039. Bad news, Jiangxia County is lost.

There is no doubt that the smart young man here is Liu Xuan himself, in the post house yesterday, after Liu Bei, Liu Xuan and Zhao Yun discussed, Liu Bei took Liu Xuan directly into Liu Biao's mansion in the evening to see Liu Biao!

When Liu Biao saw Liu Xuan for the first time that night, he was greatly surprised and admired, Liu Biao had already heard that Liu Bei had an eldest son but had never seen it with his own eyes, and his heart was a little lost.

Liu Biao also complained that Liu Bei didn't bring Liu Xuan's nephew out to see him earlier, Liu Bei had to answer with a wry smile that Liu Xuan was unwell, so he revealed it, and in the evening, Liu Biao hinted that Liu Bei stayed in Xiangyang. Liu Biao's hint also hit Liu Bei's heart, and he immediately said that he hoped that Liu Biao would take good care of Liu Xuan.

Liu Biao categorically promised that he would take care of Liu Xuan with due diligence, taking care of Liu Xuan Liu Biao certainly has his own purpose, Liu Xuan is Liu Bei's only heir, leaving Liu Xuan by his side, but he can be a hostage, so Liu Bei can't be "obedient" and obedient.

In addition, Liu Biao also wanted Liu Bei to go to Jiangxia to quell the rebellion against Zhang and Chen's rebellion without any worries.

Liu Bei saw that Liu Biao's affection for Liu Xuan was unobstructed, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart. "As Xuan'er said, entrusting it to Liu Biao should be no problem. If you want to come, Cai Mao doesn't dare to deal with Xuan'er blatantly! As soon as he thought of this, Liu Bei's worries disappeared for a while, and he was ready to go with Zhao Yun to quell the rebellion.

Liu Xuan watched his father leave with the 'three thousand' tiger and wolf soldiers, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help twitching again, and he was speechless in his heart. Xiangyang City has tens of thousands of troops, and Liu Bei said that he had won 3,000 soldiers from Liu Biao yesterday evening!

This is still "temporarily loaned" to Liu Bei, which also shows Liu Biao's jealousy of Liu Bei.

Liu Xuan peeked at Cai Mao on the side, only to see Cai Mao's face gloomy, his eyes flashing with this endless chill, Liu Xuan's heart was cold, and he knew that Cai Mao would be planning to deal with himself, and his biggest protection at this time was the half-old man Liu Biao in front of him!

As soon as he thought of this, Liu Xuan hurriedly put on a smiling face, looking at this old man with slightly white temples, Liu Xuan smiled sweetly, and said very innocently: "Uncle, when will my father come back?" ”

"Xuan'er, your father will go back when he goes, will your uncle take you to play during this time?" Liu Biao looked at Liu Xuan with a loving face, stroked his beard, and said with a smile: "Xuan'er, is it okay for your uncle to ask your brother Zide (Liu Qi) to play with you?" ”

Liu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that it was Liu Qi, and secretly thought: "Yaya, fortunately it's Liu Qi!" If you throw me to the Zhennan General's Mansion, you can eat and drink well, and you will be entertained, and the master will not be at ease! After thinking about this, his eyes swept Cai Mao, and when he saw Cai Mao touching his chin, the gaze in his eyes flickered, as if he was thinking about something, Liu Xuan secretly said in his heart: "Hmph, Cai Mao, your turtle son is waiting for the master, and the master will fly Huang Tengda in the future to see if the master will not kill your turtle son!" ”

After hearing Liu Biao's words, Cai Mao hurriedly stepped forward and whispered to Liu Biao: "My lord, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to entrust Liu Xuan to the eldest prince." Cai Mao said in a gloomy voice: "Don't forget, the eldest prince has been wandering among the flowers all the year round, let the eldest prince take Liu Gongzi, this" Although the words were not finished, the meaning was already obvious, Cai Mao's words really had an effect, Liu Biao's face was gloomy and uncertain after hearing this, his eyes flashed with anger, and he recovered as before in an instant, but all this completely fell into the eyes of Cai Mao and Liu Xuan, who paid attention to Liu Biao's every move!

Cai Mao was very proud when she saw it, and continued: "The second son has been smart and clever since he was a child, why don't you get together and play, isn't it beautiful?" ”

Liu Biao's eyes flashed after hearing this, as if he was moved, Liu Xuan was in a hurry when he saw it, and secretly scolded Cai Mao's ruthless idea, let him be with Liu Cong, I'm afraid that before Liu Bei returns, he will have to shed his skin if he doesn't die, what kind of grand cause to talk about? What do you want to do with your ambitions? …,

If you really end up like this, I'm afraid that I will be the most declining one as a traverser.

Cai Mao was quietly on the side, Cai Mao was scheming, specializing in power for many years, and had long figured out Liu Biao's temperament and weakness, Cai Mao was sure that Liu Biao would agree nine times out of ten, Liu Qi was greatly favored and happy by Liu Biao a few years ago, and Liu Qi's inheritance of Jingzhou Mu was naturally a matter of course. However, after Liu Biao married Cai Mao's sister, all this slowly turned upside down, first Cai Mao's sister gave birth to a son with Liu Biao.

As Liu Cong's uncle, how could Cai Mao inherit the throne for Liu Qi? Immediately arranged a series of things secretly. Liu Biao naturally didn't know that his son was plotted by Cai Mao to send someone to assassinate and slander! Do nothing! Liu Qi died almost several times, but it seems that God blesses Liu Qi, every time he lets Liu Qi escape and ascend to heaven, it can be said that the enemy retaliates.

Yet two, three, four, even a dozen. It is enough to explain the problem, and the person who is not afraid of his noble identity to kill himself, and can directly benefit from it, can be seen at a glance.

However, before facing the behemoth of the Cai family, Liu Qi felt a kind of powerlessness in his heart. One or two resistances will only put him in more danger, and over time, Liu Qi began to wander among the flowers all year round, spending time and drinking with a group of fox friends and dogs. All in order to avoid the attack and assassination of the Cai family!

Cai Mao's series of measures is to make Liu Qi fall willingly, and Cai Mao does not dare to directly wipe out Liu Qi, after all, if the son of Jingzhou Mu disappears out of thin air, no matter how much Liu Biao dislikes his eldest son, he will definitely be ordered to investigate to the end, and he will inevitably be found when the time comes. Cai Mao took the next step to intimidate Liu Qi, and Cai Mao then reported everything Liu Qi did to Liu Biao, Liu Biao scolded Liu Qi without knowing the truth, and Liu Qi had to bear it silently, and it was useless to refute.

Liu Qi was assassinated by a killer, and Liu Biao, as the lord of Jingzhou, didn't know about it, isn't this clear? Liu Biao thought of everything his eldest son had done, and sighed sadly, looking a little lonely, gloomy, Cai Mao saw a smug smile on the corner of his mouth.

Liu Xuan frowned and looked at Liu Biao and Cai Mao, and his heart was even more uneasy, "Decide your own life and death with others, and you can't fight for it!" Liu Xuan pursed his lips, his eyes must be clear, Liu Xuan is not a good baby, a doll that can be swayed!

Before Liu Biao made up his mind, Liu Xuan looked at Liu Biao and said crisply: "Uncle, my father said to look more outside, but you can deepen your heart, Xuan'er wants to go outside with Brother Zide." ”

After that, he looked at Liu Biao with a look of expectation and a little begging, Liu Biao originally wanted to flatly refuse, but it can be seen that Liu Xuan looked so pleading, his heart suddenly softened, and he said in a harmonious voice: "Okay, well, since Xuan'er wants to play with Zide, Uncle will allow you!" ”

"Thank you Uncle, thank you Uncle......"

"Huh!"

Liu Xuan's face was full of joy after hearing this, Liu Biao looked at Liu Xuan's innocent and romantic smile, and his heart was greatly relieved, and the laughter was loud and audible!

Cai Mao, who was on the side, listened to Liu Biao's words and his heart sank, and he was secretly annoyed that Liu Xuan didn't know what to do, but this time Jihua was unexpected, Cai Mao was angry and very depressed, Cai Mao immediately took a few steps forward and said softly: "Lord, isn't this okay?" If the eldest prince takes ......"

Liu Biao was very unhappy when he heard Cai Mao's unrelenting determination of Liu Qi Fengyue, frowned, and said coldly: "Deju, can the defense of Xiangyang City be arranged?" If something goes wrong, you're asked. ”

Cai Mao's heart jumped when she saw it, and hurriedly argued: "The lord ......"

Liu Biao waved his hand impatiently, and said in a low voice: "Qi'er's lonely self will instruct, De Mao doesn't need to talk nonsense" The tone was stunned, and his eyes stared at Cai Mao for a moment and then snorted, Cai Mao saw that his heart was uneasy, and his heart rose quietly, and the ensuing sentence made Cai Mao's heart tremble! …,

"Dejue, are your hands a little longer? The family affairs of the pastor of this state should also be managed! Liu Biao glanced at Cai Mao coldly, and said coldly: "De Jue, just take care of yourself and your clansmen, there are some things that don't think that the herd of Benzhou doesn't know ......."

The words fell, and he quietly took Liu Xuan's hand and slowly walked towards Xiangyang City.

Beads of sweat appeared on Cai Mao's forehead, there was a trace of surprise in the depths of his eyes, and he couldn't let go of his heart for a long time, looking at Liu Biao's departing figure, Cai Mao knew that Liu Biao was beating himself!

After a long time, Cai Mao raised her head again, the look in her eyes was completely disguised, as if nothing had happened before, if someone was interested in observing, you could find that Cai Mao's hands hidden in her sleeves were tightly held, so that you could see that Cai Mao's heart was not calm!

Liu Bei's army has been marching for nearly a day, the speed of the march is still very objective, this day's kung fu, walked nearly dozens of miles, Liu Bei is also slightly satisfied, compared to this, what makes Liu Bei more worried is the situation of the soldiers!

Although Liu Biao said that the four counties of Jingnan would collect 20,000 troops to join them in Nanjun, Liu Bei also understood that Liu Biao had not always had a very strong control over Jingnan, and those Taishou in Jingnan were like local emperors. Generally, Liu Biao's decree is also contrary to the yang and the yin, but the four counties dare to be so presumptuous, and sometimes they don't buy Liu Biao's account.

"Lingling, Wuling, Changsha, Guiyang! The four counties are often under the edge of the barbarian soldiers, and their combat power should not be vulnerable?? Liu Bei frowned and thought to himself.

Jingzhou has not been at war for a long time, the combat strength of the 20,000 army in Jingnan needs to be investigated, and the unknown makes Liu Bei's head as big as a fight, not to mention that Zhang Wu is a general, and he knows some of the situations in Jingzhou well.

The intelligence said that Zhang Wu, Chen Sun gathered tens of thousands of troops, and there were three thousand around him, and he didn't know how many people could come to Lingling, Wuling, Changsha, and Guiyang! Thinking about tens of thousands VS three thousand, Liu Bei suddenly felt a big headache, and rubbed his temples weakly.

At this time, Zhao Yun came with a heavy face, and when Liu Bei saw Zhao Yun coming, he couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Zilong, why are you not in front?" ”

"My lord, the forward patrol of our army caught a Jiangxia defeated pawn, and the Jiangxia defeated pawn spit out a major piece of information, and Jiangling County Cheng Fu Xun sent someone to report it." Zhao Yun said with a calm face, Liu Bei's heart jumped when he heard this, and he said secretly: "It's not Zhang Wu, Chen Sun and the others broke Jiangxia, right?" But Huang Zu has 30,000 elite soldiers sitting in Jiangxia, and he can't easily break the city, right? ”

"Fu Xun?" Liu Bei's mind was already full of Jiangxia's defeat at this time, how could he take care of Fu Xun? Liu Bei hurriedly cheered up and asked, "Zilong, what information?" ”

Liu Bei looked at Zhao Yun with blazing eyes, and Zhao Yun said in a deep voice: "Lord, Fu Xun of Jiangling County sent someone to report that a total of 20,000 troops from the four counties of Lingling, Wuling, Changsha, and Guiyang have been in the military camp outside Jiangling City!" ”

"Oh? That's good news! Liu Bei exhaled a breath of turbidity slightly, his eyes skimmed to Zhao Yun's face was still heavy, and his heart couldn't help but hang, and he asked, "By the way, that Jiangxia ......"

Zhao Yun nodded silently, and his tone was mixed with a hint of disbelief: "Jiangxia County was broken by Zhang Wu and Chen Sun......

"Boom!" Like the touch of gold and iron, Liu Bei was stunned for a long time, and after a while, Liu Bei suddenly grabbed Zhao Yun's big hand and asked in a lost voice, "What?" Jiangxia County is broken? How so? What about Huang Zu? Fucking Huang Zu went to eat shit? ”

"Lord, these clouds don't know ......" Zhao Yun shook his head, looked at Liu Bei with a little worry, and said in a low voice: "Lord, why don't we go forward and ask Jiangling?" ”

Liu Bei suddenly woke up, and saw that the front was not far from Jiangling City at this time, Liu Bei nodded hurriedly, left the three thousand army, and galloped towards Jiangling.
