My father-in-law Guan Yu, I persuaded Liu Bei to launch a surprise attack on Xiangyang at the beginn

Chapter 4 If you don’t cling to Liu Bei, you will be struck by lightning!

"Yinping, don't be reckless!"

Liu Bei stopped his niece and said with a wry smile:
"If Brother Jingsheng didn't trust me, why would he let me guard Fancheng?"

"Even if he really wanted to place a spy next to me, he could have done it quietly. Why would he go to such great lengths and use you, Yinping, to arrange for such a 'weirdo'?"

Guan Yinping stopped and turned her bright eyes around.

Strange clothes, mysterious origins, and covered with "immortal objects"...

Sending such a conspicuous person as a spy does not seem to be in line with Liu Biao's intelligence.

"Then who is this Xiao He?"

Zhang Fei was scratching his head and looked anxious.

"Didn't Mr. Xiao say that he was a disciple of a hermit and noble scholar, and had lived in seclusion in the mountains since childhood?"

Liu Bei smiled disapprovingly and waved his hand slightly:

"Alright, you all don't have to be so suspicious. I think that although Mr. Xiao has a mysterious background and his behavior is a bit strange, he is not someone with ulterior motives."

"Even if his predictions turn out to be false, it won't be a big loss for us."

"If he wants to stay, I will treat him with courtesy. If he wants to leave, I will give him some money and send him off with courtesy."

Liu Bei expressed his opinion, and Guan and Zhang looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

Guan Yinping naturally didn't dare to act rashly, and she loosened the hilt of the sword while mumbling something.

"My lord, you are respectful to the virtuous and humble, and treat everyone with sincerity. You truly emulate the spirit of our great-grandfather."

Zhuge Liang saluted and praised, then changed the subject:
"But regardless of whether Xiao He's prediction is true or not, with Cao Cao now marching south, Jingzhou is about to undergo a dramatic change."

"My lord, we must prepare for a rainy day and make plans early."

Liu Bei became alert and pulled Zhuge Liang to the main hall to discuss a plan to resist Cao Cao.

Before leaving.

Liu Bei suddenly thought of something and turned back to say:
"Yinping, you rescued Xiao Bowen, so I'll leave him in your care."

"Remember, treat each other with courtesy and don't be disrespectful."

Guan Yinping was stunned, and when she wanted to refuse, Liu Bei had already turned and left.

"Uncle, what a fool! Why did he ask me to look after him? If I had known it would be so troublesome, I wouldn't have rescued him..."

Guan Yinping muttered to herself and complained, her bright eyes secretly looking into the room through the crack in the door.

At this time, Xiao He had eaten and drunk his fill, and was leisurely drinking soup and tea, enjoying the comfort after eating and drinking.

A handsome face is entering Guan Yinping's sight.

"This guy is a bit weird, but he has a good appearance..."

...

“Comfortable~~”

Xiao He touched his full stomach and burped several times, enjoying the long-lost comfort after a full meal.

After filling your stomach, it’s time to plan for the future.

As a homeless person who is unfamiliar with the place, I must find a big, strong leg to hold on to.

Originally, since you were closest to Xuchang when you first traveled through time, it would be most reasonable for you to surrender to Cao Cao.

Unfortunately, he ran into a group of Cao's army guards who had never seen the world. They thought he was a madman and drove him away. He suffered a lot and almost starved to death in the deep mountains and forests.

It is definitely impossible to surrender to Cao.

As for Sun Quan, the King of Wu in the Great Wei…

Forget it, people should still have some integrity.

Then only Liu Bei is left.

No one is perfect. Liu Bei and Cao Cao each have their own strengths and weaknesses.

The key is that Liu Bei is kind to his subjects.

Xu Shu was forced to surrender to Cao Cao in order to save his mother, and Liu Bei parted ways amicably.

Mi Fang's surrender to Wu led to the loss of Jingzhou and indirectly caused the death of Guan Yu. However, Liu Bei did not vent his anger on Mi Zhu and continued to use Mi's children.

Huang Quan was forced to surrender to Wei, but Liu Bei still treated him with courtesy and provided generous support for his family.

Such a kind boss is hard to find even with a lantern. Following Liu Bei, even if I don’t expect to become rich and powerful in the future, I should be able to get a safe and secure place to live in peace in my old age.

You don't have to worry all day, wondering what you said wrong or what you did to make your boss suspicious.

It's not a pleasant experience to be with the king like being with a tiger.

Moreover, he was lucky enough to be rescued by Guan Yinping, and met Liu Bei by accident, and was treated with courtesy by Liu Bei.

This is God’s will!
If you don't take the opportunity to get Liu Bei's long-term meal ticket, aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?
Well, Liu Bei is firmly on my side!
There was a hint of determination in Xiao He's eyes.

However, if you follow Liu Bei, you must be prepared to suffer.

As Cao Cao's army was about to march south, Liu Cong surrendered to Cao, and Liu Bei was forced to cross the river and head south. On the way to Jiangling, he was caught up by Cao's army and almost wiped out.

After escaping death by many means, he managed to retreat to Jiangxia.

During this period, there should have been quite a few civil and military officials who died at the hands of Cao's cavalry.

If you follow Liu Bei, you must be mentally prepared to go through this disaster and walk through the gates of hell.

"Liu Bei has to take this meal ticket, but I only want to eat solid food, not bitter food..."

Xiao He sipped his tea and muttered to himself.

...

Three days later.

In the mansion hall, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang were gathered in front of a map to discuss strategies to defend against the enemy.

Footsteps were heard, and a counselor walked in with a serious expression.

"My lord, there is news about Yi Jibo."

"Liu Jingsheng passed away a few days ago!"

Jian Yong walked in shouting, holding up the silk book in his hand.

Liu Bei's body was shocked.

Zhuge Liang's expression changed slightly.

The brothers Guan Yu and Zhang Fei also showed a hint of surprise in their eyes.

Several people looked at each other quickly.

What Xiao Bowen said actually came true?

Liu Bei stepped forward and snatched the secret letter from Jian Yong's hand.

Zhuge Liang and the other two hurried forward.

When Liu Biao heard that Cao Cao was leading his troops south, he died of fright!

Cai Mao and Kuai Yue declared that they had followed Liu Biao's will and had supported his second son Liu Cong to inherit the position of governor and become the new master of Jingzhou!
It was written in black and white, Yi Ji wrote it clearly in the secret letter.

"Brother Jingsheng, we met a few months ago, and I didn't expect it would be the last time we met. Sigh..."

Liu Bei sighed deeply, a look of sadness and regret appearing on his face.

"Brother, that Xiao something and... no, that Mr. Xiao is truly amazing. His prediction came true!"

Zhang Fei's eyes widened, his face full of surprise.

His focus was obviously not on Liu Biao's death, but on Xiao He's "foresight".

"Such momentous news, Cai and Kuai would have surely kept it a secret. If it weren't for Yi Ji's presence in the provincial capital, my brother wouldn't have known of such a dramatic change in Xiangyang."

"This Xiao He is just a hermit in the mountains. How could he know such a confidential matter before us?"

Guan Yu stroked his beautiful beard and expressed his doubts.

Zhang Fei took a deep breath and exclaimed:
"Could it be that he really has learned from an otherworldly immortal and acquired the ability to predict the future?"

The two brothers Guan and Zhang turned to Zhuge Liang at the same time, hoping to seek an explanation from this Sleeping Dragon.

"I've always kept my distance from the idea of ​​ghosts and gods, so I'm not going to make any rash judgments."

Zhuge Liang remained silent, but his eyes showed a hint of admiration. He then changed the subject:
"However, it is an indisputable fact that Xiao Bowen deduced that Liu Jingsheng died of fright, and that Cai and Kuai supported Liu Cong as the new ruler of Jingzhou."

"No matter how he inferred it, it's clear that this person is extraordinary!"

"My lord, I think this man can be of use to you!"
