Abnormal Three Kingdoms

Chapter 653
In the governor's mansion, Liu Biao's consciousness was a little drowsy, and his body was already extremely weak.

He knew that his life was not long!

In a daze, Cai's voice was heard beside his ears.

This poisonous woman!

Liu Biao sighed in his heart, and his muddled mind regained a little clarity. Although he was very careful, he did not expect to fall into the ways of these people, and he just wanted to quit.

The dragon spirit of the great Han collapsed, Liu Biao, who is a member of the royal family and the lord of a state, naturally felt it. Jingzhou said it belonged to him, but in fact it was not Jingzhou's gentry. He was old, and his two sons could not support one side. The ability of the princes, just want to let go and go to Xuchang to support the rest of the world.

But sometimes, the chess game in the world is really not something you can quit if you want to. I thought you were a chess player, but in the end it was actually just a chess piece.

"Husband, Uncle Huang has come to see you." Cai's voice was soft and mournful beside the bed.

If he didn't know the nature of this poisonous woman, he might have been deceived by her gentle tone.

"Xuan... Xuande is here!?" Liu Biao's spirit was shaken, he tried to open his eyes, looked at Liu Bei, and stretched out his hand as if trying to grab something.

"Brother!" Liu Bei stepped forward, held Liu Biao's hand, and said in a low voice, "Be here!"

"Madam, my husband would like to have a few words with Xuande alone, okay?" Liu Biao turned his head and looked at Mrs. Cai with a bit of pleading in his eyes.

Cai's eyebrows were slightly frowned, but she still bowed and slowly exited the room.

"Brother is always in good health, why is this so?" Liu Bei looked at Liu Biao and asked.

"Don't ask too many questions." Liu Biao shook his head, breathed a sigh of relief before he said, "I know Xuande has always had great ambitions. A few days ago, the dragon spirit of the great man collapsed, Xuande should have a sense of it!"

Liu Bei nodded, he possessed dragon spirit, but the feeling was more intense than Liu Biao.

"The big man... is dead..." Liu Biao's voice was full of tears: "Brother, I just want to withdraw from you, and I don't want my heirs to be cut off. This Jingzhou has never been mine, it has never been, and I can't keep it, and I don't want to keep it anymore. I just went to Beijing to report on my duties according to the order, and left this place of right and wrong, even so, they are not willing to let me go..."

He can understand the betrayal of the gentry. After all, he has been entangled with the gentry for so many years. He knows what kind of virtue the gentry is, but what really makes him lose his mind is the betrayal of the person next to him.

Liu Bei was silent, he naturally didn't want to give up, but seeing Liu Biao like this, he suddenly felt in his heart that Chu Nan was right, the gentry really did anything for their own benefit!
The gentry should indeed be weakened!
Is your decision really right?
But in his mind, Zhang Fei's voice and smile looked at Fu County, Liu Bei's eyes became firm again, and the dragon aura of the Han Dynasty collapsed. Perhaps it was what Chu Nan did. According to Meng Jian, he was also a person with dragon aura. It may not be impossible to revive the Han Dynasty.

"Don't worry, brother, Bei will definitely revive the great man!" Liu Bei said seriously.

Liu Biao was stunned, looked at Liu Bei, and then shook his head: "It's difficult! Xuande, the general situation is irreversible. Chu Nan is right, the gentry should be cut!"

Liu Bei nodded silently, he agreed with this point, but even so, he can do it, why must Chu Nan do it?

"Be willing to give it a try!" Liu Bei looked at Liu Biao and said seriously.

Liu Biao looked at him blankly, and nodded after a long time. After a long silence, Liu Biao pointed to the bed with difficulty: "There is a hidden compartment here, Xuande, let's open it."

Liu Bei stretched out his hand, followed the direction Liu Biao pointed, and found a hidden compartment under the couch, where a seal lay quietly.

It is Liu Biao's assassin seal.

"This is the seal of the governor of Jingzhou. They have always wanted it. Since Xuande has such great ambitions, let's try it." Liu Biao closed his eyes weakly, and said in a sad voice, "Please protect my son from death and my veins." Absolutely!"

Liu Bei looked at the jade seal in his hand, then at Liu Biao who had closed his eyes, finally knelt down in front of Liu Biao's bed, and bowed solemnly to Liu Biao: "Thank you brother for the gift, I will never forget my brother's kindness!"

Liu Biao didn't answer, his body was already very weak, he had exhausted most of his strength after talking to Liu Bei, and he was already falling into a deep sleep.

Liu Bei bowed again, holding the jade seal with both hands, slowly got up, bowed and left the room.

Outside the room, Mrs. Cai saw Liu Bei coming out, and then looked at the jade seal in Liu Bei's hand, her eyes turned cold. She had been looking for this thing for a long time but could not find it. She didn't want the old thing to be with her, so she immediately wanted to reprimand Liu Bei for stealing the jade seal and plotting something wrong.

At this moment, Kuai Liang, Cai Mao, Kuai Yue, and Meng Jian came in. Kuai Liang looked at Liu Bei with a smile, and said with a slight bow: "It seems that the Lord entrusted Jingzhou to Xuande Gong."

Mrs. Cai frowned and looked at her brother, seeing Cai Mao nodded in a subtle way, Mrs. Cai glanced at Liu Bei, put away the coldness in her eyes, restored her graceful and dignified appearance, and bowed to Liu Bei.

There was not much joy on Liu Bei's face, but he said with a heavy face: "Brother Jing Sheng gave a generous gift, and Bei didn't dare to accept it rashly. However, the current situation is critical, and Brother Jing Sheng is seriously ill on the bed. To block the attack of the Chu rebels, I am not ready, I would like to take Jingzhou temporarily, and return this thing after the repulsion of Chu Nan and my brother's recovery!"

Of course, it was Liu Biao who returned, not the two nephews. If Liu Biao disappeared, he would be Liu Biao's designated heir.

"Xuande Gong Gaoyi!" Kuai Yue bowed slightly, looked at Liu Bei and said, "The situation is critical, I immediately summon all the officials and generals in Jingzhou to make a final decision on this matter, so as to avoid any misunderstanding!"

"I'm sorry." Liu Bei nodded solemnly.

The next thing is simple, Liu Bei is quite popular in Jingzhou, and now he has the support of Cai Kuai and his family, and it will be a matter of course for him to take over Jingzhou smoothly.

Of course, since he got this advantage and received the help of the two, the appointment of the Jingzhou official will naturally be constrained by others, just like Liu Biao before.

Liu Bei has experience in governing Xuzhou and knows how to get along with the gentry. The current situation is not the time to deal with the issue of the gentry. Chu Nan is right in front of him. Now is the time to integrate these forces.

He appointed Guan Yu as Zhonglang General, worshiped Kuaiyue as Jingzhou Biejia, Kuailiang as Changshi, Cai Mao as Commander of the Navy, Guan Yu, Chen Dao, Wenpin, Liu Hu, Liu Pan, Guan Ping, Xiahou Bo as General, in addition Ma Liang and Kou Feng were also recruited by Liu Bei, Meng Jian served as a sacrificial wine for the military commander, and Shi Tao was temporarily the master book. In addition, the generals of the army also received awards.

At the same time, he was quite friendly to Cai Mao, Kuai Liang and others. For a while, Jingzhou's morale was revived.

"My lord, right now Chu Nan's army is stationed in Nanyang but they don't send troops. I'm afraid it's just to wait for Jing Sheng's death and the civil strife in Jingzhou. Now that Jingzhou has successfully survived the crisis and the lord is in charge of Jingzhou, Chu Nan will definitely send troops south. Make preparations early!" In the main hall, Kuai Liang looked at Liu Bei and smiled.

Liu Bei nodded. He had achieved the goal of winning Jingzhou in one-third of the strategy that day, and it was time for the next step.

Looking at the crowd, he said: "The Chu thieves are powerful. I am alone in Jingzhou, and it is difficult to compete. I intend to unite with Jiangdong to fight against the Chu thieves. I don't know what you think?"

United with Jiangdong?

Kuai Liang and the others nodded after thinking for a moment. Although there is a gap between Jingzhou and Jiangdong, in the current situation, it is indeed the best choice to unite with Jiangdong.

"My lord's words are true. It just so happens that Lu Su, a well-known scholar from the east of the Yangtze River, is now in Jingzhou, which may facilitate this matter." Kuai Liang said with a smile.

"Oh?" Liu Bei nodded and said, "Since that's the case, I'd like to trouble Zirou to recommend you."

"Don't dare!" Kuai Liang responded with a smile.

Although some looked down on Liu Bei before, it is undeniable that Liu Bei has his own unique charm, and his ability is not bad. In just a few days, he suppressed the chaotic situation in Jingzhou. At least on the surface, everyone is sincere now. Cooperation.

Kuai Liang went to invite Lu Su, but saw the guards outside the gate came in, bowed to Liu Bei and said, "My lord, Mr. Ziyuan please see me."

"Ziyuan?" Liu Bei hurriedly said, "I will greet you in person!"

Immediately got up and went out of the house, and saw Xu You waiting outside the door.

"Mr. Ziyuan, long time no see!" Liu Bei smiled and cupped his fists when he saw Xu You.

After he came to Jingzhou, he visited Xu You several times, and the two sides talked very happily. When Liu Bei was looking for talented people in Xinye, he also thought about recruiting Xu You, but at that time he was lonely and weak, and after showing some intentions, Xu You You didn't respond, so he didn't mention any more.

We are all smart people, sometimes we don't need to speak too clearly.

But for Xu You, Liu Bei still misses it a bit.

"I haven't congratulated Duke Xuande for winning the position of Jingzhou." Seeing that Liu Bei is now the prefect of a state, Xu You still treats himself with the same enthusiasm as when he was in Xinye. I was annoyed at the veiled refusal at the beginning, and was moved in my heart, so I immediately saluted Liu Bei.

"What is Mr. Ziyuan doing?" Liu Bei hurriedly supported Xu You, and said with a wry smile, "You and I met each other when we were down and down, and we should have encouraged each other. Now, although Bei is lucky enough to be in charge of Jingzhou, he still treats you as before. You are so polite. It makes Bei feel uneasy.”

"Mr. Xuande is really a man of high righteousness." Xu You said with emotion, and entered the mansion with Liu Bei, and after the guests and hosts sat down, he said: "Come here today, there are indeed several talents who recommended you to Mr. Xuande."

Liu Bei's eyes lit up when he heard the words. He really lacks talent now, lacking his own talent. Looking at Xu You, he said happily, "Since it was recommended by Mr. Ziyuan, it must be an expert."

"It's not a high-level person. Duke Xuande should be no stranger to him. The others are juniors, and Lord Xuande should have heard of it." Xu You looked at Liu Bei and said.

"Could it be Wen Qian and the others?" Liu Bei looked at Xu You and asked in surprise.

Le Jin, Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, Cao Zhen, and Cao Zhi didn't go to see Yuan Shao again after Chaoge broke the city. At that time, Yuan Shao's defeat had already been decided. After discussing with everyone, they decided to go south to Jingzhou.

One is because Chu Nan’s next step must be Jingzhou, and also because Xu You is here. When the Cao family members were at their worst, it was Xu You who gave them a chance and spared no effort to help them. The first thing they thought of was Yuan Shao’s defeat. , I came to Jingzhou to look for Xu You.

It's just that at that time Jingzhou was basically dominated by the Jingxiang gentry, and they couldn't arrange it for themselves. Although the Jingzhou gentry was polite to Xu You, they thought too much when they wanted to arrange these northern defeated generals. I didn't see Zhuge Liang like the Jingzhou gentry Are people with a good relationship farming in Wollongong?What's more, if this group of outsiders were to be arranged, they would also be young generals in the army. Cao Zhang and others with little reputation would be fine, but Le Jin would be a general, how could he accept it?

So Xu You led the people to live in seclusion, preparing to help them become officials when the time comes.

And Liu Bei is at this time.

"Exactly." Seeing Liu Bei's expression, Xu You knew there was something to be said with a smile, "Mr. Xuande is willing to accept it!"

"Of course I will!" Liu Bei nodded happily, and said with emotion: "Wen Qian's name has been admired for a long time, and it is really a joy in life to be able to work together now. As for Brother Mengde's son... I will take care of it myself. I am very grateful to Mr. Ziyuan for helping me when I become an official, please accept my respect from Mr. Ziyuan!"

Then he bowed down.

Xu You hurriedly stopped him and said, "Mr. Xuande can't do it!"

After the two pushed and shoved for a while, Liu Bei just gave up bowing down, and Xu You said with some emotion: "Mr. Xuande's heart is rare in the world, and it should be done."

"Mr. has a great reputation, but now the Chu thieves are powerful. I wonder if Mr. can stay and help?" Liu Bei looked at Xu You earnestly.

"Dare to obey!"
