"Xuan De, come with me to seize Jingzhou, so we can save ourselves twenty years of detours!"
Xiao Fang traveled through Jingzhou in the late Han Dynasty and by chance married Zhuge Liang's eldest sister, becoming the brother-in-law of the future Zhuge Liang.
As a humble servant, Xiao Fang weighed the pros and cons and decided that assisting Liu Bei was more cost-effective, as he hoped to be granted a title of nobility and appointed as prime minister while also enjoying his retirement in peace.
It happened that Liu Bei had just picked up Xuzhou, but he was like a child holding gold, and was coveted by the bigwigs from all directions.
Was he just going to sit back and watch Liu Bei run into obstacles everywhere in the north, waste his time doing nothing in Jingzhou, and watch the north fall to Cao, while he himself still had nothing?
Although he survived many dangers and founded the Shu Han, he was ultimately no match for an entire country and could only end up trapped in Yizhou and dying a slow death.
Xiao Fang said that he couldn't do it, so he decided to trick Liu Bei into taking Jingzhou in advance.
Yuan Shao: I have been a noble family for four generations, yet I was killed by a country bumpkin who assisted a mat weaver and shoe seller?
Cao Cao: It was God's blessing that Liu Bei got Xiao Fang. I admit that I am jealous!
Zhuge Liang in his later years: I was able to serve as an official for eighty years, thanks to my brother-in-law who once told me to learn how to relieve stress.
Liu Bei: Prime Minister, now that the world is settled and the people are safe and sound, can I enjoy myself a little?
Xiao Fang slowly opened a world map.
