Chapter 228: Monstrous, are there five benefits to turning an assassin into a wife

"What? You want me to take that Lady Yi? Is that how the Teacher and the others are handling it?"

Liu Bei was somewhat dumbfounded.

Guo Jia cupped his hands.

"Lord, for this matter, Master Lu and your Father-in-law discussed it for a long time."

Liu Bei looked at Guo Jia.

"Was this your idea?"

Guo Jia smiled.

"I couldn't hide it from the Lord, indeed. I am doing this for the Lord's sake."

Liu Bei was speechless.

"Tell me your twisted logic."

Guo Jia cupped his hands and coughed.

"Lord, there are five benefits to taking Lady Yi!"

Liu Bei:?? Awesome, he actually found five reasons!

"Hurry up and tell me; I'm all ears."

"First, Lady Yi represents the commoners who retreated from Luoyang; if the Lord takes her, it can further settle the hearts of these hundreds of thousands of commoners."

Liu Bei nodded; this reason was not bad.

"Second, Lady Yi sought revenge for her husband and was willing to commit suicide for righteousness; this story will surely spread throughout the Nine Provinces. If the Lord takes her, it shows the Lord's magnanimous heart of repaying evil with kindness."

"Third, the common folk love these kinds of stories; with a little processing, the Lord can become a topic of conversation for the people of the Nine Provinces after tea and meals, increasing your influence."

Liu Bei:? Will many famous generals and strategists tell me in the future, "Lord, I grew up listening to your stories"?

"Fourth, this Lady Yi is stunningly beautiful and is a perfect match for the Lord."

"Fifth, it prevents Cao Cao from taking Lady Yi and gains the allegiance of some of the Grand General's old subordinates."

Liu Bei:?

"What does this have to do with Cao Cao?"

"Lord, several people came last night claiming to be envoys from Cao Cao, the Administrator of Dongjun. Cao Cao wishes to take Lady Yi to Dongjun and take her as a concubine to repay the kindness of Grand General He Jin."

"Cough, cough!"

Liu Bei instantly started coughing. This Boss Cao's way of repaying kindness is truly awesome.

"I'll raise your wife for you, rest easy!"

Now it's your daughter-in-law? The Grand General would really thank him, wouldn't he? Wouldn't giving some fields and money suffice?

"Then we absolutely cannot let Cao Cao succeed!" ===== CHAPTER 229 =====
