The question left Cheng Dalei speechless. It had been some time since he joined Toad Village, and Cheng Dalei couldn't help but say that he wouldn't reuse him, but there was always a gap in his reuse.
Cheng Dalei could never trust He as much as he trusted Liu Bei and Qin Man. He was halfway through the process in Liangzhou, and everything big and small was managed by him, but Cheng Dalei still used Liu Bei to restrict him. He handed over Shuofang City to his management.
, and immediately sent Guan Yu to keep an eye on it.
Cheng Dalei treats He like this, He can't help but feel it.
Today I got straight to the point, and He took the initiative to tear away this layer of cloth.
Cheng Dalei finally had nothing to say.
He shook his head, kowtowed respectfully to Cheng Dalei on the ground, then stood up, patted the dirt on his knees, and turned to leave without saying goodbye.
Looking at his back, Cheng Dalei shook his head helplessly. Then, he sat down under the big tree and stroked the teapot on the table. A slight chill came from the wall of the pot.
When people leave... the tea is cool.
Cheng Dalei filled up the herbal tea, drank it all, and sighed softly.
…
He was in charge of Shuofang City, but he also had a resting place in Liangzhou City. After bidding farewell to Cheng Dalei, he led his horse back to his residence alone. The servants who were serving him saw that his face was not very good, and they did not dare to come forward to greet him.
He came to the study and stayed alone for a long time. He paced back and forth in the room, sometimes frowning in thought, sometimes sighing.
But he didn't really think about it for long, and he made a decision quickly. Afterwards, he took a deep breath and regained some energy on his face.
He leaned back in his chair and thought for a while, then took out his pen, ink, paper and inkstone, spread out the rice paper, and dipped it in thick ink.
Looking at the white paper in front of me, I don’t know where to start. I think I have a lot to say, but I don’t know where to start.
After a long time, he put down the ink pen as it was, looked at the rice paper in front of him and shook his head.
You just go, no matter what you say or don't say, it doesn't make much difference. Anyway, you have decided to leave, and no matter what you do, it will not change what has been decided.
When it got dark, He changed into casual clothes and asked his servants to prepare the horses. He led the horses and walked towards the city gate.
"Master, it's so late, where are you going?"
He bumped into Zhang Fei at the gate of the city and roared loudly, which made him startled and startled.
"Oh, it turns out to be General Zhang. I suddenly remembered that there is something going on in Shuofang City, and I have to rush back tonight."
"It's dark and the road is slippery. The road is not smooth. How about I send a few people to protect Mr. He?"
"No need, I can walk faster by myself. Under the rule of the great master, there are no blind thieves in Liangzhou."
"That's right." Zhang Fei chuckled twice and shouted in a rough voice: "Come here, please open the city gate for me."
The city is closed at night, and in this chaotic world, even the territory of Liangzhou is no exception. If He were not He's identity, and he happened to meet Zhang Fei, it would not be easy for He to leave the city.
The city gate opened, and he thanked Zhang Fei, then mounted his mount and disappeared into the night without stopping.
After opening the door and letting He go, the more Zhang Fei thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. He ordered people to close the city gate and quickly went to the city lord's mansion to ask for an audience with Cheng Dalei.
In the study, I saw Cheng Dalei who was dealing with trivial matters.
"Master, there was something just now. I don't know if I did something wrong?"
"Oh, what's the matter?"
"Tonight, the master ordered me to guard the east gate. Just now, I suddenly wanted to leave the city with you, so I let him go."
"Leaving?" Cheng Dalei paused, waved his hand and said, "Just leave as you go. You can't even stay with me."
"That's what I said, and my subordinates didn't stop me. It's just..." Zhang Fei thought for a while and said: "I told you that I have to go back to Shuofang City in an emergency, but if you want to go back to Shuofang City, you should go through the west gate or the north gate.
, but I went to the east gate with my lord and went in the opposite direction. Master, do you think this is weird?"
Cheng Dalei put down the book in his hand, raised his head and asked, "What do you think would be weird?"
"My subordinates dare not speak."
"But it doesn't matter?"
Zhang Fei then spoke up and said: "I don't have a good relationship with Lord He, and I can't say much about his character, but I admire his talent and learning very much. However, it's just... I still can't say anything about him.
"
Zhang Fei is both rough and fine, otherwise he would not be able to become the commander of an army. Cheng Dalei smiled and said: "Third Master, Third Master, I know what you are thinking. In this way, if you take a trip to Shuofang City, if you and Sir
We've already gone back, don't say anything, just say that you have something to do with Mr. Guan."
Zhang Fei nodded and said, "What if I don't go back?"
"Then Mr. Lao, order a team of people to recover Mr. He."
"Yes, but if we catch up and Master He doesn't want to come back, how about..." Zhang Fei made a gesture of wiping his neck, with a hint of cruelty in his eyes.
Cheng Dalei sighed, he really couldn't help He Na. Not only could he not trust He, but even Zhang Fei and others would kill He at any time.
Cheng Dalei waved to him and ordered him to come over and whisper a few words in his ear.
Zhang Fei's eyes opened wider and wider as he listened, and finally they were like bells. He looked at Cheng Dalei in surprise and said, "Master, do you really want to do this?"
Cheng Dalei nodded and said, "Let's do it. Go early and come back early."
Zhang Fei agreed and left the city overnight.
Cui Baiyu in the study watched this scene helplessly and said, "He left?"
Cheng Dalei nodded, sat back on the chair, and said: "The song is over and everyone is gone, and the tea is cold. If he wants to leave, I can't keep him."
Cui Baiyu frowned and thought for a while, then said: "Tonight, you suddenly ordered Zhang Fei to guard the city gate. You must have calculated that he would leave through the east gate. That means you wanted to let him go. In this case, why did you let Zhang Fei chase after him?
"
Cheng Dalei leaned on the back of his chair, frowning and thinking, and did not answer Cui Baiyu's words.
Cui Baiyu thought for a while and said: "No matter who he chooses to join, given his status in Liangzhou, it will be difficult for him to gain the trust of others. You deliberately sent Zhang Fei to chase him, and you thought it was a trick to show the world.
Let everyone in the world know that there is no relationship between you."
Cheng Dalei, who had closed his eyes to rest, suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Cui Baiyu with bright eyes.
"A woman can be smart, but if she is too thorough, she will often not end well."
"So, I was right."
Cheng Dalei kept silent, and after a while he said: "Brothers, it's time for them to come to an end. After tonight, our friendship will be over."
"Not only is our love gone, I'm afraid he will hate you forever. In any case, he has some feelings for Liangzhou, but you personally ruined this friendship."
"The person has already left. If you still have this little bit of thought left, what do you want to do? It's time to stop it."
"In your opinion, which company will He choose to join after leaving Liangzhou?"
Cheng Dalei thought for a moment and said, "Except for Jiangnan, I can't imagine where he would go."
