Xiahou Yuan was defeated and fled, and this defeat did not dampen their determination to fight Liu Yu.

Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan decided to separate, Xiahoudun went to Shanyang County, and Xiahouyuan went to Rencheng County, and each organized troops to continue to resist Liu Yu's invasion, and never gave up Yanzhou.

After Liu Yu searched Puyang City, he once again sent troops to march to the surrounding county towns to stabilize Puyang's defense.

Once bitten by a snake, he was afraid of the well rope for ten years. After Liu Yu suffered such a secret loss, he ordered the troops to be extra careful after occupying the city. Even if something disturbs the people, Liu Yu can understand, it is better to be careful than to be calculated.

From then on, Liu Yu's troops must have searched every city they conquered, resulting in the people's impression of Liu Yu's army not so good. No one could stand it, and a large number of soldiers searched their homes with weapons.

Liu Yu is not worried about this, he feels that as long as the people are given a stable living environment, the people will quickly forget these unpleasant things.

After the capture of Puyang City, the members of the Chen Palace's family began to exert the powerful abilities of their land snakes.

Yanzhou was captured by Liu Yu, which means that Yanzhou can almost be regarded as taken by Liu Yu. The big families in Yanzhou have all begun to express their allegiance to Liu Yu, but their sincerity is far inferior to that of the Chen family.

The Chen family began to help Liu Yu soon after Liu Yu entered Yanzhou, and some cities were still taken by Liu Yu's soldiers without blood with the help of the Chen family. It can be said that Liu Yu was able to reach Puyang so quickly, and the Chen family's credit is huge.

After the war, Puyang looked a little dilapidated, and Liu Yu couldn't get the materials to repair it for a while. The Chen family exerted their tremendous ability, and they took the initiative to provide huge materials and manpower to Liu Yu, which was still free. Even the Chen family continued to lobby other families, hoping that they would contribute money and people to help Liu Yu and ensure that the benefits would be great in the future.

The big families are not stupid, and their eyes are poisonous. They could naturally see that Liu Yu was bound to win Yanzhou. It's just that no one in their family works under Liu Yu, if they also have clansmen like Chen Gong, how can it be the turn of the Chen family to be majestic.

At the same time, these big families have heard that Liu Yu often settles accounts with those who don't cooperate with him. Although there is no evidence to prove that Liu Yu is such a person, those who do not cooperate or offend him will not end well. With this threat, of course, the family clan knew to bow their heads in front of the butcher's knife.

Under the leadership of the Chen family, Liu Yu's family in Yanzhou gave Liu Yu great help and allowed Liu Yu to stabilize his rule in the occupied area.

Liu Yu was a little entangled at first. He originally wanted to take advantage of the war to eradicate the clans in Yanzhou, but Cao Cao's rule in Yanzhou was very strong, and without the support of these clans, it would be difficult for Liu Yu to shake Cao Cao's rule in Yanzhou.

The big families all bowed their heads to themselves and threw olive branches, if Liu Yu still wants to do something to them, then who else is willing to help him in the future. However, the family is the root cause of the beginning of this troubled era, and Liu Yu feels that he needs time to think about how to deal with this problem. Now, Liu Yu can only hold back his murderous intent.

In order to win over these families, Liu Yu specially invited these family heads to a banquet in the temporary office mansion. Before the state pastoral mansion was burned to ashes, the head of the Chen family was very considerate and contributed a luxurious courtyard of the Chen family in Puyang City to Liu Yu for rest and office.

It was said that it was a banquet, but in fact, there was nothing good to eat, so it was very simple to prepare a little barbecue, fruits and vegetables, and not good wine.

The heads of the family are not brocade clothes and jade food, delicacies from the mountains and seas. They usually don't look down on these foods, but now that Liu Yu is the biggest, they naturally understand the purpose of Liu Yu's banquet.

After everyone arrived, Liu Yu said with a smile: "It's rare for the heads of the family to take the time to come here, and this king respects a few people." Please! ”

"Thank you, Lord Wang!" All the heads of the house drank respectfully.

After three rounds of drinking, Chen Qi, the head of the Chen family, stood up and said, "We have admired the prince for a long time. It is really a blessing to see the true face of the prince today. I really want to accompany the prince every day and listen to the teachings of the prince, and this life will be in vain. ”

Chen Qi's sycophants made Liu Yu feel sick for a while.

Liu Yu learned through the "dark department" that the original heir of the head of the Chen family was Chen Gong's, but Chen Gong followed him back then, which led to the disqualification of the heir of the head of the family by the Chen family. Chen Qi has always been at odds with Chen Gong, and he also added fuel and vinegar to this matter back then. In the end, the elder of the Chen family decided to hand over the position of the head of the family to Chen Qi, and Chen Qi was finally able to trample Chen Gong under his feet.

It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, Chen Gong followed Liu Yu all the way through the thorns and thorns, assisted Liu Yu to achieve hegemony, and Chen Gong became a well-known figure in the world. Everyone in the Chen family began to regret it, they had known that they had let Chen Gong be the head of the family back then, and they were not so deferential to Chen Qi.

Therefore, the current head of the family is under great pressure from Chen Gong, who is not in harmony with Chen Gong. He knew that he and Chen Gong could not ease up, so he could only actively take refuge in Liu Yu, so as not to be retaliated against by Chen Gong in the future.

Chen Qi's estimation was wrong, Chen Gong, as a humble gentleman, would not take revenge on his own people, and Liu Yu was a typical person who had revenge, Chen Gong had followed him for many years, and he had worked hard, Liu Yu pondered this opportunity to avenge Chen Gong.

Liu Yu pretended to be very useful and smiled: "The head of the Chen family is too famous. ”

The others felt that Liu Yu enjoyed the flattery of others, and knowing this, they were all unwilling, and the whole hall was full of sycophants for a while.

Liu Yu listened to these sycophants, and really looked down on these family owners in his heart, but it was better to raise them as pigs first, and it was not too late to fatten them and then slaughter them.

"Your sincerity, this king knows in his heart. This king has the heart to show his strength in Yanzhou, but unfortunately the soldiers are tired and the food and grass are not enough, and the king is very worried. "Liu Yu is now openly asking for benefits.

Everyone secretly scolded Liu Yu for being shameless, they all gave a lot, Liu Yu still wanted it now, and they became silent.

Others may not want to give it, but Chen Qi couldn't wait for Liu Yu to speak, he said directly: "The prince doesn't need to worry too much, although the Chen family is a small family, but he is willing to sponsor the prince with a thousand stones of grain and grass to help the prince tide over the difficulties." ”

Liu Yu smiled, this Chen period is now willing to take out anything in order to please himself. Chen Qi set an example, Liu Yu also wanted to give a sweet date, and said: "This king heard that Ling Gongzi Chen Ju is full of poetry and books, he is a rare talent, this king has always been thirsty for talent, can the head of the Chen family cut his love, let Ling Gongzi serve under this king's account." ”

The benefits are here, of course Chen Qi will not object, and said: "The dog can be favored by the prince, which is a blessing that he has cultivated for eight lifetimes." ”

The other heads of the family really want to give themselves a big mouth, Liu Yu is in difficulty now, why don't you take advantage of the snow now to make a good impression, and are you ready to wait for the icing on the cake in the future?

The heads of the family knew that they could change their mistakes, and they generously helped Liu Yu more or less.

Liu Yu accepted it with a smile, but the benefits like Chen Qi were not mentioned at all.

The heads of the family can only think that they are not decisive and have wasted the opportunity. However, Liu Yu was able to accept it, proving that he would not blame, which was also a good solution.

Next, Liu Yu and the heads of the families drank freely, and it was not until night fell that everyone dispersed.

Looking at the departing head of the family alone, Liu Yu sneered: "Let you live a few more days first, you'd better be honest, otherwise don't blame this king for being ruthless." ”
