Chapter 240 Liu Bei's gift to Xiaoxiang
This was the first time that the new Shu County Magistrate Liu Bei met Sun Ce. He thought that he would be living under someone else's roof in the future, and he felt mixed emotions.
But he could only salute solemnly: "Xiaoguan Liu Bei, please pay homage to the Governor of Jiangnan, General Zhennan! Xiaguan has long heard of the reputation of the general for a young man, and the Xiaguan has been revered for a long time...
When I was in Xuzhou, I would like to thank General Dayi for sending doctors to rescue millions of troops in Xuzhou in the midst of water and fire. The general’s high and subordinate officials are the most truly admired!”
The polite words of politeness to Liu Bei made Guan Yu feel a little painful behind him. With a frown, he held back his aggrievances.
Although he is young, his official position is far higher than that of his elder brother. In addition, his medical camp is not only for Xuzhou, but also for himself. If it weren't for the miracle doctor named Li Dangzhi's rescue, he would have become a dead person at this moment.
The anger in his heart just turned into a slight airflow and sprayed out of his nose. Guan Yu's slight noise immediately alarmed Sun Ce. He looked up at the bandaged man, very conspicuous.
In a slight surprise, he pulled Xiaoxiang to his side and introduced to Liu Bei, "Uncle Liu, this is my younger sister named Sun Shangxiang. She has also admired your name for a long time, so now Japan will take her to see you?
Hehe, you guys chat for a while! I will talk to General Guan first. Hey, did Mr. Zhang come with him?"
Liu Bei quickly explained Zhang Fei's whereabouts, and then Sun Ce said relievedly: "It should be, it should be. In the future, this will be the home of Uncle Liu and you three brothers. Hehe, it is just that you should bring all your family members!"
Several people were confused by Sun Ce's bad taste. Liu Bei and Guan Yu didn't understand why General Sun brought his younger sister to greet him. This is not only unreasonable, but also unreasonable.
No one in this world would bring his younger sister to welcome his subordinates. If Sun Ce had a different mindset, although this little girl named Sun Shangxiang was beautiful, she knew at a glance that she would definitely be a top beauty when she grew up.
But at the moment she hadn't even grown up. The down-and-out Liu Bei could not guess Sun Ce's thoughts at all. He could only follow Sun Ce's tone and politely praised Xiaoxiang's cute elf.
After Sun Ce and Liu Bei were polite, they had already jumped to Guan Yu who had really admired for a long time. They looked up and down carefully and compared it with the glorious image of Guan Emperor in their minds.
While watching, he also made a "tsk tsk" exclamation from time to time. There was no demeanor that a general in Zhennan should have.
Sun Shangxiang, who was also confused there, glanced at the other side with a strange look at the older brother who suddenly appeared to be a bit vulgar.
I thought to myself with depression: "When did I have long been the name of this evil old man? I would be happy to be such a bad guy who doesn't care about his family!"
But the smart Xiaoxiang would not go against the wishes of her most beloved brother in person, and she still approached and bowed to Liu Bei very well.
A crisp and beautiful girl voice sounded: "Xiaoxiang greets Uncle Liu Bei! What the elder brother said is that Xiaoxiang has long admired Uncle's name. Today, I came with my brother to see the world. Please take care of Uncle Liu in the future!"
Xiaoxiang put herself in the position of a junior. Liu Bei, who had met for the first time, hurried and solemnly returned the gift and reached out to grop. Sun Ce, a Shangguan, did not follow the rules, so Liu Bei could not follow the rules and ignorant of the principles.
But after touching for a long time, Liu Bei was unable to find anything valuable on his body as a gift for the little girl.
Seeing the embarrassing actions of the evil uncle opposite, a hint of contempt flashed in Xiaoxiang's playful big eyes.
"Every time Brother Bofu comes back from home, he can always bring out endless fun things to make himself happy. How could he be like this poor old man? After searching for a long time, he couldn't even find any gifts. He was so stingy!"
But he didn't know that Liu Bei was complaining. Along the way, Liu Bei had imagined everything that might happen when the two sides met. But no one would have thought that General Sun would come to pick someone up with a child.
How could Liu Bei, who had not prepared any preparations for this, prepare something suitable for the little girl in advance? At this moment, Liu Bei had nothing to show off. Seeing that he was about to make a fool of himself, Liu Bei suddenly felt an object in all directions.
After hesitating for a moment, he saw the trace of contempt in Xiaoxiang's eyes. At this moment, Liu Bei didn't know which nerve it had stirred.
He was thinking: "You must never let a little girl look down on me! This would be good, and it would show my sincerity!"
He bit his steel teeth and took out the official seal he touched in his hand: "Miss Xiaoxiang, uncle is in a hurry this time and has never brought any gifts. I will temporarily mortgage the seal of the general of Zhendong, and wait for the gift that the girl is satisfied with in the future!"
"Hiss!" "Ah!"
The people in front of the door were stunned again, and countless people took a breath in surprise: "What's the situation? General Zhendong's official seal? This gift was given to an eight-year-old girl. Liu Xuande was really a big deal."
Jian Yong, who was standing far away, took two steps forward and his eyes flashed for a moment. He seemed to understand Liu Bei's intention.
He stopped his attempt to go forward and persuade him with some difficulty. He understood that Liu Bei, the lord and his friend, would never do such a meaningless absurd thing as coaxing children with a big seal.
Only Xiaoxiang, who was not frightened, was very curious about the general seal who had never played before. The seals of the eldest brother and the officials were never shown to others casually. After all, these seals of all sizes represent corresponding rights and responsibilities.
Xiaoxiang, who didn't know the pros and cons, took two steps forward, bloomed with a flowery little face, and said with a smile: "Okay! Thank you Uncle Liu. That lady is waiting for Uncle Liu and exchanged the gift that will satisfy me! Hehe!"
As he said that, he picked up the heavy purple gold seal in Liu Bei's hand. Before he could take two steps, he immediately started screaming and placed the official seal heavily on the ground.
The gold official seal was extremely heavy, so it was not something that a girl who was only eight years old was a few days away from being eight years old.
But when Xiaoxiang's crisp voice rang out again: "Xiaoji, why don't you come out to help quickly! Do you want to exhaust your aunt?"
In the wide gate of the prefect's mansion, a thin young figure stepped out. It was under Xiaoxiang's painstaking guidance that Lu Ji, who had made great progress in his skills, could not stand Xiaoxiang's entanglement and obediently became the young lady's personal follower.
Before, Sun Shangxiang was arranged by him to wait for the order in the mansion. Now, Lu Ji, who is ten years old, has no problem carrying a ten-pound thing under his hard practice in recent years.
In front of everyone, the two children easily brought the seal, which represents one of the highest military powers of the Han generals, into the Governor's Mansion.
It was not until the two young people's backs disappeared for a long time that Sun Ce came to his senses. In other words, before he saw the real person, Xiaoxiang was one of the four generals of the Great Han towns who were on par with him.
In this era when only recognizing official seals but not people, an eight-year-old girl had the power to command the 100,000 Han army. It was not that Sun Ce could not have imagined, but that the world was so crazy.
When everyone finally finished the day and entered the Governor's Mansion and waited for the subsequent reception banquet, Liu Bei and his brothers took Jian Yong to go to the toilet and walked into the thatched cottage in the Governor's Mansion into the courtyard.
Seeing that there were no one else around, Liu Bei was full of doubts and asked in a low voice: "Chang Yun, why do you think of Sun Bofu, he actually called his brother and uncle, instead of calling him the title of the usual official title. What are his plans?
I think he was the first time he met Wei brother today, so why did he look at Wei brother with such a strange look? He is such a weird boy, and he would bring his ghostly sister to see Wei brother. What is his intention?"
Guan Yu, who had not recovered from his injuries, was also a little dizzy due to the series of things just now.
"Yes, brother! Sun Bofu is really a strange person. For some reason, his attitude towards his younger brother is also so strange. He seems to admire him and appreciate him, and he seems to have a little admiration. He really can't stand it!
However, we have only heard of each other's names, but we have never met. But he seems to be very familiar with our brothers. Ah, he won't be..."
Thinking of the fact that I was just now being admired by this young man who might love male style, I held my right hand and talked for a long time. Guan Yu's body trembled violently, and even pulled the wound on his left arm, causing a trace of severe pain."
Liu Bei quickly interrupted: "Chen Yun should not make random guesses. For brother, Sun Bofu is an extraordinary hero and will never have such an intention. Or because the heroes cherish each other, it is unknown whether they are curious about you and my brothers!"
Guan Yu suddenly woke up and said respectfully: "Yes! Brother, but I'm thinking too much. How could he be so unbearable if he is a young hero? But his eyes just now were really inappropriate.
As for the name, maybe he called you brother, you uncle, and he regarded us as a family, so he was so out of control!"
There was no better explanation for the second brother's words. Liu Bei could only nod and said, "Yes! Maybe, as for whether he is a relative, he needs to watch it again. But for now, he is still very polite to us!
Alas, now I just want to refine another elite soldier as soon as possible, so that I can return to Xuzhou!”
Guan Yu certainly understood the plan in his elder brother's mind: "Don't worry, brother, when Yide comes back, we will ask General Xiaosun for someone to train our own troops! With Yide as the master, and with my younger brother's assistance, it is not difficult to train an elite soldier within a year!"
After hesitating for a moment, Guan Yu asked, "It's just that why did the brother hand over the seal of General Zhendong to a little girl in such a joke. If the child is ignorant and breaks the seal, wouldn't he even have to do the general?"
Chapter completed!
