Liu Bei's exciting remarks moved Tao Qian incomparably.

Strike while the iron is hot and ask for benefits, Liu Bei is already perfect, and at this time he was embarrassed and said:

"But at present, there is a shortage of food, grass, soldiers and horses, even if you have the heart to protect Xuzhou, you can't do anything!"

Liu Bei's words just happened to talk about Tao Qian's heart, and his decision to hand over Xuzhou to Liu Bei was a little heavier.

"Xuande can have this heart, it is really a blessing for the people of Xuzhou." Tao Qian praised him, and then said slowly:

"Humility is incompetent, since he is in charge of Xuzhou, he can't calm the hearts of the people inside, and he can't resist the enemy outside, and now he can only give Xuzhou to Xuande, and he has sought to protect the people of Xuzhou."

What the!

Xuzhou has a population of nearly one million, and this Tao Qian wants to give it to me for nothing.

No way, I'm sure he's tempting me, and if he agrees, I'm afraid that my current home will be lost.

Liu Bei is worthy of being the first to endure, from the shock at the beginning to the doubt, and then to the expressionless face now, it is only a short moment.

"Plop!"

Liu Bei suddenly knelt down and said: "If Taozhou Mu doesn't believe Bei, Bei will lead the troops away, why do you still say such things?"

Since he wants to be tempted, Liu Bei will make a plan, and he is ready to retreat into advance, forcing Tao Qian to reveal his true intentions.

Hearing that Liu Bei was leaving, Tao Qian hurriedly helped him up in fright and said, "Xuande, why is this, Qian really wants to hand over Xuzhou to you." ”

"Don't say this again, or you're going to leave." After Liu Bei finished speaking, he was about to leave.

Seeing this, Tao Qian hurriedly grabbed Liu Bei and said: "Okay, don't say it, don't say it, Xuande will live here for a few days, and the old man is just going to set up a banquet to entertain those who have made meritorious contributions in this battle." ”

Seeing Tao Qian's tone change, Liu Bei felt as if he had lost something, but there was no expression on his face. "Then there is Master Laozhou."

After this temptation, Tao Qian's heart was even more determined, so he asked his subordinates to take Liu Bei to the guest room.

It seems that this Liu Bei is indeed benevolent and righteous, and handing over Xuzhou to him may be the best choice.

Since this is the case, then a good person will do it to the end, take advantage of this time to set up a banquet, invite the Xuzhou family, pave the way for him, and increase some kindness, so that the Tao family will have a smoother road in the future.

Tao Qian made a good decision, so he asked people to go and inform all the families in the city, so that they could come to the mansion for a banquet tonight.

And Liu Bei returned to his residence with his subordinates, and his heart couldn't be calm for a long time, and his mind was full of Xuzhou.

Does this Tao Qian really want to give up Xuzhou, or is it just a temptation

Wrong!

It's possible that he really wants to give up, otherwise why would he say it, is there anything he can deceive now.

If Xuzhou is in his hands, wouldn't he be able to squeeze into the ranks of the princes and compete with them.

If there really is a day, I, Liu Bei, must let those who look down on me surrender and tremble under my feet.

"Li Huiyi, one day, Bei will make you kneel down and beg for mercy!" Liu Bei's face showed coldness, and he whispered to himself.

After a moment of smugness in his heart, Liu Bei suddenly got up and went out, came to the street and walked around, making sure that no one was following, and then found a common person and asked him to lead the way to Chen's mansion.

Coming to the outside of Chen's mansion and giving a few rewards to the people who led the way, Liu Bei strode towards the servants guarding the door. "Xiapi ordered Liu Bei to ask to see him, and he bothered to go and inform him."

The subordinates had long noticed Liu Bei's arrival, and seeing him so polite at this time, they hurriedly saluted and said, "Please wait for a while, and the little one will go and inform him." ”

Seeing the next person hurrying forward, Liu Bei stood at the door and waited quietly.

It didn't take long for Chen Qi to lead Chen Deng to hurry over, after all, Liu Bei is about to be the lord of Xuzhou, and he will also be the object of cooperation in the future, and Er Chen will not be snub for no reason.

"The old man has seen the next order."

"Yuan Long has seen Ming Gong."

"Xuande has seen Old Chen and Mr. Yuanlong."

The three of them said politely, and Chen Qi, as the master, beckoned Liu Bei to the guest hall.

The three of them sat down separately, and Chen Deng on the right couldn't wait to say: "Ming Gong knows that Xuzhou is about to undergo great changes."

Well

Chen Deng knew that Tao Qian had given way, and it seemed that he had come to the right place this time.

Liu Bei was overjoyed in his heart, and replied expressionlessly: "Bei is not clear, but today Taozhou Mu suddenly wanted to hand over Xuzhou to Bei, but Bei has already refused." ”

"Alas! How could Ming Gong refuse! Chen Deng looked sorry at the time, then shook his head and said: "If Ming Gong wins Xuzhou, it will be like a dragon coming out of the shallows and soaring into the sky!" ”

Hearing this, Liu Bei's heart was dripping blood, but his face said calmly: "Xuzhou was handed over by the first emperor to Taozhou Mu, and if he takes over, won't he fall into the name of a traitor." ”

Watching the conversation between the two, Chen Qi on the side didn't know what Liu Bei thought, he just wanted fame and power.

Well, since the son likes this person, then help him.

Chen Jue interjected: "Non-yes, non-yes, after Xuande is the ancestor of the Han family, at this time the world is in turmoil and the imperial power has fallen, it is the time when Xuande Kuang helps the Han family, how can he lose big because of a small loss." ”

"This, this ......" Hearing such righteous words, Liu Bei was in a dilemma, not knowing whether to want or not, after all, he had already refused just now, if he opened his mouth at this time, wouldn't it be a slap in the face.

Seeing that Liu Bei was already moved, Chen Qi said slowly: "Just Taozhou Mu summoned the families in the city to a banquet, presumably to give way to Xuande in person, and Xuande must seize the opportunity. ”

What the!

Tao Qian still wants to give way, it seems that he has really made up his mind, isn't that going to become a state pastor, this happiness came too suddenly.

Liu Bei's heart was stunned by this sudden happiness, and he was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

And Chen Deng saw that he was silent, thinking that he still wanted to refuse, and hurriedly said: "The Ming Duke has been fighting for many years, and there has never been a city, so he will run around and achieve nothing. ”

If you continue to resign, I am afraid that it will backfire, Liu Bei replied sadly: "But even if you are ready to take over Xuzhou, with no one to assist, it may be difficult to achieve a big thing." ”

Chio naked recruitment, this Liu Bei really can kick his nose in the face, Xuzhou has not yet arrived, and he wants the Chen family to sacrifice his life.

Chen Qi was about to agree euphemistically and vaguely, but Chen Deng suddenly knelt down and said: "If Ming Gong doesn't dislike it, Yuanlong is willing to serve the work of dogs and horses." ”

Hearing this, Liu Bei laughed in his heart, but his eyes were teeking up and Chen Deng said: "Yuanlong came to help when he was in difficulty, and he was unforgettable." ”

Looking at the two of them with tears in their eyes, Chen Qi shook his head in his heart, it seems that the Chen family is going to get on Liu Bei's boat, but he doesn't know whether it is good or bad.

However, if Liu Bei is in power in Xuzhou, the Chen family will definitely become the first, but I don't know if it will be difficult for him to defend in this environment of enemies on all sides.

Seeing that the two of them still looked at each other, Chen Jue couldn't help but interrupt: "I don't know what Xuande plans to take over Xuzhou."

Liu Bei was shocked in his heart, he thought that if he subdued Chen Deng, the Chen family would definitely help him with all his might, but he thought that Chen Jue was still sober, and it seemed that the old man was just difficult to be impressed.

Touching the tears from the corners of his eyes, Liu Bei said slowly: "If you are ready to take over Xuzhou, you must be based on Cao and Yuan, and integrate the forces in Xuzhou, which has been used, and then recuperated for several years, and slowly has been plotting the surrounding princes." ”
