In addition to Liu Yu's performance, Gongsun Zan also expressed Chen Xuande's previous contributions and suggested that he should be appointed as the magistrate of Pingyuan County. The imperial court considered the opinions of all parties and agreed to Gongsun Zan's proposal.
After mentioning the good news, Zhang Fei and others felt the connection. Liu Bei led everyone to move to the plain. With the original horses, money and food in the plain, Liu Bei carried out transformation, actively adopted Yu Yi's suggestions, and improved the local environment. Manage the economy and earn a better reputation. Liu Yu was granted the title of Taiwei because of his meritorious service in quelling the rebellion.
In April of the summer of the sixth year of Zhongping, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty fell seriously ill and summoned General He into the palace to explain his affairs. At this time, spies sent by Emperor Ling also found Yu Yi, who was drinking in Pingyuan County.
"Boy, it is said that the governor's right leg is disabled. Is it because of you that day?"
Zhang Fei smiled at the wine table.
"It wasn't me. You whipped him so hard that day. Wasn't it you who interrupted it?"
Yuyi passed the responsibility.
Zhang Fei thought about it and felt that he had indeed used a lot of force that day, but he could never remember that he broke the governor's leg. After a long time, he became anxious, threw the bowl to the ground, and shouted: "What a good boy, you actually fooled me." Your brother was obviously shot by a flying knife, how could I be the one whipping him? See if I don’t teach you a lesson!”
Yu Yi knew that this matter could not be hidden, so he got up and ran away. However, there was a huge gap in strength between the two, so Yu Yi could not escape.
"Yide, why are you bullying your fourth brother again!"
Guan Yu happened to pass by, and Yu Yi hid behind him. He naturally wanted to help the weaker party.
"If you have the ability, just hide behind Brother Guan and don't come out."
Zhang Fei picked up a whip and threatened.
Yu Yi hid behind Guan Yu and made faces, just angry with the third brother.
Suddenly some men in black appeared nearby. One of them walked up to Yu Yi and said, "May I ask if it's Mr. Yu Yi?"
"What's the matter?"
Yuyi didn't know those people and seemed a little at a loss.
"What do you want to do?"
Zhang Fei walked in front of Yuyi, stopped him, and questioned the origin of the man in black.
"Yu Yi, an old friend invites you to come with us."
The man in black explained why.
But Zhang Fei wouldn't listen and said: "In broad daylight, why should my fourth brother go with you? Let's all stay."
He held a snake halberd in his hand, with a strong aura, eyes wide open, and a sound like thunder. Before the fight even started, the man in black was pushed back several times.
Although Yu Yi was protected behind him, he was still thinking about the origins of these men in black. Looking at the logos on their armbands, Yu Yi finally recalled them. That was the time when he was with the Ling Emperor Liu Hong in the imperial court. On that day, Liu Hong took Yu Yi to play in the naked amusement pavilion. At that time, he was having fun with a palace maid. Suddenly a man in black broke in. Yu Yi thought it was The assassin did not expect that Liu Hong made no move. He just pushed the palace maid away and walked to the man in black. He said something, and Liu Hong left in a hurry, and Yu Yi also left.
This incident has always made Yu Yi feel strange. Today they appeared again to look for him, indicating that these people are Liu Hong's spies.
"Third brother, stop for now and let me defend myself."
Yu Yi stepped forward and stopped Zhang Fei.
"Are you here to arrest me? Why don't you just take action and take me back!"
Yuyi asked.
"To be honest, we were entrusted to search for you everywhere, but there was no news. It was not until Liu Yu came forward to show his achievements and got your clues that he asked me to look for you. You are indeed here."
The man in black explained.
"This is my second brother Guan, and he is my third brother Zhang. Do you think you can take me away with you?"
Yuyi introduced the situation at the scene, reminded the man in black of the strength of his two brothers, and rejected his proposal.
"Yes, we can't take you away, but we still have to bring you the words. He is now terminally ill and will die soon. Before he leaves, he wants to see you one last time."
After the man in black finished speaking, he turned around and left without waiting for Yuyi's reply.
"What an inexplicable group of people. They insisted on wearing black clothes in broad daylight, and they insisted on taking away my fourth brother for no reason."
Zhang Fei sighed.
It is said that people are about to die, and their words are also good. Although Yu Yi has a very bad impression of Liu Hong. This man is lustful and stupid, and he is a foolish king. However, when it comes to treating himself, he basically takes him wherever there is fun. Playing is still very good, so I feel some compassion.
So Yuyi stepped forward and stopped the man in black who was about to leave, and said, "I'll go with you, but before I leave, I want to say goodbye to my eldest brother."
He quickly went to the hall of Pingyuan County. Liu Bei was resting in the hall. He looked very happy after seeing Yu Yi.
"Brother, I may be going to Luoyang and want to say goodbye to you."
Yuyi opened the door to San and made a request.
After hearing this, Liu Bei's eyes were full of surprise. After a long time, he stood up and said: "Pay attention to safety, go and come back quickly!"
Yuyi cupped his hands and went out.
He told Liu Bei about Yu Yi's experience in the court, so when he went to Luoyang this time, Liu Bei also guessed that it was related to the previous incident. What was it specifically? Since he didn't want to say it, he didn't force it.
After simply packing up his things, Yu Yi followed the man in black to Luoyang at high speed. After a few days, he finally arrived. His first stop was not to see the Ling Emperor, but to find his former friend He Jin.
He Jin was originally a butcher and a rough man, but he got some credit for his conferment. Later, his sister was elected as a nobleman, gave birth to the prince Liu Bian, and was made empress by the Ling Emperor, so he was highly valued. , and later he was successful in defeating thieves. He was in a high position and had great power. On that day, Emperor Ling's black-clad guards found out the truth about Yu Yi's escape. They originally wanted to question He Jin, but they didn't expect Queen He to plead for mercy, so they gave up.
Queen He had a shortcoming, that is, she was very jealous, because for a while Emperor Ling was partial to Wang Meiren, and she actually planned to poison her with poisonous wine, and her son Liu Xie was also fostered with Empress Dowager Dong. Empress Dowager Dong was the mother of Emperor Ling. Because Emperor Heng had no heirs, she chose Emperor Ling to succeed him.
After Emperor Ling came to power, he brought his adoptive mother Yu into the palace and honored her as the Queen Mother. Empress Dowager Dong persuaded Emperor Ling to make Liu Xie his crown prince. Emperor Ling also liked Liu Xie better and wanted to make him crown prince, but he suddenly fell seriously ill. Just let it go.
Now that he is terminally ill and will soon die, this issue has been placed in a particularly important position. Because he is a close servant, Jian Shuo has unique conditions. He is afraid of He Jin's power and wants to plan for his future, so he makes a suggestion : "If you want to pass the throne to Liu Xie, He Jin must be killed first, otherwise He Jin will definitely use his power to control the young emperor."
Liu Hong had already lost the ability to think at this time, and immediately agreed to declare He to enter the palace, but only in the name of Tuogu.
