Chapter 799 Liu Bei's visit
Needless to say, Cao Cao's plan was tolerate Xu Shu. Soon, Xu Shu received a letter from his old mother. Of course, even Guo Jia now didn't know whether the letter was written by Xu Shu's mother himself or Cao Cao's deception. But that was no longer important. What was important was that Xu Shu left Liu Bei and came to Cao's camp.
Not long after, sure enough, Wolonggang outside Nanyang, on that day, a few special guests came outside the Guo Mansion. Well, to be precise, it was in front of Zhuge Liang's house, the "sentinel" of the Guo Mansion.
"Can you inform me?" Liu Bei said to Zhuge Liang politely.
Although Liu Bei did not regard Zhuge Liang as a servant at all, he called him "young brother" respectfully and politely, although Liu Bei looked like a person, he was not a boring person at first glance. But for such a long time, no one has ever seen Zhuge Liang? Today, Zhuge Liang is no longer the Zhuge Liang used to be the same! If Zhuge Liang had such a seemingly unusual person treat him like this, Zhuge Liang would definitely be flattered. But now, if he doesn't say that he is fake, at least Zhuge Liang is not surprised.
Therefore, when I first met Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang did not have any special feeling at first. Although Zhuge Liang had gone to Liu Bei to seek a job before, in fact, Zhuge Liang had not even seen Liu Bei's people at that time, so it was impossible to recognize Liu Bei at this moment.
"Sorry, Brother Guo is not at home. Please come again next time if you have anything to do." Zhuge Liang replied with neither humility nor arrogant. It seems neither humility nor arrogant, but in fact, he doesn't even ask who the other party is. Whether there is any major matter, he will definitely look very arrogant. Of course, it is not Zhuge Liang's arrogance, but Guo Jia behind him. Since Guo Jia is going to close the door and thank the guests, he naturally doesn't ask anything, regardless of big or small matters. If he asks everything clearly, wouldn't it give people a psychological activity that Guo Jia will see people by looking at the situation? So Guo Jia now wants to refuse quite simply, indicating that he really doesn't see anyone!
Facing Zhuge Liang's answer, Zhang Fei was about to be angry. Fortunately, Liu Bei quickly stopped him with his eyes. Then, Liu Bei bowed to Zhuge Liang again and revealed his identity directly.
"Please, please tell me that Xinye Liu Bei is visiting."
"Liu Bei?!" Zhuge Liang was shocked and subconsciously felt that it was impossible, but he quickly thought it was not impossible. Guo Jia judged that Liu Bei would come to him because he thought clearly about the causes and consequences and interests, and added the allusion of visiting the cottage three times. As for Zhuge Liang, the reason why he could turn around so quickly was entirely because Guo Jia was his idol.
Out of blind admiration for Guo Jia, Zhuge Liang felt that it was not impossible to invite such a powerful person as Guo Jia to come out and Liu Bei took the risk to come in person, right? Not to mention Liu Bei, even if Cao Cao wanted Guo Jia to come out, wouldn't he have to come in person?! And it depends on whether Guo Jia would like to see him or not!
However, when he was surprised, Zhuge Liang really wanted to laugh three times. Haha. Liu Bei, Liu Bei, weren’t you that so ** at the beginning? I thought I couldn’t find something to do when I came to you. As a result, I came here to meet my elder brother Guo at the risk of being killed?!
It’s also a blessing that although Zhuge Liang has a villain mentality, he is not a real villain. Otherwise, Zhuge Liang would definitely take advantage of this rare opportunity to tease Liu Bei!
On the other hand, when Liu Bei told him about his identity, the people in front of him were shocked and confused. They all seemed a little proud, like Zhang Fei, who was about to get angry just now, thinking that the eldest brother was the eldest brother, and others were completely shocked when they heard the name. They looked as if they were looking down on others, but they almost bit their tongues now! If Zhang Fei knew what Zhuge Liang was thinking at this time, he would probably be unable to help but burn Zhuge Liang's thatched cottage directly.
"Oh, that, Brother Guo is really not at home now, and there is nothing I can do." After all, Zhuge Liang responded quickly. After all, he is from the Zhuge family, but there is no fool. If it were just a two-pointer, he was stunned by Liu Bei and said I would go over and ask for instructions, wouldn't it be that everything would be exposed?!
"I wonder where Lord Guo went? When will he return?" Liu Bei asked.
"Brother Guo has always liked to be casual. It is obviously impossible for a little person like me to know about this kind of thing." Zhuge Liang replied without hesitation.
"So, let's wait here for a while. Maybe Lord Guo will come back soon. You don't have to worry about us, just go and do your own business." Liu Bei said casually.
Of course, everyone knew it well at this time that Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang to do his own business, so he wanted to leave time for Zhuge Liang to ask Guo Jia for some words. Since he didn't want to say something, everyone wouldn't say it well.
Sure enough, Zhuge Liang greeted him briefly, asked the boy to serve Liu Bei and his party, and then went to "do his own business".
"Tsk, what? You're obviously at home and you're not here!" As soon as Zhuge Liang left, Zhang Fei began to be angry. It was thanks to Zhang Fei's thought that Guo Jia was not targeting them. If Zhang Fei knew the truth and knew that Guo Jia was targeting them, he would probably burn the house again.
"Third brother, be careful. Don't be recognized by others now when you are outside." Guan Yu couldn't help but remind that Liu Bei was fine. Even if he had deliberately dressed up, he would try to keep a low profile if he wanted to avoid being recognized.
"Brother, is it really okay for you to directly disclose your identity like this?" Guan Yu immediately asked Liu Bei.
"It's okay. Since we have all come here, we should naturally not hide any identity." Liu Bei said. He, Liu Bei, was planning to see Guo Jia, and Guo Jia didn't know him, Liu Bei, so there was no need to hide his identity at all. If you can't even do such a thing, how can you express your sincerity? Why do you have to take the risk?!
"But, wouldn't it be bad to tell a servant casually?" Guan Yu said with some concern. It turned out that Guan Yu was not worried about Guo Jia, but Zhuge Liang. That's right, Guo Jia wouldn't report them, but it doesn't mean that Zhuge Liang would not report them either. Don't these servants who guard the servants usually forget their righteousness when they see profit.
"Second brother, you're too worried. Seeing that the guy just now is so smart and can be arranged in this position by Guo Jia, there must be no problem." Liu Bei waved his hand and said indifferently.
As for how nervous Liu Bei was actually in his heart at this time, no one except himself would know.
In the mansion, Zhuge Liang came to Guo Jia.
"Brother Guo, Liu Bei! That Liu Bei is here!"
"Shh!" Guo Jia immediately put his hand beside his mouth and made a silence gesture, "I heard nothing. Didn't I say it early in the morning, no matter who came, I would see nothing?" Guo Jia said directly, with a calm look of surprise at all. And it was certain that Guo Jia had definitely heard it clearly and knew that the person coming outside was Liu Bei. Could it be that Guo Jia had expected this situation long ago?!
Awesome! So awesome! Lord Guo is indeed worthy of being a god! (Enough)
