Chapter 392: The Return of the Brothers

Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!

The news that Liu Xiu and Yin Lihua were about to get married also shocked Wancheng a little. Now that many people are waiting, Liu Xiu has been killed, can Liu Xiu last long? People feel that Liu Xiu is not far from death.

Unexpectedly, after Liu Xiu returned to Wancheng, not only did he survive well, but now there is news that he is going to marry Yin Lihua, which has to be surprising.

In addition, Liu Xiu has now lost power, and it is also surprising that the Yin family can still agree to this marriage and is willing to marry Yin Lihua to Liu Xiu.

Soon after the news of the marriage spread, Liu Ci and Liu Xin's uncle and nephew came to visit Liu Xiu. Don't look at Liu Ci as an elder, but he has always had a virtue with Liu Ji, a fiery temper, whatever he thinks in his heart, he says what he says, and he never thinks about it.

After seeing Liu Xiu, Liu Ci didn't give him a good face, his old face was gloomy, and he said in a deep voice: "Ah Xiu, I heard that you are going to marry the young lady of the Yin family?" ”

Liu Xiu nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, Uncle Ci!" ”

Liu Ci's face became more and more ugly, and he waved his hand and said, "Don't call me that, I don't have a nephew like you!" Bosheng's bones are not cold, you are going to get married now? In your heart, has there ever been a big brother like Bosheng? ”

Liu Xin grinned secretly, even as a bystander, he felt that his uncle's words were too ugly.

He secretly pulled down Liu Ci's sleeve, and the latter flicked his arm mercilessly, and shouted angrily: "Don't drag me, am I not right?" ”

Back then, Liu Xin's father, Liu Xian, was killed, and Liu Ci was furious, killed the official's family, and then ran away with Liu Xin.

During their exile, their uncle and nephew lived a very hard life. Liu Xinben is also a master who is not afraid of the sky and the earth, but he respects his uncle from the bottom of his heart.

Liu Ci reprimanded Liu Xin, who didn't even dare to say anything, shrunk his neck, and looked at Liu Xiu helplessly, with an expression of 'Ah Xiu, I can't help you'.

The eldest brother's bones are not cold, but he wants to get married at this time, Liu Xiu's heart is dripping blood, but there is no way, in order to dispel the suspicion and murderous intent of the enemies, he can only grit his teeth and do so.

He lowered his head and whispered: "Lihua and I are in love with each other and have admired each other for a long time......

Before he finished speaking, Liu Ci interrupted angrily: "Don't tell me this!" Let me ask you, are you worthy of your dead eldest brother when you are married now? Liu Xiu's head hung lower, and he didn't say a word. There are some things he can say to the Yin family, but he can't say them to Liu Ci. Liu Ci has always been open-mouthed and speaks without thinking, if he tells him the truth, he may leak it out at some point, and when the time comes

, his marriage will not only not be able to dispel the other party's jealousy and murderous intentions, but will also arouse the other party's vigilance even more, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Seeing that Liu Xiu looked like he had obviously done something wrong and still refused to admit his mistake, Liu Ci was even more angry, raised his hand and pointed at Liu Xiu's nose, and said angrily: "You are so disappointing!" With that, he flicked the sleeve of his robe and turned and walked out.

Liu Xin subconsciously shouted: "Uncle! ”

Liu Ci didn't even look back. Liu Xin sighed and smiled bitterly at Liu Xiu: "Ah Xiu, uncle has such a temper, although what he says is ugly, there is no malice, don't take it to heart." ”

How could Liu Xiu not understand Liu Ci's temper, knife mouth, and tofu heart, among the Liu clansmen, he is definitely a person with a strong sense of family. He nodded and said, "I know, I understand." ”

Seeing that Liu Xiu really didn't mean to hold a grudge against his uncle, Liu Xin breathed a sigh of relief, and he said happily: "Ah Xiu, I'll give you a good message in advance!" As he spoke, he arched his hand and bowed to the ground.

Liu Xiu hurriedly returned the salute and said, "Brother Xin is polite." ”

"Alright, I need to hurry up and chase my uncle."

Liu Xiu said: "Brother Xin help me persuade Uncle Ci, don't let Uncle Ci get angry." ”

Liu Xin smiled: "Don't worry, Ah Xiu, I know!" ”

When Liu Xin also left, Liu Xiu took a deep breath, stood up, and walked quickly towards the back garden. When he arrived at the open space in the garden, Liu Xiu pulled out the Chixiao Sword under his ribs and danced the sword almost wildly.

Now he needs to vent, and if he doesn't vent again, he feels like his body is about to be squashed by invisible pressure.

I don't know how long it took, when Liu Xiu heard the footsteps, he stopped, his head and body were already covered with sweat, and his clothes were soaked with sweat.

He snorted and panted, turned his head to look, and saw that the person who came over was Xu Xiling.

Liu Xiu put the sword into the sheath, took the handkerchief handed over by Xu Xiling, and wiped the sweat beads on his face. Xu Xiling said: "My lord, my subordinates have just received a letter from my senior sister. ”

He paused as he wiped his sweat, then continued to wipe and asked, "What did Che Ying say in the letter?" ”

Xu Xiling whispered: "Chang'an has been in chaos, some people have fled, and some people have even rebelled. ”

If the eldest brother is still there, Liu Xiu will be very happy when he hears the news, and he will actively plan how to help the eldest brother achieve great things.

But now that the eldest brother is no more, the rivers and mountains he has laid are all Liu Xuan's, and he has nothing to do with him Liu Xiu.

"Got it." Liu Xiu wiped the beads of sweat from her face, took a hand towel, and walked towards the study.

Xu Xiling followed him and continued: "There is news from Brother Cho that Shen Tujian and Li Songbu have now gone north from Wuguan and are approaching Chang'an. Wang Kuang's troops had already arrived in Luoyang and were commanding a large army to launch a strong attack on Luoyang. "After Liu Xiu returned to Wancheng, the brothers under his command did not come back, but were separated, like Ma Wu and Cho Period, who were transferred to Wang Chang's command, Deng Yu was transferred to Wang Kuang's command, Feng Yi, Fu Jun and even Xi Zun, Wang Ba and others,

They were all transferred to various counties in Yingchuan, either as county magistrates, or as county officials, and even Jia Fu was transferred to Liu Jia's account.

Although these people are scattered in the north and south of the world, their loyalty to Liu Xiu has not diminished, such as the Cho period, because it is difficult to separate, they simply resigned and continued to be in charge of Liu Xiu's intelligence system.

Regarding the situation in various places, as well as the battle reports of the Han army in the front, Choshi will get the corresponding news in time, and then send someone to Liu Xiu's mansion.

To support such a large intelligence system, it is natural to invest a lot of money.

Here I have to mention the wealth left by Liu Xiu to Liu Xiu, which not only allows Liu Xiu to have a lot of money to buy off Cao Jing and Zhao Meng, but also allows the intelligence organization in Liu Xiu's hands to be maintained.

Xu Xiling continued: "Taishi Wang Kuang, the national general Wai Zhang, guarding Luoyang, there are more than 100,000 soldiers under his command, and Wang Kuang's department, which has only 100,000 people, is afraid it will not be easy to capture Luoyang. ”

Speaking of which, the Han army's attack on Luoyang is also quite interesting, and in other words, this battle is Wang Kuang fighting Wang Kuang.

Wang Kuang, the leader of the Green Forest Army, and Wang Kuang, the Taishi, happened to have the same name, the battle of Luoyang was the war between Wang Kuang and Wang Kuang, no matter which side won and which side lost, the winner was Wang Kuang after all, and the loser was Wang Kuang.

Liu Xiu returned to the study, sat down, and said casually: "I'm afraid, before Wang Kuang takes Luoyang, Chang'an will be lost first." ”

With the current chaotic situation in Chang'an, as long as Shen Tujian and Li Song lead their troops to the city, Chang'an will be even more chaotic, and there will be more people who will raise troops to make rebellion.

Xu Xiling said thoughtfully: "If Chang'an is captured first, and Wang Mang is beheaded by Shen Tujian and Li Song, the defenders of Luoyang will definitely have no intention of fighting and will definitely be defeated." ”

Liu Xiu nodded, with a lack of interest on her face. Now he is not interested in any of this. When the Xinmang court falls, it must be replaced by the first court, and in this way, his enemies will only become bigger and stronger.

Xu Xiling glanced at Liu Xiu, who closed her eyes and recuperated, and sighed secretly in her heart, since Liu Xiu's death, she felt that Liu Xiu was a lot more decadent, and she didn't seem to be interested in anything.

Just when Xu Xiling was secretly sighing, the housekeeper Liu Quan walked in from outside, and when he saw Liu Xiu, he had a smile on his face and said, "Childe." ”

Liu Xiu raised her eyes, looked at Liu Quan, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Liu Quan handed Liu Xiu a bamboo slip and said, "Childe, this is the list of bride price drawn up by the villain, please take a look at it." ”

Liu Xiu hesitated for a moment, took the bamboo slip, opened it and looked at it carefully.

Liu Quanbei's bride price is varied, and all of them are very valuable, which can be called an extremely valuable bride price.

Liu Xiu looked at it from beginning to end and said, "It's still a little less." ”

Liu Quan swallowed his saliva and said cautiously: "Lord, this bride price has been ...... It's enough to make the Yin family's face shine! ”

With Liu Xiu's current identity and embarrassing situation, marrying a young lady from the Yin family is indeed considered to be a marriage. For this reason, Liu Quan also drew up this heavy bride price after careful consideration, but he didn't expect that the son was still too little.

Liu Xiu asked, "Is the money in the house not enough?" ”

"Still rich."

"Then add more. If the money in our house is kept until the end, it may fall into anyone's hands! ”

Now that Liu Xiu himself is in danger, where can he care about these things outside his body? If he is killed one day, it is better to give it to the Yin family now than to divide the money by Liu Xuan and Wang Kuang.

Hearing his words, Xu Xiling and Liu Quan were both sour-hearted, and even Long Yuan and the others, who were guarding outside the study, all showed sadness.

Three days later, Yin Lihua, accompanied by her father Yin Lu and her brothers Yin Zhi and Yin Xing, came to Wancheng, and the family temporarily lived in Li Tong's Zhuangzi outside Wancheng.

On the same day, Zhu You, Feng Yi, and Wang Ba also came to Wancheng. Seeing the three of them, Liu Xiu was quite surprised and asked, "Ayu, Gongsun, Yuanbo, why did you come to Wancheng?" ”

Zhu You grinned and said, "Lord, all three of us have resigned!" ”

"Huh?"

"In the future, we will stay in Wancheng and follow the lord!" Zhu You said with a grin. Liu Xiu frowned, they had discussed this issue before, rather than everyone staying by his side and having nothing to do, it was better to follow Liu Xuan's arrangement and scatter everywhere, although he might not be able to get much official position, but at least there was something to do

, which is conducive to secretly accumulating strength, and when the opportunity is ripe, it will make a comeback. Seeing Liu Xiu frowning, Zhu You hurriedly explained: "Lord, the official positions we got were all in the county as county officials, it was really difficult to make a difference, and then I discussed with Gongsun and Yuan Boyi, instead of suffering that in the county, it is better to simply resign.

Concentrate on following the lord in the future! ”

Feng Yi also nodded his head. Wang Ba said indignantly: "Zhong Xian and Gongsun at least have an official to do, lord, I was directly dismissed by them." ”

When Liu Xiu heard this, she almost couldn't hold back her laughter, muttering in her heart, why are you so miserable! Zhu You glanced at Wang Ba and helped him explain: "Just Yuanbo's broken mouth, who catches who is with whom, and can still speak well, when he goes to be a county official, he dares to work against the county order and the county lieutenant, and in the end he was only dismissed, but he saved his head, which is already good." is also here in the lord's place, no one will worry about Uncle Yuan, and his life is comfortable. ”
