On the surface, Liu Bei didn't show any abnormality, and said:

"Tao Gong's health will not be a problem in a few years. I will find a good doctor to show you someday. It will definitely make you live a few more years!"

Tao Qian waved his hand and said:

"I don't want to live a few more years. One year is already enough. I asked you to come here this time for another matter."

Liu Bei feigned surprise and said:

"Oh...? What's the matter with Mr. Tao? Just do what you say."

Tao Qian continued to speak:

"This time, you are here for the purpose of passing on the jade seal of the country."

Upon hearing this, Liu Bei hurriedly asked:

"Oh...? The Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom? As far as I know, the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom has been lost? Where is it now? How did Mr. Tao know about it?"

Tao Qian signaled Liu Bei not to be impatient, and said to Liu Bei:

"Xuande, don't worry, listen to me in detail. I received a letter a few days ago. It was written by Runan Yuan Shu, and it was actually stamped with the seal of Chuan Guo Yuxi!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Bei was surprised and said:

"Could it be that Yuan Shu found the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom from the palace and took it for himself? But why did he write the letter with the seal of the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom?"

Tao Qian said:

"Yuan Shu said in the letter that he has obtained the Jade Seal of Chuanguo and is about to proclaim himself emperor. He wrote this letter so that I can submit to him."

When Liu Bei heard this, he became anxious, surrendering to Yuan Shu?Then won't Xuzhou be Yuan Shu in the future?Tao Qian must not be made to submit to Yuan Shu, so Liu Bei said:

"Duke Tao can't submit to Yuan Shu's command. Relying on his family background of four generations and three princes, this person wants to become emperor after getting the Jade Seal of the Kingdom. This Yuan Shu is a thief who steals the country! Be sure to kill him!"

Tao Qian was overjoyed and continued to say:

"Xuande has the same idea as the old man. We are all loyal to the great Han. The Liu family is orthodox. Although His Majesty the Emperor is now under house arrest by Cao Cao, the descendants of the Liu family are all over the world. As long as the descendants of the Liu family can get this inheritance Yuxi, I will definitely be able to re-establish my Han Dynasty!"

After hearing Tao Qian's words, Liu Bei was already a little eager to try. If he could get the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, wouldn't it be justified?At that time, if there is a hundred responses, and all the rebellious officials and thieves are wiped out, won't he be able to ascend the throne as the emperor?

Just listen to Tao Qian continue to say:

"According to the report from the spies, Cao Cao of Yanzhou and Yuan Shao of Jizhou are planning to lead troops to attack Yuan Shu. The two of them also want to snatch the Jade Seal of Chuanguo. Peaceful."

Liu Bei nodded and said:

"Cao Cao put the emperor under house arrest. If he was allowed to get the Jade Seal of the Kingdom, wouldn't he dare to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor? If he forced the emperor to give up the throne to him, even the people in the world would have nothing to say, and he couldn't get it. Yuan Shao and that Yuan Shu are of the same breed, let alone let him get the Jade Seal of Chuanguo!"

Tao Qian listened and said:

"Xuande, you are the best candidate now. You are a member of the royal family and hold soldiers and horses. I will support you in the rear. If you can get the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, then you can sit in Xuzhou. Use the Jade Seal of Chuanguo to attract those who are loyal to the emperor and patriotism to join him, then you must not forget how my Tao family helped you!"

Liu Bei was very happy when he heard Tao Qian's words. He originally wanted to say that he was going to crusade against Yuan Shu and take back the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, but he thought that if he opened his mouth, it would show that he was quite ambitious. Now that Tao Qian said it, Liu Bei was of course Climb along the pole, only to hear Liu Bei say:

"Even if Bei risked his life, he still had to take back the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom, and then rescued the emperor, and handed over the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom to the emperor. At that time, I would not forget Duke Tao's great kindness!"

When Tao Qian heard Liu Bei's hypocritical words, he almost couldn't help sitting up and slapping Liu Bei. After thinking about it, he held back. It was the most important thing, so Tao Qian said:

"Xuande should send troops as soon as possible. Cao Cao and Yuan Shao have already sent troops. How much food and grass do you want? I will ask Shang'er to prepare for you. How many troops do you need to bring?"

After hearing this, Liu Bei stood there and thought for a while, then said:

"The sooner the troops are dispatched, the better. As for the food and grass, Mr. Tao has given enough food and grass in the past few years. It is enough to bring [-] troops to feed for a year. This time, we are going to send [-] soldiers Bring all the horses, just in case."

When Tao Qian heard that Liu Bei had so much food and grass, it was enough to feed 5 people for a year. Thinking about the food and grass that Liu Bei had given to Liu Bei in the past few years, he felt that it was a pity for the food, so he opened his mouth and said to Liu Bei:

"Since Xuande has already decided, I will not keep Xuande. I hope that Xuande will go well this time. No matter what, Xuande must come back after obtaining the Jade Seal of the Chuanguo. By then, you will have the Jade Seal of the Chuanguo in your hand." , I will hand over Xuzhou to you again, and no one will dare to say anything."

Liu Bei was very happy in his heart. If he could get the Chuanguo Yuxi and then Xuzhou, it would be a double blessing. He didn't expect his luck to come, and he couldn't stop it.

Liu Bei cupped his hands towards Tao Qian, and said:

"Don't worry, Mr. Tao. I will definitely come back after I get the Jade Seal of Chuanguo. I will tell Mr. Tao the good news. Maybe Mr. Tao will recover by then. Then I will leave now and go back to rectify the troops and set off for Runan."

Tao Qian nodded and said:

"Xuande must be careful all the way, and come back after taking the Jade Seal of Chuanguo. There must be no accidents, let alone fighting! Shang'er, go and see Xuande off."

Liu Bei bid farewell to Tao Qian, and accompanied by the Tao merchants, he left the gate of the prefect's mansion. Liu Bei walked with his head held high and his chest held high.

As soon as they returned to the camp, someone called Guan Yu and Zhang Fei over.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei didn't know what had happened, his elder brother had someone call him in such a hurry, when Guan Yu and Zhang Fei came to Liu Bei's camp at the same time, Liu Bei looked at them with a happy face, and spoke to each other. The two said:

"Brothers, now the time for us to stand up is coming."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Fei hurriedly asked:

"Oh...? Brother, did something good happen to you?"

Liu Bei smiled and said:

"Today, Mr. Tao called me to discuss matters. I thought he was going to hand over Xuzhou to me. I didn't expect that there is something more gratifying than this."

Zhang Fei scratched his head anxiously, and urged:

"Brother, what are you trying to tell us here?"

Liu Bei signaled Zhang Fei not to worry, and said:

"When I went to the prefect's mansion this time, Tao Gong told me that Yuan Shu got the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom and wanted to become emperor. I am going to lead my troops to snatch the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom back."
