The palace where Liu Zhang recuperated was a newly built palace, not far from the side of the palace. At the beginning, Liu Zhang thought that the palace behind the mansion that his father had left behind was too old, and it would take too much effort to renovate it, so he chose to build a new palace not far from the mansion.

But the new palace did not bring Liu Zhang too much good luck, not long after moving to the palace, Liu Bei came to Sichuan, and not long after, especially after Liu Bei returned from the northern envoy, Liu Zhang was seriously ill, until now, he can only be sick in bed.

Speaking of which, it seems to be very strange, from Liu Zhang's serious illness to his being placed under house arrest by Liu Bei, why didn't anyone suspect that Liu Bei was doing it at the beginning? When Liu Zhang appointed Liu Bei as the governor of the three armies of Yizhou in public, although some people felt that it was inappropriate, no one raised objections, so Liu Bei slowly mastered the military power of Yizhou.

This kind of thing, sometimes I think, is really a bit incredible. An outsider, who even hides his identity, has no foundation in Yizhou, but in the end, he can grasp the military power.

This, I'm afraid even the civil and military forces in Yizhou didn't expect it.

In fact, it is mainly Liu Zhang's own problem, not to mention anything else, he has been weak and sick since he was a child, and he often falls ill, so now that he is sick again, no one felt strange at first, and he didn't notice anything wrong. And, the most critical thing is that the situation in Yizhou is getting more and more severe, and for a while, there is no one who can preside over the overall situation.

Back then, Liu Zhang was a little worried about the situation in Yizhou, and so was Yizhou's civil and military affairs. Therefore, Fa Zheng was sent to the Central Plains with a topographic map of Xishu. Ready to take refuge in Cao Cao, it's a pity. Cao Cao failed to obtain a topographic map of Western Shu and was brought back by Fa Zheng.

So. When Liu Bei arrived in Yizhou, the talent he showed was a big deal as soon as he made a move, and he was able to contact so many aliens and call on an army of more than two million aliens to attack the New Han Dynasty at the same time. With this alone, Liu Bei's courage has infected many civil and military forces in Yizhou, making them feel that they are no longer hesitant and have a backbone.

That's it, when Liu Zhang appointed Liu Bei as the governor of the three armies of Yizhou. When it was decided to deal with the New Han Dynasty to the end, everyone did not expect that Liu Bei would put Liu Zhang under house arrest after holding the military power.

It's a pity that Liu Zhang himself is still in a daze, and he was put under house arrest by Liu Bei, and he didn't know it.

Liu Yi waited outside Liu Zhang's bedroom for a while before Liu Bei came out to let Liu Yi in.

Liu Zhang's sickbedside. There were actually three or four black-clothed men standing in similar costumes as Liu Bei, but they were not masked. In addition, there are several maids serving tea and water.

What made Liu Yi's heart feel tight was the four men in black. Its qi is quite sharp, staring at himself coldly, this kind of qi machine. Only first-class masters can have it.

"Prince Aguidu is here?" Liu Zhang, who was on the bed, asked softly, as if he didn't have much strength to speak. As he spoke, he struggled to sit up.

The two maids hurriedly stepped forward. Carefully helped Liu Zhang to sit up.

Liu Zhang's appearance is a little different from Liu Yi's impression, but it is not like the general portraits of later generations, short and fat and obscene. On the contrary, Liu Zhang in front of him is a middle-aged man with a rather elegant appearance, with very white skin, a Chinese face, and a mustache on his lower forehead. It can be seen that when Liu Zhang was young, he should also be a handsome teenager.

Liu Yi glanced at it, and then greeted Liu Zhang as a state guest: "Prince Aguidu of the Li Yao clan, meet Lord Liu Zhoumu!" My father, the king, asked Lord Hou on his behalf. ”

"Huh...... Ahem...... Well, well, the tiger father has no dogs, I didn't expect that Prince Aguidu would be so powerful. Is your royal father well? Liu Zhang smiled and covered his mouth and coughed twice, and then the eyelids that seemed to be a little unopenable opened tried to open wide, and looked at Liu Yi.

"My father's body is tough, but, Lord Governor, do you know my father?" Liu Yi heard that Liu Zhang specially asked the king of the Li Yao clan, so he had to ask along with the meaning.

"Haha, this, it may be that Liu knows your father, but he may not know Liu. Back then, when Liu followed his father to Yizhou, he had inspected the surroundings of Yizhou and visited your Li Yao clan, but he only saw your royal father as a mountain guest. Liu Zhang may have talked about his early years, and his spirit was actually better.

"I see......"

"By the way, you Li Yao clan are now also facing the front of the New Han Army? The Metropolitan Governor has already talked to me about your Li Yao clan. That, to be honest, we are separated by thousands of miles of mountains between Sichuan and your Li Yao clan, even if we form an alliance, I'm afraid that the far water will not be able to save the near fire, and it will be difficult for us to help each other directly. But, of course, it would be a good thing if we could join forces and fight the New Han Army together. ”

"Isn't it? However, Xiao Wang felt that it was still useful. "Liu Yi now has to talk to Liu Zhang as much as possible and delay a little time as much as possible.

Originally, when he saw Liu Zhang, Liu Yi could take action immediately, first control Liu Zhang's hands and then say, if there is anything, you can take Liu Zhang out, and then slowly tell him clearly. However, there has been no movement outside, and Huang Quan has not yet sent troops, so it is naturally impossible for Liu Yi to strike first.

Also, the four men in black who were guarding Liu Zhang were not weak hands, and Liu Yi was not absolutely sure that Liu Zhang would be rescued under the noses of the four first-class masters. What's more, there is also a Mrs. Zhurong by her side, if she is left behind, then the Nanban is afraid that he will not stop there.

Therefore, Liu Yi tried his best to bring out the topic, talk more to Liu Zhang, and wait for the movement outside.

"Hmm...... Then what are you Li Yao going to do? Liu Zhang asked.

"Lord Zhou Mu, on the surface, it seems that it is indeed difficult for our Li Yao clan and Yizhou to rescue each other in time because of the geographical relationship. However, the state pastor should also know that from our Li Yao area, through the mountains, it is indeed possible to directly enter the middle of the Sichuan. If our Li Yao tribe is wiped out by the New Han Army, then it is equivalent to giving the New Han Army one more route to invade Yizhou. If we form an alliance, our Li Yao people will resolutely resist the New Han army, and at least they can defend Yizhou against the New Han army attacking from the flank. Other than that. It can also relieve the worries of Yizhou's alliance with Nanban. Liu Yi puffed out his tongue and said as if he was doing something.

"Our worries about the alliance with the Southern Barbarians? What worries do we have? Liu Bei couldn't help but interject on the side.

Leo glanced at him. Said: "Your alliance with the Southern Barbarian tribe is nothing more than to see that the barbarian army can fight well. It can block the New Han Army head-on for you. However, don't you know that the area of my Li Yao tribe, further southwest, is the barbarian region? If our Li Yao clan is wiped out, the soldiers of the New Han army can directly guide the barbarian tribe. When the time comes, the Nanban tribe will be too busy to take care of itself, where will they have the heart to fight against the New Han Army with your Yizhou side? In case the barbarian army is scattered back from Yizhou, you ask yourself if you can stop the invasion of the New Han army? ”

These. Liu Yi told Mrs. Zhurong, but Liu Zhang and the mysterious person didn't know yet.

"What...... Then, now that the New Han army has killed your Li Yao region? Liu Bei was taken aback, and asked in a somewhat hurried tone.

At this time, Liu Bei didn't care about interrupting the prince of the Li Yao clan to see Liu Zhang as soon as possible, and was sucked at the heartstrings by what Liu Yi said.

In the final analysis, Liu Bei's only reliance now is to rely on the forces that connect all parties, including aliens. Especially at this stage. Only the tribal army of the Yinan barbarians could possibly confront the New Han army head-on. What he was most worried about was that there would be another accident that would let the Nanban army he had finally invited scatter.

There was an accident in which Mrs. Zhurong was arrested. It all made Liu Bei angry, in case, the New Han army passed through the area of the Li Yao tribe. Directly killed the territory of the Southern Barbarians, forcing the Southern Barbarian army to scatter back. Then his hard work plan will be in vain. Therefore, he will never allow such a thing to happen again.

"Ahem......" Liu Zhang didn't know if he was stimulated by Liu Yi's remarks. Coughing a little violently, he opened his lips a little dry, and said weakly, "How can this be, like this...... Could it be that the heavens really want to destroy me Liu Zhang? What should I do about this? Could it be that there is only one way to return to the New Han Dynasty? ”

Ji Yu ...... Brother, don't get excited, don't be in a hurry. Liu Bei seemed to be extremely caring, stepped forward to help Liu Zhang, stroked his back and said smoothly: "Brother, things haven't come to that point yet, now, didn't the prince of the Li Yao clan come to talk to us?" If it seems, I think, we must not only form an alliance with the Southern Barbarians, but I am afraid, we must also form a tripartite alliance with the Li Yao tribe, so that we can contain or resist the invasion of the New Han Army from many aspects. ”

"Alas...... But, it's a pity that my brother's body is ......" Liu Zhang seemed to be out of breath panting.

"Brother, you better have a good rest first, and let the brother talk to Prince Aguidu about other things." Liu Bei said: "However, Prince Aguidu doesn't seem to trust his brother very much, so now let Prince Aguidu rest assured in person." ”

"Huhu ......" Liu Zhang heard this, looked up at Liu Yi and said, "It's okay...... Prince Aguidu, I'm really sorry, my body ...... Alas, don't worry, my virtuous brother Liu ......"

"Brother!"

"Huh? Oh, hehe, well, my virtuous brother can represent me Liu Zhang with full authority, no matter how big or small, you can talk to him. So, Prince Aguidu, are you relieved? Liu Zhang almost said Liu Bei's name, but was stopped by Liu Bei in time.

In fact, Liu Bei always felt that he was already a person who had died once, and he couldn't easily reveal his identity. In particular, he also wanted to wait for Yizhou's affairs, he wanted to go to Jingzhou to meet Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and other old subordinates. Let's see if we can bring them back to our account. Now, if his identity is exposed too early, it will not be of any benefit to him Liu Bei.

Liu Bei has always believed that the reason why most of the original old troops were subordinated to Liu Yi after he "died" was that he Liu Bei had never had a stable territory, and only after having a stable territory, those old generals who followed him would definitely be persuaded by him again and return to his account.

Now, he is fighting against the New Han Army, and his identity has been exposed, and now Zhang Fei, who led the army to kill, and other old troops will find out, what will they think? Therefore, Liu Bei felt that he could hide his identity, wait until he held Yizhou, met with the old department, and figured out their intentions, and then made his identity public, and officially appeared in front of the world as a prince.

And Liu Yi was a little anxious at the moment, because, unless he made a move immediately, he got Liu Zhang out of the hands of Liu Bei and the four men in black. Otherwise, this meeting will really end. Liu Zhang's body is really weak, and he also made it clear that he handed over all the affairs to this mysterious person, and Liu Yi has no way to entangle here.

"How? Prince Aguidu, did you hear it all? My brother has left it up to you to talk to you about forming an alliance. For the sake of my brother's health, why don't you ask the prince to move, and let's go to the side hall outside to talk, how about it? Liu Bei helped Liu Zhang lie down on the bed and got up to say to Liu Yi.

"This ...... Okay......"

Liu Yi replied helplessly.

However, at this moment, outside Liu Zhang's palace, there was a sudden shouting of Jin Ge Iron Horse.

The sudden shouting of killing, like a tsunami in the mountains, shook the doors and windows.

"What happened?" Liu Bei's face changed, but because he covered his face, no one saw it.

"Report! The Grand Governor, it's the other way around! It's the other way around! ”

There was a rush of footsteps, reporting loudly outside the door.

"What is it against? What's up! What a system to panic into! Liu Bei walked quickly to the door, opened the door and shouted.

"Governor of the Empire! Yes, it was Huang Quan and Liu Gui who turned around, and suddenly sent troops to surround us, saying that they wanted to see the lord, and they wanted to break in, outside, General Li Yan was holding on to them, and he had already sent someone to inform General Zhang Ren, the general of the city guard. ”

"Huang Quan! Damn it! How dare he rebel? He doesn't know that the lord is recuperating and needs to be quiet? Walk! Go out and check it out! Liu Bei beckoned, but he didn't care about Liu Yi, and walked out with the two men in black.

"Prince, you wait a moment, and come back when you go down!" After Liu Bei went out, he woke up and realized that there was still the prince of the Li Yao clan in the room, and he turned around and confessed.

At this time, Liu Bei didn't suspect anything about Liu Yi, and really regarded Liu Yi as the prince of the Li Yao clan.

Liu Yi watched Liu Bei take away the two masters, and when he saw him walking away, he immediately knew that he would not come again when the opportunity was not lost, so what were he waiting for if he didn't do it at this time?

The matter of saving Liu Zhang was also hidden from Mrs. Zhurong, so Liu Yi couldn't take care of Mrs. Zhurong anymore, just reached out and quietly untied the rope tied to Mrs. Zhurong's body, whispered that he was careful, and then suddenly attacked. (To be continued......)
