Liu Bei saw the trick for a moment and waved his hand with a wry smile.

"Zi Jing, thank you for your comfort. I am grateful to Your Majesty for your misfortune, I have been appointed as the king and established a country, and I have restored my ancestors' old careers. I have already had great kindness, so how dare I beg for Shu and covet Jizhou. Moreover, the King of Wei is the old master of the lonely, and I have kindness to the lonely, so I cannot take over his land."

Qian Zhao shook his head, his expression was serious, and he could not see any smile. "The king is admirable, but the great conduct is not limited to trivial matters. When the Han Dynasty survived and died, the king should strive to be the first. How could he miss the major affairs and let His Majesty down because of temporary courtesy? Besides, what I am talking about is Jizhou, not Wei State, so the king does not have to worry about it."

Liu Bei's eyes flashed, and he pondered for a moment, and suddenly became excited. "Zi Jing, what do you mean... Your Majesty sent Cui Jun and others to help them stabilize Jizhou? Then what should the King of Wei do?"

Qian Zhao sighed and said, "The king, a son of the Wei family, was born in Runan and raised in Luoyang. He was able to establish a foothold in Jizhou because his father Yuan Shao took the power of the Yuan family's four generations and three kings, and he was supported by the party members. He planned to seize Jizhou from the old official Han Fu. How could he have any kindness and trust between him and Jizhou? Now that Yuan Shao has passed away, the party members are separated, and only Ju Su, Tian Feng and others are left to support him. The two battles in Yanzhou were not over, and the losses were lost. Qingzhou was slaughtered by Shen You and Xu Kun. He was slaughtered by Shen You and Xu Kun. He was trapped in Jizhou in the future. Can the people of Jizhou still believe him?"

Liu Bei narrowed his eyes. Of course he wanted to get Jizhou, but he didn't dare to think so. Yuan Tan's background was much higher than him. Ju Su, Tian Feng and others could support Yuan Tan, but they would not support him. If Qianzhao was to comfort and encourage him, he would certainly be grateful, but if he thought he could really get Jizhou, he would be delusional and humiliate himself.

"Master, can you see Cui Jun?"

"Yes!" Liu Bei gritted his teeth and nodded vigorously. No matter what the pulling moves were said, the edict would still be accepted. If Cui Jun and others could stay, it would be beneficial to him to control Zhongshan and Hejian. "Gaozu Gaozu was killed by Xiang Yu, but he could still be strong. If he only got Gongsun Xu's arrow, how could he insult his bloodline? Zi Jing helped Gu up. When he saw Cui Jun, he said that Gu's leg was injured and he was not good at walking."

The secret is understood. Liu Bei may never tell Cui Jun and others about his successors. He helped Liu Bei up, and asked someone to wash Liu Bei, then helped him to the hall, let Liu Bei sit down, tidy up his clothes, and wiped away the dense sweat from his forehead. When Liu Bei recovered, there was no flaw on his appearance, so he went to attract Cui Jun himself.

Cui Jun, whose courtesy name was Yuanping, was from Anping. His father Cui Lie bought Situ during the reign of Emperor Ling, and later moved to Taiwei. He was considered to be the third duke. However, because Situ bought it for money, it was criticized. Even Cui Jun himself disagreed with it at that time and said bluntly that his father's three dukes had a bad reputation, which was a joke. Cui Jun was born in a noble family and had a very famous demeanor. When he was young, he was very fond of making friends with heroes and got very close to Yuan Shao. When Qianzhao was in Luoyang, he was from the same county and had visited Cui Jun and received a lot of help.

This time, Cui Jun came to meet Liu Bei by the imperial edict, and immediately found Qian Zhao and asked Liu Bei about him. He had met Liu Bei, but had no relationship. Liu Bei had a low background and a bad reputation. He never thought that Liu Bei could help the Han Dynasty and was dissatisfied with the emperor's appointment of Liu Bei as the King of Zhongshan. However, he trusted Qian Zhao more and more. Qian Zhao abandoned Yuan Tan and defected to Liu Bei. He wanted to know why.

In front of Cui Jun, Qianzhao dared not speak nonsense. He told Cui Jun that although Liu Bei was a disciple of Lu Zhi, he did not study well. If it was a peaceful and prosperous era, it would be difficult for him to achieve anything. However, Liu Bei also had the advantages of Liu Bei. He was from a poor background and had a poor family background, so he was persevering in character. No matter how many setbacks he suffered, as long as he did not die, he could always cheer up again. Unlike Yuan Shao, Yuan Tan and his son, who had gone too smoothly, could not withstand the blow.

In short, Liu Bei is more like Emperor Gaozu of Han, and his relationship with Sun Ce is also very similar to Emperor Gaozu of Han and Xiang Yu. If someone can defeat Sun Ce in the end and reverse the situation, Liu Bei should be the one with a higher possibility, at least more than Yuan Tan. His Majesty's preference for Liu Bei is his extraordinary point, and it is definitely not a blind move. If you want to protect Jizhou, Yuan Tan is unreliable, and you have to rely on Liu Bei.

Cui Jun was skeptical, but he had no other choice, so he could only temporarily accept the advice of the challenge. Sun Ce was determined to uproot the aristocratic family, with Jingzhou and Yuzhou in front, Yanzhou and Qingzhou in back, and the heads along the way had proved his determination. Now that he was about to encircle Jizhou, he could not see the heads of the Jizhou family also held on the roadside. No matter whether Liu Bei could do it or not, he could only treat it as a living horse.

Cui Jun and others followed the siege to the hall and saw Liu Bei sitting in the hall with his waist straight, although his face was pale and his expression was calm. He greeted Liu Bei, and Liu Bei politely returned the gift and apologized for not being able to get up due to his injury.

Cui Jun introduced Liu Bei to several other people, all young talents selected by the emperor, half from Jizhou, half from Shanxi, including several Bingzhou people. Among them was Liu Bei's acquaintance, Zhong Shao, who had been on a mission to Youzhou, and Liu Bei chatted with them for a while, and was happy. These people were almost all famous scholars, but few generals. Obviously, the emperor knew that he did not lack generals, and did not want to get involved in military power, which aroused his suspicion, so he arranged these scholars to help him handle government affairs and manage the local area.

Regardless of whether the emperor hoped that he would take over Jizhou or not, he had high hopes for him. Liu Bei was excited for a moment and even became much better. He just won the title of king not long ago, but now he has been a waste of helpers whom he never dared to think about. He may still take over Jizhou in the future. He is really unstoppable if his luck comes.

Thanks to Sun Ce. If Sun Ce hadn't been aggressive and killed all the aristocratic families, the emperor felt threatened and the aristocratic families had no way out, how could I make a profit from it? Emperor Gaozu's world was given by Xiang Yu, and my world was given by Sun Ce, just the same.

Liu Bei was overjoyed and held a banquet to greet Cui Jun and others, and introduced them to the generals. He was all colleagues in the future. He had to transfer some government affairs and power, so he naturally had to get to know him first. Looking at the civil and military affairs in the hall, Liu Bei was happy, but he was a little awkward when he saw Guan Yu.

Guan Yu was also awkward. First, he was dissatisfied with Liu Bei or others for the defeat, and second, he had always been not very tempted by famous scholars and other people. Seeing Cui Jun and others talking loudly, it seemed that they could defeat Sun Ce as long as they used a little trick, they really couldn't raise their spirits. When Liu Bei proposed to invite Cui Jun to be the prime minister of Zhongshan and Zhong Shao to be the prime minister of Hejian, he couldn't help but say that Yuan Shao valued famous scholars back then, but the Ruying faction and Jizhou faction were in conflict, which led to Guandu's defeat.

As soon as he said that the lively atmosphere in the hall immediately became cold. Especially Cui Jun, his eyebrows were frowned. He had long heard that Guan Yu was unruly and had no rituals of the monarch and ministers, and he did not agree with the emperor's desire to win over Guan Yu. Now, seeing Guan Yu with his own eyes was unrestrained, he added a third of disgust. He never mentioned the matter of Dayuan horses, and he didn't even want to look at Guan Yu.

Liu Bei had a gloomy face, lowered his eyelids, and said nothing.

Guan Yu also felt embarrassed and bowed his hand. He made an excuse to drink. Without waiting for Liu Bei to agree, Gu Zi stood up and left the table and left. He left the court and was about to call his guards to leave, but found that Zhou Cang was not there. After asking, he found out that Zhou Cang heard that the emperor's envoy brought a Dayuan BMW, which was given to Guan Yu. He felt itchy and went to the stable to see it first.

As he was talking, Zhou Cang came back, his face full of joy, and he danced and described the appearance of the Dayuan horse to Guan Yu. The Dayuan horse was tall, with a shoulder height of nearly seven feet, a small head and a long neck, and a strong body. He was taller than a Liangzhou horse, which was just right for Guan Yu. With this horse and with the Yanyue Sword, Guan Yu was invincible in the world.

Guan Yu was moved for a moment, but when he thought of Liu Bei's expression in the hall just now, he couldn't help but sigh, and said nothing, turned over and rode away quickly. Seeing that the situation was wrong, Zhou Cang did not dare to say anything, so he took other guards to chase Guan Yu.

I don’t know if the arrival of Cui Jun and others gave Liu Bei new hope. His wounds recovered very quickly. Ten days later, he could sit up and even walk slowly.

On that day, he sat in the hall and looked at the Dayuan horse in the courtyard that looked like a divine beast, and was very entangled.

The legendary Tianma is hard to find. The emperor rewarded Guan Yu with such a BMW, which made him very embarrassed. The people in the stable said that Zhou Cang, who was beside Guan Yu, already knew that the existence of this horse was, and he also knew that it was the emperor who rewarded Guan Yu. If Guan Yu did not give it to Guan Yu, Guan Yu would definitely hold a grudge. Giving Guan Yu was also the emperor's kindness and had nothing to do with him. Now he had a rift with Guan Yu, and if Guan Yu left him, he would not be able to stop him.

With this horse, even if Guan Yu's biggest weakness has been solved, who can be his opponent in the future? If he becomes an enemy, wouldn't he cause trouble for himself?

Liu Bei wanted to calm down for a few days, find an opportunity to ease the relationship, and then give the horse to Guan Yu, but he didn't expect Guan Yu to never come. Guan Yu stayed in the door these days and no one saw him. Even Zhang Fei was turned away when he went to him. What was he doing? As the chief general of the former army, he made such a big mistake, shouldn't he take the initiative to apologize?

Liu Bei was so angry that he was so angry that his memories came like a tide, which made him feel even more wronged. He was already tolerant of Guan Yu, but Guan Yu had not changed at all. He was in his forties and was still impulsive and stubborn in his twenties. Sun Ce did not try to keep him. It was because of his personality that he was worried that he would not be able to use it, so he simply sent it to Youzhou, right?

Suddenly, Liu Bei was stunned. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was very high. He had experienced Sun Ce's insidiousness. The suggestion that he would return to Youzhou was a typical example. It was not a good intention, but to let him restrain Gongsun Zan. However, he did not expect that Gongsun Zan would die with Liu He. Later, he saw that he might have won Youzhou alone, so he immediately sent Taishi Ci to go back to Youzhou with Gongsun Xu, and even went to fight in person to seize Liaodong.

Since Sun Ce was so strict with him, it was not impossible to let Guan Yu come to Youzhou to disrupt the situation.

Liu Bei sighed softly. "Yi De, Yun Chang said that, would you have any plans to leave me?"
