Chapter 1277 Liu Jiyu who was slaughtered by others
Liu Bei and Xu Shu were full of food and drink. Liu Beijun's soldiers also enjoyed the wine and meat rarely.
At the same time, the common people in the city also received some meat from Liu Bei's reward.
This is Liu Bei's means of buying people's hearts. Although Yizhou is rich, exploitation has always existed. The people want to eat meat only during the New Year's holidays. Liu Bei borrowed the name of celebrating the victory, and every household in Chengdu City could receive a pound of mutton, which was Liu Bei's intention.
Although a pound of mutton is not much, the people feel Liu Bei's heart. The people felt that Liu Bei had not forgotten them, and properly let Liu Bei win the hearts of the people.
However, in this way, Liu Bei's expenses this time are very large.
Chengdu City is a big city, each household is a pound of mutton, and 100,000 households are 100,000 pounds, Liu Bei is considered to be bleeding heavily.
But Liu Bei was happy and willing to do so. After all, money is constantly minted, and Liu Bei spends it, so there is no pressure at all. In fact, Liu Bei walked into a misunderstanding. But no one reminded him.
Fa Zheng, who was in charge of money and grain, only weakly reminded Liu Bei about the reserve of money and grain in the treasury, and seeing that Liu Bei insisted, he didn't say anything more. And Fa Zheng still wants Liu Bei to continue to lose.
Many people are in a state of joy, but there is one person who is very sad.
This person is Liu Zhang, who was placed under house arrest by Liu Bei.
At the beginning, Liu Bei slandered Liu Zhang's son Liu Xian and killed Liu Feng, took advantage of the situation to raise troops to occupy Chengdu, and then claimed to be the pastor of Yizhou. Liu Zhang's family did not have to worry about their lives, and their family was placed under house arrest by Liu Bei and imprisoned in a mansion in Beicheng, Chengdu.
This mansion was the residence of Wang Lei, who was loyal to Liu Zhang. Wang Lei was loyal to Liu Zhang, and had long advised Liu Zhang to drive Liu Bei away, but Liu Zhang just didn't listen, and finally fell into the clutches of Liu Bei. Wang Ti himself also died vigorously, worthy of his duty as Liu Zhang's courtier.
Wang Lei has a very high official position, but he is bold and righteous, and most of his money is scattered by him. Although his mansion has a certain scale, the decoration is chilling.
Liu Bei put Liu Zhang under house arrest here, and also meant to let Liu Zhang suffer psychological torture here.
There are heavy guards outside the mansion, and without Liu Bei's order, even Xu Shu and Wei Yan can't go in half a step, and the guards are extremely strict.
Liu Zhang's family became caged birds.
Liu Zhang's family can feel the movement outside, but the real situation is not clear at all.
At this time, Liu Zhang was sitting in the gazebo in a daze. The servant who monitored Liu Zhang's every move was unimpressed. Every day, Liu Zhang will be in a daze here, and he is used to it.
Liu Zhang reminisces about the past and what he has done here.
Because of a moment of righteousness, he killed Zhang Lu's mother, which caused Zhang Lu to leave Yizhou and occupy Hanzhong. Liu Zhang was a little impulsive when he thought about doing it himself at this time.
In addition, Liu Zhang killed Zhang Lu's mother because Zhang Lu's mother was accepted as a concubine by Liu Yan, and Liu Yan was very favored. This woman relied on Liu Yan's favor and stimulated Liu Yan's original partner, that is, Liu Zhang's biological mother, every day, and finally caused Liu Zhang's biological mother to die of depression. After Liu Yan's death, Liu Zhang succeeded to the throne, naturally to avenge his mother. But Liu Zhang was too young at the time to anticipate the consequences. After Zhang Lu seized Hanzhong, the strength of Yizhou was greatly weakened, and at the same time, he continued to attack Yizhou, and Hanzhong was now taken by the Shenwu court, and Liu Zhang was somewhat responsible.
Liu Zhang didn't regret this incident, but felt that if he could calm down, maybe he wouldn't have done so badly.
The only thing that Liu Zhang regretted was that he lacked a tendon in his brain back then and invited Liu Bei into Yizhou. What's even more speechless is that Liu Zhang trusts Liu Bei almost to the extreme, and gives Liu Bei everything good. Liu Bei finally took away his Yizhou.
Liu Zhang has already guessed the cause and effect of the incident.
In the past, Liu Zhang did not have much contact with his two sons, but during the period of house arrest, Liu Zhang communicated well with Liu Xun and Liu Xian. He also knew what happened to Liu Xian and Liu Feng at the beginning. According to Liu Yan's explanation, Liu Zhang felt that Liu Feng would not be killed because of that. And Liu Feng died in the end, there is only one explanation, someone wants Liu Feng to die.
In the end, Liu Bei broke out under the pretext that Liu Xian killed Liu Feng, and who was behind it was undoubtedly Liu Bei.
In order to get his own Yizhou, Liu Bei can not even want his adopted son, which shows how dark his heart is. When he knew such a thing, Liu Zhang shed tears of remorse, but he couldn't change anything.
If Liu Zhang could have listened to the words of people like Wang Lei before, he would not have fallen into this situation.
Thinking of Wang Ti, Liu Zhang became even more sad. This mansion is Wang Ti's, Wang Ti used to always admonish himself uprightly, but he never listened, and finally Wang Ti died in the hands of Liu Bei. Now in Wang Lei's mansion, Liu Zhang always thinks that he has failed Wang Lei's loyalty.
What is even more chilling is the attitude of other people, Liu Zhang already knows about his former subordinates, and I don't know how many people have taken refuge in Liu Bei and kept their power and glory.
Liu Zhang vaguely remembered that when Liu Yan died, he also told him to be careful in everything. Looking back now, Liu Zhang feels that he has failed Liu Yan's instructions.
At this time, he was under house arrest here, and Liu Zhang knew that Liu Bei would not kill him, but he would keep himself under house arrest until he died. Locked here, Liu Zhang doesn't have anything to do, the only thing that is rare is that he has a lot more time and space for himself, so he can clean up well, and he doesn't have so many troublesome things before. It's a blessing of misfortune.
"Hey, is this my fate?" Liu Zhang sighed.
Liu Zhang did not have any hope, and by chance, Liu Zhang learned that Zhang Ren and Yan Yan had been separating from the eastern counties of Yizhou, and established a joint army to destroy Liu Bei, and constantly resisted Liu Bei, wanting to overthrow Liu Bei and welcome him back.
Others may not believe Liu Zhang, but Zhang Ren and Yan Yan are people that Liu Zhang believes 100%. Anyone can betray Liu Zhang, but Zhang Ren and Yan Yan cannot.
At the same time, Liu Zhang also believed that as long as Zhang Ren and Yan Yan rebelled against Liu Bei one day, Liu Bei would not be unfavorable to himself, on the contrary, he would entertain himself with delicious food and drink. No, Liu Zhang is not less aggrieved here, and there will be any demand.
Liu Zhang also accepted everything with peace of mind. After all, these things used to belong to him.
Enough of being in a daze, Liu Zhang was ready to go back to his study and get a good night's sleep. Now he has no other hobbies and enjoyments, and he can forget some troubles when he sleeps.
At this time, several soldiers came over. Liu Zhang was greatly surprised, such a posture seemed to be Liu Bei looking for him.
Sure enough, one of the soldiers said to him coldly: "Liu Zhang, my lord is looking for you!" ”
Liu Zhang has nothing to disagree with, he is now a piece of meat on Liu's record board, and Liu Bei has the final say in killing or chopping. But Liu Zhang was very curious, Liu Bei didn't usually look for him much, what did he call him to do at this time?
Liu Bei called Liu Zhang, but in fact, it was the little inferiority complex in Liu Bei's heart that was causing trouble.
Why?
Liu Bei wanted to prove himself too much, to prove that he was no worse than all the princes in the world. But for so many years, few princes in the world have taken Liu Bei in their eyes, Liu Bei doesn't care about such things on the surface, but in fact, he has a trace of inferiority in his heart. This inferiority complex slowly grew. Liu Bei is already very similar to telling Liu Zhang that he is much stronger than him, Liu Zhang just has a good father, otherwise, he is nothing.
Liu Bei Jialai just wanted to humiliate Liu Zhang, and by the way, show his ability.
Liu Zhang was brought to Liu Bei like this.
"I've seen Liu Yizhou." People were under the eaves and had to bow their heads, Liu Zhang could only salute Liu Bei very humbly, but in his heart, Liu Bei was not worthy of being a Yizhou pastor at all.
The title of 'Liu Yizhou' used to be called Liu Zhang by others. Now that Liu Zhang calls Liu Bei, there is no need to say much about the feeling in his heart.
Liu Zhang is considered to be an acquaintance, he fell into the clutches of Liu Bei, and if he wants to live, he must be cautious and cautious, and Liu Bei can't find any excuses.
"Ji Yu, you're here. Come, come, sit! Liu Bei greeted Liu Zhang very warmly.
Liu Zhang was motionless, he arched his hand and asked, "I don't know if Liu Yizhou called me over, but what are your orders?" ”
"Ji Yu, you're too outward. You and me, who are with whom? Come, sit! Liu Bei and Liu Zhang are almost.
Now that Liu Zhang has seen through Liu Bei's face, he will not be deceived by Liu Bei, and there will definitely be nothing good. Liu Zhang followed Liu Bei's meaning and sat down.
Liu Bei said leisurely: "During this time, Ji Yu is used to it? If you have any other needs, you can say bluntly, I and you are brothers of the same clan, and we will definitely meet you. ”
Brothers of the same kind? If you Liu Bei really attach importance to the love of brothers of the same clan, will you play conspiracy and tricks to benefit the state? Liu Zhang hoped that Liu Bei would die now.
"Thanks to Liu Yizhou's kindness, I don't have to worry about eating and drinking." Liu Zhang said with a lick on his face.
Liu Bei nodded with satisfaction, Liu Zhang's appearance was what he wanted the most. It was a wonderful feeling that the princes who used to be high up now licked their faces and bowed at their feet. Liu Bei said that in the future, if Liu Yu from Luoyang knelt at his feet, that taste would definitely make Liu Bei fluttering.
"I called you here today, in fact, I want to tell you that Zhang Ren and Yan Yan have been destroyed by me." Liu Bei said it very suddenly.
He just wanted to see how Liu Zhang looked, whether he would be frightened and disappointed.
Indeed, as Liu Bei thought, Liu Zhang's face changed suddenly, and before he came again, he was still fantasizing that Zhang Ren and Yan Yan would return to Chengdu to save him.
At this moment, he learned that Zhang Ren and Yan Yan had failed, and Liu Zhang's hopes were also shattered.
"Ji Yu, seeing that your face has changed drastically, is your body uncomfortable?" Liu Bei's heart is refreshing, he likes to watch other people's hopes completely shattered.
Liu Zhang hurriedly straightened his expression and said, "Thank you Liu Yizhou for your care, I'm fine." Congratulations to Liu Yizhou, suppressing the rebellion and stabilizing Yizhou. ”
For his own safety, Liu Zhang could only say that the two loyal ministers to him were rebellious.
"It turns out that Ji Yu, you also think that Zhang Ren and Yan Yan are rebellious. That's easy to do. I have something I want Ji Yu to help with, but I don't know if Ji Yu is willing or not. Liu Bei said with a smile on his face.
Liu Zhang's heart tightened, he knew that Liu Bei would definitely not have anything good, but he said respectfully: "Liu Yizhou, please command, but if I can do it, I will definitely do it." ”
Liu Bei said: "This Zhang and Yan two thieves destroyed the place, causing the lives to be ruined, and the people were not able to make a living, I can't wait to eat their flesh and sleep their skin." Now Ji Yu also has the same opinion as me. I hope that Ji Yu will write a document to condemn the rebellious behavior of Zhang Ren and Yan Yan to the world. Ji Yu, what do you think? ”
Poison, poison. Liu Bei is trying to ruin Liu Zhang's reputation.
Liu Bei knew that now that he had defeated Zhang Ren and Yan Yan, there would be others who would rebel against him in the name of Liu Zhang in the future. Instead of waiting for such a situation to occur in the future, it is better to mess up Liu Zhang's reputation now, and Liu Bei can sleep more peacefully.
If Liu Zhang wrote this thing, it would definitely chill all the old subordinates who were loyal to Liu Zhang, and they would never do anything for Liu Zhang in the future, let alone help Liu Zhang recapture Yizhou. Liu Zhang will also become a person who will be ridiculed and spurned by the world.
Knowing that there would be such consequences, Liu Zhang had nothing to do.
"Why did Liu Yizhou say this, for the sake of Yizhou, I have no shirk responsibility." When Liu Zhang said this, his heart was dripping blood.
Liu Bei was very satisfied, and asked people to send pen, ink and paper.
Liu Zhang was surprised when he saw the paper, he had never seen this thing.
Liu Bei didn't explain anything, just watched Liu Zhang write.
Liu Zhang began to write, and slowly his face became stiff, because the things he wrote could be said to be an insult to Zhang Ren and Yan Yan, and also a kind of irresponsibility to himself.
After writing it, Liu Zhang seemed to have lost his spirit.
Liu Bei took it, and after watching it carefully, he was very satisfied with Liu Zhang's acquaintance.
"Ji Yu, thank you for your hard work! Nothing more now. You can go back and get some rest. "Liu Bei got what he wanted, of course, he drove people away.
Liu Zhang stood up, bowed his hand, and left silently.
Looking at Liu Zhang's back, Liu Bei said one more sentence: "Ji Yu, I forgot to tell you, Zhang Ren and Yan Yan took refuge in Liu Yu's house, and Liu Jun in Jingzhou also got involved, and they were also defeated by me." ”
When Liu Zhang heard this, his marching footsteps stopped, and his heart was like a knife.
"Did Zhang Ren and Yan Yan also betray me?" A tear fell from the corner of Liu Zhang's eye, but then he knew that he couldn't turn his head, it would be a joke for Liu Bei.
"Haha!" Liu Bei let out a loud laugh after Liu Zhang walked away.
This laughter was heard by Liu Zhang, and the pain in his heart was even worse. If I had been a little more clever, I would have ended up like this.
