送走了从青州来的使节,刘备略有些兴奋的在房间里来回走动。
不管当初在虎牢关前双方的关系究竟是什么,好歹吕布也是天下最著名的将领。反观刘备虽说是徐州牧,可是论起名声来跟吕布比还是有相当大的差距的,如今吕布跑来投奔刘备,别的不说,对刘备的名声绝对是一个巨大的提升,就是下邳城中那些瞧不起他的人,恐怕也会刮目相看。
不过对于刘备的这种心情,并不是所有人都能理解的,至少他的两个结拜兄弟就是如此。
“大哥,为何要让吕布那三姓家奴来徐州?”等到青州使节离开之后,一直跟在旁边的张飞有些不满的嚷嚷道。
关羽也在一旁赞同的点了点头,对于吕布这个三姓家奴显然也不是很看的起的样子。
“二位贤弟此言差矣,虽说此人曾先后背叛两主,然毕竟有功于汉室,又同曹操有仇,如今落魄来投,我若是拒绝了,令四方之士寒心不说,传扬出去,说不定还会让人以为我们怕了曹操...”
毕竟曹操同徐州有仇,如今吕布来投靠,刘备若是不收留,在外人看来跟他怕得罪曹操有什么区别?就算不考虑收留了吕布,对自身名望的提升,刘备也绝对不可能会拒绝——————不管徐州的人究竟有多怂,以至于在吕布同曹操交战的时候都不敢出兵相助,有一点还是很明确的,那就是徐州同曹操之间的仇恨绝对不是三言两语可以抹去的。
尤其是在徐州内部,更是有很多人对曹操恨之入骨,假如刘备不敢接纳吕布,被这些人视为是惧怕了曹操,只怕刘备的位置都要坐不稳了。
张飞也清楚刘备的话是对的,心里再怎么反对也没有开口说出来,到是关羽开口提醒道。
“大概还是多加小心才是,毕竟有丁原跟董卓的前车之鉴摆在那里...”
却是对吕布不是很信任,不得不提醒一句。
跟关羽比起来,刘备就要显得有自信的多了。“二位贤弟多虑了,如今吕布危难来投,我有恩于他,他又怎么会忘恩负义?他已经两次背叛前主,再这么做,恐怕天下人都要耻笑他了。”说到这里,刘备也看向了自己的两个兄弟。“再者我身边又有两位贤弟在旁,就是那吕布真的要做什么,又有什么可惧怕的。”
听到这话,两人有些骄傲的点点头,表示刘备说的很有道理。
想也是,有他们两个人在,就算是吕布真的想做些什么也绝对不可能会是对手。于是也就不再劝阻,毕竟继续劝阻下去,岂不是跟他们怕了吕布也没什么区别?
自然,想要将吕布他们安顿下来也不是件容易的事,想到这里刘备又派人将孙乾也招了过来,而后让孙乾去安排一下。
占据了徐州之后,小沛对于刘备已经没有什么特别重要的意义,将小沛借给吕布暂居,并不会影响刘备的利益,反而能多一个屏障,实在是有百利而无一害。
对于刘备收留吕布的事情,孙乾也没太多的异议,只是听从命令行事,从官库中提取了许多的粮草乃至布匹,打算等到吕布抵达小沛之后,至少供应一段时间。
嗯嗯,不好意思,后面的一定在两个小时内补上!!!
