The first thousand two hundred and eighty-nine chapters are born with a straight waist
Chapter 1,289: Born with a straight back, unable to live under the roof of others
Wind blows--
The chill of winter seemed unable to dispel the tense atmosphere in the venue.
Everyone is staring closely at their opponents, fearing that something will go wrong again at this critical node.
Even Zhuge Liang...
After answering, Zhuge Liang glanced at Chen Dao and asked him to untie Zhao Yun's feet.
The meaning of Zhao Yun's words so far made Zhuge Liang very upset.
But... the fact is that for them now, if they have to choose between Pang Tong and Zhao Yun, no matter how many times they choose, the answer will be the same.
In this turbulent era, it is far better to invest resources in domestic affairs than to invest resources in the battlefield.
It can be said that Liu Beijun, who has Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, even if they are forced into a desperate situation again, they still have a chance to make a comeback.
So although Liu Bei said he was sorry, in fact he never opposed the decision to hand over Zhao Yun.
"General Zhao, come down... I have already untied you."
Chen Dao's expression was very ugly... For no other reason than Zhuge Liang's attitude towards a hero like Zhao Yun, no matter how big-hearted the generals are, they would probably feel uncomfortable.
It is true that Zhao Yun has a relationship with the man opposite Yi Xiaotian, but even so...Zhao Yun has still been conscientious in his work before and has never made any mistakes.
The reason why Chen Dao was so touched was probably because he and Zhao Yun had very similar identities. When he saw Zhao Yun, he would naturally think of himself, right?
Zhao Yun was finally put on the ground. Because Chen Dao had used a lot of force just now, Zhao Yun looked shaky after landing, and his legs and feet looked a little unsteady.
Zhao Yun did not look back. After landing, he stretched a bit and walked forward silently——
It is precisely because of this performance that Chen Dao feels unspeakably uncomfortable:
"Zhao...General Zhao..."
Chen Dao was a little surprised. When he came to his senses, he had already blurted out and called Zhao Yun...
Zhao Yun was a little confused, turned his head and looked at him:
"General Chen, what else can I do?"
The rag stuffed in his mouth has been removed. The reason why he doesn't speak seems to be due to his mood, right?
"I...I am the general who is acting according to orders...I have offended you so much..."
"I know, you don't have to take it to heart...if nothing happens, let's just say goodbye."
Looking at Zhao Yun's turning back and his unrelenting steps, Chen Dao couldn't say a word.
If... if their identities were exchanged, how would I feel now?
——
Zhao Yun slowly passed Zhuge Liang's mount.
Zhuge Liang looked at Zhao Yun coldly on his horse:
"Wait a moment, wait until the other side releases people too."
He asked Zhao Yun to stop because he saw Pang Tong and Wei Yan just getting up.
...On Yi Xiaotian's side, Sun Quan personally untied Wei Yan and Pang Tong, and also removed the rags from their mouths.
"Yi Xiaotian...General Sun and...all of you present, we will meet again sooner or later. I hope that by then, you will still be as relaxed as you are today -"
"Do you want to be beaten again?
Are you still going to leave?"
Pang Tong was naturally very happy - he felt that he had outmaneuvered Yi Xiaotian, forcing the other party to let him go... The key was that Zhao Yun, whom he had always suspected since he went to Jingnan to defect to Liu Bei, was now a
In order to redeem his bargaining chip, how could such a level of calculation come true if it wasn't destiny?
For a moment, Pang Tong really felt that what his master and his father-in-law Pang Degong said to him before he left the mountain - "This world requires the two of you to work together to change..." This sentence seemed to be true.
It came true.
He and Zhuge Liang may be the ones destined to end the troubled times...
but…
Sun Quan's answer was like that of a ruffian who didn't understand a thing but had a strong fist, forcing him to return to reality from his emotions.
"Go, let's go...don't...stop fighting..."
The stinging pain at the corner of his mouth was still there, and I had to say that this bastard Sun Quan was really merciless in beating people.
Pang Tong carefully looked around with his peripheral vision, and when he saw Sun Quan's angry eyes on the side, he couldn't help but tremble.
"Pfft..."
Wei Yan on the other side was finally untied. It felt good to be able to breathe through his mouth for the first time. He had been injured all the time and now he wished he could quickly return to the army and have his painful wounds bandaged.
Pang Tong...passed by Yi Xiaotian.
I originally planned to walk straight over, but...
In the end, he stopped in front of Yi Xiaotian.
This was the first time he saw Yi Xiaotian’s face face to face——
Just from the image of the man in front of you, it is difficult for you to tell what kind of power he has.
However, I have to praise Yi Xiaotian for looking clean and delicate - at least much better looking than him.
It's just that Pang Tong has lived for such a long time, so he has really forgotten about appearance.
What he cares about is whether Yi Xiaotian has a back-up plan - has the other party really been plotted by him?
Pang Tong's pause in front of Yi Xiaotian caught Yi Xiaotian's attention.
"Mr. Fengchu, do you have anything else to offer me?"
Yes...that's how it feels...
A trace of displeasure flashed across Pang Tong's face, and the muscles at the corners of his mouth twitched...
Looking at the calm face and calm tone of the man in front of him...Pang Tong even felt for a moment that he didn't win?
"Advice?
No...Dangtang Yi Xiaotian, is there anything you can give me advice on?
Before I leave, I just want to ask you one thing."
"But it doesn't matter."
Yi Xiaotian put his hands behind his back and raised his eyebrows slightly, not surprised.
"Cao Cao has now made a duke and established a country. As expected, the Han royal family has already fallen into Cao Cao's hands. With his wolfish ambition, I don't believe that he will not covet the position in the court. The four-hundred-year-old Han Dynasty has now reached the edge of the cliff... Even so
, you are a guy who keeps claiming that you are a businessman and not involved in government affairs, but now you are ambiguous with the enemies of Cao Cao who dominates the world..."
When he said this, Pang Tong glanced at Sun Quan and saw that Sun Quan was shocked...
Pang Tong snorted coldly and continued:
"Are you really not afraid that Cao Cao will find an excuse to accuse you at some point, and your so-called romantic deeds will eventually become the laughing stock of the world?"
"The reason why you are still standing here... is just because you are still useful to Cao Cao, but when it comes to this... that is, you released me and Wen Chang back to Jingnan just for a Liu family general named Zhao Yun.
When this incident reaches Cao Cao’s ears, do you really think he can still watch you quietly and disrupt the situation wantonly?"
"Yi Xiaotian...you are just a pawn. Anyone who tries to stand out in this troubled world will eventually be destroyed by arrogance——"
Pang Tong's words seemed to really point out the embarrassment of Yi Xiaotian's current situation.
Yes, in the past ten years or so, the names of Yi Xiaotian and Youjian Villa have resounded throughout the world, but in the final analysis, Yi Xiaotian has neither soldiers nor power—money?
In this troubled world, you can only use money if your superiors allow you to exist. No matter how much you have, it will only be the pity of others.
Pang Tong seemed to have seen through Yi Xiaotian——
"Do you want to be that Tao Zhugong?
After becoming successful and famous, he retired... Or maybe Su Qin, who united the six kingdoms and hung seals everywhere, wandered among the palaces and temples and did not mess with the smell of copper and blood. No matter what it is, I can only tell you, don't think too highly of it.
You, be careful if your head falls to the ground."
He turned around, leaving only a handsome back to everyone.
He believed that his words definitely hit the depths of Yi Xiaotian's soul.
But when he was complacent and had endless aftertaste, Yi Xiaotian replied:
"I was born with a straight back, and I can't live under the fence of others. Running around like this, walking with one pair of legs, and convincing with one mouth, it's better to be tiring... trembling, than to just put my head on the table for others to watch.
