    Chapter 199 Number Two

    "Master, master, something bad is going to happen." A servant hurried into the room and fell in front of the middle-aged scholar, screaming in fear.

    "Why are you so panicked?"

    Kuai Liang's face is like a mirror lake, his eyes always stay on the black and white chess game, holding a chess piece in his hand, trying to figure out where to place the piece.

    "I heard that the man named Liu Feng in Changsha threatened Cao Zhengnan, tricked him into opening the city gate, and killed Hu Prefect. Their cavalry was killing people in the city, and there was already chaos outside."

    Hearing this, Kuai Liang's calm face suddenly showed a trace of ripples, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. The chess piece in his hand never fell, and he finally put it back into the chess basket.

    "Go down and tell everyone in the house not to leave the house without my permission these days."

    "Yes, I understand, little one."

    Kuai Liang stood up, walked out of the room, stood in front of the steps with his hands behind his hands, looked outside the high-walled courtyard, and repeated two words in his mouth: "Variables, variables"

    The shouts of killing outside continued until evening. Although the battle was over, fires could be seen in several places in the south of the city. The fires burned all night and were not extinguished until the next day.

    At noon, the entire Xiangyang City returned to calm, but the streets were still deserted. No one dared to venture out the next day after the war.

    "Zhennan General Liu Feng, on the orders of Jingzhou Shepherd Liu Qi, led his army to regain Xiangyang and drive out the Cao thieves"

    I don¡¯t know when, the voices of shouting began to appear on the street. The doubts in the minds of the soldiers and people who were taking refuge at home were gradually solved.

    Liu Feng's name was no stranger to them. In the early years when the two counties in eastern Hunan were in trouble, Liu Feng's name spread a lot in Jingzhou.

    As for Liu Qi¡¯s name, it is even more familiar to the people of this city.

    Frankly speaking, the people of Xiangyang City and even Jingzhou still miss Liu Biao's era. At that time, Jingzhou was like a paradise. Taxes were not heavy, corvees were not complicated, Xianzhou Muguang implemented benevolent policies, and the people lived well.  Peace and abundance.

    At that time, as the eldest son of Liu Jingsheng, Liu Qi had a good reputation among the people for his loyalty and benevolence.

    The dreamlike peace was broken by Cao Cao's southern invasion that year.

    Nowadays, how many people have left their hometowns. Those who stayed not only worried about the clouds of war all day long, but also endured heavy taxes and corvees. The hardship of life made everyone deeply miss the Liu Jingsheng era.  of beauty.

    After so many years, when they heard Liu Qi¡¯s name again, they felt a sense of intimacy in their hearts.

    In Kuai Liang¡¯s heart, he recalled that unforgettable era in a daze.

    At that time, together with his younger brother Kuai Yue, he became Liu Biao's right-hand man and helped Liu Biao govern Jingzhou into a peaceful and tranquil paradise.

    However, for various reasons, his younger brother Kuai Yue became an important minister under Cao Cao, while he himself became an idle man at home, forgetting all the old things.

    Kuai Liang sighed and was about to turn around and go back to his room, but the servant suddenly came to report again in a hurry: "Master, there is someone calling at the door of the mansion. He claims to be Liu Feng, the general of Zhennan, and wants to pay a visit."

    "Liu Feng? Why did he come to me?" Kuai Liang frowned slightly, and suddenly there was a strong doubt in his heart.

    "Master, should we open the door?" the servant asked anxiously.

    Xiangyang changed hands, and the military power was at his disposal. For the sake of his wealth and life, Kuai Liang had no reason not to meet the new owner of Xiangyang City. What's more, Kuai Liang was deeply curious about this former adopted son of Liu Bei, and he couldn't help but feel the urge to do so in his subconscious.  I was eager to see what was so special about this young man who had turned Jingzhou upside down.

    After thinking about it, Kuai Liang waved his hand and said: "Invite him in."

    Kuai Liang did not go to the palace gate to greet him in person, but stood quietly in front of the hall, waiting with an indifferent expression. As the number two figure in the Kuai family in Jingzhou, this kind of reserve was necessary.

    After a while, a young silver-robed general was seen walking forward, followed by three or five soldiers.

    Kuai Liang secretly took a breath, moved down the steps, and slightly cupped his hands: "I don't know that General Liu came to my humble residence, and I missed the welcome. I hope you will forgive me."

    Liu Feng hurriedly returned the courtesy and said with a smile: "Feng Tang's unexpected visit has disturbed my husband's peace. I should ask your forgiveness."

    "General Liu's words are serious, please come inside."

    The Kuai clan in Xiangyang turned to Cao Cao, and the theory was that they were Liu Feng's enemies. However, when Kuai Liang saw Liu Feng coming with his troops, he showed no fear at all, and his words were:Liu Feng couldn't help but secretly praise him for his graceful conduct.

    After the guest of honor was seated, Kuai Liang asked directly without being polite, "Liang is just a commoner. I wonder what the general is doing when he comes?"

    Kuai Liang was straightforward, so Liu Feng did not mince words and said bluntly: "To be honest, Feng has admired the name of Mr. Feng for a long time. Now I am following the orders of brother Zide to drive out the traitors and restore the old business of Jingsheng Xianggong. Therefore, I would like to invite Mr. Feng to come out.  Assuming the post of Zhizhong Zhizhong in Jingzhou, I don¡¯t know what your intentions will be like.¡±

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Under the State Shepherd, there are persons engaged and assistants.  Among them, there are those who are engaged in governance, those who are engaged in Biejia, and those who are engaged in bookkeeping, and those who are engaged in governance are the most important subordinate officials of Zhoumu.

    Liu Feng asked Kuai Yue to take up the post of governing the central government, which meant asking him to be the head of the officials in Jingzhou.

    As soon as these words came out, even Kuai Liang was shocked. Regardless of whether he was a member of the Kuai clan or based on his current status, as soon as Liu Fengfang got Xiangyang, he would make himself the head of the officials. This way  How could his actions not surprise him.

    Liu Feng had his own plans.

    Pang Tong once said that if the four major families of Jingxiangkuai, Cai, Huang, and Pang want to secure Jingzhou, they must have the support of these four families.

    Pang Tong is an outstanding representative of the Pang family. His submission to Liu Feng naturally represents the Pang family's support for Liu Feng.

    As for the Huang family, originally represented by Huang Zu, they supported Liu Biao. However, after Huang Zu's death, the core of the Huang family shifted to Huang Chengyan, and the Huang family also supported Liu Bei.  Now that Jingzhou has succeeded and the Huang family has lost contact with Liu Bei, it will still take time to get the support of the Huang family.

    The Pang and Huang families were both staunch anti-Cao factions, but unfortunately, these two families were not as powerful as Kuai Cai, so they could not prevent Liu Cong from surrendering Jingzhou to Cao.

    The Cai and Kuai families are the two strongest clans in Jingzhou. On the surface, these two clans, represented by Kuai Yue and Cai Mao, are out-and-out "surrendering factions", and Liu Cong's surrender to Cao was also the second clan of Kuai and Cai.  It was a decision that was only made with the full encouragement of people.

    However, Pang Tong told Liu Feng that among the two families, the Kuai family was not a monolithic faction that surrendered to Cao.

    "I'm very grateful for General Liu's commendation, but I'm just a mountain villager, so I'm afraid it's hard for me to bear this heavy responsibility." Kuai Liang refused instinctively.

    Kuai Liang's reaction was already expected by Liu Feng, but he knew that if he wanted to gain a foothold in Jingzhou, the support of Liu Ba and Pang Tong alone was not enough. He must have the support of this person. To be precise, it should be  The support of the family behind this person.

    "My husband once made suggestions for Jingsheng Xianzhou Mu and established Jingzhou's foundation. Now that brother Zide has taken over his father's throne, he wants to inherit Xianzhou Mu's legacy and extend his benevolence and righteousness to the people. I hope that Mr. Xianzhou Mu will be able to study hard."  Therefore, by the grace of the Lord, I came back to assist brother Zide."

    Scholars love fame and pay attention to the kindness of their late masters. Liu Feng reported Liu Biao, which was so overwhelming that Kuai Liang could not refuse.

    Kuai Liang retorted speechlessly, pondered for a long time, but then said curiously: "General Liu, there is something I have to ask. You should be very clear. The position of our Kuai family has always been known to the world. You are forcing me to serve as an official.  Aren¡¯t you afraid of the harm caused by raising tigers?¡±

    Kuai Liang¡¯s rhetorical question is quite straightforward.

    Liu Feng smiled faintly and said, "No matter how others think about it, I know very well that my husband and your brother are different."

    The younger brother Liu Feng refers to is Kuai Liang's younger brother Kuai Yue.

    At that time, Jingzhou clan bandits spread widely, Liu Biao came to Jingzhou alone, and asked his two brothers how to make the people surrender and destroy the bandits. Kuai Liang advocated benevolent government, while Kuai Liang advocated the use of power. These two brothers' philosophy of governing the country  , itself is different.

    Later, Kuai Yue and Cai Mao became good friends and played power, and were gradually attracted by Liu Biao as a confidant. Although Liu Biao still relied on Kuai Liang, his status was far inferior to Kuai Yue.

    Later, when Cao Cao invaded the south, his younger brother Kuai Liang advocated surrendering to Cao Cao. However, Kuai Liang believed that Cao Cao was too harsh in governing the country and the people, so he strongly opposed it, but unfortunately he was unable to save his life.

    After Liu Cong decided to surrender to Cao Cao, Kuai Liang had no choice but to resign and go home. Later, Cao Cao gained Jingzhou and used Kuai Yue more and more, but he was resentful towards Kuai Liang and simply stopped using him.

    Although Kuai Liang is not as famous as Kuai Yue, he still has considerable influence within the Kuai family. His attitude towards Cao Cao also represents the position of some people in the Kuai family to a large extent.

    Such rifts within the Kuai family naturally could not escape Pang Tong's eyes, so when Liu Feng decided to attack Xiangyang, Pang Tong told him that after taking Xiangyang, he must ask Kuai Liang to help.  Only in this way can we quickly stabilize the hearts of the scholars and people in Xiangyang and even Jingbei in a short period of time.

    And this is why Liu Feng personally came to visit Kuai Liang the day after he captured Xiangyang.

    Liu Feng did not?The relationship between the Kuai brothers is directly pointed out, but the implication is already very clear, that is, I, Liu Feng, know all about the internal strife of your Kuai family.

    Kuai Liang¡¯s expression calmed down, and he seemed to be stuck in a decision.

    Liu Feng knew that his mind was moved, so he went further: "I know that Sir has a heart of benevolence and righteousness to relieve the suffering of the people, and I also have the ambition to help others. As a leader of the Kuai family, even if he is  Not for yourself, but also for the future of the Kuai family."

    Liu Feng¡¯s words contained a hint of threat.

    Now Liu Feng has captured Xiangyang, Cao Ren was defeated and captured, and no one in the entire Jingzhou is his opponent. The complete capture of Jingxiang is a certainty, and the Kuai family is rooted in Xiangyang. When Xiangyang changes its owner, it is natural that it must  Think about the interests of the family.

    As the second-ranking figure in the Kuai family, Kuai Liang must work hard to preserve the interests of the family no matter what.

    After pondering for a long time, Kuai Liang stood up, cupped his hands and said silently: "I am willing to do the hard work of dogs and horses for General Liu.".
