Chapter 1882 Grease and smear, revenge
Huang Yueying''s sudden proposal was actually stimulated by the sacrifice. Of course, it was not given by Cai Yan, nor was it entirely caused by her father''s letter, but it was really felt by herself.
It was still a small-scale sacrifice before. On the one hand, Fei Qian was often traveling outside, so it was naturally impossible to hold it on a large scale. Second, it took time to build Fei Qian''s ancestral temple. The place in Pingyang was relatively small, so Huang Yueying replaced Fei Qian to worship Sometimes I don''t feel too much head.
But this time, it''s different.
There were more people participating, and the etiquette was more cumbersome, but in such an environment, when Huang Yueying stood behind Fei Qian and led her child, she suddenly found that the people around her were so thin, and those beside them But there are so many branches, which is undoubtedly the most direct stimulus to Huang Yueying.
Strong branches and weak stems, this is not a good thing for any noble family. Huang Yueying also stood in the perspective of Fei Qian''s entire family business, in fact, also from the perspective of her own children, so she endured the indescribable emotions in her heart and suggested that Fei Qian marry Cai Yan as soon as possible, after all Cai Yan is more or less familiar, and can be regarded as able to talk, and feels a little better in his heart.
No one would willingly be a licking dog.
Huang Yueying loves Feiqian, so naturally she is not willing to share it with other women, but for her own child Feizhen, Huang Yueying is willing to give up part of Feiqian...
Of course, if Fei Qian only accepts Mo Dou, then it is naturally the best. On the one hand, Mo Dou''s offspring, whether male or female, are generally not able to compete with Fei Zhen; on the other hand, Mo Dou will accompany Huang Yueying longer It is relatively possible, and it is only possible, that the maidservant will be more used to it.
But no matter what, Huang Yueying felt that the side branches of Fei''s family behind her were projected from behind, the meaning was unclear, maybe with envy, or maybe with malicious eyes, so expanding the backbone of Fei''s family became an urgent task Things, as for personal emotions, have to be put in the back row...
Huang Yueying made a choice, and likewise, Liu Biao in Jingzhou also had to make a choice.
In Liu Biao''s original concept, the land of Jingxiang was also a forbidden area that absolutely did not allow others to touch it, and it was one step closer than Huang Yueying, even if it was his own son, he could not touch it before he lost his ability to control it. a piece of cheese.
That''s why Liu Biao deliberately planned for a long time, preparing to beat all the openings one by one like a gopher, no matter it is Cai''s or Huang''s, and even beat his own child Liu Cong with this.
But the problem is that the plan can never keep up with the changes. When Liu Biao thought the plan was perfect and progressed quite smoothly, Jiangdong suddenly sent troops and captured Jiangxia. It was like giving Liu Biao a blow in the head. The family sent troops to attack the Nanyang area, and then wiped out Runan in an attempt to link Wuguan, and then kicked Liu Biao in the middle, which made his waist and eyes numb...
Growing your hair overnight is not just a talk. This time, Liu Biao really did. Liu Biao himself has been ill for a long time, and his qi and blood are deficient. Although Zhang Ji managed to control the stubborn disease on his back, his whole body has paid a lot. If he takes good care of him for a period of time, it may be possible to recover to the state before the onset of the disease. However, the sudden change now caused the whole Jingzhou to be in a state of abyss, and the north and the south were attacking, which immediately made Liu Biao mentally exhausted, and the whole person aged within two or three days, just like two people.
Even so, Liu Biao still had people put powder on his face, and carefully modified it, and even added some light blush to make up for the lack of energy and blood on his face, until he looked at it in the mirror, In a trance, he seemed to see the handsome middle-aged man who rode into Jingzhou alone, then slowly closed his eyes, sat upright in the lobby, and ordered Cai Mao to be brought up.
Cai Mao was defeated in Jiangxia, he had no choice but to join the Wenpin Army, and he had been under surveillance in the large prison in Xiangyang City for the past few days. Not so good, although he won''t receive any physical punishment, let alone grooming, his expression is naturally dispirited, which is in stark contrast to Liu Biao who sits high above him.
Liu Biao did not let Cai Mao approach, but let Cai Mao kneel in front of the hall, just under the sun exposure, and Liu Biao himself sat in the hall, his carefully groomed face was even more gorgeous and flawless under the candlelight.
Cai Mao peeked at Liu Biao, bowed his head and bowed his neck involuntarily, declaring his guilt, and bowing to him.
Liu Biao remained silent, and for a while inside and outside the hall, it seemed that there was only the sound of the heartbeat and the surging blood.
The sun in July has gradually shown its brutal side. After a while under the scorching sun, Cai Mao began to sweat all over his body. In addition, he hadn''t washed or bathed for many days. The new sweat and the old dirt, with his hair disheveled, Also, the fleas and lice infested in the prison couldn''t bear the heat, and fled one after another, making it itchy all over the body, but they couldn''t scratch it, it was like being in hell.
『Will enter the corridor. Give a seat. 』
Liu Biao ordered lightly.
Come forward from left to right, and put Cai Mao under the corridor. Although he has not yet entered the hall, he has avoided direct sunlight.
Originally a pair of good **** friends, but because of the uneven distribution of spoils, they started fighting each other, but Liu Biao couldn''t do without Cai, just like Cai couldn''t do without Liu Biao. Liu Biao''s control of Jingxiang depends on the people who have been dealt with in the past few years. There is no problem in controlling Xiangyang, but it is not enough to put it in the nine counties of Jingxiang. On the one hand, it is connected with Liu Biao, and on the other hand, it is connected with the gentry in other places in Jingxiang.
Originally, Cai Mao was suspicious in the prison and had trouble sleeping and eating, mainly because he was afraid that Liu Biao would sneakily build another bridge without his knowledge, such as what it was called Kuai''s Bridge, but now it seems that there is no such bridge. .
Without the direct sunlight, it seems that the processor has cooled down a lot. In the midst of his thoughts, Cai Hao calculated the back and forth of the past two years, and felt that he hadn''t found out that Liu Biao had reinvented himself in the past two years. After all, There are people inside and outside the Cai family. Even though Liu Biao can control Xiangyang, there must be some traces if he acts outside. Possible, but quite difficult.
At least Cai Mao didn''t find out, but he didn''t dare to fully confirm it before. After all, in these few days, Cai Hao didn''t receive any news from the inner government. When Liu Biao asked someone to help him into the corridor, Cai Mao suddenly realized that Liu Biao''s move actually meant that Liu Biao must still use Cai''s family.
For useless things, why use courtesy?
Household utensils, if you want to throw them away, why bother to mend and beat them?
Cai Mao himself also comes from a noble family, and he is very clear about the law of the jungle. Although this time''s behavior is somewhat disobedient, it belongs to the kind of behavior that steps on the red line. It can be left or right. When the momentum is not right, Cai Mao He quickly withdrew that tentative foot and lowered his head.
If you make a mistake, accept the punishment and accept the punishment. After all, Cai Mao, or the Cai family did not completely do things. Besides, Cai He also led the private soldiers to station in Caijiazhou, as the Cai family''s last retreat...
『All criminals will die! Cai Hao stretched out his tentacles again, and kowtowed loudly, because this time he knocked on the wooden boards under the porch, so the voice was a little louder, "I can''t share the worries for the lord internally, and I can''t betray the Lord''s justice externally, what a crime!" 』
The corners of Liu Biao''s eyebrows couldn''t help but twitch, but he forcibly suppressed the urge to frown. Without him, he was afraid that the powder would fall off if he moved too much.
Cai Mao opened his mouth, and he used words so well!
But even so, so what?
Liu Biao originally thought that the struggle between Fei Qian and Cao Cao could not end so quickly. On the one hand, Cao Cao''s strength is not too small. On the other hand, even if Fei Qian wins, it will not be so easy to regain Shandong. The Huang family on the Wancheng side is here, so Liu Biao''s goal is to make such a time difference, and then get the result he wants with ease. It''s just that it never expected that such a seemingly majestic battle between Fei Qian and Cao Cao would end up and down twice.
If it’s just Fei Qian and Cao Cao’s thunder but no rain, the problem is not difficult to solve. What’s more troublesome is Jiangdong’s idiot country bumpkins...
Liu Biao looked down on Sun Jian, even a little disgusted.
A small surname in Wu County for generations, but a vulgar person who got lucky with some bravery! Although Sun Jian also contributed to Liu Biao''s entry into Jingzhou to a certain extent, he lynched and killed the court ministers before Sun Jian was ordered. I was deeply disgusted, thinking that this was a harbinger of Sun Jian''s rebellion,
Therefore, Liu Biao doesn''t like Sun Ce either, let alone have any feeling with Sun Quan that "having a son should be like Sun Zhongmou". The most important thing is the sense of shame, "Jiangdong children, you are too deceitful!" 』
Jiangdong is also not a good comer. After conquering Jiangxia County, on the one hand, it began to clean up Jiangxia''s surroundings, and on the other hand, it was also gearing up to stare at Jiangling. If Jiangling falls, it will be equivalent to the end of half of Jingzhou!
Under such circumstances, Cao Cao stretched out a hand to Liu Biao, expressing his willingness to join forces with Liu Biao to attack Jiangdong together, which seemed to be a more acceptable option when he had no choice.
If you think about it for self-comfort, Runan is not the place under your own jurisdiction, and the compensation to the Huang family is just Nanxiang, while Jiangling is obviously more important...
Actually both Liu Biao and Cao Cao understand that there is a related word behind Huang, and under the current situation, it is better not to touch it or not.
But Cao Cao is obviously not the so-called selfless help. Generally speaking, he turned the knife that was originally inserted in Cao Cao''s waist, turned his head and inserted it in Liu Biao''s thigh, cut some flesh, and let some blood...
Cao Cao also gave a "quite sincere" buy-in price.
This is a bit big.
But the problem is that the problems that can be solved with money should be smaller problems, and those that cannot be solved with money are the big problems, so in the end Liu Biao still gritted his teeth and chose to spend money to eliminate disasters, or temporarily eliminate them first As for the disaster in Jiangdong, as for the Huang family, they can only let it go for the time being.
If you want to get rid of the outside, you will naturally settle inside first. According to the principle of being bald and strong in later generations, Liu Biao is also a clear family, so before joining forces, he naturally needs to wash and whitewash the dirty things in his own house, just like Liu Biao is currently painting on his face. The powder on the face covers the wrinkles, and of course also hides the filth.
『The most important thing for a soldier is the most important weapon for a country! Liu Biao said in a deep voice, "A certain entrusts Qing with his wealth, and doesn''t ask Qing to step down the Wolf Mountain, but only asks for a peaceful place. How can you repay him?" Losing soldiers and generals, losing territory and land, what''s the use of staying in Qing! And what should I do! 』
Liu Biao''s words were just and stern, and Cai Mao felt a lot of disappointment in his heart, so he immediately kowtowed on the wooden board under the corridor again and again, pleading guilty.
After the thunderstorm, as long as you can''t kill yourself on the spot, it will naturally be the turn of some rain and dew. As for the hussar general Fei Qian, who was thunderous and rainy, Liu Biao could only close his eyes to express that he didn''t want to think too much, lest his breath be disturbed, and there would be something good or bad.
Although Wenpin has martial prowess, it is still somewhat lacking for the Wen family to coordinate the Jingxiang gentry to resist Jiangdong together. Liu Biao himself feels that he has this talent, but because he is too old, he can still apply powder indoors. Covering some prying eyes, if you go outside, you may not be able to hide under the sun, and it is not a good thing to show your old and weak state outside, so you can only let Cai continue to provoke this burden...
After all, Kuai''s offer of advice and suggestions is not bad. If he dispatches troops, he might not be as good as the half bucket of water in front of him. What''s more, Kuai''s so-called good talents are not very good. Trapped in Chang''an and unable to return. Although Liu Biao himself sometimes finds Liu Qi not pleasing to the eye, but after all, he is his own child, and he can beat and scold him if he doesn''t like Liu Qi, but other people, hehe, so he even thinks that the rest of the Kuai family are just mediocre and cannot be reused.
The shorter man was taller, and the situation forced Liu Biao to turn his eyes and close his eyes, and then deprived Cai Mao of the official position that was originally added to Cai Mao''s head, leaving only a captain Jiang Xia, with the same intention. Naturally, it was obvious, and then Cai Hao was asked to commit crimes and meritorious deeds, and secondly, Cai Hao was also responsible for stuffing Cao Cao''s open mouth...
Cai Hao originally thought that Liu Biao had borrowed some soldiers from Cao Cao, but he was surprised that Liu Biao still had such abilities, and he also thought that even if Cao Cao was willing to borrow soldiers, it would not be many, so he naturally agreed. , but after getting rid of the crime and returning home, I was impatient to let people boil water and take a bath to get rid of the filth. Then I suddenly understood from Cai He''s explanation, understood the futile change of the current situation, and then saw Cao Cao The necessary materials and goods, naturally understood what kind of "a little" Liu Biao called "a little" food and grass, and could not help but gritted his teeth and scolded; "Old thief harmed a certain!" 』
But now, so what?
Cai Mao''s eyes were cloudy and cloudy, as if he had thought of something...
