Chapter 9 The Wise Man of Kuai

In the view of Huang and his son, Liu Qi was of the same clan as Liu Biao and was a state official. The fact that he came to Jingzhou alone showed that he was highly valued by Liu Biao.

When interacting with such people, Huang Zhong naturally refuses no one.

After the discussion was settled, Liu Qi and Liu Pan prepared food and drinks and went to Huang Zhong's home.

The ancients had many friendships and reputations, especially warriors like Huang and his son. They were ashamed of being greedy for life and fearing death, and were proud of loyalty and justice.

And the best way to establish a relationship with such forthright people as Huang Zhong and his son is to gorge on food and have a pleasant hangover.

There is no emotion in the world that cannot be conveyed over a meal. If there is, then two meals.



The day after Liu Qi made friends with the Huang family, Kuai Yue, one of the two heroes of the Kuai family, secretly lurked in Linju County.

Kuai Yue was thoughtful and did not rush to see Liu Qi. Instead, he first sent someone to the county government office to inquire about Liu Qi's movements.

It would be difficult for others to inquire about some information in the county government, but with the power of the Kuai family, there will definitely be people who are close to them in Linju County.

Not long after, Kuai Yue's men brought the news back to him. After Liu Qi came to Ju County, he simply inquired about the political affairs of the county, and then went to the school field with a Sima from another department named Huang.

He had a great conversation with the other party, and even followed the Sima to his house, not knowing what was going on.

Even though Kuai Yue was very wise and scheming, he was still a little confused at the moment.

"Sima of the other divisions? How capable can a Sima of the other divisions in a county be? So what is the significance of making friends with him?"

Kuai Yue's cronies said to him: "Kuai Gong, that Yushi is only seventeen or eighteen years old. He is a weakling. How much knowledge can he have? He thought that he couldn't recruit any capable people, so he went to the local small counties to find a few Sima and the army.

Hou Zhiliu rushed to the front door, these people really don't need to bother Kuai Gong to go this way."

Kuai Yue was not in a hurry to make a judgment. He just closed his eyes and remained motionless, carefully considering Liu Qi's intentions.

After a while, Kuai Yue showed a surprised expression.

"So that's the case. It's hard to blame him for being so careful! It seems that the five tribes were deceived by him alone. What a blessing."

The confidant did not expect that Kuai Yue would make such a comment.

Kuai Yuehun didn't care and asked the confidant: "Where does Liu Yushi live now?"

"Living in a post house."

Kuai Yue nodded and said, "Over there in Yicheng County, who brought him here?"

"He is from Tingpu in Yi County, but he stayed in Linju for two days and then went back."

Kuai Yue nodded thoughtfully and said with emotion: "It seems that except for me, no one in the Xiangyang clan has doubts about this governor, and the same goes for the county prince Li Zheng... he sent me to the post house for me.

My name is Ci, and Kuai is going to pay a visit to the governor tonight."

"Kuai Gong, it's getting dark now..."

"I want to go there by night."

"only!"



At midnight, all the lights in the posthouses in Linju County were out, except for the one where Liu Qi lived.

"The Kuai clan of Zhonglu...Bo Yu, although this Kuai Yue is not the head of the family, he is still a very famous figure. He was also Dong Cao's servant in General He's house back then, which is unusual." Liu Pan saw Kuai Yue sending someone to him.

I was surprised and worried at the same time.

What surprised him was that Liu Qi said that Kuai and Cai would send people to find him, and it turned out to be true.

What I was worried about was that when the other party sent someone like Kuai Yue, both of us were younger than the other party and might show cowardice.

Liu Qi was sitting on the bed, turning a self-made wooden Rubik's Cube in his hand, playing with it back and forth.

The Rubik's Cube was made by Liu Qi a few years ago by a skilled craftsman from Shanyang County. Although the six sides were not painted, six animals were carved to distinguish them.

Liu Qi named it Six Animal Boxes.

Whenever he felt under great pressure, Liu Qi would turn the six animal boxes to relieve his restless mood.

"Bo Yu, can you hear what I said to you?" Seeing that he didn't answer, Liu Pan stepped forward and snatched the box from his hand, saying: "Do you know that playing with things makes you lose your mind? Once this thing is made, you have nothing to do.

Just hold it in your hand when nothing happens? What does that mean?"

Liu Qi was not angry when he saw Liu Pan snatching his six animal boxes. He smiled and said, "When you are nervous, you can relax after a while."

Liu Pan didn't care whether he wanted to relax or not, and said: "Kuai Yue will be here soon, how should you and I deal with him?"

"When soldiers come and cover up the water and the earth, what's there to do? Let's just negotiate terms with each other."

Liu Pan looked at Liu Qi and said anxiously: "How can you be so stable? That person named Kuai came to your door. He must have known that you lied about your uncle coming to Jingzhou to play with the clans. What do you think about this?"

explain?"

Liu Qi shook his head and said: "He has no evidence, how can he say that I am playing tricks on him?"

After a pause, Liu Qi continued: "Besides, I am the governor of the province, and I have been ordered by the governor to come to Jingzhou for an unannounced visit. So what if I tease them? If they don't have evil intentions, how can they be teased by me?"

Liu Pan looked at Liu Qi dumbfounded.

He felt that every time he talked to Liu Qi about business, Liu Qi could tell some fallacies, but when he thought about it carefully, his fallacies were not sophistry, and he could not refute them at all.

Liu Qi comforted Liu Pan and said: "Brother, I am actually nervous too, but the more we are at this moment, the more we must not show our timidity. We must be as steady as a mountain, and we must not let the other party see our flaws and underestimate us."

At this moment, someone knocked on the door gently.

Liu Qi winked at Liu Pan, who took a deep breath and went to open the door.

Outside the door was a man wearing a bamboo hat and a mantle, who was led into the house by the servants of the post.

After the servant went out, the man in black took off his hat, revealing a rather capable face.

"Liu Yushi?" the visitor asked tentatively.

"Mr. Kuai?" Liu Qi asked back.

Immediately afterwards, I saw two people laughing.

Liu Qi extended his hand and asked Kuai Yue to come to the front of the long case. The two of them knelt down in front of the table and looked at each other.

Not long after, I heard Kuai Yue say: "I didn't expect that at Liu Jun's age, he would be an official for the governor. He is indeed a young hero... Alas, compared with the governor, we are all very old."

Liu Qi said humbly: "Mr. Yidu is a talented and intelligent man from Jingchu. Even though he was General He, he had the highest regard for him back then. Qi is only a subordinate officer under the governor, how can he dare to be called a hero in front of him? He is ashamed and unworthy."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Kuai Yue stroked his beard and said: "Really? Not necessarily, Liu Yushi randomly wrote an itinerary for the governor, which exposed the details of the five tribes in Nanjun.

This kind of mind is enough to be called a 'hero'."

Liu Pan, who was next to Liu Qi, turned pale when he heard Kuai Yue tell him this, and the sweat on his forehead slowly dripped down.

But Liu Qi said calmly: "Written? How can I say this? Liu Shijun really wanted to come to Jingzhou last time, but he just changed his route temporarily. Why did he write a speech?"

Kuai Yue did not expect that Liu Qi would not admit it, so he laughed and said: "History is so secretive, I fear he will lose his gentlemanly bearing."

"Really? Then I would like to ask, sir, even if I made up this matter, what shady secrets can the five tribes of Nanjun have that can be exposed to the world?"

Kuai Yue laughed loudly when he heard this, but did not answer.

He couldn't answer either.

The Bei, Zhang, and Su families sent people pretending to be thieves to ambush Liu Biao. Even though Kuai was not involved in such a major event, it is not easy to comment on it.

"I heard that Liu Yushi came to Ju and saw no one else, but only saw a Sima from another department. Is there any profound meaning in this?"

Liu Qi did not answer but asked: "What do you think I mean, sir?"

Kuai Yue stroked his beard and said: "The wind is rustling and the water is cold."

When Liu Qi heard this, he couldn't help but laugh happily.

Kuai Yue was indeed a smart man, and he immediately understood what he wanted to do.

"What are you laughing at?" Kuai Yue asked curiously.

Liu Qi smiled and said with emotion: "I laugh at Mr. Yidu's coming here. It's really God who has helped me achieve great things!"

"Oh?" Kuai Yue suddenly became interested: "How does Shi Shi judge that this person is here to help you?"

Liu Qi did not answer him, but looked out the window at the darkness and muttered to himself:
