Chapter 182: Repay the Nation
The face of the green-shirted scribe instantly swelled with flattery.
The dignified prince of Jingzhou can put down his dignity and treat him, a grass people, with the courtesy of kneeling, which is already the supreme courtesy.
This is the gift of the countryman.
"Eldest son, please get up quickly, you kneel, you are tormenting me." The green-shirted scribe hurriedly helped Liu Qi up, and moved between his eyebrows.
Liu Qi couldn't afford to kneel, and choked up: "Qi was killed by the Su thief to be like this, but my father couldn't avenge me, and he wanted to bend his knees with the Su thief, Qi was resentful in his heart, if Mr. refused to help me avenge my hatred, Liu Qi couldn't kneel for a long time." ”
As he spoke, he bowed down deeply with his head.
The green-shirted scribe was helpless, so he had to nod and said: "The eldest prince treats me as a national scholar, and I will repay him as a national scholar, so please get up quickly." ”
Liu Qi was overjoyed, and then he was helped up, and the two entered the hut together.
The door was closed, a glass of thin wine was served, and Liu Qi drank the wine, only to calm down his excitement slightly.
"Although Su Zhe was able to break Huang Zu's 60,000 army, which was beyond my expectations, isn't Liu Jingzhou determined to do his best to recapture Fancheng, what is the reason for this, eldest prince?" The green-shirted Confucian had suspicion on his face.
Liu Qi sighed, gritted his teeth and scolded: "The original plan was like this, but Huang Zu's man suddenly led his Jiangxia soldiers to evacuate without authorization on the grounds of the Xiakou rebellion. ”
"Huang Zu returned to Xiakou without authorization?" The green-shirted Confucian was slightly surprised.
"Yes, this Huang Zu ruined my revenge plan, it's really hateful." Liu Qi scolded indignantly.
The green-shirted Confucian was silent, and thoughts flowed in his eyes.
After a while, he said: "Although Huang Zu is flying and domineering, he will not dare to ignore Liu Jingzhou's order to withdraw without authorization at such a critical moment, unless it is a last resort. ”
"The unavoidable reason? What could he have to do? Liu Qi didn't believe it.
The green-shirted Confucian said: "I heard that Huang Shot fell into the hands of Su Thief, and Huang Zu is such a lone seedling, I guess that Huang Zu must have been threatened by Su Zhe, so he had to retreat without authorization." ”
Liu Qi's expression was shocked, and he suddenly realized, but said again: "That Su thief has already caught Huang Jie, why didn't you threaten it earlier, but at this time." ”
The green-shirted Confucian sighed lightly: "This Su Zhe knows how to grasp the timing very well, when Huang Zu's 60,000 army pressed the border, it was expected that he would not dare to shoot Huang Shot, so even if he wanted to threaten it, it would be useless." ”
"And now that Huang Zu is defeated, our strength has been greatly weakened, and we no longer have an overwhelming advantage over Su Zhe, at this time, even if Su Zhe kills Huang Zu, Huang Zu may not be able to take revenge, so at this time, using Huang Shot to threaten Huang Zu will be more effective."
Only then did Liu Qi come to his senses, and he couldn't help but scold Su Zhe for being shameless.
After scolding for a while, Liu Qi said: "No matter what, if my father and Su Thief make peace, my revenge will be far away, I really can't swallow this breath, I specially ask Mr. to come up with a plan for me." ”
The green-shirted Confucian was silent again, brushing his short beard lightly, and was silent for a long time.
Liu Qi didn't dare to interrupt his contemplation, so he could only be silently anxious beside him.
After a while, the green-shirted Confucian said: "If Gongzi insists on taking revenge on Na Su Zhe, I do have a plan here, but I am afraid that there will be some risks, and it will also put Gongzi and Liu Jingzhou in a situation of dishonesty and injustice." ”
"Tell me, what's the plan?" Liu Qi's eyes swelled with a glimmer of hope, and he couldn't wait to ask.
The green-shirted Confucian took a light breath and slowly explained his strategy.
The more Liu Qi listened, the more excited he became, his face was so surprised that he distorted, and he said excitedly: "Sir's plan, it's really wonderful, Su Zhe is so complacent at the moment, he would never have thought of it." ”
"Is the eldest prince determined to use this trick?" The blue-shirted Confucian asked.
"Yes, why not, as long as you can take revenge on that thief, it doesn't matter what kind of scheme." Liu Qi cut the railway.
The green-shirted Confucian was silent.
Liu Qi pressed the ecstasy, arched his hand, and said: "Sir, now that my father is becoming more and more cold to me, he has intended to make my second brother the heir, and I have lost the support of the Cai family, and now it is difficult, I implore Mr. to go out of the mountain and help me turn things around." ”
A trace of reluctance flashed in the eyes of the green-shirted Confucian scholar, but in his mind, he immediately remembered Liu Qi's condescending kneeling.
He took a deep breath, got up, and said: "I also said that the son will treat me as a national soldier, and I will be a national soldier in return. ”
Liu Qi was overjoyed, and was busy holding the hand of the Confucian scholar in the green shirt tightly, and said excitedly: "With the assistance of a peerless wizard like Mr., why can't I Liu Qi turn things around, hahaha~~"
In his laughter, a little pride was rekindled.
After seeking this strategy, Liu Qi bid farewell to the Confucian scholars in green shirts, rode his horse and galloped, and returned to Xiangyang.
At nightfall, he stood in front of Liu Mian.
In the empty study, there were only his father and son.
"Qi'er is so late, and she hasn't rested, is there anything important?" Liu Biao lowered his head and commented on the official documents, without even looking up at him.
Recently, Liu Biao has been troubled by all kinds of bad things, and he is naturally in no mood and no time to take this son who has not seen him for a long time.
Liu Qi forcibly suppressed the grievances in his heart, and arched his hand: "Father, my son came to ask for a meeting this time, just to ask my father, does my father really want to make a truce with that thief, and really want to sit back and watch that traitor take root under our noses, and really swallow this humiliating and evil breath?" ”
Liu Biao's body was shocked, the pen was hanging in the air, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, obviously being poked in the sore spot by his son.
Only then did he put down the pen, slowly raised his no, and stared at Liu Qi with displeasure.
After looking at each other for a moment, Liu Biaocai sighed: "Then what do you want to do with your father, Huang Zu took away the most elite Jiangxia soldiers, even if you want to take revenge for your father, what can you take to take revenge?" ”
The corners of Liu Qi's mouth hooked up a touch of coldness, and he said in a deep voice: "If the father believes in the son, the son has a plan, and he can take revenge!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Liu Biao's body was shocked, and a fine light swept up in his eyes.
He stood up, walked down the steps, looked at Liu Qi and said, "Qi'er, do you really have any clever plans?" ”
Liu Qi used a cold tone to explain his strategy word by word.
Liu Biao listened, a trace of excitement swelled between his eyebrows, hope was rekindled in his eyes, and he paced with his hands in his hands for a while, and his thoughts were surging.
"Father, the thief was so satisfied, he never expected us to do this, this plan will be successful." Liu Qi said confidently.
Liu Biao stopped, his eyes showed hesitation, and said: "This plan is indeed a clever plan, but if my father does this, he will not become a dishonest person and be ashamed of the world." ”
"To deal with a traitor like Su Thief, you don't need to worry about any credit at all." Liu Qi said categorically, "I believe that everyone in the world wants to bring down the Su thief as soon as possible, and they will definitely not have any criticism of my father." ”
"Let me think about it, let me think about it......" Liu Biao continued to pace, his eyes surging with a complicated look.
Liu Qi was in a hurry, and he had to be persuaded again, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back, not daring to urge too much.
In the study, Liu Biao's footsteps echoed.
After a long time, Liu Biao suddenly turned around, and the hunting machine was already rushing out of his eyes.
He took a deep breath, brushed his hand and said: "Su Zhe traitor, it's just a matter of rebelling against me, and killing my soldiers and seizing my city. ”
He already knew what he meant, and he wanted to use Liu Qi's plan.
Liu Qi was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "My father is wise, and my son is willing to personally lead the troops to wash away the shame of my Liu family." ”
"You? Qi'er, your injury ......" Liu Biao suddenly hesitated again.
Liu Qi showed a sad look on his face, and pleaded: "Er knows that Er has become a waste now, and he can no longer inherit the incense for our Liu family, and Son is willing to assist the second brother in the future, Son has no complaints, only begging his father to give Son a chance to take revenge." ”
Liu Biao's heart was shocked, and he suddenly felt a trace of sourness.
Liu Qi stabbed the window paper, and made it clear that he already knew that Liu Biao planned to abolish his heir status and replace his second brother Liu Cong, and Baba expressed his willingness to accept this fact, just hoping to have a chance to take revenge.
has come to this point, if Liu Biao, who is a father, still doesn't agree, wouldn't it be too ruthless.
Liu Qi had to sigh: "Alas, Qi'er, since you said so, can you still agree to it as a father, this battle will be under your full command." ”
"Thank you, father!" Liu Qi was overjoyed, knelt on the ground, and thanked him again and again.
Liu Biao helped Liu Qi up, stroked his shoulders and said, "Qi'er, this war is related to the survival of my Liu family's foundation in Jingzhou, don't let your father be disappointed again." ”
Liu Qi said angrily: "Father, don't worry, this time, I will never let my father down again, I want that Su thief to spit out everything that was snatched from our Liu family!" ”
……
A few days later, Fancheng.
At the north gate, thousands of Soviet soldiers were marching out of the city and setting off to the north in an orderly manner.
That Han Song had already gone to Wancheng to meet the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven, under the instruction of Su Zhe, as a mediator, ordered Su Zhe and Liu Biao to rest their troops and guard the existing borders.
Liu Biao got off the donkey, and after receiving the edict of thanksgiving, he began to withdraw the army on the south bank of the Han River on a large scale.
The threat from the south was officially lifted, and Su Zhe no longer needed to garrison Fancheng with a large army, spending money and food, so he ordered Gan Ning to continue to lead 2,000 soldiers and horses to defend Fancheng, and he himself led the rest of the soldiers and horses to return to Fancheng in the north.
As for Huangfu Song's 5,000 soldiers and horses, of course Su Zhe did not plan to make him return to Wancheng, but in the name of the Son of Heaven, he asked him to garrison troops in Xinye as a backup for the front line of Fancheng.
The army left the city, marched all the way north, and arrived at Xinye in a few days.
The two armies of the Han army and the Soviet army divided their troops, one went to Xinye to garrison, and the other continued to go north around the city.
"Old General Yizhen, then let's leave it at that, the matter in the south will be bothered by Old General Lao Yizhen." Su Zhe said goodbye.
Huangfu Song also bowed his hand: "The matter in the south, with me here, although Su Mansion Yin can rest assured, on the side of the Son of Heaven, there will be Lao Su Mansion Yin bothered to protect." ”
"That's nature."
The two exchanged polite words and prepared to leave.
At this moment, a horse galloped from the south, claiming to be Gan Ning's messenger, and an urgent letter was delivered.
It's only been a few days since you left, and there is an emergency in Fancheng?
Huangfu Song stopped and looked at Su Zhe.
Su Zhe looked suspicious, took the letter, opened it and looked at it, and couldn't help but smile.
