315. Seek the calculation of Kong Ming
Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao's condition was aggravated because of Huang Zu's death. This made the Cai family act more unscrupulously, Cai Mao, Cai Zhong and Cai He and the three brothers each went to win over the people of other families in Jingzhou, making it clear that they wanted to take the throne after Liu Biao left, and the second son Liu Zong.
Liu Qi, the eldest son in Fancheng, heard that his father was seriously ill, so he took people back to Xiangyang City to visit. Who knew that he was turned away by Mrs. Cai's order. Not only that, but also as a famous saying on the street, the state pastor said: He will not need to return to Xiangyang in the future.
Liu Qi was furious when he heard this, but he knew that he could hardly compete with the Cai family in Xiangyang City. So Liu Qi left angrily and rushed straight to Kuai's house. At this time, the brothers of the Kuai family are also discussing countermeasures, and Liu Biao will die, which is an indisputable fact! How to continue the family has become their biggest problem now. Previously, because he supported the eldest son Liu Qi, he had all the conflicts with the Cai family. I thought that if the Cai family was in power, they would inevitably attack the Kuai family. Who knew that just this morning, Cai Mao ordered someone to send a handwritten letter.
The letter said: As long as the Kuai family supports the accession of the second son, Liu Zong, the past can no longer be investigated. And after Liu Zong's accession to the throne, the interests of the Kuai family will still be protected.
The Kuai brothers took the letter and discussed it for a long time, but they still couldn't make up their minds. At this moment, someone came to report: The eldest prince Liu Qi has arrived!
The two brothers glanced at each other, Kuai Liang quietly received the letter in his sleeve, and then ordered his subordinates to invite the eldest prince Liu Qi up. After Liu Qi came in, he saluted the two and said, "Two gentlemen, Liu Qi is uninvited!" Disturbed the two Qing Xiu. ”
Kuai Yue smiled: "The eldest prince is a distinguished guest, and it is too late for us to be happy to come to Kuai's house, so why bother." Come on, come on, please take a seat. ”
Liu Qi was as good as a stream, and after sitting down, he chatted with the two of them for a few words. At this time, the subordinates withdrew after serving tea. Liu Qi's face changed when he saw that there were no outsiders, and he said with tears in his eyes: "Have the two gentlemen seen their father recently?" I want to enter the house today to ask my father for peace, but I don't want to be stopped by the Cai family! She dared to lie about her father's words, saying that I don't have to go back to Xiangyang in the future. Now that the Cai family is the dominant family in Xiangyang City, I really have no way out, so I came to beg the two gentlemen to show me the way, and let me go to see my father! ”
The Kuai brothers' faces also changed when they heard this, and they actually heard another meaning in these words. Cai's obstruction of Liu Qi from facing Liu Biao in Hainan, it must be that Liu Biao is unsightly at the moment. Don't...... Thinking of this, the two glanced at each other, and both sighed secretly, it seems that the letter in the morning is an ultimatum, if the lord Liu Biao is really dead, what will be good?
"Ahem!" Kuai Liang coughed lightly and said to Liu Qi: "The eldest prince is not willing to help you, but this is really your family matter, and I can't interfere with outsiders!" However, if you can come to Kuai Mansion today, it means that the Cai family does not dare to blatantly harm you, and they will not be allowed to attack you if they want to come to the state pastor. However, at this time, Xiangyang is already a place of right and wrong, and it is better for the eldest prince to leave quickly. ”
Liu Qi burst into tears when he heard this and said: "Once I go, Qi may not be able to see his father's last face!" ”
"Gotcha! He already knows how to love him! Thinking in his heart, Kuai Yue's old face turned red and said: "The eldest prince doesn't have to be too pessimistic, the state pastor has his own natural appearance, and he will be able to survive this catastrophe." I recommend one person here, or you can give guidance to the eldest son! ”
"Who?" Liu Qi stopped his tears and hurriedly asked.
"Mr. Water Mirror, Sima De yes! Only he can answer your questions! Kuai Yue said.
When Liu Qi heard this, he hurriedly got up and saluted: "Thank you Mr. for your advice, then I won't bother anymore!" I'm going to rush to Shuijing Villa to find Mr. Shuijing for advice. After saying goodbye, the Kuai brothers did not keep him. Watching Liu Qi walk away, Kuai Liang sighed and said, "It's a filial son, but the Cai family is powerful!" What a solution! ”
"My brother wants me to say that they are all state pastors, if it weren't for his acquiescence, how could Jingzhou make the Cai family dominant." Kuai Yue said angrily.
"Second brother be cautious! It's no longer useful to talk about it! ”
"Big brother, what do you see?"
"Leave it to you, just say to Cai Mao, it's good that my Kuai family can keep the original interests, and we won't participate in the rest." Kuai Yue nodded and said, "Big brother, I understand, I'll go to find Cai Mao." With that, he got up and walked outside. Kuai Liang watched Kuai Yue go away, and couldn't help but feel a burst of emotion. There is a way that is a hero in the twilight, thinking how high-spirited Liu Biao is to come to Jingzhou alone, but he doesn't want to be in the house now, and he doesn't even know his own son. Look at the Kuai family again, although it has also developed over the years, it is still far from the Cai family, and it is difficult to match at this moment, so there is only one way to surrender.
Kuai Liang sighed and didn't mention it, and Liu Qi traveled all the way, and he came to Shuijing Villa without even eating lunch. As soon as the gatekeeper heard that Liu Qi was coming, he immediately let him see Zhuangzhong. Liu Qi came to the lobby and sat down, and soon after, Mr. Shuijing Sima Hui brought a young man to the lobby.
When Liu Qi saw Mr. Shuijing, he hurriedly got up and saluted: "Sir, I have something urgent to ask you, and I hope you don't shirk it." Before Mr. Shui Jing could answer, he recounted what had happened.
After finishing speaking, Liu Qi looked at Mr. Shui Jing nervously, hoping to get his guidance. How do you know that Mr. Shui Jing shook his head with a smile and said, "I can't help you with your problem!" But he can, but it's up to you whether you can ask him for your help! Mr. Shui Jing said as he pointed to the young man standing behind him, and then got up with a smile and walked away.
The young man also wanted to leave, but Liu Qi grabbed his sleeve and pleaded: "Please also ask Mr. to help me!" ”
"Don't drag my clothes, don't pull my clothes, if you have something to say!" The young man frowned and spoke.
Liu Qi didn't let go, but he pulled a little harder, and then he said, "I haven't asked for Mr.'s name yet." ”
"In the next Zhuge Liang word Kong Ming!" The youth replied. That's right, he is Zhuge Liang who was left here by Han Fei to study, more than two years have passed, and now Zhuge Liang has passed immaturity and become mature.
Liu Qi said immediately: "Mr. Zhuge , I just want to see my father, and please ask Mr. to remember that I must fulfill my filial piety." ”
"This ......" Zhuge Liang hesitated for a while, and he didn't want to get involved in these things at this time. Liu Qi saw Zhuge Liang hesitate, and at this time he suddenly remembered something before. Speaking of which, when Han Fei was there, he once inadvertently mentioned it to him. If you want to plan for someone, you can put an empty house with a partition on it, and you need to use a ladder to go up. When the time comes, bring the person to the top, and then remove the ladder. That way, he couldn't leave without a plan.
Liu Qi suddenly thought of this, and his mind suddenly lit up. He said to Zhuge Liang: "Mr. Zhuge I have a treasure that can be used as a reward for Mr. Zhuge 's plan." It is a treasure in my house. Sir, if you have nothing to do, you can go with me and see how it goes. I'm sure my husband will come up with a plan for me when he sees this. ”
