Chapter 044 This kind of thing, you have to play politics!

Back at the eldest prince's mansion, after thinking about it, Liu Qi always felt that things were not as simple as he thought.

Huo Qubing is a genius in military affairs, but when it comes to these political intrigues, he is also blind.

Not to mention Li Cunxiao, he is still fighting with that assassin!

There was no choice but to sneak Liu Wenjing out of the game and ask for his opinion.

The big guy is the big guy, Liu Wenjing just roughly heard what happened in the court meeting, and asked two more questions about the current situation in Jingzhou, so he smiled happily: "Congratulations to the lord, congratulations to the lord!" ”

Liu Qi blinked: "Where does the joy come from?" ”

"The envoy knocked Cai Mao and Zhang Yun, and ordered the two of them to thoroughly investigate the murder of the lord, it seems that the Cai family's hand is too long, which makes the envoy dissatisfied."

"Of course I know." Liu Qi was still puzzled, "But my son was almost killed, and it was just a few words of reprimand for the Cai family, my father, but he didn't even mention the name of my good second brother, what's the gratification?" ”

is afraid that Cai Jiawei will not be able to fall, and he is just worried that Liu Cong will not be able to control them after succeeding to the throne.

Liu Qi thought very clearly, even if he tossed around well this month, it was far from enough compared to Liu Cong, who had been operating in Hanshou Mansion for many years and was fighting with the help of Cai Mao.

Today he was assassinated, and Liu Biao beat Cai Mao.

In other words, if he thinks about Liu Cong and puts it into action, I'm afraid it won't be as simple as verbal beating.

Liu Wenjing smiled and shook his head: "Lord, you are drilling the horns of the bull." ”

"Please forgive my subordinates for bluntly saying that in the heart of the envoy, the second son is the hope for the survival of Jingzhou. The king thinks that he has encountered too many walls in the past and has lost his desire to forge ahead, and the second son is the person he chose to keep the success. ”

"Facts have proved that with the help of the Jingzhou family, it may be difficult for the second son to expand his territory, and it seems that there is no problem in keeping the foundation, but the envoy also knows that it is a troubled time now."

"Troubled times have their own rules, that is, if you are strong, you will be strong, and if you are weak, you will die!"

"Bringing the monarch back to discuss the affairs of Yizhou has already reflected a change in the lord's view. Now that you are beating Cai Mao and Zhang Yun in front of the lord, and making it clear that you want to compensate the lord, do you really not understand what the envoy means? ”

Liu Qi suddenly realized: "Zhaoren is saying that my father has already seen me?" ”

Liu Wenjing nodded: "The lord resisted the bandits and collected the displaced people in Yancheng, and with the assistance of the Kuai family, Yancheng is thriving, and then he has offered the method of making oil and cement, which is enough to see the ability of the lord." ”

"It's just that as an heir, whether it's repairing the city or improving people's livelihood, it's just a small section. You can do it, and so can the second son. ”

"What you expect is that you can show some talents that the second son does not have."

Speaking of this, Liu Wenjing's eyes suddenly burst into light, and she stared at Liu Qi: "For example, expand the territory!" ”

Liu Qi was shocked, and suddenly realized: "According to what Mr. said, the matter of Yizhou is my opportunity!" ”

"Not bad!" Liu Wenjing stroked her smooth chin and smiled, "The lord behaved very well in the court today, a son who has been wronged and hopes that his father will be the master, at least arouses a little bit of fatherly love for the envoy, and this is enough." ”

"The next step is to let the envoy see that the lord is not only capable, but also different from the second son, you love your brother and honor your parents, the reason why the assassin did not show great strength is because Jingzhou is the envoy's Jingzhou after all, as a son, but also a subordinate, you should maintain the majesty of the envoy."

"You trust your father and defend your father, so you don't want to do it, not you can't do it! The first thing to do is to hand over the assassin to Lord Governor, who naturally understands the mind and realm of the lord. ”

Liu Wenjing analyzed strongly, Liu Qimao suddenly opened, only to feel that the road ahead suddenly became clear, and immediately sent someone to send the assassin to Liu Biao.

Originally, it was planned to develop in Yizhou to avoid cannibalism between father and son.

According to Liu Qi's original idea, he planned to avoid that good brother and concentrate on running Yizhou, and wait for Liu Biao's life to woo and Liu Cong succeed to the throne before he did his job.

This approach can ensure maximum safety without losing morality, the only problem is that it will drag on for too long, and there are likely to be other variables.

And with Liu Cong in the way, it will become very difficult to go north to the Central Plains.

But now, since the inheritance can be taken away from Liu Cong reasonably and legally, why do you need to take those detours!

"According to what Mr. said, what should Liu Qi do now?" Liu Qi asked sincerely.

Liu Wenjing took a map: "What does the lord think, what is the location of Yancheng?" ”

Liu Qi looked down carefully.

Yancheng is in the north of Jingzhou, adjacent to Yuzhou, and hundreds of miles away is Yuan Shu's territory.

However, it was not a military location, and was surrounded by high mountains, with only a small river running through the city, which was the only source of water.

Although bandits are frequent, they are not taken seriously because of the barren land and the obstruction of access roads.

As far as the choice of base area is concerned, it is indeed not a good base camp.

But there was no way to send it, when Liu Qi first came through, the original owner only had the name of the eldest son, and had neither a position nor power.

If it weren't for Cai Mao holding back the bad water and wanting to use the bandits in Yancheng as an excuse to let him die outside, I'm afraid he wouldn't even have such a place as Yancheng!

It would be nice to have a place to stay, and it was not his turn to pick and choose.

However, this time is different from the past, as soon as Liu Wenjing said it, Liu Qi understood: "Mr. asked me to fight with my father and go to another place to guard?" ”

"Yes, if the lord wants to make the monarch a little better, it is naturally not possible to stay in Yancheng." Liu Wenjing's slender fingers swiped across the map, and finally, he drew a circle in one place, "Wuling Taishou, if you can fight for it, it is the best." ”

Liu Qi's eyes lit up at first, and then he shook his head: "Wuling is too important, my father won't agree." ”

If it were Liu Cong, Liu Biao might be willing to give this opportunity to exercise, but unlike him, Liu Qi is still very self-aware.

Liu Wenjing was not surprised: "In this way, Nanjun can also do it." If it is based on Nanjun, it will go west to Tuyizhou, and face the Central Plains across Nanyang, so that it will not be blocked, but it will not be involved in the Central Plains battle too quickly, which is also excellent. ”

Liu Qi nodded again and again when he heard this, but he was still a little hesitant: "Don't hide it, sir, with how much my father values me, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to allow me to be a county." ”

The seven counties of Jingzhou, the Taishou and the assassin of each county are all important ministers under Liu Biao, and they cannot be moved lightly.

Although the original owner was later driven by Liu Biao to be Jiangxia Taishou, it was also to make room for the second son, not because he valued Liu Qi.

When Liu Wenjing heard this, she shook her head: "Don't worry, the lord can't die for a while, why don't you wait for the news of Si Li and Xuzhou first?" ”

Xuzhou has just been slaughtered by Boss Cao, and it is estimated that it will be Liu Daer's territory in a short time.

And Si Li......

Liu Qi patted his head: "Look at my memory, but I forgot Xu Yuanzhi!" ”

Xu Shu is doing something in Chang'an!
