Chapter 252 Mr. Shuijing——Sima Hui!

Inside the pavilion, Xu Shu was not at all panicked. Instead, he gently took a sip of the tea in his hand.

But he felt the fragrance lingering on his lips and teeth, and after savoring it carefully, Xu Shu smiled and said, "Brother Yidu, what you said is wrong."

"With the ability of Uncle Liu, our assistance, and the power of the Kuai family in Jingxiang, it will be as easy as taking something out of a sack to take Jingxiang quietly."

"In fact, if you think about it carefully, we only need to take down Liu Biao, and Cao Mengde alone can't make any waves."

"After all, there is no emperor now. Only the royal family can command the world and make the heroes work together."

"Jingxiang is in the hands of Liu Biao. Cao Mengde may still have some ideas, but as long as it falls into the hands of Liu Huangshu, Cao Cao's ambitions will be suppressed."

"We don't have to worry about a real lose-lose situation because it won't happen."

"If we take Jingxiang, the second advantage will be even more obvious."

"Since Zhao Yun ambushed Liu Yao at Gepo, Liu Yao escaped but fell seriously ill. Now he is like a candle in the wind or a lamp in the rain, and could go out at any time. He has clearly stated that he is willing to hand over the foundation of Yangzhou to the Han royal family so that the Han Dynasty can continue uninterrupted."

"Among these Han royal family members, he is more optimistic about Liu Xuande."

"So, as long as we get Jingxiang, we can get Yangzhou. If we control the middle and lower reaches, we will have the natural barrier of the Yangtze River. If Ye Feng wants to attack from the south, how can he cross the Yangtze River without the help of the navy?"

"So the one who deserves the most to be able to use his talents in Jingxiang is Liu Xuande."

"I wonder if these words can convince Brother Yidu?"

There was a flash of shock in Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang's eyes, and they finally understood why Xu Shu was so confident.

The plan for Jingxiang was successful, and it was instantly connected to Yangzhou. Liu Yao was willing to give it up, which was much more convenient and smoother than directly fighting for it.

What they need most now is time and reducing internal friction. If Liu Bei becomes the lord of Jingxiang, the situation will become clear in an instant. This is the most likely possibility to stop Ye Feng.

I have to say that Kuai Yue was moved.

Although he was not clear about Xu Shu's ability, he was clear about Sima Hui and Pang Degong's abilities. Although both of them seemed to be in seclusion, they could influence a lot of forces secretly. With the help of the Kuai family, he felt that it was very likely to take over Jingxiang.

There was a hint of surprise in his eyes, but this matter was of great importance and he still did not dare to make a decision on his own.

He wanted to discuss the matter with his brother, but Kuai Liang had already handed the matter over to him.

This is indeed a test for him.

Kuai Yue simulated the situation in his mind again and looked at Xu Shu: "Do you have a specific plan?"

Xu Shu waved his hand and smiled, "Brother Yidu, you haven't decided yet."

"Some things are very confidential and cannot be leaked, so"

Kuai Yue nodded heavily: "Yes."

"But I have to say something up front. If things can be done, my Kuai family will naturally help us. If things can't be done, don't blame us for being prudent and protecting ourselves."

"after all."

Xu Shu laughed: "It's human nature, why would we blame him?"

"Today's mission has been successfully completed. I am very happy. Why don't we have a couple more drinks?"

"Come, have a drink."

The atmosphere was extremely harmonious as the glasses clinked.

The moon was on the willow branches, and Xu Shu, dragging his somewhat intoxicated body, bowed to the Kuai brothers and said, "Brother Yidu, Brother Zirou, I am too drunk today, so I will leave first."

"We'll see you once everything is planned."

After leaving Kuai's house, Xu Shu, who was originally intoxicated, quickly regained his clarity of vision.

Seeing that there was no one around, he went straight to an inn in the city.

Enter the inn and go up to the third floor.

Xu Shu bowed and stood in front of a private room: "Sir, I'm back."

"Yuanzhi, come in quickly." "We have been waiting for you for a long time."

In the private room, two old men sat opposite each other, brewing tea on the table.

If Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang were here, they would definitely recognize them. They are Pang Degong and Mr. Shuijing Sima Hui, who are very famous in Jingxiang.

Inside the house, the aroma of tea filled the air. Pang Degong was the first to speak: "Yuanzhi, how is the situation? Is the Kuai family willing to help?"

Xu Shu was silent for a moment: "Kuai Yue promised to help us, but Kuai Liang never expressed his attitude from beginning to end."

"Kuai Liang is really hard to deal with."

Pang Degong and Sima Hui looked at each other and said, "Yuanzhi, do you think Kuai Liang has other plans in mind?"

Xu Shu shook his head: "I don't know."

"Because he never showed it from beginning to end."

"Perhaps as he said, since the Kuai family has been handed over to Kuai Yue, naturally everything must be done according to the head of the family."

"I hope we are overthinking it."

Pang Degong asked: "Brother Decao (Sima Hui's courtesy name Decao), what do you think?"

"What we are planning now is of great importance. If there is any mistake, I am afraid that all efforts will fail. How about you go and meet Kuai Liang in person?"

"You two had some friendship back then. You can at least know his attitude if you take action."

Sima Hui picked up the tea in front of him, took a sip, and shook his head slowly: "If Kuai Liang had other thoughts, where would his thoughts be?"

Pang Degong and Xu Shu both fell into deep thought.

After a while, they both said at the same time: "Cao Cao."

"Because Cao Cao is the most powerful, with the support of Cai Mao and the Kuai family, Jingxiang will most likely fall into his hands."

"This is the safest way."

Sima Hui shook his head slowly: "Wrong."

"wrong?"

"Where is wrong?"

Sima Hui said: "Wouldn't it be faster to just submit to Ye Feng?"

"Ye Feng occupies most of the world. Wherever he goes, he is unmatched and no one can stop his edge."

"In the Battle of Runan, he perfectly annihilated the main forces of Liu Yao, Tao Qian, Liu Bei, and Cao Cao."

"Qingzhou, Yanzhou, Xuzhou, Yuzhou, within a month, they will all fall into his hands."

"These four states, plus the three states in Hebei that he has long managed, plus the wealthy Luoyang and Chang'an."

"He has already occupied nine of the thirteen states in the world. Is there anyone in the world who can stop him from unifying the world?"

"If you were Kuai Liang, what choice do you think would be the most beneficial for the Kuai family?"

Pang Degong and Xu Shu looked at each other, and a hint of sadness flashed across their faces.

He sighed faintly: "Although I don't want to admit it, Ye Feng's ability is far beyond people's imagination."

"But we are all loyal to the Han Dynasty. How can we work for them?"

"If this is true, I'm afraid I'll be cursed for eternity."

Pang Degong sighed, but Xu Shu beside him had a different look in his eyes. After a short silence, he bowed and said, "Teacher, you already have other things in mind."

"And this calculation is not to help Liu Bei Liu Xuande"

"Is it right?"

As soon as these words came out, Pang Degong broke out in cold sweat and subconsciously looked at his best friend of many years, with a complicated look in his eyes.
