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, and Shu is still the Shu country that the ancestor defeated, not the Shu country where 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 there was no trace of joy, but it 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 are things being investigated?"
"Lord, the Jinyi Guard is too cunning, and the strongholds that I have detected are empty," Chen Deng said gloomily.
"Hmph" Liu Bei snorted coldly and said: "These rats, a certain family wants to search for them all in the city, and they must be pulled out and killed without leaving a single 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, which in Liu Bei's eyes was a great shame.
As soon as Liu Zhang died, the hat of killing the lord was finally buckled on his head, even if he supported Liu Xun now, it 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, and within three or five years, he will not be able 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, the top priority now is to take Zhang Ren, not to solve Zhang Ren, the situation in Chengdu has always been unstable, Zhang Ren can send troops to Chengdu at any time" "This is very true, Zhang Ren's hundreds of thousands of male soldiers are pressed in the west, 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 is it good?"
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 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 free up 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 strength 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's appointment."
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, 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 a bamboo basket for nothing.
"Lord, this battle is not necessary, in fact, it can be discussed" "What Kong Ming means, Zhang Ren doesn't necessarily want to fight with us" Liu Bei's eyes lit up.
"In fact, Zhang Ren didn't attack us, he already said that he intended 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 the goodwill we release, 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, so temperamental, it's hard to talk about" "Zhang Ren's posture is high, nothing more than wanting 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, Zhang Ren still cared about Liu Zhang's bloodline, and he helped Liu Xun to the position, this move was right, but there was still some burden: "Kong Ming, you think, who should we send to talk now" "Lord, Zhang Ren is not an ordinary person, he is deciding, it will be the name of the future of Shu, and it will be a trip in person" 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 sit in the town, and second, a certain family does not believe in Zhang Ren, if he turns his face, you are not in danger, and you can't go."
Now the most powerful person around him is definitely not a few people who lead the troops, but Zhuge Liang, starting from Jingzhou, Zhuge Liang has always been giving him advice.
The most important thing is that he does not 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, but people's hearts are still unstable.
Zhuge Liang is the only pillar of his ability to handle state affairs and government affairs, Chen Deng has been radicalized since his family was ruined, and he has been dealing with the secret agents around Liu Bei, and he rarely has a shot at government affairs.

"My 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, Qian has been resting for a long time, and he should serve the lord" Sun Gan said firmly: "Qian must do his best to persuade Zhang Ren to surrender" "Good" Liu Bei pondered for a while, and finally nodded, this time, there is always someone who 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.
"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.
"Didn'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 he still needs the Zhao family to stabilize the Bashu family, but Kong Ming, you are the chief historian of the Prime Minister's Mansion and set him up."
"Subordinates get it" Zhuge Liang smiled yin, Huang Quan can still be regarded as an opponent, Zhao Wei, a little far behind.
"There is something abnormal over there in Pujiaguan," Liu Bei continued to ask.
"Nope" Chen Deng replied: "Our people watched Yan Yan's soldiers and horses closely, and he didn't move."
"Very 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.
"Lord, Madame gave birth" The guard said anxiously: "It's a son" "Son haha, okay" 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.
"Joy, Joy" 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 to see how this unicorn is doing." t1706231537:
