After Cai Shaoyu and Liu Cong got married, they lived in the inner house of Liu's mansion, a separate courtyard. This so-called courtyard covers an area of ​​five acres, and is actually a mansion in the middle of the mansion.

Mr. Cai did not live with her husband. Liu Cong used the excuse of recuperation and studying hard. He moved to the study alone. It was difficult to meet him last time on weekdays, and Mr. Cai almost always stayed alone in the empty room.

Although their marriage eliminated the rumors of Liu Cong being injured, in fact, they did not meet the house on the first day of their marriage. Cai Shaoyu wanted to meet and talked to her close friend, and said that her husband was so good, and she swallowed her tears in her stomach.

All of this was manipulated by her aunt Mrs. Cai. She went back to her parents' home to report according to Mrs. Cai's arrangements, and Liu Cong also reported to her father according to Mrs. Cai's instructions. Sometimes when Liu Biao came to visit them, Mrs. Cai would secretly send someone to inform her. The two of them immediately played the piano and read the book. The couple was loving and respected each other, which made Liu Biao return satisfied.

Cai Shaoyu was patient. Before marriage, she was a arrogant and arrogant little girl. She always thought she was the wife of the governor of the state, but after marriage she gradually understood the truth. If a woman did not have the love of her husband and wife, she would not be happy even if she became the queen.

But it was too late, so she had to accept her fate and live one lonely night after another in regret.

Today, Cai Shaoyu was very annoyed. She accidentally met Liu Jing, which aroused an inexplicable feeling in her heart. Although she lowered her head and didn't look at Liu Jing, Liu Jing's tall and strong figure always appeared in her mind. Originally, he should be his husband, but...

Cai Shaoyu sighed quietly, only after losing it, she would understand what is the most precious.

...........

Liu Cong's study was also a separate courtyard. At this time, the courtyard was very quiet, and the fine winter rain enveloped the entire courtyard. Liu Cong was busy with his father's birthday these days and almost never stayed at home.

A slim figure walked into the courtyard with an umbrella. Cai Shaoyu rarely came here, and only when her father-in-law came to visit them would she come and pretend to be in love with Liu Cong.

But today she was in a state of uneasy and wanted to talk to her husband, so she couldn't help but walk into the strange courtyard and walked up the steps. She put away her umbrella, stretched her head and looked into the hall, and asked, "Is anyone here?"

The hall was extremely quiet and no one responded. It seemed that there was no one in the hall. Cai Shaoyu walked into the inner hall, which was connected to a room, one was a bedroom, one was a study, and the other was a pharmacy. She had only been to the study and pharmacy in this room.

Since Liu Cong was not here, Cai Shaoyu was about to go back. At this time, she accidentally found that the windows of the pharmacy were not closed and were blown open by the wind. The fine raindrops floated in. She hurriedly walked forward and pushed open the door of the pharmacy. A faint smell of medicine came to her face.

The so-called pharmacy actually has not much medicine. The room is empty, with only a few medicine boxes placed on the small table in the middle, which are medicines specially prepared by the Jingzhou Medical Bureau for Liu Cong.

Cai Shaoyu entered the house and closed the window, but unexpectedly found a small red medicine box at her feet, hidden under the cabinet, probably covered by a veil curtain, but the veil curtain was blown away by the wind, revealing the red medicine box.

Cai Shaoyu was a little surprised. How could this medicine box be hidden behind the veil? She put the medicine box on the table and slowly opened it. She saw that the medicine box was lined with golden satin. On the silk, there was a small white porcelain medicine bottle the size of a thumb. Judging from the traces of the placement, there should be a medicine bottle, but the other two were gone.

She picked up the medicine bottle and looked carefully through the light. The medicine bottle was clear and she could see the light blue medicine inside. Suddenly, a roar came from behind her: "What are you doing?"

Cai Shaoyu shivered in fear. The bottle fell from her hand and fell to the ground and smashed it. A light blue liquid splashed out from the bottle and quickly penetrated into the cracks of the bricks. Cai Shaoyu turned around and saw Liu Cong appear at the door at some point. His eyes were blood red and he stared at the fragments.

Cai Shaoyu accidentally broke the medicine bottle, felt guilty and quickly apologized, "Conglang, I'm sorry, I was accidentally."

At this time, Liu Cong watched the medicine bottle be destroyed and the potion penetrated into the cracks of the bricks. He was furious and instantly turned into a beast. He rushed up and raised his hand and slapped Cai Shaoyu, making her look dizzy, and she fell heavily to the ground.

Liu Cong refused to give up, grabbed her hair, shrieked against Cai Shaoyu's pain, dragged her outward, walked to the door, threw her out of the pharmacy with force, roaring like thunder, "It's rolling far away, no more step in."

Cai Shaoyu sat on the ground, covering her face, tears fell down, and she couldn't help but feel ashamed and angry. The long-depressed pain in her heart finally made her cry.

She stood up, cried and ran towards the rain, and soon ran away. Liu Cong looked at her with a blue face, without any sympathy in his eyes.

He closed the door, squatted down, and carefully looked for the liquid that penetrated the bricks to seep out to see if he could scrape back a little powder, but he was disappointed and scratched nothing, and the bottle of medicine was completely ruined.

Liu Cong gritted his teeth in hatred and cursed: "Bitch is a big deal for me."

.........

Liu Jing led his men to leave the Wangjiang Restaurant, and the group took a boat to pass the Han River. At this time, the rain was getting heavier and heavier. The cold penetrated the clothes and invaded the skin. Several soldiers' clothes were thin and their bodies were trembling with cold.

When the ferry just landed, soldiers turned over their horses. At this moment, someone suddenly shouted: "My Nephew"

When Liu Jing turned around, he saw a dozen followers with swords guarding a middle-aged man in a large ship beside him. The man was wearing a green robe, a black hat, and a foot-long beard floated on his chest. It was Kuai Yue.

Liu Jing was overjoyed. He heard that Kuai Yue was sick these days and was about to visit Kuai Yue in the evening, but he didn't expect to meet him at Fancheng Wharf.

Liu Jing quickly stepped forward and bowed and said, "My younger generation Liu Jing will meet Kuai Gong."

Kuai Yue stroked his beard and smiled slightly, "I just went to Fancheng to find you. I heard that you went to Longzhong early in the morning. I was very sorry. I was about to go back to my house, but I didn't expect to meet him here. What a coincidence."

When Liu Jing heard that Kuai Yue had actually visited him in person, he was moved and apologized: "I don't know that Kuai Gong is coming, otherwise I wouldn't go to Longzhong today, so I will definitely wait."

Kuai Yue smiled, "Actually, I am abrupt. You just arrived in Xiangyang and have a lot of things to do. How could you stay in the mansion? I was not fully considered and had nothing to do with my nephew."

He pointed to the boat and smiled, "This is my boat. My nephew might as well get on the boat and talk. His subordinates can also get on the boat and drink some hot soup to warm up."

"Then I'll thank Mr. Kuai."

Liu Jing took his men to board the big ship, and his men went to rest. He was taken to Kuai Yue's cabin. The cabin was dry and tidy. A basin of charcoal fire was lit, warm as spring. Kuai Yue sat at a small table, smiled and waved his hand, "Please sit."

Liu Jing sat down opposite him, and a follower came in to serve tea. Kuai Yue picked up the tea bowl and said with a smile: "I want to recruit talents when I go to Longzhong."

Liu Jing gave a thumbs up in his heart. Jiang was indeed old and guessed his intentions at once. He did not deny it and nodded and said, "I plan to set up a Jiangxia Academy in Wuchang. I want to recruit people with good names and knowledge, so I went to Lumen Academy today and asked Pang Gong for help."

Liu Jing's trick of replacing the pillars can naturally be hidden from Kuai Yue. He didn't say it out loud, and asked with interest: "Will Mr. Pang De agree?"

"I agree. I asked Changshi Xu to cooperate with Lumen Academy for this matter, and I will still focus on Xiangyang."

Xu Changshi's word made Kuai Yue frown slightly. He took a sip of tea and said earnestly: "Nephew, you have done most of the things in Chaisang and Jiangxia, and you are very skilled. But you have made up your mind. I must tell you today."

Liu Jing bowed solemnly, "Please give me advice"

"What I am talking about is that you appoint officials without authorization. You first force Yiji to be appointed as the county magistrate, then you appointed Su Fei as the county magistrate, then Yiji and Xu Shu as the chief magistrate, and Zhu Xun was promoted to the county magistrate. These appointments should have been the power of the state magistrate, but you overstepped the office.

Of course, I understand your intention. You want to use the fait accompli to force the state governor to admit it. But the result of your doing so is not only the state governor's anger, but also makes many senior officials of the state yamen dislike it. You have violated the rules of the officialdom, which is not good for your future takeover of Jingzhou. Nephew, do you understand what I mean?"

Liu Jing nodded silently. He understood what Kuai Yue meant that he was not only facing Liu Biao, but also facing many senior officials in Jingzhou. This was indeed related to his future takeover of Jingzhou.

Kuai Yue’s accusations were not wrong. In fact, Huang Zhong also hinted at his problem, but he did not listen to it at that time. Now that he thought about it, he did not do this matter properly, and was a little anxious, not experienced enough.

Liu Jing sighed softly and admitted his inappropriateness, "Mr. Kuai said it well. I did not consider this matter carefully and did not consider the feelings of the officials in Jingzhou."

Kuai Yue nodded and smiled, "Actually, everyone knows that you are young and energetic and have no experience in assisting officials. It is normal for some things to be misconsidered. Even if an accidental mistake is uncomfortable for a moment, it will not be prejudiced against you. You just need to learn from this lesson and don't commit it again in the future."

Kuai Yue's words reminded Liu Jing that he really needed an experienced official in the officialdom. He handled many things in a naive way and impulsive way. If there was such a person who reminded himself next to him, then he would not lose his power struggle in Jingzhou and would gain the greatest benefit.

It would be the best if Kuai Yue could assist him, but he was the number one figure in Jingzhou and could never go to Jiangxia. Liu Jing fell into deep thought for a moment.

Kuai Yue was not in a hurry to recommend an experienced assistant official to Liu Jing. He stroked his beard and smiled: "I have another suggestion today, I hope my nephew can listen to it."

"Please tell me directly"

Before he knew it, Liu Jing changed the name of Kuai Yue from Kuai Gong to Shishu, which was a kind of sincere trust in him.

Kuai Yue pondered for a moment and said slowly: "The solution to any internal disputes and contradictions is not to whoever eats whom, but to a compromise. Nephew, I hope you can compromise, not only to your uncle, but also to Jiangdong, to Cao Cao, but also to your life. Everyone has their own interests. You are not the only one in the world. If you compromise, you will understand the way of dealing with the world."

Liu Jing was speechless. Kuai Yue's words were really good words, and he was taught.
