Tao Qian was even more impressed by Liu Bei's refusal.
This was Xuzhou!
In the Great Han Dynasty, there were only a few Prefecture Overseers!
Many people wanted it but couldn't get it!
However, Liu Bei was only stunned for a moment before he directly declined!
From Liu Bei's reaction, Tao Qian could see Liu Bei's character. He smiled and said,""Xuande! Now that the world is in chaos, Wang Gang is not strong, and Liu Bei is a relative of the Han Dynasty, he should help the Han Dynasty!”
"This old man is old and incompetent. I'm willing to give Xuzhou to Liu Bei. Please don't refuse!”
"I will report the relevant documents to His Majesty!”
Liu Bei was terrified and thought that Tao Qian was testing him. He left the table and bowed again."Although I am a relative of the Han clan, I have little merit and virtue. I'm afraid that I won't be competent as a plain order.”
"Now that I've come to Xuzhou for righteousness, do you think I want to annex Xuzhou?”
"Liu Bei has no such intentions!"
When Tao Qian heard this, he felt that Liu Bei was a good person. He also stood up and returned the greeting."Xuande, this old man truly wants to give up Xu Prefecture, not because I'm worried that you'll annex it. Don't misunderstand this old man!”
Xu Zhou's civil and military officials all had different thoughts.
Mi Zhu's original suggestion was to let Liu Bei take up a post in Xu Zhou and become Tao Qian's student.
This way…
Liu Bei would definitely be grateful and take care of Tao Qian's descendants.
However, Tao Qian had given up on Xu Prefecture. This was something that Mei Zhu had never expected!
Ze Rong's eyes became even more venomous!
"Military Advisor!"
Liu Bei looked at Xun Mu, wanting him to think of a solution!
If Xu Prefecture was taken over, wouldn't the image of benevolence and righteousness that Liu Bei had painstakingly built collapse?
He said it beautifully, but he was here to save Xuzhou.
Was he actually here to annex Xu Prefecture?
More importantly…
Liu Bei didn't believe that Tao Qian would really let Xu Zhou go!
What if Tao Qian was just testing him and Liu Bei did not resist the temptation? Wouldn't his reputation be ruined?
Xun Mu gently waved his feather fan, stood up and bowed,""Envoy Tao, I won't accept a reward without merit!"
"My lord already knows your intentions!”
"I have a plan that I would like Envoy Tao to consider!”
Tao Qian saw Xun Mu stand up and knew that this was the genius who had defeated Xiahou Dun's five thousand elite soldiers.
"Please speak, Mister Xun!"”
Xun Mu smiled faintly." My lord has been homeless. His mistress has unfortunately died. There's no wife in the house to preside over it.”
"I heard that the envoy has a daughter who is virtuous and virtuous.”
"Xun Mu is bold enough to propose marriage on behalf of my lord!”
"In this way, my lord and the envoy are family!”
"What difficulties can't be solved when it comes to family matters?”
Tao Qian's eyes lit up.
Although he only had two good-for-nothing sons, he had many daughters!
Coincidentally, he had an unmarried daughter!
Tao Qian was indeed being polite by giving way to Xu Prefecture.
He would definitely give in.
But not this time!
Tao Qian had to test Liu Bei to see if he could protect Tao Qian's wealth!
At the same time, he was hinting to Liu Bei to stay in Xu Prefecture!
Liu Bei was a benevolent person, so he would definitely refuse to accept Xuzhou.
If Tao Qian asked Liu Bei to take up a post in Xuzhou, Liu Bei would not refuse.
After spending some more time to build up their relationship, Tao Qian would be able to give Xu Prefecture to Liu Bei without worry.
But at this moment.
Xun Mu's suggestion gave Tao Qian a new idea!
Liu Bei's wife was killed, and there was no wife in the house to preside over it.
Then his daughter would be his wife!
How could a student and an old official have a close relationship with his wife?
Liu Bei became the herdsman of Xu Prefecture. Did he not know how to take care of his two brothers-in-law?
In an instant.
Tao Qian's gaze towards Liu Bei changed immediately!
It was as if a father-in-law was scrutinizing his son-in-law!
Liu Bei was stunned!
What was going on?
Military Advisor!
I told you to think of a way, not ask for a marriage proposal!
Before Liu Bei could speak, Zhang Fei, who had received Xun Mu's gaze, slammed the table and stood up."Congratulations, big brother. As the saying goes, marrying a virtuous wife. Envoy Tao is a benevolent gentleman, so his daughter will definitely be virtuous!”
Guan Yu also twirled his beautiful beard." If your daughter becomes my brother's wife, I, Guan Yu, will protect you and your daughter even if I have to die!"”
Tao Qian was even happier!
He had seen the bravery of Liu Bei's two sworn brothers!
One praised Tao Qian's daughter for being virtuous and virtuous, while the other would protect Tao Qian and his daughter even if they had to die.
Just hearing these words made one feel extremely comfortable!
With Liu Bei as his son-in-law, would the Cao thief still dare to kill him, Tao Qian?
"Xuande, are you really willing to marry my daughter?”Tao Qian looked at Liu Bei, his tone filled with surprise.
Liu Bei saw Xun Mu, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei saying this, and he also saw the enthusiasm in Tao Qian's eyes.
He knew that if he continued to decline, it would seem too tactless!
Immediately.
Liu Bei bowed again." I, Liu Bei, have a humble reputation and meager virtue. Although I have this intention, I'm afraid that the people of other places will say it.”
Tao Qian laughed loudly, interrupting Liu Bei's modesty. He left the table and helped Liu Bei up."Xuande is a benevolent gentleman. It is my honor to marry my daughter to Xuande!”
Tao Qian looked at everyone.
"Today, I invite everyone present to be my witness. This old man is willing to marry my daughter to Xuande!”
"From now on, we will fight against Cao Cao together!”
