When Liu Bei and Guan Yu came out of Liu Biao's mansion, it was almost noon, Liu Biao listened to Liu Bei's suggestion, and personally wrote an official document, appointing Liu Bei to take full charge of the alliance with Sun Ce.

Liu Bei took the official document, and together with Guan Yu, went to Yi's mansion in Xiangyang.

Yi Ji had been waiting in the mansion for a long time, and when he saw Liu Bei and Guan Yu coming, he hurriedly went to greet them, and when he came to Liu Bei's side, he said, "The eldest prince has been waiting in the mansion for a long time. ”

Liu Bei nodded, and followed Yi directly into the mansion, Guan Yu suddenly stopped when he entered the door, and said to Liu Bei: "Big brother, I'll go around the neighborhood!" ”

"Xiangyang is not Changsha, the second brother must not cause trouble!" Liu Bei instructed.

Guan Yu said: "Big brother, don't worry, I have my own measure." ”

Liu Bei was very relieved of Guan Yu, didn't say anything more, and entered the mansion with Yi Yuan, while Guan Yu closed the door of the mansion and walked straight towards the alley, and soon disappeared into the crowd.

At this time, a short and sturdy middle-aged man poked his head out of the side of the Yi mansion, and after looking around, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said to himself: "The eldest prince and Liu Bei, the governor of Jingnan, have a secret meeting in the Yi mansion, if Lord Cai knows the news, he will definitely reward me heavily......"

As soon as the words fell, the man turned around and left, who knew that he hit a person directly, but bounced him away, sat on the ground with his buttocks, and his buttocks hurt a lot.

"You don't have a long fucking walk......," the man scolded, and when he looked up, he saw a red-faced man standing in front of him. His eyes were blazing and he was looking at himself. Long beard hangs down the chest. With a strong physique, he only felt that this person was very familiar, and after thinking for a while, Guan Yu's name jumped into his mind.

Guan Yu stretched out his long arm and directly grabbed the back collar of the man's clothes, like carrying a chicken, and directly lifted the man up and held it high above his head. A pair of tiger eyes stared at this person, opened his mouth and asked, "Say!" Who sent you? ”

The man said, "No...... Nobody sent me, I'm just passing through here......"

"Fart! Just this little fucking trick of the fuck, and you still want to hide it from me? You have been following us all the way here since we left Liu Jingzhou's mansion, and you said you were just passing through here? You're an idiot when I shut someone up! Guan Yu shouted loudly.

Seeing Guan Yu exposing his lies, the man didn't know how to deal with it for a while. At this moment, Guan Yu's arm was forced, and he only felt that he had been thrown out, falling heavily to the ground, and there was pain in several places on his body. There was a whine, mournful howl.

Suddenly, a big foot stepped directly on his chest. Guan Yuhu's eyes were furious, and he asked sharply: "If you don't answer, Guan will let you taste my methods!" ”

As he spoke, Guan Yu raised a fist the size of a bowl, and hit the man in the face with a fist, and when the man saw this, he immediately closed his eyes and screamed.

However, the fist did not fall, but stopped in front of his face, and a fierce fist wind came to his face, if this punch really fell, I was afraid that the bridge of his nose should be broken.

The man's face was so frightened that his face was earthy, and a torrent poured out from between his legs, and he was so frightened that he urinated on the crotch of his pants.

"Say it! Who sent you? Guan Yu squatted down, and the strength on his feet increased a lot, and the person who stepped on it was about to run out of breath.

I said...... I said......" said the man, with all his might.

Only then did Guan Yu remove the big foot that was stepping on his chest, grabbed the man, and asked, "Say, who sent you?" ”

The man hesitated, "Yes...... It's ......"

"Don't stammer, if you do this again, Guan will let you have no good fruit to eat!"

"Yes, yes...... I said, I said all. It was Lord Cai who sent me here to secretly spy on Liu Bei...... Oh no, it's Liu Dudu's every move, and he reports to Lord Cai. ”

"Lord Cai? Which Lord Tsai? Guan Yu asked again.

"It's Lord Cai Mao!"

After Guan Yu heard Cai Mao's name, he said slowly: "It turned out to be Cai Mao......"

"What else did Cai Mao let you do?" Guan Yu glared at the man again and asked.

"No, it's nothing, Lord Cai learned that Liu Jingzhou was going to summon Liu Bei, so he sent me to monitor Liu Dudu and report Liu Dudu's every move to him."

"And what did you see?"

"I ...... I didn't see anything......"

Guan Yu snorted coldly, clenched his fists again, and asked, "Do you still want me to beat you?" ”

The man was so frightened that he hurriedly said, "I saw that the eldest prince also entered here......"

Without waiting for the man to finish speaking, Guan Yu raised his fist and knocked the man unconscious, and then carried this person directly into the Yi mansion.

At this moment, Liu Bei and Liu Biao's eldest son, Liu Qi, were discussing in the hall, Guan Yu suddenly carried a person to the hall, threw the person directly on the ground, and said: "Big brother, this person was sent by Cai Mao to monitor the eldest brother, it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time, it is better to leave as soon as possible." ”

After Liu Qi heard this, he immediately frowned, clenched his fists, and angrily hit the table in front of him, slapping the things on it all over the place.

"Cai Mao is too deceitful!" Liu Qi said angrily.

Liu Bei said: "The eldest prince is angry, since Cai Mao has already taken action, he will definitely not send only one person to follow me, perhaps, in the place where Yun Chang can't see clearly, there are other people hidden." Eldest prince, why don't we each leave Xiangyang first, wait until we get outside the city, and then make contact, how about discussing countermeasures at that time? ”

Liu Qi arched his hand and said, "Everything is according to my uncle's wishes." ”

"Yun Chang and I will go first, first lure away the people who may be lurking around, and then Ji Bo will secretly send the eldest prince out of the city. We'll see you twenty miles outside the city! Liu Bei said.

"Uncle is very thoughtful, and the little nephew will follow his uncle's wishes." Liu Qi said politely.

So, Liu Bei and Liu Qi separated, and together with Guan Yu, they left the mansion of Yi and walked out of the city with a swagger.

Things were as Liu Bei expected, Cai Mao sent several secret agents in order to monitor Liu Bei, Guan Yu caught only one of them, and the other few were in other different positions, because there was a distance in the middle, so the secret agent that Guan Yu caught did not attract the attention of the rest of the people.

At this time, as soon as Liu Bei and Guan Yu left, they immediately attracted the attention of the rest of the spies and quietly followed.

Guan Yu was riding a horse, and a pair of tiger eyes had been scanning around, and found a few suspicious people, so he said to Liu Bei: "Big brother is like a god, then Cai Mao really sent more than one person to monitor big brother." ”

Liu Bei said: "Don't startle the snake, wait until you get out of the city!" ”

"Yes!"

The two of them came to the gate of Xiangyang City together, and saw a long-faced man wearing an iron helmet and wearing iron armor standing there with a group of soldiers, as if waiting for something.

Liu Bei was shocked in his heart, and secretly thought, "This group of people can't be waiting for me, right?" ”

However, Liu Bei still kept his composure, and slowly rode his horse to the city gate with Guan Yu.

At this time, the general saw Liu Bei coming on horseback, and sure enough, he blocked the city gate with someone, took a few steps forward, and bowed to Liu Bei and said: "It's Cai Zhong below, and I've been waiting for Liu Dudu here for a long time." ”

Cai Zhong is Cai Mao's brother and a member of Cai's party, and he appeared here and blocked Liu Bei's way, so naturally there was nothing good.

Liu Bei reined in the horse and arched his hand: "It turned out to be Captain Cai, I don't know if Captain Cai blocked my way, why do you have to do it?" ”

Cai Zhong said bluntly: "I am ordered by the Governor of the Metropolitan to wait for Governor Liu again, hoping that Governor Liu can show his face and go to the Governor's Mansion to talk about it." ”

Liu Bei said: "It turned out that Governor Cai Dadu was invited, if I don't go, wouldn't it be too bad to give Governor Cai Dadu's face?" ”

After Guan Yu heard this, he hurriedly said, "Big brother......"

Liu Bei raised his hand, stopped what Guan Yu was about to say, and arched his hand to Cai Zhong: "It's rare that the Metropolitan Governor will invite me Liu Bei, then ask Captain Cai to lead the way in front!" ”

Cai Zhong saw that Liu Bei was quite cooperative, so he didn't take any action, rode a fast horse, and let a team of people open the way in front, while he went to the Dadu Governor's Mansion with Liu Bei and Guan Yu.

The Jingzhou army is divided into two different systems: the navy and the army, among which the navy has the largest number and the strongest strength.

Cai Mao is a wealthy family in Jingzhou, and knows the water system of the Han River and the Yangtze River basin very well, and is very good at water warfare, and is Liu Biao's brother-in-law, so he was appointed by Liu Biao as the governor of the navy, commanding thousands of warships and 80,000 sailors in Jingzhou.

Therefore, when it comes to the governor of the capital, everyone in Jingzhou knows that he is talking about Cai Mao.

The Shili of the Cai clan is deeply ingrained in Jingzhou, intricate, and criss-crossed, with Liu Biao being the nominal lord of Jingzhou and Cai being the lord of Jingzhou in the shadows. So some people want to do anything, they come to Cai Mao, as long as Cai Mao agrees, there is nothing he can't do.

However, if you want to enter Cai Mao's door, there is no substantive "sincerity", you can't get in, some officials want to go through the back door, they will give Cai Mao gifts, Cai Mao will go to tell her sister Mrs. Cai again, the sister and brother take turns to blow the wind around Liu Biao, and Liu Biao will basically be fooled.

This time, Cai Mao invited Liu Bei, on the surface Liu Bei was calm, but in fact, he was up and down in his heart. Cai Mao is Liu Biao's minister, Liu Biao has great trust in him, and Liu Bei is an official who is released, the two have always been well water and do not violate river water.

Liu Bei's heart was uneasy all the way, and he followed Cai Zhong for a while to the Dadu Governor's Mansion.

The Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is located in the east of Xiangyang City, covering an area of Aurora, and the mansion is also extremely luxurious, even more magnificent than Liu Biao's Governor's Mansion.

Cai Zhong stopped at the gate of the Dadu Governor's Mansion with the team, and said to Liu Bei: "Liu Dudu, we are here, please dismount and go in with me!" The Metropolitan Governor has been waiting for Liu Metropolitan for a long time! (To be continued......)
