Beast King Three Kingdoms

Chapter 123 Undercurrent!

I have to say that Liu Bei's performance this time was very successful.

The words full of temptation, the realistic expression, the combination of the two is simply invincible.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's blood was boiling with enthusiasm, and they could not wait to go into battle to kill the enemy immediately.

Chen Deng was also infected by it, his heart was agitated, his disappointment was swept away, and he was full of confidence in Liu Bei again.

After a while, Chen Deng calmed down and said: "My lord's words are true! Right now we are not strong enough, so it is really not suitable to start a war with Yuan Shu. On the contrary, we can buy enough time for us to accumulate strength by repairing with Yuan Shu."

One sentence changed Chen Deng's mind, Liu Beizhi can see it.

"Fix the bird! If Yuan Shu's thief dares to come, my second brother and I will definitely kill him." Zhang Fei yelled.

Liu Bei glared at Zhang Fei.

Immediately, the eggplants that Zhang Fei had beaten like frost—were wilting, he bowed his head and dared not speak again.

Seeing this, Liu Bei winked at Guan Yu again.

Guan Yu understood and turned to comfort Zhang Fei.

After a while, Zhang Fei swept away his depression, and became fierce again.

After comforting Zhang Fei, Liu Bei turned to Chen Deng and asked, "Who does Yuan Long think it is better to send?"

Chen Deng thought for a while, and replied: "Fan Gongyou (Sun Qianzi) was an envoy before, and he had a face-to-face meeting with Yuan Shu, so I might send him there again this time."

Liu Bei nodded slightly, and the candidate in his mind was also Sun Qian.

"Tomorrow in the courtroom, I will raise this matter and discuss it with everyone."

The reason why he didn't decide on this was because he considered other people's ideas.

You must know that Liu Bei's use of Chen Deng and his son has already aroused dissatisfaction in Xuzhou. If he continues to act arbitrarily, I am afraid that he will really attack him.

After thinking about it for a while, Chen Deng guessed what Liu Bei meant, but he didn't mind.

……

The next day, everyone in Xuzhou gathered together.

After chattering for a while, Liu Bei suddenly said: "I first took charge of Xuzhou, and I want to make good friends with my neighbors. What do you think?"

Everyone didn't understand what Liu Bei meant, and they were all silent.

After a long time, I saw Chen Deng come out and say: "My lord! Xuzhou is adjacent to Qingzhou, Yanzhou, and Yangzhou. Kong Rong and Tian Kai in Qingzhou are all good friends with the lord. You only need to send more gifts so that you don't make strangers; Cao Cao in Yanzhou recognizes me. Xuzhou killed his old father, and he has a deep hatred, sending envoys will only anger Cao Cao, thinking that the lord is ridiculing, and the subordinates think that Cao Cao will ignore it."

After a pause, Chen Deng's eyes flashed brightly, and said: "Yangzhou is now owned by Pingnan General Yuan Shu, but there are many misunderstandings between him and Xuzhou, my lord, I will send people there to rebuild the old one."

"Yeah!" Liu Bei nodded slightly, and said, "I also know about this matter. Mr. Tao had repented before he was alive, and he did not hesitate to cede Xu Nan to stop the war. It shows his intentions."

The two sang together, and everyone finally understood that Liu Bei was planning to show Yuan Shu a favor.

"Everyone! Who would like to go to Shouchun as an envoy to pass on the meaning of Xuzhou to me." Liu Bei asked everyone.

Sun Gan stepped forward and said, "This subordinate is willing to go."

A smile appeared on Liu Bei's face, just about to agree.

Suddenly, Mi Zhu came out and said, "This subordinate is willing to go with me."

"Uh!" Liu Bei was taken aback, and looked at Mi Zhu in surprise, not knowing what he was planning.

Speaking of Liu Bei's ability to take control of Xuzhou, Mi Zhu contributed a lot.

However, Mi Zhu's talents are mediocre. Although he is very good at financial management, Xuzhou is rich and has a lot of money and food in stock, so he doesn't need to add more flowers.

After receiving Chen Deng's command, Liu Bei put Mi Zhu aside.

After thinking about it, Liu Bei felt that he had treated Mi Zhu badly, so he said, "In this case, Zizhong and Gongyou will go on an envoy together, and we must make peace with Yuan Shu."

"Your subordinates obey!" Mi Zhu and Sun Qian said in unison.

Chen Deng took a deep look at Mi Zhu, secretly guessing his intentions.

At this time, Liu Bei saw that the matter had been settled, so he ordered everyone to disperse.

Chen Deng put away his thoughts and walked home.

Back home, Chen Deng changed his clothes and went to find his father.

When he came to the room, he saw that Chen Gui was holding a roll of bamboo slips in his hand, studying them carefully, looking very energetic, not at all sick.

"Father!" Chen Deng bowed.

"En!" Chen Gui responded lightly, and asked, "How?"

"It's been decided. Mi Zhu and Sun Qian will be sent as envoys, and they will leave soon." Chen Deng replied.

"Mi Zhu?" Chen Gui frowned, wondering, "Is he also a messenger?"

"He asked for his own order to go." Chen Deng said.

Chen Gui lowered his head and thought for a while, then said with a sneer, "Businessmen's habits are hard to change, and they won't be successful in the end."

"What do you mean by father's words?" Chen Deng asked doubtfully.

Chen Gui cast a glance at Chen Deng, and asked, "Why do you think Mi Zhu asked for his life this time?"

Chen Deng was at a loss, shook his head and said, "I don't know."

"Stupid!" Chen Gui cursed, and said, "Business and trade prospered under Yuan Shu's rule, and Mi Zhu was originally a merchant. What do you think he intends to go to Shouchun?"

"This..." Chen Deng hesitated. He felt that the old man's thinking seemed too simple. He knew Mi Zhu quite well. He was a talented person, so he probably wouldn't ask for his life to go to Shouchun just for the sake of business.

Looking at Chen Deng's expression, Chen Gui knew that he was not convinced, and sighed: "You! Sometimes you just think too complicated about the problem."

"I also ask my father to give me some advice!" Chen Deng cupped his hands.

Chen Gui analyzed: "Liu Bei came to Xuzhou, and now he is in charge of Xuzhou. Mi Zhu has contributed. It can be seen that he is very optimistic about Liu Bei! These days, Liu Bei has you as his assistant, and he has gradually begun to alienate him. He must be unhappy? But his talent It’s really not as good as you, so I can only find another way.”

Speaking of this, Chen Gui asked Chen Deng: "Think about Mi Zhu, a merchant, where would he start if he wanted to recover from the disadvantage?"

Chen Deng thought for a while and said, "Money?"

"That's right!" Chen Gui stroked his long beard lightly, and said lightly, "But this matter is not easy! You must know that Xuzhou is rich and prosperous, and Liu Bei may not care about the things of the Mi family, unless..."

Chen Gui stopped when enough was enough, and looked at Chen Deng, not without the intention of trying to teach.

Chen Deng understood, and said, "Unless the Mi family's wealth reaches the point where it is incomparably rich, people cannot ignore it."

"En!" Chen Gui nodded in satisfaction, and asked, "How is it? Now do you understand why Mi Zhu asked for his order to go to Shouchun?"

"I understand!"

Chen Deng looked at his father with admiration, and thought, "Sure enough, ginger is still old and spicy."

It has to be said that Chen Gui's vision is indeed vicious, but unfortunately he guessed wrong this time, causing Xuzhou to fall into a huge predicament in the future, of course, this is a later story.

At that moment, Chen Deng was silent for a moment, looked up at his father, and said, "Father! My son, Liu Bei is indeed a rare enlightened master. Why does father..."

Before he finished speaking, Chen Gui interrupted him with a wave of his hand, saying, "I never said that Liu Bei is bad, but he wants my Chen family to help him with all his strength, and the current performance alone is not enough."

Chen Deng was speechless, he was really optimistic about Liu Bei, but his father always had reservations, so he lied that he was sick, stayed at home all day studying poetry and books, and almost lived a life of seclusion.

"Alas!" The old man was firm, and Chen Deng had no choice but to sigh, and stopped persuading him.
