Your Majesty, please spare Diao Chan; your yang energy is too strong.

"So that's my third objective?"

Zhou Heng smiled slightly.

Zhao Yun frowned: "The third objective?"

"That's right. Now that Liu Bei and I are like oil and water, I naturally know that Zilong was once a close friend of his."

"Naturally, we must prevent anything that could aid the enemy."

"It would be best to bring their support under our control, so that we can rest easy."

"Actually, to be honest, my initial target wasn't your sister, but you."

"Zilong once served under Gongsun Zan, fought valiantly against Wen Chou, and became famous throughout the land."

"Although I am just a commoner, I have heard of you before."

"Who wouldn't love such a fierce general?"

"I am the same."

"Since I'm on my way to Jizhou and passing through Changshan, why not give it a try?"

"I never expected that I would not meet Zilong on this trip."

"I happened to encounter your sister's situation, which is why I stepped in to help."

Zhou Heng paused here before continuing.

"But those were all previous goals. Ever since I met your sister, it's been a lifelong commitment."

Therefore, my sister and I are truly in love.

"This is absolutely true."

"If Zilong doesn't believe me, he can simply stab me to death with his spear."

"Now my life is in your hands. How to choose is entirely up to Zilong."

Zhou Heng said seriously.

Zhao Yun frowned: "Is that really so?"

Zhou Heng nodded: "If there is any falsehood, you may kill or torture me as you see fit."

Zhao Yun remained silent.

His eyes were fixed on Zhou Heng, as if trying to tell whether what he said was true or false.

However, this matter is indeed true.

The other party naturally couldn't see anything.

"you........."

Zhao Yun's expression was uncertain, and he was about to say something when a dissatisfied voice came from afar.

"elder brother."

If she's not his younger sister, then who is Zhao Yu?

"I've already explained things to you clearly, so why did you still hurt my brother Heng?"

"If you don't give a clear explanation today, don't blame me, your younger sister, for disrespecting you, your older brother."

Looking at the wounds on Zhou Heng's neck, Zhao Yu felt a pang of heartache, and tears welled up in her eyes.

Zhao Yun: "???"

Zhao Yun's face fell, and his serious expression collapsed instantly.

Zhao Yun was at a loss: "Sister...me."

Zhao Yu said angrily, "I never want to talk to you again."

"Yu'er, it's alright, your brother-in-law is just joking with me."

Fortunately, at the crucial moment, Zhou Heng quickly spoke up.

There's a limit to joking around. Look how badly I've hurt you.

Zhao Yu refused.

As she spoke, she tore off a piece of her clothing with heartache and carefully bandaged Zhou Heng's wound.

Zhou Heng laughed heartily: "This is not our first meeting. I have long heard of Zilong's unparalleled bravery. Seeing him today, I can see that he is indeed extraordinary."

Zhao Yun breathed a sigh of relief.

The way she looked at Zhou Heng softened considerably, even carrying a hint of gratitude.

After all, although Zhao Yun is fearless at this stage, his sister is his family.

Naturally, he didn't want his younger sister to misunderstand him.

Fortunately, that didn't happen.

Zhao Yun: "That's right, little sister, it's my fault. I was itching to show off my skills when I first saw Zixiu..."

"Hmph, you two are the most important people in my life. You're not allowed to do that again."

.............

With Zhao Yu around, things became much easier.

Adding to Zhou Heng's previous words, Zhao Yun could be considered to have acknowledged Zhou Heng's authority.

After all, the die is cast.

Even if you disagree, what can you do?

Zhao Yun was quite displeased with this scheme.

But there was nothing that could be done.

I could only reluctantly agree.

The two immediately performed the traditional wedding ceremony in Zhao Family Village.

Zhao Yu successfully became Zhou Heng's concubine.

Even her younger sister married Zhou Heng.

As the brother-in-law, how could Zhao Yun possibly go and serve another?

Not to mention that Zhou Heng had already revealed his purpose beforehand.

I came here specifically for you, Zhao Yun.

Now you've married your sister.

How could it possibly make sense if you didn't come to my aid?

Not to mention Zhou Heng wouldn't agree, even his sister wouldn't agree!

It's impossible for your own brother to seek refuge with someone else and then come back to beat up your own husband!

Wouldn't that be the most ridiculous thing in the world?

Therefore, it was only natural that Zhao Yun became one of Zhou Heng's men.

After successfully capturing Zhao Yun, Zhou Heng couldn't help but feel secretly fortunate.

This is why Zhou Heng took his sister.

He was completely helpless.

If Zhou Heng hadn't won over Zhao Yun's sister, it would have been virtually impossible for him to subdue Zhao Yun.

My previous idea of ​​recruiting Zhao Yun was too idealistic.

Because you can tell from Zhao Yun's previous attitude towards Liu Bei.

Even though he's not with Liu Bei right now, he's still wholeheartedly thinking about Liu Bei.

This incident even led to a prejudice against Zhou Heng.

If it weren't for family ties, Zhou Heng would have wanted to recruit Zhao Yun.

It's simply a fantasy.

This has nothing to do with anything else.

More importantly, Zhao Yun had already decided in his heart that he was loyal to Liu Bei.

If Zhao Yun wanted to join another party.

How could he possibly follow Liu Bei, who was constantly on the move?

It's important to know that after Zhao Yun resolved his family affairs, he went to join Liu Bei. What was Liu Bei's situation at that time?

The Battle of Guandu has just begun.

Liu Bei also lost Xuzhou.

The brothers also got separated.

He even lost his wife.

He had no soldiers under his command.

Even he himself kept switching between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao.

What future is there in following a lord like that?

If you hadn't chosen Liu Bei, wouldn't Cao Cao or Yuan Shao have been better choices?

Especially the Battle of Changban later on.

At that time, Liu Bei had nothing.

Why did Zhao Yun risk his life to save his son from among tens of thousands of soldiers?

Wouldn't it be uncomfortable to take Liu Bei's child and surrender to Cao Cao?

It's all because of Liu Bei.

This is why Zhou Heng secretly felt lucky.

If we say that Liu Bei had three loyal followers...

Besides Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, the remaining person is definitely not Zhuge Liang, nor is it anyone else.

It was Zhao Yun.

Because when Zhuge Liang joined Liu Bei.

Liu Bei was at least a regional warlord, and he still had a place to live.

Even though Xinye City is a bit small.

But no matter what, at least we have a place to stay.

Under what circumstances did Zhao Yun join Liu Bei?

He had no one under his command, and even Liu Bei himself was living under someone else's roof.

Zhao Yun could only remain a bandit on Woniu Mountain, waiting for Liu Bei.

It is easy to imagine how deep the friendship was between Liu Bei and Zhao Yun.

But that's all in the past.

No matter how deep the affection or how good the friendship, how can it compare to family love?

Especially my younger sister, whom I grew up with.
