In the fifth year of the Han Dynasty, August 15, the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Liu Qi led the civil and military officials in Jingzhou County, as well as his younger brothers Liu Pan and Liu Hu, his wife Kuai Ruyu and others to Liu Biao's tomb and pay tribute to Liu Biao.

After serving as the right general, Liu Qi appointed Kuai Yue as the head of the general's mansion, Jia Xu as Sima, and enlisted Fanqin as Cang Cao Peng, Wang Cang as the literary Peng, Wei Yan as the soldier Cao Peng, and Sima Zhi as the meritorious Cao Peng.

Wang Cang first praised Liu Biao's achievements in his life: "In the fifth year of Wei Jian'an, the age of Gengchen, August 15, the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the unfilial man Liu Qi and others would like to sacrifice to the spirit of Mr. Jingsheng, the Marquis of Wenhou Liu Gongbiao, and said: Huh! Heaven is born of human beings, and it is the same as ...... The public is the history of Jingzhou's assassination, but the rebel thief blocked the road, the public single rode into Yicheng, let the virtuous use his ability, and sat on the seven counties of Jingxiang... The public starts the county school, the benevolent government, Jingzhou is rich and the people are rich, and the road is not forgotten, but the ancient sages are just like this...... Honest but not greedy, until death has no money to spare, can be described as a model of honest officials through the ages; The profundity of the public apparatus, the loftiness of the intellect, and the subtlety of the auxiliary academics, so it is full of articles, seen in discussions, heroic and handsome, and strange and ingenious. Those who accumulate in the middle are as vast as the ...... of the rivers that are stored."

Later, he praised Liu Qi's achievements: "The public has Ziqi, a corporal who is courteous and virtuous, humble and simple, has a deep command, is good at recognizing and employing people, although the ancient master is also difficult to reach, in just two years, the battle Jingnan, Pingjiaozhou, Dinghuaiyang, Xingjun Xue, heavy agricultural mulberry, An people, Bao Lishu, for the right general, Xiangyang County Marquis, Jingzhou Mu, purple ribbon gold seal, honorable honors, all of which are public education. ”

In the end, it was natural to let Liu Biao rest in peace under the nine springs, indicating that Liu Qi and others remembered and remembered.

After Liu Qi finished reading the sacrificial text and finished the sacrifice according to the etiquette, tears poured out like a spring, lying in front of the mound, and the mourning was endless.

It's not that Liu Qi deliberately pretended to be shown to outsiders, but he really felt sad. After he crossed into this world, he really felt his father Liu Biao's deep father-son affection for him, especially when he had just crossed back, because his stepmother Cai didn't like him, and slandered himself many times in front of his father, but his father didn't choose to believe it, and after that, behind the bloody battles again and again, there was always his father's unwavering support, no matter what materials he wanted, who he wanted, he would not hesitate to provide them to himself every time, even if his own nephew wanted to kill himself, and they were all resolutely disposed of, which made him dare not face his sister for a long time.

It is undeniable that this is a good father full of love, and his father's affection for him touched him, and he would rather not have his current status, but also enjoy the joy of family with his father, so that his father can spend his old age in peace.

It's just a pity that he has been fighting outside all the year round, and in the more than a year after the crossing, the time he lived with his father added up to less than two months, which made him unable to fulfill his filial piety at home for a long time, so that Liu Qi and Cai Mao took advantage of the loophole and poisoned his father to death.

And in the original history, if it weren't for his own too much edge, my father should have been able to live for nearly ten more years!

This is also where Liu Qi feels most sorry for his father!

Seeing Liu Qi's appearance, all the civil and military forces in Jingzhou wept, and they knelt down in front of Liu Qi one after another, and gently persuaded: "Lord, the body is the most important, General Zhennan has already driven away, he has a spirit in the sky, and he will definitely be proud of the foundation created by the lord, and the best way for the lord to comfort General Zhennan is naturally to do his best to develop and expand my Jingzhou." ”

Liu Qi was not for the show, seeing that everyone was persuading, he stopped his sad voice and said apologetically to everyone: "When the love comes, I can't help myself, so everyone laughs." ”

After that, Liu Qi led Kuai Ruyu, Liu Pan, Liu Hu and others to kowtow a few times to Liu Biao's cemetery, and secretly swore: "Father, please rest assured, the child will not live up to your expectations. ”

After leaving the cemetery, the deity of Liu Biao and his wife was moved to the ancestral temple that was completed not long ago, and then the temple ceremony was performed to his parents in the temple.

It was only now that Kuai Ruyu really became Liu Qi's wife.

In fact, this is also Liu Qi's insistence on reporting to his biological mother, otherwise, as early as the day after Liu Qi got married, Kuai Ruyu's identity was determined, but Kuai Ruyu didn't care much, she also supported Liu Qi's decision to report to his biological mother, and did not recognize Cai's mother-in-law.

However, even she didn't expect that she would hold a temple ceremony to her mother-in-law three months after getting married, but because Liu Qi was busy with the military, she forcibly delayed the matter for half a year.

After the end of the temple report, Kuai Ruyu had to follow the etiquette to his father Kuai Liang to make a temple report, and the two of them were busy for a whole day because of these complicated sacrificial activities.

Liu Qi took off his sacrificial clothes, changed into purple clothes, and feasted on the Mid-Autumn Festival with all the civil and military forces to celebrate this year's harvest.

Because the three-year system of keeping filial piety has not yet ended, Liu Qi only drank a few glasses of vegetarian wine, but with his encouragement, the civil and military officials all feasted and drank, and as a result, the banquet hall was in a mess, except for a few people such as Jia Xu and Buqi, most of the generals were drunk and fell to the ground, and there was no image at all.

After ordering people to settle these drunks, Liu Qi returned to his inner room with Kuai Ruyu.

Due to the mourning system, although the two have not seen each other for a long time, and their hearts are full of lust, they have to forcibly curb it, just sit with each other and confide in each other about the pain of lovesickness......

"Alas, the ancient mourning system is really troublesome, and after a person dies, is it just a thought? Even if you keep it for a few months, you can bear it, but it's three years, who can stand it for such a long time? ”

Although Liu Qi was dissatisfied, he could only have no choice but to carry it out, because even if he didn't care about the etiquette, Kuai Ruyu would never indulge himself like this, not to mention that those people under Liu Qi's command who attached importance to etiquette, such as Song Zhen, would definitely chase after him and preach vigorously.

"It's a bit devastating to be able to reach it, but you can't eat it, and I'm finally understanding why some people call these rituals 'cannibalistic rituals.'"

Of course, although Liu Qi wanted to cry without tears, he hated this hateful etiquette very much, but he just thought about it in his heart, and he didn't dare to declare it at all, because in this troubled world, he realized more that the orderliness of legislation can help him achieve the stability of social order, and can help him to accommodate famous generals. Since it's useless, how many people will not hesitate to defect to their twenties? Especially when two years ago I had nothing on my own.

Therefore, for the sake of the hegemony of the world and social harmony, he, Liu Qi, not only cannot oppose the legislation, but must vigorously advocate and take the lead in abiding by the etiquette law, so he not only can't eat Kuai Ruyu tonight, but he can't even have enough.

In the end, the helpless right general Liu Qi could only stay alone in the empty room, tossing and turning until dawn.

When he went to the council the next day, he saw Liu Qi with red and swollen eyes, and all the civil and military officers nodded with satisfaction, and Liu Xian also respectfully persuaded: "The lord, the lower officials and others all know that the lord misses Wenhou more, and his heart is oversad, the lord is the pure benevolence and filial piety of the son of man, and he is a model for the people of the world, but the lord should also pay attention to the body, excessive grief will make people sick, the lord should think about a better place, to think about how to complete the unfinished business of Wenhou, today the sky is just right, the autumn is crisp, and there is nothing to do in the house, If the lord is depressed, it is better to go out to hunt and evacuate the mood. ”

Liu Qi suddenly felt crying and laughing when he heard this, because his eyes were red and swollen not because of his sad father, but actually because of the evil fire, he couldn't sleep after turning and turning, but he couldn't explain it, otherwise, he would definitely be blamed by those people of etiquette.

sighed secretly in his heart, but Liu Qi didn't dare to express his appearance, so he had to thank Liu Xian for his kindness, and then deduced that he was going to inspect the Ordnance Department today, and refused Liu Xian's offer to let him go out hunting.

Liu Xian saw that Liu Qi still had something to do, so he had no choice but to give up, but he still persuaded a few words again, and then retreated with Zhongwen and Wushili.

After the generals retired, Liu Qi quietly ordered the scholar Liu An to inform his wife Kuai Ruyu, as well as the concubines Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao and Huang Yueying, who had already been named and had not yet been included in the mansion, and asked them to go to Huang Yueying's hut of the Ordnance Department to reunite.

After that, in the name of inspecting the Ordnance Division, Liu Qi took Liu Shi and Zhang Tong's two guards to the Ordnance Division located in a courtyard in the Right General's Mansion.

Because this is only responsible for research, not responsible for production, so in addition to some necessary guards, there are almost few people, after Liu Qi came here, the whole courtyard seems particularly quiet, the small courtyard is planted with all kinds of chrysanthemums, so that the courtyard is full of flowers, plus the courtyard is cleaned up, people can't help but feel relaxed and happy after seeing it, and admire.

"Oh my God, since Yue Ying restored her daughter's body, she has become so diligent? This is really the eighteen changes of the female university, and the more it changes, the more amazing it becomes. Looking at the patchwork, neat and fragrant courtyard, Liu Qi couldn't help but praise loudly.

"Hehe, are you praising the slave family or derogating others? Can't you leave some virtue in your mouth? Before the words fell, Liu Qi saw an unusually beautiful girl coming, and was stunned on the spot.
