Liu Cong originally did not want to adopt Deng Ai as his adopted son. After all, he was only seventeen years old, not much older than him.
But now that Deng became his woman, that was a different matter. Deng Ai had to be given a status. He could no longer see Deng as he had before.
After Deng Ai left, there was some silence in the yard. Deng was a little scared, but more happy. She understood that with Liu Cong's identity, she accepted Deng Ai as her adopted son, and Deng Ai would have a way out in the future.
"When things in Jingzhou are no longer busy, Gu will invite the best teachers to teach him and the best doctors to diagnose and treat his stuttering." Deng lowered her head and listened to Liu Cong's words, feeling happy in her heart.
"Ah." While Deng was stunned, Liu Cong hugged her and lifted her chin. Deng's face turned red with embarrassment, "That day, Gu was drunk, but since you have become Gu's woman, then
I will treat you well and I will treat Deng Ai well. Are you satisfied with what happened today?"
Deng blushed with embarrassment, nodded and blinked slightly.
Liu Cong leaned his head over and blew gently into Deng's ear, "I will leave for Jingnan tomorrow, how can you please me?"
"I would like to serve the Marquis of Chu." Liu Cong heard Deng's inaudible murmur.
"Haha." Liu Cong smiled, pinched Deng's almost dripping face and said, "Isn't it time for you to change your title now?"
Deng avoided Liu Cong's cannibalistic gaze and said, "Husband...husband."
"Hahaha." Liu Cong laughed, hugged Deng and walked into the house. Deng shyly buried her head in Liu Cong's chest until Liu Cong carried her into the house.
"Liu Bei, you are so arrogant, how can my lord hand over the four counties of Jingnan to you!" In the prefect's mansion in Changsha, Han Xuan glared at Liu Bei and others.
Liu Bei was a little impatient and said, "Prefect Han, don't worry, you will know when you meet a person."
Two soldiers then carried Liu Qi inside, who was lying on the wooden board. Liu Qi was now completely disabled, eating, drinking and having fun wherever he went. He was awake for no more than two hours a day.
But it just so happens that what Liu Bei needs is such a fool.
"The eldest son?" Han Xuan stood up and took a look. He was a little unsure. He walked directly to Liu Qi and finally saw clearly that this drunk man was the eldest son Liu Qi!
Zhuge Liang walked to Han Xuan and said with a distant feather fan: "The defeat of Cao Cao by the Marquis of Chu is a critical moment to govern the place and appease the people. In the Jingbei region, the war has just ended, and it is the time to recruit people. My lord and the Marquis of Chu took the initiative.
I would like to invite Mr. Liu Qi to be the governor of the four counties in Jingnan, and my Lord will assist him. Prefect Han, do you have any questions?"
"Do you have any documents?" Han Xuan was not stupid. Liu Qi and Liu Cong were not getting along. This was something that everyone knew many years ago.
"I was burned by Mr. Liu Qi after he got drunk." This reason is really lame.
"Then forgive me for not obeying your order." Han Xuan rolled his sleeves and sat back on the throne.
Liu Bei gave Zhang Fei a look, and Zhang Fei walked over and grabbed Han Xuan.
"What are you doing? Liu Bei? What are you doing? Do you want to rebel?"
"Put it down."
"Liu Bei, you hypocrite, our Lord is kind enough to take you in, but you actually have second thoughts. Liu Bei, just wait, my Lord will definitely take care of you."
Listening to Han Xuan's cry when he was taken away, Liu Bei looked pitiful, pointed at Liu Qi and said, "If you hadn't been a bastard for this, how could you have ruined half of my wisdom!"
"Lord, now is not the time to be angry, we need to recruit troops quickly." Zhuge Liang stepped forward and said.
Previously, Zhuge Liang suggested going to Jiangxia first and using Liu Qi's identity to take away troops, but now most of Jingxiang's troops are in Xiangyang. This plan was abandoned, and Liu Bei's group took Liu Qi directly south to Jingnan.
"Kong Ming, is this really okay? After all, I am Liu Cong's uncle, and I want to seize his territory. In the name of justice, we are afraid..." Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang and said.
Zhuge Liang pointed at Liu Qi with his feather fan, "Master, if we make good use of him, we can easily control the four counties in Jingnan. Please rest assured, Master."
"My lord, in the name of the eldest son Liu Bei, he sent Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun, each with a thousand troops, to take over the four counties. Except for Gong Zhi, the prefect of Wuling, he closed the city gates and did not allow Guan Yu to enter. The other three counties were all
Accepted by Liu Bei."
At this time, Liu Cong had just marched to Jiangling when he received such disgusting news.
"Old thief Liu Bei is despicable and shameless. He is simply the most shameless person in the world." Even though Liu Cong came from a later generation, he was also manipulated by Liu Bei and was furious.
"Speed up the march!"
When Liu Cong arrived in Changsha, the city gates of Changsha were closed. Liu Cong sent someone to shout.
"Liu Bei, get out!"
"Liu Bei, get out!"
A moment later, the figures of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang appeared at the top of the city. Liu Cong stepped forward and asked, "Uncle Emperor, what do you mean?"
Liu Bei didn't know what to say, but Zhuge Liang said, "Chu Hou, Mr. Liu is afraid of being harmed by you, so he asked my lord to help him control the four counties in Jingnan in order to protect himself."
"Zhuge Liang, if I want to kill my eldest brother, he will not survive today. But you, my father and son, have taken you in to live in Jingzhou for two generations. Now that you are here, don't have any second thoughts and try to separate the regime. Uncle Emperor, do you still want to face me?"
Liu Bei looked at the angry Liu Cong outside the city and said with some grievance, "Good nephew, Bei is really forced to do so. Mr. Liu Qi is forcing me to do so with my life."
"Then you open the city gate, and I'll go in and see my elder brother." Liu Cong said again.
"No, no, if you come in, your eldest brother's life will be at risk. My dear nephew, you retreat first. When your eldest brother can stand on his own in Jingnan in the future, I will go to Xiangyang in person to apologize to you." Liu Bei spoke in a tone of voice.
It's so sincere.
"You fart. Liu Bei, you are such a bastard. My father and son let you stay in Jingzhou in vain. You are so mean today. Attack the city!" Liu Cong was really furious.
"Lord, Liu's army is not weak at all. I'm afraid we have no chance of winning when we attack the city." Jiang Wan advised from the side.
"Tell Pang Tong to lead the army south immediately, Wancheng, I don't want to be alone, Jingnan cannot tolerate any loss." Liu Cong looked at Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang on the city with hatred and said.
"promise."
"My lord, Gong Zhi of Wuling may not be able to resist Guan Yu. We have to send people to support him," Jiang Wan said again.
"Huang Zhong, I will give you five thousand men to support Wu Ling. If you encounter Guan Yu, attack directly without mercy."
"Nuo." Huang Zhong also held his breath. He also saw the performance of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang just now. He really didn't expect that there are such shameless people in the world. They occupy other people's cities. How can they pay them back?
Face aggrieved.
"Lord, let's set up camp first, and write a message next time to let everyone in the world see Liu Bei's hypocrisy." Jiang Wan was really afraid that Liu Cong would get too angry and attack the city directly.
"Okay." Although Liu Cong was angry, he was not really mad. He certainly would not sacrifice the lives of his soldiers to satisfy his anger.
Ma Liang on the other side followed Cai Mao's fleet to Jiujiang, but did not stay and continued to take the boat directly to Wuxian County.
Jiujiang in Xunyang County was besieged by Zhou Yu, but it was defended tightly by Huo Jun without any flaws. Zhou Yu even sent someone to recruit Huo Jun, but was shot dead by Huo Jun with an arrow!
Zhang Yun's navy was suppressed by Jiangdong's navy. Facing Zhou Yu and Jiangdong's generals, Zhang Yun was a little unable to resist. Fortunately, Cai Mao led the army and rushed to support.
In the thirteenth year of Jian'an, on August 14, Sun Quan met with Ma Liang.
