Bian Yu was not sure whether Liu Xin was alive or dead. Ma Yun went out in a hurry and did not tell them what happened in the space. She was also very anxious inside, but she knew that there should be no chaos at this time. Once chaos broke out, there would be chaos.
Out of control. Bian Yu wiped the tears on his face, touched up his makeup, and with the help of Ying'er, he went to sit down in the front hall and ordered: "Bring all the people outside here."
Even though people like Ju Shou, Tian Feng, Xu Huang, and Zhao Yun cannot be sure of Liu Xin's life or death, their loyalty to Liu Xin is unquestionable. There are two types of people who cause the most ferocity, they are all petty officials and gentry. One.
One type is those with vested interests. They very much welcome the policies implemented by Liu Xin and are very worried about changes in policies after Jingzhou Mu is replaced. The other type is the opposite. Liu Xin's policies have harmed their interests and they need to take advantage of the change of Jingzhou Mu.
A sudden change came. As for ordinary people, most of them support Liu Xin, but they have little say. Even if the real high-ranking officials and nobles have any ideas, at most they are only manipulating behind the scenes, not
Will jump to the front desk.
These people came to the lobby of the Prefectural Shepherd's Mansion and saw a beautiful young woman sitting in front of them. The woman had a big belly and was quite inconvenient to move. It seemed that she didn't have many days left before giving birth.
Those who knew her well knew that she was Liu Xin's second wife, and those who didn't knew her could not help but look down upon her and kept to themselves, whispering below.
Bian Yu suppressed her uneasiness about Liu Xin's fate, stood up with strength, and said to everyone: "My husband's life and death cannot be determined by just a few rumors. If the rumors are lies made up by others, you
Therefore, we are clamoring to confirm the new state pastor. If my husband comes back safely tomorrow, how can you see him? You are all people of status and knowledge. For the sake of temporary benefits, you have given up your lifelong reputation and integrity. Don’t you think so?
Ashamed?"
Everyone looked at each other in shock, being rendered speechless by Bian Yu, and left one after another. Just as everyone was leaving, Cai Mao's wife also hurriedly walked out of the back door of the Prefecture Mufu. She was here to take Cai Jue home, but
Cai Jue was very determined to stay, so she had no choice but to give up.
As usual, Ma Yun returned to the mansion in the evening. There was not a single person waiting in front of the mansion, and she regained her composure. After learning about Bian Yu's actions today, Ma Yun took her hand and said gratefully: "
Sisters working together can be as sharp as metal. As long as we join hands, there will be no obstacle that we cannot overcome."
But Bian Yu looked sad and said: "Sister, I don't believe that something will happen to me. But now there are rumors flying all over the sky. When I first heard about it, I was also very confused. There must be someone deliberately causing trouble here. Sister, you must be on guard!"
"
Ma Yun nodded and said: "Sister, you are right, we don't care about his life or death. The first thing now is to stabilize the situation in Xiangyang!"
Why did the news of Liu Xin's death in the attack spread so quickly in Xiangyang? In fact, this was a plan that Zhang Ren had already made. He calculated that he should be able to attack Xiangyang City today, so he had people sneak into the city.
, spreading rumors. These people who sneaked into the city did not know that Zhang Ren had been defeated by Huang Zhong, they just acted according to the plan.
In the evening, Jushuo sent news that rumors were about to break out again. Ma Yun decisively ordered the most severe measures to be taken. Anyone who dared to spread rumors again would be punished as a bandit. Zhao Yun's fourth legion was also transferred into the city.
Patrolling everywhere. In one night, more than 40 households in the city were ransacked, and hundreds of bloody heads were hung on the city gates. Under such strong suppression, the rumors that Liu Xin was attacked and killed gradually stopped.
Even though I live there, there are still people who are secretly talking behind my back.
Although the rumors were temporarily stopped, Ma Yun could not calm down. It was not until three days later that a horse came to report that Liu Xin and his party had arrived safely in Guiyang and would return to Xiangyang in the near future. She was completely relieved.
, couldn't help but burst into tears.
In Chengdu's Prefectural Mufu, Liu Yan threw a pile of bamboo slips to the ground in annoyance. He had already received the news of the emperor's death. Ma Yun sent two groups of messengers. The first group met Wang Wei and the others because they got lost and were attacked.
Zhu Bao's surprise attack led to an unexpected death. The second group did not get lost, but fell into Zhu Bao's hands. The messengers captured by Zhu Bao knew the news of the emperor's death, so the news reached Liu Yan's hands.
Liu Yan regretted very much that he did not listen to the advice of Zhang Song and others and detained Liu Xin, thereby losing a great opportunity to occupy Jingzhou. He was even more angry that Zhang Song, Zhu Bao, and Zhang Ren dared to act without authorization, and the operation failed.
Now, according to the news from Guiyang, Liu Xin has escaped from danger. Although Liu Xin has been keeping a low profile in recent years, judging from his actions in the past few years, this person is definitely not easy to get along with. Liu Yanbujue
His head was as big as a bucket, he was sweating profusely, and he became seriously ill.
After many twists and turns, Liu Xin finally returned to the Prefectural Shepherd's Mansion. He thought he would receive a warm welcome like a hero, but he found that none of his women spoke to him, and everyone who saw him had a long face.
Liu Xin didn't know why, and he was holding back his anger, and thought bitterly, you are ignoring me, and there are still sisters Ling'er here. This time in Zoke County, sisters Ling'er can be said to have shared the joys and sorrows with him.
After entering the scene, the relationship naturally went to a higher level. Who knew that the two sisters changed their expressions after entering the backyard and stopped paying attention to him.
No one paid attention to him, so Liu Xin had to sit alone in the study and sulk. Qiaoer came in and said, "Master, Madam, please come."
Liu Xin walked into the room excitedly, but saw that something was wrong. Ma Yun sat upright with a sullen face. Bian Yu, Cai Yan, and Zhu Qian sat on both sides with their big bellies, and they also looked serious. Liu Xin looked at
I looked around and saw that there was no fifth chair in the room. It turned out that I didn't even have my own seat.
Ma Yun raised her eyelids slightly and said, "Liu Xin, let me ask you, where is this?"
Seeing that she was finally willing to talk to him, Liu Xin said with a smile on her face: "This is my home. Wife, what happened today? I want a three-party trial."
Ma Yun sneered: "Humph, I knew this was your home, but I thought you had forgotten it. To be honest, what were you doing in Zoke?"
Liu Xin knew that if she was willing to talk to him, there would be no big problem, so he said with a playful smile: "What can I do? Why don't I just go and see the Three Surnames Alliance?"
Ma Yun's face became serious and she said: "To put it nicely, I think I went to pick up girls, and now my uncle has come to the door. It's just about picking up girls, and I almost risked my life."
Liu Xin shouted that she was wronged: "Picking up girls? Returning favor to uncle and eldest brother? Absolutely nothing!"
Ma Yun waved her hand and said angrily: "Let's not talk about this for now. Let me ask you, you only care about your own happiness. Have you ever thought about us? And the children?"
Liu Xin's face was full of innocence: "I didn't, I think about you all the time."
Ma Yun stood up excitedly and said, "Then have you ever thought about what we will do if you are no longer here?"
Her face was full of anger, but she couldn't stop the tears from flowing down. Bian Yu and the others also burst into tears. Only then did Liu Xin understand why they were angry. She bowed and said, "Okay, okay, it's all my fault."
, this will never happen again!”
Zhu Qian was the most particular about dignity. If it hadn't been for Ma Yun's repeated request, she would never have dared to let Liu Xin stand. Instead, she sat on a chair. When she heard Liu Xin's soft words, she had already stood up and choked with sobs.
He said: "Master, please sit down and talk."
Liu Xin had never seen anything like this before. She immediately hit the snake and followed it with a stick. She walked over and said, "Qian'er is better. You know I've been very tired these past few days. My feet are soaked."
Upon hearing this, Cai Yan quickly said: "Husband, are you in pain? Please ask Mr. Zhang to come and take a look."
At this time, Liu Xin had regained her composure, holding the two of them by the hands and asking: "Tell me, have you been good or not during the past few days when the master is not at home?"
Ma Yun and Bian Yu looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly. They originally wanted to scold him, but they were spoiled by these two unsteady-willed guys.
Early the next morning, Jushu and Tian Feng were called to the study by Liu Xin. Liu Xin carefully read the imperial edict from beginning to end and asked: "Gong Yuan Hao, what do you think of this matter?"
These two days, the two of them have been thinking about this edict a lot. Jushou has already seen some clues, and he is no longer disappointed at the beginning. He smiled and said: "Back to my lord, I think there are some problems with this edict. If you let your lord assist the new king,
, but did not appoint a capital position to the lord, I am afraid there is something wrong in this."
Tian Feng cupped his hands and said, "What Mr. Gongyu said is right. I think something might happen in the capital, otherwise the late emperor would not make such arrangements."
Of course, Liu Xin knew that changes were about to happen in the capital, and they were big changes, so he nodded and said: "In this case, you two gentlemen must make preparations in advance. If any thieves dare to cause trouble, I, Liu Xin, will go to the capital."
King Qin!"
Ju Shou and Tian Feng looked at each other and they all understood. Then Liu Xin, who was bold and courageous at the beginning, stood up and said: "I will obey the Lord's order."
Liu Xin waved her hand and said: "Put aside the matters in the capital for the time being. This time I went to Zoke County and met with the Han and barbarian families to coexist peacefully. Who would have thought that Liu Yan, a villain, would suddenly plot against me and kill hundreds of people?"
My son lost his life in Jiuquan. If I don’t avenge this revenge, I swear I won’t be a human being!”
Jushou cupped his hands and said, "My lord, General Huang Zhong's troops have captured three county towns in Ba County and captured the enemy general Lei Tong. He doesn't know about my lord's safety and doesn't dare to move lightly. Please give me further instructions."
Liu Xin already knew this news yesterday. He breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Inform Huang Zhong to take action. Didn't Liu Yan always say that there was a rebellion in Bajun and he couldn't keep up with the court? Then I will send someone to help him calm it down."
Rebellion! Also, although I am not the governor of Yizhou, I am still the governor of the state. Zhu Bao actually wants to take my life. How can I live up to the hundreds of dead soldiers if I don’t kill him! I have asked Zhang Fei to lead the army to attack Zangke
, there should be news coming soon."
Tian Feng laughed and said: "The barbarian leader of Zoke actually sent his eldest son here. They must not dare to help Zhu Bao."
