The Three Kingdoms Began with the Abduction of Luoshen - Chapter 211
Time goes by.
Liu Bei was inspecting the troops and horses in the camp, and suddenly someone came to report that news of Liu Biao had been sent to Xinye.
Hearing this, Liu Bei couldn’t help but feel a little curious.
Although he is temporarily stationed in Xinye, he can be regarded as Liu Biao’s younger brother, but he has not entered the core circle of Jingzhou. In other words, Liu Biao didn’t really value Liu Bei very much.
If that’s the case, why do you come to the door now?
But since the message was sent in Liu Biao’s name, it was naturally impossible for Liu Bei to refuse. He called Guan Yu and Zhang Fei two brothers, simply arranged a wave, and wanted to leave.
After all, he and Liu Biao were both royal relatives, at least nominally a family, so it was impossible for Liu Biao to engage him directly. Now go to Xiangyang for a walk, but there is no need to worry too much.
However, Guan Yu frowned slightly, hesitatingly said:
“If my brother is going to Xiangyang, I’d better take my brothers with me. Otherwise, in the event of an accident, I can’t help you in Xinye at all, and then it will be really troublesome.”
Zhang Fei is the same.
He has indeed suffered a lot over the years, and he was tricked by Lu Bu that year. Now I also feel that there are not many good people in Jingzhou anyway, so I am naturally not at ease.
However, Liu Bei waved his hand and said:
“Second brother, third brother, don’t worry, you are not going alone for your brother. You will go with Zilong later, and you will train your soldiers here for the time being. Don’t worry about me.”
In this case, the two reluctantly nodded.
After all, they also know that Zhao Yun is powerful, and he is not inferior to them. It is still very safe to have Zhao Yun with him.
Even if someone really did something wrong, Zhao Yun would still be shocked.
When he was ready, Liu Bei didn’t delay, he called Zhao Yun directly, and went to Xiangyang with a few followers.
…
At this moment, in the city of Xiangyang.
Liu Biao was resting on the bed, and beside him sat a pretty woman who was gently mortgaging him.
Liu Biao closed his eyes and said slowly:
“What do you think Liu Xuande is like, Madam?”
The pretty woman is Liu Biao’s current wife and Cai Mao’s younger sister, the very beautiful Mrs. Cai.
Mrs. Cai heard Liu Biao’s words and said:
“Liu Bei and her husband are both relatives of the Han clan, and they are originally related to the same clan. Moreover, Liu Bei is in the name of benevolence and righteousness, and he is not a mediocre person. If the husband can use it, it is a good thing.”
Liu Biao smiled when he heard the words, nodded and said:
“What the madam said is reasonable. The old man also thinks that Xuande is really good. If he can help my son, I can feel a lot more at ease, but your brother and the others don’t think so.
Does Madam think Liu Bei is ambitious? “
Seeing Liu Biao’s questioning, Mrs. Cai was also hesitant, but it didn’t last long. She said:
“Uncle Liu is naturally ambitious, but in the name of benevolence and righteousness, if your husband makes good use of it, you don’t need to worry too much. If he really does something treachery, he will lose his reputation.”
Liu Biao nodded thoughtfully and continued to lie down to rest.
That’s what people are like when they get old, and their energy is getting worse, but Liu Biao doesn’t want to explain anything.
He had already sent a letter to Liu Bei, asking him to go to Xiangyang, saying that he had something important to discuss with him.
But in fact, it was Liu Biao who wanted to test Liu Bei.
In fact, it is normal for Liu Biao to have such worries. After all, Liu Biao also knows that Liu Bei is an extraordinary person. But he is old now, and it is impossible to be as reckless as before.
If he died, would his son really be able to deter Liu Bei?
Liu Biao was not sure, so he wanted to test Liu Bei.
While he is still in good health, let’s see what Liu Bei thinks. It’s like someone reported the news recently that Liu Bei is recruiting troops and wants to recruit Jingzhou talents.
This was not necessarily aimed at Liu Biao, but he still felt uncomfortable.
This kind of thing is normal.
…
on the way.
Liu Bei rode on his horse, followed by a fierce general in battle armor, riding a white horse under his crotch.
This person is praised by everyone in later generations, the valiant general Changshan Zhao Zilong who entered and exited seven times from Changbanpo.
While walking, Liu Bei asked:
“Zilong, do you think we went to Xiangyang, is there any fraud?”
Zhao Yun’s pupils shrank, and he was indeed worried about this. After all, even Guan Yu and the others are not worried about this.
However, Zhao Yun didn’t want to change Liu Bei’s choice, but his eyes narrowed and he said solemnly:
“The lord is very personable. Even if the last commander fought his life, he would let the lord leave Xiangyang suddenly.”
Liu Bei shook his head with a wry smile and said:
“Zilong doesn’t have to worry so much, I know your loyalty naturally, but it hasn’t reached this level yet.”
Although Liu Bei was not sure what Liu Biao wanted him to do in Xiangyang, he was very clear that at least Liu Biao himself could not directly attack him, and the relationship was not simple.
Everyone is their own. Killing Liu Bei at this moment will definitely not eliminate the subsequent influence so easily.
Although Liu Bei has no power, the fame accumulated over the years has made him a benchmark.
Uncle Liu is no joke.
As soon as his thoughts changed, Liu Bei didn’t think too much about it. Anyway, he just had to do his own thing and take care of so much.
In fact, Liu Bei also knew that the people who were really hostile to him should be Cai Mao and other Jingzhou families.
These do require vigilance.
Xiangyang is not far from Xinye, and soon Liu Bei and his party arrived in Xiangyang.
And go into the city.
Liu Biao had already arranged for someone to receive him.
But this is Xiangyang City, and Zhao Yun’s current status obviously cannot follow Liu Bei all the time.
This time Liu Biao’s name was a banquet, and generals like Zhao Yun were sent to other places.
Zhao Yun was naturally a little worried. After all, his mission here was to ensure Liu Bei’s safety. If they were separated, how could he possibly protect Liu Bei?
Fortunately, Liu Bei was very calm, he said:
“Zilong don’t have to worry, you can go first. After the banquet is over, I will naturally come to look for you.”
Zhao Yun nodded helplessly.
Up to now, this is the only way to do it, and it is impossible to force Liu Bei to be a bodyguard. Otherwise, if Liu Biao saw it, he would have no opinion. This was not what Liu Bei wanted to see.
Now that Liu Bei is under Liu Biao’s command, he obviously wants to form an alliance of interests with Liu Biao.
Soon, Liu Bei, led by his attendants, came to the banquet.
It was said to be a banquet, but it was actually Liu Biao, a few close friends, and Liu Bei.
This is Liu Biao’s game.
But at the same time.
Cai Mao, Kuailiang and Kuaiyue gathered together and the three discussed.
With a cold light in Cai Mao’s eyes, he said:
“Now Liu Bei has come to Xiangyang, and went to see the lord alone. As for the brave general Zhao Yun, they are not together. Why don’t I take this opportunity to solve Liu Bei.”
Hearing this, Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue looked at each other, but they quickly made up their minds, nodded and said:
“This is indeed a good opportunity. Before Liu Bei has reacted, we will kill him directly. But if the lord is still there, we will definitely not let us do it directly.”
Kuai Yue suddenly sneered and said in a deep voice:
“Having said that, I do have a good solution, and I will definitely be able to solve this Liu Bei.”
When Cai Mao heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and asked:
“What’s the way, come quickly.”
They were originally interest groups, so naturally they wouldn’t betray them at the moment.
Kuai Yue immediately said:
“Actually it’s very simple, this time the lord still wants to test Liu Bei, but with the lord’s thoughts, most likely he will not attack Liu Bei, and maybe he will protect him, so we must find a way to let the lord leave.
This is Xiangyang City, Liu Bei is alone, and he has no troops and horses in his hands. Without the protection of the lord, it would be easy for us to kill him, but the speed must be fast, and we must not take it lightly. “
Cai Mao instantly understood.
As for the way to lead Liu Biao away, Kuaiyue also made it clear that as long as the two of them find a reason together and let Liu Biao come to discuss it, Liu Bei will naturally be isolated.
The three of them have been negotiated, and they are ready to go.
…
However, Liu Bei was unaware of the trio’s plan.
Now he has arrived at the banquet.
After meeting with Liu Biao, he took a seat.
With a smile on his face, Liu looked at Liu Bei and said:
“Xuande, so far today, don’t be polite.”
Liu Bei nodded and said:
“Today’s banquet is like returning home…”
…
Now that Liu Bei is under Liu Biao’s command, he obviously wants to form an alliance of interests with Liu Biao.
Soon, Liu Bei, led by his attendants, came to the banquet.
It was said to be a banquet, but it was actually Liu Biao, a few close friends, and Liu Bei.
This is Liu Biao’s game.
But at the same time.
Cai Mao, Kuailiang and Kuaiyue gathered together and the three discussed.
With a cold light in Cai Mao’s eyes, he said:
“Now Liu Bei has come to Xiangyang, and went to see the lord alone. As for the brave general Zhao Yun, they are not together. Why don’t I take this opportunity to solve Liu Bei.”

Kuai Yue suddenly sneered and said in a deep voice:
“Having said that, I do have a good solution, and I will definitely be able to solve this Liu Bei.”

“Actually it’s very simple, this time the lord still wants to test Liu Bei, but with the lord’s thoughts, most likely he will not attack Liu Bei, and maybe he will protect him, so we must find a way to let the lord leave.
This is Xiangyang City, and Liu Bei is alone and has no troops.
