Biography[]
Liu Qi was the oldest son of Liu Biao but still grew up in the shadow of his younger brother, Liu Cong. Eventually, it became clear that Qi had fallen out of his father's favour and that Liu Cong would be Biao's heir, leaving Qi with a deep-rooted hatred of his brother. Biao appointed Qi as the administrator of Jiangxia commandery, relatively far away and out of mind. When Biao died in 208, Liu Qi did not attend his funeral.
Liu Cong took over after Biao, only to almost immediately surrender his territory to Cao Cao. In response, Liu Qi rallied what remained of Biao's Old Guard alongside Liu Bei and put up a resistance, carving the way for Liu Bei's eventual rise to power in southwestern China after the Battle of Red Cliffs. For his service, Liu Bei appointed Liu Qi as inspector of Jing province, the same position which Liu Biao held. He couldn't enjoy it for long, though, as Qi died a year later in 209.
