Chapter 624 Liu Bei's Thoughts
In fact, Liu Bei had another idea in mind: Liu Chong was also surnamed Liu, and he currently had no children. In this way, Liu Chong might become his successor in the future.
Thinking of this, Liu Bei felt somewhat relieved.
Because that's not asking anyone to do something unreasonable.
Upon hearing Liu Bei's words, Lady Cai's eyes flashed with joy. She quickly knelt down and kowtowed to express her gratitude: "Thank you, Imperial Uncle! I will wholeheartedly support you from now on and have no other intentions!"
Clearly, Lady Cai had also considered this relationship. She understood that as long as Liu Bei did not have a son, Liu Chong, as his adopted son, would have the opportunity to inherit Liu Bei's cause.
Moreover, no matter what, Liu Chong will always be a member of the Liu family, and that cannot be changed.
Upon seeing this, Liu Bei quickly stepped forward to help Lady Cai up, while secretly plotting his next move. He knew that although this step would be quite difficult, he had no choice but to forge ahead in order to realize his ambitions and ideals.
"Chong'er, call him Father!" Madam Cai said to Liu Chong!
Liu Chongcai was only five or six years old at this time!
After all, it's only 200 AD!
Liu Chong was only thirteen or fourteen years old when he succeeded Liu Biao as governor of Jingzhou!

Qianhe looked at Madam Cai, knew what she was thinking, and chuckled.
It would have been good for Liu Shan to be emperor, but he wouldn't be born for another seven or eight years.
Now that Lady Cai has married Liu Bei, if she has children with Liu Bei, there will most likely be no Liu Shan and Liu Chong!
If Liu Bei and Lady Cai had a son, Lady Cai would not have supported Liu Chong too much, since Liu Bei's son was the rightful heir!
In any case, it would be advantageous for her to inherit the throne with either of her sons!
“Father!” Liu Chong called out respectfully.
He knew that those who are discerning in times of need are wise.
Liu Bei smiled and agreed, then had someone take him away.
Then he took Madam Cai's hand and said, "Madam, please go and rest. I'll talk to you when I'm done with my work!"
Madam Cai blushed, nodded, and left.
Seeing him leave, Qianhe said with a smile, "Xuande, if you have a son with Lady Cai, you'll have to deal with the aristocratic families properly from now on!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Bei's expression turned serious: "Daoist Qianhe, this is also what I'm concerned about!"
He won't end up like Liu Jingsheng, being sidelined and rendered powerless!
“Originally, you and Madam Gan would have a son in a few years to inherit your family business. But if you have a son with Madam Cai in the next few years, then your Liu Shan will most likely end up like Liu Qi,” Qianhe said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Liu Bei was overjoyed!
"This...I, Liu Bei, am still capable of having offspring?"
He always thought it was because he wasn't good enough, but now it seems that's not the case.
"Of course! You have several sons, but it will be several years before you have any! If you and Madam Cai have a son first, you'll have to be careful!" Qianhe shook her head and said.
Liu Bei had more than just Liu Shan; he also had Liu Yong and Liu Li.
.......................
"I understand, Daoist Qianhe. You said I am Emperor Zhaolie of Han? Will I really become emperor in the future?" Liu Bei asked, voicing his thoughts.
After all, the first time Chizuru saw him, she called him Emperor Zhaolie!
Qianhe smiled mysteriously and said, "Xuande, without my interference, you did indeed have a difficult journey, but you eventually became Emperor Zhaolie of Han!"
"This... what about the current emperor? He..." Liu Bei asked in surprise.
He was naturally referring to Emperor Xian of Han, Liu Xie.
"He was forced by Cao Pi to abdicate the throne to Cao Pi, so you became emperor and continued the Han Dynasty!"
Liu Bei was moved to tears upon hearing this.
He never expected that Liu Xie would be forced to abdicate.
"Your Majesty..." Liu Bei wept.
If Liu Xie hadn't acknowledged him as the emperor's uncle, he would still have been just a humble weaver of mats and seller of shoes.
There's nothing particularly impressive about it.
They can only claim to be descendants of Prince Jing of Zhongshan!
He thought of Liu Xie, and could only tell him the truth in the toilet.
This caused him immense distress.
"Bei, I humbly request Daoist Qianhe to save His Majesty..." Liu Bei immediately bowed and said to Qianhe.
Chizuru was surprised.
If you bring Liu Xie back, how will you become emperor in the future?
Chizuru frowned, pondering how to respond.
He knew that if Liu Bei insisted on rescuing Liu Xie, the matter of Liu Bei becoming emperor would inevitably be fraught with uncertainty.
“Xuande, rescuing Liu Xie is not impossible, but the situation may become even more complicated after he is rescued,” Qianhe said slowly.
