"I am the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan. My name is Liu Bei, and my surname is Liu Bei. This brother's surname is Guan Yu, and his surname is Yun Chang. He has just joined my volunteer army.”
Liu Bei introduced himself to Zhang Fei and showed off his background.
Upon hearing that he was a descendant of the Great Han Dynasty's Imperial Family, Zhang Fei's eyes were filled with respect once again. He hurriedly introduced,"So you're the descendant of the Great Han Dynasty's royal family. My name is Zhang Fei, also known as Yi De, and I'm a native of Zhuo County. No wonder I felt so close to you when I saw you.”
The Han Dynasty had been established for more than 400 years, and the Liu family's orthodox status had long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Even at this time, to the ordinary people, the imperial power was still so sacred and inviolable.
At least before Dong Zhuo's chaos, no one had ever dared to think of replacing the Liu family's position.
Zhang Fei, a low-level figure, naturally had a little more respect for Liu Bei, a relative of the royal family.
Looking at Zhang Fei's appearance, Liu Bei knew that his recruitment had already been half successful.
Just as he was about to continue roping him in, Liu Ye coughed lightly and said indifferently,"Who claimed to be a descendant of the Great Han Imperial Family? This Prince also wants to meet this relative.”
As he spoke, Liu Ye appeared in front of Liu Bei and the others with the white-robed soldiers and Cheng Yaojin.
"I wonder who this is…"
Seeing Liu Ye arrive, Liu Bei went forward and probed.
"Listen, my king is His Majesty's eldest son. His Highness, the King of Zhao, has come to Youzhou to crusade against the Yellow Turban bandits under His Majesty's orders.”
"When you see my wangye, hurry up and greet him.”
Cheng Yaojin patted his chest and said in an imposing manner.
"King Zhao?"
"Are you the Zhao King who defeated the Xianbei and the Xiongnu at Yanmen?”Liu Bei asked.
"This King is really the King of Zhao, Liu Ye."
Liu Ye looked at Liu Bei with a faint smile.
Seeing this, Liu Bei quickly bowed to Liu Ye and said,""I am Liu Bei, the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan.”
"I am Guan Yu. Greetings, Your Highness King Zhao!”
"Zhang Fei greets His Highness King Zhao!"
"Jian Yong greets His Highness King Zhao!"
……
Liu Bei and the others did not dare to be impudent in front of Liu Ye. They were all extremely respectful.
Liu Ye laughed and said,"No need to be so polite."”
"Liu Bei, the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan, you are actually a descendant of the Liu royal family?”
Seeing Liu Ye's interest, Liu Bei quickly explained his identity in detail.
After hearing this, Liu Ye deliberately pondered for a moment before continuing,""According to what you said. You are this king's imperial uncle."
Liu Bei wasn't stupid. He didn't dare to be arrogant in front of Liu Ye at this time. He cupped his fists guiltily and said,"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare. Liu Bei only has seniority. How would he dare to address himself as the Imperial Uncle in front of the King of Zhao?”
Seeing Liu Bei's humble appearance, if someone who didn't know better, they would really think that this was the simple and honest Liu Bei.
Even many of the vassals of the Three Kingdoms felt that Liu Bei was a simple and honest person.
Therefore, countless dukes were willing to take Liu Bei in because of his benevolence and righteousness.
Although Liu Ye wanted to kill Liu Bei right now.
However, killing someone for no reason, even if Liu Ye was a prince, was still somewhat unjustifiable.
Thus, Liu Ye's brows relaxed and he revealed a smile.""Liu Bei, our Han Dynasty rules the world with filial piety. The most important thing is seniority. If you are this king's imperial uncle, this king will naturally correct you.”
"Since your background is so detailed, why don't you take out your genealogy? If your identity is verified, this king will naturally correct your name.”
When Liu Bei heard this, he was shocked. He felt like he had been struck by lightning.
In the past, he had used this identity to swindle and deceive countless people. No one had dared to be so bold as to check his genealogy.
However, who would have thought that he would meet a royal relative of the burly man here? At this time, he actually wanted to check his genealogy. What should he do?
How could Liu Bei not know his own situation?
If he could take out real evidence, he would have shouted all over the world. Why would he be anxious here?
However, things had already come to this point. He had already claimed to be a member of the Han clan.
If he didn't explain, wouldn't he be accused of cheating the world and his reputation be ruined?
At this moment, he was regretting coming here to look for Guan Yu.
Guan Yu, who was at the side, saw Liu Bei stunned and carefully reminded him,""My lord, His Highness the King of Zhao has asked you a question. My lord, you are a relative of the Han clan. If you take out the genealogy and prove your identity, with the help of His Highness the King of Zhao, you can also seek an official position.”
Liu Bei swallowed his saliva. Why didn't he realize earlier that Guan Yu liked to be so nosy?
If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute.
Seeing Liu Bei continue to remain silent, ready to be a mute, Liu Ye would not let him be. He continued,"Liu Bei, your people are still urging you. In front of so many people, you won't make this king wait for you here, right?”
At this moment, Liu Bei knew that he could not fool him anymore. He could only bite the bullet and explain,"Your Highness, to tell you the truth, Liu Bei has some hidden troubles. More than ten years ago, when my late father was still alive, he was drunk and caused a mess. He set fire to all the family genealogy in the family. Therefore, at this time, I can't take out the family genealogy at all.”
"Your father was drunk and caused trouble. He burned the genealogy. Why didn't you report it and repair the genealogy?”Liu Ye continued to ask.
"Burning the genealogy is a capital crime according to the Liu clan's law. Even if I don't want the Liu clan's status, I would never dare to harm father's life, much less his reputation.”
As he spoke, Liu Bei knelt on the ground and cried out," Father, I am useless. Today, in order to prove my identity, I betrayed my father. I hope that father knows and does not blame me."”
Liu Bei's acting was sincere and sincere. The way he cried was touching. At least Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were completely moved by him.
