The news of Liu Dai's death was like a big stone thrown into the already chaotic big pond, which immediately made the situation in the Kanto region even more chaotic and even more chaotic.

No one can see the development of the situation through so many different news, not even Guo Jia, not to mention Qingzhou Mu Kongrong, Xuzhou Mu Taoqian, Yuzhou Mu Yuan Shu, Qidu Lieutenant Sun Jian and others.

Qingzhou Mu Kongrong and Xuzhou Mu Taoqian's reaction was greatly relieved, and Yuzhou Mu Yuanshu took his eyes off the Xuzhou counties and bet on the Yanzhou counties, even Taishan County and Dongjun, he did not let go, and seriously considered whether it was possible to recruit Ying Shao and Cao Cao.

A military situation that could be followed by made him greatly surprised, Liu Bei was too guarded by the plains, and he abandoned the plains and attacked Puyang, and now he is leading the army to Chenliu.

Everyone has their own thoughts, and the most lost person in them is tantamount to Liu Xuan, the younger brother of Yanzhou Mu Liu Dai. In the Linyi Mansion, Liu Miao walked around in the study, difficult to decide.

When sending troops to Qing and Xu Erzhou, Liu Dai adopted the words of Cao Cao and Liu Jingzong, and personally led the main army to attack Qingzhou from the west road.

Although in Yanzhou, his status is respected, but in fact, he has no real power, except for more than 100 guards, there is nothing else, it can be said that everything he has is given by his brother.

Now that his brother Liu Dai is dead, his position is a little embarrassing, and the relationship with the ministers of the counties and counties is even more embarrassing.

When Ying Shao led a large army to besiege Kaiyang City in Langxi County, where Tao Qian was located, he should stay in Linyi, which is close to Taishan County, at the request of Shao, to supervise the transportation of grain and grass. He himself knew that this was Ying Shao's reluctance for him to participate in the battle against Tao Qian.

For two or three days, he was thinking about a question, where should he go?

The news of his brother Liu Dai's death, he only learned about it from the time Liu Jingzong sent someone to report it to Pegasus, and before that, he received a letter from Cheng Yu, which was a little vague, and now he wants to come. I'm afraid that he knew about his brother earlier, or he guessed it based on clues.

In the letter, Cheng Yu said very vaguely, but Liu Miao understood that Yanzhou was not a place for him to stay for a long time. It's a good idea to plan ahead.

Alas!

Liu Miao sighed, and now he understands. Cheng Yu's letter. It is clearly an allusion to today's situation, as long as his brother Liu Dai is still in charge of Yanzhou, his younger brother, no matter how he is not reused, there is no reason to leave Yanzhou.

Now, what bothers him the most is. Under his account, no one can negotiate, whether it is Cheng Yu or Changshi Liu Jingzong. The reason why he was able to send someone here was because of his personal relationship with the two of them, otherwise, until this moment, I am afraid that he would still know nothing about his brother's death.

What's even more strange is that the messenger sent by Taishan Taishou Yingshao has been waiting in Linyi, only saying that he is on the order of Taishou Yingshao, and respectfully invites him to go to the place where the army is located to discuss the matter of attacking Kaiyang, without mentioning anything else.

Liu Miao believes that Ying Shao must have received the news of the death of his brother Liu Dai, but he still acted like this, which is quite interesting.

After pondering for two whole hours, Liu Miao finally decided to follow the advice of Cheng Yu and Liu Jingzong and not go to the place where the Shao army was to take risks.

Since he had made up his mind, Liu Miao no longer hesitated, and summoned Zhang Ying and Fan Neng, the commanders of the guards, to plot for more than half an hour before they dispersed.

Early the next morning, when the sky was still dark, Liu Miao immediately went on the road with the messenger sent by Ying Shao, and went out of the city for more than ten miles.

As soon as the messenger stepped into the tent, before Liu Miao could join him, Zhang Ying and Fan Neng immediately twisted him from the left and right, covered his mouth with sackcloth, and twisted him to kneel in front of Liu Xuan.

Suddenly encountered, the messenger's face turned pale, and under Liu Xuan's silent gaze, he was covered in chaff and trembled.

This kind of behavior confirmed what Liu Miao thought, and he should send someone to invite him over, which is definitely uneasy and kind.

At this time, Liu Xuan, because he knew it in his heart, seemed very determined, and he was calmly drinking tea there, putting down the tea cup slowly and methodically, and then asked the messenger: "Ying Taishou sent you here, but there is another secret order?" ”

The messenger's mouth was covered by the stinking linen cloth, if Fan on the side moved the linen cloth in his hand slightly upward, he could cover the messenger's mouth and nose to death, so there was no doubt, after a while, the messenger would not breathe well, and even suffocate here.

He shook his head at first, but when Fan Neng's right hand tightened and the sackcloth in his hand moved up slightly, the messenger immediately nodded his head in horror and trembled all over.

Liu Xuan's eyes were cold, he stared at the messenger for a while, and signaled to Zhang Ying and Fan Neng, the two of them relaxed their hands slightly, but the linen cloth in their hands was still less than three inches away from the messenger's mouth and nose, and they could be covered again at any time, obviously to prevent the messenger from calling loudly.

"What secret order?"

Liu Xuan's voice was cold, and the messenger gasped for breath and replied: "Yes, yes, if there is an adult, there is, there is a change, just, just ......."

"Kill on the spot?!"

Liu Xuan interrupted the messenger's intermittent words and gave him the answer.

The messenger was stunned for a while, nodded, and signaled that what Liu Miao said was true.

Now that the messenger has been asked to speak, the rest of the things are very easy to do, under the coercion of Zhang Ying and Fan Neng, the messenger is completely ready to answer questions, Liu Xuan interrogated for a while, and he also figured out what Ying Shao wanted to do.

Sure enough, as he expected, Ying Shao sent a messenger after receiving the news of his brother's death, of course, not to support him, but to preemptively control him in his hands, and once again use it as a bargaining chip to win the support of other counties in Yanzhou.

To put it bluntly, Ying Shao had a wishful idea, in the name of Liu Xuan, to replace Liu Dai and sit on the position of Yanzhou Mu, and Liu Miao had no doubt that once Ying Shao sat on the throne of Yanzhou Mu as he wished, the final outcome of his banner would definitely disappear quietly in the eyes of the world.

After interrogating clearly and muttering for a while, Liu Miao made a decision, whispered a few words to Zhang Ying and Fan Neng, Zhang Ying went out of the tent, and Fan Neng stayed in the tent.

Not long after, Zhang Ying entered the account, nodded at Liu Xuan, and signaled that everything was in order.

Liu Miao stood up, came to the messenger's side, and said softly, "Do you know what to do?" ”

The messenger nodded busily, in fact, he didn't even know what Liu Miao wanted him to do, and how did he know what to do.

Before he could finish his head, the messenger was struck in the back of the head, and he threw himself forward, fainting to death. After a long time, when he woke up and turned around, the sun was still shining, but Liu Miao and his party were nowhere to be seen.

As Cheng Yu said in the letter, although Liu Xuan's status in Yanzhou is respected, but there is no place to stand, to this day, he will not go, and when, is to start from Linyi, he led his account to guard a hundred people, through Taishan County, into Yuzhou Lu State, and then into Rencheng State, until entering Shanyang County, he dared to reveal his identity, to meet Shanyang Taishou Liu Hong, with the help of Liu Hong, went to Jiyin County, and returned to Chenliu.

What he saw and heard along the way, Liu Miao could be regarded as seeing how chaotic the situation in Yanzhou had become, and everywhere he passed, people were panicked and rumors were spreading.

Without the banner of his brother Liu Dai, all the states and counties in Yanzhou will immediately go their own way, Liu Miao believes that not to mention that no one can appoint a Yanzhou pastor now, even if there is, the states and counties will not respect the order and do their own thing.

And the ambitionists among them, such as Taishan Taishou Ying Shao, and Dongjun Taishou Cao Cao, are actively attacking at this time, and those who are not strong can only sit and watch the changes.

Ying Shao's army was besieging Xuzhou Langxie County to govern Kaiyang, eager to return to the army, but was sent by Tao Qian to attack, and was attacked by the reinforcements sent by Qingzhou Kong Rong to command the general Tai Shici, and returned with heavy losses.

Cao Cao, the Taishou of Dongjun, sent the general Cao Hong to lead the army to attack Jiyin and fight with Zhang Pet's army, while Chen Qi, the minister of Jibei and Ji Zan of Dongping, directly responded to Cao Cao and called on other states and counties to serve Cao Cao as the pastor of Yanzhou.

As for the Chenliu County where Yanzhou is located, the banner has been changed, and the army led by the Taishou Wang Qiu to defend Liu Bei's army in Pushui according to the plain, and after hearing that the lord Liu Dai was assassinated, he did not say a word, and directly followed the advice of Liu Bei's envoy, and raised the county to welcome Liu Bei into the lord.

Even if he changed the owner, Liu Miao could only show his identity and enter Chen Liu, his brother Liu Dai's family, his family members were all in the city, and he couldn't go if he didn't go.

As soon as he returned to the mansion after entering the city, Liu Miao had no time to take a breath, so he had to report to his family, and Liu Bei came to visit in person.

Accompanying Liu Bei were Yuan Chen Liutaishou Wang Qiu and Changshi Liu Jingzong, the two of whom were Liu Dai's most relied on cronies, and now they are all working under Liu Bei's account.

The guest sat down, Liu Bei saw Liu Miao as a brother, he was a few years younger than Liu Xuan, but it seemed that the age was almost the same.

"Brother returned to Chenliu, brother can be regarded as relieved, there is a brother here to preside over the overall situation of Yanzhou, and my brother is at ease."

Hearing Liu Bei say this, Liu Miao sighed secretly in his heart, quickly got up, and said to Liu Bei: "Xuande must not say this, how old is Xuande for his brother, how can he preside over the overall situation of Yanzhou, Xuande will say this again, and he will kill himself on the spot immediately for his brother." ”

Seeing that Liu Miao said so seriously, Liu Jingzong hurriedly got up to play a round, in terms of background, he is also the queen of the clan, and Liu Miao and Liu Bei can discuss the seniority, it just so happens that his seniority is higher than Liu Xuan and Liu Bei, and both of them have to call him a clan uncle.

As soon as he came forward, Liu Bei didn't want to let Xian give Liu Xuan and ask him to come out to preside over the overall situation of Yanzhou and other kind of polite words and nonsense, humble, everyone sat down again, Liu Miao looked at Liu Jingzong and Wang Qiu, and asked: "Brother Yu Linzi, what's going on?"
