Chapter 399: Family Affairs

Due to Liu Biao's serious illness, Cai Yu, Cai Mao and others were afraid that something would happen, so they implemented a curfew in the city.

Liu Bei, Liu Qi and others rushed to the city of Xiangyang overnight, but they were not allowed to enter the city.

It was not until the next morning, when the gates were opened, that they went towards the city.

"Uncle Liu, eldest son, please stay!"

The one who spoke was a military general who was eight feet tall, with a face like red dates, and an extraordinary bearing.

Liu Qi glanced at him carefully and recognized the identity of the other party,

"It turned out to be General Wenchang, I don't know what the general has to do?"

Not bad.

This person is Wei Yan, the general responsible for guarding Xiangyang City.

Wei Yan saluted Liu Bei and Liu Qi, and said respectfully,

"The state pastor has ordered that no soldiers and horses shall enter the city without his consent."

"My father is seriously ill, did he give this order, or did my stepmother give this order?"

Liu Qi asked dissatisfiedly.

Wei Yan's face was embarrassed,

"Eldest prince, don't make it difficult for the general."

Liu Qi's face sank, and he just wanted to have a seizure, but was stopped by Liu Bei.

"Childe, don't be impatient, let's go into the city first."

When Liu Qi heard this, he said stupidly,

"Okay, just listen to my uncle."

Liu Bei and Liu Qi left their soldiers and horses outside the city and handed them over to Xu Shu's care.

They took Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhuge Liang and others to the Chengzhong Prefecture Pastoral Mansion.

But as soon as the group walked into the state pastor's mansion, they were blocked by Cai Mao, who got the news.

"What happened when the eldest prince returned?"

Cai Mao said lightly.

"I heard that my father is critically ill, and as a son of man, I should come back to visit."

Liu Qi said in a deep voice.

"The state pastor trusts the eldest prince, and orders the eldest prince to guard Xinye. However, there was no military order, but you and Uncle Liu Huang left their posts without permission. If he let the state pastor know, he was afraid that he would be angry and aggravate his condition. ”

Cai Mao sneered,

"The eldest prince might as well go back quickly, and when the state pastor is in good health, it won't be too late to come back to visit."

"General Deju, you're going too far! As the son of a state shepherd, don't I even have the right to visit my father? ”

Liu Qi was furious and was about to break inside!

Cai Mao didn't answer, but just glanced at the soldiers on the side and motioned for them to stop Liu Qi!

"I'll see who dares to do it!"

Zhang Fei, who has always been short-tempered, stood up with the Zhangba snake spear.

Although Guan Yu on the side did not speak, his body also exuded a murderous aura!

The two are brave and known to the world.

Seeing that the two of them intended to do it, Cai Mao and the others couldn't help but be intimidated.

Just when the scene was at a stalemate for a while, a pleasant voice came,

"Who's making a fuss here?"

Everyone looked up and saw Cai Yu, who had a charming temperament and a graceful figure, slowly walked out of the backyard.

"I've seen my mother!"

Liu Qi hurriedly lowered his head and saluted Cai Yu.

"I've seen Madame!"

Others saluted.

"Qi'er's filial piety, mother knows."

Cai Yu said softly,

"But now that your father is seriously ill, the doctor has said that he needs to recuperate, and no one should disturb him. It's good for you to make noise in the house with people, can't you really hope that your father will die of illness? ”

The Han Dynasty attached great importance to filial piety.

If he is labeled as unfilial, Liu Qi will never be able to turn over!

"The mother misunderstood, the child was just worried about the father's body!"

Liu Qi explained with a look of trepidation.

"Don't worry, if anything happens to your father, I'll send someone to inform you. Now you still take people and return to Xinye quickly, so as not to be exploited by Cao Jun! ”

Cai Yu ordered.

"Child...... Yes, sir! ”

Liu Qi nodded helplessly.

Now that Liu Biao is seriously ill, the entire state pastoral mansion must obey the orders of the main mother Cai Yu.

Although Liu Qi is not dealing with Cai Yu, Cai Yu is his nominal mother, and he does not dare to be disobedient openly!

After Liu Qi, Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang and others left, Cai Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Second sister, why don't you just do it?"

Cai Mao snorted coldly.

"Are you really brainless?"

Cai Yu glared at him,

"Then Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who can you take care of?"

"Even if you can really clean them both up, what are you going to do with Liu Qi?"

Cai Mao opened her mouth, but she didn't know how to answer.

As Cai Yu said, even if Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are really cleaned up, how to deal with Liu Qi is a big trouble.

As the eldest son, Liu Qi has a gentle temperament and has a good relationship with officials of all sizes in Jingzhou.

Now that Liu Biao has not really died, whether Liu Qi is killed or arrested, he will be opposed by others in Jingzhou!

"Before the arrival of the general's soldiers and horses, we must not act rashly and defend Xiangyang City."

Cai Yu admonished.

"Good!"

Cai Mao nodded heavily, turned his head and shouted,

"General Zhongye!"

"The last general!"

A burly military general with a resolute face stepped out of the crowd.

He is the general of Jingzhou.

"You go to guard the city gate immediately, and you are not allowed to let any soldiers and horses enter the city without my order, understand?"

Cai Mao said in a deep voice.

"The last general commands!"

Wen Ping immediately led a team of men and horses towards the city gate.

"Second sister, rest assured, Wen Zhongye is strong and brave, with him guarding the city gate, the eldest prince and Liu Bei's soldiers and horses will definitely not be able to enter."

Cai Mao smiled at Cai Yu and said.

Cai Yu nodded, her beautiful eyes looking at the far north.

Yang Lang, Yang Lang, you have to hurry up, the concubine can't hold on!

……

When he left the state pastoral mansion, Liu Qi's face turned red with anger,

"This poisonous woman didn't even let me see my father's face! Uncle, Mr. Kong Ming, why didn't you speak just now? ”

Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang glanced at each other and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

What happened just now is, in the final analysis, Liu Biao's family affairs, as guests, how can they be embarrassed to meddle in other people's family affairs?

"Could it be that we have to watch that slut dedicate Jingzhou to Cao Cao?"

Liu Qi was unwilling to say authentically.

"Of course not!"

Zhuge Liang shook his head,

"Eldest prince, do you have any cronies in the city?"

Liu Qi hesitated for a moment, nodded and said,

"It's true!"

"Tonight, you can let them open the city gate for internal response, so that we can take Xiangyang City."

Zhuge Liang said in a deep voice.

"What?! This...... How does this work? ”

Liu Qi was taken aback.

His father Liu Biao is still alive, if he storms Xiangyang City, he is afraid that he will be scolded by the world for being unfilial!

"Hurry up! If the eldest prince doesn't want to sit back and watch Yang Ling and Mrs. Cai succeed, there is only this way. ”

Zhuge Liang sighed.

"It is really commendable that the eldest prince can have such filial piety. If it really doesn't work, let's go south to Jiangxia and take refuge in Huang Taishou. ”

Liu Bei comforted.

Liu Qi was unwilling.

Although he didn't want to be infamous for being unfilial, he didn't want to sit back and watch Cai Yu dedicate Xiangyang City to Yang Ling!

"Maybe it's still early, the eldest prince will think about it carefully."

Zhuge Liang suggested.

Everyone didn't say anything anymore and left Xiangyang City together.

They rested outside the city for a while, and until the sun set, Liu Qi still did not make up his mind.

At this moment, there was dust and smoke billowing in the distance, and a large number of cavalry seemed to be coming!
