Zhao Yun's speechless appearance, Li Yi was not proud, but a little upset.

Letting him bully those heroes, such as Cao Cao, is naturally very fulfilling, but Zhao Yun's character design is so good that he is almost a perfect general. Li Yi is not a psychopath, and bullying good people will not add anything to him happy.

Moreover, as his territory became bigger and bigger, as more and more people who should have bloomed in this troubled world disappeared one by one, the remaining people in this world who he could admire were already very few. not enough.

If possible, Li Yi really wants to sell Zhao Yun's face, but he is fighting the world, he can be unscrupulous in small things, but the key things cannot be compromised, not to mention Zhao Yun, even his father-in-law can't do it if he comes to intercede of.

After thinking about some messy things, Li Yi asked Zhao Yun: "General Zhao has something else to say, if not, it's just a good time to put down the business, and I will hold a banquet to welcome General Zhao later."

Zhao Yun thought for a while, then bowed and said, "Thank you, Marquis Xiang, everything will be arranged by Marquis Xiang."

Zhao Yun can naturally feel that Li Yi has no malice towards him.

When he was in embarrassment, the eyes of others looking at him more or less revealed the meaning of "why is this person like this", or "so it's just like that", even though Zhao Yun himself can be regarded as indifferent to fame and wealth, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

But what surprised Zhao Yun was that Li Yi always looked at him with kindness. Although he was speechless when he opened his mouth, Zhao Yun could probably feel that if someone else came, he might have been directly rejected as before. Li Yi was scolded, and Li Yi was notorious for being rude to envoys.

In this way, there are some things he can only wait until Li Yi invites him to dinner.

Li Yi nodded with a smile, then stood up and left. Even if the brief meeting ended, Zhao Yun was entertained by Lu Su and Zhang Xiu.

The main character and the supporting characters have left, but there are many people left in the big tent, especially the generals.

"My lord's vision is naturally unmistakable, but why does this Zhao Yun look a bit unworthy of his name?"

It was Sun Ben who was talking, who was named by Li Yi and placed on the front line of the Yellow River in Yanzhou a few days ago. When Yanzhou took office, he practiced day and night in the barracks, waiting to perform well when he crossed the Yellow River and went north.

Therefore, recently, Sun Ben has a lot of momentum. One looks at him and makes people think that he is a brave general, and he is even better than Zhao Yun in terms of appearance alone.

Xu Huang and Zhang Liao, the two big men in the army, smiled and said nothing, and seemed to be in a good mood.

Because Li Yi is a traverser, he knows a lot about his subordinates, who can be used with confidence, and who must be beaten a lot, and Li Yi's own prestige is too high, no one has the possibility of overpowering the master, so Up to now, Li Yi's people are relatively united regardless of military force, and the high-level people only have different opinions. There has never been a situation where they deliberately suppressed their colleagues, or even more ruthlessly, they simply dug holes for their own people.

But that doesn't mean those people have no selfishness.

Like Xu Huang and Zhang Liao, the relationship between the two is already good, and they know that they will be extremely powerful ministers in the future. Judging by Li Yi's methods, it is difficult for anyone to clearly dominate the other. Naturally, there is no relationship between the two. It is obvious competition, but it has always been sincere cooperation. No one wants to hurt the brotherhood for the little extra profit, let alone make Li Yi feel dissatisfied with them.

It’s just that this kind of honest and cooperative relationship is only limited to them. At most, there will be two Huang Zhong and Dian Wei who are only for Li Yi and don’t care about fame at all. Among the rest of the people, if anyone can threaten their position , although the two of them will not stumble, they still need to be vigilant.

Fortunately, among the people Li Yi received before, whether it was Zhang Xiu, Xu Chu, Tai Shici, etc., none of them could pose a threat to their status, so they naturally didn't care, but Zhao Yun was different. People who start to praise in official career.

It can be considered that Li Yi is more optimistic about Zhao Yun than the two of them, so they really have to care about Zhao Yun's arrival.

What if Li Yi was so excited that he promoted Zhao Yun quickly, and within a few days he was on an equal footing with them, and even Li Yi became enraged, so he simply worshiped Zhao Yun?

If that happens, although they don't dare to complain, they will definitely feel uncomfortable. Many generals below will also be dissatisfied. In other words, they obviously didn't mean to be emotional, so they were relieved, and secretly praised their lord for being wise and powerful.

Therefore, when they heard Sun Ben's words belittling Zhao Yun, although they would not agree, they would definitely not stop him.

"Indeed, my lord can't be mistaken, but I heard that Zhao Yun has been the master book under Gongsun Zan for more than a year. Unlike the master Lu Wenhou who led the troops back then, the master Zhao Yun is really in charge of the accounts. Tsk, General White Horse, you can think about this way of living, even if Zhao Yun is a real fierce general, after a long time, his energy and spirit will be exhausted."

It was Su Fei who answered, and his words were to the point, and many people nodded in agreement.

At this time, Tai Shici suddenly asked: "Since Zhao Yun has no ambitions in Hebei, wouldn't it be beautiful to take this opportunity to join the Lord?"

Tai Shici spoke from the bottom of his heart. When he saw Zhao Yun, he felt sympathetic. How depressed he was following Kong Rong at the beginning, and Zhao Yun's life was even more aggrieved than him. This really made Tai Shici feel sympathetic. Heart,

This time, no one answered. Zhang Liao originally wanted to speak, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget it. He was just worried that Li Yi would promote Zhao Yun, but it was not because he was jealous of talents, and he didn't want to see Li Yi recruiting talents.

Moreover, Zhao Yun's attitude is very subtle, and he doesn't seem to have any intention of getting close to Li Yi. Dull?

Several people looked at each other, and finally their eyes fell on Xun You who was still sorting out the books.

Sensing the eyes of the generals, Xun You put down his things and said with a smile, "What are the generals looking at me for? Xun knows Zhao Yun, but he is far inferior to the generals."

Zhang Liao poured a glass of wine and handed it to Xun You, saying, "Mr. is resourceful and has been praised by the lord many times. If you don't know about this, who else would know?"

Zhang Liao was very polite. Compared with Kuai Yue, who became more and more dogmatic, Xun You, the second-in-command in the army, was obviously more liked by these generals.

Xun You is an official, in fact, he likes it far more than these generals, and he is also better at thinking about Li Yi's ideas, but he usually doesn't say it, because it is easy to make taboos, but today he watched these generals fight with great intentions, and after thinking about it for a while, he sighed: "Although Zhao Zilong has the qualifications of a famous general, how could he be misunderstood by the mediocre lord, just like the two generals Zhang and Xu, if they hadn't followed the lord, what would happen now? So, it's a pity, it's a pity."

After Xun You said that, he carried his things and left, leaving a group of generals looking at Zhang Liao and Xu Huang enviously.

Maybe Zhao Yun is really outstanding, but he is unlucky, so what?

On the other side, Lu Su and Zhang Xiu took Zhao Yun away under the pretext of resting, but in fact, it was Li Yi who asked them to test Zhao Yun's attitude.

"Zilong, since he was not happy in Hebei, this time he went south, he happened to submit to the lord, and followed the lord to make contributions and achieve a great reputation. Wouldn't it be a hundred times better than Youzhou to confer his wife Yinzi in the future?"

"Although you and I are just meeting each other for the first time, and we won't have time to discuss each other in the future, but I heard from my lord that your marksmanship attainment is the true teaching of the old master, and you are even better than me. I will naturally believe what my lord said. Just think about it, the two of my brothers and sisters will be left and right vanguards under the lord's command, protect the lord to climb up, ahem, protect the lord to sweep the world, it must be a good talk in the future!"

"You don't know, but I envy you very much. I think I moved the capital back then. Alas, I'm ashamed to say that senior brother was beaten all the way from Luoyang to Chang'an by the lord. The feeling is really hard to describe in words. Even if I think about it, I feel a little scared At that time, if the lord was not merciful, the brother's life would have been confessed there, and now being able to serve under the lord's command is entirely due to the virtues of the ancestors."

"But Zilong, you are different. My lord has not entered Luoyang, and I praised you in front of the princes of the world. My lord's eyesight is well known in the world, but when it comes to praise, even the two generals Zhang and Xu can't compete with you." Compared to you, with this opportunity, and with Zilong's ability, I will rely on you to take care of me as a senior brother in the future!"

Zhang Xiu kept his lips up and down, and Lu Su accompanied him with a smile, but Zhao Yun, who was caught between the two, only had a wry smile on his face.
