Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Chapter 206: Liu Zhang's Choice

Fazheng sees the envoy! Under the leadership of his servant, Fazheng finally met Liu Zhang.

Fazheng? Liu Zhang looked at Fazheng, naturally very surprised.

At the beginning, Fazheng entered Shu with an edict, and as a liaison between the imperial court and Yizhou, he stayed in Chengdu for a long time, until Lu Bu sent troops to attack Shu, and Fazheng disappeared suddenly. Liu Zhang naturally recognized him.

Just how did the Fa appear here at this time?

Liu Zhang's complexion was a little ugly, and the way he looked at the servant also changed. Although he is kind, he will not be bullied to the point where he will remain silent. Today is Fazheng, so will an assassin directly come to follow him tomorrow? Say hello to yourself? It's very possible.

How courageous, you dare to appear in front of me at this time! Liu Zhang lowered his head, looked at Fazheng, and snorted coldly, Xiaozhi is really not afraid of death!

I came here just to save the envoy, why did the envoy harm me? Fazheng laughed.

Save me? Liu Zhang frowned and said, I'm not sick, and Xiao Zhi is not a good doctor, how can you save me?

How does Shijun know that he is not sick? Fazheng asked with a smile.

Liu Zhang said a little impatiently: If I am sick, I have my own doctor. When Xiao Zhi became a doctor, I think you were also sent by Lu Bu. I don't make things difficult for you, so I retreat quickly, so as not to cause death!

If you have a disease in your body, a doctor can cure it yourself, but if you have a heart disease, I don't know if a doctor can cure it? Fazheng asked with a smile.

What is heart disease? Liu Zhang frowned.

The imperial army is approaching the city. Although the soldiers in the city are trying their best to defend the city, their morale is not high. It is only a matter of time before the city is broken. When the city is broken, what should the king do? Fazheng looked at Liu Zhang's two words deeply. Dark circles under the eyes: I'm afraid you haven't slept peacefully in the past few days, have you?

Hmph~ Liu Zhang looked at Fazheng. Although his heart was punctured, he did not want to give in. He just snorted coldly and said, Lü Bu will definitely win? Do you know how many defenders there are in Chengdu?

If you keep it for a long time, you will lose it. Fazheng shook his head and sighed: Your Majesty probably knows what's going on in your heart, and nothing more than asking for help from outside, so I make you listen...

Fazheng pointed to the door, and there was an earth-shattering roar that could be heard even here. He looked at Liu Zhang and said, The princes of all parties don't say whether they are willing to send troops, but even if they are willing, the nearest Jingzhou is here. It will take three months to march, so what if Chengdu can hold on for three months? Let you know that when my lord and Yuan Shu fought in Nanyang, Liu Biao tried to meddle in vain. Offensive pass!

In this case, Lu Bu will definitely retreat! Liu Zhang looked at Fazheng, this is not good, Lu Bu must retreat at that time.

Okay? Fazheng looked at Liu Zhang and said with a smile, In this battle against Shu, our lord has repeatedly broken the dangerous positions occupied by the Shu army. At that time, my lord will only need to send a few soldiers to defend Mianzhu Pass and return to the army, waiting to be attacked. After retreating the invading enemy, you can kill them again. Moreover, the princes of the Central Plains are not a family. What happened to the alliance of various countries in the past against the Qin State, you should also know. How can you be sure that the princes of the various families can be united now? So what if we keep it? Our army can attack Shu at any time, and the people in Shu have been suffering from the flames of war year after year, how can you bear it?

Liu Zhang was silent, he had some headaches, and his unstable heart was even more hesitant at this moment.

Can't you ask Marquis Wen to retreat, and you and my two families live in harmony? Liu Zhang asked a little irritably.

Do you think it is possible? Fazheng stepped forward, looked directly at Liu Zhang and said, It is said that there are no two suns in the sky, and there are no two masters in the country. When did you see the alliance between the emperor and his ministers?

this……

Indeed never seen.

Liu Zhang smiled wryly and shook his head.

Besides, the envoy is a clan member of the Han Dynasty, and should have protected the Han Dynasty, but now he divides the territory and separates one side, causing his own country to be divided, how can he bear it? Fazheng asked again.

But Lu Bu committed disrespect...

Your envoy has seen with your own eyes that my lord disrespects the Son of Heaven? Otherwise, how would you know? Fazheng asked.

It's... just what I heard. Liu Zhang shook his head, wondering where he was going to meet.

Since my lord presided over the government, I have been diligent and self-denying, and I have never exercised power. I have been more respectful to your majesty. How can I be disrespectful? Fazheng raised his head, looked at Liu Zhang and said, Under my lord's rule, Wufu people Feng, using a small corner of Guanzhong to attract all nations to the court, to shock the world, to open trade routes, and to eliminate border troubles, what kind of merit is this?

Liu Zhang nodded mechanically, he was completely led away by Fazheng at this moment, he didn't know what to say other than nodding.

On the contrary, those who slandered my lord, have you ever thought about the achievements of these people? Fazheng asked suddenly.

Who are the people who reject Lu Bu? Scholars.

What is the use of scholars?

The family is rich, well-mannered, knowledgeable, and famous, but if you want to talk about merits... Liu Zhang thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of anything similar, let alone comparable to Lu Bu's achievements.

The people in central Shu can only say that they can live. If they want to say how good it is, that is nonsense.

Gu also thought about surrendering before, but everyone refused, and it's not easy for Gu to be the master. Liu Zhang smiled wryly.

According to the theory, envoys will save the land of Shu from wars, and the people will be less miserable. Have you ever thought about why these people reject envoys? Fazheng asked with a smile.

Liu Zhang shook his head, how could he know what others thought?

Let me test it out, let me see if this makes sense? Fazheng looked at Liu Zhang and smiled, convincing Liu Zhang to take another step closer.

Liu Zhang nodded silently.

Fazheng said: My lord's entry into Shu is beneficial to the people in the middle of Shu, but not to the aristocratic families in the middle of Shu. It is common sense for the court to collect taxes and everyone to pay taxes. But when my lord entered Shu, I asked them to take out the money and food that should have been given to the imperial court. The nobles usually have a lot of fertile land in their hands. If they pay taxes according to the rules, the taxes will be quite a lot, so you should feel similarly.

Liu Zhang nodded subconsciously. Indeed, the land of Shu is actually quite rich, but it feels like there are not many taxes. He couldn't figure out why before, but now he figured it out. They were all eaten by these people, and they paid one by one. It's really hateful to reach out to your own treasury!

This is the reason why they reject our lord, but there is another reason. If you hear this, don't be afraid. Fazheng looked at Liu Zhang and said with a smile.

Oh? Liu Zhang didn't understand: Why should I be afraid?

Actually, in the city of Chengdu, it is natural for the envoy to belong to him, but if the envoy resists stubbornly, my lord will not kill the envoy after the city is finally broken. However, it is impossible to assume such a normal position as before. Fazheng laughed.

Liu Zhang nodded again. Active submission and passive surrender are two different things, and the treatment cannot be the same.

However, with the hatred of the nobles against our Lord, if the Lord died in the chaos when the city was destroyed, it would still have some influence on my Lord. In addition, once they spread it, it would become my Lord who deliberately killed the Lord, then... ...It's really hard to argue. Fazheng sighed.

You threatened me!? Liu Zhang said angrily.

Fazheng: ...

After waiting for a long time, Fazheng came to his senses. He looked at Liu Zhang with some amusement and said, Don't you understand yet? You are surrounded by nobles in all directions. Is it easier for my lord to kill you, or for these people to kill you? You need to blame my lord for the death of the envoy, who will know what happened then?

Do you have to make it so clear?

Liu Zhang turned pale when he heard this. According to Fazheng's analysis, this kind of thing is really possible. What should we do?

Seeing Liu Zhang's expression, Fazheng heaved a sigh of relief. Now it was only the last step. After Liu Zhang digested it for a while, Fazheng continued: Your envoy, even if you keep Chengdu, it will not do any good for you. Didn’t you realize that Shijun’s state shepherd’s position is more like a puppet held up by the Yizhou family? On the contrary, the people in central Sichuan have been suffering from wars for years, when will we give up?”

Fazheng looked at Liu Zhang, and said earnestly: But if you make the king belong to the court and go to Chang'an, it will not only be too common, but more importantly, there will be my lord to protect you from now on. Of course, if you make the king, you must be with me. As soon as the lord is high, please let the king's people bind you and hand them over to those scholars.

My lord, Mr. Xiaozhi is right. If Mr. Xiaozhi is handed over, all these people will be buried with me! The servant at the side was startled, and hurriedly bowed to Liu Zhang.

If those people knew that they let people in to see Liu Zhang privately, even with Liu Zhang protecting him, he would not be able to survive.

Alas~ Liu Zhang sighed, signaled Fazheng to get up and said, Xiaozhi is an envoy of the imperial court, don't say that there is no mistake, even if there is a mistake, there is no reason to kill you, it's just...

Speaking of this, Liu Zhang smiled wryly and shook his head: As Xiaozhi said, it seems that Gu can't surrender even if he wants to!

I didn't think much about it before, but when Fazheng said this, when Liu Zhang was thinking about what to do, he suddenly realized that apart from the hundreds of private soldiers in the state pastoral mansion, there seemed to be not many soldiers in the city that he could mobilize. .

I have been emptied by others!

Wanting to understand this, Liu Zhang suddenly felt that he was really aggrieved as a state shepherd.

As long as the envoy is still the Yizhou Mu, there is no reason to be completely seized power. Fazheng smiled and said: If the envoy is willing to submit, he can help the envoy!

Oh? Liu Zhang looked at Fazheng and asked with a smile, I don't know what trick Xiaozhi has?

I can't talk about a good plan, but I ask you to recruit a few people first. I have some troops in the city. You can recruit them to protect the mansion of the envoy first. With the help of these people, you can gradually regain the power, at least the military power! Fazheng smiled.

As long as the military power is in hand, there is no need for too much, even if it is only 10%, it is enough to wait for the opportunity to open the city gate and let Lu Bu's army enter the city.

Liu Zhang looked at Fazheng with complicated eyes. He was very curious about how the other party hid so many soldiers under his nose. He really wasn't the material to be a prince, so it was too common for him to go to Chang'an honestly and be his own. , even if something happens, Lu Bu will stand up to it and will not threaten him.

Just follow Xiaozhi's plan!
