As the current prefecture and patriarchal residence, Mianzhu is undoubtedly the largest city in Yizhou.

The reason why Liu Yan chose to set his capital in Mianzhu was because of the original governor's capital that Luo was destroyed by the cholera of the Yellow Turban Army; the other was that he had just taken office as the governor of Yizhou and did not dare to go deep into the hinterland of Yizhou too deep.

So he chose the Dingzhu where he was located. The city of Mianzhu is strong and difficult to capture. Later, Liu Yan strengthened the city defense of Mianzhu, built a palace in Mianzhu City, and added chariots and horses to carry cars and horses.

For this reason, Liu Biao from Jingzhou also wrote a letter to the court to report to him.

However, since Mianzhu City was tall and thick, and there were soldiers from Dongzhou guarding it, Liu Yan later built Mianzhu City as a prefecture.

Unfortunately, this sudden fire directly destroyed all Liu Yan's deployment.

Looking at the palace and chariots and horses burned by the fire, Liu Yan stood outside the city, feeling inexplicably complicated.

He walked softly to the white-haired ruler. Pang Xi whispered in a low voice and comforted with a solemn expression: "Ming Gong, Mianzhu City is dilapidated, and this fire can be moved to the capital!"

Turning his head to look at him, Liu Yan sighed lightly, "It happened that Bo Chang returned from Guanzhong and suddenly broke out in Mianzhu. Is God warning me? Is Yizhou going to change its owner?"

His face suddenly changed, and Pang Xi was shocked, "How could Duke Ming do this? Even if Bo Chang returns to Yizhou, he still needs to be promoted by Ming to rule. How could the people of Yizhou leave Duke Ming?"

Smiling and shook his head, Liu Yan looked helpless, "I know my own body best. I ran around in my early years and left too many stubborn diseases. Now I am old, I am afraid it will take so long."

"Mr. Ming is careful of his words!"

After waving his hand to interrupt Pang Xi's words, Liu Yan said directly: "You don't need to comfort me. I used to be in Chang'an, and I couldn't feel at ease. Now that he has returned to Yizhou, I have no worries." Looking at the palace where Yu Yan was still emitting, Liu Yan felt a little regretful, "It's a pity that I may not have this life!"

After saying that, he just sighed melancholy and then looked at several people walking a few steps away.

"Ming Gong, the fire in the palace is an unknown sign. Please move the capital quickly!" A whispered scholar walked towards Liu Yan quickly and said at the same time.

"Nanhe, I'm just about to send someone back to you and ask why!" The person who came was named Zhang Yu, a native of Shu County. He was proficient in the changes in the celestial phenomena and predicting good and bad luck. As he said that, Liu Yan also turned his eyes to another scholar beside him, "Wenbian, why don't you see Zhongzhi? Haven't you notified him?"

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged scholar hurriedly bowed, "Report to Mu Bo, I have sent someone to find Zhongzhi. He is traveling to Guanghan, and I think he will come as soon as possible after getting the news!"

Nodding and understanding, Liu Yan looked at another person beside him, "What kind of inspiration did Yanying think the Mianzhu fire give me?"

Upon hearing this, the young man asked quickly bowed and responded respectfully: "I am not good at learning skills and dare not speak nonsense, but I think that moving to the capital should be the best strategy!"

"Did Master Ding mean the same thing?" Liu Yan nodded with a smile and asked at He Zong.

He Zong was from Pi County, Shu County, and studied under Ren An, a famous scholar in Mianzhu, and learned the art of map preaching and astronomical reasoning. His fellow disciples, including Du Qiong, Du Hui, etc. In Mianzhu, Ren An was very famous, so Liu Yan wanted to know his thoughts.

He bowed his hands and said a little embarrassedly: "The teacher is not in Mianzhu recently and is out to visit friends."

His eyes swept over Du Qiong and Du Hui again, and seeing that they had not expressed any other opinions, Liu Yan knew in his heart that they might all want to migrate to the capital.

However, Luocheng, the governor of Yizhou, was still in a state of destruction. If you want to relocate the capital, you can only have the county seat of Shu County, Chengdu.

After silently looking at Wang Shang, Liu Yan asked directly: "Wenbian, please arrange it. In a few days, the capital will be moved to Chengdu. All the officials in the prefecture will follow me to move westward!"

"Abide by the order!" Hearing this, Wang Shang nodded immediately to the promise.

Afterwards, seeing that Liu Yan stopped talking, everyone bowed and surrendered.

Turning back and looking at the palace where Yu Yan was still floating, Liu Yan was carrying his hands on his back, his face was complicated. Pang Xi beside him hesitated for a long time, and still spoke in a low voice: "Ming Gong, if he moved to Chengdu this time, the conflict between Dongzhou and Shu will be even more irreconcilable!"

After sighing for a long time, Liu Yan suddenly felt helpless. "I don't know that this is not the time to move to Chengdu. After this, I don't know when I can suppress the old tyrants of Bashu!"

His face was solemn, and Pang Xi didn't know how to comfort him. He only led Liu Fan and Liu Dan's family to secretly enter Yizhou. Although he didn't know much about the situation in Yizhou, he still knew a lot of inside information due to Liu Yan's trust.

Since Liu Yan entered Yizhou, he has spared no effort to suppress the local tyrants. Because Yizhou is blocked, the local tyrants have not been very obeyed the government's orders. In previous years, there have been many tyrants hiding behind their backs and instigating Yijun Banyan to rebel.

Therefore, if Liu Yan wants to maintain a long-term stability in Yizhou, he must defeat these wealthy families who have always lived in Yizhou. In fact, his Dongzhou soldiers are no longer comparable to those of the local wealthy families in Bashu.

As long as you wait a little longer and find a suitable opportunity, you will definitely be able to conquer the native tribes of Yizhou. In that way, his Liu Yan's lineage will really become the king of Shu.

"Ming Gong, in fact, Bo Chang came back from Guanzhong, and it would be a good thing to take this opportunity to move his capital to Chengdu?"

Suddenly turning his head and staring at Pang Xi, Liu Yan narrowed his eyes slightly. Looking at each other for a few breaths, Pang Xi was still serious and cautious: "Don't Ming Gong think that Bo Chang has changed a lot compared to the past? Maybe he has really grown up in Chang'an in the past years!"

With a thoughtful look, Liu Yan didn't say anything. After a long time, he suddenly smiled and waved his clothes, "Forget it, no matter what, this time I want to see what tricks they can do!"

The fire in Mianzhu led to the destruction of the Yizhou Patriarchate. Under the advice of the subordinate officials of Yizhou, the Yizhou Patriarch Liu Yan felt that he had moved his capital to Chengdu. As soon as the news came out, the entire Yizhou did not fluctuate. It should be noted that Liu Yan had always acted tough in Yizhou because he held the Dongzhou army.

Unexpectedly, this time he surrendered to a fire.

At the same time, on the important road to Shu in northeast Mianzhu, there is a dangerous pass called Jiameng Pass.

The county magistrate of this pass is not a person, but Zhu Gui from Nanzheng, who was born in Hanzhong. Zhu Gui was excavated by Zhang Lu and recommended to Liu Yan, who was enforced by Liu Yan and appointed as Jia Mengchang.

At this time, when the two news that Hanzhong was taken over by Liu Fan and the prefecture was about to move to Chengdu were spread to Jiameng Pass, Zhu Gui was completely confused.
