Zhao Yun's return was a great thing for Liu Bei.
Now that the Shu army had been defeated, they were already short of soldiers and food, let alone Zhao Yun, who was a general and had the courage to fight ten thousand men.
However …
When he saw Zhao Yun approaching, Liu Bei's face gradually fell.
On the carriage behind Zhao Yun, there was a large "Cao" character written on it!
Perhaps it was intercepted by Zilong.
Thinking of this, Liu Bei's originally unhappy face instantly changed, and he looked at Zhao Yun with surprise.
"My lord, I'm back!"
Zhao Yun quickly got off the horse and knelt down to Liu Bei.
Liu Bei quickly helped Zhao Yun up and said with a smile, "Zilong, please get up! It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back! "
Zhao Yun grief-stricken, he said.
"It's a pity that I'm the only one back, the soldiers are all …"
Zhao Yun really couldn't bear to continue. Although he had the ability to protect himself and was not injured at all in the battle of Xinye, there were not many soldiers left under him.
After a short rest, Zhao Yun led the few soldiers to Jiangxia and rushed day and night. On the way, they encountered Cao Hong's troops. After a battle, the soldiers were all wiped out.
These soldiers were all personally trained by Zhao Yun, and each of them was loyal and not afraid of death. Now that he looked at the empty space around him, Zhao Yun felt very uncomfortable.
"Zilong! You're finally back! "
After the doctor bandaged his wounds, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei hurried over. When they saw Zhao Yun, they were not very excited.
Although Zhao Yun and Zhuge Liang were outsiders, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei had seen Zhao Yun's martial arts and were sincerely convinced.
"General Guan, General Zhang, why did the two of you suffer such heavy injuries?!"
Zhao Yun widened his eyes and looked at the two in shock.
Zhang Fei punched the Serpent Spear with his fist and said angrily,
"The Cao Army had already predicted our ambush location. When Second Brother and I saw that Xinye was on fire and the Cao Army had not retreated, we wanted to go help you. In the end, we were ambushed by the Cao Army!"
"When have I ever suffered such humiliation? If I see that Bai guy in the future, I'll skin him alive!"
Zhao Yun sighed softly, his grief was indescribable.
"General Zhao is truly brave and invincible. In the future, I will definitely let the historians record your achievements!"
Lady Mi, who had remained motionless in the carriage, sneered as she slowly walked down from the carriage.
Zhao Yun hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Lady.
"Madam, you're exaggerating. Zilong only did what he should do. He didn't contribute anything."
"You sure know how to talk."
Lady Mi narrowed her eyes and said,
"Merits need to be rewarded and faults need to be punished. Husband, am I right?"
Zhuge Liang immediately sensed the hidden meaning in Lady Mi's words and frowned.
Zhao Yun had always been loyal. This was something that could not be faked. Why did Lady Mi's words make it seem as if Zilong had committed a grave mistake?
How was this a compliment? It was clearly a question!
Liu Bei obviously did not understand Lady Mi's meaning. He also had some doubts and did not reply.
Lady Mi continued,
"It's true that you saved me and my son. However, can you tell us what that thief said to you when he approached you?!"
After saying this, Lady Mi glared at Zhao Yun.
Along the way, Lady Mi was apprehensive. Zhao Yun's actions were as if he had defected to the enemy. The Cao Army completely ignored Zhao Yun.
Lady Mi was afraid that Zhao Yun would not bring her to Liu Bei's side, but to Cao Cao's side.
This was especially true for Cao Cao's beloved wife. Lady Mi had been extremely cautious throughout the journey.
"Previously, General Guan had no choice but to stay in the Cao Army. In order to leave the city, he had to overcome five obstacles and kill six generals. If General Zhao is not defecting to the enemy, then what is?!"
Lady Mi's words were powerful and forceful as she questioned Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun was stunned. For a moment, he did not know what to say. He quickly cupped his hands and said, "Lady, this general did not say anything to that thief, nor did I defect to the enemy."
Lady Mi continued to sneer, "Zhao Yun, I saw everything with my own eyes. You actually dare to deny it?"
"The one who captured me was a general from the Cao Army. That person is extremely sinister and vicious. How could he be so close to you? From the start, he was so concerned about your well-being and even gave up on me and my son."
"That Cao Cao hates my husband to the bone. This is something that everyone knows! Ah Dou is my husband's only child. Do you think that Cao Cao would give up on this opportunity and let us go? "
"If you didn't defect to the Cao Army, would they have let you go so easily?!"
Every word struck at the heart, causing the surrounding people to be shocked. They stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do.
Zhao Yun defected to the enemy?
How was this possible?
Everyone knew Zhao Yun's character. However, why would Lady Mi accuse Zhao Yun for no reason?
Furthermore, Lady Mi's words were not without reason. All of this was too inconceivable.
Zhao Yun did not have a single injury on his body. There were even very few bloodstains on his body.
Even Liu Bei, who trusted Zhao Yun, had an unsightly expression on his face. The Guan and Zhang duo, who had treated him warmly just a moment ago, had a slight change in their eyes.
All of this was seen by Zhao Yun.
Zhang Fei clenched his teeth and stood up, saying, "Sister-In-Law, you misunderstood me.
"Sister-in-law, I'm afraid you've misunderstood. I know that Zilong is not that kind of person."
Guan Yu stroked his beard and said, "Third brother is right. We all know Zilong's character. He would never defect to the enemy!"
Hearing the two's words, Zhao Yun was moved and said,
"Zilong really does not understand Lady Mi's meaning! Zilong has a clear conscience! "
Lady Mi pressed on, "What a good 'clear conscience'! Let me ask you, did you have any verbal communication with that thief general? "
The corner of Zhao Yun's mouth twitched and he said,
"There was indeed such a thing, but it was just a casual conversation …"
Hearing this, the Guan and Zhang duo, who were standing beside Zhao Yun a moment ago, could not help but take two steps back.
Zhao Yun actually … admitted it!
Lady Mi stared at Zhao Yun and said,
"Do you think we're all idiots? Casual conversation? That thief general happily chatted with you, and you're telling me that it was just casual conversation? "
At this moment, Zhuge Liang had witnessed everything that had happened. Looking at Zhao Yun, whose eyes were slightly red, his heart was filled with all sorts of thoughts.
Zhuge Liang did not believe that Zhao Yun had betrayed him.
Zhuge Liang knew what kind of person Zhao Yun was. Back then, when he was under Gongsun Zan, Zhuge Liang had heard of Zhao Yun. Even now, they were working together in the Shu army.
It was not hard to see that Zhao Yun was not someone who could easily change masters.
This matter was definitely being manipulated by someone.
Lady Mi had been calling out the thief general, but she did not know his name.
Lady Mi had followed Liu Bei for many years and had interacted with the Cao Army many times. She recognized most of the Cao Army's generals, but she did not recognize this person.
This made Zhuge Liang start to guess the identity of this person.
