Chapter 100 Liu Bei: This Xuzhou was originally mine...(2/3)

The hot air has been somewhat moistened, and the sunny weather has made the heat even more intense.

Within Juancheng.

In the actor's house, compared to the stuffy heat outside, for some reason it is much cooler inside the actor's house at this moment.

In the main hall, inside the copper ice mirror, huge ice cubes filled the entire ice mirror tightly.

There are no fewer than five or six such ice mirrors in the entire main hall.

Due to the ice mirror, the air in the entire lobby has dropped a lot.

"Fengyi, if I had known it was so cool here, I should have moved the tables here!"

Xun Yu, who happened to come to visit, was a little surprised.

Logically speaking, ice cubes are extremely scarce in summer. Even the emperor's ice cellar may not have much stock.

Of course, whether Liu Xie is there now is another matter.

But what Xun Yu saw was that there seemed to be countless ice cubes in Xiyu's house.

From what he said, what kind of saltpeter is it made of?

Xun Yu admired Xi Yu's miraculous method from the bottom of his heart.

"Brother, the principle of making ice from saltpeter is actually not difficult. Even that guy Dian Wei has already learned it!"

"I just asked the baggage battalion to send the ice-making method to Brother Mengde two days ago!"

"If you want more ice at home, I will ask Dian Wei to give you some saltpeter, and I will also tell you how to make ice!"

Regarding making ice with saltpeter, Xi Yu did not hide anything.

He didn't care about the hot weather, but he just couldn't bear it.

Simply, he asked someone to find saltpeter and make some ice cubes.

He had people send them over to Cao Cao and the Cao family.

For this reason, Cao Song praised him a lot.

"I heard that Tao Qian accepted Lu Bu, what do you think of Fengyi?"

Regarding the ice cubes, Xun Yu thanked Xi Yu, and then asked Xi Yu about the business.

Lu Bu was on the run in Yanzhou before. How was he going to deal with Lu Bu? He never thought that the other party would choose to defect to Tao Qian.

"Lü Bu went to Xuzhou?"

So early?

That’s right!

Nowadays, Lu Bu has nowhere else to go.

According to the original history, after Yanzhou was re-pacified by Cao Cao, Lu Bu ran away to Xuzhou.

At that time, Liu Bei accepted the opponent directly, but what Liu Bei didn't expect was that Lu Bu kicked Liu Bei out of Xuzhou with a kick.

Now, because the Yanzhou incident has been resolved ahead of schedule, some things have been moved ahead of schedule.

However, this time when he went to Xuzhou, Lu Bu no longer had Chen Gong to help him with suggestions.

Such Lu Bu is not worth taking seriously.

However, Lu Bu's visit to Xuzhou will make the situation in Xuzhou more complicated.

"Brother, you don't have to worry about the lost dog!"

Without Chen Gong, Lu Bu is just a headless fly!

According to Lu Bu's temperament, it will not be easy for him to get along with the Xuzhou nobles, or even Liu Bei.

"I heard that Tao Qian is unconscious now!"

"Xuzhou, I'm afraid chaos will break out!"

Xun Yu said softly, but the expression on his face was not too disturbing.

"For our army, this is an opportunity!"

Opportunity?

When Xi Yu heard this, he nodded in approval.

Once Tao Qian dies, the entire situation in Xuzhou will be out of balance in an instant!

The Danyang forces that originally belonged to Tao Qian were in opposition to the Xuzhou gentry.

And this Danyang force naturally has to find its own way out.

Taking refuge with Liu Bei may be a good choice for them.

The appearance of Lu Bu is also a new choice.

"Brother, let Brother Mengde worry about Xuzhou's affairs. It won't be of much benefit for you and me to sit here and discuss these matters!"

Xi Yu glanced at Xun Yu and said helplessly.

Now that Cao Cao is in Xuzhou, Cao Cao will have a clearer perception of the changes in Xuzhou.

The two of them are at the rear, and what they should be thinking about right now is things like food and grass.

"That's right!"

Xun Yu raised his head and glanced outside the hall. From this door, he could see layers of heat waves rising with the naked eye!

People throughout Yanzhou have long been complaining about such hot weather.

During this time, Xun Yu often inspected the farm areas during the day.

Because of the continuous hot and dry weather, the rice in that area has become a bit dry.

"These days, many ditches have been built between fields in Yanzhou. As Fengyi said before, water diversion for irrigation has been quite effective!"

Diverting water from a big river to a place where there is a lack of water flow is no small project!

The most famous South-to-North Water Diversion Project in later generations is an extremely dazzling presence in water conservancy.

At the moment, he is just borrowing some from it.

In this era, there are only ditches and some water trucks to divert water, and the efficiency of utilization is still somewhat low after all.

It’s so hard to survive this summer!

……

"I'm afraid I won't be able to survive this summer!"

Tancheng, Xuzhou.

Before Tao Qian's death bed, Cao Bao, the current Xuzhou Biejia Mi Zhu, and others were all waiting in front of Tao Qian.

At this time, Tao Qian's aura was slightly sluggish, and the look in his eyes had become thinner.

"Your Majesty!"

Cao Bao opened his mouth, but nothing came out of what he wanted to say.

At this time, the people in front of Tao Qian were all people he could trust.

Mi Zhu is here because Tao Qian deliberately called him in front of him.

However, in less than ten days, Tao Qian's condition has become increasingly critical. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Tao Qian cannot hold on much longer.

And within these ten days, the situation in Xuzhou as a whole seemed like a storm was about to come.

When Lu Bu took control of Pengcheng, he frequently communicated with some nobles in Xuzhou.

In just a few days, Lu Bu seemed to have forgotten his previous embarrassing state in Yanzhou.

In just a few days, Lu Bu returned to his previous arrogance.

Someone reminded Lu Bu that Tao Qian is no longer good now.

The huge Xuzhou is like an extremely attractive piece of fat, and Lu Bu is also tempted.

Liu Bei, on the other hand, remained extremely stable during this period, but at this stage, he and Cao Cao have once again resumed communication with each other.

Cao and Liu exchanged letters of greetings from time to time, which seemed like mutual confidants.

However, both of them knew that once Tao Qian died, some things would soon change.

"Zizhong!"

"This thing is entrusted to you!"

When he was dying, Tao Qian asked someone to entrust a letter of testament to Mi Zhu, and then turned to look at Cao Bao.

"Ah Bao, follow Mr. Xuande in the future and abide by your duty!"

Tao Qian always chose to entrust Xuzhou to Liu Bei.
