Take Liu Biao as an example, he is planning to expand his official residence recently, so in Liu Qi's view, it is normal for Li Yi to build a separate courtyard outside the city.

Li Yi shook his head, pointed at the outline of the hill with his horsewhip and drew a circle, and said with a smile: "The shelter, one house and one tile, is enough to shelter from the wind and rain. As for the eldest son here, has he forgotten that Li wants to build an academy?" of."

"Is this the academy?"

Liu Qi's eyes widened in surprise, wondering if Li Yi was joking, but Li Yi's serious expression told him that Li Yi was telling the truth.

Liu Qi looked around the hill again, shook his head and said, "If an academy is built here, it would be too huge."

If it is another courtyard, build a few houses, and then surround the outside courtyard wall, it will be completed, but if it is an academy, looking at the posture, is it possible to accommodate thousands of people inside?

Li Yi smiled, and did not rush to explain, but shook the reins, and drove the horse forward slowly. Liu Qi was puzzled, and chased after him. Soon, a camp appeared in front of his sight. At first glance, it looked like a military camp, but when he got closer Only then can we see that this is not a military camp, but a refugee camp.

I saw shacks, large and small, built close together in the camp, and people came in and out from time to time. These people's clothes were shabby, and they looked hungry. Fortunately, they didn't look like they were going to starve to death.

Li Yi took the reins, got off his horse, and said to Liu Qi: "This is the people who lost their homes and fields after Yuan Shu's disaster. Now tens of thousands of people have been resettled outside Nanyang City. There are more than [-] people in this camp."

Liu Qi also got off his horse, and while walking forward with Li Yi, he said: "Hsianghou Renyi, if it weren't for Xianghou, how many people would have died this winter."

Liu Qi sighed softly, he is a kind-hearted person, even though he knew that the common people were humble, he felt pity for these common people from the bottom of his heart.

Li Yi shook his head and said, "It's not me, but the state shepherd. If it wasn't for the food allocated by the state shepherd, I would be powerless even if I wanted to."

When Liu Qi heard this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Li Yi was naturally happy to praise his father.

While talking, the two had already reached the gate of the camp. When the people saw Li Yi coming, no matter what they were doing before, they put down their work one after another, bowed down to Li Yi, and shouted "I have seen the prefect".

Li Yi smiled and waved to the people, then pointed to Liu Qi and said: "This is Liu Qi, the eldest son of the state shepherd. Nanyang is now stable, thanks to the merits of the state shepherd. Everyone, meet the eldest son soon!"

The common people had seen the noble young man beside Li Yi for a long time, and they were wondering who it was. After hearing Li Yi's introduction of Liu Qi's identity, they realized that Liu Qi had such a big background, and hurriedly bowed down to him again.

However, no one saw that when many people bowed their heads, their eyes were far less submissive than their body movements.

These people did not forget that when they were harmed by Yuan Shu, who was watching from the sidelines, who was indifferent to their lives and deaths, if Li Yi hadn't rode alone to Xiangyang, they would not know how long they would be harmed by Yuan Shu.

Liu Qi didn't know what the people thought, but was very happy with Li Yi's introduction. He cupped his hands and said to the people: "You don't need to be polite, my father is in Xiangyang, and he always thinks about the people's placement, so that he can't sleep at night, and he doesn't know how to eat. Seeing that the people are well, my father has nothing to worry about."

As soon as Liu Qi finished speaking, only a few women dressed as women walked out of some shacks. At first Liu Qi didn't care, but soon Liu Qi's eyes fell on them, very confused.

When the two of them went out, besides Li Yi's own guards, Liu Qi also brought people with him. Seeing Liu Qi looking at the women, the head of Liu Qi's guards moved in his heart. Why not be polite!"

Seeing the guards questioning the people, the people were a little nervous, and the faces of the women were even more panicked. They looked at Liu Qi and Li Yi, and moved their bodies. They didn't know what to do for a while.

Liu Qi is a very magnanimous person. When he saw a few women not saluting to him, he was just confused and not really angry. However, he didn't say anything when the guards questioned him. After all, the guards were just doing their own things, and The tone was far from vicious.

However, when Liu Qi noticed that the eyes of these people began to sweep Li Yi, he finally felt something wrong.

"Please don't blame the eldest son!"

Just when Liu Qi wanted to ask Li Yi, Li Yi had already stepped forward, stood in front of those common people, apologized to Liu Qi, and explained: "Please also know, the eldest son, they didn't salute the eldest son, they are very It was intended to offend, just because of Yi's orders."

Liu Qi's guard stopped talking immediately, and Liu Qi himself showed pure curiosity. He is now full of affection for Li Yi, and he doesn't think Li Yi is deliberately trying to save him.

Li Yi explained: "These women are actually pregnant. I was worried that the fetus in their womb might be hurt when I bowed, so I ordered the pregnant women not to worship the official. Therefore, this offended the eldest son."

"I see."

Liu Qi nodded, secretly thinking that Li Yi was really kind.

Then Liu Qi wanted to tell Li Yi that certain things should be respected and orderly, but seeing the grateful eyes of those people looking at Li Yi, Liu Qi swallowed the words back.

"Xianghou is really kind-hearted"

After a word of emotion, the two continued to move forward, but Liu Qi didn't realize that it was just a small episode, which had already made his image as the number one son of Jingzhou a little bit less in the hearts of the people.

Suddenly, a group of dirty children ran up ahead, and Liu Qi stopped subconsciously. It wasn't that he hated children, it was because these children were so dirty, as if they had rolled in the mud, and they were making noise Noisy.

However, compared to Liu Qi's avoidance, Li Yi reached out and took out a bag from Dian Wei's arms, and went forward. Soon the children surrounded Li Yi, and Li Yi took out the food in the bag, and shared it with the children one after another. up.

Liu Qi watched the child's dirty little hand take the white snack in Li Yi's hand, touched a finger mark, and stuffed it into his mouth impatiently, and Li Yi's hands and clothes were also stained with gray stains. Feeling inexplicably frustrated, he asked Dian Wei beside him, "General Dian, is Xianghou like this every day?"

Dian Wei nodded heavily, and said carefreely: "That is, these days, my family Xianghou is really busy, and basically comes to meet these children every day."

"Why?"

Liu Qi asked again. He also knew how to be kind and win people's hearts, but Li Yi did this every day, and the objects were still a group of unborn children. Isn't this a bit too much?

Dian Wei said: "My family, the Marquis Xiang, said that the prosperity and stability of the world in the future will depend on these children. Now it is winter again. Although they work hard every day, these children will not be cold-hearted."

"Cold Heart"

While Liu Qi was muttering, Liu Qi slapped his hands in front of him, indicating that there was nothing left in his hands, but those children had no intention of leaving, and they followed Li Yi's side and refused to leave.

Li Yi didn't chase them away either, and came back with a group of children, Shi Shiran, and joked to Dian Wei: "Be careful, if you get drunk again, they might steal your job in a few years."

Dian Wei grinned, and then grinned at the children for a while to threaten, but the children had long been used to Dian Wei's fierce appearance, and immediately returned dozens of grimaces to Dian Wei.

Seeing this, everyone couldn't help laughing out loud.

Li Yi suddenly said to Liu Qi: "My lord, seeing these children, can you be considered stupid?"

Liu Qi shook his head. Although these children looked a little miserable, they couldn't be called stupid.

Li Yi said again: "The reason why the academy occupies a large area is that in addition to the children of the aristocratic family, I also plan to let these children go to school to read and write together."

Li Yi talked about the outline of the academy, and Liu Qi's expression changed again and again, and he immediately wanted to refute Li Yi's inappropriate arrangement, but seeing the dirty smiling faces around him, and Li Yi's gentle expression, All the words were blocked in my throat, and I couldn't say a word.

After talking about the academy, Li Yi looked at the sky and invited Liu Qi to have a meal in the nearest camp. Liu Qi had nothing to do with it, but when the meal was really served, he was a little dumbfounded.

It turns out that the place where Li Yi eats is the porridge shed where the people serve porridge, but the people need to line up to get food, so they just sit aside and eat.

Looking at the khaki corn porridge in the rough pottery bowl, Liu Qi really didn't want to open his mouth. Looking at Li Yi, he put down the bowl and chopsticks after taking a sip. Liu Qi was secretly relieved. Li Yi took the lead not to eat, so he also Can put the bowl down.

Unexpectedly, Li Yi wiped his mouth, took out a small bag from his arms, walked under the porridge shed, motioned the people to wait a moment, then opened the small bag, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, everyone, I have some salt here, just for rice. The porridge adds some flavor, but unfortunately, I didn’t go hunting today, otherwise there would be more meat flavor.”

"Thank you, Marquis Xiang."

"Xianghou Renyi."

The common people expressed their thanks one after another. Li Yi just smiled and stirred the corn porridge for the common people himself. He was about to go back, but an old man suddenly said, "Hanghou, wait a minute."

Hearing this, Li Yi turned around, took a look at the gray-bearded old man, bowed his body, and asked with a smile on his face, "I don't know what the old man wants to order?"

The old man bowed deeply, first bowed to Li Yi, and then said: "The old man dare not, but just want to exchange a new bowl of porridge for Xianghou."

The old man looked a little nervous and looked forward to it. He really wanted to exchange a bowl of porridge for Li Yi. Although the salt was nothing to Li Yi, for these displaced people, their mouths could taste a little salty. It felt really good.

Li Yi didn't expect that the old man was talking about this, so he laughed and said: "The old man just eats porridge, don't worry about me. After all, I have enough food and clothing, so how can I compete with the people?"
