Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2 Goal
Step, step, step.
A burst of footsteps came from far to near, slowly running from the street.

The two guards outside the door saw the person running in a hurry, but they didn't stop him, as if they didn't see it, they let the person go straight into the mansion and run towards Liu Qi who was lying on the grass in the yard.

"Lord!"

The man ran to the path outside the grass and stopped, bowing respectfully and bowing his hands in salute.

Hearing this, Liu Qi came back to his senses from the memory, slowly stood up from the grass, patted on his clothes, walked up to the man, and said with a smile: "Xiao Wu, looking at your appearance, could it be that there is something wrong with you?" Good thing?"

"My lord, as you expected, the Hedong Wei family has taken action and is already preparing. They should rush to Luoyang in a few days. Do you want to!" Xiao Wu made a gesture on his neck at the end.

The Wei family, which first flourished in the Han dynasty, Wei Qing, who was established as the Queen's Wei Zifu, the Wei family has been on the rise since that moment; the real prosperity of the Hedong Wei family should have been during the time of Cao Wei.

However, the current Hedong Wei family is also a famous family, aristocratic family, and with the status of the emperor's relatives, it is also a thriving existence in Hedong.

The reason why Liu Qi drew attention to the Hedong Wei family was not the identity of the Wei family. After all, his own identity was not simple. The eldest son of Jingzhou Governor Liu Biao and Liu Jingsheng was also a descendant of the Han family, so there was no need to curry favor with the Wei family.

There is only one purpose of paying attention to the Wei family, that is, the Wei family will go to Luoyang to propose marriage this year, and they want Wei Zhongdao to take Cai Yan, the daughter of Cai Yong and Cai Bojie, as his wife.

Cai Yan, named Zhaoji, married three times in her life. A woman with a rough fate, she changed her name to Wenji after conflicting with Sima Zhao's name taboo in the Jin Dynasty, and became Cai Wenji known to later generations.

Although I don't want to use it, but for the future, I can only use it last time. At least I don't need to marry Wei Zhongdao, a tuberculosis ghost who died of hemoptysis, and go down the old road of history, Liu Qi secretly thought.

Glancing at Xiao Wu, he said, "Do you think my lord needs to act like this?"

"Uh, am I worried about the lord? I heard that Wei Zhongdao is a well-known university scholar in Hedong, and his elder brother Wei Ji will accompany him this time and go to Luoyang together!" Xiao Wu said with a smile.

"Bachelor?" Liu Qi raised his mouth and said, "Let all the brothers who are away come back, and prepare to rush to Luoyang the day after tomorrow. We can't catch up with the previous grand event, so let's start from this step!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Xiao Wu also had a frenzied look on his face, he knew what Liu Qi wanted to do, and this time he paid attention to the Hedong Wei family and waited for the Hedong Wei family's actions to lay the foundation for the future.

There were 30 of them in total, all of them were rescued by Liu Qi, and they stayed by Liu Qi's side as bodyguards until the beginning of the year, only ten of them were left at the mansion, and the rest were all sent to inquire about the news.

From the information sent back one by one, Xiao Wu knew that Liu Qi was up to something serious, but he didn't ask. Now it seems that this is the rhythm to start, and he still can't help being excited. The main thing is that they only have 30 people. Be loyal to Liu Qi, not Liu Qi's father, Liu Biao.

"But my lord, Lord Inspector is there!" Xiao Wu said worriedly.

Liu Qi frowned, and also thought that after Liu Biao came to Jingzhou and married the Cai family, and his second brother Liu Cong had a good relationship with the Cai family, the Cai family often slandered Liu Biao around him, and Liu Biao favored the Cai family. , and because Liu Biao didn't like him because he abandoned literature and martial arts, the relationship has become worse and worse in the past six months.

I haven't summoned him once in the past two months, and sighed: "Forget it, I will tell you in person. This trip to Luoyang can't be missed, and with the purpose of proposing marriage, my father will agree to it!"

"Could it be that the lord doesn't make some arrangements before leaving Jingzhou?" Xiao Wu asked suspiciously.

"What's the arrangement?"

"My lord, I don't think my lord will come back so soon when I leave Jingzhou this time, but the second young master leans towards the Cai family in Jingzhou, and the Jingzhou Cai family also intends to support the second young master. I'm afraid that when the lord returns, Jingzhou is afraid...!" Xiao Wu was cautious. Said.

"Let's go with the flow!" Liu Qi sighed, helplessness flashed in his eyes, no matter how they are all relatives of this body, even if the soul is not, the flesh and blood of the body is still.

Even though it is an era where the weak prey on the strong, he is still unwilling to deal with Liu Biao and the others, saying: "I believe my father and second brother will not let me down, and what is mine is mine, no one can take it away! "

In the end, with the afterglow facing the dusk, it looks very domineering.

"I would like to go through fire and water, my lord, at any cost!" Xiao Wu was also infected by Liu Qi's arrogance, and knelt down on one knee to swear.

"Get up, if I didn't trust you, how could I personally train you for half a year, and then let you go out to find out the news, you must know that you are the backbone of my hands!" Liu Qi said.

"Thank you, my lord!"

"Okay, while letting the other brothers come back, you go to Nanyang City personally tonight, and invite two people over for me. Since my father doesn't want to reuse those two people, and they happen to go to Luoyang to lack manpower, then let me go to Luoyang. Grab those two people here!" Liu Qi ordered.

"Yes, my lord, but the governor's side!" Xiao Wu didn't understand why Liu Qi asked him to go to Nanyang to hire people at this time, and even though Nanyang City was part of Jingzhou, the governor of Jingzhou didn't have much control over Nanyang City.

"Bring some gifts to Nanyang City Lord, ask him for two front teeth generals, and say he will escort me to the capital. The City Lord who wants to come to Nanyang City will not refuse!" Liu Qi said lightly.

Xiao Wu nodded thoughtfully, and said, "I understand, it's just like how Lord Inspector did it when he was still the Marquis of the Northern Army!"

Liu Qi nodded and said, "Just bring it to the mansion tomorrow!"

At this moment, a guard from outside the door came in and said, "My lord, Lord Inspector sent someone here!"

Liu Qi looked at the door, and sure enough, he saw a person standing there, but was stopped by another guard, and he didn't let him in. He nodded to the guard, and then let the person Liu Biao sent in.

"Go down and make arrangements!" Liu Qi said to Xiao Wu when he saw the man approaching.

"Yes, my lord!"

Xiao Wu and the guards who came in to report bowed respectfully to salute, and then walked to the door, passing the people sent by Liu Biao.

"Eldest Young Master, Lord Inspector please invite Eldest Young Master to the City Lord's Mansion!" the person sent by Liu Biao saluted.

However, there was not much respect, it was just a superficial effort, after all the officials in Jingzhou city knew that Liu Biao didn't like Liu Qi.

"It just so happens that I also have something to discuss with my father, please!" Regarding the behavior of the messenger, Liu Qi was not angry, he was just a servant, and he couldn't make any big waves.

Originally, he was thinking of finding some reason to ask Liu Biao to see him, but now he doesn't even need to think about the reason, it is just in line with his wishes, he is in a good mood, and he doesn't need to think too much about the rest.

"My lord, please!" said the messenger.
