Chapter 40 Visiting Jingzhou, the old farmer sells pears

Liu Xuewu casually left his son in Yizhou to accompany his old parents, but he still visited Jingzhou as originally planned. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Regarding Liu Xuewu's arrival, although Jingzhou got the news early in the morning, whether it was an enemy or a friend, the meeting hall of Liu's Mansion in Jingzhou was noisy.

The people present now are divided into three factions, one is the welcome faction led by Liu Qi, the other is the resistance faction led by Cai Mao, and the neutral faction led by Kuai Yue.

As Liu Qi's side believes that Liu Xuewu and us are the same Han clan relatives, and they have to support each other more in this troubled era, Liu Xuewu's visit can further strengthen the cooperation between the two sides, and it is best to form an offensive and defensive alliance to echo its north and south. At that time, Jingzhou's position was extremely stable, and no one dared to provoke.

Of course, the person here refers to Jiangdong Sun Jianluo, plus Liu Qisu and Liu Xuewu are good friends, and the two sides have exchanged letters over the years, so Liu Qi is very happy about Liu Xuewu's visit.

As an opponent, the Cai Mao brothers think that Liu Xuewu actually came with 20,000 cavalry, which is definitely not good, not to mention that Liu Qi, Liu Dagongzi and Liu Xuewu have a good relationship, this is a well-known thing in the world, if Liu Xuewu visits and Liu Yan agrees on something, it will not be even more detrimental to his and Cai's actions.

As a third party, Kuai Yue thinks that it is none of his business and hangs high, and does not want to be considered by others who they support. In fact, in front of these families, as long as their interests are not violated, it will be no problem who is in charge of the house in the future. This is also the reason why Cao Cao's army has not yet arrived in history, and the families in Jingzhou have already surrendered.

At this time, Liu Biao was also very confused, and he was deeply wary of this junior who rose like a legend and a myth. Because he himself entered Jingzhou single-handedly, relying on various means to sit in his current position, he was worried that there would be no successor, but now it seems that the transformation of the eldest son makes him feel very gratified. In his opinion, as long as Liu Xuewu

It's not the idea of fighting Jingzhou, so he doesn't mind meeting this junior who is known as a myth and legend. He admires Liu Qi and Liu Xuewu for their friendship with each other, as a good lord, a good monarch does not have to be eloquent, not necessarily smart, but must not lose the royal majesty and diplomacy.

Since ancient times, the way of kings, the art of emperors, is nothing more than playing balance. A monarch and emperor who can make good use of talents, whether loyal or treacherous, loyal ministers have his usefulness, and traitorous ministers also have their reason for existence. Both are a double-edged sword, and those who use traitors well can calm the world; Those who are loyal and make good use of them will open up their territories. Of course, if the two are not used properly, the destruction of the country and the annihilation of the clan will also change hands.

Here Liu Biao is a master of playing balance, after careful consideration, he replied to Liu Xuewu's request to visit, but limited the number of visitors. Liu Biao can't let 20,000 elite cavalry who don't know whether they are friends or enemies enter his territory for no reason, and if Liu Xuewu turns his face and doesn't recognize people, then he will soon be a tragedy.

And the number of people must be limited to a controllable range, which can not make Liu Xuewu lose face, but also acceptable to both parties, and finally the cautious Liu Biao gave a quota of five hundred guards to his entourage, which Liu Xuewu is still quite satisfied, which shows that Liu Biao does not reject him in his heart.

But Liu Xuewu didn't know that Jingzhou at this time was not only Liu Biao, but also Liu Bei, who had been sick. Although this sick tiger is still recuperating now, it does not mean that he is not hungry, if he takes the opportunity to exert his power on Liu Xuewu and create chaos in Jingzhou, then his sick tiger may take advantage of this to rise again.

Upon learning that Liu Xuewu was visiting Jingzhou, Liu Bei summoned the three brothers together to discuss. It is said that the three Taoyuan brothers are not familiar with Liu Xuewu, and they have not had any intersection, and the only thing they have in common is that they are all surnamed Liu. It's just that he is a side branch of the orthodox royal family, and he just hangs a sign of the Han family in his mouth, and no one takes it seriously when he puts it outside.

Thinking of this, Liu Bei became more and more angry the more he thought about it.

In the current world of hegemony in the late Han Dynasty, most of the historical trend has deviated from the right track, Dong Zhuo is alive and well, Cao Cao did not welcome the Han Emperor, Sun Jian is not dead, Sun Ce is of course not dead, but all parties are in chaos. Almost each of the thirteen states at the end of the Han Dynasty represents a prince, which makes others mix well, and it means that Liu Bei is more and more depressed.

The only thing that hasn't changed is that Liu Beizhi came to Liu Bei since he was defeated by Cao Cao, originally Liu Biao didn't recognize him as a distant relative, but Cai Mao persuaded him to accept Liu Bei, so that people in the world knew that Liu Biao was eager to seek talent, even if it was a fake clansman, he was also appointed and reused. So after careful consideration, Liu Bei was arranged to be the door board in Xinye, if Cao Cao from the north went south to attack Jingzhou, then

Liu Bei and others are the first to bear the brunt of the shield, and this abacus is clanging. One is willing to fight, the other is willing to suffer, what do we outsiders say!

In order to show that Jingzhou attaches great importance to Liu Xuewu's visit this time, Liu Qi and Liu Bei were sent to wait for reception at Shili Pavilion at the junction of Yizhou and Jingzhou early in the morning.

Of course, Liu Xuewu's appearance is also extremely magnificent, although there have been constant wars over the years, everyone knows that the richest people in the world are none other than Erliu, Liu Yan and Liu Liu Xuewu, and the two of them are father and son, and the wealth in the world has been taken up by their family. Originally, before the Yellow Turban Uprising, it was a triangular tripod, Jingzhou was rich in the world, Xuzhou was rich in the world, and Luoyang and Kyoto gathered in the world. It's a pity that after years of war, Luoyang and Xuzhou, which once gathered, have long been in trouble.

On the contrary, Yizhou, the country of abundance, has lived and worked in peace and contentment in these years, and since the People's Republic of China, it has been rich and famous, as well as the commerce and trade of the state, plus Liu Xuewu introduced refugees from all over the world to form the largest chamber of commerce in the world. So Liu Xuewu took 500 people this time, but he spent a lot of money to build it. Gorgeous and magnificent costumes,

All new stainless steel oolong armor, riding five hundred pure black big-name war horses specially brought back from Bingzhou, holding all wolf-headed machetes. The devil's battle flag embroidered with gold silk was the first to open the way, and a handsome flag with red characters on a black background marched towards Jingzhou for the Chinese army. The armor on the soldiers was reflected by the sun, and as far as the eye could see,

It was like a group of heavenly soldiers descending to earth, and their whole body was glowing.

The crowd of onlookers was crowded.

"Xiaobao damn, come and see the heavenly soldiers." An old farmer with a flat pole carrying fruits was about to go to the market to sell, and as soon as he went out, he saw Liu Xuewu's escort, and was stunned by the scene in front of him.

"Cut, what a heavenly soldier and a general, a countryman who has not seen it, this is the escort of Liu Xuewu and Liu Houye of Bingzhou, and today I am visiting our Jingzhou." A scholar dressed as a scholar looked at the old farmer with disdain and said.

"That's it, our Master He just heard that Hou Ye Liu will pass by here today, so he notified his relatives and friends to come to see this nobleman, hoping to be extravagant and give birth to a big fat son next year." A man dressed as a housekeeper said.

The confused old farmer asked suspiciously: "What, as long as you see each other, you can give birth to a big fat son, how can you?" Could it be that this Marquis Liu is a god who can't go down to earth. ”

"You're right, our family Liu Hou Ye is a fairy descending to earth, it is said that he is a Wenqu star, he can compose poems at the age of four, and at the age of sixteen, he was personally named by the former Son of Heaven. A obese girl said shyly.

"I'm really not ashamed, how did Marquis Liu become your family." Passerby A next to him scolded secretly.

"That's it, Hou Ye Liu is everyone's. Old man, how do you sell these pears, give me two for uncle. ”

"yes, I want this peach."

Anyway, the old farmer still didn't understand who Liu Houye was and what his function was, he only knew that he should go back and pick up some more fruits to sell, and now the fruits in the bamboo basket have been sold out.
