Liu Qi and Liu Qi had a meal with Liu Biao and Xin Pi at the Mu's Mansion before returning to the mansion together. Not long after Liu Qi returned to the mansion, Liu Biao ordered the etiquette officer to select an auspicious day to prepare for the wedding of Liu Qi and Liu Qi.
It didn't take long for the news to spread throughout Xiangyang. All the major families in Xiangyang City were preparing for Liu Qi's wedding. In the next few days, the news of Liu Qi's wedding spread throughout Jingzhou.
Liu Qi's power increased sharply yesterday, surpassing the Cai family in one fell swoop and becoming the true heir of Jingzhou. Not only were various families in Xiangyang City preparing for Liu Qi's wedding, some families even wanted to use Liu Qi's wedding to get closer to Liu Qi.
In Kuai Yue's mansion, Kuai Yue once again invited his brother Kuai Liang to the mansion. The two brothers sat opposite each other in the study, silent. Both of their faces looked solemn, and they were obviously making some important decisions.
"Brother, now Liu Qi is not only the general who controls the southern army, but also serves as the deputy commander of the Flying Tiger Army and the Flying Dragon Army. His power has greatly increased. There is no one in Xiangyang who can fight against him. Now the lord has something to do.
He held a wedding, and the Xin clan is one of the top clans under Yuan Shao. It has become a certainty that Liu Qi will inherit Jingzhou with foreign aid. We, the Kuai clan, have to think of some ways out." Kuai Yue said with a bitter look on his face. He originally wanted to
Liu Qi fought with the Cai family and reaped the benefits. Unexpectedly, Liu Qi's power expanded so quickly. In just a few months, no one in Xiangyang could stop him.
"Hey, I didn't expect things to turn out like this. I really can't see through Liu Qi. If my brother wants to save the Kuai clan, he must either assist Liu Qi from now on, or lead the Kuai clan out of Xiangyang immediately. If he hesitates at all, Kuai will be betrayed.
The Kuai clan is doomed." Kuai Liang sighed after thinking for a while. Now it is no longer possible for the Kuai clan to stay out of the matter.
"However, the current situation in the world is unclear, and the Kuai family has nowhere to go if they leave Xiangyang. It is better to stay in Xiangyang and assist Liu Qi. I have seen this Liu Qi some time ago. Although I can't see through his person, he is a horse under his crotch.
But it is extraordinary. When this horse passes by, thousands of horses surrender. It is a king's horse, and it will not serve anyone who is not a king. From this, Liu Qi is definitely the future king." Kuai Liang continued.
"Oh, I didn't pay attention. Since the eldest brother said so, I will take the opportunity to pay a visit to Liu Qi before his wedding and let him know the position of my Kuai family." Kuai Yue nodded. He knew that the eldest brother was good at horse racing.
You can't go wrong.
"No, you have to go to visit Yi Ji before his wedding, and Yi Ji will lead you to visit Liu Qi. Only in this way can everything be foolproof." Kuai Liang said suddenly.
"Is it from Yi?" Kuai Yue asked doubtfully.
"Yi Ji is Liu Qi's earliest supporter. With him in the middle, Liu Qi will believe in you." Kuai Liang nodded. Kuai Yue's move to Liu Qi at this time seems opportunistic and can easily make people dislike him. Liu Qi will not be attracted by Yi Ji.
There is prejudice against the Kuai family.
"Well, I'm going to visit Yi Ji in the past two days. I have some friendship with Yi Ji and he won't refuse." Kuai Yue breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had not offended anyone before, otherwise Yi Ji would not have helped.
he.
"Since you have decided to assist Liu Qi, you must spare no effort to support him. Liu Qi is no better than the lord. The lord is suspicious and indecisive. In the end, he will never achieve great things. But Liu Qi is extremely ruthless. If he discovers that the Kuai family has betrayed
He will definitely wipe out all the Kuai clan." Kuai Liang reminded.
"Brother, don't worry, I know this." Kuai Liang nodded.
"In that case, I'll leave first and let me know if anything happens." Kuai Liang stood up and prepared to leave.
"Brother, why don't you have dinner at the mansion today?" Kuai Yue stood up and said.
"No, if I didn't go, they wouldn't have made a mess at home." Kuai Liang waved his hand and walked out. Kuai Yue sent Kuai Liang to the door before returning.

At the ferry in the south of Xiangyang City, a group of people disembarked and stood on the shore. The two leaders, an old man and a young man, looked at Xiangyang City not far away with sighs on their faces.
"Mr. Qiao, do you dare to go in such a hurry because you are afraid that your two daughters will marry that Liu Qi without any reason?" The young man was Pang Tong who had followed Qiao Gui all the way to Xiangyang. At this time, Pang Tong was wearing blue cloth.
The whole person looks quite ordinary.
"I still can't hide it from Shi Yuan. These two daughters are my heart and soul. How can I not be anxious now that Liu Qi has kidnapped me in Xiangyang? The servant who went to Xiangyang to inquire about the news said that Liu Qi is getting married soon.
I wonder what’s going on now?” Qiao Gong looked worried.
"Then we should rush to Xiangyang early to ask. As long as we meet the two ladies, everything will be clear." Pang Tong sighed looking at Duke Qiao, who was exhausted because of the rush. Duke Qiao has been very busy these days.
They never rested. As soon as they broke away from the battlefield in Jiangxia, they went upstream until they arrived in Xiangyang today.
"This place is only a stick of incense away from Xiangyang. When we get to Xiangyang City, we can ask passers-by." Pang Tong pointed to the Xiangyang City Road not far away.
Qiao Gong turned his head and saw that everyone had already gone ashore. He nodded and said: "In this case, let's get to Xiangyang as soon as possible." After saying that, he led everyone towards Xiangyang City. In less than half a stick of incense, everyone had arrived in Xiangyang.
.
Looking at Xiangyang City in front of him, Mr. Qiao's face was uncertain, and he was slightly afraid in his heart. What would happen if Liu Qi really forced his two daughters to marry him?
Seeing Duke Qiao's appearance, Pang Tong sighed, came to the gate guarding the city gate, bowed in front of Dan Dan, and asked, "Do you dare to know about the wedding of Liu Jingzhou's son Liu Qi?"
When the soldiers saw Pang Yi dressed up and knew that he was a scholar, they hurriedly performed a military salute and said: "No one in Xiangyang City knows about the eldest son's wedding. Not many people in Jingzhou don't know about it. This happened three days ago. Three days ago."
The former General Zhennan personally ordered the preparations for the eldest son’s marriage.”
"Oh, I and the others were busy traveling along the way and didn't have time to ask in detail, when will the general who conquered the south get married?" Pang Tong said, cupping his hands.
"General Zhengnan, the eldest son is now the deputy commander of both the Flying Tiger Army and the Flying Dragon Army. You can't wait to do this, right?" Liu Qi has been the deputy commander of the Flying Tiger Army and the Flying Dragon Army for a long time.
Word spread in Xiangyang, and no one in Xiangyang knew that the man in front of him actually called the eldest son General Zhengnan.
"What? Liu Qi was appointed as the deputy commander of the Feihu Army and the Feilong Army at the same time?" Pang Tong exclaimed. He knew the status of the Feihu Army and the Feilong Army in Xiangyang. He did not expect that Liu Biao actually appointed Liu Qi as the deputy commander of these two armies.
deputy commander-in-chief.
"Who are you? How dare you call the eldest prince by his first name?" Hearing Pang Tong call Liu Qi by his first name, the soldier tightened his spear and shouted. If the person in front of him was not a scholar, he might have stepped forward to teach him a lesson.
"Please don't blame me if I make a mistake next time!" Pang Tong saw that the soldiers around him were looking this way and saluted hurriedly. The people in front of him obviously supported Liu Qi and the others. It was obvious that Liu Qi had a high prestige in Xiangyang.
"Hmph! You have to be careful what you say. If I hadn't seen that you are a scholar, I would have taught you a lesson. Who in Xiangyang doesn't know that the eldest son killed the traitor and defeated Jiangdong. If others find out, it will not be easy for you." The soldiers looked at it.
Pang Tong persuaded.
"Thank you for reminding me, brother." Pang Tong was secretly shocked: "It seems that Liu Qi has a very high prestige in Xiangyang."
"Excuse me, little brother, where are the two sisters who married Liu Qi now?" Seeing that Pang Tong couldn't ask for such a long time, Qiao Gong stepped forward and asked.
"Why do you, an old man, talk like that?" The soldier was a little angry when he saw that Duke Qiao also called Liu Qi by his first name.
"Brother, don't blame me. The two sisters who married the eldest young master are the daughters of this old man. He is worried about his daughter, so don't blame me." Pang Tong hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him.
"Hmph! You guys are not only rude but also unreasonable. The person who married the eldest son is Mrs.
It is really unreasonable for you to dare to pretend to be Mrs. Xin's family members." As the soldiers said this, they gathered everyone to capture Qiao Gong and others.
"Brother, don't be surprised. I am a member of the Pang clan in Xiangyang. I left Xiangyang a few days ago to travel, and I don't know much about Xiangyang. This is my good friend. His two daughters are currently in the eldest son's house.
"Sir, we are here at the invitation of the eldest son." Pang Tong took out his identity certificate and showed it to the soldiers.
The soldier took the certificate and looked at it carefully before confirming that this person was a member of the Pang family in Xiangyang. The soldier looked at Pang Tong in surprise and said, "Since he is a member of the Pang family, let's go back quickly. As for this
I have never heard of the old gentleman’s daughter, maybe he was mistaken.”
"Thank you very much, brother." Pang Tong saluted the soldiers and hurriedly pulled Duke Qiao into the city.
As soon as he entered the city, Duke Qiao threw away Pang Tong's hand and cursed: "How can Liu Qi be so unreasonable? Does he still want my daughter to be his concubine?"
"Mr. Qiao, please calm down. There may be some misunderstanding here. You'd better come and stay at my house first, and then inquire about the situation of the two ladies." Although Pang Tong was smart, he couldn't understand what was going on, so he could only advise.
"Huh! There's no need to pry. It's clear that Liu Qi doesn't take my two daughters into his eyes, nor does he take me into his eyes. I'm going to go find him to argue." Mr. Qiao said and was about to leave.
.
"How did Mr. Qiao know where the eldest son's residence was when he first came to Xiangyang?" Pang Tong looked at Mr. Qiao and asked.
"Come here, please bring me Liu Qi's envoy." Duke Qiao seemed to have remembered something and turned to the person behind him.
"Yes." A young boy hurriedly ran behind him, and soon he invited several envoys from the Jinfan Thieves over.
"Take me to Liu Qi's house now." Qiao Gong looked at the people and said.
"Please come with me, Mr. Qiao." The leader was about to take Mr. Qiao to Liu Qi's house, but was stopped by Pang Tong.
"Don't you think Mr. Qiao should go over and tell everyone that the two ladies are in the eldest son's house? How can the two ladies deal with themselves like that?" Pang Tong grabbed Mr. Qiao and said. Everyone knew that Liu Qi had kidnapped the eldest sister, but
Now everyone seems to have forgotten this matter and deliberately did not mention it in front of Liu Qi, just because they don't want to make Liu Qi angry. If Mr. Qiao makes such a fuss, everyone will talk about it.
