"Guotai people are still weird!" Liu Qi hurriedly took the brocade box, with a happy face, "I have heard for a long time that Wu Guotai's pineapple crisp craftsmanship is unique, and I can finally taste it today." ”

Xu Shen was also a little envious, and said angrily: "Except for the heroes of Jiangdong, it is indeed difficult for others to have this blessing. Guotai cooked for the general regardless of his illness this time, which shows that he loves this son-in-law very much. ”

Liu Qi opened the brocade box and saw four pieces of very delicately made pineapple cakes, carved with the favorite lotus flowers of the Jiangnan people, and a fragrance came to his nose.

took out a piece and handed it to Xu Shen: "Mr. has traveled far and wide, and he has worked hard all the way, so he should share it with Mr." ”

"That's unacceptable!" Xu Shen hurriedly waved his hand and said: "This is made by Guotai himself for the general, how dare you ...... it in the future?"

Liu Qi couldn't help but stuff it into Xu Shen's hand, and said with a smile: "Since Guotai has already rewarded me, what's wrong with me borrowing flowers to offer Buddha to Mr. This is a delicacy that everyone in Jiangdong envies, and Mr. escorted me all the way, but I didn't taste a piece, which made me feel uneasy! ”

Xu Shen didn't expect Liu Qi to share the pineapple cake with him, and he had to excuse himself, but he had already stuffed it into his hand, and it was not easy to shirk it at this time, so he was so moved that his nose was sour, and he got up and gave a deep salute:

"I have heard for a long time that the general respects the virtuous and loves the soldiers, and is open-minded and benevolent, and when I see it today, it really deserves its name, which makes me flattered."

Liu Qi helped him into the seat, and said with a smile: "Not to mention that Mr. went to Jingzhou on behalf of Wu Hou, he is a famous Jiangdong and a model of scholars, and we should also be courteous." ”

Xu Shen was excited again, and his mind was in a daze, and when he finished eating the pineapple cake in his hand, he saw that Liu Qi had not yet moved, and couldn't help but be stunned: "General, you ...... Why don't you eat it? ”

Liu Qi said with a smile: "There are exactly three pieces left, and I will share them with the two ladies later, sir." ”

"Successful deeds, harmonious husband and wife, it can really be described as a family and everything is prosperous!"

Xu Shen wiped his mouth, his perception of Liu Qi changed greatly, thinking that Liu Qi respected him so much, and put his heart into his heart, if he still concealed it, it was really not a gentleman's doing.

After hesitating again and again, he finally couldn't help but explain the purpose and inventory of this trip, and Sun Quan instructed him to persuade Sun Shangxiang to go home to save his relatives, and he must take Liu Qi with him.

The mother-in-law is sick in bed, and the son-in-law should come to visit, this is a matter of course, why do you have to hide it from Liu Qi?

Liu Qi was silent when he heard this, nodded and said: "Guotai is seriously ill, and he is also very concerned about it, since Mr. Guotai still has a letter and gift to give to Mrs. Sun, you can discuss with Mrs. Sun first, and then make a decision." ”

Xu Shen thought so, and after the banquet, he was accompanied by Pang Hong to rest in the pavilion first, and then went to visit Sun Shangxiang and told the old lady to entrust him.

Liu Qi took the brocade box and went straight to Huaping Medical College, where there are now more than 500 disciples.

There are more than a dozen medicine rooms in the backyard, which are specially set up for the preparation of various secret recipes for medicinal materials, all of which are in the hands of Hua Tuo's own disciples, and there are several secret rooms among them, which only a few people know.

Liu Qi entered a pharmacy, turned the mechanism to open the medicine cabinet, and entered the secret room, where there was a cave, only to see Hua Tuo and his disciple Wu Pu checking a bottle of potion.

There were Xun Yu and Yu Fu sitting next to them, and no one could have imagined that these two people with high prestige in Cao Ying and Jiangdong were actually hiding in Xiangyang.

Xun Yu was rescued by Liu Qi by fraud, Yu turned to the mystery of detoxification and went to Nanyang, and it took two years to return to Jingzhou, and when the two met, they were also surprised.

Sun Ce attaches great importance to Yu Tuo, regards him as a confidant, and makes suggestions for pacifying Jiangdong, when Sun Ce was killed, Zhou Yu was far away in Baqiu, the people of Eastern Wu were unstable, and even the people of the clan had the intention of seizing power.

Not to mention Xun Yu's importance to Cao Cao, both of them are wise men who have seen people, and they never imagined that they would meet in this way, and even have to work together under Liu Qi?

After getting along for more than a month, Xun Yu was shocked by the hidden conspiracy in Jiangdong, although Sun Ce's death was expected by Guo Jia, who expected that the hidden story would be so complicated.

Seeing Liu Qi come in, the two of them got up and saluted, and did not make a noise to disturb Hua Tuo's master and apprentice, they were examining a poison that Yu had brought from the sea to see if there was any resemblance to the poison in Zhou Yu.

Liu Qi put the brocade box on the table and opened it gently, Yu Fan saw the pineapple cake, his eyes suddenly widened, his beard was open, and he couldn't help but shout: "The old pious woman is here to harm people again?" ”

Hua Tuo turned around when he heard this, saw Liu Qi coming, and also came to salute, and said: "After this half-month test, the thing that Mr. Yu is looking for is very similar to the poison in Zhou Gongjin, at least more than eighty percent. ”

Yu Fu held back his anger and said hurriedly: "Why is it only eighty percent? According to the fishermen and pirates, this poison will not be bad. ”

Hua Tuo's white eyebrows furrowed, and he said: "Zhou Lang has been poisoned for a long time, but he was in good health before, and then Chai Sang was poisoned, which is really incomprehensible. At this time, it is not only about a few lives, General Sun's lifetime merits, but also about the reputation and foundation of the Sun family. ”

Liu Qi said: "Since there are eighty percent, it shows that there is nothing wrong with the previous speculation, there is just a pineapple cake just sent from Jiangdong, and Mr. Lao will test it again, or he may have gains." ”

"Guotai even wants to harm the general?" Hua Tuo was so angry that his white beard trembled, grabbed the brocade box, and said angrily: "The old man has been fighting for three days and three nights without sleeping, and he must find out the reason." ”

"It's hard work!" Liu Qi nodded slightly, took Xun Yu and Yu to another secret room, and said: "Sun Quan was injured before the battle, Wu Guotai was sick in bed, and the mother and son asked me to visit Jiangdong, I must have coveted Jingzhou again, what do the two gentlemen think?" ”

"Capricious, treacherous and shameless!" Yu turned blue with anger, gritted his teeth and slammed the table, "The Sun family is a hero of the father and son, how could there be such an unscrupulous person?" ”

Liu Qi also sighed helplessly, Sun Quanchu was in charge of Jiangdong, and even Cao Cao was impressed, and the older he was, the more he went back.

When Guan Yu besieged Fancheng, Cao Cao was so frightened that he wanted to move the capital, and instead of taking the opportunity to attack Hefei to take Xuzhou, he stabbed Guan Yu in the back, making a lose-lose situation.

Now that he has encountered setbacks in Huainan and the idea of Jingzhou, the thoughts of King Wu of Great Wei are really hard to guess.

Xun Yu thought for a moment before he slowly spoke: "The general's expectations are not bad! Sun Quan was edicted to worship the general, which shows that he has negotiated peace with the Cao family, and turned to Jingzhou, he must think that the defeat of Huainan is due to the unfavorable land war, and he wants to save face with the water war, and take the general as a hostage to sit back and enjoy his success! ”

"Childish!" Yu turned a cold sneer, and laughed angrily, "Blue-eyed people regard the heroes of the world as fish and shrimp, and throw themselves into the net? ”

Sun Quan is also a hero of the Three Kingdoms, how can he be so naïve?

Do you really think that by controlling himself, he will be able to get these current territories?

With his current prestige and combat record, don't say that Guan Zhang is not convinced, even Gan Ning is afraid that he will not accept it!

"Do you think you should go, sir?" Liu Qi looked at Xun Yu and weighed it in his heart.

It's a question of whether it's a big game or a big one.
