"Uh?" Kuai Yue was stunned when he heard the sound, secretly slandered Liu Biao's hypocrite, and asked with knowledge that the secret letter was in your hands. Can't you see whether Sun Ce died or not?

However, since Liu Biao asked, Kuai Yue could not help but answer: "From the secret letter sent back in detail, Sun Ce was shot in the cheek by a sharp arrow, and was seriously injured. I believe, although he did not die on the spot, he will not be long."

In fact, he wanted to say that Sun Ce was probably dead, but he swallowed it back when he said something. In terms of caution, it was better to have less than more things. Kuai Yue did not say his own inference after all, so he would be fine if he died. If Sun Ce died, he would be fine. If he was not dead, it would be difficult to guarantee that Liu Biao would not blame him in the future. Therefore, he could not speak too much and leave some room for anything. This would be a wise move.

"So that's what Sun Ce's son is dead?" Sure enough, Liu Biao followed Kuai Yue's thoughts and said what he deliberately avoided.

"Okay, okay, very good! Once the concubine's son dies, I will be free of worries. Hahaha!" After cheering, Liu Biao was overjoyed and laughed happily.

However, his weak body could not resist such laughter. As soon as he laughed twice, he coughed violently: "Cough, cough cough cough!" After a while of coughing, the lines on Liu Biao's thin face surged, showing his true age. At first glance, it seemed that he was a little uncomfortable in his bowel movement and his face was flushed.

After finally stopping coughing, Liu Biao noticed that the Kuai brothers in the hall looked at him with a serious expression. He immediately smiled embarrassedly and waved his hand to indicate that he was fine, just a moment of excitement. The Kuai brothers immediately understood and smiled relievedly. Liu Xian, who was sitting beside him, also echoed and smiled.

Unexpectedly, Liu Xian's smile fell into Liu Biao's eyes, but it made Liu's face darker, and his face suddenly became gloomy. He squinted his eyes and stared at Liu Xian coldly, his eyes flashing with a dark and cold light. At this moment, Liu Biao suddenly remembered the scene he had just been in the inner hall, and then connected it with the scene that was difficult to speak in the dormitory before, which made Liu Biao very angry, and a strong murderous aura flashed in his eyes.

In fact, Liu Biao has clearly felt that he was becoming increasingly incompetent in sexual intercourse in recent years. Faced with Cai's increasingly plump and convex body, and her provocative style, Liu Biao could not withstand the temptation at all. He often lost his mind, and for this reason he was very excited every day, but when he was in the battle, he was unable to do so, and he felt a little willing to kill the enemy and was unable to turn the world back. Every time he was done, he was stubborn, which made Cai entangled him endlessly and dissatisfied with his desires, which made him feel very distressed, but he was full of guilt towards Cai. Therefore, he had to make up for it in other aspects and try his best to meet her requirements.

It is precisely because Liu Biao was troubled by this unspeakable hidden for a long time that he was particularly sensitive in some aspects, especially incapable of seeing a young and strong handsome man in his backyard. Even his son was no exception. For this reason, he replaced or cleared all the young and strong entourages in the backyard, leaving only a few loyal old servants and maids, and decided not to allow other men to appear in the backyard, for fear that anyone would come into contact with Cai on his back. Although he knew that no one dared to pay attention to Cai, he still couldn't help thinking about this. Therefore, in order to prevent problems, the backyard became a forbidden place for men other than him. Cai was his forbidden body. No one except him could contact Cai. Not only could he look at her more, but he could not even get close to her.

This hidden secret was vaguely noticed by the closest people around Liu Biao. Therefore, the Kuai brothers came to the prefecture at night, but did not go to the backyard to ask for Liu Biao in person. Instead, they instigated Liu Xian, the chief clerk who had disagreements with their brothers, to report. However, Liu Xian knew that it was inappropriate to go to the backyard late at night, but because of his face, the Kuai brothers were tempted, which made him enter the backyard without hesitation.

This led to a scene that happened at the door of the inner hall. Liu Biao saw the chief clerk Liu Xian standing in the inner hall with his own eyes, and then he thought that his possible discovery of his own was Liu Xian, so he was very annoyed by Liu Xian and held a grudge against him.

Just now, Liu Biao's mind was full of Sun Ce's assassination, and he temporarily put this matter behind his mind. At this moment, he felt particularly harsh when he heard Liu Xian's laughter, so that the things that had just been left behind naturally came to his mind. Therefore, Liu Xian's smile at Liu Biao's eyes were ridiculed by him, mocking him for being incompetent, and he rushed on Cai, and he sprayed him before he could tossed a few times. He was overestimating his ability, and he wanted to eat tender grass.

At this point, Liu Biao's anger suddenly rose, with murderous aura in his eyes overflowing, and his cold and sharp eyes seemed to want to tear Liu Xian into pieces and break into pieces to relieve his hatred. However, Liu Biao is good at concealing his emotions, and his emotions are not reflected in his expression. At this moment, even though he has murderous intentions towards Liu Xian, he looks like a squinting thought on the surface, giving people a profound and unpredictable feeling, and he cannot guess his thoughts at all.

But this is limited to Liu Xian, or he is still in the dark. The Kuai brothers who have been following Liu Biao for a long time noticed the strange color in Liu Biao's eyes at the first time, and then became alert. After a little thought, it is not difficult to guess the reason. The Kuai brothers' thoughts are just a conspiracy. Therefore, their brothers' smiles are very bright at this moment, and when they fall into Liu Biao's eyes, they smile sincerely, which is completely opposite to Liu Xian's "sneering smile".

Fortunately, Liu Biao is extremely particular in his work. The more secret things are hidden, the deeper they hide, the more they do not leave any traces and will never miss them. He will never doubt them. He will not do things that are punished without teaching, nor will he deal with Liu Xian at will on false charges. He either endures and does nothing. If he wants to do it, he must do it openly and silently achieve the results he wants, and will not be criticized by others.

As a person in his seventies, Liu Biao pays more attention to face than anyone else. He knows the truth that geese leave their voices and people leave their names behind. He will never do stupid things that will ruin their reputations for a lifetime. Therefore, before there is no sufficient reason to deal with Liu Xian, he will not make any noise, nor will he even show any strangeness, nor will he punish Liu Xian at will.

After pondering for a while, Liu Biao asked the Kuai brothers quietly: "As soon as Sun Ce dies, Jiangdong will be in chaos. How should we deal with it at that time?"

The Kuai brothers seemed to have expected Liu Biao to have this question, and Kuai Liang, who had not spoken just now, replied without hesitation: "Don't worry, lord, I have already made a countermeasure to this. Now Sun Ce is critically ill. The situation in Jiangdong is bound to be turbulent and unstable, and people's hearts are fluctuating. However, it is precisely because the situation is unstable that the generals of Jiangdong will inevitably strengthen their troops to garrison the defense line along the river. They will gather heavy troops and always beware of our Jingzhou army's sneak attack on the river.

In view of this, our troops in Jingzhou should not be moved lightly at present, especially the navy cannot move without any movement. It is best to maintain the existing forces and keep the troops still; otherwise, a slight abnormal movement of our army will inevitably arouse the alert of the Jiangdong army, which will force them to quickly stabilize the situation and point the edge at our Jingzhou. In other words, even if we send troops to attack Jiangdong immediately, it will be difficult to make substantial progress, and it will even indirectly help the Sun clan stabilize the situation, make them unite and resist our Jingzhou army. If this is true, it will be a loss for us and missed a great opportunity to seize Jiangdong in one fell swoop. Therefore, sending troops to advance Jiangdong is a strategy for the subordinates to do so. What the wise do not do."

Liu Biao nodded thoughtfully and thought, "What Zirou said is not without reason. In your opinion, after Sun Ce died, who will be the lieutenant general of the Sun clan lead Jiangdong?" (Kuai Liang, whose courtesy name is Zirou, was from Zhonglu, Nanjun. He set up a political direction for Liu Biao to appease Jingchu. He assisted him in his career and was praised by Liu Biao as the "Yong Ji's theory". He was a hero of Liu Biao's entry into Jingzhou and the first chief clerk under Liu Biao's account.)

After hearing this, Kuai Liang knew that Liu Biao actually wanted to say, "Who in the Sun clan leads Jiangdong is the most beneficial to our Jingzhou." It was just that his identity as a relative of the Han Dynasty and the face of the lord of the state were very obscure and evasive. However, Kuai Liang followed Liu Biao for many years, knew his nature well, and knew that Liu Biao had missed an opportunity to seize Jiangdong, so he regretted it afterwards. This time, he learned a lesson and was eager to seize Jiangdong, and he would never miss the opportunity again. This was the second opportunity to seize Jiangdong before Liu Ping.

The last chance dates back to when Sun Jian was ambushed by Huang Zu. Sun Jian was dead and the situation in Jiangdong was in chaos. Kuai Liang once offered advice to Liu Biao, taking advantage of the situation to eliminate the remaining forces under Sun Jian's tent, and then rushed south to seize Jiangdong. However, Liu Biao had no intention of fighting for hegemony. He was determined to be in charge of Jingzhou, but he had no intention of siege to attack the city and capture the territory, so he decided to refute Kuai Liang's advice. However, with the rapid changes in the world situation and the severe situation facing Jingzhou, Liu Biao finally stopped being self-consistent. Realizing the importance of expanding the territory and strengthening his strength, he turned his attention to Jiangdong and wanted to capture Jiangdong day and night. However, Sun Ce of Jiangdong was brave and good at fighting, and his Jiangdong army became more and more brave and had good combat power. As a result, Liu Biao sent troops to fight with the Jiangdong army several times, all of which were defeated, and he suffered losses.

Today, every time Kuai Liang thinks of this, he can't help but shake his head and sigh, and is very upset. Fortunately, the opportunity that has been waiting for many years has finally come again. This time, unlike in the past, Liu Biao has a clear attitude and is extremely urgent to seize Jiangdong. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is determined. In this regard, Kuai Liang is happy to see it and is willing to give advice to help Liu Biao succeed.

"Sun Ce died young, his son was only five years old, and he was difficult to convince the public. Therefore, the only one who could lead Jiangdong was his four younger brothers. The eldest brother Sun Yi, the second brother Sun Quan, the third brother Sun Kuang and the youngest brother Sun Lang. The best candidates were Sun Yi and Sun Quan. Sun Yi was fierce and brave, with a similar personality to Sun Ce. He was highly praised by Jiangdong's civil and military officials. However, Sun Quan was forcibly recruited by General Li Li two years ago and went to Chang'an to serve, but has not returned yet. Therefore, if nothing unexpected happens, Sun Yi is the best candidate to lead Jiangdong after Sun Ce."

Speaking of this, Kuai Liang paused, looked at Liu Biao's face, and then said, "Since Sun Yi is quite like his brother Sun Ce, we sent to Jiangdong, Xiao Zuo and assassin, who are sent to Jiangdong, may as well transfer the target, use the same tricks again, transfer all the previous preparations to Sun Yi, so that he can enter the footsteps of Sun Ce and die again. At the same time, spread rumors and push Sun Ce's son to the throne, which will be the most beneficial to our Jingzhou. This is my foolish opinion, I wonder what the lord's opinion is."

After hearing this, Liu Biao laughed and said, "What Zirou said is exactly what I want, so I can implement it accordingly. However, Sun Ce has been in a new mourning, and I should send an envoy to pay my respects to you. Well, I have worked hard for the chief clerk and set off after dawn. Go and go back early." After saying that, before Liu Xian answered, Liu Biao waved his hand to signal the Kuai brothers to go back to rest, so he got up and left the main hall and walked towards the backyard.

What should come finally came, and the chief clerk Liu Xian was ordered to go to Jiangdong to pay his respects.

When Sun Jian was shot and killed, the Jiangdong envoy came to Jingzhou to pay condolences. Liu Biao believed Kuai Liang's advice and ordered all the Jiangdong envoys to behead them. Since then, although there is only a river between Jingzhou and Jiangdong, there is little precedent for sending envoys to negotiate with each other, and almost cut off contact. This time, Liu Biao set a precedent and sent envoys to pay condolences. It is a benevolent act, but I wonder if Liu Xian can come back alive?
