Chapter 216 Ju Shu's embarrasment
(I have asked for the red ticket and the collection, then ask for a reward!! Ask for a reward for the third update!!)
"I am willing to worry about the Lord." Jia Xu did not refuse. Since he turned to Liu Qi, he should do what he should do. As for whether Liu Qi adopts it or not, that is Liu Qi's business. This is Jia Xu's plan.
"Okay, in this case, Wenhe will stay with me in the future and remind me from time to time." Liu Qi laughed and said that the reason why he was so good to Jia Xu was that since Jia Xu promised to work for him, he would not be perfunctory. No matter who was around, Jia Xu would do what he should do.
"Thank you, Lord." Jia Xu sighed in his heart. Although he didn't know Liu Qi's plan, according to Liu Qi's means in the past few days, he knew that it would be difficult to get rid of Liu Qi.
As the two were talking, they heard the sound of footsteps. They turned their heads and looked at the door. A soldier came in and bowed and said, "My lord, the letter has been delivered by the military."
"Oh, bring it here." Liu Qi frowned. The military division mentioned by the soldiers is naturally Xu Shu. Now Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang have not been recognized by the soldiers. Only Xu Shu can make these soldiers respectfully call them military divisions.
"No." The soldier stepped forward and handed the bamboo slip in his hand to Liu Qi.
Liu Qi took the bamboo slip and opened it, but his face was a little surprised. The bamboo slip did not say anything. He just said that Xun Wenruo, the messenger of Cao Cao, hurriedly left Xiangyang, but left one person to say goodbye to Liu Biao.
Liu Qi smiled and handed the bamboo slip to Jia Xu and said, "What does Wen He think of this matter?"
Jia Xu was slightly surprised. Although he turned to Liu Qi, Liu Qi did not make any tests to directly involve him in this matter, which really surprised him. In his heart, he took a high look at Liu Qi and was secretly vigilant. Jia Xu took a brief glance and was stunned at first, and then felt that Xun Wen was indeed the best way to do so.
"It is reasonable for Xun Wen to do so. As for leaving that person, he only needs to pay more attention." Jia Xu put down the bamboo slips and looked at Liu Qi.
"Oh, what do you think Wenhe should do about this?" With that, Liu Qi took out another bamboo slip and gave it to Jia Xu. What was recorded on the bamboo slip was that Cai Mao secretly went to the post hall to see Xun Wenruo last night. Nowadays, although Jinyiwei can't monitor the movement of the whole Xiangyang, at least he can monitor the wind and grass in Xiangyang City.
As a result, Zhu Jian and Jia Xu were shocked again. Last night, Cai Mao went to see Xun Wenruo in disguise and couldn't recognize him even in front of him. At that time, he didn't recognize Cai Mao at first sight. Unexpectedly, he was still found by Liu Qi. Jia Xu's heart was a little heavy. He knew that this was a warning from Liu Qi: "As long as you are in Xiangyang, your every move is under my control. Don't play tricks."
"It's not convenient for my subordinates to express their opinions on this matter. It's all in the will of the Lord." Jia Xu thought for a moment and said that he was also present yesterday and had a clear understanding of what happened yesterday. It was because of this that he couldn't say anything. This was to avoid suspicion.
"Well, in this case, let me ask you, if the Cai family defected, how should we deal with it?" Liu Qi did not force it, but avoided asking at this time.
"It is secretly planned to lead all the Cai family to Xiangyang, and there are more people left in the Cai family, so as to accept the soldiers and horses of the Cai family in the future and take the opportunity to weaken the influence of Liu Kang." Jia Xu was silent for a while.
Hearing Jia Xu's words, Liu Qi was indeed a little surprised. Although Jia Xu said it euphemistically, he understood that Liu Kang was pulled into the water with the help of the Cai family, so that Liu Kang could not turn over from now on.
This strategy can't be said to be vicious. Even if Liu Chong is incompetent, he will not secretly collude with Cao Cao at this time. However, as long as Liu Qi tells the matter, even if Liu Jingduo opens his mouth, he can't explain it clearly, because Mrs. Cai, Liu Jing's mother, was also participated in this matter.
Although Liu Qi is a little moved, he does not mean to adopt this suggestion. Poisonous tricks often hurt himself when he can't hurt others. Liu Jing did make him hate him, but he was not the enemy of life and death.
And this matter involves Mrs. Cai. Once the matter is made a big deal, Liu Biao will also lose face. Although he can gain the upper hand for a while, he will leave a bad impression in Liu Biao's heart. Maybe he will be bitten by a snake instead of beating a snake.
Such an obvious mistake Jia Xu may not have seen it. He should be testing his bottom line, or looking for the bottom line for future advice.
"Well, I will consider this matter. I have prepared a mansion for Wenhe in Xiangyang. Wenhe should go and have a look. In addition, General Hu Cheer will also be handed over to Wenhe." Liu Qi didn't care about Jia Xu's means, but talked about Hu Cheer.
Hu Cheer is as brave as Zhou Cang. Now that Zhang Xiu has lost Wancheng, he may do something.
"Lord, don't worry." With that, Jia Xu stood up and said, "I'm leaving."
After Jia Xu left, Xin Xianying, dressed in plain white, came out of the screen.
"Xianying, what do you think of Jia Xu?" Liu Qi drank the wine in the glass and looked at Xin Xianying and asked.
"My husband already has the answer in his heart." Xin Xianying smiled, sat down beside Liu Qi and poured wine for Liu Qi, and said softly.
"Ha ha, Jia Wenhe is indeed a difficult person to deal with." Liu Qi sighed. He knew what Zhuge Liang needed and what Pang Tong needed, but he didn't know what Jia Xu needed. Jia Xu looked like he had no desire.
"My husband forgot why Jia Xu agreed to his husband's terms?" Xin Xianying took out a cloth towel and wiped the corners of Liu Qi's mouth.
"Oh, you mean he is for self-preservation?" Liu Qi was a little puzzled. Jia Xu's promise to him was indeed to protect himself, but what did this have to do with what he said? Would he still be unfavorable to him?
"He promised his husband's terms, but he didn't feel safe, so he was always on guard and alert. The first thing he needs is self-insurance, and then he can do things at ease. That is to say, he doesn't believe that the master will let him go like this, and he will not do his best for his husband. Self-preservation is his condition. This condition is very low but difficult to do. He is waiting for his husband's action. Xin Xianying laughed.
"Haha, Xianying's words are really enlightening. In this case, let's withdraw the people in his house." Liu Qi pulled Xin Xianying into his arms and played for a while before walking out of the study with Xin Xianying.
"Go and tell the military division that Jia Wen and everyone up and down the house will leave, and then send a hundred gold to Jia Wenhe." Liu Qi went out of the study and ordered the guards guarding the door.
"No." The guard left in a hurry.
...................................................................
Just when Xun Wenruo left Xiangyang, Zhang Wei, the messenger of Jiangdong, also left Xiangyang. Originally, he wanted to make Liu Qi lose face with this wedding, but he didn't expect to make himself gray. When Wancheng returned to Liu Biao's hands, Liu Biao no longer needed to spend most of his troops on defending Cao Cao, which was not a good thing for Jiang Dong.
Moreover, Liu Biao takes back Wancheng at such a ** time. Maybe he will touch Cao Cao's nerves. Will Cao Cao and Liu Biao have another battle around Wancheng? This is the reason why Zhang Wei is eager to leave Xiangyang. Now Jiangdong has Chen Bing and Jiangxia can attack Jingzhou at any time, and it can't be said that he is in this fight. Have a piece of pie.
Not long after Zhang Yu left Xiangyang, the envoys of other princes also left Xiangyang one after another to report the affairs of Xiangyang to their respective lords. At the same time, Xiangyang also seemed a little lonely because the people who came to attend the wedding left one after another. Although it was still lively, it was far worse than yesterday, and even a little depressed.
Just as the envoys of the princes left, Yuan Shao's envoys sat opposite each other and talked with Liu Biao and Xin Pi in the state herdsman's mansion. Although Ju Shu performed extremely low-key on Liu Qi's wedding, he did not forget this task, that is, to form an alliance with Liu Biao. Originally, he wanted to pass by Wancheng to attract Zhang Xiu when he returned to Jizhou, but he did not expect that Liu Biao took Wancheng first.
However, now Liu Biao and Xin Pi have formed a son and daughter-in-law, and the relationship between the two sides is very close. He is confident that Liu Biao will agree to form an alliance with Yuan Shao.
Jingzhou is behind Cao Cao, and Yuan Shao's power is much stronger than Cao Cao's. Cao Cao has to do his best. If Liu Biao can add some trouble to Cao Cao behind his back at this time, Cao Cao Cao will definitely lose.
"What Gongyu said is reasonable, but I have handed over the matter of Jingzhou to Qier to take care of, and Gongyu can go to discuss this matter with him." Liu looked at Ju Shudao with a smile.
"Uh..." Ju Shu was obviously stunned. Although Liu Biao said so, everyone could hear the excuse in Liu Biao's words, which made him a little unable to figure out how Liu Biao would miss such a good opportunity.
Ju Shu's heart was a little bad. He turned his head and looked at Xin Pi beside him, while Xin Pi shook his head and said, "It's inconvenient for me to participate at this time. If Gongyu can convince Qier, everything will be solved."
Although he did not sincerely assist Yuan Shao, his brother was under Yuan Shao's command and had to remind Ju Shu. And he is Liu Qi's father-in-law, and he can't let Liu Qi agree to Ju Shu's conditions regardless of anything. Therefore, he told this matter to Ju Shu, which means that the key to non-alignment lies in Liu Qi and let Ju Shu take action from Liu Qi.
As Liu Qi gradually controlled Jingzhou, Liu Biao also followed Xin Pi's suggestion that he would no longer interfere in the affairs of Jingzhou, but nominally everything came from the state pastoral government.
When Ju Shu heard the words of the two, he immediately thought of this, but his heart was a little heavy. Liu Qi's method can be different from Liu Biao's, and the people around Liu Qi are all extraordinary. How can he not see Yuan Shao's weakness?
Originally, according to Yuan Shao's current power, he only needs to wait for a year and a half to completely integrate his subordinate forces. At that time, it can be said that he can be able to deal with Cao Cao, but Yuan Shao's urgent achievements and weaknesses have also been exposed.
He believes that Liu Qi's subordinates can see this, so he is unwilling to face Liu Qi.
