Mrs. Cai hurriedly asked: "Brother, what do you say?"
Cai Mao looked at Mrs. Cai, with a sinister smile on his face and said: "If Liu Biao dies and that bastard Liu Cong takes over the throne, he marries my daughter, and secretly dotes on you in the backyard. Although the position of the Lord of Jingzhou, It’s that bastard, but with his useless abilities, isn’t Jingzhou still under our control?”
Mrs. Cai trembled and shook her head hurriedly: "Little sister, don't dare to take action! There are people who want to kill the old man everywhere in the general's mansion now. If little sister takes action, once discovered, she will die miserably!"
Cai Hao laughed out loud and said, "What are you thinking? Only two people can do this kind of thing. If anyone else does it, it may reveal the truth."
Mrs. Cai breathed a sigh of relief and then continued to ask: "Which two people?"
Cai Hao was obviously in a good mood now. While eating breakfast, he said: "Is it necessary to ask? Of course they are close relatives."
Mrs. Cai: ".I feel like he doesn't have the guts."
Cai Hao sneered and said, "You go back later and ask someone to find that bastard and tell him."
"You can promise him."
"I could even marry my daughter to him."
"It can also make him achieve what he wants."
"However, he also has to prove something to us."
Mrs. Cai still wanted to ask, but Cai Hao waved her hand and said, "We'll talk about it later."
Mrs. Cai hummed.
After Cai Mao finished eating, he asked Mrs. Cai to stay at home, and he rode out.
Not long after, he came back, handed a small bottle to Mrs. Cai and said, "Give this to that bastard, and let him find an opportunity to pour it into Liu Biao's wine or food."
Mrs. Cai asked: "What is this?"
Cai Mao smiled and said, "Kuai Yue secretly gave Kuai Liang something to eat."
Seeing Mrs. Cai's sudden nervousness, Cai Mao said: "You don't need to worry. This poison is chronic and will not kill you all at once. Therefore, after taking it for a day or two, people will not look much different from normal people."
"Only after strenuous exertion does the body slowly collapse and become terminally ill within a few days."
"After Kuai Liang was drugged by Kuai Yue, he never knew about it."
"It wasn't until I vomited blood and called the medical staff that I realized something was wrong with my body."
"However, everyone in the Kuai family has been replaced by Kuai Yue."
"Now, Kuai Liang is lying at home waiting to die."
"The same goes for that bitch Liu Biao."
"Of course, you tell that bastard Liu Cong. If he doesn't dare, don't fantasize about you, let alone the position of Jingzhou Shepherd."
"On the contrary, if he dares to leak it, I will probably cut off my own arm. However, from now on, I will let others support Liu Qi as the crown prince!"
Mrs. Cai took the bottle, a little scared.
But she still nodded.
The current situation is full of danger for the Cai family and themselves.
It would be better for Liu Biao, a dead old man, to die early.
After staying at Cai's house for a while, Mrs. Cai rushed back with the bottle.
At this time, Liu Cong was still having fun at home with his maid.
Even in front of Lu Yi, Nangong Yan and the servants, he did not shy away from kissing the maid.
Around midnight in the afternoon, Liu Cong was lying on the ground, holding a maid in his left and right arms, sleeping soundly.
Lu Yi and Nangong Yan were practicing martial arts in the small courtyard.
But a rather beautiful maid appeared and said, "Is the second young master here? I have sent him something on the order of my wife, and I have something to say."
Lu Yi said hurriedly: "I'm going to wake him up now."
Lu Yi walked into the house and woke Liu Cong up.
Liu Cong was still in a daze.
After hearing what Lu Yi said that Mrs. Cai had sent a maid, he woke up and walked out lazily.
When the maid saw Liu Cong coming out, she turned away Lu Yi, Nangong Yan and other people nearby. She handed a bottle to Liu Cong and said, "My wife asked me to give this to you."
After taking a look around to make sure there was no one around, the maid whispered: "Put it quietly in Jingzhou Mu's wine or food."
"My wife said that this is the only way for the second young master to prove his true feelings to her."
"If the Second Young Master does it, all your wishes will come true."
"Otherwise, the eldest son will soon be promoted to Crown Prince."
"Second Young Master, think it over carefully."
After saying that, he no longer cared whether Liu Cong understood or not, turned around and left.
Liu Cong watched the maid leave, then opened the bottle and looked inside.
It's a small bottle of white powder.
There is an indescribable taste.
Very light, though.
Liu Cong called Lu Yi over with the bottle and said, "Just now, Mrs. Cai asked the maid to give this to me, saying that she would secretly put it into my father's wine or food to prove her feelings to her."
"Otherwise, that bastard Liu Qi will soon be promoted to Crown Prince."
"What do these words mean? Why don't I understand them?"
Lu Yi: "."
While taking the bottle from Liu Cong and taking a look at the powder inside, Lu Yi looked at Liu Cong and said with a strange expression: "It means you can either use this medicine to poison your father, and she and the Cai family will help you." Inherit the position of Jingzhou Mu; or, she and the Cai family help your eldest brother become the heir apparent, and you completely give up hope."
Liu Cong's eyes narrowed suddenly, and his breathing became a little rapid. He looked at the bottle in Lu Yi's hand with a horrified look on his face and said, "Poison, poison? Is this poison? Mr. Cai is harming me!"
Lu Yi frowned and said to Liu Cong: "Second Young Master, you don't have to do it. However, without the help of Mrs. Cai and the Cai family, to be honest, there is no possibility for you to become the heir apparent, let alone take over the position of Jingzhou Mu. .”
Liu Cong was a little at a loss and said: "If, if I hand over this poison to my father, then wouldn't the Cai family and the Cai family be doomed? Then have I made a great contribution? Father, is it possible for my father to make me his heir apparent? ?”
Lu Yi shook his head and said solemnly: "The Cai family is one of the four powerful families in Jingzhou."
"If you really hand over this poison, your father will probably not be able to deal with the Cai family."
"If Mrs. Cai blows some more wind at this time, and Cai Mao suffers some more physical pain, this incident will end like this."
"But, Second Young Master, your situation will not be easy in the future."
"First of all, the Cai family will definitely bear in mind their hatred for your betrayal and officially support the eldest son from now on."
"The eldest son already has famous people to help him, but now that the Cai family is included, the position of the heir apparent is no longer in doubt."
"In the future, once Jingzhou Mu dies and the eldest son takes the throne, I am afraid that the Cai family will take revenge on the second son."
"Second Young Master, do you have the confidence to fight against Cai Hao?"
Liu Cong swallowed with dull eyes.
Lu Yi continued: "Furthermore, if you hand in the poison and your father asks you why the Cai family gave you the poison to kill him, how would you answer?"
"No matter how you answer, you can't erase the fact that the second young master has been in contact with the Cai family."
"Why are you contacting the Cai family? Everyone knows it."
"By then, your father will probably be extremely disappointed in you."
"Not only can't I give you the title of Crown Prince, I'm afraid I'll also punish you heavily."
"For example, lifelong confinement."
Lu Yi's words were like needle pricks, piercing Liu Cong's heart.
Liu Cong was so frightened that his body trembled.
In other words, he can only poison his father?
How dare he take action!
Seeing this, Lu Yi said: "Second Young Master, I can't bear to let the child trap the wolf."
"In the struggle for power, kind people can only become objects of destruction."
"If you want Mrs. Cai and the post of Jingzhou Mu, your life will be complete and happy from now on; you still have to protect your father's life, but you will be imprisoned for life from now on and will never be able to get ahead, let alone be able to be as wanton with the maid as you are now. .”
After a pause, Lu Yi said: "Second Young Master, think carefully."
"Now that Mrs. Cai has a reply, my mission to stay here has been completed."
"Second Young Master, I'm leaving."
After saying that, he bowed and left with Nangong Yan.
The two of them walked out of the back door of the General's Mansion.
Nangong Yancai said to Lu Yi: "These two young masters are simply trash among trash. I'm afraid I won't be able to do it."
Lu Yi smiled and said, "It's hard to say."
“When people are cornered, they will do unimaginable things.”
"Although Liu Cong is stupid, he is used to having to stretch out his hands for food and open his mouth for clothes."
"He can't stand it if he is left with nothing or even imprisoned for the rest of his life."
"I bet he will do it."
Lu Yi lamented: "It's hard to guard against a domestic thief even if you have everything to guard against. This Liu Biao never thought that his glorious life would eventually be ruined in the hands of his son."
"This is a lesson."
"I finally understand the reason why the ancients established elders rather than virtuous people."
"If Xueer gives birth to such a stupid son for me, I will drown him as soon as he comes out!"
Nangong Yan: "It's not easy to do this."
Lu Yi nodded and said, "Indeed."
Let’s talk about it.
But the fact is that tiger poison cannot eat its seeds.
No matter how stupid and stupid a father is, it is difficult for a father to kill his children.
Let's talk about Liu Biao, how could he not know Liu Cong's abilities?
But if you know it, what can you do?
Still not allowed to keep it?
However, he will not follow in Liu Biao's footsteps.
Once Xueer gives birth to a son, she will establish the title of heir apparent, saving the other children from fighting over that position.
If you really give birth to a stupid son, you can establish a new one in advance while you are still young.
Never be sloppy.
Otherwise, if you delay it until you are exhausted, you will have many problems.
Lu Yi and Nangong Yan rushed to their residence.
Unexpectedly, he saw Liu Qi and Zhuge Liang talking at the door.
The two were talking and laughing.
Behind the two people, stood several guards.
Zhuge Liang saw Lu Yi coming back and nodded to him.
When Liu Qi saw this, he saluted Lu Yi curiously and said, "Liu Qi has met this gentleman!"
Lu Yi hurriedly returned the salute and said: "Buyi Qiaoze, I have met the eldest son!"
Liu Qi asked Lu Yi: "Who are Mr. Qiao and Kong Ming——"
Zhuge Liang looked at Lu Yi.
Lu Yi pointed to the shop and said: "I am the young owner of this shop. Kong Ming, I admire him, so I invited him to come and play together for a few days."
"There are rumors in the world that if you get one of the crouching dragons and phoenixes, you will conquer the world."
"I sincerely admire such a great talent."
"Now that I have the opportunity to come to Xiangyang, how can I not meet him?"
Liu Qi suddenly said: "That's it!"
Lu Yi pointed to the inside of the shop and said, "Why don't the eldest son and Kong Ming go inside and chat?"
Liu Qi then said: "Forget it today, it's getting late. I'll come visit you another day when I'm free."
After saying that, he said to Zhuge Liang: "Kong Ming, I'll come back another day."
Zhuge Liang said goodbye: "Master, go slowly."
Liu Qi saluted Zhuge Liang and Lu Yi respectively, and left on horseback with several guards.
