"Isn't the gentleman gone, why did he come back again?"

Cai Mao opened her mouth and asked, a few days ago, Guo Jia had secretly come to Jingzhou to discuss cooperation with Cai Mao.

The matter of cooperation is to let Jingzhou and Cao Cao unite the front, and the two are each other's horns, waiting to see the general trend of the world.

At first, Cai Mao wanted to refuse, but Cao Cao's conditions were too generous.

As long as the Cai family is willing to cooperate, then Cao Cao is willing to let Jingzhou's soldiers and horses enter and leave Yanzhou at will.

Although Jingzhou is the thoroughfare of the world, but the west is the land of Shu, and the difficulty of the Shu road is difficult to go to the blue sky.

In the east, Yuan Shu is not able to compete with it at all, and in the north is Guanzhong and Sili, when Li Dao entered the lord in the past, he could not be conscripted, but now in the hands of the Son of Heaven, it is impossible to obtain.

If you can freely enter and exit Yanzhou, then you can unite with Cao Cao and compete with Yuan Shao in Hebei, and for Yuan Shu, you can also attack from both sides, rather than sending troops from Xiakou alone.

Liu Biao did not have the ambition to dominate the world before, because the strong enemies around him were too strong, and the geographical conditions of Yanzhou completely gave Jingzhou room for expansion.

And what Cai Mao needs to do is to support Liu Cong as his son-in-law and fully support Cao Cao, including manpower, troops, and material resources.

This was originally a cooperation that was beneficial to both parties, but with Liu Biao making Liu Qi his son-in-law, everything changed.

This is also the reason why Guo Jia returned halfway.

"Now that Liu Jingzhou's eldest son Liu Qi is his son-in-law, what do you think of it?"

Guo Jia asked, he had already learned from Mrs. Cai that the reason why Liu Biao was established was because His Majesty was involved.

It's just that no one would have imagined that His Majesty would come to Jingzhou and suddenly come to such a hand, which completely disrupted Guo Jia's layout.

His purpose was to help Cao Cao obtain the nine counties of Jingxiang, and the first step was to help Cai Mao's brothers win the heir.

If Liu Biao can be eliminated at that time, then Jingzhou will inevitably be chaotic, and Cao Cao will be able to fish in troubled waters at that time.

But now, the matter of seizing the heir has completely failed, which means that the Cai family can become an abandoned son for Cao Cao.

But Guo Jia still wants to take a chance.

"Now the documents for the establishment of the heir have just been issued, and the major families in Jingzhou are currently on our side."

"It's just that after a long time, they will still stand on Liu Qi's side."

Cai Mao said in a deep voice, now they have to do something to turn the situation around.

When Liu Biao became a successor, it also meant that the Cai family had been abandoned, and if Liu Qi was allowed to succeed to the throne, then the Cai family would definitely not have a foothold.

"I suggest sending someone to kill Liu Qi directly to eliminate the scourge!"

Mrs. Cai said fiercely, this is also the strategy that Lu Lingqi gave her before.

"As long as Liu Qi dies, then Liu Biao can't even if he doesn't want to make Cong'er his son-in-law."

Cai Mao agreed.

However, Guo Jia still raised his eyebrows and refused to speak.

"Mr. Guo, you are Cao Cao's think tank, what do you think about this?"

Cai Mao asked.

"Killing Liu Qi is intentional? Now Liu Biao has appointed Liu Qi as his son-in-law, and he doesn't know what unsavory secrets he has with His Majesty behind his back. ”

"According to my plan, it's better to kill Liu Biao directly!"

Guo Jia's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness.

"What!"

Brother Cai Mao was shocked, they didn't expect Guo Jia to be so ruthless, and they didn't think of this way.

Mrs. Cai is Liu Biao's wife and is his pillow person, if she is allowed to act, it is indeed feasible.

But in this way, wouldn't the Cai family become traitors to the master?

Now the major families in Jingzhou, although they all look forward to the Cai family, it is all because Mrs. Cai gave birth to two sons to Liu Biao, with the influence of the Cai family and Liu Biao's indecisive character, Liu Cong may be able to become a son-in-law in the future.

But this does not mean that they support the Cai family's rebellion.

"If Liu Qi can be killed, Liu Biao can't be killed?"

Guo Jia looked at them, "If you don't want to start, I can do it for you, as soon as Liu Biao dies, isn't it up to you to decide Jingzhou?" ”

"It's still too risky."

Cai Mao shook his head violently, in this way, wouldn't there be a handle in Guo Jia's hands, even if he dominates Jingzhou in the future, he will have to be led by Guo Jia's nose.

Moreover, those scholars in Jingzhou can be loyal to Liu Cong, but they will never be loyal to the Cai family.

"Let's try to assassinate Liu Qi first."

Mrs. Cai and her brother have almost the same idea.

"So be it."

Guo Jia said slowly, his current mind is not entirely on the matter of establishing a successor.

The Cai brothers and sisters don't have the courage, so why should they persuade more?

It's the Son of Heaven, who came to Jingzhou secretly and didn't bring any people with him, didn't he put himself in danger?

Guo Jia was very clear about the distribution of Liu Xie's forces, and the army was mainly concentrated in Chang'an and Xudu, and a small amount in Xuzhou.

If something happens to him in Jingzhou, who can save him?

"Hehe......"

Thinking of this, the corners of Guo Jia's mouth raised a sneer.

……

In the evening, in the inn.

After two days of calmness, Liu Biao finally accepted the fact that he had made Liu Qi his son-in-law.

He can't help it if he doesn't accept it, he doesn't want to go against His Majesty, and the document for the establishment of the heir has already been sent.

The whole of Jingzhou knew about the establishment of the heir.

After staying in the inn for two days, Liu Biao didn't know the situation in the outside world, but he had an extremely bad premonition in his heart.

The Cai family will definitely make any moves to oppose this matter.

"Uncle has worked hard, later, you can go back."

"It's just that it's best for my uncle to live in seclusion during this time."

Liu Xie came to Liu Biao's room and said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, I have done everything you asked me to do, and I hope Your Majesty will also keep his promise."

At this point, Liu Biao has no way out, since His Majesty has promised that he will always be the lord of Jingzhou, he also hopes that His Majesty will keep his promise.

The death of a cunning rabbit and the cooking of lackeys are countless in history, and Liu Biao is also worried about this.

"Put it down, the world of our Liu family is naturally guarded by the people of the Liu family."

Liu Xie didn't think about returning, as long as Liu Biao was obedient, then Jingzhou was in his hands, and it was not much different from being in his own hands.

Moreover, Liu Biao and Liu Xie are both short-lived ghosts, even if Jingzhou is given to them, what will they take to Yongzhen Jingxiang?

"Knock knock."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Liu Xie went to open the door, and there was a young man of the same age as himself, and he looked very anxious.

After seeing Liu Biao, he knelt down directly, "Father, did you really make me my son-in-law?" ”

The person who came was Liu Biao's eldest son Liu Qi.

Why did he find this place, he must have his own means.

But when he was made a son-in-law, there was no expression of joy on his face, but it was full of worry.

"That's right, you are also sixteen years old, and according to the etiquette, you should also become the eldest son."

Liu Biao nodded, pointed at Liu Xie and said, "This is today, why don't you go over to see it?" It was Your Majesty who recommended you to become the heir of Jingzhou? ”

"Your Majesty?"

Liu Qi looked at Liu Xie, his mind was a little dazed, but he still went over to salute.

"Qi'er, it's not too early, you can go back and rest, and help your father deal with Jingzhou's affairs in the future."

"Your Majesty, the minister will go back first."

After Liu Biao finished speaking, he left the inn, and next, he knew that he would have to face the counterattack of the Cai brothers and sisters, so he had to prepare early.

However, Liu Qi had no intention of leaving.

"Do you have anything else?"

Liu Xie looked at him.

"Your Majesty, please help me!"

Liu Xie immediately knelt on the ground and said with tears in his eyes: "The matter of establishing a successor is a way to take trouble for me." ”
