C10 I Would like to Ask Pang Degong for Advice

In the Xiangyang in May, the weather was neither hot nor cold. Liu Xiu left the mansion for his morning exercise before dawn. After returning to the mansion, Liu Xiu washed up and finished his breakfast. Then, he left the State Governor's Mansion early in the morning. In the State Governor's Mansion, he could not see Liu Biao and was not liked by others, so he decided to leave the mansion. However, Liu Biao's condition had not fully recovered, so he did not dare to go to the Luhmen Mountain again. After all, he was too far away from home.

Under Liu Biao's rule, the Xiangyang City was very prosperous. Walking on the streets of the Xiangyang City, people came and went, and it was very lively.

Liu Xiu felt even closer when he was in it.

This land was his homeland.

After he surrendered to Liu Cong in his previous life, he also left Xiangyang. Since then, he had never returned to Xiangyang. When he died, he died in a foreign land. Now that he was in it, it felt very different.

Liu Xiu leisurely walked until he finally arrived outside a restaurant.

The restaurant was called the Lotus Fragrance Restaurant, and it was backed by the lake water. Because there were lotus flowers in the lake, it was called the Lotus Fragrance Restaurant. During the fifth month, lotus leaves covered the surface of the lake, and numerous budding flower buds were produced. The scenery was pleasant.

At this time of year, there were many people coming to the Lotus Fragrance Restaurant.

The Lotus Fragrance Restaurant was divided into two floors. The downstairs was set up with seats, and the guests were sitting in the lobby in twos and threes.

The second floor was separated into private rooms by curtains.

Liu Xiu had arrived early, and there were not many people in the Lotus Fragrance Restaurant. He went straight to the second floor and found a quiet place to sit and appreciate the lotus lake behind the Lotus Fragrance Restaurant.

The sun rose and the sunlight was brilliant. The golden sunlight sprinkled on the lotus lake. The sparkling dewdrops reflected rays of light, making the entire lotus lake look even more pleasant.

A pot of tea, a person enjoying the beautiful scenery alone.

Liu Xiu sipped the tea and looked at the scenery outside the window. His mind gradually calmed down.

During the period of his rebirth, he spent all his time scheming for his future. He was thinking about how to establish himself in this chaotic world and how to seize the opportunity to rise up and prevent the power of Jing Prefecture from falling into Liu Cong's hands.

Today, he had been careful with every step he took, worried that he would lose everything if he took a wrong step. Liu Xiu stared blankly at the lake full of lotus leaves and budding buds, but his mood suddenly relaxed.

His heart was completely free. He no longer thought about anything and only wanted to enjoy the beautiful scenery in front of him.

"Step! Step!"

Footsteps came from the corridor.

Liu Xiu came back to his senses and looked towards the direction of the sound. He saw three people with refined temperament, dressed in a shirt with a broad collar, walking over. The three of them chatted happily and finally took their seats in the private room next to Liu Xiu. Through the curtain, Liu Xiu could only vaguely see the faces of the three people. Among the three of them, the elder had gray hair and gray hair. He was around 60 years old. The other two were about the same age, both in their early 40's.

"Duke De, how is the scenery of the Lotus Fragrance Restaurant?"

Among them, a middle-aged man in his early forties asked.

He was thin and gentle, gentle and gentle, kind and kind.

The person called Duke De was the oldest person, and he said, "The Lotus Fragrance Restaurant lives up to its reputation. It's indeed not bad."

The middle-aged man sighed with emotion and said, "Unfortunately, such a good scenery won't last for long."

The old man said, "F * ck, why do you say this?"

The middle-aged man sighed and said, "A few days ago, Looh Su of Jiangdong came to seek peace on behalf of Sun Quan. After that, Jiangdong and Jing Prefecture stopped fighting and made peace. In my opinion, this was probably Sun Quan deliberately showing weakness to the enemy in order to numb Liu Jingzhou. Once Sun Quan recovers, he will definitely break through to the next stage. Sun Quan's father's revenge has yet to be avenged, there is no way he will let this matter rest. Furthermore, if the Jiangdong wanted to expand, it would be impossible for them to leave the Jing Prefecture alone.

The old man said with a smile. I'm afraid your theory is not reliable. "

The middle-aged man lightly smiled and said: "Other than that, I heard that Cao Cao has pacified Bingzhou in the north. Ji Prefecture and Bingzhou have been pacified. I'm afraid that Cao Cao will be freed soon. I'm afraid that the Jing Prefecture won't be able to maintain its peace any longer.

Another middle-aged man said," F * ck, are you trying to scare us? "

"Brother Chengyan, the situation has reached this stage. It is inevitable that there will be no peace. A peaceful day is only one or two years old."

While the three of them chatted, Liu Xiu, who was sitting next door, became excited. In his heart, he felt as if he had broken through iron shoes and found nothing. It was as easy as blowing off dust.

Because of the way the three of them addressed each other, Liu Xiu thought of the identities of the three of them.

F * ck, it was Sima Hui's word.

The word 'virtuous' corresponded to Master Pang De.

Chengyan corresponded to Huang Chengyan.

The names of these three people could be matched, and the age difference was not much. It must be these three people who did not have any worries.

Liu Xiu had always wanted to go to Luhmen Mountain to take him as his master. The last time he went to Luhmen Mountain, he had also wanted to find Master Pang De. He did not expect that he would run into them in the Lotus Fragrance Restaurant now. Liu Xiu tidied his clothes, stood up and lifted the curtain. He walked to the private room where the three of them were sitting.

Through the curtain, he could see the three of them.

Liu Xiu was calm and composed. He cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, gentlemen."

Even though Liu Xiu had met the Son of Heaven in his previous life and had seen a big scene, his heart was calm. However, at this moment, facing Master Pang De and the other two, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Master Pang De hung up the curtain in the private room and asked, "Little friend, what do you want to tell me?" He was also sizing up Liu Xiu. He saw that Liu Xiu was dressed in ordinary clothes, but he was calm and collected. His words were neither servile nor overbearing. He also secretly praised Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu said generously, "May I ask, sir, what is your name?"

"This old man is Master Pang De!"

Master Pang De looked at Liu Xiu with interest. He was interested in Liu Xiu, who had suddenly come to visit.

Liu Xiu bowed to Sima Hui and said, "I just heard that Mr. Degong called you Mr. Sima Hui. Is that Mr. Sima Hui?" Liu Xiu's understanding was due to Liu Biao sending someone to teach him. Liu Biao did not teach Liu Xiu poetry books and did not care about Liu Xiu's life or death, but he asked people to train his manners to avoid losing Liu Biao's face. Because of this, Liu Xiu's every move was dignified and dignified, and he could not find any fault with it.

Sima Hui nodded and said, "I am Sima Hui!"

Huang Chengyan saw that Liu Xiu was about to bow again and quickly said, "I am Huang Chengyan. There is no need to bow."

"Greetings, Mr. Chengyan," Liu Xiu said.

When Liu Xiu heard this, he could not help but bow humbly.

As a junior, he had to be polite.

Master Pang De nodded slightly. Putting aside his identity as a young man, courtesy was not to be picky. Sima Hui came from Yingchuan and stayed in Xiangyang. However, Master Pang De and Huang Chengyan came from aristocratic families in Xiangyang, so they were very particular about etiquette.

Liu Xiu's actions had won their good impression.

Master Pang De praised him in his heart, and his tone was even gentler. He asked, "What is it, young friend?"

Liu Xiu replied, "When I heard that the three of you were talking about the Jing Prefecture, I had some immature thoughts in my heart. I came to ask the three of you for advice." In terms of age, Liu Xiu was not even twenty years old, so he was asking for advice.

Master Pang De ran a school in Luhmen Mountain and waved to many disciples. He was also a good teacher. Liu Xiu took the initiative to ask for guidance. He was happy in his heart and instructed, "Since that's the case, tell me what you think."

Liu Xiu said, "Kid, I think Jing Prefecture can take advantage of this opportunity to rise."

"Hmm, what do you mean by that?"

Sima Hui's eyes narrowed. This was the first time he had heard such a conclusion. Master Pang De and Sima Hui looked at each other. A trace of curiosity could be seen in their eyes. The three of them had discussed the situation of the Jing Prefecture countless times. Their disciples and friends had also discussed it many times. No one had ever believed that the Jing Prefecture could take advantage of the situation and rise to power.

Master Pang De's curiosity was piqued. He said, "I would like to hear more about it."

Huang Chengyan took the initiative to lean in and give Liu Xiu a seat.

Liu Xiu cupped his hands in thanks and went forward to kneel and sit down.
