Chapter 213: Cao Cao's sinister intentions

The holy decree arrived, Liu Yong was not surprised, if Cao Cao did not give in at this moment, it means that he is just a reckless man, he has fallen into the quagmire of Hebei and can't get away for the time being, and there is more Western Ma Teng Han Sui pressed Chang'an, Sun Quan led Jiangdong alone, if Liu Yong in Jingzhou is provoked again, Cao Cao's dream of dominating the world is really just a dream.

It's just that what Liu Yong didn't expect was that Cao Cao actually let his subordinate Xun Yu come in person, which shows how much attention he attaches to it.

Xun Yu came, Liu Yong naturally gave enough face, there was no slightest hostility at all, but like a hero who greeted the triumph, Liu Yong sent Zhuge Liang out of the city ten miles to greet him, and he personally went to the city gate to greet him. Xun Yu looked up to Liu Yong more and more, and in his mind, Liu Yong was at a higher level.

In fact, there was a great disagreement about the matter of welcoming Xun Yu, and many people expressed dissatisfaction with such a grand welcome proposed by Liu Yong, and some even proposed to take Xun Yu in Xiangyang and kill him, so that Cao Cao would lose a loyal minister again after losing the general of the brothel.

In this regard, Liu Yong smiled faintly and did not blame, but just asked rhetorically: "Will you call the guests who come to your door to give you big gifts?" ”

With Zhuge Liang's eloquence and style of doing things, Xun Yu naturally admired him, and he was like a spring breeze all the way, but at the same time, he was secretly frightened: "No wonder Liu Yong created such a foundation at a young age, such as Zhuge Liang's talent is not below him at all, and even those who have to win can be taken under the account, and I heard that his brother Zhuge Jin, Chen Qun, Liu Ye, Pang Tong, and Ma Liang are all top figures among the civil ministers, it seems that Cao Jun's understanding of Liu Yong is still too superficial."

Seeing the sergeants who came to greet him, he was an elite soldier of the first class, definitely no worse than the most elite sergeant of the Cao army, the closer he got to Xiangyang all the way, the more frightened he was, here was completely a peaceful paradise, where there was still a scene of war everywhere, everyone lived and worked in peace and contentment, the pedestrians on the road were weaving, and the traffic in the fields was a thriving scene, if Liu Yong was just an ignorant boy who was so lucky that he burst out, he Xun Yu absolutely did not believe it.

Xiangyang is close at hand, the city gate is completely the same as on a normal day, the common people and traders receive and inspect in and out of the city gate, the only difference is that today only occupies half of the road, the other half, there are no sergeants to maintain order, but no people from the long snake-like queue to the other half of the free gallop up.

Xun Yu praised again, Liu Yong won the hearts of the people. When he approached the city gate, he saw a group of men and horses waiting at the city gate, and a handsome and heroic young man was guarding in the middle. Although he is not very old, there is a sharp and profound righteousness that ordinary people and even the children of wealthy families rarely have, Xun Yu immediately guessed that this person must be Liu Yong.

Of course, Liu Yong also did kung fu, and he deliberately wore the Zhan Lu sword, Xun Yu couldn't be amazed if he didn't want to.

"Let Liu Dudu wait for a long time, Yu is old and frail, and it is difficult to support the long journey, so he walks slowly, and I hope Liu Dudu will not blame!" Xun Yu is really a human spirit, and when he saw Liu Yong, he also said a lot of good things, which gave Liu Yong enough face.

As the saying goes, the sedan chair carries people, if you give me face, I will naturally give you face, Liu Yong immediately hugged his fists and said: "Lord Xun came from Xuchang all the way, Yong failed to welcome him, and I hope that my lord will forgive my sins." ”

Xun Yu immediately slandered in his heart: At this moment, in Jingzhou, who dares to say that you are guilty. But immediately clenched his fists and returned the salute, and even said politely!

And after the people who entered and exited the city gate next to them saw Liu Yong, they all greeted him, which made Liu Yongmin's longing image more than many times taller.

Xun Yu said: "The old man came to read the holy decree this time, he really went through hard work, and now when he sees Liu Dudu, he is exhausted and comfortable, Liu Dudu is really late to see each other." ”

"Divine decree? Lord Xun is here to read the holy decree? I don't know who read it? Liu Yong looked completely ignorant. The people were even more surprised, and directly stopped and watched from afar.

Xun Yu didn't want to pretend to be like this with Liu Yong, it seemed that Liu Yong deliberately wanted to make him announce the decree in many places at the city gate, so he gave Liu Yong a big roll of his eyes and preached loudly: "Jingzhou Liu Yong takes the decree!" ”

Liu Yong immediately knelt down after hearing this, and other civil and military officers also immediately knelt down, and the people saw Liu Yong kneel, and they also knelt down, and in an instant, a large number of people knelt inside and outside the city gate.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor said: Jingzhou Liu Yong's merits in governing Jingzhou are notorious, the place is peaceful, and the people support it.

After Xun Yu finished reading out, Liu Yong shouted Long live, and the civil and military forces were even more surprised, followed by shouting Long live, and then the people in the world, after a long time, the sound of "Long live" stopped.

With the canonization of the imperial court, Liu Yong really became the lord of Jingzhou, and also became the supreme ruler of the governor Jiangnan. Ordinary people are naturally happy that their lord has been enthroned by the imperial court, and they are as excited as if they were canonized, but Liu Yong, Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Jin, Pang Tong and others frowned slightly: Cao Cao's intentions are sinister.

But this is obviously not the time to be angry, and immediately happily welcomed Xun Yu into the state governor's mansion in the city to hold a feast and wash the dust for Xun Yu.

After the feast, after sending Xun Yu and his party to the post house to rest, everyone surrounded Liu Yong, and Zhuge Liang spoke directly: "Lord, this Cao Cao has sinister intentions, although he has sealed your Jingzhou Mu, but at the same time gave Liu Yong a position as the governor of Jiangnan, isn't this Jiangdong also under the command of the lord, this is to provoke us to start a war with Jiangdong, let me and other two sides consume each other, so that he can sit and reap the benefits!" ”

Pang Tong and others also spoke one after another. Liu Yong nodded: "Yes, Cao Cao is indeed sinister, and this is a conspiracy, there is no solution at all, but to see the trick first." Immediately ordered Gan Ning, Huo Jun, and Hua Xin, knowing that they would strengthen their precautions against Jiangdong, and quickly sent scouts to investigate Jiangdong's movements! ”

At the same time, Liu Yong secretly asked Liao Hua to send people to find out Jiangdong's reaction and actions to this matter.

Sure enough, three days later, news came from Jiangxia, and there were obviously more scouts and spies in Jiangdong, and then Liao Hua came to report again, Sun Quan, Zhou Yu, Zhang Zhao and others were very angry about this, claiming to send troops to the west to attack Jingzhou, proving that he Sun Quan was the person who was qualified to be the governor of Jiangnan. Although under the persuasion of Sun Shao and others, they were unable to send troops, but the land with Chaisang was significantly increased, and the ships to the east of Jingzhou, the common people and merchants also stepped up the search, and many people were arrested as spies.
