After Liu Bei finished speaking, he cupped his hands towards Liu Qi with a smile on his face and an attitude that could be called affectionate.
"Hold the grass."
Liu Qi really wants to ask the big-eared thief if you still have the genealogy of King Jing of Zhongshan. Of course, he cannot say this out loud, but he is secretly wary in his heart. The big-eared thief Liu Bei is a big liar.
Although the seventeenth-generation great-great-grandson of Prince Jing of Zhongshan does not have the orthodox bloodline of his own, he is of high seniority.
"Don't dare, don't dare, Boyu has seen Uncle Liu Huang."
A smile flashed across Liu Bei's eyes as soon as he said these words. This sentence, Uncle Liu Huang, is more important than anything else. What he wants is this effect.
Since the uprising of the Yellow Turban Army, Liu Bei first formed a sworn alliance with Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Taoyuan, and formed a team. Although they made many military exploits, they were not successful.
He was looked down upon all the way, and his soldiers and horses were almost beaten.
This time I was planning to ask Liu Biao for a place to stay. After all, they were all clan members of the Han Dynasty. But when I came, I heard the news that Liu Biao, the leader of the Mu Palace in Jizhou, had passed away.
What Cai Mao said just now was too harsh. Liu Bei had also been suspected of the origins of his clan members in the Han Dynasty.
Although the other party was a general, so what, so he made the accusation later.
"you?"
Cai Mao angrily wanted to point his finger at the two of them, but suddenly pulled it back. This was extremely disrespectful.
"Haha, I am the general who was confused. It turns out he is really the eldest son."
Cai Mao is not stupid. If he dares to question Liu Qi's identity at this time, he may really not be able to get off the stage.
"Second brother, give up your position."
Liu Qi went straight into the mourning hall, and the one kneeling at the front was naturally Liu Cong, the current head of Jizhou Mu Palace.
Liu Cong was a little nervous looking at the eldest brother in front of him. After all, he had taken the position of the palace master and he was also a brother.
"Don't worry, I don't care about the position of the head of the Jizhou Mu Palace. It's just that it's not easy for my father to work hard to run such a large family business. Second brother, if you are desperate in the future, you can come to my brother and me."
Liu Qi seemed to be talking casually, but it made Cai Hao and others next to him angry.
With so many soldiers, what do you mean they will be cornered in the future? They obviously don't take him and others seriously.
Even Liu Cong had a hint of sullenness on his face. The words of his newly appointed eldest brother were too unpleasant to hear.
"Brother, I will make the Jizhou Mufu even stronger than before. This is the seal of your independence. If you have any difficulties in the future, you can still come to me."
As the saying goes, it is easy to enjoy the shade under a big tree. How many people wanted to come to join the Jizhou Mufu, but the eldest son Liu Qi wanted to leave. This made Cai Mao unable to figure out the reason.
His military advisor Xu Ji was even more confused. Now that the world was in chaos, he couldn't figure out what it meant.
Therefore, there was no intention to make it difficult for Liu Qi to leave the Jizhou Mufu.
When he came to see you in trouble, Liu Qi did not refute, but he sighed secretly in his heart.
The leader is weak and the minister is strong. Although Cai Mao is the biological uncle of the second brother, Mao has no use for it. According to the subsequent trend of the Three Kingdoms, these generals were either recruited by Cao Cao or returned to Liu Bei, and some went to Soochow.
The behemoth of the Jizhou Mufu collapsed in an instant, and even the second brother Liu Cong and Aunt Cai were eventually killed by Cao Cao's men.
Although Liu Qi doesn't want to see the Liu family end up like this in the future, there is currently no good solution.
We can only hope that there will be some changes in the direction of history. Our own strength is too weak and we are currently unable to change anything.
"Pang Degong is here..."
"Mr. Shui Jing is here..."
As the famous gentry, hermits, and scholars from Jizhou came to express their condolences, the Mufu in Jizhou became lively. Naturally, Liu Qi had no intention of talking to his second brother Liu Cong.
Pang Degong was a well-known scholar from a wealthy family. His father had invited him to serve as an official many times, but unfortunately he was rejected. This shows that he was indifferent to fame and wealth.
Mr. Shui Jing is even more famous for his knowledge. His name is Sima Hui. He is proficient in Taoism, art of war, Confucian classics... and has countless disciples.
Unexpectedly, these two people would come, and Liu Qi couldn't help but his eyes lit up.
The ones who are interested are naturally not these two, but Pang Tong, the nephew of Pang Degong, and Zhuge Liang, a disciple of Mr. Shui Jing.
The saying that a young man with a crouching dragon and a phoenix can conquer the world is not just a lie.
What my Fancheng is currently lacking is talent. Although Guo Jia has great talents, he is only one person after all and cannot be exhausted to death.
So when Liu Qi heard the names of these two hermit scholars, he immediately turned his attention to Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang.
If Liu Bei, the big-eared thief, had not conquered Shu thanks to Zhuge Liang, and if Feng Chu had not been shot to death by a stray arrow, Cao Cao would not necessarily have been the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms.
Who gave us a golden finger? There is no need to wait any longer.
"Bo Yu has met Pang Gong, Mr. Shui Jing."
Mr. Pang Degong and Mr. Shui Jing were also stunned by Liu Qi's enthusiasm.
The eldest son of Jizhou Mufu is so famous that of course he is full of negative opinions.
What a waste of food and drink, eating, drinking and having fun, being uneducated and timid...
When I saw him today, I felt that he was a bit different from the legend. He was polite, dignified, and had the aura of a superior person.
You must know that Mr. Pang Degong and Mr. Shui Jing are also famous men of the generation, with a keen eye for recognizing people, but now they feel that they can't see clearly the eldest son Liu Qi opposite them.
"I've met the eldest son."
Mr. Pang Degong and Mr. Shui Jing didn't have any airs, but they didn't look enthusiastic either. They returned the greeting and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute, everyone. I heard that Mr. Shui Jing has a disciple named Zhuge Liang. Boyu admires him very much. Mr. Shui Jing didn't bring him with him this time?"
Seeing that these two people were about to turn around and leave, Liu Qi became anxious.
Mr. Shui Jing was stunned when he suddenly heard that his disciple Zhuge Liang was mentioned.
It makes me very happy to know that this apprentice is extremely smart, studies hard, and is involved in Confucian classics, military art, metaphysics, etc. It can be said that he is very talented.
It's just that this disciple is only fifteen years old, and he still admires him very much. Looking at Liu Qi's fiery eyes, even Mr. Shui Jing couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
"The eldest son is laughing at me. My disciple Kong Ming is stupid by nature, and his studies are even sparse. He didn't bring them with him..."
At this time, a young man in simple clothes not far away could not help but keep twitching on his face.
What happened to the usually meticulous gentleman? He even praised himself for coming this morning, and this time he brought it out to gain some insights.
The young man in simple clothes was Zhuge Liang, whose nickname was Kong Ming. He felt quite beautiful when he heard someone admire him. He was the eldest son of Jizhou Prefecture, although his reputation was not very good.
"What the hell."
Liu Qi was even more confused. It seemed that Mr. Shui Jing was allergic to him.
"What about Xu Shu and Xu Yuanzhi?"
"Yuanzhi's mother was seriously ill and passed away long ago..."
"What about Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan?"
"I wonder where you went?"
Shui Jing said calmly at first while stepping back.
