Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

There was a look of depression on Kuai Yue's face, and there was a look of relief, and he said slowly: "Liu Jingsheng is the lord, and I am a subject. The lord will not listen to advice, so I have to act on behalf of the lord. But God's will tricks people, and the success falls short. Afterwards, the state herdsmen made peace with each other, and the name of benevolence and righteousness remained, but I resigned due to illness, and added a life-and-death enemy, and my Kuai family suffered a great loss."

"However, that's exactly how it is. My Kuai family has fulfilled the principle of master and subordinate, and I don't owe Liu Biao any more. No matter what choices my Kuai family makes in the future, no one can say that my Kuai family is wrong!"

There was some slight resentment in Kuai Yue's tone. What he did before was really for the good of Liu Biao, but Liu Biao really chilled him, and even made Kuai Yue feel a kind of muddy towards Liu Biao. a feeling of.

Kuai Yue's tone gradually turned cold, and he said: "Although Liu Jingsheng is a benevolent master, he is not a wise master. Afterwards, even though my brother will act according to his original ideas, if he wants to contact Li Yi, there is no need to be afraid. Even if others know, they will only think that brother It is to make amends on my behalf, and there will be no other thoughts at all, and when Li Yi raises his troops to go south, my brother can follow the trend and become the first hero in Jingzhou!"

Kuai Liang was listening, but he didn't feel excited by Kuai Yue's description. Instead, he had that uneasy premonition again, and asked, "How will you deal with yourself then?"

"I?"

Kuai Yue chuckled, and said indifferently, "Naturally, he died to appease the resentment in Li Yi's heart."

2 Chapter [-] The Kuai Family's Decision ([-])

Kuai Liang was stunned for a while, staring blankly at Kuai Yue's eyes and didn't speak, I don't know how long it took until his eyes were a little sore, and then he asked incredulously: "Are you joking with me? "

No wonder Kuai Liang was so surprised, it was Kuai Yue's words that he couldn't understand at all.

To pay for Li Yi's life!

As for it?

Not to mention that brotherhood cannot be tolerated by Kuai Liang, but just looking at the power of his Kuai family in Jingzhou, who would dare to ask his brother to pay for his life?

Compared with Kuai Liang, who was a little out of control, Kuai Yue, the person who proposed to pay for his life, was very calm, drinking tea in a calm manner, even with a smile on his face, it didn't look like he was talking about his own life and death just now people.

"Brother, don't be anxious, just listen to me slowly."

"What's there to say? Although I am optimistic about Li Yi and Liu Jingsheng's replacement, but Li Yi wants to secure the position of state shepherd. In the future, I will have to wait for the support of the aristocratic family. At that time, I just need to find someone to be a guarantee and one or two, and then give a generous gift , the previous conflicts can definitely be resolved, so why do you want to die?"

"Besides, even if you don't care about the relationship between you and me, you have thought about it. If you choose to die in order to please Li Yi, my Kuai family will definitely become the laughing stock of Jingzhou, saying that you and I are afraid of Li Yi. By then Who else in Jingzhou would respect my Kuai family!"

Kuai Liang's attitude is very firm, clearly disapproving of Kuai Yue's choice.

Kuai Yue lowered his head, a gloomy look flashed in his eyes, but when he raised his head again, his eyes had turned to determination.

Although Kuai Liang is Kuai Yue's elder brother, he is more resourceful, and the two brothers are equal, but when it comes to decisiveness and handling skills, Kuai Yue, the younger brother, is more than a step ahead of Kuai Liang, the older brother.

In order to preserve the righteousness of the monarch and his ministers, and to repay Liu Biao's appreciation, Kuai Yue was able to go all out and assassinate Li Yi without violating the law.

Similarly, after being disappointed with Liu Biao, he can risk his life to pave the way for the future of the Kuai family.

Kuai Yue said calmly: "Brother, listen to me, before you and I said that Liu Jingsheng was more than righteous but not enterprising enough to preserve Jingzhou in troubled times. However, when we evaluated Zhou Mu, did we ever think about what we did ?”

"What you and I have always thought about is to maintain the current prestige of the family and prevent the rest of the family from overtaking the Kuai family. It seems that we are busy and working hard, but in fact, it is not the slightest thing to say that we are all mediocre people. Not too much."

Kuai Liang was still immersed in the depth of Kuai Yue's "dying", but after hearing Kuai Yue's words, he still couldn't get angry, because Kuai Yue's words directly denied the hard work of several generations of his family. ah.

Seeing that his elder brother was about to get angry, Kuai Yue not only did not apologize, but his tone became stronger, and he said: "If we are not mediocre, why don't we dare to compete with the Cai family and see who is the number one family in Jingzhou?"

Hearing this, Kuai Liang's heart moved, his anger subsided a lot, he understood what Kuai Yue wanted to say, but he would not agree, he shook his head and said: "My Kuai family and Cai family are in the same position, I want to separate How can it be so easy to be superior and inferior, and it is better to complement each other than to compete, otherwise sooner or later it will be unavoidable to be exploited by others."

"What brother said is true, brother Yu also thought the same way before."

Kuai Yue nodded first, and then continued: "I have always regarded Li Yi as the enemy of Jingzhou, and I have inquired about him a lot in private. I secretly think that no one in Jingzhou can understand him better than me."

Kuai Liang responded lightly, expressing his agreement, after all, the person who knows a person best is often his opponent.

Kuai Yuedao: "Li Yi, Bai Ding's body is as if he was born out of nowhere. He has been in the officialdom for less than a year, and he has done a great thing that countless people want to do but can't. Now he occupies Nanyang and is the prefect of a place. Comparing the population of the people under the rule, it is actually no less than that of many state capitals. With such an achievement, I don’t know how many people can’t get it in their entire lives. , but the edge is still the same, and if it goes on for a long time, I really can't imagine his future achievements."

"On the other hand, Zhou Mu, with a heart of loving the people, could have made Jingzhou peaceful, but after Li Yi's arrival, he is like a dead tree that has been around for a hundred years, and his whole body is already filled with death!"

"Brother, what happened after Li Yi arrived in Jingzhou?"

"Wenpin resigned with a seal, and Zhou Mu asked several times, but refused to accept the order."

"Under the city of Xinye, there are obviously tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, but Sun Ce and a warrior kid hit a hundred with one blow, ián zhàn won consecutive victories, and Jingzhou's face was ruined. If Li Yi hadn't led the troops to fight, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun would be the same now. The man in the mound."

"After that, Li Yi's reputation in Xiangyang became better day by day, and he had an ambiguous relationship with Cai Mao. Huang Chengyan even took his wife and sent his daughter and family to join him. From this, it can be seen that it is almost inevitable for Li Yi to control Jingzhou!"

Kuai Liang nodded and said: "That's not bad. I also know that Li Yi has a great future, but you have to know that it is easy to win Jingzhou, but it is difficult to keep Jingzhou. After all, Li Yi cannot leave my Kuai family."

"Oh, my brother, why don't you understand!"

Kuai Yue couldn't help but patted his leg, and said loudly: "Li Yi, as a white man, can win Dong Zhuo, win Nanyang, and look back at Jingzhou. His momentum is like a tiger descending a mountain. On the other hand, our family has passed on for thousands of years. , who have saved up for a hundred years, but are trembling and living in a small place, so they must be the dog that guards the household!"

Kuai Liang was shocked, and Kuai Yue just praised Li Yi, but it's okay to say that he is a household dog, and this is unbearable.

Kuai Liang wanted to refute, but found helplessly that, compared with Li Yi's actions, their Kuai family, no, not only them, but also many aristocratic families in Jingzhou, including Liu Biao, were really similar to housekeeper dogs.

Kuai Yue observed Kuai Liang's expression, knew that he had listened, and at the same time thought of the future, his mood was agitated, and he said loudly: "If there is peace and prosperity, you and I will do it even if we are the dogs that guard the household. After all, it is very good. Yes, it would be unwise for us to drag the family up and down."

"But it's different now, the world is in a strange situation. Yesterday, Yuan Shu plotted against Jingzhou. Today, Li Yi is crouching by his side. There will be tomorrow and the future. I don't know how many people will have Jingzhou's idea!"

"Now that the world is in chaos, if we are trapped in Jingzhou, we will be taken advantage of sooner or later. Although with the prestige of our Kuai family, even if Jingzhou is overthrown, our lives will probably be safe, but how much prestige will the Kuai family have at that time? Really? When that day comes, will you and I still have the face to meet our ancestors?"

"so!"

Kuai Yue couldn't help clenching his fists, and said: "The way out for my Kuai family is to choose a bright master to help him achieve great things. At that time, my Kuai family will definitely be able to take advantage of the situation and rise, and it will no longer be limited to Jingzhou!"

Looking at the ambitious second brother, Kuai Liang sighed softly, with a little disappointment on his face, and said: "I am also optimistic about Li Yi, but only in Jingzhou, I don't want you to see it in such a long-term, However, since this is the plan, why does it have to be Li Yi, just say that Yuan Shao, who is now gaining momentum in Hebei, if my Kuai family defected, wouldn't it be safe?"

Kuai Yue shook his head secretly, his brother is good at everything, but he is too cautious.

Kuai Yue said: "Yuan Benchu ​​is indeed a hero of the time. If it is not expected, all the land of Hebei will be in his hands, but brother, have you ever thought about how many soldiers and horses Yuan Shao has, how many generals are behind him, and how many advisers are there?"

"My Kuai family is meat to Yuan Benchu, but it is not necessary. Even if we rely on it, the future income will be the same as today. On the other hand, Li Yi, although he has the ambition of Qi Huan, but his wings are not yet full. My Kuai family If you sincerely rely on him, it will be a gift in a timely manner, and once Li Yi gains power, if you act with emotion and reason, my Kuai family will not be treated badly."

"Furthermore, Yuan Benchu ​​and I served under the command of the General in the early years. The Eighth Colonel of Xiyuan, only Yuan Benchu ​​was the second person after the General. However, although Yuan Benchu ​​could gather people's hearts, he could not do his best Coupled with the fact that there are good and bad around you, and you are burdened by your reputation, your words and deeds are easily influenced by others, and you often get twice the result with half the effort."

"The allied army's challenge to Dong Zhuo is a proof. If Yuan Benchu ​​could arrange it properly, with the power of the allied army that day, the person who killed Dong Zhuo would not be Li Yi, but Yuan Shao. Therefore, although Yuan Shao's momentum is great now, in my opinion, it is always illusory and untrue. feeling."

"On the other hand, Li Yi, although there are only a few people under his command, I dare not underestimate him."

"Except for Huang Chengyan, I got news a few days ago that Cai Yong and Cai Zhonglang are also by Li Yi's side."

Kuai Liang was just listening quietly at first, but he didn't want Cai Yong's name to come out, so he was stunned and said in surprise: "What, you mean Master Cai?"

Kuai Yue showed a somewhat strange expression on his face, and said: "If the news is not bad, Li Yi should have occupied Cai Zhonglang's daughter, so Cai Zhonglang may be used by Li Yi sooner or later."

Kuai Liang's lips trembled, intending to say that Li Yi is really not particular, but after thinking about it again, he found helplessly that Li Yi did it really beautifully.

Kuai Yue continued: "Li Yi has a confidant named Guo Jia, who was born in a commoner and didn't have much reputation, but Li Yi came to invite him personally. At that time, Guo Jia was not at home, so Li Yi carried firewood and water for his mother on behalf of Guo Jia. I followed the example of King Wen in pulling a chariot, and I got Guo Jia to work for me just now. I was curious and had a chance to talk to Guo Jia. Let’s figure out where the problem is, as the saying goes, there must be demons when things go wrong, so Guo Jia is most likely not an ordinary person.”

"If my guess is true, wouldn't Li Yi's discerning eyes be even more frightening."

Kuai Liang listened, his face full of thought, wondering how Li Yi found Guo Jia.
