The revival of the Han Dynasty must start with Dong Zhuo

Chapter 196 Volume Lü Guan Zhang Zhao
When Liu Xie heard that Liu Bei and his entourage had arrived in Chang'an, he directly summoned them into the palace.

Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Jian Yong, Sun Qian and others were ordered to enter the palace. When they saw the majestic palace, they could not help but exclaim in admiration.

"Is this the Weiyang Palace? It's so magnificent!"

Kong Rong was still somewhat knowledgeable, and he explained to them with a smile: "This is not the Weiyang Palace, but the Northern Palace which was built during the reign of Emperor Gao and was added by Emperor Xiaowu."

"The Weiyang Palace is on the south side, and it is several times larger than the North Palace."

They all took a breath.

If we say that they felt the style of the Han Dynasty was still there from the spirit and energy of the people in Guanzhong.

When you see the thousands of palaces in Chang'an, you can truly feel the heavy majesty of the Han Dynasty that has stood for four hundred years.

Even Liu Bei was looking around at this moment with a ruddy face.

Emperor Xiaowu!
According to the family tree, his ancestor, King Jing of Zhongshan and Emperor Xiaowu, were brothers!
Perhaps hundreds of years ago, the two of them were walking in this North Palace and advancing on these stone steps!

There is also the ancestor of Emperor Guangwu's branch, that is, Liu Fa, the Prince of Changsha and the sixth son of Emperor Xiaojing, who might have had a pleasant conversation with Liu Sheng, the Prince of Zhongshan, here.

At this moment, the "Han royal family relatives" that had long been vague suddenly became concrete.

Not to mention the Weiyang Palace where Emperor Gaozu lived, as well as the Changling Mausoleum and the Gaomiao Temple...

Liu Bei, who originally thought he was leaving his hometown, suddenly felt like a leaf returning to its roots here, and his eyes became red again because of his deep feelings.

"Everyone, please."

A eunuch led everyone to the outside of the North Palace: "His Majesty is waiting for you inside."

Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others hurriedly tidied their appearances. Liu Bei also nervously straightened his collar and adjusted his crown, preparing to meet the emperor.

"I don't know what the emperor looks like."

Liu Bei knew very well that without the emperor, he would never have been able to reach Chang'an and come to the Weiyang Palace, which was full of the marks of his ancestors.

As he was about to meet the emperor, Liu Bei also imagined the image of a majestic emperor in his mind.

Kong Rong noticed the tension among the crowd and whispered to comfort them: "Don't worry, everyone. Beigong has always been used only for games, not as formal as Weiyang Palace. Since the emperor chose to meet in Beigong, it proves that he is easy-going. Being too reserved is not a good thing."

Liu Bei and others then felt relieved and entered the North Palace.

As soon as they entered the North Palace, Liu Bei and others were once again shocked by its magnificence.

Beigong was originally a place for the emperor to play, but Emperor Liu Xie did not like to watch chicken and ball games, or horse and dog fights, so he flattened all the empty space in it and used it as a training ground for his daily confrontations with the Grand Tutor.

Because the previous sand table received unanimous praise from the generals, there is a huge Kyushu sand table in the center of the parade ground, which summarizes the entire terrain of the Han Dynasty.

The great rivers, the Yangtze River, the Taihang Mountains, and the Five Mountains are all displayed on the sand table map. Standing here is like overlooking the entire world.

In addition, there were some elite troops standing on one side for the emperor to command.

Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others saw at a glance a man like an iron tower standing in front of the sand table, with a fiery red war horse following behind him, rubbing the man's back affectionately.

Lu Bu also noticed something strange, looked up, and then he was shocked when he found Guan Yu and Zhang Fei!
Good man!
Warlike general!
"Your Majesty, who are those two people?"

"Don't worry, Fengxian."

Liu Xie noticed that Lu Bu was ready to make a move, so he asked him to suppress his warlike desire.

Just as Kong Rong guessed, Liu Xie's clothes at this moment were not too formal. He just wore a black robe under the Liu's crown, and a crimson collar as an inner garment. He lacked the majesty of an emperor and had more youthful spirit.

Locking his eyes on Liu Bei in the crowd, Liu Xie personally stepped forward to greet him: "Uncle, you have been running around for many days, you must be exhausted. It's all because I was eager to see you, so I urged you several times. I am ashamed."

Liu Bei's face was flushed at this moment, but he still quickly continued Liu Xie's words: "Your Majesty, I have seen you! It is my fault that I have caused Your Majesty so much trouble!"

Liu Xie looked at Liu Bei's face and saw that although his appearance was majestic, there seemed to be a sense of benevolence between his brows, which made Liu Xie like him even more.

"Since the decline of the Han Dynasty, most of the royal family has fallen into decline. I was quite pleased when I heard the name of the emperor's uncle."

"The emperor's uncle is the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan. Although his family is in decline, he is still a descendant of Emperor Gaozu, so he does have some heroic spirit."

Liu Xie ignored the surprised looks from the others behind him and directly grabbed Liu Bei's hand and led him to the palace: "Let's go! Please tell me about your experiences in Guandong in detail, uncle. Don't refuse."

……

The emperor is gone.

The emperor actually took Liu Bei away!

Kong Rong touched the tip of his nose somewhat awkwardly, but he was not surprised.

He discovered it while fleeing with Liu Bei.

As long as Liu Bei stood there, it was as if he exuded a charming aura from head to toe, turning everyone into Liu Bei's shadow, and everyone would ignore everyone except Liu Bei...

So it's okay once you get used to it.

Fortunately, the palace had complete etiquette, and soon the waiter led Kong Rong and his party into the palace.

In fact, not only Kong Rong was embarrassed, but even Lu Bu was confused.

Why did the emperor leave?

What should I do?
At this moment, something happened that made Lu Bu even more upset.

Red Hare, who usually ignored everyone except Guan Yu, turned his horse around, came close to Guan Yu, and affectionately nudged Guan Yu's arm with his neck!

Tolerable or unbearable!
Lu Bu immediately went over and cautiously pulled the reins of his horse, using his body to block Guan Yu and Red Hare and asked, "Who are you?"

"The horse archer under Lord Xuande, Guan Yu, also known by his courtesy name Yunchang!" Guan Yu?

Lu Bu seemed to remember that the emperor often talked about the two generals under Liu Bei's command who were "capable of defeating ten thousand enemies", named Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

"You are Guan Yu, so the black-faced man here must be Zhang Fei, right?"

"Exactly!"

However, Zhang Fei was a little unhappy: "Who are you? You are so impressive!"

"I am General Zhuguo, Marquis Wen Lu Bu! Lu Fengxian!"

When Guan Yu heard Lu Bu introduce himself, before Zhang Fei could say anything, his face changed.

He immediately bowed to Lu Bu and said, "So you are the Flying General Lu Bu. I have heard that you killed the Xiongnu Chanyu in battle and quelled the banditry in Hedong. I am from Jie County in Hedong. You are really a great favor to me for protecting my hometown!"

Although Guan Yu could sense Lu Bu's arrogance, he still upheld his inner righteousness and thanked Lu Bu.

After all, Guan Yu was born in Hedong, and Lu Bu pacified Hedong, which meant protecting Guan Yu's hometown, so Guan Yu had to accept this favor.

"So you are from Hedong? No wonder your accent doesn't sound like that of a Youzhou person. Instead, it sounds like mine, with a Bingzhou accent!"

When Lu Bu heard that Guan Yu was half his fellow villager, the hostility in his heart was somewhat reduced.

But what came next was restlessness.

"Seeing that you are also a straightforward person, I will also speak frankly!"

"Would you like to fight me? Stretch your muscles!"

At this moment, Lu Bu was full of fighting spirit and arrogance, and he was so anxious that he seemed to want to wrap Guan Yu and Zhang Fei up in it.

Guan Yu was a little hesitant. After all, Lu Bu held a high position and was also half his benefactor, so he couldn't bear to fight with him.

Zhang Fei was very excited. Without waiting for Guan Yu to stop him, he patted his chest and said, "Why not?"

"it is good!"

When Lu Bu saw that the black-faced Zhang Fei was so heroic, he was naturally very happy.

"Choose your own weapon! We'll have a good fight!"

After all, Guan Yu was unable to persuade Zhang Fei, and Zhang Fei had already agreed, so he could only be dragged to the side of the parade ground by Zhang Fei helplessly.

There were many strange-shaped weapons on the weapon rack, many of which even Zhang Fei had never seen before.

After taking a few casual glances, Zhang Fei grabbed a spear that was curling like a snake and said, "It's you!"

However, as soon as he caught him, Zhang Fei realized something was wrong.

So light!

Lu Bu also stepped forward and took a Fang Tian Hua Ji from it.

"These are weapons specially made by the emperor using bamboo, wood and paper for soldiers to practice with. They are not very lethal. Even if you get hit, it will only leave some red marks. Don't worry!"

After hearing Lu Bu's explanation, Guan Yu felt relieved. He picked out a Qinglong sword and held it in his hand, swinging it a few times casually.

Zhang Fei poked his snake spear into the ground and asked Lü Bu, "Who do you want to fight first? Me or my second brother?"

Lu Bu was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter wildly.

He dragged the Fang Tian Hua Ji on the ground, his eyes full of arrogance: "What do you mean by fighting with whom? You two can come together!"

Zhang Fei's black face quickly began to turn red, and his beard stood up straight like a tiger!
Guan Yu also slightly narrowed his phoenix eyes, the cold light in them was as sharp as a sword, as if he had thrown all his previous concerns behind his mind!
Madness!

The three men each rode their horses and stood in the parade ground. The noise they made quickly attracted the attention of others.

Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and Zhang Xiu were the first to come over.

When they heard that someone dared to challenge Lu Bu in a duel, their first reaction was that the person was crazy!

Or maybe that person simply wants to die!

The three of them had even discussed beforehand whether they could defeat Lu Bu by joining forces.

But the conclusion I came to was so tragic that I gave up on this matter.

In their minds, unless the former King of Western Chu was reborn, no one in the world could be Lu Bu's opponent.

So when they heard that someone dared to challenge Lu Bu, their first reaction was that the other party was looking for death!

But when they arrived at the parade ground and saw Guan Yu and Zhang Fei clearly, the three of them suddenly stopped laughing.

"Those two people are very strong!"

The first time Zhang Xiu saw Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, he felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy, as if he had seen some ferocious beast.

He had a hunch that even if he sent Hu Che'er, the most capable fighter under his command, here, he would not be able to withstand three moves from Guan Yu or Zhang Fei.

Gao Shun also looked solemn: "Where did these two people come from?"

Zhang Liao: "It seems to be the person brought by Liu Bei, a relative of the Han Dynasty."

The three people who were originally just there to have fun suddenly became serious.

Because they realized that this competition was no joke!
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are both among the few peerless warriors in the world who can truly pose a threat to Lu Bu!
