Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

There are many other arrangements like this. Some people may not understand it at the beginning, but with the changes inside and outside Xiangyang, as long as they are not too stupid, they can feel that Liu Biao is dealing with or guarding against Li Yi.

Regarding Liu Biao's actions, the Cai family, the Kuai family, and some other people did not have any obvious reaction, because Liu Biao's methods were relatively mild and did not fundamentally harm their interests. If they objected, they would replace Li Yi and Liu Biao had just faced it head-on, which was obviously very stupid.

Therefore, the various forces in Xiangyang lived in peace, and Liu Biao found some comfort in this situation.

However, with Wang Can's arrival, Liu Biao's state of mind changed.

Liu Biao was very disappointed when he first learned that Li Yi did not come to Xiangyang in person, because he couldn't wait to prepare five hundred knives and axes for Li Yi and stage a Hongmen banquet.

On Wang Can's side, because of Cai Yong's beating and the various information provided by Guo Jia, Wang Can was very careful when he entered Xiangyang. He only dared to think about it in his heart, and never put it into practice. Actions and worship are also well-regulated, without any mistakes.

However, Liu Biao hated Wang Can when he was young, and always felt that Li Yi was belittling him, so he deliberately sent a young boy over. In addition, Wang Can's appearance was ordinary, so not only was he not elegant, he even With the appearance of a sharp-mouthed monkey cheek, the more Liu Biao looked at Wang Can, the more he disliked him, but Wang Can was right, and he couldn't make trouble casually.

However, what Liu Biao didn't expect was that he thought the matter was over, but when he was feeling itchy, Wang Can came to his door again.

"You said, Li Yi wants to recruit refugees again, and the old man needs to provide him with food and grass?"

Liu Biao said this sentence almost gritted his teeth. There is no way, Li Yi is really irritating. Before Li Yi gave up the right to appoint officials in Nanyang, he changed his supply of food and grass to Nanyang. Liu Biao felt that he was stable. I earned it, but I found out later that Li Yi was not a son of man, and used all the food he gave him in exchange for his own reputation of benevolence and righteousness. Even if some people couldn't eat enough, Li Yi would sigh and say that he came from Xiangyang There is too little food.

Is there anyone more shameless than this?

Now that Li Yi is gaining an inch, he is asking for food again. Needless to say, Li Yi's reputation is still his, so it's no wonder Liu Biao is not angry!

Wang Can knelt and sat opposite Liu Biao, his back was cool. He had been in Xiangyang for a few days. Although most officials in Xiangyang were quite friendly to him, Liu Biao always stared at him with murderous eyes, which made Wang Can feeling bad.

However, literati, especially Wen Qing, are a bit stubborn. Although Wang Can was afraid, he did not hesitate, and responded loudly: "That's exactly the case. When the Marquis of Xiang passed through Yuzhou, he found that many people had nowhere to live and no rice to feed their families. , I couldn't bear it in my heart, and I wanted to draw it in, but my own financial resources are limited, so I can only beg the envoy."

Liu Biao held the wine glass tightly with his right hand, and the veins on the back of his hand were bulging, as if he was about to smash Wang Can's head at any moment.

At this time, there were still several people sitting beside Liu Biao, namely the new appointment Liu Xian, Zhang Yun, and Kuai Liang who had returned to Jingzhou temporarily.

Ordinarily, Cai Mao should be called to discuss the matter at this time, but Liu Biao had a grudge in his heart, so naturally he didn't care about Cai Mao. As for Kuai Liang's appearance here, the main reason was that Liu Biao felt that the Kuai family could fight for it again.

Seeing that Liu Biao was angry on the surface, Liu Xian didn't want to start a dispute, so he hurriedly asked Liu Biao: "The Marquis Xiang wants to gather the refugees, but how many people are there?"

Wang Can thought about the news Guo Jia got, endured the toothache and said, "One hundred thousand!"

"boom"

Suddenly there was a sound, but it was Liu Biao who slapped the table in front of him.

Everyone's hearts froze, and Wang Can was about to say something, when Liu Biao said angrily, "Li Yi has recruited hundreds of thousands of refugees, what is he trying to do!"

Wang Can's heart fluttered, but his neck was swollen. He raised his head and said, "Mr. Xiang is an official of the Han Dynasty, so he should try his best to take care of the people of the Han Dynasty. This is what an official should do!"

After a pause, Wang Can added: "The Marquis Xiang said that if you are an official, if you can't benefit the common people, you might as well go back to seclusion as soon as possible and make way for the virtuous."

Liu Biao's eyes widened when he heard this. From what he heard, Wang Can was mocking him and telling him to give way to Li Yi.

Well, Wang Can did mean to satirize Liu Biao. After all, Liu Biao used all kinds of eyes to be hostile to him. Naturally, Wang Can has a temper, and he didn't make up those words, it was indeed Li Yi who said it.

Seeing that Liu Biao was about to go berserk, it was Zhang Yun's turn to persuade him this time, but Zhang Yun was very straightforward and said directly: "My lord, don't be angry, Yun thinks that the Marquis of Xiang must have done it on purpose."

When Zhang Yun opened his mouth, both Liu Xian and Kuai Liang subconsciously tilted their heads, and the next moment they heard Liu Biao angrily say, "Shut up!"

"Here"

Zhang Yun was shaken by the yelling, responded, and stepped aside aggrieved.

Immediately afterwards, Liu Biao pointed at Wang Can, his fingers trembling, and shouted, "Come on, give him to me!"

Although Liu Biao really wanted to tell someone to chop Wang Can off, he endured it, and changed his words: "Shoot him out of Xiangyang!"

Kuai Liang, Liu Xian, and Zhang Yun all changed their expressions, but Liu Biao scolded Zhang Yun, how could they speak at this time?

However, Liu Biao, who was busy getting angry, didn't notice that there was no panic in Wang Can's eyes. Instead, he was faintly excited. Not only was he not afraid, but he yelled, "Your envoy, how could you be like this!"

Liu Biao was no longer interested in talking to Wang Can. With a flick of his sleeves, two warriors immediately entered the room, holding Wang Can on one left and one on the right, and carried him out like a chicken.

However, although Wang Can was taken out, several people in the room could hear Wang Can's howling from outside:

"You may disregard Xianghou, but you must not disregard the people!"

"My lord! Please give Nanyang some food for the sake of the common people. For the sake of the common people, Marquis Xiang has already used all his private money to buy food!"

"Emissary"

Hearing Wang Can's call, Liu Biao's face turned red with anger, until the voice gradually disappeared, then he pointed to the door and said angrily: "Such a gentleman who sweeps the floor is also the son of the Wang family?"

Liu Biao looked at the people around him, hoping that they would agree with him, but Liu Biao was disappointed to find that not only Kuai Liang, but even Liu Xian and Zhang Yun did not speak.

Liu Biao was so angry that his head hurt, he asked without thinking, "Why don't you say anything!"

"Ugh."

Liu Xian sighed lightly and said, "My lord, I lost my composure."

Chapter 356 Nephew

Hearing this, the angry expression on Liu Biao's face froze immediately, and after two or three changes, he took a step back, sat down on the seat, closed his eyes and said sadly: "Although the old man has not done much in his life, he has also experienced hardships and experiences. , but now he loses his sense of proportion in front of a child, haha, ridiculous, ridiculous."

Liu Biao is now in his 50s, and Wang Can is only sixteen, so it is not too much for Liu Biao to say that Wang Can is a child.

Moreover, Liu Biao can be praised by others, and his character, self-cultivation, and bearing account for a large proportion. Even if he doesn't like people he doesn't like, Liu Biao can still give him the most basic respect even if he doesn't use it. As for the younger generation, except for his own son , is more tolerant.

For Liu Biao, being angry with Wang Can's two words just now was completely unimaginable in the past.

Liu Biao sighed naturally when he thought of his many years of nourishing qi, but after laughing at himself, Liu Biao found that there was no movement around him again. When he looked up, he saw Liu Xian, Zhang Yun, Kuai Liang, All three of them looked at their noses, noses and hearts, like wood carvings.

Seeing the appearance of his subordinates, Liu Biao couldn't help feeling angry again, but this time he suppressed it and said in a calm tone as much as possible: "Li Yi seems to be loyal, but in fact he has evil intentions for me in Jingzhou. , the old man has been patient before, but Zhu Zi has made an inch of it, and he came to Xiangyang to ask for money and food, it is too deceitful!"

Liu Biao couldn't help but become a little ferocious again. He took a few deep breaths, calmed down again, and said in a deep voice, "You all are the cornerstones of Jingzhou, how do you think you should deal with it at this time?"

The three were silent for a while.

Kuai Liang had something in his heart, but he didn't want to say it.

Although Liu Xian has some resourcefulness, it is also limited. In the current situation, he feels that there is nothing good to do except exhaustion.

Zhang Yun had something to say in his heart, but recently Liu Biao began to become unresponsive. Although he was Liu Biao's nephew, he was very trusted by Liu Biao, but he was reprimanded at every turn, and he was afraid to speak up.

Seeing that no one made a sound, Liu Biao felt a burst of sadness in his heart.

The people around me now are either born with two minds or mediocre people, they are not useful at all.

This situation made Liu Biao miss Kuai Yue more and more. He regretted it very much. There is no one who can help with planning.

Liu Biao turned his eyes around a few times, and finally landed on Kuai Liang. He stared at Kuai Liang for a moment, then asked slowly and softly, "Zirou, please teach me."
