Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle

Along the way, Zhang Ji did not stop at all and rode at full speed towards Chang'an.

Now, he had no other thoughts in his mind. He just wanted to come to Chang'an City as soon as possible to apologize to Uncle Liu.

Whether in Luoyang or Chang'an, he did many wrong things. If Uncle Liu were to investigate, any one of them would cost him his life.

Since you want to surrender, you naturally have to have a surrender attitude. Only in this way can you preserve your position.

He made up his mind that he must leave a good impression on Uncle Liu when they met for the first time.

Only by gaining Liu Yu's complete trust could he achieve great achievements and be appointed a general and be granted a title of nobility as Jia Xu said that day.

As a military general, who doesn't want to be granted a title of nobility in the Han Dynasty?

Back then, a young general brought Fenghou to a new level, and since then, Fenghou has been radiating dazzling light.

At the same time, there was a general with outstanding martial arts skills, who ended up in obscurity with the regret of never being able to be promoted in his lifetime.

All these contributed to the Han generals' obsession with becoming marquises.

After a period of travel, Zhang Ji arrived at Liu Yu's residence.

With his upper body naked and a cane on his back, he knelt at Liu Yu's door and begged for forgiveness.

When Liu Yu heard the soldier's report, he was a little confused. He didn't understand why Zhang Ji did this.

He walked quickly to the gate of the mansion, looked at Zhang Ji with his upper body naked, and grabbed him.

"General Zhang, why are you doing this?"

When Zhang Ji saw Liu Yu holding him, tears welled up in his eyes.

"Uncle, I followed Dong Zhuo and committed many mistakes. I came here today to ask you to punish me."

After saying this, tears fell like rain, and the tears flowed down his stubbled face like free beads.

Then he had a sad expression, as if he was in great pain, and some body movements matched his expression.

It seemed that if Liu Yu did not punish him, he would die immediately in front of him.

Looking at Zhang Ji's exaggerated expression, Liu Yu wanted to laugh.

Since you knew you wanted to win him over, why would you punish him?

This old fox, with such an exaggerated performance, is he trying to test his own reaction?

Liu Yu was somewhat speechless watching his exaggerated performance. He thought that in this era, his performance had reached perfection and reached the pinnacle.

Unexpectedly, there is always someone better than you. Zhang Ji's expressive performance clearly surpassed himself.

Even though I have seen the actors' performances, I couldn't help but secretly admire Zhang Ji's performance.

It's so classic. The cries of grief and the body language performance make people cry.

The two soldiers standing in front of him were completely moved by Zhang Ji's performance. Tears appeared on their faces.

It has to be said that Zhang Ji's acting skills are outstanding. If he were born in the future, he would definitely be a performing artist.

The series of continuous performances were completely natural and smooth, not to mention that they instantly outperformed the young actors of later generations, and even the veteran actors who are famous for their acting skills can hardly compare to him.

Liu Yu hesitated a little, wondering if he should respond to Zhang Ji's performance in order to justify his hard work.

Liu Yu had a complicated expression, staring into the distance, and said slowly: "The culprit of the rebellion in Chang'an and Luoyang was Dong Zhuo. General Zhang obeyed military orders, so what was wrong with that?"

Hearing Liu Yu's affirmative words, Zhang Ji raised his head and saw Liu Yu's determined eyes, and he felt relieved.

"Uncle, although I obeyed Dong Zhuo's orders, it was because I could not distinguish between loyalty and treachery, good and evil, that I committed so many wrong things. If you do not punish me, I will feel uneasy."

After a long time, Liu Yu finally understood that Zhang Ji put in such an strenuous performance because he was afraid that he would take revenge on him later.

Well, since that’s the case, Liu Yu can only perform according to his intentions.

"General Zhang, if that is the case, I will fine you one year's salary. You should take this as a warning and never do it again. If you dare to do it again, you will be severely punished."

In this era, the so-called salary deduction is nothing more than a formality. How many people who can reach such a high position rely on salary for their livelihood?

Liu Yu did this just to appease Zhang Ji.

After hearing these words, Zhang Ji stopped crying instantly.

Liu Yu sighed in his heart, how can these be tears? They are just like a faucet that can be turned off at any time.

With Liu Yu's help, Zhang Ji stood up.

"Thank you, uncle, for your generosity. From now on, I will do my best under your command and obey your orders. If I break this oath, I will be killed by both humans and gods."

Liu Yu smiled and looked at Zhang Ji and said, "I have taken note of what General Zhang said. From now on, you and I will work together to support the Han Dynasty."

"I will obey the orders of my lord."

Zhang Ji was about to bow again, but was stopped by Liu Yu.

"General Zhang, please follow me into the house. We will not stop until we are drunk today."

Having said that, he took his hand and walked inside.

"Uncle, I have an unwelcome request. Please grant me your permission."

"But it doesn't matter."

"I heard from Xiu'er that there is a place in Chang'an City that makes delicious steamed buns. I want to go and try them."

After Zhang Xiu returned to Hongnong County, he praised Liu Yu and also praised the steamed bun shop.

According to his description, it was not a steamed bun shop at all. It was simply an elixir from heaven.

After Zhang Ji arrived in Chang'an, he wanted to taste the steamed buns, but he was afraid that he would be impolite if he did not meet Liu Yu immediately.

Now that his allegiance to Liu Yu has been finalized, he can finally feel relieved.

When he heard that Liu Yu was going to host a banquet, he told Liu Yu about his request.

Steamed bun shop?

Liu Yu pondered for a moment and understood the meaning of his words.

No need to ask, it must be Zhang Xiu who talked about the deliciousness of that steamed bun shop after returning to Hongnong County.

"Okay, since you want to eat, I'll take you there."

Several people walked all the way from the mansion to the steamed bun shop.

The road was bustling with people coming and going, and it was very lively.

Ever since Zhang Ji entered Chang'an, there has been a constant look of surprise in his eyes.

He carefully checked the situation in Chang'an City and realized that what Zhang Xiu said was true.

Is this... still the Chang'an City he knows?

Fear and worry have disappeared from the faces of the people in Chang'an, replaced by a peaceful smile.

If someone had told Zhang Ji when Dong Zhuo came to power that Chang'an would be so prosperous in the near future, he would never have believed it.

The two of them walked along the bluestone road in Chang'an City and came to the steamed bun shop.

Looking at the long queue, Zhang Ji's expectations inexplicably became heavier.

Zhang Ji swallowed his saliva as he smelled the fragrance of the steamed buns in the air.

Zhang Ji smiled when he thought about eating the soft and sweet steamed buns soon.

Who knew what happened next would make his eyes pop out.

Chen Dao didn't wait for Liu Yu's instructions, he just stood at the end of the line and started queuing.

What's going on? Zhang Ji rubbed his eyes.
