Chapter 25: The First Return to Xiangyang

On the fifth day of capturing Jiangling, Liu Cong was finally about to leave for Xiangyang, after all, he had been out for long enough this trip, and he had killed Taishou Wu Ju, so he had to face Liu Mianchen in person.

The night before leaving, Liu Cong didn't sleep well, since he crossed over, he collected and leveled Wu Ju, and most people didn't believe that this was done by a seemingly weak second son. Of course, Gan Ning, Wei Yan and other generals are still fooled, after all, they haven't had much contact before, and Gan Ning and others can think that the second son is deliberately low-key, or folk rumors slander the second son.

Now when I go back to Xiangyang to report, I need to meet Liu Biao, Cai's family, and my father-in-law, Cai Mao, etc., these people are my closest relatives, and they usually know everything about their every move, and I don't know how to explain it to them when I do such a thing this time. In order to save some tongue, Liu Cong decided to take Zhang Bo, Liu Ba and Huang Quan back to Xiangyang.

Liu Biao asked, with these three people testifying, and at the same time he didn't want Liu Biao to take back his military power, so he didn't bring any of the generals, but only instructed them to train strictly and strengthen the garrison of Jiangling City.

Xiangyang had already received Liu Cong's letter, Liu Biao wanted to send Wen Ping to lead the army to Jiangling, but before he set off, Liu Cong's good news arrived, so he had to wait for Liu Cong to return to Xiangyang to report.

Liu Cong and his entourage set off early in the morning, rested for a while, let the horse breathe, and came to the outside of Xiangyang City about five hours later. The first time he saw the ancient local capital, Liu Cong still sighed at Liu Biao's talent, this Xiangyang City is much more prosperous than Jiangling City just by looking at the city wall.

Maybe this is the international metropolis of the Three Kingdoms era, the city is much more prosperous than Jiangling on the streets, and it is incomparable to Nayiling and Zigui County. However, Liu Cong is not in the mood to appreciate it for the time being, how to face the 'father' and 'wife' makes him a headache, with the memory left by the second son, plus Huang Quan leading the way, he finally found the general's mansion smoothly.

Liu Cong saw a group of people standing outside the gate of the general's mansion from a long distance on the horse, and when he got closer, he found that there were mostly women. Standing at the foot of the steps, Liu Cong looked up, there are really many beauties in the General's Mansion, and the feelings of this Liu Biao ......

No, this seems to be the stepmother Cai, as well as his own wife Cai Lin and his stepmother Cai's sister Liu Wen...... Thou shalt not blaspheme, thou shalt not blaspheme.

"Second brother, you're back, my mother and sister-in-law and I are waiting for you at this gate early in the morning." A little Lori, who was less than ten years old, saw Liu Cong dismounting, so she hurriedly ran over and took Liu Cong's hand and walked up the steps.

"Oh, it's hard Wen'er, the child Liu Cong has seen Erniang." Liu Cong hurriedly followed up the steps and saluted a noblewoman in the crowd who was about thirty-four or five years old.

"Cong'er, let Erniang take a look, are you okay?" The noble lady stretched out her hand and pulled Liu Cong, looked up and down, and found nothing serious, so she put Liu Cong's hand down, "Cong'er, Lin'er hasn't slept well all night these days when you go on the expedition, just come back." ”

"With Lao Lin'er to worry about, isn't Liu Cong back intact?" Liu Cong smiled at the seventeen or eighteen-year-old woman beside Cai's side.

This woman is Liu Cong's wife Cai Lin, when she heard Liu Cong say this, her face was full of surprise at first, and then she smiled: "I've seen my husband, my husband is tired from the journey, hurry into the house to rest." ”

"Okay, Huang Quan, you can arrange accommodation for the two adults first, and we will go to see the general together tomorrow."

"Haole", finally returned to Xiangyang safely, Huang Quan was also relieved, and after saluting the female dependents, he retreated to the side to greet Zhang Bo, Liu Ba and others.

Seeing that the master and servant had changed, Cai Shi was stunned for a moment, and then laughed again: "Cong'er, your father has been nagging you a lot these days. Liu An went to tell the master that the second son was back. ”

"Yes, ma'am." A middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper came out.

The next moment, Liu Cong took the hands of Cai Lin and Liu Wen and followed Cai to the back room, Cai Lin's face was slightly red at this moment, and her heart was even more fluttering, Cai saw that Liu Cong was so affectionate with her niece and didn't react, but then she was happy in her heart, and said that Xiao Biesheng was newly married, and it seemed that this was the case.

In fact, Liu Cong at this moment is completely from the afterlife, and it is normal for this little sister to be intimate with herself, and this little couple is even better. Liu Cong didn't want to show any flaws so quickly, and he never thought that the more he was like this, the farther away he would be from the former second son.

Everyone didn't walk a few steps, but they saw a charming woman coming in front of them: "Oh, second son, are you back......" The voice dragged on, with a bit of sneer, Liu Cong frowned, could this one come from Qinglou?

As soon as this woman appeared, Cai's face sank with a smile, and his eyes fell on Liu Cong, Liu Cong was a little inexplicable, so he looked at Cai Lin and found that Cai Lin's previous shyness was gone all of a sudden, and he was looking at himself with a straight face. Liu Cong thought to himself, what's going on? So he asked Liu Wen for help.

"Second brother, your sweetheart baby is here!" Little Lori doesn't seem to be happy either.

But as soon as Liu Wen said this, Liu Cong finally understood eight or nine points, and tried to search for the remaining memories of the second son, Jiang Li, oh, the maid of the second son is really from the Qinglou, damn, this second son has a young and beautiful girl like Cai Lin, but she loves this maid from the Qinglou very much, and the taste is really heavy! No wonder Cai's mother and daughter changed color at the same time when they saw this person, dare to love this Liu Cong is such a person?

Liu Cong was thinking about how to deal with this guy, Jiang Li came to Liu Cong's side like a gust of wind, Mrs. Cai in front of her had already made way of the way, and Cai Lin was about to let go of Liu Cong's hand to make way for Jiang Li.

Liu Cong saw that it was wrong, so he hurriedly took Cai Lin's hand and held it hard, and then smiled: "That Jiang Li, I want to visit my father first, I will talk about it later, and I will talk about it later......"

"Second son!" Jiang Li was stunned on the spot, what happened to the second son today?

Cai Lin was also stunned, her husband had changed her previous indifference to herself since she got off the horse, and originally thought that Liu Cong was acting in front of Mrs. Cai, but when she saw Jiang Li appear, Cai Lin's short-term joy disappeared, thinking that she was going to be pestered by this goblin again, and she was alone in the empty room, and she couldn't help but be lonely and angry in her heart.

Even Mrs. Cai, who was walking in the front and didn't plan to take care of this child's affairs, stopped at this moment and looked at Liu Cong curiously.

"Second brother, sister-in-law, let's go, my father is waiting for you!" At the critical moment, Xiao Lori glanced at Cai Lin, and the two pulled Liu Cong left and right to continue walking. Only Jiang Li was left alone.

In the living room of the General's Mansion, Liu Biao, Cai Mao, and Zhang Yun were waiting for Liu Cong, Cai Mao was not only Liu Biao's brother-in-law but also his father-in-law, the father-in-law of the second son, Liu Cong, had served as the Taishou of Nanjun, Jiangxia and other places, and was now the military division of the Zhennan General's Mansion, and was the number one real power person in Jingzhou except for Liu Biao. And Zhang Yun is the son of Liu's cousin's sister, the nephew of the general, and one of the core figures in Jingzhou. Knowing that Liu Cong would return to Xiangyang today, the three of them got together early and prepared to teach this troublemaker. Of course, the mentality of the three is not exactly the same.

Liu Cong soon came to the living room under the pull of two beautiful girls, which was Liu Cong's real meeting of his "father" Liu Biao. I saw a middle-aged and elderly man with a majestic figure standing in the middle of the living room, Liu Congchu estimated that it was nearly one meter nine, but his spirit was a little poor, it was estimated that it was due to age, Liu Biao is sixty-three years old this year, and he is considered to be old in this era. Presumably he was also a handsome guy when he was young. can be regarded as not insulting Jiangxia Bajun's name.

This is the general of Zhennan, the lord of Jingzhou. But I think of Chen Shou's sentence "The outside is wide and the inside is taboo, it is indecisive, it is talented but cannot be used, it is good but cannot be accepted, it is abolished and the heirs are revered, and the society is overturned, which is not unfortunate." "It's a pity, it's a pity, if Liu Biao can really be meritocracy and govern the world, I'm afraid that the territory at this moment will not be less than Cao Cao, right? It will not be that Cao Cao's southern expedition will be scared to death, and Jingzhou will be divided into three.

If he is persuaded to fight hard and try to unify China, he will be refuted and suspicious?

Liu Cong was trying to take a good look at Liu Biao, but Liu Biao couldn't help it, Liu Cong was his own son, how could this kid look at himself like a stranger when he entered the door. Liu Biao got up and pointed at Liu Cong and asked, "Son, are you guilty?"

"Child Liu Cong is guilty!" Liu Cong had already prepared in his heart to kill a county guard, if Liu Biao didn't pay attention to it, then he wouldn't be the famous Liu Biao in the land of Jingchu.
