Liu Jing heard about Huang She’s attack on the Tao family, and this was something he expected. The Huang family had no choice but to clean up the Tao family, which paid and paid the grain. The most effective way was to cut off the Tao family’s business.

But Liu Jing did not expect that Liu Biao would actually write a letter asking Tao Zhan to be Liu Cong's concubine, which made Liu Jing feel an uncontrollable anger in his heart.

He believed that Liu Biao knew exactly what he had to do with Tao Zhan, but he wanted to make a fuss, take away his beloved woman and give him that trash. Is this humiliating himself?

Liu Jing forced himself to calm down. He believed that Liu Biao would not be strong because of spoiling his son. The dignified state governor would not do such extraordinary things. So what is Liu Biao for.

At this time, Xu Shu next to him said, "Mr. Jing, I'm afraid the governor of the state is still because of you."

Tao Sheng stood beside him, and Xu Shu couldn't say anything clearly, but when Xu Shu made such a spell, Liu Jing suddenly realized that Liu Biao was not for the sake of his son, but for himself.

He wanted to control himself through money and grain. Liu Biao did not want the Tao family to be his money and grain backing to prevent him, so he used the method of asking Tao Zhan to cut off his relationship with the Tao family. After all, Liu Biao's bones still had a slight distrust of him.

In fact, Liu Biao, like Huang Zu, used the trick of removing firewood from a pot, and discovered that the Tao family was important to him. However, Liu Jing still had one unexpected thing that Liu Biao's trick of removing firewood from a pot was largely related to the wind around the pillow.

The key is the Tao family's attitude. Can Tao Sheng withstand Liu Biao's pressure? Liu Jing pondered for a while and asked Tao Sheng: "What should the head of the family do?"

Tao Sheng sighed, "My father promised Duke Jing that he would not consider the marriage of his daughter within two years. It was for this promise that his father took the daughter away, so naturally I would not agree to the provincial governor."

Although he said this, Tao Sheng's face would be bitter. If he could withstand the pressure, he would not have come to Liu Jing for help, which annoyed Liu Biao. The Tao family would be completely finished in Jingzhou, and the thing that his father was most worried about finally happened.

Liu Jing felt his embarrassment and smiled and said, "What is the difficulty of the head of the family? Just tell me clearly."

"well"

Tao Sheng sighed and said, "I'm not hiding it. Now the Tao family has fallen into great chaos. At least half of the tribe members are dissatisfied with me, thinking that it was me that caused the Tao family business to be cut off. Many tribe members also asked Jiu Niang to return to Chaisang immediately and explain Huang Yong's affairs clearly.

This is just because of the pressure from the Huang family. If they were told that the provincial governor was also forcing him, the Tao family would be even more chaotic. According to the clan rules, if more than 60% of the clan members opposed it, the family church could remove my head from the ancestral hall. At that time, I would be unable to control the situation."

Liu Jing walked slowly in the room with his hands behind his back. Of course, he knew the importance of the Tao family to him. Although he still had some money and grain surplus in his hands, he could only last for half a year at most.

Frankly speaking, Liu Jing did not want to rely on the money and grain from Jingzhou. Even Huang Zu did everything possible to intercept the money and grain from Jingzhou and cut off his logistics supplies, so he could only rely on the support of the Tao family and the Zhu family.

Now that the Tao family is in chaos, it is a vicious plan against him. How could he stand by and watch?

Liu Jing thought for a while and said with a smile: "You can write a letter to tell the Zhou Mu that Jiuniang was kidnapped by Huang She on the way to Xiangyang, and asked the Zhou Mu to ask Huang Zu to ask him to go."

Tao Sheng's face was a little pale. He has never been a bold and reckless person. He is famously cautious and wants him to use this method to deceive Liu Biao. Once Liu Biao finds out, wouldn't it be a crime to deceive the emperor.

After a moment of silence, Tao Sheng asked again: "Will this affect Jiu Niang's reputation? Is there any other plan?"

Tao Sheng reminded Liu Jing in one sentence. Indeed, although the plan is good, it will affect Tao Zhan's reputation. Everyone thought Tao Zhan was snatched away by Huang Sho. What happened in the middle? I don't know what rumors would be.

Liu Jing nodded and agreed with his concerns, "The head of the family reminded him correctly. This plan is inappropriate, so you don't have to consider it."

Liu Jing thought about it for a while and said, "The way to delay this matter is to tell Zhou Mu openly that Jiu Niang's mother has passed away and is now filial piety. She will not talk about marriage within one or two years. Please understand Jiu Niang's filial piety for her daughter."

Even Xu Shu couldn't help but slap his high-highs and applauded, "The reason for this is a good one. The governor of the state has always claimed to be filial. If he insists, he will slap himself in the face. He can't afford to lose this face."

Tao Sheng couldn't help but pat his forehead. He was so anxious that he couldn't even think of this reason.

Liu Jing smiled again and said, "This is not enough. The head of the family also told the provincial governor in the letter that the military funds sent to Xiangyang by the Tao family were detained by Huang She, and the Tao family could no longer transport money and grain to Xiangyang, so they specially rescued the provincial governor."

Xu Shu laughed, "My husband, I really believe you. I can think of this kind of strategy of fighting poison with poison. It's really a clever plan. If the provincial governor wants money and food, he has to solve the problem for the Tao family."

Liu Jing's eyes were staring at Tao Sheng again, "Host, how about it?"

Tao Sheng nodded silently, "You can say that."

Seeing that he still had Qi Rong in front of him and was not happy to solve the problem, Liu Jing asked him again: "What else is there to do with the head of the family?"

Tao Sheng shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This is only temporarily solving the crisis of the prefecture and the Tao family broke off. What should we do if the prefecture and the prefecture and the prefecture and the food we transported to Xiangyang is not afraid to seize, but what about other goods, what should we do if the goods transported from Xiangyang are now the problem is that the whole family is opposing me, Gong Jing, once I am dismissed from the head of the family, I am afraid that these measures will not be implemented."

Liu Jing had no choice but to save Tao Sheng's head of the family. However, Liu Jing had a way to save Tao Sheng's position as head of the family. He thought for a while and said, "I will consider this matter, and I will do my best to help the head of the family."

...........

Tao Sheng said goodbye and left, Xu Shu smiled and said, "There are some things that I don't want Tao Sheng to know, right?"

Liu Jing smiled slightly, "Yuan Zhi knew my heart. After all, he was the head of the family and wanted to protect the interests of his tribe. Therefore, he might not agree to me to do some things. After I do it, it would be too late for him to object."

At this time, the county magistrate Zhu Xun quickly walked into the room, bowed and said, "See Sima"

"Mr. Zhu, I want to ask you about the civil strife in the Tao family, how much do you know?"

...........

There is a tavern covering an area of ​​about five acres in the east of Chaisang City, called Jingshuiju. It is famous in Chaisang, with endless customers all year round and prosperous business.

At noon, Tao Qun slowly came to Jingshuiju Tavern as usual. He would come here to have lunch every day, and he had already developed a habit.

When he walked to the door of the tavern, he happened to meet his old friend Zhou Xin. Zhou Xin and Tao Qun had a good personal relationship and could talk about everything. Two days ago, Tao Qun also complained to Zhou Xin and told him about the incompetence of the head of the family Tao Sheng and the chaos of the family.

Unexpectedly, we met again today. Tao Qun bowed and smiled and said, "Second brother, what a coincidence we met again."

"Brother Tao, I'm asking you for something, let's go upstairs to talk."

Seeing that he looked serious, Tao Qun nodded and followed him upstairs. The two of them sat down. Zhou Xin took out a letter and handed it to Tao Qun, "Look at it."

Seeing his mysterious face, Tao Qun couldn't help but accept the letter in confusion. He just glanced at the letter and was shocked to stand up. This was actually the letter written to him by Huang Zu.

Zhou Xin pulled him down and whispered: "Brother, don't make a fuss, stay calm."

Tao Qun opened the letter nervously and read it hurriedly. The letter was written in a simple way, with only one content. As long as he led his clan members to abolish Tao Sheng's position as the head of the family, Huang Zu would support him as the new head of the family and guarantee the interests of the Tao family.

Tao Qun was frightened and said after a while: "How could he come to me?"

"Of course Huang Shou knows the Tao family. With his family prestige, besides Tao Sheng, it's you. Do you think Huang Shou can't look for you?"

Tao Qun sat there for a while before sighing.

............

Half an hour later, Tao Qun came out of the tavern, leisurely when he entered, but was worried when he came out. At this time, a carriage drove by and stopped.

"Uncle Qun, I'm looking for you everywhere." Zhu Xun's sincere smile appeared on the car window.

The Tao and Zhu families have been married for generations and have a close relationship. Of course, Tao Qun is very familiar with Zhu Xun. Zhu Xun is the county magistrate and often interacts with each other. If it were usual, Tao Qun would greet him with a smile, but today he was not in the mood.

"My nephew, what's the matter?"

Zhu Xun took out a red cloth bag and smiled mysteriously, "I got the piece of Shang jade that Uncle Qun has always wanted."

Tao Qun's biggest hobby is to collect beautiful jade, which can be called jade craziness. He collected a few pieces of beautiful jade and often locked himself in the room all night to play with it.

A few days ago, someone wanted to sell a piece of Shangyu, but unfortunately they encountered a war. When Tao Qun got the news, the jade seller had already left Chaisang, which made Tao Qun regret it for a long time. It was a rare Shangyu.

At this time, Tao Qun was overjoyed and did not care about the thoughts Huang Zu had brought to him. He opened the door and got into the carriage and said impatiently: "Nephew, please show me the jade."

At this moment, a man in black suddenly appeared behind Tao Qun, strangling his neck with his arm. Tao Qun was about to shout instinctively, and a ball of rag was accurately stuffed into his mouth.

Wow

Zhu Xun looked at him coldly, pulled the curtain on the ground, the carriage quickly started, and drove towards the south barracks.

.........

After a staggering moment, Tao Qun was pushed into a house. The room was empty and bright. There was only a single couch. The couch was a young general, Liu Jing, the owner of Chaisang. Behind and on both sides, there were more than a dozen shirtless men standing.

Tao Qun was extremely surprised, but at the same time, he was uneasy and quickly knelt down to pay homage, "Xiaomin Tao Qun, pay homage to Liu Sima."

Liu Jing ignored him and said coldly: "Push it in."

A young ten-year-old man came forward from outside, looking handsome and elegant, and was Tao Bing, the most beloved child of Tao Qun.

The father and the two of them didn't expect to meet here. They looked at each other in a stern manner. At this time, Liu Jing shouted loudly: "Boe me to death."
