Chapter 175: Xiangyang Storm (5)
How so? is obviously singing praises for himself, why did he suddenly change his tone, but it turned out that he Liu Bei was not a person inside and out?
That's right, he Liu Bei does have ambitions for Jingzhou, but he can't take it out and publicize it in public?
Now, when these rumors are said, what was originally a good praise seems to have been praised too much, and the matter has changed from a good thing to a bad thing.
Originally, as long as the matter of seizing Jingzhou was under the voice of the masses, and then a group of civil and military officials of Jingzhou who were formerly Liu Biao went to Liu Biao to propose that at this moment, Jingzhou was swaying, and he Liu Biao was unable to guard Jingzhou, and he was unable to govern Jingzhou due to serious illness, so Jingzhou should be handed over to a truly virtuous person to preside over the overall situation of Jingzhou. And he, Liu Bei, is a real virtuous man, and handing over Jingzhou to him Liu Bei is a matter of conforming to the will of the people and heaven. With the support of a group of Jingzhou civil and military forces, even if Liu Biao is unwilling and unwilling, he can forcibly force the palace and force Liu Biao to abdicate and make way for Xian.
However, now that someone has widely publicized his Liu Bei's ambitions, it seems that he Liu Bei is not authentic, what about the benevolence and righteousness that he said? Your Liu Bei's benevolence and righteousness, is it just that you came here to seek the foundation of others? Liu Biao took you in when Liu Bei was the most difficult and had no way out, are you worthy of others if you do this now? Is it worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth?
At this moment, Liu Bei was really quite annoyed, annoyed that he didn't know who dared to harm his good deeds like this. If you wait for the whereabouts of the person who voted for you, first put forward the idea of letting Liu Biao give Jingzhou to himself, then such a rumor will appear. Liu Bei didn't think there was anything, because the matter was already decided, and he would really control Jingzhou. If there are any rumors that are unfavorable to him, he has a way to suppress them, but now, he is only presiding over the overall situation of Jingzhou on behalf of Liu Biao, and he is not the real lord of Jingzhou.
"Lord, something bad is wrong!"
Liu Ba hurriedly ran to see Liu Bei, and said with an extremely worried expression: "Lord." Who the hell is framing you? Now that there are such rumors from the outside world, these rumors will definitely reach Liu Biao's ears. In case Liu Biao also thinks that the lord wants to steal his inheritance, he may be unfavorable to you, the lord. ”
"I know that Liu Biao wants to be unfavorable to me, but. I'm not worried about Liu Biao going to deal with me right now. But it was widely publicized like this, which made me fall into a passive situation all of a sudden, so that even if we succeeded, my reputation in the future will not be good. In Liu Bei's heart, he was really not worried about how Liu Biao would be unfavorable to him, but he considered that after he plotted to seize Jingzhou in the future, his reputation would not be good.
This may be called being a bitch and wanting to set up a torii. Do things, and want to take advantage of the benefits. But a good name is also wanted.
"Oh? Lord, aren't you worried that Liu Biao will be bad for you? Why is that? Liu Mou felt that now that such a thing has happened, in the entire Xiangyang City, there are people talking about the lord you want to replace Liu Biao as the lord of Jingzhou, this matter, I think it must have already reached Liu Biao's ears, no matter what, I think the lord you still have to go to see Liu Biao now, explain to him, lest Liu Biao take action. Liu Ba saw that Liu Bei was not very worried that Liu Biao would be unfavorable to him, and he felt a little strange, but he still persuaded Liu Bei.
"Well, it's necessary to see Liu Biao, okay, I'll go now." Liu Bei also knew at this moment that the sooner he explained to Liu Biao, the better, if Liu Biao really thought that he had made it happen this time, and the purpose was to give Jingzhou to him, it would not be very good. After all, now Xiangyang is still in the hands of Liu Biao, although Liu Bei seems to have obtained a lot of Jingzhou's civil and military "surrender", but the generals who really control Jingzhou's military power, Liu Bei has not yet done public relations for the time being, and has not persuaded those generals to stand on his side.
In fact, although Liu Bei was a little anxious about whether he could win Jingzhou and become the lord of Jingzhou, he couldn't see the shape clearly. However, when it comes to dealing with things locally, Liu Bei is not the kind of person who wants to fight a battle that he is not sure of.
Strictly speaking, Liu Bei is indeed a very cautious and steady person, if it is not for the plan, he would rather endure it all the time.
The reason why Liu Bei dared to seize Liu Biao's Jingzhou was that he also had his own plans and his own actions.
Otherwise, Liu Bei would not be so brainless, and he dared to go out and act under the condition that Xiangyang Ming knew that he was under Liu Biao's surveillance, and he dared to persuade those Liu Biao's subordinates to return to support him.
Well, some things, in fact, are really not secrets when they are really said, and they can be seen through at a glance.
How could Liu Bei not see that Liu Biao's important ministers like Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue could submit to him Liu Bei lightly and serve him Liu Bei? In the final analysis, Liu Bei is also a little self-aware, he knows, what virtue does he have now, how can he let an important minister of Jingzhou like the Kuai family brothers work for him? If Liu Bei wasn't a little sure, Liu Bei wouldn't have taken such a risk.
You must know that he is tantamount to moving under Liu Biao's nose, openly digging into Liu Biao's corner, looking very brainless. How could Liu Bei really be so brainless?
In fact, Liu Bei had been carrying out his own plan since he first decided to agree to Liu Biao and came to Xiangyang, and he thought it was a plan that would allow him to turn defeat into victory.
What is this plan? That is, from Liu Biao's matter, Liu Bei naturally thought of his situation when he was in Xuzhou. How similar is the current situation to the situation in Xuzhou at that time? It just so happened that Liu Biao came to invite him Liu Bei to Jingzhou in the name of being sick. In this way, isn't it the same as when Tao Qian in Xuzhou was sick all the time?
Liu Bei immediately thought that as long as he let Tao Qian be ill like he did when he was in Xuzhou, let Liu Biao also be ill, and even, if necessary, let Liu Biao die of illness like Tao Qian, then Jingzhou would naturally fall into his hands Liu Bei.
Therefore, Liu Bei's biggest reason now is that he is ready, as long as Liu Biao really wants to be unfavorable to him, he can take the first step to make Liu Biao really sick and never get up again.
It is precisely because Liu Bei already has such a plan, so he is not too worried about whether Liu Biao will be unfavorable to him, nor is he too worried about whether those Jingzhou civil and military forces who have now served him in the clear sense are sincere, because, when Liu Biao is seriously ill and goes west, without Liu Biao, then even those Jingzhou civil and military who are not sincerely surrendered to him Liu Bei, they have no choice, so they can only fake and do it, so they will recognize him Liu Bei as the master, and work for him Liu Bei from now on.
This, no one knows for the time being, Liu Biaoxiàn is really seriously ill in bed, but it is actually Liu Bei's hands and feet. (To be continued......)
