Liu Chenglin and Sun Zhi sat opposite each other and drank.

He was very happy. Liu Changfeng came back and brought back the news about the old Liu family house that he cared about the most.

Cao Xin was a matchmaker and proposed marriage to Liu Ruyan with a large number of gifts. The two families officially became in-laws. Liu Chenglin was very satisfied with Li Ze's approach.

"Aren't you very angry before? Why are you so happy now?" Sun Zhi looked at Liu Chenglin with a spring breeze and asked jokingly.

"Li Ze is very sinister. He deliberately spread his relationship with me, Liu, but he wanted to alienate my relationship with Zhu Shou. To put it bluntly, he wanted to force me to rebel. How could I not be angry?" Liu Chenglin drank a glass of wine and said.

"Hasn't Li Ze achieved his goal now? No matter whether it is the process or the result, it has not changed. Why are you abnormal?" Sun Zhi was a little puzzled.

"Because Qiaoer has found a good home." Liu Chenglin said with a smile: "I am just such a sister. I have been caring for her as a baby since I was a child. Now, how can I not be happy to see her find her husband?"

"Are you sure Li Ze is the best man?"

"You have never had contact with that boy." Liu Chenglin laughed: "That was a sinister guy. I suffered a great loss in his hands."

Sun Zhi laughed: "I haven't seen that you are quite inclined to be abused. If you have been cured, you still admire them!"

Liu Chenglin put down his wine glass and said seriously: "In this world, honest people don't have a good life. Brother Sun, look at me, I was honest enough before, and I worked hard for Zhu Shou wholeheartedly, hoping to make a future for myself with my own courage and seek a governor to repay my losses. But what's the result? Ha, that's the case. If Zhu Shou has a few real trust in me, he wouldn't have to kill me without asking for it?"

"Zhu Shou is not a wise ruler in the first place." Sun Zhi nodded.

"So, a guy like Li Ze is the most suitable for this world! In such a chaotic world, a person like him will live like a fish in water." Liu Chenglin poured a glass of wine for Sun Zhi, "In the past, I wanted to find an honest brother-in-law to let my sister live a safe life, because at that time, I confirmed that I could protect my Liu family. But twice in a row, I was powerless for my Liu family. So now I have changed my mind and want to find a powerful brother-in-law to make my sister worry-free for the rest of my life."

Listening to Liu Chenglin's words of self-destruction, Sun Zhi was overjoyed. In the past, Liu Chenglin was a man of a higher mind. Look at most people who looked from the top to the bottom. It seems that he has suffered a lot of blows in the past two years and can face his shortcomings.

"You look like Qiao'er is like his life, and you are not afraid of Li Ze bullying her? Let me tell you, you find a weaker brother-in-law. If Qiao'er is bullied, you can come to the door and beat her brother-in-law, but if you find someone like Li Ze, you can't vent your anger for Qiao'er." Sun Zhi smiled so hard that he leaned back and forth, "I really want to come to the door, I guess it was you who was beaten."

Liu Chenglin smiled and said, "I had a contact with that boy. Although I didn't know much, people like him don't seem to bully women. Besides, Liu Changfeng came back and told me that Li Ze's mother, Mrs. Wang, loved Qiaoer very much. This marriage was originally proposed by Mrs. Wang from the beginning. Mrs. Wang was born, and she believed in Bodhisattvas and had a peaceful temperament. Qiaoer also said she got along well with her."

"So, even if you marry, you won't stand the rules in front of your mother-in-law and be bullied!" Sun Zhi nodded repeatedly: "It's a good idea to establish a good relationship with your mother-in-law first."

"These are all secondary. If you want Li Ze to always be nice to Qiaoer, the most important thing is of course still with me. As long as I get stronger and stronger, he will not dare to be rude to Qiaoer, otherwise he will be hurt if I move." Liu Chenglin said proudly.

Sun Zhi put down his wine glass and said seriously: "So, have you decided to join Li Ze and do things for him and give up making your own family?"

Liu Chenglin sighed, raised his glass and drank it all: "Brother Sun, everyone has a heart of upwardness, and naturally I also have a heart of upwardness. I have thought of looking down on the world, but too many things have happened in the past two years, and I have to re-examine myself. Finally, I came up with a fact that I don't want to admit, but I can't admit it."

Facing Sun Zhi's gaze, he smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not this material!"

Sun Zhi did not expect that Liu Chenglin, who had always been arrogant, would admit defeat by himself.

"The Red Sakura Spear in my hand can help me to be on the battlefield. Over the years, only Li Ze, a subordinate, has left me helpless. I have never encountered any other opponents, but the Red Sakura Spear can only kill the enemy on the surface and cannot kill the hidden enemies." Liu Chenglin pointed to the iron spear inserted on the weapon stand by the wall and sighed.

"After learning from one's mistakes, you will be wise. How come you are sure that you will not grow?" Sun Zhi said.

"I'm afraid before I figured out some things, I was eaten to the point of not even leaving any bones." Liu Chenglin shook his head and said, "Brother Sun, I can roar proudly on the battlefield, but that's all. My nature is destined to be a lord. Especially after seeing how Li Ze managed it, I was even more despised. Like him, a fire burned a relatively prosperous Texas into white land, without any nostalgia for doing things, and I have no desire to compete for the world."

"So you decided to follow him." Sun Zhi said.

"Yes, since I can't accomplish anything, I naturally have to find a pretty good boss. Now it seems that this person who will become my brother-in-law is an amazing person." Liu Chenglin nodded.

"That's right." Sun Zhi nodded, but then sighed: "After all the time, this person's starting point is much higher than us. Just having a father, Chengde Jiedu, allows him to stand above our heads and look down at us as soon as he is born. Even if we struggle for a lifetime, we may not reach his current height!"

"This is just providing him with a stage." Liu Chenglin shook his head and said, "He has the current situation and has nothing to do with him who is a governor of morality. This is why I admire him. The world is in chaos, and there must be many heroes. In my opinion, Li Ze has the potential to become a hero. Besides, he is still my brother-in-law. If he doesn't seek refuge with him, who else can he go to?"

Sun Zhi laughed: "That's right. But Brother Liu, we still have a difficult time next. My friend from Cangzhou sent me a message. Zhu Shou had already assembled a large army and was coming to deal with us."

"As expected." Liu Chenglin said coldly: "When Changfeng came back, he had already brought back the warning Li Ze gave me."

"Did Li Ze see this too?" Sun Zhi was a little surprised.

Liu Chenglin nodded: "The Yizhou side is preparing to use troops to Henghai after the autumn to revenge Henghai's rebellion in this three alliance and Zhu Bin's revenge on Yizhou. Of course, Zhu Shou also saw this, so he would definitely knock me out before the autumn harvest, so as not to be attacked on both sides when Yizhou comes to attack."

"Zhu Shou gathered 5,000 soldiers and 30,000 soldiers in the palace. This is Zhu Shou's old job." Sun Zhi said this, his face turned a little pale, "We alone are afraid that it will be difficult to deal with it."

"Not only this, maybe there will be Lu Long's army to attack us in Yingzhou." Liu Chenglin played with the wine glass and said lightly: "I have sent someone to Zhangwu to inquire about the news and see if Shi Yi will come to take advantage of the situation to rob us?"

Sun Zhi's face turned paler: "What should we do if we are attacked from both sides? Will reinforcements come over in Yizhou?"

Liu Chenglin smiled: "No, this time, we have to rely on ourselves. Li Ze fought continuously, and his troops were exhausted. In addition, the autumn harvest was about to be about to be brought to the ground, so he couldn't get out any of them. So we had no reinforcements in this battle."

"Then how to fight this battle? This time, Zhu Shou personally led his army to attack!"

"What's so scary? Now I have two thousand soldiers and ten thousand soldiers in the palace." Liu Chenglin didn't care: "Your series of policies such as opening warehouses and releasing grain, helping the people, and exempting taxes have made us strongly support from the people in Jingzhou. No one wants to go back to the same days as before, so we have people in the hearts of the people. Otherwise, this time the recruitment of soldiers in the palace would be so smooth. Jingzhou is not short of food or military preparations. As for the decisive victory on the battlefield, Liu Chenglin has not been afraid of anyone. Zhu Shou was probably very powerful in the past, but now he is old."

Seeing Liu Chenglin so confident, Sun Zhi put his heart down and then put it down.

"Chenglin, don't be too aggressive in this battle. It's July now. As long as we delay for one to two months, Zhu Shou will definitely return without success. The autumn harvest is approaching, and he also wants the autumn harvest, otherwise his subordinates will fight the famine next year. In this battle, we will just be stable."

"It's better to attack than defending. I want to use attack instead of defending!" Liu Chenglin laughed, "Brother Sun, please relax. I'm already planning how to fight this battle. At that time, you just need to sit in Jingzhou City to guard my nest for me."

Sun Zhi raised his wine glass, "Since Brother Liu is confident, I feel relieved. Come on, I wish Brother Liu a cup and wish Brother Liu a victory and a smooth horse."

"Dry!" The two cups met heavily.

Although Sun Zhi was worried, he had no way out now. His guy was finally released by Zhu Shou and exchanged them for Lu Jin and Feng Song's family. Zhu Shou had no choice at this point. No matter what, Lu Jin and Feng Song were both important figures in Henghai. Even in order not to make other subordinates feel upset, he could only do this.

But this made him even more angry. It was already something he had to do to get rid of Liu Chenglin.

In Cangzhou and Jingzhou began to mobilize large-scale wars, in Wuyi, a cavalry of nearly 2,000 people began to assemble.
