Chapter 112: Surrounding the Mansion with Swordsmen (Ten updates, please order first!)
Liu Zhang, who is nearly sixty years old, usually goes to bed very early after the weather turns into winter.
And in Liu Zhang's dormitory where he was snoring slightly, there were many paintings he had completed next to his bed.
Among the many paintings, there is one painting that has just been painted in the middle, so it is placed in the most conspicuous place.
This conspicuous place was enough to ensure that Liu Zhang came with him and saw the painting he had not completed yesterday, thus reminding him to continue painting today.
But just when Liu Zhang was immersed in sleep, recalling all the details of his previous stay in Yizhou, bursts of loud shouts suddenly sounded outside his room.
Liu Zhang was old and his sleep was light.
Now he was disturbed by the shouts outside the room and soon woke up from his sleep.
Liu Zhang, who was awakened from his sweet dream, naturally had an angry look on his face.
In his dream just now, he dreamed of his father and elder brothers whom he had not seen for a long time.
He misses his family ties and has not seen any of his relatives for a long time.
Now that the dream that he had longed for in the past was awakened, even Liu Zhang, who had always had a gentle personality, could not help but feel a little sullen.
Liu Zhang was about to scold the servants outside the door, but at this moment he saw bright lights and figures flashing outside his door.
This scene made Liu Zhang's heart sink.
Although Liu Zhang was weak, he was once a prince in a town and experienced a lot of ups and downs.
With rich experience, he subconsciously realized that people outside were not good.
Thinking of this, Liu Zhang's face showed a look of fear at first, but he soon calmed down.
As the leader of a subjugated country, Liu Zhang had actually made some preparations in his mind.
After Liu Zhang got up, he lit the candle in the room.
And when the candlelight in the room was lit, the shouting outside the door also stopped in time.
After Liu Zhang finished holding the lights and dressing up in the room, he walked straight to the door and opened it.
As soon as he opened the door, he immediately saw more than a hundred elites stationed outside his door.
The guards outside his door had already been subdued by more than a hundred elites and fell to their knees.
After seeing Liu Zhang come out, Mi Yang, who was among more than a hundred elites in Jingzhou, took the initiative to bow to Liu Zhang. He said to Liu Zhang: "Mi Yang, the former general in chief, pays homage to General Zhenwei."
Although it is suspected that there is some connection between Liu Zhang and Liu Chan and his son, Liu Zhang has a special status after all and is a being that Liu Bei must treat with courtesy.
Therefore, even if he is Mi Yang, he still has to pay homage to Liu Zhang at this time.
After Mi Yang walked up to Liu Zhang and announced his identity, Liu Zhang took advantage of the firelight in the courtyard and looked at Mi Yang carefully.
It was the 16th year of Jian'an when Liu Bei entered Shu. Mi Yang was twelve years old at that time, which was considered a young man.
Although Mi Yang has grown a lot from his youth to his current adulthood, his appearance is not much different from his youth.
It's just because the frame has become larger and the face has become more mature and stable.
Because Liu Bei doted on Mi Yang, when Liu Bei entered Shu, he not only brought Mi Yang with him into Shu, but even kept Mi Yang by his side all day long, treating him as his nephew.
Liu Zhang overlapped in his mind the image of the young general in front of him with the image of the shy young man who poured wine for him outside Fucheng.
Then he sighed and said, "When I was a young wine boy, I didn't expect to be so majestic today!"
Liu Zhang's words were full of emotion.
I think back then, he was still the lord of Yizhou, and his status was higher than Mi Yang's lord Liu Bei.
Now, he has become a general in name only.
However, the drunkards back then were able to lead troops to surround him. It is really sad that current events are causing trouble.
But after sighing with emotion, Liu Zhang then asked Mi Yang, "Zisheng, why did you surround my general's mansion with your troops this time?"
Liu Zhang's tone was very indifferent. Having experienced the ups and downs of life, he had already seen through many things.
He saw that although Mi Yang came with troops, he was still very respectful to him, so Liu Zhang also called Mi Yang by name.
As soon as Liu Zhang's question came out, Mi Yang replied unhurriedly, "There is a small disturbance in the police city tonight."
"Before I entered Shu, the king told me to take more care of the general."
"My little intention is to subvert the public security tonight. The situation in the city is unstable, so I specially led the troops to guard the general."
Mi Yang originally led his troops to see if Liu Zhang had participated in Liu Chan's rebellion.
Now it seems that, according to his judgment, Liu Zhang should not know about Liu Chan's rebellion.
Because if Liu Zhang also participated in Liu Chan's rebellion, then Liu Zhang should be the mastermind in terms of identity and influence.
When the mastermind saw him coming with his troops, he should have a panicked and anxious look on his face as if the conspiracy had been discovered.
At least he would pretend to be calm and scold himself a few words in an attempt to get through.
But now there is no such look on Liu Zhang's face.
More importantly, Liu Zhang was still sleeping when Mi Yang came with his troops.
At this time, Mi Yang was close in front of Liu Zhang, and the blurred feeling and eye mucus in his eyes after waking up were still clearly visible.
Let me ask, which mastermind can still sleep soundly on the night of the rebellion?
Sima Yi couldn't even do it.
What's more, the person in front of me is Liu Zhang, who has a weak character and doesn't have much wealth.
Although Mi Yang will not look down upon any named person in history, he will not speculate too much or demonize those people in history.
When Mi Yang said this, Liu Zhang saw that Mi Yang's words were sincere and her face was sincere, and did not seem to be deceiving, so he believed Mi Yang's words.
Seeing that Mi Yang's visit was not malicious, Liu Zhang felt more relaxed.
A smile immediately appeared on his wrinkled face.
"Don't worry, Zisheng. Although I am old, I still have many guards in my house. I can still protect myself against ordinary young men."
"Zisheng is the chief of the public security. He is responsible for guarding the public security. There is no need to focus on an idle person like me."
"Please also lead the troops back to the county government and take charge of the overall public security situation."
After finishing speaking, Liu Zhang was about to go back to his room to continue sleeping.
With his heart at peace, he still wanted to continue dreaming to find his relatives.
But just as Liu Zhang turned around, Mi Yang asked Liu Zhang, "I wonder if the general knows where Mr. Ling is now?"
Upon hearing Mi Yang's question, Liu Zhang immediately stopped.
Yes, why don't you see Chan'er?
A son is better than his father. With a good education, Liu Chan is a filial man.
Now that Mi Yang led his troops into the palace, Liu Chan, who had always been hostile to Liu Bei, should have thought that Mi Yang was going to be harmful to him after getting this news.
According to his character, he will definitely lead troops to protect himself.
But now, what about others?
Liu Zhang turned to look at Mi Yang. He knew that Mi Yang must know something that he didn't know by asking this question.
Facing Liu Zhang's doubtful gaze, Mi Yang said calmly,
"If Yang's prediction is correct, Mr. Ling should have been captured by Guan Xiaowei by now."
