"This Xuande, you know I can't live without you."

Liu Biao pondered for a long time, and finally failed to make this decision.

How could Liu Qi, the son on the side, not understand his father's considerations, but in his opinion, Liu Beizhi is loyal and pure, benevolent, righteous and virtuous, and he will never do anything to steal and rob, this person can be trusted.

Therefore, Liu Qi just secretly grieved, and immediately waited for Liu Bei's answer.

"Brother Huang, don't worry, I will never leave Xiangyang, but the matter of secretly developing strength must continue, this matter can be ordered to Yuanlong and others, and it will never alarm Cai Mao and others, and whether or not to leave Xiangyang is a kind of paralysis of Cai Mao."

In fact, Liu Bei has already considered two answers, if Liu Biao directly agrees to return it, but there is a trace of worry, it proves that he has not fully won Liu Biao's trust, and at this time Xu Tuzhi.

"Xuande is really like this, and the good is good."

Liu Biao was immediately overjoyed, Liu Bei's answer was really a way for him to get the best of both worlds, he knew that as long as Liu Bei was controlled, then the gang of generals under his command would inevitably be bogeyed and would never be double-minded.

Liu Qi, who was standing on Liu Biao's side, smiled indifferently, and was even more convinced of his judgment, Liu Bei was absolutely reliable.

Liu Biaoyi was happy, smiled, and promised: "Xuande, I have a house in the north of the city, which is slightly worse than the Zhizhou Pastoral Mansion, but it is the old residence two years ago, so you will live there temporarily, and please ask Xuande to take care of it." ”

Liu Bei arched his hand again and again: "Where is it!" Living in Xiangyang, how can you pick and choose, and you will be grateful if you have a place to live. ”

"Huh!" Liu Biao waved his hand, and the smile on his face became even brighter: "What is the guest house!?" Xiangyang is the home of Xuande's brother, and all of Xuande's expenses in Xiangyang are paid by the state pastor's office. ”

Liu Biao turned his head and greeted, "Qi'er." ”

Liu Qi arched his hand: "Father." ”

"Choose fifty servants, twenty beauties in the old residence in the north of the city, and then order the craftsman to completely renovate it inside and out, allocate 20,000 yuan from the account room to buy some belongings first, and be sure to let your imperial uncle live in a new house within three days."

"Son, I'm going to do it."

Liu Biao nodded. glanced at Liu Bei and laughed happily.

In the next three days, Liu Bei first cooperated with Chen Deng and Guan Yu to incorporate the group of bandits into the Jingzhou army. Led by Chen Deng to rush back to Jiangxia City, by the way, he ordered Hu Che'er and Chen Zhi to lead a hundred guards to Xiangyang, first, to protect Liu Bei's personal safety, and secondly, Xiangyang is the seat of Jingzhou, which is prosperous and prosperous. There must be many basic craftsmen such as carpenters, blacksmiths, and tailors, and these people have their own wonderful uses.

Next, Sun Gan, Mi Zhu and others hurriedly arranged for their wives to move into their new homes, and ordered people to send the relatives of Fu Xu, Tian Feng, and Zhang He back to Jiangxia, it was not that Liu Bei didn't want their families to live in Xiangyang together, but this Xiangyang was a golden wire cage, full of all kinds of dangers, to put it bluntly, even Liu Bei was equivalent to a hostage.

Immediately afterwards, Liu Bei opened a medical center for Mr. Hua Tuo through the relationship of his son Liu Qi, which not only saved lives and helped the injured, but more importantly, recruited apprentices. Male or female.

This condition was very impactful in that era, and there was ridicule of Liu Bei in Xiangyang City for a while, and at the same time praise for Liu Bei, but Liu Bei just blindly implemented it, and did not pay attention to this worldly gossip at all.

Liu Biao saw these things in his eyes, but he didn't stop them at all, as long as you Liu Bei didn't hook up with some celebrities, and secretly still helped himself develop his troops, then it proved that there was no objection, and it didn't matter what he did.

this day. Liu Bei finally really rested.

"Master, there is a man outside the mansion who calls himself Xu Shu who has come to see him."

The servant Ah San has been following Sun Qian and others from Xuzhou to Jingzhou, but he knows very little about Xu Shu. After all, Xu Shu only stayed in Xuzhou for one day.

As soon as Liu Bei heard that it was Xu Shu, he hurriedly put down the bald pen in his hand, closed the bamboo slip, waved his hand and said excitedly: "Go!" Accompany me to greet your guests. ”

Squeak~yah~

The vermilion door gradually opened, and Liu Bei broke out with a smile like a chrysanthemum, one step at a time. came to Xu Shu, held his hand, and said sincerely: "Yuan Zhi!" It's really you! ”

Xu Shu had tears in his eyes, regardless of his image, and immediately knelt on the ground and saluted: "Lord! From now on, I will do my best to assist, and there will never be two hearts. ”

Liu Bei hurriedly helped him up, pulled Xu Shu and went to the house: "Go, go, go!" Went home. ”

While the two of them rushed to the inner courtyard, Liu Bei greeted Ah San and said, "Inform the whole mansion to have dinner tonight and wash the dust for Yuan directly." ”

As soon as the two returned to the study, Chen Dao, Sun Qian, Mi Zhu and others came to meet the legendary Xu Shu.

A group of people exchanged pleasantries for a while, filling the entire study with laughter.

At this time, Liu Bei opened his mouth and asked, "Yuan Zhi!" Have you ever met Mr. Wolong and Mr. Feng Xiao this time to learn art? ”

Xu Shu arched his hand, his face was full of joy, and he replied: "Lord! Wolong and Feng Xiao have the talent of the heavens and the earth, if they get one of them, Kuang Fu Han will not be a problem. ”

The people next to him were obviously in disbelief.

"Yuan Zhi! Is it difficult for these two to learn and be higher than you!? ”

"Yuan Zhi must not grow the ambition of others and destroy his own prestige, I don't believe that these two people can be evaluated by you like this."

"Yes! Yuan Zhi is a great talent, this Wolong and Phoenix Chicks are just famous, they must be some disciples on paper. ”

“”

Xu Shu basically always laughed at these remarks, for him, there is no need to say too clearly to these people, as long as the lord can understand the talents of these two people, and Xu Shu will not praise these two people with the lord Liu Bei at all.

Because Xu Shu believes! The lord already knew that these two people were talented, otherwise he would not have personally instructed him when he was in Xuzhou.

Liu Bei stretched his neck forward and asked urgently: "Then these two people are willing to use it for me!?" ”

"This" Xu Shu was dumbfounded, and lowered his head: "Although these two people are not willing to take refuge, they have not clearly stated that they are unwilling to serve, such as Kong Ming, who is in the Nanyang grass house at this time, isn't it just to follow the example of Zhou Gong and wait for the real hero?"

Although Shi Yuan has already gone to Jiangdong, Sun Quan has already had Zhou Yu and Lu Su's disciples, and he will never have a bright future, according to his opinion, within three years, Shi Yuan will definitely be attached to the lord. ”

Liu Bei nodded: "I think so too." ”

In the past few days, Chen Zhi has always been busy recruiting various craftsmen, so Liu Bei always has some things in mind, and just now he talked about Zhuge Liang, which made Liu Bei suddenly think of the two major artifacts of the Wooden Ox Flowing Horse and Zhuge Repeater, if he could have these two artifacts in the early period of the Three Kingdoms, it would undoubtedly be a great improvement for Liu Bei.

After pondering for a long time, Liu Bei finally showed a faint sly smile: "Yuan Zhi!" I heard that Kong Ming has some habits, and likes to play with some wood tools and engage in some inventions, but is there such a thing!? ”

Xu Shu was a little shocked, and looked at Liu Bei with wide eyes: "Lord! You're such a god, how do you even know this!? Not only Kong Ming is interested in these, but her wife Huang Yueying is even more fascinated by them. ”

"Huang Yueying!?"

Liu Bei suddenly remembered this person and patted his head: "Oh! is the daughter of Huang Chengyan. Speaking of which, Kong Ming and the Governor of Jingzhou are quite related. ”

Although Xu Shu and Kong Ming have lived together for more than two years, he doesn't even know this very well, Xu Shu swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said incredulously: "Lord! The"

Liu Bei was very indifferent to this: "Cai Mao has an older sister, a younger sister, the younger sister married Liu Jingzhou, and the sister married Huang Chengyan, Huang Yueying is Huang Chengyan's daughter, so Zhuge Liang is Huang Chengyan's son-in-law." ”

Everyone nodded again and again, and finally understood the complicated relationship.

Xu Shu frowned: "Lord! Since Kong Ming has such a relationship with Cai Mao, and Cai Mao regards the lord as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh, will this Kong Ming "

"Huh!" Liu Bei waved his hand to interrupt Xu Shu: "Yuan Zhi can rest assured that although Kong Ming has some relationship with Cai Mao, it will definitely not prevent Kong Ming from serving me." ”

Xu Shu was puzzled: "Why!?" ”

Liu Bei laughed: "It's very simple! In Cai Mao's eyes, Zhuge Liang is just a child, and it is not the turn of a child to point fingers at him. ”

After that, there was another burst of laughter in the study.

After a while, Liu Bei instructed Xu Shu: "Yuan Zhi! In recent days, you have often come into contact with that Kong Ming, and deliberately learned woodworking techniques from him, such as: Can you build a kind of car to replace the war horse to transport grain and grass, which can save both effort and war horse? For example, can you make a giant bow and crossbow, with Zhangyu spear as arrows, one shot of multiple arrows, when attacking the city, the range is long, and the power is great? ”

"How is this possible!?" On the side, Sun Qian said a little incredulously: "If there is really such a thing, when attacking the city, it will definitely be able to get twice the result with half the effort, and it will be able to reduce casualties." ”

Liu Bei said solemnly: "Gongyou! Remember the phrase that anything is possible. It is probably impossible for others to make them, but for Mr. Kong Ming, it is only a matter of time before these large weapons are made, whether it is a year, or two years, or even longer. ”

Xu Shu was silent in the room for a moment, and immediately understood the meaning of Liu Bei's words, smiled indifferently, and waved it: "Lord! This matter will be handed over to the next generation, and Mr. Kong Ming will definitely be made to serve the lord. ”

It's easy to communicate with a smart person, and he doesn't need to say it too clearly, and he will understand what you mean.

"Yuan Zhi! Remember, my Liu Bei has always employed people regardless of background, regardless of age, meritocracy, and treat everyone equally. It will not bury anyone who has real talent and learning! ”

Three visits to the thatched house!? Liu Bei smiled silently.

According to many historical records, Zhuge Liang actually came to visit a Liu Bei before Liu Bei visited the thatched house, but because Zhuge Liang's status was a little low and his age was a little young at that time, Liu Bei did not put Kong Ming in his eyes, but this also reflects a truth from another side, Zhuge Liang still hopes to be born in his heart, and the first goal is Liu Bei.

Moreover, this time is different from the past, Liu Bei is no longer the Liu Bei of the past, and there is more of the public opinion foundation laid in advance by Xu Shu and Chen Deng, and I believe that Zhuge Liang, who is too high in his own value with extraordinary means, will no longer exist.
