Chapter 1735: Unify Jizhou (Part 1)

Guan Yu originally thought that Zhu Di was here to capture him, or even to kill him, but Zhu Di said that he was here to see him off. This also made Guan Yu a little confused and confused as to what Zhu Di wanted to do.

In Guan Yu's view, Zhu Di was decisive and resourceful. He could be called a wise ruler, but he was by no means a benevolent king.

It is precisely because of this that Guan Yu will go to Xu Shiji instead of Zhu Di when he leaves, because in his opinion, Zhu Di is unlikely to let him go even if there is an agreement.

But after hearing what Zhu Di had just said, Guan Yu realized that he had wrongly blamed Zhu Di, and he suddenly felt a sense of shame in his heart.

"The reason why Guan left without saying goodbye was not because he did not believe in King Ming's character, but because his brother was in danger in Luoyang, and Guan was anxious to rescue him, so he left without saying goodbye."

Guan Yu is not a person who likes to lie, but these words are pure nonsense. After all, he can't possibly tell Zhu Di face to face that I just left because I don't believe in your character, right?

Although Zhu Di knew that Guan Yu was lying, he didn't care. Instead, he grabbed Guan Yu's hand and said seriously: "Brother Yun, when the Ming Dynasty was in the most critical time, you kept your promise and never gave up. You guarded Xiaopei and fought in the war." Yin Shou, aided Huaibei, injured Lu Wenlong, and helped the Ming Dynasty survive this catastrophe. You are Zhu Di and the benefactor of the entire Ming Dynasty. "

Hearing Zhu Di's words, Guan Yu felt a little ashamed in his eyes. Zhu Di's words were a bit too high for him.

 Only he knows his own situation. Under the attack of Wei and Song Dynasties, Zhu Ming was able to survive the disaster of national subjugation. Guan Yu only played a supporting role. It was mainly Zhu Di and Fan Zeng who turned the tide.

But in Zhu Di's words, it seemed that there was no Guan Yu, and Zhu Ming might have perished. He attributed most of the credit to Guan Yu, which made Guan Yu feel a little embarrassed.

"Where is King Ming? Even if there is no Guan Yu, as long as King Ming, Military Master Fan and Governor Xu are here, Ming Dynasty can still turn danger into safety." Guan Yu said seriously.

Zhu Di shook his head and continued: "Luoyang is also a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, and it is no safer than the Central Plains.

Now, out of loyalty and righteousness, Yunchang wants to leave me. Although I am unwilling to do so, I dare not stop him. I have come here to see Yunchang off personally to thank Yunchang for saving my Ming Dynasty from danger. "

After saying this, Zhu Di called for the soldiers to bring drinks, took one cup for himself, and sent the other cup to Guan Yu.

Seeing this, Guan Yu thought for a moment and then picked up the wine glass. He believed that Zhu Di would definitely disdain poisoning.

“I will take this glass of wine to support Brother Yun.”

After saying that, Zhu Di drank it all in one gulp and said thoughtfully: "I hope you will take it seriously and have a safe journey."

Seeing this, Guan Yu also drank it all in one gulp, cupped his fists and saluted back: "Thank you, King Ming, take care of yourself."

After saying that, Guan Yu took Mrs. Zhang Feigan and others and left under the eyes of thousands of cavalry, but these more than a thousand cavalry did not move at all.

 Watching Guan Yu and his party gradually disappear from sight, an extremely complicated look flashed in Zhu Di's eyes.

Seeing this, Niu Mowang stepped forward and asked, "My lord, are you going to let Guan Yu go like this?"

 “What if?” Zhu Di asked.

"Since a famous general like Guan Yu has betrayed our army, even if the lord appreciates his merits and cannot bear to kill him, he cannot be let go. This is to endanger the enemy." Niu Mowang said.

Hearing this, Zhu Di glanced at Niu Mowang indifferently and said with a smile: "I naturally know what General Niu said, but I did have an appointment with Guan Yu, and he also made an appointment for our Ming Dynasty. With enough credit, he is the benefactor of the entire Ming Dynasty.

If I kill you just because Guan Yu wants to leave, what will the other officers in the army think? How will people in the world view me, Zhu Di? "

"this…"

Niu Mowang was speechless for a moment. He knew that his lord was right. If he really killed Guan Yu, who had great achievements, his lord's reputation would definitely be affected.

 In fact, when he first learned the news that Guan Yu was leaving, Zhu Di was very angry and even thought about killing Guan Yu. However, during the pursuit, Zhu Di had already completely figured it out.

His every move now attracts the attention of countless people, and any small mistake will be infinitely magnified by his opponents and used to damage Zhu Di's reputation and reputation.

So, if Zhu Di really kills Guan Yu, Cao Cao and Zhao Kuangyin will definitely seize this and take advantage of him. Although Zhu Di does not care much about reputation, he does care about the opinions of some people, such as Zhu Tianpeng.

As the cooperation between Ming and Qi deepened, Zhu Tianpeng became more and more satisfied with Zhu Di, and now he even had the faint idea of ​​​​remerging Qi into the Ming Dynasty.

If the news that Zhu Di broke his promise and killed heroes was revealed at this time, would it affect his image in Zhu Tianpeng's mind?

 What would Zhu Tianpeng think of him?

 Would it affect Qi’s annexation to Ming Dynasty?

 These are all unknowns.

At this point, Zhu Di realized that Xu Shiji's words to persuade him were not entirely interceding for Guan Yu, but more for his consideration.

It is true that Guan Yu can be killed, but killing a Guan Yu will break the trust of the world. This is not worth it to Zhu Di.

 After returning to Xuzhou, Zhu Di found Fan Zeng immediately, and Fan Zeng also knew everything at this time, and immediately smiled and said: "Di'er, you handled the Guan Yu matter very well.

It's just Guan Yu, it doesn't matter at all. What you have to look at is the whole world. This is the true magnanimity of a king. "

 “Thank you, Father, for teaching me.”

On the surface, Zhu Di looked like he was being taught with an open mind, but when Fan Zeng left, his face instantly became extremely gloomy, and he whispered: "Come out."

 “See lord.”

Two figures stepped out of the shadows and saluted. They were the sons of the deceased Zhu Wen, Zhu Youwen and Zhu Yougui.

After Zhu Di glanced at the two of them, he said in a deep voice: "Immediately send an order to the director of the Sun Moon God Sect, Wo Xing, and ask him to separate Guan Yu from the Ming Dynasty and prepare to go to Luoyang via Mangdang Mountain. He quietly revealed it to the Song and Wei Dynasties. country."

 “Nuo.” Zhu Yougui and Zhu Youwen immediately took the order and left.

In the battle of Taihang Mountain, the factory guards established by Zhu Yuanzhang were almost completely destroyed by Qin Hao in the battle, and they have not recovered to this day.

Just when Zhu Di felt deeply powerless in terms of intelligence, Ren Woxing, Xiang Wentian and others who broke away from the Ming Sect and founded the Sun Moon God Sect took the initiative to join Zhu Ming, which could be regarded as filling the weakest link under Zhu Di.

Looking at the two people leaving, a trace of sadness flashed in Zhu Di's eyes, and he said to himself: "Guan Yu, don't blame me. It's you who failed to live up to my expectations. What is so good about Liu Bei, and what about me?" How is he inferior?"

 Zhu Di did not forgive Guan Yu after all. For his own reputation and his status in Zhu Tianpeng's heart, he could not personally kill Guan Yu, but he was prepared to borrow the help of Cao Cao and Zhao Kuangyin.

Guan Yu killed Yin Hong, Yin Shou's son, and wounded Lu Wenlong. He had completely offended the Song and Wei countries.

Cao Cao and Zhao Kuangyin, if they knew that Guan Yu was going to Luoyang to find Liu Bei, they would definitely not let Guan Yu arrive in Luoyang alive.

Seeing this, Qin Hao was immediately surprised and said: "Guan Yu broke away from Zhu Ming? Is he going to find Liu Bei again? I don't know if he will be able to kill six generals through five passes this time."
