Chapter 165

He took Zhang Fei, Taishi Ci, Guo Jia, Fa Zheng, and others into Tancheng.

“Liu Xuande is righteous; this old man, this old man is extremely grateful.”

Tao Tao Qian saw Liu Bei, held Liu Bei’s hand, was extremely excited, and was somewhat incoherent.

Liu Bei smiled.

“Tao Gong has gifted me grain many times; coming to aid this time is also a matter of righteousness. Moreover, Cao Cao is slaughtering the innocent in Taking Xuzhou, so I cannot sit idly by!”

The clans of Taking Xuzhou praised Liu Bei one after another.

“Lord Liu Xuande is indeed righteous throughout the world!”

“A model for our Han!”

“Lord Liu Xuande has come, Taking Xuzhou is saved.”

Tao Tao Qian was filled with emotion, looked around, and felt that he was really old, his will depressed.

He suddenly bowed deeply to Liu Bei.

“Liu Xuande, this old man is old, and my two sons are untalented and cannot bear the heavy responsibility of the country. You, Liu Xuande, have a name for righteousness throughout the world, are of the imperial lineage, and have great virtue and talent; you can lead Taking Xuzhou. This old man is willing to beg for leisure to recuperate!”

Everyone was shocked; they didn’t expect Tao Tao Qian to offer Taking Xuzhou as soon as they met!

Zhang Fei’s eyes widened, and he thought to himself,

“I didn’t choose wrong; this is a prosperous Taking Xuzhou with three million people, not my pork shop!”

The Xia Kingdom live stream also exploded, and netizens from various countries sighed,

“Damn, this Tao Tao Qian is senile; this is a whole province!”

“The Big-Eared Thief’s prestige is so high? Awesome!”

“Taking Taking Xuzhou, the Big-Eared Thief will have two provinces, nearly seven million people, and become the number one warlord in the world!”

“Why not agree quickly!”

Liu Bei also bowed to Tao Tao Qian.

“Tao Gong is benevolent and governs Taking Xuzhou well. I only came to rescue; how can I get this Taking Xuzhou? This matter is absolutely impossible!”

Zhang Fei?? Big Brother actually refused; this is not a piece of pork, it’s Taking Xuzhou!

He was dying of anxiety and wished he could agree for Liu Bei!

“If only Second Brother were here!”

Tao Tao Qian offered it sincerely; he had been scared by Cao Cao recently, and he would definitely lose his life after the city was broken.

Moreover, his health had been very poor recently, and he feared he wouldn’t last long.

Liu Bei also sincerely didn’t want it.

Taking Xuzhou was a land of four battles, far away from Bingzhou. If he took Taking Xuzhou, not only would Cao Cao fight him, but Ding Yuan Shao, Ding Yuan Shu, and even Lu Bu would come to fight him!

If a pack of wolves attacked together, even a tiger would have to flee in panic, and even one mistake would lead to a total loss!

And,

This time Liu Bei came to rescue Taking Xuzhou, and the world admired him for it.

If he took over Taking Xuzhou, the nature of the matter would change.

Liu Bei’s refusal instantly won the favor of the Taking Xuzhou clans.

Tao Tao Qian already had tears streaming down his face.

“Liu Xuande, don’t decline anymore; this old bone of mine is about to fail.”

Tao Tao Qian persuaded again, and Liu Bei refused decisively again!

Tao Tao Qian was too excited and fainted instantly!

Liu Bei??

Everyone? Actually offering Taking Xuzhou and fainting himself!

The live stream was also a series of exclamation marks.

“Too magical!”

“What is the Big-Eared Thief doing? Look at how he angered Tao Tao Qian; just take Taking Xuzhou quickly!”

“Exactly, when my Brother Fei gave you all his family wealth, did you hesitate!”

“Big-Eared Thief is pretending; sometimes I really can’t understand him.”

“Is there a possibility that the Big-Eared Thief really doesn’t want Taking Xuzhou?”

“Finally someone upstairs understands.”

Everyone helped Tao Tao Qian up in a flurry.

Liu Bei took Tao Tao Qian’s pulse.

“Everyone don’t panic, Tao Gong is just too anxious, plus excessive worry these days, so he fainted. He will recover after resting for a night.”

Tao Tao Qian was sent to rest.

The clans of Taking Xuzhou came to meet Liu Bei.

“Old man Chen Gui meets Lord Liu Xuande.”

“Chen Deng meets Lord Liu Xuande.”

“So it is the Chen father and son; the Chen family has two talents, I have long admired them.”

Both said they didn’t dare.

Liu Bei sincerely praised them.

As the saying goes, the iron-clad Chen father and son, the flowing Taking Xuzhou Inspector!

The Chen family, as the local clans of Taking Xuzhou,

first assisted Tao Tao Qian,

then Liu Bei,

then Lu Bu, especially playing Lu Bu around, and finally defected to Cao Cao.

Whether in the Romance or historical materials,

the Chen Gui and Chen Deng father and son of the Taking Xuzhou clans always gave a feeling of being sinister villains.

But Liu Bei felt that this was also a way of life, at least it guaranteed the safety of the family.

No matter who managed Taking Xuzhou, they danced, drank, flirted, and paid grain normally!

It was similar to Jia Xu’s strategy of protecting himself.

Chen Deng looked down on Ding Yuan Shu; anyone could be defected to, but not this childhood playmate, obviously not thinking highly of him.

Liu Bei met everyone, and they talked happily.

It was not easy to drink alcohol now, but everyone was glowing.

“Lord Liu Xuande has come, we are finally saved.”

“Lord Liu Xuande, don’t leave in the future.”

“Bingzhou is bitter and cold, Taking Xuzhou’s climate is so good.”

“Lord Liu Xuande, my daughter at home has just grown up and admires you greatly, just ask...”

Liu Bei thanked them while declining.

The live stream was sour.

“Sending money, sending grain, sending women, and even sending Taking Xuzhou; what is so good about the Big-Eared Thief!”

“I can only envy!”

“Liu Bei is too popular with the people.”

Everyone talked until late at night, and then gradually dispersed. Lord Liu Xuande had come, and they could finally sleep well.

Zhang Fei scratched his head and finally found an opportunity.

“Big Brother, it’s not that I’m talking about you, such a good opportunity, why did you give it up? This is Taking Xuzhou!”

“Guo Jia, Xun You, why didn’t you persuade him!”

Taishi Ci cupped his hands.

“My Lord is righteous, but this Taking Xuzhou...”
