Chen Gui nodded, he had no intention of getting close to Liu Bei.

It's a pity that this person's attitude towards the gentry is not very clear, but he is quite close to the common people.

Liu Bei, who came up from the bottom, still paid some attention to the common people.

He had seen such a scene before more than ten years ago.

These aristocratic families can be passed down to this day, and there are many marriages between them.

He knew that it was not that Liu Bei was unwilling to take over Xuzhou, but because things in Xuzhou were not that simple.

At this moment, the three of them were sitting cross-legged on the Tukang, with their shirts exposed to each other.

Even if he surrenders to Cao Cao, it actually doesn't mean anything.

There are many members of the entire Xuzhou family who exchange information with Cao Ying.

At this time, he leaned against the wall and let out a sigh of relief.

"If there is no rain in the sky, the rice growing on the ground will die of drought. This year's autumn harvest will be difficult!"

He also stands on his own side.

The eldest brother kept secret about this kind of thing, and he didn't want to make Liu Bei angry.

Now in Xuzhou, as Tao Qian is old, frail and seriously ill, this situation may not last long.

The party's ban is also aimed at the so-called aristocratic families.

The two sons behind him are all mediocre people. Tao Qian is satisfied if they can live peacefully in this world.

Shortly after noon, Liu Bei opened the window of the house with his own hands.

This made everyone under Tao Qian's command somewhat close to Liu Bei.

Zhang Fei was really suffocated and couldn't bear it.

And this situation is also the basis for a good relationship between the three of them.

Next to him, Chen Deng knelt down beside him.

Seeing that the weather was getting hotter and hotter, Liu Bei was probably feeling a little tormented inside.

Xuzhou, Tancheng Administrative Office!

Cao Bao clenched his fists and looked a little nostalgic, recalling the days when he followed Tao Qian wholeheartedly.

However, if Guan Yu had not mentioned the construction of the temple, Liu Bei would not have heard of it.

It's like they were hanging on purpose.

However, as a military general, who is willing to devote himself to the documents?

As a military commander, although Cao Ren handled government affairs, he didn't have too many problems.

Even though the days in Xuzhou are no longer as long as they were without a residence, the three brothers still live in the same house and sleep together.

"It hasn't rained for many days!"

According to the current situation, Zuo Rong is Tao Qian's man. If his eldest brother wants to succeed Xuzhou Mu, he cannot turn against Tao Qian's subordinates.

Probably Tao Qian was able to control the relationship smoothly at first, but as Tao Qian got older, his frailty began to show.

"How long does it take for the Lord to arrive?"

He already knew the entire situation in Xuzhou.

After the situation in Yanzhou was settled, Cao Cao returned to Xuzhou, but he did not directly arrive at the front line of the two armies at the first time.

Big deal, so what if you flatter Cao Cao?

Zuo Rong believed in Buddhism and wanted to build a temple. If it was just an ordinary temple, Guan Yu wouldn't care much.

What kind of hunting is there in this weather?

Even those wild beasts are probably unwilling to come out to hunt in such an environment.

It's just that the heat wave lingers in the room and lingers for a long time.

"What is Cao Jun doing now?"

Then he used a knife to gently scratch the previously noted content.

Chen Deng knew this very well.

He also knew that Tao Qian's only choice was to entrust Xuzhou to Liu Bei.

Although he didn't know what Cao Cao was doing, Cao Ren didn't take the initiative to ask about this kind of thing.

"In recent days, Liu Bei has been living in Xiapi, living in seclusion and simplicity!"

For many days in a row, the temperature has only risen but not dropped.

After this question was asked, Cao Bao became somewhat silent.

"Brother, the rain is beyond our control!"

Zhang Fei couldn't help but muttered something, and Liu Bei just shook his head when he heard this.

The attitude of those nobles was for their own benefit, and now Tao Qian was no longer taken seriously by those nobles.

The influence of the aristocratic family was so great in this era that sometimes the role of the imperial court was negligible.

Now, Liu Bei is also a relative of the Liu family. Entrusting the entire Xuzhou to him is exactly entrusting Xuzhou to the Liu family.

Zuo Rong was the Prime Minister of Xiapi. After all, their brothers just lived in Xiapi. Although Zuo Rong was usually very polite to them.

But Chen Deng could tell that Liu Bei was quite moved by the territory of Xuzhou.

"snort!"

After asking the deputy general next to him, Cao Ren looked at the government affairs in front of him and felt that his head was about to get bigger.

Once Tao Qian died, the situation in Xuzhou would no longer be as stable as before.

Today, Tao Qian looks much better, but the burden on Tao Qian is getting heavier and heavier.

But, he finally said it.

"Yuanlong, what has Liu Bei done recently?"

He was a fellow countryman of Tao Qian, and he was regarded as someone whom Tao Qian trusted more. Tao Qian intended to entrust Xuzhou to him.

Looking at Cao Bao in front of him, Tao Qian's tone was extremely sincere. He knew that his end was not far away.

The difficult thing is how to deal with the current situation in Xuzhou. Liu Bei has now clearly seen the entire faction in Xuzhou.

These aristocratic families themselves put their family first, but they only came into contact with each other.

"I remember this scene. This is a sign of a severe drought!"

"Brother, is there something on your mind?"

Being able to go into battle and kill the enemy is the best thing.

Although Zhang Fei was thinking this in his heart, he still didn't say it directly.

Liu Bei was a benevolent man and would definitely treat Xuzhou well, and he would not be too harsh on his former subordinates.

"Cao Cao's army has no intention of taking the initiative to attack during the previous turmoil in Yanzhou, but I heard that Cao Cao has solved the trouble in Yanzhou!"

Liu Bei didn't have much opinion on this.

This point, after Cao Cao's attitude towards Xuzhou during this period, Chen Deng and his son were able to see it.

Perhaps he was feeling dizzy due to the heat. He also leaned on the other side, his broad sleeves instinctively blowing the breeze towards his face.

Just look at how the other party has behaved in Xiapi since entering Xuzhou, and even how he treats the people.

Xuzhou looks simple on the surface, but its roots are intertwined and its power distribution is not that simple.

Liu Bei, who heard the voice, turned around and glanced at his third brother, feeling helpless.

It seems that every moment, he has a different view on the content of the letter in his hand.

It is precisely because of this relationship among aristocratic families that there are so-called cliques and there are so-called disciples.

In the lobby of Chen Mansion, Chen Gui sat in front of the ice mirror, stretching out his hand to gently fan the cool breeze.

Chen Gui glanced at Chen Deng.

Having fought side by side with Liu Bei before, Cao Bao still quite recognized Liu Bei in the future.

Marriage is just a way to strengthen a certain relationship.

I don’t know what my eldest brother was thinking, but he stayed in the house all day long and couldn’t leave.

Cao Bao didn't say anything else.

Tao Qian didn't want to see this situation.

However, it is somewhat inappropriate to build Buddhist temples on such a large scale at this time of year.

"You are so timid now!"
