Chapter 240: Solve Liu Bei's doubts
Liu Bei, on the other hand, slowly turned his head after hearing Xu Shu's voice.
When he saw the two people standing in front of him, he was stunned and stunned.
He couldn't believe his eyes, so he suddenly stood up from his seat and walked towards Xu Shu.
Then without waiting to ask, he held Xu Shu's hands tightly with both hands, and some tears actually appeared in his eyes.
"Yuan Zhi, is it you? This is not my imagination..."
His voice was full of excitement and expectation.
At this time, Xu Shu no longer needed to hide it. He was also very excited and said: "My lord, it's me, Xu Shu is back! After four years, Xu Shu misses my lord day and night!"
"I miss Yuan Zhi day and night. I didn't expect God to sense my sincerity and let Yuan Zhi return! Come and sit down."
Liu Bei's excitement made him forget that there were other people around him, and he even forgot about Liu Chan, who had shocked him just now.
However, Xu Shu was not dazzled by joy like Liu Bei. He was very sober at the moment. He quickly said: "My lord does not know something. The reason why my subordinates can come back smoothly this time is all due to the wisdom of the young master."
It's Liu Bei's business to be happy, but he can't ignore Liu Chan's existence.
After these two months of getting along, Xu Shu has discovered that Liu Chan is like an adult. The biggest difference between adults and children is that they take many things very seriously.
These include concern about one's own sense of existence and displeasure with others taking over the spotlight.
At this time, Xu Shu must not be the person who takes the spotlight.
"Um?"
Liu Bei looked at Liu Chan with a puzzled look on his face and made a heavy nasal sound.
Then he smiled and said: "Yuan Zhi is joking, A Dou is less than seven years old, how can he be so resourceful?"
In his opinion, a child under seven years old is already "naughty" enough here. It is understandable for Xu Shu to say such things in order to "excuse" Liu Chan.
But in his mind, he didn't believe Liu Chan really had any intelligence at all.
Xu Shu immediately understood what Liu Bei was thinking, and he quickly said: "My lord, don't think that my subordinates are joking. This is absolutely true, and the young master has a big surprise for me!"
Hearing what Xu Shu said, although Liu Bei still didn't believe it at all, he had to put on a show to reassure Xu Shu.
He stepped forward and said, "Adou, what gift do you have to give to your father?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the tent locked their eyes on Liu Chan.
Among them were Pang Tong and Fazheng, who had been looking at Liu Chan for a long time. Their faces were full of curiosity about this "future lord".
Liu Chan was waiting to surprise Liu Bei and look at him with admiration. He said seriously: "If I can bring Xun Wenruo to Jingzhou to serve my father, would this be considered a big surprise?"
Halfway through what he said, Liu Bei's brows were already deeply furrowed. At this time, Liu Chan took out Xun Yu's letter and handed it to Liu Bei.
When Liu Bei saw the note handed over by Liu Chan, he did not rush to ask questions, but took it over with a puzzled look and read it carefully.
But there weren't many words on the note, so he read it all in one go.
Then he waved his hand and handed the note to Pang Tong and Fazheng who were standing aside. Then he stared into Liu Chan's "bold" eyes and remained silent.
After a long time, he said seriously: "Is this true?"
He really couldn't believe how someone like Xun Yu, a close friend of Cao Cao, could switch to his command.
Liu Chan did not answer in a hurry, but took out another piece of paper and handed it to Liu Bei.
Then he smiled and said, "Father, please look at this picture again."
Liu Bei frowned, suppressed his curiosity, and read it again. This note was a report from Zhao Tong that Liu Chan had just received.
There are only these words on it: "On October 29th, Xun Lingjun has entered Lujiang County with the "Qianlong Army". Please send a boat to welcome it. Zhao Tong's own handwriting."
So Liu Bei only glanced at it and handed the note to Pang Tong and Fazheng.
Liu Chan smiled and said: "Now, maybe the father believes what the child said?"
Although he only smiled slightly, Liu Bei and everyone were even more surprised.
Liu Bei still frowned and asked: "Xun Yu is a close official of Cao Cao. How did you do it?"
Liu Chan smiled and said: "To answer my father's question, I need to first talk about another thing that may be called a surprise."
"What's up?"
Liu Bei tried his best to suppress his curiosity and asked in a calm tone.
Liu Chan said seriously: "Father, do you still remember Xun Chen and Xun Youruo?"
When Liu Bei heard this, he didn't think much and blurted out: "Xun Youruo is also a talented person as famous as Xun Yu. Does he have anything to do with this matter?"
Liu Chan said with a smile: "My father didn't know something. After his father entered Shu, my son accidentally got Mr. Youruo. He is now in Jingzhou, working with Mr. Kong Ming to appease the refugees and expand the strength of our army."
When Liu Bei heard this, he was surprised and said: "What? How come such an important thing happened, but there was no mention of it in the letter sent by Kong Ming?"
This was Liu Bei's intention to blame Zhuge Liang, and Liu Chan immediately reacted.
He quickly explained: "Firstly, this is Mr. Youruo's intention. Secondly, the child also wants to wait for Mr. Youruo to make some achievements before reporting to his father. So I asked Mr. Kong Ming not to report to his father for the time being, and also asked his father not to
Mr. Kong Ming must be blamed."
Liu Bei now relied heavily on Zhuge Liang. How could he really blame Zhuge Liang for such a small thing? He immediately said: "I see, but what does this matter have to do with Xun Wenruo's incident?"
Liu Chan said: "If Mr. Youruo hadn't told us that Xun Lingjun was a loyal minister who was dedicated to assisting the Han Dynasty, and that Cao Cao had been arrogant, Xun Lingjun expressed his dissatisfaction in his family letter to Mr. Youruo, and the two of them would have
There was a discord between face and heart. So when I dispatched the Qianlong Army to the areas under the jurisdiction of Cao Cao and Sun Quan, I made a special statement to pay special attention to Xun Lingjun's movements..."
He explained clearly the ins and outs of recruiting Xun Yu, and Liu Bei finally understood.
However, Liu Bei still had two doubts. He said seriously: "Then what's going on with the Hidden Dragon Army?"
Liu Chan explained: "Well! It was also my sudden idea to let the five thousand soldiers who stayed in Jingzhou..."
He told the story of the establishment of the Qianlong Army and his new method of training the army. Suddenly everyone in the tent looked at Liu Chan in surprise, unable to believe that these words were really spoken by a child under seven years old.
And even Xu Shu was full of surprise.
