When the news reached Jingzhou, Liu Biao was the most nervous. Now Jingzhou is already a piece of fat roasted on the fire.Just dealing with the princes from all walks of life who are coveting Jingzhou has already made him very tired.If the Chuanguo Yuxi, which was so hot that it couldn't be touched any more, really came to Jingzhou, then he really couldn't bear it and walked away.Liu Biao himself didn't have much thought about Chuanguo Yuxi, after all, he only wanted to separate himself from one side and had no intention of dominating the world, so he didn't need Chuanguo Yuxi at all.As long as he can keep Jingzhou and enjoy peace, he will be satisfied.

When this kind of news came out, Liu Biao first sent people to investigate the authenticity of the matter.As early as when the Luoyang palace was burned, the whereabouts of the Chuanguo Yuxi had been unknown.Even if the jade seal can be found now, it is most likely to appear in Luoyang or Chang'an.

Now there are so many people in the separate areas of the country, and everyone is thinking about Yuxi, and no one does not pay attention to the movement of Yuxi.Under such circumstances, how could someone be able to hide from the eyes of the world and quietly bring Yuxi to Jingzhou?What's more, if someone really has such a great ability, how could he accidentally leak the news and make it known to everyone?

This must be a conspiracy, Liu Biao thought so.

The people Liu Biao sent to investigate soon returned.It turned out that the news came from Chang'an City.Because Dong Zhuo's remaining tribes fought each other in Chang'an City, many people fled in all directions like Zhang Ji did.The news that Li Jue and Guo Si were quietly looking for jade seals across the country was also spread by those Xiliang soldiers who were fleeing for their lives.

Li Jue and Guo Si once arrested a group of eunuchs who moved from Luoyang to Chang'an and interrogated them repeatedly, and got news from them.The eunuch who kept the Chuanguo Yuxi was handed over to the palace maid and brought to Chang'an City.Later, the city of Chang'an was in great chaos, so the court lady escaped from Chang'an and fled to the south.

Liu Biao's men said that they didn't know if the news was true or not, and all the people they caught who escaped from Chang'an City said so.Now heading south from Chang'an City, the safest place is Jingzhou, so some people say that the person with the jade seal fled to Jingzhou.

For this kind of news, Liu Biao is really the first and the second big.Of course he himself thinks that this is a fantasy, but other princes of all walks of life definitely don't think so.Now no matter what Liu Biao says, they will not believe it. Even if Liu Biao jumped into the Yellow River, he would not be able to clean up.These people will definitely think that Liu Biao has obtained the Jade Seal of Chuanguo and has kept it private.Even if someone does not believe that Yuxi has fallen into Liu Biao's hands, they can pretend to believe it.Using this as an excuse, he aggressively attacked Jingzhou under the slogan of restoring the Han Dynasty and defeating the traitor Liu Biao.

The current situation is much more serious than Zhang Ji's call.

Just at this time, Zhang Ji, who had agreed to surrender, also heard the news that Yuxi was in Jingzhou.He immediately repented, betrayed Liu Biao, and attacked Rangcheng overnight.Just fight, but unfortunately he was really unlucky, and was shot by random arrows during the siege and died.

His nephew Zhang Xiu took over his army.Zhang Xiu is young and energetic, and he can be regarded as a general who is used to fighting.Now because of Zhang Ji's repeated horizontal jumping behavior, the relationship between Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu has also become very delicate.Zhang Xiu himself really wanted to surrender to Liu Biao, but if his uncle did this, even if he was sincere now, Liu Biao would not believe him anymore.

Fortunately, Zhang Xiu was not very stupid. He knew that Zhang Ji's surrender to Liu Biao was facilitated by Xun You.He sent someone to see Xun You, expressing his sincerity to surrender, and asked him to mediate to facilitate the matter.Xun You went to visit Liu Biao again and asked him to appease Zhang Xiushan and keep the original strategy unchanged.Liu Biao accepted this suggestion, and both sides resolved their respective crises.

The reason why Liu Biao agreed so readily is because there are more important matters than Zhang Ji's matter now.

After Xun You came, Liu Biao immediately took the opportunity to ask him how to deal with Yuxi's rumors.While talking, Liu Biao told Xun You what he knew without reservation.He also swears to the sky, swears to Xun You, that Yuxi will never be with him.Liu Biao said this as a last resort, he really didn't want to make himself unable to defend Jingzhou because of Yuxi.

In fact, if he didn't state his position like this, Xun You wouldn't doubt him either.Of course Xun You knew Liu Biao's personality clearly.If he has the ambition to dominate the world, he will not let so many people from Jingzhou come to join others, but just settle them in the city.

The difficulty of this matter lies in Liu Biao's inability to prove himself.Even if Liu Biao immediately publicly stated to the heroes of the world that Yuxi was really not with him, no one would believe it.Such a big problem made Liu Biao very worried.

Xun You knew early on that he wanted to find a solution by himself.After Liu Biao finished speaking, he took his time and solved Liu Biao's troubles with just a few words.

Xun You's strategy is very simple.He asked Liu Biao to quickly send envoys to Chang'an to pay tribute to the court to show his loyal submission to the emperor.Send people to check the whole territory of Jingzhou.As long as you find precious items that flow into Jingzhou from Chang'an or Luoyang.Whether it is altars, jars or gold and silver treasures, all are packed and sent to Chang'an, so as to show that there is no intention of hiding treasures.

Liu Biao readily followed suit.

Jingzhou is a place where all directions are accessible, and everything spreads quickly, and news is of course no exception.Of course, Song Ci soon found out, and it was Pang Tong who told her the news, and Pang Tong also included many internal guesses from Jingzhou scholars.

Hearing this news, Song Ci felt no less pressure than Liu Biao.You must know that Liu Biao just recited the name of privately hiding the jade seal, and she is the one who really harbors the jade seal.That Yuxi is not a hot potato, but a real explosive|explosive, which might explode at any time.

Also, the news that Yuxi was in Jingzhou also put a lot of pressure on Song Ci.She couldn't figure out why there were such rumors.In the end, someone has already grasped the fact that Yuxi is in her hands, or is it just a coincidence that a blind cat met a dead mouse.This kind of thing cannot be verified.If you really go to investigate, it will attract the attention of others, which is tantamount to not calling yourself, showing that you have a relationship with Yuxi.

Song Ci thought about it carefully and made sure that after he got the jade seal, he didn't leak any news.Then the fault must be on Liu's mother.You must know why Yuxi is in Liu Mu's hands. This important question was previously ignored by Song Ci.

Now, whether he wants to get involved or not, Song Ci is already in the game.

In the end how to do?

Song Ci once thought about going back and digging out the jade seal and quietly throwing it into Chang'an City.Then throw this time bomb|bomb out, and the rumors in Jingzhou will be self-defeating.At that time, no matter how much others beat up Yuxi, it had nothing to do with her.

Song Ci didn't want to do this.The risk of going back to Chang'an is very high, after all, it is still under the control of Dong Zhuo.Song Ci's identity has been exposed a lot, it's just because Jingzhou is high and the emperor is far away, people who don't know don't connect her with these things.Furthermore, Song Ci didn't really want Yuxi to see the light of day again.After all, the reason why she buried the jade seal deeply before was that she didn't want the incumbents to compete endlessly for the jade seal, which would cause more turmoil.

After thinking about it for a long time, Song Ci still decided to let Yuxi stay there.However, in order to prevent it, she must take action.

First is the issue of whereabouts.Now Song Ci and Cai Wenji live in the deep mountains. Although not many people know about it, there are still people who know about it.The most important thing is that Song Ci did not hide his true colors.If someone really came from Chang'an City, maybe they would recognize her. This is a very troublesome thing.For safety's sake, she had to lurk.

If Song Ci wants to hide, he must first solve Cai Wenji's problem.If they continued to live together, Cai Wenji would definitely be hurt.

So, after careful consideration, Song Ci said to Cai Wenji: "Originally, your private affairs should be decided by yourself, but the situation forces me to say something. For some reason, I must go back to my hometown now. I can't say if I can come back here again. Now we live here together, and I can barely protect you. What will you do if I leave? You are not from Jingzhou, and you are here by accident Come on. The reason why I said these words, you should also understand that some things are better to make decisions early. In troubled times, many things can’t stay there all the time, waiting for you to choose. If you wait until you lose it, it’s too late to regret .I think you should know what I'm talking about. You should think about it carefully. If you keep avoiding it, you won't be able to solve the problem."

Hearing these words, Cai Wenji said nothing.Song Ci also knew the entanglement in her heart, so he didn't say much, just patted her on the shoulder lightly, letting her think for herself.

No matter what big things happened outside, Xun You came to Cai Wenji every day without warning.He did not tell Cai Wenji what happened in Jingzhou.

Ever since Song Ci said those words to her that day, Cai Wenji has been thinking about this matter in her heart.Coupled with the fact that Xun You came to report every day, she felt that she could not delay any longer.After hesitating for a long time, Cai Wenji finally made a decision to go back to her hometown.

Hearing that she was going back to her hometown, Song Ci was also relieved.Cai Wenji's hometown is Chenliu, which now belongs to Cao Cao's territory, and it is also the place where Cao Cao raised his troops and made his fortune.Cao Cao and Cai Yong, Cai Wenji's father, had a deep friendship. If Cai Wenji went there, she would definitely receive special care from Cao Cao.

Once a decision was made, Cai Wenji did not procrastinate, and immediately packed up her things and prepared to return home.Song Ci also wanted her to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible, so he was happy to see it succeed.

Song Ci went to Xun You again and told him what Cai Wenji wanted to go back to.Her purpose is very clear, and now the war is in chaos, which is very uneven.I can't go back with Cai Wenji, and it's very unsafe if she goes on the road alone.Xun You now plays an important role in Jingzhou. If he asked Liu Biao to send someone to escort Cai Wenji back to his hometown, Liu Biao would definitely agree.As long as you reach the boundary of Yanzhou and send someone to notify Cao Cao, he will naturally send someone to meet him.

When he heard the news that Cai Wenji was going back to his hometown, Xun You still had no expression on his face. After a long silence, he nodded to express his understanding.Song Ci didn't say much to him, but only briefly mentioned the matter of escort.A smart person like Xun You certainly knows what to do, and he doesn't even have to say it himself.

Soon Cai Wenji left Jingzhou and went north to Yanzhou under the escort of Liu Biao's men.When parting, Cai Wenji told Song Ci on the third day that if something happened in her hometown, she must come to Chenliu to find her, but Song Ci was vague and did not agree.

After sending Cai Wenji away, Song Ci also left Jingzhou under the banner of returning home to worship his parents.Of course, her departure was superficial. In fact, Song Ci just quietly moved to another place and another hill.

Pang Tong knew about Song Ci's quiet move.After all, this guy is as smart as a ghost, and it's not easy to hide from him.It was also rare for Song Ci to make close friends, so he told him.The place Song Ci chose was recommended by Pang Tong.This place is very close to the place where Pang Tong's uncle Pang Degong lives in seclusion.

After moving, Song Ci changed his name and surname, dressed in men's clothes, and honestly farmed in the mountains.This time, she is determined to be a low-key person, and will never engage in any fairy tricks again.

Song Ci wanted to keep a low profile, but unfortunately someone prevented her from keeping a low profile.

At that time, there were very few residents in the mountain. A new neighbor suddenly moved around his house, and Mr. Pound naturally knew about it very quickly.In addition, my nephew seems to be very speculative with the newly moved boy, and often visits him.Duke Pound has no reason not to know.So, he asked Pang Tong to invite Song Ci to be a guest, which was also a small gesture of affection between neighbors.

Pang Tong told Song Ci what his uncle meant, and Song Ci couldn't refuse, so he followed.

This time, something big will happen.As soon as he saw Song Ci, Pang Degong spoke amazingly.He pointed to Song Ci who came in with Pang Tong and said: "This is very human. The rise and fall of the Han family is really due to you."
