The frail counselor you said, you fight against three heroes alone?

While Guo Jia and Zhou Yu were talking, they had arrived at Liu Qi's residence.

As soon as they entered the room where Liu Qi lived, the two of them smelled a disgusting smell mixed with countless gases.

Walking into the inner hall, looking at Liu Qi lying on the hospital bed, the two frowned tightly.

"Meet Jingzhou Mu."

After bowing to Liu Qi, the two walked towards Liu Qi's bedside.

At this moment Liu Qi was lying on the bed, although he could see Zhou Yu and Guo Jia coming, but at this moment Liu Qi was unable to say a word.

The two walked to Liu Qi's bedside, and frowned as they looked at the bowl of medicine they had just drunk on the bedside.

He picked up the medicine bowl and took a closer look. When he saw the residue at the bottom of the bowl, Guo Jia had roughly discovered the problem.

Although I don't know what the specific reason is, but anyway, I stayed in the medical hall for a while before, and I also discussed many medical issues with Zhang Zhongjing and Hua Tuo.
So Guo Jia also knows a little bit about medicine now.

Looking at the residue in the bowl in Guo Jia's hand, Zhou Yu shook his head slightly.

"I don't know, but the state shepherd is currently in the prime of his life. If it is an ordinary illness, it will definitely not be like this. It suddenly became like this. There must be some hidden secrets in it."

Although Zhou Yu is not as proficient in medical skills as Guo Jia, he is also a shrewd person, and the reason for this can be seen at a glance.

Nodding slightly, Guo Jia turned his head and looked coldly at a man who looked like a doctor beside him.

"Say! Who gave this medicine!"

Looking at Guo Jia, the doctor was frightened by the chill in Guo Jia's eyes and fell to his knees.

Although Guo Jia didn't say anything harsh, but because he has been in a high position for a long time, and the counselors have to constantly try to figure out people's hearts every day.

The aura contained in his eyes is naturally unbearable for such an ordinary doctor.

"My lord, spare my life, my lord, this is the prescription given by Duke Xuande, I don't know the rest, my lord!"

Soon Langzhong poured out all the things he knew, listening to what the doctor said, both Guo Jia and Zhou Yu's eyes were deeply shocked.

"This Liu Xuande is really capable of doing such insane things!"

Taking a deep breath, Zhou Yu's eyes were full of deep disgust.

"This Liu Xuande has been advocating his own benevolence and righteousness from the beginning to the end, but he has never thought that this person's behavior is so vicious. It seems that what Mr. Pang De said that day is not false. Liu Xuande has today's disaster, and he deserves it!"

In Zhou Yu's mind before, even if Liu Bei was not a person full of benevolence and virtue like Xi Yu, he would still be a benevolent and righteous person.

But what he never expected was that this Liu Bei was able to do such insane things for his own benefit, and he was also a descendant of someone who had been kind to him.

Hearing what the doctor said, Guo Jia didn't say much. After confirming the authenticity of the matter with the doctor several times, he drove all the servants out, leaving him and Zhou Yu alone in the house.

After all the servants left, Guo Jia turned to look at Liu Qi who was on the hospital bed, but at the moment his eyes were full of extreme ruthlessness.

"Mr. Liu, I see that your situation must be very painful at this time. I think you really want to have a good time."

Looking at Guo Jia's eyes, Liu Qi whimpered constantly, but because he couldn't speak at the moment, no one could understand what he said.

But at this moment, Guo Jia leaned over to his side, listening to Liu Qi's constant humming and nodding his head frequently.

"Alright Mr. Liu, Feng Xiao understands."

After saying that, Guo Jia got up and picked up the quilt on the bed, and directly covered Liu Qi's head tightly.

"Bong Xiao! You."

Seeing Guo Jia's appearance, Zhou Yu's face turned pale in shock. Just as he was about to stop him, he understood what Guo Jia meant, and then stepped forward to help Guo Jia.

Under the joint efforts of the two, Liu Qi also quickly lost his breath.

Cleaning up Liu Qi's body was the last bit of respect for Liu Qi, the shepherd of Jingzhou.

Taking a deep breath, Zhou Yu looked at Guo Jia and said:
"Feng Xiao, only you and I will know what happened today, and I will tell the lord to know about it in the future, and absolutely no one else will know about it."

Zhou Yu knew that Liu Bei left Liu Qi in this place because he wanted to hand over this hot potato to Xi Yu.
Although Liu Qi has been killed by them now, this matter must not be let others know, otherwise it will be difficult to block the mouths of the world.

Looking at Liu Qi's body on the bed with a slight nod, Guo Jia couldn't help sighing:

"Liu Jingsheng has been kind to the people all his life. It can be said that he has great virtue in the world, but his descendants should not have reached such a point. Liu Qi is better dead than alive now. At least he will not have to suffer anymore. I only hope that he can devote himself to ordinary people in the future. Home, take a look at the changes between the heaven and the earth."

Nodding slightly, Zhou Yu obviously agreed with Guo Jia's thoughts.

"That's right, this matter is over now, let's report this matter to the lord in the future so that the lord can make a decision."

Nodding slightly, Zhou Yu and Guo Jia discussed some details again and left the room where Liu Qi was.

After nightfall, Guo Jia and the others hosted a banquet at the Governor's Mansion and invited a few wealthy patriarchs who had made great efforts to attack Xiangyang this time, to celebrate with the playwright's generals.

Although it was a celebration, everyone present understood that after this banquet, their most important task was to divide up the Jingzhou cake.

The patriarch of the Hao family and Guo Jia and others all know that no matter which dynasty rulers are from ancient times to the present, when they occupy a place,
They all want to govern the place together with the local wealthy family, and the wealthy family continues to grow for this reason.

Afterwards, Guo Jia gathered everyone's opinions and prepared to hand it over to Xi Yu for Xi Yu to decide when he returned to Xiapi.

Standing up and raising the wine glass, Guo Jia looked at the elders of the wealthy family present and said:

"Don't worry, everyone. Guo Jia has seen and remembered all your contributions and hard work in the battle of Xiangyang. What I promised you before will definitely come true."

"It's just that the rules of my opera camp are different from the previous ones. All things must be reviewed by the lord before he can make a decision. But you can rest assured that the Jiading that should be given to you will not be less given to you!"

Hearing Guo Jia's promise, everyone in the wealthy family who was worried that Guo Jia would turn his back on him and deny him immediately let go of their hanging hearts.

Everyone present also raised their wine glasses to Guo Jia with smiles on their faces.

The patriarch of the wealthy clan present thought that although they lost a lot of strength in this war, judging by Guo Jia's appearance, this actor must be much better than the previous Liu Bei.

Like Xi Gong, who have a big family and a big business, they will definitely not lack their little bit of benefits.

The next morning,
Guo Jia announced to the whole Jingzhou that Liu Qi, the shepherd of Jingzhou, died yesterday due to a serious illness.

Hearing the news of Liu Qi's death, the whole Jingzhou exploded in an instant.

After Guo Jia announced the news of Liu Qi's death, the whole Jingzhou began to get busy, and all counties in Jingzhou began to prepare for Liu Qi's funeral.

Guo Jia announced that he would personally preside over Liu Qi's funeral, and even took out Xi Yu's letter, saying that Xi Yu deeply felt Liu Qi's righteousness and expressed deep regret for Liu Qi's death.

And Xi Yu decided to upgrade Liu Qi's burial standard to that of a prince, and posthumously named him Marquis of Jingzhou.

After hearing the news of Liu Qi's death, Mr. Pang De said that he would perform the sacrificial ceremony himself.

In fact, for Liu Qi, this incident can no longer be expressed with high standards. This is completely raising his social status by an unknown number of levels.

But before coming to Jingzhou, Xi Yu had already delegated all the power to Guo Jia, so it was fine for Guo Jia to do whatever he wanted.

The most important thing is that doing so can also leave a good image in the hearts of Jingzhou scholars. Anyway, it will not affect Guo Jia and the others, so it is better to lose a good reputation.

Although Guo Jia's public statement stated that Liu Qi died of illness, he did not explain exactly what illness it was.

Such words, no matter who read it, would not believe it, let alone the elite patriarchs of the wealthy clan?
So after receiving the news of Liu Qi's death, the patriarchs of the various wealthy clans returned halfway and gathered in Xiangyang City.

"Guo Lingjun, we believe in Xigong, I believe in Lingjun, please tell me next time, how did Mr. Liu die of illness, and whether it was caused by that big-eared thief!"

The patriarchs of the wealthy clans who came to Jingzhou originally wanted to ask Guo Jia directly, but after some discussions, they felt that this was not good.

So at the funeral, Kuai Liang pulled Guo Jia to a corner and questioned him.

Hearing Kuai Liang's words, Guo Jia shook his head slightly and sighed.

"Patriarch Kuai, now that Mr. Liu has died of illness, we don't need to say anything more because we regard the deceased as the greatest."

Although Guo Jia said so, Kuai Liang saw that Guo Jia's eyes were always on a middle-aged man kneeling in front of Liu Qi's coffin.

Looking at the middle-aged man, Kuai Liang also remembered that when he came to visit Liu Qi in Xiangyang City, he had seen this man. This man seemed to be the doctor Liu Bei had invited for Liu Qi.

Seeing this, Kuai Liang didn't understand what was there, he bowed to Guo Jia lightly, and then left here to meet with other powerful patriarchs.

After all, Kuai Liang came here this time to ask Liu Qi's cause of death on behalf of all the patriarchs.

Liu Qi's funeral this time can be described as very luxurious and solemn, not only all the local gentry in Jingzhou attended the scene, but also all the generals in Jingzhou.

This scene was also seen by the local gentry in Jingzhou. They knew that Xi Yu's generals had given enough face to Liu Jingsheng and Liu Qi, and even more so to their Jingzhou gentry.

All of a sudden, all the noble families in Jingzhou also felt extremely wise about their decisions that day.

Xigong treats such an insignificant figure as Liu Qi with so much importance, let alone a family like theirs that helped Xigong on his way to seize Jingzhou.

For a moment, everyone felt joy in their hearts, Xi Gong is really the most benevolent and righteous man in the world!

Liu Qi's funeral lasted a total of seven days. Firstly, it was because of the prescribed specifications, and secondly, Guo Jia and others were waiting for news.

In fact, since the day Guo Jia killed Liu Qi, Guo Jia sent secret guards to deliver the news to Xi Yu.

After receiving the news from Guo Jia, Xi Yu immediately understood what Guo Jia meant, so Xi Yu quickly called together a group of literati from the Taiyuan Academy.

Xi Yu asked them to praise Liu Qi from the [-]th generation of his ancestors until Liu Qi was praised. In short, the main point of the full text is.

Liu Qi and his father are both great people. Liu Qi's death is a great loss to the people of Jingzhou. For Liu Qi's passing, Xi Yu expresses endless sorrow and grief.

Anyway, the hearts of these literati are all colorful, just let them play freely.

When the dark guard came back, he also had dozens of eulogies on him, and at the same time, Xi Yu's subordinates also spread these eulogies all over the world in the form of pictures and texts.

At the funeral on the seventh day, Guo Jia selected several representative eulogies and read them out. After killing the doctor to pay homage to Liu Qi, he buried them in the ground.

After this set of procedures was over, the news of Liu Qi's death spread throughout the world, and forces such as the Cao family also sent condolences one after another.

Although Liu Bei was not mentioned at all in the actor's eulogy, this kind of behavior made countless people curious and active.

Although in the upper class, everyone keeps silent about these things, as long as you know it psychologically, there is no need to bring it out to disgust others.

But the folks just don't have so many rules. Everyone is a rough person and speaks more bluntly.

Then rumors spread among the people.

It is said that in order to seize Jingzhou, Liu Bei paralyzed Liu Qi first, and finally killed Liu Qi directly because he couldn't bear it.

Fortunately, the righteous actor discovered Liu Bei's thoughts, so under the leadership of the actor, the righteous army of the actor invaded Jingzhou and rescued the people of Jingzhou from the dire straits.

At this moment, everyone in the whole world has concluded this conclusion as the truth of the matter in their hearts.

When Liu Bei fled back to Yiling in ragged clothes in a small boat, he also got this news from the mouths of the children in the countryside.

"I'm sorry to see you! I really didn't kill Liu Qi!"

At this moment, Liu Bei was kneeling on the ground, facing the direction of Jingzhou and shouting continuously,

But at this time, no one would have heard his voice, and everyone firmly believed that he, Liu Bei, was the murderer of Liu Qi.

Kneeling on the ground, Liu Bei cried bitterly while hammering the ground. One reason for this crying was because he was too wronged in his heart, and Liu Bei knew that there would be no place for him in the Central Plains from now on.

Looking at Liu Bei who was kneeling on the ground crying bitterly, Zhang Fei's eyes were also full of deep anger.

"Brother, don't cry bitterly. This must be the trick of the thieves. The purpose is to make the big brother lose confidence! In the future, I will definitely rush into Xiapi City, take the head of the thieves and give it to the big brother, and avenge the second brother!"

It seems that after glancing at Liu Bei and then at Zhang Fei, Ma Liang persuaded Liu Bei:
"My lord, don't be sad. At this time, General Guan may have encountered an accident. If we waste time here, the enemy may come after us. For the current plan, it is better to enter Xichuan as soon as possible."

Ma Liang can naturally see why Liu Bei is crying, but at this moment he must give Liu Bei a step here.

And Liu Bei also heard the meaning of Ma Liang's words, and continued to follow Ma Liang's words.

"Yun Chang! You can rest assured in the sky, even if the elder brother is dead, he will definitely avenge you!"

Although he understands Ma Liang's words, Guan Yu is his sworn brother after all, and he has followed him for many years, and Liu Bei is really sad at this moment.

"Brother, let's go, we will kill this Jingzhou sooner or later, and we will definitely avenge the revenge of the second brother!"

With the support of Zhang Fei and Wei Yan, Liu Bei and others entered the boat again, and entered Yizhou along the Xiling Gorge, preparing to go to Yizhou to find Liu Zhang to conspire with him.

As for Jingzhou, after the funeral, Zhou Yu was temporarily stationed around Jingzhou, controlling the counties under Jingzhou.

At the same time, troops were sent to prevent Liu Zhang from going out of Sichuan to attack Jingzhou. Although there is a high probability that Liu Zhang would not do this, there is always such a possibility, and what should be defended must be defended.

After discussing with Zhou Yu, Guo Jia left for Jiangdong alone, and no one knew what Guo Jia's purpose was.

Zhang Liaodianwei and the others also led their troops back to Xiapi, after all, they could no longer play any role here.

Huang Xu also pressed Guan Yu with a proud face to show his merits to Xi Yu.

Outside Xiapi City, Xi Yu led a group of civil and military personnel to wait early. It can be said that the current scale is enough to give a few people face.

In fact, logically speaking, Zhang Liao Dianwei went on a trip at public expense this time, and Huang Xu at most just joined in the fun and arrested Guan Yu.

Zhou Yu and Guo Jia, who contributed the most, did not return to Xiapi City this time.

But Naihe Xiyu is very fond of Huang Xu, and this time the battle is also specially arranged for Huang Xu.

Everyone in Xiapi City is also a smart person, and everyone can understand Xi Yu's meaning with their buttocks, so all civil servants and generals in Xiapi City will go out of the city to greet them as long as they are free.

As several flags slowly appeared in the sky, Xi Yu and the others also saw the triumphant team.

Looking from a distance, Zhang Liao and Dian Wei are at the forefront of the team, and Huang Xu is also riding a horse in the third position.

As for Guan Yu, he was crushed by a prison car, and he ate delicious hospitality along the way, which can be said to have given him enough face as a martial artist.

Seeing what Huang Xu did, Xi Yu also nodded slightly.

"This kid, doesn't it seem that he is so arrogant to that kind of lawless realm?"

While speaking, everyone came to the city gate. (end of this chapter)
