Chapter 32 Beware of Fraud

Chapter 32 Be careful of fraud

Under the leadership of Zhao Sui, Mi Yang entered the public security city unimpeded.

Zhao Sui also kept Shiren's instructions in mind. As long as Mi Yang entered the city alone, he could be trusted.

So after he led Mi Yang into the city, he immediately brought Mi Yang into the county government office in Gong'an City.

In the room where Mi Zhong met Shiren not long ago, Mi Yang also saw Shiren, who had been waiting there for a long time.

In addition, he also saw Mi Zhong who was being controlled by Shiren's personal guards.

When she saw this scene, Mi Yang felt secretly nervous.

When Shiren, who was sitting in his seat, saw Zhao Sui bringing Mi Yang in front of him, he

At this time, he already had some faith in Mi Yang's intentions.

He immediately stood up from his seat, came to Mi Yang with a big smile, and hugged him.

He smiled boldly and said, "My dear nephew, you are finally here."

After Shiren finished speaking, he enthusiastically patted Mi Yang on the back several times to show his closeness.

However, Shiren's move accidentally touched the wound on Mi Yang's arm. In pain, Mi Yang did not dare to cry out in pain.

He could only cough violently a few times to cover up his pain.

When Shiren saw Mi Yang being patted several times by him, he began to cough violently. Seeing that his face was extremely pale, he couldn't help but feel contempt for Mi Yang.

"It is said that Mi Zi Sheng has been in constant pain since he entered Jingzhou. Now it seems that the rumors are true."

Although he felt contempt for Mi Yang in his heart, Shiren was a businessman and he was very good at appearance.

Besides, Mi Yang is the son of his rich man, and now he still has important things to report to him.

Shiren pretended to be concerned and asked Mi Yang, "Is my nephew okay?"

Seeing Shiren's face full of anger and hypocrisy, Mi Yang felt a little nauseous.

But for the sake of his big plan, he could only hold back the nausea in his heart for the time being, and replied with a look of honor on his face,

"Thank you for your concern, uncle. I'm fine. I'm just a bit infected with the cold."

Shiren is a nephew and Mi Yang is an uncle, which invisibly brings the relationship between the two closer.

Hearing Mi Yang say that he had contracted the cold on the road, a look of concern appeared on Shiren's face.

He took Mi Yang's hand and took her to the banquet in the room to sit down. Then he ordered his servants to light a stove in the room to keep Mi Yang away from the cold.

In such a large room, the crackling sound of the fire sounded particularly clear and audible.

After Mi Yang sat down, Shiren also came and sat down opposite Mi Yang. Then he squinted his eyes and tried his best to look at Mi Yang.

He was very concerned about the confidential information Mi Yang wanted to report.

He was waiting for Mi Yang to take the initiative to tell him.

But at this time, Mi Yang was being unreasonable. After looking around at the surrounding environment, he said to Shiren,

"Uncle, there are many people talking, and there are some confidential matters that should not be discussed lightly."

Just as Mi Yang said, there were not only Mi Yang and Shiren in the room at this moment, but also many of Shiren's personal guards.

After Mi Yang finished speaking, Shiren looked around and felt that such an environment was indeed not suitable for discussing confidential matters.

He was about to ask everyone to go out, but his eyes accidentally glanced at the sword on Mi Yang's waist.

Mi Yang looked at his eyes and knew what he meant. He took the initiative to take off the sword from his waist and handed it to Shiren's bodyguard.

When Shiren saw Mi Yang being so calm, the last trace of hesitation in his heart disappeared, and he immediately ordered all the other people in the room to go out.

Shiren felt that he was a military general, and Mi Yang was frail and sick. Now that he had taken the initiative to hand over his weapons, there was really nothing to worry about.

After everyone else left, the door to the house was firmly closed from the outside.

Mi Yang quickly glanced around the room and saw that the room seemed empty because there were no other furnishings.

But because of this, all major movements in the room will be invisibly amplified and detected by outsiders.

Mi Yang secretly observed the distance between Shiren and herself, and found that Shiren was very close to her, so close that she could reach him with just one step.

At this moment, Mi Yang's heart flashed with intense anger.

Although his weapons have been handed over, Shiren, as a military general, still has a broadsword hanging on his waist.

As long as he makes a sudden attack and makes calculations mentally but not intentionally, then with his young skills, it is not impossible to capture Shiren with one blow.

But just when Mi Yang's heart was getting more and more violent, the sound of armor caused by the movement of Shiren's guards outside the door calmed him down.

Even if he could hit Shiren with one hit, what would happen after he was captured?

Those outside the door are all close friends of Shiren, and share weal and woe with Shiren.

Shiren was killed by himself, and they would rush in immediately when they heard the noise.

When they saw that they had killed Shiren, they were instantly angry. It was very possible for them to kill themselves to avenge Shiren.

Although Mi Yang considers himself to be a good eloquent person, he is afraid that others will not give him a chance to speak for a while.

Mi Yang entered the city alone this time and had many plans, although he also expected the worst one.

But unless it was absolutely necessary, he would not take that step.

Many considerations in his mind actually happened in just a moment. After thinking about what to do next, Mi Yang's face suddenly showed an anxious look. He said to Shiren opposite,

"Uncle, you are about to be in trouble!"

Mi Yang's first words were such sensational words, which made Shiren's face change greatly, but he was not frightened either.

Shiren asked Mi Yang in a low tone,

"Why did my good nephew say this?"

But at this time, Shiren's face was already very ugly.

Mi Yang responded to Shi Rendao, "I was recently valued by the former general and appointed as his chief, so I was able to participate in his military affairs."

"In a discussion a few days ago, the Jingzhou official Zhao Lei actually slandered the former general.

Uncle Yan, you are secretly disobedient and cannot be trusted, so I suggested that the former general should seize the military power and guard the public security on your behalf."

As soon as Mi Yang said these words, the expression on Shiren's face was so gloomy that he could shed tears.

He almost squeezed out a sentence through his teeth,

"My dear nephew, do you really mean what you say?"

Seeing that Shiren didn't believe it, Mi Yang pretended to be anxious and said,

"Uncle, what is the relationship between your family and ours? We both prosper and suffer. How could I deceive you?

If my uncle makes any mistakes, it will also be a disaster for our Mi family."

Mi Yang's explanation made Shi Ren not doubtful at all, and he believed Mi Yang's words.

After knowing the purpose of Guan Ping's coming, Shi Renqi made a fist with his fist and knocked hard on the table in front of him.

He said angrily, "When I knew that Guan Ping was leading the army, I had doubts in my heart.

Guan Yu had clearly mobilized troops from our city to the front lines many times before, so why did he do the opposite now?

Suddenly troops were sent south to help me defend the city.

Good, it turns out that this is what he reported."

Shiren did not hide his anger at all. Even after knowing Guan Ping's true intention, Shiren did not even think about the last cover-up.

Call Guan Yu directly by his first name,

This was extremely disrespectful to Shiren, who was a subordinate of Guan Yu.

But then, Shiren quickly reacted,

He looked at Mi Yang and asked, "Since you are worshiped by Guan Yu as his master Bo, then he is your benefactor.

If you come here today to tell me his true intentions and disrupt his plans, aren't you afraid that one day he will find out and punish you?"

Hearing Shiren's somewhat questioning words, Mi Yang's face showed sarcasm at the right moment and said,

"Guan Yu will worship me as the leader of his army. It's just a temporary measure."

"It's not like my uncle doesn't know what he said: "You should treat your ears."

"Guan Yu has long wanted to punish my father and uncle, but now he still needs my father to defend his retreat and provide military resources.

That's why he worships me as his master. Isn't he just using this small favor to temporarily spare my father's heart?"

"Even I can see through this little trick, let alone my father."

"So when my father learned the news from me, he ordered me to tell my uncle the news in time.

In case uncle is not prepared to be taken advantage of by that boy Guan Ping."

"My father once told me that Guan Yu had long wanted to punish him and his uncle.

Now he has been granted the power of false ax by the king, and has the power of life and death over both my father and uncle.

At this point, the only person my father can help me with is my uncle!"

When Mi Yang mentioned that Guan Yu had the power of a false ax in his hands, Shiren's inner alarm rang loudly.

Seeing how sincere Mi Yang's words were, and couldn't find any logical flaw,

At this time, he had already regarded Mi Yang and his father Mi Fang as his own people who could collude with them on major things.

Seeing the anxious look on Mi Yang's face, as if he was worried about a catastrophe in the future, Shiren smiled and comforted,

"Don't worry, good nephew,"

"At this point, I'm not afraid to tell you something."

"In fact, during this month, an envoy from Jiangdong came to contact me and asked me to surrender the city to Lord Wu."

"Originally, I still cared about the kindness of your Majesty and hesitated for a while, but now that Guan Yu has already figured it out, I have nothing to hesitate about."

"It was Guan Yu who was unkind to me first. Don't blame me for being unkind today."

Hearing what Shiren said, Mi Yang sneered in her heart.

If you really care about Liu Bei's kindness, then why don't you kill the envoy from Jiangdong?

You shameless betrayer of the Lord,

Bah, I, a big and loyal minister, are at odds with you.

Although he felt disgusted by what Shiren said, Mi Yang still had a look of surprise on his face, but then his expression turned into overjoyed.

"It's great to have Lord Wu help me."

Seeing Mi Yang's reaction, Shiren also tried to persuade Mi Yang,

"Both your father and I are flesh and blood on Guan Yu's chopping board. If I surrender to Lord Wu in the future, without my help, your father will be in extreme danger under Guan Yu's rule.

My dear nephew, why don't you persuade your father to join me in joining Lord Wu."

At this time, Shiren regarded Mi Yang as one of his own, so he wanted to use Mi Yang to win over Mi Fang, who was behind him, to surrender to Soochow.

After all, he could only offer one city to Wu, but if Mi Fang voted to Soochow, he could offer one county.

And as long as he persuaded Mi Fang to surrender to Jiangdong, Sun Quan would definitely record his merits and reward him.

Before he formally surrendered to Sun Quan, Shiren already regarded himself as Sun Quan's loyal minister and thought about Sun Quan in every possible way.

Facing Shiren's temptation, Mi Yang's face showed emotion. After thinking for a while,

He immediately said,

"Okay, since there is no place for my father and son under the command of the King of Hanzhong, I will listen to my uncle's words."

Shiren was overjoyed when he heard that Mi Yang agreed to the matter.

Mi Yang is Mi Fang's only son. As long as Mi Yang is determined to surrender to Jiangdong Sun Quan, with Mi Yang in hand, Shiren will not worry about whether Mi Fang will agree.

At this time, Shiren not only regarded Mi Yang as one of his own, but also regarded Mi Yang as a great achievement.

Shiren's face beamed with joy,

But at this time Mi Yang said, "Although surrendering to Lord Wu is a good thing, my uncle still needs to find a way to deal with Guan Ping outside the city."

When Mi Yang mentioned Guan Ping, the smile on Shiren's face instantly disappeared.

Yes, how could he forget that there is a "soul-seducing messenger" outside the city at this time?

But as for how to deal with Guan Ping, Shiren didn't have any good ideas at the moment.

At this time, Mi Yang saw his dilemma and advised Shiren,

"Although the public security city is dominated by uncles, most of the soldiers in the city are not uncles.

They were just following Guan Yu's order and obeying their uncle. If his uncle did not deal with Guan Ping, once Guan Ping clamored outside the city as Guan Yu's son,

The military morale in the city will inevitably fluctuate, which will be very detrimental to my uncle."

The Jihan military system is not Jiangdong's private military system, so Guan Yu could constantly mobilize troops from the rear before.

The reason is that he can use his authority and prestige to command these rear soldiers at will.

Shiren has been in the army for many years and naturally understands this, but he has no good way to deal with Guan Ping.

Mi Yang saw the embarrassment on Shiren's face and offered his advice,

"The most urgent task is that my uncle should send his trusted followers to control the barracks in the city. This can prevent the barracks from moving."

"Secondly, I can write a letter to lure Guan Ping into the city.

I am Guan Yu's master Bo, and I am Guan Ping's best friend since he was a child. He trusts me quite a lot.

Guan Ping is a man of little intelligence. When he saw my letter, he might have been impulsive and led only a few of his cronies into the city.

At that time, my uncle can easily capture him in the city."

"Thirdly, when I came here this time, my father ordered me to carry dozens of carts of gold and silver south.

He used the excuse that these dozens of carts of gold and silver were to help me defend the city, but in fact he asked me to bring them as gifts to my uncle.

Now these dozens of carts of gold and silver are in Guan Ping's army, does your uncle have any intention?"

When he heard that Mi Yang had brought dozens of carts of gold and silver this time, Shiren became greedy.

When he heard that there were dozens of carts of gold and silver available, Shiren's already low IQ instantly dropped to another level.

He immediately said to Mi Yang, "Such a great kindness."

After agreeing to Mi Yang's plan, Shiren immediately ordered someone to get paper and pen. After getting the paper and pen, Mi Yang immediately wrote a letter.

But before sending the letter, Shiren, out of his last shred of reason, took Mi Yang's letter and took a look at it.

I saw Mi Yang writing in the letter: He has convinced Shiren that he and Guan Ping led the army here to assist Shiren in defending the city.

Then Mi Yang suggested in the letter that Guan Ping could personally escort hundreds of carts of gold and silver into the city to further lower Shiren's wariness.

After entering the city, wait for the opportunity.

After reading the content of the letter, Shiren was a little worried. He asked Mi Yang, "Guan Ping, will you really do what you said in the letter?"

Facing Shiren's doubts, Mi Yang confidently replied, "As long as it's my own words, he will believe it."

The reason why Mi Yang is so confident is not because he has foresight, but because after a period of getting along with each other, Mi Yang already knows Guan Ping well as a person.

Guan Ping completely inherited Ji Han's character.

The content of this letter was not only read by Shiren, but also by Zhao Sui, Shiren's adviser who came in later.

After reading the content of the letter, Zhao Sui invited Shiren aside and then gave him advice:

"General, be careful of fraud.

If Guan Ping is really ignorant, there is no harm in believing the content of this letter.

But what if Guan Ping takes advantage of the general to open the city gate and lures the army towards me?"

"By then, public security will be in danger."

Compared with Shiren, Zhao Sui was still somewhat wise.

Zhao Sui's advice aroused Shiren's suspicion.

When Mi Yang saw Zhao Sui's move, he knew that he was warning Shiren.

But he was afraid that no one would warn Shiren.

Things have reached this point, and Mi Yang has no way out.

He spoke loudly to Shiren,

"Uncle, if you don't believe me, you can go to the city gate and observe in person."

"If Guan Ping leads a large army from the camp to attack while my uncle is opening the city gate, my uncle will kill me."

"My uncle can also close the city gate in time when he is at the city gate. In this way, my uncle will have nothing to worry about."

As soon as Mi Yang said this, Shiren's eyes lit up. This was indeed a way to kill two birds with one stone.

When Zhao Sui heard Mi Yang's suggestion, he also said it was feasible.

After all his close friends and advisors agreed to do so, Shiren no longer hesitated.

He immediately ordered Zhao Sui to lead most of his confidants to take control of the military camp in the city.

Then he called another person and asked him to deliver Mi Yang's letter to Guan Ping outside the city.

Finally, he said to Mi Yang,

"My dear nephew, I have already followed your plan. You can follow me to the city gate."

Mi Yang had no intention of rejecting Shiren's request.
