Liu Jian is not a person who is used to procrastinating, and waiting is not his style of doing things, but he really needs to plan carefully, after all, this matter of becoming the master of Guanzhong is a big deal, and it is related to his future.

As Xun Yu talked to Gongsun Zan in Youzhou in the past, if this matter is successful, the hegemony can be achieved.

It is precisely because this matter is related to the highest ceiling of Liu Jian's hegemony that Liu Jianxian can't make an easy move, he must be steady, accurate, and ruthless, and handle this matter properly.

So, he decided to take a look at Liu Xie, the king of Chen Liu, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

It seems that he hasn't seen Liu Xie for a long time, and according to his age, Liu Xie is now half an adult.

At the age of fourteen or fifteen, he is no longer the ignorant boy he just rescued.

It's just that over the years, under Liu Jin's careful cultivation, what has Liu Xie become?

After all, this kid also has a history of history, whether it is in the hands of Dong Zhuo or under the control of Cao Cao, Liu Xie does not seem to be so honest.

Always want to turn over the serf to put the singing.

Of course, now is different from history, Liu Jian cultivated him in a more absurd direction.

And a few years ago, it seemed to be paying off.

But what the specific situation is now, Liu Jian is a little uncertain.

Therefore, after having a preliminary understanding of the situation in Guanzhong with Xun Yu, Liu Jian went to meet Liu Xie.

In any case, Liu Xie is Chen Liuwang, and he was rescued by himself at the beginning, he has to see how good Liu Xie is now.

He has been operating in Hebei for so many years, and he has encountered too many things, and there are too many things to deal with, so he didn't care too much about personally manipulating Liu Xie's growth.

Most of the things were handed over to Liu Jin, and of course, Liu Jin was also under the supervision of Liu Jian's confidants and descendants of General Liu Jian's mansion.

After all, this person's predecessor was Zhang Rang, so it's not okay not to pay attention to it.

What kind of person Zhang Rang is, everyone in this world knows it.

Liu Jian is even clearer.

But if you trust him completely, it won't work.

The last time we met was when Liu Jin helped regulate Liu Jian's son, as well as Xiao Guanping, Xiao Zhang Bao and others.

Time has passed, and when they met this time, Liu Jian felt that Zhang Rang had aged a lot.

This is also normal, he is also old, it is time to be old.

After seeing Liu Jian, Zhang Rang was very excited, one yes gave up, and shouted: General, General.

No matter what Zhang Rang did before, he is an old man after all, and in reality, Zhang Rang did nothing before, but he never hurt Liu Jian.

Even if he had the idea, he didn't succeed at the time.

Therefore, Liu Jian's feelings for Zhang Rang are still relatively normal.

I don't annoy him, I don't complain about him, but I don't think he is good.

"Liu Jin, I haven't seen you for a while, you're getting older."

Zhang Rang smacked his lips and sighed helplessly: "What about this person, it is easy to look old after sixty years, the old slave was not like this last year, but look at this year, hey, no way, this is everyone's fixed number, and you can't hide if you want to." ”

Liu Jian sighed and said: "Life is impermanent, and life is short. ”

"Sometimes if you think about it carefully, after spending so much effort, busy fighting for it, the final result is not to become a touch of loess, what is the point of these things?"

Zhang Rang said with a smile: "General, it's a little far away if you think about this, you are in the prime of spring and autumn, where is the time to think about this, you look at the old slave, I don't think about this, the old slave thinks that I can live for at least another twenty years." ”

When Liu Jian heard this, he couldn't help laughing.

"You're very powerful, ambitious, more far-reaching than I thought."

When Liu Jin heard this, he smiled dryly.

"What about the king? Where is the king? How's the king doing? ”

Liu Jian threw these three questions to Liu Jin in a row.

Sure enough, Liu Jin deserved to be the one who served the emperor.

He immediately said seriously: "The king is fine, the king is in the leopard room right now, the king has been the same day for several years, every day is just for fun, and nothing else." The general is relieved though. ”

Liu Jian smiled and nodded when he heard this.

"It is worthy of being the person favored by the first emperor, he is really smart, and at the age of sixty, he has not reacted at all."

Liu Jin smiled, laughing very embarrassed.

"The general's words are a bit embarrassing to me."

"Haha, how dare I shame you, don't you know about our relationship? Speaking of which, you're still my old-timer...... Well, don't say more, lead me to the king. ”

Liu Jian had spoken, so Liu Jin naturally didn't dare to be killed, so he immediately led Liu Jian away.

Behind the Chenliu Palace, there was once a vacant lot, next to Zhangshui, but now it is used by Liu Xie to build a leopard house.

The leopard house is full of rare and exotic beasts transported from all over the world, not to mention the leopards, as well as wild wolves and wild deer. Wild boars, and even black bears and tigers.

Not to mention how much manpower it takes to arrest these exotic beasts, the daily feeding alone is a huge expense.

Regarding the establishment of such a luxurious leopard room for Chen Liuwang, the officials in Hebei actually have very opinions.

The official documents of officials from all over Jizhou accusing Chen Liuwang of extravagance often fell on the table of Liu Jian's shogunate, and his secretary team reported to him in real time, but Liu Jian ignored them all.

And not only the officials in various places, but also Tian Feng, Fu Zhu, Ju Pei and others often complained to Liu Jian about this matter, especially Tian Feng, when he mentioned Chen Liuwang, he gritted his teeth angrily, as if Chen Liuwang and he had a gritted gritted against his father.

However, Liu Jian advocates thrift in other places, and it is in the matter of Chen Liuwang that he maintains a different attitude.

No matter how poor you are, you can't be poor Liu Xie, and no matter how bitter you are, you can't be bitter king.

This is a thing that Liu Jian is very sure of.

Soon, the two men entered the leopard room.

Liu Jian has forgotten what a zoo is like for so many years, and as soon as he entered the leopard room, he was really a little unaccustomed to it, and he found a little bit of a zoo feeling in the future.

There are small animals everywhere, and big animals are also locked up.

Liu Xie's taste is still relatively elegant. Not only some beasts are kept in cages for ornamental purposes, but also some small animals are used for frolicking and watching, in short, the category is relatively comprehensive.

Of course, species such as elephants, rhinos, and polar bears are absolutely absent in this leopard house.

Today's Liu Xie seems to be having a good time.

He brought in two new wild leopards for adults, both of whom had been starved for days, and then Liu Xie put them in the same cage and threw a piece of venison that was not enough to feed the two of them.

Leopards are solitary animals, and when they are hungry and have insufficient food, they will naturally fight to the death for survival, and their wildness is fully reflected.

There is already a fourteen-year-old Liu Xie, and at this moment, he is standing not far from the two leopards, shouting and cheering.

Fourteen-year-old Liu Xie vaguely still looks like him a few years ago, but his height has grown a lot over the years, and his height is almost as tall as Liu Jian's shoulders, and he is obviously already a half-old young man.

However, although his height and age have grown, he has not grown much.

is still as squirming as Liu Jian expected.

Of course, he also cultivated Liu Xie in this direction.

"Bite, bite, bite!" Liu Xie waved his arms while shouting at the two leopards who were desperately fighting in the cage.

Liu Jian looked at Liu Xie who was dancing over there, and couldn't help but think of those crazy star-chasing stars in later generations, or people who smashed beer bottles when watching TV shows.

It's like, that feeling, that obsession.

It's just that when the star chasers of later generations go crazy, they are generally chasing stars.

And now Liu Xie is chasing leopards.

But no matter what, in the end, he still has his own responsibilities for becoming like this.

I saw that I was going to Chang'an.

If you go to Chang'an, this ridiculous king is still indispensable to participate.

I should have a good relationship with him today......

Before going to Chang'an, it's time for everyone to make a difference with each other.

"Minister, meet the king."
