At night, the lights are bright in the prefecture.

In the middle of the hall, the atmosphere was warm.

Liu biaotan sat on the top, dressed in Chinese clothes, ruddy complexion and bright eyes. In the face of the crowd, the wrinkles on his face seemed to have dissipated a lot, and he was very energetic. As a matter of fact, after Liu Xiu's visit, Liu Biao had a ginseng tablet. It didn't take long. Under the stimulation of ginseng tablet, his depressed spirit recovered a lot.

Then, Liu Biao summoned his generals.

Jingzhou officials, big and small, gathered together.

Liu Biao held a banquet to celebrate Liu Xiu's return and show off in front of Jingzhou Wenwu. Liu Xiu went to Jiangdong, killed Lu Su, played tricks on Sun Quan, Zhou Yu and others, and made Jiangdong lose face. This is Liu Xiu's credit.

In the final analysis, Liu Xiu is Liu Biao's son, so this is the glory of Liu Biao and Jingzhou.

In this way, it is natural to have a banquet to celebrate.

Liu Biao, as the leader of Jingzhou, took the lead in speaking. In his modesty, he boasted about himself. After that, he raised his glass to drink with the public. Then, the civil and military generals in the lobby touted one after another. The target of touting not only covered Liu Xiu, but also took care of Liu Biao's emotions.

Liu Xiu sat in the hall, with a smile on his face. He was still neither humble nor overbearing.

No matter who comes to offer a toast, Liu Xiu will not refuse.

The atmosphere of the banquet is getting hotter and hotter.

After drinking a few glasses of wine, Liu Biao had a flush on his face. His eyes swept through the hall of talent, the heart of infinite pride and pride.

All this was created by Liu Biao.

Because of him, Jingzhou has been in Taiping for more than ten years.

Because of him, Jingzhou people and scholars enjoyed peace and were not affected by the war.

Liu Biao was full of pride in his chest, carrying a bottle of wine, and said again, "come on, drink. I'm old, and I don't drink as much as I did before. Today I can have a good drink with you, and I'm in a good mood

After hearing this, everyone drank.

Suddenly, in the hall, a civil servant stood up.

This man is eight feet long, about 30 years old, with red lips, white teeth and a face like jade. He has three short whiskers under his jaw. He has deep eyes, calm face and extraordinary bearing.

Liu Xiu knew this man. His name was Liu Xian. He was Liu Biao's BIE Jia. His official position was similar to that of Yi nationality.

Liu Xian's face, also a little more red. Standing in the lobby, he arched his hand and said, "Lord, I have a humble opinion, but I don't know whether to say it or not."

Liu Biao is in the mood, waving: "it's OK to say so."

Liu Xian said: "the Lord is in charge of Jingzhou, but he has never made a successor. Liu Qi, the eldest son, Liu Cong, the second son, and Liu Xiu, the third son, have all grown up. It's time to have a son. "

Once these words came out, the situation in the hall changed.

All of them look solemn.

In Jingzhou, Shizi is the most taboo topic. So far, Liu Biao has not considered who will inherit Jingzhou.

Liu first made the matter clear, and the conflict suddenly appeared.

Liu Biao's expression became very serious. He regained his consciousness and asked, "who is the most suitable person in Shizong's opinion?"

Liu Xian zhengse way: "humble position, should establish long.". Therefore, I think that we should make childe Qi the son of the world. "

In a word, it stirred up the emotions of CAI Mao, Zhang Yun and others.

Among the officials in the hall, the atmosphere became more dignified. Looking at Liu Xian one by one, they all looked puzzled. At this time, how did Liu Xian suddenly raise the topic of establishing a son of the world? This is clearly not the right time.

Kuai Yue glanced at Liu Xiu, and Liu Xiuwei shook his head.

Suddenly, Kuai understood.

In Kuai Yue's heart, he also had a plan and praised Liu Xiu for his calmness. Kuai Yue wants to ask Liu Xiu if he also proposes to establish Liu Xiu. Liu Xiu shakes his head and denies it. Obviously, he has no intention of making a breakthrough.

As a matter of fact, it is not appropriate for Liu Xiu to come out. From the beginning to the end, Liu Biao did not show his intention to let Liu Xiu be the son of the world. Once Kuai Yue puts it forward, it is easy for Liu Biao to reject Liu Xiu.

Yi Ji and Wen pin are sitting in the hall, paying attention to Liu Xiu's changes, and seeing the movements between Kuai Yue and Liu Xiu, they all understand each other.

Liu Biao's eyes slowly withdrew from Liu Xian.

Liu Biao said: "there is a certain truth in Shizong's proposal. Do you have any other opinions, gentlemen? "

Sitting in the hall, Liu Cong couldn't sit still with a needle on his buttocks. He looked at Cai Mao and motioned to him to open his mouth. Cai Mao knew that he had to make a clear gesture at this time. He stood up and said, "my Lord, I think we should set up a virtuous man and set up Cong as the son of the world."

In a word, Liu Cong was pushed out.

Zhang Yun stood up and echoed: "Lord, Cong is loyal and filial, and his ability is outstanding. As the son of Jingzhou, he will certainly be able to take on a great responsibility. "

As soon as Zhang Yun's words were finished, another person came out of the hall. He was a distinguished man, Fu Xun, a guest of Liu Biao. He looked calm and said: "since ancient times, for the sake of long-term peace and stability, they are all Li di. Mr. Qi is not only his own son, but also his eldest son. I think that Mr. Qi should be registered. In this way, Jingzhou will have long-term stability. "After Liu Cong heard this, there was a fierce light in his eyes, but Fu Xun turned a blind eye to it.

As Fu Xun opened his mouth, the generals of Wen, Chen and Wu spoke one after another in the hall and chose their own camp.

Yi Ji and Kuai Yue kept their mouth shut and never spoke.

Some neutral officials also sat quietly.

Liu Xiu looked at the official arguments in the hall, especially the insistence of Liu Xian and Fu Xun, and felt sorry for Liu Qi. So many people are on Liu Qi's side. Unfortunately, Liu Qi can't take it for his own use.

Liu Biao sat at the top and asked again, "do you have another opinion, gentlemen?"

When he spoke, he took a look at Liu Xiu.

However, both Yi Ji and Kuai Yue did not speak.

Liu Biao suddenly asked, "Xiuer, what do you think?"

In a word, Liu Xiu was involved.

Liu Xiu was also very surprised. He didn't expect Liu Biao to ask for his opinions.

Liu Xiu stood up and said without hesitation: "my son doesn't know how to choose when I set up my son. The elder brother is kind and filial, and the second brother has outstanding ability. They are all good candidates. The son thinks that no matter who the father chooses as his son, the son will obey his father's decision and his arrangement. "

With these words, Liu Biao's eyes showed appreciation.

After hearing this, Yi Ji and Kuai Yue also appreciated it, which was undoubtedly the most appropriate. The older Liu Biao was, the more he grasped power and the more he was afraid of his son. At this time, anxious to be a son of the world, but caused Liu Biao's fear.

Liu Biao turned his eyes and said, "Uncle Ji, what do you think of the event of establishing a son of the world?"

Yi Ji said with a smile: "I will obey the Lord's advice."

Liu Biao looked at Kuai Yue again and asked, "what do you think of Yidu?"

Kuai Yue replied, "it's a matter of great importance for Jingzhou to establish a son, but it's also a matter of the Lord's family. Therefore, I think that whoever the LORD chooses is the one. The most important thing is that Mr. Qi and Mr. Cong are both good. They are not bad at choosing anyone. It's all up to the Lord. "

In a word, he kicked the ball back.

At the same time, Kuai Yue put Liu Biao first, and Liu Biao was more comfortable.

Looking at the officials under his command, he said in a deep voice: "it's very good that all of you are concerned about the future of Jingzhou, but I'm also weighing whether to choose Qi'er, Cong'er or Xiu'er. I'll give you a reply after I think it over. "

After hearing this, the officials stopped arguing.

However, the way they look at Liu Xiu has a different meaning.

Liu Biao openly put Liu Xiu into the scope of choice, which means that Liu Xiu can compete for the position of son of the world. It was thought that Liu Xiu was a commoner and difficult to participate. With Liu Biao, the situation is different.

Liu Xiu smiles in his heart. Liu Biao's words give him room to operate.

Because of Liu Xian's disturbance, even after the party was restored, the atmosphere became warm again. However, everyone seemed to have something on their mind. On the surface, they talked and laughed happily, but each had his own thoughts.

After the banquet, they left separately.

Liu Xiu dragged his tired body back to his yard.
