Chapter 38: Jingxiang Fengyun (1)
"Brother Xian, this is my Jingxiang Naval Governor Cai Mao, over the years, Jiangdong has come to attack several times, if it weren't for the Metropolitan Governor to command the troops, I'm afraid that the nine counties of Jingxiang have already fallen into the hands of Jiangdong, Xuande is a famous general in the world, and he should be close to Deqi. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info"In the Assassin's Mansion, Liu Biao enthusiastically took Liu Bei to find Cai Mao.
"De Jue, this is the same clan of the Han family, after King Jing of Zhongshan, Liu Bei Liu Xuande, during the Battle of the Yellow Turban, he was already famous all over the world, and later he defeated Lu Bu in the Tiger Prison Pass The three brothers defeated Lu Bu, and in the future, they will stay in Jingxiang to help me rectify the soldiers, De Jue is also a famous general in the world, and he should be close to Xuande."
Sure enough, it's here to divide the military power!
Cai Mao secretly sneered in his heart, but he had a lovely smile on his face, and arched his hand to Liu Bei, no matter what, Liu Biao's brother-in-law's face, he didn't want to give it, but for Liu Bei's identity as the emperor's uncle, Cai Mao secretly disdained it in his heart.
Why?
Anyone who knows a little bit of royal history knows that this King Jing of Zhongshan has not had much success in his life, and he can make future generations remember, the biggest reason is that this product has super fertility, and he gave birth to one hundred and twenty-eight sons in his lifetime, and then gave birth to grandchildren and grandchildren, so many generations have been passed down, and you can pull a random surname Liu after King Jing of Zhongshan, and similarly, after King Jing of Zhongshan, it is also best to pretend.
Liu Bei's name, Cai Mao has naturally heard it, the ordinary people don't know, after hearing that it is the royal family, they will be in awe, but at their level, the royal thing is not a secret at all, after hearing that it is King Jing of Zhongshan, most of them will doubt its authenticity, Liu Biao, as a serious descendant of the royal family, how can he not know this, and now he is so enthusiastic that Liu Bei is solemnly introduced to the Jingxiang clan, firstly, because Liu Bei's identity has now been recognized by the royal family, The second and most important thing is that Liu Bei felt that his control over Jingzhou's military power was seriously insufficient, at this time there was such a nominal Tongzong, and more importantly, some capable people came to take refuge, and it was logical that Liu Biao used it to restrain some of the Cai family, which was getting stronger and stronger.
"General Dejun is polite." Liu Bei smiled and bowed his hand to Cai Mao, so many years of ups and downs, but also Liu Bei has trained a pair of fiery eyes, keenly aware of Liu Biao and Cai Mao's harmonious surface under the edge, at this moment he has just arrived in Jingzhou, has not yet established a firm foothold, at this moment, but it is not the time to have a stiff fight with Cai Mao, a famous family like Jingxiang, so he is quite humble.
"Hmm." Cai Mao replied without being salty, and said to Liu Biao: "Lord, the last general is not feeling well these days, so he will retire first." ”
After speaking, he ignored Liu Bei and left directly, freezing Liu Bei in place.
Behind Liu Bei, Guan Yu's pair of Danfeng eyes suddenly narrowed into a thin slit, staring coldly at Cai Mao's back, which made Cai Mao, who was walking back, shudder, and subconsciously turned his head to look, but saw a red-faced man staring at him coldly, which made Cai Mao suddenly break out in a cold sweat, pretending to be calm and no longer looking at Guan Yu, and strode away.
"Yun Chang, don't be impulsive." Liu Bei stretched out his hand and pressed it on Guan Yu's hand, secretly glad in his heart, fortunately he got Zhang Fei drunk in advance and didn't bring it over, otherwise something might have happened.
"Don't be surprised, don't be surprised, De Jue ...... Alas......" Liu Biao looked at Cai Mao's back, sighed leisurely, and didn't say much.
"Brother, don't blame General Deju, maybe there is some misunderstanding here." Liu Bei smiled.
Liu Biao nodded, didn't say anything more, just took Liu Bei to meet other Jingxiang celebrities, including Kuai Liang, who is now the chief secretary of Jingzhou, and some of Liu Biao's old Shanyang departments, among which many people showed a friendly attitude towards Liu Bei, mostly some of Liu Biao's old Shanyang departments or Jingxiang's small and medium-sized families, among which Yi and Ma Liang were the leaders.
Although among the four major families, the Cai family, the Kuai family and the Zhang family are not interested in Liu Bei, and the people of the Huang family are also in harmony with the mud and have a neutral attitude, but many small and medium-sized families have a good impression of Liu Bei.
"Big brother, why don't you let me go, if you are present, Cai Mao dares to despise the eldest brother so much, and he will definitely poke a transparent hole in his body!" The next day, Zhang Fei, who was awake, shouted loudly in dissatisfaction after learning what happened to Liu Bei.
"Yide, that's it, I don't dare to take you there!" Liu Bei looked at Zhang Fei with hatred, and said bitterly: "You and I have known each other since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and have intersected with each other in the past twenty years, with great ups and downs, and experienced countless winds and waves, have you ever been harshly criticized for your brother?" Now that I have finally gained a foothold in Jingxiang, it is easy to kill Cai Mao, but what about after killing him? You and I continue to wander the world? If so, when will it be successful? ”
In the end, Liu Bei couldn't help but feel a sour feeling in his heart, and his eyes were red.
"Okay, big brother is angry, I'll just avoid him in the future." Zhang Fei was also panicked, he was not afraid of heaven and earth, he was afraid that Liu Bei would shed tears, and at this moment, seeing that Liu Bei's eyes were red, he didn't dare to make any more trouble, so he comforted.
"It's not for my brother to blame you, it's just ...... Alas, Yide, if you can be sensible, my three brothers work together, why worry about the great cause? Liu Bei took Zhang Fei's hand and said bitterly, whipped Du You, lost Xuzhou drunk, and recently watched Zhao Zilong, a general, pass by himself, think about it carefully, the ups and downs of Liu Bei's life are almost all related to Zhang Fei to a greater or lesser extent.
"Yes, yes, yes." Zhang Fei hurriedly bowed his head and admitted his mistake, like a child who had done something wrong.
"You ......" Liu Bei looked at Zhang Fei and wanted to say something, but a young general outside the door walked in, bowed down and said, "Lord, Mr. Yi asks to see you." ”
"Uncle Zhi will take Mr. Yi to the hall first, and I will come later." When Liu Bei heard this, he hurriedly stopped scolding and said to the young general with a smile.
This young general's name is Chen Zhi, a native of Runan, who was Liu Bei's imperial uncle, and a general who was subdued in Xuchang, was loyal and brave, never abandoned Liu Bei, and was more proficient in military training, which was quite loved by Liu Bei.
"Whoa." Chen Zhi bowed down and said yes, turned to leave.
Liu Bei glanced at Zhang Fei, sighed lightly, straightened his clothes, touched his face again, and left Guan Yu here to appease Zhang Fei, and then walked towards the main hall.
"Xuande is courteous." In the main hall, Yi Yuan smiled and saluted Liu Bei.
"Mr. Jibo is polite." Liu Bei bowed slightly, and after returning the salute, he invited the Yi nationality to take a seat, and said with a smile: "When I first came to Jingzhou, many things still depend on Mr. Ji Bo. ”
"Xuande Gong is polite." Yi Ji hesitated for a moment, looked at Liu Bei and said, "I heard that Xuande Gong once competed with Lu Bu for Xuzhou, I don't know what Xuande Gong thinks of this person?" ”
"Lu Bu?" Liu Bei was slightly stunned, he didn't understand why he mentioned Lu Bu well, after thinking about it, Liu Bei said seriously: "There is a loss in the small section, but there is no damage in the big section." ”
This is a more pertinent evaluation, no matter what Lu Bu did before, but in the past two years, he has beaten the Xiongnu, subdued the Hetao, the Western Regions, and the cholera grassland, and these deeds have been enough to cover up Lu Bu's lack of the big festival.
Yi Ji smiled and said: "Xuande Gong can not be inferior to his personal feelings, and he is admired by Yi Yuan." ”
Liu Bei smiled and nodded, looked at Yi Yuan suspiciously, and said, "I don't know why Mr. Jibo mentioned this person?" ”
Lu Bu now sits in the northwest, dominates the side, and competes with Yuan Cao for the position of the overlord of the north, but now it should not affect Jing Xiang's side, but I don't know why he is mentioned?
"Xuande Gong doesn't know, now Yuan Cao Alliance, to discuss Lu Bu, Lu Bu has ordered the envoy to come to Jingxiang to lobby, hoping that the lord can contain Cao Cao, but the people led by Cai Mao and Kuai Yue think that Cao Cao is invincible, and Lu Bu is a reckless man, and he can't join forces with him, the lord is now also wavering, I don't know what to do, Xuande Gong and Lu Bu and Cao Cao have been in contact, so I want to ask Xuande Gong how he thinks about this matter." Yi Ji smiled.
A complicated color flashed in Liu Bei's eyes, Lu Bu, have you grown to this point, it took a long time to take a deep breath, think about this question seriously, and finally looked at Yi Yuan and said: "If you are ready to choose, promise him, the three-legged support in the north is a good thing for the elder brother, and now Yuan Cao joins forces to crusade against Lu Bu, if Lu Bu is destroyed, once Yuan Cao divides the victory and defeat, I am afraid that it will be when the northern army is in the city, if Lu Bu can block Yuan Cao from joining forces, for the elder brother, it will be beneficial and harmless." ”
After many years of fighting, although he has been defeated repeatedly, Liu Bei still has some skills in terms of strategic vision, and he does not rely on his subordinates to support him, otherwise a lord will not be able to do anything, so why should he create his own foundation?
A gleam flashed in Yi Yuan's eyes, and he nodded with a smile and said: "Lu Bu's envoy will arrive in Xiangyang in a few days, and if the lord asks Xuande Gong's opinion at that time, I hope that Xuande Gong can convince the lord." ”
"There are so many celebrities in Jingxiang, I'm afraid there is no need to say much." Liu Bei shook his head and smiled, but he didn't answer positively, this is undoubtedly something that offends people.
"I'm afraid not." Yi Yuan smiled bitterly and shook his head, it's not that no one can see it clearly, but even if he sees it clearly, he doesn't want to say that the Jingxiang family is not so much loyal to Liu Biao as it is loyal to himself, and the interests of the family are always the first.
Liu Bei smiled slightly, and did not continue to discuss this topic in depth, but looked at Yi Yuan and said, "But I don't know who Lu Bu sent this time?" ”
In Liu Bei's memory, there are not many people available under Lu Bu, Chen Gong is one, I heard that Jia Xu and Li Ru were found later, Lu Bu can have today's achievements, these three people can be said to be indispensable, it should be Chen Gong, right?
After all, among the three, Chen Gong's image is relatively positive.
"Xiliang celebrities, Yang Fu Yang Yishan." Yi Yuan smiled: "This person is famous in Xiliang. ”
Baume & Mercier?
Liu Bei suddenly chuckled in his heart, does this mean that Lu Bu has begun to be accepted by scholars? (To be continued.) )
