Kong Ming narrowed his eyes, walked gently to Li Feng, and said, "Your father and I have a very good relationship. There is no need to worry. If you have anything to say, just say it!"
Li Feng said: "Your Majesty is actually not in the court. He went to Xiangyang. Before reporting this matter to the Prime Minister, I went to Xiangyang to find His Majesty. Unexpectedly, His Majesty seemed not to care at all. He just asked me to come north as soon as possible to tell the Prime Minister."
Kong Ming knew about Yu Yi's stay in Xiangyang, but he still pretended to be shocked and asked, "Did you read that correctly?"
Li Feng bowed and said with great certainty: "It's absolutely true."
Kong Ming nodded and said: "Since it is His Majesty's wish, don't bother. You go back quickly. I will edit a letter and give it to Meng Da right away."
In Xiangyang, Huang Shumin followed Yu Yi's wishes and just summoned the old people from Daoxiang Village. So in the hall, Yu Yi sat in the middle, Huang Shumin, Zhugeshan, Lei Chunze, Huang Mochou, and Xiaoli sat in turn. To the left and right, and further back are some old men with military exploits.
Yu Yi bowed to everyone and said: "It's been a long time since I've seen you all. This is my first visit to Xiangyang after I ascended the throne as the new emperor. Now the Southern Barbarians have surrendered under the Prime Minister's crusade, and the civil strife in the court has been put down. We, Western Shu, The development of the country is booming, and it is time for the decisive battle with Cao Wei. Cao Pi recently died of illness, and his son Cao Rui ascended the throne, and also dismissed Sima Yi from his position. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Northern Expedition. Following my order, the Prime Minister has already led troops to station in Qishan, and even After winning many battles, the morale of our army is strong, and everyone in Xiangyang City must have felt it and are already eager to attack the Central Plains."
Xiaoli thought that Yu Yi was going to personally lead the soldiers and civilians of Xiangyang City to launch a war in the Central Plains, and quickly agreed, saying: "We are willing to recover the Central Plains under your Majesty's leadership!"
After hearing this, other people also felt excited. You must know that many people came from Daoxiang Village. Ten years have passed. The goal at that time was to capture Yunnan and then plot the Central Plains. Now they have been isolated in a corner, and the Central Plains is rubbing their hands. But everyone cheered.
Yu Yi raised his hands and pressed them down, meaning to keep quiet. Soon the sound of the scene disappeared. He continued: "The purpose of my visit this time is to meet old friends and check the public sentiment. Tell Jingzhou Marquis Huang Shumin not to send troops to the Central Plains, but to stick to Xiangyang."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar. No one could understand it, especially Xiaoli. She stood up directly and said: "Now is a great time to attack the Central Plains, why should we stick to Xiangyang?"
Yu Yi said: "This is the result of the discussion between the Prime Minister and I. There is no reason."
Xiaoli looked very excited and asked: "Which one has the final say in Xishu is His Majesty or the Prime Minister?"
Seeing that Xiaoli had lost her composure, Huang Shumin quickly came out to persuade: "Since it was discussed by His Majesty and the Prime Minister, there is no problem!"
Lei Chunze also expressed his incomprehension and advised: "Your Majesty, please take a look at these old people in front of you. They all came from Daoxiang Village. In order to follow in your Majesty's footsteps, they fought all the way to Xiangyang. Now they have only a few years to live." We want to see His Majesty unify the Central Plains and realize his long-cherished wish in his lifetime, why doesn’t His Majesty just listen to our opinions?”
Looking at everyone's expressions, Yu Yi couldn't bear it, but he still managed to stay calm. He overturned the table in front of him and said angrily: "This is an order, without a reason?" After that, he walked out of the hall.
After leaving, he went to Guanyi to bring out the skeleton war horse, left Xiangyang City, ran all the way towards Maicheng, and soon arrived nearby.
He did not enter Maicheng, but went to a cemetery, got off the skeleton horse, walked a certain distance, came to two tombstones, paid homage, and said: "Old friend, long time no see!"
It turned out that the two tombstones belonged to Ye Huatong and Wu Chenggong. They were trapped in Maicheng with Guan Yu. In order to help Guan Yu break out, the two of them tried their best to resist the attack of the Wu army and helped Guan Yu leave Maicheng. Cheng created an opportunity, but it was a pity that Guan Yu was too conceited. After all, he still stumbled on the issue of choosing the road back to Xichuan. In the end, the enemy tripped the red rabbit horse with a trip horse rope. He and his son Guan Ping were also captured alive, and Ye Huatong and Wu Chenggong also died in the chaos. Later, when Liu Bei launched the Battle of Xiaoting, he allocated part of his troops to Yu Yi. He secretly crossed Jingshan Mountain and attacked Xiangyang City. He also used the opportunity to attack Fancheng to attack the east and west. To the east, Maicheng was recaptured. After asking around, the bodies of the two were finally found in a villager's home. They were rewarded heavily and simply buried. After he ascended the throne, they were ordered to have a rich burial again.
Yuyi slowly knelt down in front of the tombstone and asked, "Are you all okay?"
At this moment, a red shadow appeared, and a familiar face appeared. Behind the red shadow, there were two pale figures.
Yu Yi looked closely and found that the red shadow general was his late second brother Guan Yu. Yu Yi smiled and said: "Second brother, why are you here?"
He replied: "I am originally a mountain god near Jingshan Mountain. Why didn't you tell me that you came to my territory?"
Yu Yi smiled and said: "I have just arrived in Xiangyang City. How can I disturb the second brother's Qingxiu? Why didn't I see the eldest brother and the third brother?"
Guan Yu sighed and explained: "Before I died, many people in Jingzhou worshiped me, so after my death, I was named a mountain god. Your eldest brother and third brother are different. There was basically no one to worship me during their lifetime, so they lacked strength and could not Be visible at any time like me."
Yuyi sighed, looking very disappointed.
Guan Yu said: "Don't be disappointed, look who is behind me?" After speaking, he pulled out the man and woman behind him.
Yuyi noticed the man and woman, one was Wu Chenggong and the other was Ye Huatong. He stepped forward excitedly, ready to shake hands, but unfortunately the other person was illusory. Only then did he realize that they had no entity, so he had to ask with concern: "Are you all okay?"
The two of them replied in unison: "We are all okay with General Kuishan Shenguan's care."
Yu Yi turned his head and looked at Guan Yu, his eyes full of gratitude. Guan Yu smiled and said: "I feel very guilty when I say it. If they hadn't helped me break out, I might not have been able to get out of Maicheng at that time."
It turned out that after the two people died in the chaos, their souls did not disperse immediately, but wandered around Jingzhou. Later, when Guan Yu became a mountain god, he was taken in by him and relied on some offerings to survive. Only then did they have the opportunity to meet again.
Yu Yi has always felt guilty towards the two of them. You must know that at that time, Yu Yi was also one of the people responsible for guarding Jingzhou. Later, because Sima Yi attacked Huangpu Village, he had no choice but to leave. Wu Chenggong and Ye Huatong represented themselves The one who was guarding Jingzhou sacrificed his life, so he was responsible.
