Xuande

Chapter 2 Guan Yu admires Liu Bei very much
Zhuo County is the Zhuo County of Zhuo County people.

It can also be said to be the Zhuo County of Zhuo County people.

If it really doesn't work, if you insist on saying that it is the Zhuo County of Youzhou people, it can barely get a certain degree of recognition.

The only thing is that it is not Zhuo County, the son of Luoyang.

This is no exaggeration.

I don't know when it started. If an official sent by the Luoyang court cannot be accepted by the locals and does not abide by the rules of the game of the locals, it is not uncommon for them to be directly expelled by the local crowd.

The Luoyang imperial court often stared at this indifferently, unable to come up with effective countermeasures.

When the central government is weak, the local government is strong, as if the disintegration of the world is imminent.

Therefore, if such a thing happened to Su Shuang's one hundred horses, within the scope of Zhuo County, if not Liu Bei, who else could he turn to?
So Su Shuang pursed her lips and smiled, but didn't answer.

"A small gift, 20 taels of gold, is not a respect. After the matter is completed, Su will have another generous reward, which will definitely satisfy Xuande."

"20 taels of gold? Selling horses is really beneficial."

Liu Bei remained calm, stretched out his hand to bring the box, took out a gold ingot to weigh it a few times, felt the heavy feel, put the wooden box away calmly, and finally showed a smile on his face.

"It's 20 taels of gold to make a casual move, and the emperor Luoyang is no more than that. Is Su Jun digging a gold mountain or is he hugging a gold mine?"

Seeing Liu Bei accepting the gold ingot with a charming smile, Su Shuang also showed a pervasive smile on his fleshy face—maybe that's how he smiled, and there was no malice.

"The price of horses in the northern states is the same. The further south you go, the higher the price of horses. After crossing the river to Jiangdong and Jingchu, the price of horses doubles. It is not like a horse, but like gold that can run. "

Liu Bei was not surprised by this.

He nodded and said slowly: "The prices of commodities are different in different places. Rare things are the most expensive. Everything is the least valuable in the place of production. The farther away, the more valuable it is, just like a peach from Hebei. If it is placed in Jiangnan, the price will definitely be different."

Hearing this, Su Shuang paused for a while, showing reverence on his face.

"Xuande is worthy of being a disciple of great Confucianism. Rare things are valuable. These five words... really lay bare the foundation of our business! Su has been taught!"

Su Shuang straightened her clothes and bowed respectfully to Liu Bei again.

Liu Bei was taken aback for a moment, then realized something immediately, and smiled, not taking it seriously.

"It's just a fluke to study with the teacher for a period of time. The teacher didn't think I was stupid, and taught me everything I have learned. I am grateful."

"Xuande is too modest. It is still possible for a great Confucian like Lu Gong to be a disciple, so why would he casually accept someone as a disciple?"

Su Shuang looked at Liu Bei's complexion, and tentatively said cautiously: "When Su asked someone to inquire in Zhuo County, he accidentally learned that Xuande was about to be promoted to Xiaolian. I wonder if there is such a thing?"

Liu Bei just smiled.

"I just got crowned as an adult a month ago. I don't have any achievements of size. How can I be filial? It's just a rumor among the people in the county. It can't be true."

Su Shuang was not easily fooled by Liu Bei and smiled softly.

"Su was selling horses in the south of the Yangtze River last year and traveled to Jiujiang County. He happened to hear that Xuande followed Lu Gong in Jiujiang to fight against barbarians and saved Lu Gong's life. This matter was widely discussed in the local area. I don't know. Is there such a thing?"

"Ah, this..."

Hearing what Su Shuang said, Liu Bei suddenly remembered that Su Shuang was selling horses in the south of the Yangtze River.

Four years ago, when he was 15 years old, he was recommended by his uncle Liu Bo and Liu Yuanqi to join Lu Zhi, a great Confucian in the same county, and studied with Lu Zhi on Goushi Mountain near Luoyang City.

Not long after, a rebellion broke out in Jiujiang County. The imperial court transferred Lu Zhi to be the prefect of Jiujiang to quell the rebellion. No.

It is equivalent to giving everyone an explanation, and actually disbanding this group of students.

When Liu Bei learned that Lu Zhi was going to Jiujiang to quell the rebellion, he immediately expressed his willingness to follow the teacher on the saddle. Lu Zhi refused at first, thinking it was dangerous. Later, Liu Bei knelt on the ground and begged repeatedly, so he agreed to take him and listen to him.

Later, Lu Zhi led his army to fight against the Jiujiang rebels. During this period, he took a small number of guards to personally investigate the situation of the rebels. He was discovered by the rebels and chased him fiercely, almost desperate.

At that time, only Liu Bei led his troops to meet him out of worry, and found that Lu Zhi was in danger, so he rescued Lu Zhi regardless of his own life, and was shot three arrows for this.

For this reason, Lu Zhi paid more attention to Liu Bei, taught Liu Bei with the scriptures and military books he had read, and allowed Liu Bei to copy it and take it home, study it carefully, and formally accepted him as a disciple, not just a disciple.

In contrast, the current students on Mount Goushi can only be regarded as disciples, because they have not received direct education from Lu Zhi, and only Liu Bei has become Lu Zhi's real disciple, and his status is immediately different from ordinary people.

Later, this matter was only circulated in Lu Zhi's circle of friends and Jiujiang locality, and it was impossible to spread it so widely, but if Su Shuang had been to Jiujiang County, he would definitely know about it.

So Liu Bei could only smile and nod in recognition.

"It's true that it happened, and it was an emergency at the time, so I'm not allowed to think otherwise."

"It's no wonder that Xuande's youth became famous and everyone praised him. Given time, Xuande's future is immeasurable!"

Su Shuang looked at Liu Bei with bright eyes, that eager gaze made Liu Bei quite depressed.

This Su Shuang seemed to rush forward, as if she was a stunning beauty exuding fatal charm.

Why does it feel like he didn't come to find himself to solve the trouble because he lost something, but to find himself to solve the trouble?

In order to build a relationship, as for?
Changing his thinking, Liu Bei suddenly felt that he had discovered a Huadian that he had not discovered before.

So when he looked at Su Shuang again, he suddenly felt that there was an inexplicable dark color on this burly man with a big smile.

After the matter was settled, Liu Bei did not send Su Shuang to the door of the mansion, but to the door of the living room.

"As for the matter of the horse team, don't worry, Mr. Su. I will take care of it within five days if I receive money from others and eliminate disasters from others. After five days, I will send someone to return all the horses by the small river three miles east of the county seat. People in Zhuo County will still give this little thin noodles."

Su Shuang was very grateful, and bowed again, saying that if the matter is done, he will definitely send a generous gift.

Liu Bei smiled.

"Yide, see off the guests."

"only!"

Zhang Fei, a tall young man standing outside the hall, took Liu Bei's order and led Su Shuang out of Liu Bei's mansion.

Looking at the back of Su Shuang leaving, scenes of the past came to mind, causing Liu Bei to sigh slightly.

"Brother, why are you sighing? This matter is not difficult, right?"

Guan Yu, who was standing on the other side, walked up to Liu Bei, and said in a low voice: "The people who did this must be Cheng Dazhi and his group. My brother sent someone to tell me. Don't they dare to insist? It's not the same now, Cheng Dazhi has also received your kindness, so he dare not act recklessly."

"Of course I know that Cheng Dazhi doesn't dare to fight me hard, so I'm not sighing because of it."

Liu Bei turned his head and looked at Guan Yu kindly: "I am satisfied with the results of my hard work all the time. Su Shuang is also a well-known horse merchant in Youzhou. He always comes to me when he has difficulties." , doesn't it mean that my reputation is not the same as it used to be?"

As one of Liu Bei's closest friends, Guan Yu certainly knows how difficult Liu Bei's journey has been.

"Brother, you have worked hard."

"For yourself, for the future, why bother? If such a person is not willing to work hard for himself, what's the point of living?"

Liu Bei shook his head and said with a smile: "For the ambition in my heart, no matter how much I pay, it is worth it."

Guan Yu thought so.

The reason why he admired Liu Bei so much was that Liu Bei was born in an ordinary family, but with his unremitting efforts, he overcame countless difficulties and obstacles, and finally became the son-in-law of Han Taishou in Zhuo County.

Now it seems that Xiaolian is going to be promoted as an official, and his fate will be changed from then on, and Tengyun will go straight up.

Once he officially became an official, Liu Bei's life path will be completely different from before relying on the early stage and Lu Zhi's interpersonal relationship. Of course, their group of Liu Bei's cronies will also be able to ride the clouds and go straight all the way, and also change their own destiny.

What an inspiring and powerful man!
Only by following him can the future be changed!
Guan Yu, who was forced to flee to Youzhou with a life lawsuit on his back, firmly believed in this point.
