“Uncle Chen! You are back!” Aside fro the one in for quite a while, the end results should be good However, the others had also heard Kuai Liang’s angry shouts
Chen Kang still had a lifeless expression He had never seen Kuai Liang act this way before He was so chocked he did not hear Kuai Ran’s question On the other hand, his actions caused the others to think that Kuai Liang still refused to coo and take a rest for tonight and discuss things in the
Liu Mang was disappointed Did Kuai Liang have to be so stubborn? Keeping to his principles was a good thing but not during e did not even kno to describe this kind of stubbornness
“Milord Let us wait for to’s shoulder It was better for them to just take a rest now
“Seehed
“Wait!” Chen Kang regained his wits just as Liu Mang was about to leave
“Uncle Chen Is so?”
“Sir The Master said that he will roup
“Huh?” The sudden infor He looked pleasantly surprised and stopped walking “Is Uncle Chen speaking the truth?”
“Yes!” Chen Kang replied as his hand was grabbed by a very excited Liu Mang
“I a quickly spoke
Meanwhile, Kuai Ran was feeling baffled as he wondered what kind of relationshi+p his uncle shared with Liu Mang especially when Kuai Liang would not even give face to his own nephew
After a short ed man came out froreeted and quickly cupped his fist The person that appeared was his uncle Kuai Liang
Kuai Ran stepped forward thinking that his uncle would reply his greeting He also wanted to introduce ‘Brother wang’ to his uncle and talk about how they became friends After all, he and his uncle seldom saw each other after his uncle moved out However, Kuai Ran soon found out that he was just an extra
“Move aside” Kuai Liang simply said as he pushed his nephew aside The reason he did this was because Kuai Ran was blocking his way
“Uncle!” Kuai Ran felt a bit discontented but that feeling i of Jingzhou did not realize Your Highness is the one visiting this late at night Please forgivelowered hi
“Uncle?” Kuai Ran was confused Kuai Liang only had a few people that were superior to himself such as Liu Biao, Cai Mao, and Kuai Yue However, people like Cai Mao wouldn’t be able towhile Kuai Yue would not be able to do so because of a difference in opinion between the two brothers Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue were now cold to each other Kuai Liang would definitely not bow respectfully to Kuai Yue There were no others in Jingzhou with higher rank Kuai Ran initially thought that wang Shu was just his father’s old acquaintance which is why he was even more confused about this situation
“Stupid boy! This is His Highness, the King of Shu!” Kuai Liang scolded as he slapped the top of Kuai Ran’s head
“Huh?” Kuai Ran voiced out1
“The King of Shu? Brother wang? The King of Shu?” Kuai Ran looked at Liu Mang and then back to his uncle
“Your Highness This is Your Highness’s seal Please keep it properly!” Kuai Liang returned the token As the box carried by Chen Kang had broken2, the returned token rapped in a silk cloth
The token was a seal It was Liu Mang’s signature and proof of identity Looking at it was like looking at Liu Mang hie cri The large seal here was the genuine article
“We greet Your Highness!” Chen Kang and the other servants quickly knelt down Kuai Ran also needed to kneel even if he was the heir to the Kuai Family as he had no post
“Brother Kuai I aized as he helped Kuai Ran stand back up
“wang Shu! Shu wang3! I should have known!” Kuai Ran laughed bitterly
“Is there a reason Your Highness paidasked He heard about Kuai Ran and Liu Mang going to the brothel and that Liu Mang bought Kuai Ran a wo would also not visit hi is I need your help with! Is it possible for Mister Kuai Liang to spare so was half the work done After all, everyone in Jingzhou hated Liu Mang This is because Liu Mang and Lu Bu captured their land and caused huge da even recruited troops that initially fought for Jingzhou such as Gan Ning and his navy All of this were like destroying people’s livelihood On top of that, he evenwas friendly towards Liu Mang because Kuai Liang was friends with Yang Hong
“Of course! I haven’t slept! We can discuss untilreplied His reply e Initially, he would not coh his own nephew called for hiht The disparity was too big
“That’s great Let us talk in a quiet place!” Liu Mang said happily The two of the led Liu Mang to the study Meanwhile, the others go to the roo
When the two reached the study, they found that the rooht a candle and even prepared tea
“Your Highness Have so Liu Mang was also thirsty so he picked up the cup and drank the tea
His itated his wound, causing hi noticed Liu Mang’s pained expression and not long after that, also noticed the wound on Liu Mang’s arhness? Is the law still being upheld in Xiangyang?” Kuai Liang shouted angrily after he saw Liu Mang’s injury As he was the one in charge of Xiangyang and the guards, he would definitely be angry that Liu Mang got injured in Xiangyang
“Don’twaved his hand He did not kno to explain the incident involving the barbarian to Kuai Liang It is not like he could just say that he got injured saving Kuai Liang’s nephew That would be like purposefully taking credit for things
“This Xiangyang is in a h Liu Mang did not say anything, Kuai Liang still knew that Liu Mang got injured by a weapon in Xiangyang Even if he had already been pro Liu Mang did not realize he had accidentally s in order This would eventually cause a lot of suffering for the children of the nobles
“Mister Kuai Liang I cazhou! I hope that you will be able to extend a helping hand to save the people!” Liu Mang said as he bowed towards Kuai Liang
“Your Highness Youquickly hurried forward and supported Liu Mang Liu Mang was the King of Shu while he was only the Duke of Xiangyang The differences in their position was huge As a stubborn person, he had high i
“The people in Yangzhou? Is this concerning the provisions?” Kuai Liang asked
“Yes!”
Kuai Liang frowned the moment he heard this In his opinion, they should sell the provisions to Liu Mang since Liu Mang was already here His brother and Cai Mao wanted to use Liu Mang as a hostage to keep Lu Bu in check It would be dishonest to not sell provisions to Liu Mang now
To Kuai Liang, there was nothing wrong with selling Liu Mang provisions They would be able to for with any other invaders frotze River Cao Cao was about to win Once he did, the Central Plains and Yangtze would be next
Lu Bu was strong and could becozhou could simply sit at a side and provide Lu Bu with provisions while watching Lu Bu and Cao Cao kill each other
If Lu Bu were to win, his ar foundation Jingzhou would easily be able to move North and take over On the other hand, if Cao Cao were to win, he would be too weak to launch another invasion This zhou would have at least another fifty years of peace
This was sozhou, yet nobody proposed it It is definitely not because they lacking talented people After all, Jingzhou was extre even understood what the nobles were doing All of the for opportunity4 Even Cai Mao and Kuai Yue had already sent envoys to Xudou, Cao Cao’s territory, to make connections The same Cao Cao that was the reason for o, Liu Biao promised to sell me three hundred thousand provisions My ariven advance payed his xia!” Liu Mang poured out his grievances to Kuai Liang This was fraud
“The situation at Jiangxia ht now, the battle going on at Jiangxia was a battle of attrition Both sides already had plenty of provisions, enough to last for two years While the soldiers do need provisions, they do not need it urgently Thistricks
“I will not hide this froate and have found out that this is because of that Blacky5 Pang!” Liu Mang spoke hatefully when hewith a nickname due to his intense hatred for thewas stunned for a while and then sster!”
Kuai Liang was very faht Pang Tong with hied that he would become an acco Tong had already proven hih Liu Bei was a weak leader, he was still the one governing Yuzhou He was the Left General while Pang Tong was his her rank than hi went to see Liu Biao”
