The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 204
In the early morning of the second day, Liu Chan got up early.After washing himself and tidying up his clothes, he felt a little hungry.

He just remembered that his attitude towards Deng Ai yesterday was a bit too ruthless.Deng Ai did offer a vicious strategy, but it was only his own job, the purpose was for his own benefit, and the final decision to use it or not was in his own hands.All that said, if Liu Chan wants to hate in his heart, he should actually hate himself.

This fact once again confirms that sentence - people are really strange creatures, once they have figured it out in their minds, their mentality will change completely.Liu Chan immediately called a guard and asked him to call Deng Ai over to have breakfast with him.

No, the guard reported to Liu Chan that Xiaowei Deng was already waiting in the hall.Liu Chan smiled slightly, Deng Ai got up early enough, so he asked the guards to call Deng Ai.

After the changes in Su Lutu's house last night, the house is actually in chaos. Many servants fled in chaos. There is no cook to cook for Liu Chan.The ones cooking for Liu Chan now are naturally the hot soldiers in Deng Ai's army, so Liu Chan's breakfast this morning is basically the same as what he eats in the barracks on weekdays.The two were talking while eating.

After hesitating for a while, Liu Chan finally mustered up the courage to apologize to Deng Ai for what happened last night.

Deng Ai was chewing something, but when he heard Liu Chan apologize to him, he couldn't help being startled—the majestic Prince of Hanzhong actually wanted to apologize to himself because of such a trivial matter?
Don't look at Deng Ai's defiant appearance on weekdays, in fact, he knows better than anyone else which onion he is, so he almost choked on what was in his mouth.

After he swallowed the thing forcefully, he stood up immediately and said, "My lord, you are too serious, I really can't bear it!"

Liu Chan nodded, and the guilt in his heart became more relaxed, so he asked Deng Ai to sit down and continue eating.

And although Deng Ai didn't know in his heart why the prince behaved like that to him last night, but now that the prince himself has apologized to him, the reason is not because he is a subject, so he should ask further.

The two then ate again while chatting about the affairs of the barbarians.

After the two finished eating, Prue had already come to the lobby to wait, and the two went out to meet him together.In fact, Liu Chan naturally had something to ask Prue to do.

Prue is wearing a black shirt today, looking energetic.Liu Chan asked Pulu to sit on Deng Ai's lower head, and said with a smile, "Pulu, it seems that after joining Deng Ai's army, you slept well last night."

Prue also smiled and said, "It's an honor for my subordinates to be under the command of Shi Zi and Captain Deng. If Shi Zi has something to do, feel free to send me to do it!"

Liu Chan was very satisfied with Prue's eloquence, and said, "I really need your help here. If you can do it well, I will make a great contribution to you!"

Pulu was overjoyed, and replied: "As long as the subordinates can do it, they will definitely live up to the entrustment of the prince!"

Liu Chan nodded and told the department that he didn't have much time now, and the barbarians must settle down as soon as possible so that he can leave for Jingzhou with peace of mind.

Now both Master Sulutu and Keke are dead, and now only Prue's father, Kesu, can preside over the overall situation of the barbarians.However, he had already consulted Prue last night, and the old man was so stubborn that he did not intend to accept the position of barbarian lord at all.Therefore, Liu Chan now wants Prue to go with him to persuade Prue.

In fact, Prue stayed with his father last night until late at night before going home to rest, and asked, "My son, is my father awake yet?"

"He woke up. He woke up before dawn this morning. Now a doctor is taking care of him. Don't worry."

Prue finally felt a little relieved, and then remembered that he hadn't answered Liu Chan's question just now, he hesitated and said: "Actually, my father is also different and would not agree to be the barbarian lord. It's just that my cousin Zig is still alive. , if he becomes a barbarian master, his reputation will be unfair."

Prue's words are actually implying Liu Chan that if Zieg continues to let him live, he will obviously be a disaster.

But how did Prue know that Liu Chan wanted to keep Chieg, he would never keep Chieg in Jingshan, he would use Chieg's serious illness as an excuse to send him to Chengdu for treatment, in fact, he would be placed under house arrest It means being a hostage in Chengdu.In the future, if there is any change between Kesu and the barbarians, he can use Zig as an excuse to calm down the barbarians in one fell swoop.

But such a purpose is naturally inhumane to outsiders, so Liu Chan waved his hand and said: "The matter of Zige is not important. He is seriously ill now, and it is clear that his life is not long. This son intends to send him to the Chengdu National Hospital for recuperation. Maybe it can extend his lifespan for a few more years. So to put it bluntly, the barbarians belong to your father and son now."

Prue was overjoyed, he never thought that the son could come up with such a brilliant plan.Then, Liu Chan continued to tell Prue, but before Zieg died, Kesu could only serve as an acting barbarian master in name.As long as it is able to hold great power and make a false name, it is naturally not a problem.

Prue immediately said: "Everything is up to the order of the prince!"

Liu Chan was quite satisfied with Prue's obedience, so he took him and Deng Ai to Kesu's room for cultivation. In fact, it was next to the room where Liu Chan used to live. The original bedroom has now been given over to Zieg.

The three saw that doctor Wang Quan was taking Kesu's pulse, so they didn't bother them.

When Wang Quan saw Liu Chan coming in, he immediately stood up and saluted.And Kesu also wanted to get up and salute, but was stopped by Liu Chan.Liu Chan asked Wang Quankesu how his condition was now.

Wang Quan replied: "His Royal Highness, old Mr. Kesu is only in a hurry, but there is nothing serious about it, as long as he takes a little rest, it will be fine."

Liu Chan nodded, guessing that Kesu might have high blood pressure.He asked Wang Quan to wait at the side first, and then stepped forward to ask Kesu if he felt better now.

Kesu smiled and said, "Thank you, my son, for your concern. My old bones are still very strong." After speaking, he really got off the couch by himself.

Liu Chan couldn't help laughing, and Kesu also sat down, and said, "Elder Kesu, in fact, my son came to disturb you so early today because he has something important to discuss with you."

Seeing Liu Chan's serious expression, Kesu asked solemnly, "I don't know what your son wants to discuss?"

Liu Chan said again that he intended to ask him to come out to manage the barbarians.But as Liu Chan expected, Kesu's expression suddenly changed, and he said: "I know that the prince said this for the sake of our barbarians. But since my cousin is dead, the position of barbarian lord will naturally belong to me." The nephew will take over."

Liu Chan secretly sighed, and explained: "Young Master Zige's condition is extremely serious, and it is impossible to deal with the affairs of the barbarians, not to mention that the barbarians have just gone through a disturbance? So this son wants to send him to Chengdu. Mr. Hua Tuo, a genius doctor, diagnosed and treated him. You will act as an agent of the barbarian lord for a while, and when Zieg recovers from his illness, he will naturally be able to come back to take over the barbarian lord. Isn't it the best of both worlds?"

Under the persuasion of the eloquent Liu Chan, Kesu's nervous expression was relieved, but he remained silent.Seeing this, Liu Chan secretly winked at Prue.

Pulu understood, stepped forward to persuade Kesu, and said, "Father, the son just asked you to come forward as an acting adult, and didn't want you to snatch the position of adult like Keke? Besides, what my cousin needs most now is It is to treat illnesses, not to take over the position of the barbarian lord. If he does this, something good or bad may happen, so what will we barbarians do then?"

It is still the son who knows Lao Tzu best, after Prue's words, Kesu nodded straightly.How did he know that the worst, most cunning and cunning guy in the entire barbarian tribe was probably his trusted son.

After Kesu sighed softly, he finally said: "If His Royal Highness can really cure my nephew's illness, then it doesn't matter if someone pokes my old bone in the back!"

Kesu's words clearly meant that he was willing to come out to serve as the acting barbarian lord. Liu Chan was overjoyed, and immediately promised him that he would do his best to cure Zieg's illness for him!

Then, Liu Chan asked Zhuge Qiao to grab the knife and made a statement to Chengdu that the Jingshan barbarians who had always been free from the rule of the Han Dynasty were finally subdued, and this was the result of the majesty of the King of Hanzhong.

The reason why Liu Chan wants to put on this list is actually very obvious.The people of the country always love saving face, as long as they hear about the coming of all nations to the dynasty, and the attachment of any nation, it does not matter whether it is true or false, they are often carried away with joy.On this point, Liu Bei is probably no exception.Therefore, Liu Chan wanted to take credit for himself, and also to find a reluctant excuse for being late to Jingzhou.
