"The lord is awake." In the bedroom, the doctor's voice was heard.

Kuai Yue and Cai Mao walked in.

The rest of the officers are on standby.

In front of Liu Biao's bed, in addition to a doctor with gray sideburns, there are also two maid rings, as well as Liu Biao's stepwife, Mrs. Cai, and his second son Liu Cong. They all stared at the critically ill Liu Biao.

Kuai Yue saluted Mrs. Cai and asked the doctor, "How is the lord's condition?" ”

The doctor wanted to reply, but met Mrs. Cai's threatening gaze.

He was full of excitement and replied, "The lord is frightened and insane... ”

"What? Insane? Kuai Yue was taken aback and said in a trembling voice: "You mean, the lord doesn't know us now?" Don't know what you're talking about? Do what? Is that what it means? ”

"Yes, yes... No, it's not, it's .... The doctor trembled and spoke incoherently. I didn't dare to face the eyes of Mrs. Cai and Kuai Yue.

Mrs. Cai said: "Lord Kuai, the lord is indeed insane, if you have anything to say, don't disturb the lord's rest." ”

Kuai Yue is not a fool, how can he be sent away by Mrs. Cai's words. He glanced at the doctor and said, "Don't be afraid, tell me, what is the condition of the lord?" ”

"Lord... The lord sometimes goes insane, and sometimes... Sometimes it's normal. "There is room for the doctor's words.

"Mrs. Cai heard? The lord is normal! ”

Kuai Yue snorted coldly, saluted Liu Biao, and said: "Lord, you are only a small injury, and it will heal immediately, you can say a word, so that you can rest assured." ”

Liu Biao's face was pale and he wanted to speak, but he opened his mouth and couldn't say anything.

Kuai Yue looked anxious.

"Lord Kuai, please don't disturb the lord's rest." Mrs. Cai said.

"Your Cai family, are you so impatient?" Kuai Yue snorted coldly: "I, Kuai Yue, am not so easy to deceive. I have to hear the Lord speak with my own ears before I can leave. ”

"You...!"

"Kuai Yue, what do you mean?" Cai Mao didn't like it, so she stood up to help her sister speak.

"General Cai, what do I mean, don't you understand? I'll put the ugly words in front, it's best if the lord has nothing to do, once something happens, it should be Liu Qi's son to succeed to the throne, and it has nothing to do with your Cai family. ”

Cai Mao has a big temper, so she wants to get angry.

Mrs. Cai grabbed him: "Since Lord Kuai doesn't believe it, please ask again, can the lord still speak?" ”

"Lord, lord... You speak. Lord.... Kuai Yue stepped forward and shook Liu Biao's body vigorously. Liu Biao was conscious and wanted to speak, but when he opened his mouth, he just couldn't speak.

Eventually, he vomited a mouthful of blood and fainted again.

"Doctor, let's see how the lord is." Kuai Yue was startled, and muttered in his heart: "Could it be that Liu Biao is really not good?" ”

"Lord Kuai, please go out!"

Mrs. Cai and Cai Mao directly drove Kuai Yue out of the bedroom.

The next day at noon.

The lobby of the Assassin's Mansion.

Officials at all levels in Jingzhou, routine deliberations.

Mrs. Cai sat on the top seat, and next to her stood Liu Cong.

Mrs. Cai said: "The lord is critically ill, and the Cai family... That is, I am dealing with Jingzhou affairs. ”

"No."

The vast majority of officials saluted Cai.

In particular, the Jingzhou generals led by Cai Mao did not hesitate to express their support.

Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang are angry in their hearts, and they also know what the Cai brothers and sisters want to do, but they can't do anything. Because Liu Biao is not dead, according to the rules, whoever is appointed to govern will be in charge. Although Cai's is a woman, she is Liu Biao's wife, and she is Liu Cong's biological mother, and the military power of Jingzhou is in the hands of Cai Mao, in other words, it is also in the hands of Cai.

The hundreds of thousands of troops in Jingzhou are all decided by the Cai family, even if Liu Biao did not say that the Cai family would govern the government, during Liu Biao's critical illness, the Cai family was also qualified to sit in Liu Biao's position.

Thinking of taking into account the overall situation, the Jingzhou officials headed by Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang all saluted Cai's family.

"Okay, let's get down to business."

Cai Mao came out and said: "Lu Bu living in Xiangyang is a huge threat to us, I propose to block Xiangyang City and arrest Lu Bu and Li Yuanba." As long as these two people are in hand, the soldiers and horses of Xu Yang and the two states will have to be bogeyed. ”

"Uh-huh... This is good. Many generals agreed.

"The question is, can you catch it?" Zhizhong Deng Xi said: "If you can catch it, Yuan Shu will not be defeated." ”

Han Song, who was engaged in Zhonglang, said: "I think I should still befriend Lu Bu." After all, Lu Bu helped us repel Sun Ce, which shows that he himself does not want to be our enemy. Why bother ourselves? ”

"Everyone, don't forget yesterday!" Cai Mao reminded.

"If General Cai Mao hadn't attacked without permission yesterday, things wouldn't have turned out like this." Kuai Liang complained.

"You...!"

Cai Mao was annoyed and angry: "The military power is in my hands, I have the final say!" You are cowardly, you can hide first, and then talk to you when I catch Lu Bu. ”

Kuai Yue stood up, smiled, and said, "General Cai Mao, you have thought clearly, without the support of my Kuai family, the Jingzhou army will be cut by at least half." I advise you to put the overall situation first, consult with the ministers, and do not use military power to oppress others. If the result of the discussion is to besiege and kill Lu Bu, our Kuai family will definitely support it, and if you insist on going your own way, send a large army to dispatch. I stopped paying immediately. Hum... The grain in the granaries of Xiangyang is not enough to support the 350,000 army, right? ”

Hearing this, Cai Mao was stunned. More than half of Jingzhou's money, grain, and land are in the hands of the Kuai clan, and the Kuai clan does not supply grain, and hundreds of thousands of troops have to drink the northwest wind.

Mrs. Cai suppressed the anger in her heart and asked, "Lord Kuai, what do you think?" ”

"I can't talk about it, but I have a stupid suggestion."

Kuai Yue said: "I just received the news that Lu Bu and his party lived in Qunfang Building, and called thirty-four girls last night and tossed all night. Think about it, why does he have to live in a brothel when he has a post house? ”

Wen Ping said: "Needless to say, he is lustful." ”

"That's right, Lu Bu is lustful!" Kuai Yue said: "I am going to send him two peerless beauties to calm down yesterday's incident." After all, we were the first to strike, and we should give him an explanation. ”

"Didn't you hear what he said yesterday? He will have the lord himself make amends for him. Cai Mao said.

"General Cai, when Lu Bu first arrived in Xiangyang, he had no choice but to establish his authority in order to protect himself. Now that the lord is seriously ill, how can Lu Bu not know what to do and be aggressive? Besides, if he sees these two peerless beauties, he will have to be unable to walk. How can you have any energy to entangle with us? ”

"Peerless beauty? What did you say...? Mrs. Cai asked.

Kuai Yue smiled: "Madame should still remember that after Lu Bu eliminated Yuan, he vigorously purged the families in Yangzhou, and some of them fled to Jingzhou. The Lord has commanded me to help as I see fit. I arranged them in Xiangyang City. Among them, there is a family surnamed Qiao, Qiao Gong has two daughters, sixteen years old, not yet married, I have seen, there is the beauty of the country and the city, sinking fish and geese. If Lu Bu sees it, I guarantee that his legs will be weak. ”
