Yinhou of the Three Kingdoms

When Cai Mao came to the place where Liu Biao was staying, he saw that the two brothers Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue had already stood respectfully on the left side of Liu Biao's bed, and Liu Xian and Liu Biao's old department had already arrived.

"The last general pays his respects to the lord!"

Cai Mao saluted respectfully, while Liu Biao on the bed closed his eyes and nodded slightly.

About a while later, after General Wenpin stepped into the Guanwei Hall and greeted Liu Biao, Liu Biao opened his eyes, and his tense face relaxed a little.

"The lonely king has been in charge of Jingzhou for thirteen years. The Yellow Turban disrupted the country, Dong Zhuo's misfortune, and the world was in turmoil. Fortunately, thanks to the spirit of the ancestors, Jingzhou survived the crisis, and it is now prosperous.

However, the lonely king looked up at the astronomy and looked down at the hearts of the people. Knowing that the number of longevity is over, he may be powerless to benefit the people of Jingzhou.

Therefore, Liu Zong, the dog son, not only has the achievements of martial arts, but also has the traces of brilliance and virtue. The great responsibility of Jingzhou can be entrusted to him.

In the way of the husband's way, the world is the public, and the virtuous and capable are selected. Therefore, Tang Yao was not private to Juezi, but his fame spread to infinity.

Although the lonely king is envious of Tang Yao, but as a descendant of the great ancestor, he should follow the legacy of the great ancestor. Now Liu Zong is the son of the great Chu. After a hundred years of the lonely king, the princes can assist the son to help Jingzhou!Liu Biao, King of Great Chu, ordered me here, and all the lords obeyed the imperial edict! "

Liu Biao endured the pain in his viscera and paused five or six times in an edict before he finished speaking without any mistakes.

"I would like to obey the edict, and I am willing to assist the son of the world to protect the king's foundation, help Jingzhou, and rule the world!"

Cai Mao's face was full of joy, he jumped out first to pay homage to Liu Biao, and then followed the generals to pay homage to the eldest son Liu Zong. "The last general is waiting to meet His Royal Highness!" Liu Zong couldn't see any joy on his face, but Liu Qi beside him had a pale face, and quietly lowered his head, but his heart was terrified. Once his father passed away, Cai Hao and others would definitely take power. And because of the discord with Cai Mao and others, by that time, I would

Only to follow the father and go west!

"Your Majesty... have seen His Royal Highness!"

Kuai Liang and the others looked at each other, showing a helpless expression. The lord chose Cai Mao after all, so Jingzhou would not be safe.

Ugh……

There was a long sigh in his heart, but Liu Biao naturally didn't know it.

"Cough cough...cough cough...General Cai, you are the in-law of the lonely king. If there is anything wrong with Zong'er in the future, I still hope you...cough cough...I hope you can correct me..."

Liu Biao supported the bed with one hand and covered his mouth with the other, his viscera ached from the violent coughing.

"The last general dare not! The last general will die after bowing down!"

Cai Mao impassionedly swears to the sky, expressing his loyalty to Liu Zong.

"Okay! Okay... let's all go down..." Liu Biao nodded again and again, waved his hands in relief and commanded, panting and hanging his head.

"Sir, please retire!"

Cai Mao and Kuai Liang looked at each other, one of them was smiling, the other was calm and worried.

But there was one person who, until everyone left the Guanwei Hall, still stood there like a mountain, waiting respectfully for Liu Biao.

"Zhongye, Lonely King...cough cough...Lonely King has known you for ten years, right?"

"It's been 11 years since I returned to my lord! I was fortunate enough to be promoted by my lord back then, so I can have today's appointment. I will treat my lord with all my heart, and repay my kindness with all my loyalty!"

Wenpin obviously knew what Liu Biao was thinking and said directly.

"Zhong Ye, after the lonely king leaves, Cai Mao and others may have different ideas. The lonely king entrusts you with Zong'er's safety!"

Liu Biaoyu looked down at Wenpin earnestly, his tone full of hope.

"The end will be ordered!"

Wenpin clasped his fists in salute.

"well……"

Panting, Liu Biao gave Wen Pin a veiled look.

……

On an ancient road, Liu Bei led his army up the Shuoshui River in Fuling, heading back to Xiamo, under the jurisdiction of Wuling County.

The Lu horse that Liu Bei was riding asked Zhuge Liang beside him, "Military Master, do you think Sun Ce will agree to our request?"

Zhuge Liang shook the goose feather fan leisurely and said: "No!"

"Uh?"

Liu Bei was taken aback when he heard this, but Zhuge Liang smiled.

"However, Yuan Zhi will not return empty-handed when he goes this time. My lord, just wait for the good news!"

"That's it! We can only hope that Xu Yuanzhi can persuade Sun Ce to send troops together. At that time, I will occupy Nanjun, Dongwu will occupy Jiangxia County, and as for the four southern counties of Jingzhou, they will be divided equally!"

Liu Bei's ambitions are not great. The seven counties of Jingzhou, except for the northernmost Nanyang County, is close to Yuzhou. There is Wancheng and Zhangxiu occupying it. He doesn't want to provoke him, but he wants to divide the other six counties equally with Soochow.

Moreover, Liu Bei still had a hidden reason that he didn't say, but Zhuge Liang understood that Nanyang County was a transportation fortress for going south and north. Cao Cao had long regarded Nanyang County as his forbidden meat, so how could he allow others to get involved?

"Hehe...My lord, don't worry..." Zhuge Liang said lightly, but a sense of pride rose in his heart. At this golden opportunity, how could he let go of the opportunity of the rise of Tenglong?

……

Soochow.

Xu Shu looked at the vast river, looked at the handsome and heroic figure in front of him, but suddenly thought of Ning Rong.

Ugh!

Naturally, if I hadn't left Xudu back then, I'm afraid I would have the capital to compete with this person now, but... even if I, Xu Yuanzhi, didn't have a single soldier, how could I be cowardly.

"My lord, Xu Shu, Xu Yuanzhi, have met Governor Zhou!"

That's right, after Soochow received Liu Bei's letter of credence this time, it was Zhou Yu who came to greet Xu Shu.

It turned out that Sun Ce wanted to send a random general to go there, but Zhou Yu insisted, so Sun Ce would naturally not save him.

"Brother Yuanzhi is a chivalrous man, loyal to the liver and courageous, he abandoned the sword and followed the literature, and learned his own strategy. Even Mr. Shui Jing praised your strategy of peace and stability, but Yu did not expect that the envoy of the King of Shu was you. !"

Zhou Yu held Xu Shu's hand enthusiastically. He had heard that Xu Shu had not joined Liu Ying. If such a man with both civil and military skills could join them in Soochow, it would be like a tiger with wings added!

"Captain Zhou..."

"Brother Yuanzhi, why do you need to be polite? If you don't give up, just call Gongjin by name!"

"Then... I will be reckless, brother Gongjin..."

Looking into Zhou Yu's serious eyes, Xu Shu was no longer disrespectful to Zhou Yu's enthusiasm.

"Let's go! King Wu heard that brother Yuanzhi is coming, and he has already greeted him at Wufenglou!"
