Chapter 68 Zhang Liao: My Lord, I Want to Discuss Swords with You
"Lai Xianhe, open your mouth."

Liu Bei took out a piece of maltose from his arms with a smile and shook it in front of Jian Yong.

All of Jian Yong's words were stuck in his throat. He looked at Liu Bei deeply. Since he fainted in the tent that day, Liu Bei would occasionally hold maltose in front of him and stuff it into his mouth whenever he got the chance. It would be better to be fed by Liu Bei than to force it, right? So he could only open his mouth reluctantly.

"call out"

Liu Bei put the maltose into his mouth, with perfect accuracy and strength.

Jian Yong chewed it and found it strange. It was not the first time, so why was the candy still so sweet?
Is it really maltose?
Jian Yong felt something was strange. He looked up and saw Liu Bei's satisfied expression. He took a deep breath and said seriously, "My Lord, you have always appeared in front of me in recent days. I know you are worried about me. I am very touched, but you are the governor of a county. You can't confuse the priorities!"

Hearing Jian Yong's words, Liu Bei lowered his head in shame and said, "Xianhe is right. I will change it right away. However, you have to promise me that you will have a good rest. I will ask Hua Changshi to take good care of you."

After speaking, Liu Bei looked at Hua Tuo who was standing beside him.

Hua Tuo stood up and clasped his fists, "Yes."

After saying this, Hua Tuo smiled at Jian Yong and said, "Xianhe, we have been getting along quite well these days. In the future, we need to work together and make concerted efforts."

".Okay, I understand, Hua Changshi"

Jian Yong replied weakly that he was really too tired that day. His surname was Hua. Who else could be the one with the surname Hua in the army except the genius doctor Hua Tuo that Zhang Fei had been talking about?
Liu Bei had mentioned to him more than once before that Hua Tuo had superb medical skills, but his ability was actually not enough for the position of Chief Clerk. Doing this was like paying a huge price for a good doctor, which showed his respect for the doctor. Moreover, if he really gave up his medical skills, it would definitely be much more convenient to have the position of Chief Clerk.

After spending so many days together, Jian Yong found that it was indeed the same as what Liu Bei said. Although Hua Tuo could recite classics casually, his ability to govern was
Let’s put it this way, whether there is Hua Changshi or not, the impact on government affairs is not significant.

To put it more bluntly, Hua Changshi's governance is not as good as the soldiers promoted by Liu Bei from the army.
Jian Yong always felt that Liu Bei had found someone to look after him. Once he looked tired, Hua Tuo would snatch the bamboo slips and urge him, "Xianhe, it's time to rest."

Jian Yong would always struggle and say, "No, I can't rest any longer. My body and spirit are full—"

"Hmm?" Hua Tuo pointed at his face, as if to say, 'I'm giving you a chance to organize your words.'

Then Hua Tuo started to talk non-stop: "If jade is not carved, it cannot be made into a good tool; if people do not learn, they will not know. If jade is not carved, it cannot be made into a good tool; if people do not learn, they will not understand the truth. The Lord has said more than once that they should be trained and not do everything by themselves. Also, do you think you are energetic and practical?"

Hua Tuo took Jian Yong aside and started talking about the cause of the disease.

Whenever Jian Yong thought of this, his face turned pale and his hands trembled. Of course, the most powerful thing was Hua Tuo's final move, 'Oh, it seems I have to take action. I can easily handle the government affairs.'

Hearing this, Jian Yong was so scared that his soul almost ran out. He really wanted to say, "Hua Changshi, you really don't know how much you are capable of. If you come to government affairs, tomorrow will be a mess!"

There was no way Jian Yong could withstand such a powerful weapon. Now if he were to say what he feared the most, it would be Hua Tuo saying that he would take charge of government affairs. When he heard something like that, he would tremble all over.

Looking at Jian Yong's expression, Hua Tuo nodded with satisfaction. He was aware of his own level and said that purely for the purpose of treating Jian Yong.

When Liu Bei saw the reactions of Jian Yong and Hua Tuo, he sighed in his heart: It is true that there is always someone stronger than you. Xianhe, oh Xianhe, I never thought that I would be defeated by Mr. Hua.

Zhang Fei seized the opportunity and intervened. He walked in front of Jian Yong and said, "Fourth brother Jian."

Jian Yong glared at Zhang Fei unhappily, "What's the matter? Zhang Sanlang?"

"Since big brother can't do it, then I'll do it. Come on, open your mouth."

Zhang Fei tried seriously to hold back his laughter.

"Get out of here, you brat." Jian Yong scolded with a smile.

Liu Bei quickly said, "Be quiet, my second brother is coming soon." Hearing Liu Bei's words, Zhang Fei waved his hand and said, "Fourth brother Jian, my second brother is coming back soon, I will let you go for now!"

"." Jian Yong refused to give in, "For Yun Chang's sake, I won't argue with you!"

Liu Bei breathed a sigh of relief. He looked into the distance and saw four groups of light cavalry appearing at the end of his field of vision.

Before he could see the figure clearly, he heard Guan Yu's powerful voice from afar, "Big brother! Third brother! Xianhe!!!"

Liu Bei, Zhang Fei and Jian Yong looked at each other with joy, shouting "Second brother", "Second brother", "Yunchang", and ran towards the four light cavalry.

However, Jian Yong still looked back at Hua Tuo with lingering fear, and saw that Hua Tuo did not make any move, but just stood with the soldiers accompanying him, smiling, stroking his beard, and nodding slightly. Only then did Jian Yong feel relieved.

When Guan Yu saw the three people clearly, he jumped off his horse and ran towards them.

Xu Huang and Zhang Liao, who were following behind Guan Yu, looked at the brothers gathering together and looked at each other in surprise.

Xu Huang sighed: "What Commander Guan said is true. The feelings between the three brothers are really sincere."

"But..." Xu Huang couldn't help but wonder, "Didn't Commander Guan say there were three brothers? How come there are four?"

"Perhaps Commander Guan is not good at mathematics? Gongming, please don't say too much, just let us watch."

Zhang Liao looked at his brothers curiously, his attention focused on Liu Bei. Along the way, he learned a lot about Liu Bei's deeds from Guan Yu.

For example, Zhang Fei, who had always followed Liu Bei, was as brave as Guan Yu.

Zhang Liao had previously been engaged in resolving neighborhood disputes and was a native of Bingzhou. After he was willing to join Liu Bei's army, he no longer had any worries.

The warlike character that is ingrained in my bones is no longer hidden.

Of course, he is not a martial arts fanatic. In previous competitions, he always responded passively. Even if he could defeat his opponent, he would deliberately fight him to a draw or lose on purpose.

What is different from the past is that now when he fights, he will test whether the other party is willing. If not, he will give up decisively. If so, he will invite the other party to compete.

These days, the only people around Zhang Liao who can compete with him are Guan Yu and Xu Huang.

Xu Huang had no intention of doing so.

The only one left was his immediate superior, Guan Yu.

Fortunately, Guan Yu was also happy to compete with Zhang Liao.

However, what surprised Zhang Liao was why his Guan Duwei's eyes changed and became extremely serious when he was competing with him.

Zhang Liao started the fight with Guan Yu in confusion.

then
He was knocked to the ground.

Although he lost badly, Zhang Liao gained a lot. Since his younger brother is so powerful, what about the older brother?
Zhang Liao gripped the hilt of the sword, looked at Liu Bei and thought, My Lord, I am overstepping my authority. If possible, I would like to engage in a duel with you on swordplay.
