Chapter 248: Liu Biao's concerns

"Let me tell you what you two would do if you were among the rebels!"

Cao Cao and others stood outside with their hands down, listening attentively.

"You shouldn't imitate Cheng Zhongde who goes into battle to kill the enemy. He is a master of martial arts and can kill someone with just one kick.

What you should learn from Jia Wenhe is that when you encounter the rebels, you immediately pack up your things and run away, do you understand?"

Seeing Cao Cao, Xun Yu and others suddenly turned their heads to look at themselves,

Jia Xu's eyes widened, he pointed at himself, and opened and closed his lips to try to distinguish something, but in the end he just sighed and cursed in his heart: "Lu Changsheng, I won't be happy if you don't cheat me for a day, right?"

At this time, Lu Yan in the study spoke again,

"I gave the Peiyuan Pill to you two that I couldn't bear to eat myself.

If you don’t know how to cherish it, after you die, I will immediately take your corpses and re-melt the Yuan-Pui Dan!"

Cao Cao and others were trembled by Lu Yan's words, and Cheng Yu was dumbfounded and murmured to himself: "What kind of precious elixir is Pei Yuan Dan? It can actually make Chang Sheng say such shocking words!"

As if they knew what they were doing was wrong, Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai kept silent and did not dare to talk back at all.

Lu Yan continued: "Thanks to Peiyuan Danhe for improving your physique, this has extended your lifespan. But if you don't cherish it and continue to abuse yourself, what's the use of the best things?

Don’t you feel that you have let down my good intentions?”

Xi Zhicai finally replied with a wry smile: "Sir, I know I was wrong... I can still live today because of Mr. Minano's teachings and the effect of Peiyuan Dan on improving my physical condition. I will never put myself in danger again in the future.

I don’t dare to waste any of your heart and soul, sir.”

"Yes...me too..." Guo Jia agreed with a frown.

After so many years, the system has rewarded two Peiyuan Pills, and their preciousness is self-evident.

When Lu Yan learned that these two guys actually imitated Cheng Yu to put on armor and carry a sword to kill the enemy, he was immediately furious.

The two guys, whose combined force value is only five, are not going to kill the enemy, they are clearly going to kill them!

Lu Yan saw that Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai's "admittance" attitude was quite good, so he sighed and said: "That's all, I don't really want to reinvent you, I just hope you can take care of your body."

"Yes, Changsheng, don't be angry. My lord and the others may come today, and it won't be good if they see you." Guo Jia said with a flattering smile.

But Lu Yan raised the corner of his mouth and said, "It's too late, they all heard it!"

"Ah!" Guo Jia suddenly screamed. This was like a large-scale social death scene. "I, Guo Fengxiao, have a great reputation!"

Cao Cao burst out laughing and said, "Mr. Lu, Fengxiao and Zhicai are just hot-blooded, so don't be too harsh on them."

As he said that, Cao Cao and others had already walked in.

"I've met Duke Cao, I've met all my colleagues..." Lu Yan saluted and asked, "Are you here for Yuan Shao's attack on Hanoi County?"

"Exactly!" Cao Cao found a place to sit down and said: "Zi Xiao, Gongming has transferred 20,000 soldiers from Dongjun, plus 30,000 troops from the headquarters, to support Hanoi County. But I am still afraid that Yuan Shao will

We will send a large army there again, so I want to convene everyone to discuss how to deal with Yuan Shao next."

It was only more than a month before the Battle of Guandu, and Yuan Shao started to cause trouble again.

However, this month Cao Cao also mobilized soldiers from various places. Now he has 70,000 troops ready to fight. Coupled with the fact that he has sufficient food and the morale of his soldiers is high, it is not impossible to go north to fight.

To be honest, Cao Cao himself didn't expect that he could recover so quickly. If it weren't for the fact that winter was about to begin, he might have led his army north to fight Yuan Shao again.

Whether it is Cao Cao or Yuan Shao, in their eyes, the other party is the tiger on the side of the bed.

If you don’t remove it, you won’t be able to sleep at night!

...

Jingzhou, Xiangyang City.

Zhuge Jin came to Jingzhou as an official according to Zhuge Xuan's arrangement.

Liu Biao still thought highly of this talented junior of his old friend. The two often talked with each other heart-to-heart, and they were considered to have a good personal relationship.

In the residence of General Zhennan, Zhuge Jin and Liu Biao sat opposite each other.

After Liu Biao thought for a moment, he said to Zhuge Jin: "I never thought that Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao's 400,000 troops with 100,000 troops. It's really terrifying!"

After adding tea to Liu Biao, Zhuge Jin replied: "My lord, Cao Cao is very decisive and has countless capable men under his command. However, Yuan Shao is indecisive and appoints villains. It is not incomprehensible that he failed."

When it came to appointing villains, Liu Biao couldn't help but sigh.

Zhuge Jin knew what Liu Biao was sighing about, but he couldn't say it to his face.

Unexpectedly, Liu Biao pondered for a moment and then took the initiative to say: "Sigh! My eldest son Liu Qi is dull and indulges in drinking and sex all day long, and it is difficult for him to achieve great things. My second son Liu Cong is very smart and well-behaved, but the youngest...

Now that I am over sixty years old, I don’t know who to choose as my successor... I really don’t know what will happen to Jingzhou in a hundred years from now."

Zhuge Jin didn't want to get involved in Liu Biao's family affairs, but Liu Biao asked him face to face, so Zhuge Jin had no choice but to reply, "My lord, you are still in good health, there is no need to act too hastily."

Liu Biao chuckled and said: "Now that Cai is in power and has a lot of troops, I don't know if I will ever fall asleep and not be able to wake up..."

Zhuge Jin thought: "It turns out that Liu Biao is not completely stupid. At least he knows where his biggest threat comes from..."

After thinking for a moment, Zhuge Jin felt a sudden change in his mind and said: "Since ancient times, there has been an orderly arrangement of elders and younger ones, and it is most likely to cause problems if the elders are abolished and the younger ones are established.

Moreover, although the eldest son is a bit dull, he has inherited the benevolence of his lord and can give the people of Jingzhou a pure land.

Therefore, I hope that my lord will think twice before taking action!"

By coincidence, a little maid serving tea came over at this time and heard what Zhuge Jin said to Liu Biao.

The maid forced herself to calm down and put the teapot on the table, then hurried to the backyard.

As soon as she walked into Cai's room, the maid shouted anxiously: "Madam, it's not good, madam!"

The lady the maid refers to is Mrs. Cai, who is Cai Mao's sister and the biological mother of Liu Biao's youngest son, Liu Cong.

After entering the room, the maid saw Cai sitting by the window teaching her son Liu Cong to practice calligraphy. She immediately came to Cai's ear carefully and whispered: "Madam, Zhuge Jin and the master have talked about establishing an heir!"

Ms. Cai comes from the Cai family, a famous family in Jingzhou. She is a lady from a famous family. She is deeply influenced by the Cai family's family tradition and is calm and unfazed by changes.

Seeing the little girl's panic, she already guessed that Zhuge Jin might have said something detrimental to her.

But Liu Cong was still young, and she didn't want him to be exposed to these dark sides prematurely, so she said to Liu Cong: "Cong'er, you continue to practice calligraphy, and you will come back as soon as you go for your mother."

"Okay mother, you go and do your work first."

Liu Cong was very obedient. Mrs. Cao touched his head and motioned for the little maid to go out and talk to her.

When they came to the courtyard outside, Ms. Cai asked the maid: "Tell me, what did Zhuge Jin say to the master?"

The little maid quickly repeated what Zhuge Jin said to Liu Biao. Although Ms. Cai had been mentally prepared, she still felt a little worried in her heart.

Zhuge Jin is the nephew of Liu Biao's old friend Zhuge Xuan, and he plays a very important role in Liu Biao's heart.

Moreover, Liu Biao has become somewhat wary of the Cai family, Kuai family and other families in recent years, which has to make Cai family feel some hidden worries.

Ms. Cai calmly took off the bracelet from her hand, handed it to the maid, and said, "You did a good job... If there is any important news in the future, remember to inform me as soon as possible."

The maid received a heavy reward and immediately thanked her profusely and retreated.

In the huge backyard, Ms. Cai stood alone in the yard for a long time, her eyes flickering on and off, and she didn't know what she was thinking in her heart...
