Before Cai Mao could speak, he heard Liu Biao scolding him.
It was obvious that Liu Biao knew what Cai Mao wanted to say.
Unfortunately, Liu Biao's angry eyes only made Cai Mao hesitate for a moment.
In the end, Cai Mao could not be stopped.
"When Deng was engaged, did he know that great changes had taken place in Jingzhou?"
Deng Zhi pretended not to know and shook his head gently.
"I don't know, I've been traveling between Xuchang and Chang'an these days."
"If it weren't for Duke Qin's request, I would still like to rest in Chang'an for a while!"
Cai Mao had no doubt about this, and he also knew that Liu Zhang was never idle.
"Hey, let's be honest! Liu Bei and Liu Qi jointly attacked Jiangling!"
"At present, the entire Nanjun, except for a few cities near Xiangyang, is all occupied by Liu Bei!"
Deng Zhi's eyes widened, pretending to be shocked.
"This is happening! No wonder Duke Qin hates Liu Bei so much!"
When Cai Mao heard this, he immediately became energetic.
"Deng Zhizhi and Cai have long heard that Duke Qin hates Liu Bei deeply. Is this true?"
"good!"
Deng Zhi nodded confidently, then showed a look of disgust.
"Liu Bei was originally a refugee with a background of weaving mats and selling shoes, but he used the guise of being a Han clan member to deceive people all day long!"
"However, this person is very good at pretending to give the world the image of a benevolent king, but in fact he is extremely dirty inside and wants to dominate!"
"Qin Gong once said that Liu Bei, the most powerful hero in the world, is the best at taking advantage of others! Tao Qian was killed by him in the past!"
Cai Mao nodded repeatedly, Deng Zhi's words seemed to speak to his heart.
"Sure enough, Duke Qin has learned the truth! This big-eared thief deceives the world and steals his name, and he cheats! Now he has set his sights on Jingzhou again!"
"Hey! Master Zhou Mu's son Liu Qi was deceived by Liu Bei. Now he has mobilized all the troops from Jingnan to attack Nanjun. Seeing that Jingzhou's foundation is about to be taken away by Liu Bei!"
As Cai Hao spoke, his eye circles turned red, looking completely heartbroken.
"It's really abominable that this happened!"
Deng Zhi cooperated very well and immediately showed a look of indignation.
"Why doesn't General Cai personally lead the army to conquer?"
Cai Mao's eyes twitched, and he didn't know where to put his hands in embarrassment.
This Deng Zhi really doesn’t want to open any pot!
Although he complained in his heart, Cai Mao could not express any dissatisfaction. In his eyes, Deng Zhi said it unintentionally.
"Deng Zongzong didn't know what he was doing. Cai just returned from defeat... ugh!"
Cai Mao then narrated the battle to Deng Zhi, but it was indispensable to add more fuel and jealousy to show that Liu Bei was despicable and shameless.
"No wonder General Cai lost the battle. Who would have thought that Liu Bei is so treacherous!"
Cai Mao really wanted to hold Deng Zhi and cry, but he didn't expect that the other party would understand him so well!
"Hey! Cai is so ashamed of the people of Jingxiang! Let them fall into the hands of the big-eared thief Liu Bei!"
Deng Zhi pondered for a while before looking at Cai Hao again.
"General Cai needs Duke Qin's help?"
Cai Mao has been acting for so long, and what he has been waiting for is Deng Zhi's words.
"Exactly! Cai begged Qin Gong to send troops to save Jingzhou from fire and water, and make Jiangling the burial place of the big-eared thief!"
Deng Zhi frowned, gently held his chin with his hand, and fell into deep thought.
After a long time, Deng Zhi replied to Cai Hao, but he did not agree.
"This matter is of great importance. I have to go back and report it to Duke Qin!"
Cai Mao did not expect Deng Zhi to agree, but asked Deng Zhi to pass the message on his behalf.
"Please also ask Deng to tell Duke Qin about the difficulties in Jingzhou and let Duke Qin punish this arrogant big-eared thief!"
In order to make Deng Zhi feel the same, Cai Mao showed grief and anger again.
"Deng is engaged in this matter, please do it!"
With that said, Cai Mao bowed his hands and gave Deng Zhi a big salute.
Deng Zhi quickly helped Cai Mao up and immediately agreed to come down.
"Don't worry, General Cai. I will tell Duke Qin truthfully!"
After all discussions were completed, Deng Zhi finally embarked on his return journey.
Due to time constraints, Deng Zhi did not dare to delay.
Even so, it took half a month to step into the gate of Chang'an City.
At the same time, a dusty man also entered the Weiyang Palace.
"Bo Xi, I have been waiting for you day and night, and finally you are here!"
Liu Zhang trotted all the way to the gate of Weiyang Palace, and was extremely surprised when he saw Wei Jian in front of him.
Wei Qi was a little flattered, but he didn't expect Liu Zhang to be so enthusiastic about him now.
"Wei Jian pays homage to... Duke Qin!"
This title was really hard for Wei Qi to adapt to.
I remember that when the two met for the first time, Liu Zhang was still a rear general.
Unexpectedly, after many years, the Han Dynasty was declining day by day, but Liu Zhang was rising step by step, and his power was even different!
General Hou, General Wei, Yizhou Mu, Qin Gong!
Wei Jian knew very well that Duke Qin was definitely not Liu Zhang's end!
"Bo Xi, there's no need to be polite! I haven't officially declared you duke yet."
"Come, please come inside!"
Liu Zhang brought Wei Jian into the palace and placed him in a relatively forward position.
However, the Weiyang Palace was too big, and with Liu Zhang sitting in the main seat, it still gave Wei Qian a very different feeling.
Wei Jian once visited Sikong Mansion in Xuchang. There was a huge difference between meeting Cao Cao and meeting Liu Zhang!
"After many years of separation, I never expected that Duke Qin would already rule the world!"
Liu Zhang smiled and waved his hand, but did not take the word.
"Bo Xi is joking, your Majesty is the only one who rules the world!"
"As a descendant of the empress of the Han Dynasty, I should take it as my own responsibility to revive the Han Dynasty!"
"Even if you are called a duke, you are still a Han minister!"
A hint of admiration flashed in Wei Jian's eyes. He never expected that Liu Zhang could still be so humble to this day!
Back in Sikong Mansion, Wei Jianke never saw a trace of awe in Cao Cao's eyes.
"Qin Gong is still the same as before. Wei Qi admires him!"
"Bochu, have you been invited to come this time? Gongda has told you, right?"
Liu Zhang did not ramble and went directly to the topic.
You can reminisce about the past at any time, but the most important thing now is what happened in Hedong.
Wei Jian nodded slightly.
"That's right! Gongda's letter made it very clear."
"Bo Xi, since you have come to Chang'an in person, you won't refuse, right?"
Liu Zhang's eyes were full of hope and he did not hide his thoughts.
On the one hand, he needed help from the Wei family. Wei Jian himself was also a distinguished figure in the world, and Liu Zhang also loved him very much.
At least the two of them were very destined, from being antagonistic to becoming friends, from using each other to helping Liu Zhang unilaterally.
When Liu Zhang went to Yizhou to develop, he was unable to recruit Wei Jian.
Things are different now. Serving for Liu Zhang has become a great opportunity for Wei Qi to show off his talents.
Wei Jian immediately stood up, walked to the middle and knelt on the ground.
"If it weren't for Duke Qin's kindness, the Wei family would have been destroyed long ago!"
"Now that the Duke of Qin has taken notice of him, Wei Jian bursts into tears with gratitude!"
"Wei Ji is willing to lead the Wei clan to submit to Qin Gong and do the hard work of dogs and horses!"
Liu Zhang was immediately overjoyed. Wei Jian did not disappoint him!
