The wine shop closest to the south gate was overcrowded with many customers.
There are also different levels in wine shops. Most of the people in the hall are traders and lackeys who travel from different places, and most of the people in the private rooms are dignitaries. People come and go in the wine shop, and people who come and go are engaged in various professions, so it is easy to get information.
In the middle of the wine shop, a Confucian scholar with his head wrapped in a scarf and a long sword hanging from his waist stopped and stood, with a faint smile on his face, and said loudly: "As you know, Wang Can, the prefect of Hanzhong, led his troops to defeat Liu Yansan.
Among them, Pang Xi, Yang Huai and Gao Pei were killed. Yan Yan surrendered. Wu Yi, Fei Guan, Dong He and a kind of general were all captured alive. This time, Liu Yan sent three armies, and they were all beaten to pieces.
, defeated into an army, I am afraid Liu Yan would be frightened awake even if he fell asleep."
After finishing speaking, the Confucian scholar laughed loudly, sat down, picked up the wine bottle and drank it all in one gulp.
There was a sense of comfort and joy in the smile on his face.
"This brother is so brave. He dared to arrange Liu Yan in private. I admire him. However, Liu Yan deserved to be defeated by Wang Can. Such a violent and domineering person should have died long ago. I spent some time in Hanzhong
, I heard that Wang Can is benevolent, virtuous, courteous, and treats the people as his own children. He is a rare good official."
The person who spoke had a fat face, and when he laughed, the fat on his face trembled, and his bright eyes shone with a different kind of light.
As the man spoke, many people in the wine shop responded.
As the saying goes, those who have attained the right will be helped much, while those who are unjust will be helped less.
Liu Yan asked Zhao Wei to lead troops to massacre more than ten wealthy gentry families in Yizhou, and then sent Zhao Wei to destroy all Taoist temples in Chengdu for no reason, which caused widespread resentment among the people. Not only the wealthy gentry families in Yizhou hated Liu Yan, but also ordinary people
The people were also very dissatisfied with Liu Yan, thinking that Liu Yan was overbearing and did not have enough talent and virtue to serve as the pastor of Yizhou.
In the wine shop, there are many people talking. Once the chatter is opened, there will be a lot of discussion and it is difficult to stop.
When everyone was talking happily, the curtain of the wine shop was rolled up and a drinker walked in.
The drinker sat down, called someone to bring over a jug of wine, drank two gulps, and then said: "You guys have been discussing endlessly, but you don't even know that Wang Can has captured Jiameng Pass and killed the guard general Fei of Jiameng Pass.
Guang and Zhang Tong, Wang Can's troops are now extremely strong and he is leading his troops to attack Chengdu. Liu Yan is already on fire. This is the latest news and it is absolutely true."
In the wine shop, a green-skinned man glanced at the drinker and said: "Shit, this is not the latest news. I knew it a few days ago."
The drinker refused to give in and shouted: "Since you know it, why don't you tell it? You clearly don't understand and pretend to understand."
A look of disdain appeared on Qingpi's face, and he said: "What is the latest news? Apart from your little news, I have further news."
When the drinker heard this, he looked curious and said, "Come and listen."
Qingpi looked bright and said slowly: "Your news is already out of date. For example, the three-way army was defeated, and Jiameng Pass was broken. These are not enough." After saying this, Qingpi paused, mysteriously.
He said: "Everyone knows that General Yan Yan has been surrendered by Wang Can, and half a month ago, Wang Can had sent people to bring Yan Yan's family members from Chengdu to Hanzhong. What, this news is great enough!
"
"Shhhhh!"
After hearing this, everyone curled their lips and said, "What kind of latest news is this? It happened half a month ago, so is it still the latest news?"
However, there are also many people who are lost in thought.
The news Qingpi said was not new, but it exposed many problems.
Anyone who is smart can infer many things from this. Wang Can's base camp is in Hanzhong, but he was able to take Yan Yan's family members away from Chengdu without anyone noticing, which is enough to prove Wang Can's hidden strength. It can be seen from this that,
Wang Can's strength was so strong that everyone present had to re-examine Wang Can.
In the left corner of the wine shop, two men were drinking in silence.
The place where the two people were sitting was a private room, separated by a screen from outside.
One of them had a cheerful smile on his face when he heard the news from the man in the wine shop. His expression was filled with the pleasure of having a great revenge.
This person was none other than Li Yuan, a descendant of the Li family of the Yizhou clan who was destroyed by Liu Yan. The person sitting next to Li Yuan drinking was Cui He. Although Cui He did not have the same hatred as Li Yuan, he still felt that
I feel relieved because Liu Yan has long been opposed to the Yizhou clan and is not from the same camp.
"Brother Li, Wang Can is coming fiercely, and taking over Yizhou is just around the corner."
Cui He waved his sleeves, picked up a bottle of wine, raised his head and drank it all.
At this time, it is time for them to be happy.
Li Yuan nodded and said: "Brother Cui is right, Liu Yan is buried with dead bones in his tomb, and his defeat is imminent. Unfortunately, we have not completed the task of holding Liu Yan back. We still have not made any achievements and have not posed any threat to Liu Yan.
.And Ren Qi is also extremely incompetent. He has served as the governor of Jianwei for such a long time and has monopolized the power of Jianwei, but he has not made any big noise."
Cui He was convinced and said: "Brother Li is right. The matter is of great importance. Let's go to Mr. Jia to discuss it."
"Okay, go to Jia Gong's house!"
Li Yuan stood up and walked out of the wine shop. Cui He also stood up and left the wine shop together with Li Yuan. Their entourage paid for the drinks and left quickly.
After Jia Mansion, Li Yuan and Cui He announced their names, they walked directly to the hall.
In the hall, Jia Long walked out, cupped his hands and said, "Master Li and Master Cui, you two are here together. What's the important matter?"
Cui He glanced at Li Yuan, and then said: "Jia Gong, we have received the exact news that Fei Guang, the guard of Jiameng Pass, was killed by Wang Can. Wang Can has led his troops south and headed straight for Chengdu. It is even more surprising.
Unfortunately, after Yan Yan surrendered, his family members were also brought to Nanzheng by Wang Can. Brother Li and I felt that the matter was urgent, so we immediately came to discuss it with Mr. Jia."
"Hiss!"
Jia Long took a breath and asked, "Is it true that Yan Yan's family members were taken to Nanzheng?"
Yan Yan surrendered to Wang Can, Fei Guang was killed, and Wu Yi was captured. Jia Long also knew these news. However, Jia Long didn't know that Yan Yan's family members were also taken away by Wang Can's people. This was what made Jia Long
Something that surprised me.
Li Yuan said: "Jia Gong, we also learned about it from the wine shop. There is no evidence."
Jia Long rolled his eyes and said: "Forget it, no matter whether it is true or not, as long as it can hit Liu Yan."
Li Yuan and Cui He looked at each other, and at the same time cupped their hands and said: "Jia Gong will leave early and come back early. We are waiting for good news about Jia Gong." Their families are related to Jia Long's family, and they all know that Jia Long once
He went to visit Liu Yan and was so stimulated that Liu Yan vomited blood and fainted. Now Jia Long is planning to stimulate Liu Yan again. Doesn't this sound the death knell for Liu Yan?
Jia Long bowed his hands towards the two of them and walked towards the backyard.
He put on his official uniform, left the house, boarded the carriage and headed to the Prefectural Shepherd's House.
Even though Jia Long has been marginalized by Liu Yan, he still has the right to visit Liu Yan. After all, he still has the title of working in Yizhou. When Jia Gong came to visit, soldiers immediately reported to Liu Yan and sent Jia Long to Liu Yan.
He was brought to the hall to wait for news. Not long after, a soldier came to deliver an order for Jia Long to go to Liu Yan's study.
Jia Long walked through the corridor and walked for a while before arriving at Liu Yan's study.
"Boom! Boom!"
Jia Long stood outside the study, tidying up his official clothes that looked wrinkled due to the rush, reached out and knocked gently on the door of the study, and said: "My lord, Jia Long has come to pay homage."
"Come in!"
Liu Yan's voice was hoarse and he lacked confidence.
Jia Long reached out and pushed open the door and entered.
Looking around, I saw that Liu Yan's eyes were cloudy, but the occasional flash of light made people palpitate. There were two big bags under his eyes, like a pair of panda eyes, and his wrinkled old face looked slightly pale and thin.
His lips were so dry that they were chapped, and his whole body was very depressed. It made people feel that Liu Yan was about to die.
"Jia Long pays homage to the lord!"
Jia Long strode to the study, folded his hands, and bowed respectfully to Liu Yan.
At this time, Jia Long couldn't stop sneering in his heart.
It was undoubtedly the right time for him to choose this time to stimulate Liu Yan. Now Liu Yan is already very old. As an old man standing in the wind, as long as someone pushes him, he will probably fall to the ground immediately and become ill.
Sorry. He was very excited, but there was no expression on his face.
"sit down!"
Liu Yan nodded slightly and motioned for Jia Long to sit down.
After a pause, Liu Yancai asked: "Jia Zhizhang, why are you here to see me?"
Jia Long looked solemn and said: "Lord, something big happened in Yizhou, and Long had to come to report it."
A look of impatience flashed across Liu Yanlao's face, and he said coldly: "You came here this time because of those unscrupulous people, and you want to persuade me to resume practicing Taoism. If this is the case, needless to say, I will not agree.
"As long as you live alone for a day, there won't be a Taoist temple in Chengdu. If you have nothing else to do, go back."
Jia Long said: "My lord, the reason why Long came to pay homage to my lord is not for Taoist affairs, but for state affairs."
Liu Yan's expression improved slightly and he said, "Let's talk and listen!"
Jia Long cupped his hands and said, "My lord, does he know about the war on the front line?"
After hearing this, Liu Yan looked a little sad, but he still said: "Gu Zizi knew about the battle on the front line. Pang Xi, Yang Huai and Gao Pei were killed by Wang Can, and Lingbao led the army to confront Deng Zheng. In addition, Yan Yan also led the army.
Guard Baocheng and hold Wang Can back so that he cannot leave. This is the current war, why don't you know?"
After hearing this, Jia Long's mind was spinning. The news about Wang Can's defeat of Liu Yan's army had spread throughout Chengdu in the past few days, but Liu Yan didn't know about it. It was obviously someone who wanted to conceal it. This person must be Zhao Wei without a doubt.
However, this is better and can achieve more significant results.
Jia Gong cupped his hands and said: "My lord, you don't know about something big happening in Yizhou. Don't you know that Yizhou is in a precarious situation and may be destroyed at any time?"
"Asshole!"
Liu Yan shouted loudly and said angrily: "How can Yizhou be overthrown if I rule it alone? What should I fear if Wang Can is just a kid?"
Jia Long said: "My lord, don't you know that Yan Yan has surrendered to Wang Can, Wu Yi, Fei Guan and Dong He..." Just halfway through speaking, Zhao Wei's urgent voice sounded outside the house: "My lord, Zhao Wei wants to see you.
."
"Come in!"
Liu Yan's face was gloomy, his face turned blue, and his breathing seemed a little rapid.
He stretched out his withered hands and grasped the desk tightly, with veins popping out on the back of his hands covered only by a layer of skin. At this time, Liu Yan was very angry, both disappointed with Yan Yan and with Zhao Wei.
The anger that hides the truth.
His voice was low, waiting for Zhao Wei to come in and explain.
