Chapter 153 Liu Biao gives in

,,,,,,,,,,,,

In the official room, Liu Biao was at the desk to criticize the public, concentrating on his mind, never looking up at Liu Jing, while Liu Jing stood aside and patiently waited for Liu Biao to calm down.

Just now, Liu Biao was forced to agree to appoint himself as Sima of the Chaisang Division under the pressure of the officials. Liu Jing knew that Liu Biao would not feel comfortable, and he would inevitably be dissatisfied with him.

Although he was a little dissatisfied, he asked him to come to the official room to see him, which showed that he did not regret appointing him as Sima of another department. Perhaps this was his plan.

At this time, Liu Biao put down his pen, glanced at Liu Jing, and then slowly asked: "Are you satisfied now?"

Liu Jing bit his lip and whispered: "My nephew really doesn't want to be the Marquis of Fancheng."

"Don't you want to be the Marquis of Fancheng anymore?" Liu Biao asked coldly again.

Liu Jing remained silent. Liu Biao looked at him for a long time before he said coldly: "All men have the intention to do great things. Of course, you also want to do something. This time you have the opportunity to become the lord of a city. You don't want to give up, but you are afraid that I will come back. So you forced me to agree in the lobby, forcing me to go with your wishes. You are very good, worthy of being my nephew."

Liu Jing was still silent. Liu Biao looked at him for a while. Seeing his stubborn look, he remembered his sick father again. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. His anger towards him subsided a little, and he asked again: "What else do you have to say?"

After a moment of silence, Liu Jing whispered: "My nephew knew his mistake."

In fact, what Liu Biao wants is his mistake. This stubborn child is really not easy for him to admit his mistake. Seeing that he was finally willing to admit his mistake, a smile appeared on his face, "You kid, do you need to play public opinion with your uncle? Do you think I am stupid and can't understand your thoughts? Let me tell you, when I asked Gan Ning to go to Yangxin County, I was already considering letting you go to Jiangxia."

At this time, Liu Jing also realized that he underestimated Liu Biao a little. Liu Biao's heart was like a mirror. He could see his thoughts clearly. Liu Jing did not hide his nature. He said frankly: "My nephew knew that his uncle had been far-sighted and had been planning Jiangxia for a long time, but his nephew was just worried that his uncle was deceived by Huang Zu's sweet words and returned the Chaisang that he had seized through many hardships to him. Once he took Chaisang back, he would definitely not give me any chance. At that time, it would be too late for him to regret it."

Liu Biao walked a few steps behind his hands, walked to the window and stopped. After a long time, he sighed and said, "Actually, I don't believe in the so-called concessions at all. Instead of asking for his concessions, it's better to kill him directly. I'm just worried that I'll force them to be forced into trouble. Huang and Cai joined forces to rebel, and things will be troublesome. I had already decided to deprive Cai Mao of the right to be in charge of logistics and military affairs. After hearing the news that you seized Chaisang, I decided to restore his power. This is the reason."

Liu Jing remembered Kuai Yue's evaluation of Liu Biao. He had a lot of ideas and lacked courage, so he looked forward and changed his orders every day. In fact, it was a good idea. He had this personality and could not persuade him. After a moment of silence, Liu Jing asked again: "So, how is uncle going to deal with Brother Cong's affairs?"

A sentence reminded Liu Biao. He sat down and asked, "There are many statements outside now. Some say Cong'er was injured by Huang Yong, and some say that someone pretended to be Huang Yong and injured Cong'er. I asked Cong'er, and he said that he didn't know the person who injured him. He was inconsistent with all the statements. I want to get the truth from you. What's going on?"

Liu Jing smiled bitterly. The so-called pretending to be Huang Yong and hurt Liu Cong was to imply that he was implicitly. Liu Biao was giving himself a chance to explain, but fortunately he was prepared first.

"Uncle, please allow me to get something, just outside the gate and go back immediately."

Liu Biao nodded, "Go"

Liu Jing turned around and left. Soon after, he brought back a wooden box and placed it on the table. "Uncle, the truth is in the box."

"What is it?" Liu Biao asked curiously.

Liu Jing carefully opened the box and uncovered a layer of oil cloth, which was filled with lime. There was a head in the lime. Liu Biao was shocked, took a step back, frowned and asked, "Whose level is this?"

"Uncle, this is Huang Yong's level"

Liu Jing then beat Huang Yong and came to find him again, but he was killed in detail, and finally said: "So far, Huang Zu doesn't know that his son has been killed by me. This head can prove the truth about Brother Cong's injury."

Liu Biao looked at the head carefully. He knew it. It was indeed Huang Yong. Liu Biao stared at it for a while and asked again: "You mean, Huang Zu didn't know that his son was dead."

Liu Jing shook his head, "He doesn't know."

Liu Biao thought that his son was injured, and now Huang Yong died at the hands of his nephew again, his hatred was finally resolved, but Huang Zu might be in trouble again. He thought about it again and told Liu Jing: "He is here to put his head on me. In addition, you must keep the secret of Huang Yong being killed by you. Don't let Huang Zu know about this for the time being. I don't want to make a big deal about this matter again."

Liu Jing just wanted to prove that Liu Cong was not harmed by him. He didn't want to ask about other things. He immediately nodded and agreed, "My nephew understands."

At this time, Liu Jing used Huang Yong's head to prove his innocence and revealed the truth about Liu Cong being injured. Liu Biao untied another knot in his heart and had a good impression of Liu Jing for a moment.

Thinking of having such a capable nephew, Liu Biao felt very happy and smiled and patted Liu Jing on the shoulder and said, "I know you want to take Liu Hu and the brothers of Fancheng away. You don't have to ask for it. I will give you this reward first, you can take them away."

Liu Jing was overjoyed and bowed to him: "Thank you for your accomplishment."

"What else do I need to help you?" Liu Biao asked with a smile again.

Liu Jing suddenly thought of Tao Zhan and thought to himself, whether to let his uncle fulfill his marriage with Tao Zhan, but reason told Liu Jing that it would be best not to mention this matter, and I will talk about it later.

At this time, Liu Jing remembered another thing and hurriedly said, "My nephew has a suggestion about Jiangdong, and I beg my uncle to agree."

Liu Biao was stunned. Why did he have something to do with Jiangdong? He asked: "What suggestions?"

Liu Jing said tentatively: "I heard that Sun Quan's mother passed away. I think this is an opportunity to reconcile with Jiangdong..."

Before Liu Jing could continue to say this, Liu Biao was furious and flatly refused Liu Jing's temptation, "No, Jiangdong and I are deeply intimidated, and there is absolutely no possibility of reconciliation. I will never send anyone to mourn me."

Liu Jing sighed in his heart. He also guessed that this would be the result, but he was not willing to give up and said secondly: "My uncle misunderstood his nephew's meaning. It was not for reconciliation, but for his nephew, he wanted to exchange prisoners of war with Jiangdong. Huang She was defeated by Jiangdong. Many Jiangxia soldiers were captured by Jiangdong, and his nephew also had many Jiangdong wounded soldiers and thousands of corpses. The nephew wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to filial piety to exchange Jiangxia soldiers."

Liu Biao's face was a little calmer. It would be feasible if he just exchanged prisoners of war. He also told Liu Jing, "It is okay to exchange prisoners of war, but you should not do anything else, and you should not use the excuse of filial piety. The dispute between the Liu and Sun families is difficult to resolve. Don't let Sun Quan laugh at me."

"My nephew understands that if my uncle has no other arrangements, my nephew plans to return to Chaisang tonight."

Liu Biao originally wanted Liu Jing to go home for a reunion dinner together, but when he thought of his injury and his mood was gone, he nodded and said, "After going to Chaisang, remember to write more letters, report more things, and raise any difficulties if you have any problems."

Liu Jing nodded silently, turned around and left. Liu Biao stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, looking at his nephew walking towards the door quickly. At this moment, he was full of expectations for this nephew.

At this time, a guard reported at the door: "Qi Bizhou's governor, the military advisor asked for a meeting."

Liu Biao turned around suddenly, Cai Mao came indeed. He knew that Cai Mao was going to talk to him about Huang Zu's affairs. It would be fine. He heard what Huang Zu had made concessions. He immediately said: "Let him come in."

.........

After leaving the prefecture yamen, Liu Jing rushed back to Fancheng. He had to leave Xiangyang as soon as possible. Liu Jing knew Liu Biao's nature of changing orders every day. Although he had agreed to let him guard Chaisang, he might have changed his mind after negotiations with Huang Zu, and handed him over to Huang Zu, and changed himself to another place.

He must leave Xiangyang before Liu Biao regrets it. Even if Liu Biao regrets it, he will never give up Chaisang.

Liu Jing took a boat to pass the Han River. As soon as he got ashore, he suddenly heard someone calling him, "Mr. Jing"

Liu Jing turned around and looked at the sound. He saw a carriage parked at the pier not far away, with soldiers guarding him. A person beside the carriage was waving to him. Liu Jing recognized him. It was Zhao Yun. Liu Jing was overjoyed and walked forward quickly with his horse.

When he approached the carriage, he saw the curtain lifting, revealing Liu Bei's face that was always full of smiles. It turned out that Liu Bei was there too. Liu Jing didn't care about Zhao Yun for the time being, so he stepped forward and bowed to Liu Bei: "See the uncle in the younger generation."

Liu Bei smiled and said, "I heard that my nephew defeated the Jiangdong Army in Chaisang. He was expected to be promoted, and he was happy to congratulate him."

"Reporting to the emperor's uncle, today it has officially announced that I will be promoted to Sima of the Chaisang County and Magistrate of the Chaisang County. I am planning to return to Chaisang to take office."

Liu Bei's smile on his face became even more friendly and brilliant, "It turned out to be a Sima of another department. It's not bad, it's good to be promoted to the commander of Jiangxia in a few years. At that time, Huang Zu should have the virtuous."

Liu Jing suddenly remembered that the last time Liu Bei and Huang Zu had close relationships, there were signs of alliance. Today, Liu Bei suddenly appeared in Xiangyang. Could it be that he was going to plead with Huang Zu.

Thinking of this, Liu Jing asked tentatively: "Why did the emperor come to Xiangyang today?"

Liu Bei smiled, "Last time, my nephew advised me to communicate more with the provincial governor. I remember that I often interact with the provincial governor. Today, the provincial governor sent someone to invite me to talk, and there is probably nothing big."

Liu Jing looked at Zhao Yun again. He had a lot to say to Zhao Yun, and he also wanted to know about Yu Zhen, but he didn't know if Liu Bei gave Zhao Yun a chance to talk to him.

Liu Bei was understanding and immediately understood what Liu Jing meant, and smiled at Zhao Yun and said, "Long, you haven't seen each other for a long time. Let's talk and wait for yourself to come to Xiangyang."

Zhao Yun was overjoyed and bowed quickly and said, "Thank you lord."

Liu Bei smiled again, "Then I wish Mr. Jing a good time to go to Chaisang and make new contributions."

"Thank you for your good words, and I wish you to establish your foundation as soon as possible and start a new career."

Liu Jing praised him and turned his horse on his back, bowed to Liu Bei, and then headed towards Fancheng with Zhao Yun.

Liu Bei narrowed his eyes and looked at Liu Jing walking away, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became deeper. Sun Gan beside him whispered: "Lord, maybe Zhao Yun will tell Liu Jing about that."

Liu Bei smiled, "It's okay to let him know."

Speaking of this, Liu Bei sighed softly, "Jiangxia is a good place."
