Chapter 242 Zhuge Demon
Seeing that his husband agreed, Huang Yueying clapped her hands happily, and she looked like a happy little girl.
Ailang thought for a while and said, "The ordnance field outside the city makes various weapons, and the workshop of the governor's mansion makes various civilian objects. If you are interested, you can go and have a look." Huang Yueying nodded vigorously with a look of surprise.
Speaking of which, since Liu Bei got Zhuge Liang, he discussed with him day and night, and almost reached the point where he could not think about tea or food.
At noon that day, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang had dinner together. At this moment, Mi Zhu rushed in and reported: "Lord, Mr. Liu Qi suddenly came to see him!" Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang, "I have nothing to do with Liu Qi, but why did he suddenly come to see me?"
Zhuge Liang picked up the feather fan and smiled and said, "Now the annual harvest celebration in Jingzhou is coming. In previous years, Liu Biao was personally hosted. I heard that Liu Biao was in very poor health recently, so I am afraid that this celebration will not be able to be held. Liu Qi must have been ordered to invite his lord to Xiangyang to host the celebration instead of Liu Biao. At the same time, he also wants to take this opportunity to seek his lord's help."
"Oh? What can I do to help Liu Qi?"
Zhuge Liang smiled slightly, "Liu Biao is in poor health, so the problem of his successor is raised. The Cai family must be watching this matter now and ask Liu Cong to inherit the family business. In this way, Liu Qi, the eldest son, became a thorn in their eyes. I guess the Cai family has been framed by Liu Qi frequently recently, which made Liu Qi feel dangerous, so he took this opportunity to ask his lord for help!"
Liu Bei suddenly realized and asked, "Kong Ming, what should I do?"
"Lord, the first step I told you about the strategy is to take Jingzhou as your foothold. Now that the opportunity has come, how can you miss it?"
Liu Bei looked quite hesitant, "Oh! I'm sorry, Brother Jingsheng for doing this!"
"My lord, you must not have the kindness of a woman! Isn't it easy to fight for the world? Ability is important, but what is more important is the timing! Throughout history, many heroes and heroes have died of regret and ended up in a desperate situation. It's because there is no chance! Opportunities are rare and fleeting. If the lord doesn't seize the opportunity, he will only regret it for the rest of his life in the future!"
Liu Bei couldn't help but nodded, "Kong Ming's words are really a wake-up call! Just follow Kong Ming's words!" Zhuge Liang reminded: "My lord, I will see Liu Qi later. If he talks about the battle with the Cai family, he just needs to refuse." Liu Bei nodded and said to Mi Zhu: "Please ask the eldest son!" Mi Zhu clasped his fists and agreed and walked out quickly. After a while, Mi Zhu led a young man with a thin and handsome face in a brocade robe.
As soon as the man saw Liu Bei, he immediately bowed and said, "Nephew Liu Qi, please pay homage to uncle!"
Liu Bei quickly helped Liu Qi up and said with a smile: "You don't have to be so polite to nephew!" Then he sighed: "I am in Jingzhou and I rarely meet! My nephew has arrived recently, and I am very happy. I will stay and never return without getting drunk!" Liu Qi showed joy on his face, and then he clasped his fists and said, "Uncle is kind, but my nephew is disrespectful!" Liu Bei asked Liu Qi to sit down, and both sides sat down, and Zhuge Liang and Mi Zhu sat opposite Liu Qi to accompany him.
Liu Bei pointed at Zhuge Liang and introduced to Liu Qi: "This is Mr. Zhuge."
Liu Qi immediately clasped his fists at Zhuge Liang and said, "I have heard of Mr. Wolong's name for a long time, so I'm lucky to meet you!" Zhuge Liang smiled and replied, "The eldest son is too rewarding!"
Liu Qi said to Liu Bei: "Uncle, my nephew is here to celebrate the harvest celebration in half a month. Because my father is in poor health and cannot host the celebration, he specially ordered his nephew to come and ask his uncle to host the harvest celebration on behalf of my father!" Liu Bei smiled, "I'm afraid it's not appropriate?" Liu Qi said seriously: "Uncle is a hero of the age, and he is a relative of the Han Dynasty like my father. Now, who can preside over the ceremony on behalf of my father? Please don't refuse!" Liu Bei nodded, "Okay. Since this is what Brother Jingsheng means, I'd better obey your orders." Liu Qi said happily: "In this way, there is no problem with this major event!"
He paused, looked sad, and said with a fist, "It's not to be hiding it. My nephew came to Xinye this time, one was to invite my uncle in the name of my father, and the other was to hope that my uncle would save me!" Seeing that Liu Qi had indeed said this, Liu Bei couldn't help but look at Zhuge Liang, and admired him very much. Then he smiled and said to Liu Qi: "You are so strange! How could you come to ask me for help as your nephew?"
Liu Qi smiled bitterly, "The child left by my father's former wife is now a thorn in the flesh of some people. I want to get rid of it quickly!" He looked at Liu Bei and clasped his fists and said, "My uncle doesn't know. My father is in poor health now. The Cai family is preparing to inherit the family business with my younger brother Liu Cong! For this reason, they kept slandering the father in front of his father, and heard that his father had decided to make Liu Cong the prince! In fact, whoever inherits his father's family business does not care. As long as they are descendants of the Liu family, it will be the same for anyone to inherit it!"
Liu Bei nodded and exclaimed: "It is really a blessing for Brother Jingsheng to have such a bright mind!"
Liu Qi smiled bitterly, clasped his fists and said, "Uncle has been too rewarded!" Then he frowned and said, "Although my nephew doesn't care who inherits the family business, Cai won't let me go. In their eyes, I always threaten. I am only worried that I will die at the hands of the Cai family in no time after I go back. My nephew really has no choice but to come and ask my uncle to save me."
Liu Bei looked puzzled, "This is Brother Jingsheng's family matter. How can Liu Bei, an outsider, interfere?" As he said that, he looked at Zhuge Liang.
Liu Qi sighed, "Oh! It's my nephew's forced trouble!"
Zhuge Liang suddenly said, "Actually, there is a way to help the eldest son. However, the eldest son is unwilling to compete with his younger brother for family business, so I can't say this."
Liu Qi was like a drowning man at this moment. When he heard Zhuge Liang's words, he seemed to grab a life-saving straw. He hurriedly got up and turned the table, came to Zhuge Liang and bowed to Zhuge Liang: "If Mr. Wolong can save me, Liu Qi will be grateful to Mr. for his great kindness in this life!"
Zhuge Liang quickly got up and helped Liu Qi up, "Young Master is so absurd to me!" He paused, "To be honest, with the old master's current situation, it is impossible to escape this disaster! There is only one way to make the old master survive in a desperate situation!" Liu Qi hurriedly said, "Please give me advice!"
Zhuge Liang smiled slightly and said, "In fact, it's simple. As long as the eldest son can inherit the family business, all crises will be solved."
Liu Qi was stunned and said in disbelief: "I'll inherit it? How is this possible?"
"No! It's very likely! The eldest son is generous and frugal, and has a good reputation among the people in the army, but the Cai family is not the case. They are profit-loving and unlawful, and they are notorious. If the eldest son and the Cai family compare, the military and civilians in Jingzhou are naturally willing to let the eldest son be their lord! In addition, the eldest son has friendship with many generals in the army. As long as they can get rid of Cai Mao and Zhang Yun in one fell swoop, great things can be accomplished!"
Liu Qi was shocked and shouted: "Sir, sir, are you calling me to rebel!"
Zhuge Liang smiled slightly and asked back, "Isn't Cai's actions now a rebellion?" Liu Qi was stunned. Zhuge Liang continued, "The eldest son is not a rebellion, it is just a correction. And I am not asking the eldest son to take action now. This matter must be done a hundred years later. At that time, the eldest son did everything to protect the foundation of the Liu family from falling into the hands of the Cai family. In this way, the eldest son did not have to make any difficulties." Liu Qi frowned and looked a little hesitant.
Zhuge Liang struck the railway while the hot: "Now the eldest son is the biggest obstacle in the Cai family's eyes, so he naturally wants to get rid of it and get it faster. Once the Cai family takes Jingzhou, the eldest son will be even more damn disaster!"
Liu Qi was shocked and asked hurriedly: "What's the reason?"
Zhuge Liang smiled slightly, "I have already said it just now. The eldest son is quite prestigious in the civil army of Jingzhou, and the eldest son, as the eldest son of the governor, should inherit the family business. Therefore, even if the Cai family seized Jingzhou, they would still be suspicious of the eldest son, and only by eliminating it can they be at ease. At that time, Jingzhou had fallen into the hands of the Cai family, but how could the eldest son fight against it? At that time, the situation was really that people were the ones who were the ones who were the ones who were the ones who were the ones who were the ones who were the ones who were the ones who were the ones who were the ones who were the ones who were going to slaughter the eldest son, and the eldest son had no choice but to kill him!" Liu Qi's face was pale, his hands were trembling, and he couldn't speak.
Zhuge Liang clasped his fists and said, "Young Master, one thought is heaven, one thought is hell, and this matter is related to the continuation of the family business of the governor! You must think twice! If the family business that the governor has worked hard to finally fall into the hands of the Cai family due to a difference in thought, how should the eldest master face the governor underground in the future?" Liu Qi was shocked, and he paused, and immediately bowed to Zhuge Liang: "Sir, shouting at the wake of the person in his dream! He is pedantic!"
Zhuge Liang quickly helped Liu Qi up and asked with a smile: "Young Master has decided!" Liu Qi frowned and nodded, saying: "Although I don't want to compete with Liu Cong for the throne, my life is important, and it is related to the survival of my Liu family business. I have to be sorry to Liu Cong!"
Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "If the eldest son thinks like this, it is a blessing for the governor and all the soldiers and civilians of Jingzhou!" Then he asked, "Young son, please sit down, let's sit down." Liu Qi returned to his seat and sat down. Zhuge Liang also returned to his seat and sat down.
Liu Qi couldn't help but clasp his fists and asked, "Dare you ask me, how should I do it?"
