Chapter 70 Showdown

Liu Jing's words were not only to comfort Liu Pan, but he really thought so in his heart. As long as Qu Xiong did not appear in front of him, causing trouble and thus affecting his layout and big plans, so what if he let him go? After all, he is an insignificant person.

Huan Jie looked at Liu Pan who was gradually calming down and couldn't help but be amazed. Liu Pan's temper was in line with his fame. Who had never learned about his power from the prefect to the minor officials in Changsha County? Liu Jing could calm him down in just a few words, which was really rare.

Liu Pan himself also found it very strange. He summoned Liu Jing for the first time and was furious when talking about his achievements. It was Liu Jing's words that made him completely relieved and calmed his anger.

Why does this happen? Liu Pan thinks it may be related to Liu Jing's calm and calm temperament. Whether it is his grades or Qu Xiong, in his eyes, it seems like a stone on the roadside, and Liu Pan also feels that it is not worth it to be angry with such villains.

The four of them sat and talked for a while, and the interior became dark. In ancient times, without glass windows, indoor lighting has always been a big problem. Even the palace was not much better than ordinary houses, so they could only light up more candles.

Liu Jingdian had the only two oil lamps in the house, and the four of them continued to talk with candles.

Huan Jie glanced at Liu Jing's slightly dim face under the lights and said, "I heard from the Minister of the Cong. Zhongda inferred based on the situation in Guanzhong that the emperor will definitely get rid of the generals of Liangzhou and return to Luoyang in one or two years?" This question has been in his heart for a long time.

Liu Pan was surprised when he heard this: "Oh? Did Zhongda say such things? Why don't I know?"

Liu Jing did not rush to answer, but turned his head to look at Huan Yi: "Why don't Brother Huan keep secrets for the sake of being the next door?"

Huan Yi smiled and replied, "Since I heard Zhongda's words at that day's banquet, I was impressed by Zhongda Pei, wishing that the world knew all the power of Zhongda. Now it is quite difficult to reveal it to my brother."

Liu Jing shook his head and smiled, "This is just a fool's opinion. Of course, the fewer people know, the better. If everyone knows it, it will prove that the speculation is wrong in the end. Wouldn't it be a joke?"

Huan Yi said instead: "What if it's right?"

Liu Jing smiled and said to Liu Pan, Huan Jie, "Brother Huan is full of confidence in me."

Huan Jie was itchy and couldn't wait to say, "Zhongda just wait for us."

Liu Pan also said, "It's okay for Zhongda to say it."

Liu Jing had no idea of ​​hiding it, and smiled and said, "Okay, since Gang Ji, I want to hear my personal foolish opinions, so I won't refuse it, Guanzhong..."

This statement lasted for most of the time. During this period, Liu Jing spoke in a lingering manner. In the eyes of outsiders, the chaos in Guanzhong was cut open like a cattle by Liu Jing, and everything was presented in front of him one by one. Liu Pan and Huan Jie were all shocked.

At that banquet that day, Huan Yi couldn't remember some parts of the food because he drank a lot of wine. Now that he listened to it again, he was still shocked.

After hearing this, Huan Jie couldn't help but sigh: "Zhongda is really an extraordinary person!" This is the second time he has expressed such emotion today.

The conversation was over, and the three of them offered to say goodbye. Liu Jing kept sending the three out of the hospital, watching Liu Pan, Huan Jie walked away on the moon, and said to Huan Yi who was about to return home: "Brother Huan, let me tell you something. Kong Ming will leave Linxiang the next day and set off for Xiangyang."

Huan Yi looked surprised and said, "So quickly? Is his uncle recovered from illness?"

Liu Jing sighed: "It's just a first recovery. I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble when I start in such a hurry."

Huan Yi was also a little regretful and said, "I will send you off with Zhongda the next day."

Liu Jing nodded and said goodbye to Huan Yi. He returned to the dim room. Not long after he sat down, a sound came from his belly. Only then did he remember that he had not had supper at night.

Liu Pan, Huan Jie, and Huan Yi were rich and did not enter the kitchen. They were sent to the officials by slaves every day. Even though they were envious, Liu Jing did not blame others. God gave him a chance to be reborn. This is the greatest gift in the world. What else do you want to ask for?

Liu Jing ignored the day and cooked some simple meals, regardless of the fact that it was getting late, and reserved for tomorrow's breakfast.

After drinking and eating, when the night was late, Liu Jing sat cross-legged on the bed, staring straight at the fluorescent lights, staring blankly.

From tomorrow, he will become very busy in the future. He has a lot of plans, so it is difficult to straighten out for a while. How to implement them one by one is a big problem.

It was not until he was resting in the middle of the night that he had a general plan.

The next day, Liu Jing sent someone to find Cai Sheng.

Seeing Cai Sheng wearing a small crown and a brocade robe coming slowly, Liu Jing secretly praised him. Although Cai Sheng was born in the market and did not know books, he was dressed neatly at any time. If he knew, he would just think that he was a child of a gentry family.

This is much stronger than Ma Zhou. Ma Zhou never puts clothes on, and only wears a towel all day, so he doesn't want to wear a crown.

Cai Sheng came to the market building every few days, so he walked into the door with a familiarity and said, "Jun Liu, are you looking for me?"

"Hongchao, sit." Liu Jing pointed at the cushion in front of him with a smile.

Cai Sheng nodded and leaned on the straw mat. His sitting posture looked more correct and standard than Liu Jing.

Liu Jing poured him a glass of water and asked, "You guys drank until the market closed yesterday?"

"More than that," Cai Sheng laughed: "Later we went to Brother Zhu's house to drink hard, and the meal lasted until the second half of the night. Zi Jin is still sleeping soundly at Brother Zhu's house."

When he heard Cai Sheng mention Zhu A, Liu Jing took the opportunity to ask: "Hongchao, how long have you known Zhu A for you?"

Cai Sheng didn't know why Liu Jing asked about this and replied: "It's been almost three years."

Liu Jingwei said: "Based on my observation during the meal yesterday, Zhu A is indeed a rare hero and generous..."

Cai Sheng nodded repeatedly when he heard this, but he didn't expect Liu Jing to change his mind: "But... Zhu A is a hero, but stealing is ultimately a matter of chickens and dogs, and it is not done by a real man."

"This... Cai Sheng vaguely realized something was wrong and quickly defended Zhu A: "Brother Zhu is not to harm the villagers, he only steals foreign merchants who traveled between the north and the south."

Liu Jing smiled and said, "Hongchao, these words can only be used to deceive ignorant people. Do you want to use them to deceive me?"

In desperation, Cai Sheng had to play the emotional card: "Brother Zhu also drew his sword to help Liu Jun yesterday..."

Liu Jing shook his head slowly and said, "I wish you good deeds yesterday, and I will never forget it. However, the "Fa Jing" says: 'The king's policy is not as anxious as thieves.' Stealing is the most harmful thing in the city, and the people are worried about it. As the history of the city, I am the first to take power today. First of all, I must resolve the difficulties of the people, so stealing must be eliminated."
