The Jagged Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 380 Chapter 379
Sima Yi?
Liu Qi was taken aback when he heard the name.

Regent Yan Wang Zhang Yan created the so-called imperial examination system. The imperial examination was held last September. Sima Yi was the number one scholar at that time, but for some unknown reason, Zhang Yan later banned Sima Yi from the title of number one scholar and changed Tanhua Gao Tanglong to the number one scholar.

At that time, Liu Qi was stationed in Jiangxia, and many students from Jingzhou went to Yuzhou to take the imperial examination, but most of them left in high spirits and returned disappointed.Liu Qi made friends and had a lot of interactions with the students in Jingzhou. During a banquet, he heard the students talk about the anecdote of the number one scholar in the imperial examination.

Who would have thought that he would meet Sima Yi, the No. [-] scholar from last year, here today.

The number one scholar is No. 1. Among thousands of students, the person who can break through the siege, strive for the top, and win the first place is definitely not a simple person.

It is rumored that Sima Yi was banned from the title of No. [-] Scholar because he offended Zhang Yan, King of Yan, and was only given the position of a small pavilion chief. Although it was said to be a fraud to the outside world, Liu Qi knew the inner plot and often complained for Sima Yi .

For Liu Qi, Sima Yi is a piece of gold, but the outside is covered with a layer of mud, covering the light that this piece of gold should have.

Liu Qi personally handed over a pot of hot wine that had just been warmed, and said to Sima Yi, "So you are Sima Yi, the number one scholar last year?"

Sima Yi looked at Liu Qi's fair and handsome face, and asked suspiciously, "You know me?"

"I can't talk about knowing you, I just heard about you. It's a pity that you have such a great talent, but you have been treated so unfairly. It's really chilling."

"You know about me?" Sima Yi asked suspiciously.

Liu Qi laughed and said: "To be honest, my surname is Liu Mingqi, and I am the prefect of Jiangxia County."

Sima Yi said: "I heard that Liu Qi, the prefect of Jiangxia, is the eldest son of Liu Biao, the shepherd of Jingzhou. Are you that Liu Qi?"

"What this, that, there is only one Liu Qi, and that is me!" Liu Qi laughed.

A smile appeared on Sima Yi's face immediately, and he bowed respectfully to Liu Qi: "It turns out that you are the eldest son, Zhongda is sorry and disrespectful!"

"I'm just a down and out son, what should I respect?" Liu Qi sneered.

Sima Yi heard something in Liu Qi's words, so he hurriedly asked what was going on.

All along, Liu Qi was very depressed and aggrieved, and he didn't have any trusted people around him. He was afraid that Cai Mao sent him to monitor him.Therefore, he has always done it himself.

But Sima Yi is different, he is an outsider, Liu Qi has finally found a gap in his heart that has been suppressed for a long time, and in this situation, at this moment, Liu Qi begins to tell Sima Yi about himself.

Sima Yi was like a trash can, accepting Liu Qi's catharsis unconditionally, and also looked at this superficially handsome prince of Jingzhou differently. He never imagined that Liu Qi's situation was even sympathetic to him.

One is a bloody boy with a wild personality, and the other is an indescribable but extremely depressing young master of Jingzhou. The two young people have gradually established a profound friendship beyond ordinary people in this ruined temple.

After Sima Yi listened to what Liu Qi said, his young heart couldn't bear it any longer. Under the indignation, he couldn't help saying angrily: "It's too much to deceive people! How can there be such a reason in the world? Eldest son, are you willing to do this?" Squeezed out by that group of people?"

"Hey!" Liu Qi sighed heavily, "I don't want to, but what can I do? I don't have anyone around me I can trust, and I don't have anyone to advise me, I... forget it, no Mention him, tell me about you, why did you come to Jingzhou?"

A trace of hatred suddenly flashed in Sima Yi's eyes, and he said to Liu Qi: "The king of Yan has no one in his eyes and looks down on me. Why am I still staying there? I am going to Jiangdong to join Sun Ce. He is currently employing people, and I want to help him." , against the King of Yan! However, the road to Jiangdong was blocked, so I had no choice but to detour to Jingzhou. I have already become a lonely ghost who froze to death by the roadside!"

"Jiangdong is a long way away, and Sun Ce has a lot of talents under his tent, especially he has a lot of trust in that man named Zhou Yu. It will be more difficult for you to get ahead in Jiangdong." Liu Qi said.

Sima Yi frowned tightly, and said slowly: "I don't know the difficulties of getting ahead in Jiangdong, but no matter how difficult it is, I am not afraid. I must prove to Zhang Yan that I, Sima Yi, are definitely not as simple as he thought. I must make King Yan pay the price!"

After Liu Qi heard this, he said to Sima Yi: "Zhongda, I don't think you should go to Jiangdong. Jiangdong's situation is very bad. You might as well stay in Jingzhou. I happen to be short of someone who can advise me. I want you to be my friend." If you can defeat the Cai family and let me take the position of the Lord of Jingzhou, I will appoint you as a military adviser. Jingzhou is fertile and thousands of miles away, with a household registration of one million and more than [-] armors. The army is even more invincible in the world, it can be attacked in advance, and it can be defended in retreat. It can be said to be a treasure. Relying on the strong capital of Jingzhou, it can definitely fight against the army of King Yan!"

Hearing what Liu Qi said, Sima Yi immediately became interested, and the scene of himself commanding an army of more than [-] troops against King Yan's army appeared in his mind.

After a while, Sima Yi asked: "My lord, are you really willing to let me be your staff?"

Liu Qi nodded.

"You don't dislike my youth?" Sima Yi asked.

Liu Qi shook his head and said, "In ancient times, Gan Luo worshiped his prime minister at the age of ten, and you are much older than Gan Luo. Moreover, you are the number one scholar in the imperial examination. I am too happy for you to be my assistant, so what? Will despise you?"

After hearing Liu Qi's words, Sima Yi was inexplicably moved, and suddenly felt that he had finally found someone who understood him in this world.

Therefore, Sima Yi immediately kowtowed to Liu Qi and said: "My lord, please accept Sima Yi's worship. From now on, Sima Yi will definitely do my best for my lord, and I will go through fire and water, and I will never say anything!"

There is a kind of kindness called the kindness of knowledge and encounter. When Liu Qi met Sima Yi when he was extremely lost, it had to be said that it was a coincidence arranged by heaven.

It was this kind of coincidence that closely linked the fates of the two young men, Liu Qi and Sima Yi. From then on, the names of these two people would shock the entire Jingzhou!

Liu Qi and Sima Yi spent the night in the ruined temple, and returned to Jiangxia early the next morning. They rode the same horse together and chatted non-stop along the way.

At this moment, Sima Yi seemed to have found a confidant, and he and Liu Qi had a very happy chat, and the more they talked, the more speculative they became.

Two days later, Xiling, the county town of Jiangxia County, arrived. Liu Qi and Sima Yi rode the same horse. When they passed the city gate, the guards were surprised to see such a scene, and they all secretly guessed that this person was riding the same horse as Liu Qi. Who is the person?

When Liu Qi came back, Chang Shi Han Song got the news immediately, and hurried to the prefect's mansion to see Liu Qi.

Han Song, courtesy name Degao, was born in Yiyang, Yuzhou. He grew up in a poor family, but he loved learning. He was recommended as Xiaolian because of his filial piety.Before the Yellow Turban Uprising, Han Song predicted that the world would be in chaos, so he moved south with several friends and his family to Jingzhou to avoid the chaos.Later, the Yellow Turban Army led by Zhang Jiao really revolted, and the world was in turmoil for a while, and the people were in dire straits. It was only when friends and others really knew that Han Song knew things like a god.

Afterwards, the Yellow Turban Uprising was quelled, and the Sangong sent people to recruit Han Song into the court as an official. Han Song felt that the court was corrupt and the great man would fall, so he was unwilling to get involved in the political whirlwind and continued to live in seclusion.

Later, Liu Biao was the shepherd of Jingzhou. Hearing about Han Song's name, he sent someone to invite him, but Han Song refused.In a fit of rage, Liu Biao sent troops to surround Han Song's home, threatening his family's lives, and asked him to take up the post of Jingzhou Biejia.Han Song had no choice but to come out to be an official.

However, Han Song and Liu Biao had political disagreements, and Han Song was a straightforward person who often contradicted Liu Biao in public, which made Liu Biao unable to step down many times. Liu Biao gradually alienated Han Song in his heart and took a chance to demote him In order to be a Zhonglang, it is just a vain job.

Later, Liu Qi was sent to Jiangxia as the prefect. Although Liu Biao didn't like Han Song, he knew that Han Song had the ability to govern the country, so he personally chose Han Song for Liu Qi to be the chief secretary of Jiangxia County. Song, secondly, Han Song can do his best to assist Liu Qi in governing Jiangxia.

Facts have proved that Liu Biao's decision is correct.Since Han Song served as the chief historian of Jiangxia, he has shared many worries for Liu Qi in government affairs.

However, Liu Qi always felt that Han Song was sent by Cai Mao, so he was indifferent to Han Song, and the two were not too close.

In the prefect's mansion, Liu Qi and Sima Yi had just returned, when Han Song walked in from the door, and after seeing Liu Qi, he said respectfully, "My lord, you are finally back!"

Liu Qi said coldly: "Han Changshi, what's the matter?"

Han Songdao: "The Eldest Young Master left Jiang Xia for a few days. Although there was nothing unusual about Jiang Xia, the eunuch left without permission. If outsiders know about it and spread it, it is always bad. Today the Eldest Young Master can come back, and this subordinate has a heart , and it finally came down."

"Didn't I tell you? I went to inspect the counties, what do you mean leaving without authorization?" Liu Qi said angrily.

Han Songdao: "The eldest son is patrolling the counties, so there is no need to go to Xiangyang, right? The eldest son has not been deeply involved in the world, and he doesn't know the dangers of this world. In case of encountering some bad people, if something goes wrong, how will the eldest son ask his subordinates to report to Liu Jingzhou? Confession?"

"What is there to explain! I'm not a three-year-old child! Also, how did Han Changshi know exactly where I went? Are you spying on me?" Liu Qi said angrily.

Han Song hurriedly said: "This subordinate dare not, how dare this subordinate monitor the eldest son, it is really out of concern for the eldest son's safety, so the subordinate sent a few people to accompany him to protect the eldest son!"

"You...you actually..."

"My lord, Han Changshi also expressed kindness. My lord should thank Han Changshi." Sima Yi said suddenly.

Only then did Han Song notice that there was a young man beside Liu Qi, so he looked at Sima Yi curiously and asked, "Who is this?"
