Time passes slowly The affairs between Liu Qi and the Wei family have gradually faded away, and are no longer as eye-catching as they were at the beginning.
After all, they still need to live.
It is enough to pay a little attention to the affairs of these upper-class people.
Anyway, for civilians like them It has no impact on the people.
However, Liu Qi did not leave Luoyang and return to Jingzhou.
Instead, he settled down in Luoyang and did not do anything shocking again.
Everything returned to peace, except for visiting Cai Mansion from time to time.
After Cai Yong was cleared of charges, he also moved out of the civilian area.
With the help of his old friends, he also settled in a better mansion in Nancheng.
Although he had recovered his innocence, he did not enter the court.
Be an official.
The two mansions are not very far apart, but Cai Yong's mansion was bought, while Liu Qi's was rented.
In Cai Mansion Garden Waves of sweet music sounded in the garden.
I saw Cai Yan sitting cross-legged behind a table, playing the Jiaowei Qin placed on the table.
The sweet sounds of the piano were also played by her hands.
There is a stone table not far away, with an old man and a young man sitting opposite each other.
There is a chessboard on the stone table.
Black and white chess pieces are intertwined on the chessboard.
There are more white and less black.
It seems that the situation is almost over. .
The two people playing the game were Cai Yong and Liu Qi who came to visit.
"Qi'er's chess skills have improved very quickly, but she is still as fierce as ever and lacks a trace of composure," Cai Yong said.
He knew that Liu Qi couldn't play chess at the beginning.
Liu Qi's chess skills were taught by him personally during this period.
From losing in the first few rounds to now, he has developed a style.
From this, he can also see Liu Qi's inner character. . snap Liu Qi held a sunspot in his hand, placed it somewhere on the chessboard, and said: "My father-in-law should know how to risk his life and survive, and I think only attack is the best defense."
Since that time, the matter between him and Cai Yan has been settled, but he has not married Cai Yan yet.
"It's hard but easy to break.
Once you make a mistake, you will fall into a situation of eternal disaster."
Cai Yong was not slow in his hands.
He placed a white stone on the chessboard as he spoke.
By the way, he took five black stones from the chessboard and said, "Why don't you know that Xiang Yu is the overlord?"
"The overlord is in the past."
Liu Qi was not humble, put down one black stone, took away three white stones, and said: "Injury to the enemy by eight hundred and self-destruction of one thousand.
Sometimes it is a clever trick, it just depends on how you choose."
"Haha, you kid!"
Cai Yong shook his head and directly put down a white piece, ending the chess game.
Seeing this, Liu Qi was not surprised.
When he reached a third of the game, he knew that he had lost.
He didn't like playing chess.
It was too energy-consuming and required patience.
Cai Yan also finished a song at this time, stood up, walked to the stone table, poured a cup of tea for Cai Yong and Liu Qi, and then went back to continue playing the piano.
She knew that the two of them still had something to talk about.
Cai Yong picked up the tea cup, took a sip of tea, and said: "Can't you be more serious?
Apart from the previous things, you have been staying in Luoyang doing nothing.

I heard that Zigan and the others want to recommend you to the court.
As an official, you refused.”
Liu Qi nodded and did not hide it.
Lu Zhi and Yang Xiu had indeed come to see him and wanted to seek a position in the imperial court for him, but they were all rejected by him.
"why" "This is not the time for me to enter the court, and my father-in-law, please don't forget that I am the eldest son of the Jingzhou governor.
If I enter the court as an official, there will be a lot of trouble," Liu Qi said.
Cai Yong nodded.
He understood the meaning of Liu Qi's last words.
To become an official in the court, whether in Luoyang or back to Jingzhou, and although Liu Qi is Liu Biao's eldest son, he does not have a position.
If he accepts the recommendation of Lu Zhi and others , doesn’t that mean Liu Biao has no vision and is suppressing Liu Qi?
"What do you think of today's court?"
"Now the court seems to be stable, but there are many internal conflicts.
The battles between officials and eunuchs have never stopped.
The general is just a trick of the nobles, just pushing others ahead."
Liu Qi took a sip of tea and continued: "There will definitely be a fight between officials and eunuchs, but now His Majesty is regulating and balancing the two parties.
In addition, Your Majesty favors eunuchs, so the court will look like this."
There is stability, but underneath that stability there are many crises.”
He was not wrong.
Before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the eunuchs were powerful.
With the trust of the Ling Emperor, they could rule the sky with one hand.
Although the gentry officials were dissatisfied, they did not dare to confront them head-on.
After the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the gentry officials also had a lot of power.
Strength, no longer afraid of the eunuch, if Emperor Ling still believed in the eunuch, they would have got rid of the eunuch long ago, instead of just pushing He Jin to the front to taunt the eunuch, they hid behind to pick up the slack.
Cai Yong looked at Liu Qi in shock.
He didn't expect that Liu Qi could see more thoroughly than him.
He knew that if the eunuch was still there, the court would not be peaceful, but he never thought about what would happen next, and since Liu Qi It is not difficult to hear in his words that if there was no Spirit Emperor among them, then He is not an official in the court now because the eunuchs are still there.
Even if Lu Zhi and others are there, if he becomes an official, there will be a lot of obstacles.
If the eunuchs seize the opportunity, he may not be able to escape.
"Is this one of the reasons why you rejected the recommendation from Zi Qian and others?"
Cai Yong looked at Liu Qi with a smile.
Liu Qi shook his head with a smile and did not answer.
Did he tell Cai Yong that this would not exist for a long time?
Once Emperor Ling died, the court of the Eastern Han Dynasty would be nothing more than a puppet.
"Forget it, I've seen countless people, but I really can't tell what you kid is thinking.
Anyway, you have your own thoughts, otherwise you wouldn't have shown nothing when you were in Jingzhou, and that's it for today.
That's it, you're not here to see me anyway."
After saying that, Cai Yong stood up and walked to the hall.
Liu Qi shook his head with a wry smile.
There are many things that cannot be revealed now.
The Han Dynasty has not fallen apart yet.
These people still care about the imperial court, just like Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and others he has come into contact with.
They have no idea of replacing them yet. , still working hard to restore the glory of the Han Dynasty.
The beginning of everything has to wait until Emperor Ling dies and Dong Zhuo enters the capital.
"Although the overlord is in the past, the remaining power in the world is still undecided," Liu Qi sighed leisurely.
"Master Qi, what is the meaning of this statement?"

Hearing this, Liu Qi reacted and saw Cai Yan standing next to him with a glint in his eyes.
"This matter will come to an end soon," Liu Qi said, "It's a beautiful and sunny day today, how about you and I go out to have some fun?"
Cai Yan saw that Liu Qi did not answer the question directly and did not continue to ask.
She nodded and agreed with Liu Qi's suggestion to go out for fun.
During this period, Liu Qi came to visit her and was dragged to play chess by her father Cai Yong and talk about something.
Outside of the episode, I spent the rest of the time coming to see her for fun.
According to Liu Qi, this is a way to connect their feelings
