Chapter 310

~6 min read 1,173 words

Both sides built several tents outside the city, specifically for drinking.

Liu Bei had Zhang Liao and Fa Zheng lead the soldiers.

He himself led Zhang Fei and Guo Jia into the tent to drink.

After many rounds of drinks,

Everyone had loosened up a bit.

Lu Bu slapped the table, his face red and his neck thick.

"Xuande, that day I was knocked off my horse by your iron hammer; it was because I wasn't careful!"

Zhang Fei laughed loudly.

"Lu Bu, stop puffing yourself up. What about later in Hongnong? You were no match for my eldest brother at all!"

Lu Bu was furious.

"Pig-slaughterer, don't be arrogant; let's spar again!"

The two stood up, rushed together, and began to test their strength against each other!

Chen Gong...

Liu Bei shook his head; the drinking manners of these two were not just bad, they were terrible!

He walked over, grabbed both their hands, and pulled them apart.

"Alright, we can consider ourselves friends after the fight; why bother?"

Lu Bu struggled with all his might but could not break free from Liu Bei's grip, feeling shocked in his heart.

"That eared thief's strength has increased again!"

Lu Bu cursed him as a freak in his heart!

The three sat down again.

Liu Bei drank a bowl of wine.

"Fengxian, Gongtai, I came all the way from Xuzhou and found that the situation in Yanzhou is not good; the people have no grain and their lives are miserable."

Chen Gong sighed.

"There is a locust plague in Yanzhou this year, and it is also war-torn; the people are indeed having a hard time."

Liu Bei nodded.

"I still have some surplus grain in Bingzhou and intend to move these refugees to Bingzhou. I wonder what you think?"

Lu Bu said angrily,

"Liu Bei, you snatched away a million people from Qingzhou last time, and now you are coming to plot against the population of my Yanzhou!"

Liu Bei shook his head.

"Lu Bu, I ask you, do you have the grain to support these people? What will they eat from winter until next summer?"

Lu Bu was speechless for a moment; he didn't even have enough military grain, let alone surplus grain to support the people.

Liu Bei continued,

"Looking at the situation, you may not be able to defeat Cao Cao before next spring, and the spring plowing in several commanderies has also been ruined. What will everyone eat next year?"

Lu Bu frowned; he hadn't even considered this problem.

Chen Gong and several Yanzhou gentry looked at each other; they had no ability to support these refugees at all.

Chen Gong bowed with cupped hands.

"Lord Xuande is of high righteousness; if these people are to survive these two years, I fear it will have to depend on Lord Xuande."

Liu Bei stated that for the people of the Great Han, he was duty-bound!

At this time, whoever had grain had people.

Although Chen Gong knew the true meaning of Liu Bei's move, he had no other choice.

Liu Bei was also very generous, sending Lu Bu another 40,000 shi of grain, for a total of 100,000 shi; it could be considered borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha.

The grain from Xuzhou would let Lu Bu hold out a bit longer, making the people of Xuzhou a bit safer, and more people of Yanzhou would come to Bingzhou.

Lu Bu got the grain and felt much better, pulling Liu Bei to drink again.

Even if his strength couldn't compare to Liu Bei's, his drinking capacity had to!

Unfortunately,

When Lu Bu passed out drunk by the table, Liu Bei was still only flushed in the face.

He walked out of the tent, intending to relieve himself!

The broadcast room's barrage suddenly increased.

"Lu Bu, that blockhead, is smart; he didn't host the banquet at his mansion, so Liu Bei can't even steal a chicken!"

"Eared thief, let's see how you 'accidentally encounter' a young lady this time!"

"Damn, brothers, three o'clock direction!"

"Damn, damn, there's actually a long-legged young lady, heroic and spirited, so beautiful!"

Transit Group: 371729119

Liu Bei naturally noticed it too.

The young lady was 1.8 meters tall, with a perfect supermodel figure.

Her skin was fair, her eyes were large, her eyebrows were thicker than those of an average woman, making her look very spirited and heroic, yet her figure was top-notch!

"Lord Xuande, I am Lu Lingqi."

The young lady did not bow gracefully but instead bowed with cupped hands.

Liu Bei laughed.

"You are Fengxian's daughter? Truly, a tiger father has no dog daughter!"

Lu Lingqi stared at Liu Bei; he was handsome, with sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, his gaze as deep as the stars, and his temperament made people feel close to him involuntarily.

"This is Lord Xuande; just being looked at by him makes my heart feel warm."

Lu Lingqi soon blushed.

"Lord Xuande, I have studied martial arts for a few years and would like to ask for your guidance."

Liu Bei smiled faintly.

"The night is long, and it is fate that we could meet; let us spar a little."

Lu Lingqi cursed secretly; she had been guarding here for a long time, feeding several mosquitoes, just to see her idol, Liu Bei...

"Lord Xuande, be careful!"

Whoosh!

Lu Lingqi's long legs kicked out instantly.

Liu Bei dodged slightly to the side, barely avoiding it!

Liu Bei praised her secretly; what great legs! No, what great technique!

After only a few moves, Lu Lingqi was knocked down.

"I won't fight anymore! Alas! I'm really terrible!"

Lu Lingqi was very dejected.

Liu Bei laughed.

"Young Lady Lu, where do you think I rank among the generals of the Great Han?"

Lu Lingqi's eyes lit up.

"Lord Xuande can easily defeat my father, so naturally, you are the number one in the Great Han!"

Liu Bei nodded secretly; so Lu Bu's little cotton-padded jacket was leaking air.

"Since I am the number one in the Great Han, is it normal for you to lose to me?"

Lu Lingqi's eyes lit up; that's right, losing to the number one in the Great Han was nothing.

"Lord Xuande, you are really good; you are a bit different from what I imagined."

"How am I different?"

"Approachable, I suppose; not as cold and aloof as a great hero, very warm."

"I think you are quite cold and aloof, Young Lady Lu."

Lu Lingqi sighed deeply, feeling somewhat inferior.

"It's just that I am too tall, which is very different from ordinary women."

Liu Bei did not expect the young lady to have such thoughts; Lu Bu was two meters tall, so it was normal for his daughter to be 1.8 meters, but compared to other women, it was indeed a bit different.

"I don't think so; Young Lady Lu, you have long legs, are very beautiful, have a graceful and exquisite figure, and are quite heroic; you are definitely a beauty of a generation!"
