Chapter 840: Liu Zhang's Prestige Determines Liu Biao's Attitude

In the meeting hall of the State Shepherd's Mansion, the subordinates of the State Shepherd's Mansion actually reported to Cai Mao first!

This is simply the greatest joke in the world, far from the greatness of the world!

However, Cai Hao, who was so excited, didn't notice Liu Biao's gloomy face at all, and immediately gave orders to the soldiers.

"Please!"

The arrival of Deng Zhi seemed to make Cai Mao grasp the straw.

What was previously a dark and bleak prospect seems to be brightening.

"Lord Zhou Mu, since Yizhou formed an alliance with us, it has never officially sent an envoy!"

"This time Liu Zhang sent Deng Zhi here, it will definitely help Jingzhou!"

Liu Biao ignored Cai Mao's surprise voice and quietly waited for Deng Zhi's arrival.

Not long after, under the leadership of the soldiers, Deng Zhi came to the meeting hall.

Seeing Deng Zhi's immature face, everyone in the hall was shocked.

Unexpectedly, Liu Zhang sent this brat as an envoy!

Deng Zhi stepped forward quickly and bowed to Liu Biao who was sitting on the main seat.

"Yizhou is engaged in Deng Zhi, meet Liu Jingzhou!"

Liu Biao showed a kind smile, and casually reached out for help.

"Deng is exempt from courtesy!"

"Thank you Liu Jingzhou!"

After Deng Zhi got up, he swept his eyes across the crowd, and finally stopped on Cai Mao who was beside Liu Biao.

"Surely this is General Cai Mao?"

Cai Mao cupped his hands slightly, and behaved very politely.

"That's right, it's Cai."

"My lord often praises General Cai for his bravery, and seeing him today really deserves his reputation!"

Cai Mao's eyes lit up, and it was a joy to be praised by Liu Zhang.

"General Wei is too famous, how dare Cai Mao be it! Hahaha!"

Seeing Cai Mao's proud appearance, everyone in the room showed disdain.

This Cai Mao is really thick-skinned!

Have you forgotten that not long ago in Dangyang, you were beaten by Liu Bei and the 30,000 army was completely lost?

How can this trash who has been defeated and defeated repeatedly deserve such praise?

Especially Liu Biao, his eyes were full of disdain.

At this moment, Deng Zhi raised her hand, interrupting Cai Mao's laughter.

"General Cai, the title is about to change."

Cai Mao was slightly taken aback, but did not understand Deng Zhi's meaning.

"Name? Who's name?"

"Of course it's my master!"

"A month ago, His Majesty has promoted General Wei to Duke Qin, allowing the establishment of the Duke of Qin!"

Duke Qin!

As soon as he said it, everyone was shocked!

Everyone was dumbfounded, their eyes full of doubts.

"Isn't Deng Zong joking?"

Liu Biao looked at Deng Zhi in astonishment, and he couldn't accept this fact.

Deng Zhi smiled, he had already guessed the reaction of everyone.

"How dare I speak nonsense on such a big matter?"

"The envoy to Xuchang is also an envoy, and everything is personally appointed by His Majesty!"

"My lord was bestowed by His Majesty on Duke Qin, enfeoffed as Guanzhong, and supervised the military affairs of the three prefectures of Yong, Liang, and Yi!"

There was still an uproar in the room, and everyone was whispering, marveling at the reaction to this incident.

Liu Biao's face was very bright, thinking that he was an official in the same dynasty as Liu Zhang's father Liu Yan.

Unexpectedly, after a lapse of twenty years, Liu Zhang, a junior, came from behind and became the Duke in one fell swoop!

Duke, prince!

This is the title that everyone dreams of, and the clan members of the Han Dynasty are no exception, because they can legally obtain these titles.

"Deng Eng, why did Your Majesty suddenly promote General Wei to the Duke of Qin?"

Liu Biao asked, without hiding his salivation.

If possible, Liu Biao is also willing to fight for the position of Duke Chu!

Deng Zhi couldn't see Liu Biao's careful thoughts, and immediately showed a deep smile.

"Duke Qin wiped out 200,000 Xianbei troops in the first battle, slaughtered 100,000, and buried 100,000 alive!"

"The two Xianbei masters, Ke Bineng and Fu Luohan, were both decapitated!"

"Now outside Xiaoguan, not only are the corpses of two Xianbei lords and one hundred thousand Xianbei people buried, there are also inscriptions engraved on them."

"The offender dies!"

…

silence.

The room suddenly fell into a dead silence, and no one dared to make any noise.

grunt...

Someone's swallowing sound brought a little life to this still picture.

Immediately there was an uproar.

Kill 100,000, bury 100,000, Lord Xianbei!

The offender dies!

Just hearing these news, everyone couldn't help but be excited!

Especially the generals in the house, they couldn't imagine how spectacular it would be to stand on Xiaoguan City and see this scene!

"Wei... No! Duke Qin is really domineering, Cai Mao admires him!"

Cai Mao's praise also made Liu Biao wake up from his horror, and he also praised.

"Duke Qin, you deserve your name!"

Cai Mao seemed to have thought of something, and quickly looked at Deng Zhi.

"Deng Zong, so the Yongliang battle is over?"

Deng Zhi smiled and nodded.

"That's right, Duke Qin has already occupied all of Guanzhong."

"Prime Minister Cao deliberately gave up Hongnong County and Hedong County, and made friends with Duke Qin forever!"

Liu Biao stared again, showing horror.

"What? Prime Minister Cao?"

"Still befriending Qin Gongyong?"

If Cao Cao and Liu Zhang are married forever, isn't Liu Zhang's next goal...

Just when Liu Biao was terrified, Deng Zhi suddenly showed an apologetic expression.

"By the way, Your Majesty has declared Cao Sikong as Prime Minister Cao."

"I was negligent, please Liu Jingzhou forgive me."

Liu Biao forced out a smile, how dare he blame Deng Zhi.

"Deng doesn't have to be like this! This time I came to Jingzhou, but what's the matter with Mr. Qin?"

It's nothing for Liu Zhang to be promoted to the Duke of Qin. After all, it will not harm Liu Biao's interests.

But forming an alliance with Cao Cao is different. Everyone in the world knows that only Liu Biao and Cao Cao border on Liu Zhang's forces.

Deng Zhi's coming this time may affect Liu Zhang's future power attitude!

Liu Biao made a decision in his mind at the moment, so he had to deal with it carefully.

Deng Zhi saluted Liu Biao again.

"To tell you the truth, Liu Jingzhou, I am here on behalf of Duke Qin this time, and I do have important matters to discuss!"

"Deng can speak out as much as he can!"

The scene suddenly quieted down, and all eyes were on Deng Zhi.

Every sentence Deng Zhi said next, every condition, can almost represent the future destiny of Jingzhou.

The future relationship with Qin Gong, or the future of Qin State, depends on the next conversation!

Deng Zhi tidied up his attire. He came here on behalf of Qin, and he should show the demeanor of a great country.

First, his eyes swept over the crowd, and finally fell on Liu Biao before he opened his mouth slowly.

"Qin Gong wants Liu Jingzhou to return the people who flooded into Nanyang County from Guanzhong before."

Liu Biao heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, this request is not excessive at all.

These people were resettled in Nanxiang near Wuguan and several counties in Shunyang.

The number of people who fled from Guanzhong to Nanyang was not many, only about 100,000.

"Don't worry about Deng Zong, Benzhou Mu immediately ordered these people to be driven into Wuguan, and they are not allowed to enter Nanyang!"

Liu Biao agreed very readily without any consideration.

Deng Zhi didn't expect it to go so smoothly, so she quickly bowed her hands and thanked her.

"Thank you Liu Jingzhou, Duke Qin has one more request."

"Speaking!"

"I hope Liu Jingzhou will give us Wuguan!"

Liu Biao was shocked when he heard this, and immediately rejected Deng Zhi's request without any consideration.

"what!"

"Ceded Wuguan! No way!"
