Chapter 294 Zhao Fan
Lingling County, in the Taishou Mansion.
"Father, is this the spy sent by Xiangyang?"
The speaker is Liu Xian, the son of Liu Du, the governor of Lingling. Liu Xian is in his twenties, but he is one of the five tigers in Jingnan in both literature and martial arts. He is brave and resourceful and famous in the local area.
Sitting opposite Liu Xian was a middle-aged man of 40 or 50 years old. This person is Liu Du, the current governor of Lingling. After Liu Du succeeded to be the governor of Lingling, he ordered his son Liu Xian and the general Xing Daorong to command the soldiers and horses in the county to kill the Wuxi barbarians who were in chaos in Lingling. The prestige in Lingling was unmatched.
Hearing Liu Xian's inquiry, Liu Du nodded and said, "Yes, this is the Xiangyang spy that has just been sent. I was ordered to go to Xiangyang with General Xing."
"Does your father have any doubts?" Seeing Liu Du's sad face, Liu Xian frowned and asked. In his opinion, it was an opportunity for his father to go to Xiangyang. You should know that his father has been in Lingling for more than ten years. This trip to Xiangyang can just show his loyalty to Liu Qi and take the opportunity to gain a foothold in Xiangyang.
"There are indeed some doubts as a father. It is not known whether it is a blessing or a bad luck to go to Xiangyang this time. You should know that once the emperor is a minister, and the eldest prince succeeds Jingzhou Pastor, the whole situation in Jingzhu will become different. Although Lingling is far away from the emperor, Xiangyang can't control it for many times, but now only Lingling and Guiyang counties in the whole nine counties of Jingzhou have not been controlled by the eldest son. This time, the eldest son of Xiangyang is bound to make trouble for Lingling and Guiyang. As a father, he doesn't know how to choose?
Liu Du shook his head and sighed. Although he has been far away from Xiangyang these years, he has lived a very comfortable life. He doesn't have to worry all day long. This trip to Xiangyang may be the end of his good days.
"Father, what else is the difficult choice? Now the eldest son is under the control of the eldest son, the Flying Dragon Army and the Flying Tiger Army, and most of the whole Jingzhou is already under the control of the eldest son. Even if the father wants to resist, there is nothing to do. It's better to directly hand over the position of Lingling Taishou and take it. Get the trust of the eldest son. Moreover, Lingling is too far away from Xiangyang. Even if there is something, it can't be taken care of. It's better to take the opportunity to directly take a foothold in Xiangyang. Now the eldest prince clearly wants to compete with the princes of the world. There is really no merit to establish in Lingling. On the contrary, there are many things that can be done in Xiangyang, as long as the father If you gain the trust of the eldest son, why don't you have a chance to get ahead in the future?
Liu Xian frowned and said that since Liu Qi came out of Xiangyang for the first time, he began to pay attention to Liu Qi. After that, Liu Qi's power was getting stronger and higher all the way, and the soldiers and horses in his hand became stronger day by day. He made up his mind to follow Liu Qi. Jingzhou has been so weak over the years that he can't stand it for a long time.
"That being said, how serious the power struggle in Xiangyang is. If you are not careful, you will lose all the game. It's better to live in this Lingling."
Liu Du is very clear about Liu Xian's thoughts. Liu Xian is still young and he is at the age to make contributions. He is not surprised to have such thoughts.
"Father, why did the spy only let my father and General Xing go to Xiangyang without mentioning me? Does my father know the reason?" Liu Xiandao.
"Ha ha, if we really call us all to Xiangyang, I dare not go." Liu Du smiled and said that Liu Qi was just calming his heart.
"Since my father knows the thoughts of the eldest son, he should know that the whole Jingzhou is in the hands of the eldest son. Since the father did not want to get out of the control of the eldest son, he can only rush to Xiangyang to support the eldest son as soon as possible. Otherwise, wouldn't it make the eldest son doubt that the Cai family has just been killed, and the whole Jing There are still many families in the state who are against the eldest son. If the eldest son thinks that his father is the same as these families, the whole Lingling will probably become restless because of this. Liu Xian said with a solemn face.
"The eldest son is right. Although the last general doesn't understand this, he also knows that only by gaining the trust of the eldest son can the master gain a foothold in Jingzhou. Otherwise, once the eldest son feels that the master has a different intention, the soldiers and horses stationed in Changsha County may immediately visit Lingling." Xing Daorong nodded.
"I know, I just thought that if Xian'er and General Xing rushed to Xiangyang together, would the eldest son be dissatisfied?" Liu Du took a look at Liu Xian. He knew Liu Xian's thoughts. If Liu Xian could go to Xiangyang, he might be appreciated by Liu Qi.
"No, nowadays, only Lingling and Guiyang in Jingzhou are not under the control of the eldest son. If the father does not go to Xiangyang in person, it will only make others think that his father is shirted." Liu Xian immediately shook his head.
"Then I can only go there myself." Liu Du sighed.
.......................................................................................
At the same time, in the Taishou Mansion of Guiyang County, Zhao Fan, the Taishou of Guiyang, also called his general Bao Long and Chen Ying to discuss the trip to Xiangyang.
However, unlike Liu Du, Liu Du did not take the position of Changsha Taishou too seriously, but Zhao Fan is far less frank than Liu Du.
"If the lord is worried, don't go on this trip to Xiangyang. Just send someone to send a letter." Looking at Zhao Fan's worried face, Bao Long said.
"How can that work? Now the master is alone. If he doesn't go, won't Liu Qi have an excuse to deal with the master?" Chen Ying shook his head and retorted.
"That's all. You can step back first." Zhao Fan waved his hand to make the two retreat and read it carefully with the spy alone.
The spy only asked him and the grand prize Bao Long to go to Xiangyang, but General Chen Ying did not mention at all that it was obviously to let him stay in Guiyang, but this made Zhao Fan more worried.
Few people in Jingzhou know that he was recommended as the governor of Guiyang by Cai Mao. Speaking of which, he is the power of the Cai family. Some time ago, Liu Qi's sudden rise and suppression of the Cai family has made him uneasy, and the sudden fall of the Cai family made him more frightened. In fact, there are not many forces that are secretly loyal to the Cai family in Jingzhou. These forces are more or less controlled by the Cai family. They should be extremely happy for the extinction of the Cai family, but the day before yesterday, a bamboo slip recording his relationship with the Cai family appeared in his study, which suddenly made him Lost a square inch.
The whole Jingzhou knows that the Cai family is Liu Qi's sworn enemy. Once this matter spreads, he must die. Zhu Jian also said that he was asked to secretly support his son Liu Kong. He has been thinking about the gains and losses these days. Only important figures in the Cai family know about him and the Cai family, and even Mrs. Cai doesn't know. Now that this bamboo slip appears here, it is obvious that there are still people living in the Cai family and are important figures of the Cai family.
Although it is extremely dangerous to secretly support Liu Cong, he gets much more than he pays. Now Liu Qi's power has a prototype. If he relies on Liu Qi, he may not be able to gain Liu Qi's trust. Even if he obtains Liu Qi's trust, he can only maintain a noble one. Yang Taishou remains unchanged.
But if he supports Liu Cong, once Liu Cong turns over in the future, he will get more than just a Guiyang county. Although the Cai family has a huge power, after the last heavy damage, his power has shrunk sharply. He can be sure that his power must be the strongest power in Liu Cong's hands now, that is to say, once When Liu Kang turned over, he might be the next Cai family, or even replace him with Liu Jing.
"General, a man who claimed to be surnamed Chai came to see him." Just then, a voice sounded outside the door.
"Let him in." Zhao Fan's eyes flashed. Isn't Chai Cai? I'd like to see who else in the Cai family is not dead.
"I haven't seen you for a long time." After a while, a loud voice came in, which made Zhao Fan's heart tremble in the room.
Zhao Fan looked up at the door and was even more shocked. Hearing the voice, he felt that it was Cai Xun, but he didn't expect it to be true. Among Cai Mao's brothers, Cai Xun is the best at conspiracy and tricks, and his methods are fierce, which is the last thing he wants to meet. He didn't expect that Cai Xun was not dead.
"Why, don't you know Taishou?" Cai Xun looked at Zhao Fandao with a smile.
Waving his hand to let the guards around him retreat, Zhao Fan asked Cai Xun into the room: "I knew you wouldn't die easily."
"Ha ha, I'm afraid Zhao Taishou can't wait for me to die." Cai Xun shook his head and said, "I'm here to ask Zhao Taishou what he is thinking about?"
"Brother Cai joked. My Taishou was given by Cai. Can I still refuse?" Zhao Fan smiled and said.
"Oh, Zhao Taishou will not regret today's decision." Cai Xun seemed to have expected that Zhao Fan would agree, so he was not surprised.
"I don't know what Brother Cai wants to do next. You should know that after Liu Qi integrates the power of Jingzhou, it will be difficult to turn over." Zhao Fan asked.
"Ha ha, then Liu Qi killed dozens of families in Xiangyang and recovered the military power of the Kua clan. Now he has called the families of various counties to gather in Xiangyang. Obviously, he wants to take the opportunity to suppress the family. Then I will provoke the relationship between these families and Liu Qi. As long as these families unite to resist Liu Qi, then the whole Jingzhou will be in chaos, and the more chaotic Jingzhou is, the more beneficial it will be to us. Cai Xun did not hide his mouth.
"Oh, there are so many families in Jingzhou. I don't know which families you want to do?" Zhao Fandao.
"For more than ten years, my Cai family has supported so many families. Now that the Cai family has just fallen, these families have become disobedient, and it is useless to stay in the world." Cai Xun sneered.
"This..." Zhao Fan felt cold in his heart and was shocked by Cai Xun's cruel methods.
"What, Zhao Taishou doesn't want to?" With Zhao Fan's expression in his eyes, Cai Xun took a look at Zhao Fandao.
"How can you not be? It's what you mean." Zhao Fan exhaled.
