Chapter 170 Why Tough? (Part 1) 1/3(1/2)

Hou Cheng's heart trembled suddenly.

Liu Chuang's words sounded dull, but Hou Cheng felt a strong murderous intent.

Hou Ji lay on the ground, flipped and wailed, but no one dared to go up to rescue him. Feixiongwei had already pulled out his steel knife and stared at him one by one, lined up behind Liu Chuang.

This Feixiong Guard experienced the Battle of Banyang from Liu Chuang, and then rushed from Donghai County to Xia Pi.

Perhaps, they are not able to survive many battles, but their combat power is extremely amazing.

Hou Cheng's face looked ugly and he felt a dilemma.

He never expected that Liu Chuang would be so tough and tough, just like the Lord of Xia Pi.

Thinking of Liu Chuang's identity, Hou Cheng couldn't help but feel a little regretful. He had run to Liu Chuang to provoke him before, and seemed to be a little reckless!

But the question now is, can he retreat?

As long as he showed a little bit of timid today, he would never want to raise his chest in front of Liu Chuang in the future. A sudden burst of hatred in Hou Cheng's heart. However, this hatred was not aimed at Liu Chuang, but more of a resentment towards Lu Bu. If Lu Bu hadn't indulged Liu Chuang, how could Liu Chuang dare to be so arrogant in Xia Pi City? Well, it was Lu Bu's indulgence! We were born and died for him, but we were not as good as a child.

Sometimes, this person's thoughts are very strange.

For example, Hou Cheng now does not think about taking the initiative to provoke him before, but instead blames Lu Bu for indulging in Liu Chuang.

In fact, this idea has a lot of market among the eight heroes, not Hou Cheng alone.

Liu Chuang was rampant in Xuzhou when he was young and defeated Lu Bu. With his background and Zheng Xuan and others, he became a prince at a young age and even made him a title. He was very glorious. In the past two years, the most glorious figure in Xuzhou was not Lu Bu, but Liu Chuang.

This also makes many people feel dissatisfied and even becomes a strong jealousy.

And the representative figure among them is Zang Ba.

Why did Zang Ba surrender to Cao Cao?

At first, Cao Cao took the emperor to order the princes to occupy the name of great righteousness.

Secondly, it is because of Liu Chuang's rapid rise that Zang Ba felt very uncomfortable...

Two years ago, Liu Chuang was as anxious as a dog that was strayed, and he didn't even have a place to live. With Zang Ba's help, he gained a foothold in Dongwu, and then settled in Beihai and became a prince. Two years later, the boy who had to spend money to buy a road back then was the Prime Minister of Beihai, General Yangwu, Marquis Guanting, and Emperor Uncle of the Han Dynasty. Whether it was Cao Cao, Lu Bu, and Yuan Shao, they all looked at him differently.

But what about Zang Ba?

He is still a small cavalry captain, and he can't even get into Langya County.

This gap in status made Zang Ba feel very frustrated... His initial friendship has gradually changed to resentment.

Similarly, he realized that Lu Bu was not enough to support him.

In the second year of Jian'an, Guo Jia went to Yangdu to lobby Zang Ba after many letters.

Who is Guo Jia?

Sikong military priest, Cao Cao's confidant adviser.

After some lobbying, Zang Ba became interested... Then, Cao Cao privately appointed Langya County and set up General Guangwu, which made Zang Ba make up his mind.

It is said that good birds choose trees to live in, and good ministers choose masters to work.

People go to high places, and water flows to low places... Zang Ba doesn't want to live such an nameless life in his life.

Although General Guangwu was a miscellaneous general, he was in charge of the conquest and was on par with General Yangwu. How could Zang Ba refuse such a huge temptation?

Not only Zang Ba, but also Hou Cheng, Song Xian and Wei Xu, they also felt uncomfortable.

Before this, Zang Ba often communicated with Hou Cheng's letters, and his words revealed his dissatisfaction with his current status and his jealousy towards Liu Chuang.

Jealousy is a disease and is easily contagious.

Hou Cheng and the other two had an aversion to Liu Chuang without realizing it.

As Lu Lan married Liu Chuang, Lu Bu often praised Liu Chuang, which made Hou Cheng and the other two feel even more annoyed.

There is no hero at that time, but he actually became famous!

There was roughly such an idea in the hearts of the three of them... so that when Hou Cheng saw Liu Chuang today, he couldn't help but burst out.

But I knew that Liu Chuang had to fight back so hard.

At this time, Hou Cheng was already in a difficult position to ride a tiger. He glared at Liu Chuang, suddenly roared, jumped into the horse and twisted the gun, and rushed towards Liu Chuang.

Liu Chuang felt sad, and he held a knife in one hand and stepped forward, urging the horse to meet him.

At this moment, a sudden sound of a bowstring sound was heard, and a sharp arrow shot from a distance, and a jingle shot between the two of them.

"Uncle Emperor, Yuan Ding, stop!"

A fast horse galloped along Baimenlou Street, and a general was Zhang Liao.

He was originally stationed in Guangling. Chen Gong and Cheng Lian discussed with him, and Cheng Lian was stationed in Huaipu and persuaded Zhang Liao back.

But when I arrived in Xia Pi, I heard that Liu Chuang and Hou Cheng were confronting each other on the long street. Zhang Liao naturally knew about Hou Cheng's thoughts.

As one of the eight powerful generals, Zhang Liao, Hou Cheng and Zang Ba and others have not had close relationships, but they occasionally gather together to have a drink.

He knew very well that Hou Cheng was dissatisfied with Liu Chuang.

But he didn't expect that Hou Cheng had an attack at this time, and was provoking trouble in the street... Who is Liu Chuang? Zhang Liao knew it very well. Although Liu Chuang usually looks very honest, he is absolutely cruel and ruthless when he kills people, and he will never leave any mercy.

Liu Chuang pulled up his horse and stared at Zhang Liao with a knife.

Hou Cheng was even more happy, "Wen Yuan came just right, Liu Chuang was arrogant and seriously injured my son on this long street. I also asked Wen Yuan to help me with my help, take down this beast, and wait for the Lord to leave."

"Wen Yuan, do you want to be an enemy of me?"

Liu Chuang asked coldly with his lips curled up.

Zhang Liao complained in his heart and immediately bowed, "Don't misunderstand, Liao Jue has no intention of this."

Hou Cheng's heart couldn't help but tremble, "Wen Yuan, could he be so arrogant when doing things?"

"Yuan Ding, shut up!"

Zhang Liao was furious and scolded sternly: "Now Cao Cao's troops are at the city, you don't want to worry about your lord and have to make trouble in the street. Do you know that you bully me?

The emperor’s uncle came here to help the emperor and was a guest.

Is it because you don’t know the importance of it? I don’t know how to treat guests?”

"Zhang Wenyuan..."

In terms of position, Zhang Liao's official position is much higher than that of Hou Cheng.

Hou Cheng was just a cavalry commander. Although he also had a salary of two thousand stones, he was a military official.

As early as the reign of Dong Zhuo, Zhang Liao was appointed as the commander of the cavalry, and later he was the prime minister of Lu. Therefore, in terms of status, Hou Cheng could not be compared with Zhang Liao. Zhang Liao was even more brave and powerful. Under Lu Bu, he was no match for Hou Cheng and others. At the same time, Zhang Liao was also the most powerful person under Lu Bu's tent... but Hou Cheng always felt that his status was not much different from Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao ignored Hou Cheng and bowed to Liu Chuang again.

"Uncle Emperor, why bother with children? Now Zishan has learned a lesson, so please let the emperor let him go."

Liu Chuang showed a silly smile, but didn't speak, and rode his horse back two steps back.

Zhang Liao could not understand what Liu Chuang meant, so he quickly bowed and thanked him again, turning his head and said, "Yuan Ding, would he have to die in the long street?"

Zhang Liao refused to help, and Hou Cheng believed that he was not Liu Chuang's opponent.

The reason why he had to fight with Liu Chuang just now was a last resort. Now... he quickly asked someone to rescue Hou Ji, glared at Liu Chuang fiercely, snorted coldly, and left.

Liu Chuang frowned slightly, and he couldn't help feeling a little regretful in his heart.

If Zhang Liao came here later, he would have killed Hou Cheng on the long street today.

Liu Chuang had no good feelings for Hou Cheng, and even had some disgust.

In history, Hou Cheng bought fifty horses and asked his disciples to graze him... He didn't expect that his disciples would take the horse to Peicheng and wanted to join Liu Bei. After hearing this, Hou Cheng brought people to take the horse back, so the generals congratulated him and slaughtered pigs. Originally, Hou Cheng brought half a fan of pigs and five dou of wine to offer to Lu Bu, but he didn't expect that Lu Bu would prosecute the alcohol ban. Hou Cheng was like committing crimes against the wind and was scolded by Lu Bu.

It was precisely because of this that Hou Cheng had the intention to rebel.

When Cao Cao's troops were trapped in Xia Pi, Hou Cheng and Song Xianwei Xu tied Chen Gong and surrendered to Cao Cao.

In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, it is said that Lu Bu beat Hou Cheng fifty sticks, so Hou Cheng stole the Red Rabbit Horse and surrendered to Cao Cao...

As far as this matter is concerned, it is not a matter of right or wrong.

Hou Cheng offered wine with good intentions, but the problem is that Lu Bu issued a ban on alcohol, so how can he be compatible? It is also a normal reaction to scold him.

Not to mention whether Lu Bu beat Hou Cheng Fifty Back Flower, it is said that he beat him in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

But even if he fights, Hou Cheng will hold a grudge and surrender with his back. If he doesn't fight and only a few rebukes will make him feel scared?

After all, Hou Cheng and others had long had the intention to betray Lu Bu... Whether it was the Romance of the Three Kingdoms or the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the fifty-backed flower and a scolding were just a cover-up. There is no way, who made Lu Bu a villain, the most unpopular in the Three Kingdoms era?

So Hou Cheng tried to provoke him, and Liu Chuang became murderous.

No matter how bad Lu Bu is, he is all his father-in-law. He doesn't want Lu Bu to be harmed by such a villain.

It was a pity in my heart that Liu Chuang and Zhang Liao immediately exchanged greetings.

As soon as Hou Cheng left, Chen Gong came with people... He also heard that Hou Cheng and Liu Chuang had an argument in the street, so he rushed to dissuade him. Seeing that Zhang Liao was also there, Chen Gong immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Since Wen Yuan was back, there must be nothing wrong.

"Uncle Emperor, why bother?"

"Can I beg me to swallow my anger?"

Chen Gong waved his hands repeatedly, "Uncle Emperor, the palace has no intention of this.
To be continued...
