Chapter 19: Questions to Ask
After a while, the maid took Chen Qiubai to a living room, and then turned to Chen Qiubai and said, "General Cai Mao is inside, you go in first!" Then I'll sue
Returned. ”
Chen Qiubai also smiled and said, "Well, then I'll go in first and see this sister again." ”
After speaking, Chen Qiubai stepped into the living room, and as soon as he entered the living room, he heard a hearty laugh: "Hahaha...... General Chen has arrived! We were talking about you! Come on, come on, sit down first! ”
Chen Qiubai looked up, but saw that there were two people sitting in the living room at this time, and there were some wine and meat in front of them, these two people should be drinking and having fun, and then look at the person on the main seat directly above, it seems that the dress of a literati and elegant scholar should be Cai Mao himself, and the one sitting in front of the seat in the lower left corner is similar to Chen Qiubai's dress, it seems that he is also a general under Cai Mao, and it is very likely that he is also a person who has crossed the Divine Cult. Look at the lower right corner There is also a table of the same banquet, but there is no one in front of the banquet, this is probably prepared for Chen Qiubai.
At this glance, Chen Qiubai already had a clear understanding of the current situation, so he bowed his hand to Cai Mao and said, "Thank you General Cai Mao for this." "After that, it's on the bottom right
sat down in front of the low table in the corner, then raised a glass of wine on the table, smiled at Cai Mao and said, "General Cai Mao, I toast you with a glass of wine." ”
Cai Mao also said with a smile: "Haha, it's easy to say, since this is the case, then you and I will share this cup." After saying that, Cai Mao and Chen Qiubai both drank the contents of this cup, but Chen Qiubai felt extremely depressed in his heart, because when he actually drank this wine, he drank a smell of cat urine, no wonder people always called wine cat urine in ancient times
This! So here's why!
After Chen Qiubai and Cai Mao drank this cup, Cai Mao continued: "This is General Chen Qiubai Chen, this is General Ma Ning Yuanma, and you are all heroes and teenagers!" Let's get to know each other! ”
When Chen Qiubai heard Cai Mao say this, he immediately filled his wine glass again and said to Ma Ningyuan: "General Ma, I salute you." ”
Ma Ningyuan also raised his glass and said, "Where, where!" I should respect you. With that, they both drank their wines.
This situation made Cai Mao very happy, and Cai Mao said happily: "Okay, good! Both of you are good drinkers, this time the three of us have a drink, let's do it! "Finish three
Individuals drank another big glass......
After three rounds of drinking, this Cai Mao's face suddenly changed, and she sighed helplessly: "Alas! ”
Getting down to business! Chen Qiubai realized.
However, this Ma Ningyuan was very clever, and immediately said to Cai Mao: "General Cai sighs for some reason? ”
Cai Mao also reversed the elated demeanor just now, and said with a sad face: "I miss me Cai Mao, who has assisted Jingsheng Gong over the years, governed Jingzhou, served the country and the people, worked hard for half his life, worked hard, and sighed all night. Alas! I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it! ”
Chen Qiubai also listened to Cai Mao's disgusting words, and he was basically about to die of disgust, but he could only pretend to stare at Cai Mao with curious eyes and ask Cai Mao with a curious face
"Didn't think of anything?" ”
Cai Mao immediately climbed up the pole and continued to moan without illness: "Alas...... I didn't expect that over the years, the Han dynasty declined, first there was the Yellow Turban Army disaster to the country and the people, and then Dong Zhuo committed rebellion, since then the Central Plains and the northern region are constantly strife, and because of this, many famous thieves have gone south to Jingzhou, and the bandits in Jingzhou have made trouble, which is not a small disaster, I have also sent people to suppress bandits before, but several times the bandits have often returned in vain. So I sent someone to invite the two of them to come this time, I think the two of them are also famous generals in Jingzhou, and there should be no big problem with this governance of a few thieves! ”
What the?? Jingzhou famous general! When did I become a famous general in Jingzhou, Chen Qiubai thought inexplicably, but suddenly he immediately figured it out.
Since the leader of the sect is known as the "three nothings": omnipresent, omniscient, and omnipotent, it is simply too simple to arrange the identity of a famous general in Jingzhou.
Chen Qiubai, who figured out the cause and effect, was also relieved of all this, and accepted the identity of Jingzhou's famous general as a matter of course, and said to Cai Mao: "Of course, it is not a problem to exterminate a few thieves, but I still have a few things I want to ask Lord Cai Mao." ”
Hearing Chen Qiubai say this, Cai Mao was also surprised, this Chen Qiubai is so confident, and I don't know where he got his confidence from? You must know that the first few times you sent a lot of troops to suppress the bandits, but in the end they all had little effect, these bandits, they often saw the officers and soldiers coming, they immediately hid without a trace, and then when you began to relax, they immediately took advantage of your unpreparedness, secretly came out and stabbed you a few times, but it really hurt the officers and soldiers.
So he immediately smiled and said to Chen Qiubai: "What does General Chen want to know?" I, Cai Mao, must know everything and say everything. ”
Chen Qiubai pondered for a moment and asked, "This first question, may I ask General Cai, do you know how General Liu Bei is doing?" ”
As soon as Cai Mao heard Liu Bei's person, she was angry, and scolded and said, "Liu Bei, this big-eared thief!" It's really not a thing, with a pair of attractive ears, at a glance, you know that it is a jiān evil person, in this Jingzhou territory, there is him without me, I have him without him, sooner or later one day I will take his xìng life! What's the matter, General Chen, do you know Liu Bei himself? Then Cai Mao looked at Chen Qiubai with a wary face.
Is it also a sin to have big ears?! I didn't expect this Cai Mao to have such a reaction, I couldn't wait to kill Liu Bei, which scared Chen Qiubai. But it's right to think about it, originally Cai Mao was the number one force in Jingzhou, but I didn't expect this Liu Bei to come in with a sideways foot, and Liu Biaoke is still a real power figure with soldiers under his command, and the strength of Liu Bei's jīng soldiers and strong generals must be stronger than Cai Mao, and now Liu Bei should have entered Xinye City, no wonder this Cai Mao is so angry.
So Chen Qiubai smiled awkwardly and said, "Where! I just heard that there is such a number one person as Liu Bei, and I recently came to the boundary of Jingzhou, and I feel a little curious, and by the way, I wanted to ask the general about it, but I didn't expect the general to react like this, uh...... Checkmate...... Dissipation, dissipation. You just didn't ask. ”
Cai Mao probably realized that she was too out of shape just now! So he smiled awkwardly and said, "That's it, let's not mention the unhappy things, but I don't know if General Chen has any other questions to ask?" ”
