After running around for several days, my body is tired.

After the introduction between Long Xiang and Liu Bei, his eyelids started fighting crazily, and finally he muttered: "I'm a little sleepy, I'll close my eyes for a while..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he fell down on the soft mat.

"Brother, this..." Guan Yu, with quick eyes and quick hands, helped Long Xiang.

When Liu Bei saw this, he sighed and said, "Yunqi has been coming day and night to report the news. His sincerity is evident. You must not doubt him again in the future. It seems you are exhausted..."

Zhang Fei suddenly came over and picked up Long Xiang from Guan Yu's arms.

"Third brother, what are you doing?"

Because Zhang Fei struck so quickly, Guan Yu didn't react at all.

Zhang Fei said seriously: "I took Yunqi back to his room to rest. There are people coming and going in the Yazheng Hall of this mansion, so we cannot let him sleep here."

"Slow down." Liu Bei waved to stop, and then said with empty eyes: "The third brother snored like thunder, which frightened him at night. I will ask Mrs. Gan to vacate a room later, so that Yun Qi can have a good night's rest."

Guan Yu reminded in a low voice: "Brother's bedroom? Is this appropriate?"

"What's inappropriate? Brother and Yun Qi sleep on the same bed at night, letting Mrs. Gan and Mrs. Mi squeeze in." Liu Bei disagreed.

"Brother, I misunderstood." Guan Yu blushed and waved his hands, then explained: "What I mean is that it is still early, so Yun Qi will definitely not sleep until dawn and wake up. If the eldest brother sleeps on the same bed with him, Yun Qi will wake up at night. Isn’t it embarrassing?”

"Second brother, what suggestions do you have?"

"The back hall of the government office is spacious and will not be used to receive guests today. Why not simply tidy it up and let Yun Qi rest there so that my eldest brother and I can stay together."

"Very good." Liu Bei nodded after hearing this.

Zhang Fei was stunned when he heard this, and quickly asked: "What about me? I sleep in the back hall at night, right? Everyone just happened to be talking."

"As my eldest brother said just now, my third brother snores loudly at night, which may disturb Yunqi's rest..." Guan Yu turned away from looking at Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei immediately stopped and said reluctantly: "That won't work, eldest brother, and the second brother are both in the back hall, I don't want to sleep alone."

"Third brother, be careful, don't wake up Yun Qi." Seeing Zhang Fei's body swinging wildly, Liu Bei rushed forward to help him hold him up. Then he stopped Guan Yu and said, "There are so many people making a lot of noise, so it's better for my brother to accompany Yun Qi at night." Stay in the back hall, second brother, you and third brother can go talk to each other."

"Ah?" Guan Yu felt helpless, so he lowered his head and clasped his fists in response: "Wei."

Liu Bei then signaled to Zhang Fei: "Third brother, quickly carry Yunqi to the back hall. Be careful to walk slowly and don't trip over the threshold."

"I didn't drink, so I wouldn't be tripped. Besides, the clouds don't sink even when they rise. I think this kid will still grow taller." Zhang Fei replied cheerfully.

Liu Bei couldn't help but sigh, "Yes, he is only sixteen years old, what are we sixteen doing..."

Seeing Liu Bei's sadness, Guan Yu hurriedly offered words of comfort: "Brother, why do you have to belittle yourself? When you were sixteen years old, you were also a famous figure in Hebei."

"Well..." Liu Bei nodded lightly, "You have settled Yun Qi and his two followers. I have to leave the house now."

"Wei." Guan Yu and Zhang Fei said in unison.

Long Xiang fell asleep from noon until he opened his eyes at midnight, sleeping for a full six hours.

The night was completely silent, and Long Xiang started to look at everything in darkness, wondering where he was.

"Yunqi is awake?"

Liu Bei's familiar voice came from the darkness. In order to give Longxiang a safe and quiet environment, he ordered guards to keep all pedestrians away from the back hall area.

Because Liu Bei was hiding something in his heart, he didn't fall asleep at all after lying down at night. Long Xiang's slight noise just now was noticed by Liu Bei.

"Shijun? I am..."

"In the back hall of the government office, go back to sleep."

"The general's companion?"

"Yun Chang has settled down."

"What time is it now?"

"It's just past midnight, and it's still early before dawn."

"Oh... let them sleep for another two hours and then set off on their journey in time."

"So urgent?"

"Ji Ling's army is coming soon. I have to avoid him and Lu Bu. I am also worried that the situation on the fleet will change. I can clean up the mess by going back early."

Liu Bei was greatly moved when he heard this. He not only admired Long Xiang's caution, but also admired his love for Bu Qu. He then added: "Then Yun Qi will sleep a little longer, and I will call you when the Yin time comes."

"At the end of the day, I have had enough sleep, so I will wait until Yin Shi, so that you don't have to worry about me and just fall asleep."

"Bei has had enough sleep, why not take this opportunity to talk? I'll go hold the lamp right away."

Liu Bei couldn't help but sit up, then touched the table and lit the lamp, and the room instantly became bright.

When Liu Bei lit the lamp, because it was so close to the fire, the shadow cast by it looked particularly huge. At that moment, Long Xiang suddenly sighed in his heart and couldn't help but uttered: "You are really a hero..."

"Hero?" Liu Bei shook his head and sat in front of Long Xiang, and laughed at himself: "Yun Qi once praised Liu Bei at noon, saying that I am the only wise master among the princes. It is really a big mistake..."

Long Xiang rubbed his eyes and was about to say something to comfort him when he heard Liu Bei continue: "Back then, when the Yellow Turbans were in chaos, heroes rose up together. My second brother and my third brother took advantage of the situation and raised armies. It has been more than ten years now. My old friend Yuan Shao,

Gongsun Zan, Cao Cao and others have all divided the city, but Liu Bei has not achieved anything yet. He is wasting his time living in Xiaopei. Can a person like me really achieve great things?"

"You don't have to be discouraged. If you don't have a hidden dragon, don't use it. If you see a dragon in the field, working all day long, or jumping in the abyss, the flying dragon in the sky will not be valuable. At least in the eyes of the last general, you will be a prince."

The only bright master in the world, it’s just that the opportunity hasn’t come yet.” Long Xiang looked serious.

Liu Bei smiled bitterly: "Opportunity? Will it come again?"

Long Xiang said sonorously: "Of course I will. Of all the princes in the world, the only one who can help the Han Dynasty is the envoy."

"Although the future is bleak, I still want to thank Yun Qi for his good words. I don't know when we will see each other again after we say goodbye today..." Liu Bei stood up and bowed his hands, his eyes were crystal clear, and tears seemed to be pouring in.

Long Xiang stood up quickly, held Liu Bei's arm, and said in fear: "How dare you accept this great gift from your envoy?"

Liu Bei was about to show his humility when he saw Long Xiang bowing his head and saying: "I have made you benevolent, righteous and humble, and I will pay my respects to my lord here. When Yuan Shu is defeated in the future, and the surrounding situation is relatively stable, he can bring his troops and family members to join him...

"

"Okay, okay..." Liu Bei was very excited when he saw Long Xiang recognized his master.

Long Xiang took the vaccine first: "My lord, it may take a few years to wait..."

"What's wrong with waiting for a few years? I'm just worried that...I'll live up to your expectations..." Liu Bei's resolute eyes flashed with a trace of unconfidence, because Long Xiang praised him to the sky.

That flash of unconfidence was keenly captured by Long Xiang. He was worried that his sudden appearance would affect Liu Bei's mood, which would in turn affect his subsequent development. He even regretted that he had praised so harshly just now. After all, praise can be fatal.

of.

"We will part ways when we meet Yin. Finally, there is a hometown saying that seems to make sense, and I want to speak it out to my lord." Long Xiang felt that he had to make a patch.

Liu Bei's face was full of curiosity: "Hometown dialect?"

Long Xiang nodded solemnly and said slowly: "If there is a will, things will come true. If the cauldron sinks the boat, one hundred and two Qin Passes will eventually belong to Chu; if you work hard, man and nature will not let you down; if you lie on the salary and taste the courage, three thousand Yue Jia can swallow Wu."

Liu Bei's eyes widened when he heard this, and he thought that this native dialect was not only reasonable, it was simply deafening, okay?
