Chapter 221
Damn!
They knew Liu Bei was strong, but they didn't expect Liu Bei to be this strong!
Gan Ning was already one of the top fierce generals in Jingzhou, but he didn't even withstand one move and was killed in seconds!
"No wonder Lord Liu Xuande could defeat Lu Bu 587 and fly Sun Ce away; too strong!"
"I fear even the Western Chu Overlord Xiang Yu was just like this!"
Liu Biao was also shocked.
"This Liu Xuande is truly too strong!"
Gan Ning's tiger mouth cracked, and he lay on the floor in a big shape, starting to doubt life.
This time, not only did he not become famous in one battle, but he was defeated completely, and his self-confidence was gone!
Liu Bei walked over and reached out his hand.
"Gan Gan Xingba, you are very good; Sun Ce was beaten until he bled by me in one move."
Gan Ning's eyes instantly became spirited; does that mean he is stronger than Sun Ce?
Liu Bei pulled him up and patted the dust off Gan Ning's body.
"Gan Xingba, no need to be discouraged; in my observation, you are in the top fifteen among the fierce generals of our Han Dynasty."
Gan Ning was moved inside; Liu Bei was the General of the Cavalry of the Han Dynasty and Uncle Liu, much more noble than Liu Biao, and his martial arts were high!
He actually patted the dust off for him!
His eyes also lit up.
"Lord Liu Xuande, is this true?"
Liu Bei smiled.
"I never lie to anyone."
Gan Ning instantly stood up straight and bowed deeply to Liu Bei.
"Many thanks, Lord Liu Xuande!"
Liu Bei patted his shoulder.
"Good, let's go drink."
Everyone went back to continue drinking; this time, the martial generals of Jingzhou were even more enthusiastic toward Liu Bei.
The army worships the strong, and Liu Bei's archery and bravery deeply convinced them.
Gan Ning even toasted Liu Bei frequently!
Liu Biao and Cai Mao looked at each other; this was not a good situation.
Just then,
The butler rushed in hurriedly.
"My lord, the wife spat blood again; I fear, I fear..."
Cai Mao was happy inside; his younger sister could finally marry in!
Liu Biao's expression seemed very sad.
"Wife! Why did you..."
Liu Bei? Just spitting blood, what are these two doing?
"The wife is just spitting blood, and Liu Biao wants to change wives? Must stop it!"
Everyone at the banquet looked at each other.
Cai Mao wanting to marry his younger sister Cai Shi into the Provincial Governor's Mansion was already an open secret in all of Jingzhou!
Kuai Zhang Liang and Kuai Yue looked at each other, their eyes full of disdain; Cai Mao truly had no bottom line, thinking all day about the mistress dying!
The Cai family and the Kuai family were the two largest noble families in Jingzhou, so a competitive relationship naturally existed.
Martial generals like Huang Zhong were also somewhat ashamed of Cai Mao's character.
Liu Biao, however, seemed to be very sad already.
"Wife, why is that Hua Tuo still not found?"
Liu Bei stood up.
"Brother Brother Jingsheng, you and I are brothers; your wife is ill, and I also know a little about medical skills, so I can help take a look."
Huang Zhong's eyes lit up and he said loudly,
"That's right, Lord Liu Xuande was able to cure the plague in Yuzhang; his medical skills are naturally excellent."
Taishi Ci also said,
"The famous physicians of Yangzhou had no way to deal with the plague, and the Yangzhou Inspector Liu Yao was seriously ill, but my lord saved him."
Gan Ning, with a flushed face, slapped his thigh.
"Lord Liu Xuande is formidable; even his medical skills are so brilliant—truly a god-man!"
He had already become Liu Bei's fanboy, and he hadn't out-drunk Liu Bei just now.
Liu Qi cupped his hands.
"Lord Liu Xuande, please save my mother."
Liu Biao also stood up 'excitedly'.
"Liu Xuande, please help my wife take a look."
Liu Bei did not decline either; he went to the backyard to see the illness for Liu Biao's wife.
The barrage instantly exploded again.
"Liu Biao is not careful."
"Liu Bei is famous for sneaking into the backyard; he doesn't know the pain of Cai Yong, Wang Yun, and Lu Bu!"
"Could it be that Liu Bei is really going to see a doctor this time?"
"I don't believe it!"
"Maybe the big-eared thief is sneaking into Liu Biao's backyard in advance."
Liu Bei was really going to see a doctor this time; he entered the inner courtyard.
Liu Biao's original wife, Liu Qi's mother, Lady Chen, lay on the bed, around fifty years old, her face haggard, her hair gray and sparse—at a glance, one could see her body was about to be overwhelmed.
Liu Bei took her pulse; the old woman suffered from several serious illnesses, but they were still treatable, at least she could live for several more years.
Liu Bei wrote a prescription and also performed acupuncture on her, busy for half an hour.
Lady Chen's breathing was even, and she began to fall into a deep sleep.
Liu Qi said with surprise,
"Lord Liu Xuande, my mother hasn't slept this well for a long time."
He bowed deeply to Liu Bei.
Liu Bei helped him up.
"Young Master Qi, no need for courtesy; I have a deep relationship with brother Brother Jingsheng, and a physician has a benevolent heart. Since I have seen it, I will naturally do my best to treat her."
"Lord Liu Xuande is truly benevolent."
Liu Bei said to Liu Biao,
"Brother Brother Jingsheng, your wife's body is weak; I may need to perform acupuncture on her every three days, ten times in a row, supplemented by medicine, before she can recover."
In fact, Liu Bei could perform acupuncture every four or five days, and take medicine later.
But Liu Bei had to recruit talent in Jingzhou, so he had to find a reason to stay; treating Liu Biao's wife was the perfect reason.
Liu Biao didn't know what to say.
He had met Lady Cai once and liked Cai Mao's beautiful younger sister very much in his heart, wanting to marry her into the house long ago.
But, the original wife wouldn't move, and there was no way.
He originally thought the time was about right, but he didn't expect Liu Bei...
He couldn't refuse either; if this spread out, his reputation would be directly stained, and how would he, Liu Biao, go out to see people?
"Liu Xuande, you have a lot of things to do in Guanzhong; I am so sorry."
Liu Bei shook his head.
"No matter, saving one life is better than building a seven-story pagoda; I am naturally duty-bound."
The live stream room exploded.
"Haha, Liu Biao is truly uncomfortable; he wanted to change wives long ago!"
