At the foot of Yunzhu Mountain, on top of the big ship, in Liu Qi's room.
Wei Yan stood in front of Liu Qi in armor: "My lord, my subordinates ordered people to search the entire Yunzhu Mountain, but they did not see the middle-aged man my lord mentioned. I think he has left." Wei Yan is responsible for the surrounding defenses.
.
"Well, be careful and don't pay too much attention. If he doesn't take the initiative to provoke us, we don't need to provoke him." Liu Qi on the bed breathed a sigh of relief. Although he didn't know where the middle-aged man had gone, as long as he was
It’s better if the young people don’t bother with him.
"No." Wei Yan bowed in response.
Liu Qi waved his hand and asked Wei Yan to leave. After a while Gan Ning walked in. Liu Qi asked: "Is there something wrong with Xingba?"
Gan Ning saluted Liu Qi and said, "My lord, there is news from Jiangdong that Mr. Qiao has been found. Mr. Qiao is already on his way to Jingzhou."
"Oh." Liu Qi sat up. Considering that they had left Jiangdong for more than ten days, they originally thought they could not find Mr. Qiao. After all, Jiangdong is so big and they didn't know where Mr. Qiao was, so it was normal that they could not find him.
"My lord, there is another news. That is, Pang Tong, the young lady my lord mentioned, also came with Mr. Qiao to look for Mr. Qiao's soldiers. When he saw Pang Tong at Mr. Qiao's house, he mentioned that the lord invited him by the way. No.
To think that he actually agreed." Gan Ning laughed.
"Really?" Seeing Gan Ning nod, Liu Qi said excitedly: "This Pang Tong is a counselor no less than a military advisor. We must recruit him and order him not to neglect him along the way."
"Don't worry, my lord, I've already told you before leaving that there won't be any mistakes. I'll send some people to pick him up later to make sure nothing goes wrong." Gan Ning thought that the description of Pang Tong in the letter was not disrespectful, but was polite in every way.
This time I got it right.
Liu Qi on the side was a little embarrassed. It was very difficult to recruit top counselors like Pang Tong if they were not arrogant. If they were not good enough, they might become enemies. Moreover, Liu Qi did not know for a moment.
What position should be used to recruit Pang Tong? If Xu Shu were here, maybe he would be able to find a way.
Thinking of this, Liu Qi looked at Gan Ning and asked, "Is there any news about the military advisor?"
"The former Japanese military division sent news that they have set off from Changsha, and according to the itinerary, they are expected to arrive in Xiangyang with us," Gan Ning said.
"Well, if that's the case, then we'll immediately set off back to Xiangyang, and send someone to go into Xiangyang first to inquire about the situation." Liu Qi couldn't wait any longer, but thinking of Cai Hao and others in Xiangyang, Liu Qi was a little worried. Cai Hao and others would never be like this.
If he is allowed to return to Xiangyang easily, he will definitely be obstructed in every possible way.
"Nuo." Gan Ning's face was also a little solemn. He also knew something about the situation in Xiangyang City.
"Is there any news from Jiangxia?" Liu Qi was also a little worried about Jiangxia. After all, Huang Zu was arrested and the post of Jiangxia governor was vacant. If he could place his own people into Jiangxia, his power would expand here.
"Jiangxia's behavior is not optimistic. Jiangdong Sun Ce raised a hundred thousand troops to attack Xiangyang. It seems that he is determined to fight to the death. Moreover, Jiangdong's army has arrived in Jiujiang at this time, and the war is about to break out. However, Jiangdong is not in a hurry to attack, as if he is waiting for something.
People?" Gan Ning knew these things very well.
"A fight to the death?" Liu Qi shook his head and said: "How can Sun Ce fight to the death with Jingzhou if he doesn't kill? It's just a show. The thunder is loud and the rain is light, but we can't take it lightly. General Wenpin is guarding Jiangxia, and there are only five soldiers and horses in total.
Wan is a little short of money. We will rush back to Xiangyang immediately to see if we can transfer some troops to General Wen."
"The person Sun Ce is waiting for is probably Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu came out from Changsha just to help Sun Ce. It seems that Sun Ce didn't want to make it that simple when he raised the army this time."
"Start back to Xiangyang immediately." Liu Qi no longer delayed. Only by returning to Xiangyang as soon as possible could he make changes.
"Nuo." Gan Ning immediately went to give the order. Soon the soldiers scattered on the shore had already boarded the ship, and more than ten large ships slowly left the shore and headed towards Xiangyang.
After Gan Ning left, Liu Qi got up and walked towards Da Qiao's room. Firstly, he told the two girls about Duke Qiao's news. Secondly, he had to explain to the two girls when he left in a hurry. After all, they had agreed in advance to stay here.
rest.
Not long after, Liu Qi came to the door of Da Qiao's room. There were two maids guarding the door. Liu Qi looked at one of the maids and said, "Go and tell your lady that I have something to ask for."
"Master, wait a moment." After saying this, he went in to report.
"My young lady is ill and cannot see guests." The maid came out and said.
"Oh." When Liu Qi heard that the two women were sick, he thought that the two women were angry with him, and smiled slightly and said, "Just say it's about Mr. Qiao."
Hearing Mr. Qiao, the maids hurriedly turned around and entered the room. Not long after, footsteps sounded, but it was Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao. They both ran out. When they saw Liu Qi, Xiao Qiao said with a face of surprise: "The eldest son has a father."
News?”
Liu Qi nodded slightly, and when Xiao Qiao was about to ask, Da Qiao said: "Master, please come in." After saying that, he pulled Xiao Qiao into the room.
"Yes." Liu Qi nodded. It was indeed not appropriate to talk about Mr. Qiao here. After entering the room, Da Qiao sent all the maids out and made some tea for Liu Qi himself before asking: "Is the eldest master the best?"
Any news about father?"
Liu Qi nodded and said: "Yes, the soldiers I sent to Jiangdong to pick up Duke Qiao just sent back the news that they have met Duke Qiao, and that Duke Qiao is already on the way to Jingzhou. You will be reunited soon."
When they heard this, both women looked happy, and Da Qiao stood up and saluted Liu Qi and said, "Thank you, eldest son."
Liu Qi hurriedly stepped forward to help Da Qiao up and said, "Girls, don't be polite. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be in this situation." After saying that, Da Qiao lowered his head. Liu Qi tilted his head slightly and saw that Da Qiao's face was red at this time.
, coupled with that beautiful appearance, it is really charming, and I was a little crazy for a moment.
"Huh!" Xiao Qiao on the side couldn't stand it. The two people were so affectionate in front of her, and she couldn't help but snort.
"Ah..." Liu Qi finally woke up and found that he was still holding Da Qiao. The slippery feeling on his hands made Liu Qi feel a little restless. He quickly let go of Da Qiao, not forgetting to move his fingers lightly before letting go.
.Making Da Qiao’s originally red face look like it was on fire.
Seeing Da Qiao looking like this, Liu Qi thought without even thinking: "Da Qiaoer is so beautiful." As soon as Liu Qi finished speaking, Xiao Qiao snorted again.
Only then did Liu Qi realize his gaffe, touched his nose and said awkwardly: "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." After saying that, he stood up and left without waiting for the two women to speak. As soon as he reached the door, Liu Qi remembered one more thing.
Without saying anything, he turned around and said: "By the way, I have something urgent to go back to Xiangyang and can't stay here anymore. I will accompany you to have fun when I get back to Xiangyang." He paused and looked at Da Qiao and said hesitantly: "I was rude just now."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Da Qiao, who had already calmed down, suddenly felt his heart beat faster again.
