Liu Pan was canonized as King of Chu, and the five counties of Jingchu and Chu became the Kingdom of Chu./www
This gave Liu Pan the foundation to legitimately rule the Chu State. Driving away Liu Bei and Sun Ce and stabilizing the Chu land gave the Chu State a starting point for its revival.
But there is still a key figure missing, and that is Kuai Yue.
With Kuai Yue, the Chu State could finally stabilize, help the Han Dynasty and resist Sun Ce's hegemony.[
The Chu State was finally able to guard the Chu State safely and securely like Liu Zhang of the Shu State, until the emperor conquered all directions. If the Chu State surrendered, it would be over. If the Chu State refused, it would be destroyed.
Therefore, after driving away Liu Bei and Zhou Yu.
Jiang Wan persuaded Liu Pan to enter Jiangling City to meet Kuai Yue who was under house arrest.
Not long ago, the city gates of Jiangling City were closed, and business travelers were only allowed in but not out. The actual leader of Jingzhou, Kuai Yue, was placed under house arrest.
Liu Cong, the nominal lord of Jingzhou, was also placed under house arrest.
But now that the restriction order has been issued, people, business travelers, and tourists can come and go freely.
Only the upper class people in Jingzhou know what amazing changes Jingzhou has undergone in this short period of time.
Kuai Mansion, in the hall.
Liu Pan dispersed all the guards, and together with Jiang Wan, persuaded Kuai Yue.
"Sir, the Han Dynasty died a long time ago. But the appearance of the king's general turned the tide and saved the Han Dynasty. Now that the hegemony has just begun, the king's general and the emperor need you and me to guard the Chu Kingdom. Sir, please wear it
Seal of the Prime Minister of Chu."
Liu Pan bent down and saluted.
"You are a man with a spear in your hand and you don't know it." Kuai Yue sighed and said.
He really didn't expect that things would turn out like this. Liu Pan would betray him and go to Lu Su. No, it was completely impossible to go to Lu Su, but that man was the current crown prince, a big man.
The crown prince of the dynasty.
The future Ninth Five-Year Plan.
Kuai Yue did not expect this, and Kuai Yue did not expect it, which led to today's defeat. However, Kuai Yue sneered at Liu Pan, thinking that he was just a pawn of the crown prince.
The technique of driving away tigers and devouring wolves is very useful.
"The emperor made it clear that if the world is peaceful, I will be the king of the princes. If the emperor is defeated, I will still be able to guard Chu. Even if I am willing to be a minion, so what." Liu Pan said indifferently.
"Mr. Yidu, today the emperor is back in power, and the crown prince is full of energy and ambition. The plan to re-establish the Han Dynasty has begun to take shape. If not for yourself, sir, you must think about the future of the Kuai family.
.”
Jiang Wan suddenly said, but it was soft but hard at the same time.[
You, Kuai Yue, must take power together with Liu Pan and guard the Chu Kingdom. Otherwise, if there is a reckoning in the future, your Kuai family will definitely be involved.
This threat works better than anything else.
Liu Pan really didn't have the spirit of a wise ruler, and Kuai Yue also knew that the situation was over. Under the current situation, all Kuai Yue could hope for was to preserve the Kuai family.
If we don't use our strength today, and the king and the general will be concerned about it tomorrow, then the Kuai family may be executed.
"I dare you not to obey me." Kuai Yue had no choice but to bow down to Liu Pan.
"Okay, hahaha."
Liu Pan cheered, looked up to the sky and laughed, but he knew that he was the king of Chu and was sitting firmly. He was a little proud.
