Liu Bei was meticulous and ordered them all to be killed!
After killing them all, Liu Bei rested for a while and began to think of a long-term strategy.
Guan Yu wiped his knife and took the lead to advise,""Big brother, let's head to Ye City as soon as possible.”
Liu Bei's gaze shifted and finally locked onto Li Tian.
"Forget it, things have come to this!"
"Sir, I wonder if there is any evidence of rebellion in the Overseer's letters?”
Li Tian immediately persuaded,"
"Duke Xuande, the Overseer is desperate. What evidence do you need?”
"As long as Provincial Governor Jia sends people to capture Zhang Chun, Zhang Chun will definitely resist with force!”
"When the time comes, everything will naturally be confirmed, and everyone will be promoted.”
"I was confused for a moment and was taught a lesson.”
Liu Bei quickly admitted his mistake and ordered,"
"Second brother, cut off their heads and hide them!”
"Mister, don't worry. I have quite a bit of power in Anxi County. Outsiders won't know of the Overseer's death for two to three days.”
……
The next day, it was just past dawn.
The group of people had already made their preparations and were waiting to leave the city.
Li Tian had also changed into the armor of a normal cavalryman, disguising himself as Liu Bei's personal guard.
This time, in order to hurry, they needed one person and two horses.
Zhang Fei asked the vassal to kill a sheep and a pig that night, then cut off the bones and braised the meat.
"F * ck, this pig smell is much stronger than in the future…"
"This smell is too strong. I have to prepare more pepper anise in the future.”
Li Tian cursed in his heart. He gritted his teeth and calmed himself down.
Liu Bei sized him up.
He patted his shoulder and said nothing more.
It was Li Tian's first time riding a warhorse alone, so he was not used to it.
Liu Bei noticed it and rode alongside him.
"What plans does Boya have after this meritorious service?”
"You and I are kindred spirits, and we both have the heart to serve the country.”
"If I can be promoted to county magistrate, I will invite Boya to be my main registrar.”
Li Tian was stunned.
To be honest, if he wanted a dog in the early stages.
Liu Bei was a good choice.
Because Liu Bei was lonely.
But he had great ambitions.
At the very least, he wouldn't be killed at any time.
On the contrary, Boss Cao might lose his life if he accidentally said the wrong thing or drank too much.
This was reality, so it was better to consider reality.
Survive first!
"I felt like old friends with Lord Xuande at first sight. If you don't abandon me, I will naturally help you.”
"However, the position should still be determined by the Imperial Court. How can it be privately transferred?”
Liu Bei pondered for a moment and felt a little ashamed.
"That makes sense. Let's wait and see what the Imperial Court will do.”
"Thank you for your understanding, Duke Xuande."
Li Tian heaved a sigh of relief.
He had the heart, but he could not belittle himself.
Li Tian had always believed that as long as he put an end to Zhang Chun's rebellion.
With his own talent and foresight.
It shouldn't be too difficult for him and Liu Bei to climb up the ranks of the Spirit Monarch Stage.
……
From Anxi to Wuji, it was only ninety miles.
Li Tian's horsemanship wasn't very good, so the group rode for nearly four hours.
In order to support Ma Li, he even changed horses halfway.
Along the way, Li Tian and Liu Bei talked about the world.
Just a trace of it was enough to shock Liu Bei!
It was about a quarter past noon.
The city wall of Wuji County finally appeared on the horizon.
Wuji's guards were clearly not as easy to talk to as Anxi County.
Especially when they saw Liu Bei's cavalry, they became nervous from over a hundred meters away, all of them pulling out their weapons and spears.
"Who are you? Quickly show me the talisman!"
The guard's hand that was holding the sword and shield was sweating.
They were afraid that the other party was a small group of Black Mountain Thieves.
"I am Anxi County Lieutenant Liu Bei. Recently, I heard that my old friend Zhen Yi had passed away from illness, so I have come to mourn.”
Liu Bei did not act like a big shot. He held the official pass in his hand from afar.
"Since it's a funeral, why did you bring so many troops?”
There were a total of nineteen riders and nearly forty horses.
This troop looked very elite. No wonder the other party was afraid.
Liu Bei replied neither obsequiously nor arrogantly,
"The Black Mountain Bandits are rampant, and the roads are not clear. As a military official of the imperial court, how can we not be on guard when we go out?”
"Isn't your county captain the same? What's your name? You're quite diligent.”
The gatekeeper finally changed his attitude and sent him off with a smile.
"County Lieutenant Liu is right! Please enter the city. Do you need to lead the way?"
"No need."
Liu Bei put on a show and pretended to ask the other party's name seriously.
It was as if she would really put in a good word for him.
Then, he rode into the city.
Li Tian was impressed.
This guy's method of subduing people's hearts was already deeply ingrained in his bones.
Even for a sect official.
If this was the case for his entire life, then what was the difference between truth and falsehood?
Just like that saying, what was it again?
All men were liars.
A bad man would lie to you for a night.
A good man would lie to you for the rest of his life.
Li Tian shook his head and followed them in.
……
The group soon arrived at Zhen Manor, and Liu Bei dismounted first.
The cavalrymen rested under the porch.
A young man dressed in a white silk robe came out to welcome him.
Liu Bei cupped his hands politely and explained his intentions,"
"My condolences, Young Lord. I am pleased with County Lieutenant Liu Bei.”
"Recently, I heard that an old friend had passed away, so I came a step late.”
"These are my second brother, third brother, and secretary, Mister Li.”
"So it's County Lieutenant Liu. Don't say that. Your Excellency has come all the way here.”
The young man returned the greeting and introduced them to each other.
The older one on the left was called Zhen Yan, fifteen years old.
The one on the right was called Zhen Yao. He was only thirteen years old.
While Liu Bei was paying his respects, Li Tian had been observing curiously.
The mansion was very luxurious, and he knew that Zhen Mi belonged to this family.
However, the little girl was only four or five years old now. He probably couldn't tell if she was beautiful or ugly.
Even her four sisters would have to mourn for three years before they could consider it.
Hence, Li Tian lost his sexual desire.
"I came here to ask for help today. Why are you thinking about beautiful women?”
Li Tian warned himself in his heart before he calmed himself down.
On the other side, Zhen Yan had already returned the greeting and casually asked,
"County Officer Liu is tired from the journey.”
"I'm young and ignorant. There are many things that my late father didn't have time to explain.”
"I wonder how County Lieutenant Liu and my late father met.”
Liu Bei had already thought about it on the way.
"Who in the county doesn't know that the Zhen family controls the Liaodong trade route?”
"Three years ago, I got a batch of good Wuhuan horses from Liaoxi and met Brother Zhen on the way back.”
"Brother Zhen took a fancy to one of them and wanted to buy it. I also promised to give it to you when I came back.”
"However, on the way back, I encountered a Yellow Turban riot and actually made me break my promise to Brother Zhen.”
"I've come this time to offer this horse.”
Li Tian was impressed by Liu Bei's words.
Fortunately, he had good self-restraint and did not show a surprised expression.
Liu Bei was really good at making friends.
If this was in the modern era.
Who didn't treat him as a sworn brother?
If he were to enter a sales company, he would completely beat all the sales champions!
As expected, Zhen Yan immediately thanked him after hearing this.
"Shishu is so righteous, comparable to Ji Zha hanging a sword. I am ashamed.”
Zhen Yan thought for a moment and invited,
"I wonder if Uncle has any military affairs?”
"If you have time, why don't you stay in my humble abode for a few more days so that I can fulfill my duties as a host?”
"Four days later will be the day my father dies.”
"At that time, there will be many other distinguished guests visiting.”
Liu Bei's expression did not change, but his actions clearly showed hesitation.
