Dead.

Xiangyang, the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.

"Wait here, I have important matters to discuss with the Metropolitan Governor, don't teach others to disturb me."

Cai came to the inner courtyard, waved his hand to stop the entourage behind him, turned around and said a few words, and then pushed the door in.

"Sister!?"

Cai Mao was wearing an inky black jacket, and was discussing something with Cai Zhong and Cai He at this time, but when she saw Cai coming, she immediately waved her hand to rebuke the two and welcomed Cai to sit down beside her.

Cai's expression was a little nervous, Liu frowned, and when he saw Cai Zhong, Cai and the two of them leaving the room, he immediately grabbed Cai Mao's arm with his hand and said, "Brother! Oh no. ”

Cai Mao smiled, patted Cai's slender hand, and comforted: "Who dares to mess with my sister?" Tell your brother about it. ”

"Alas! Brother, don't be kidding, this is not a joke. ”

Seeing that her sister was still looking sad, Cai Mao really believed what was going on at this time, smiled and said solemnly: "Sister! What happened? ”

"I heard that Liu Bei really defeated Sun Quan, and this matter has been spread to Liu Jun (that is, Liu Biao)."

The only smile on Cai Mao's face was completely frozen at this time, although his face was as calm as water, but his heart was already turbulent, and his hatred for Liu Bei had reached an unprecedented level.

"Hmmm! I already know about this matter, sister rest assured, isn't it just Liu Bei, with only 700 troops, how can it compete with my hundreds of thousands of troops, and it won't be long before I let Liu Bei die without a place to be buried. ”

Cai Mao clenched his fists, and his star-like eyes seemed to be full of anger, and he only needed one introduction to burn the entire world.

"But! Liu Jun wants to use that big-eared thief against you! ”

On the one hand, her husband, on the other hand, her brother, for the Cai family, they are her closest relatives, but in the family of the princes and emperors, such a family that looks like a pair of pincers. It made her very uncomfortable.

In the depths of Cai's heart, she didn't want Liu Biao and Cai Mao to open their hearts, be honest with each other, and have no deceit. There is no intrigue, not even entanglement of interests.

But Chua was wrong! She's really naïve!

In fact, from the moment she married Liu Biao, she had become a victim of politics, Cai Mao didn't care whether Cai would be happy if she married Liu Biao, and Liu Biao didn't think about whether she really liked Cai.

Everything, everything. It's all because of a sharp word!

As the so-called bustling world, all for profit, the world is bustling, all for profit! A woman like Cai, in this chaotic era at the end of the Han Dynasty, how could she escape the emperor's power.

When Cai ran out of Jingzhou Mansion to pass on the words she heard to Cai Mao, she had actually become Cai Mao's undercover agent who was planted by Liu Biao's side, and this undercover agent was absolutely loyal to her, and she completely won Liu Biao's trust.

"Humph! wants to use Liu Bei to balance me Cai Mao, it's just whimsical! Old Puff. You wait, sooner or later, one day I Cai Mao will want you to look good. ”

When Cai's finally shouted that sentence, Cai Mao didn't take into account Cai's feelings at all, and took the case up and scolded him, which was very scary!

Cai's suddenly collapsed on the ground, two lines of tears, snatching out of her eyes, Cai Mao at this moment, is she really the brother who loved her at the beginning? No! It can't be like this! Someone who can say that. Which one is good?

Cai Mao pulled up Cai's who was slumped on the ground, and he realized that he shouldn't be so brutal in front of his sister, so he hurriedly comforted: "Sister! You don't want to blame your brother for being ruthless, it's Liu Biao who is unkind. I am the last one in the wrong. ”

Cai grabbed Cai Mao's arm and asked in an almost pleading tone: "If Liu Jun doesn't treat his brother like that, will his brother still be so ruthless?" ”

"Alas!"

Cai Mao sighed, stared at her sister's teary eyes, stroked Cai's jade hand, and said, "Sister! My brother is not such a ruthless person. Since following the lord, it has been more than ten years, brother and I can be regarded as loyal to Jingzhou, painstaking, the lord has no ambitions, no matter how much he protects the land, brother, I have a trace of complaints? ”

Cai shook his head, wiping away tears like a child and listening to Cai Mao's teachings.

"Nope! This time Sun Quan is coming, brother, why did I say that I would not fight? Nor did it! Now the lord confirms that my power is too great, and his merits are high, and he wants to use Liu Bei's hand to balance me!! This really broke my brother's heart! ”

Although Cai Mao is already a wife, she has not experienced the sinister baptism in people's hearts, and she has no defense against Cai Mao, so this speech made Cai begin to sympathize with her brother's situation.

"Brother, don't worry! My sister can go home and persuade Liu Jun to let go of your old suspicions with you, and with our own strength, we can still defeat Sun Quan! Cai said innocently.

Cai Mao grabbed Cai, who was about to turn around and leave, and said, "Sister! This must not be the case. If you speak openly to the Lord at this time, will it not prove that you have told me these words, and then the Lord will be angry with you, and my brother would rather die than let my sister suffer the slightest grievance. ”

"Brother! You're so nice. ”

Cai Shi was a little moved, as if the brother who loved her and loved her was back at this time, and his eyes were full of happiness.

Cai Mao continued: "Sister, rest assured, this matter will not hinder the relationship between me and the lord, as long as Liu Bei is eliminated, everything will be as calm as before." ”

Cai took advantage of the situation to snuggle in her brother's arms, and nodded with a sigh, such a home is a real home, but she doesn't know that a real conspiracy has started from now on, and she is the most important point of this conspiracy.

*****************

Early the next morning, Xiangyang Hall.

Liu Biao sat on the top, looking calm, smiling, as if he was in a happy mood.

There are two people in the hall, one is Hu Che'er, the commander of the guard, and the other is Huang Zhu lying on a bamboo chair.

Hua Tuo is really a miracle doctor, such a serious injury in his hands is just a pediatric, only half a day has recovered most of it, at this moment has long been out of danger of life, the rest is just to recuperate in order to recover.

"My lord! Uncle Liu Huang is really brave and invincible, only with 700 fine cavalry twice defeated Sun Quan, if the lord has the help of this person, he can cross the river and level the south of the Yangtze River, and retreat can protect Jingzhou. Why not? ”

Huang Jie lay on the bamboo chair and reported to Liu Biao because of his injury.

Zhang Yun stood up on the side and sneered contemptuously: "Hmph! Seven hundred elite horsemen broke Sun Quan? How can it be? Your father's army of 20,000 can't be stopped, can Liu Bei just 700 fine horses? If so, could it be that your father's 20,000 troops are not as good as Liu Bei's 700 cavalry!? ”

Zhang Yun's words are really ruthless, Huang Zu is Huang Jie's father, if it is based on the life-saving benefactor Liu Bei, it will inevitably damage the reputation of his father Huang Zu, but if he does not admit that his father is a wreck, then he will treat Liu Bei, the life-saving benefactor.

It's a double-edged sword, and no matter what you choose, it will hurt one side.

For a while, Huang Jie was in a dilemma.

At this moment, Gongzi Liu Qi stood up, glanced at Zhang Yun, and said: "As far as I know, Liu Bei's two battles are both unexpected, and General Huang Zu is not the same as the head-on confrontation, these 700 elite cavalry is by no means the weakness of 20,000 male soldiers, if Liu Bei confronts Sun Quan's 30,000 army head-to-head with a mere 700 troops, then the end will be more tragic than General Huang Zu, at most, it can only be said that Huang Zu's skills are not as good as others, what does it have to do with the troops?" ”

As if he had found a savior, Huang Jian hurriedly nodded and admitted: "That's true, it's true!" ”

Immediately after, the son Liu Qi bowed and said, "Father! In my opinion, Uncle Liu Huang came to vote for this time, and for us to retreat to the enemy, if we do not accept it, we are afraid of provoking the criticism of the world, saying that the father is unkind and unjust, and the heart of a villain. It is better to push the boat down the river, and accept Uncle Liu Huang, so as to show the virtue of his father's benevolence and righteousness. ”

At this time, Cai Mao stood up, clasped his fists and said sonorously: "Childe's words are very good!" If Liu Bei is not accepted at this time, then it will be unkind and unjust. According to the foolish opinion of the last general, we not only have to accept Liu Bei, but also make things bigger, so that the princes of the world know that we have accepted Liu Bei, so that we can not only deter Sun Quan in Jiangdong, but also deter Cao Cao in the north, and also show the lord's forgiveness and benevolence. ”

As soon as these words came out, the entire hall was immediately shocked! Everyone's eyes were focused on Cai Mao.

Cai Mao, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd!?

Liu Biao frowned, hesitated again and again, and still did not dare to easily agree to this conclusion that had already been finalized.

In a moment of melancholy, Cai Mao said again: "Lord! Liu Bei is at the end of the road at this time, at this time to lend a hand, Liu Bei will be grateful to the lord, as long as Liu Bei is subdued, the generals under this person will naturally belong to the lord, and then the lord will have the resources to win the world. ”

The more Cai Mao is like this, the more suspicious Liu Biao becomes, and the more he dare not make up his mind.

Gongzi Liu Qi is even more so, before the discussion in the main hall, Liu Qi had even gone through a hundred and ten moves with Cai Mao in his heart, and even carefully pondered every sentence of Cai Mao.

People are not as good as heaven!

Cai Mao's seemingly compromising method actually hides a more vicious strategy.

Liu Biao looked at Cai Mao, then at Liu Qi, was silent for a moment, and finally spoke: "Since most of the governors agree to accept Liu Bei, then this matter is done!" ”

Cai Mao bowed slightly: "The lord is wise!" According to the opinion of the last general, Sun Quan had already retreated at this time, so it was better to summon Liu Bei back to Xiangyang and hold a grand reception ceremony for him, which could be regarded as officially joining forces with the lord.
