As soon as he heard Tao Ying say that he wanted to return to Pi, Zhang Fei, who had not spoken for a long time, also stood up and shouted: "It should be like this!" ”

After Zhang Fei finished speaking, Xiapi became the target of everyone again, Tao Ying thought about it and said ruthlessly: "Okay, I will return Xiapi to Liu Taishou." But I will definitely not return Xiapi City, and Xiapi is the barrier of my Pengcheng country. ”

As soon as Tao Ying relented, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. I thought that Tao Ying would always occupy Xiapi and not let go! In fact, Tao Ying also thought about it carefully, two years later, Lu Bu would lead the troops to the east, at that time Tao Qian had died, who knows who it would be?

Now because of Tao Qian's presence, everyone still has a leader, although they are each rejected, but they still have their own scruples.

But Tao Qian will die in December this year, and no one will care about them anymore. Once Sun Qian and others support Liu Bei as the assassin, Liu Bei will use troops against him, not to mention that when Lu Bu arrives, the hungry wolf and the tiger will be together, and Xuzhou will be really lively at that time. So he must prepare early, Tao Ying knows that his ability is not as good as Lu Bu or Liu Bei, but his only advantage is that he can know history and can quickly snatch talents that have not yet been tapped!

"If the prince returns to Piguo, it is really where righteousness lies!"

Everyone began to compliment Tao Yinglai again, and Tao Ying also laughed with him, Xiapi will be taken away by Lu Bu sooner or later, he will be less, and Lu Bu can't keep it when he comes, so it's better to throw it to them. But after Tao Ying looked at the excited crowd, he put forward another condition.

This condition makes everyone a little unsure of how to answer.

"In addition to Xiapi City, I keep it as the border city of Pengcheng State, and the three counties of Nanhuaipu to Suiling need to be assigned to Guangling County, and Xiaopei is too close to my Pengcheng, so it should also be assigned to Pengcheng!"

Tao Ying finished mentioning the conditions, everyone fell into a silence again, Tao Ying didn't know what they were still considering, he just took them a little pei, and spit out nearly ten counties for them, he was willing to do such a deal!

Seeing that everyone was hesitant, Tao Ying said again: "Since everyone is unwilling, I will talk about this matter later......

Next to him, Liu Bei said with a smile: "What the son said is very good, since the son has a heart, why don't you become a complete son?" "After all, Liu Bei is a person who takes care of the overall situation, what's more, you don't want it now, Tao Ying will go to Pengcheng, and if you want to go down to Pi Kingdom when the time comes, then you have to meet each other!

Liu Bei asked for his life, but Tao Qian didn't want Tao Ying to make too many enemies, so he nodded and agreed. After agreeing, Tao Qian awarded Liu Bei the seal of the Pi State and asked him to lead the troops to be stationed in the new Xia Pi State. At this time, the Xia Pi Kingdom has no Xia Pi City, which is a little weird. Therefore, Tao Qian prepared to report to the Han Emperor again, renamed the new Xiapi Kingdom as Xiaqiu Kingdom, and moved the administrative office to Xiaqiu.

Originally, a celebration banquet turned into a disputed land-grabbing banquet, Cao Bao was hoping that Liu Bei would leave Donghai County as soon as possible, so he also raised his hands in agreement, and many people could only follow the stream.

After dividing the land, Tao Ying wrote a letter of guarantee and left the Thorn Mansion, and then wandered around Tan County. In order to find the young Zhuge Liang, Tao Ying asked the painter to post the portrait of Zhuge Xuan described by Zhuge Jin in Mantan County at any cost.

You must know that Tao Ying's paper has begun to become popular in the East China Sea, light and easy to carry, and a piece of paper can only be bought for one or two pieces of silver!

In order to find Zhuge Liang, Tao Ying was stunned and wasted more than fifty taels of silver! More than fifty taels of silver, which is enough for a family to save money for a lifetime.

From the time the notice was posted until the evening, there was still no news about Zhuge Xuan in the inn where Tao Ying lived. This made Tao Ying think that Zhuge Xuan had led Zhuge Liang to Jingzhou, or to Yangzhou. After staying in the inn for two days, he still didn't find any news of Zhuge Xuan, and the soldiers outside the city came with news that Cao Cao's two sons had arrived in Shiting Town.

Counting the days, it seemed that it was time to go back to Pengcheng, so Tao Ying had no choice but to go to Tao Qian to say goodbye, and then lead the troops out of the city. Liu Bei's brothers also led troops to send each other, although Zhang Fei hated Tao Ying a little, but Tao Ying won several battles, which Zhang Fei still respected him in his heart, not to mention that today Tao Ying gave other cities in Xiapi to Liu Bei to settle down.

All the way to the edge of the city, Tao Ying said to Liu Beiji: "General Liu, say goodbye, General Liu will be stationed in Xiaqiu in the future, I will guard Pengcheng, we are all neighbors, we must come to Pengcheng more often!" ”

Liu Bei also replied: "That's that, I'm afraid that I will disturb the son when the time comes!" ”

The two of them talked and laughed, Liu Bei sent Tao Ying five miles away, and Liu Bei left when he arrived at the camp outside Tao Ying. Even after leaving Tan County, there were still a lot of people around them, but when they were almost ten miles out of the city, most of the people dispersed. After the war, the reconstruction work was very heavy, not only did they have to farm the land, but also repaired the city walls and built houses, so most of them chose to send only ten miles.

Out of Tan County to Shiting Town, less than twenty miles away, there was still a peasant in tattered clothes following Tao Ying's army. After the soldiers found out that the man was sneaky, they arrested him, but the man quibbled that he was Zhuge Jin's fellow countryman, and he had news from Zhuge Xuan to tell Zhuge Jin!

The soldiers knew that Zhuge Jin was Tao Ying's new general, and Tao Ying had been accompanied by him in and out these days. Therefore, knowing that this person could not afford to offend, the soldier escorted the person to Tao Ying. Tao Ying was riding on a horse at this time discussing some things with Zhuge Jin, because he now knew that he was the time to employ people, and he had so many county seats, but there were not many talents available.

The soldier quickly reported that he had caught a person who claimed to have seen Zhuge Xuan, Zhuge Jin's eyes lit up, and Tao Ying hurriedly asked people to bring him over. After a while, the soldiers brought the farmer who had followed, and the farmer kowtowed when he saw Tao Ying kneeling on the ground.

The farmer was only forty years old, but he was skinny and his hair was gray. The farmer knelt on the ground and kowtowed, saying, "I am not a spy, I am not a spy, I have seen the man you put on the portrait, I have seen him!" ”

Tao Ying jumped off his horse, picked up the old peasant, and then turned his head to let the soldier come over with a steamed bun. After a while, the soldier brought a steamed bun, which had just been heated at noon, so there was still some residual warmth. The old farmer took the steamed bun and devoured it, looking like he had been hungry for a long time.

"Where have you seen him? Let's talk about it, if I can really find Zhuge Xuan, I still have a big reward! ”

Tao Ying seemed to be desperate, but suddenly heard where Zhuge Xuan was, and a new sense of hope filled his heart. The old farmer choked on steamed buns too quickly, and after taking a sip of water, he slowed down for a while before saying: "I have seen the old man Zhuge , my family fled to Tan County with him, there are too many soldiers from Yanzhou, and the gate was closed as soon as we entered the city." I hid in the city with Old Man Zhuge and his three children for a living. ”

He started from scratch like telling a story, but Tao Ying was a little impatient, he wanted to know where Zhuge Xuan was now, and whether the Zhuge Liang brothers were starved to death!
