Liu Jing has been in this era for half a year and has experienced many official disputes. Whether it is Cai Mao's plot or Zhang Yun's Ming fight, they are more or less afraid of his identity as the nephew of the governor of the state and dare not do too much.

It’s not that Liu Jing relies on this identity, but that this has always been a bottom line in the Jingzhou officialdom, which is Liu Biao’s power.

Under this bottom line, some people can use Cao Cao's hands to kill him, and some people can use various competitions to teach him a lesson, but none of them are publicly clamoring to kill himself like Huang Yong today.

And he did what he said, carrying two short halberds and rushed over, completely crushing Liu Biao's authority and the bottom line of the Jingzhou officialdom.

Of course, Huang Zu could use his son's reckless impulse to be trapped by love, and he was unable to teach himself, but this could not explain the fact that Huang Yong was checking the sky at the Chaisang Wharf.

It can only be said that Huang Zu already knew the task of coming to Jiangxia. In order to protect his vital interests, he did not hesitate to let his Er come forward to take action.

Huang Yong was fast and rushed to dozens of steps in a moment, and he could see clearly his appearance.

Huang Yong was about twenty years old and was not tall, only seven feet and five feet long, but his shoulders were wide and wide, his head was as big as a bucket, and his head was covered with looseness. He looked like a lion tortured by hunger, with a big head and small body, and a bit deformed.

Huang Yong just heard that the Tao family manager took two ships to the east, and he immediately guessed that this was going to the Tao family's old wharf, and no other ships went, why did these two ships go? Could it be that Liu Jing was here?

The rage of revenge was burning in his chest, and he led his troops to fight desperately.

Of course Huang Yong had the idea of ​​avenging his brother, but more importantly, his brother told him that Tao Zhan had fallen in love with Liu Jing and he saw them sitting on the same bed with his own eyes.

This news was enough to make Huang Yong crazy. He had long regarded Tao Zhan as his woman, and no one could get involved, even Liu Biao's son would not be sure.

At this time, Huang Yong stared at Liu Jing like a hungry lion, with a low sound of beasts from time to time in his throat, holding the iron halberd tightly with his hands and trembling all over.

He suddenly shouted: "Liu Jing, get out of the boat."

But Liu Jing ignored him and sneered disdainfully.

He also heard that Huang Yong's martial arts were far above his brother Huang She, and he was a famous general in the Jiangxia army. However, he had a bad temper and did not speak well. He started to act ruthlessly and showed no mercy. There were countless people who died at his hands.

He could see this that Huang Yong held two iron halberds in his hand, and they were the same weapons as Dian Wei and Gan Ning, each iron halberd weighed at least ten kilograms.

Liu Jing has experienced Huang She’s martial arts, which is slightly higher than himself. Wouldn’t Huang Yong’s martial arts be much higher than himself.

Although he knew that he was not a match for this person, Liu Jing was not panicked. He held his hands behind his back and looked coldly at Huang Yong who was dozens of steps away.

Of course, Liu Jing would not get off the boat and fight with Huang Yong. He didn't want to die at the hands of this idiot, but he couldn't do it even if he wanted him to escape in panic.

He could only bet based on his judgment of the current situation.

Liu Jing didn't believe that Huang Zu would let him kill himself. In that case, he and Liu Biao could not maintain the minimum superficial relationship and would face war directly. In addition, there was also the Jiangdong Army's side of the tiger's eyes.

Huang Zu had a feud with Jiangdong, and he could not surrender to Jiangdong. Huang Zu would not be so stupid as to this journey. The situation was still unclear, so he put himself to death first.

If Huang Zu really wants to kill himself, he doesn't need to let his elders come forward and order his subordinates to pretend to be and kill him secretly on the river surface. Wouldn't he be cleared of Huang Zu's relationship?

But Huang Zu did not send anyone to intercept him on the river, which shows that he did not want to break up with Liu Biao. He just planned to let his son teach him a lesson and give him a warning.

So how could Huang Zu stop this stupid son in time? Isn’t he afraid that he will kill him accidentally?

Liu Jing has already appeared, and a large ship is mooring not far away. He hasn't seen it just now, but now it has appeared unknowingly. Liu Jing can conclude that Huang Zu must be on this ship.

With this present, Liu Jing's heart also let go. He walked forward and shouted to the big ship: "Huang Shou, is this your way of hospitality?"

Everyone looked at the big ship, and even Huang Yong was stunned, with doubts in his eyes. Could it be that his father was on this ship, how could Liu Jing know?

At this time, the curtain on the boat lifted up, and a middle-aged man in a brocade robe walked out from inside. His head was as big as a bucket and his face was like a pumpkin. It was Jiang Xia's guard Huang Zu.

His face was a little embarrassed. Unexpectedly, Liu Jing guessed that he was on this ship, which made him feel very passive, because it showed that Liu Jing had seen through his thoughts.

Huang Zu really doesn't want his son to really kill Liu Jing. Now Liu Biao just lets his nephew control Jiangxia with him. Even the struggle has not begun yet. The strong dragon may not be able to defeat the local snake.

It is still unknown who wins and loses in the end. Huang Zu’s biggest wish is to maintain the status quo, and to receive the support of Liu Biao’s money and food, while also enjoying the benefits of military independence. Why not do it?

That's right, Huang Zu didn't want to break up with Liu Biao, at least he wouldn't do this until the last moment.

He just wanted to teach Liu Jing a lesson and give Liu Jing a warning, but Huang Zu was worried that his subordinates would be of no importance and that would be bad if he really killed Liu Jing.

So Huang Zu also rushed to the old dock of Tao's family and hid in the boat. He just waited for the humiliation of Liu Jing to almost end. He came out to stop him, but he didn't expect that Liu Jing had guessed that he was on the boat.

Huang Zu laughed dryly and bowed, "I heard that Mr. Jing has arrived, and I was afraid that the dog would be rude, so I came here, which scared Mr. Jing."

Liu Jing smiled faintly, "Thank you Huang Shou for your concern, but I can't get off the boat now, and I'm unarmed and fighting with the son. What do you think I should do? Huang Shou?"

Huang Zu glared at his eyes and cursed Huang Yong, "Beast, if I am not careful, you will cause a big disaster for me. Why don't you get out of here?"

Huang Yong was so angry that he was scolded by his father. He hated him so much that his teeth were about to bite him off. The jealousy in his heart made him so crazy that he finally lost his mind. He suddenly threw a short halberd at Liu Jing, "Go to die."

Liu Jing did not move, staring at the short halberd flying in from the thorn. He could see that Huang Yong was impatient and slightly tilted when he took action.

He snorted coldly, and the short halberd flew past his ear and inserted it heavily into the mast, causing exclamations from the people around him.

Even Huang Zu was so scared that his heart was about to jump out of his mind. He was immediately angry and embarrassed. He actually swept his face in public. He shouted, "Don't, kneel down for me."

Huang Yong ignored his father and stared at Liu Jing fiercely, "You are lucky."

He turned his horse's head and ran away, so angry that Huang Zu almost vomited blood. Liu Jing smiled slightly, "Huang Shou doesn't have to be angry. Every family has a difficult sutra. Sometimes the provincial governor also has a headache for Cong Gong."

Huang Zu sighed, "There is a rebellion in the family and life is unfortunate. If I hadn't come in time, I'm afraid this idiot would have caused a big disaster for me. When I go back, I have to teach him a good lesson and ask him to apologize to the official."

"Huang Shou is serious. I can understand the mood of the son. It is normal for young people to be crazy about love. It will be better if they pass this age."

Huang Zu couldn't speak for a long time. He wanted to excuse himself, but Liu Jing took the initiative to excuse him, and did not accuse him of committing crimes, nor did he want to sue the governor of the state.

Looking at Liu Jing's smiling look, Huang Zu felt nervous. He knew that he had met a strong enemy. He originally wanted to give Liu Jing a warning, but now it seems that Liu Jing gave him a warning.

The Tao family mansion is located in the northwest corner of Chaisang City, close to the Caohe River leading to the Yangtze River. It is a large mansion covering an acre of land, even twice as big as the county government. This is also Liu Biao's tacit consent. The Tao family master has the identity of a marquis of Ting, and can also enjoy the beauty of a huge house in politics.

The pottery house not only covers a huge area, but also is a castle-style house with a river of protection around it. The courtyard wall is strong and tall. It can be walked on it and connected with the outside world. It is close to a suspension bridge, like a city in the city.

In order to win over the Tao family, Liu Biao even gave Tao family a special power, which was to allow the Tao family to have five people, and to use crossbow arrows and long weapons publicly.

In fact, this is also a privilege that is not practical. It has been an open secret for wealthy families to own private armed groups, and bows and crossbows and long weapons are even more common among the people. The Tao family can only legally own troops and use prohibited weapons. No one can use this to make a secret against the Tao family.

However, the Tao family owned more than five private soldiers. The Tao family owned a crew of more than 1,500 passengers, most of whom were capable young and strong, and they received training to resist water thieves every year. In addition, the tenant slaves in the manor, once a war broke out, the Tao family could at least mobilize a thousand people to defend their homes. This was also the reason why the Tao family wanted to buy five army slaves from Ganning.

The Tao family has money and food, but the only thing they lack is people.

In addition, the Tao family has a huge industry in Jiangdong, which is not known to the people of Jingzhou, so that Tao Sheng can become Sun Quan's guest. This is also because Liu Biao was a little dissatisfied with the Tao family, so that in the case of Zhang Yun framed, Liu Biao showed a relatively ambiguous attitude.

Despite the huge family business, the Tao family has always been relatively weak in politics. Only one Tao family brother served as the county magistrate of the Public Security Bureau. For this reason, the Tao family could only seek protection from the wealthy family through marriage. The head of the family Tao Sheng married the daughter of the Huang family, and one of Tao Sheng's sisters married the Lu family of Jiangdong.

At the same time, in addition to paying taxes every year, the Tao family also has to provide a large amount of money and grain assistance to Liu Biao and the Sun family in Jiangdong, which has enabled the Tao family to stand firm in the complex southern situation.

However, some anger and bullying are inevitable. For example, Huang Yong injured the Tao family's housekeeper in order to seek the humiliation of Tao Zhan, and Zhang Yun framed the Tao family for profit, including Huang Yong's investigation of the wharf this time, harassing the Tao family's birthday guests, etc. These all show the weakness of the Tao family as a businessman. There is no other way except to endure it.

In the back hall of the Tao family, the protagonist of this birthday, Mr. Tao, was gathering with more than a dozen granddaughters and several great-grandchildren.

Mr. Tao's name is Tao Lie, who is about to be seventy years old. In the country, he was seventy years old enough to be an old man. Even if there were a few, most of them were old and old. However, Mr. Tao was energetic, full of red face, clear thinking, and very well maintained.

He also loves children, especially grandchildren and great-grandchildren, who spend nearly half of his time every day. Among these dozens of great-grandchildren, he has several children who love the most, one of them is Tao Zhan, who is proud of having such a beautiful granddaughter.

In two days, the master's seventyth birthday was, and Tao Lie was in a cheerful mood. What he cared most was whether the guests were satisfied with their stay and whether they were eating well. For this birthday party, the Tao family specially booked more than a dozen hostels, and more than a dozen taverns in Chaisang City were also converted to supply the Tao family.

"I heard that Huang Jiaci is causing trouble outside the city. Is there such a thing?"

Mr. Tao asked a little unhappy. This was a great-grandson who told him that Huang Yong was checking passenger ships on the dock, which made people panic. Tao Zhan, who was sitting next to his grandfather, suddenly turned pale. Of course, she knew that Huang Yong was checking Liu Jing because of herself. For this reason, she specially arranged for the chief supervisor to pick up Liu Jing. I don’t know if she had received it. She became a little worried and developed a deep resentment towards Huang Yong.

Tao Shengxun glanced at his daughter and bowed and said, "Report to my father, there is indeed such a matter. We have negotiated with Huang Zu continuously. I heard that it had been withdrawn just now."

Tao Zhan was stunned. Could it be that Liu Jing was here that Huang Yong retreated? The series of questions about whether Liu Jing had any problems made her feel more anxious. She wanted to run to the dock. Tao Zhan was a little restless and wanted to find an excuse to leave.

Mr. Tao felt his granddaughter's uneasiness and asked strangely: "Jiu Niang, are you uncomfortable?"

"Reporting to my grandfather, my granddaughter was a little dizzy and wanted to go back to my room to rest."

"Yeah, let's go."

Tao Zhan stood up and bowed to his grandfather and father, and then hurried away. Looking at his granddaughter walking away, Master Tao then said to Tao Sheng: "There are many distinguished guests this time. Not only is the Duke of the Palace Master Ci Cong coming, but the Kuai family, Cai family, and Pang family have nephews coming to celebrate their birthdays. They must make them come with satisfaction and return with satisfaction. Don't just treat it as a birthday. You should take advantage of this opportunity to expand the influence of the Tao family. Do you understand?"

Tao Sheng bowed and bowed, "Children understand, please rest assured, father."
