Seeing Cai Mao, Cai's heart has always hung in his throat.

If Pang Tong and Liu Biao are really old friends, as long as the matter she discussed with Cai Mao and Kuai Yue is exposed, they will face Pang Tong's reproach.

Pang Tong is not terrible, what is terrible is that he has the Han court behind him.

Today's emperor is not a good match, and if he moves his prime minister, he will definitely order the Han army to move south.

The small Jingzhou could not withstand the attack of the Han army on all fronts.

Attacking Pang Tong and others is no different from committing suicide.

Sitting in the house, Cai Shi was full of anxiety thinking about how to deal with this matter, and a maid's voice came from outside the door: "Madam, Kuai Yue asks to see!" ”

Kuai Yue was the same as Cai Mao at the beginning, and mentioned to her the person who secretly attacked Liu Biao.

He came here, and in Cai's opinion, his purpose must be the same as Cai Mao.

Compared with Cai Mao, Kuai Yue has a lot more ideas.

Hearing that he was coming, Cai hurriedly said to the maid outside the house, "Invite him in to talk." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, the door was gently pushed open by the maid, and then she heard the footsteps of someone entering the antechamber.

As the footsteps approached, Kuai Yue appeared in front of her with a busy face.

"Madam, it's not good!" When she saw Cai, Kuai Yue shouted to her in a panic.

Since the maid was still at the door, Cai hurriedly waved his hand at him and motioned for him not to say any more.

Knowing what Cai meant, Kuai Yue really didn't say anything, but turned around and looked at the door.

"Go down!" After giving an order to the maid at the door, and when she left the room and closed the door from the outside, Cai Shi whispered to Kuai Yue, "Why are you so panicked?" ”

The maid had already closed the door, and Kuai Yue said to Cai: "Madame, do you know what the relationship between Jingsheng Gong and Pang Tong who came to Xiangyang today?" ”

Cai Mao had already been here before, but he was not sure that there was a connection between Pang Tong and Liu Biao, but Kuai Yue had a tone that the two were really related at this time, which suddenly raised Cai's heart that was already hanging in his throat.

Staring at Kuai Yue, Cai's face was panicked, but he didn't ask.

From her expression, it was already clear that she wanted to know what the relationship between Pang Tong and Liu Biao was, and Kuai Yue continued: "Although Pang Tong and Jing Shenggong have never met, the two have already exchanged letters......

"Oh?" When Kuai Yue said this, Cai Shi seemed to understand something, his eyes suddenly widened, and he let out a soft sigh.

"This is Pang Tong's reply to Jingsheng Gong at the beginning!" Taking out a letter from his bosom, Kuai Yue Shen said mysteriously to Cai: "Madame, if you read it, you will understand!" ”

Taking the letter from Kuai Yue's hand, Cai's hands trembled slightly, and he unfolded the letter and read it word by word.

After reading the letter, her face turned pale with surprise, and she looked at Kuai Yue in astonishment, as if muttering to herself: "There is such a thing? ”

"Duke Jingsheng has already agreed to His Majesty, and after he dies, Jingzhou will return to the jurisdiction of the imperial court, and the imperial court will appoint another assassin!" Lowering his head, Kuai Yue said with a panicked face: "That Pang Tong and Lu Bu came to crusade against Liu Bei, thinking that they wanted to talk to Jingsheng Gong about this matter, but we secretly murdered him. If Pang Tong knows, my wife and I will wait for the head, I am afraid it will be ......"

Speaking of this, Kuai Yue didn't continue, just peeked at Cai's family.

Due to the panic, Cai's face was already pale, and the hand holding the letter was shaking even more than before.

"How's that good?" Thinking of the scene when the head fell to the ground, Cai's heart was even more flustered, and he asked Kuai Yue again.

"For the sake of today, the only way to ask the court for more benefits is to ask for more benefits!" Clenched his fists and bowed to Cai's family, Kuai Yue said: "Jingzhou has no power to compete with the imperial court, and the imperial court wants Jingzhou, just need to find a reason." Pang Tongzhi is very thoughtful, how can he not see that we are assassinating Jing Shenggong? Once this matter is shaken off, even if the court does not crusade against us, Liu Qigongzi's group will definitely send troops to attack us! ”

"In your opinion, you want to sacrifice Jingzhou?" Thinking that Liu Cong had just become a pastor in Jingzhou, the Cai family was a little unwilling, frowned, and asked Kuai Yue: "Is there no other way?" ”

Shaking his head, Kuai Yue said helplessly: "What the imperial court wants is Jingzhou, if the lady does not follow the will of Jingsheng Gong and dedicates it here, I am afraid that the imperial court will ......not allow it."

Kuai Yue's answer made Cai's mood suddenly fall to the bottom.

She pursed her lips tightly, her brows were locked into a Sichuan shape, and her face was full of sadness.

From her expression, Kuai Yue could see that she was very reluctant to sacrifice Jingzhou.

It's no wonder that the Cai family has such an expression, Liu Biao, who tried his best and even secretly murdered, was charged with murdering his husband, but in the end he made a wedding dress for the imperial court, no matter who put it on, the matter will not be easy.

"Madame!" Seeing the entanglement in Cai's expression, Kuai Yue whispered to her: "What Madame wants is nothing more than a lifetime of glory." As for power, Madame doesn't have much desire......"

Cai is a woman, if you talk about power, it is indeed not as important to her as a lifetime of stability and honor.

Supporting Liu Cong to become a pastor in Jingzhou is nothing more than wanting to use his son's identity to achieve the goal of honor in this life.

Hearing Kuai Yue's words, Cai's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked him, "What does Kuai Gong mean?" ”

"Give Jingzhou, but don't give it for nothing!" Looking at Cai, Kuai Yue said to her: "Madame should make some demands to the imperial court!" ”

"If the court knows that we have planned for the husband......" Kuai Yue's statement had already made Cai's family a little shaken, she frowned slightly, and whispered: "There is also a little implication between Pang Tong and the husband, if he refuses to give up......"

"Madame is a heroine among women, why can't she see through this matter!" Before Cai finished speaking, Kuai Yue had already interrupted her and said to her: "Although Pang Tong and Jingsheng Gong have correspondence, there is no deep relationship between the two. Those who want Pang Tong are nothing more than Jingzhou, and those who want Jingsheng Gong are nothing more than harmless! ”

Kuai Yue's words suddenly made Cai's understanding.

Her apricot eyes widened, looked at Kuai Yue and said, "In this way, we only need to hand over Jingzhou, and the imperial court will also wait for some benefits with me?" ”

"That's inevitable!" Nodding, Kuai Yue said: "General Cai is now in command of the soldiers and horses in Jingzhou, not to mention the infantry army and the horse army, but only to talk about the navy, although there are many generals in the imperial court, I know that there are few people who train the navy, and I don't want to reuse the generals?" Besides, the wife and son, dedicating Jingzhou, is the loyalty of the court, and his majesty will not be crowned a prince today? ”

was made a prince, although he had no real power, but he was much more honorable than the local governor.

Hearing Kuai Yue's words, Cai's mind suddenly came to life.

After thinking for a while, she said to Kuai Yue: "This matter is fine, but I don't know that Pang Tong is so thoughtful......

"If Madame has a heart, the subordinates will go and deal with it from now on!" He bowed to Cai's with his fists in his fists, and Kuai Yue said: "I'm afraid that Madame will be difficult to decide, if the subordinates deal with this matter, Madame will regret it again......"

"My life is at stake, how can I regret it?" Without waiting for Kuai Yue to finish speaking, Cai hurriedly said: "Kuai Gong just go and take care of it, as long as I wait for my life to be saved, the court will give some rewards, and this Jingzhou will be the court's!" ”

When he came to see Cai, Kuai Yue even guessed that in order to hold his fist in Jingzhou, Cai's would not hesitate to turn against the imperial court.

To his surprise, not only did Cai not express his refusal to give up Jingzhou, but he was a little impatient to exchange Jingzhou for stability.

Bowing to Cai's again, Kuai Yue said to her: "Madam, don't worry, this matter will be done!" ”

Nodding at Kuai Yue, Cai's face was still with a touch of panic, and he said to him: "The lives of our orphans and widows are in the hands of Kuai Gong, and I hope that Kuai Gong will take pity on him and make every effort to promote this matter!" ”

Bowing in response, Kuai Yue first took two steps back, then turned around and left Cai's residence.

Watching Kuai Yue walk out of the room, it wasn't until he closed the door from the outside that Cai sat down dejectedly, his face showing sadness.

If she had known that Liu Biao had the intention to give up Jingzhou, it would be useless to poison Liu Biao, she would never have done that.

killed Liu Biao so that her son Liu Cong could rightfully inherit Jingzhou, and the mother and son no longer had to worry about being bullied.

Now it seems that she has made a risky move.

If Pang Tong is more serious with her, she refuses to let go of the pursuit of Liu Biao's death, and she can only choose to challenge Pang Tong and others in order to protect herself.

Turning against Pang Tong and others is not the result that Cai wants to see.

When things come to that point, she, Cai Mao and even Liu Cong will all fall to the ground soon!

Now it seems that it is most appropriate to obey Kuai Yue's construction and dedicate Jingzhou.

Thinking about these in his heart, Cai's became more and more irritable, and shouted outside the house: "Someone! ”

A maid who was waiting outside the house pushed open the door and walked in, stood in front of Cai, saluted her, and waited for her instructions.

Without looking up at the maid, Cai said to her, "You go and invite the general, I have something to discuss with him!" ”

The general Cai Shi refers to, of course, Cai Mao, and the maid answered and exited the room.

When the maid withdrew, Cai stood up, walked to the window, looked at the scenery in the courtyard outside the window, and sighed helplessly.

She has lived in Jingzhou for many years, and although she rarely leaves the state pastoral mansion, she is extremely familiar with this courtyard.

Once Jingzhou is ceded, she and Liu Cong will definitely receive the will of the imperial court and move to Luoyang from now on.

staring out the window with a sad face, unconsciously, Cai had been standing for a long time, and the voice of the maid came from outside the house: "Madam, the general is here!" ”

Hearing that Cai Mao was coming, Cai hurriedly instructed the maid: "Please come in and speak!" ”
