Liu Qi, wearing a blue robe, stood in the yard, looking a little anxious. Liu Xiu's appointment as magistrate of you County means that Liu Cong's whole energy will definitely be focused on him and directed at him everywhere.

Since Liu Xiu defeated sun Ren, Liu Qi's life is very comfortable.

The reason is that Liu Cong gave up dealing with Liu Qi and aimed at Liu Xiu everywhere.

A few months of comfortable life, let Liu Qi relaxed.

All of a sudden, Liu Xiu is about to leave Xiangyang. Liu Qi is full of fear about his future. Because of this, Liu Qi came to Liu Xiu late at night, hoping for help.

"Creak!"

The door opened and Liu Xiu came out.

When Liu Qi saw Liu Xiu, he showed a smile on his anxious face and said, "third brother!"

Liu Xiu waved his hand and said, "brother, you're very polite. Sit down!"

Moonlight fell on the yard, and the two brothers sat around the stone table.

Liu Xiu was not in a hurry either. He poured a cup of tea for Liu Qi and said with a smile, "it's hot. Brother, drink a cup of tea first, and let your heart go through."

"Thank you, brother."

Liu Qi took the cup, sipped the tea, then put down the cup, eyes fell on Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu said: "big brother came late at night, is there something wrong?"

The look on Liu Qi's face became a little unnatural, but her eyes were impatient. She solemnly said, "brother, this time, I asked my third brother for help?"

Liu Xiu changed his mind and understood.

As soon as he left, Liu Qi's situation was naturally very dangerous.

Obviously, Liu Qi came to ask for help.

Liu Xiu said with a smile, "elder brother, I will try my best to help him as long as it is within my power."

Liu Qi said: "the third younger brother is about to leave Xiangyang, and the elder brother will stay in Xiangyang alone, which is hard to deal with. Therefore, the elder brother wants to ask the third brother, "what should the elder brother do?"

Obviously, without Liu Xiu's shield, Liu Qi is nervous.

Liu Xiu stopped for a moment and said, "in fact, there's no need to worry about the second brother. The first brother is the eldest son. As long as the first brother doesn't make mistakes, no matter how much the second brother is favored, it can't affect the second brother. Besides, as the eldest son, most officials in Jingzhou will be on your side. Why should you be afraid? "

In fact, Liu Qi has too many natural advantages.

There are too many advantages for the eldest son.

It's a pity that Liu Qi can't use it, and is even frightened by Liu Cong.

Liu Qi shook his head and said, "no, I can't, because of the constant slander of CAI Junshi, Zhang Yun and his mother. My father's impression of me is very bad. Now, my father almost doesn't care about me, and even I don't have much time to see him. After you leave Xiangyang, I will be targeted by them again. "

At this point, Liu Qi solemnly said: "third brother, if you are willing to stay and help me, instead of going to you county. As long as my father returns to Jingzhou one hundred years later, I will share Jingzhou with you. "

"Brother, please be careful," Liu said

Liu Qi said: "third brother, everything I say is true, as long as you are willing."

Liu Xiu's ears listened to these words, and at the same time he came out.

Although Liu Qi is weak, he is not stupid.

Liu Xiu is not stupid. If he believes that, he is really stupid.

Liu xiudao: "brother, to tell you the truth, I don't want to fight for Jingzhou inheritance. I just want to live my life well. If you open Youxian, you can further attack Yuzhang county. If you go back, you can run Youxian without looking at other people's faces. This is my day. Please forgive me. I won't stay in Xiangyang. "

Liu Qi's eyes were anxious. He stood up, knelt down with a plop and said, "third brother, please help me."

At this time, Liu Qi felt that he was in the dark and had no way out. Liu Xiu refused to stay. He was alone in Xiangyang and could not resist Cai Mao and others.

Liu Xiu helped Liu Qi up and said, "brother, why are you doing this? I have said that you have so many advantages that you don't have to be afraid of Liu Cong. "

Liu Qi shook his head and said, "no, you don't understand."

Liu Xiu heard that Liu Qi was completely afraid and did not dare to fight Liu Cong at all.

Liu Qi's eyes turned and said, "my third brother doesn't want Liu Xiu to go to Xiangyang. It's better for me to discuss with my father. I'll go to you county with my third brother."

In a word, Liu Xiu's face changed.

Liu Qi also went to you County, the situation is different, will become Liu Qi primarily, Liu Xiu as a supplement.

Everything will evolve into Liu Xiu assisting Liu Qi.

Officials below will also have such an idea. This is not the situation Liu Xiu would like to see.

Liu Xiu said decisively: "it's definitely impossible for big brother to go to you county. It's impossible for my father to agree. "

Liu Qi grabbed Liu Xiu's hand and said, "third brother, you are so smart that you can think of solutions. You can help me think of solutions. What should I do?"

Liu Qi's voice has been choked.In the face of Liu Cong's fear, Liu Qi can hardly sleep at night.

Liu Xiu sighed and said, "if elder brother is not willing to face the present situation, there is a way."

"What can I do?"

Liu Qi was overjoyed and looked forward to it in her eyes.

Liu Xiu said: "big brother, like me, can choose to be an official."

After hearing this, Liu Qi thought about it carefully and said, "do I also go out to be a magistrate?"

Liu xiudao: "elder brother, although I am the magistrate of you County, in name, I still have a false position as the prefect of Yuzhang county. Elder brother, as his father's eldest son, is an official, but he only serves as a county magistrate, which makes people feel that your father abandons you. So, you have to be a prefect at least to have enough weight. "

Liu Qi heard the speech, thought it over carefully, and then said to himself, "in Changsha County, Lingling County, Jiangxia County, Nanjun county and other places, there are candidates for the prefect of each county. If I directly act as the prefect of a county, it will certainly cause unrest, and the people below will not obey me. Moreover, it will be very difficult for my father to transfer a prefect. "

Liu Xiu said: "in fact, there is a very suitable place, which is also very beneficial to big brother."

Liu Qi unclosed and held Liu Xiu's hand, clenched his fist, and waved excitedly in the air. He said: "I knew that the third brother must have an idea. Let's just say it. Don't play tricks."

Liu Xiu said: "the prefect of Nanyang County has always been vacant. Elder brother can ask his father to let you go to Nanyang County to work

"Ah

Liu Qi exclaimed with fright.

He quickly shook his head and said, "third brother, don't harm me! Half of the territory of Nanyang County is in the hands of Cao thief. I went to Nanyang County. Didn't I just leave the wolf's nest and enter the tiger's mouth? No, it can't be. "

Liu Xiu shakes his head in his heart. Liu Qi is generous and benevolent, but he is too timid.

I don't have the guts.

If Liu Qi were in charge of Jingzhou, he would not be as good as Liu Biao.

Liu Xiu said with relief: "brother, although Nanyang County is dangerous everywhere, there is no one in charge of Nanyang County. This is your chance. What's more, Nanyang County has imperial uncle Liu Bei's garrison for defense. Liu Bei has rich experience in fighting, and has Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and other powerful generals under his command. With them, he will certainly be able to resist Cao Cao. "

After a pause, Liu Xiu said: "after the elder brother has gone, he can rely more on Liu Bei. With the help of Liu Bei, he can form his own team and foundation to compete with the second elder brother. This is also the only chance for the elder brother to inherit Jingzhou. How to choose depends on you, brother. "

After listening to this, Liu Qi was in front of him.

Up to now, Liu Qi has no team to compete with Liu Cong.

With Liu Bei's support, the situation is different.

Liu Qi nodded and said, "the third brother's analysis makes a lot of sense. That's it." With these words, Liu Qi stood up and said, "third brother, I don't want to thank you for your kindness. If you need any help in the future, please tell me. I won't refuse."

"It's late at night. My third brother has a rest early. It's time for me to go back."

"I wish you a good trip to Youxian."

Liu Qi bowed his hands and left the yard.

Liu Xiu looks at Liu Qi's back and sighs in his heart. Liu Qi is a good person, but his character is too soft. After he went to Xinye, Liu Bei had to rely on Liu Qi, and Liu Qi also had to rely on Liu Bei. The two sides were complementary, but it was not clear who was in charge.
