Chapter 65

Anyi City.

Zhang Mansion.

Zhang Ji raised his glass.

"Thank you all for coming to my wedding banquet; drink, drink."

Wei Ji, Guanqiu Xing, Pei Mao, and others raised their glasses one after another.

"Please, General of the Household!"

Most of the centurions, commandants, and captains under Zhang Ji came to drink.

The few remaining ones were also secretly drinking in the military camp; Hedong had been calm recently, and they hadn't realized any danger at all.

The sound of music outside came from far to near.

Zhang Ji laughed heartily.

"Gentlemen, follow me out to receive the bride."

He was extremely happy; he was almost fifty, and he could still marry an eighteen-year-old young lady, and this young lady was the most beautiful in Wuwei!

"The matchmaker talked it up so much; I'll have a good look tonight!"

Everyone arrived at the main gate.

A wedding procession had already stopped at the gate.

Zhang Ji smiled.

"Why haven't you let the bride in yet!"

Liu Bei walked out of the wedding procession.

"Zhang Ji, I'm sorry, I'm afraid Lady Zou won't be able to enter this door."

Zhang Ji frowned, looking at Liu Bei and feeling he looked a bit familiar.

"Who are you? Where is Lady Zou?!"

"Haha, you don't even recognize my Big Brother Liu Liu Xuande—truly a piece of trash!"

Zhang Fei rushed out and waved his hand.

"Kill! Kill all these Xiliang soldiers who bully the people!"

Zhang Ji was shocked.

"Liu Bei? You actually dare to come to Anyi City!"

Liu Bei took a few quick steps, drew the Seven-Star Precious Sword, and slashed down fiercely!

Zhang Ji's face changed drastically; he wasn't carrying a sword for his wedding, so he could only retreat in a hurry, subconsciously reaching out to block!

"Swish!"

Zhang Ji's right hand was cut off directly by Liu Bei!

Blood splashed onto Wei Ji's face nearby!

Wei Ji shouted.

"Quick, everyone, order your family troops to surround and attack the thief Liu!"

Responding to him were screams from behind.

He turned his head to look.

The family troops of the various powerful clans were directly attacking Wei Ji's and Zhang Ji's subordinates!

"You, you have all rebelled!"

Liu Bei kicked him to the ground.

"Dong Zhuo is causing chaos in the government; today, all righteous men in the world want to kill him, yet you are still helping the tyrant!"

Zhang Ji was still trying to run away while clutching his severed arm, but Zhang Fei thrust his Serpent Spear, piercing him through!

Other Xiliang officers were slaughtered one after another; these people had bullied the people of Hedong quite a bit, and now the family troops of those powerful clans were finally taking revenge!

"Zhang Yide, send Zhang Ji's head to the Xiliang military camp to help Yunchang deter those bandit soldiers."

"Understood!"

Zhang Fei didn't cut off Zhang Ji's head, but directly used his Serpent Spear to fork Zhang Ji's corpse and walked through half the city to deter the Xiliang soldiers.

Over there, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun had also succeeded.

Guan Yu killed the Xiliang captain who was left behind, killed hundreds of die-hard elements who resisted, and captured the entire military camp!

Zhao Yun, Xu Huang, Hao Zhao, and others also quickly controlled the city gates of Anyi.

The people of Anyi City were surprised to find that it was supposed to be Zhang Ji's big day.

Unexpectedly, the nest of the Xiliang bandit soldiers had been completely uprooted!

"Did you hear? The one who came this time is Liu Bei!"

"Liu Bei? That Liu Liu Xuande who assassinated Dong and is famous throughout the world?"

"He is a great loyal minister? A great hero!"

"More than that, Liu Bei defeated the Baibo Army and killed the Xiongnu Chanyu of the Xiongnu and Western Xianbei—he's very powerful."

"Inside scoop: Lady Zou and Liu Bei actually already have feelings for each other, and this Zhang Ji is shameless and wanted to rob Lady Zou by force!"

"I just said, Lady Zou is only eighteen—why would she marry Zhang Ji, who is nearly fifty! Does she fancy his age, or does she fancy that he doesn't wash?"

"A hero saving a beauty—Liu Bei is truly a model for our generation!"

"With Inspector Liu, we will no longer be bullied by Dong Zhuo's chaotic army in Hedong!"

Zhang Fei told everyone the people's discussion.

Guanqiu Xing, Pei Mao, and others looked at Lady Zou, who was crying like rain and looked pitiful, and then looked at Liu Bei.

They cupped their hands and said.

"Inspector Liu, this Lady Zou is lonely and helpless, and her future days will be difficult; please take her in."

Zhang Fei also said.

"Big Brother, you can't be fickle; Lady Zou helped us so much."

Lady Zou looked at Liu Bei with red eyes, her expression expectant.

Liu Bei sighed deeply.

"Lady Zou is reasonable and values affection; now that she cannot return to Xiliang, I should indeed be responsible."

He looked at Lady Zou.

"Lady Zou, are you willing to marry me?"

Lady Zou was secretly happy; she didn't have to marry that old man Zhang Ji, and she was marrying a great hero famous throughout the world—who wouldn't be willing? Moreover, this hero was handsome and had a strong body!

Although she would be a concubine, Liu Bei's future was limitless; maybe later...

Lady Zou had confidence in herself; she was very beautiful and knew how to act spoiled, so she would naturally be favored by Liu Bei and give birth to a few sons for him—wouldn't life be beautiful!

Lady Zou said softly.

"This little woman is lonely and helpless, and I hope my husband will not abandon me in the future."

Liu Bei nodded.

"Rest assured, I will treat you well and will not let you cry."

Everyone laughed; this matter was perfectly resolved, and the banquet could start again!

Everyone praised him inwardly—giving the wedding gift money for Zhang Ji directly to Liu Bei was truly great!

Liu Bei arranged for Xu Huang, Hao Zhao, and others to lead troops to the various counties of Hedong, while enjoying the festivities with the people!

Zhao Yun was in charge of city defense and did not drink.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei naturally drank a lot again.

Liu Bei held Guan Yu's hand.

"Yunchang, last time I married Cai Yan, you couldn't drink; this time, let's brothers drink our fill!"

Guan Yu was moved.

"Big Brother, you are always thinking of us; having you as a big brother is worth it for me, Guan Yu!"
