Shi Zhuan was not alone when he came back this time. He was accompanied by his third uncle Shi Wei, fourth uncle Shi Wu, and 20,000 soldiers and horses. When the news reached the county government, Shi Xie was suddenly shocked. He already had it in his hand.
The pen in his hand fell to the ground. He couldn't pick it up anymore. His whole body was like a piece of wood and he fell down stiffly. Shi Hui and a group of servants hurriedly helped Shi Xie up, beat his chest and hurriedly sent people to find him.
doctor.
The purpose of Shi Zhuan's return this time was very clear. Everyone could see that it was for the position of governor. When he walked into the lobby of the Yamen and saw Shi Hui sitting on the main seat, Shi Zhuan was furious: "Shi Hui, you want to rebel?
?You also sit in this seat?"
Biejia said hurriedly: "The eldest son, please calm down. The governor will let the second son take care of the affairs of the state temporarily before he falls ill."
"Nonsense!" Shi Zhuan gave Bijia a fierce look: "Even if my father is sick, he is still the governor. The seat of chief is always his father's. Even if Shi Hui is temporarily in charge, you cannot sit there. Come on! Drive Shi Hui out of here.
.”
"Brother!" Shi Hui hurriedly stood up and clasped his fists at Shi Zhuan: "My father is still on the sick bed. We brothers should be harmonious to prevent my father from being sad and his condition getting worse. Since my eldest brother thinks it is inappropriate for me to sit there, I will just get out of the way."
Shi Wei smiled slightly: "You should indeed give in! This place is not your place to sit in the first place. Brother, he has always been in good health, why did he suddenly become ill?"
Shi Zhuan looked at Shi Hui: "Tell me, who wants to harm my father?"
Shi Hui shook his head: "No one wants to harm my father. When my father heard that my eldest brother was coming back, he fainted for a while. The doctor looked at him and said that it was blood and blood attacking his heart. He would be fine after a few days of rest. You two uncles and eldest brother don't have to worry."
Under the leadership of Shi Hui, the three of them came to the door of Shi Xie's room. After being nursed back to health by the doctor, Shi Xie had woken up. He was leaning on the couch and the servants fed him some gruel. His face was still haggard, and his speech was weak.
Zhuan yelled, and Shi Xie felt as if something was stuffed in his chest. He couldn't cough it out or swallow it. His father knew very well who his eldest son was. It was because of his courage that he had no fear in Jiaozhou. In order to
To train this son, Shi Xie deliberately arranged for him to live in Nanhai. Unexpectedly, he secretly interacted with his third and fourth brothers. Many times, Shi Xie wanted to call his eldest son back and let him be the governor of another county again. In the end, because he wanted to
Using it to resist Jiangdong has no choice but to give up.
Shi Xie's series of coughs interrupted Shi Zhuan's shouting. A mouthful of thick phlegm came out of his mouth, and it turned out to be red. The servants and doctors were shocked. Shi Zhuan grabbed a doctor by the collar and said, "You bastard, how do you treat this disease?"
If there is anything wrong with my father, I will kill you all!" The doctors were so frightened that they did not dare to speak.
"Zhuan'er!" Shi Xie let out a long breath, waited for a long time, and tried to sit up with all his strength. Shi Hui hurriedly stepped forward to help him. Shi Xie threw the doctor away and hurried to Shi Xie's couch.
: "Whoever caused you to be like this, tell me, and I will avenge you!"
Shi Xie waved his hand: "There is no one. My son came back and was happy for his father, but he accidentally fell ill! Come and watch!"
The servants brought some embroidered piers, and Shi Zhuan, Shi Wei, and Shi Wu sat down. Shi Zhuan took a deep breath and asked: "Liu Bei and Long Fei are fighting fiercely in Jingzhou. You are my gateway to Jiaozhou, not your own."
In the county, why did you come back so suddenly?"
The three of them looked at each other and Shi Zhu said: "Father, Long Fei coerced your majesty to attack Liu Bei. Liu Bei is your majesty's grandson. People in the Central Plains call him Liu Huangsun. This Jingzhou is also owned by Liu Biao. After Liu Biao's death, his son Liu Qi
They are still here, but Long Fei actually attacked them, wanted to kill their people and seize their land, and drove Liu Bei to Changsha. Liu Bei couldn't resist and asked us for help. I came back this time to get my father to agree to let me lead troops to rescue."
Shi Xie shook his head: "We in Jiaozhou have been quiet for decades since the last war. The affairs of Jingzhou have nothing to do with us. You just need to defend your own counties and don't interfere in the affairs of Jingzhou!"
"Father, Long Fei deceived people too much. He massacred the city after capturing Xiangyang. In order to hunt down Liu Huangsun, he did not hesitate to use the people as bait, and the people suffered heavy casualties!" Shi Zhuan still did not give up: "People who came from Jingzhou said that when Long Fei captured Xiangyang,
Tens of thousands of civilians were killed and wounded in several cities in Nanjun and Jiangxia. It was much more brutal than Dong Zhuo's in the past! We are all officials of the Han Dynasty, we can't just watch Liu Bei humiliate the emperor's grandson and ignore it!"
Shi Xie looked at Shi Zhuan: "But what Long Fei said is exactly the opposite of what you said. Long Fei is in the Yamen. Do you want to ask him?"
"Father, you have all been deceived by Long Fei!" Shi Zhuanxian expressed his heartache: "Long Fei captured Jingbei, and Jingzhongyou's lack of support has sent troops to attack Jingnan, Wuling, Lingling, and Guiyang. The three counties are in danger. If Changsha
If it is captured by Long Fei again, our next target will be our Jiaozhou!"
"Brother, aren't you a little too excited?" Shi Hui said: "General Long is a humble man. He has made friends with many people in Jiaozhi. Even Zen Master Kang Senghui said that General Long is kind. How could such a person do this?
This kind of thing."
"What do you know! You have no place to speak here!" Shi Zhuan was very unhappy.
Shi Xie coughed again. He looked at Shi Wei and Shi Wu and asked Shi Wei, "Third brother, your Cangwu is closest to Jingzhou. You must know something about Jingzhou. Can you tell me how Jingzhou is going?"
Is Long Fei really what Zhuan'er said?"
Shi Wei coughed lightly and said with a smile: "If you ask me, brother, I will tell you. In fact, what the eldest son said is a bit exaggerated, but the situation is correct. Long Fei ordered a hundred thousand troops to raid Wancheng, and captured Liu Qi, the shepherd of Jingzhou.
After driving out, he sent his army down again and sent naval troops to surprise Jiangxia, forcing Liu Bei to abandon Nanjun. Now Long Fei's army has penetrated deep into Jingnan, and battle reports are delivered every day. The prefects of Lingling, Wuling and Guiyang are afraid.
Long Fei's army surrendered one after another. It can be said that in the entire Jingzhou, only Changsha is still controlled by Liu Huangsun."
"What kind of person is Long Fei?" Shi Xie looked at Shi Wei: "I want to hear the truth!"
Shi Wei nodded hurriedly: "About this, as the eldest son said, Long Fei is famous for his treachery in the Central Plains. Although we don't know the number of civilian casualties in this attack on Jingzhou, in short, the number of Liu Huangsun and Jingzhou Shepherd Liu Qi is
Ten thousand soldiers and horses were killed by Long Fei, and the whole world knew about it."
"Father!" Shi Hui hurriedly defended Long Fei: "Third uncle, you can't say this nonsense. I have often interacted with Long Fei these days. Although he is domineering, he is quite upright in his words and deeds. The two uncles and
Brother is just making one-sided remarks, please ask General Long to come and you will know."
"Don't worry about this despicable villain!" Shi Zhuan looked disdainful and moved to Shi Xie's side: "Father, as long as you agree to send troops, we will immediately rush back to the South China Sea and lead the army to attack Lingling and Guiyang.
Seize these two cities first and use them as a springboard to march into Jingnan. After capturing Jingnan, we will have a guarantee for the army to attack the Central Plains. This is an excellent opportunity for us in Jiaozhou and we must not miss it."
Shi Xie was silent. Shi Zhuan, Shi Wei, and Shi Wu took turns to persuade each other, but Shi Xie never nodded. Shi Zhuan couldn't bear it anymore and stood up in a loud voice: "Father, what should we do before you agree?"
Do you agree to send troops?"
Shi Hui said: "Brother, my father has made an agreement with Long Fei that the two families will always form an alliance and will not invade each other. You must not send troops at this time!"
Shi Zhuan looked at Shi Hui and said angrily: "What do you know? Such an opportunity is fleeting. If my father does not agree, don't blame the child for being rude. For the future of our Jiaozhou and the prosperity of our Shi family, the child can only
I'm sorry, father."
"Brother! What are you talking nonsense about?" Shi Hui was forced by Shi Zhuan to have no way out, and he also said harsh words.
"Hmph!" Shi Zhuan snorted coldly: "When I come back this time, I will bring 20,000 soldiers and horses. If my father does not agree, then please ask my father to give up his position as the governor of Jiaozhou."
"Brother! You...?" Shi Hui also stood up and looked at Shi Zhuan.
Shi Zhuan did not take his younger brother seriously at all: "I am the eldest son. My father is seriously ill and cannot be in charge of the affairs of the state. I should have the final say on matters in Jiaozhou. Since you are the prefect of Jiaozhi, you move away from your father and stay with your father all day long."
People around me say bad things about me, thinking that I don’t know, and I will settle the score with you when I come back this time!”
Shi Huiqi's chest kept rising and falling: "You're talking nonsense!"
Shi Zhuan turned around and stopped looking at him, shouting out the door: "Come here, take off the military badge for me!"
A dozen soldiers rushed in with a roar. Seeing so many people in the room, they didn't know what to do. Shi Zhuan said angrily: "If you don't take down the traitor badge, do you also want to rebel?"
Several soldiers still did not move. Shi Xie was furious and shouted: "Stop!" After saying these two words, he started coughing violently again. Those who listened were frightened and worried that Shi Xie would cough up all the organs in his stomach.
Come out. Shi Hui and several servants hurriedly came forward. Shi Xie took a few breaths and pointed at Shi Zhuan with one finger: "You bastard! Get out! Get out!"
Shi Zhuan wanted to argue, but Shi Wei looked around, hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Shi Zhuan's clothes, and pulled Shi Zhuan out. As soon as he walked out of the door, Shi Zhuan broke away from Shi Wei's hand and said, "Uncle, what are you doing?"
What is this for? As long as we are more ruthless, we can seize the governor's position. Now that we are gone, my father still thinks that the second child is good."
Shiwu shook his head and pointed around: "Look, where is this place? Your father has a very high prestige in Jiaozhou. As long as he doesn't say anything, no one dares to touch Shihui? If we make a mistake, we will suffer a lot.
It’s us, you and I are no match for the hundreds of guards in the Governor’s Mansion?”
"What should we do if we come down?" Shi Zhuan looked at his two uncles.
Shi Wei said: "Our army is outside the city. It is safe only when we return to the military camp. Then I told your father about the governor, but he couldn't help but refuse to agree."
Shi Zhuan chuckled: "Uncle San is still smart, let's go! Let's leave the city immediately."
Shi Hui has been taking care of Shi Xie. He didn't know when his two uncles and eldest brother left. After waiting for Shi Xie to go to sleep, he stretched and asked the doctor to prepare the medicinal soup. Long Fei didn't know when he would show up.
Behind Shi Hui, he stretched his head to look at Shi Xie, and suddenly said: "It is not a good thing for the old governor to be sick at this time. Just now I saw your two uncles and eldest brother were smiling when they went out. I'm afraid Jiaozhi
