"This time, I have solved it for Uncle Huang, a total of five shadows. Uncle Huang, Ma Chao really attaches great importance to your every move. ”

This woman who is not very old and beautiful is faintly narrated, as if she is talking about an ordinary thing. Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang were shocked for a while, and the owner of the five thumbs didn't know what the fate would be.

However, it is only terrifying. Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang were absolutely impossible to be intimidated by these five fingers, let alone be frightened by Cao Jie's carefully prepared words, they just suddenly discovered Cao Jie's true temperament and felt her ruthlessness and forbearance.

"Outside the wine shop, these five shadows have been waiting at the exit of the wine shop road, although they are very hidden, but Jing Ancao and the shadow are old enemies, and it is not difficult to find them." Cao Jie glanced at Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang with a smile, and after looking at the two of them as if they were hairy in their hearts, he said again: "Fortunately, Uncle Huang had already arranged for Chen Zhi to be a stand-in in the mansion and came to this wine shop in advance. Otherwise, when the imperial uncle appears afterwards, the news of the imperial uncle's secret meeting with Zhang Song tonight will probably turn into a report and put it on Ma Chao's desk. ”

Speaking of this, Cao Jie shook his head and showed regret on his face: "It's a pity that this move is to drink to quench your thirst." We are safe tonight, but Ma Chao will know until dawn at the latest. The accidental death of the five Shadows will make him more interested in what happened tonight. If the Shadow wants to find out, he will definitely find out. In this way, it will be difficult for the imperial uncle to gain a foothold in Xiangyang......"

Both Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang knew that Cao Jie was by no means an exaggeration. Moreover, they also know that the shadow has always been Ma Chao's heart, and Ma Chao will definitely investigate it to the end! Cao Jie's words sounded good this time, but she deliberately killed those five shadows, which was actually a very subtle way to force Liu Bei to comply!

As a result, when Cao Jie's words were so clear, Liu Bei no longer put on the foolish appearance of a loyal man, he slowly stood up and stared at Cao Jie's eyes for a long time, until Cao Jie couldn't figure out what Liu Bei wanted and shifted his eyes, Liu Bei laughed loudly: "You are really Your Majesty's imperial concubine, this tone is really the same as our Son of Heaven." If I, Liu Bei, were an ordinary person, maybe I was really frightened by you, but I ...... it."

At this time, Liu Bei's eyes suddenly froze, and he said in a deep voice: "But a prince of the Han family who has a false name and is under house arrest still wants to override me and control me with 30,000 soldiers, which is ridiculous!" “

Cao Jie was provoked by Liu Bei's words, and her face turned red with anger, especially unexpectedly, she couldn't imagine why Liu Bei guessed her final intention at once, and didn't speculate about her father Cao Cao at all...... Could it be that he has really been changed his identity and heart by the title of 'imperial princess' in this life?

Cao Jie was stunned for a while, and he didn't sneer at Liu Bei. Liu Bei is right, once a Han family that at least had a prestige name has indeed been played worthless by her husband, like a stone in a latrine, smelly, hard and disliked. And until this time, he still had the heart to blossom in the backyard...... How can such a man not mind himself so much, and be stupid to the end?!

I don't know how long it took, Liu Bei stretched out his hand and pointed at Cao Jie a little embarrassed. Because he saw that Cao Jie's eyes were already full of tears, that kind of silent heartache tears, no matter who saw it, he couldn't help but feel heartache. Even though the two were still-for-tat before, Liu Bei was also strange and troubled at this time.

The Tatorikawa incident and the woman's tears, two things that should not have intersected at all, happened like this, leaving the entire cellar silent. Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, and Pang Tong glanced at each other, especially Pang Tong was even more ashamed at this time, in the face of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang's contemptuous and angry gazes, he was embarrassed to learn Ma Chao's movements, shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, indicating that he didn't know what was going on with this Cao Jie.

It's a pity that his appearance and figure are a little obscene, and this shrug is not as innocent as Ma Chao, but looks funny. Liu Bei's face changed several times, and he didn't know whether to be angry or laugh. And Zhuge Liang couldn't help but pick up a goose feather fan to cover his face, but the occasional slightly trembling shoulders also betrayed his expression at this time.

At this moment, Cao Jie is crying, Liu Bei is entangled, and Zhuge Liang is laughing. But Pang Tong looked at Zhuge Liang and was annoyed, and said loudly: "I have already guessed your plan, and Ma Chao will know it in three days at most." If Uncle Huang still has no good plan to enter Sichuan, this is probably not the time to be arrogant, right? ”

Liu Bei's face turned cold when he heard this, he looked at the Pang Tong in front of him, and a trace of suspicion rose in his eyes: this extremely smart guy, he is ostensibly a servant of the Han family, but no one will be stupid enough to take this identity seriously; At the same time, he also cooperated with Cao's Jing'an Cao, and Cao Cao seemed to praise him a lot, and wanted to extend the past several times; Also, his relationship with Ma Chao is also very strange, he seems to be hostile, but he gave advice to Ma Chao during the First World War in Huarong; In the end, he seemed to accept his kindness in its entirety, as if he was circling a fish in the whirlpool of various storms, and his political position was very vague.

At this time, he revealed that he seemed to help him send troops to Xichuan...... What does such a brilliant and ambiguous teenager want to do?

Liu Bei didn't dare to trust Pang Tong, he defected several times, and he had already seen through the entanglement of interests, and he didn't believe that anyone would help others for no reason. Therefore, he would rather believe Zhuge Liang, at least, although Zhuge Liang seems to be no less than this Pang Tong, but his expression is very clear: compared to Zhong Leyi, it is natural to assist the male lords of King Qi Huan and King Yan Zhao, create a hegemonic foundation, and leave a name for eternity!

However, when Liu Bei cast his inquiring eyes on Zhuge Liang, he saw that Zhuge Liang's expression also flashed a trace of hesitation. But then, Zhuge Liang nodded lightly, signaling that Liu Bei could trust Pang Tong.

In this way, even though Liu Bei still had doubts, he respectfully and gently opened his mouth to ask Pang Tong: "Does Mr. Pang have a clever plan?" ”

Pang Tong smiled slightly, glanced at Cao Jie, and motioned for Cao Jie to explain the plan, but Cao Jie was still immersed in his own pain and was not in the mood to speak. Pang Tong swept away his disdain, and then spoke: "Does Uncle Huang know about the fact that Qin put Wang Jian in the field and defiled himself to protect himself during the Warring States Period?" ”

Pang Tong told a story about Wang Qian, the general of Qin, who led an army of 600,000 to attack Chu, and the king of Qin sent it to Bashang. At the time of parting, Wang Jian made a request to the king of Qin for a field and a garden. King Qin was puzzled and asked, "The general has great achievements and is about to fight on the front line, are you still worried about the poverty of your family?" Wang Jian replied: "While the king can still use me, buy some family business for his children and grandchildren first." On the way, he sent people to invite Shantian five times. Someone reproached him for begging too much, and he said: "No, the king of Qin is suspicious, and now I am leading all the elite soldiers of the whole country to go on the expedition, and I don't ask for more rewards, do you make him doubt me?" Later, Wang Jian bought the field, and it became a classic example of the minister's self-defilement to protect himself.

Liu Bei couldn't release the scroll, so he naturally knew this allusion. But he didn't understand what Pang Tong meant, and asked suspiciously: "Back then, Wang Jian sent troops, but it was appointed by King Qin, and now he wants to break away from Ma Chao, even if he wants to defile himself, with only some good land and beautiful houses, presumably Ma Chao can still afford it......"

"Self-defilement is not just a good field and a beautiful house, Uncle Huang, do you think that Ma Chao chose you to enter Jingzhou at the beginning, what did he value in Uncle Huang?"

In the face of Pang Tong's reminder, even though Liu Bei was a hero, he was still a little confused. But Zhuge Liang behind him already understood Pang Tong's intentions, and immediately said: "No, if you use this plan, Jingzhou will have no chance with the lord at all!" ”

"Yizhou for Jingzhou, what else do you want?" Pang Tong was not to be outdone, and immediately replied: "In the face of Ma Chao's control of the military and politics at all levels in Jingzhou, even if you have monstrous means, how many things can you do?!" A Yizhou that may deserve its name in the future, and a Jingzhou that can only be controlled by the Ma family, these two very simple choices, you won't be unable to see through, right?! ”

"No, Jingzhou is the foundation of the world, and the lord must not give it up. If you lose Jingzhou and go to a corner of Yizhou, I am afraid that in the future, you will only have the power of self-preservation, and there will be no more momentum to send troops to the world! Zhuge Liang was rarely excited, his political plan did not allow Pang Tong to come and point fingers.

But at this time, Liu Bei on the side seemed to hear some signs, and said coldly and hardly: "How is Yizhou for Jingzhou?" ……”
