Moreover, Ma Teng knew very well that Liu Jing was not the only one to choose. He was not the only one in Guanzhong. There were various separatist forces, large and small. Although their advantage in obtaining horses was not as great as his own, the proverb goes: "If you have money, you can use it."
Ghost." What about people? If you have money and food in your hands, what can't you buy?
What's more, Han Sui from Liangzhou is by his side. Even though Liangzhou is a long way away, he can't stop Liangzhou from producing a good horse. How can Liu Jing'an not be tempted?
Therefore, Ma Teng was extremely attentive to Han Guang, and was not as generous as the lion on the price of the horse. He also offered to set the trading location in Wuguan and expressed his willingness to undertake the transportation of materials. This can be said to be full of sincerity. Of course, in this way
It was also done to monopolize Jingzhou's trade and not give the generals in Guanzhong a chance to interfere.
Han Guang came to Huaili to meet Ma Teng this time, and the harvest was far greater than expected. After staying in Huaili for a few days, he said goodbye to Ma Teng and returned home with a full load.
Compared with Han Guang, Lu Su had to face the situation of mission failure and return without success. A few days after the winter solstice, Lu Su still failed to convince Zhuge Liang, let alone Liu Jing. He had no choice but to ask Liu Jing for help.
Words.
Liu Jing could not persuade him to stay, so he went to the ferry to see him off. Lu Su took a ship from Jingzhou, so he no longer had to go around Jiangxia. The ship sailed down the river and returned to Wu County within a month.
When Jiangdong's monarchs and ministers learned from Lu Su that Liu Jing had put forward two extremely harsh conditions for renewing the alliance, they were all dumbfounded for a moment. If they did as he said, they would still form an alliance, wouldn't this completely become the other party's vassal?!
Zhou Yu felt deeply humiliated and became furious. He stood up and said: "Back then, the Chu State relied on its own strength, competed with Jin for hegemony, and bullied small countries. It once started provocations because of the dispute, and attacked the Wu State. In the end, the capital of Ying fell, and the King of Chu fled.
The fate of."
Zhou Yu continued: "We, Jiangdong, have renewed our alliance with Jingchu, but because the north is undecided, we want to form a kingdom of lips and teeth to see world affairs. If Liu Jing thinks that we, Jiangdong, are weak and can be bullied, and has evil thoughts, we, Jiangdong ten, will
Tens of thousands of generals and soldiers must prepare their armor and hold their troops, waiting for him to come! How can we be afraid of a mere Chu!"
"Gong Jin said it well!" Xu Kun said, snapping the case and saying, "Our troops in the east of the Yangtze River are rich in fine food. The three armies use their orders, go out in boats and raise sails, and arrive in the morning and evening. The soldiers are brave and good at fighting. If Liu Jing dares to raise troops to invade,
I’ll make sure it never comes back!”
Zhang Zhao spoke up and said: "Liu Jing is a jackal and a tiger! He swallowed Zhang Jin and Liu Biao. He has an invincible military front and few defeats. You should not despise him. Moreover, after Jiangxia returned from defeat, the civil strife has subsided. At this time, you should rest and recuperate."
For the top, I have to work hard and mobilize the masses for the bottom. In my opinion, it is better to stay with Liu Jingxu for the time being and just perfunctory things."
Sun Quan was worried. After hearing Zhang Zhao's mature words, his face brightened slightly and he asked, "I wonder what Mr. Zhang has to suggest?"
Zhang Zhaodao: "Liu Jing used the Yuzhang bandits to attack Jiangdong, and we can also respond accordingly. The general may as well send an order to Sun Yuzhang, order him to conquer the bandits in the territory, behead the bandits and send them to Xiangyang, and give him a little money and food, so that Liu Jing can hardly have an attack.
."
Sun Quan secretly nodded, this is a way, but if Liu Jing really has the intention to plot Jiangdong, this method cannot stop Liu Jing. Sun Quan looked at Lu Su and asked: "Zijing, tell me, Liu Jing
Does Jing have any bad thoughts about Jiangdong?"
Lu Su said without thinking: "What Liu Jing is planning is not just a corner of Jiangdong, but the whole world. Now that Cao Cao dominates the north, and if Liu Jing wants to compete with him, he must take Jiangdong and Bashu as his foundation, otherwise he will be unable to resist.
China."
Sun Quan smiled bitterly in his heart and said: "How could I have been so obsessed with forming an alliance with such people in the first place, and ended up being a tiger with wings without saying anything, and now I am facing the danger of a vicious tiger backlash, how stupid I am! Zijing, Zijing... alas!"
…………
At the end of December, when bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new, it was a busy time for government affairs. Today, Liu Jing was rarely in charge of affairs in the palace. Instead, he was waiting by the Han River, eagerly awaiting the arrival of his family.
"coming……"
A fleet of dozens of large passenger ships and warships suddenly burst into view, and Liu Jing couldn't help but feel excited as he was about to reunite with his family who had been away for more than half a year.
In addition to Liu Jing's family, this fleet also brought the family members of his subordinates.
According to the "guaranteed" system, to abide by the order, the soldiers and their families must stay behind as hostages. Now that Liu Jing has moved to Xiangyang, the officials and their families will naturally move to Xiangyang to live.
Liu He and Liu Rao were not afraid of the cold wind and stood on the deck, waving to Liu Jing on the shore. As soon as the ship docked, Liu He and Liu Rao couldn't wait to get off the ship and meet Liu Jing.
"Okay, okay..." Liu Jing looked at Liu He, who was dissatisfied with his weak position but was calm and measured. He felt pleased and patted his shoulder heavily.
Liu Jing originally planned to let Liu He practice hard in Ling County, where he started, but the plan could not keep up with the changes. He did not expect that he could seize Jingbei so quickly. Now he has moved to Xiangyang and left Liu He in Jingnan.
It was somewhat inappropriate, so he was asked to go north with his family and was transferred to the post of Yicheng magistrate.
Liu Jing looked at Liu Rao again and said with a smile: "Ah Li, I have taken a fancy to a young talent in Xiangyang and I think he can be your husband."
"Oh? Who is it?" Liu Rao asked curiously. She knew how high Liu Jing's vision was, and ordinary young talents could not catch his eye, otherwise she would have been married long ago.
Liu Jingyao pointed to Ma Liang, who stood out among the crowd behind him, and said, "That's the guy."
Liu Rao followed Liu Jing's hand and saw a beautiful young man with a good appearance and a good expression. His heart suddenly skipped a beat. With her carefree temperament, she actually became shy and whispered to Liu Jing: "I completely listen to my brother.
, Brother, just make the decision for me."
Liu Jing smiled and shook his head without saying anything. Then he straightened his clothes and went straight to the boat to meet his stepmother and sister-in-law.
His sister-in-law Lai Ci was still gentle, and her few warm greetings made Liu Jing feel at ease. His nephew Liu Qun had not been seen for more than half a year. He had grown taller, and his face had lost the tenderness of a child and transformed into a handsome young boy.
Stepmother Zhang was chatting and laughing as usual on the surface, but she was a little unhappy in her heart. She felt that Liu Jing now occupied dozens of counties in the two states of Jingjiao, and Liu He was his brother. Even if he was not divided into a state, he should be allocated a county.
?As a result, the land was still only given to one county, which was extremely small.
However, given Liu Jingjin's current status, Mrs. Zhang no longer dared to show off her expressions casually. She could only hold it in her heart and be sulky alone.
Liu Jing didn't notice his stepmother Zhang's thoughts. He was now occupied with his wife and children. After seeing his mother and sister-in-law, he came to his wife Deng Yuan, hugged his eldest son Liu Qi, and told them how he missed them, and then
Taking over the infant second son Liu Bi from Deng Yuan, he saw that his eyes were wide and he neither cried nor fussed. He was very cute.
Liu Jing smiled and said: "He is indeed my son. He has traveled thousands of miles at the age of several months and his appearance remains as normal. This son will definitely be extraordinary in the future."
Deng Yuan deeply agreed, and sighed with Liu Jing: "I originally thought that he was weak when he was born and could not bear to travel, so I planned to leave him in Linxiang until he was 18 years old, and then take him to Xiangyang. Who would have thought that when we parted, he was in the arms of his wet nurse?
He kept crying, and everyone said that he didn't want to be separated from me. I tried to carry him on board, and as expected, the crying stopped, so I changed my mind and took him north."
"Although this son cannot express anything, he is born with the utmost filial piety. He is truly a beautiful son from heaven." Liu Jing was filled with emotion when he heard this, and he loved him even more.
