The charm of language, the charm of beauty, is fully displayed at this moment.

Seeing that Liu Bei agreed, Tao Qian, lying on the bed, looked relieved.

He could find an opportunity to fake his death, and then take his sons, daughters, wife, and concubines away from this troubled place.

With his reputation in his hometown of Danyang, even if he no longer holds an official position in the future, he will be able to provide his family with food and clothing.

However, Brother Liu has always been a ruthless gangster boss, not that delicate crybaby.

hypocrisy?

NO!

Brother Liu never said how kind and righteous he was.

His style of doing things has always been to care about his own people, not outsiders.

Nicknamed "Han Gao Qiqiang"!

After several days of power transfer.

Although Liu Bei had not yet completely won over the hearts of the people, he had basically gained control of the military and political power in Xuzhou.

In the absence of a change of officials, there was nothing unacceptable about who was in charge of Xuzhou for Cao Bao, Mi Zhu, Chen Gui, Wang Lang and others.

It doesn’t matter who you work for, it doesn’t matter who you work for.

"My Lord, Tao Qian is feigning illness."

Sun Qian looked gloomy and whispered in Liu Bei's ear.

"Oh?"

"Gongyou, are you mistaken?"

"Envoy Tao is seriously ill and clearly dying, so why is he feigning illness?"

Liu Bei frowned and asked in surprise.

"It's my fault. I heard it from hearsay."

Sun Qian immediately understood what Liu Bei meant and nodded.

After following Liu Bei for so many years, Sun Qian, Jian Yong and others were definitely not just impressed by Liu Bei's kindness to his own people.

At the same time, they also highly appreciated Liu Bei's way of handling things.

Never hesitate when it is time to be ruthless.

"Let's do this cleanly."

"Even though everyone knows I did it, there's a difference between speculation and confirmation."

"I just took control of Xuzhou, and the people are unstable. If Tao Qian regains power after repelling Cao Cao, I can't refuse."

"So, let him die."

"Then let his two sons return home with his remains."

Liu Bei looked calm and composed, and his words were very indifferent.

"My subordinate understands."

"I got this information by bribing the maidservant in Tao Qian's house."

“Make sure it’s done cleanly.”

Sun Qian nodded and said very seriously.

"I trust Gongyou to do things."

"We have been wandering for many years and finally took Xuzhou. It is time to accomplish great things."

Liu Bei smiled and patted Sun Qian on the shoulder.

At this moment, Liu Bei felt that the haze in his heart had eased a lot.

After years of wandering in troubled times, I, Liu Bei, finally have a decent piece of territory and can be considered a local lord.

Benevolence is just a means.

But if you want to achieve great things in troubled times by relying on benevolence, it is nothing but a foolish dream.

Liu Bei was very clear about his own positioning. His starting point was poor, so he always helped this and that, improved his popularity with passers-by, and looked for opportunities to rise up.

He hadn't found an opportunity for more than ten years, but now he finally found it.

陶府

"Envoy, it's time to take your medicine."

A beautiful maid came in carrying a bowl of medicine.

"Humph, it's just an act for others to see."

"What are you drinking? Go away."

Tao Qian snorted coldly and said unhappily.

"Envoy~"

"It's a male enhancement drug~"

The maid's beautiful eyes were narrowed as she spoke in a delicate voice, emphasizing each word.

"Oh ho ho~"

“You…you you you!”

"How dare you seduce me, you slut!"

"How could this old man be like this?"

"Put down the medicine. I'll teach you a lesson, little slave, so you know how to behave in the future!"

Tao Qian showed a wicked smile and rebuked righteously.

Snap——

"what!!!"

"Not good, not good."

"Someone come quickly!"

"Envoy... Envoy, he..."

Soon, a shrill scream broke the silence of the night.

Thump~thump~thump~thump~thump~thump~

"The ceremony is over!"

"How come the Envoy is so ill and still thinking about that?"

"How would I know? He's already over sixty, and he's still going strong."

Chen Gui and Mi Zhu bowed to the coffin to express their condolences, while talking in low voices.

"Father, father!"

Tao Shang and Tao Ying knelt on one side, their eyes red and swollen, and they howled from time to time.
