Chapter 24: Pillow Wind
State Pastoral Mansion, Backyard.
Cai and Cai Mao sat opposite each other.
Cai Mao's eyes showed a hint of joy, and said, "Sister, I just got good news, it's about Liu Xiu." ”
Cai Shi came to his senses and asked, "What did Liu Xiu do again?"
Cai Mao replied: "After the beginning of spring this year, the drought began, and it has continued until now, and there has been a large shortage of water in the farmland in Jingzhou, and the same is true near Lumen Mountain. The person I sent to inquire about the news reported that Liu Xiu actually boasted that he had found a solution to the water shortage, which is currently in progress. ”
Cai glared at Cai Mao and said, "It's Liu Xiu's limelight again, what a good thing." ”
Cai Mao replied: "Sister is wrong, does my sister really think that Liu Xiu can do it?"
Cai said: "It's hard to say about this. ”
Cai Mao chuckled: "The dilemma caused by drought is not so easy to solve. The lord summoned officials of all sizes in Jingzhou to discuss the matter countless times, trying to solve the matter, but it has always been unresolved. ”
"Even if one or two of the options were slightly feasible, they were not very operable, and they were ultimately rejected. ”
Cai Mao's eyes were confident, and he said, "In my opinion, Liu Xiu can't think of any good way." In the end, Liu Xiu will definitely fail and will not be able to solve the problem of water shortage in Jingzhou. ”
Cai's eyes narrowed and he asked, "What do you mean?"
Cai Mao's implication has been understood.
Obviously, Cai Mao wanted to take the opportunity to make trouble and deal with Liu Xiu.
Cai Mao said: "The news that Liu Xiu wants to solve the water dilemma has not spread for the time being. ”
"I have two thoughts on this. ”
"First, I asked people to spread the news that Liu Xiu had a way to solve the drought in Jingzhou. Once this matter is known, there will definitely be countless people looking for Liu Xiu. With such a big momentum, Liu Xiu will be pushed to the cusp. ”
"Second, please ask my sister to inform the lord of this matter. My sister is Liu Xiu's mother, and it is normal to care about Liu Xiu's news. As long as the lord knows that Liu Xiu has the ability to solve the problem of drought, he will definitely pay close attention to this matter. In the end, he found that Liu Xiu's plan could not be completed, sister, imagine what Liu Xiu's situation would be?"
Cai Mao said with certainty: "Countless people are waiting and waiting for the drought in Jingzhou to be solved. However, Liu Xiu failed in the end, and when the time comes, the people of Jingzhou will inevitably hate Liu Xiu, everyone will shout and beat, and Liu Xiu will definitely have no place to stay. What's more, after the lord loses face, he will definitely hold a grudge against Liu Xiu. At that time, Liu Xiu will really fall into the dust. ”
The whole plan is very simple.
After hearing this, Cai said, "Your plan is good, but you haven't considered a single question." ”
"What's the problem?" asked Cai Mao.
Cai's Danfeng eyes narrowed slightly, and said, "You are thinking about the best outcome, once the worst result occurs, what should you do?" If Liu Xiu solves the problem of water shortage, Liu Xiu's reputation will rise to a higher level." At that time, it was even more difficult to deal with Liu Xiu. ”
Cai Mao chuckled and said, "This question, my brother has naturally considered it. ”
"First, Liu Xiu is a concubine, and with the character of the lord who wants to save face, it is impossible to pass on the position of Jingzhou pastor to Liu Xiu. Therefore, no matter how famous Liu Xiu is, it actually has no impact on Cong'er. What is really worrying is the relationship between Liu Xiu and Liu Qi. ”
"Second, Liu Xiu was in Lumen Mountain and cut off contact with Liu Qi. Moreover, Liu Xiu was far away from the state pastor's mansion, and it was impossible to get involved in the battle between Cong'er and Liu Qi. Therefore, Liu Xiu's high reputation does not affect it. ”
"Third, it was my sister who went to see Liu Xiu, and it was Liu Xiu's responsibility to fail. If it succeeds, it proves that my sister is a mother who really cares about Liu Xiu. The lord must have more trust in his sister, which is also conducive to Cong'er's future development. ”
Cai Mao looked very confident and said, "Once Liu Xiu fails, he will completely fall into the dust, and there will be no chance to turn over." Even if Liu Xiu succeeds, he will only improve his fame, and his impact will not be great. In any case, you can take a gamble. ”
After a pause, Cai Mao said affirmatively: "The most important thing is that I am sure that Liu Xiu will not be able to solve the problem of water shortage. ”
Cai said: "You are so sure!"
Cai Mao said solemnly: "There are so many talented people in Jingzhou, and none of them have come up with a solution to the problem. Do you think a hairy boy who is less than twenty years old can come up with a solution?"
Cai's face showed a rare look of approval, and he approved of Cai Mao's decision.
Cai Mao said: "My sister will inform the lord of this matter as soon as possible, and I will arrange it now and spread the matter." ”
"Hmm!"
Cai got up to see Cai Mao away, and then went back to his bedroom.
After nightfall, Cai's asked the maid and learned that Liu Biao was still handling government affairs, so he went to the kitchen in person, prepared a bowl of chicken soup for Liu Biao, and gave it to Liu Biao to drink, and Cai went back to the bedroom to rest.
After Liu Biao finished handling his official business, he went straight to Cai's room.
Previously, Liu Biao had been recuperating his body and had almost no intimacy with Cai's. Tonight, he couldn't contain the desire that had grown in his heart. Especially when he saw Cai's, Liu Biao felt that he had inexhaustible energy.
Hurriedly took off Cai's clothes, Liu Biao picked up his gun and got on the horse, and quickly pressed on Cai's body.
In the room, there was a faint gasp sound.
After a few moments, the wheezing stopped.
Liu Biao showed a comfortable look on his face, lying aside, but he was a little tired.
Cai's snuggled up beside Liu Biao, his expression was very calm, and after a while, he suddenly spoke: "Husband, the concubine heard the news from the subordinates, saying that Gongzi Xiu's performance in Lumen Mountain is very good. When the cultivator grows up, the husband doesn't have to worry about him. ”
Liu Biao showed a smile on his face and said, "It's rare that you care so much about Xiu'er, thank you for your hard work." ”
Cai said: "They are the children of their husbands, and they are also the children of concubines. ”
"Hahaha, well said!"
Liu Biao's face covered with folds was even more smiling, and he couldn't help laughing.
Cai Shi added: "Because of the dry weather, the farmland around Lumen Mountain is short of water, and after learning about the situation, Gongzi Xiu said that he had thought of a solution to the drought and is currently in action. Soon, the results will be visible. ”
"Oh, really?"
Liu Biao's heart moved, thinking of the current predicament in Jingzhou.
If the water shortage in Lumen Mountain can be alleviated, the drought in Jingzhou can also be alleviated.
Cai Shi smiled lightly and said coquettishly: "The concubine also heard that the cultivator has patted his chest and promised that the drought must be solved." This matter has spread in Xiangyang. ”
Liu Biao's eyes showed a contemplative look, and said: "If it can be done, it will be a good thing." ”
Cai Shi snorted and said, "Husband, it's better to take some time to take a look." As a father, it is natural for the husband to care about the study of his son. In this way, it is normal to go to Lumen Mountain. ”
Liu Biao nodded and said, "You arrange the time, and then tell me." ”
"The concubine understands. ”
The corners of Cai's mouth hooked up a smile, and a fierce color flashed in his eyes.
This time, Liu Xiu must be ruined, and he can no longer pose a threat to Liu Cong
