From Xiangyang to Jiangxia, it only takes a few days.

However, for Liu Qi, Jiangxia still seems a little novel. This is the front line of the battle between Jingzhou and Jiangdong, and it is also the key to the entire eastern defense line of Jingzhou.

Everyone rode their horses, but they arrived at Jiangxia City in half a day.

There is already a team ahead to greet you.

Liu Qi looked at it, and the person at the head was a little old, but not too old, at most about the same as Huang Zhong.

Although it was the first time he had met, he already had a guess in his mind.

This is most likely Huang Zu.

Sure enough, as the two sides gradually approached, the old man stepped forward and said to Liu Qi:

"Huang Zu has seen the son!"

Frankly speaking, Liu Qi was a little surprised at this moment.

Originally, in his imagination, Huang Zu should have been a little arrogant, and then relied on the old to sell the old, but he took the initiative to greet him.

As soon as his thoughts turned, Liu Qi smiled and said:

"Mrs. Huang is polite, my son just came to take a look, why did you come out in person?"

Huang Zu's expression remained unchanged, but he couldn't help but slander in his heart.

If you believe, you will have demons.

Huang Zu has been in Jiangxia for many years, and his ability to judge the situation is not covered. Although he didn't know Liu Qi's purpose, since he came to Jiangxia in person, it was definitely not that simple.

In short, just be careful.

I saw Huang Zule laughing and saying:

"Where is the prince, it is hard to come all the way from Xiangyang, you all go into the city to rest first.

His subordinates have already prepared a feast. ”

While speaking, Huang Zu glanced at Liu Qi's side, Xue Li naturally didn't know him, but when he saw Gan Ning, Huang Zu felt a little familiar, but that's all.

Even if Gan Ning has made many military exploits, he is just a nobody.

Everyone entered Jiangxia City together.

As Huang Zu said, before he left the city, he had already asked people to prepare a banquet, and it had been arranged at this moment.

In the Jiangxia Mansion.

Everyone sat down, and Liu Qi naturally fell on the chief.

Looking around, Liu Qi smiled and said:

"Ben Gongzi has gone all the way, Jiangxia has been under the care of Mrs. Huang, and the people have lived and worked in peace and contentment, which is really a great contribution."

At this moment, Huang Zu still couldn't figure it out.

In his eyes, Liu Qi is harmless to humans and animals, but it is this kind of smiling face that makes him a little uneasy.

can only pretend to greet him:

"The son of the world has a good reputation, and this is all the credit of Liu Jingzhou.

If it weren't for Liu Jingzhou's good management, Jiangxia would also be difficult to stabilize, and his subordinates heard that the prince was in Xiangyang, and took down Cai Mao and other traitors, so that Jingzhou could return to stability, which is really a feat! ”

Liu Qi nodded slowly and said:

"What Mrs. Huang said is actually not the credit of my son, but the single-minded planning of the military advisor."

Hearing this, Huang Zu suddenly became interested.

That's what he cares about the most.

Liu Qi is not to be feared, but Wolong can't be taken lightly, after all, Cai Mao and others have been taken down by him.

So Huang Zu asked meaningfully:

"I see, my subordinates have long heard of the name of Wolong, and it is really extraordinary and admirable."

Liu Qi was very cooperative:

"Mrs. Huang is right, if it weren't for the assistance of the military advisor, I'm afraid that the power of Jingzhou would have been controlled by Cai Mao and others."

Listening to the two of you, Xue Li and Gan Ning were a little speechless. But they all know that their own lord is not just as simple as being modest.

If you ignore it, you will pay a price.

The crowd greeted each other with wine.

It's like having fun, and the guests and hosts are happy.

That's when it happened.

The corners of Liu Qi's mouth curled slightly, and he said with a smile:

"Mrs. Huang doesn't know, in fact, my son came today because she has an important matter."

This made Huang Zu stunned.

Guarding Jiangxia himself, what can he have to do with Liu Qi?

Without waiting for him to ask, Liu Qi continued:

"Although Cai Mao and others have been eliminated now, the situation in Xiangyang is still uncertain, and it is precisely the need for Mrs. Huang to guard such a respected minister in order to stabilize the situation.

So my son came all the way to ask Mrs. Huang to return to Xiangyang. This matter is related to the safety of Xiangyang, but this son sincerely invites him, and asks Mrs. Huang not to refuse. ”

Huang Zu: "......"

Although he is old, he is not stupid.

No matter how nice Liu Qi says, if he goes to Xiangyang, won't he lose all his power?

Thinking of this, Huang Zupi smiled and didn't smile:

"The request of the prince is naturally obligated by his subordinates, but Jiangxia is an important place in Jingzhou, and the Jiangdong Navy often intrudes, if something goes wrong, I am afraid that Jingzhou is in danger.

Now except for his subordinates, I am afraid that no one can stabilize Jiang Xia. ”

This can almost be said to be a threat.

Today's Jiangxia is under the control of Huang Zu, and if he doesn't cooperate, it will be troublesome for Liu Qi.

But Liu Qi didn't seem to be worried, he continued to look at Huang Zu, and then said in a calm tone:

"It's reasonable for Mrs. Huang to be worried, but compared to Jiangxia, Xiangyang is naturally more important. And when my son came this time, he was ready to replace Mrs. Huang. ”

Listening to what Liu Qi said, Huang Zu suddenly had a toothache.

He can see that Liu Qi, this kid, is staring at Jiang Xia's position. At this moment, Xue Li and Gan Ning had already stood up, with a threatening posture.

Although he didn't do it, Huang Zu could feel that the two of them were both people with extraordinary strength, but they were ignored by him.

On top of this banquet, Huang Zu couldn't even struggle.

He squinted his eyes and looked at Liu Qi:

"The prince is really well prepared, these two are both heroes, I didn't expect that there would be such a person under the son."

Liu Qi said calmly:

"Haha, Mrs. Huang is polite, in fact, this Gan Ning Gan Xingba is a subordinate of Mrs. Huang, and now I can work for my son, thank Mrs. Huang for it!"

The corners of Huang Zu's mouth twitched.

The whole expression is a little distorted.

He finally remembered why this person looked a little familiar.

Who Gan Ning is, of course he has an impression.

It's just that he didn't care too much.

Unexpectedly, today, it has become an existence that coerces him.

Huang Zu took a deep breath:

"What the prince just said, there is no objection from his subordinates."

Hearing this, Liu Qi picked up the wine glass and said:

"Mrs. Huang really knows the general situation, and when she arrives in Xiangyang, my son will definitely entertain her well."

The current scene, Huang Zu didn't want to say more.

At least Liu Qi saved him enough face.

Didn't take him down directly.

Originally, in Huang Zu's opinion, there were only a few people around Liu Qi, so he dared to set up a banquet and wanted to be polite.

Unexpectedly, although Liu Qi brought few people, his strength was not bad.

Cut off his other thoughts.

Go to Xiangyang, go to Xiangyang, with Huang Zu's qualifications, Liu Qi is really not good at treating him.

It's just that I can't stay in Jiangxia to take power, but I have to go to Xiangyang to be manipulated, and my mood is not very good after all.

Liu Qi ignored it, clapped his hands and said:

"Come, Xingba, you are a junior, don't pour wine for Mrs. Huang, let him give you a guide or two."

After saying this, Huang Zu was even more speechless.
