"Marquis Wen, my lord is very anxious right now, but Liu Qi is eating and drinking here, which is somewhat inappropriate."
Liu Qi can still afford to drink wine now. He is eager to get his wings and fly back to Yanzhou. Liu Bei will never be stingy with rewards for such great achievements.
"My lord, what Liu Qi said is true. You can have a drink anytime you want. The key now is the union of the two families."
Seeing that Lu Bu still wanted to stay, Zhang Liao quickly stood up and clasped his fists at him.
"Okay, if that's the case, I won't keep you here. I'll wait until I get to Yanzhou to talk about everything."
After hearing Zhang Liao's words, Lu Bu also gave up his plan to retain Liu Qi.
"Thank you Marquis Wen. Then Liu Qi will take his leave."
After hearing Lu Bu's release, Liu Qi had nothing to say and just clasped his fists and saluted him to say goodbye.
"Okay, Wen Yuan will send Liu Qi off for me."
"promise."
Yongzhou Chang'an
"Generals, Liu Bei of Yanzhou has sent an envoy to see you."
Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji and Fan Chou were drinking when suddenly some guards rushed to report.
"Liu Bei?
Why did he send people to Chang'an?"
Li Jue stopped the wine cup in his hand and looked at the bodyguard with doubts on his face.
"What else can Liu Bei do when he comes?
He is attacking Yanzhou now, and he just wants to ask us to give him a Yanzhou Mu Dangdang to rectify his name."
Guo Bang glanced at Li Jue and showed no interest in Liu Bei's envoy.
"Well, Liu Bei is just a small person. He first served under Gongsun Zan, and then Yuan Shu defeated Gongsun Zan. Seeing that Yuan Shu was strong, he abandoned Gongsun and went to Yuan Shu, and then betrayed Yuan Shu and fought for Yanzhou with Cao Cao. I, Fan Chou, can't stand this type of villain the most.
."
When he heard Guo Si talking, Fan Chou, who was close to Guo Si, also started to ridicule Liu Bei.
"Brother Zhiran, I think his coming here is not that simple. Now Yuan Shu and Cao Cao are fighting for hegemony in Xuzhou. The next step is probably to attack Yanzhou. Otherwise, call Jia Wenhe and meet his envoy together."
Among these people, only Zhang Ji was the most steady, and he immediately thought of the war at Yuan Shu's place.
"Guo Si, how do you feel?"
Among the four Xiliang generals who counterattacked Chang'an, Li Jue and Guo Si were still respected, so naturally he would not make the decision on his own.
"Well, please, please. I want to see what Liu Bei is up to."
After hearing Li Jue's words, Guo Bang had nothing else to say. He couldn't let Li Jue lose face in public.
"Go and invite Jia Wenhe to come over and discuss matters."
"promise."
Li Jue's guards immediately went to Jia Xu's mansion after receiving the order.
"I am here on the orders of General Chariot and Cavalry to invite Zuo Fengyi to come over to discuss matters."
After Jia Xu followed Li Jue and Guo Si to counterattack Chang'an, Li Jue applied for the title of Zuo Fengyi from the imperial court in order to appease Jia Xu and ask him to help him.
"My adults have been waiting at the house for a long time. I will inform you right away."
After hearing what the guard said, Mending smiled slightly, but what he said made the guard stunned.
"Wait a minute, you said Zuo Fengyi has already been waiting?"
The guard asked the doorman confused.
"Yes, today my lord heard that Liu Bei's envoy had arrived in Chang'an, and told us that he was already ready and could leave as soon as he came to invite you."
In fact, Mending was also very confused about Jia Xu's words, but as soon as the guards came, he already understood that his master was really good at predicting things.
"Well, since Zuo Fengyi is ready, let him come to the government with me to discuss matters."
Although the guards were also surprised when they found out, it was not unexpected now. After all, four generals were waiting for Li Jue.
"alright, please wait."
As soon as the doorman entered, he saw the neatly dressed Jia Xu walking out in a hurry.
"Zuo Fengyi, General Chariot and Cavalry invites you."
When the guards saw Jia Xu, they quickly saluted him.
"I understand, let's go."
Jia Xu nodded to the guards, then boarded the carriage that had been prepared and ran towards the Cavalry General's Mansion.
"Wen He, Liu Bei's envoy came to Chang'an. I don't know what he came for."
Seeing Jia Xu coming, Li Jue immediately spoke to him.
"Liu Bei is here just to protect himself."
Jia Xu smiled slightly when he heard Li Jue's words.
"Self-protection?
You mean Yuan Shu, who is currently fighting against Cao Cao in Xuzhou?"
When Jia Xu said this, it was a sure thing.
"Well, Yuan Shu has many generals and strong strength. Now he has a large army pressing down on the border. It will be difficult for Cao Cao to resist him if he is strong enough. If he is a smart man, he will definitely go south to Yangzhou to avoid disaster.
Yangzhou Chen Wen cannot resist Cao Cao and will definitely accept him, and Yuan Shu's first target after taking Xuzhou will definitely be Yanzhou, so Liu Bei will send people to Chang'an."
Jia Xu nodded to Li Jue, indicating that what he said was correct.
"Yuan Shu is powerful and Liu Bei is nothing compared to him. I think that envoy should just cut off his head and send it to Jizhou."
When Guo Bang heard Jia Xu's words, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes. After all, when Dong Zhuo was at the height of his power, he was beaten by Yuan Shu and fled to Chang'an in embarrassment.
Although they now own Chang'an City and have tens of thousands of mercenaries, he is still very scared if they really have to face Yuan Shu.
"General Hou, you can't say that. Although it is difficult for Liu Bei to resist Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu is now at the top of his power. If he really captures Yanzhou, then he will be sitting on the land of six states. In this case, it won't take a few years for the Han Dynasty to conquer
It fell into the hands of Yuan Shu."
Jia Xu shook his head, indirectly rejecting Guo Si's proposal.
"You mean we need to send troops to help Liu Bei?
May he stabilize Yanzhou so that he can serve as our barrier against Yuan Shu?
Will this offend Yuan Shu?"
Li Jue looked at Jia Xu and couldn't help but frown. After all, his opponent was Yuan Shu, and he was actually very frightened.
"It is not impossible to help Liu Bei without offending Yuan Shu."
After hearing Li Jue's words, Jia Xu still looked the same, as if everything was under control.
"How to say?"
Jia Xu's words made everyone full of expectations, because Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe had never let them down.
"I have made up my mind about this, but how to implement it can only be decided after seeing Liu Bei's envoy."
Jia Xu, on the other hand, smiled and said nothing, and gave up a small barrier first.
"Then let Liu Bei's envoy come in to see you."
Since Jia Xu said so, they didn't need to say anything here. Li Jue directly decided to let Liu Bei's envoy in.
"promise."
After a while, I saw the guards leading Liu Bei's envoy into the hall.
"Liu Bei's envoy Liu Cen met with several generals. He has long heard that these generals are wise and powerful, and they are all heroes of the world. Now that they have met, it is really better to meet them than to meet them."
Liu Cen entered the room and looked at the room full of Xiliang generals. He quickly bowed his head in greeting and began to compliment them.
"Okay, we Xiliang people like to be straightforward. Don't give me any nonsense. Just tell me why Liu Bei wants you to come to Chang'an."
Hearing Liu Cen's words, Li Jue couldn't help but frowned. He hated such smooth talkers the most.
"My lord sent me here firstly to see the generals, and secondly to ask for something."
