In ancient China and even in modern society, fellow villagers were very close gangs. During the Han Dynasty, if someone was wandering in a foreign country and there were fellow villagers who had established a stable foothold in the local area, then those who were wandering outside would definitely surrender.

If local fellow villagers do not receive them, it will be a big stain on their reputation.

It was the fellow villager who saw her and her eyes were filled with tears. It was like Taishi Ci who defected to Liu Yao, the governor of Yangzhou, a fellow villager.

Liu Biao was originally from the Central Plains. When he arrived in Jingzhou alone, he founded the foundation of Jingzhou. Yi Ji was Liu Biao's fellow townsman, and when he was young, he defected to Liu Biao.

Although Yi Ji was a fellow townsman of Liu Biao, he could not play with Cai Mao and others, so he was not valued by Liu Biao.

Since Liu Bei stationed in Xinye in the south, he has often traveled to Xinye and Xiangyang, secretly communicating with the brocade.

Liu Biao actually knew about this, but Liu Biao was not very murderous, and he also considered Yi Ji as a fellow villager. In addition, many people came to pay their respects to Liu Bei, which is known in history as "a hero who returned."

Even if you can't kill, you can turn a blind eye.

This time, Yiji crossed the Han River from the Xiangyang Ferry. After arriving on the road, he rode his horse to Xinye with his two followers. In just one day he arrived in Xinye.

After Yiji arrived in Xinye, he headed straight to the Zuo General's Mansion. In front of the Zuo General's Mansion, there was a team of armored soldiers guarding him.

Yi Ji has a very outstanding appearance, a majestic figure and a very dignified temperament.

He often came to visit Liu Bei, and the armored soldiers in front of General Zuo’s mansion also recognized him and remembered him deeply.

"Mr. Yi." The soldiers of armored soldiers saluted Yiji.

"Can General Zuo be there?" Although Yi Ji had an urgent matter, his face and voice were still calm.

"The lord is in the study, I will lead the sir in." A soldier said. Then, Yi Ji left his entourage and entered the Left General's Mansion with the soldier.

When Liu Bei was a teenager, he liked beautiful clothes, fought cocks and dogs, and was once a vain boy. When he grew up, he was greedy for authority.

If there is wealth in the mansion, it will be rewarded to the subordinates. Therefore, the residence is very simple and there are no rare things in any aspect.

Yiji came to the study to look for Liu Bei, but Liu Bei was not there. After asking a servant, he found out that Liu Bei had gone to the toilet. Yiji sat in the study and waited, and the servant went to inform Liu Bei that he had gone.

In the toilet.

Of course, everything was not beautiful in the Han Dynasty, and Liu Bei was not a particular person. This toilet was very garbage. It was okay in winter now, but in summer, it would be a place where mosquitoes breed.

Liu Bei's inventory was just halfway, and it was the time to relax. When he heard Yi Ji was coming, Liu Bei quickly grabbed a piece of paper, wiped his butt casually, put on his pants, and tied his belt.

He didn't even care about washing his hands and walked into the study. After seeing Yiji, Liu Bei laughed three times and bowed and said, "I haven't seen Mr. Ji Bo for a long time. I'm really worried. I heard that Mr. Bei was so happy."

Not to mention Liu Bei's heroes in the world, his official position is already very important, but he is the Left General and the governor of Yuzhou.

The official system of the Eastern Han Dynasty was divided into three dynasties.

Shangshutai was the inner court, headed by Shangshuling.

The Central Dynasty was headed by a general, with four generals on the left, front and back, Shizhong, Changshi, etc.

The outer court was made up of the three dukes and nine ministers.

During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty, Wei Qing was the general, and the prime minister of the Central and the Republic of the Foreign Minister was undermined. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the general was still above the Three Dukes.

General Zuo was a top senior official in the court.

Yi Ji was idle under Liu Biao's command and did not have any official position. However, he was treated so politely by Liu Bei. Of course, he was extremely moved. Moreover, it was not a long time since I saw you.

Yiji came here only half a month ago.

"General Zuo loves you." Even though Yi Ji was used to this scene, he couldn't resist it. His eyes were slightly red, and he stood up and bowed to return the salute.

After the greetings, the two sat down again.

"General Zuo, Ji came here this time, but he had something to report." Yi Ji calmed down and remembered his purpose this time, so he bowed and said.

"What's the matter?" Liu Bei's heart tightened after hearing this.

But he guessed that something bad must have happened, otherwise Yiji would not have come so specifically.

"Since General Zuo stationed troops in Xinye, General Zhennan (referring to Liu Biao) was afraid in his heart. Now that the scholars of Jingchu are all coming to Xinye, General Zhennan is even more afraid in his heart, so he wants to deduct General Zuo's money and food. Cai Mao, Zhang Yun and others are also afraid of General Zuo Xiongwu, so they took the opportunity to make suggestions to General Zhennan and cut General Zuo's money and food. General Zhennan has agreed that next month's food and grass, I'm afraid, hey."

Yiji sighed and said.

"What should I do?" Liu Bei was anxious when he heard this. The small people in Xinye City were scarce, and it was the limit to raise a thousand soldiers. His troops were as high as three thousand, and he relied on Liu Biao's support.

Otherwise it will be difficult to maintain.

Liu Biao is a cunning person, and his food supply is provided every month, which makes him half-deadly live. Now, he still has to cut food, which is a major crisis.

Yi Ji showed apologies when he heard this. However, he was a well-behaved scholar and was sent out to be an envoy, and he was somewhat anxious.

If you are a county magistrate or a county magistrate, you will be a perfect match.

It is also possible to become a scattered official in the dynasty or a less important position. But it is powerless to ask him to solve such a major problem.

Liu Bei knew people well, so he naturally knew Yi Ji's talent. He just said what to do, but he spoke in a hurry. At this moment, he saw Yi Ji's apologies and then woke up. Then he smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. for coming to report the message, I'm grateful. I'm thankful for working hard all the way. Mr., let's go and rest first."

"Come, please go down and rest." Then, Liu Bei called out another servant outside the door.

Yiji couldn't think of a solution, but was really tired, so he got up and bowed to Liu Bei, and then went down to rest with the servants.

"Come here, summon Sun Qian, Jian Yong, Mi Zhu, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, and Chen to come and see him." Liu Bei then gave the order loudly.

This is the current senior management of the Liu family's civil and military officials. Liu Bei did not convene some of the remaining guests who could not help, or those who are like Wei Yan and have a very low status.

Afterwards, Liu Bei left the study room and came to the hall to sit down.

Soon after, several people whose names were named came one after another. Sun Qian, Jian Yong and Mi Zhu were all great husbands and very graceful.

Needless to mention Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun was very elegant and smiled gently, as if he was a gentleman in his literati. Chen Dao looked heroic and taciturn. He served in the Zuo General's Mansion and was the first to arrive in Liu Bei's personal military commander. After entering the hall, he said nothing.

"Why are you so anxious to come here with me?" Zhang Fei is from Yan, and he speaks one by one. He still has a loud voice. He shouts as soon as he comes in.

And Zhang Fei happened to be the last one to come.

"Sit down." Liu Bei glared at Zhang Fei, and Zhang Fei smiled and sat down obediently.

People say that Zhang Fei is brave and good at fighting, and no one is afraid. Before Hulao Pass that day, Zhang Fei rushed up to fight Lu Bu, but in fact he was afraid of his eldest brother and second brother.
