The slur'ed music must be in a single voice that moves between the staves:

\version "2.22"
\new PianoStaff
<<
  \new Staff = UPPER \relative {
    e'2.*1/3 \change Staff = LOWER c,8( e g c \change Staff = UPPER e[ g]
    <fis c'>2 b4. fis8)
  }
  \new Staff = LOWER \with { \clef bass }
  {
    <c g>4 s2 r4
    a2 b
  }
>>

I'm cheating a bit since e'2.*1/3 shortens the note (which would me 
noticeable in MIDI output). It doesn't matter if you only want printed 
music.

A more "correct" solution would invole multiple voices:

<< e'2. \new Voice { ... } >>
