Chapter 151 The Reappearance of Middle-aged People

"Brother." As soon as Liu Qi was about to go to the door, he saw Liu Xiu coming quickly and ran over with a happy face.

"Third brother." Liu Qi also stepped forward and hugged Liu Xiu, and it took a while to let Liu Xiu go.

Liu Qi looked up and down at Liu Xiu and saw that Liu Xiu had not seen it for months. Obviously, Liu Xiu was much more mature and stable. Liu Qi has known about Liu Xiu's situation in Xiangyang these days. Before Liu Qi left, he handed over Liu Xiu to Yiji to take care of him, and let Liu Xiu take Yiji as his teacher and learn from Yiji.

"You have done a good job these days." Liu Qi looked at Liu Xiudao. These days, Liu Xiu studied very hard with Yi Ji and made great progress. Even Yi Ji was shocked by it. Yi Ji mentioned Liu Xiu's performance more than once in the letter.

"It's not like the big brother fighting outside the world." Liu Xiu is a little embarrassed. He has learned military tactics these days, but he hopes to fight with Liu Qi in the future and help Liu Qi.

"Haha, don't worry that you can lead troops to war when you learn it. The way of war is not just about learning books, but also experience is extremely important." Liu Qi naturally knew Liu Xiu's intention to persuade him, " Even Brother Pan has been learning the art of war with the military division these days."

"Ah, the second brother also studies the art of war. He is the least willing to study." Liu Xiu was surprised and said that in the past, even Liu Qi's whole book was full of Liu Pan, and Liu Pan was often lazy, let alone take the initiative to study.

"Although he didn't have to study hard before, he is very hard now. He will come back in a few days. You will know when you ask him." Liu Qi turned around and said, "Go in and talk about it."

"Hmm." Liu Xiu nodded and followed Liu Qi into the hall.

"Brother, tell me about your expedition these days." Liu Xiu looked at Liu Qi with an expectant face.

Liu Qi smiled and talked to Liu Xiu about what happened these days. He was excited to hear Liu Xiu, especially when he heard that Liu Qi led a thousand soldiers and horses into Jiangdong. He paid attention to Liu Qi all the time these days. Hearing that Liu Qi was trapped in Jiangdong, Liu Xiu couldn't wait to put his wings to rescue him. If Yi Ji hadn't stopped Liu Xiu, he would have gone to Changsha.

"Brother, you must take me with you next time you go on an expedition." Liu Xiu said with a firm face.

"Good." Liu Qi nodded and said that he wanted to cultivate Liu Xiu into a counselor or a wise general, but he did not cultivate Liu Xiu into a person like Zhao Kuo. The most indispensable thing in history was the person who talked about soldiers on paper, or Zhao Kuo and others were indeed talented and outstanding, but if the king of Zhao could put Zhao Kuo at the bottom at the beginning. After some training, Zhao Guo may have another general, so he wants Liu Xiu to accumulate experience as soon as possible.

The Battle of Guandu is coming. Liu Qi is not sure how much time Jingzhou can calm down at most. However, after the Battle of Guandu, Jingzhou has been a must-have place in the world since ancient times, and will definitely become the object of competition for the princes of the world. At that time, Liu Qi is eager for talents who can be independent.

"Really?" Liu Xiu couldn't believe it. He just asked casually and didn't have much hope at all. Unexpectedly, Liu Qi really agreed.

"Of course it's true." Liu Qi smiled.

"Brother, I heard that Yuan Shao sent an envoy to Jingzhou. Not long ago, Yuan Shao's envoy had lived in the post station in Xiangyang, but soon as the envoy lived in the post station, he was recruited into the mansion by his father. At present, the envoy lives in his father's state pastoral mansion." Liu Xiu said doubtfully.

"Oh, do you know who is the messenger sent by Yuan Shao?" Liu Qi has no good impression on Yuan Shao, but there are many talents under Yuan Shao. Whether they are generals or counselors, they are the most among the princes in the world. Liu Qi still wants to fight for these people, and as Yuan Shao's envoy, he must have a certain status in Yuan Shao's army. There are not many such people, and Liu Qi has to pay attention to them.

"I don't know about this. The messenger has not appeared since he arrived in Xiangyang, but tomorrow his father will pick up the eldest brother in the house. At that time, Yuan Shao's messenger will definitely appear and the eldest brother will know. I also heard from the teacher that the teacher did not mention the name of the messenger. Liu Xiu shook his head.

"What else has happened in Xiangyang these days?" Liu Qi asked that although he had a recent understanding of the situation in Xiangyang, his understanding was not comprehensive enough.

"There is nothing important except this matter, but I heard that Huang Chengyan, the patriarch of the Huang clan, has also arrived in Xiangyang in the past few days. I have heard of Huang Chengyan. Although he is the patriarch of the Huang clan, he has always been where few people have seen him. This time, he came to Xiangyang, probably for the sake of his eldest brother. Zu was escorted to Xiangyang. Liu Xiu suddenly said something worried, and he also hated Huang Zu very much, but a few days ago, when he heard Yi Ji talk about the power of the Huang family, he was a little worried.

"Oh, the Huang family?" Liu Qi muttered, and his face was a little solemn. He also sent people to inquire about the power of the Huang family these days. More than half of the whole Xiangyang family had an inextricable relationship with the Huang family. Liu Qi had to be cautious.

"I hope you know what's interesting, or the next one after cleaning up the Cai family is the Huang family." Liu Qi snorted coldly in his heart. Although the Huang family is huge, they also have concerns, that is, the Huang family does not have much military power. Since Huang Chengyan became the patriarch, he has deliberately kept a low profile, and the people in the clan have also kept a low profile. There are not many people who are officials. At the beginning, Huang Zu was the governor of Jiangxia and the Huang clan. There was a big conflict.

"Big brother, the teacher said that he has some friendship with the patriarch of the Huang family. Although the patriarch of the Huang family is a little strange, it will not be difficult for the eldest brother. The eldest brother needs to increase his power as soon as possible. This is a good choice for the Huang family. If the eldest brother is interested, he only needs to tell the teacher. At that time, he can Do me a favor." Liu Xiu thought that Liu Qi was worried about the Huang family and comforted him.

"That can't be better." Liu Qi was a little surprised. It is difficult for the Huang family to ask for help, but since Yi Ji said so, there must be a reason for him. Moreover, Huang Chengyan is also a strange person in history, and Liu Qi is also interested in him.

"Then I'll talk to the teacher when I go back and ask him to prepare first." Liu Xiu said happily. It's very happy for him to help Liu Qi.

"Well, since you've been here for a while, let's eat here." Liu Qi was facing Liu Xiudao.

"Oh, by the way, when I came to the house a few days ago, I saw a middle-aged man. Zhang Bo said it was his friend. The two seemed to be very familiar, and I felt that the middle-aged man was not simple." Liu Xiu looked at Liu Qi as if he suddenly thought of something.

"Hmm?" Liu Qi looked at Liu Xiu and asked, "What does a middle-aged man look like?"

Liu Qi knew that Zhang Bo's history must be extraordinary, but he has never asked, but now it seems that Zhang Bo's identity should be related to the middle-aged people mentioned by Liu Xiu. Zhang Bo's extraordinary martial arts skills are hidden, so his friends will certainly not be simple.

"The middle-aged man was dressed in white, with a sword on his back, a wine gourd hanging around his waist, and a little beard in his forties, but I didn't pay attention to anything else." Liu Xiu thought for a moment and said that he just looked at the middle-aged man dressed strangely.

"What? When did you see him? Liu Qi exclaimed that the middle-aged people described by Liu Xiu were no different from the middle-aged people Liu Qi saw in Yunzhu Mountain.

"In the evening of the day before yesterday, when I came to the house to ask about my eldest brother's news, I saw Zhang Bo coming into the house with a middle-aged man. At that time, I also asked, and Zhang Bo said that it was his friend." Liu Xiu wondered why Liu Qi had such a big reaction.

"Wow!"

Liu Qi exhaled. At this time, he had determined that the middle-aged man Liu Xiu saw was the middle-aged man he met in Yunzhu Mountain. Although he did not know what the middle-aged man had to do with Zhang Bo, he could avoid the middle-aged Liu Qi as much as possible. Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man was very likely to be in his own house. Liu Qi couldn't help but be a little suspicious. Did the middle-aged man come to him on purpose?

"Come on." Liu Qi shouted at the door.

"The eldest son." The guard at the door hurried in and bowed.

"Is the middle-aged man who came to the house a few days ago still in the house?" Liu Qi asked.

"The eldest son, the middle-aged man is a friend of the housekeeper. He lives in the front yard and comes back very late every morning. Now my subordinates don't know if he is in the house." The guard said quickly.

"It seems that I have thought too much." Liu Qi breathed a sigh of relief, and the middle-aged man did not seem to come to him.

"Go down." Liu Qi waved his hand to let the guard retreat.

"No." The guard saluted Liu Qi and walked out.

"Big brother, what's wrong with this middle-aged man?" Liu Xiu saw that Liu Qi was a nervous middle-aged man.

"It's nothing. We also met this middle-aged man a few days ago, but we didn't expect him to come to the house." Liu Qi shook his head and then told Liu Xiu what happened that day.

"So the eldest brother got the Xuanyuan Sword?" Liu Xiu was a little surprised.

"Well, I'll take you to have a look now." Liu Qi nodded and got up and walked outside. Liu Xiu followed with an excited face behind him.

Not long after, the two came to the carriage at the door of the backyard. They were in a hurry and were in the house again. Otherwise, Liu Qi would not have put the Xuanyuan sword on the carriage. He boarded the carriage and went to the Xuanyuan sword. Liu Qi jumped down and handed the Xuanyuan sword in his hand to Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu took the Xuanyuan sword and played with a happy face and said, "I didn't expect that there was really a Xuanyuan sword in the world, and it was still obtained by the eldest brother. The Xuanyuan sword is said to be the sword of the emperor Xuanyuan. Isn't the eldest brother or...?" After saying that, Liu Xiu knew that he had made a mistake and stopped.

Liu Qi shook his head and said without saying, "Who knows whether the legendary things are true or not, and it's just a sword that can't represent anything. People will win the sky. After all, these are external things."

"Papa!" "Bang!" Bang!"

"The eldest son is really unique." A loud voice woke up the two people from behind Liu Qi.
