Guan Yu caught a glimpse of Zhang Fei's aggrieved look, brushed his beautiful long hair under his chin, and showed a contemplative look on his face.

He thought patiently and said slowly: "Third brother, the eldest brother has a grudge against Lu Bu, and I also hope to kill Chen Gong." But this time and that time cannot be confused. In the past, when the princes were fighting against Dong, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Yuan Shu and Wang Can were allies, but now they are attacking each other, and Yuan Shu and Lu Bu were also enemies, but now they are united to attack Wang Can. We have a grudge against Lu Bu, but we can't affect the great cause of the eldest brother in order to take revenge, we must think twice before acting! ”

Zhang Fei pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "Isn't it just a Chen Palace?" What's the point of killing. ”

When Guan Yu heard this, he was speechless.

Liu Bei held Zhang Fei's hand and said meaningfully: "Third brother, we occupy Runan and take Yuzhou, but there are too few talents under our command, and the background is insufficient, Chen Gong is a talent, it is worth seeing!" ”

Liu Bei saw that Zhang Fei was still angry, and said what he thought in his heart.

As long as it is useful to him, he wants to take it for his own use.

As for whether he can succeed or not, it is another matter, and whether he can do it himself or not is another matter, and he just obeys the destiny of heaven as much as he can.

When Zhang Fei heard this, he sighed and said, "Okay, I listen to my eldest brother, and I won't take the initiative to seek revenge." ”

After Liu Bei and Guan Yu listened, their hearts fell to the ground. Zhang Fei was irritable, and what Liu Bei and Guan Yu were most afraid of was that Zhang Fei agreed on the surface, but in private he took the soldiers to find trouble with Chen Gong. Therefore, Liu Bei should do a good job in Zhang Fei's ideological work, let Zhang Fei put down the mustard, and consider Liu Bei's great cause.

"Report!"

Footsteps rang out, and hurried sounds came from afar.

A soldier quickly ran into the courtyard, immediately knelt on one knee, and said with his fists clenched: "My lord, Chen Gong's convoy is already five miles outside Runan City, and it is about to arrive at the city gate. ”

Liu Bei raised his eyebrows and hurriedly said, "Go, go out of the city to greet you!" ”

As he spoke, Liu Bei walked out with the soldiers.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei followed behind Liu Bei and also walked towards the city gate. Guan Yu knew what Liu Bei was thinking, and he also knew Liu Bei's intention to do this, so he didn't have any complaints in his heart. But Zhang Fei didn't think so in his heart, he didn't lead troops to kill Chen Gong was already magnanimous, but he still had to go out of the city to meet Chen Gong, what kind of truth is this?

Zhang Fei was resentful and could only suppress it in his heart.

The three men left the county guard and rode towards the gate of the city.

It didn't take long, and when Liu Bei and the three arrived at the city gate, Chen Gong's convoy had not yet arrived, and was still approaching Runan City. Liu Bei looked around, thought about it, and immediately ordered the soldiers to prepare a carriage and put it at the gate of the city.

Seeing this, Guan Yu also understood Liu Bei's purpose after thinking about it.

Zhang Fei was in the clouds and mist, and he didn't understand Liu Bei's intention of putting a carriage at the gate of the city for a while.

Three people, on horseback, waited quietly.

"It's coming, it's coming!"

At some point, one of the soldiers yelled. I saw a horse-drawn carriage driving quickly on the official road in the distance, and there were more than a dozen soldiers accompanying the carriage. These people are naturally envoys headed by Chen Gong, he traveled lightly, and he didn't bring many people, only more than ten soldiers, which can be regarded as cold.

Liu Bei saw the carriage coming, turned over and dismounted, and walked a few steps forward.

At this time, even Guan Yu felt that Liu Bei was too grand.

Because Liu Bei not only went out of the city to greet him in person, but also prepared a carriage for Chen Gong, and also personally dismounted to greet him, which was too grand. Guan Yu felt that it was inappropriate in his heart, but he would not dismantle Liu Bei's platform in front of everyone, so he still got off the horse in an orderly manner, took a few steps forward, and stood behind Liu Bei waiting for Chen Gong to come.

Seeing that Chen Gong's convoy was getting closer and closer, Zhang Fei muttered, "Big brother, are we paying too much attention to Chen Gong." ”

Liu Bei didn't look back, and said lightly: "Chen Gong has great talents, Cao Cao can't use it, and Lu Bu can't use it, if it can be used by me, how can we be confined to the land of Yuzhou." If we can win over Chen Gong, with the two of you as generals and Chen Gong as strategists, we can be regarded as the princes of one side. ”

Liu Bei wandered around, and naturally understood the importance of strategists.

There are several strategists under his command, but Jian Yong is an internal affairs talent and is suitable for handling internal affairs; Sun Qian is a diplomatic talent, suitable for envoys to negotiate; Mi Zhu and Mi Fang transformed from businessmen to officials, and they have not yet adapted to it for a while and cannot take charge on their own. Liu Bei didn't have a strategist to advise him, so he urgently needed such a figure.

That's why Liu Bei attaches so much importance to Chen Gong.

Chen Gong is Lu Bu's advisor, but who wouldn't dig up the foot of the wall? Regardless of whether he succeeds or not, Liu Bei has to make such a gesture to show his thirst for talent.

Chen Gong sat in the carriage, gently opened the curtain of the carriage door, and was startled when he saw Liu Bei standing outside the city to greet him. Good guy, Liu Bei actually took Guan Yu and Zhang Fei out of the city to dismount to greet them, this battle is not a simple greeting! Such a situation made Chen Gong feel that Liu Bei was not simple.

Seeing that the distance was gradually getting closer, Chen Gong shouted: "Stop!" ”

At the sound of an order, the soldier driving the car grabbed the reins of the horse and stopped the carriage.

Chen Gong stepped down from the carriage and walked towards the front gate with the accompanying soldiers.

In fact, Chen Gong could wait for the carriage to arrive at the city gate before ordering it to stop, but Liu Bei personally went out of the city to greet him, giving enough face, and he also wanted to show something, so he stopped the carriage outside the city, and then walked forward with his entourage.

In this way, his etiquette can be revealed.

Chen Gong was wearing a black robe, wearing an ancient crown, a jade belt around his waist, and a sword hanging from his waist. He held his head high, walked with a big stride, his expression was calm and calm, his demeanor was generous and decent, and he revealed an extraordinary bearing when he walked, which made people can't help but praise him.

Seeing this, Liu Bei secretly said in his heart that if such a person could be used by him, how good it would be!

When Liu Bei admired in his heart, he also strode forward.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei had bitter smiles on their faces and followed forward.

After Liu Bei and Chen Gong met, Liu Bei waved his hand and said, "Gongtai, I've been waiting for you for a long time, follow me into the city!" Liu Bei didn't shout 'Mr. Chen', but called Chen Gong directly. In this way, the distance between the two sides is shortened, and it seems that the contradictions that had occurred in the past have also been dissolved.

Seeing this, Chen Gong felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

Liu Bei is also a big prince in the world, and he was able to abandon his previous suspicions and pull him to the city, which shows Liu Bei's mind.

When the two walked to the side of the carriage, Liu Bei waved his hand and said, "Gongtai, please!" ”

Although Chen Gong wanted to excuse himself, he could see Liu Bei's resolute expression, and the ghost envoy nodded sadly, got into the carriage directly, and sat in the carriage. He dusted off his somewhat wrinkled robe and waited for Liu Bei to sit in, but after a while, he didn't see Liu Bei walk in, but heard Liu Bei shouting: "Drive!" ”

The carriage drove around and down to the city.

After Chen Gong heard Liu Bei's voice, he understood that Liu Bei was using him as a coachman!

At this time, Liu Bei stood on the wheel of the carriage, pulled the reins of the horse with both hands, and laughed: "Gongtai, you sit tight!" Liu Bei's voice came into the carriage, making Chen Gong's heart tremble, and the expression on his face became complicated.
