What Sun Ce said was true.
If it wasn't for Sun Ce's help today,
If he could only barely open the situation today!
So,
These three drunkards would definitely affect morale!
Perhaps it was these three people who had reduced the Han army's combat strength.
In the end, they still failed to break out of the encirclement.
In the end, they were all annihilated here!
Lu Zhi and Huangfu Song were old friends, but Zhu Rong and Lu Zhi didn't have much contact.
"Changshe is only a day's journey away from the capital. If we were to be wiped out because of the three of you, we might not even be able to protect the capital!" This matter, to put it in a small way, was dereliction of duty. To put it in a big way, it was plotting to murder the emperor! Hmph, let me tell you, we're in big trouble this time!”
Zhang Fei immediately widened his eyes and said in disbelief,"What is it? We only drank a meal of wine, how could we murder the emperor! General Zhu Rong, I saw that your face was as red as Second Brother's, and I had always had a good impression of you. However, I didn't expect you to be a person who lied through your teeth!”
A killing intent immediately appeared in Zhu Rong's eyes, and his right hand was already pressed on the green sword hilt.
Liu Bei immediately rebuked,"Third brother! Shut your mouth!"
He slowed down and sighed again. Suddenly, tears fell from his eyes."Bei was born in the royal family, but he didn't expect that in his generation, he was already poor and could only make a living by selling shoes and weaving mats! Now that the crafty sycophants were in power and the Yellow Turban had risen again, they wanted to kill the enemy and serve the country and restore the glory of their ancestors. Unexpectedly, they were trapped here! It's a pity that I toasted Gaozu yesterday, but I was too drunk to pass out, almost delaying the military aircraft and ruining the event! Since the heavens want to take the life of a descendant of the royal family, then I, Liu Bei, have nothing to say!”
"Hiss!" Zhu Xi suddenly gasped." Liu Bei, make yourself clear. Why are you only a descendant of the emperor? Why are you a descendant of the royal family?" Is it because your surname is Liu?"
Liu Bei's face revealed a hint of arrogance."I am the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan, the great-great-grandson of Emperor Jing of Han! According to seniority, he was of the same generation as the current emperor! My grandfather, Liu Xiong, was elected as a filial and honest official. He was also a well-known figure in the East County!”
" This…" Zhu Rong's expression was grave. He did not know how to deal with Liu Bei.
After all, the members of the royal family were naturally superior. If Liu Bei was really a descendant of the Han Dynasty, then even if he had committed a huge crime, he would not be punished by him or the outer court.
Instead, he wanted to hand it over to Zong Zheng to judge.
Huangfu Song was also frowning, but he soon chuckled and said,""Since you are a descendant of the Imperial Family, why didn't you say so earlier? Otherwise, he wouldn't have been tied up for so long! General Zhu and I are both working for the imperial court. In that case, I will untie you on his behalf!”
Huangfu Song wasn't trying to climb up the social ladder, but as Lu Zhi's student, he naturally had to save Liu Bei if he could. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to meet his old friends in the future.
Moreover, he was on good terms with Zhu Rong and knew that Zhu Rong was a loyal and brave man. He didn't want Zhu Rong to be punished because of this.
Hence, he wanted to reduce the big issue to a small one.
Huangfu Song personally untied Liu Bei. Guan Yu looked relieved. However, when he looked at Zhu Rong, his eyes shone with a sharp light, just like his Green Dragon Crescent Blade, cold and ruthless.
Zhang Fei stretched his body and immediately laughed."Well said, well said. My brother is the most magnanimous. He will definitely not be calculative with the two of you because of this.”
Huangfu Song looked at Liu Bei. Liu Bei brushed off the stains on his sleeves and said calmly,""Bei has always been respectful and courteous. Of course, he won't make things difficult for the two generals. However, was Liu Bei guilty or innocent?”
Huangfu Song immediately chuckled.”
Only then did Liu Bei reveal a faint smile. He immediately cupped his hands and was about to leave.
However, at this moment, Sun Ce sneered and shouted,"Did I let you leave?”
Huangfu Song was immediately shocked and quickly gave Sun Ce a look, telling him not to get into trouble.
Although Zhu Chi hated Liu Bei, he did not want Sun Ce to get into trouble because of this, so he shook his head at Sun Ce.
However, Sun Ce turned a blind eye to this and stared at Liu Bei with disdain.
"May I know how to address this general? The two generals have let me leave. Do you want to overstep your authority and disobey the words of the two generals?”Liu Bei said calmly.
"You don't need to worry about how I address you. However, as the Southern General, I still have the right to ask about your matters.”
"Nanzhong General!" Liu Bei's pupils immediately contracted, revealing a trace of unnoticeable fear. However, this fear was quickly covered by confidence." Didn't you hear? I, Liu Bei, am from the royal family, the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan…"
"You are the great-great-grandson of Emperor Xiao Jing, right?" Sun Ce rudely interrupted him.
"You have no manners. My brother was born in the royal family and was born noble. How can a general like you compare to him? Hurry up and leave, or my big brother will punish you for despising the descendants of the Han Dynasty!”
Zhu Rong, who was beside him, quietly approached him and whispered,""General Sun, disrespecting the royal family is a major crime. If it's light, you'll be dismissed from office. If it's serious, you'll be exiled.”
Sun Ce smiled and shook his head, continuing,""Liu Bei, you said that you are from the royal family, do you have any proof? If you take out the genealogy, your words will still be somewhat credible!”
