Chapter 696 I am willing to protect you
There is no doubt that these conversations between Liu Qi and Tai Shici were intentional, but they were definitely not lies.
When Liu Bei brought Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun into Shu and asked Guan Yu to lead his troops to station in Rangcheng, Liu Qi was wondering what his original intention was.
But thinking about it now, Zhao Yun was still kept in the dark, and Liu Qi felt it was necessary to remind him.
Sure enough, after Zhao Yun heard the conversation between Liu Qi and Tai Shici, his face suddenly turned red and white, and he suddenly seemed to understand something.
After all, he was still a relatively well-mannered person, and he would not show timidity in front of Liu Qi. He seemed not to know.
Then they continued to eat mutton and chat about interesting things from all over the world.
But it was obvious that Zhao Yun was a little absent-minded at the moment. His mind was not in his mind, and he only responded to Liu Qi's previous sentence from time to time, which was quite perfunctory.
Zhao Yun's performance was noticed by Liu Qi. He didn't take it seriously and just pretended to be unaware and continued talking to the other party.
In the evening, everyone had a good time before returning to Chengdu.
On the way, Zhao Yun rode up to Tai Shi Ci and humbly asked for advice: "Tai Shi Ci, Zhao Yun has something to ask."
When Taishi Ci saw that Zhao Yun came to him to ask questions, he hurriedly said: "Zilong, you don't have to be polite. From now on, you and I can be friends. If you have something to do, it doesn't matter."
Zhao Yun didn't show any pretense, and immediately changed his name and called him "Ziyi".
"Ziyi, listen to what Junhou Shicai said, Jian Yong has arrived in Chengdu?"
"yes!"
"You also took the personal bodyguards of Duke Xuande?"
"yes."
Zhao Yun's face became increasingly ugly: "Where are they?"
"Just rest in the post house. Do you want me to take you to see him someday?"
Zhao Yun was looking for what Jian Yong wanted to say, so naturally he couldn't let Tai Shi Ci know about it. He hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No need to bother Ziyi. I have some private matters and I can just ask Xianhe myself."
…
The next day, Zhao Yun immediately went to the posthouse to see Jian Yong. After meeting Jian Yong, Zhao Yun did not hide anything and asked him directly: "Xianhe, where are the troops and horses under Zhao's command?"
Jian Yong never thought that Zhao Yun would come here so early in the morning to ask him this, and he couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
Liu Bei brought Zhao Yun into Shu, but asked Guan Yu to quietly annex Zhao Yun's troops in Jingzhou. Although this is understandable, in reality, it is not very authentic.
Jian Yong was silent for a while and said: "Zilong has not returned from Shu for a long time, but Yun Chang got Liu Zhenxi's order to go to Lingling to take up his post, so he took all Zilong's men to Lingling.
"
Zhao Yun's face turned livid.
The appearance of his fists was exposed, and the joints where he clenched his fists made a faint "crack, bang, bang" sound, which made Jian Yong's forehead break into cold sweat.
This is Zhao Yun. If it were Zhang Fei, he would never give up so easily.
When I was young, I heard Zhao Yun say coldly: "I am in the middle of Shu, so my troops have to be taken away by Yun Chang. Xuande is also in the middle of Shu, but for the sake of his soldiers and generals, Xianhe brought them here?"
"Well, after all, they are our own soldiers and horses, and we can have the final say when we bring them to Shuzhong."
"Oh?" Zhao Yun smiled when he heard this: "You have the final say in bringing my men to Shu? I see that you take my men to Lingling, but you don't have the final say."
Jian Yong's face suddenly felt embarrassed.
Zhao Yun took a deep breath. Although he was very angry, Jian Yong was not the mastermind after all. He was just a subordinate of Liu Bei, so how could he be the master of Liu Bei and himself?
The person behind the scenes must be Liu Bei.
Zhao Yun originally had a good impression of Liu Bei, but now that something like this happened, his favorable impression of Liu Bei suddenly plummeted.
"Farewell." Zhao Yun cupped his hands at Jian Yong and turned to leave.
Jian Yong was anxious when he saw this and shouted: "Zilong!"
Zhao Yun stopped and asked, "Does Xian He have any other advice?"
"Zilong, actually you don't have to be so angry...this matter...is somewhat misunderstood."
"Misunderstanding?" Zhao Yun smiled disdainfully when he heard this and said, "Zhao has lived for twenty-six years. I can tell clearly what is a misunderstanding and what is not. Don't worry about it, sir."
After that, he stopped talking to Jian Yong and left the post house without looking back.
Looking at Zhao Yun's disappearing back, Jian Yong sighed slightly melancholy.
This matter was indeed done in a hurry... but they had not thought in advance that Liu Qi would suddenly appoint Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to such important positions as captains of a county.
As a result, Zhao Yun was offended as a result.
…
Zhao Yun left the post house, feeling depressed and not knowing where to go.
A good-looking Chinese military inspector in Youzhou has now become a polished commander. Who would feel better if he replaced him?
Just walking aimlessly like this, Zhao Yun unknowingly came to the door of the Animal Husbandry Department in Chengdu.
After hesitating for a moment, Zhao Yun immediately stepped forward to report that he had come to see General Zhenxi.
The guards went in to report, and soon came out to personally lead Zhao Yun in.
Liu Qi was still busy handling official duties. The official documents piled in front of him were like a mountain, but most of them had been read by Fa Zheng, Xu Shu, Yi Ji, Liu He, Cui Jun, Liu Ye, Man Chong and others, and
When Liu Qi put forward his opinions, he only needed to watch them carefully and then draw a circle on them to agree or disagree.
Even so, the workload is still staggering.
"Is Zilong here?" Liu Qi smiled slightly and said, "I have already said hello to Dianjun, and I will ask him to take you to select people from Jingwu's soldiers in a moment. However, the number of Jingwu's soldiers is small, so you are here
Select a group of them, and then I will ask Ziyi to lead you to the Central Army, and you will select a group of people to go with you to Jingzhou, and let you take them to Chaisang."
Zhao Yun looked at Liu Qi with some confusion and said: "Jun Hou, Zhao Yun doesn't understand. Zhao Yun and Jun Hou have never known each other before, and they are the first to surrender. Why does Jun Hou trust someone so much?"
Liu Qi shook his head and said: "Zilong's words are wrong. You are not a traitor in battle, but a subordinate of Da Sima. Da Sima and I are allies. The Alliance of Protecting the Emperor has its duty to protect the emperor. Da Sima's
People are my people, Liu Boyu, we have been on the same front from the beginning, so why should we say whether we should surrender or not?"
After that, Liu Qi picked up a piece of silk from the table, smiled at Zhao Yun and said: "Da Sima is thousands of miles away, and he sent a letter on Starry Night Pegasus. He plans to enter the capital. This has relieved my worries!
"
After all, Liu Yu was also the benefactor who supported Zhao Yun in the past. Now that he heard that he was going to Luoyang, Zhao Yun was naturally surprised.
He stepped forward and took the piece of silk handed to him by Liu Qi.
This is indeed a letter written by Liu Yu to Liu Qi.
The boss told Liu Qi that he had replied to the court and would go to Luoyang to take up a post. He also thanked Liu Qi for reminding him and giving him guidance. He would definitely find an opportunity to repay this kindness when he arrived in Luoyang in the future.
Although Zhao Yun didn't know what Liu Qi and Liu Yu secretly communicated, he could tell from Liu Yu's words that Liu Qi was indeed helping him.
These days, the princes and warlords are doing everything they can to expand their own power. Even Liu Bei, who is not even a warlord, is still secretly plotting his own troops, which really makes Zhao Yun feel bad.
But through Liu Yu's letter, Zhao Yun was able to tell that Liu Qi was different from these people. He did not take advantage of Da Sima, and was still helping him sincerely... It seems that, if nothing else, Da Sima's current situation is the same.
Liu Qi single-handedly facilitated this.
Coupled with his importance and selflessness to himself, as well as his loyalty to the Han Dynasty and the imperial court, this impartial heart is truly unparalleled by ordinary people.
At least among all the people Zhao Yun has seen so far, no one can compare with him.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yun bowed to Liu Qi and thanked him: "Your Majesty helped Da Sima. As Yun is a former subordinate of Da Sima, I would like to thank you for your kindness on behalf of Da Sima. Please accept Zhao Yun's respect."
After saying that, I saw him kneeling down on one knee.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Liu Qi stood up in a hurry, came to Zhao Yun and helped him up.
But seeing that Zhao Yun seemed to have made up his mind, he held his hands to Liu Qi and said: "Zhao Yun is already in his thirties, but it is only today that he finally understands who is a hero. Zhao Yun has a heartless request. I want to ask you."
Hou Yingyun."
"You tell me?"
"Although Zhao Yun is good at bowing, horse riding, and shooting, he is not very good at deploying troops. If he goes to Jingzhou, he may cause trouble for the prince. If the prince does not give up, Zhao Yun is willing to stay with the prince and be a person beside him.
