Chapter 122: Grasping

Cai Mao believes that no matter how she handles Guan Ping at this time, she will not leave.

The tens of thousands of people under his command are very critical to Liu Bei, who is still weak, and if it is not handled well, Yunshan's identity will also be exposed for a long time, which can be called a devastating blow to Liu Beijun.

He asked the servant to arrange Guan Ping's living a little, read and write by himself, and then went to take a nap in a dashing manner.

Hearing the servant's report that Guan Ping was already a little anxious now, Cai Mao was very happy in his heart.

Consume it, consume it.

Young people should polish their minds a little, if they don't have this bit of patience, how can they achieve great things in the future?

But Cai Mao's nap was just awakened by the housekeeper, and the housekeeper told Cai Mao in a panic that Guan Ping was waiting for Cai Mao not to arrive, he was very annoyed, and he actually flicked his sleeves and left directly with his subordinates, and now he has already gotten on the boat and set off.

Cai Mao was taken aback:

"Are you sure? He really got on board. ”

"Yes, yes, I saw him get on the boat and go."

"Why didn't you call me earlier!"

Cai Mao hurriedly put on her shoes and hurried to the riverside, and when she went to the riverside, she had long been unable to see Guan Ping.

He said rather angrily:

"What about people! What about people! There are so many of you, why don't you stop this person! ”

Everyone looked at each other, but the general of Cao Jun and Jiang Xia were too guarding Yunshan, without Cai Mao's order, who would dare to be rude to him?

"I'm still stunned, hurry up and chase after Lao Tzu."

Cai Mao hurriedly ordered the big boat and chased all the way in the direction of Xiangyang, but he went around and found no trace of Guan Ping, and he couldn't help but panic in his heart.

Guan Ping is a child after all, if he really turns his face in anger, wouldn't Cai Mao lose the opportunity to talk about conditions. Liu Bei's conditions are okay, but if Guan Ping is angry and shows Liu Beijun's banner to crusade against him, Cao Cao must know that the relationship between Cai Mao and Liu Bei is irreparable, and Cai Mao's means of negotiating conditions with Cao Cao will be greatly reduced.

For Cai Mao, the most advantageous thing is that both sides are vying to please themselves, if there is a turnaround, it will be a great disaster.

Cai Mao's many big ships chased all the way to Xiangyang, but where was Ping's figure in this water, there was not even Guan Ping's boat on the shore, which made Cai Mao even more frightened, and hurriedly went down the river to find Guan Ping's whereabouts near Jiangxia.

Yunshan is now Jiangxia Taishou, either reporting in the waters of Xiangyang, or returning to Shiyang to stay, there are only these two roads.

But Cai Mao sent his men to chase after him, and he still didn't find Guan Ping's figure until he reached the waters of Xiakou - even if he couldn't see anyone, he could always see his boat. But Guan Ping seemed to evaporate from the world, and there was no whereabouts of him anywhere, seeing Cai Mao wandering around on the river, Xu Huang and Le Jin both sent people to investigate.

Hearing that Yunshan had disappeared, the two generals of the Cao army in Jiangnan and Jiangbei were furious at the same time.

Yes, yes.

General Yunshan was fine before he went to Caizhou, why did he go up and even have no people and boats?

Cai Mao: You still say you didn't do it?

Le Jin was furious, jumped on the shore and scolded Cai Mao angrily, although he couldn't hear what he scolded too far, but Cai Mao's face was still blue and purple, and his heart couldn't help falling.

"What, what's going on?" He grabbed the butler and asked, "What about people?" What about Guan Pingren? Didn't you personally put him on board? ”

The housekeeper was speechless, quickly looked back left and right, and pretended to be stupid and said:

"The master is angry, the master is angry, why, so good to ask about Guan Ping?"

Cai Mao reacted at this time and snorted:

"Okay, okay, where did Yunshan go? Caizhou is only so close to Xiangyang by water, even if others don't see it, at least they have to see the boat, right? It can't be that Jiang Shen invited away!

Find me, I want to see people in life, and I want to see corpses in death! ”

In the next two days, Cai Mao went crazy and scattered his naval army, desperately searching for Guan Ping's whereabouts along the waterway from Xiangyang to Xiakou.

Le Jin lost the general, angry wow wow scream, several times almost wanted to Qi soldiers and horses to fight with Cai Mao, but unfortunately there are only a few ships under his command, and almost all of them are in the hands of Yunshan and Cao Zhi, and now he can only jump to his feet and scold, strongly condemning Cai Mao's behavior, saying that if there is a mistake, all the consequences will be borne by Cai Mao.

Cai Mao was scolded and his head was full of bags, and now even if he told Le Jin that Yunshan was actually Guan Ping, he would never believe it if he wanted to come to Le Jin.

After another three days, Yu Ban, who was temporarily stationed in Wancheng, also sent a letter to send a letter, saying that if Cai Mao could not hand over Yunshan as soon as possible, they would jointly ask Prime Minister Cao Cheng to send troops, and it would be better for Jingzhou not to kill Cai Mao.

Cai Mao really wants to cry now.

He hated himself so much why he had to pinch Guan Ping at that time, obviously he asked Huo Jun to invite Guan Ping to come, and talk about the conditions.

Now that it's like this, Cao Cao doesn't believe it or not, Yunshan is Guan Ping, he has to find a reason to beat Cai Mao.

Liu Bei was also assassinated by Cai Mao before, if he hadn't run away soon, he would definitely feel that Cai Mao had repeated his old tricks when he saw Guan Ping disappearing at this time, and with Liu Bei's violent temper, Jiangling would have to settle with Cai Mao's new hatred and old hatred.

lost such an important person, even if Huang Zhong Huo Jun had a good relationship with Cai Mao, he would definitely not be able to speak for him.

"Is it possible that General Yunshan was actually attacked by Guan Ping and buried in the river?" The old housekeeper asked hesitantly, looking at Cai Mao's murderous gaze, he quickly lowered his head and pretended not to say anything.

Worried that Le Jin and Xu Huang would send a letter to Cao Cao to reveal the matter, Cai Mao hurriedly asked someone to bring a large number of gifts to Xiangyang and Fancheng to visit Le Jin and Xu Huang.

Le Jin and Xu Huang really ate and took the card, and solemnly told Cai Mao that now that the news has reached Nanyang, it is difficult to say where it will be spread, Cai Mao must hurry up to find someone or make some big achievements for the prime minister, otherwise I am afraid that I will not be able to hide it for long.

Cai Mao was very grateful, and in the next five days, she simply scattered all the people in her family, and sent someone to Guan Yu to investigate, looking forward to whether Guan Ping had hid here.

In this way, Cai Mao lived half a month in fear.

In the past half a month, Cai Mao has obviously aged a lot, he is in a hurry, and the previous celebrity faction is completely gone, and his dreams every night almost end with Cao Cao and Liu Bei attacking from the north and south, and slaughtering him.

Just when he was about to collapse, his subordinates finally reported a good news-

"Master, Guan Ping has found it! Guan Ping is back! ”

"Huh?" Cai Mao's red eyes first became bright, and then they became bloodshot again, and there were more tears in her eyes.

"Where, where, quick, take me to him!"

Guan Ping's ship was the same as before, dozens of large and small warships were neatly arranged, without any signs of fighting, and sailed to the waters of Caizhou, Guan Ping seemed to be a little less than before, but his spirit seemed to be better than before.

He got off the boat and bowed to Cai Mao from a distance.

Cai Mao rushed over quickly, and quickly stretched out his hands to help Guan Ping, and even his voice was a little hoarse:

"You, you...... Nephew, where have you been? ”

Guan Ping smiled; "I heard that my uncle was in good health, so I found a place to pray for my uncle, it seems that the ancestors of the Han Dynasty were blessed with blessings, and my uncle's body was very good, and he was able to walk to the river."

The smile on Cai Mao's face froze on the spot, and it took a long time before he smiled:

"Yes, yes, nephew is right. I don't know where the virtuous nephew has gone? ”

Guan Ping smiled and said:

"I heard Ji Chang say that back then, the alchemist Ma Mingsheng lived in Wudang, and the avenue he built was blessed by many gods here, which could ensure the safety of all generations.

I deliberately went to Wudang, looking at my uncle's appearance, there should be the help of the gods, and the younger generation did not go in vain this trip. ”

Cai Mao: ......

To go to Wudang Mountain, you must first park the boat in the upper reaches of the Han River, which is the junction of Jingzhou and Yizhou, no wonder Cai Mao can't find him in the middle and lower reaches of Xiangyang.

Didn't Lao Tzu just dry you for half a day, and you actually let me look for you for half a month......

Cai Mao's eyes were fierce, seeing that he was surrounded by his own servants, and the river was also his own water army, he couldn't help but slowly put his hand on the hilt of the knife.

"Uncle?"

"Hahaha, I said that the gods gave me a dream, and it turned out that you were praying for me. I've been in good shape for a while, and I can even dance with a sword, which is all thanks to my virtuous nephew. Come on, come and rest for a while. ”

Guan Ping has really been resting for half a month.

He asked his subordinates' boats to hide in Shangyong, and he hid back to Xiangyang under the protection of Lejin, and most of the Jingzhou clans did not know Guan Ping's movements, so naturally there was no way to report to Cai Mao.

Under Xiang Lang's narration, Guan Ping still has a little more experience in dealing with the largest family in Jingzhou - although Cai Mao is powerful, it is definitely not a last resort, Liu Biao let him be Jiangxia Taishou and Nanjun Taishou back then, but he is always busy making money and accumulating fame in office, and has been reluctant to use his elite strength to work for Liu Biao, Liu Biao has no choice but to arrange him to Zhangling Taishou This position without any geographical conflict.

Xiang Lang is a loyal fan of Liu Bei like Ma Liang, Ma Liang did not reveal the identity of Yunshan to him, but he also probably guessed that the so-called Yunshan was an important figure in Liu Bei's army, so he took the trouble to explain the local climate of Jingzhou to Guan Ping, and also had a lot of understanding of Cai Mao himself and the people around Da Xian Mountain.

There is a lot of wasteland in the area of Da Xian Mountain, but because of the scarcity of the local population in Jingzhou, so much land can not be developed, so it has to be abandoned. Of course, this place is definitely not as good as the land of the Central Plains before, but ......

The land of the Central Plains is not these people's.

Cao Jun opened up a large amount of wasteland in the Central Plains and fed a lot of people, but this was only to keep them struggling on the line of life and death, and most of the harvest was handed over as taxes, and being a soldier was counted as conscription, and everyone was miserable. Although the land in Jingzhou was barren, Guan Ping collected very little tax and did not have to perform additional miscellaneous labor, which made those Cao soldiers who surrendered very happy, looking forward to this year's harvest, and had a great sense of belonging to this land.

Seeing Guan Ping's arrival, these people who had never been in Liu Bei's army for a day were all smiling, and they gratefully sent Guan Ping the sour and bitter wild fruits and clear sweet springs in the mountains, and gave them their best output.

Although Xiang Lang thought that he should not take too much care of these people, after seeing the beaming expressions on their faces when they were farming, Guan Ping suddenly had a more different understanding of the base area.

To do it, start with Jingzhou.

When these fields are spread all over Jingzhou, Cai Mao will be no threat.

If it is spread all over the world......

Dahan must be more powerful than he imagined.
