After the court meeting ended, he specially ordered people to publicize what had happened.
In the posthouse, the boorish Zhang Fei rushed into Guan Yu's room.""Not good, something bad has happened!"
Guan Yu held the military book in his hand and gently combed his long beard. He said calmly,"Third brother, how many times have I told you to be calm when faced with things? Big brother is currently in the court discussing how to acknowledge his ancestors. Once it is confirmed, he will be the imperial uncle of the current emperor. As big brother's brother, aren't you making a fool of yourself by being so impatient?!”
Guan Yu felt that it was necessary to teach Zhang Fei a lesson. After all, he was a butcher.
Zhang Fei was speechless.
Big Brother, the sky has collapsed, and you're still daydreaming?
Did he really not care about what was happening outside?
When Zhang Fei saw his calm appearance, he was furious. You have to wait for the right time to act, right?
"Second brother, big brother's identity as imperial uncle is fake. Now, it has spread throughout Xuchang City. Big brother has also been thrown into prison by Tian Zi!”
" What?!"
Guan Yu's eyes widened. His first reaction was disbelief."Impossible! It must be Cao Cao's trick!"
Ever since he got to know Liu Bei, he called himself the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan. He took it as his duty to help the Han Dynasty. It was easy to deceive him for a while, but it was difficult to deceive him forever.
It must be the Cao thief who plotted to kill Big Brother!
"Second brother, you're wrong about Cao Cao!”
"If Cao Cao hadn't pleaded for mercy and said that he wanted to investigate Big Brother's identity, Big Brother's head would have already fallen to the ground!" Zhang Fei said solemnly.”
Guan Yu: ”
Zhang Fei's explanation stunned Guan Yu. He felt like his worldview was about to be overturned.
Liu Bei was the person he admired the most. He was known for his benevolence and righteousness. He was a person who planned for the people and the country. How could he pretend to be the Imperial Uncle and do such a thing to deceive the Emperor?
As for Cao Cao?
He felt that this evil man was no less than Dong Zhuo, yet he was able to use the emperor to order the princes around.
However, during these days in Xuchang, the surrounding people praised Cao Cao for his kindness to the world.
Not only did they implement the policy of tax exemption, which was beneficial to the country and the people, but they also developed the Jiangdong plow, which was a farming tool that benefited the people, greatly saving manpower.
Now, he was actually so fair and strict, protecting his competitor against public opinion?!
Was this still the Cao Cao he knew?
"I didn't expect Prime Minister Cao to be such a righteous person. Have I really wronged him all these years?”
Guan Yu muttered to himself. Then, he frowned and asked in confusion,"No, if big brother is really an imposter, why would he dare to enter the palace to confront him?”
This was illogical.
"Second brother, I heard that someone secretly changed the royal family's genealogy!”
Zhang Fei scratched his head and recalled Liu Bei's actions over the past few days."Ever since Eldest Brother came to Xuchang, didn't he often interact with the attendants in the palace?”
"I'm afraid it's to secretly change the genealogy!”
When Guan Yu heard this, his eyes widened as he looked at Zhang Fei.""Nonsense, why would big brother do such a thing?! Even if it was to secretly change the genealogy, it was Cao Cao's doing!”
"Second brother, if it was Cao Cao, why didn't big brother enter the palace to confront him?”
Zhang Fei sorted out his thoughts and had an 'I understand' expression."Second Brother, think about it. Xuchang is Cao Cao's lair. If he wants to change the genealogy, it's easy. When he reported the achievements of Xu Prefecture last time, Cao Cao could have framed Eldest Brother!”
"But he didn't. After expressing his contributions to Xuzhou, Big Brother can leave and take up his post in Xuzhou!”
"However, Big Brother refused to leave.”
" Why do you think this is?!"
Guan Yu looked at Zhang Fei in complete shock. Was this still the Third Brother he was familiar with?
How could he be so orderly?
"Third brother's meaning is…big brother is waiting for an opportunity to change the genealogy, and then enter the palace to recognize his relatives, completely confirming his identity as a relative of the imperial family!”
"Yes, otherwise, I wouldn't be able to understand why Eldest Brother wouldn't leave. Second Brother, what do you think?”
Guan Yu couldn't figure it out.
They had also finished showing their contributions in the battle of Xu Prefecture, and they were not under house arrest.
Liu Bei did not want to leave. The reason he had been telling the two of them was to wait for the emperor to summon them. He wanted to check the genealogy and confirm his identity as a relative of the imperial family so that the three brothers could show off their skills in the future!
"I, I don't know either."
Guan Yu's head was like a paste. He closed his eyes with difficulty and sighed, not knowing what to do.
"Second brother, since Cao Cao can clearly investigate this matter, why don't we go and ask him?" Zhang Fei suggested.”
Guan Yu pondered for a moment before nodding.”
Just as the two of them were making a decision, a servant's voice came from outside the door.
"Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Prime Minister Cao summons.”
Hearing this, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei looked at each other.
"Second brother, do you want to bring weapons?"
Guan Yu was speechless.
"If Prime Minister Cao has ill intentions, he can just send someone to interrogate him. Why would he need to summon him?”
Guan Yu stroked his long beard and suddenly said,
"So what if it's a Hongmen Banquet? Would you and I be afraid?”
"Hahaha, second brother is right!”
Just as Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were heading to the Prime Minister's residence with their heads held high.
In the main hall of the residence.
Guo Yunzheng swept his wise gaze across the strategists present and finally landed on Guo Jia."Big brother, tell me honestly, did you come up with the plan to harm the people of Qingzhou with the poisonous salt in Guanzhong?”
The few of them shook their heads like rattles.
"What do you think?"
"Isn't it shocking?" Cao Cao smiled mysteriously.”
"Shocking the world?"
"How stupid!"
