Chapter 35: Persuasion to leave


After Lu Zhi took the three eunuchs out of the main hall to visit the Ling Emperor.

All the officials in the main hall also stood up and walked out of the main hall, following the footsteps of Lu Zhi and others to visit the Ling Emperor.

Of course, it is unknown how many of them are loyal.

Liu Qi and Cai Yan also stood up, and Cai Yong also came to their side.

However, they did not intend to follow the others to visit Ling Emperor, but were preparing to leave the palace.

The banquet was over before it even started, and there was nothing to do if they stayed.

Although they were invited to the banquet, they did not hold any official positions and could not go to the Ling Emperor's palace.

They were left waiting here, so it was better to leave the palace. go back.

"Lao Cai" Just when Liu Qi and others were about to walk out of the hall, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao came over.

Xun Yu also stood up from his seat and walked to Cao Cao's side.

Cai Yong nodded, knowing in his heart that Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were not looking for him.

He turned around and said, "Qi'er, I'll wait for you outside."

After speaking, Liu Qi walked out without waiting for an answer.

"Brother Liu Qi, it seems that if we want to meet up for a drink, it may take a while," Yuan Shao said.

"Yes, it's a pity.

I originally planned to invite Liu Qixian brother to have a drink in the evening after the banquet.

Looking at the current situation, it is impossible."

Cao Cao's tone was full of regret.

"Brother Meng De, brother Benchu, why are you in a hurry?

Business is more important," Liu Qi said.

Xun Yu, who was standing next to Cao Cao, saw a glint in Liu Qi's eyes without attracting anyone's attention, and then returned to his original appearance.

"Haha, that's right.

If the matter is not serious, I will come to meet you again.

I will take my leave now," Cao Cao said with a smile.

After saying that, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, and Xun Yu bowed their hands to Liu Qi and walked out of the hall.

Liu Qi looked at the backs of the three of them, a light flashed in his eyes, and said secretly: It's impossible if it's not serious.

He may be busy next time, and whether he can remember to invite him to drink is a question.

Immediately, he led Cai Yan to the outside of the main hall, and left the palace with Cai Yong, who was waiting outside the main hall, and took a carriage back.

In the Cai Mansion.

After Liu Qi left the palace, on his way back, he decided to persuade Cai Yong to leave Luoyang.

Emperor Ling's illness would most likely have a direct chain reaction, and the whirlpool in Luoyang would begin to operate.

Get up, no one can guarantee whether there will be any accidents, so leaving is the best choice.

After telling Dian Wei to go back to his temporary residence, he followed Cai Yong into the hall of Cai Mansion, frowning all the way.

In the hall, Cai Yan personally made two cups of tea for Liu Qi and Cai Yong, and then left.

Along the way, she also felt that Liu Qi had been absent-minded after hearing that Emperor Ling was ill, and his performance at the banquet. , knowing that Liu Qi must have something to discuss with her father Cai Yong, left the hall very sensibly.

"Qi'er, do you have anything to discuss with me?"

Cai Yong took a sip of tea and said.

Seeing his daughter's behavior and Liu Qi's demeanor, he could guess that something was going on.

Since he met Liu Qi, he had never seen Liu Qi like this.

Liu Qi nodded without denying it.

He pondered for a moment and said, "My son-in-law wants to ask his father-in-law to leave Luoyang.

He will send someone to escort him along the way."

Hearing this, Cai Yong knew that Liu Qi wanted him and Cai Yan to leave.

Liu Qi himself did not intend to leave, or else he would personally escort him instead of sending someone to escort him.

However, he did not understand why Liu Qi would persuade him to leave at this time. .

Suddenly, his pupils shrank, and he thought of the news at the banquet.

He took a serious look at Liu Qi and said, "Why?"

"Didn't my father-in-law think of it?"

Liu Qi also paid attention to Cai Yong's expression and continued: "My father-in-law should still remember that my son-in-law said that the reason why the eunuchs and noble officials can be stable is that His Majesty has always been at the center to mediate.

Now your Majesty” Liu Qi did not continue speaking.

He knew that Cai Yong would understand what he meant.

However, he did not expect that Emperor Ling would fall ill at this time.

It is only January of the sixth year of Zhongping, and February has not even arrived yet. .

According to what he knew, the Ling Emperor should not be in trouble until April, but now it was three months earlier.

Although he didn't know why, he still needed to make corresponding preparations.

Don't be afraid of the worst, just be afraid of ten thousand. snap Cai Yong was originally holding the teacup, but when he heard Liu Qi's words, his eyes widened in horror.

His hands shook, and the teacup fell to the ground.

It broke into pieces and the tea splashed everywhere.

He knew that Liu Qi had always been ambitious, but he didn't know Liu Qi's purpose.

But now that Liu Qi opened his mouth, he was cursing the emperor's fate not long ago.

How could he not be surprised?

He also thought about why Liu Qi refused to enter the court.

An official looks ambitious but has nothing to do.

What he seeks is not an official position, nor a state or a place, but the entire country of the Han Dynasty.

"You, you" Cai Yong pointed at Liu Qi with trembling fingers, but couldn't say anything.

"Father-in-law, there is no need to be surprised.

You must know that the princes and generals Xiang Ning have the guts.

Now the Han Dynasty is corrupt, the eunuchs are in power, the nobles are in power, and the Ling Emperor is incompetent.

This will happen sooner or later.

The Ling Emperor falls ill, the eunuchs have no support, and the nobles The officials will definitely be ready to make a move, and Luoyang will fall into chaos.

Staying in Luoyang is likely to put your life in danger.

My son-in-law begs his father-in-law to leave Luoyang," Liu Qi said seriously.

"Alas" Cai Yong sighed and recovered from the surprise, saying: "All this is just your guess.

If your Majesty just caught the wind and cold occasionally, it will be no big deal.

If you get caught in it at this time, something will definitely happen."

Disaster, don’t forget your identity.”

"That's wrong.

If Emperor Ling only caught the cold by chance, he wouldn't have sent someone to announce it after the banquet time.

Instead, he would have someone announce it outside the palace gate early in the morning.

It must be an unexpected incident, and No matter what happens, the noble officials will not miss this opportunity to get rid of the eunuchs.

The grudges between the two parties have survived for a long time."

Liu Qi paused, stood up from the chair, straightened his back, put his hands behind his back, and said with sharp eyes: "My son-in-law said that the moment I leave Jingzhou, the only thing I want people in the world to remember is my name, Liu Qi." , not Liu Biao’s eldest son Liu Qi, this identity is just a burden to me.”

At this time, Liu Qi's image looked domineering.

After all, the overlord is in the past, but don't you just want to be the overlord now?

Cai Yong looked at Liu Qi, and this idea suddenly came to his mind.

"And my son-in-law has no intention of falling into the whirlpool in Luoyang.

Now is not the best time.

I just need to be a spectator.

After all, I don't have any foundation in Luoyang.

The only thing I worry about is my father-in-law."

It’s just He Yan’er,” Liu Qi finally said
