Chapter 270 The Oath of Yuanshui
Liu Qi fell ill and traveled to Yuanshui River, which was beyond everyone's expectation.

Pan Jun advised Liu Qi to lie down in the house and not to move lightly because it was the twelfth lunar month and the weather was cold and the water was cold. He was afraid that the condition would be aggravated.

However, Liu Qi did not want to stay in the house for a long time and was surrounded by the pungent smell of Chinese medicine for a long time.He could also feel that his body was getting weaker and weaker. If he didn't travel now, he might never be able to leave again.

The carriage and horses stopped, and the attendant helped Liu Qi out of the car.Wrapped in a large cloak and breathing fresh air, Liu Qi couldn't help but feel a little clearer.

"Cough cough~"

Liu Qi coughed a few times, stopped by the river, looked at the great rivers and mountains of Jingchu, and sighed: "The mountains and rivers of Jingchu are so beautiful and magnificent, and the territory is thousands of miles away. I'm afraid I won't be able to see you again!"

Pan Jun comforted him and said, "If you take good care of your body, you will be able to recover. Why do you say this?"

Seeing that the wind was strong, Liu Bei was worried about Liu Qi's health and said, "The wind is strong by the river today. Since Bo Wei has seen the mountains and rivers, it is better to go back to the house to rest, so as not to get cold again."

"nothing!"

Liu Qi broke away from the attendant's support and said, "The river is beautiful today. Mr. Xuande can walk with me for a while."

"good!"

Under Liu Pan's dissatisfied eyes, Liu Bei helped Liu Qi, whose legs and feet were weak, and left, and asked Xiong Han: "Liu Bei has been staying for a long time, and now the envoy calls him forward again. I wonder what the envoy is discussing with Liu Bei? Could it be the envoy?" Does it belong to Liu Bei, or does Liu Bei want to succeed Jingchu?"

Xiong Han stroked his beard and muttered: "General, Liu Bei has traveled thousands of miles to get the news that you are seriously ill from Jingzhou. From what Han sees, Liu Bei must have the intention to seize the throne. He should be hesitant."

Liu Pan looked at the accompanying civil and military officials, frowned and said, "Only a few people know that they will meet Liu Bei in advance. But I don't know who will eat the inside and outside to meet Liu Bei when he takes over Jingchu."

Xiong Han shook his head and said: "Han doesn't know this person now, maybe he will know in the future. However, when Liu Bei entered Jing, he used his talents to make you a powerful enemy, so he should be well prepared."

When Liu Pan belatedly discovered Liu Bei's intentions, Liu Qi and Liu Bei were chatting.

Liu Qi walked slowly and asked, "From whom did my uncle learn about Gu's illness?"

Liu Bei's heart tightened and he smiled: "Why did Bo Wei say this?"

"Zhong Miao, Zhong Xuan, Cheng Ming, or others in the state capital?" Liu Qi asked.

Liu Bei arrived too quickly. Considering the distance from Ruxukou to Hanshou, if Liu Qi had sent an envoy to inform him, how could Liu Bei have arrived so early.When Liu Qi learned that Liu Bei had entered the Han Dynasty, he knew that someone must inform Liu Bei and help Liu Bei succeed to the throne.

Liu Bei was calm and said, "I dare not hide this from Bo Wei. I am the chief secretary of the prefecture, Xiang Lang."

How could Liu Bei throw Huo Jun out? If he told Liu Qi the truth, he was afraid that Liu Qi would become angry.Now we can only give Xiang Lang the responsibility, and Xiang Lang can keep things simple.And Xiang Lang did send someone to inform Zhuge Liang, but it was just a few days later than Huo Jun.

"In the chaos in Xiangyang, people abandoned their official positions and fled south, and those who fled with their people went to Lang or Juda?" Liu Qi asked.

"Exactly!"

Liu Qi sighed and said, "My uncle can win people's hearts, so it's better to be alone!"

My boss loves Liu Bei, what else can you ask Liu Qi to say!

After a long silence, Liu Qi stopped on the bank of the river, looked at the mountains on the other side of the river, and asked breathlessly: "Since my uncle has great ambitions, can we talk to him?"

As if aware of Liu Qi's deep intention, Liu Bei said bluntly: "The greatest danger in the world today is Cao Cao. I, Wu Chu, severely wounded Cao Cao at Chrysostom. Cao Cao wants to cross the river to destroy Wu Chu, but it is already difficult."

"In our land of Wu and Chu, there are dangers thousands of miles away from the Yangtze River, and there are thousands of boats. We should not be afraid of the enemy in the north of the Yangtze River. Today, only the upper reaches of Bashu are a big danger. If Cao Cao gets it, we, Wu Chu, will be in danger. At that time, the soldiers of the Central Plains are approaching the river. In the north, the people of Bashu and Bashu are occupying the river, and the troops crossing over are in the south of Jing. They are afraid that they will be destroyed soon."

"I was prepared to think that Wu and Chu could join forces to seize Bashu before Cao Cao, and then move south to cross over. There are four prefectures of Yang, Jing, Yi, and Jiao. At that time, there were Qinling Mountains as natural dangers, and thousands of miles of rivers as the Great Wall, and there were countless soldiers and horses. One hundred thousand, tens of millions of people. Although it is difficult to recover the Central Plains, Wu Chu can advance and retreat with sufficient strength and is not afraid of Cao Cao's troops."

"and then?"

Seeing that Liu Bei had stopped, Liu Qi asked.

Liu Bei hesitated for a while and then said: "We can build a country and confront Cao Cao. When the weather changes, we can invade the Central Plains and restore the Han Dynasty."

"Establish the country and restore the Han Dynasty!" Liu Qi murmured and said with emotion: "My uncle's ambition is beyond my comparison. Since taking over Jingchu, Qi thought that it would be a great blessing to be able to restore the old land of the late emperor. How dare he think about it? The matter of founding the country and prospering the Han Dynasty."

It can only be said that everyone has different pursuits, like Liu Bei who was nearly fifty years old and still wanted to revive the Han Dynasty.Apart from him, there is probably no other person in the world.

As the cold wind blew by, Liu Qi coughed a few times, wrapped himself tightly in his cloak, and asked: "Bashu is steep, with the danger of the Three Gorges thousands of miles away. It is difficult to enter Shu. How can my uncle dare to say that he can defeat Bashu?"

Liu Bei looked calm and said bluntly: "Fa Zheng, the envoy from Yizhou, has secretly defected to me, and Meng Da, the general who came out of Sichuan, has also been used by me. Don't forget that Zhang Song has presented me with the secret map of Yizhou to obtain internal contacts in Shu for me."

Liu Qi was shocked by the news Liu Bei revealed while speaking unusual words in a calm tone.Not long after the Battle of Chrysostom, Liu Bei actually extended his hand into Bashu.

Liu Qi suppressed his surprised expression and said with emotion: "My uncle is a man of extraordinary talent. The one who can compete with Cao Cao must be my uncle."

Everyone knows that Yizhou is hard to get.Liu Qi originally thought that taking Yizhou in the west and heading south to Jiaozhou was a verbal plan, but unexpectedly Liu Bei was already implementing it.Liu Bei's words today are enough to make Liu Qi think deeply about Wu Chuhe again.

After a long silence, Liu Qi asked: "Ruo Qi unfortunately passed away and entrusted Jingchu to his uncle. I wonder how my uncle will treat my heir?"

Liu Qi stared at Liu Bei closely, for fear of missing the expression on Liu Bei's face.

When Liu Bei heard this, his face was solemn and he said: "Bo Wei has entrusted us with a great cause, and Bei dare not neglect it. From now on, the heirs of Bo Wei will be the heirs of Bei."

As he spoke, he seemed to feel that his words were not sincere enough to make Liu Qi trust him. Liu Bei pointed at the Yuan River and said in a deep voice: "Today the Yuan River is above, and Bei swears that if Bo Wei entrusts him, then the heir of Bo Wei will be the heir of Bei. "

"If we can establish a country and prosper the Han Dynasty, Liu Pu and Liu Chao will be granted the title of princes and kings, and their hereditary inheritance will last forever, and they will retire with the country. If they are deposed, they will be punished by killing their own brothers, and the crime will not be pardoned!"

"If you violate these words, both ghosts and gods will abandon you!"

"In the past, Guangwu swore by the Luo River, regardless of Zhu Tuna's crime of killing his brother; now Bei Bucai is willing to swear by the Yuan River to ensure that Bo Wei's heirs are rich and honorable." Liu Bei said in a deep voice.

"Oath of Yuanshui?"

Liu Qi has already believed in Liu Bei. The two Han Dynasties still have the legacy of the Spring and Autumn Period. Making an oath by pointing to water and having ghosts and gods above it is the highest oath.

"Uncle's heart, Qi already knows it." Liu Qi's thoughts were confused and he said, "It's cold now, so let's go back first!"

Liu Bei supported Liu Qi and added: "If Bo Wei makes Hanhong his queen, Bei will also help him to preserve Bo Wei's legacy."

Liu Qi thought deeply without saying a word and walked slowly.Although he is leaning toward Liu Bei now, he doesn't know how to reply to Liu Bei. He needs time to think.Or he may have to wait until a certain moment before giving out his will.

When Er Liu returned, everyone saw that their expressions were different, and they couldn't help but whisper in private, guessing what had happened.

On the way back, Zhuge Liang looked for an opportunity and asked, "My lord, what does Liu Jingzhou mean?"

Liu Bei looked around and said in a low voice: "Bo Wei entrusted his foundation to me. I made an oath on the Yuanshui River, but Bo Wei is still hesitating."

Zhuge Liang stroked the feather fan gently and said: "Liu Jingzhou is hesitant now, not because of the lord, but because of Liu Guoan."

"What's the solution to this?" Liu Bei asked.

Zhuge Liang pondered for a while and said: "Liu Guoan has an impatient temper and few strategies. He led his troops and horses to camp seventy miles outside Hanshou City, with the intention of raising troops to invade Hanshou. If we can force him to use troops, great things will happen!" "

"Forcing him to use troops?" Liu Bei's eyes flickered and he said, "Liu Guoan didn't harm me, how can he harm him now?"

Zhuge Liang pulled Liu Bei's sleeve and said in a deep voice: "Liu Guoan wants to fight for the throne, how can he co-exist with the master? The master wants to ascend, how can Liu Guoan give up. After the matter is accomplished, Liu Pan will be removed from his official position and given money to monitor the house. , keep his life, you can’t imitate women’s indecisive behavior now.”

"What's the plan?" Liu Bei asked.

"That's it...that's all!"
