Chapter 40: Jingxiang Fengyun (3)
"That Zhang Fei is too much!" Back at the post house, Lu Lingqi took off the mask on her face, slammed it on the table, and said indignantly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Zhao Yun sat silently in the chair, today's events made him feel how much in his heart, although it was not from Liu Bei's mouth, but Zhang Fei's sentence of betraying the master made Zhao Yun feel depressed.
Yang Fu looked outside the door, turned his head to look at Zhao Yundao, "Zilong is worried about today's affairs?" ”
Zhao Yun reluctantly smiled: "Sir, don't worry too much, Yun is fine, it shouldn't be Xuandegong's original intention." ”
Yang Fu leaned back in his chair and rubbed his temples a little tiredly: "This trip to Jingzhou, I'm afraid I will have to be entrusted by the lord." ”
"Why?" Lu Lingqi looked at Yang Fu puzzled, frowned, and said, "I think that Liu Biao also has a heartbeat." ”
"The problem is not Liu Biao, as a monarch, Liu Biao naturally does not want the north to be unified, now Yuan Cao has joined forces, the lord is weak, once the lord is destroyed, the north is probably followed by a unified situation, no matter who dominates the north, the next step is to unify the army south, Liu Jingzhou can't not see it, but the problem is that in Jingxiang, Liu Jingzhou said it alone." Yang Fu tapped his fingers on the table.
"Why is this, as a prince, can't he even decide his own affairs?" Lu Lingqi frowned and said, in Yongliang, Lu Bu's words have absolute authority, once Lu Bu has made up his mind, no one can object, in Lu Lingqi's opinion, all the princes in the world should be like this.
"Back then, Liu Jingzhou set up Jingzhou, which sounded extremely powerful, but back then, Liu Jingzhou pacified Jingxiang Nine Counties, relying on the strength of the four major families in Jingzhou." Yang Fu thought about it and said: "Since I borrowed this favor, Miss must remember that the favor is the most difficult thing in the world to return, with the help of the power of the family, it is equivalent to giving up part of the rights, in Jingxiang, when Liu Jingzhou's ideas are contrary to the wishes of the family, if you don't want to break up, the two sides will make a compromise, and the result of the compromise will become modest, even if we convince Liu Jingzhou, in the end, Liu Jingzhou may only send some people to Nanyang, for our army, it is of little significance." ”
"Those families are so stupid, if Jingzhou is gone, what will they do?" Lu Lingqi frowned.
"It's not stupid, but it's too smart, because even if Jingzhou is occupied by other forces and Liu Jingzhou is gone, the family is still a family, and they are worried that offending Cao Cao too much will lead to revenge in the future, so they are unwilling to contribute."
"Then my father ......" Lu Lingqi looked at Yang Fu with a hint of worry in her eyes.
"Xia Guan dares to say this to Miss, because the lord is different from Liu Jingzhou and even the princes of the world, his world is fought down with his knife and gun, without the help of the family's strength, and therefore, this set of the family will not work with the lord, the lord does not need to look at anyone's face, he has absolute control over the rule, as long as the lord is in one day, Yongliang, the Western Regions, Hetao and even Bingzhou and Luoyang will not be chaotic." Yang Fu smiled bitterly: "But it is precisely because of this that the lord will be ostracized by the world's families, just like Cai Mao today, and even the Huang family, who has always been against the Cai family, has chosen neutrality in this matter." ”
Lu Lingqi suddenly felt a little guilty, and it wasn't until this moment that she didn't know how much pressure Lu Bu was carrying on her shoulders, and looked at Yang Fu and said, "That's ...... What's the point of us staying in Jingzhou? ”
"Naturally." Yang Fu took a sip of tea and moistened his throat: "At least Liu Jingzhou can remain neutral before the victory or defeat in the north, the lord is now facing the pressure of Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and even Zhang Lu, this pressure is not light, if you add a Liu Jingzhou, it is almost equivalent to enemies on all sides, we are here, even if we can't say that Jingxiang can form an alliance, we must try to keep Jingxiang neutral." ”
"Jing Xiang is like this, is it necessary for Jiangdong to go again?" Lu Lingqi sat beside Zhao Yun and said bitterly.
"Jiangdong is different from Jingxiang, but it's worth a try." Yang Fu said with a smile: "If it weren't for Sun Ce's early death, he might not become the second lord, Sun Ce is not weaker than the lord in the strength of the family, but unfortunately died young, now Sun Quan sits in the six counties of Jiangdong, and there is the Yangtze River moat, it can be said that there is no worries, and the strength of the family is also under the pressure of Sun Ce, and therefore, it is still very possible to send troops to Jiangdong, and the most important thing is that there is no border between the lord and Jiangdong, if Cao Cao wins, the pressure on Jiangdong will increase sharply." Yang Fu said with a smile.
Lu Lingqi breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, if Jingxiang and Jiangdong could not be united, then Lu Bu would be completely isolated, and then frowned and said: "Sir, we were ambushed as soon as we entered Jingxiang, in this Xiangyang, will it ...... Why don't we rush to Koto immediately? ”
Yicheng overnight, if it weren't for the hussar guards who were alert and good at reconnaissance, I am afraid that even if they could break through, I am afraid that there would be a lot of casualties.
"Miss, don't worry." Yang Fu smiled and said: "Before Fu came here, the military advisor had expected that this trip would not go well, Fu originally did not believe it, but Yicheng overnight, but Fu was convinced, the military advisor once said that once he entered Jingxiang, he must make a big fanfare, and he must make everyone know, the two armies are fighting, and they will not kill them, not to mention that our army has no conflict with Liu Jingzhou now, Liu Jingzhou cherishes feathers, and will not be willing to give people a handle, no need for me to worry, Liu Jingzhou will also find ways to protect us." ”
"I hope so, but it's better for my husband and I to be in and out these days." Lu Lingqi nodded.
"Then I'll bother the eldest lady and General Zhao." Glancing at Zhao Yun, Yang Fu smiled and arched his hand.
……
"Brother Xian, you have a ...... affair with that General Zhao" In the Assassin's Mansion, all the guests have dispersed, Liu Biao took Liu Bei's hand with a little wine, turned his head to look at Liu Bei and said: "Brother I don't want to take care of it, but Jingzhou seems to be calm now, but the four major families are becoming more and more rampant, although Brother Wei has the heart to work hard, but he can't do it, the things in the north, the situation is changing, and the three-legged tripod can make Jingxiang long and stable, but if there is a unified situation, I am afraid it will not be the blessing of Jingxiang, for my brother I want to ask Xuande to try to restrain myself, don't have a conflict with Lu Bu's envoy again." ”
"Brother." Liu Bei's eyes turned red, and he held Liu Biao's arm, and said bitterly: "The reason for this matter is indeed Bei's fault, but please believe that my brother is here today, and there is no intention to disturb the situation, but Yide is upright by nature, and he admits death, and he will definitely reprimand him when he goes back this time." ”
Liu Biao nodded, looked at the starry sky in the sky, shook his head and sighed: "Brother Xian's words are serious, now the Han family is in turmoil, just when my ancestors are trying their best to turn the tide and help the needy, if I don't believe you, who else can I believe?" Yide has a strong temperament, don't I know that the virtuous brother is to comfort him, and there is no need to be too harsh. ”
"Remember my brother's teachings." Liu Bei bowed.
"If Brother Xian is fine, come with me." Liu Biao nodded, did not continue, but took Liu Bei to wander around the Assassin's Mansion.
……
"Second sister, I need you to help me with this matter." In the backyard of the Thorn Mansion, in Liu Biao's bedroom, Cai Mao lowered his head and said in a deep voice.
In front of him, a graceful woman leaned on the edge of the bed, holding a glass of wine in her jade-carved fingers, looking out of the window faintly, without answering, a cool breeze blew from the window, blowing the already light veil flying, and you could vaguely see the intoxicating spring color looming in it.
Cai Mao's head was lowered, and in the whole Jingxiang, no one knew better than him what kind of ruthless heart the graceful and luxurious, beautiful Lady Thorn Shi in front of him was hiding under that glamorous appearance.
Liu Biao's original match was under the strong persecution of his sister, forced to take poison and commit suicide, since then Liu Biao is a dignified state pastor, but he does not dare to touch a woman other than her, the entire Jingzhou Thorn Mansion, I don't know how many officials are secretly in her hands, if you talk about power, I am afraid that he, the governor of Jingzhou Navy, has to avoid three points, it is precisely because of this sister that the Cai family can faintly become the head of the four major families of Jingxiang, sometimes, Cai Mao actually feels that if his sister is a man, his achievements, It may not be much worse than Liu Biao.
"Women's families, it's not easy to ask about political affairs, how the husband wants to decide is his business, and I can't interfere." After a long time, Mrs. Cai sighed leisurely, turned her head to look at Cai Mao, looked at the other party's appearance, frowned slightly, shook her head and said: "Deju, you are the head of the Cai family, remember your identity, come to me for everything, what do you want?" ”
"Sister is a lesson." Cai Mao felt that her head was about to be stuffed into her chest.
Cautiously glanced up at Mrs. Cai, and saw that there was not too much anger on her face, so she said helplessly: "It's just that Yang Fu is too hateful, since Yicheng, he has made a lot of fanfare, making passers-by know, if he starts at this time, my brother-in-law will definitely not give up." ”
"Nonsense, you have blatantly demanded people's lives, don't you allow people to protect themselves?" Mrs. Cai glared at Cai Mao with some hatred, Cai Mao has a good way of fighting and governing the army, but she is too rigid to stand the blow, once she is frustrated, she becomes flustered and helpless, in Mrs. Cai's opinion, Cai Mao is not qualified to become the head of the Cai family at all.
Cai Mao couldn't help but smile bitterly when she heard this: "Now that I have my brother-in-law's protection, if I want to do it again, I'm afraid it's even more difficult." ”
"Why do you want us to do it?" Mrs. Cai leaned on the bed and glared at Cai Mao angrily: "Since Liu Xuande and Lu Bu's lives are filthy, why don't you borrow a knife to kill people?" ”
"The younger brother also thought about it." Cai Mao smiled bitterly: "It's just that this person and his brother-in-law have the same heart, the current situation, with Liu Bei's city government, I'm afraid he won't act arbitrarily, and that Zhang Fei was directly grounded by Liu Bei." ”
"You......" Mrs. Cai shook her head, looked at the moonlight outside the window, and said with a smile: "Borrowing a knife to kill people is not a real knife, many things can actually be borrowed, such as ...... Name. ”
"Sister is ......" Cai Mao raised her head and looked at Mrs. Cai, a gleam flashed in her eyes.
"I didn't say anything." Mrs. Cai said lightly.
"The younger brother understands, and the younger brother retires." As soon as Cai Mao saw Mrs. Cai's appearance, she knew that her sister was driving away, so she hurriedly agreed and left. (To be continued.) )
