Huang Xu and Zhang Song drank heartily.

At this time, Fa Zheng asked: "Huang Taishou, I don't know if Liu Jiyu's father and son are okay in Hanzhong?" ”

Huang Xu did not mention this issue from the beginning, after all, Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da were all Liu Zhang's subordinates before, and although they finally surrendered to the imperial court, it was a betrayal for Liu Zhang. Huang Xu was also worried that if he brought it up, it would embarrass Zhang Song and them, but he didn't expect Fa Zheng to ask about this matter himself.

was mentioned by Fa Zheng like this, Zhang Song and Meng Da were interested. Liu Zhang's father and son were arranged by them to escape from Chengdu and come to Yizhou, and they were somewhat affectionate before, and now it is appropriate to look at Liu Zhang's situation.

In the hearts of Zhang Song, Fa Zheng and Meng Da, Liu Zhang has never been their master, and his identity is different, so his inner thoughts and feelings are different.

Since Zhang Song and Fa Zheng didn't mind, Huang Xu said very realistically: "Liu Jiyu, father and son, came to Hanzhong with your help. Xia Guan has already made proper arrangements. Liu Jiyu is doing well in Hanzhong. His eldest son, Liu Xun, is now a lieutenant under Xiaguan. ”

Liu Xun actually worked under Huang Xu! Will there be an article in this?

Meng Da and Zhang Song kept guessing in their hearts.

Only Fa Zheng said very happily: "Liu Xun is quite martial, likes the military, can serve the imperial court, and is under the command of Lord Taishou, it is really his blessing." ”

For Liu Xun, the law is precisely understood. Liu Zhang is a little mediocre, but his eldest son Liu Xun cannot, with the demeanor of his grandfather Liu Yan. In the past, some officials in Yizhou hoped that Liu Zhang would finish as soon as possible, and then Liu Xun would take over, and Yizhou would be different.

Huang Xu smiled, he also recognized Liu Xun's ability, and if he exercised more, he would have a promising future in the future.

has taken the big boat of the Huang family, and Liu Xun's future is naturally good.

"Lord Taishou, I want to get together with Liu Jiyu, I wonder if the adults can allow it?" Zhang Song asked weakly.

Hanzhong is Huang Xu's territory, and even if Zhang Song and them are interested, they still need Huang Xu's nod.

"A few people have an old relationship with Liu Jiyu, how can the lower officials stop it. But the lower officials couldn't decide whether Liu Zhang was willing or not. "Huang Xu will definitely do the beauty of adults, but I don't know if Liu Zhang will have an opinion.

Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da knew in their hearts that Liu Zhang was somewhat uncomfortable, and if they didn't want to see them, they couldn't do anything.

This is the Shenwu Imperial Court, not Yizhou, it is very disciplined, Zhang Song, Fazheng, and Meng Da can't follow the habits in Yizhou.

Speaking of which, there is no intention of continuing this banquet. Huang Xu immediately ordered someone to remove the banquet and sent someone to inform Liu Zhang to come.

"Taishou-sama misunderstood! I'll go see Liu Jiyu later. Zhang Song hurriedly corrected.

Let Liu Zhang come to see them, then let Liu Zhang feel that Zhang Song and they are now Shangguan and are pressing him. If Zhang Song heard such words, he would definitely not come, and he would find a lot of reasons.

Huang Xu felt justified, so he asked someone to take Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da to Liu Zhang's residence.

Under the guidance of Huang Xu's subordinates, Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da walked out of the Taishou Mansion and soon came to Liu Zhang's residence.

The mansion is nice, it's a mansion. It's not far from Taishou Mansion, and it's all on the same street. To Zhang Song's surprise with Fa Zheng and Meng Da, the guard strength of this mansion was too weak. There were only two soldiers guarding the gate. In Zhang Song's hearts, Liu Zhang used to be the governor of Yizhou, and now he has a huge role in the conquest of Liu Bei. With such a card in his hand, Liu Bei will be embarrassed. Liu Bei knew that if Liu Zhang didn't die, he wouldn't be able to sit still in Yizhou, and he would definitely send someone to assassinate him. The place where Liu Zhang lives should at least be a little more secretive and the guards be stronger. You can find it on the street like now, and the posture of one or two soldiers guarding the door doesn't take it very seriously.

Zhang Song and Fa Zheng shook their heads secretly, thinking that Liu Zhang would be valued here in Hanzhong, but now it seems to be dispensable.

"Three adults, Liu Jiyu's mansion is here. Rong Xiao went to report. Huang Xu's subordinates went forward to report as soon as they confessed.

Fa Zheng and Zhang Song glanced at each other, seeing that Huang Xu's subordinates were so respectful, it seemed to be different from what they imagined.

I saw Huang Xu's subordinates asking the soldiers at the gate, and the soldiers nodded and walked in.

The life of Liu Zhang's father and son in Hanzhong is much better than Zhang Song and Fa Zheng imagined.

Since Liu Zhang was the former Yizhou pastor and had a huge role in the conquest of Liu Bei, Liu Yu instructed Huang Xu to treat Liu Zhang preferentially, and at the same time not to give Liu Zhang too many restrictions. Because Liu Yu knew that Liu Zhang was under house arrest in Liu Bei, if he was placed under house arrest again in Hanzhong, he would definitely feel uncomfortable, and he would not work too hard to serve himself.

Is this the reason why Liu Yu treats Liu Zhang so favorably? Not at all.

The fundamental reason why Liu Yu really treats Liu Zhang preferentially is that when Liu Zhang was in Yizhou, he was very kind to the people of Yizhou. It was because of this that Liu Bei did not dare to be unfavorable to Liu Zhang. If he was born in the Taiping era, Liu Zhang would definitely be a good official.

When Liu Zhang's father and son saw such a large mansion, almost no one was watching them. Liu Zhang can go wherever he wants, and he doesn't need to report and send someone to follow. As long as you don't go out of the range of Hanzhong City, Liu Zhang can go anywhere.

The reason why Liu Zhang was not allowed to leave Hanzhong City was that he was worried about the safety outside the city, and Liu Zhang himself did not want to go to such a dangerous place outside the city.

In that familiar and unfamiliar place in Chengdu, Liu Zhang was monitored by Liu Bei's people day and night. After coming to Hanzhong, Liu Zhang had the same feeling of freedom as before. There is no harm if there is no comparison, and the free life in Hanzhong makes Liu Zhang hate Liu Bei even more. is also using Liu Zhang to see how the Shenwu Imperial Court treats people and how Liu Bei treats him. Liu Zhang made up his mind to serve the court well and take revenge on Liu Bei.

And now Liu Zhang is throwing the fish food in his hand into the fish pond in the mansion, looking at the fish that are swarming to grab food.

Watching the fish rolling, Liu Zhang's mood was very good. The eldest son, Liu Xun, has now entered the army of Liu Jun in Hanzhong and has become a captain. The strong are respected in the army, and Liu Xun was quickly recognized by the officers and men in the army with his own strength, and he just gained a firm foothold. The second son, Liu Xian, was studying in the study at this time, constantly improving his knowledge. After experiencing Liu Bei's usurpation of Yizhou, Liu Yan has already woken up to how stupid he was back then, wasting his good youth, and at a critical moment, he had no ability at all. Now Liu Yan has to study hard to make up for the time wasted in the past.

Both sons have entered the right path, and Liu Zhang, as a father, is very pleased.

What made Liu Zhang happiest was that Liu Zhang's wife was found by the "dark department" and was safely sent to Hanzhong a few days ago to reunite with Liu Zhang's family.

In the past, Liu Zhang felt that power, wealth, and reputation were the most important.

Now Liu Zhang doesn't want to ask for anything, he just thinks that it is best for the family to spend their lives peacefully now.

Liu Zhang is very satisfied with his current life.

And the soldiers outside the door came in to report, saying that there were old people in Yizhou.

"The old man of Yizhou? Could it be Zi Qiao and them?! Take me there! "Life has changed for the better, there are not so many calculations, and Liu Zhang's mind has improved a lot.

In addition, the soldiers in Liu Zhang's mansion were asked by Liu Zhang to arrange a few people for Huang Xu, he didn't want to be watched. Of course, Huang Xu agreed. Except for a few servants and maids, there were not even soldiers patrolling the mansion.

Liu Zhang, under the leadership of the soldiers, strode out and saw Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da waiting outside the door.

"Haha! As I expected! Ziqiao, Xiaozhi, Zidu, you're all here! Liu Zhang walked towards Zhang Song with a smile on his face.

Seeing Liu Zhang's familiar face, Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da were all surprised. When Liu Zhang was under house arrest by Liu Bei in Chengdu before, his expression was very bad and he lost a lot of weight. Now not only is his face full of red light, but his temperament seems to be even better than when he was a pastor in Yizhou.

"See Lord Governor!" Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da subconsciously saluted Liu Zhang.

"What are you talking about! Don't mention it! Come, let's go in and talk. Liu Zhang smiled bitterly, he is still a state pastor, just an idler with no important position.

From Liu Zhang's attitude, Zhang Song can keenly feel that Liu Zhang seems to be different from before. It's just that what's different, Zhang Song can't say.

Liu Zhang beckoned Zhang Song and the three of them to enter, and as soon as they entered the gate, Liu Zhang instructed his servants to prepare a banquet immediately, and he wanted to have a glass of wine with Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da.

Meng Da hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't be so polite, my lord!" ”

It's not that Meng Da is embarrassed, but they have already eaten and drunk a lot at Huang Xu's place just now, and if they drink again now, I'm afraid they won't be able to stand it.

Liu Zhang's face was a little unhappy and said, "Zidu, do you still dislike it?" Needless to say, if you don't get drunk today, you won't go home! ”

Zhang Song and Fa Zheng glanced at each other at the same time, it seems that during these days in Hanzhong, Liu Zhang has changed dramatically, and his mind has become different, and he is much more heroic than before.

Liu Zhang's servants only listened to Liu Zhang, and Liu Zhang asked them to prepare a banquet, and they all complied.

Throughout the ages, isn't interpersonal communication just eating and drinking? Liu Zhang kindly feasted Zhang Song and them, even if Zhang Song and them couldn't eat, they still needed to appreciate it.

After all, Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da were not kind enough before, and betrayed Liu Zhang, from a psychological level, they just felt a little guilty.

After a short time, Liu Zhang brought Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da to the hall.

And Liu Zhang's second son, Liu Xian, also came out. Zhang Song can be regarded as the life-saving benefactor of Liu Zhang's family, Liu Xian needs to come out to express his gratitude, and kowtow again and again.

Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da didn't dare to accept Liu Yan's gift, they were empty-hearted.

No matter what, Liu Yan expressed his gratitude, and then left. The grace of saving his life must be repaid, but the hatred of rebellion, Liu Xian also remembers it clearly, and he doesn't want to have too much intersection with Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da.

Human beings are such contradictory beings.

After some work, the servants brought the banquet to the table.

The dishes are very hearty and will whet your appetite.

But Zhang Song, who was satisfied with the stomach, couldn't eat anything.

"My lord, are you okay in Hanzhong?" Zhang Song, as an old man who has followed Liu Zhang for many years, took the lead in asking for warmth.

The smile on Liu Zhang's face did not fade, and he said: "It's much better than in Yizhou." In Hanzhong, I felt true freedom. There is nothing to worry about, and it is natural to live a relaxed and freehand life. ”

What Liu Zhang said is true, he has gained a lot of weight in recent days.

It can be seen that Liu Zhang is satisfied with his current life, and Zhang Song's sense of guilt is much less. Liu Zhang will definitely be rewarded by the imperial court in the future, and Zhang Song, as a family member, does not want to offend Liu Zhang to death.

Liu Zhang looked at Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da, and had a little guess in his heart, but he didn't want to hide it, and asked, "The three of you have all come out of Yizhou, presumably Your Majesty's army is about to arrive." It's been hard for you all these years. ”

Zhang Song was a little embarrassed, how to answer this.

Fa Zheng didn't have so many scruples, and said directly: "Don't say that, adult. Good birds choose trees to perch, and it is only natural for us to serve the imperial court. We are also very fortunate to be able to save the adult family. ”

Fa Zheng's words were a little offended by Liu Zhang, but Liu Zhang didn't care now.

"I won't say much about the past! I am already idle, and my only hope is that I have two sons who are not successful, and I need Ziqiao, Xiaozhi, and Zidu to take care of them more in the future. "Liu Zhang has the posture of erasing everything in the past.

Liu Zhang is so bold, Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da can't be too restrained. A few people from Yizhou drank it well.

The wine table is the best place to talk, and after Liu Zhang drank too much, he also vented a lot of his depression that he had suffered from Zhang Song before.

Zhang Song is also helpless. That's exactly what he did.

Similarly, neither Fa Zheng nor Meng Da escaped Liu Zhang's complaints.

The banquet was a bit noisy, but it was very warm. Liu Zhang is now getting along with Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da on an equal footing.

In the end, Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da were a little overwhelmed and had to leave.

And Liu Zhang didn't let them leave, and directly arranged rooms for Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da in his mansion. Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da instantly felt that something was wrong.

"It's all said that if you don't get drunk, you won't return! Enough drinks today! If you don't drink, you won't give me face! "Liu Zhang seems to have drunk too much.

Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da knew that Liu Zhang wanted to get them drunk today, so they let out a bad breath in their hearts. But if it was said that Liu Zhang wanted to kill them, Zhang Song and the others thought that if they gave Liu Zhang a hundred guts, they would not do such a thing.

Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da drank some wine, couldn't stand Liu Zhang's stimulation, and finally turned their hearts sideways, Liu Zhang was not afraid of getting drunk, what were they afraid of, and they went straight to Liu Zhang. It was impossible for Liu Zhang to get all three of them drunk by himself. In their impression, Liu Zhang has never been strong enough to drink. Now if you want to get them drunk, you are simply drinking too high, and you can't do it yourself.

In this way, the banquet was drunk until the evening, and Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da were drunk directly in front of the wine table. But Liu Zhang looked at the drunk three people with a smile like no one else.

Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da miscalculated this time.

"Regardless of your skillful strategy, today you are still defeated by my hands!" Liu Zhang said to himself.
