"You mentioned Naozi, maybe you did it on purpose, trying to find out about it, right?"

Liu Bei narrowed his eyes slightly and then asked.

"I did have such an idea at the time."

Wu Liang also nodded, "And the eldest brother's performance at that time actually confirmed some of my guesses..."

He knew very well that the real master of lies always mixed nine half-truths with half a lie, so that no one could doubt them. When Liu Bei asked these questions at this moment, he already had his own answers in his mind.

In this case, the more he denies it, the more counterproductive it will be. Liu Bei will be less and less able to trust him and will be less able to teach Wu Liang to take away this secret.

This way.

Conflict is inevitable.

Even now, Wu Liang still doesn't want to get into a fight with Liu Bei.

It's not that he didn't dare to kill Liu Bei. Even if it was Zhang Fei and Guan Erye who had a great influence on future generations, he would still take action without hesitation when it was time to take action, and he would do it very cleanly without leaving any consequences.

He just wanted to avoid conflicts as much as possible to avoid casualties among the Hu army.

After all, swords have no eyes. No one knows what unexpected things will happen in a fight. Moreover, Liu Bei now has more people than him, and there are two powerful generals, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, to help him. Wu Liang only has Dian Wei.

Clearly at a disadvantage.

And even if he really wants to take action, Wu Liang will do what he did to Ma Chao.

Attack them unprepared, take them by surprise!

If you don't take action, it's enough. If you take action, you will be able to eliminate the strongest combat force in Liu Bei's army in an instant. Take the absolute initiative and minimize the risk...

"But then I realized that there was no difference at all whether it was Liu Pengzu, Naoji and Naozi, or my eldest brother's ancestor Liu Sheng. After all, these were still household affairs of the Liu family, and I was an outsider following

It’s really foolish to think so wildly.”

Wu Liang continued, "Realizing this, I suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, so I no longer wanted to delve deeper into it, so I stopped mentioning it."

However, the fact is that Wu Liang later used the location of the tomb of Liu Sheng, Prince Jing of Zhongshan, to test Liu Bei. However, Liu Bei obviously did not know the exact location of Liu Sheng's tomb, so he was unable to make associations and assumptions.

"Hahaha, my fourth brother is indeed a transparent and wonderful person. He can always get to the essence of things when he looks at them."

Hearing this, Liu Bei finally laughed, put his arms around Wu Liang's shoulders and praised, "No matter what, I am always a clan member of the Han Dynasty. There is no doubt about this, and it is my duty to help the Han Dynasty."

.”

"Brother's face has already explained this."

Wu Liang nodded and said.

…

Liu Bei seemed to have dispelled his concerns about Wu Liang.

But Wu Liang did not give up his concerns about Liu Bei.

He had decided not to follow Liu Bei back to Changshan County. Instead, after finishing the follow-up matters here, he said goodbye to Liu Bei and parted ways from then on.

As for the "Bagua Mirror" that he had promised to supervise for Liu Bei, Wu Liang had already thought about it, so he drew a rough sketch for Liu Bei, indicating the specific dimensions that the goldsmith would be able to understand, and asked Liu Bei to find the gold himself.

Once the craftsman has finished it, he will not mix it with it.

And if Liu Bei showed any intention of letting them go during this process... Wu Liang would have no choice but to ignore his martial ethics, but I'm afraid it would be a pity for Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

About two hours later.

Wu Liang, the "little man", once again played an unexpected role.

"Fourth brother! Fourth brother!"

Wu Liang had already secretly informed the people of the Hu army and was preparing to pack their things when he heard Zhang Fei shouting loudly outside the camp, looking very anxious.

"Third brother, what's wrong?"

Wu Liang opened the curtain and walked out and asked.

"We have already moved all those golden couches out. Guess what?"

Zhang Fei said with a depressed look.

"This... I really can't guess it. Third brother, just tell me."

Wu Liang said helplessly.

"Hi--!"

Zhang Fei showed a disgusted expression, sighed and said, "I didn't expect that Liu Pengzu was also a loser. Except for the outermost layer of gold, the inside of the couch was made of materials that looked almost the same.

Filled with bronze, the total gold is less than eleven."
