Fa Zheng secretly hid Kou Feng, just to stab Liu Bei at a critical moment, so that Liu Bei would be discouraged. Liu Bei wanted Kou Feng to die, Fa Zheng used Kou Feng to calculate Liu Bei, Liu Bei and Kou Feng are known to the world to be a father-son relationship, if the reason for this is made public, future generations of history books will set Liu Bei as a villain, and the strategy is very vicious.

Fa Zheng secretly called his old servant and whispered a big word in his ear. The old servant understood, and after dressing up, he secretly went out through the back door, and before half an hour he returned, and gave Fa Zheng an affirmative answer.

Everything that should be done is done, Fazheng is in a good mood, and specially instructed his daughter-in-law to get some delicious food, and Fazheng wants to relax.

Fa Zheng is usually frugal, and he will not be extravagant if it is not a holiday, it is rare that he is happy today, and he has received so many gifts, his daughter-in-law will naturally not let Fa Zheng down, and she is busy in the kitchen and prepares a hearty meal for Fa Zheng.

On the other side, Liao Li searched the city of Chengdu one by one according to the list given by Fazheng. Of course, Liao Li will not tell his true purpose, and he will act in the name of searching for traitors.

Wei Yan had caused a pacification of the thief rebellion before, which made the officials and families who were searched by Liao Li panic.

Compared with Wei Yan's ferocity, Liao Li is much more gentle, and he does not show his knife at every turn. Such civilized law enforcement behavior has made the majority of Chengdu officials and families feel a strong sense of security. In order to express their gratitude to Liao Li, these officials and families took the initiative to show their sincerity and implicitly said that they would send some delicious local products to Liao Li's mansion.

Yizhou is rich, this local specialty is naturally very cute, Liao Li is a smart person, and he is naturally smiling.

Isn't it just for money to be an official? Liao Li didn't find a problem, of course he left happily.

But all the people on the list searched and found nothing suspicious. This made Liao Li a little worried. Liao Li felt that he was confused by these people's native products, resulting in some suspicious places not being found. went back to search again, and Liao Li couldn't pull this face no matter what. Everyone gave gifts to the house, and they rashly searched again. If it is searched, it is better to say, if it is not searched, Liao Li's old face will be lost.

Liao Li also thought about searching the officials and families outside the list, but after a closer look, he found that the remaining officials and families either had a close relationship with Zhang Song, or they had a good attitude towards Liu Bei before, which made Liao Li crazy.

In desperation, Liao Li could only come to Fazheng's house and need Fazheng's guidance.

Before finding Kou Feng's body, Liao Li didn't dare to go back and report to Liu Bei, if he said in front of Liu Bei that he didn't find it, wouldn't it prove that his ability was not good, and Liu Bei would be disappointed in himself?

When Liao Li arrived at Fa Zheng's place, Fa Zheng was eating the food cooked by his daughter-in-law.

As soon as he saw Liao Li coming, Fa Zheng also beckoned Liao Li to eat together.

Where is Liao Li still in the mood to eat, and directly said that he has found nothing, hoping that Fa Zheng can give some advice.

It's normal to find nothing, Kou Feng is now lying in Fazheng's secret room, and it's strange that Liao Li can find it.

Fa Zheng pretended to say Liao Liyitong, what kind of greed for credit, afraid of Fa Zheng's division of credit, and so on.

Liao Li's old face was directly lost in front of Fa Zheng.

In the end, Fa Zheng still gave Liao Li a suggestion. Nowadays, you can't find it in the city of Chengdu, but there will be places outside the city, especially the kind of groves or inaccessible places.

Liao Li suddenly realized that he was in too much of a hurry, and he couldn't think of such a simple place. And this time, Liao Li took the initiative to invite Fa Zheng to go with him. Fa Zheng refused this time, he didn't want to waste time walking around.

Liao Li didn't care, and after thanking Fa Zheng, he went straight to the door.

Originally, Chengdu City did not allow anyone to go out now, but Liao Li himself was in charge of the West City Gate, and when he thought of his task, of course he went out of the city without saying a word.

After searching outside the city of Chengdu, I finally found an unrecognizable corpse in a small forest. This corpse has suffered all kinds of insults, and it is good to be able to see that it is a human being. And the key thing is that there is something on Kou Feng's body next to the corpse. Liao Li knew that he had finally completed his mission.

After reining in the corpse, Liao Li returned to the city to report to Liu Bei.

But when Liao Li returned to the city and saw Liu Bei, he saw the gloomy faces of Liu Bei, Xu Shu and others. Liao Li immediately thought of his behavior of going out of the city just now, but it touched Liu Bei's taboo. Liu Bei ordered that no one should go out of the city, and Liao Li also went out, is this not clear to embarrass Liu Bei?

No matter what the reason, it can't be reversed, Liao Li's impression in Liu Bei's heart collapsed this time.

Liao Li can't say if he is bitter.

Fortunately, Liao Li found the body of "Kou Feng", and Liu Bei was not easy to attack.

When he saw the appearance of the corpse of "Kou Feng", Rao is Liu Bei had seen a lot of dead people, and when he saw the appearance of the innocent face, he immediately wanted to vomit.

Fa Zheng was calm in his heart, this corpse was prepared by Fa Zheng for the "dark department" spies, and Liu Bei definitely couldn't see it.

Now from the appearance, I can't tell if it's Kou Feng, only the objects on Kou Feng's body testify.

Liu Bei could only perform a bitter cry, and then ordered his subordinates to bury "Kou Feng". This is not a difficult thing for Liu Bei at all.

As for who did it, Liu Bei, Xu Shu, Liao Li and others were all confused, and in the same situation last night, even the soldiers guarding were killed. In addition, the place where the body was found was again inaccessible. It can be said that this is a headless public case.

Liu Bei plans to investigate thoroughly, treating "Kou Feng" like this, it is to discourage, and if the murderer is not caught, he will always be at large, and even find opportunities to be unfavorable to Liu Bei. Liu Bei didn't want to be in unknown danger.

Liu Bei ordered Liao Li to be responsible for a thorough investigation, and the murderer must be arrested and brought to justice.

Liao Li agreed with a bitter face, he couldn't do it if he didn't agree, who told him to openly disobey Liu Bei's order. Liao Li himself didn't know how to investigate next, and there was no clue at all.

But soon, Liao Li doesn't have to worry so much. Because Liu Bei's attention could not be focused on tracking down the murderer who insulted Kou Feng's corpse.

The guards of most of the counties in Yizhou openly rebelled.

The original Yizhou army, led by Zhang Ren, the Taishou of Ba County, and Yan Yan, the Taishou of Jiangyang County, held high the banner of exterminating Liu Bei and mobilized troops on a large scale.

Zhang Song and Fa Zheng captured Liu Beisheng and Liu Zhang, set up their own Yizhou pastor, and pretended to let the county guards return to Chengdu to report on their work, and then the news reached the hands of the county guards.

Since Zhang Song and Fa Zheng used the channel of the "dark department", when these news were handed over to the county guards, everyone's reaction was different.

Some generals didn't believe it at all. They didn't believe that Liu Bei would be so bold and act directly in Chengdu, so they weren't afraid that these generals would go straight to Chengdu. The one who has this kind of thinking is Yan Yan.

There are also some military generals who are suspicious, such as Zhang Ren, he didn't have a very good impression of Liu Bei before, and he vaguely noticed that after Liu Bei entered Yizhou, he also had secret contact with the local guards, which was not a small plan. Zhang Ren had the intention to report, but there was no evidence. There is no evidence, according to Liu Zhang's character, he didn't believe it even if he was killed.

Some military generals whose families are in Chengdu are a little worried that something will happen in Chengdu, so they immediately sent people back to find out the news.

The last kind of person is to disobey Liu Zhang in his heart and prepare for the time to rebel. And this dangerous element is Pang Xi, his eyes lit up when he received the news, and then he slowly calculated it. If this news is true, then his chance has come.

Even if the guards who received the news reacted differently, they almost all thought it was impossible.

But as soon as Xu Shu's order to let them return to Chengdu to report on their work in the name of Liu Zhang arrived, the entire counties and counties of Yizhou exploded.

When I return to Chengdu to report on my work, it is generally once every three months, that is, once a quarter. Liu Zhang was lazy and changed it to once every six months. This is also why, the guards did not believe the news from Fa Zheng and Zhang Song.

Now, as with the news that came, the mystery in this is worth considering.

Zhang Ren and Yan Yan are the people who can't sit still. If the news is true, then Liu Zhang is in danger, and Yizhou is also in danger.

Slowly, not only Zhang Ren and Yan Yan were worried, but even the guards of other counties began to fidget.

Zhang Ren and Yan Yan quietly arranged for their henchmen to go to Chengdu to check, and found that Chengdu was actually allowed to enter but not to leave, and the guards at the city gate were not the original troops.

Zhang Ren and Yan Yan, who received such information, finally believed it.

Zhang Ren and Yan Yan, who were the shortest apart between the two, began to get in touch. Although their age difference is a bit big, it does not prevent them from having a deep friendship.

After the two communicated, they decided to unite the soldiers and horses of various counties and counties to go to Chengdu to rescue Liu Zhang.

However, this alliance was not so satisfactory, and the attitudes of the guards of the various counties were inconsistent. The guards of Bazhou County and Dongguanghan County have an ambiguous attitude and think of them as snakes. Qianwei County Taishou Pang Xi even refused directly under the pretext of guarding against the Southern Barbarians.

Except for Zhang Su, the Taishou of Padang County, that is, Zhang Song's elder brother, who strongly supported him, the guards of other counties were all ambiguous.

These guards with ambiguous attitudes, except for the guards of Bazhou County and the guards of Dongguanghan County, who have been bought by Liu Bei, the families of the rest of the guards are in Chengdu, and they dare not move.

Yan Yan scolded these people for being ungrateful, and his lord was in the hands of thieves, but he was indifferent. Zhang Ren kept persuading Yan Yan, but he was worried that Yan Yan would be angry when he got older.

Others are reluctant to send troops, but Yan Yan and Zhang Ren will definitely do it.

So the soldiers and horses of Ba County, Jiangyang County, and Badong County led by Zhang Ren and Yan Yan joined forces and killed Chengdu.

When the news was transmitted to Chengdu, Liu Bei's mouth was so shocked that his mouth opened wide, and the news leaked, and his strategy to perfectly solve the guards of the counties and counties completely failed.

At this time, Liu Bei only had one city, Chengdu, and his troops were only about 30,000, so he really couldn't stop the menacing soldiers and horses of the three counties. I really didn't expect this to be the case, without Liu Bei summoning it, Xu Shu and the others quickly came to look for Liu Bei.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the situation is urgent. Zhang Ren and Yan Yan rebelled. Liu Bei said anxiously.

Fa Zheng and Zhang Song were sarcastic in their hearts: Liu Bei is really too shameless, Zhang Ren and Yan Yan are not his Liu Bei's subordinates, how can they be rebellious? Liu Bei has completely regarded himself as a Yizhou pastor.

"My lord, the inferior people also received the news, and the situation is not so critical." Xu Shu said with relief: "In all the counties and counties of Yizhou, only Zhang Ren, Yan Yan, and Zhang Su rebelled, and the other counties did not have any reaction. It can be seen from this that the lord is very popular. ”

When Xu Shu said this, Liu Bei figured it out. Originally, Liu Bei's ascension was illegal, and it was expected that he would be opposed by the entire Yizhou. But now it seems that only three people are dissatisfied, and the other counties are silent, doesn't it mean that they recognize Liu Bei's authority in disguise?

With such an idea, Liu Bei was a lot more relaxed.

"Strategist, the thief army is coming to Chengdu, and there must be a defensive strategy." Liu Bei asked.

"Don't worry, my lord, if Zhang Ren and the others want to kill Chengdu, it's not so easy." Xu Shu asserted: "The lord immediately immediately sent out his before and after appointment as the pastor of Yizhou, and his name is right!" ”

"Good! It's up to the military division. Liu Bei said.

"Among Zhang Ren, Yan Yan, and Zhang Su, Zhang Su is Ziqiao's brother, and Ziqiao needs to be convinced." Xu Shu thought of a plan to separate Zhang Su first.

"And this?!" Liu Bei looked at Zhang Song, he didn't know that Zhang Su was Zhang Song's brother.

Zhang Song didn't know that his brother would make such a move, which made him extremely embarrassed, and said: "Lord, my brother and I have a disagreement with politics, and we often quarrel fiercely because of this, and the two brothers have already separated. ”

Zhang Song tried his best to put aside the relationship, he didn't want to make a situation of fratricide.

"Ziqiao can work hard, and there is no obstacle whether he succeeds or not." Liu Bei did not blame Zhang Song, but encouraged him.

Zhang Song sincerely said that he would work hard.

Fa Zheng came out and suggested: "My lord, the county guards did not echo the rebellion, but it was not that they admired the lord in their hearts, but they waited for the price to sell, and waited for the lord and the rebellion to make the final result, and then they made another plan." The lord has to guard against it. ”

Liu Bei nodded, Fa Zheng's idea is right, in these years, where can there be so many righteous and bright gentlemen, without a little thought and planning, if they want to survive in this troubled world, it is simply a joke.

"The lord can repair the book to the unresponsive guards, move them with affection, know them with reason, and maybe they will gain something." Zhang Song said meaningfully.

Liu Bei understood that it was nothing more than to give great benefits to the guards of these counties and tie them to his own boat, so as to support his Liu Bei's status.

"Ziqiao is really old and seeking the country." Liu Bei found a way in an instant.

So, Liu Bei immediately advertised how he got to the top and let the whole Yizhou know. Then he repaired the book to the guards who did not rebel, promising a lot of benefits. It's all for nothing, Liu Bei won't have any distress now, and it's the right way to get through the current crisis first.

At this time, Zhang Ren, Yan Yan, and Zhang Su were constantly approaching Chengdu with a large army.
