Early in the morning, after the general's mansion.

Liu Zhang was shirtless, constantly pushing a pair of dumbbells made of stone.

"Ah, ah, ah ah ah ah!"

Liu Zhang had bulging veins on his forehead, and his face was flushed from the pressure. He could only keep pushing himself up by shouting non-stop.

Fortunately, the guards in the mansion are used to Liu Zhang's shouts, otherwise they would have to rush in to protect Liu Zhang.

After more than ten repetitions, Liu Zhang threw away the dumbbell and lay down on the stool in relief.

"Hoo...ha....Phoo..."

Although sweat had soaked his whole body and even his face was covered with sweat, Liu Zhang didn't have the strength to wipe it off anymore.

"Ah! Comfortable! Today is another day of exhaustion!"

When it comes to exercising, Liu Zhang's perseverance is absolutely unmatched!

For more than ten years without interruption, in addition to leading troops to fight, he will definitely spare time for training.

Liu Zhang's muscles are already very developed, and the bulging is visible to the naked eye, revealing a strange beauty!

In terms of strength alone, Liu Zhang is not inferior to Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, and Tai Shici, but he is far inferior to Dian Wei.

It's a pity that Liu Zhang didn't have the qualifications to practice martial arts, so he couldn't last many rounds in the hands of several people.

Just as Liu Zhang was indulging in his own muscles, the voice of a guard came from outside.

"General, Jia Changshi and Xun Zhubo are asking to see each other."

Liu Zhang looked at the sweat on his body, it was already a little dry and sticky, it must be uncomfortable to put on clothes like this.

Turning his head and looking at Guibiao on the ground, it turned out that it was already time.

"You tell the kitchen to prepare meals for the three of you, and ask the two military advisers to wait for me in the room. I'll wash up and go!"

"promise!"

Without further delay, Liu Zhang quickly returned to the room and took a bath under the service of the maid.

Although he had already seized the time, it still took Liu Zhang more than half an hour to wash and dress.

"Wenhe, Gongda, wait a long time!"

When Liu Zhang rushed to the study, Jia Xu and Xunyou were already waiting here, and even the food had been served.

"No problem!"

Seeing Liu Zhang coming in, the two stepped forward to salute Liu Zhang.

Liu Zhang directly pulled the two of them to the front of the dining table and asked them to sit down respectively.

"Wenhe, Gongda, let's chat while eating!"

The two of them didn't refuse either. After getting along for a while, Jia Xu and Xunyou also knew Liu Zhang well. Although the proper etiquette had never been neglected, the relationship was already very close and there was no alienation at all.

In the Han Dynasty and even the entire feudal society, people paid attention to not talking when eating and not talking when sleeping.

But Liu Zhang still likes to talk while eating, especially when eating with people close to him.

The current food lacks seasoning, almost only steaming, which is really tasteless. Although Liu Zhang has been eating for more than ten years, he still can't get used to it.

After practicing all morning, Liu Zhang was already hungry, so he picked up a piece of meat and started to eat it.

Jia Xu and Xunyou didn't care about Liu Zhang's eating appearance, and ate their meals on their own.

"Today's meat is quite fresh, isn't it the horse that died this morning?"

Liu Zhang ate the horse meat in one bite, but the quality of the meat was obviously different from the previous ones!

Xun You put down his chopsticks and nodded to Liu Zhang.

"My lord, when the servant brought it up just now, I told you that it was delivered this morning."

Liu Zhang couldn't help shaking his head, sighing in his heart, the horse must have died again!

"Gongda, eat quickly, you're welcome."

Probably because he was really hungry, Liu Zhang didn't speak any more, and kept his head down in the wind and clouds.

Liu Zhang ate fast and plentiful, while Jia Xu and Xun You ate slowly and seldom. Fortunately, the kitchen cooked enough meat today, otherwise there would be no Jia Xu and Xun You to eat!

"Uh…"

Satisfied with wine and food, Liu Zhang stretched in satisfaction.

"Two military advisers, are you ready to eat?"

"Thank you, my lord, I'll finish eating!"

Liu Zhang really admired these two people, they could talk together every time, and they all said the same thing!

The servants acted quickly, and it didn't take long for the table to be cleaned up and the brewed tea served.

"The two military advisers are here because of what happened yesterday!"

Liu Zhang took the tea bowl and poured a cup for the two of them respectively.

"My lord, I think yesterday was a good harvest!"

Jia Xu picked up the tea bowl and took a sip lightly.

Liu Zhang's hand holding the tea froze slightly, and then let out a wry smile.

"Wen He, you don't know that His Majesty almost killed me yesterday!"

"what!"

Jia Xu exclaimed, and looked at Liu Zhang in disbelief. Then he turned his head to look at Xun You, and found that the other party was also shocked.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

Seeing the astonished expressions of the two, Liu Zhang couldn't help laughing up to the sky.

"My lord, what are you?"

"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore!"

Liu Zhang told the two of yesterday's events in detail, including the conversation with Zhang Rang, meeting the princess, and finally waiting for Zhang Ji.

"Who said that our Majesty is only greedy for pleasure and sells officials to make money?"

Liu Zhang's tone was a bit playful, giving people a very disdainful feeling.

"My lord, there won't be any problems with His Majesty in a short time. He still needs to rely on my lord to resist He Jin."

Xun You also nodded in approval, "That's right, and the fight between Shi Changshi and Yuan Shi was provoked this time, which greatly reduced our pressure!"

"Hahaha, let them bite dogs! The harder they bite, the better off we will be!"

The more fierce the fighting between the various forces, the harder it is to take care of Liu Zhang. And once Liu Zhang goes to the northwest battlefield, he can take the opportunity to completely escape from the quagmire of Luoyang!

The current situation is indeed very good, and even Jia Xu and Xun You feel that they can already study the Northwest rebels!

Just when the three of them were all beaming with joy, Liu Zhang's expression suddenly changed and he began to sigh again and again.

"Hey, what a pity! I can't get the centuries-old ginseng in the palace for Han Sheng! I can only watch Huang Xu..."

Although Liu Zhang knew that even if Huang Xu died one day, Huang Zhong would not blame Liu Zhang, let alone rebellion. But Liu Zhang is also human, so naturally he doesn't want to watch Huang Xu die tragically!

For this kind of thing, Jia Xu has no good way. This kind of treasure is almost regarded as an inheritance, almost the same as the jade seal!

"My lord, do you remember Princess Wannian?"

Hearing Xun You's question, that beautiful girl appeared in Liu Zhang's mind.

"Of course I know, His Majesty once wanted to betroth the princess to me, but I refused..."

Xun You looked at Liu Zhang strangely, and seemed to regret Liu Zhang's tone.

"My lord, do you know the origin of the princess title?"

Liu Zhang chuckled and shook his head slightly. How did he know the title of the princess? Could it be that Liu Hong wanted his daughter to live for 10,000 years?

"How can I know about this kind of royal family members?"

"My lord, the origin of the Wannian princess is related to this ginseng plant."
