Chapter 48

Lu Meng nodded and was about to say something was wrong and wait for tomorrow when he heard Liu Xie's voice coming from inside, "Zi Ming, is it Gongheng? Come in!"

"Your Majesty! Haven't you fall asleep yet?" Lu Meng looked at Liu Xie in surprise.

Liu Xie rubbed his temples and smiled bitterly, "I can't sleep! When I close my eyes, there were those desolate crying sounds, and those resentful eyes that wished I could swallow me alive! Although I did not kill people directly, my hands were covered with innocent blood!"

"Your Majesty, don't think too much about those who deserve to die! If you want to blame, blame their families for being rebelled and causing trouble!" Lu Meng advised.

Liu Xie waved his hand and smiled bitterly, "What's the point of not knowing, but some things are not subject to human will!" After pausing, he said again, "Let's change the place tomorrow! I always feel that this Pang Mansion is too heavy!"

"Here!"

"Mongheng, is there something urgent?"

"There is no urgent matter, but there is a happy matter!"

"Oh? Let's hear it!"

"This is a good news from Langzhong!" Huang Quan handed over a roll of bamboo tube, pointed to the soldier outside the door, and said, "This is the one who conveys the good news!"

"Tell him in!"

"Here!"

After reading the good news and hearing the soldier's description, Liu Xie couldn't help but laugh.

"Gongheng! You can go to Cheng's mansion to relax your old love Cheng. He has given birth to a good son!"

"Then, I'm going now?"

"Go and go! I can sleep now, well, I can finally have a stable sleep!"

……………………

The next day, Cheng Ji came to pay a visit. He knew that his son had made great contributions in Langzhong. He was also happy about this. At least, the Cheng family had been saved!

Liu Xie was writing a letter to Guo Jia and Jia Xu, asking Guo Jia to lead people to the country, and then he led his troops to Dianjiang to support Liu Paopu in Jiangzhou. However, the pressure on Jiameng Pass would become increasingly greater, and he scored some of his troops to Jiameng Pass to support Zhang Ren. At the same time, he asked Jia Xu to go to Jiameng Pass to be a military advisor, and let him decide on all actions.

After sending the reply letter to someone to send it away, Liu Xie looked up at Cheng Ji and said, "Have Cheng Aiqing used food?"

"The criminal has used it!"

"Okay! Cheng Ji obeyed the order!" Liu Xie sat upright and said, "Cheng Ji helped me to quell the rebellion. Now he was specially appointed as the prefect of Brazil, to guard the herds for me, and to farm and support the people..." He paused and said, "In addition, the land, family wealth, tenant farmers of those killed families, Cheng Aiqing sent someone to calculate the land and give it to tenant farmers without land. It can be followed by the laws I issued before. If other aristocratic families want to reach out to me and kill it, they will be filled with military pay..."

"Sinner, thank Your Majesty for your kindness! Long live my emperor!" Cheng Ji burst into tears and knelt on the ground. He did not expect that this time he would be blessed in disguise.

Liu Xie said seriously: "If I really want to thank me, I will manage the Brazilian land for me. I believe that Cheng Aiqing knows better than me in his heart. I cannot touch their existing land and tenants, but I am not allowed to touch my things. Does Cheng Aiqing understand what I mean?"

Cheng Ji nodded and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty! I understand that I will not disappoint Your Majesty! I still have hundreds of acres of fertile land in my family, so I can also take it out..."

Liu Xie laughed and said, "Cheng Aiqing is intent. A hundred acres of fertile land is not a lot. Compared with other aristocratic families, it can be said that it is a waste of money! How can I lose my heart? In this way, I will give you another thousand acres of fertile land and a thousand taels of gold... However, those who do business in the family of the love are not allowed to do business in Brazil!"

"My me, obey the order! Thank you for your great gift!"

Collusion between officials and businessmen is inevitable. Therefore, even if Liu Xie wants to stop it, he cannot stop it. Moreover, it is not the time for drastic reforms, so he can only do some superficial skills and give them a preconceived idea first.

After giving Hanchang everything, Liu Xie picked out two thousand young and strong men from Pang Xi's original six thousand soldiers in Hanchang County, with nearly two thousand priests, as well as the one thousand strong soldiers who had already filled Zhou Cang, and Liu Xie's five or six hundred Shenwu Guards, and on the next day, he went to Dangqu.

...

At this time, Dangqu County was under the control of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. When Dangqu Ling saw Liu Xie’s three thousand soldiers coming, Dangqu Ling, with less than a thousand soldiers, directly ordered the city gate to close and wanted to resist stubbornly, but was killed by the county magistrate.

He didn't care about the others. At this time, if he resisted stubbornly, how long could he fight? Instead of doing this, it would be better to make meritorious service and save his life first. Even when he was surrendering, he tied up the Dangquling family and waited for Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to fall.

However, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu knew the importance of it, so they did not easily send Dangquling's family, but began to discuss whether to take down Xuanhan County in one go. So they found Deng Zhi. They originally didn't want to discuss it with Deng Zhi, but when they thought that if they suffered a loss in Xuanhan, they would have no credit for taking Dangqu, and it would be better if Liu Xie was not angry.

Deng Zhi and Luo Yuan came to Guan Zhang together. After hearing the two generals Guan and Zhang's opinions, they were stunned and finally chuckled.

Seeing Deng Zhi's smile, a cold light flashed in Guan Yu's eyes. Zhang Fei directly slapped the table and said, "Does Deng Junshi think the words of my old Zhang and my second brother are ridiculous?"

Luo Yuan, who was tall and tall, heard this scene and hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "The two generals misunderstood. Military Advisor Deng laughed because the two generals and Military Advisor Deng thought of going together! At that time, Military Advisor Deng was discussing this matter with me, but I and Military Advisor Deng didn't understand the two generals, for fear that the two generals would misunderstand!"

It is hard for this barbarian general to be a peacemaker for these three of them. It is so tiring that he, a rough man, does such delicate work!

Deng Zhi smiled and said, "Don't worry, two generals, Deng also knows that his family is guilty, so he needs enough credit to make merit. But if the two generals don't help, Deng will not be able to succeed! It was because Deng would discuss with Luo Sima at that time. Xuan Han is not far away, but there are more than a thousand soldiers guarding the city. In addition, the county magistrate of Xuan Han County, Wang Ju is Pang Xi's in-laws, so Wang Ju will definitely not let us take Xuan Han easily..."

Guan Yu's face was a little slower, and he nodded, "What the military advisor mean is that Wang Ju is very powerful in Xuanhan, and may he send private soldiers to defend the city?"

"That's what Deng means!" Deng Zhi nodded and said, "The two generals also know that if there are two thousand soldiers guarding the city, we will not be able to capture it without six thousand soldiers. Although there are only one thousand soldiers in Xuanhan County, it is not easy for us to wait for only three thousand soldiers and horses, so it is not easy to take it down. If Wang Ju pulls out his nearly a thousand private soldiers to help defend, then the pressure we will be even greater..."

"Why don't you know what Military Advisor Deng has?" Zhang Fei said in anger.

By the way, what he hated the most was the private soldiers of these aristocratic families! Earlier in Xuzhou, he suffered a lot from the private soldiers of these aristocratic families.

Deng Zhi smiled and said, "This is the reason why Deng asked Luo Sima to discuss it. There are many people in Brazil. Previously, Pang Xi saw that the monks were brave and good at fighting, so he vigorously attracted monks and formed monks. In fact, in addition to Luo Sima and others, many monks joined the army in various counties in Brazil. Xuanhan County is no exception. Luo Sima, among the monks, is called the first warrior. I believe that as long as Luo Sima sent people to Xuanhan, he would get a lot of results! Luo Sima also agreed before. Deng was about to discuss this matter with two generals! Unexpectedly, the two generals also thought of Xuanhan..."

Zhang Fei was stunned and laughed: "It's true that the heroes have the same views! Then, military advisor, don't blame me for being so arrogant before. I, Lao Zhang, just a little anxious! If you have anything, Lao Zhang can't hold it in!"

Guan Yu also bowed to Deng Zhi with his hands. He didn't say much, and being able to lower his airs so lowly would be considered as giving Deng Zhi face.

Deng Zhi was also easy to speak and waved his hand and said, "It's okay, so let's discuss it carefully?"

"Yes! My old Zhang is listening to the military advisor this time!"
