Chapter 978: Capricious Liu Jingsheng

Liu Biao was angry, completely angry.

He just picked up the wine bottle and smashed it on Liu Xin's body. He was still angry, so he immediately grabbed the copper plate with meat on the desk and smashed it at Liu Xin with the meat.

This banquet was held to celebrate Du Xin's victory, but now it was used to curse Liu Xin.

Liu Xin saw the copper plate being thrown at him and hurriedly avoided it.

Liu Xin couldn't bear the two palm-sized copper plates hitting him.

After he dodged, he asked in a low voice: "My lord, I just used an extra hundred thousand shi of grain, why is this so? Our country in Jingzhou is rich and the people are strong, and a mere 100,000 shi of grain is just a small amount. You are so angry that I feel sad in my heart."

.Cao Cao is as fierce and vicious as a snake. He was sent as an envoy to the State of Wei even though he was under a humble position. He finally came back to report the news, but he was treated like this. It’s unfair!”

He had just returned to Jingzhou and didn't know Du Xi's situation, so he shouted loudly, feeling that it was unfair.

In fact, one hundred thousand shi of grain is indeed affordable for Jingzhou.

But things are afraid of comparisons. Once there are comparisons, things will be difficult to say. Du attacked 200,000 shi of grain to solve the problem of asking for help and persuaded Sun Jian to send troops.

With Zhuyu in front, how could Liu Biao not be angry?

Cai Mao cupped his hands and said: "My lord, it's important to take care of yourself. Don't get angry just for a little food. Although there is more food, as long as the Shu army can be retreated, it can be regarded as using food to avoid disaster."

When Liu Xin heard this, he looked at Cai Mao with tears of gratitude.

Du Xi watched with cold eyes and said nothing.

Although he had received Liu Biao's promise, he had not been appointed and was not yet Liu Biao's minister.

It took Liu Biao a while to recover, and he cursed loudly: "Idiot, bastard, do you know how much grain Du Xi used? It was only 200,000 shi of grain. He only used 200,000 shi of grain to convince Sun Jian. But.

But you spent 400,000 shi of food, and you still have the nerve to come back."

When Liu Xin heard this, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

He stood motionless, as if he was in a daze.

Immediately, Liu Xin recovered and glanced at Du Xi with a resentful expression.

If it weren't for Du Xi, how could he have been severely criticized by Liu Biao.

Liu Biao cursed loudly before the anger in his stomach subsided, and then shouted: "Come here, please arrange a seat next to the door of the store for Liu Xin to sit."

When Liu Xin heard this, his face turned red with embarrassment.

Are there seats by the door?

This was obviously an insult to him. Liu Xin was angry, but he did not dare to get angry at Liu Biao. Instead, he vented all his grievances on Du Xi, believing that it was Du Xi's fault. He already hated Du Xi in his heart.

Deep into his bones. Du Xi noticed Liu Xin's look in his eyes, smiled and didn't take it to heart.

There is nothing to be afraid of if you are not timid!

The attendants arranged wine bottles and meat for Liu Xin, and then continued the banquet.

However, because of Liu Xin's interference, the atmosphere was no longer as lively as before. After all, the four hundred thousand shi of grain made Liu Biao very heartbroken. He became very angry when he thought of sending so much grain to Cao Cao. The group had just started the banquet not long ago.

, a chamberlain hurried in, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, Ambassador Wu is asking for an audience outside the palace, requesting an audience with your Majesty."

"Envoy from Wu State?"

Liu Biao frowned, with a puzzled expression on his face.

Immediately, Liu Biao ordered: "Introduce him to the palace!"

After finishing speaking, Liu Biao immediately stood up, and all the civil and military ministers also stood up and followed Liu Biao towards the main hall.

This is the place where Liu Biao received Du Xi's accompaniment, and it was impossible to receive Wu envoys. However, Du Xi and Liu Xin stayed, because Du Xi was not an official under Liu Biao, so he was not qualified. As for Liu Xin, because of his

It was full of drinks and it was rude, so I didn’t follow.

In the main hall, Liu Biao sat high on the throne, with a group of civil and military ministers below him.

Civil and military personnel were lined up on both sides, looking solemn and solemn.

The envoy sent by the State of Wu was Lu Su. He was wearing a black robe and a crown of virtue. He strode to the main hall, bowed to Liu Biao and said in a harmonious voice: "Lu Su, the envoy of the State of Wu, pays homage to His Highness the King of Chu.

Immediately, Lu Su's expression changed and he asked loudly: "Dare you ask the King of Chu? If the Chu Kingdom is in danger, do you really ask for help from my king?"

Liu Biao frowned, feeling that something was wrong.

How does this sound like launching an army to investigate?

Before Liu Biao could speak, Kuai Liang raised his hand and said, "Mr. Lu Su, my king sincerely asks the king of Wu to send troops to help, and has given two hundred thousand shi of grain to support the king of Wu. Can't we still show our sincerity?"

When Liu Biao heard this, he nodded quickly.

Two hundred thousand shi of grain has shown his sincerity.

Lu Su flicked his sleeves and said in a cold voice: "King Chu, my king heard that Cao Cao sent troops to help, and you gave him 400,000 shi of food. However, I, the State of Wu, sent troops to help, but you gave me 200,000 shi of food. Of course, I, Wu

It’s not that the country cannot provide 200,000 shi of grain, but your envoy said that both Wei and Wu countries gave 100,000 shi of grain to finance their troops. But the news from Wei was different. It said that both sides gave 300,000 shi of grain.

What’s the point of sending tens of thousands of grains to support troops?”

In fact, Sun Jian only received 200,000 grains because of Du Xi's intelligence.

As a result, Sun Jian could only accept defeat.

But the initiative lies not with Liu Biao, but with Sun Jian.

After Sun Jian heard the news, he immediately sent Lu Su to question Liu Biao, which was a bit unreasonable. However, Du Xi said that Cao Wei and Sun Wu both had one hundred thousand stones of food and grass, which gave Sun Jian the opportunity to attack.

Excuse. The bottom line you Liu Biao gave to Cao Wei was at least 300,000 shi of grain and grass, while the bottom line for Sun Wu was at least 100,000 shi of grain and grass. This is contempt for Jiangdong.

The two countries sent troops to help each other and treated them equally. However, Wu State was short of food and Sun Jian had the opportunity to attack.

After listening to Lu Su's words, Liu Biao felt depressed and could only endure it.

There is no way, who makes Liu Xin incompetent?

Regarding Du Xi, Liu Biao suddenly felt that this person was unreliable. He began to vent his anger on Du Xi and became dissatisfied with Du Xi. All changes were nothing more than changes in circumstances.

Lu Su did not give up and continued: "If the King of Chu does not give an explanation, my lord will immediately withdraw his troops and stop advancing."

When Liu Biao heard this, he became anxious.

Sun Jian was his life-saving straw. If Sun Jian retreated, how could he and Cao Cao resist the Shu army?

Liu Biao waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Mr. Lu, what do you think of this? If we are isolated, we will add an additional 200,000 shi of grain and grass to supply the King of Wu. In this way, Wei will have 400,000 shi of grain and grass, and Wu will also have 400,000 shi of grain and grass. In this way, both sides will be fair."

"When Liu Biao said these words, his heart was bleeding and he felt very depressed.

In the blink of an eye, another two hundred thousand stones of food and grass were lost.

After Lu Su heard this, he was silent.

He was carefully considering whether to add more.

Liu Biao thought that Lu Su disagreed, so he continued: "Mr. Lu, Du Xi deceived the King of Wu, embarrassed the general, and expelled him from Xiangyang in isolation. What do you think?"

"good!"

After Lu Su heard this, he immediately agreed without thinking.

By doing this, Liu Biao undoubtedly destroyed the city wall.

The fact that Du Xi was expelled from Xiangyang is not the key. The most important thing is that Du Xi worked hard to help Liu Biao, but in the end he was expelled. This will definitely make the civil servants and generals under Liu Biao feel chilled. Is such a Liu Biao still worthy of their loyalty?

?Do they still dare to go all out to do things for Liu Biao?

At this time, Lu Su was very happy and his trip was well worth it.

He achieved his goal, raised his hands and said: "King Chu is wise and decisive, and Su admires him. Su will definitely tell my king what King Chu said, and let King Wu know King Chu's sincerity."

Liu Biao was furious in his heart but kept a smile on his face.

As for Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue, they looked at each other with deep disappointment in their eyes.

Liu Biao's actions were so chilling.

Although Jingzhou is facing a crisis, it cannot be so mean! After Lu Su left, Liu Biao's order was immediately conveyed. At this time, Du Xiru, who was still immersed in joy, was struck by lightning and was stunned. Unexpectedly, he was tired from running around

, in exchange for all the hard work, he was expelled from Xiangyang.

Liu Xin stood aside and gloated.

Du Xi didn't know how he left the palace, he was completely disappointed.
