Xishu, Chengdu.

After a sudden mutiny, the whole city was depressed, the blood was not dry, and the shouts of fierce battle seemed to be unable to dissipate for a long time, and the people in the city, every household, closed their doors.

The once thriving markets and streets are now closed to shops, and the streets and alleys are deserted.

Occasionally, a team of patrolling soldiers will walk by, maintaining order in Chengdu today, and the heavy footsteps are not reassuring, but a little intimidating.

Liu Bei is a traitor, this is the voice of most of the people in Chengdu.

Even if Liu Bei is victorious now, he can't get rid of the skin of this traitor, because he gathered troops to attack the royal city and killed the ancestor Liu Zhang, and the people of Chengdu just dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak.

No matter how unpopular Liu Zhang is, Liu Bei's rebellion is a fact, and in the eyes of many readers, he is a thief.

This is the righteousness in the hearts of readers, so after Liu Bei's mutiny, the government and the opposition resigned close to Yicheng, don't underestimate this success, it is enough to paralyze the government.

However, this situation, on August 1, Liu Bei supported Liu Zhang's eldest son, Liu Xun, who was only six years old, after ascending the throne, there were some changes, at least now no one directly questioned Liu Bei.

The people are basically pure, they don't have too much thought, Liu Bei hijacked Liu Zhang's cavalry in the name of Huang Quan, beheaded Huang Quan, and lied that Liu Zhang was killed by Huang Quan, not many people believe this, but if he doesn't ascend the throne directly, then they are not traitors who tear their faces.

As for the affairs of the court, the people will not think too much about it first, and they will not deliberately think about whether Liu Xun ascended the throne and whether the power fell into Liu Bei's hands.

In their hearts, as long as Liu Xun sits on the throne, he is the rightful king of Shu. The Shu State is still the Shu State that was defeated by the ancestors, not the Shu State that Liu Bei rebelled.

Therefore, after Liu Xun succeeded to the throne, the surging public sentiment in Chengdu was gradually suppressed, and even if Liu Bei was not accepted, he began to quiet down a little.

Palace of the King of Shu.

In the past, the blood of the Dongzhou soldiers and the Yue cavalry battalion seemed to stain this palace red.

In a large hall. Although Liu Bei was wearing the official robe of an auxiliary minister, he went to sit on the coveted throne, but his expression was a little tired, and he did not have a trace of joy, but became more and more heavy.

Under the main hall, Liu Bei's current henchmen and generals gathered together, and they were more excited one by one, after all, Liu Bei now controls the power of Shu State.

"Yuanlong. How's it going? ”

"Lord, the Jinyi Guard is too cunning, and the strongholds I detect are empty!" Chen Deng said gloomily.

"Humph!"

Liu Bei snorted coldly and said, "These rats, a certain family wants to search for them all over the city, and they must be pulled out and killed without leaving a piece of armor!" ”

In the past, Jin Yiwei's assassination of himself had aroused his disgust, and now Liu Zhang was killed in the deep palace. In Liu Bei's view, it was a great shame.

Liu Zhang died. The hat of killing the lord was finally buckled on his head, even if he supported Liu Xun now, he could only partially stabilize the situation.

Except for Ba County and Shu County, it is estimated that the county guards everywhere will not listen to him, not for three or five years. He was unable to erect the government of Shu and achieve the unification of Shu.

"Lord, since the matter has happened, Jinyi Wei will let it go first, these rats are not easy to catch!"

Zhuge Liang said in a deep voice: "And we." Today's priority is to take Zhang Ren, not to solve Zhang Ren, the situation in Chengdu has always been unstable, and Zhang Ren can send troops to Chengdu at any time! ”

"This is very true, Zhang Ren is pressed by more than 100,000 male soldiers in the western border, and a certain family can't eat or sleep!"

Liu Bei clenched his fists and said in a low voice: "But now he thinks that he killed Liu Zhang, and he doesn't want to talk to us at all, how can it be?" ”

Zhang Ren's soldiers and horses are not far from Chengdu, at most three or five days away, you can enter Chengdu, after the bloody battle in Chengdu, he has little troops left, and it is impossible to fight against hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses.

"King, the most important thing now is that the State of Wu has sent troops, Lu Meng's tens of thousands of troops are pressing Peicheng, and the soldiers and horses of the second and third generals can't spare their hands at all, once he attacks the city, we are in danger!"

Chen Deng added in a low voice.

"Damn Wu Guo, at this time, he actually came to balance the forces of a certain family!"

Liu Bei spat and said fiercely: "One day, a certain family will set foot in Jinling City!" ”

If it weren't for Wu Guo's sudden dispatch of troops, he would have given up Peicheng desperately, and he would have asked Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to join Chengdu, without them, he would not be down-to-earth.

However, now, tens of thousands of troops in Lü Meng are eyeing each other, and there are still cavalry, if they retreat, it is possible that the entire army will be annihilated, and they cannot retreat at all.

"Isn't it possible that we have to give up Chengdu?"

Wei Yan said coldly: "My lord, the last general suggested that General Pang Xi be sent back to Chengdu to refuse Zhang Ren!" ”

Pang Xi's tens of thousands of elite Shu troops were guarding the front line in Hanzhong, although Pang Xi had already taken refuge in Liu Bei, but in this mutiny, the government soldiers in the mansion also contributed.

His soldiers and horses are still stationed in the north.

"King, my subordinates don't look at it like this, General Pang Xi can't be mobilized!" Zhuge Liang objected.

If Pang Xi is transferred back, the northern border will be empty, which is not good for Shu, you must know that Zhang Lu is also eyeing Shu.

"Kong Ming, but there are no Pang Xi's soldiers and horses, what are we going to fight with Zhang Ren?" Liu Bei frowned, he didn't know the result of Pang Xi's transfer, but if he couldn't stop Zhang Ren, everything would be empty.

"Lord, this battle is not necessary, in fact, it can still be discussed?"

"What does Kong Ming mean, Zhang Ren doesn't necessarily want to fight with us too?" Liu Bei's eyes lit up.

"Actually, if Zhang Ren doesn't attack us, he has already said that he intends to talk!"

When Zhuge Liang heard this, he shook his head and groaned for a while, before he said to Liu Bei: "Our support for Liu Xun to succeed to the throne is our goodwill, as long as he is willing to talk, we can still talk about peace!" ”

"Kong Ming, but Zhang Ren's attitude is so tough now, how can he talk about it?" Liu Bei groaned for a while, and patted his forehead: "This person can be regarded as loyal to Liu Zhang, such a temperament, it's hard to talk about!" ”

"Zhang Ren's posture is high, and he wants to take the lead in negotiations!"

Zhuge Liang reminded Liu Bei: "Lord, it is true that Zhang Ren is loyal to Liu Zhang. But Liu Zhang is dead, he can't look at Liu Zhang's bloodline, Liu Xun is also dead, so he will choose to take a step back! ”

"Got it!"

Liu Bei's eyes lit up slightly, and Zhang Ren still cared about Liu Zhang's bloodline. I put Liu Xun on the throne, this move is the right move, but there is still a bit of a burden: "Kong Ming, who do you think we should send to talk now?" ”

"Lord, Zhang Ren is not an ordinary person, he is deciding, and it will be the name of the future of Shu. A trip in person is also! Zhuge Liang said in a deep voice.

"No!"

When Liu Bei heard this, he hurriedly shook his head and said: "First, Chengdu City is now chaotic in government affairs, and it will not be possible unless you are in charge, and second, a certain family does not believe Zhang Ren, if he turns his face, you will not be in danger." Thou shalt not go! ”

Now the most powerful person around him is definitely not the few people who lead the troops, but Zhuge Liang. Since Jingzhou, Zhuge Liang has always advised him.

The most important thing is that he doesn't have many talents in government affairs, Prime Minister Huang Quan was killed by him, and most of the local families are against him. Although he supported Liu Xun to ascend the throne, people's hearts were still unstable.

Zhuge Liang is the only pillar of his ability to handle state affairs, Chen Deng has been radicalized since his family died, and he has been dealing with the secret agents around Liu Bei. For government affairs, he rarely makes a move.

"Lord, this trip, my subordinates are willing to do it!"

At this time, a man in a green robe walked out and asked for his life.

Sun Qian, a talent who has gradually fallen silent over the years, he and Jian Yong were the first to take refuge in Liu Bei, from Xuzhou to Jingzhou, but unfortunately, because of the assassination of Sun Quan, he was retaliated by Jinyiwei, Jian Yong died, and he was also seriously injured, not only after recuperating for a year, but also with an extra scar on his face, he has been relatively silent.

"Gongyou?"

Liu Bei glanced at this subordinate who had followed him for many years, he was a little unbearable, this line of work was extremely dangerous, and between him and Zhang Ren, he was now in a situation of talking and fighting.

If you are not careful, the person who went to negotiate will not be able to come back.

"Lord, I have been resting for a long time, and I should serve my lord!" Sun Qian said firmly: "Qian will definitely do his best to persuade Zhang Ren to surrender!" ”

"Good!"

Liu Bei pondered for a while, and finally nodded, this time, someone always has to leave: "A certain gives you a secret order, as long as you can convince Zhang Ren, you can talk about anything!" ”

He has now grasped the righteousness of the imperial court, as long as Zhang Ren is not big and does not lose both, he can talk about anything, including the throne of Shu State.

"My subordinates understand!"

Sun Gan nodded, the current situation, he also knew very well in his heart that the only thing that could have an impact on Liu Bei was Zhang Ren's soldiers and horses, and convincing Zhang Ren was more important than anything else.

"Lord, Zhao Wei's side, how do you reply?"

Zhuge Liang asked suddenly.

"Doesn't he want the position of prime minister?" Liu Bei smiled coldly and said: "Give it to him, announce his return to Chengdu, and appoint him as the prime minister of Shu, and the Zhao family is still needed to stabilize the Bashu family, but Kong Ming, you are the chief historian in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and you will empty him!" ”

"Subordinates understood!"

Zhuge Liang smiled yin, Huang Quan can still be regarded as an opponent, Zhao Wei, a little far behind.

"Is there an anomaly over there?" Liu Bei continued to ask.

"Nope!"

Chen Deng replied: "Our people are watching Yan Yan's soldiers and horses closely, and he has not moved!" ”

"Good!" Liu Bei breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Kong Ming, the Prime Minister's Mansion has issued an order, in the name of the new king, to crown Yan Yan as the former general, the Marquis of Guannei, and the Marquis of Baling!" ”

Except for Zhang Ren, Yan Yan is the only person who worries Liu Bei now, this side is a fierce general, he must stabilize it first.

"No!" Zhuge Liang nodded.

"Lord, lord!" At this time, a guard outside broke in in a hurry.

"So-and-so is in deliberations, you are so anxious, what's the matter?"

Liu Bei looked at it, a little displeased, and his eyes were slightly cold.

"My lord, my wife is born!" The guard said anxiously: "It's a son!" ”

"Son? Haha, good! ”

Liu Bei was overjoyed, laughed, and said, "Great, a certain family finally has a queen!" ”

He was bumpy for half his life, and regarded his brothers as guards, and his wives as clothes, so his wives and concubines were captured many times, and perhaps because of this, he has never had an heir.

In this regard, he somewhat regretted it.

His wife is still Gan's, Xuzhou was taken that year, and his wife and children were captured by Lu Bu, but Lu Bu was a little arrogant and did not make a fuss about his wife and concubine, after he stood firm in Jingzhou, Lu Bu sent his wife and concubine back.

After entering Chengdu, his wife Gan was pregnant, and now he has just gotten out of Chengdu, and at this time he has a son, which is a moment of peace of mind for this person.

"Congratulations to my lord, there is a successor."

"Congratulations to my lord, there is a successor."

All the generals were excited, bowed their heads one after another, and congratulated loudly.

Liu Bei is now considered a prince, the real ruler of Shu, the heir is naturally very important, he has an heir, and the soldiers below will feel at ease.

"Rejoice, rejoice!"

Liu Bei was very excited, laughed a few times, strode out of the main hall, and said as he walked: "You will go with a certain family and see how this unicorn is doing!" (To be continued......)
