Chapter Ninety-Three: Jingzhou Liyan, Liu Biao's Difficult Choice!

"Your Majesty, please speak!"

Liu Biao didn't dare to slack off, he also wanted to hear that His Majesty came all the way from Xu Du to Xiangyang City, what was related to him.

"Before that, I want to ask my uncle a question."

Liu Xie leaned over to Liu Biao and asked solemnly: "If there is chaos today, the heroes rise together, and the princes regard the Son of Heaven as nothing, what do you think, uncle?" ”

Hearing this, Liu Biao was stunned, although he was a relative of the Han family and was doing things like a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, he still couldn't change his identity as a warlord.

Liu Biao frowned slightly, his face was cold, he didn't dare to look at Liu Xie, but a thought flashed in his mind.

Could it be that Your Majesty wants to take back Jingzhou from his own hands?

If Liu Biao still insists that he is a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, then Jingzhou will have to be handed over to His Majesty.

But since the abolition of Shi Limu, it has become a foregone conclusion that the state pastor dominates the land of a state.

At the beginning, the Jingzhou Shi clan was centrifuged, and the thieves swarmed, but it took him a lot of effort to recruit the Shi clan to quell the thieves.

Jingzhou has too much effort from him, and if he hands it over like this, he is unwilling.

"Uncle, don't be nervous."

Liu Xie smiled slightly, of course he knew that it was impossible for Liu Biao to hand over Jingzhou to himself.

Even if Liu Biao was willing, those scholars in Jingzhou were not willing.

Although Jingzhou is ruled by Liu Biao, the Cai family, the Kuai family, the Zhang family, and the Huang family, who hold military and political power, will not be happy.

The current situation in Jingzhou is actually a situation in which Liu Biao and the world are governed together.

Liu Biao was still silent, and Liu Xie continued: "Fang is a prince today, only you, uncle, and Liu Zhang of Yizhou are the relatives of the Han family, and my attitude towards the clan has always been different from other warlords. ”

"Your Majesty, the minister is by no means occupying Jingzhou with a bad plot, but the world is in chaos, and the minister has to protect the territory and the people."

Liu Biao's tone was very heavy, Liu Xie had no malice on the surface, but his heart was separated from his belly.

He already felt that the fifteen-year-old boy in front of him was actually a forbearant and sophisticated politician.

At this time, he must show loyalty, even if he has any ideas, no one will really want to bear the reputation of a traitor and thief.

"Of course."

Liu Xie's head, if he was not a traverser, of course he would not dare to fully believe Liu Biao.

But as a traverser, he knew that Liu Biao only wanted to stick to this one-third of an acre.

Sun Tzu has a cloud in the art of war, knowing himself and knowing the enemy, winning all battles.

Liu Xie didn't need to be tempted any longer, and continued: "Uncle, I came to Jingzhou alone, and I won't hide it with you, you should know that I sealed Liu Bei's official position after pacifying Xuzhou." ”

"Uncle Liu?"

Liu Biao looked at Liu Xie and said, "He seems to be doing the official position of Xuzhou Assassin. ”

"That's right, the most important reason why the Han Dynasty rose together is the policy of abolishing Shi Limu, of course I can't keep the official position of state pastor."

"Therefore, I named Liu Bei as the Xuzhou Mu, although he is the emperor of Zhongshan after King Jing, he is my imperial uncle, but there is one thing, he is different from your uncle."

When Liu Xie said this, Liu Biao asked, "Your Majesty, please speak." ”

The so-called Han clan relatives are nothing more than families that have branched out since the time of Gaozu Liu Bang, Liu Bei is after King Jing of Zhongshan, and Liu Biao is after Liu Yu, King of Lugong.

Both of them have one thing in common, their ancestors were both feudal kings of the "Western Han Dynasty" period, not descendants of Emperor Guangwu of the "Eastern Han Dynasty".

Since His Majesty is determined to abolish the post of state pastor, then Liu Bei can't be a state pastor, can he be a state pastor again?

"Because you are now the ruler of Jingzhou."

Liu Xie's tone suddenly became solemn.

The temperature in winter is a little cold, even if the sun is shining today, it is still cold, but Liu Biao's forehead has beads of sweat.

He was now and more unable to guess what His Majesty meant.

What is he trying to do with all this?

"Uncle, I want to negotiate a condition with you."

Liu Xie said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, please speak."

Liu Biao's eyes became keen, and after layers of peeling off the cocoon, His Majesty's intention finally emerged.

"Today's Han is surrounded by all kinds of powerful enemies, I need my uncle's strength, as long as my uncle is willing to contribute to me, I guarantee that my uncle's bloodline will always be the lord of Jingxiang."

After Liu Xie's words were finished, it was as if a hammer had been hammered down and the dust had been knocked off, and Liu Biao also came to his senses.

This means, make yourself the uncrowned king of Jingzhou!

If the Han family can be unified, and His Majesty does not repeat, this is indeed a good way.

If the Han family can't be unified, as a clan, he can also justifiably divide Jingzhou.

But at what cost?

Liu Biao asked, "So, what about the conditions?" ”

"First, the Jingzhou family is big, and my uncle must cooperate with me to cut off these families."

"I don't need to go into detail about this, my uncle has not yet been willing to establish a successor, isn't it because he is restrained by the family?"

Liu Xie said with a smile.

"Cutting off the ...... of the family"

Liu Biao sighed and said, "This matter is not easy, but if Your Majesty joins forces with me, I think it shouldn't be difficult." ”

Among the Jingzhou families, the strongest is the Cai family, when Liu Biao married the Cai family, he also wanted to tie up with the Cai family through marriage.

The Cai family wanted to make Liu Cong, the son born to Mrs. Cai, as his son-in-law, which gave Liu Biao a headache.

And as long as the family is divided, he will be the real lord of Jingzhou.

"What about the second one?"

Liu Biao asked again.

"The second is that the uncle must appoint his eldest son Liu Qi as his heir."

Liu Xie said solemnly.

"This!"

Liu Biao was shocked, he couldn't think of why His Majesty did this, but he knew the consequences of doing so.

"Your Majesty, the minister doesn't say much prevarication, since Your Majesty has promised that the minister will always be the lord of Jingxiang, then you really need to establish a successor."

"According to the etiquette law, I should indeed set up my eldest son Liu Qi, but the mother family of my second son Liu Cong is also the Cai family, and holds the military and political power in Jingzhou, and even the Kuai family's leapfrog and Kuailiang brothers also support the establishment of Liu Cong as their heir."

"If I rashly appoint Liu Qi as my heir, I am afraid that I will attract a counterattack from the Cai family."

Liu Biao was shocked into a cold sweat, the reason why the situation in Jingzhou is stable now is because there is no heir.

But once he is established, Jingzhou will never be calm again, and he can't think of what the Cai family will do.

Perhaps, when he became a stumbling block for them, his lord also became a thorn in their side.

"What I want is the counterattack of the Cai family, otherwise, how can I cut off the family?"

"If it is not broken and then established, the land of Jingzhou, whether it is for me or for my uncle, will be a drag!"

Liu Xie's voice, like a Hong Zhong, has been echoing in Liu Biao's ears.

Liu Biao sat on the chair and was silent for a long time.

Liu Xie poured him a cup of hot tea, but when the tea was cold, Liu Biao refused to speak.

What he wants is stability in Jingzhou, and the current situation is actually very good for him.

But the appearance of Liu Xie forced him to make a choice.

If you follow Liu Xie's plan, it may be the best choice for the continuation of your own lineage.

But if you don't, then you're on the opposite side of Your Majesty.

Liu Biao hesitated and wandered, never able to make a decision.

"It's already noon, hasn't my uncle thought it through?"

Liu Xie looked at the weather outside the window, a smile rose on the corner of his mouth, and said: "Since my uncle can't make a choice, then I can only make a choice for my uncle myself." ”
