In recent days, Liu Qi has temporarily handled political affairs on behalf of Liu Biao, but this Jingxiang matter, although Liu Qi can call the shots, but the government decree can be exercised, all of which are written by Erkuai, Liu Qi does not care about this, and is happy to be idle.

After the killing of Cai's family, Liu Qi was resentful of Liu Biao's heart before, and he was empty, and the father's love that he had been asking for for a long time fell on Liu Qi, Liu Qi cherished it, and after handing over Jingxiang's political affairs to Erkuai, Liu Qi served Liu Biao every day, and treated Liu Cong well.

From this point of view, the demise of the Cai family is not necessarily a bad thing for the Liu Biao family.

Since the killing of the Cai family, Xiangyang Erkuai will Pang brothers, invited into the house, to discuss the plan, in Pang Shanmin's view, this Kuai Yue, Kuai Liang brothers, but also keep their promises, now Cai's has been removed, Jingxiang court, there are many vacancies, Erkuai intends to make Pang Shanmin choose some confidants, control the authority, but Pang Shanmin said that everyone around him has no intention of entering the court.

It's not that Pang Shanmin doesn't want to take control of Jingxiang as soon as possible, but he can't.

At present, Jingxiang has been in chaos, the Cai family has perished, hurting the foundation of the court, and now the first thing is to maintain the stability of Jingxiang, deter the princes from all walks of life, so that they dare not act rashly, so the best choice at the moment is to support Liu Qi and take the affairs of the court step by step.

And Pang Shanmin's confidants, in addition to Wolong and Phoenix, there are only Jingnan's classmates and Wei Yan, Gan Ning and other friends, the only one who can free up his hands to help is Shamoke, but above this Xiangyang court, will a barbarian be allowed to occupy a high position?

One's eyes are bigger than one's stomach..

Pang Shanmin was also quite helpless about this, and after discussing with Erkuai, Pang Shanmin said that he did not want to come to the court for the time being, but just told Erkui that he must beware of Liu Bei, and must not let Liu Bei take this opportunity to enter the court.

Erkui heard that he had relatives in his heart, and now in addition to Cai Mao, the only threat to Liu Qi's future entry into Jingxiang is Liu Bei, and Liu Bei is known as the name of benevolence, and he is the uncle of the Han Emperor, since Cai Mao's death, there are several people in Jingxiang court, who want to contact Liu Bei, lead him into the court, and help Liu Qi.

The leader of them is the Yi nationality.

The four of them talked about this, they were all depressed, Yi was an official in Xiangyang for a long time, and his virtue was outstanding, and now Yi was ready to move, but it made a few people quite helpless, everyone in the world has likes and dislikes, Pang Shanmin can't blame Yi nationality, appreciate Liu Bei......

Thinking of this, Pang Shanmin said to Kuai Yue: "Yidu Gong, now Liu Bei is guarding Jiangxia, if he returns, Yidu Gong should drive him back to Jiangxia in the name of guarding the border land." ”

"Then Liu Bei will definitely come?" Kuai Yue frowned when he heard this, but Pang Shanmin said: "Pang and this imperial uncle, now they have several faces, and with the strategy of Yuan Zhi, they will not let go of this great opportunity, now Liu Bei's land is surrounded by wolves, only after winning Jingxiang, can he compete with the rest of the princes to dominate the world, Liu Bei is already ambitious, how can he miss the opportunity?" ”

"What do the mountain people think, how should the two of us deal with Liu Bei?"

Erkuai's understanding of Liu Bei is far inferior to Pang Shanmin, Kuai Yue thought for a moment, and then said to Pang Shanmin: "In front of Jingsheng, you may be able to slander him, but Liu Bei is the same clan as Jingsheng after all, as the saying goes, you can't get close, Jingsheng has always been benevolent, if you act like this, you are afraid of provoking Jingsheng's dislike." ”

Pang Shanmin also had a headache about this, and Liu Bei was persistent, which made people palpitate, thinking of this, Pang Shanmin sighed, and said to Erkuai: "Now there is only day and night vigilance, so that Liu Bei will not be able to meet the eldest prince, otherwise the eldest prince will be bewitched by it, and our previous efforts will be in vain." ”

When Er Kuai heard this, they all nodded, and they were even more vigilant about Liu Bei.

As Pang Shanmin expected, three days later, Liu Bei and his entourage stepped into Xiangyang, in the name of visiting the sick, asking to see Liu Biao, Pang Shanmin and Pang Tong, on the inn, looking at the military horses downstairs into the city, all smiling bitterly.

"It's a good time to pick!" Pang Tong frowned, looked at Xu Shu who was walking side by side with Liu Bei, snorted coldly, and said to Pang Shanmin: "I knew that Yuan was straight to Liu Bei, and when he was in the academy, Pang would not be with him!" ”

"It's no wonder that Yuan Zhi." Pang Shanmin shook his head and sighed: "It's just that my brother doesn't like Liu Bei, Liu Bei is also a hero, and he has great ambitions, Yuan Zhi is willing to serve Liu Bei, but there is nothing wrong with it." ”

"But the former classmates are now strangers...... Pang Tong heard this, he couldn't help sighing, and said to Pang Shanmin: "Looking at it from the younger brother's point of view, this Liu Bei and his brother, sooner or later there will be a fight!" ”

Pang Shanmin nodded when he heard this, and said to Pang Tong: "What will happen in the future, don't think about it now, Shiyuan, you and I just need to do the current thing." Now that Kong Ming and the eldest prince are inseparable, you and I will pin this hope on Kong Ming. ”

Pang Tong heard this, nodded, but was quite unwilling in his heart, Pang Tong thought that Jiangxia had let this Liu Bei take advantage of him in the past, but this guy was not satisfied, and came to Xiangyang again to plot Liu Biao's family business.

Liu Bei stayed in the Taishou Mansion for a short time, and was invited out by Liu Qi on the grounds that his father was unwell and inconvenient to entertain guests, but what Liu Qi did not expect was that Liu Bei actually regarded himself as an uncle in front of him, and wanted to teach Liu Qi how to govern, although Liu Qi was impatient in his heart, he did not want to save the face of this "uncle", and invited Liu Bei and Xu Shu into the back hall and handed them over to Kong Ming to entertain.

When Xu Shu saw Kong Ming, his expression changed slightly, and he said to Kong Ming: "Kong Ming is not in Jingnan? ”

"Yuan Zhi is not in Jiangxia."

Zhuge Liang chuckled when he heard this, and said to Xu Shu: "I haven't seen Yuan Zhi for a long time, Liang misses it very much, but when I see it today, Liang feels that Yuan Zhi's vision is getting more and more regressive......"

When Xu Shu heard this, he was displeased, and was about to argue, but he heard Liu Bei next to him laugh and said: "Mr. Wolong, now that I am preparing to meet with the eldest son, it is rare for my uncle and nephew to reunite, please give us a secluded place, so that my uncle and nephew can discuss this Jingxiang government affairs." ”

"Uncle Huang doesn't think that the eldest prince can't care?" When Zhuge Liang heard this, he glanced at Liu Bei, but Liu Bei was not angry, and said to Zhuge Liang: "Discuss more, the decree can also be accessible, and this time Jingsheng is seriously ill, as a minister, I also want to help Jingsheng share his worries." ”

"Uncle Huang said this, I have to talk to that Xiangyang Erkuai." Zhuge Liang was noncommittal, and said to Liu Bei: "Please also ask the emperor for forgiveness, before the second kuai, he had an appointment with the eldest prince, and wanted to guide his government affairs, and he and the eldest prince have important matters, forgive me and the two, I can't accompany ......"

"Xiangyang Erkuai?" When Liu Bei heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said to Zhuge Liang: "That being the case, Bei and the eldest prince are going together, and they are both Jingxiang's courtiers, and Bei also wants to ask for advice in front of Erkuai." ”
