C1 The Son of a Concubine

Early in the morning, the sun was rising. Golden rays of light illuminated the Xiangyang City.

On the deserted street, Liu Xiu ran towards the State Governor's Mansion while facing the rising sun. Liu Xiu was the youngest son of Liu Biao, the Prefecture Overseer of Jing Prefecture. Because he was born a bastard, he had seen Liu Biao a few times since he grew up.

When he ran to the back door of State Governor's Mansion, Liu Xiu was just about to enter when he saw a woman with a seductive figure walking out with a tight face and a huff.

Liu Xiu recognized the woman in front of him. She was his servant, Qing Liu, Second Brother Liu Cong's maid.

Lu Liu stood with her hands on her hips and scolded in a stern voice. Liu Xiu, you idiot. I told you yesterday that Sun Quan's envoy will come to visit. You, on the other hand, sneaked out early in the morning. " State Governor gave you a rare opportunity to show your face, but you didn't take it seriously. No wonder you weren't valued. A bastard is a bastard. He's willing to degenerate. "

Liu Xiu acted as if he didn't hear what Luliu said. He asked with an indifferent tone. "Are you done?"

Luliu's face was full of disdain. Her eyes were full of disdain. She said sarcastically, "What's wrong? Aren't you nice to hear? A piece of trash like you is born to embarrass the Prefecture Overseer..."

Liu Xiu's eyes turned cold as he suddenly waved his right hand.

"Pa!"

A slap landed on Green Willow's face.

Luliu covered her burning face and was lost in thought. In the blink of an eye, Luliu's eyes were fierce. She screamed, "Liu Xiu, how dare you hit me? "I am Young Master Cong's man. If you hit me, Young Master Cong will not forgive you."

A cold killing intent flashed across Liu Xiu's eyes as he waved his hand again.

"Pa!"

A resounding slap sounded once again. It stunned Luliu.

Liu Xiu wiped his hands and his eyes returned to normal, as if nothing had happened. "No matter what, I am the son of the Prefecture Overseer. You are just a maid who sold herself as a slave. If I go all out and complain to my father and you complain to Second Brother, do you think you will die? Or will I be punished?"

Luliu had a ferocious look in her eyes, as if she wanted to kill Liu Xiu. If Liu Xiu really did not care about the punishment and complained, With Liu Biao's personality, even if he hated Liu Xiu, he would still kill Luliu to serve as a warning to others.

Luliu's eyes were filled with hatred, unwillingness, and doubt.

In her impression, Liu Xiu was a weak and self-pitying person. He was a person who could be bullied at will. The Liu Xiu in front of her was cold and domineering. He was even more domineering than before. It made her feel a chill in her heart.

Was this still the Liu Xiu in her memory?

Luliu quickly searched through her memories, only to find that she only remembered that Liu Xiu had a serious illness three months ago, and after that, she did not see Liu Xiu again.

Liu Xiu waved his hand and instructed. "Get out of my way. Don't block my way."

Luliu's eyes were filled with resentment as she reluctantly retreated to the side.

Liu Xiu walked into the mansion, clenched his fists, and then released them. From today onwards, he would no longer be the Liu Xiu that everyone could bully.

As a matter of fact, this was Liu Xiu's third life.

In his first life, Liu Xiu was an ordinary white-collar worker in the Republic. He was busy making a living. In his second life, he became Liu Xiu. Because he was the son of Liu Biao's concubine, his status was low and he had no ambition. With an attitude that allowed him to live, he finally surrendered to Cao Cao with Liu Cong. He lived under someone else's roof and died alone.

Three months ago, he was reborn once again.

This year was eleven years of Jianan.

Cao Cao pacified Bingzhou, sent troops to suppress Wu Huan, and was about to redeem Cai Yan. Liu Bei sought talents everywhere, and was about to ask Zhuge Liang to come out.

Two years later, Cao Cao went down to Jing Prefecture and started the Battle of Red Cliff.

After experiencing two lives and experiencing the vicissitudes of life, Liu Xiu's mentality had changed a long time ago. He was reborn again, unwilling to live under someone else's roof, unwilling to be bullied again.

In this life, he wanted to change himself, and even more so the Jing Prefecture.

Liu Biao could not defend the Jing Prefecture, and Liu Cong could not defend it. In that case, he would defend it, and he would be the master of the Jing Prefecture!

Liu Xiu had been waiting for an opportunity after being reborn for three months. According to the memories of his previous life, Sun Quan's envoy, Looh Su, came to visit today. In the end, Liu Biao lost all his face.

In his previous life, he had watched coldly from the sidelines.

In this life, he would not sit idly by and do nothing.

It was because this was his chance!

With steady steps, Liu Xiu returned to the courtyard, changed his clothes, and walked towards the main hall.

Liu Xiu had just walked to the entrance of the main hall when provocative words came from the main hall. "Third brother is also eighteen years old. It's time to be sensible. Looh Su's visit today is very important. Why did you sneak out to play in the morning?"

The person who spoke was around twenty years old. He was elegant and elegant.

This person was Liu Cong.

Facing Liu Cong, Liu Xiu was neither servile nor overbearing. He said, "It's still early. Why is Second Brother in such a hurry? My father ordered me to participate. Father didn't say anything, but Second Brother was already yelling at him. Could it be that Second Brother can take charge of the matter on father's behalf?"

Liu Cong slapped the table and stood up. He said angrily, "What did you say?"

For the first time, Liu Xiu dared to refute his words, which made Liu Cong furious.

Liu Xiu looked at Liu Cong and sneered in his heart. This Second Brother of his was vengeful and bullied the weak and feared the strong. After inheriting the Jing Prefecture, he surrendered to Cao Cao and became a bird in the cage of Cao Cao.

Facing Liu Cong, Liu Xiu was not afraid at all. He said, "Second Brother is only 20 years old. He has good ears and bright eyes. Could it be that he can't hear me clearly?"

"You... Humph, we will see."

Liu Cong's face was fierce. He hated Liu Cong in his heart. He thought to himself, "When Looh Su's matter is over, let's see how I deal with you. How dare a bastard provoke you? You are courting death.

"Second brother, third brother, don't fight for it anymore. We are a family. Why do you have to do this?"

On the left side of the hall, a tall young man with a gentle and refined face spoke.

This person was Liu Qi.

When Liu Xiu saw Liu Qi, he sighed in his heart. Liu Qi chose to believe in Liu Bei, but she was eaten until not even her bones were left. It was Liu Qi who hurt herself when she fought with the tiger.

Liu Xiu glanced at Liu Cong and cupped his hands. "Big brother's words are reasonable. What's the point of fighting in the dark? If you have the guts, go and bully Su Looh Su."

Liu Cong said angrily, "Liu Xiu, what did you say?"

Liu Xiu sighed, "It seems Second Brother is really sick, and he is also very sick."

Liu Qi saw that the two of them were at loggerheads with each other and tried to persuade them again, "Father is almost here. Both of you take a step back. If father sees you, it will not be good."

Liu Cong snorted and did not speak anymore but his heart was filled with anger.

Liu Xiu sat down and closed his eyes to rest.

"State Governor is here!"

Not long after, the servant's voice came from outside the hall.

Under the light of the morning sun, Liu Biao walked over with big strides. He was nearly seventy years old and his body was already very weak. His face was covered with dense age spots. In order to maintain his spirit, Liu Biao held a small piece of ginseng in his mouth. His spirit was very good.

Liu Xiu stood up with Liu Qi and Liu Cong to welcome them. His eyes were calm, as if he had seen a stranger. This was his father, Liu Biao.

After Liu Biao took his seat, the officials and generals of Jing Prefecture took their seats in the hall.

"The envoy from Jiangdong has arrived!"

Outside the hall, the attendant's loud and clear voice resounded once again.

"Tap! Tap!"

The steady footsteps approached from afar.

Looh Su wore a Virtuous Crown and a black shirt with a collar. He strode over. He was over eight feet tall and had a square face. His eyes were solemn. He looked righteous and dignified.

Behind Looh Su were two warriors.

Walking into the hall, Looh Su cupped his hands and said, "Lieutenant Looh Su of Jiangdong greets Liu Jingzhou."

Liu Biao was unhappy when he saw that Looh Su did not bow, but he did not get angry. He said in a deep voice, "Lieutenant Lu has come to visit, what is the matter?"

Looh Su replied, "Replying to Liu Jingzhou, my lord hopes that the Sun and Liu families will temporarily stop fighting and become friends."

Liu Biao said coldly, "The one who initiated the war has always been Sun Quan."

Looh Su seemed very calm and neither servile nor overbearing. He said, "Liu Jingzhou, forgive me. The reason why my lord started the war is because his father's revenge has not been avenged and it is hard for him to sleep all night. As long as Liu Jingzhou hands over Huang Zu, the Sun and Liu families will be repaired. The Jiangdong and Jing Prefecture will be ruled by the river, and we will live in harmony."

Liu Biao flicked his sleeves. "Definitely not!"

Huang Zu was Liu Biao's trusted general. He was in charge of the Jiangxia, so Liu Biao could not cut off his own arm.

Looh Su was not in a hurry. He said, "This is really hard to handle!"

Liu Biao was very unhappy in his heart. He waved his hand and said, "Go back and tell Sun Quan that if you want to fight, then fight."

Looh Su's eyes seemed to be a little flustered. He hurriedly said, "Liu Jingzhou, calm down. How about this? Jiangdong will send a junior general to challenge the young generation of Jing Prefecture. "Jing Prefecture has won. I will make peace with them. If Jiangdong is lucky enough to win, please ask Liu Jingzhou to get Huang Zu to apologize. In that case, the two families will still hold their weapons temporarily. "

Liu Xiu clenched his fists and narrowed his eyes.

Others might not know Looh Su's purpose, but Liu Xiu knew it very well.

Firstly, Looh Su took the opportunity to challenge the young generation of Jing Prefecture to humiliate Liu Biao. Secondly, Sun Quan took the initiative to show weakness. He was deliberately trying to numb Liu Biao.

After both sides stopped fighting, Sun Quan would wait for an opportunity to launch a deadly attack to kill Huang Zu and seize the Jiangxia.

Liu Biao did not know Sun Quan's intention. After listening to Looh Su's words, he thought that Sun Quan was afraid, so he took the initiative to show weakness. Liu Biao was in a good mood. He waved his hand and said, "I allow your request. Who will you send?"
