Soldiers come to the world

Chapter 40 Kuaiyue's Persuasion

Outside the north gate of the city, Gan Ning was still waiting patiently. He was defeated because he participated in the battle against Liu Zhang's enthronement in the middle of Shu, and was forced to become a water thief. .

Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the city, he encountered Cai Zhong's attack, which made Gan Ning really upset. If his temper had been followed, he would have already walked away, but for the sake of young Liu Jing's dedication to protecting him, he decided to endure it a little longer. Don't argue with Cai Zhong, let's talk after meeting Liu Biao.

Liu Jing looked back at Gan Ning from time to time, he was also very worried, worried that Gan Ning would leave in a fit of anger and really go to seek refuge with Sun Quan.

Gan Ning is one of his favorite characters in the Three Kingdoms. There was no such character as Liu Jing in history. Now that there is one, will Gan Ning's fate be changed?

On the top of the wall, Cai Zhong squinted his eyes and looked at Liu Jing from time to time. At this time, he was not very interested in Gan Ning, but this Liu Jing aroused his interest, especially the war horse on his crotch, which made him salivate.

"The state shepherd is here!"

A soldier yelled, and saw a group of soldiers walking out of the city quickly, surrounded by Liu Biao, the state shepherd riding on a tall horse, followed by several men on horseback, it was Cai Mao, Kuai Yue and others.

Liu Biao reined in his horse and looked at Gan Ning indifferently. Gan Ning hurried forward and knelt down on one knee, "Bajun Gan Ning pays his respects to General Zhennan!"

Liu Biao smiled slightly, "Sir Gan, please come up!"

Gan Ning got up and said: "Gan Ning has done bad deeds, I hope the general will not blame the past, and I am willing to serve the general."

Liu Biao laughed, "It's the luck of Jingzhou, and it's also the luck of Liu Biao, that Mr. Gan is willing to change his mind and serve the imperial court. For the time being, Mr. Gan will lead his troops to live in Fancheng. I will allocate money and food on time. When the lowly position has wronged Mr. Gan, what do you think Mr. Gan will do when I report to the imperial court to protect you as a general of Zhonglang?"

Gan Ning was overjoyed, Liu Biao actually agreed to protect him as General Zhonglang, and he knelt down on one knee again, "I would like to serve General Zhennan."

Liu Biao squinted his eyes and smiled. This is the third road that Kuai Yue refers to. He neither uses him nor drives him out. Raising Gan Ning in Jingzhou will neither damage his reputation nor calm the troubles of thieves on the water. Kill two birds with one stone.

The so-called guarantee that he is a general of Zhonglang is just an excuse, to keep Gan Ning safe, such as Yajiang and Quchang, Liu Biao can appoint him himself, but Zhonglang general, school lieutenant and other positions must be reported to the court .

But the imperial court has always been procrastinating, and there will be no news within a year or two. More importantly, if the matter cannot be completed, he can pass the responsibility to Cao Cao. Anyway, Liu Biao has done his best, and this matter has nothing to do with him.

Gan Ning is an upright person, he didn't understand this kind of evasion in the officialdom, he thought that Liu Biao was sincere to protect him as a general, and he was full of gratitude and anticipation to Liu Biao.

Liu Biao immediately ordered one of his subordinates, "Send Gan Zhuangshi and his party to Fengyi Pavilion in Fancheng, so they can be resettled."

Engaged stepped forward and waved his hands, "Sir Gan, please!"

Gan Ning took a deep look at Liu Jing, bowed to him and saluted him: "Little friend today's protection, Gan Ning will remember it in his heart, we will meet later!"

Liu Jing also returned the gift with a smile, "General Gan, please stay at ease, it will be useful!"

Gan Ning turned around and left, led his men into the boat, and headed for Fancheng on the other side, gradually sailing away.

Liu Biao just glanced at Liu Jing, and said with a slight smile, "Yi Boji said that you are a talented person who can discern things clearly and politely. I decided to send you to Lumen Academy to study. If you study hard for five years, you will surely achieve something. Go back and pack up, your elder brother will take you there tomorrow."

Liu Jing secretly sighed, it has been six years since Jian'an, he didn't have the heart to read it anyway, he bowed and said: "Thank you uncle for your kindness, my nephew is more willing to learn martial arts, and I will study and write by myself at night, I hope uncle will be successful."

Liu Biao was taken aback. He didn't expect Liu Jing to reject him in public, which made him a little unhappy, but he didn't show it. He just smiled, "Okay then! We'll talk about this later."

At this time, Liu Biao saw Liu Jing's BMW again, and his eyes became a little eager. He had received Wang Wei's news that Zhang Wu's BMW had been taken by his nephew.

He also thought about Zhang Wu's BMW for a long time. He sent people to see the horse several times, which was actually a hint to Zhang Wu. Unfortunately, Zhang Wu regarded his life as his life and would rather offend Liu Biao than sacrifice it.

"Hehe! That's a nice horse."

Liu Biao gently stroked BMW's mane, his eyes became more eager.

Cai Mao next to him smiled and said, "Young Master Jing, Master Zhou heard about this war horse last year, but it's a pity that Zhang Wu didn't know what it was..."

The implication is to tell Liu Jing, do you know the fun?A casual word is often a poisonous thorn.

Liu Jing glanced back at Cai Zhong and said with a smile, "Just now General Cai asked me for this horse. If I don't give it to him, I'm afraid I might die. Master Cai, you've made me very difficult!"

The best way to deal with the poisonous stinger is not to hide, but to confront each other. Cai Mao's expression changed, and he turned around to glare at Cai Zhong. Cai Zhong was so frightened that he stepped forward and knelt down, "My lord, this is a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!"

Liu Biao didn't show his face, and smiled, "Everyone has a love for horses, General Cai need not be so panic."

Although Liu Biao liked this BMW, he would not keep it as his own. At the beginning of the year, Kuai Liang told him that the horse was called Lu, and the rider would be a hindrance to the owner. Now that Zhang Wu died because of this BMW, he really agreed. Of course he would never want the horse again.

He smiled at Liu Jing: "I have read the military newspaper, saying that you intercepted Zhang Wu and made military exploits. This horse will be rewarded to you as a military exploit. Take good care of it."

Liu Jing was overjoyed, he was in a dilemma whether he should dedicate this horse to Liu Biao, but he was reluctant to give it, and he seemed disrespectful to his elders, which made him in a dilemma.

Now that Liu Biao officially expressed his opinion to him, it saved him a lot of troubles, and he was overjoyed. He hurriedly clasped his fists and thanked him: "Thank you, Uncle, for the reward!"

Liu Biao chuckled, turned his horse's head and went back to the city, Yi Ji slowly approached Liu Jing, and said in a low voice, "Young Master shouldn't have explicitly refused to go to Lumen to study just now, you should agree first and talk about it later."

Liu Jing shook his head, "Some things can be compromised, but some things can't be ambiguous. If you don't believe what you say, it will make uncle and the Pang family disgusted. What do you think, sir?"

Yi Ji blushed, and chuckled, "Master, you are right, Yi Ji has been educated."

He cupped his hands and followed Liu Biao back. After a while, the soldiers at the gate of the city walked away cleanly. At this moment, Cai Zhong walked up slowly, cupped his hands and said, "I didn't know it was the young master, how offended you are."

"General Cai, you don't have to be polite. If you don't fight, you don't know each other!"

"Young master is really generous!"

Cai Zhong smiled again and said: "If you don't dislike me, I would like to teach you how to learn martial arts. I wonder if you will give me this face?"

How could Liu Jing like him, not to mention that Cai Zhong had ulterior motives, and he might have his own ideas, so Liu Jing cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Thank you, General Cai, for your kindness, my uncle wants General Wang Wei to teach me, I don't want I'm so sorry, I'm sorry."

Cai Zhong laughed dryly, "Hehe! So that's how it is. General Wang's martial arts skills are beyond my comparability. Congratulations, young master."

"General Cai, we will meet later!"

Liu Jing bowed his hands and saluted him, "Farewell."

He urged his horse to run towards the city, Cai Zhong watched him walk away, his face suddenly darkened, and he snorted heavily, "I don't know what's good or bad!"

. . . . . . . .

A small accident disturbed Liu Biao. He paced back and forth in the official room with his hands behind his back. Today, Liu Jing refused his arrangement in public, which really made him unhappy.

It has been a month and a half since Liu Jing came to Jingzhou. As time passed, he gradually began to feel the character of this nephew.

On the surface, this nephew is low-key and silent, tolerant to others, progressive and sensible, and more understanding of the world. Except for a little lack of etiquette, other aspects are not bad.

But now Liu Biao has also discovered that his nephew is tough and extremely assertive, especially when it comes to his personal interests, he will never give in.

From the matter of the war horse today, it can be seen that even though Cai Mao reminded him like that, he has remained silent. It can be seen that he does not want to give the war horse to himself, maybe that is his vital interest.

In addition, the nephew is also very assertive. He will not change the things he decides easily, and he even does not hesitate to confront him. Today's Lumen reading is the best comment, and he even rejected his proposal in public.

Although these personalities are not bad, Liu Biao still feels very unhappy. In Jingzhou, no one dared to object to his arrangements and opinions. His words are holy words in Jingzhou, but Liu Jing dared to say no to himself, and even Not for the first time.

Including his disrespect to his wife, and giving the Xuanlin sword to Cong'er without authorization, the accumulation of these small things made Liu Biao feel dissatisfied with his nephew, and he didn't like this nephew a little bit.

At this time, Kuai Yue's voice came from the door, "Master, may I come in?"

"Come in!"

Liu Biao sat back in his seat, and after a while, Kuai Yue came in, bowed and saluted, "My lord!"

"Sit down and talk!" Liu Biao smiled and waved his hands.

Kuai Yue sat down opposite, took a careful look at Liu Biao, and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, you don't seem to be in a good mood?"

Liu Biao sighed slightly, "Some inexplicable troubles."

"But it's about Mr. Jing?"

Liu Biao nodded, "Yes! That child... disappointed me."

"My lord's disappointment, is it because of his incident against Cai Mao today, or because of his study at Lumen Academy?"

"It's both! He should learn to apologize, and he should learn to respect the opinions of his elders, but he failed to do neither."

Kuai Yue stood up and bowed deeply, "I'm here to congratulate my lord, the family has great talents."

Liu Biao was taken aback, "What do you mean by that?"

"My lord, please allow me to speak frankly."

"Tell me! Of course I won't blame you."

Kuai Yue smiled slightly, "My lord thinks what will happen to Gan Ning without Liu Jing today?"

Liu Biao pondered for a while and said, "Either Gan Ning will be killed, or he will leave after making a fuss."

"Then what if Mr. Cong is in Beicheng instead?"

Liu Biao smiled wryly, "I'm afraid it will be even more chaotic, let alone him, even Qi'er can't handle it well, he is too hesitant and cowardly."

"But Mr. Jing has handled it properly. My lord, he is only 16 years old. This kind of courage to deal with crises is unique among his peers. At least I have never seen it. Moreover, I heard from Mr. Xuande that his general Zhao Yun was in Runan was injured by Cao Jun. It was Mr. Jing who never gave up and took him to escape. Even when Yu Jin caught him, he could deal with it calmly. Is the child affectionate, righteous, witty and sharp, a malleable talent?"

Liu Biao had also heard about this matter from Liu Bei, but Liu Biao didn't quite believe it. He felt that Liu Bei was deliberately flattering Liu Jing.

He lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then sighed again, "But he is so tough that he even dared to contradict my words in public. He is devoted to martial arts and doesn't want to read the books of sages. I am worried that he is too rebellious."

"This is exactly what I want to persuade my lord. Jingzhou is the place where four battles were fought. In the north, there is Cao Cao's tiger watching the whale, in the east, there is Sun Quan's wolf ambition, in the west, there is Liu Zhang ready to move, and in the south, there is Zhang Jin in Jiaozhou, who has been fighting for years. In the future, Mr. Qi will succeed, although he has more talents. , but the bravery is not enough, too weak, it is difficult to resist the powerful enemies on all sides, has the lord considered, who among the nephews and nephews can help?"

Before Liu Biao could answer, Kuai Yue continued: "Young Master Jing is brave and capable of leading the army. Although he dared to contradict the Lord and criticize Cai Mao today, in the future he will also look down on Cao Cao and treat Sun Quan coldly, Lord. Isn't this the good assistant God bestowed on Mr. Qi?"

Liu Biao could barely be regarded as a man of great talent, how could he not understand the profound meaning of Kuai Yue's words, he nodded slowly, and sighed: "The words of the gentleman are golden and good words!"

At this moment, Liu Jing didn't disgust him so much anymore.

But Kuai Yue sighed secretly. He has followed Liu Biao for more than ten years and really understands him. Liu Biao's greatest weakness is hesitation and indecision, changing orders day and night. Now he is persuaded, but what about tomorrow?
