"Governor Zhang, are you sure you want to stand on Cao Cao's side?" Liu Xu frowned.”
"Prefecture Overseer Liu, what are you talking about?" Zhang Miao's eyes flashed.”
" Haha…" Liu Xu smiled faintly." You know Gong Tai, he was originally running around for Cao Cao's position as the herdsman of Yanzhou. Why did he join me now?”
Zhang Miao chuckled and said,"I think the palace platform can't withstand the might of Prefecture Overseer Liu's sword!"”
"No!" Liu Xu shook his head and said," If he was coerced by me, why would Gongtai take the initiative to go to Ji Yin County for me and ask Wu Zi to send troops?
The reason why Gongtai was willing to join me was because I told him something.”
Zhang Miao's face revealed a curious expression.
This was something he had always wanted to know.
Before this, Chen Gong had been running around for Cao Cao.
Cao Cao was able to become the prefect of East County because of Chen Gong's efforts.
This time, Chen Gong had personally gone to Changyi City to persuade Liu Dai's original subordinates, Wang Yu and Wan Qian, to help Cao Cao obtain the position of the herdsman of Yanzhou.
It could be said that if Chen Gong really succeeded, Cao Cao's position as the herdsman of Yanzhou would be set in stone.
However, for some unknown reason, Liu Xu's accident happened!
He looked up and stared at Liu Xu, wondering what Liu Xu would say.
However, Liu Xu leaned closer and said with a faint smile,"I only told Gong Tai one thing. How do you know that Bian Rang won't become the next Lu Boshe?”
"What?" Zhang Miao's expression changed drastically. He looked at Liu Xu in disbelief and said," This…How is this possible?!"”
Bian Rang was his best friend and was also a famous person in the world!
If such a character was really killed by Cao Cao, wouldn't that chill the hearts of the world?
Moreover, since Cao Cao could kill Bian Rang, would he be the next one?
"Why would Meng De do that?!" He shook his head. How could Meng De do that!"
Liu Xu had an unfathomable expression on his face. He only smiled faintly and did not say anything.
Zhang Miao's expression was uncertain.
He looked at Liu Xu for a long time before asking again,"Liu Hou, you said that Gong Tai was only willing to help you after hearing this?”
Liu Xu thought to himself,'Of course, there's also the reason for his threat.'
But now, he naturally wouldn't mention this.
He only smiled faintly and said,"Not bad!”
Zhang Miao admired Chen Gong's intelligence!
If Chen Gong really joined Liu Xu's side for this reason, then the matter of Cao Cao killing Zhang Rang would most likely happen.
Liu Xu frowned slightly. He pressed on the Zhanlu Sword Technique and said,"Mayor Zhang, if you don't make a decision, don't blame the Clear Sable Sword in my hand!”
Hearing this, Zhang Miao was slightly startled.
Clear Sable Sword?
How was this possible?
He looked over and was stunned when he saw the sword at Liu Xu's waist.
This…this couldn't really be the Clear Sable Sword, right?
The Clear Sable Sword was a divine weapon.
It was rumored that after the defeat of Gou Jian, the King of Yue, under Fu Chai's repeated interrogation, he had no choice but to offer this Zhanlu Sword to Fu Chai, the King of Wu.
However, no one had expected that the King of Wu, Fu Chai, would be so cruel that the Clear Sable Sword would leave on its own and appear beside the famous King of Chu.
Zhang Miao had heard of this rumor since he was young.
Because of this, when he saw the Clear Sable Sword at Liu Xu's waist, he was stunned.
He swallowed and said with a trembling voice,""Prefecture…Prefecture Overseer Liu, that longsword at your waist, could it really be the Clear Sable Sword?”
Liu Xu looked at Zhang Miao in surprise. He didn't quite understand Zhang Miao's reaction.
Wasn't it just a sword? Was there a need for such a big reaction?
Although this sword was the strongest of the five peerless divine weapons and was slightly sharp, it shouldn't have such a reaction, right?
Although he was puzzled, he still said indifferently,""Not bad! This is the Clear Sable Sword."
Although Zhang Miao had some guesses in his heart, when he heard Liu Xu admit it, his heart still jumped.
He looked at Liu Xu and said earnestly,""Prefecture Overseer Liu, I wonder if you can let me see this divine weapon?”
Although Liu Xu was puzzled, he still nodded lightly.
Then, he raised his right hand.
Whoosh!
A soft sound rang out as the Clear Sable Sword was unsheathed.
Zhang Miao came forward and carefully examined the Clear Sable Sword in Liu Xu's hand.
When he saw the two small words "Zhan Lu" on the handle, he finally understood.
This is indeed the Clear Sable Sword.
At this moment, Zhang Miao's mind was a little muddled.
Clear Sable Sword!
This was the Clear Sable Sword!
Why was the Clear Sable Sword in Liu Xu's hands?
Could it be that Liu Xu was the wise ruler?
Thinking of this, he had already made up his mind.
He cupped his hands at Liu Xu and said respectfully,""Since Lord Liu intends to quell the Yellow Turban rebellion in Yanzhou, as the Governor of Chenliu, I cannot stay out of it.
I'm willing to lead four thousand troops to help Marquis Liu eliminate the Yellow Turban bandits in Qingzhou and completely quell the chaos in Yanzhou!”
Liu Xu was stunned.
Wasn't Zhang Miao changing too quickly?
He was still unwilling just now, why did he change so quickly?
What happened in between?
Could it be that Zhang Miao's personality had changed?
Strange!
Liu Xu was surprised, but he was quite satisfied that Zhang Miao was willing to send troops.
Moreover, before coming to Chen Liu, he had discussed with Chen Gong that it would be quite good if Zhang Miao could send three thousand soldiers.
Now that Zhang Miao was willing to send 4,000 troops, this had already exceeded his and Chen Gong's expectations.
Liu Xu nodded and said,"If that's the case, then I'll have to trouble Governor Zhang." However, since the bandits were wreaking havoc in Governor Zhang's territory, there was no need for him to personally head to Changyi City.
You just need to hand over the soldiers to me!”
Zhang Miao panicked when he heard that!
He had seen the Clear Sable Sword in Liu Xu's hand, which was why he had changed his mind at the last minute and placed his bet on Liu Xu.
Of course, he still had to observe Liu Xu closely.
But now that Liu Xu didn't want him to follow him, how could he do that!
"Marquis Liu, the Yellow Turban bandits are powerful now," he hurriedly said."The most important thing is to pacify them!”
"How can that be!" Liu Xu waved his hand and said," What if the bandits take over the prefect's manor without the prefect's protection?!”
Zhang Miao was very depressed!
He regretted using the excuse of 'bandits wreaking havoc!'
