Death of Injury (1)

Since Liu Chen's injury will take one month to recover, the battle session of the martial arts test was postponed indefinitely by Liu Chan. The battle is meaningless. Judging from the current level of the royal family, it has not reached the point of the end. Liu Chan was afraid that there would be another casualty during the competition. If the royal family was not good-looking, it would seem that it was not good at it.

There were 23,000 soldiers in Chengdu, and 15,000 people were taken away by Dong Jue. The other person who rushed to Hanjia to quell the rebellion was Gong Heng. Gong Heng was the younger brother of Gong Lu, the former prefect of Yue Shi, who was proficient in military tactics and had rich combat experience, and was recommended by the ministers. According to the speculations of the ministers, this rebellion was related to the southerners. Gong Lu followed Zhuge Liang to pacify Nanzhong and unfortunately died in battle. His brother Gong Heng lived in Yue Shi for a long time and was very familiar with the southerners, so the ministers recommended him to go. Once there were any clues, Gong Heng could find out at the first time. So Liu Chan gave Gong Heng three thousand men to quell the rebellion. In this way, there were only 5,000 defenders in Chengdu.

The establishment of Hu Leique is imperative. Yang Xi believed that there were many powerful families in Shu, and that even though the killings established their authority, it also made people feel disappointed. It was not appropriate to establish such an organization to supervise all officials at this time. Liu Chan felt that Yang Xi was justified, so he changed to cultivating talents. A brand new organization from top to bottom not only requires training of officials, but also trains minor officials and soldiers who execute orders below.

In his spare time, Liu Chan personally trained Gao Wan, Du Zhen, Wei Ji, and Wen Li, instilling the thoughts of later generations and the responsibilities of Hu Leique, etc. The four of them were all the best. Liu Chan had a very long span to transmit knowledge. The four of them remembered it silently and slowly digested it. The next day I saw Liu Chan and raised the questions of the previous day one by one. The questions of the four were very reasonable and in line with the current Shu Han situation. This was exactly what Liu Chan lacked. After Liu Chan was with a few people for a long time, he had a deeper understanding of the people and things of this era.

The replenishment of the servants in the palace was nearly 30% less than that of Huang Hao's time. However, the efficiency of operation was much higher. Only then did Liu Chan see clearly the ability of Xi Zheng. This person usually remained silent, but in fact he could not hide anything from him. What's even more rare is that he was loyal to the emperor. Huang Hao could not win over, and Chen Fu and his son did not win over. There was no foundation, but he was repeatedly spared from danger, which made people admire him from the bottom of his heart.

Look at the oldest person in the palace, Xi Zheng is the oldest, and this time he has the most efforts and has strong abilities. So he was promoted to Xi Zheng as the Central Secretariat, responsible for handling all things in the palace. From the Secretary Ling of 600 stone to the Central Secretariat of 2,000 stone, Xi Zheng entered the core regime of Shu Han. The position of the Secretary Ling was taken over by the former secretary Lang Sima Shengzhi. Gao Wan and four others followed Xi Zheng to handle the palace affairs when they were in the palace. When they were outside the palace, they were sent to various departments by Liu Chan. After Chen Qi was arrested, Qiao Zhou returned to the court and used his influence to stabilize the government affairs with Fan Jian. Therefore, both of them were praised by Liu Chan.

The families of Guan Yi and Zhang Zun were already close, but in this generation, both families were poor, so they gradually became far away. Your Majesty gave the two brothers, and they only felt like each other's tempers. What he never forgets was Liu Chan, who asked Sima Shengzhi to organize a piece of information and study it. Some of these people's descendants were just a minor official in a certain place. To understand their level and virtue, they must send special people to inspect for a while.

The descendants of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, the Five Tiger Generals who were praised in later generations, have already seen it. Huang Zhong's descendants have long been eliminated. Zhao Yun's two sons Zhao Tong and Zhao Guang were appointed in other places respectively, and only Ma Chao's descendants still live in Chengdu.

Ma Cheng, Hou of Jiying Township, is Ma Chao's only son, and Ma Chao's previous family members were killed in Jicheng. Ma Cheng had a sister who married Liu Li, the king of Anping, and he was also a relative of the country. He had no impression of Ma Cheng and Liu Chan, so he came to him but was waiting for someone to ask.

But he was thinking about it and said, "It is rumored that the Marquis of Yuyingxiang has a farm in the southern suburbs of Chengdu. He raises horses there all year round. Many nobles and nobles buy horses in the Marquis of Yuyingxiangxiang."

Liu Chan was stunned when he heard this. Ma Chao and Ma Mengqi's son had not been an official for decades and had been raising horses. It was simply outrageous! When he saw that Liu Chan's face was wrong, he was calm and said: "It is rumored that the horse of the fifth prince was bought in the Marquis of Yuying Township."

Of course, Liu Chen didn't know why his father summoned him. When he arrived at Changle Palace, he realized that it was Ma Cheng's affairs in the village of Yuying. Liu Chen knew very little about Ma Cheng, but he just went to Ma Chengzhuang to buy horses occasionally. But he didn't say it, and Liu Chen didn't say it. Liu Chan was a little worried. Looking at the appearance of the two, he should know something. Since they didn't say it, there must be something unspeakable. After thinking about it, this matter was probably related to him, otherwise how could they not dare to say it. Thinking of this, Liu Chan smiled and said, "I forgive you for your sins, but it's okay to say it. If you hide something, don't blame me for not thinking about the old love!"

After hearing what Liu Chan said, the two of them were thinking in their hearts that Ma Cheng resigned was approved by His Majesty, why did he ask us now? Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger. If you don’t say this, it will definitely be a crime, and it may not be good if you say it. I glanced at Liu Chan, and his face seemed to be saying, "I'm not kidding, you can do it."

Liu Chen and Ma Cheng had a bit of friendship, but they were afraid that they would be too straightforward to make their father sue Ma Cheng, so they spoke first. The matter was actually very simple. Ma Chao fought for the world several times, and they ended in failure against Cao Cao. The men, women, young and old in the family were killed by the enemy because they had no time to rescue. Only his companion Ma Dai followed him, and the two brothers depended on each other. They settled down after surrendering to Liu Bei. Years of war, the family tragedy changed Ma Chao a lot. Ma Chao believed that he could only live in a foreign land in Shu. Therefore, he was wary, less contact with others, and was cautious in his life, fearing that he would encounter any unexpected happenings again.

At that time, Peng Yi, a resident of the Shuzhong, had offended Liu Zhang and was exiled to Sichuan as a prisoner. After meeting Liu Bei, Liu Bei could satisfy every job, so he was promoted to the resident of the Zhizhong. From a prisoner to a state-owned official, Peng Yi began to become arrogant. Many of the ministers were dissatisfied with Zhuge Liang and also made suggestions to Liu Bei. Liu Bei observed for a while and found that it was indeed as everyone said, so he found a mistake and demoted him to the prefect of Yangjiang.

Peng Yi was very worried and was very dissatisfied with seeing that he was being released from the outside. So he found Ma Chao, and the two talked about the release of Jiang Yang. Peng Yi said to Ma Chao: "You are for the outside, and I am for the inside, and the world is not enough." Ma Chao did not respond. After seeing Peng Yi off, he reported the matter to Liu Bei overnight. Peng Yi was convicted of this, but Ma Chao was even more lonely because he was missing a friend. Finally, he died of depression at the age of 47. At the time of death, he wrote a memorial saying: "My family has more than 200 people, all of whom were killed by Cao Cao; only his cousin Ma Dai can inherit the blood of the family. I entrust him to Your Majesty, and there is nothing else to say.

From Liu Bei's perspective, although Ma Chao defected to him, his main factor was more because of the opposition between Shu and Wei, rather than his loyalty to him. Rather than being a subordinate of Liu Bei, he was a desperate tiger living in Liu Bei's power. Therefore, although Ma Chao had a very high position, he never had any chance to lead and should not be used.

It was passed down to Ma Cheng's generation, which was more open than his father. He simply refused to be an official or a director, and was happy to be free and easy. Liu Chan had no intention of force to stay, so he was approved. So Ma Cheng only retained the title of his family and opened a horse farm near Chengdu. Liu Chen was tactful, but Liu Chan understood. After thinking about it, he decided to send someone to try it. If Ma Cheng had real materials, he would take it back to the court; if it was an ordinary person who waited for this matter, it would be fine.

That night, Empress Zhang saw His Majesty in her bedroom and sighed repeatedly, then hugged Liu Chan behind her.

"That's what your majesty is?"

Hearing his wife's faint voice, Liu Chan sighed without saying a word, and grabbed the slender jade hand that was hugging her waist and kept rubbing it. Empress Zhang snuggled on Liu Chan's back and said coquettishly: "Your Majesty, do you dislike me and miss others."

Liu Chan smiled and said, "I am thinking about others in my heart, how could I be here?"

"That might be possible. Your Majesty has a sad face. It must be my concubine who has offended Your Majesty." Empress Zhang walked into Liu Chan's arms in two steps and looked up at Liu Chan.

Liu Chan looked down at his beloved wife's beautiful eyes like autumn water, which made people immerse themselves in it. After staring for a while, Liu Chan said, "There is no news of the four counties to quell the rebellion, and I can't sleep or eat."

Although it was early summer, the city of Wuyang was bleak and the doors and windows of every household were closed and they did not dare to go out. On the streets, there were wild cats and dogs passing through the streets. A few days ago, the prefect's mansion was broken, and the prefect of Wuyang Fei Yan died tragically under the swords and axes of the barbarians. The barbarians here did not make things difficult for the people in the city, but the people saw that the barbarians who were usually gentle now had their eyebrows and eyes, and they felt scared from the bottom of their hearts.

The barbarians moved to Sichuan to live in various counties, but now there are 50,000 or 60,000 barbarians gathered in Wuyang City. Both men, women, young and old are wearing armor and put into the queue with weapons. There were 2000 Han soldiers killed in the prefect's mansion, but this was enough to make the Han people worried. It was not until Yan Yu mobilized more than 8,000 people in Jianwei County to station outside the city that the number of barbarians in the city did not increase. However, the Shu army outside did not attack, and the barbarians did not take the next move after occupying Wuyang.

Yan Yu was very depressed. Since he served as the governor of the surrender of the Sui, although the governance of the Nanzhong region could not keep up with Ma Zhong and Zhang Yi, he was still calm and steadily. At the beginning of the year, Shi Ji, the garrison of Jingzhou of Eastern Wu, sent a letter to Shu, asking the Shu army to increase the guard power of Baqiu and assist the Eastern Wu in defending Jingzhou. Yan Yu was ordered to take five thousand barbarians to go there, but he did not think that the barbarian was abnormal. After the agreement was over, he had just returned to Nanzhong, and received the order from His Majesty. The barbarians who moved to Sichuan did not form a large interest group - this was also the intention of the court, so Yan Yu planned to appease one by one, and then register and join the national households.
