After Liu Feng and Yi Ji left the tavern, they went to Cai's mansion under the escort of the Cai housekeeper.

Kneeling on the carriage, Liu Feng fell into deep thought.

The previous scene was a bit inexplicable, he dined in a tavern for the first time in his life, but he met a gentleman who cleared the scene, which can be regarded as luck.

It was only from that Zhang Gu's body that Liu Feng was able to get a glimpse of Cai's strength.

Dong Cao Peng Fu Xun, this character Liu Feng has some impressions, the official position is not big, but the power position is heavy, which is much more important than engaging in Fei Guan.

After all, there are many things under Liu Biao's account, but there is only one Dong Cao Peng.

And such a character has to back down seven points when he encounters Cai Mao, and from the reaction of Fu Xun's nephew Zhang Gu, Liu Feng came to this terrible conclusion.

The power of the Cai family is not simply huge, but also has a power that is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Under such a behemoth, people meet people and retreat, and gods meet gods and retreat. Even an arrogant gentleman like Zhang Gu didn't dare to touch the tiger's whiskers.

Estimate the power and influence of the Cai family. Liu Feng couldn't help but have a feeling of heartbeat, there is something called borrowing.

Take advantage of Cai's momentum to boost his own power. After going back, it's time to consider letting Xu Tian get in touch with Cai's more, and he doesn't need Cai's help on the surface, just Cai's influence in all aspects.

By the way, there's one thing you can plan for.

Liu Feng knows all about the major events that happened in this era, but he knows very little about natural disasters. However, there is one thing that Liu Feng remembers very clearly.

In the summer of the twelfth year of Jian'an, Jingzhou, and even the entire south of the Yangtze River, experienced a very large-scale drought.

The drought was followed by floods.

This matter is actually not a big deal in Jingzhou. Because Jingzhou has gradually prospered under the governance of Liu Biao, it is more than rich. There are countless granaries everywhere. Therefore, this natural disaster in history did not affect Jingzhou.

The reason why Liu Feng remembered this incident was because in the thirteenth year of Jian'an, Cao Ying went south. This natural disaster occurred on the eve of the Battle of Chibi, twelve years after Jian'an, so Liu Feng vaguely remembered.

In the past, Liu Feng had no power, no resources, and no territory. So these things are unimaginable, but now they can be used.

Earn Liu Biao's food, and earn Liu Biao's money.

With the power of the Cai family.

A smile flashed in Liu Feng's eyes. When he has the power and the conditions, he can do these deals.

After thinking about it, Cai's mansion gradually arrived.

To Liu Feng's surprise, Cai's mansion was not very luxurious, and it was almost as large as Sima Hui's mansion. The vermilion gate in front of this gate also seems to be a little dim.

Three generations of nobles, the Cai family has been in Jingzhou for hundreds of years. Naturally, it will not be like the nouveau riche, making the mansion magnificent.

Liu Feng knew it in his heart, so he was not so surprised.

"Childe, please get out of the carriage." Butler Cai walked to the side of Liu Feng's carriage from the front, bent down and saluted.

"You're polite." Liu Feng nodded, got up and got out of the carriage. At this time, the Yi nationality, who was only a few steps away from Liu Feng's carriage, also got off the carriage with Liu Feng.

"Please take this adult to the side hall and wait." Since Cai Mao wants to find him, Liu Feng will not hang Cai Mao and talk to Yi. Naturally, he saw Cai Mao first, and then he reminisced with Yi, so he said to the housekeeper.

"Don't worry, the old slave will naturally send someone to take care of it." Steward Cai arched his hand.

"Brother Yi, please wait a moment, I'll go see Mr. Dejun first. When I came back, I drank with Brother Yi again. Seeing that Steward Cai agreed, Liu Feng smiled and raised his fist to Yi.

Yi Ji was looking at Cai's Mansion at this time, and when he heard this, he turned around and smiled: "Brother Kou is at his own convenience." ”

Liu Feng's eyes lit up when he saw this, and if he wanted to take his Yi nationality, I am afraid that he would have to borrow the power of the Cai family.

I thought about it in my heart, but Liu was very natural on the cover, and raised his fist and said, "Please ask the housekeeper to take me to see Mr. Deju." ”

"Childe, please."

Liu Feng followed Steward Cai into Cai's mansion, turned a few corners, and came to the door of a house. Steward Cai stopped in front of this room, bent over and saluted: "The master is inside, the son please." ”

"I'm tired." Liu Feng nodded, and then walked in.

After entering the house, Liu Feng felt that his eyes lit up. But it turned out to be a study, but it was different from the ordinary people's study, this study was full of a sense of delicacy both from the furnishings to the structure.

Liu Feng admired for a moment, and then turned his gaze to the person kneeling in the middle.

This person was looking at Liu Feng with a helpless look.

"I've seen my uncle." Liu Feng smiled slightly, bent down and said. This person is Cai Mao.

"Do you know how dangerous this Xiangyang is?" Cai Mao saw that Liu Feng not only did not feel guilty when he saw him, but smiled on his face, and couldn't help but feel a little angry.

When her daughter came back with news and said that Liu Feng appeared swaggering in Xiangyang City, Cai Mao was half shocked to death. Hurriedly dispatched his confidant to meet him.

"No one in Xiangyang should know me." Liu Feng was a little lacking in confidence when he said this, but he also knew that if someone didn't recognize him, I'm afraid Cai Mao wouldn't have sent someone to pick him up.

"Nobody knows you?" Cai Mao sneered, but told Liu Feng what happened on Fei's side.

"Fei's?" Hearing these two words, Liu Feng's eyes immediately flashed a bit of gloom, these two words really had an unspeakable humiliation in Liu Feng's heart.

The concubine becomes the concubine. Fight with Yellow Shot, although victorious. But it was mostly a fluke, if it weren't for that Zhang Gu being Gan Ning's brother, he would not have enough to accompany him with a few lives.

This is all a good thing that Fei's does.

"Forget it, I'll explain to you later. Tell me first, what are you doing when you are a Jiangxia Taishou and enter the city alone? How long do you have to stay? Cai Mao saw that Liu Feng's eyes flashed gloomily, and a little sympathy flashed in his heart, a man's husband, it is indeed not a happy thing to be humiliated like that.

couldn't help but change the topic and asked about Liu Feng's intentions.

"I'm looking for people who can help me manage Jiangxia. My uncle should know that I don't have many officials. Liu Feng said very calmly.

"A civil official, can you take such a risk?" Cai Mao was a little unconvinced, Jingzhou is full of talents, and the most important thing he needs under his account is civil officials.

"It depends on whom." Liu Feng replied with a smile.

Cai Mao raised her head and looked at Liu Feng, wanting to see some clues from Liu Feng's face, but after a long time, she still found nothing. couldn't help but shake his head and said: "Forget it, you people who set up troops to fight are difficult for ordinary people to guess, just like that Liu Bei, I don't know what I am doing in Xinye Town." ”

As he spoke, Cai Mao's tone changed, and he said a little seriously: "I don't care what you are doing in Xiangyang, I must ensure that you can go back to Jiangxia with this life." For the sake of conservatism, you will live in my Cai Mansion first. In the future, the carriage should use the kind of carriage with carriages, and do not be seen at will. ”

"Thank you, brother" Although Liu Feng knew that Cai Mao did this, it was completely for Cai Yu's face, and it had nothing to do with him, but Liu Feng was still very grateful in his heart.

Because he knew that Cai Mao hid in Cai's mansion and also took a certain risk. After all, this Jingzhou still belongs to Liu Biao, not Cai's.

Seeing that Liu Feng agreed, Cai Mao was also relieved, he was really afraid that Liu Feng would not be happy to live in Cai's mansion. Judging from the battle of Jiangxia and entering Xiangyang alone, this kid is definitely a bold person.

In fact, Cai Mao hates this kind of brave and bold character the most. But Liu Feng was an accident, who called Liu Feng his brother-in-law.

Cai Mao thought helplessly.

After talking about Liu Feng's safety, Cai Mao talked to Liu Feng about Fei's affairs, including the fact that he asked his daughter Cai Da to warn Fei's family.

"The grudge with Fei must be settled. This is beneficial for you to sit in Jiangxia. In the end, it is to accept Fei's door-to-door apology and reconciliation. Or don't die, eradicate Fei, you decide for yourself. However, I personally think it's better to accept Fei's apology, and I can guarantee that after apologizing to you, Fei's will never do anything wrong to you again. When Cai Mao assured Liu Feng, he was full of confidence, as if Fei was just a little ant in his eyes.

Liu Feng did not doubt this, judging from the reaction of Zhang Gu in the tavern today, Cai's was really as simple as pinching an ant to death for Fei's.

"If he comes to the door to make amends, the matter can be written off." Liu Feng thought for a while and made a decision.

It's a personal and big decision. Fei and Liu Feng have a big grudge, but no matter how big it is, it is only a personal grudge, and it can't be compared with major events.

He sits in Jiangxia, and the entanglement with the Fei family must be broken. lest there be any extraneous branches. It is easy to eradicate Fei's, but that can only be eradicated by Cai's hands.

If it is said to take advantage of the situation, Liu Feng does not mind. But if it was borrowed from Cai's hand, Liu Feng felt that it was not very appropriate, and he didn't want to rely too much on Cai's strength to eradicate dissidents.

's own personal grievances can now be written off in Cai's reconciliation. It's already a pretty good thing.

Liu Feng is not a person who does not know how to advance or retreat.

Liu Feng's choice made Cai Mao's eyes flash with appreciation. His sense of Liu Feng has also changed a lot, if Liu Feng launched the war to seize Jiangxia before, he would have felt brave and ruthless. So now, Liu Feng can be regarded as a figure who knows advance and retreat and understands power and strategy.

In the game of power schemes, there are no enemies. As long as it is not a life-and-death feud, the other party relented and came to apologize. Everything is negotiable.

"Hehe, it's so good, I think that Fei Guan's old horseman will definitely rush back non-stop after receiving the news from his son Fei Guang. Come to the door and make amends. Just wait for a bad breath. Cai Mao said with a smile.

"Thank you, brother-in-law." Liu Feng thanked him.

"Do you and I still need to say thank you?" Cai Mao smiled slightly, pretending to be displeased. Immediately, he smiled again: "Seeing you in the dust, you must be tired, the room is ready for you, go down and rest." ”

"Hmm." Liu Feng nodded.
