Chapter 104 Confrontation

,,,,,,,,,,,,

At dusk, in a servant's house in the front yard of Liu's mansion, Wang Cheng, who was lying on the bed, told Liu Biao intermittently the truth about the matter. Liu Jing stood aside, feeling a little nervous, wondering whether this killer move was effective.

If Liu Biao had known the truth long ago and just deliberately pretended to be deaf and dumb, he would have backfired. But then again, the Tao family still has value in using Liu Biao.

He did not believe that Liu Biao would cut off a source of wealth in Jingzhou for the sake of his nephew's selfish desires, especially the manor was strong and the self-cultivated farmers were declining. When the Jingzhou financial crisis occurred, the possibility of Liu Biao condoning his nephew was even lower.

Liu Jing believed that this killer move would anger Liu Biao, so he kept observing the change in expression on Liu Biao's face.

On the bed, Wang Cheng's injuries were still very serious, but Liu Jing could no longer delay. If time was delayed, once the situation was unfavorable to Zhang Yun, serious consequences of killing and silence. Only by sending surprise troops can one kill be fatal when Zhang Yun was most unprepared.

The expression on Liu Biao's face was first shocked, then anger that was indescribable aroused. He clenched his fists and his eyes were as cold as ice. After a while, he turned around and ordered: "Take the confession from my study."

A guard ran away, and soon after, he sent a thick stack of confessions. This was the confession of everyone in the Tao family case. Liu Biao flipped through it a little and found Wang Cheng's confession.

He looked at it and did make a confession as a guy Tao, admitting that he was carrying the weapons onto the ship. Of course, under the order of the Tao family manager, there were his fingerprints and a ball of bright red thumb fingerprints.

"Press him fingerprints"

Two guards stepped forward and pressed Wang Cheng's thumb on his confession again. Liu Jing next to him suddenly felt something. If he killed someone in the future, he would even cut off this finger so that there would be no loopholes.

The guard handed the confession to Liu Biao. Liu Biao squinted his eyes and looked at it. There was a new red fingerprint under the fingerprint. The two fingerprints were exactly the same, and they were the same person.

Liu Biao's face changed drastically. He had confirmed that Wang Cheng was Zhang Yun's personal soldier, Bo Chang, and his real name was He Zhen. At this time, he became a key figure in the Tao family case, and the truth was suddenly revealed.

"Come with me"

Liu Biao strongly restrained his anger, which was like a flood about to burst. Zhang Yun and Cai Mao dared to bully him like this. For Liu Biao, Jingzhou was his territory, and this was the crime of deceiving the king. Liu Biao turned around and walked quickly towards the study, and Liu Jing followed quickly.

He followed Liu Biao and felt the anger of Liu Biao's about to explode.

Back in the study, Liu Biao stood in front of the window with his hands on his back, staring at the apricot tree in the yard, and said nothing for a long time. The banner above his head had two words written on it, making him angry.

He needs to think about it and to sort out the causes and consequences in his mind. This must be Zhang Yun recruiting the Qu Department, and he has no money and food in his hands, so he has the idea of ​​the Tao family and wants to make a huge fortune from the Tao family. Then frame-up is the best way.

"Why do you want to help the Tao family?"

Liu Biao turned around slowly and glanced at Liu Jing who was standing with his hands down. This was his question, how could Liu Jing have a relationship with the Tao family.

Before holding Zhang Yun accountable, he must resolve all the doubts in his heart.

Liu Jing had a vain case for this problem, so he bowed and said calmly: "Report to my uncle, my nephew met Tao family Tao Zheng when he went to Jiangxia last time. Later, he knew that I was the governor of Youjiao, and he was as flattering as me. Just yesterday afternoon, he came to find me and said that a fleet of the Tao family was missing. He begged me to help find it, and my nephew intervened in the matter."

"Then what?" Liu Biao looked at Liu Jing and quickly judged the authenticity of his nephew's words in his heart, which should be true.

"Then my nephew found the old colleague of Youjiao and learned about what happened last night. Someone knew the prison guards in the water army camp, so my nephew asked them."

“Is that much?”

“There’s a little more.”

Liu Jing added: "This afternoon, my nephew went to find Kuai Gong and asked him for help."

A doubt in Liu Biao's heart was quietly resolved. No wonder Kuai Yue suddenly ran to talk about this matter in the afternoon. He was a little surprised. How could Kuai Yue know about this? It turned out to be because of his nephew.

Liu Biao nodded. He was very satisfied with Liu Jing's honesty. As a superior, no matter what the people below do, as long as they are not excessive, he can tolerate it. However, it is the deception of the people below.

This is the reason why Liu Jing is his nephew. He had a relationship with You Jiao in secret and asked Kuai Yue for help. These are all small problems. The key is that his nephew cannot deceive himself. Liu Biao attaches great importance to the word "integrity".

Compared to Liu Jing's honesty, Zhang Yun's deception was particularly dazzling. He could even tolerate Zhang Yun's frame-up of the Tao family and tolerate his slander of the Tao family, but he could never tolerate his deception of himself.

This has violated his Liu Biao's bottom line. No matter who he is, even his own son, as long as he violates his bottom line, no one will forgive him.

The dam of anger in Liu Biao's heart finally collapsed, and the flooded anger rages like a flood. He shouted loudly, "Comeone comes"

A guard walked in and knelt down on one knee: "Please give orders from the state governor."

"Go and find Zhang Yun for me immediately."

"As for orders" the guards quickly walked out.

Liu Biao paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, his pace was rapid, showing his anxiety in his heart. At this time, Liu Biao remembered Cai Mao and all the defenses of Cai Mao to Zhang Yun.

I'm afraid Cai Mao was involved in this matter, and even his planner. Liu Biao's fists were sometimes tightened and sometimes let go. After thinking for a long time, he finally locked Cai Mao in a corner of his mind. He didn't want to make things worse, so Cai Mao let it go for the time being.

In fact, Liu Biao was angry with Zhang Yun because it was not as simple as Zhang Yun's Tao family, nor was it just Zhang Yun's deception to him, which made him feel a little angry about being fooled. The real reason was that Zhang Yun and Cai Mao had formed an alliance, which had long been unbearable.

Yes, I couldn't bear it anymore. Since he learned that Zhang Yun had secretly formed an alliance with Cai Mao, his dissatisfaction has taken root in his heart.

Liu Biao glanced at Liu Jing again. This nephew was silent for a month, but it was impressive when he appeared. Zhang Yun's painstaking frame-up plan seemed to be clear. He even deceived himself, but was easily broken by his nephew. This ability made Liu Biao admire him.

Moreover, Liu Jing performed outstandingly in Xinye in the Battle of Xinye, which particularly satisfies Liu Biao. After listening to Huang Zhong’s report at noon, Liu Jing had already begun to follow Huang Zhongwu, and this was a good start.

Liu Biao secretly praised Liu Jing, but he didn't know that in this Tao family case, the latter was not Liu Jing's ability or luck, but Cao Cao's power stationed in Jingzhou.

But no matter what, Liu Biao has gradually begun to put high hopes on his nephew. Now the situation of the power in Jingxiang is unclear, so he wants to vigorously cultivate the Liu brother. If Jing'er can stand out within two years, he may become his most capable younger soldier.

Liu Biao thought to himself: After this matter is over, it is necessary to let my nephew go to Chaisang to appease the Tao family. After all, the Tao family provides a large amount of money and food every year, which is an important source of wealth and should not be lost.

Liu Jing stood with his hands down, looking calm on the outside, but he was thinking quickly in his heart. Judging from Liu Biao's attitude, I'm afraid Zhang Yun will not be able to take over this time. If Zhang Yun is suppressed, then who will take over as the post of the Navy Captain? Will it be Wang Wei?

Liu Jing has gradually seen Liu Biao's intention. No matter who takes over as the navy captain, Liu Biao will definitely take this opportunity to remove the influence of the Jingzhou family in the army.

Liu Jing suddenly had an enlightenment. Zhang Yun was demoted this time, probably because he and Cai Mao had angered Liu Biao. Indeed, Zhang Yun was Liu Biao's nephew, and should have been a person worthy of his trust and was able to hold the power of the navy.

He should be loyal to Liu Biao and had a deep relationship with the aristocratic family, but he was stuck in the door and ran to form an alliance with Cai Mao. In this way, is Liu Biao still assured to let him take charge of the navy?

Perhaps Liu Biao couldn't find his handle for a while, but now he has delivered it to him by himself. It can only be said that Zhang Yun is a self-destructive person and cannot survive.

Soon, a burst of rapid footsteps came from outside, followed by Zhang Yun's voice, "Nephew Zhang Yun, please see your uncle."

"Come in"

Liu Biao's voice was very calm, which made Zhang Yun feel a little relieved. He was thinking about how to end the Tao family's weapons trafficking case as soon as possible, that is, get money from the Tao family as soon as possible.

Although he temporarily stabilized his uncle, Kuai Yue had already intervened in the matter, and the longer the time it took, the more unfavorable it would be to him.

Especially the Tao family, they are likely to refuse to pay the money because of Kuai Yue's intervention. In fact, Zhang Yun had already thought of the quickest way to resolve the Tao family case, which was to capture Taoli's niece, Tao Sheng's daughter. As long as she fell into his hands, Taoli would immediately surrender.

He had sent people to search for the daughter of the Tao family everywhere, but found nothing. But just now, from a manager named Li, he learned that the daughter of the Tao family had close relationships with Liu Jing, so would she hide in Liu Jing?

Zhang Yun also received news that Liu Jing sent Yu soldiers to guard his house, which was actually equivalent to telling himself that the daughter of the Tao might be hiding in Liu Jing's house.

Just as Zhang Yun was about to take action, his uncle Liu Biao sent someone to find him.

Zhang Yun walked into Liu Biao's study, but looked at Liu Jing with eyes. His heart thumped, why is Liu Jing here?

Zhang Yun felt a sense of badness in his heart. Perhaps the last time that You Jiao happened was unforgettable. He always had an indescribable fear of Liu Jing, and tried not to provoke this disaster star.

This time the Tao family case should have nothing to do with him, but now Zhang Yun knows that the Tao family case is still related to Liu Jing, and the Tao family's daughter is likely to be hidden by Liu Jing.

Zhang Yun was still worried that he might have been involved in Liu Jing again this time, but the situation in front of him told him that Liu Jing might have been involved.

Zhang Yun didn't even think too much, so he knelt down and kowtowed, "Nephew Zhang Yun to meet his uncle."

"Get up"

Liu Biao's face was plain and there was no sign of any joy or anger. Zhang Yun stood up uneasy and glanced at Liu Jing quickly as he lowered his head.

However, Liu Jing was like a mud god standing there, motionless, with no expression on his face, and he didn't even call him.

Zhang Yun swallowed dryly, waiting for Liu Biao's question. After a while, Liu Biao asked slowly: "How was the Tao family's affairs handled? Did Tao Li put it back?"

Of course, Tao Li was not released, and was still imprisoned in the water camp. Zhang Yun wanted to delay for two days and waited for the Tao family to surrender before letting him go, but Liu Biao actually asked again.

Zhang Yun turned his mind and wiped the sweat from his forehead, whispering: "My nephew has already given instructions. I don't know if I have let it go. I don't know if I have it. I will urge you after I go back."

Liu Biao nodded, and did not ask at this time, he said lightly: "Jing'er just told me that the Tao family case was framed by you, and the purpose was to make money from the Tao family. Is that true?"

This was the last chance that Liu Biao gave Zhang Yun. Zhang Yun was shocked and jumped wildly. Did he reveal his mistake? What loophole was caught by Liu Jing? It was impossible. This matter was full of evidence and evidence. All those who should silence him. Liu Jing couldn't catch any handle, he was just guessing.

Zhang Yun immediately turned around and stared at Liu Jing, shouting with a sarcastic sarcasm: "Mr. Jing is simply nonsense. I loyally protect Jingzhou and will never give any opportunity to take advantage of it. How could I frame it? Duke Jing, you are still holding a grudge against the last incident."

Liu Jing smiled, "Now my uncle is asking you, what are you yelling at me?"
