NO.134 Above the court, Cai's lost power

The news that Gan Ning led the Jingxiang Naval Army, defeated Zhou Yu, and resisted Jiangdong, has now been transmitted back to Xiangyang, Liu Biao is above the court, and his heart is happy, saying that Liu Qi has the wisdom to know people, and after encouraging Liu Qi, he looked at Cai Mao and Zhang Yun's eyes, which were much colder.

The next day, Liu Biao summoned the ministers, and now Cai Mao's naval governor has been removed by Liu Biao, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun are in the hall, only at the bottom of the seat, court officials, whispering, making the two die of shame.

How could you ever be so sullen in this Jingxiang?

Thinking of this, Cai Mao's gaze at Liu Biao also had a more complex meaning.

"Although Gan Xingba is a water coward, he is also of some use now, so he ordered him to lead the Jingxiang Water Army Governor, guard Xiakou, and wait for Jiangdong to retreat!" Liu Biao said, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, now they have dismissed Cai Mao's military power, but the two are not satisfied, the two know that the snake does not die but suffers from it, and Liu Biao is now old, and the decision is often changed day and night, if the Cai woman is in his ear, blowing the wind on the pillow, then once the Cai family recovers, it is not beautiful.

Thinking of this, Kuai Yue stepped out among the ministers under the court, and said to Liu Biao: "The lord has always had clear rewards and punishments, but now that Deqi is defeated, the lord is exempt from his guilt, and the general of the defeated army, if he is not punished, how can I obey the orders of the lord in the future?" ”

"Quaternity! You ......" Cai Mao heard this, glared angrily at Kuai Yue, but did not expect that in the past few months, the Kuai family not only colluded with that Liu Qi, but now he also dared to go toe-to-toe with the Cai family, did this Kuai Yue think that the first family of Jingxiang was just a decoration?

"Brother Deqi, don't be impatient, and the old man doesn't think that there is any fallacy in this statement!" Seeing this, Kuai Liang smiled indifferently, said to Cai Mao, turned his head and arched his hand to Liu Biao, and said: "Jingxiang Water Army, most of it is destroyed in the hands of Deju, if the lord does not punish him, people's hearts will be uneasy!" ”

Seeing that Liu Biao's expression turned cold, as if he wanted to follow Erkuai's advice, Cai Mao hurriedly said: "The defeat of this battle is mostly due to Zhang Yun's rashness, if it weren't for his rash advance, why would Cai have been defeated so much?" ”

As soon as Cai Mao's words fell, Zhang Yun shouted and scolded, and hurriedly knelt in front of the steps, kowtowed to Liu Biao again and again, and said: "Lord Mingjian, then Cai Mao's authority is far above Zhang, in the water war, how dare you not give orders?" ”

Seeing that Zhang Yun and Cai Mao were not compatible, Kuai Yue had an idea, and stepped forward to Liu Biao and said: "General Zhang's words are reasonable, my lord, then Cai Mao's army was defeated, not only did he not think about his mistakes, but also wanted to blame his colleagues, if the lord did not punish him, it would make my Jingxiang soldiers, and everyone was cold!" ”

Liu Biao nodded, Cai Mao hurriedly returned to the ground when he saw this, shouting that he was wronged, Liu Biao was unmoved, and said to Liu Qi: "I think this Cai Mao should not be killed?" ”

When Liu Qi heard this, he was flattered and said to Liu Biao: "Everything is up to my father." ”

Liu Biao smiled when he heard this: "If you want you to say it, you can say it!" ”

Liu Qi thought for a moment and said to Liu Biao: "The defeat of the naval army, General Cai will not be able to escape the blame, but if his father kills him, it is difficult for his stepmother to explain it......"

"Does the old man need to explain to the woman when he does things?" Liu Biao frowned when he heard this, but after thinking about it, this Liu Qi was also thinking about him, nodded, and said to Liu Qi: "For my father to know that you are filial, it is only a major military matter, you can't indulge in private affairs, for your father's teachings, can you remember?" ”

"Sons are taught." Liu Qi said that, and retreated to the ministers, but he was secretly happy in his heart, in his father's words, there was already a faint meaning of guidance, and it seemed that what Kong Ming said was not bad. When I returned to Xiangyang this time, my father's attitude towards himself has changed greatly!

Just thinking that Cai Mao led the Jingxiang Water Army before and also had meritorious deeds, Liu Biao sighed and said to Cai Mao: "De Qi, this time the army was defeated, my Jingxiang Water Army, most of it was destroyed, you can't escape the blame, remember that you were in my Jingxiang in the past, and you also had meritorious deeds, the old man will go to your official position, and you will not be allowed to enter this court in the future......"

Cai Mao knelt on the ground, still in a daze, Kuai Yue hurriedly stepped forward and said to Liu Biao: "The lord is wise, in this way, he will also give an explanation to those deceased Jing Xiang soldiers." ”

When Cai Mao heard this, he was resentful in his heart, stood up at the bottom of the stairs, and walked out of the court without looking back, everyone in the hall looked at each other, Liu Biao snorted coldly, and said to everyone: "Don't pay attention to him!" ”

Seeing that Liu Biao's mind has been decided, the ministers know in their hearts that now the Cai family of the first family of Jingxiang is afraid that time is running out, and the Kuai family and the eldest prince are in the limelight......

And above the court, Cai Zhong, Cai and the two were also treated coldly, these two people were able to stand on the court because of Cai Mao's power, and now Cai Mao's general trend has gone, how can Jing Xiang and the ministers ignore these two mediocre people, Cai Zhong, Cai and the two were disheartened, standing at the bottom of the stairs, silent.

Everything that happened in the Jingxiang court, a few days later, it was all spread to Xiakou, Cai Mao has now lost his military power, just like a toothless tiger, in this Jingxiang, there is no advantage, and because of Cai Mao's matter, Liu Biao is angry with Cai, Liu Cong, Pang Shanmin got the news, and he was secretly happy in his heart, and he did not kill Cai Mao that day, and the results were remarkable.

"Then Cai Mao is treated coldly like this, if he mutinies, it will not be good!" Gan Ning said, Pang Shanmin and Pang Tong were all in trouble, Pang Tong smiled and said to Gan Ning: "Then how can Cai Mao's mediocre generation be the enemy of Erkuai, and Xingba thinks that with Kong Ming's wisdom, can he not take precautions early?" ”

"That's right, if they mutiny, they will kill themselves." Pang Shanmin also smiled when he heard this, and said to Gan Ning: "Xingba, you are powerful in the matter of fighting, but the intrigue in the court is not your forte!" ”

"That's why Gan doesn't want to lead this Jingxiang water army, if he goes to the court in the future, won't he always have to be sulked by that Liu Biao?" Gan Ning said that, and smiled at Pang Shanmin: "When the Jiangdong retreats, Gan will return to Changsha and lead an army across the river, which is much happier than the crime suffered by the court!" ”

"I'm afraid that Liu Biao is also ...... this meaning" Pang Shanmin heard this, and sighed slightly: "Liu Biao is a person, who loves the people and raises soldiers, but he doesn't like the lieutenant generals and colonels of the army......

"If the eldest prince inherits the family business, everything will be easy to ......say," Pang Tong said, and smiled at Pang Shanmin: "Brother, I'm afraid I didn't expect that the Cai family would lose power so quickly!" ”

Pang Shanmin nodded, and said to the two: "Now it only depends on the Jiangdong Zhou Lang, when will the army retreat, Cheng Pu has attacked Jiangxia City several times before, but failed to break the city, and now Jiangxia, should also know that the Jiangdong Navy was defeated, Cheng Pu's army, now it has lost its momentum, and when it retreats, we can successfully retreat!" ”
