Facing Liu Bei's questioning, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu no longer wanted to listen.
Just these few words going back and forth gave people a sense of how sorry they both were for him and how unworthy they were of being human beings.
But in fact, if you think about it carefully, it is clear that Liu Bei betrayed his trust first.
But what's more insidious about him is that he doesn't show his face openly, but secretly pokes and makes small moves behind his back.
Just because Zhang Fei and Guan Yu were straight-tempered and rather nervous, they didn't take Liu Bei's little actions seriously.
Now calm down and think about it carefully, Liu Bei no longer regarded them as brothers a long time ago.
Zhang Fei knew that Guan Yu was not good at talking, so he simply stopped talking nonsense with Liu Bei.
"We are indeed the most benevolent and righteous people. From now on, it's up to you to decide what to do!"
After that, he took Guan Yu and left.
Liu Bei stood there, really wishing that there was a large group of people around him right now, and he could rush forward and cut these two people down.
It's a pity that the ideal is very full and the reality is very skinny.
Not only does he have no one he can use, but the only silver coins he has in hand were given to him by Zhang Fei and Guan Yu just now.
"Oh! What should I do?"
Liu Bei stood there depressed, watching the two of them drifting away, and sighed helplessly.
Guan Yu was obviously in a bad mood and said nothing along the way.
Zhang Fei comforted him and said, "Second brother, stop thinking so much. We should always look forward."
Guan Yu is not a very troubled person, he just can't get over this hurdle in his heart.
But as time went by, he became much calmer than when he first started.
While the two were talking, they hurried back to find Xiang Kunlun.
At this time, above the court.
Some of the men had anxious looks on their faces.
Except for Zhang Liao, Dian Wei, Zhuge Liang, Guo Jia, etc., who are usually familiar with Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, everyone else is worried about the same thing.
What if, after Zhang Fei and Guan Yu saw Liu Bei, they remembered their past friendship and suddenly turned against them
After all, Liu Bei is eloquent, has a sharp tongue, and is particularly good at deceiving people.
Although they didn't want to believe this, they had to guard against it.
"Your Majesty, General Zhang and General Guan have not returned for a long time. Do you need to send someone to look for them?"
Xiang Kunlun waved his hand casually.
"Two grown men are no longer children, and they don't know the way. Why are they looking for them?"
Several of his subordinates looked at each other and didn't understand what the emperor meant.
Do you really believe in these two people, or do you not think about it at all
"Your Majesty, General Guan and General Zhang were in the same camp as Liu Bei, and they were brothers. It would be easy for them to meet each other for so long."
Although he had said it tactfully, everyone present knew what he meant.
Xiang Kunlun's expression remained unchanged and he only said eight words.
“Don’t trust those you employ, and ignore those you doubt.”
Others wanted to persuade them again, but when they saw Zhuge Liang winking at them from the side, they finally did not say anything.
I don't know how long it took, but someone came from outside to report: "Your Majesty, General Liu and General Guan have returned and are now outside asking for an audience."
Xiang Kunlun's face showed an expression of "I knew it would be like this" as he announced their entry.
Zhang Fei and Guan Yu both knelt down and said, "See your Majesty!"
"Both of you, please get up. Have you seen Liu Bei?"
His question was very casual, as if he was not talking about Uncle Liu Huang, but a passerby on the street.
Hearing that Xiang Kunlun was so calm, the two of them felt relieved.
Zhang Fei nodded: "Back to the emperor, we have met Liu Bei and gave him the silver."
Xiang Kunlun didn't ask any more questions. He knew with his toes that Liu Bei must want to persuade them to go back.
And the result of the matter is right in front of them, the two people definitely did not agree.
If they agreed, it would be impossible for them to come back, let alone agree that Liu Bei would come back as an undercover agent later.
The reason for this certainty may be nothing more than looking at the expressions of the two people, and Xiang Kunlun can be so sure.
"Okay, then you two go down and rest first."
After the two left, some of the subordinates were really puzzled.
"Your Majesty, why don't you ask what the two of them said to Liu Bei?"
Xiang Kunlun looked over and said, "Do you still want to ask this question?"
Dian Wei couldn't help it anymore: "Why are you stupider than me? That Liu Bei is a hypocrite. What else can he say except to persuade Yide Yunzhang to go back again?"
This was true, so no one said anything anymore.
Xiang Kunlun directly announced his resignation. After this incident, he believed in Guan Yu and Zhang Fei even more.
Although I don’t know what Liu Bei had planned, he did not appear again for a long time.
Zhang Fei and Guan Yu never received the letter of complaint he wrote.
At first, both of them were a little reluctant to accept Liu Bei's letter, but Zhang Liao and others kept coming to tease him.
I'm asking today, have you received the letter
I'll ask tomorrow, why hasn't Liu Bei written to you yet
The day after tomorrow I asked again, when will the next letter come
After asking more questions, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu's mood changed.
Later, a group of people directly started betting.
"I bet Liu Bei's letter will definitely come today."
"Then what if you don't come?"
"Then I'll take off my shirt and run around the training ground ten times."
"What if it comes?"
"Then I'll run!"
So, everyone can see that on the training ground, there will be a bunch of people running there shirtless every day.
At first, Xiang Kunlun didn't know about this bet. He was pleased to say that the people under him were really becoming more and more diligent.
Now I don’t need to supervise myself, I just consciously train myself and improve myself.
Zhuge Liang, who had known the truth for a long time, almost suffered internal injuries when he suppressed his laughter.
As a person who knows, but can't tell Xiang Kunlun, seeing him kept in the dark, this feeling is really itching in my heart.
It wasn't until a few days later that Xiang Kunlun came to the training ground to watch and overheard the following conversation.
"This Liu Bei has probably given up. I've been running for three days, betting that he would definitely write a letter. But after running away for three days, I won't be able to tell him tomorrow."
"Keep holding on, not necessarily. What if it comes tomorrow?"
Xiang Kunlun felt something was wrong, what about Liu Bei, writing letters, and running.
Why can't he understand
"what are you guys saying?"
The two men were bragging and talking nonsense. They suddenly heard the question and didn't realize the seriousness of the problem.
Turning around, Your Majesty, Your Majesty? !
"Join the Emperor!"
