Tao Qian smiled and said: "Xuande, the old man has two children under his knees, and it is not enough to take on the big responsibility, the old man is old and frail, he can't protect the Son of Heaven, and he can't bless the people, it's really not enough to take on the responsibility of the state pastor, and Xuande is the emperor's family, with both ability and political integrity, just in the prime of life, I hope that Xuande will work hard and receive Xuzhou, the old man is willing to be an idle cloud and wild crane, idle at home, and hope that Xuande will not shirk!" Tao Qian said that later, tears fell, which made Liu Bei sigh, Master Tao really deserves to be an official for many years, this quality really makes Bei embarrassed.

"If Master Tao is like this, Liu Bei will leave here without face!" Liu Bei said and pretended to leave.

Tao Qian hurriedly stopped, "Xuande, if you leave and Cao Jun comes again, what will I do with the people of Xuzhou?" Can Xuande bear to let the people suffer from the disaster of war for no reason? ”

The two of you pushed me to give in, Liu Bei didn't agree, and in the end he was forced to have no choice, so he promised Tao Qian to stay in Xuzhou for a while longer, so as not to come back to Cao Jun. When the banquet was over, Chen Deng and Mi Fang found Liu Bei at the same time and wanted to invite Liu Bei to their home as a guest. Six was naturally overjoyed and agreed.

During this period, only Cao Bao looked at Liu Bei and sneered, with your identity, you are also worthy of being the lord of Xuzhou.

Han Jin, who was far away in Chang'an, naturally didn't know everything that happened in Xuzhou, and thought that the Mi family was already in his hands, but he didn't know that Mi Fang on the other side had extended an olive branch to Liu Bei.

In the afternoon of the same day, Mi Fang invited Liu Bei to a banquet, Liu Bei was overjoyed and happily went.

"Xuande Gong, Taozhou Mu is full of hospitality, how can Liu Yuanjun not accept it." Mi Fang couldn't help but ask.

Liu Bei secretly thought, this person will definitely not invite me for no reason, I am afraid that these words are mostly temptations, but the Mi family is one of the three major families in Xuzhou, if they can get their support, there will be money and food, in this case, this person should be careful to deal with it. Thinking of this, Liu Bei deliberately sighed and said: "Taozhou Mu has a heart of love for the people, famous far and wide, although there is Cao Ying's offense, but it will be able to turn evil into good fortune, if I take Xuzhou at this time, wouldn't it be to take advantage of the danger of people and fall into the well." What do the people of the world think of me Liu Bei, not to mention, I came out of Xuzhou, there is no root and no foundation, the people don't know me, the soldiers of the three armies do not obey me, and the families in the city do not support it, how can I sit firmly in that position, at this time it is an eventful season, and Taozhou Mu is needed to guard it. I, Liu Bei, am willing to attach myself to the rear and help him. ”

The implication is that Tao Qian has a high reputation in Xuzhou, even if I want to be the state pastor, I don't want to fall into the infamy of taking advantage of people's dangers, and secondly, no one supports me, which is not only to show my heart, but also to test Mi Fang. Don't look at Mi Fang in front of Han Jin well-behaved and clever, compared to Liu Bei, people are also children of wealthy families, and in the face of Liu Bei, a grass-headed hero, the pride of the rich generation still comes out.

After figuring out the joints, Mi Fang laughed lightly: "Liu Zhijun said that he laughed, so that Jun is benevolent and righteous, and the world knows it, but now Xuzhou is facing a military disaster, even if Taozhou Mu has the heart, he is powerless to defend, in my opinion, Taozhou Mu is sincerely trusting Xuzhou, as long as Liu Zhijun accepts Xuzhou, in this way, Cao Ying will have no reason to attack Xuzhou, and the danger of Xuzhou can be lifted." To make Jun benevolent and righteous, do you want to see the people of Xuzhou die at the hands of Cao Ying! As long as the envoy is willing, my Mi family will definitely support the envoy and follow the work of dogs and horses. ”

If Mi Zhu heard Mi Fang's words, he would undoubtedly be angry, and with such a few simple words, the entire Mi family would be sold to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei was really happy in his heart, but he also knew that the Mi family was not Mi Fang's master, so he hid the joy in his heart, got up and saluted: "When I first came to Xuzhou, I heard people say that Xuzhou Mi Gongzi is sloppy and righteous, and there is the wind of Meng Chang. Thanks to the second son, Liu Bei is grateful, come, Liu Bei respects the second son for a cup. ”

Everyone loves to listen to flattery, Mi Fang is naturally no exception, Liu Bei collapsed a few words, and his heart was full of joy, but there seemed to be rumors in Xuzhou that Mi Gongzi was sloppy and righteous, and there was a style of Meng Taste, but Mi Gongzi refers to Mi Zhu and not Mi Fang, but Liu Bei said vaguely, and Mi Fang should only say himself. Seeing Liu Bei drink all the wine in one go, he laughed and dried the wine in his hand.

The two gossiped again, Mi Fang asked the next person to invite Mi Huan to come over to toast, Mi Huan was checking the accounts, Mi Zhu went, Mi Fang didn't care about anything, and everything at home fell on her. Yesterday, Mi Fang said that she was inviting Liu Bei to a banquet, but she didn't really take it to heart, and when she heard the invitation from the next person, she couldn't help but feel angry, this second brother is really true. I was full of panic, and I had nothing to do. I couldn't get through it, so I had to go to the front hall.

Liu Bei was drinking happily, and suddenly saw a stunning beauty walking out, and he was stunned, this woman is so beautiful! Seeing him look like this, Mi Fang was secretly proud in his heart, only he knew how lethal his sister was to men.

"Envoy, this is the sister Huan'er, Huan'er, this is the Liu Envoy I often tell you, don't you admire Liu Envoy Jun and never forget it, I haven't seen Liu Envoy Jun since I saw it today."

Mi Fang said and winked at Mi Huan, signaling her to learn to be obedient, Mi Huan glared at him angrily, nonsense, when did I admire him and never forget it, but he naturally couldn't say these words. With a chuckle, Ying Ying stepped forward and saluted, "I've seen Liu Yuanjun!" The voice was as crisp as a yellow warbler, and it was extremely comfortable to listen to in Liu Bei's ears.

"Miss is so polite!" Liu Bei hurriedly returned the salute.

Mi Huan secretly looked at Liu Bei, and saw that he was majestic and majestic, and his appearance was good, and he was really manly. I nodded in my heart, it's not too bad, but I don't know who is better than which general! Mi Huan, who had no reason, remembered Han Jin again and compared the two.

Mihuan didn't stay long after the toast, and the thank you gift hurriedly retreated.

Second, no one expected that Tao Qian would fall ill, and this illness seemed to be very serious, and Liu Bei should send it once, Tao Qian handed over the big seal to Liu Bei with tears before he died. Under the persuasion of Chen Deng, Mifang and others, Liu Bei accepted.

The moment he caught the big seal, Liu Bei felt that his heart was trembling, his dream for many years, the princes of one party had finally come true, with this territory, he could justifiably participate in the game of dominating the world. At this moment, Liu Mang had a faint urge to cry. For many years, I have hung my head on my belt and traveled north and south for this day.

In the afternoon of the same day, Liu Bei officially accepted the post of pastor of Xuzhou, and when Mi Zhu arrived, Xuzhou was already surnamed Liu. What made him even more angry was that Mi Fang actually made his own decision and married his sister Mi Huan to Liu Bei.

Mi family, in the study.

Mi Zhu lest be gloomy and terrible, Mi Huan sat next to him and cried softly, Mi Fang stood next to him with a pale face, his body trembled, his parents died when he was a child, he was raised by Mi Zhu, the eldest brother was like a father, and he was very afraid of his brother in his eyes.

"You are not small, but you dare to mention that your brother and sister are in charge, bastard things, Huan'er is a lifelong event, are you a child's play? He Liu Bei is just a grass-headed common man, how can he be worthy of Huan'er's husband? Mi Zhu was furious, glaring at Mi Fang, and her eyes were about to fall out. He really didn't expect his younger brother to be so bold, he sold his sister on a trip, and he originally wanted to marry Huan'er to the general, but now Zihuan'er's underworld is ruined.

Mi Fang blushed and said: "Big brother Liu Zhijun is a benevolent gentleman, a famous hero in the world, now in Xuzhou, it is the time to show his ambitions, as long as we help him gain a firm foothold, he will definitely reuse my Mi family, and at that time, the power of our Mi family will rise sharply, overpowering his two families in one fell swoop." ”

As soon as Mi Fang finished speaking, Mi Huan suddenly sobbed, glared at her beautiful eyes and said, "Do you only have the interests of the family in your eyes and don't care about my happiness?" ”

Mi Fang smiled bitterly and said: "Huan'er, you will eventually get married, the words of your parents, Liu Yuanjun is so heroic, and he is a descendant of the Han family, marrying him will not humiliate you, wouldn't this be the best of both worlds." Could it be that my brother will still harm you? ”

Mi Fang's words came out. Mi Zhu and Mi Huan have nothing to say, from the perspective of family interests, the Mi family climbed to Xuzhou Mu, of course, it is very beneficial to themselves. However, he has already promised the general, how can he go back on his word, not to mention that the general's 50,000 troops are behind him, and he will arrive in a few days.

Thinking of this, he sighed and said, "Second brother, no matter what, what you did in this matter is too reckless. Do you know that when I went to Chang'an this time, I have promised the general that my family will move to Chang'an, if Huan'er marries Liu Bei, I will not be alone and bullied by others when I go. ”

"Big brother...... Did you promise the general? This...... How can this be, most of my family's business is in Xuzhou! Moved over, what to do with these family businesses? Mi Fang looked surprised.

Mihuan was overjoyed, the eldest brother is going to move to Chang'an, so I don't have to marry Liu Bei, maybe I can meet the general, hum, I want to see what kind of character the legendary great general is, and that Diao Chan, my brother praised her as if there was nothing in the sky and on the earth, I don't believe that she will be more beautiful than me. The power of the hand girl's mind is elusive, and at this moment, she actually remembered to compare her beauty with others.

Mi Zhu nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, although the business will suffer some losses, but Chang'an is rich and rich, the transportation is convenient, extending in all directions, there are Western Regions countries in the west, Jingzhou Shuzhong in the south, and Luoyang in the east. More importantly, the general is a brother, the general has the righteousness of the court, coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, he said that the soldiers went out of the customs to sweep the world, we are the founding of the country, and that is when my Mi family made a fortune. Hmph, compared with the general, Liu Bei is just an upstart at most, and there is no one under him, and Guan Yu will be alone, how can such a person achieve great things. ”

After he said that, his voice gradually became smaller, and his expression was already showing yearning.

When Mi Fang heard this, she still didn't understand that she was determined to go with the general! "Fight, but that day you also know that I offended the general, I'm afraid that we will be ...... after we pass"

Codeword waved his hand to interrupt Mi Fang's words, squinted at him and said: "You really think of yourself, the general is busy with state affairs, then he will think of this little thing, besides, it's such a trivial matter, how can I blame you with the measure of the general, okay, this matter is so decided, you help me and me deal with this side of the matter these days, sort out the things that can be taken away as soon as possible, sell everything that can't be taken away, and then move the family to Chang'an." Remember not to be too public, as for Liu Bei here, for his brother to say in person, if he is good to speak, it is fine, if he is not good to speak, hum, the general tens of thousands of soldiers are about to come to the city, and he will not be afraid of him. ”

He knew that the purpose of the general's sending troops here was ostensibly to rescue the soldiers, but in fact, he was here to escort the Mi family to relocate, so as not to meet Zhang Yan's kind of goods, so he said this very imposingly.

Second, the Mi family was in a hurry, but Han Jin was living his life leisurely at this time. He took Dian Wei and several knights in civilian clothes and walked towards the palace. Although Wang Yun died, he was nominally a loyal minister killed by Lu Bu, so Han Jin did not take back the Wang family's mansion, and in the blink of an eye, Diao Chan had been home for more than a month, and he would return in a few days, but this month, there was no news of the fart, and now he suddenly remembered this beauty.

Originally, Dian Wei was going to pick it up, but Han Jin was afraid that it would be insincere, so he personally dispatched. Compared with before, the street is becoming more and more prosperous, the development of Chang'an is a change, Han Jin proposed the change he also forcibly implemented, and it is more convenient for businessmen, so the surrounding businessmen have close contacts, Han Jin has reason to believe that in the next three years, he can build a new Chang'an, so as to drive the economy of Yongliang and create his own business kingdom. When the time comes, it will swallow up the world in one fell swoop.

A few people stopped and walked, and they arrived in front of the palace after about two or three teas.

The gate of the palace was tightly closed, and the phenomenon of flowing water like a dragon in the face of shame and shame was extremely bleak in front of the door, seeing this, Han Jin suddenly gave birth to a feeling of rabbit death and fox sadness, people are dying in danger, if I die one day, I am afraid that the front of the door is even more indifferent than here! He knew that he had only one way to go to the dark now, and there was no chance of turning back.

With a wry smile, he ordered someone to come forward and knock on the door. It was an old family member who opened the door, the moment he saw Han Jin's forehead, his heart was shocked, and then a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes, how did his master die, others don't know, this big housekeeper is clear, the Wang family Since Wang Yun's death, Mrs. Wang sent her two sons to her hometown in Taiyuan, Bingzhou, in order to avoid trouble, and dismissed part of the family, leaving only a few cronies in the house.

The Wang family is a big family, Wang Yun died It stands to reason that there should be a big funeral, but Mrs. Wang tried her best to stop it, and dealt with the zombies in a low-key manner, despite this, it is still the period of mourning, but she is lying on the bed at this time, how many days of deep thinking have made him haggard, so that he fell ill on the bed, and the sable cicada next to the bed fed the old woman the medicine one by one.

After eating a few bites, Mrs. Wang couldn't eat anymore, shook her head and said, "Cicada, don't drink it, this medicine won't get better after a few days, you are also tired, go down and rest for a while!" ”

Diao Chan looked at Mrs. Wang's pale face, remembered that she was good to herself in the past, and she cried if she didn't feel it, Mother, I'm not tired, I still have a few mouthfuls of medicine to eat, my body is better early, and Cicada is also relieved. ”

Mrs. Wang smiled bitterly, shook her head, touched Diao Chan's face and sighed: "Cicada, I have wronged you, it's just that the general wants you to return early, and you have been delayed for a while, I'm afraid that he will deliberately find fault." ”

Diao Chan was silent for a while, put down the bowl to help Mrs. Wang wipe the corners of her mouth, and suddenly asked: "Mother, why does Cicada think that you don't hate the general's forehead so much, you ...... Don't want revenge? ”

Mrs. Wang's heart was sad, revenge, hate, am I qualified, I hate to eat his flesh raw, and pluck his skin alive.

"Cicada, is it useful to hate, my mother also understands, when the master goes, let you assassinate the general, let it go, these men are like this, for the so-called righteousness of the court, fighting for power and profit, we as women can only let them call and drink, I also persuaded the master to let go, but he just didn't listen, now it's bad Lu Bu's poisonous hands, what can we do, even if you kill the general, his subordinates and family are hungry and can't spare you and me, and the master will not be resurrected, so why bother with more troubles. As a mother, I just want you to live well and maintain this family, and I am satisfied. Other...... I'm about to be grounded, what do I hope for? ”

Seeing that Mrs. Wang was sad, Diao Chan bit her lip, but she could only be speechless. The heart is overturned, the master's lifelong wish is to let himself kill the general, but now the master is dead, even if I kill the general, what can I do, but I am deeply nurtured by the lord, if I can't even meet this request, what face do I have to stay in the palace?

"Madame, Mademoiselle, the general asks to see you!" The two were silent, and people were scared to report.

The two glanced at each other, and at the same time saw the meaning in each other's eyes, and the general was afraid that he was asking for the guilt. Thinking of this, Mrs. Wang immediately struggled to get up, but her body was weak, and she had no strength in her body, so she couldn't get up at all. Diao Chan hurriedly dissuaded, "Mother, don't worry, Cicada go and see!" ”

After saying that, he nodded and turned to leave. In the hall, Han Jin was leisurely looking at the ink treasures around the hall, and with the rise of his status over the years, his knowledge and taste had also increased a lot.

"Diao Chan has seen the general!" At this moment, a small footstep sounded, and then the voice that haunted him came from the moment.

"Cicada, you're alright!" Han Jin picked up Diao Chan and asked with a smile as he looked at it carefully.

"There is General Lao's arms, the cicada is safe, my wife is sick, I can't come to greet the general, and I hope the general will atone for his sins. It's just that the general is coming over today, I don't know what to do? She looked cold and spoke aggressively. On the contrary, Han Jin was stunned, Diao Chan has always been gentle and considerate, gentle and virtuous in the influence, why is it like this today?

Naturally, he didn't know that people were struggling with it. Seeing him, he lost his temper unnaturally.
