Chapter 28 Liu Bei's Ambition
After confirming their seniority, Liu Xie exchanged a few words with Liu Bei, and then began to ask him about the real purpose of his visit.
"Uncle Emperor, why did you suddenly come here? Did you see the petition to punish the traitors and come here specifically to help me and the general defeat the traitors?"
Liu Xie asked, he was curious about Liu Bei's purpose of coming here.
Yuan Shao was quite satisfied with the question Liu Xie asked.
Good question!
It would be best to keep three of them...oh no, two of them!
Liu Bei doesn't want it, he only wants Guan Yu and Zhang Fei!
"Your Majesty, I have indeed learned of your whereabouts this time, so I came here specifically to see you. But in addition, I also wanted to borrow troops from the general."
Liu Bei did not hide anything and answered truthfully about his purpose.
"Pei County under my rule was attacked by Lu Bu. Now it has fallen. The people have become prisoners and are in dire straits."
"I heard that your Majesty has ordered the general to take charge of the world's troops and attack the rebels, so I came here to borrow troops to repel Lu Bu and regain the lost territory!"
After Liu Bei finished speaking, he bowed deeply.
What he said was very clever. First, he said that the main purpose of coming was to meet the emperor, and secondly to borrow troops.
Moreover, the purpose of borrowing troops was to respond to the emperor's call to attack the rebels, to repel Lu Bu, regain the lost territory, and rescue the people.
In just a few words, he established his moral footing.
It's hard to find fault with at all.
Yuan Shao frowned deeply after hearing this, and a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes.
This Liu Bei is so shameless.
"It turns out that Pei County was captured by Lu Bu, so we came to borrow troops. This seems to have happened in history."
Liu Xie's memory was quickly recalled.
Liu Bei's Peixian County was captured by Lu Bu, which is true in history. Then Liu Bei went to Cao Cao for help, because the emperor was in Cao Cao's hands at the time, and he also made Cao Cao a general to fight against the rebels.
However, now that he has appeared, Yuan Shao has become a general, and Liu Bei, who was originally going to vote for Cao Cao, has now joined Yuan Shao.
Everything has been changed.
But these are secondary. Now you should think about how to answer Liu Bei. It is not up to him to decide whether to borrow troops or not. It still depends on Boss Yuan's face.
Before Liu Xie could speak, Jushou spoke first.
"Since we are going to defeat the rebels, why don't Liu Shijun just stay and serve His Majesty? If Liu Shijun can help us, we can defeat the rebels and revive the Han Dynasty, just around the corner."
“What’s the big deal about Pei County’s gains and losses?”
Jushou said with a smile.
Since Liu Bei talked about the great cause of conquering the rebels, he dismissed it in the same way.
Fight against the rebels? Sure, you can just stay and help. Isn't Jizhou, a huge country, not as good as Xiaopei County?
"You guy——"
Zhang Fei was very upset after hearing this, and was about to curse, but Guan Yu next to him firmly held his shoulders, his face was as dark as water, and he shook his head.
"Third brother, this is the Imperial Palace, don't be rude!"
Guan Yu whispered.
He knew the importance, and it would be fine if he was not polite in front of Yuan Shao, but if he was still rude in front of the emperor, he would be blamed and bring trouble to his eldest brother.
"snort!"
Zhang Fei gritted his teeth, shook Guan Yu's hand away, and secretly sulked.
Of course, he was not angry with Guan Yu, but felt that it was really annoying that Ju Shou dared to say that he wanted them to stay.
Although he was rude, he was not stupid. He stayed in Jizhou and said he was working for the emperor, but in fact he was working under Yuan Shao!
And who is Yuan Shao, worthy of letting the three brothers serve?
My eldest brother is the real hero!
Liu Bei's expression was indifferent, his emotions and anger were not visible. Hearing this, he smiled and said: "Bei can't help but wish to serve your Majesty. But the people of Pei County are still waiting for Bei to rescue them, and the wives and children at home are also in Lu Bu's hands."
"When I'm ready to defeat Lu Bu and recapture Pei County, I will definitely serve your Majesty as a dog and horse."
Jushou heard this and wanted to continue to attack, but at this time Yuan Shao gave him a hint, so he swallowed what he wanted to say and stepped aside.
Liu Xie saw that something was not right in the atmosphere, so he said: "Now Yuan Aiqing is in charge of the military. Everything is in accordance with Yuan Aiqing's words. If the emperor's uncle has anything to do, just discuss it with him."
"I'm a little tired, please leave first."
How Liu Bei and Yuan Shao fight is their business.
He, a puppet emperor, doesn't want to get involved.
"I resign——"
Everyone bowed and left the hall one after another.
Guo Jia also left.
But not long after, he turned back again.
"Why are you back?"
Liu Xie asked with a strange look on his face.
Guo Jia smiled and said, "They want to go back to Yuan Mansion to discuss matters. It doesn't matter if I go or not, so I found a reason to leave."
"I still have something to ask Your Majesty."
His presence in Yuan Shao's camp is very low now, so it doesn't matter whether he is there or not in all matters, no one pays attention to him wherever he goes.
Liu Xie just wanted to complain.
Asking questions again.
Are you a curious baby?
But knowing that Guo Jia had no ill intentions, Liu Xie didn't mind having multiple chat partners, so he asked, "What else do you want to ask?"
Guo Jia said bluntly: "I have noticed that Your Majesty does not seem to be very willing to get close to Ambassador Liu. Although he is enthusiastic on the surface, he is actually wary. Why is this?"
"After all, Shijun Liu is a clan member of the Han Dynasty, and his two sworn brothers are even more powerful generals."
"Your Majesty is now controlled by Yuan Shao. If you issue a secret decree to ask them for help, maybe the current situation will be improved?"
This is what Guo Jia didn't understand.
He could see that Liu Xie's excitement and happiness when he saw Liu Bei and others were all fake, not from the heart.
"Ask them for help? The secret decree?"
Liu Xie finally couldn't help complaining.
Because this script is too familiar.
According to real history, after Liu Bei surrendered to Cao Cao, Emperor Xian of Han did ask him for help, but the result was that he was discovered and Liu Bei fled in a hurry.
If he did this, the result would probably not be much better.
In this case, why repeat the same mistake?
What's more, he is still a fake emperor.
"Secret decree?"
Guo Jia frowned, not understanding what it meant.
Liu Xie had no intention of explaining to him, and said: "Liu Bei can't protect himself, and now he comes to Yuan Shao to borrow troops, which can't help me."
"Besides, people's hearts are hard to predict, and Liu Bei may not be loyal to me."
The most difficult thing to understand in the world is the human heart.
Even though Liu Xie read the history books, it was still too one-sided to judge a person's character and good or bad based on the records in the history books.
He didn't dare to bet that Liu Bei would really be loyal to the emperor.
If the bet was right, he would get Zhang Fei and Guan Yu. If the bet was wrong...
