Two days later, the famous scholars of modern science, led by Gaochang, Wang Xi, and others, came to Jiangling reluctantly after the conversation between Liu Cong and Liu Xiu and the forced instructions of Liu Biao, and wanted to take Liu Qi back to Xiangyang for office.

The famous scholars of the Han Dynasty were all above the top, and it was even more uncomfortable to ask Liu Qi for such a condescending and noble person to come to Liu Qi than to kill them.

But the so-called "more uncomfortable than killing" is at most just an adjective.

They are reluctant to die.

These people appear to be noble and well-educated, but their innate inferiority is also much more unbearable than normal people.

Including greed for money, fear of death, seeking fame, vanity, desire to invade more social resources, etc.

After Gaochang and sent Dong You, Xu Su, Wang Xi, Ma Xiang and others to Jingzhou, they went to the temporary residence where Liu Qi lived to meet him.

Before several people arrived at the mansion where Liu Qi was, there were guards guarding the door, and there were a large number of people.

Gao Chang first stepped to the mansion, handed the famous sect to a leading guard, and then explained: "Gao, on the order of Liu Jingzhou, came to see the envoy Liu. If you have any important matters, please report them quickly."

The guard checked Gao Chang and others' names, asked everyone's names, and then moved into the mansion to report to Liu Qi.

When he was young, he saw the guard stepping out and said to Gaochang: "Duke Gao, Envoy Liu went to the academy yesterday to handle political affairs. He was quite tired and was taking a nap. Please wait for the envoy to wake up. I should report it again."

When Wang Xi heard this, he frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "You are so unknown. Do you know who we are? You actually let us wait here? Even if we first arrived in Xiangyang, Liu Jingzhou would be treated with great courtesy and never neglected me!"

The guard said, "Who are you? The last official is not very clear. But Liu Envoy has rules. If he falls asleep, don't bother him even if he is in a big way."

Wang Xi was furious and said angrily: "You are looking for death! We have important things to do. If you delay the big things, can you afford it? No, I will go into the mansion to meet Liu Jun now!"

After saying that, he saw him raising his legs and about to walk into the mansion.

The guard did not react at all when he heard this, but just reached out and touched his ring-headed knife subconsciously, as if he wanted to see if Wang Xi had the courage to break into the house.

Ma Yun's reaction was quick. When he saw the guard reaching out to touch the knife on his waist, he woke up immediately.

He hurriedly stopped Wang Xi and smiled at the guard and said, "Envoy Liu is really hard for the inspection committee this time. We are waiting here for a while. What's the difficulty? Let's wait."

The other people obviously still felt dissatisfied on their faces.

But Ma Yun had already said this, so they didn't have much to say, so they could only stand in place and wait quietly.

Seeing that the few of them were acting like this, the guard slowly pulled the ring-headed knife back to his waist.

This wait took two full hours.

Seeing that the sun was about to set and Liu Qi had not yet woken up, Gao Chang and Wang Xi's faces became very ugly. They urged the guard to enter the mansion to greet Liu Qi, but his guard just didn't move.

It really makes you angry.

Wang Xi saw Liu Qi's appearance so well and said angrily: "How dare this young man be so arrogant? We are all scholars from all states and have a reputation throughout the states. He dared to lie high in the mansion and let us wait here alone. It's really rude! Such negligence of famous scholars will not be criticized by the scholars in the world!"

Ma Yun waved his hand and said, "Forget it, it's all a trivial matter... Besides, they may be sleeping. I just want to ask you guys, if we go in later, do we want to apologize to the young man?"

Gao Chang raised his eyebrows and said, "Apology? Why do you want to apologize to him?"

Ma Yun sighed and said, "On the same day, we advised Liu Jingzhou that a strong son and a father are not desirable. We advised Liu Jingzhou to take charge of military power. Now that the enemy is in front of a great enemy, Jingzhou cannot retreat to the six powerful troops, so we can only rely on the young man... Before we arrived, Liu Jingzhou also asked the second and third masters to roughly tell the true intention of sending us here. First, represent Liu Jingzhou, ask the young man to take charge of the military power of the ten counties, second, invite him back for Liu Jingzhou, build a platform for the imperial court to serve as a general, and third, we want us to apologize to the eldest master for Liu Jingzhou to seek his understanding..."

Before Ma Yan could finish his words, he heard Gao Chang say, "I have been famous for many years, and all the scholars in the world know my name. Even when Liu Jingzhou saw me, he was very courteous and asked me to a twenty-year-old junior? Don't think about it!"

Wang Xi also said: "When he was discussing the scriptures that day, he insulted us in public and had not yet argued with him. Now he still wants me to apologize to him? What kind of identity is ours! This matter must not be decided!"

Wang Su said: "The first two things can give Liu Jingzhou face, but the rest will never be done!"

Seeing that the few people who were walking with him insisted on apologizing to Liu Qi, Ma Yan couldn't help but sigh and agreed.

At this moment, I saw someone from the mansion coming out and whispered a few words in the ear of the guard.

After hearing this, the guard said, "Everyone, Envoy Liu is awake, please invite you to the hall."

After hearing this, several famous scholars tidied up their clothes and then walked in with their heads raised.

When I entered the main hall, I saw Liu Qi sitting upright on the main hall, full of energy and energy, without any sign of fatigue.

Liu Qi glanced at the people in front of him and said, "What are you doing here?"

There wasn't even a polite explanation.

Gao Chang was quite angry when he saw this.

But now they are coming with Liu Biao's strict orders. The so-called serious matter is important, and other matters can only be put aside.

But Wang Xi bowed to Liu Qi and said, "I have seen the envoy. We have come to convey two things to the envoy. One is that Liu Jingzhou has reported to the court and asked the imperial court to grant the position of governor of the envoy and governor of the military of Jingchu and Yizhou. The other is to ask the envoy to return to Xiangyang. Now Liu Jingzhou is arranging people to build a high platform in Xiangyang and serve as generals on behalf of the imperial court. In this way, Liu Jingzhou can make Liu famous in various states. It is a great good thing for the envoy. According to the order of Liu Jingzhou, we come to ask Liu to go with us and ask Liu to return with us."

Gao Chang also stepped forward and said, "I will follow us back to Xiangyang."

Xu Su and Dong You also said to Liu Qi: "The car is ready, just wait for the help of the lord to go quickly."

Liu Qi looked at several people back and forth and said lightly: "That's all?"

Fu Fan hurriedly said, "According to the order of Liu Envoy, I will bring the envoy's military household list, military talismans, swords and other things together and hand them over to the envoy."

After saying that, he clapped his hands and had a companion to bring a box as the servant, which contained bamboo slips and military household notes, and a pallet placed on Liu Qi's table.

Inside are military talismans and generals.

Liu Qi looked at these things calmly and said, "That's all?"

Gaochang, Wang Xi, Fu Fan and others narrowed their eyes when they heard this.

After a moment of embarrassing silence...

"It's all this, it's all." Gao Chang said first.

"Okay, since there is nothing else, so you guys go to the inn to rest first. We will set off to return to Xiangyang the next day."

Xu Su hurriedly said, "I'm not going to be late, why should I wait for the next day? Why should we wait for the next day? It's better to be now..."

"I said, let you all go down and rest."

Liu Qi's words were an unquestionable tone.

Seeing that Liu Qi was not very friendly to them, Gao Chang and others knew that they would continue to stay here, which would be a little embarrassed. Maybe they would lose face.

Since Liu Qi has agreed, nothing else has to do with them.

Everyone immediately said goodbye to Liu Qi, but Ma Yun seemed to be a little hesitant and wanted to say something to Liu Qi, but because of the face of his companions, he could only leave with everyone.

After these famous scholars of today's scholars left, Liu Qi ordered people to gather Dian Wei, Xu Dan, Xu Yi, Xu You, Fa Zheng, and Meng Daren.

Xun You, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da were Liu Qi's disciples and officials. They had previously followed Liu Qi to Xiangyang. When Liu Qi went to patrol the counties, they did not follow him.

It was only after Liu Biao ordered the construction of a platform to worship the general that they came here at night.

Xun You saw the military talismans and swords on the table, smiled slightly and said, "I'm sorry, you can do it."

Liu Qi nodded and said, "Time is no longer available. Xu Dan, hurry up and send three thousand Jingwu soldiers to order them tonight. Let's go to Jiangxia County at night!"

"only!"

Xu Dan bowed his order and immediately turned around and left.

After Xu Dan left, Dian Wei looked at Liu Qi and asked in confusion: "At the beginning of the six troops dispatched Jingzhou, Liu Jingzhou sent someone to summon the envoy to Xiangyang, but the envoy did not go back. He thought it was the envoy who played a traitor with Liu Jingzhou... But now it seems that it is not... The envoy, why did he have to wait until today to get the military power back? Please forgive Dian for being stupid, why is this?"

Liu Qi smiled when he heard this, but said nothing.

But Xun You next to him spoke.

"This is a plan designed by Xun for Liu Envoy."

Dian Weich said: "Mr. What is the use of this strategy?"

Fa Zheng explained: "Jun Dian, people in Xiangyang now think that if Liu Envoy can return to Xiangyang, there is a way to defeat the enemy invading the six groups. But in fact, it is just what everyone thinks. Liu Envoy is also an ordinary person. No matter how powerful he is or how great it is, it is extremely difficult to deal with the six groups of people on the surface. Once Liu Envoy returns to Xiangyang and becomes the gubernatorial master, the six groups of people will know about this matter. They will also change their strategies to deal with this matter. In the end, the war between our Jingzhou and these six groups of people will still be head-on, and may still be difficult to solve. It is really hard to predict the victory or defeat... Even if you win, I am afraid that there will be a great loss."

Dian Wei turned to look at Liu Qi.

Liu Qi then spoke slowly and said, "Mr. Gongda wrote me a letter, reminding me not to take military power first. He secretly went to see my two younger brothers and asked them to go to his father to advise, find a way to ask his father to send someone to Luoyang to ask for imperial edicts, and build a high platform in Xiangyang to worship generals... The real purpose of going around such a big circle is just to cover up people's eyes."

Xun You said: "Yes, all the soldiers and horses of all directions are in Jingzhou. The military situation is urgent and naturally cannot be neglected. Now Liu Jingzhou sends people to Luoyang to build a platform with great fanfare, and sends famous scholars of today to welcome Liu Envoy back to Jingzhou. This matter is now known to the entire southern border. Now even our own people think that Liu Envoy is deliberately making things difficult for Liu Jingzhou. The commander of the six directions of troops will not have any doubts."

Liu Qi smiled and said, "The high platform in Xiangyang cannot be built. Those famous scholars today did not welcome me back. The construction of the platform and the generals had not been completed. In everyone's eyes, I am not in charge of the troops and there is no need to take more precautions. But in fact, from this moment on, the military power is already in my hands."

After saying that, Liu Qi looked at Dian Wei and said, "If I took over military power from the beginning, it would be equivalent to directly indicating my identity and going to war with the six people in a normal manner. Even if I can win, the price would not be low. But as long as I pretend to be a slut, I will spend time with the people in Xiangyang, and my father has been working hard for me, then in everyone's eyes, I am not a soldier."

"And because of this, I am now equivalent to being in the dark. Now everyone's attention is on Xiangyang, waiting for me to go back to the stage to serve as a general, and to take charge of the troops in Jingzhou in a normal manner... But I set off now and rushed to Jiangxia at night. When everyone thought I would go back to Xiangyang, I first took Huang Zu's military power in Jiangxia and defeated him Yuan Shu's troops all the way... Cao Cao wanted to play with me, so let's see who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one."

Dian Wei suddenly realized.

Xun You continued: "Pang De, Xu Rong, Gan Ning and others who were not favored by Liu Jingzhou before and abandoned it have long been comforted by Fa Zheng. Now, when Liu Jun moves in Jiangxia, they will start to follow the order. Everyone is waiting for Xiangyang to build a platform and worship generals, so let them wait."
