Since everyone was laughing.
If you don't smile, then there's something wrong with you.
There was no psychological burden.
After hearing Zhang Song's words of persuading Uncle Liu to lead the army in Yizhou, Zhuge Yi and the two elders, the Crouching Dragon and the Phoenix, laughed happily.
However…
As he laughed…
He couldn't laugh anymore.
Because he realized:
When Zhuge Liang looked at him, his eyes were filled with a thoughtful look.
As for Pang Tong.
When she looked at him, her expression turned into a smile that was not a smile.
Zhuge Yi did not even know if it was his imagination…
He seemed to have seen Imperial Uncle Liu inadvertently glance at him from the main seat. Then, the astonishment on his face flashed past.
Therefore…
Am I exposed?
Was the harmless appearance in front of the city gate a waste?
Zhuge Yi fell into deep thought.
As expected.
He couldn't underestimate the heroes of this era.
If he was not careful, he would be exposed.
Although he felt this way in his heart.
Zhuge Yi, on the other hand, sat upright and listened attentively to Liu Bei's reply to Zhang Song.
"Mr. Yongnian, how dare you!”
"Liu Yizhou is also a relative of the Han clan.”
"How can others be swayed?"
Liu Bei replied in a subtle tone.
First, he rejected it as if he was asking a question. Then, there was a hint of hesitation in his rejection.
Zhuge Yi did not know how Zhang Song felt after hearing this, but his feeling was…
If he was Zhang Song, he would definitely be as powerful as Brother Ru when she saw him naked.
Any moment of hesitation would be a sign of disrespect to the two brothers and a sign of lack of confidence in their own brothers.
As expected.
When Zhang Song heard Liu Bei's words, his voice became even more impassioned.
"Imperial Uncle, you are wrong!"
"I am not betraying my master for glory. Now that I have met a wise duke like Imperial Uncle, I dare not not put in all my effort.”
"Although that Liu Jiyu has the territory of Yizhou, he is weak and cannot use his talents. In addition, Zhang Lu was in the north and often wanted to invade.”
"When people's hearts are scattered, they all want to find a wise master.”
As he spoke, Zhang Song paused, and a trace of hesitation flashed across his face.
"Song, I dare not lie to you. Before I went to Jingzhou, I wanted to submit to Cao Cao. Who knew that the traitor would be so arrogant and arrogant.”
"Therefore, there is a meeting between Song and Ming Gong today.”
"If Ming Gong wants to rule the world, I have Jingzhou but my strength is not enough. I should take Xichuan as my foundation and then move north to Hanzhong.”
"So…"
"Take back the Central Plains and rectify the Heavenly Dynasty. Your name will go down in history and your achievements are expected.”
"At the right time, on the day that Ming Gong takes Xichuan, I am willing to do my best as a spy. I wonder if Ming Gong has any intentions in Xichuan?”
Zhang loosened his heart and explained to him with reason.
In the end, he was just short of kneeling in front of Liu Bei and calling him lord.
Zhuge Yi clicked his tongue in wonder.
How incompetent and mediocre was Liu Zhang to make Zhang Song, a capable man, impatiently choose a wise master to serve?
Zhuge Yi felt that Zhang Song's last question about whether the Ming Gong's intention was in Xichuan was completely in vain.
Other than Zhang Song, who was unsure of Liu Bei's intentions, everyone knew that Liu Bei wanted it more than anyone else.
But it was precisely because he wanted to that Liu Bei could not be too direct.
This was not hypocrisy.
It was…the ways of the world.
Therefore…
Zhuge Yi saw Liu Bei stand up and bow to Zhang Song.
"I am deeply grateful for Zhang Jun's kindness."
"However, Liu Jiyu and Bei are of the same clan. If I attack him, I'm afraid I'll be reviled by the world.”
It was true that Liu Bei was always thinking about Xichuan, but the hesitation on his face could not be faked.
He hesitated.
This was the Han Zhaolie in Zhuge Yi's eyes.
The name of benevolence and righteousness had helped Liu Bei to build up his foundation in Jingzhou, but it had also become a shackle and a tiger in the way for Liu Bei to seize Yizhou.
Zhuge Yi could not say whether Liu Bei's hesitation was right or wrong.
It could only be said that Liu Bei did not realize it at all: He had no choice.
Or rather…
There was no need for Liu Bei to hesitate, because even if he rejected Zhang Song's suggestion, his subordinates would not agree.
They would be like a huge wave, forcefully pushing Liu Bei's Han ship forward.
Zhang Song, who had yet to join Liu Bei's army, might not be able to be a " wanderer ".
But at this moment, he was like a gust of wind.
A gust of western wind blew, causing the waves to become even stronger.
"Imperial Uncle, why do you say that?"
"A real man should work hard to make contributions and hold the whip in front.”
"If we don't take the land of Xichuan Heavenly Territory now, it will be too late to regret if someone else takes it in the future.”
As he spoke, Zhang Song did not give Liu Bei any chance to hesitate.
"Plop!"
Zhang Song stepped out from behind the long table and knelt in front of Liu Bei.
As his hand reached for his chest.
When he reappeared…
At that moment, a scroll appeared in his hand.
It was a map of the 12 counties of Xichuan that Zhang Song had spent three years drawing in private.
At this moment.
Pang Tong was not the only one who widened his eyes.
Even Zhuge Liang.
His breathing quickened.
With their intelligence, it was not difficult for them to guess what Zhang Song was offering.
Even if he couldn't guess it.
The faint lines on the outside of the silk book could also tell them the answer.
This time, Zhuge Yi did not laugh.
Looking at the Crouching Dragon Phoenix who had lost her composure and Liu Bei who had completely lost his composure…
He felt that…
Now, even if it was the Imperial Jade Seal.
In terms of its current value, it was not as rare as this map and silk book to Liu Bei and the other two.
Zhuge Yi knew better.
This time, Liu Bei really could not refuse.
Rejected again.
It would only hurt people's hearts.
