Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang both stared at Cai Hao, wondering what Cai Hao was up to.
Cai Mao asked: "Zirou, Yidu, what do you two think of our current situation?"
Kuai Liang frowned and said, "Degui, neither you nor I are willing to submit to Liu Bei. This is a mutual communication between the Kuai family and the Cai family. Could it be that you can't wait any longer and are ready to surrender to Liu Bei?"
Cai Mao shook his head and said: "Liu Bei is just a poor man. Why should he go to him?"
Quin Yue asked; "You are so mysterious, what are you going to do?"
The two brothers asked questions one after another, but they did not understand Cai Mao's intentions and were confused.
Seeing that both of them were staring at him, Cai Mao shrugged and said slowly: "Okay, let me ask you this, what do you two think of the King of Shu?"
When Kuai Liang heard this, he suddenly had some enlightenment.
He said with a serious look: "Degui, have you surrendered to the King of Shu?"
Cai Mao shook his head as a matter of course and said: "Not yet, I brought you here to discuss things, just for the sake of the King of Shu. You all know that Xiaoya and Yueying ran away from home and already lived in Chengdu. Some time ago
Xiaoya wrote a letter saying that she had made up her mind not to marry Liu Biao, but to marry the King of Shu, so I had the idea to ask you what you think."
Although Wang Can was in Cai Mao's house, Cai Mao did not admit it.
He had to be on guard against others. He had surrendered to Wang Can and had to consider Wang Can. So Cai Mao let go little by little. He had to make sure that both Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue chose Wang Can before throwing Wang Can out.
When Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue heard this, they immediately fell silent.
The two of them knew very well about Cai Ya.
With the relationship between Cai Ya and Wang Can, it is normal for Cai Mao to have the idea of ​​contacting Wang Can. Both of them thought about it carefully, but did not immediately agree or deny it. After a while, Kuai Liang asked again: "Degui, Cheng
There must be Wang Can's subordinates inside, have you contacted them?"
Cai Hao shook his head like a wave and directly denied it.
Cai Mao said: "Xiaoya's heart has already turned to the King of Shu. Taking this opportunity, I also intend to turn to the King of Shu. Let's see what you two think and let's discuss it."
Kuai Liang said solemnly: "Now that the world is in chaos, if our Jingxiang clan does not submit to Liu Bei, we must choose a tree to live in. Otherwise, if the war breaks out, it will be affected. Cao Cao and Sun Jian cannot reach out to Xiangyang and submit to the king.
Can is a feasible way, and we are old acquaintances with Wang Can, so we can definitely be reused."
Kuai Yue said almost as a command: "Degui, you have Xiaoya, who is Wang Can's brother-in-law. With this relationship, try to get Jing people to govern Jingxiang and ensure the interests of our Jingxiang family.
If it were anyone else, it would have an impact on our Jingxiang family. Wang Can is no better than Liu Biao, and it is impossible to deceive him, so we try our best to protect our own interests."
After hearing what Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang said, Cai Mao raised a smile on his lips.
These two guys are also people who are unwilling to be lonely.
After a few words, the two of them easily decided to submit to Wang Can.
Cai Mao coughed twice, pretending to be mysterious and lowered his voice and said: "I tell you, I..." Just halfway through his words, there was a banging knock on the door outside the study.
The old steward of the Cai Mansion shouted: "Sir, the King of Han is here and waiting for you in the hall."
When Cai Mao heard this, the cold hairs on his body stood on end, and his whole body was like a big bow with its string unstrung, suddenly tense up. In fact, this was also a thief's intention. When he knew that Wang Can was in the house, he felt...
He was particularly sensitive, as if someone knew about it, especially Liu Bei's sudden arrival, which made Cai Mao even more nervous.
Immediately, Cai Mao relaxed, because Liu Bei had really discovered Wang Can and had already led troops to surround Cai Mansion. He rushed in aggressively and would not wait gently in the hall.
When Liu Bei came here, he must have known that Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang were here, so he came here.
Cai Mao said: "Zirou, Yidu, there is no point in hiding the two of you. Come with me."
Kuai Liang nodded and said: "Our whereabouts are all under Liu Bei's control, of course we have to get out."
Kuai Yue then said: "Let's go and see what Liu Bei's plan is."
The three of them tidied up their clothes, walked out of the room, and walked quickly toward the hall. After entering the hall, the three of them greeted Liu Bei respectfully, and then sat down separately.
Cai Mao was the master, and he was the first to ask: "The King of Han is here, what's the matter?"
Liu Bei glanced at Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue, and then said with a smile: "I heard that the three of you were drinking happily, and I was very envious, so I came here to join in the fun." Liu Bei did not pretend not to know that Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue were here.
He said calmly and casually that he knew about Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue's situation.
Kuai Liang shook his head and said, "You have nothing to do and drink to pass the time. What's there to envy about?"
Cai Mao said: "The King of Han has many things to do every day and is busy with affairs. It is an honor for Cai Mansion to be able to visit Cai Mansion."
When Liu Bei saw Cai Mao, Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue, they seemed really restless and unwilling to stay at home, so he felt happy in his heart. He sat up straight and said seriously: "When I take over Jingzhou alone and deal with Xiangyang's affairs, I am always unable to do what I can.
I feel that it is a bit difficult, so I would like to ask the three of you to help me. What do you think?"
He put forward his opinions straight to the point without any hesitation.
Cai Mao's eyes lit up and he said: "King of Han, can you please allow Mao to consider this matter for a few days before giving an answer to the King of Han?"
Liu Bei looked at Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang and asked, "Yidu, Zirou, where are you two?"
Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue looked at Cai Mao doubtfully, and finally said that they would think about it for a few days. Seeing that the three of them had unified their opinions, Liu Bei became happy. The Cai family and the Kuai family are both from the Jingxiang family, which is equivalent to the same spirit. They must be together.
They would advance and retreat together, so Liu Bei had no doubts about how many days Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue would have to consider.
On the contrary, he felt that Cai Mao's attitude had changed, which was a good thing.
Even if you think about it for a few days, you still have an opportunity, right?
After Liu Bei solved a big thing, he stood up and said with a smile: "It's rare for you to get together for a while. Gu Xian has gone back. Do you want to continue chatting?" After saying that, Liu Bei stood up and left.
After Liu Bei left, the three of them returned to the study.
After Kuai Yue sat down, he immediately asked: "Degui, what do you mean? You just said you were ready to submit to the King of Shu, but why did you suddenly change your mind? Are you really ready to submit to Liu Bei?"
Kuai Liang thought carefully and then said: "Degui, do you want to regain military power? I think this is impossible. Even if Liu Bei you only use your connections to win over the Jingxiang family, it is impossible to let him
You have military power, so you are seeking skin from a tiger, and you will not succeed."
Cai Mao said: "Zirou, I know it is not easy to gain military power, but pretending to submit to Liu Bei will give you a chance to move. When the time comes, it will be easier for us to win over people who belong to our camp, don't you think?"
Kuai Liang nodded and said: "That's true!"
Suddenly, Kuai Liang asked: "You said you had something to tell us earlier. What was it?"
Kuai Yue also stared at Cai Mao, feeling that something big was going on.
Cai Mao took a deep breath and looked back at the curtain next to the study. Hearing a "swipe" sound, the curtain was lifted, and a person walked out. This person was none other than Wang Can. At this time, Wang Can was no longer dressed as a servant.
The waiter had changed into a large collared shirt, showing his extraordinary magnanimity.
Kuai Liang looked at it carefully and identified who it was.
Although Wang Can has shaved off his beard, he has a completely different demeanor after dressing up.
Kuai Yue marveled again and again and said in a low voice: "King of Shu, it is really a good method, a good method. Everyone said that you were hiding outside the city, but now you are hiding in Degui Mansion. It is really unexpected."
Wang Can sat down with a smile and said: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch the tiger's cubs. If a strong city like Xiangyang is not broken through from the inside, it will be difficult to break through with tens of thousands of troops. In desperation, I had no choice but to enter the city alone.
I'm honored that you are willing to submit to the Kingdom of Shu! I agree to Yidu's suggestion that the Jing people govern Jingzhou, what do you think?"
Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue were overjoyed and said, "Kuai Liang (Kuai Yue), please pay homage to your lord."
With Wang Can's words, the interests of the Jingxiang family can be preserved.
At the same time, the Shu Kingdom is powerful, and with the assistance of the Jingxiang family, it can easily gain a foothold in Xiangyang. This is the benefit of Wang Can's powerful power.
