Chapter Eighty-Four: The Struggle for Position
Liu Bei received a letter from Li Hui to himself. Liu Bei looked at it and said with a smile: Sure enough, as expected by the military advisor, this Li Hui also thought of this trick, since this is the case, I will go to Xiangyang, and I will meet the eldest son Liu Qi.
Zhuge Liang nodded: The lord remembers, he must persuade Liu Qi to guard Jiangxia, this place is the closest to Eastern Wu, and it is the 'intersection' meeting point of the Xiangjiang River and the Great River, it has been an important military town since ancient times, only we control Jiangxia, it will be difficult for Cao's 'Cao' army to go south again, so as to buy time for Sun Quan and Li Hui, and it can also be used as a weight to contain Sun Quan in the future!
Liu Bei nodded: I see that Liu Qi and I are quite harmonious on weekdays, and this matter is on me.
Li Hui stood in the middle of a group of literati and artists, and was looked at like a monkey. These people are all friends of Liu Biao, known as Jingzhou Bajun, Chen Xiang, Fan Peng, Kong Yu, Fan Kang, Tan Fu, Zhang Jian, Cen Hui, plus Liu Biao, all of whom are sour literati.
Liu Biao smiled and said: Everyone, look at it, this is that beggar!
Everyone nodded, Cen Hui 'touched' his beard, and shook his head: Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun are also celebrities, how could they fall in love with such a person, strange, strange!
Fan Kang said while writing: The hero is unparalleled in the world, the famous 'door' is still thinking about it, looking at the 'jade' pillar of the sky, sighing at the sea gold beam, and asking himself such characters, how to save my Han Dynasty!
Ok, good, good! Everyone applauded. Fan Pan exclaimed: Good endowment! It is a portrayal of today, Mr. Fan's outstanding writing and quick thinking, I admire, admire!
Li Hui couldn't bear it anymore, and said angrily: You bad old men, everyone Cao '' to the 'door' of your house, and you are still dancing here to 'get' ink, and you still have a face for me! I'm ashamed of you!
You! Several people opened their mouths one by one, and the elegant conversation and laughter just now were swept away.
Bold Li Hui! Liu Biao saw that Li Hui actually despised him, and said angrily: How dare you be presumptuous in my home? What kind of system?
Physique, good! Then how can it be v, what is the system! Li Hui took a golden knife and went to Chen Xiang's several cases, and Chen Xiang immediately retreated: You are Jingzhou Mu, I am Youzhou Thorn History, the same big; You are the general of Zhennan, I am the general of Anbei, I am older than you, you are the Marquis of Chengwu, a marquis with a vain name, I am the Marquis of Ji, and I am also a county marquis, so I am a little older than you, why do you see the official and bow down, and I will be in the same system?
You! Liu Biao was a little angry, moved his mouth, and didn't speak.
Liu Zhou Mu is a relative of the emperor, who are you? Kong Yu said.
Li Hui smiled: Imperial relatives? Since Gaozu has eight sons, we don't have many, and no one has eight sons, so calculated, preaching to you here, how many relatives of the emperor and the country, as many as cattle 'hair', what is worthless, the goods are the same, the people are the same, you are the descendants of Gaozu, I ask you, how much Gaozu's blood do you still have?
A few old guys couldn't support it. Tanshiki shouted loudly: Come on, come on! Pull this rebellious Li Hui out for me!
Cai Mao heard clearly outside the 'door', pursed her lips and chuckled, stopped the sergeant's intention to come in, and waved her hand to lead the sergeant to stay away. Tanshiki shouted for a long time, but no one came in. Liu Biao had already been angry at this time. Li Hui said: You guys, reason with me, that is, you will bring about your own destruction, and you will come to see you with good intentions, but O Niang actually teased me, let me go, and cut you all one by one!
Mrs. Cai learned that Liu Biao was scolded by Li Hui and fainted, and cried for a long time with a handful of snot and tears. Hurriedly sent someone to find his younger brother Cai Mao.
Mrs. Cai wiped the tears on her face and cried: Why don't you hurry up and arrest that Li Hui for me, see if you make your brother-in-law angry! Your brother-in-law has three longs and two shorts, how can we live! Woo woo\\
Cai Mao was stunned for a moment, and ordered with a straight face: You all go down! My wife and I have a talk!
The people withdrew from the 'door' one after another. Cai Mao closed the 'door' of the room and said in a low voice: Sister is not sad, I know about this matter, I was outside the 'flower' garden at the time, and I didn't let the soldiers go in to get people!
Why is that? Mrs. Cai stopped crying.
Cai Mao leaned down and whispered in Mrs. Cai's ear: Doesn't my sister want my nephew to sit in this Jingzhou seat? As soon as the brother-in-law dies, can't the nephew do it for granted?
Mrs. Cai was shocked: Second brother! This\\!
Cai Mao said: Now that Cao's '' army is pressing, we have all persuaded my brother-in-law to make up my mind early, but my brother-in-law just didn't listen, it dragged on for so long, the person who sent the letter, Cao '' was very unhappy, in case my brother-in-law and Cao's '' confronted, don't let you and me 'live', that is, our Cai family may not be guaranteed!
Mrs. Cai thought about it: Ke Cong'er is just a child, and Liu Qi is here, no matter how good you and I discuss, I'm afraid that her subordinates won't agree, so why is Liu Qi also the eldest son!
Cai Mao sneered: Sister don't worry, only my sister agrees to this matter, I will help you do the rest, the military power of Jingzhou is in my hands, Liu Qi will definitely not be able to turn over any wind and 'waves', and my nephew will definitely sit in the big position smoothly!
The second brother can't come nonsense! Mrs. Cai hurriedly persuaded: Although Liu Qi is not my own child, he is also your brother-in-law's flesh and blood, and he usually calls you uncle, don't deceive people too much!
Sister! Why are you so kind to others? Cai Mao said: If Liu Qi doesn't die, how can his nephew's position be stable? How can you and I be steadfast in our hearts?
Can! Mrs. Cai hesitated, not sure to pay attention.
Sister don't care, I'll do the rest! Cai Mao stood up: Just take good care of your brother-in-law! Cai Mao turned around, opened the 'door' and walked out.
In the afternoon of the same day, Liu Biao miraculously woke up, and the whole house was overjoyed. While Mrs. Cai sent someone to hurry up to ask for a doctor, she knelt in front of Liu Biao's window and cried: "Husband! You're awake, it's good to be awake, it's good to be awake!
Liu Biao looked at Mrs. Cai coldly: Go and find Liu Qi!
The subordinates quickly called Liu Qi, who was kneeling outside the 'door', into the house. Liu Qi was also very happy, with tears on his face: Father, you finally woke up, I will go and kill that Li Hui!
Liu Biao waved his hand: Forget it, although Li Hui is rude, there are a few people who are reasonable, for his father, his body has a premonition, and he will not anger others! Liu Biao looked at Mrs. Cai on the side, and continued: Now that Cao's '' soldiers are hoarding Runan, it is for Jiangdong, and everyone can see it clearly, Jingzhou is probably not guaranteed!
Father! The child is willing to lead the troops to fight to the death with Cao 'Cao'! Liu Qi said immediately.
Liu Biao nodded: My son is so ambitious, I am very happy for my father, but what I am worried about is not Cao '', but Sun Quan, I want you to go to Jiangxia, are you willing!
The child doesn't go there, the child is by the father's side! Liu Qi cried like a tearful man.
Liu Biao caressed Liu Qi's head lovingly, looked at Mrs. Cai on the side, looked up to the sky and sighed a few times, and then fainted again.
