Liu Cong's hands were trembling.

The long sword on the wooden board shines in the light.

Liu Biao's eyes changed.

Everything seemed to be frozen at this moment, with only the sound of wind whizzing by outside the hall, making a sound like a strange laughter.

Liu Biao's eyes were eager at the beginning, then gradually became cooler with the sound of the wind, and then cooled down little by little.

"Okay!" Liu Biao saw that Liu Cong was hesitant to take the sword. Although he had expected such a result, he was a little disappointed when he saw such a situation. If Liu Cong dared to take the sword, it would be enough to make Liu Biao

He was a little relieved, but now, Liu Biao didn't know what it felt like.

My own son...

ε=(′ο｀*)))Alas!

Liu Biao reached out, picked up the long sword, and slowly put it into the scabbard.

"The gentleman's sword has benevolence as its sheath, and the killing is inside!" Liu Biao handed the long sword to Liu Cong with its scabbard, "Benevolence and virtue alone are empty... You don't have enough murderous intention, hey... if that's the case...

When the matter is over, you have to go to the army to experience a thing or two..."

"In the army?" Liu Cong obviously has not fully recovered from the shock just now, and his thinking has not kept up.

Liu Biao nodded and said: "Gan Ning, Gan Xingba, loyal and admirable, enough for a big job..."

While he was talking, soldiers suddenly rushed towards him.

"Report! General Gan captured Caizhou!"

"Good!" Liu Biao raised his brows, his joy overflowing from his expression, "Have you ever captured and killed the traitor Cai?"

"Lord, Caizhou is empty. There are only a few people from the Cai clan, and there is no trace of the rest..." The soldier lowered his head and reported, "General Gan suspects that he escaped by water. May I ask, my lord, whether to pursue or..."

"What? Escaped? Huh, you really did it carefully..." Liu Biao frowned.

Caizhou is not a household, but the headquarters of the Cai family. To transport so many people and artifacts, it is not something that two or three small fishing boats can do. And the naval force in Jingzhou is now in the hands of Liu Biao. This is why Gan

Ning Cai asked if he wanted to pursue...

Liu Biao pondered for a long time and said: "Send the order! Retreat the troops! Order General Gan to return to Xiangyang and garrison on guard! I have other arrangements regarding the Cai family!"

The soldiers responded loudly and immediately ran out again.

In the hall, candlelight flickered.

Liu Biao turned to look at Liu Cong, "What do you think about this matter?"

Liu Cong took a breath, thought for a long time, and then said hesitantly: "Cai... escaped... is there any back-up plan?"

"Well, where do you think the backup plan is?" Liu Biao asked.

"Backhand..." Liu Cong stumbled, "This...backhand..."

Liu Biao closed his eyes, "I originally thought that the Cai family's back-up man was either a hussar or a Cao family...but I didn't expect...it was really..."

"Father..." Liu Cong didn't understand the meaning.

Liu Biao sighed and said: "There are thieves in the courtyard. If they want money, they will take gold and silver. But there are still many thieves. Before leaving, they set a fire...why?"

"Destroy traces? Cover up crimes?" Liu Cong said.

"This is one of them..." Liu Biao said slowly, "The more are...what you can't take away, others shouldn't want...Cai...she is so cruel...such vicious methods...

……(〒︿〒)……

Liu Biao was not the only one talking about means.

Chang'an.

No matter how turbulent and noisy Jingzhou is, for the Sanfu area of ​​Chang'an, which is separated by Wuguan, it seems like mountains far away in the horizon. It seems to have some influence, but it seems not to have that much influence.

Jingzhou is a quagmire, and the interests of various noble families are complicated and confusing. Unless we cut through the mess with a sharp knife, we have to straighten it out one by one. I'm afraid it won't be a year and a month.

This is also one of the reasons why Fei Qian has not been optimistic about Jingzhou and is even reluctant to set foot in Jingzhou. Of course, Fei Qian's origin in Jingzhou is also part of the reason. After all, even though it is not easy to level a bowl of water, it is at least better than to level a bowl of water.

Ten bowls or twenty bowls of water should be kept simple?

Fei Qian and Pang Tong discussed for a long time, and finally felt that there was no need to risk taking part in Jingzhou's interference. Although Xu Huang and Liao Hua came out of Wuguan, Huang Zhong cooperated, and Wancheng was the advance base, it was not a big deal to capture Xiangyang.

It's a very difficult thing, but it's not easy either.

The most important thing is still the problem that I worried about before, how to face the Jingzhou gentry?

Sorting things out slowly, Fei Qian really doesn't have that spare time, but if everything is done across the board, sooner or later there will be chaos, and the original friendship between Jingzhou and Xiang will be broken. Therefore, it is better to express directly that you Jingzhou people will handle the affairs of Jingzhou yourself.

Although there are a lot of benefits missing, there are also a lot of things missing.

These two items are originally equivalent.

They only want to take advantage and gain benefits, but they don’t want to take responsibility for anything or be responsible. I’m afraid only those derelict apes can do it with confidence...

What's more, Cao Cao's troops and horses don't know where they are hiding, so rashly sending troops to Wuguan is not a good choice.

Fei Qian was thinking about things in his mind. He was naturally not so focused on the chessboard, and he casually placed a piece.

Guo Jia, who was on the other side of the chessboard, frowned.

"The general has a good trick... However, there are changes before the move is made." Guo Jia picked up a chess piece and slapped it into the chessboard. He glanced at Fei Qian, his face was somewhat heavy, "After the move, it is difficult to regret!"

Fei Qian pretended to be stupid, "The words of filial piety are very reasonable..."

On the chessboard, black and white are separated from each other, each occupying a corner of one side, but in the central area, there is no sign of fighting...

Guo Jia suddenly came to the door and said that he was addicted to chess and wanted to have a game with Fei Qian. Naturally, Fei Qian did not refuse.

This is obviously an excuse.

After all, if Guo Jia wants to say that he is addicted to alcohol, Fei Qian still believes it, is he addicted to chess...

At first, Fei Qian thought that Guo Jia came because of the incident in Jingzhou, but it turned out that it was not because of this incident. Guo Jia may not have received any news about the incident in Jingzhou. During the conversation, Guo Jia revealed that it was

I came here for the "Law of Loan Order". After all, this matter was so hotly debated that even Guo Jia, who was trying to practice in seclusion, couldn't help but hear about it.

Strictly speaking, Guo Jia was also a victim of class consolidation among the gentry, and he scorned the so-called hierarchical system. However, Guo Jia did not have much desire to resist, and more often used to anesthetize himself, just like Jin.

Like those noblemen in the imperial dynasty, although they knew there was a problem, they could not solve it, so they just indulged themselves and anesthetized themselves to avoid the problem.

This is also one of the reasons why Guo Jia neither resisted nor cooperated with Feiqian.

Deep in Guo Jia's heart, he understood that Fei Qian's approach might be right, but he was not very sure, so that after tossing and turning for a few days, he couldn't sit still anymore, so he came to Fei Qian.

"Hand Talk".

Guo Jia slapped another piece on the chessboard, "General, this move seems to be stuck, but in fact it is short of breath... I am afraid that there are not enough eye positions and it will be difficult to survive..."

Fei Qian continued to play dumb, "Ah, what Fengxiao said...well, it's really, really..."

Guo Jia stared at Fei Qian for a moment, feeling a little suffocated. He simply grabbed a handful of chess pieces and threw them on the chessboard, "Since the general has no intention of doing this, I will just take my leave!"

Fei Qian laughed, pushed away the chessboard and said, "It's okay if you don't play! However, Fengxiao will stay for a while... and come with me..."

Really, if you want to say something, just say it, what kind of "hand talk"...

Well, of course, Fei Qian would never admit that it was because his level of playing chess was so poor that he was targeted by Guo Jia everywhere on the chessboard, and there was no point in playing chess. Playing chess also requires some talent, and very few

Obviously, Fei Qian has no talent in this area.

It's just that Fei Potential understood what Guo Jia meant.

Guo Jia wanted to warn Fei Qian by playing chess, but he was too embarrassed to speak directly.

Fei Qian walked forward slowly, suddenly stretched out his hand and said to Guo Jia, "Has Fengxiao ever paid attention to these tiles around him?"

"Wadang?" Guo Jia was stunned and turned around to look. He only saw round green tiles arranged neatly at the eaves, like a row of soldiers waiting to go into battle, and like beads connected in series.

Together

Wadang refers to the shield covering the front end of the eaves of the building in Chinese architecture.

Qin bricks and Han tiles, the word Han tiles, at least half of them belong to tiles.

"General...what does this mean?" Guo Jia was a little confused.

Fei Qian raised his chin slightly, "Look..."

Wadang was first made in the middle and late Western Zhou Dynasty. It was first made into a cylindrical pottery blank, and then the blank was cut into pieces and fired in the kiln. The four or six sections were cut into slab tiles, and the opposite sections were cut into tube tiles.

The tiles really began to appear, around the late Spring and Autumn Period. At first, the decorations were mostly animal face patterns, and later they generally developed into cirrus patterns.

Gray pottery tiles are the oldest tiles. After the Tang Dynasty, glazed tiles appeared in colors such as blue, green, blue, yellow, etc., which were generally used in higher-level buildings. During the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, metal tiles appeared. Among them,

The tiles of the Han Dynasty were the most outstanding.

The tiles of the Han Dynasty have a characteristic that is not found in other dynasties, that is, there are more tiles with characters, especially in the Sanfu area of ​​​​Guanzhong.

What Fei Qian showed Guo Jia was these tiles.

Walking out of the General Office, except for the words "Han Hussars" or "Fei", which indicates a public residence or private property, most of the rest can be divided into several categories. One is

The tiles with the word "Qianqiu", such as "Qianqiu will benefit you", "Qianqiu will live forever", "Qianqiu will live forever", "Qianqiu will live forever" and so on.
