Han emperor system

Chapter 5 Liu Bei's Careful Thoughts

"See Lord Hou."

Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei have meritorious deeds. Because they have no money to run the business, they are kept in trouble by the party members of Shi Changshi. They are a little tired of waiting in the post station, but suddenly a Habayashi army finds them, saying that they are young men. Lord Hou invited them over.

The three asked the Habayashi Army, but they couldn't find out which young master wanted to see them, but they thought that since they were young masters, they would naturally have a noble status and might be able to help them speak well in front of the saint, so they decided to coming.

However, looking at it at this moment, the little duke in front of him is actually a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old. Although he is extraordinary in appearance, gorgeous in clothes, and outstanding in bearing, he is far from a high-ranking court official they imagined. .

However, people had to bow their heads under the eaves. Although Zhang Fei was a bit reckless, he was not lacking in care, and Liu Bei and Guan Yu were more knowledgeable. They pulled Zhang Fei together to bow to Liu Bian and shouted loudly.

"Don't be polite, the three of you are really heroes, all of them are extraordinary in appearance, Liu Yingxiong looks like a man of great fortune and wealth, Guan Yingxiong's military art and wisdom are extraordinary, Zhang Yingxiong's momentum is like a rainbow like a god descending from the world, it is really my man Good generals and talented people. Come and serve fragrant tea."

Facing the three of Liu, Guan and Zhang, Liu Bian showed no fear at all. Instead, he stepped forward to look at the three of them carefully, and said to them one by one while looking at them. There was no shortage of good intentions.

"Young Lord, Bei and the other three brothers are all reckless men, and I hope you will forgive me for not being polite. We have never met Young Lord, so I don't know what you can learn from Young Lord calling us here?"

After Liu Bei became the royal family, he had also received some etiquette education since he was a child. In addition, he later studied under Lu Zhi, and he and Gongsun Zan were brothers in the same school.

"Three heroes, this is the Marquis's abruptness. I also heard from some court officials that the three had made great contributions in exterminating the Yellow Turban Bandits, but they were not able to get the reward because of the deliberate difficulties of the eunuchs and ten regular servants. , I really wronged the three of you, on behalf of the people of the Great Han Dynasty, I would like to thank the three heroes for their great achievements, please believe the three heroes, the imperial court will definitely reward you generously."

"Hmph, can you represent the common people in the great Han world? Who do you think you are?" Zhang Fei was impatient. Seeing Liu Bian moaning there, he couldn't help but sneered.

"Third brother, please don't be rude." Liu Bei was shocked, and quickly scolded Zhang Feidao, then turned his head and bowed respectfully to Liu Bian: "Don't blame me, my third brother, I don't know a few characters and don't know etiquette. If there is any punishment, I am willing to bear it for my third brother."

Zhang Fei listened and wanted to say something, but Guan Yu quickly stopped him and stopped him from continuing. However, Liu Bian did not pursue Zhang Fei's rudeness, but nodded and said:

"Those who don't know are innocent. This Marquis can forgive Zhang Yingxiong for his rebellion. But in fact, Zhang Yingxiong is also right. Now the ten permanent attendants are controlling the government, cheating the Holy One, causing chaos in the world, yellow scarves are rising, and people are dying. The eunuch’s disaster. If one day I can make a difference, I will punish the eunuchs such as Shi Changshi first, revive the court, reuse the talents like the three heroes, and restore the world.”

When Liu Bian said this, an invisible aura suddenly erupted from his body. It was he who displayed his talent, ability, and poise, which immediately shocked the three of Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei. It was because of the powerful majesty erupting from his body that the three of them felt as if they were facing a heavenly being and needed to look up at this moment.

"Young Lord, could it be that the Empress He's son is the Prince Bian?" Guan Yu suddenly cried out, and Liu Bei and Zhang Fei also stared at him with wide eyes.

"Guan Yingxiong, two heroes, this Marquis is Prince Bian, but he can't stay in the palace for some reason, but he can return to the palace in two or three months. Regarding the deeds of the three heroes, this Marquis is very happy. Admiration, if the three of you don’t dislike it, please move to the Shifu. This Marquis will definitely report the merits of the three heroes to his father and reward the ministers who have made great contributions. Of course, if this Marquis is lucky If I can become the current prince in the future, I can let the three of you serve in my East Palace, so that the three of you can display what you have learned all your life, and seek a stable life for the world and the people."

"See First Prince."

Among Ling Emperor's children today, Liu Bian is indeed the biggest, so according to the ancestor's rules of the Han Dynasty, he should be made the crown prince, so what he said is not empty talk, but has a great possibility.

The reason why Liu Bei and the other three joined the army to suppress thieves was not to be able to make meritorious deeds and get a promotion, so that they could earn an official position, be able to settle down and make a difference at the same time.

Now he is actually able to be appreciated by Liu Bian, the great prince of the dynasty. If he can follow the great prince, then when he becomes a prince, and then becomes an emperor, he and others will be heroes with the dragon, so the three of them hurriedly saluted again, Even Zhang Fei didn't dare to be presumptuous and rude anymore.

"The three heroes agreed to stay?" Liu Bian was overjoyed.

"Returning to the eldest prince, we are very happy that the eldest prince can look up to the three of us, and we shouldn't have declined, but thinking that the three of us are just reckless people, I am afraid it will be difficult to shoulder the heavy responsibility, so please allow us to think about it , so as not to cause trouble for the First Prince if we don't know how to behave."

Liu Bei has quite a heroic temperament. At this time, he did not immediately agree to Liu Bian's conditions, but retreated to advance, because they saw that the eldest prince Liu Bian was only thirteen or fourteen years old, and they expected to have no ability. Can't do it?

"That's right, the three of us originally intended to make contributions to the imperial court, get a half-job and settle down, so that our family can live a good life. We will always remember the great love of the eldest prince, and it is indeed as the eldest brother said. Knowing the etiquette in official circles, he has offended ten permanent attendants, if he stays, he will make some enemies for the eldest prince, which is really not what we want."

Guan Yu also quickly added that his words were more tactful, and there was another reason that was circulated among the people, that is, Emperor Han Ling didn't like the eldest prince Liu Bian very much, but rather liked the second prince Liu Xie, and he had always wanted to make Liu Xie his successor. The prince is only concerned about Empress He's natal He family, because General He Jin controls the Habayashi Army near Gyeonggi, which is equivalent to controlling the Sili department around the capital, which makes Emperor Ling somewhat wary.

"I also know that when we first met, the three heroes must have some concerns. After all, I am still young and inexperienced, and there are even rumors that the father prefers the second brother, the prince's association. Let's not talk about this for now. It is noon now. Let the three heroes stay and eat together."
