Xiangyang, inside the palace.
Liu Bei was very unhappy and was furious.
When the guards outside the palace heard Liu Bei's roar and the sound of bamboo slips and other items falling to the ground, they were so frightened that they stood guard with all their vigor.
When Zhuge Liang took control of Xiangyang City, he imprisoned Cai Mao, Liu Xian, Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang.
Liu Bei took over Xiangyang and immediately went to Kuai Mansion and Cai Mansion to visit Cai Mao and others, and finally also visited Liu Xian.
He gave enough face to the four of them, and win over the four of them with nice words, hoping to use them for his own purposes.
However, Liu Bei was frustrated and didn't get anything.
Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang politely declined Liu Bei's request, while Cai Mao excused himself because of his illness.
Liu Xian had a strong temper and cursed Liu Bei as a traitor and a white-eyed wolf, scolding Liu Bei bloody.
Even though Liu Bei had a good temper, he couldn't calm down when faced with four uncooperative people.
At this time, steady footsteps came from outside the hall.
Zhuge Liang strode in wearing a white robe and holding a feather fan.
He bowed respectfully to Liu Bei, then raised his hands and asked: "My lord, why are you angry?"
Liu Bei said angrily: "Kong Ming, you know the situation, why do you ask questions knowingly?"
Seeing that Zhuge Liang asked questions knowingly, Liu Bei felt a little unhappy.
Zhuge Liang said: "My lord, in view of the humble position, it would be better for Kuai Yue and others not to serve as officials.
The big families of Jing and Xiang such as the Kuai family and the Cai family have deep roots and intertwined powers.
If Kuai Yue, Kuai Liang and Cai Mao enter the court as officials, my lord It is also difficult to control them.
Now that they have wisely chosen not to become officials, the lord can send troops to imprison them, control these Jingxiang families, and gradually disintegrate their power, thus unifying Jingxiang.
This is actually a good thing. " After Liu Bei heard this, his brows relaxed.
However, Liu Bei shook his head slightly and said: "Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang are great talents.
It would be a pity if they did not become officials.
Cai Mao was born in Jingxiang and grew up in Jingxiang.
He is quite knowledgeable about the training of the navy.
If Cai Mao were to take the responsibility Being the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy can also help me train an elite navy; Liu Xian is famous in Jingxiang, and with Liu Xian joining us, we can recruit Jingxiang’s celebrities more smoothly and increase our own strength, but it’s a pity that none of them can be used by me. ” Liu Bei sighed repeatedly, very disappointed.
Although Zhuge Liang's words have some truth, Liu Bei also has his own plans.
Liu Bei sighed with emotion and asked: "Kong Ming, what can I do for you?"
Zhuge Liang took over the military and political power and had many affairs, so he had little time to spare.
Now Zhuge Liang comes to Liu Bei in person, obviously for something important.
Zhuge Liang cupped his hands and said, "My lord, Liang came to see my lord.
He indeed has a great news to tell my lord."
Liu Bei's curiosity was aroused and he hurriedly asked: "Kong Ming, what's the good news?"
Zhuge Liang said mysteriously: "My lord has a wife."
"What" After Liu Bei heard this, his body suddenly stiffened, and he opened his mouth slightly, with an expression that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.
The tips of his brows twitched and his eyes kept turning.
Immediately, Liu Bei's eyes turned red and his body continued to tremble.
Zhuge Liang repeated: "My lord, you have a wife."
Liu Bei suddenly stood up, with tears in his eyes, and said with great joy: "With the blessings of our ancestors, Bei finally has an heir, and someone can inherit the Liu family's legacy."
Liu Bei was so happy that he was almost crazy, very excited, as if It was Fan Jin who passed the examination.
Among the princes in the world, Wang Can, Sun Jian and Cao Cao all have descendants, but he has no heirs.
This is something Liu Bei is very worried about.
Now, he, Liu Bei, finally has a child.
Liu Bei took a deep breath and asked: "Kong Ming, how do you know this?
I don't know about it yet."
Zhuge Liang explained with a smile: "My lord's family has just arrived in Xiangyang.

On the way, my lord's concubine was feeling unwell.
After asking a medical officer for diagnosis, I found out that my lord's concubine was pregnant.
Congratulations, lord, congratulations."
Liu Bei thought for a while and said: "It should be that after I arrived in Xiangyang, one of the dancing girls presented by Liu Biao was pregnant.
Okay, okay, I, Liu Bei, finally have a child.
Pass the decree and make this girl my wife."
According to ancient rituals, the princes and kings have The first queen, the third wife, the ninth concubine, the twenty-seventh wife, and the eighty-one female emperor, the pregnant dancer directly changed from the unlucky woman at the bottom to one of the three powerful ladies in the harem.
It was like a grass chicken turned into a phoenix.
Soared into the sky.
But Liu Bei didn't care about this.
He began to think that if he could give birth to a baby boy, he could make him the heir apparent.
When Liu Bei became a father for the first time, he cheered and was very happy.
After a pause, Liu Bei ordered: "Kong Ming, please summon all the civil and military officials.
I will hold a banquet to celebrate."
"promise" Zhuge Liang was also very happy to know the benefits of Liu Bei having a child, because Liu Bei had an heir, which would make the interests of Liu Bei Group more secure.
"Ta-ta-ta" Just as Zhuge Liang turned around to leave, Yi Ji hurried in.
He looked in a hurry and had a worried look on his face.
When he saw Zhuge Liang walking out, he waved his hand to signal Zhuge Liang to stop.
Yi Ji bowed and said: "I have a humble position and have met my lord."
Seeing Yi Ji like this, Zhuge Liang immediately had a bad premonition in his heart.
Zhuge Liang stopped and turned back.
Liu Bei saw that Yi Ji was in a hurry, frowned and asked: "Uncle Ji, I see you are in a panic, what happened?"
Yi Ji cupped his hands and said, "My lord, there are three things reported back.
One is that Zhang Yun and Wenpin led their soldiers to surrender to the Shu army, and joined forces with the Shu army to attack the army led by the three generals.
The three generals were defeated and were retreating.
Go to Xiangyang The second is that Sun Jian betrayed Liu Biao's covenant and led his army back to attack Jiangxia County with all his strength.
The third is that Cao Cao also betrayed the covenant and led troops to attack the territory north of Jingzhou and began to gradually encroach on the territory north of Jingzhou. " "Pa" Liu Biao's expression changed drastically and he punched the desk with his fist.
He was planning to hold a banquet just now, but now he has no idea of joy at all.
Sun Jian and Cao Cao became wolves, and Wang Can's Shu army came over like wolves and tigers, giving Liu Bei a huge blow.
Liu Bei calmed down his impetuous mood and asked: "Kong Ming, the situation is dangerous, what do you think?"
Zhuge Liang also felt that the situation was critical, but there was no panic on his face.
He said unhurriedly: "My lord, we should immediately summon civil and military officials and deploy the army, otherwise we will be in danger."
Liu Bei nodded and said, "Uncle Ji, go and convey the order and summon the civil and military officials to discuss matters."
"promise" Yi Ji nodded in agreement and immediately turned around and left.
Liu Bei no longer had the idea of going to see his woman, and took Zhuge Liang directly to the main hall.
Along the way, the two were discussing how to resist the Shu army and how to resolve the offensives of Sun Jian and Cao Cao.
In the Hero Building, Wang Can received news from Lu Meng's army.
Lü Meng subdued Wenpin and Zhang Yun and led the army south.
Wang Can was very happy, but what followed was that Wang Can had to act as soon as possible, otherwise Lü Meng's army was approaching Xiangyang, and he would have to attack by force.
As the capital of the Chu State, Xiangyang was much stronger than Wancheng, Nanzheng, Huaili and other cities, and was far from being comparable to the other cities.
The most important thing is that Xiangyang is located in Nanjian, with many rivers passing through it, including the Han River and Xiangshui River.
Therefore, Xiangyang not only built a solid city, but also surrounded it with a moat, which made it more difficult to attack the city.
It can be said that it is almost impossible for Lu Meng's 80,000 soldiers to capture Xiangyang.
Therefore, Wang Can's action is imperative.
Wang Can asked in a deep voice: "Wu Huang, how are you preparing to sneak into Cai's house?"

Cai Mao is Wang Can's first target, so Wang Can asked Wu Huang to make preparations early to facilitate sneaking into Cai's house. .
Wu Huang said: "Lord, don't worry, the joints have been opened.
We can enter Cai's house through the food delivery person."
Wang Can immediately asked: "What time is it specifically?"
Wu Huang replied: "People who deliver food usually go to Cai Mansion early in the morning, so early tomorrow morning, the lord and senior brother will change their appearance, pretend to be food delivery boys, and enter Cai Mansion directly."
Wang Can nodded and felt relieved.
With careful preparation, there will be enough time to convince Cai Mao. s: Three updates two;:
