Wei Yan was persuaded by Zhao Shu to enter Changsha alone, and after the city of Changsha was broken, he immediately rewarded him with a generous reward. Although they were all unintentional moves, they were almost killed by Guan Yu in their eyes. After Wei Yan's surrender, he often moved around with Zhao Shu and had a close relationship, so in the eyes of others, he was naturally attributed to Zhao Shu's family. Now Liu Bei said that it was Zhao Shu who recommended Wei Yan to be the Taishou of Hanzhong, which was already very resentful, but Wei Yan didn't know how to avoid suspicion, and he came to meet again just after he dispersed, which made Zhao Shu feel a big headache.

The two sides sat down, and Zhao Shu saw that Wei Yan was full of spring breeze, and he was complacent, and he also congratulated: "Congratulations to Wen Changju for this important position." Wei Yan hurriedly said, "Don't dare." It's all recommended by Mr. to cultivate, otherwise how can Yan be in this position? It is to thank Mr. for his great kindness. This is in Liu Bei's mansion, Zhao Shu looked left and right, and said: "Wen Chang must not speak like this, this is all the lord's wisdom and eyes." The matter of position has nothing to do with Shu. ”

Wei Yan saw Zhao Shu looking left and right, so he smiled and said, "If there are people outside the room, how can they hide from Yanzhi's ears and eyes?" Since Mr. said so, Yan didn't say much, but he always knew in his heart that Mr. was virtuous. Zhao Shu also knew that he couldn't explain it to him clearly, so he simply didn't say anything, so he said: "Since there is nothing to do, the chief can go back to the house to prepare, you must know that Hanzhong Taishou has a great responsibility, and you must not let the lord down." ”

"This Yan understands." Wei Yan got up to say goodbye, walked away two steps but turned around, and asked, "Mr. is going back to Chengdu in a few days, and he has no words to explain before leaving?" It seems that Wei Yan really should be his own henchman, Zhao Shu smiled bitterly in his heart, and replied: "I only hope that Wen Chang will guard Hanzhong and live up to today's bold words." Wei Yan stared at Zhao Shu for a moment, and suddenly sighed: "That's right." Yanwen heard that Mr. Sun Quanzhi was in the army, and two days ago, he had sent an envoy to see the lord. ”

This is valuable news, Zhao Shu was slightly shocked in his heart, and asked, "How does the lord reply?" Wei Yan shook his head and said, "I don't know about this Yan. It's just that Dongwu insisted that Mr. ** was killed, and there was ironclad evidence. Mr. himself needs to be more careful, and General Huang is no longer there, so Yan is alone. Zhao Shu knew that he meant well, and then smiled: "Wen Chang rest assured." The father-in-law is a fraudulent death, and this lord wants to make Shu believe in Cao Cao's plan. Wei Yancai suddenly realized, so he didn't say anything more, and left again.

Liu Bei left Wei Yanzhen in Hanzhong, and Guo Huai was stationed in Shangyong, retrieved Liu Feng, and went to Chengdu to report the news first. After resting for a few days, the army set off and returned to Chengdu. Liu Bei ordered the army and horses to be stationed outside the city and led the generals into the city. The Chinese military officials of the city had long been waiting out of the city for ten miles under the leadership of Liu Feng, and when they saw Liu Bei coming, they all bowed to the side of the road and said in unison: "Welcome the lord." ”

Liu Beixiang treated people with benevolence and righteousness, hurriedly dismounted, and said loudly: "Everyone, please get up." Then they got up. Liu Bei Dan saw that the soldiers were all dressed in white, so he hurriedly called Liu Feng and asked, "Who died in the city?" All the sergeants wear filial piety? Liu Feng glanced at Zhao Shu and said to him first: "Mr. Zhao can be prepared first?" Zhao Shu's heart suddenly felt cold, and he said in a trembling voice: "The young general, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Liu Feng said slowly: "When Feng rushed back to Chengdu, General Huang was bedridden for many days because he missed Mr. Huang who was seriously ill. But I don't want to insist on not insisting on the return of my husband and seeing him for the last time. ”

When Zhao Shu worshiped his father-in-law, although he was selfish. But he has no relatives here, and after several years of getting along, he has regarded Huang Zhong as a close relative. On the way back to Chengdu, Zhao Shu was also very worried in his heart, unexpectedly, there were unforeseen circumstances, people had good fortune and misfortune, and he had just arrived in Chengdu City to get such bad news. Zhao Shu only felt that his eyes were black, and he fainted as soon as he retreated.

When Zhao Shu woke up, he was already on top of the soft collapse, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Guan Feng, and Rong'er looked concerned and anxious. Liu Bei couldn't help shaking his head and sighing beside the couch, and when he saw him wake up, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "When General Huang died, I am also very sad in my heart. But people can't be resurrected after death, and it is advisable to mourn and take care of the body. Zhao Shu still felt that his whole body was sore, and he struggled to get up and said, "Lord Xie cares." ”

Liu Bei said many words of relief before leaving. Zhao Shu asked and knew that Huang Zhonglingtang was set up in front, so he got up and stayed, and was helped out by Guan Feng and Rong'er's two daughters. On the way, Zhao Shu looked carefully, and it turned out that this was his former mansion in Chengdu. Originally, he lived with his father-in-law Huang Zhong, but now he is dying, and his heart is even more sad, and he unconsciously burst into tears.

In front of the hall, I saw a coffin in the middle, the white flags fluttering left and right, surrounded by green smoke, and the spirit card in front of me was written "The Spirit of the Ancestor Huang Zhong", Zhao Shu hurriedly stepped forward and cried to the ground. Guan Feng and Rong'er also stepped forward to salute, and kept persuading Zhao Shu. After Zhao Shu knelt nine times, he lit incense and candles for Huang Zhong, and then asked Guan Feng and Rong'er to retreat with the family before kneeling in front of the spirit. There was him alone in the hall, and occasionally there were two bird calls from the courtyard, but Zhao Shu's mind kept thinking, could it be too much of a coincidence?

It wasn't until after dark that Rong'er came in with food and said, "Do you want to use some?" Zhao Shucai woke up from the mixed thoughts, and really felt a little hungry in his stomach, so he nodded and took a few bites. Rong'er suddenly said: "I have heard that the old general should be strong and strong, but I don't want to miss it." ”

Zhao Shu heard her mention Huang Zhong, and his heart was sour, and he felt that the food in his mouth was difficult to swallow, so he said, "Take it, I don't want to eat it." Rong'er didn't persuade him, packed up his things and said, "I don't know what kind of illness the old general has?" God really doesn't have long eyes. Although Zhao Shu didn't mean to look at her face, he couldn't help but move slightly when he heard it, and said, "What do you have to say." Rong'er raised her eyes to look at him and wondered, "What can I say?" Then he turned and went out.

Zhao Shu always felt that Rong'er had something to say, which seemed to be in line with what he wanted in his heart, but he didn't want to call her to ask for clarification. That night, Zhao Shu kept watch in front of his Huang Zhongling all night; In the following days, he did not go to Liu Bei's mansion to discuss matters, but rested in his own mansion. Guan Feng, Gao Ping, and Rong'er also live in his mansion.

Until the day of Huang Zhong's burial, Liu Bei personally brought people to worship. Zhao Shu was not very familiar with these etiquettes, but he had already asked Guan Feng clearly, and everything was handled easily, but he couldn't help crying again. That night, Zhao Shu returned to the mansion exhausted, and was about to rest, but he heard a report from the door that the family would come and say that Kong Ming was outside. Zhao Shu was slightly surprised, he returned from Xu Capital and only met Kong Ming once in private; Later, his credit grew, and there were more and more people around him, Kong Ming already had obvious hostility, but he didn't know what would happen when he came to him at such a sensitive time?
