Chapter 226: Liu Bei: Intercepting Liu Biao, although immoral, it feels great

Cai Mao looked at the people in the hall, his eyelids twitching.

These were all the talents of Jingzhou; Liu Bei was on the verge of hollowing out Jingzhou!

Liu Bei smiled.

"Brother De Gui, what brings you here?"

Zhang Fei muttered,

"He wouldn't be here to defect to my Big Brother, would he? Liu Brother Jingsheng probably wouldn't agree."

Cai Mao's mouth twitched. As the strategist of Jingzhou, why would he defect to Liu Bei?

"Lord Liu Xuande, my younger sister has recently contracted an illness. Medicine has been ineffective, and the famous doctors of Jingzhou have all seen her, but there has been no effect..."

Liu Bei did not refuse.

"In that case, I shall go to your residence immediately to take a look."

Huang Zhong comforted him,

"De Gui, there is no need to worry. My son Huang Xu was seriously ill for many years, but after Lord Liu Xuande's treatment, he has greatly improved."

Cai Mao nodded. If there were any other way for his sister's illness, he really wouldn't want to owe Liu Bei a favor, lest Liu Biao become suspicious of him.

"My sister is the future Governor's wife; nothing must happen to her."

At the Cai residence,

Liu Bei, guided by Cai Mao, arrived at the rear mansion,

a clean and exquisite small courtyard.

At this moment, the small courtyard was filled with the smell of Chinese medicine, clearly indicating that this Lady Cai was quite ill.

Entering the room, Liu Bei looked at Lady Cai lying on the bed and couldn't help but have his eyes light up.

Although her face was somewhat pale, it could not hide her beauty at all.

Fair skin, a pair of dark, clear, bright eyes, set off by soft, full red lips.

Her lazy posture clearly showed off her long legs; her jade legs were alluring.

Lady Cai stared blankly at Liu Bei, secretly startled.

"This is the great hero whose might shakes the nine provinces? So young and handsome, with such outstanding temperament!"

As they stared at each other, some kind of electric current seemed to spark!

Cai Mao coughed.

"Lord Liu Xuande, my sister has not only been unable to eat for the past few days, but she also has headaches and angina."

Liu Bei nodded.

"I shall take Lady Cai's pulse first."

Lady Cai said softly and weakly,

"Many thanks, Lord Liu Xuande."

Her voice was soft and pleasant, and her fragility made one feel pity.

Liu Bei sat by the bed and seriously took Lady Cai's pulse.

Not long after, he glanced at Lady Cai.

"Brother De Gui, your sister's heart-qi is knotted, and her energy is congested in her chest, leading to poor circulation throughout her body. If this continues, I fear for her life!"

Cai Mao was frightened.

"Lord Liu Xuande, please save my little sister!"

He truly believed it; after all, the famous doctors of Jingzhou had no way, and his sister hadn't been able to eat for days!

Lady Cai was also frightened. In fact, she was faking the illness; she just wanted to see Liu Bei, or perhaps she had other ideas.

Lady Cai thought to herself,

"Could I really be terminally ill without knowing it?!"

The livestream chat exploded.

"Damn, Cai Mao's little sister is so beautiful!"

"This is called bewitching; she's the kind you want to bully the moment you see her!"

"Let the Big-Eared Thief treat her? Cai Mao is careless!"

"I feel like I can see the green grassland on Liu Biao's head!"

"The two of them were already sparking when they looked at each other just now!"

Cai Mao was anxious.

"Lord Liu Xuande, what medicinal herbs are needed? I will go and get them immediately. I beg you, you must save my little sister."

Lady Cai was not moved; she knew Cai Mao was only afraid that she wouldn't be able to marry into the Governor's mansion!

Liu Bei smiled.

"No matter. Although Lady Cai's situation is serious, I only need to perform acupuncture on her daily, massage her acupoints, and supplement it with medicine. Within a month, she will naturally be cured."

Cai Mao?? Daily acupuncture and acupoint massage... this is getting complicated!

Liu Bei seemed to think he didn't believe him and continued,

"Brother De Gui, do you doubt my medical skills? The Governor's wife was terminally ill, and I was able to cure her and extend her life by seven or eight years."

Cai Mao was shocked.

"The Governor's wife can live for another eight years?!"

Liu Bei nodded.

"Perhaps even longer. If well-regulated, ten years is not impossible."

Cai Mao was cursing Liu Bei wildly in his heart, but on the surface, he still smiled.

"The whole province should be grateful for Lord Liu Xuande's kindness."

Liu Bei felt that this Cai Mao was not genuinely grateful to him; his expression was too perfunctory!

Lady Cai on the bed was almost scared silly, thinking to herself,

"Ten years? I'll be thirty by then! And I'll have to marry the sixty-something-year-old Liu Biao? That's lethal! Fortunately, I've found a new path!"

If she really had to wait ten years, Lady Cai would be the super spinster of Jingzhou!

Lady Cai began to cough violently, as if her illness had suddenly worsened.

Liu Biao told Cai Mao to leave quickly so he could treat Lady Cai.

Cai Mao naturally didn't dare to delay and had Lady Cai's personal maid stand guard.

Once only the three of them were left in the room,

Liu Bei opened his medicine box and instructed the maid to fetch a basin of hot water.

Finally, only the two of them were left in the room.

Liu Bei stared at Lady Cai, remaining silent.

Lady Cai, however, was blushed by Liu Bei's gaze and said softly,

"Lord Liu Xuande, what is it?"

Liu Bei said softly,

"Lady Cai is indeed congested, and often suffers from chest tightness, but it isn't that serious yet, is it?"

Lady Cai's face turned even redder. So Liu Bei knew everything.

She struggled to sit up and bowed gracefully.

"Lord Liu Xuande has always been benevolent and righteous; this young woman wishes to beg Lord Liu Xuande to save her life."

She bowed a bit too forcefully, and having not eaten for days, she was weak and fell toward the side of the bed involuntarily.

Liu Bei was quick-witted and caught Lady Cai by the waist.

The two leaned against each other.

Liu Bei felt that Lady Cai's skin was truly delicate, her body very soft, and she was even more beautiful when observed at close range.

Lady Cai's heart almost jumped out when Liu Bei held her.

Feeling Liu Bei's breath, Lady Cai's cheeks were crimson, and she lost herself for a moment looking at Liu Bei's sharp-featured face.

Lady Cai said weakly,

"Many thanks, Lord Liu Xuande."

"Lady Cai, be careful. You are weak; it is better to lie down."

The maid brought the water in and was stunned to see the two of them holding each other!

Liu Bei said seriously,

"Come over and support your mistress; she almost fell off the bed."

"Oh."

The maid realized, so that was it.

Lady Cai secretly praised him; Lord Liu Xuande is indeed quick-witted...

The livestream chat exploded.

"Damn, the Big-Eared Thief is such a scumbag!"

"That's Brother Brother Jingsheng's bride-to-be."

"Old husband, young wife—can't you see Lady Cai isn't happy at all!"

Liu Bei performed acupuncture on Lady Cai and found that her skin was truly white and smooth.

Lady Cai was also blushing, her heart filled with shame...
