316. Draw a ladder

When Zhuge Liang heard that Liu Qi was in his vain, he became curious. He didn't want to take it for himself, but just wanted to gain insight. As a result, he didn't expect that Liu Qi would be tricked, and the origin of this matter was still on Han Fei's head.

By the way, Liu Qi explained to his subordinates while Zhuge Liang was unprepared, and then his subordinates went back to prepare. When they arrived, it was already evening. Liu Qi was anxious and took Zhuge Liang to see the baby without any hesitation.

Zhuge Liang instinctively felt something was wrong, but then he thought that Liu Qi had a loyal face and was not as good as a treacherous person. He thought he would not harm him. Since he had come, he would just go and have a look. In this way, Liu Qi brought Zhuge Liang to a folk remedy.

As soon as he entered the door, Zhuge Liang frowned, building because it was a miscellaneous room. There was nothing else except for miscellaneous items. Zhuge Liang couldn't help but look dark and said, "Young Master, you are playing with me. Who would put the treasure here?"

Liu Qi blushed and said, "Sir, don't worry, the treasure is here but here is just above." He pointed and saw a ladder behind the door, in a mezzanine above the ladder passage.

Zhuge Liang suddenly realized when he saw this. No wonder he had such an operation. Liu Qi was inviting Zhuge Liang to go up to see the treasure while the iron was hot. Zhuge Liang nodded and followed Liu Qi to the mezzanine.

After coming up, I found that there was nothing inside. At this time, Zhuge Liang knew that he had been deceived. He was about to turn around and leave, but suddenly he saw Liu Qi kneeling on his knees and pulling his sleeves and saying, "Sir, my father is seriously ill at this moment, and my stepmother prevents me from meeting my father for the last time. I would like to ask me to teach me how to enter the mansion to meet my father!" At the end of his words, he felt sad and started crying loudly.

Zhuge Liang was so angry that he said, "I can't hide anymore!" But seeing Liu Qi feel pitiful, Zhuge Liang said, "The Cai family is powerful, and Xiangyang City is like a dragon's and tiger's den. The eldest son insists on going, may be in danger of his life! Another thing is the family affairs of the eldest son, and Liang really can't interfere!"

After Zhuge Liang said that, he turned around and wanted to leave, but he didn't know that the ladder had disappeared when he turned around. Zhuge Liang was also stunned. Could it be that he had to jump down? It was time for Liu Qi to kneel down and cried, "Sir, he is hanging in the air, not connecting to the sky, not connecting to the ground, out of your mouth, into my ears. There will definitely be no third person to know what happened today. Please help me!" After saying that, he bowed.

Zhuge Liang sighed and turned around and said, "Oh, okay! Liang has offered a plan for the eldest son! You get up and talk!" As he said that, Zhuge Liang helped Liu Qi up, and continued, "The eldest son is not completely helpless to see the governor of the state, but what is lacking is an opportunity. Now Jingzhou seems prosperous and is actually full of dangers. Cao Cao in the north and Sun Quan in the south have the ambition to annex Jingzhou. It's ridiculous that Cai Mao still wants to surrender to Cao Cao to take charge of Jingzhou. Didn't he hear that others would snore by the bed? If he surrenders Cao Cao, he will die and have no place to bury him. Well, don't talk about him for now. If the eldest son wants to see the governor of the state, there needs to be an emergency. Then you will return to Xiangyang in the name of reporting the message, and then Mrs. Cai will not dare to stop you from seeing the audience. As for the future, you have to act according to the opportunity."

Liu Qi hurriedly said, "What's the matter like this urgent matter? I hope the sir can say it clearly." Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly and said, "Young Master, please send someone to dress up as Cao's army to raid Xinye City!"

Liu Qi was overjoyed and thanked him quickly. He ordered someone to put the ladder back. Zhuge Liang did not leave the ladder and rode a horse to leave quickly. He did not return to Shuijing Villa, but came to a rice shop in Fancheng and stopped.

When he entered the store, a friend came over and said, "Do you want to buy rice?"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "It's just that you buy rice. Just give me two taels of rice to all the rice species here."

The guy moved his eyes and then smiled and said, "You should follow me in and board the store for a while!"

Zhuge Liang nodded and said, "Lead the way!" The guy didn't say anything but lifted the curtain and let Zhuge Liang go to the backyard. When he came to the backyard, the guy went straight to the wing room on the left, opened the door and let Zhuge Liang go in, and then he turned around and called the shopkeeper.

Yes, this shop is a stronghold established by Shadow of Liu Bei’s subordinates. When Han Fei left, he instructed Zhuge Liang to come here if he had something to do.

Zhuge Liang waited for a while, and a short and fat man entered the room. After the man came in, he smiled at Zhuge Liang and said, "Are you Zhuge Liang? The military advisor and the leader specifically ordered us to pay attention to your safety."

Zhuge Liang was moved in his heart when he heard this, but Han Fei treated him like a brother. So he nodded and said, "Is it the shopkeeper's surname?"

"My surname is Zhu, and everyone calls me Fatty Zhu! Come on, sit down and talk." Fatty Zhu enthusiastically asked Zhuge Liang to sit down first. After he sat down, Fatty Zhu said, "Is there anything important to come here in person?"

Zhuge Liang nodded and said, "Two things need to be transmitted back. The first thing is that Liu Biao is seriously ill and is afraid that his life will not last long. The second thing is that Liu Qi and Cai Mao may have a battle, and he is afraid that Cao Cao will send troops to intervene at that time. Let the military advisor and lord make plans early."

Fatty Zhu nodded and said, "We know the first thing we have, but the provincial governor's mansion is all the people of the Cai family. We cannot put people in, so we cannot grasp Liu Biao's life and death in time. Do you have a way?"

Zhuge Liang thought for a moment and said, "I might be able to try it. Liu Qi wants to go to Xiangyang to see his father. I should be able to wait for him to arrive at this time. When I go with him, I may see Liu Biao."

Fatty Zhu frowned and said, "Is Xiangyang too dangerous? You still need to take care of your safety."

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Liang is just an unknown man, no one cares about me." Fatty Zhu said cautiously when he heard this, "You should not be careless about this matter. If I let my son follow you in a while, you should just think that he is your book boy. If you have any problems, please let him help you."

Seeing that Fatty Zhu insisted, Zhuge Liang did not refuse, so he brought his son Zhu Quan with him. The two of them returned to Shuijing Villa together.
