Cai Mao sent a few letters in a row, and then breathed a sigh of relief, although he didn't sleep last night, he was still in good spirits.

"Let's go, go to Kuai's house." Cai Mao stood up and said to the entourage beside him: "By the way, go and prepare a sacrifice again, this Kuai Liang is dead, and our Cai family can't be without a little preparation." ”

Cai Mao is going to see Liu Biao, but he still has to respect the Kuai family, at least the sacrifice must be sent.

"At the end, I will meet with the Governor of the State."

"Here, what did Ye Chen say?" Liu Biao said in a calm tone.

"Ye Chen wants compensation for thirty carts of treasures." Cai Mao said in a deep voice.

"What! He's crazy. Liu Biao, who was originally calm, jumped up when he heard it.

"Lord Zhou Mu, this Ye Chen just took the opportunity to blackmail, and said that he was seriously injured and almost lost his life, and if he didn't give him, he wouldn't retreat, but he still gave the last general a little face, and gave five carts of treasure." Cai Mao deliberately exaggerated.

Ye Chen was injured that day, and half of his clothes were stained red with blood, which looked very scary indeed.

Liu Biao hadn't realized Ye Chen's intentions yet, he tried hard to take a few deep breaths to calm down his emotions.

"Maybe this Ye Chen is just angry for a while, you go to negotiate again immediately, be sure to make him retreat, and ask him to leave the city immediately." Liu Biao lamented in his heart, his state pastoral mansion was burned, and he didn't know if there was any money to build it, and as soon as Ye Chen opened his mouth, it was the money for thirty carts.

"Yes, Lord Zhou Mu, the last general will definitely let Ye Chen withdraw from Xiangyang City." Cai Mao assured.

So Cai Mao went out again, he didn't go to see Ye Chen, but just sent his men to meet Guo Jia, ask for opinions, and communicate the meaning of both parties.

Guo Jia received the news and generously lowered five carts of treasure, but he demanded that they must get the treasure before they were willing to leave the city.

"Lord Zhou Mu, although this Ye Chen is loose, the asking price is still too high, and the treasures of the twenty carts, if you don't give them to them, you won't leave." After getting the news, Cai Mao came and said to Liu Biao very embarrassed.

"A businessman is a businessman, and if he is really mercenary, he really fell into the eye of money, the treasure of twenty carts, where did I get so much money." Liu Biao was not calm, he was so angry that he scolded, he didn't quit if he didn't get the money, this is blackmail.

Liu Biao was very angry, angry not only because Ye Chen's asking price was too high, but also because Ye Chen did not withdraw from the army, if he did not withdraw from the army for a day, Liu Biao would not be able to do anything for a day, like a sharp sword hanging over his head, where would he have any mind to do other things.

"Lord Zhou Mu, this Ye Chen is really too much, but now we must let him withdraw from the city first, now the center of the city is panicking, Ye Chen does not withdraw his troops, this is going to be a mess." Cai Mao deliberately said anxiously, ostensibly for Liu Biao's sake, but in fact, he was forcing the palace and forcing him to agree, if you don't see this Xiangyang City, it will be a big mess, can you care?

When Liu Biao heard this, he really calmed down a lot, and he really couldn't go on like this, otherwise this Xiangyang City might really be in chaos.

Stomp and tread

At this time, a sound of footsteps came, and Liu Biao and Cai Mao saw that it was Kuai Yue in mourning clothes.

"Xenodu, why are you here, I am very sorry for Brother Ling's death, but the deceased is gone, and the most important thing for you now is to let Brother Ling be buried in a grand manner." Liu Biao saw that it was Kuai Yue who came in, so he persuaded him.

Cai Mao on the side was silent.

Kuai Yue shook his head and said: "There is something that must be made clear to Lord Zhou Mu, otherwise my eldest brother will definitely die blindly, I was going to come over this morning to explain it clearly to Lord Zhou Mu, but I didn't expect such a thing to happen." ”

After Kuai Yue finished speaking, there were tears in his eyes, when he left last night, Kuai Liang was holding on to death, but there were too many things at that time, and he was busy all night, and he was very tired, so he didn't pay attention.

"Okay, what's the matter." Liu Biao said.

Kuai Yue took a deep breath, and then said with a face full of anger: "Please be aware of the state pastor, the fire in this state pastoral mansion was not set by the people sent by my eldest brother, but the fire set by the order of Ye Chen in Liaodong, even if my eldest brother has the courage to burn the state pastoral mansion." ”

"What! How could this be. Liu Biao was not calm at all after hearing this, and he asked loudly: "Is this serious?" ”

This news was so shocking that it completely subverted Liu Biao's previous thoughts.

"Really. This matter is not difficult to investigate, and there are many survivors in the state chaplain's office, and they can also testify to it. Kuai Yue said sadly.

"Shameless, shameless."

Thinking that Ye Chen actually used the matter of burning the Prefecture Pastoral Mansion to blackmail him, saying that he set fire to the Prefecture Pastoral Mansion in order to burn him to death, in order to destroy the corpse.

Thinking of this, Liu Biao was calm, and scolded loudly.

Cai Mao on the side was also dumbfounded, thinking of how Ye Chen questioned Liu Biao at the beginning, no one would have thought that the fire would be set by Ye Chen.

"I'm going to kill him, kill him." Liu Biao scolded angrily and threatened to kill Ye Chen.

Cai Mao came to his senses and hurriedly said: "Lord Zhou Mu can't do it, even if the fire was set by Ye Chen, but it is unreasonable for us to say that this matter is put outside, and it can still be intercepted and killed in the dignified State Pastoral Mansion, and it is our fault to spread it, but Lord Zhou Mu can rest assured, with this handle, he will be sure to make Ye Chen retreat." ”

Liu Biao calmed down, unless there was a war, it was useless to threaten Ye Chen with this.

"Okay, you go, the most important thing is to let Ye Chen exit the city first." Liu Biao said speechlessly.

I always thought that it was the fire set by the Kuai family, and I was planning to liquidate it in the future, but it turned out to be Ye Chen.

No one would have thought that the fire was set by Ye Chen, because he was a victim, and others were going to intercept him.

Cai Mao walked out of the Kuai Mansion, and countless thoughts crossed in his heart, this Ye Chen really didn't have anything to take into account when he did things, this state pastoral mansion said that it would be burned, and he was not afraid that Liu Biao would be burned to death together.

Ye Chen is really not afraid of burning Liu Biao, anyway, it is the hand of the Kuai family, can the Kuai family say it clearly when the time comes?

Cai Mao went to Ye Chen's military tent again, but Ye Chen fell asleep again, and he found Guo Jia.

"In this case, yes, we can go out of the city today, but the treasures of the twenty carts cannot be less, and we must gather them within five days, our army is outside the city, don't doubt the power of our Liaodong army, although we are in Jingzhou, we are not afraid." Guo Jia said while holding his mustache.

"Brother Guo, these twenty cars will be collected within five days, even if I agree, the state shepherd will not be able to take it out." Cai Mao said with a smile.

"Hehe, I can't take it out, but there are so many families in the city, just one person can make up a little, and when the time comes, who will come out more and who will come out less, it's not what General Cai said, and we can only buy General Cai five days, and what you can do in five days depends on yourself." Guo Jia said to him with a smile.
