Liu Jing, through his various efforts and a certain kind of luck, finally got a solution to a huge matter.

The Tao family was generous and exempted Gan Ning from returning the thousand taels of gold deposit, so that Gan Ning would no longer suffer losses in this matter, and also relieved Liu Jing of guilt.

Not only that, the Tao family also re-signed the contract with him to buy and sell slaves, which perfectly filled the last loophole, and the role played by Gan Ning in the matter of slave trading became a trustee, acting on Liu Jing's behalf. Go to Runan to buy slaves.

In this way, the whole incident was complete from process to law, making Zhang Yun invulnerable.

He started to be busy when he encountered a situation at noon, and he was busy until it was dark, and finally came to an end. Liu Jing heaved a long sigh of relief, and finally he could let go of half of his heart that was hanging in the air.

Now, he only needs to wait until the last two hundred copies of the slave bond arrive, then all the legal documents are in place, and he can explain the matter to Liu Biao tomorrow.

Liu Jing went home very briskly as if she had unloaded a burden.

. . . . . . . .

But the operation of all things in the world has its own rules, and nothing will be smooth sailing. It is just in response to the old saying that "people plan things, and things happen in heaven". Often, when major events are about to be settled, an unexpected event comes quietly. .

Liu Jing was pacing back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, it was already the hour of the day, but the last two hundred copies of slave deeds had not been delivered, and Liu Jing's heart hung up again.

Judging from the time, the two hundred slave contracts should have been completed a long time ago, but why they were not delivered, did some accident happen?

Liu Jing had already begun to feel a little anxious. He was not worried about the two hundred slave contracts, but was worried about the reason affecting the two hundred slave contracts. There must be some major change that led to the accident.

At this moment, there was a faint sound of horseshoes in the distance, and it was heard very far in the quiet night. Liu Jing stopped in his tracks and his ears pricked up. He had a very strong premonition that the sound of horseshoes was coming towards him. .

The sound of hoofbeats died away at his door, followed by 'Bang!boom! ' There was a knock on the door, very anxious, someone shouted: "Young Master Jing! Young Master Jing!"

Before Uncle Meng went to open the door, Liu Jing had already walked into the yard quickly, opened the gate, and there were two guards outside, Liu Jing recognized that they were Liu Biao's two confidant guards, Zhang Zhi and Luo Zhu.

"What's the matter?" Liu Jing asked a little uneasy.

Zhang Zhi took out Liu Biao's silver medal, bowed and said, "Zhou Mu orders you to return home immediately."

Liu Jing sighed in his heart, he had already guessed that Liu Biao's order to return him to the mansion must have something to do with the two hundred slave contracts.

"Okay! I'll pack up some things and I'll go with you."

Liu Jing took all the documents, led the horses out, and galloped with them to the south gate of Fancheng.

. . . . . . . . . . .

In Liu Biao's study, Wang Ke stood with his hands down, his head bowed, and his face was full of frustration. Liu Biao paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, his face full of anger, and he couldn't help turning back to Wang Ke, "You are so bold, you dare to do such a thing ?”

Wang Ke secretly hated Cai Mao. He didn't know how Cai Mao found out about his registration and deed, so he informed Liu Biao. As a result, Liu Biao sent guards to the county government office to search for two hundred copies of the slave deed. up.

Wang Xie was Liu Biao's son-in-law, Liu Biao didn't say anything about it, but called him back to his residence and gave him a severe reprimand.

"I couldn't handle this matter properly, but the law also allows post-compensation contracts."

"How dare you make excuses!"

Liu Biao scolded angrily, "Today is the day, and you use this opportunity to make up the slave bond for him. Is this normal behavior? Tell yourself!"

Wang Ke sighed deeply and didn't dare to speak anymore.

At this time, a report from a guard came from outside the door: "My lord, Mr. Jing is here."

"Let him in!"

After a while, Liu Jing walked into the room quickly, knelt down and bowed, "Nephew pays respects to uncle."

Liu Biao glanced at Liu Jing with great dissatisfaction. In just two months, so many things have happened, this nephew is really not easy!

Liu Biao walked back to the table, threw a thick stack of slave bonds in front of him, and said coldly, "You can explain it yourself! I don't want to hear any more sophistry."

Liu Jing thought about it all the way, he couldn't hide this matter, and if he kept hiding it, he would only make himself more passive, so he might as well have a frank talk.

"Uncle, can we talk in private?"

Liu Biao nodded, and said to Wang Ji: "You go! Write me a guarantee for this matter, and promise not to do it again next time."

"Yes! This subordinate retire."

Wang Ke didn't dare to look at Liu Jing, bowed and retreated, Liu Biao closed the door, sat down in his seat, and then slowly said: "There are only two of us in the room now, please tell me honestly, is it what happened?"

Liu Jing started talking about the grievances between him and Zhang Yun when he first entered Youjiao, and then described what happened today in detail, without any concealment, and finally took out all the grievances from the bag he carried with him. The document contract was placed in front of Liu Biao.

"Actually, I've already done it perfectly, and I've taken everything on my head. If Wang Juncheng doesn't have an accident tonight, then this matter will be seamless, but no matter what, I won't hide it from my uncle. Confession."

Liu Biao picked up the documents and looked at them carefully. He was very surprised. He never expected that his nephew would handle the matter so satisfactorily in just half a day. Establishing a contract for buying and selling slaves is not something ordinary people can do.

He pondered for a moment and asked again: "Why is the Tao family willing to help you with this?"

Liu Biao was extremely shrewd, the county government's willingness to pay the slave contract must have been ordered by Kuai Yue, so what about the Tao family?They have never met each other before, how could they help Jing'er so much, and even waived Gan Ning's deposit of 1000 taels of gold, this is not a small face!Liu Biao then realized that his nephew must have some relationship with the Tao family.

Liu Jing pondered for a while and said, "I don't know if Uncle knows that I killed Huang Zu's nephew Huang Yi in Wuchang City?"

Liu Biao picked up Huang Zu's letter of incrimination from the table, looked at it and said, "I know about this, it is said that Huang Yi snatched the women of the people in broad daylight and was killed in the chaos, but it was not your hands. "

"Yes! In fact, the person who actually killed Huang Yi was the daughter of the Tao family, an ignorant girl. Because I took the responsibility for the crime afterwards, the Tao family was very grateful to me and sent someone to Xiangyang to thank me, so I have established friendship with the Tao family."

Liu Biao nodded. Huang Zu's report also said that the real culprit who killed Huang Yi was related to the Tao family, which was consistent with Liu Jing's statement.

Liu Biao walked a few steps with his hands behind his back. This incident shocked him. Only then did he know that his nephew Zhang Yun had hidden selfish intentions, and he was also a slave trader himself. He kept everything from him. No wonder he worked so hard on this matter. A trap he set.

Liu Biao glanced at Liu Jing again. From his anger at Liu Jing at the beginning, to his understanding of his behavior after gradually understanding the situation, he praised his ability.

At this time, most of Liu Biao's dissatisfaction with Liu Jing had gradually dissipated, and Liu Jing did not hide anything, which made Liu Biao very pleased. Moreover, Liu Jing handled this matter satisfactorily and with strong ability, which is really impressive.

Liu Biao thought of Kuai Yue's evaluation of Liu Jing, he is a rare talent, really good!No wonder Kuai Yue was willing to help him with this matter, this Kuai Yue was very discerning and wanted to win over Liu Jing.

Thinking of this, Liu Biao's expression softened, and he asked again: "Why are you so partial to Gan Ning and willing to take such a big risk for him? Why?"

Regarding the matter of Gan Ning, Liu Jing has always wanted to persuade Liu Biao, but Liu Biao cherishes his reputation too much and refuses to use Gan Ning again. Liu Jing is very worried that after this incident, Gan Ning will not stay in Jingzhou anymore, no matter what today , Only Liu Ming can be reused if he is white.

"Uncle, in fact, Gan Ning and his nephew have never met each other, but my nephew has heard for a long time that he is superb in martial arts and has great courage. Such a talent will be our strong support in resisting Cao's army going south in the future. My nephew does not want him to be wronged in Jingzhou , turned to Jiangdong."

Speaking of this, Liu Jing took a deep breath, and said: "You know, both Cai Zhong and Zhang Yun have personal grudges against him. If uncle can't support him, it is very likely that Zhang Yun and Cai Zhong will use the public to benefit their own interests, and will be willing Rather force him to leave, this is the last thing my nephew wants to see."

"Do you really think so?" Liu Biao looked at Liu Jing and said.

Liu Jing nodded, "Nephew is very worried. Once Cao Jun goes south, how determined will the Jingzhou gentry be to fight Cao Jun? We have to plan ahead!"

Liu Jing's words hit Liu Biao's heart disease, and he didn't say anything for a long time. Finally, Liu Biao said lightly: "Okay! I don't blame you for this matter. Since you have completed the matter, the matter of the five hundred military slaves is over. , Gan Ning's matter, I have my own arrangements, you go back!"

"Yes, nephew, farewell!"

Liu Jing heaved a sigh of relief, handed all the documents to Liu Biao, and he withdrew.

Liu Biao stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, thinking for a long time without saying a word. Although his nephew is a great talent, he must be under his control to make him play a role. Don't let him take away his son's limelight.

Thinking of this, Liu Biao immediately ordered: "Bring the eldest son here!"

Not long after, Liu Qi walked into the study, knelt down and saluted, "Father, please tell me."

"What do you think of Jing'er?"

"Brother Jing is young and mature, shrewd and capable, and can be of great use!"

After a moment of silence, Liu Biao asked again: "Do you think he is the kind of ambitious person?"

Liu Qi shook his head, "Father, he is only 16 years old! He has only been in Jingzhou for more than two months, how can he have ambitions? Father is too worried, and my son doesn't think he has any ambitions."

"But your mother told me that Jing'er is very ambitious and wants to replace your brother."

Liu Qi bit his lip and said: "Brother Jing is a very strong person, with strong self-esteem, he doesn't know how to compromise, because of the marriage of the Cai family, he and his mother have fallen out, and the mother hates him deeply, I hope my father can do it." understand situation."

Although Liu Biao was a suspicious person, he didn't doubt his nephew's ambitions because of a few words from his wife. It's just that Liu Jing's performance in the past two months was too eye-catching, overwhelming his son's limelight, which made Liu Biao a little worried.

But then again, a nephew is a nephew, unless he is designated by himself, he has no legal basis to inherit his inheritance, no matter how capable he is, the officials will not recognize him as the lord of Jingzhou.

Thinking of this, Liu Biao felt relieved again, temporarily put aside his worries about Liu Jing, and said to Liu Qi: "Gan Ning is indeed a talent, and I don't want him to be forced to leave Jingzhou. Zhang Yun may be against him tomorrow. You You can use this opportunity to stop Zhang Yun, make Gan Ning grateful to you, and serve you loyally, do you understand what it means to be a father?"

Liu Qi nodded silently, "My child understands!"

Liu Biao watched his eldest son go away with his hands behind his back, a cold smile flashed in his eyes, Zhang Yun. . . .snort!
