Jia Renlu watched Cao Jing leave and was stunned on the spot. His heart was filled with mixed feelings. Just as he was in a daze, he suddenly heard Diao Chan say,"Renlu, Cao Jing is a good girl. She also wants to be with you. Why did you reject her?”
Jia Renlu puffed out his chest." A mature, steady, and tangible man like me has unlimited charm." There were plenty of inexperienced little girls like Cao Jing. As long as I stand there, there will be a lot of people who are willing to marry me. I will take care of each and every one of them. Besides, we're not Shanxi's aged vinegar factory. We don't need you to make so much vinegar to sell…Ah!”
Diao Chan pinched him hard and said,""Don't be so serious. Seriously, aren't you tempted?”
"You're lying if you're not moved!" Jia Renlu said. Are you satisfied now? Where is the washboard? I'll kneel down first, lest you punish me later.”
Diao Chan snorted and said,"At least you're honest. I'll let you off." I'm serious. Why did you reject him? Just because he's Cao Cao's daughter?”
Jia Renlu sighed and said,"Cao Cao and I are already like fire and water. If she really follows me, she will suffer." Once Cao Cao and Liu Bei fought, which side would she stand on? Let her go. She won't be able to see me. It'll be fine after a while.”
"Cao Cao harmed you so much, yet you still helped him?" The three pieces of advice you gave just now were so good. If he followed all of them, he would not be easy to deal with.”
Jia Renlu looked up to the sky and sighed." Alas, Cao Cao is truly an extraordinary person. Even if we were enemies with him, we still have to respect him." These three pieces of advice were his repayment for taking care of me for the past two months. Besides, he might not do what I said.”
"Why?" Diao Chan asked.
Jia Renlu said," People are very strange. Success is clearly right in front of us, but we often miss it because of carelessness. There were not many people in history who won without being arrogant. Cao Cao was no exception. After a few victories, he no longer listened to harsh advice. He only liked to listen to flattery like 'no one can match the Prime Minister.' Do you think he would still remember what I said today? I don't know where he had forgotten. So I have to take this as a warning. If you see me being too proud in the future, you have to persuade me.”
Diao Chan nodded." I will. If you don't listen to me then, I'll…" She reached out to pinch him.
Jia Renlu quickly dodged to the side and thought,""This is great. I definitely won't be able to be proud in the future…"
The next day, Jia Renlu, Liu Bei, Guan Yu and the others were discussing military affairs in the tent. Xu Shu led Chen Deng to the central tent to see Liu Bei. When he saw Jia Renlu, he was overjoyed and greeted him,"Brother, I finally see you again. How have you been?”
"Good!" Jia Renlu said. Good! Let's get down to business first. How's the situation in Xuzhou?”
"Yuanlong has urgent military intelligence to report to you."”
"Please speak, Yuanlong," said Liu Bei.
"Cao Cao heard that Imperial Uncle had defeated Yuan Shu and will soon come to Xuzhou. He secretly ordered Che Zhou, the governor of Xuzhou, to plot against Imperial Uncle," Chen Deng said. Che Zhou and I discussed the strategy. I asked him to ambush the soldiers at the edge of the barbican city. Once you pass, I will kill him. Che Zhou has already acted according to the plan, Ming Gong this trip should be extremely careful!”
Liu Bei said,"If it weren't for Yuanlong, my life would be over!" He couldn't stay here for long, so Yuan Long quickly went back to avoid Che Zhou's suspicion.”
"That's right. I'll take my leave now."”He bowed and left in a hurry.
Liu Bei asked,"Renlu, how should we deal with this matter?"”
Jia Renlu glanced at Guan Yu stroking his long beard and sneered, as if he had already made up his mind. He said,"Yunzhang has already made a plan, you can ask him.”
"Oh, what do you think, Second Brother?" Liu Bei asked.”
Zhang Fei was eager to kill and shouted,"What's the point of discussing this matter? Just use me as the vanguard and charge into the city!”
Liu Bei frowned and said," This matter doesn't need you. Don't spout nonsense. Listen to your second brother."”
"Tomorrow," said Guan Yu,"we will enter the city at night and have our soldiers disguise themselves as Cao Cao's soldiers. They will pretend that Wen Yuan is coming to meet them. Then they will lead their chariots out of the city to meet them. I will kill him.”
"I'm afraid I'll anger Cao Cao. If he comes in person, how can we welcome him?" Liu Bei asked.”
"Whether Che Zhou dies or not is the same," Jia Renlu said."As long as General gets Xuzhou, Cao Cao will not let him go.”
"Then how should we welcome him?" asked Liu Bei.”
Zhang Fei continued," Big brother is afraid of Cao Cao, but I'm not. If Cao Cao comes, I'll take him on myself. I guarantee that I'll be able to pick him off his horse with a spear!"”
Jia Renlu spat out a mouthful of blood and said,""Fighting against Cao Cao is not the best martial arts competition in the world. If you don't use your Yi De, you can go rest in the camp first.”He thought to himself, I definitely can't let Zhang Fei participate in the military meeting next time, or else I'll have to live a few years less!”
Liu Bei said,"Renlu is right. Third brother, please retreat!"”
Zhang Fei glared at Jia Renlu and walked out of the tent in a fit of pique. Jia Renlu said,""We can use the things on Yuan Zhi's body to repel Cao Cao. Yuanzhi, don't hide it anymore. Hurry up and take it out for me to see.”
"What is it?" Xu Shu asked mysteriously. I don't have it on me."
Jia Renlu's eyes widened." Xu Yuanzhi, you're really something. How dare you challenge me?" Beep! Hurry up and take it out, or else we'll deal with it according to military law!”After saying that, he rushed forward and wanted to search her.
"Don't search," Xu Shu said."I'm ticklish. That thing isn't on me."”
"Then where?" Jia Renlu shouted.
"It's on Ru Yan. She said it was very beautiful and asked me to give it to her for safekeeping."”
Jia Renlu said," F * ck, you also have tracheitis. You're already like this before you're even married. If you're married, why don't you go to bed?" Quickly summon her into the tent!"
"I don't need you to tell me, I'm here!" Zhao Ruyan shouted.”With that, he stepped into the tent.
Jia Renlu was burning with anxiety.”
"No!" Zhao Ruyan said.
"Yuanzhi, you should do something about it too!" Jia Renlu said.”
Xu Shu said,"Ru Yan, Ming Gong is not allowed to cause trouble here. Quickly take it out."”
"Duke Ming, I want to ask you something." Zhao Ruyan said.”
Liu Bei shook his head and smiled bitterly." Ruyan, please speak. I will agree to whatever you say."”
Zhao Ruyan pointed at Jia Renlu and said,""He beat me up in Xu City. I can take it out today, but he has to kneel down and beg me!”
"Damn, when did that happen? You still remember?" Jia Renlu asked. Great aunt, I beg you, stop fooling around and take it out.”
"Since Renlu offended Lady Zhao, I apologize to you on his behalf."”After saying that, he went forward to bow and apologize.
Xu Shu quickly rushed forward and stopped Liu Bei. He turned around and shouted,""Ru Yan, don't mess around. Quickly take it out!”
"I'll spare you, you don't have to kneel." However, I still have to punish you. If you can tell me the origin of this item, I'll take it out.”
Jia Renlu laughed and said," It's just the Heshi jade. You've asked. I may not know anything else, but the origin of this item is not difficult for me." I'll say it now. Listen and see if it's right.”
"During the Spring and Autumn Period, there was an expert named Bian He in the State of Chu. He obtained a piece of jade and presented it to King Li of Chu. King Li of Chu summoned the jade worker to look at the jade. The jade worker replied,"Stone!" King Li of Chu was furious and used Bian He to deceive the emperor, so he dislocated his left leg. After the death of King Li of Chu, the new king, King Wen of Chu, ascended the throne. Bian He went to offer jade with a walking stick. King Wen of Chu also asked the jade worker to come and see. The jade worker said it was stone. King Wen of Chu did not stand on ceremony and dislocated Bian He's right leg. Pitiful Bian He had lost two legs and became a first-class cripple. He didn't have a wheelchair and couldn't go anywhere. He could only hug that piece of jade and cry at the foot of Jing Mountain. Crying for three days and three nights in a row, the degree of sorrow was not any worse than Meng Jiangnu crying at the Great Wall. Legend has it that her tears dried up and even blood flowed out. How pitiful! King Wen of Chu pitied him and took the jade. He ordered the jade-maker to cut it open and found a rare jade. He made it into a jade and named it 'He Shi Bi'.”
"During the Warring States Period, King Wei of Chu bestowed the jade to him because of his great contribution to the destruction of Yue by his prime minister, Zhaoyang. When Zhaoyang invited a friend to a banquet, she invited him to look at the jade, but it was stolen. Someone framed Zhang Yi for stealing it. Zhao Yang beat Zhang Yi half to death, but she couldn't find the jade. Zhang Yi hated the State of Chu because of this. Later, Zhang Yi became the Minister of Qin and beat the State of Chu several times, causing the King of Chu to lose hundreds of miles of land. In a fit of anger, he killed Zhao Yang.”
"After the Heshi jade was stolen, it came to Zhao and was obtained by King Huiwen of Zhao. King Zhaoxiang of Qin wanted to use fifteen cities to cheat the jade. After Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, he got the jade and made it into a national jade seal. He ordered Li Si to make seal characters: "I have been ordered by the heavens to live forever." Eight characters are written on it. Gaozu was famous in Guanzhong. After obtaining this seal, it had always been the national treasure of the Han family. When Wang Mang ascended the throne, he had once entered the palace to force the seal from the Empress Dowager. In a fit of anger, the Empress Dowager had no time to discuss the matter and used the jade seal as a brick to smash Wang Mang. Wang Mang fainted on the spot, and a corner of the jade seal broke and was inlaid with gold. When Emperor Guangwu revived, this seal returned to the Han Dynasty and has been handed down to this day. Now that everyone knows about this, there's no need to waste my saliva.”
Zhao Ruyan giggled as she listened. After he finished, she said,""Hehe, why does it sound so awkward when it comes from your mouth? However, it was even more detailed than Yuan Zhi.”
"Haha, of course!" Jia Renlu laughed. Who am I? "I've been knowledgeable since I was young. I've learned from ancient and modern times. I've known for 300 years and 500 years. There's nothing in the world that I don't know. I…" Before the cow could finish bragging, his mouth was wide open. His expression was dull and he could no longer speak.
Zhao Ru Yan took out the Imperial Seal from her bosom, and in an instant, the entire camp was filled with a five-colored light that was exceptionally dazzling. Everyone present was tongue-tied, staring blankly at the seal, only to see that the seal was four inches in circumference and engraved with five dragons. There was a corner missing on the side, and it was inlaid with gold. There were eight characters in seal script on it, which read,"I have been ordered by heaven to live forever."”
Jia Renlu stammered,"Ming…Gong, this seal…can I…touch it?"”
Liu Bei was stunned for a long time before he said,"This item was obtained by relying on benevolence and fortune. Why not?"”
Jia Renlu carefully took the Heshi jade and held it in his hands. He played with it for a long time, but it felt cold to the touch and very comfortable."I strongly request to be reborn! What a huge loss. If this thing were to reach the modern era, it would be a huge profit! I'll become a billionaire in no time, with famous cars and beautiful women.”Thinking of this, he touched it for a while before handing it over to Liu Bei reluctantly.
Liu Bei took it and handed it over to Guan Yu,""This item cannot be kept by anyone other than Yun Chang. From now on, it will be kept with second brother. Remember, this item is related to the revival of the great cause and cannot be lost.”
Guan Yu took it carefully and said with a serious expression,""Big brother, don't worry. If it's placed in my place, I will definitely treat it as my life.”
Jia Renlu nodded." It's indeed safe to leave Yu Yunchang." By the way, Yuanzhi, how did you get this seal?”
Xu Shu shook his head and smiled bitterly. He took out a note from his bosom and handed it to Jia Renlu. Jia Renlu opened it and saw that it was the one he had secretly stuffed into Guan Yu's hand when he pretended to be crazy that day. On it were five big words: "True and false Heshi jade." At that time, because he did not understand the characters of the Three Kingdoms, he asked Diao Chan to write down that seemingly nonsense. From it, he took out these words and handed them to Guan Yu.
"You, you!" Xu Shu said. It's my bad luck to have you as my brother! But after you handed over the note, you acted as if nothing had happened and hid at the side, pretending to be crazy. But it took me a lot of effort to get this thing!”
