Chapter 256: Choosing an Heir

Wen Ping glanced at Liu Xiu with concern, then came to Liu Biao's side, hugged his fists and said: "Lord, the last general is late for rescue, please forgive your sins." ”

Liu's surface was slightly pale, and he waved his hand and said, "It's okay to come just in time." ”

Cai Mao was arrested, Liu Biao's heart also relaxed, and in an instant, Liu Biao felt a wave of dizziness in his brain, his eyes closed, and his side was paralyzed.

Seeing this, Wen Ping hurriedly supported Liu Biao.

Liu Xiu was worried about Liu Biao's safety, so he hurriedly asked Wen Ping to put Liu Biao on the bed, and then ordered someone to call the doctor, and asked Wen Ping to deal with the matter after the fight. Zhao Yun didn't stay, and left directly.

Next, Wen Ping asked the soldiers to clean the study and the courtyard outside, and then asked the soldiers to retire and temporarily stationed in the state pastoral mansion to ensure the safety of the state pastoral mansion.

In the room, Liu Xiuwen sat opposite each other.

It didn't take long for Yi Kuai Yue and others to come to the room.

The four of them sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Liu Biao on the bed, with a worried look in their eyes.

After the doctor arrived, he began to take Liu Biao's pulse. It's just that the more he checks the pulse, the more serious the doctor's expression becomes. After a full half an hour, the doctor stopped checking the pulse, and then checked Liu Biao's eyes and tongue coating one by one.

After the diagnosis, the doctor sighed lightly and said, "Master Xiu, Liu Jingzhou's condition is very poor, and it is estimated that it will only be a matter of the next few days, so hurry up and prepare, and mourn and change." ”

"Ahh

Liu Xiu was surprised and said, "Doctor, how can this be?"

This situation surprised Liu Xiu.

Even, Liu Xiu didn't even have any preparation. Although Liu Biao is dead, Liu Xiu now has the opportunity to take over Jingzhou and exclude Liu Qi.

However, what Liu Xiu values most is not the position of Jingzhou Mu, but the power in his hands.

Liu Biao died suddenly, Liu Xiu didn't even control Changsha County, and Yuzhang County only got a small half, and he didn't take all of it. As for the other counties in Jingzhou, they were not under Liu Xiu's control. If you wait another year or two, when Liu Biao dies in history, Liu Xiu's preparation will be more adequate.

However, the sudden situation now disrupted Liu Xiu's rhythm and made Liu Xiu feel in a hurry.

Liu Xiu asked, "Doctor, is there no other way?"

The doctor shook his head and said, "There's no way, Liu Jingzhou's body is already very weak, and today he should have experienced great sorrow and anger, causing his emotions to lose control." When he vomited blood, it hurt his heart even more. He had already lost too much energy, and his energy was seriously lacking, and it was difficult to persevere. ”

Liu Xiu sighed lightly: "Thank you." ”

"Please mourn"

The doctor sighed and turned away.

The three of them looked at each other, and they all understood.

Yi said: "Xiu Gongzi, the lord is seriously ill"

Liu Xiu said: "Mr. Jibo, if there is anything, let's talk about it later, let me accompany my father." ”

"No"

Yi got up, Kuai Yue and Wen Ping also got up, and left the study with them.

Liu Xiu sat in the room, looking at Liu Biao, who was lying on the bed, his face was like earth, and he had completely lost his brilliance, and he couldn't help but sigh lightly in his heart. Even though Liu Biao has ignored it since he was a child, he has not fulfilled his father's responsibilities, and even Liu Biao hates him. But with his rise, Liu Biao gradually changed his opinion of him, and he also appreciated and loved him.

However, Liu Biao has now stepped into the ghost gate with one foot, and it is difficult to persevere. Liu Xiu's heart was also sad. No matter what, no matter what Liu Biao has done, this is his father after all.

"Idiot, don't worry, it's not a big deal. ”

Suddenly, Liu Biao came to his senses. He saw Liu Xiu's solemn expression, so he opened his mouth to comfort him. Especially when he saw the wounds on Liu Xiu's body and the blood all over his body, he felt a little ashamed of Liu Xiu.

However, when he thought of the dead Liu Cong, Liu Biao's heart was filled with remorse.

Kill the son

Killing his wife

He did both.

killed Cai's family, Liu Biao had no regrets at all, the only one was Liu Cong, he unjustly killed Liu Cong.

Liu Xiu had a smile on his face and comforted: "Father cultivates well, the doctor said, you are fine, and you will recover soon." ”

Liu Biao said: "The old man has heard what the doctor said just now, but he is not completely awake. You don't have to comfort the old man, just die, it's not a big deal. ”

When Liu Xiu heard this, he didn't know how to persuade for a while.

Liu Biao instructed: "You are also injured, go down and wash yourself, and then let the doctor bandage it, don't leave the patient behind." You call Kuai Liang and Wen Ping, the old man has something to say to them. ”

"Yes"

Liu Xiu nodded, got up and walked out of the room.

Out of the room, Liu Xiu immediately sent someone to call back Yi Kuai Yue and Wen Ping, and said, "Father wants to see you." ”

"What's the matter?" asked Ichi.

Liu Xiu shook his head and said, "My father didn't reveal it, Mr. Ji Bo invited, I'll go wash up." ”

Yi nodded and entered the room with Kuai Yue and Wen Ping.

"I'm from Iraq, meet my lord. ”

"Kuai Yue, meet the lord. ”

"Wen Ping, meet the lord. ”

The three of them bowed at the same time, and then stood next to Liu Biao.

Liu Biao's expression was gray, his face was already haggard, he felt uncomfortable in his chest, groaned, and ordered: "Uncle Ji, put a quilt on my back, I want to sit up." ”

Yi Yuan hurriedly stepped forward, put a quilt on Liu Biao's back, and helped Liu Biao lean on it.

Liu Biao leaned against the quilt and was much better. He said in a low tone and in a hoarse voice: "I invited the three of you here to discuss the question of who will inherit Jingzhou." The old man heard the doctor's words just now. The old man's life is short, and arrangements must be made in advance. Previously, Xiu'er had suggested that the old man directly appoint an heir. But the old man thought about it, but he didn't settle down. So, call you and ask for your opinions. ”

Yi said: "I support the decision of the lord, and whoever the lord chooses, he will serve for whomever he wants." ”

Kuai Yue said: "I am like this too. ”

Wen Ping Zhengse said: "My lord, the same is true for the last general." ”

The answers of all three were vague, and there was no substantive answer at all.

Liu Biao shook his head and said undoubtedly: "You don't need to push each other now, what you have to do now is to say what you really think." Qi'er and Xiu'er, who do you think is more suitable This is a major matter related to the future of Jingzhou, and we must not be sloppy, we must be cautious. ”

After finishing speaking, Liu Biao looked at the three of them.

The three of them are still sudden.

Liu Biao saw that several people were reluctant to speak, so he directly named and said, "Uncle Ji, you speak first." ”

Yi replied: "My lord, I think it is more suitable to cultivate my son." ”

"Reason," Liu Biao asked.

Yi replied, "Actually, Prince Qi is kind and gentle, and he is also a suitable heir. If it is Qi Gongzi who governs Jingzhou, it will not be bad. ”

"However, Qi Gongzi's character is flawed, not decisive enough, and suitable for a peaceful and prosperous era. ”

"In the Taiping period, Qi Gongzi was able to govern Jingzhou very well. But now it is a troubled time, Cao Thief in the north is eyeing him, Sun Quan in the east is ready to move, and Liu Bei's mind in Nanyang County is also unpredictable. Especially now that Gongzi Qi has gone to Nanyang County, he has become one with Liu Bei, and the situation is even more complicated. ”

Yi Ji had a straight face and said: If Gongzi Qi inherits Jingzhou, I am afraid that the foundation that the lord has worked so hard to build will be taken away by Liu Bei. On the other hand, Gongzi Xiu has a decisive personality, and he is also mature and spicy, and he can calm the scene. With the cultivation of the son, the foundation created by the lord can continue to be passed on. ”

His words did not suppress Liu Qi, nor did he praise Liu Xiu, but just expressed his views impartially
