~4 min read 649 words

Liu Bei took Zhang Fei to find Lu Zhi,

Lu Zhi couldn't help but laugh and scold,

"This Cai Yong is truly something. Last night I thought he was unwilling, but I didn't expect him to be so urgent now."

Lu Zhi had his family prepare the betrothal gifts for Liu Bei immediately.

Liu Bei gave a very heavy betrothal gift, and after working until evening, the marriage was finally settled. They would get married after he returned victorious.

Among the famous women of the Three Kingdoms,

Diao Chan was a maid, Lady Mi was the daughter of a great merchant, and the Qiao sisters had fallen on hard times, though they were good at music.

Zhen Mi was from a great clan in Zhongshan, a scholarly family, but unfortunately, she was too young.

The most suitable one to be a legal wife was Cai Yan,

Cai Yong had many students, and he could also recruit many talents later on.

"Husband, you must be very careful."

"I will definitely follow Sister Cai and learn a lot."

Early the next morning, Liu Bei said goodbye to Cai Yan and Lady Gan,

Lady Gan stayed in Luoyang temporarily with Cai Yan.

Cai Yan's eyes were filled with tears,

"Husband, you must be careful."

Liu Bei nodded and whispered in her ear,

"Rest assured, I'm still thinking about coming back to marry you."

Cai Yan smiled, her beautiful eyes swirling,

"Then I will think of a few brain teasers you mentioned and test you when you return."

For such a sentimental young lady, what could Liu Bei do? He could only come back and 'take care' of her properly!

"Giddyup!"

Liu Bei took Guo Jia and headed toward the military camp outside the city,

"Brother Xuande, congratulations on obtaining the most famous talented woman of the Great Han. I must drink this wedding wine when the time comes!"

Liu Bei laughed,

"Fengxiao, you must drink your fill. We are so compatible; we will never be separated in this life!"

Guo Jia's mouth twitched,

"Brother Xuande, actually, my head isn't very round."

Liu Bei laughed out loud,

"It seems our relationship is getting better and better; you even know how to joke."

Guo Jia... what a disaster!

Outside Luoyang City,

Liu Bei looked at the five hundred troops led by Gao Shun. The mental outlook of this unit had completely changed; they stood there in silence, having the look of a strong army.

"Good, Qu-Commander Gao, you truly train good soldiers."

Gao Shun remained in his calm manner, only cupping his hands,

"Captain, you flatter me."

Liu Bei didn't mind,

"The whole army, set off!"

Guo Jia looked at Liu Bei's back and nodded to himself,

"Brother Xuande has the ability to recognize talent and the capacity to tolerate others. It's not impossible for him to achieve great things, but his foundation is too shallow. Let's observe him a bit more."

Liu Bei led his army across the Yellow River and stayed in Henei Commandery for three days, waiting for Guan Yu, Bai Yuekui, and Hua Mulan to lead the main army.

Guan Yu dismounted and said excitedly,

"Big Brother, we finally meet again."

Liu Bei hugged him,

"Yunchang, we haven't seen each other for months; you've lost weight."

Bai Yuekui curled her lips,

"We helped Liu Yu defeat Zhang Ju's rebellion; we haven't rested well for these few months."

"Unlike you, taking a concubine and getting betrothed, humph!"

Guan Yu gave Liu Bei a look that said 'good luck to yourself' and turned to find Zhang Fei,

"Third Brother, long time no see; you've gotten fat again!"

Zhang Fei was instantly heartbroken,

"Second Brother, you shouldn't be like that!"

Hua Mulan also walked over and said in a low voice,

"Captain, you must not lose your ambition to material pleasures. You are shouldering the fate of the country." ===== CHAPTER 71 =====
