Chapter 114: Living Space

Liu Bei's reason seems to be sufficient, that is, he has a large number of people in the public security and a small land, and the purpose of his trip is to fight for the living space of the Jingzhou scholars.

Thinking that the two generations of the Sun family, father and son, three people have fought with Liu Biao for many years, and the grievances they have formed cannot be released in one day, so after the battle of Chibi to Cao Ren's withdrawal from Jiangling, Liu Biao's former officials continued to come to Liu Bei, but no one paid attention to Zhou Yu, who was sitting in Nanjun and had deep pockets.

In the past, these former officials had enough seats in the eight counties of Jingzhou for them to sit on, but now Liu Bei only has one place for public security, where is there enough land and positions to take them in.

Liu Bei complained to Sun Quan about this hardship, just to reflect to Sun Quan that he was the core person who stabilized the situation in Jingzhou, and Zhou Yu, don't look at him to defeat Nanjun, but he couldn't do it.

"It is common sense that Liu Yuanjun puts benevolence and righteousness first, and it is common sense for the people of Jingzhou to compete for it, and as for the difficulty raised by Liu Yuanjun, it is indeed a difficult problem."

Sun Quan tapped his forehead lightly with his fingertips, making a look of embarrassment, pretending to be worried about this matter, but in fact, he was knowingly asking.

Liu Bei knew that Sun Quan was deliberately pretending to be stupid, although he was beating around the bush, but his mood was very eager, and since he said this, there was no need to be tactful, so he said: "Bei Yuye was anxious about this matter, and after thinking about it, I felt that there was only one way to solve this urgent need." ”

Sun Quan had probably guessed what Liu Bei was going to say next, but he couldn't stop others from saying it, so he had to pretend to be excited and asked, "I don't know what Liu Yuanjun has to do?" ”

Liu Bei grabbed the conversation and hurriedly said: "Bei means that if General Sun can temporarily transfer Nanjun to Beilai to supervise and guard, then Bei will have enough land and official positions to appease these Liu Jingsheng's old officials for the general, and second, he can also reject Cao thieves for the general in the north, and the general will be able to draw troops and horses to fight for Xu Yang in the east." In this way, our two families have joined forces, retreated to protect each other, and entered the east and west roads to encircle the Cao thief, in order to support the Han family, which is a strategy to kill one stone. ”

Liu Bei finally "cheekily" proposed the strategy of borrowing Nanjun, of course, the words are reasonable, the tone is sincere, but the heart is bottomless.

Sun Quan didn't rush to answer, but smiled slightly, picked up the cup and drank the tea.

Liu Bei hurriedly added: "Of course, although the two families are an alliance, but to capture most of this half of Jingzhou, the general contributed the most, this southern county, Bei is only a temporary loan, once the general settles the hearts of the people, and Bei also opens up new land, then it will naturally be returned to the general." ”

Liu Bei knew that Sun Quan was not such a generous lord, even if there were various reasons for borrowing Nanjun, it was still not possible to borrow it without paying it back.

Sun Quan still didn't respond after hearing this, but he suddenly laughed and said, "These things are easy to discuss, don't be in a hurry." Liu Yuanjun was tired all the way, and he should rest early, and then he went to accompany the envoy to enjoy the scenery of Wuhui. ”

Sun Quan was issuing an eviction order, and he did not refuse in person, which means that there was actually a hesitation in his heart, and Liu Bei was not in a hurry, so he got up and said: "Then there is General Lao Sun's hospitality, and I will go back to the pavilion first, and then talk to General Sun." ”

Here, when Liu Bei was just about to leave Sun Quan's military mansion, Fang Shao had already returned to the pavilion first.

Liu Bei is also a distinguished guest from afar, so Sun Quan deliberately cleaned up all the idle people in the hall to show his hospitality, and Nuoda had a building, just to entertain Liu Bei and his party.

Fang Shao was a little dizzy from drinking, and he wanted to go back quietly and sleep first, but he didn't expect that when he walked into the gate of the pavilion, he couldn't help but be startled.

I saw that in the courtyard, more than 30 red-clothed female soldiers stood in columns, all with cold faces and swords and axes in their hands. On the steps of the door, Sun Shangxiang sat sideways, playing with the sword in his hand.

"Why did she come here, and she made such a scary formation."

Fang Shao muttered in his heart, the wine also woke up for three minutes, slightly adjusted his clothes, and stepped forward with a smile: "It turned out to be Miss Sun, what a coincidence." ”

As soon as Sun Shangxiang saw Fang Shao's face, a trace of excitement flashed on her face, but she immediately returned to gloom, she stood up suddenly, walked up with the bright sword in her hand, and said coldly: "Yes, it's really a coincidence." Maybe this sword in my hand will be stabbed through you very coincidentally. ”

Fang Shao swallowed saliva in his throat, coughed lightly, and said with a smile: "Miss Sun is really good at laughing, I don't know if Miss has always been safe?" ”

"What do you say?"

Sun Shangxiang said and put the blade on Fang Shao's neck, rubbing it back and forth, only making Fang Shao's heart hairy, and secretly wondering: "I thought her temper had improved, but in less than half a month, she began to get nervous again, which is a bit bad." ”

Fang Shao trembled in his heart, but his demeanor was indifferent, and he said calmly: "Shao doesn't know where to offend Miss, so Miss treats her like this, if there is really a place to take the trade, it is also Shao's unintentional fault, and I hope Miss will forgive me." ”

Sun Shangxiang put the sword back in the sheath and no longer teased him, but said angrily with a straight face: "What are you pretending to be stupid, you didn't say goodbye first, and now the Dan disciples don't support me, and you still say that you didn't offend me, hmph, if I hadn't seen you teach me judo, I would have killed you with a sword." ”

Sun Shangxiang's trumped-up charges made Fang Shao both inexplicable and very unhappy, and he said: "I didn't say goodbye before, just because there was an urgent matter, and this Shao also explained." This time I accompanied my lord to meet General Sun, everything is for the important affairs of the country, Shao really can't find a reason why you must report to Miss in advance, Miss is to blame, Shao is afraid that he can't stand it. ”

"You-" Sun Shangxiang was refuted by Fang Shao's lukewarm defense, and was speechless for a while, angry and annoyed, so he could only stare at Fang Shao.

When the atmosphere was embarrassing, Liu Bei outside entered the pavilion under the escort of Zhao Yun, Liu Bei was also taken aback when he saw this formation, and Zhao Yun was extremely vigilant, and he was anxious to protect the lord left and right.

Fang Shao hurriedly rushed forward and explained, "Don't get me wrong, this is General Sun's sister, Miss Sun." ”

Liu Beifang saw clearly that the woman who was huffing was the "Ba Ji" mentioned by Fang Shao before, and when he looked closely, he really had a fierce look on her face, but he didn't know why she appeared here with a group of fierce female soldiers.

Liu Bei didn't have time to ask at the moment, so he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, and said with a faint smile: "It turned out to be Miss Sun, Liu Bei is polite." ”

"Humph!"

In the face of Liu Bei's politeness, Sun Shangxiang only glanced at him contemptuously, then turned over and got on the horse, and without saying a word, he took a group of female soldiers and left with a group of female soldiers.

Liu Bei was stunned, and his heart was displeased, so he said to Fang Shao: "Why did this girl surnamed Sun come to the pavilion?" ”

Fang Shao had already guessed that she was mostly coming for herself, but it was not easy to say it in front of Liu Bei, so she arranged: "Didn't Shao tell the lord before, when I was in Chaisang, I was forced to teach this Miss Sun to wrestle, and later because the lord was urgently called, I taught half of it without saying goodbye, this Miss Sun was angry, and most of the time today I came to Shaoxing to ask for guilt." It's just that the lord was touched by her, and I hope the lord will forgive me. ”

Liu Beixin thought it was true, and he didn't think it was strange, but comforted: "I see, it's hard for you, it's no wonder for you." ”

Watching the red tide go away like the wind, the fear in Liu Bei's expression gradually disappeared, and he muttered with emotion: "That Sun Quan is a person who hides a knife in his smile, but her sister is a disciple with an open fire cane, it seems that the family surnamed Sun is not a master to be messed with." ”
