Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 664 The Situation of Tai Shici
Since the truce.

More than a month has passed, and the land of the Central Plains is very calm on the surface. It seems that Wei, Wu, and Han have acquiesced in the current rule, and they have not taken any radical actions.

The three parties are all consolidating their own territory, and have not violated it externally.

The people in the Central Plains lived very comfortably during this period of time. After all, there was no war, so they didn't need to have any psychological pressure.

And if there is a war, even if it is not initiated against them, it will inevitably affect them when the soldiers of both sides attack the city and plunder the land. If there is no restraint in the army, it will also affect them themselves.

But they all know that whether there will be a war or not is not something they can decide, but the rulers above. Even if they want to live a stable and ordinary life, they can only pray that the Central Plains is now divided. The situation is over soon.

Maybe then, their ideas will be realized.

……

Chengdu.

In the imperial garden of the Imperial Palace of the Han Dynasty.

Liu Qi, Li Ru, and Guo Jia sat in a gazebo, drinking tea and talking.

Since Ren Cheng came back.

Liu Qi has been sitting in Chengdu during this time, dealing with various important affairs, and has not left.

Moreover, after Zhao Yun and others led the army back from Shouchun, they held a funeral for Zhang Ren, Gan Ning, and many other soldiers who died in battle in front of the "martyr's tombstone" that had been built before, and recovered the money. With each official position.

Although it is of no use to those who died in battle, this is what he should do.

Not asking for anything else, just asking for peace of mind, that's all.

"Is there any news about Ziyi?" Liu Qi asked suddenly.

They were talking about other things, but Liu Qi suddenly asked about finding Tai Shici, which made both Guo Jia and Li Ru stunned.

Immediately, the two also reacted and looked at each other with helplessness in their eyes.

"Return to Your Majesty, not yet!" Guo Jia said, "It has been more than a month now, and the spies sent out to investigate, and the spies in various places to pay attention, have not found any trace of General Taishi, and at that time It was dark at night, and the river was too violent, and General Taishi was injured, so he fell into the river, maybe...!"

Having said that, he didn't continue talking.

"That's right!" Li Ru also said, "Your Majesty, the ministers are also concerned about the situation of General Taishi, but we still need to recognize the truth. The chance of General Taishi's survival is very small!"

Compared with Guo Jia, Li Ru's words are outspoken.

The key point is directly proposed.

heard.

A trace of sadness flashed in Liu Qi's eyes.

How could he not know that what the two said was the truth, but if he didn't see it, he still had some prayers in his heart.

But for more than a month, apart from the spies sent out to look for it, plus the spies who were originally hidden in various places, after the two parties searched, nothing was found. Logically speaking, such a situation would not have happened.

There is only one reason why this is possible, and that is that he has already been buried in the bottom of the river!

Otherwise, it is impossible not to find the trace.

"Alas~!" Liu Qi sighed, and said: "Let the scouts continue to search for a month. If they can't find it again, they will withdraw it. There is no need to search any longer. Let's chase it down then!"

Although I know what's going on in my heart, it's another thing to do it.

There is still a glimmer of hope in my heart, everything has the possibility of accidents, but if I search for another month, that is the limit, and there is no point in searching any longer, after all, it has been so long, if I am still alive, I should come back As for not coming back and not being able to find any traces, it is obviously impossible.

Moreover, in the previous funeral, he did not posthumously seal Tai Shici because he still had hope in his heart, but when the hope was gone, he still needed to posthumously.

"promise!"

Li Ru and Guo Jia looked at each other and agreed.

In fact, both of them also have hope in their hearts, hoping that Tai Shici can survive, after all, they have the same relationship with Tai Shici, and they have worked together for so many years.

However, it will not affect thinking because of feelings.

And the suggestion given by Liu Qi will not have any impact on the national conditions. It is just sending hundreds of spies, and there is no problem at all.

Liu Qi's approach also made them feel gratified.

As Liu Qi's subordinates, they don't want their master to be a ruthless person. Even if they make contributions to him, they may not end well in the end.

Just like Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty, few of the heroes who founded the country for him could die well.

Liu Qi nodded, but didn't say much.

Although he made such an arrangement, he still felt a little confused in his heart. There was no news for more than a month, and it would be very difficult to have any changes in another month.

After all, it was not simply looking for a living person, but looking for a person who fell into the river and was still injured.

After searching for more than a month, there is no news. The chance of survival can be said to be very small, or it can be said to be non-existent.

but.

In life, you want to see people; in death, you want to see corpses!
Under such conditions, he still has some hope.

Otherwise, how could there be an order to search for another month.

All he could rely on now was to see Tai Shici's own fate, or what happened to God's will.

thought here.

Liu Qi didn't continue to think about this issue, and there was no change in thinking about it. Even he was powerless to do anything about such a thing, so he could only send someone to look for it.

Live or die, it depends on the final result.

Then he changed the subject and said, "How is the situation in Qingzhou now?"

Qingzhou was originally the territory of Qi State. Although he has already captured it, it does not mean that it can become his territory if it is captured.

It still needs to be stabilized, and it also needs to be governed. Officials from all over the country must be wooed or replaced directly, so that the people of Qingzhou agree with their control. That's okay.

Only then can it truly be regarded as their territory.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the situation in Qingzhou has been completely controlled, and the Mi family brothers are now coming from Qingzhou to Chengdu!" Li Ruhui reported.

He and Guo Jia are the left and right prime ministers, and he is in charge of government affairs, so all governance matters are handled by him.

He is also somewhat familiar with the current situation in Qingzhou.

Only then was he able to quickly answer Liu Qi's question.

"That's great!" Liu Qi nodded.

Now that he has seized the territory of Qi State, he doesn't want any chaos in it.

As for the Mi brothers coming to Chengdu, it was also his order.
