Chapter one hundred and seventy-first marriage contract)
And Deng Yu was the leader of the "Yuntai Twenty-eight Generals". He made great achievements in battle and assisted Liu Xiu in becoming an emperor. Compared with Xin Pina, Xu Shu, and Liu Qi, Liu Biao couldn't believe it.
Seeing Liu Biao's disbelief, Xin Pi said with a smile: "When Emperor Guangwu was plowing the fields, who would have thought that he would unify the world and become the master of ZTE?"
Liu Biao shook his head and stopped talking about it. In his opinion, although Liu Qi was excellent, he could not be compared with Emperor Guangwu. Liu Biao suddenly laughed and said, "I heard you have a daughter?"
Xinpi smiled bitterly and said, "That's right, she's here too this time."
"Haha, I have been worried about Qi'er's marriage!" Liu Biao suddenly laughed.
Xin Pi smiled bitterly and said nothing, looking at Liu Biao helplessly: "I'm afraid their eldest son doesn't know about their engagement, right?"
"Well, I haven't had time to tell him. I thought we would never meet again, but I didn't expect that we would meet again after more than ten years." Liu Biao said with emotion, but Liu Qi was only four or five years old when they separated.
When Xin Pi gave birth to a daughter, they decided to break the contract. Liu Biao thought they would never see each other again, so he didn't tell Liu Qi.
"You are so concerned about Qi'er and have such a high opinion of him, so you won't object to this marriage at this time, right?" Liu Biao looked at Xinpi with a smile on his face.
"Yes, my daughter already knows about the engagement between the two, but my daughter has always been very independent. If you want to marry her home, it depends on whether your precious son has the ability to win her favor." Xinpi
He nodded and said. When she first mentioned it to her daughter, his daughter was completely unwilling. This time she came to Xiangyang just because she was afraid that he would settle the matter, so she came with her.
"Haha, let them young people worry about this matter. Anyway, I heard that Qi'er kidnapped Sun Ce's future wife during her trip to Jiangdong." Liu Biao was obviously not very worried about Liu Qi's marriage.
Since Liu Qi is the future Lord of Jingzhou, he will certainly not lack women by his side, but he needs a virtuous wife to help him handle household affairs. This is what Liu Biao is most worried about.
"You, my daughter has always been proud and arrogant, and her literary talents are not inferior to mine. Most men look down upon her. Liu Qi is just a dragon trapped in the mud at this time, and her thoughts are difficult to fathom.
"Xin Pi looked at Liu Biao with a smile on his face and shook his head.
"Oh, are you serious about this?" Liu Biao couldn't help but think of the woman who came with Xin Pi two days ago. Although that woman was not a beautiful woman, her temperament was not something that ordinary women could possess. Now listen
Seeing that her literary talent was not inferior to Xin Pi's, Liu Biao was shocked and doubtful.
"I can't lie to you. You are worried about Liu Qi's marriage. Am I not worried about my daughter's marriage?" Xinpi nodded.
"In that case, I will announce this matter tomorrow." Liu Biao was stunned and said. Only such a woman should be his son's wife. Xinpi doesn't like to joke, especially when it is such a big event.
"Didn't you just say to let them make their own decisions?" Xin Pi immediately saw through Liu Biao's thoughts.
"Haha, the etiquette of parents' orders and matchmaker's words cannot be broken. It was just a joke." Liu Biao waved his hand.
The two talked and laughed until they were both drunk, and then Liu Biao ordered someone to send Xinpi back.
Back outside the courtyard, Xinpi waved to the person who sent him back, then staggered into the courtyard. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl running over to support Xinpi with a worried look on her face.
He said: "Father, why do you drink so much wine?"
"I'm happy today. I talked to Liu Jingsheng about what happened back then." Walking into the room, Xin Pi lay half on the soft couch and took two sips of the water handed over by the girl.
"I have already mentioned your matter to him. He will tell Liu Qi tomorrow. Then it will be up to you." Xinpi raised his head and said: "I heard that Liu Qi robbed two women in Jiangdong. These two
This woman is so beautiful that she was originally the unmarried wife of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu from Jiangdong. Unexpectedly, she was kidnapped by Liu Qi after she met her. You should be careful then. But you and Liu Qi are engaged, I am Xin
The family is considered to be old friends with the Liu Biao family, so the position of head wife must be yours."
"Father..." the girl yelled coquettishly.
"Haha, I forgot about being a father. You can decide after you see Liu Qi tomorrow. If you don't want to be a father, you can only be a villain for once." Xinbi said with a smile on his face. He didn't know about his daughter's worries until
It was clear to everyone that Liu Qi's affairs had been spread throughout Xiangyang City these days. From time to time, she ordered people to go and inquire about it, but Xin Pi saw it.
"Yes." The girl nodded but felt helpless. Since Xin Pi and Liu Biao had already agreed on the marriage, it would be hard to shirk it. If the two hadn't seen each other for decades, it would be fine, but now that they have met and
It would be quite detrimental to the integrity of the Xin family to bring up old matters and regret the marriage again, and my father was not doing well in the north. If he could take this opportunity to stay in Jingzhou, he might be able to achieve something in the future.
Moreover, although she has never met Liu Qi, she knows a lot about Liu Qi. At the age of twenty, Liu Qi does not have many concubines around him. Such people are indeed rare.
"Father, let's rest first." As she said this, the girl picked up the quilt from behind Xinpi and asked him to lie down. Not long after, Xinpi was snoring like thunder.
The girl helplessly covered him with a brocade quilt, then stood up and sat down at the table in front of the window. Bai Zhi picked up the bamboo slips on the table with his jade hands. After a long time, he sighed quietly: "I hope we will live forever, and we can share the beauty of the moon thousands of miles apart."
.What kind of person are you?"
……………………..
Xu Shu from Liu Qi's mansion sent his mother back to the mansion, and after cleaning herself, she came to Liu Qi's mansion.
Seeing Liu Qi, Xu Shu explained in detail what he had learned in Changsha these days before saying: "The Governor of Jiangdong should have arrived in Jiangxia by now. Although General Wenpin's Feilong Army is an elite force, I am afraid that all the elites in Jiangdong will be out this time."
Not easy to deal with."
"Don't worry Yuan Zhi. I will tell my father about this tomorrow. Since General Wenpin has not asked for help from Xiangyang, the situation in Jiangxia should not have reached the point of life and death. As long as the army reaches Jiangdong, it will naturally retreat." Liu Qi nodded.
"Why did Yuan Zhi think that my father's attitude towards me changed drastically after he came back this time?" Liu Qi asked when he saw what happened in Xiangyang and told Xu Shu.
"I'm afraid this is related to the conquest of Changsha. On the one hand, Liu Jingzhou probably wanted to support his lord to compete with Cai Mao. On the other hand, he may have decided to appoint his lord as his heir." Xu Shu said immediately, feeling happy for Liu Qi in his heart.
, In this way, Liu Qi's power will increase rapidly, and he will no longer have to restrain himself as before.
"Oh." Liu Qi nodded and wondered why Liu Biao suddenly made this decision.
"Cai Mao's assassination of the lord in public this time angered Liu Jingzhou, so it is understandable for Liu Jingzhou to do so." Xu Shu saw the doubts in Liu Qi's heart and said.
"Look at this." Liu Qi took out a cloth from his arms and handed it to Xu Shu.
Xu Shu took a second look at the cloth and his face was full of surprise. He did not expect that Liu Qi would tell him such an important thing. He took a breath and read the contents on the cloth before Xu Shu said: "This emperor is so scheming.
Liu Jingzhou almost got in his way."
"Why?" Liu Qi asked with excitement.
"At that time, the emperor was probably very close to Liu Jingzhou. Liu Jingzhou might have wanted to support him as emperor, but the two had a falling out because of this matter. The emperor wanted to take over Yuan Shu's hand and remove you so that
It will be easy to control Liu Jingzhou in the future." Xu Shu sighed with a look on his face.
"What's going on?" Liu Qi became increasingly confused.
Xu Shu handed the cloth in his hand to Liu Qi and said: "The emperor should have been absolutely sure that he would ascend the throne. At that time, the local officials in the world were too proud to obey orders. The emperor wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of the eldest son to dispel Liu Biao's ambitions.
, by then Liu Jingzhou will definitely be in pain and concentrate on assisting the emperor."
"Liu Xie was only ten years old at the time and he was already so scheming." Liu Qi was a little surprised. It was really scary that a child in his teens could be so scheming.
"There has never been any family ties in the imperial family. It is not unusual for the princes to have been fighting each other since childhood." Xu Shu shook his head and said.
"Haha, even if he is very scheming and has been suppressed all these years, he will probably become confused." Liu Qi handed another cloth to Xu Shu.
Xu Shu took a deep breath and Bu Jin looked at it carefully for a long time before saying with excitement: "Master, a war is about to start in the north, and our opportunity is about to come."
"Yes, this is an opportunity for us, but if we are not careful, we will be doomed." Liu Qi said with a cautious face: "There are many strange people and strangers in Jingxiang area. This is the time to recruit, we must not let them
into the wrong hands."
Regarding Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, and Liu Qi, he had already made up his mind. If the recruitment failed, he would have to send out the Jinyi Guards to kill them or imprison them permanently. He would not leave these people to Liu Bei just for the sake of temporary benevolence.
"My lord, if you have this intention, why worry about the great things happening?" There is an inexplicable trust in Liu Qi and Xu Shu. Now if Liu Qi wants to recruit these people, he will definitely succeed.
"I have received news that Pang Tong is coming to Xiangyang with Duke Qiao this time. This person must be recruited. In addition, Wolong Zhuge must not let go. If these people can be recruited, they will be recruited. If not, they will be removed." After Liu Qi said this.
A cold look on his face.
"This... Lord, the talents of these people are superior to those of the common people. Please think twice, Lord." Xu Shu did not expect Liu Qi to be so decisive, and even more felt that he was suitable as a king. He was not a pedantic person. Such a person should be left to
Others are pushing themselves to death, but he can't bear to see his friends being killed.
"Don't worry Yuan Zhi, I won't do this unless it is absolutely necessary." Liu Qi shook his head and said. It would be a pity for Zhuge Liang to kill Pang Tong and others, and he still had some confidence in himself. Liu Qi knew their ambitions very well.
