As long as you are not a fool, you all know that the decisive battle between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, if Yuan Shao wins, he will inevitably take advantage of the situation to take Cao Cao's territory; If Cao Cao wins, he will also take advantage of the situation to take Yuan Shao's territory. Regardless of which of them wins, the winner will surely dominate the seven states.

Mrs. Cai also has some vision, and after Zhuge Liang's dialing, she also discovered this.

Zhuge Liang continued: "After the north decides the overlord, it will inevitably point south, and Jingxiang will inevitably bear the brunt. ”

"And at that time, even if Liu Jingzhou was still alive, he was still dying, could he stop the power of the seven northern states?"

There is no need for Zhuge Liang to continue to point out, Mrs. Cai knows that only with the seven counties of Jingxiang, if she wants to hold the seven northern states, well, she may have the strength to fight, but it is difficult to win it. What's more, the husband is still dying, and his majesty is no longer what he used to be.

"If the young lord succeeds to the throne, will Prince Qi obey?"

"Do the Brothers of the Kuai Clan obey?"

"Does Jiangxia Huangzu know how to serve?"

"Will Wenpin, Huang Zhong and other ministries be served?"

Yes, these people will not accept it when the time comes. Wen Ping and Huang Zhong are still good at saying that whoever of the two sons is the lord of Jingzhou, they will be loyal to him. But Liu Qi, Huang Zu and the Kuai brothers, how could they always let Liu Cong be the lord of Jingzhou?

At that time, if a strong enemy from the north comes to attack, Jingxiang will be troubled internally and externally.

Mrs. Cai's IQ is not bad, and it will soon come to this point.

In that case, even if his son Liu Cong becomes the lord of Jingzhou, I am afraid that it will be short-lived.

……

Seeing Mrs. Cai's melancholy face, no longer talking and laughing just now, Zhuge Liang knew that tonight's flickering was almost done.

Of course, it can't be said that it's all a fool.

The situations analyzed by Zhuge Liang are the dilemmas that Jingzhou is about to face:

Liu Jingzhou is dying of old age, and it is difficult to say how many years he can live, and neither of the two sons can take on the heavy responsibility.

This is the actual situation, not a fool.

"Perhaps, my aunt will also feel that when the time comes, Gongzi Cong can still raise Jingzhou and surrender, and from then on he will be a marquis of peace."

"But auntie, don't forget, Gongzi Cong's bloodline, and you, auntie, are Gonggongzi's mother."

"Now is a world of great contention, and the northern overlord will inevitably and sooner or later usurp the Han Dynasty as emperor. Jingzhou vassals, everyone can surrender to the usurper, and even the uncle may coerce the aunt and son to surrender. ”

"However, Gongzi Cong is a descendant of the Han family, and after he usurped the emperor, how would he treat the royal blood of the previous dynasty?"

"Perhaps, there will be a reward for disobeying the order, but after ten or twenty years, it will still be difficult to escape a glass of poisoned wine."

This is not Zhuge Liang's alarmism.

The new dynasty treats the royal blood of the old dynasty, and it may be rewarded at the beginning, but in the end, it will be poisoned and white. In particular, four hundred years ago, when the Qin Dynasty collapsed, the descendants of Qin Shi Huang surrendered, and in the end, it was difficult to escape Xiang Yu's slaughter.

The royal blood of the old dynasty, whether in the new dynasty will be as Zhuge Liang said, will eventually be a glass of wine and white silk, Mrs. Cai does not know. However, as Liu Cong's mother, whenever there are such signs, Mrs. Cai will never allow it.

If it weren't for Zhuge Liang's alarmism, Mrs. Cai would really have the intention of surrendering if the situation was not right.

But now, if what Zhuge Liang said was true, wouldn't she have pushed her son into the fire pit with her own hands?

"So, according to Kong Ming's opinion, what is the way out for me in Jingzhou?" In the end, Mrs. Cai still stared at Zhuge Kongming.

Who is called, the legend of the Wolong and Phoenix Chicks has spread in Jingxiang?

……

Zhuge Liang suggested: "Ally with Uncle Liu Huang!" ”

Facing Mrs. Cai's scorching gaze, Zhuge Liang analyzed: "Among the princes of the clan today, Jingzhou does not need to be repeated. Liu Jingzhou is dying, and the two sons are difficult to take on big responsibilities, in the troubled times, Jingzhou will be coveted by strong enemies sooner or later. ”

"Xichuan Liu Jiyu, even Zhang Lu can't beat him, let alone the Zhongxing Han Dynasty."

"Only Uncle Liu Huang has the hope of reviving the Han family, and can follow the example of Guangwu Zhongxing."

"It is true that Uncle Liu Huang is now only half of Hanzhong, and there are only 20,000 soldiers and horses, and there is not enough food and grass. However, today's Uncle Liu Huang can sit on half of Hanzhong, and he may not be able to take the entire territory of Hanzhong in the future, and then go out of Guanzhong and sweep the world. ”

"It must be known that under the command of Uncle Liu Huang, the three fierce generals of Zhang and Zhao are invincible in the world. Coupled with my Zhuge Kongming and Pang Shiyuan, Uncle Liu Huang wants to revive the Han Dynasty, but it is only a little difficult, but it is not impossible. ”

"Now, Uncle Liu Huang is weak, if my aunt can prompt Liu Jingzhou to send charcoal in the snow, how can Uncle Liu Huang not remember this kindness."

"In other days, if someone covets Jingzhou, Uncle Liu Huang will definitely raise troops to help Jingzhou."

"Moreover, if Uncle Liu Huang really revives the Han family in the future, how can he lose a share of the glory and wealth of his aunt and Gongzi Cong?"

"Take another 10,000 steps back and say, if there is really a case in the future, it is better to merge under Uncle Liu Huang than to raise Jingzhou and surrender to others. You must know that only the Han clan will not kill the princes who are also Han clan relatives! ”

"Presumptuous!" Mrs. Cai didn't wait for Zhuge Liang to finish speaking, and shouted angrily: "This is thinking about my Jingzhou!" ”

Although she was angry, Mrs. Cai did not reprimand Zhuge Liang again.

After becoming Liu Jingzhou's wife, Mrs. Cai still knows a little about some royal secrets.

For example, Liu Jingsheng's branch was originally a lineage of King Lu Gong of the former Han Dynasty, but after the revival of Guangwu, Liu Jingsheng's branch was still prosperous and wealthy, and he was ranked as a marquis for many generations, why?

Isn't it still when Guangwu was in the middle of the rise, and their family quickly moved closer to Emperor Guangwu?

As a descendant of the Han Queen, born in troubled times, if you don't have the ability to rejuvenate the Han family, you are not allowed to take refuge in the princes of the clan who can rejuvenate the Han family. Just like Zhuge Kongming said, once the Han family is prosperous again, there will always be a glory and wealth.

At the very least, after the clan ascends to the throne, there will never be a glass of wine and white silk clan, right?

Therefore, although Mrs. Cai scolded Zhuge Kongming, she also knew that Zhuge Kongming's suggestion was not unreasonable.

It is better to surrender to outsiders than to relatives.

This is not Mrs. Cai's character, nor is it in her interests.

Of course, incorporated into Liu Bei?

This is just the way out of Jingzhou's next resort in the future.

Now, Jingzhou's strength is still quite strong, but Liu Bei is just getting started.

"No, let's first urge the husband to form an alliance with Liu Bei, support him with some grain and grass, and see which part he Liu Bei can go to."

"If Liu Bei can really revive the Han dynasty and incorporate Jingzhou into his banner, what does it matter?"

In the side hall, there was silence for a while, but Mrs. Cai was silent

The situation in Jingzhou, Mrs. Cai also knows, is indeed as Kong Ming said.

The husband is old, I don't know when it will collapse, when the time comes, there are strong enemies outside Jingzhou, there are people who do not do evil, internal and external troubles, their orphans and widows, they will definitely not be able to sit in Jingzhou.

Don't look at Cai Mao as her brother, when she can't do anything, I'm afraid that Cai Mao will take their mother and son as the step of advancement!

Rather than cheapening others at that time, the lives of their mother and son may not be guaranteed, it is better to support Liu Bei now.

If Liu Bei can really rejuvenate the Han family, there will be no lack of glory and wealth for their mother and son, right?

Take a step back and say, if you support Liu Bei, when there is really a foreign enemy in the future, you will be a powerful ally, isn't it?

……

After a while, at the beginning of the day, Mrs. Cai seemed to have finally figured it out, and said in a low tone: "I will persuade your uncle." ”

"Support Liu Bei's soldiers and horses, money and food, I dare not guarantee it. There should not be much of a problem in forming an alliance with Liu Bei and allowing Liu Bei to recruit displaced people, recruit soldiers, and buy grain and grass in Jingzhou. ”

"You go back and wait for the news first, and when your uncle loosens, I will pass on the message to you, and you will go to see you again."
