I didn't know that Cai Mao had already gone to see Mrs. Cai, and when she asked, Liu Biao sighed and said, "What do you know about a woman?" The Cao family's army was just outside the city, and they actually came to ask me who had such courage. ”

"Isn't it because of this matter?" Mrs. Cai asked.

"What else can upset me but this?" Liu Biao said: "Cao Zirong put forward a few conditions, if I don't agree, he will order the siege of the city." With the strength of the Xiangyang army, you can't hold it for too long, at most three or two months, and you will be captured by the Cao family. ”

Mrs. Cai stepped forward and sat next to Liu Biao, took his arm and said, "If Xiangyang City is broken, I am willing to die with my husband......

"It's rare that you have this mind." Stroking her back, Liu Biao said: "It seems that there is only this road to go, what do you want to eat before the city breaks, and where do you want to go in Xiangyang City, just go......"

"Now that you're dying, what do you have to eat and go?" Snuggling up to Liu Biao, Mrs. Cai said, "Can you tell me, what does Cao Zirong want?" ”

"He wants Liu Xuande's head...... "Things have come to this point, Liu Biao no longer hides it, and said to Mrs. Cai: "But Liu Xuande's head, where can I get him ......?"

"I heard that Liu Xuande was in Xinye, and my husband called him to Xiangyang and cut off his head and gave it to Cao Zirong." Mrs. Cai said: "The Cao army should come to Jingzhou precisely because Liu Xuande sent troops to crusade against the Cao family, as long as he is killed, Jingzhou will be able to get stability, what is the husband still hesitating?" ”

"Saying that you are a woman and people don't understand anything, you still like to mix these things." Liu Biao said: "If Liu Xuande's head is easy to take, I still need you to say it?" ”

"Why is it not easy to take?" Mrs. Cai asked, pretending not to understand at all.

"Cao Jun came to Jingzhou, and now he is outside Xiangyang City, I had asked Liu Xuande to ask for help before, but he didn't send a single soldier." Liu Biao said: "What's more, if I asked him to come in person, how could he be so stupid and run to his death?" ”

"If he refused to come, the husband arrested him." Mrs. Cai said: "Attacking Xinye is much better than dealing with the Cao family's army. ”

"That's true." Liu Biao said: "But there are also some defenders in Xinye City, and it will take a few months to forcibly attack, and once I send out the soldiers and horses, it will be easier for the Cao family to break through Xiangyang." No matter what I decide, this time I was dead. ”

Mrs. Cai lowered her eyelids, and her face also showed a lonely look.

After a while, she raised her head again and asked Liu Biao, "Didn't the husband say that Cao Zirong has other conditions?" ”

"There's another one." Liu Biao said: "If you want him to withdraw the army, you have to give him a million copper coins......

"Since there are such conditions, things will be easy to do." Mrs. Cai said: "Anything that can be solved with money is not a big deal. ”

"Not a big deal?" Liu Biao looked at her in surprise: "Do you know how much a million hanging copper coins are?" If it is given to Cao Zirong, Jingzhou will no longer have money and food to use soldiers in the future. ”

"If Jingzhou is gone, where will the husband use his troops?" Mrs. Cai planned Liu Biao.

Stunned by her question, Liu Biao looked at Mrs. Cai and didn't speak for a long time.

What Mrs. Cai said is really right, if there is no Jingzhou, let alone a million hanging money, he can't keep it at all, even if he does, where will he use troops?

"What do you mean......" Liu Biao asked in amazement.

"Give it to him." Mrs. Cai said: "It's just that when my husband saw Cao Zirong, he wanted to cry to him for poverty, the more pitiful he said, the better, maybe Cao Zirong's heart will be soft, and he can ask for less." ”

"A woman's view, a woman's view." Liu Biao said: "If he is willing to be less, he will ask for so many ......."

"How do you know if you don't try?" Mrs. Cai said: "If I were a man, I would be willing to take a trip for my husband." ”

"There are major events in the world, how can there be a woman stirring up." Liu Biao said: "I will go to see Cao Zirong early tomorrow morning, you still stay in the ...... of Zhengwei"

"Husband......" Mrs. Cai said: "Although I am a woman, I also have the mind to share my husband's worries, I will accompany my husband early tomorrow morning, maybe I can still have something to say when I see Cao Zirong." ”

"What can you say to him?" Liu Biao said: "Tomorrow I plan to let De Jue and Huang Hansheng accompany me, you still don't want to cause me trouble." ”

"My husband doesn't know." Mrs. Cai said: "There are some things that work better for women to speak than for men. ”

"I've never heard of anything that a woman can talk more effectively than a man." Liu Biao shook his head and said, "It's a great creation that you don't cause trouble for me......"

"I implore my husband to allow the concubine to worry." Liu Biao refused to take her, Mrs. Cai got up and knelt down in front of him, and said sincerely: "As long as my husband is willing to take me, I will definitely not regret it." ”

Looking at Mrs. Cai, Liu Biao sighed and said, "I also spoiled you, follow you, take you tomorrow, don't talk too much." ”

"I have taken my husband's teachings to heart." Liu Biao was relieved, and Mrs. Cai hurriedly responded.

For Liu Biao, the night when Cao Shuo arrived outside Xiangyang City was destined to be a sleepless night.

The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, Liu Biao got up.

Walking out of the bedroom, he asked the guard, "Has Cai Deqi come?" ”

"Back to the lord, General Cai hasn't come yet." The guard replied.

"I know that there is something to do today, but it is not so late." Liu Biao said: "Send someone to find him." ”

The guard answered, and was about to arrange for someone to invite Cai Mao, but saw Cai Mao walking along the bluestone path.

Seeing Liu Biao from afar, Cai Mao quickened his pace.

As soon as he arrived, Liu Biao asked with a cold face: "I know that I am going to see Cao Zirong in a while, why did you come so late?" ”

"Jingsheng Gong." Cai Mao said: "It's just dawn, Cao Zirong must not have gone yet, and it's useless if we go too early and can't see him." ”

"Are you all ready?" Knowing that what Cai Mao said was reasonable, in order to hide the anxiety in his heart, Liu Biao diverted the topic.

"According to Jingsheng Gong, accompanied by Huang Hansheng and the guards." Cai Mao asked: "Why didn't Jing Shenggong take Wen Ping or others with him when he went out this time, but instead used a general from Changsha?" ”

"Huang Hansheng is old, and taking him with him will not make Cao Zirong suspicious." Liu Biao said: "The Cao family is now in the city, and I don't want to make Cao Shuo unhappy because of the escorts with me." ”

"Jing Shenggong thinks about it." Cai Mao said: "Last night, my sister told me that she would go to ...... with her today."

"Find someone to call her." Speaking of Mrs. Cai, Liu Biao said: "Your sister really should be disciplined!" ”
