"Husband, I am here today because I have something to discuss with you."
Hearing Cai Yu's words, Liu Biao was startled, then smiled and said,
"Madam, please sit down first. If you have anything to say, just say it directly."
He supported Cai Yu and walked towards the table.
At this moment, Liu Biao suddenly noticed that Cai Yu was limping when he walked.
"What's wrong, ma'am? You seem to have difficulty moving?"
"Ah, yesterday I went boating outside the city and accidentally fell."
Cai Yu said a little unnaturally.
Of course she couldn't tell Liu Biao. This was because Yang Ling was too strong. He beat her to the point of begging for mercy yesterday, right?
"Oh I got it."
Liu Biao didn't take it to heart at all, and he didn't notice that his wife looked more beautiful than before.
"I hope...husband will not help Zhang Xiu."
Cai Yu reported his intention.
Liu Biao was slightly startled and couldn't help but said,
"Why?"
He didn't expect that Cai Yu came to him today to discuss this matter.
"Husband, do you still remember the last time you entertained Zhang Xiu?"
"of course I remember."
Liu Biao nodded.
The last time he and Zhang Xiu reconciled, they held a banquet and invited Zhang Xiu to Xiangyang City.
At that time, Mrs. Cai also attended the banquet and accompanied Zhang Xiu's aunt.
"Zhang Xiu kept staring at me that night, his eyes were very greedy!"
Liu Biao frowned slightly, then relaxed his brows and said with a smile,
"Madam is as beautiful as a flower. That Zhang Xiu is young, so it's normal for her to be a little rude. I'm afraid Madam may have misunderstood her?"
"If that's the case, then that's it. The key...the key..."
Cai Yu looked like he was hesitating to speak.
"What happened to the key?"
Liu Biao couldn't help but ask.
"I heard someone say that after Zhang Xiu got drunk in Wancheng, he once said to the people around him that he would definitely play with me when he takes Jingzhou in the future..."
Cai Yu said with a sad and angry look,
"My husband treats Zhang Xiu so kindly, but he is plotting to take me to Jingzhou. With such ambition, why do you want to keep him?"
Cai Yu is a smart woman.
She knew that if she spoke for Yang Ling, Liu Biao would be suspicious of her, and it would be more likely that her relationship with Yang Ling would be noticed.
So she came up with a plan and started throwing dirty water at Zhang Xiu.
Sure enough, Liu Biao became furious after hearing this.
"This Zhang Xiu is really ungrateful!"
Of course he would not doubt Cai Yu.
After all, Cai Yu has no grudges against Zhang Xiu and has no motive to frame Zhang Xiu!
"Husband, you have to make the decision for me..."
Cai Yu cried out sadly, but her heart was filled with joy.
After this matter is done, how should Yang Lang thank me? How many more shots?
"Don't worry, ma'am, I know what to do!"
Liu Biao comforted Cai Yu and asked the maids to send her back.
After Cai Yu left, Liu Biao took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart.
He could tolerate other things, but he couldn't bear Zhang Xiu peeking at his wife and the entire Jingzhou!
"Come here! Go and invite Mr. Chen Jinnan!"
Liu Biao ordered in a deep voice.
…
Not long after, Yang Ling was invited to Liu Biao's study.
"I've met Zhou Mu."
He bowed his hands to Liu Biao.
"After thinking about what you proposed last time, I think it is still feasible."
Liu's face was as heavy as water and he said slowly.
Yang Ling's heart moved. It seemed that Cai Yu's pillow style had an effect.
Hehe, I have to love her a lot when I look back!
"Zhou Mu really understands justice! Shameless people like Zhang Xiu must be eliminated!"
Yang Ling spoke righteously.
"So after Zhang Xiu is wiped out, what should be done with the Wancheng area?"
Liu Biao asked calmly.
What a cunning old fox. He not only wants to get rid of Zhang Xiu, but also wants to swallow Wancheng into his belly!
But it's no wonder that Wancheng is not only the gateway to Xudu, but also the gateway to Xiangyang.
After passing Wancheng, there is a plain, and the army can go all the way south to Xiangyang City.
"Wancheng originally belonged to Jingzhou and should be handed over to the state's pastoral management."
Yang Ling smiled.
No matter what, just make a promise first. Anyway, it is Chen Jinnan who promises you today, not me, Yang Ling.
When Zhang Xiu is eliminated in the future and Wancheng is held in his hands, will Liu Biao be able to attack him?
"That's good!"
Liu Biao relaxed his brows and showed a smile.
"Then let's join forces and destroy Zhang Xiu!"
…
After Yang Ling successfully persuaded Liu Biao, he left in no hurry.
After all, his trip to Jingzhou was not just about this.
This day.
He came to the villa outside the city again and went boating on the lake with Cai Yu.
When the flower boat stopped rocking, Cai Yu leaned in Yang Ling's arms with a satisfied look on her face.
"Yu'er, is my gratitude sincere?"
Yang Ling said with a wicked smile.
"Yang Lang, you are good or bad."
Cai Yu shyly beat his chest.
The two of them laughed for a while, and Yang Ling suddenly remembered the purpose of his visit today and said,
"Yu'er, do you know Zhuge Liang?"
"Are you talking about Zhuge Kongming?"
"Yes, it is this person."
"He is the fiancé of my niece Yueying, and he is currently farming in Longzhong."
When Cai Yu talked about Zhuge Liang, he looked disapproving.
"He's just a nerd. How do you know this person?"
"This person is smart and resourceful, but he is not what you said, Yu'er."
Yang Ling shook his head and made some calculations in his mind.
Since Zhuge Liang is in Longzhong, he must go there no matter what!
"You want to recruit him?"
Cai Yu asked.
"Yes, that's what I meant."
"Longzhong is not far from here. If you want to see him, I can have someone take you there."
"So good!"
Yang Ling smiled and nodded.
…
The land of Jingzhou has developed waterways, and a small river happens to flow through the place where Zhuge Liang lives.
So Yang Ling took Cao Ang, Gan Ning, and a group of soldiers by boat.
After agreeing to join forces to deal with Zhang Xiu, Liu Biao became very affectionate towards Yang Ling.
In order to ensure Yang Ling's safety in Xiangyang, he specially dispatched a team of people to protect him.
Yang Ling became good friends with Gan Ning, so he took the initiative to let Gan Ning lead the team.
Following the guidance of the guide sent by Cai Yu, Yang Ling and his party soon arrived at several thatched cottages.
The environment of the thatched cottage is fresh and elegant, and there are several bookboys reading books in the courtyard.
When they saw Yang Ling and others arriving, they were not afraid. Instead, they stepped forward and took the initiative to salute,
"I wonder what these military lords are doing here?"
"This is Chen Jinnan, the envoy sent by the general. I have something to see your husband."
Yang Ling replied,
"I hope you can report it."
Several bookboys looked at each other, then nodded and said,
"Just wait for now."
After saying that, one of them turned around and ran behind him.
Inside the thatched cottage.
A young scholar with a delicate face was looking at the bamboo slip in his hand in ecstasy.
Yes, he is the famous Zhuge Liang in the future!
At this moment, the book boy ran in,
"Sir, sir!"
