Three Kingdoms: copy Lu Bu's force at the beginning

This matter is unreasonable.

However, Liu Yan also knew in his heart that this was also a rare opportunity, perhaps the only one.

What's more, if you don't agree to this condition, anger Hua Yu, and inform Dong Zhuo, Liu Zhang will undoubtedly die.

One Liu Zhang died, and there was another Liu Fan and Liu Dan. Liu Yan could only be a dumb man eating Coptis chinensis, and he couldn't tell if he was suffering.

Liu Yan sighed slightly, lit the letter on a candle, and threw it into the brazier.

This letter must not be kept, otherwise, once it gets out, he, Yizhou Mu, will lose all face.

Those opposing voices in Yizhou will suddenly be amplified several times, and Liu Yan's years of hard work may be in vain.

Immediately, Liu Yan called his confidant and asked him to check the specific situation of Gan Ning.

In less than two days, his confidant reported to Liu Yan in great detail.

"Born as a ranger, he once gathered hundreds of people to plunder, and that's how he gained the reputation of the Jinfan thief."

"If officials respect him, Gan Ning will have a heart-to-heart friendship with this person, and he will be able to go through fire and water."

"If officials neglect him, Gan Ning will condone his subordinates to plunder, and even kill people."

"Later, Gan Ning delved into the theories of various schools of thought, and entered his official career, starting from the planner, until he is the county magistrate of Shu County today."

In fact, when Gan Ning entered the official career, he would naturally conceal the murder and arson in the past.

But Liu Yan personally asked about Gan Ning's information, and the person who handled it was Liu Yan's confidant, so he did his best to get all of Gan Ning's information out.

Liu Yan squinted his eyes and thought to himself, Gan Ning had killed people and set fire to him, he belonged to the bandits, so there must be many lives in his hands.

Perhaps, the person Gan Ning killed may not necessarily have Hua Yu's relatives.

Well, since Gan Ning was a thief in the past and had a lot of lives in his hands, this matter will be easy to handle.

As long as the evidence of Gan Ning's murder is found, he can be arrested, and no one dares to say anything.

Gan Ning's matter is easy to solve, but Wu Cheng's matter has caused Liu Yan a headache for two days.

Wu Yi's elder brother, Wu Yi, was from Chenliu, Yanzhou.

Wu Yi's uncle, named Wu Kuang, was a general under General He Jin.

Wu Kuang and Liu Yan's friendship is mediocre, but Wu Yi's father, Wu Jin, has an inseparable friendship with Liu Yan.

Because of this, Liu Yan went south to Yizhou, and Wu Jin and his family followed him.

However, not long after arriving in Yizhou, Wu Jin died of illness and entrusted Wu Yi to Liu Yan.

In Yizhou, where there are many aristocratic families, the brave Wu Yi is naturally Liu Yan's direct descendant.

With a rare direct descendant, how could Liu Yan trade Wu Yi's younger sister for Liu Zhang?
However, it is not ordinary people who can become a state shepherd in this era and have a stable position.

This is true of Liu Yan of Yizhou and Liu Biao of Jingzhou.

Of course, the same is true for Liu Yao of Yangzhou and Liu Yu of Youzhou.

It's just that Liu Yao met Yuan Shu, and Liu Yu met Gongsun Zan.

As for Liu Yan, he was the representative figure of various state pastors in this period, and he was the smartest person.

So, after a few days of consideration, Liu Yan really came up with a perfect plan.

Although, this method cannot be elegant.

But even if it was replaced by Hua Yu, the method he came up with would not be able to enter the elegant hall.

After Liu Yan made up his mind, he immediately sent someone to call Wu Yi to the mansion.

After the two parties were seated, Liu Yan held the tea bowl, scraped the tea noodles, glanced at Wu Yi, and asked with a smile, "Ziyuan, since you came to Sichuan, have you gotten used to life?"

Wu Yi was taken aback, thinking to himself, it has been several years since he came to Shuchuan, why did Zhou Mu make such sudden remarks?

"The little nephew came with his uncle, and he is taking care of him in every way, so he is very comfortable with it." Wu Yi was a little cautious, and looked at Liu Yan's face slightly, "I don't know why uncle said that?"

Seeing Wu Yi's expression, Liu Yan was very satisfied.

As the shepherd of a state, his subordinates should treat him this way, just like a courtier treats the emperor.

Liu Yan smiled and said, "Ziyuan, as far as I know, Cheng'er is not yet married, but is that so?"

Wu Yi was overjoyed immediately. What Liu Yan meant was that he was going to propose marriage to the Wu family.

Of Liu Yan's four sons, three were held as hostages in Chang'an, and only the third son, Liu Mao, was by his side.

Therefore, Liu Yan's proposal of marriage in person can only be for the third son Liu Mao.

In this way, Wu Cheng is Liu Yan's daughter-in-law.

The point is, after a hundred years of Liu Yan, Liu Mao must inherit the state shepherd's position, so his sister Wu Yi is the state shepherd's wife.

In troubled times, Zhou Mu is a kingdom, Liu Mao is the emperor of the earth, and Wu Yi's sister is the queen of the earth.

Wu Yi immediately replied: "What uncle said is right, Cheng'er has just turned 16 years old and has not yet married."

"That's very good." Liu Yan nodded, stroking his beard, and asked, "I am interested, you and my two families will form a good relationship between Qin and Jin. I don't know what Ziyuan wants?"

The words explained, Wu Yi was overjoyed, and immediately cupped his hands and said, "Uncle and late father are close friends."

"When my late father was dying, he told my nephew to treat my uncle as a father."

"Therefore, Cheng'er's marriage is decided by my uncle, so there is no reason why my nephew should not."

"Okay." Liu Yan nodded, "Since that's the case, the marriage between Zhang'er and Cheng'er is settled like this."

Zhanger?

Liu Zhang?

Wu Yi was stunned, shouldn't it be Liu Mao?
Liu Zhang is still in Chang'an as a hostage, how can he marry Cheng'er?
Is it...

Wu Yi's heart moved, and he asked, "May I ask uncle, could it be that Ji Yu has already left Chang'an and will return to Yizhou soon?"

Liu Yan said with a smile: "The old man's marriage between Zhang'er and Cheng'er is to prepare for Zhang'er's departure from Chang'an."

Wu Yi suddenly realized: "What does uncle mean, that Ji Yu is going to make a request to Dong Zhuo to go south to Sichuan to get married on the pretext of a grand marriage?"

Liu Yan smiled and nodded, "Exactly."

"But..." Wu Yi still felt that something was wrong, "Uncle, once Dong Zhuo orders Ji Yu to return to Chang'an after the wedding, why does Cheng'er want to go with Ji Yu to the Longtan Tiger's Den?"

"Haha, this matter is easy, the old man has already made up his mind." Liu Yan smiled, "After the two of them get married, if Bandit Dong doesn't mention this matter, Zhang'er naturally doesn't need to go back to Chang'an."

"If Thief Dong insists on forcing Zhang'er to return to Chang'an, the old man will complain about his illness to the outside world, and leave Zhang'er as a filial piety at his knees."

"The great man governs the country with filial piety. The old man has this request, and Fan'er and Dan'er are in Chang'an as pledges. Dong Thief will not force him."

Wu Yi was overjoyed: "Uncle is brilliant, so Ji Yu can stay in Shuchuan forever."

"Little nephew dares to ask again, if uncle a hundred years later, this Yizhou shepherd..."

This is what Wu Yi cares about the most.

His younger sister is beautiful and wealthy, so she must be betrothed to the heir of Yizhou Mu, instead of being a noble lady.

Liu Yan smiled faintly: "Among the four sons of this old man, in terms of talent, Fan Er is the leader."

"Fan'er is the eldest son again, so he should be the most suitable candidate to take over as the governor of the state."

"But Thief Dong will definitely not let Fan'er go back to Shu. The old man's body may not be able to last until Fan'er comes back."
