"Your Majesty, don't forget our edict of pardon!" Although Guo Yan couldn't hear what Liu Xie and the others in the city were saying, he saw that Liu Xie ordered someone to tie up Wang Yun.

Seeing Guo Yan begging for a pardon, Liu Xie was relieved. He stood at the head of the city and said with a smile: "The two Aiqing assisted Dong Xiang, and their hard work was high, and they made me get rid of the annihilation, and the credit was even greater." Come and say that Fang Chang, I have my own reward! ”

"Then thank you, Your Majesty!" Li and Guo were overjoyed, and they also admired Jia Xu very much in their hearts. If it weren't for Jia Xu, they might all have been killed by Wang Yun.

Soon, Wang Yun was escorted to the gate of Chang'an City. After Li Dao and Guo Yan accepted Wang Yun's gift, they immediately stationed near Chang'an and sent people to take over Chang'an. But no one knew that after Chang'an City stabilized, a team of dozens of people quietly set off from the west gate of Chang'an. After traveling less than ten miles, an army of more than 10,000 people met them and escorted them to Yangping Pass!

Hanzhong, too guarded house.

"Lord, there is news from Chang'an that Dong Zhuo was killed by Wang Yun and Lu Bu!" Guo Jia took a piece of information and handed it to Liu Zhang, but Liu Zhang didn't even look at it and threw it aside.

"I expected it a long time ago, so why care!" Liu Zhang smiled and asked, "What did Shi Ah say over there?" ”

"No news yet!" Guo Jia took out two rolls of yellow silk from his sleeve and said, "However, there are two holy decrees!" ”

"Two decrees?" Liu Zhang asked suspiciously, "What does Wang Yun want to do?" ”

"A holy decree to send Dong Zhuo's family to Beijing! The other one, let the lord return Minchan to Lu Bu! Guo Jia shrugged, he knew that Liu Zhang would not pay attention to Wang Yun at all.

Sure enough, Liu Zhang smiled and said: "Wang Yun, the one who is about to die, don't pay attention to him!" I don't think Li Dao and Guo Yan have the courage to find me yet! ”

"That Dong Zhuo's family..."

"Find a place to stay!" Liu Zhang shook his head and sighed: "Dong Zhongying, too, is a poor person!" ”

"Report!" Just when Liu Zhang and Guo Jia were discussing Dong Zhuo's death, a small school rushed into the Taishou Mansion.

"What?" Liu Zhang immediately sat up straight, no longer lazy just now.

The little colonel knelt down on one knee and clenched his fists and said: "Lord Qiqi, I just received news that General Shi A has saved the four of Empress Dowager He, and just wait for the situation in Chang'an to stabilize, and then come to Yizhou." ”

"What about Cai Yong and my three brothers?" Hearing the report, Liu Zhang's heart tightened. In history, two of Liu Zhang's three brothers died at the hands of Li Dao and Guo Yan, and Cai Yong was killed by Wang Yun! Although Liu Zhang has already made arrangements, who knows if the two little old men, Wang Yun and Cai Yong, will be troublesome.

The junior colonel said: "According to General Shi's report, Lord Cai is already on the way. This is specific information, please take a look at it! ”

After taking the cloth in the hands of the little school, Liu Zhang read it, and his heart was filled with joy and sorrow. Happily, Cai Yong and Empress Dowager He were all rescued, and by the way, they also abducted Li Ru, a replotter under Dong Zhuo. The sad thing is that none of Liu Zhang's three brothers is willing to come to Yizhou.

"Fengxiao, how can I persuade the three brothers to come to Yizhou!" Liu Zhang's face was sad, if others didn't know, they would still think that his three brothers were dead!

"Lord, it's a good thing that the three sons don't come to Yizhou, why do you have to do this?" Guo Jia looked puzzled.

You must know that the inheritance law of the Han Dynasty is generally that the eldest son inherits his father's title and 80% of the property, and the rest is divided equally among the other brothers, while Liu Zhang is the fourth, and the chance of inheriting Yizhou is really slim. Of course, if Liu Zhang's three brothers don't come to Yizhou, there will be no one to fight with him.

"I also know that if the three brothers come to Yizhou, it will definitely cause instability in Yizhou, but I can't disregard my brother's surname for the sake of property!" Liu Zhang looked helpless, in fact, he was also very conflicted in his heart.

Historically, Liu Zhang was able to inherit Yizhou Mu because his brothers were all dead. Now that Liu Zhang wants Yizhou and doesn't want his three brothers to die, how can he not be contradictory?

"This..."Guo Jia shook his head when he heard this, and he sneered: "The lord often says that I am not ruthless enough, but he is different? In the face of relatives, that ruthlessness is gone! ”

"No matter!" Liu Zhangmeng got up from his chair and said, "Let Zilong and them send troops first and patrol around Chang'an in order to pick up Shi A." Let Yan Yan come back to guard Hanzhong, let's go to Yangpingguan to have fun! ”

The 100,000-strong army had already been prepared, and Liu Zhang gave an order, and the whole army rushed to Yangping Pass. When Li Dao and Guo Yan knew about Liu Zhang's actions, they thought that he was going to attack Chang'an. However, Liu Zhang stopped when he arrived at Yangping Pass, and the troops under his command did not enter the territory of Chang'an, which made Li Dao and Guo Yan breathe a sigh of relief.

Ten days later, Yangping Pass ushered in nearly 10,000 horses, led by Shi A, and there were several carriages behind him. Seeing this, Liu Zhang hurriedly went down to greet him.

"See the lord!" Shi Ah jumped off his horse and was about to salute.

"Shia, hard work!" Liu Zhang hugged Shi Adao: "My brother, what's polite!" ”

"Thank you, my lord!" Shi Ah hugged his fists and said: "I live up to my mission!" ”

"Good!" Liu Zhang patted Shi A's shoulder and said, "I'm ready to receive the wind banquet, let's talk about it when I enter the customs!" ”

"Lord, your three brothers are here too!" Shi A whispered softly in Liu Zhang's ear: "Before I leave Chang'an, I ask them to escort me to Yangping Pass, you hurry up and meet them!" ”

"Shia, thank you!" Liu Zhang didn't say much, turned over his horse, and went to the escorted army.

"Big brother, second brother, third brother, little brother is polite!" Seeing the three brothers, Liu Zhang took the initiative to salute.

"Fourth brother!" Liu Fan, Liu Dan, and Liu Mao didn't want to see Liu Zhang, but Liu Zhang chased after them, and they couldn't leave.

"Three brothers, come back to Yizhou with me!" Liu Zhang said his thoughts straight to the point.

"Fourth brother, we know that you have good intentions, but we won't go to Yizhou!" Liu Fan looked resolute, and even Liu Dan and Liu Mao nodded on the side.

"Then go to Bingzhou, which is also the territory of the younger brother! There are three brothers guarding the territory for me, and the younger brother is also a lot more relieved! Liu Zhang stared at Liu Fan and the others, for fear that they would refuse.

"Fourth brother!" Liu Fan's eyes showed a trace of tenderness, and he laughed softly: "Now that the Han Dynasty is in chaos, the sons of the princes are all fighting among themselves, and they all hope that the other brothers will die." You have this heart, and my brothers are already very satisfied! ”

Liu Zhang said: "Indeed, the three brothers coming to Yizhou or Merging are likely to interfere with my great cause, but it is just interference!" It's not that the younger brother is boasting, or only the state or Yizhou, the younger brother can complete the great cause in his heart, it's just a matter of time or time! How can I watch my three brothers die for the sake of some family business! Even if one day, the three brothers want to compete with me for the world, I will try to save a few of them! ”

"You're crazy!" Liu Mao's mouth was very hard, but he was actually very moved in his heart.

"Fourth brother, we won't go to Yizhou, let alone Merge!" Liu Dan smiled: "From childhood to adulthood, our brothers are taking advantage of you. In troubled times, even if we can't make a contribution, we can't make it difficult for you! Just one thing I want to trouble you! ”

"Three brothers, please command!" Liu Zhang's heart was also very moved. No matter in his previous life or present life, he has only seen brothers who fight endlessly over family property, when has he ever seen such a humble and courteous brother?

Liu Dan said with a smile: "My eldest brother and I have no heirs, if we die and have no heirs, and you have many heirs, just give us one of them, don't cut me off from my eldest brother!" ”

"Second brother!" Liu Zhang's eyes wept and said, "Little brother remember!" ”

"Fourth brother, take care, let's go! When you go to the grave for your mother, don't forget to put incense on your mother's side for us. Liu Fan and the others arched their hands to Liu Zhang, and they were about to leave.

"The little brother won't forget, take care of the three brothers!" Liu Zhang knew that he couldn't keep Liu Fan and the others, so he didn't say more.

"Take care!" Liu Fan and the three of them bowed their hands to Liu Zhang again, and then turned to leave.

Suddenly, Liu Zhang remembered something, and he yelled: "Brother, when you are in trouble, inform your younger brother, if you really don't want to come to Yizhou, you can go to Cao Ying!" ”

"Got it!" Liu Fan and the others didn't look back, but just waved their hands with their backs to Liu Zhang.

Liu Zhang rode on the horse, looked at the backs of Liu Fan and the others, and couldn't help muttering: "Brothers, take care!" ”

"Uncle Xiaohuang!" Just when Liu Zhang was stunned, a crisp female voice remembered behind him. Liu Zhang looked back and saw that it was Princess Wannian.

"It turned out to be our family's little ten thousand years, and now they have grown so tall?" Pulling Princess Wannian on the horse, Liu Zhang touched her head and said, "There is nothing wrong in Chang'an!" ”

"Nope!" Princess Wannian smiled and said, "With the protection of the little imperial uncle, even the Demon King Dong is afraid!" ”

Princess Wannian told Liu Zhang that Dong Zhuo almost violated her, and Liu Zhang said helplessly: "This Dong Zhongying, I really don't know what to say about him!" That's right! Are your queen mother and royal brother okay? ”

"Good!" Princess Wannian smiled: "Of course, if we don't have the prestige of the little imperial uncle, we won't be better!" ”

"Would you like to take me to see your mother?" Liu Zhang touched the head of Princess Wannian with pity, a little girl, almost violated, what a thrill, and it was a shame that she could recover.

"Okay!" Princess Wannian pointed to a carriage lane: "The queen mother and the royal brother are in that car!" ”

Liu Zhang immediately rode to the side of the car and said, "I've seen the Queen Mother and King Hongnong!" ”

There was silence in the carriage for a long time, and a familiar female voice sounded slowly. I only heard the Empress Dowager He say: "Brother Zhang, Wang Yun has announced that Empress Dowager He, King Hongnong, and Princess Wannian were killed by Dong Zhuoyu. From today on, there is no longer any queen mother, king Hongnong, and no princess of Wannian. I am He Lingsi, my son's name is Liu Bian, and my daughter's name is Liu Jie! ”

"Little brother knows!" Liu Zhang understood that Empress Dowager He had seen too much of what happened to Liu Xie, and she didn't want her son to end up like this.

Seeing Liu Zhang like this, Empress Dowager He also breathed a sigh of relief. Although she has a lot of feelings for Liu Zhang, as a mother, she loves her children very much, and she doesn't want Liu Bian to be treated as a puppet like Liu Xie.

"Imperial sister-in-law, let's enter the customs!" Liu Zhang said with a smile: "The little brother has prepared a reception banquet for you in the Guannei, take a rest today, and leave for Chengdu tomorrow." ”

"Brother Yizhang!" He Lingsi smiled lightly: "However, Brother Zhang, be careful. Your father-in-law has a big opinion of you! ”

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, my father-in-law has someone to deal with!" It turned out that Liu Zhang was not ready to leave Cai Yong behind. After entering the customs, Liu Zhang ordered Cai Yong to be sent to Hanzhong overnight, and Cai Yan was waiting in Hanzhong!
