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

"The second son, Dan'er, has an impulsive personality, often does things regardless of the consequences, and cannot be his master."

"Although the third son, Mao'er, is older than Zhang'er, his body has been weak since he was a child, and he has been sick all year round. He is not a sign of longevity, and naturally he is not the person entrusted to him."

"Although Zhang'er is the youngest, he is intelligent, studious, honest and talented, and he cares about the livelihood of the people. He is indeed the master of Yizhou."

"Therefore, the old man intends to establish Zhang'er as the successor of Yizhou, otherwise, why bother to let Zhang'er return to Shu."

Wu Yi was secretly pleased that Liu Yan made Liu Zhang the heir of Yizhou, and Wu Cheng married Liu Yan, who was the wife of Zhou Mu.

And he, Wu Yi, is Zhou Mu's eldest brother-in-law. He will naturally be the number one minister under Liu Zhang in the future, and the Wu family will also become the largest family in Yizhou.

Liu Yan took Wu Yi's reaction into his eyes, and said calmly, "But Zhang'er is young after all, and his character is a little cowardly, so Ziyuan needs to be good at helping him."

Wu Yi immediately patted his chest and promised: "Uncle, don't worry, my nephew will definitely go through fire and water, and I will not hesitate to do so."

Liu Yan nodded: "Since that's the case, the old man will send a letter to Chang'an and hand it over to Dong Zhuo."

"Ziyuan, let's go back to the mansion first, tell Cheng'er about this, and make her happy too."

Wu Yi nodded, stood up, cupped his hands to Liu Yan and said, "Here, uncle, my nephew will take my leave."

"Well, Ziyuan walk slowly."

Wu Yi left the State Shepherd's Mansion happily, without knowing that he had fallen into the trap carefully prepared by Liu Yan.

To be precise, Wu Cheng has fallen into the trap carefully prepared by Liu Yan.

After sending Wu Yi away, Liu Yan also breathed a sigh of relief. The first step has been successful, and the next step is the second.

At this time, a brightly dressed woman appeared from behind the screen, about sixteen or seventeen years old, extremely beautiful.

This woman is Zhang Lu's stepmother Zhu Shi.

According to the research of relevant modern scholars, Zhang Lu's biological mother, Lu Shi, died of illness together with Zhang Lu's father in her early years.

Mrs. Zhu is proficient in facial beauty techniques. Although she is 30 years old, she looks like a girl of sixteen or seventeen years old in terms of figure and appearance.

Liu Yan frowned slightly: "When did you come?"

Mrs. Zhu smiled lightly: "I am a frequent visitor to the State Shepherd's Mansion, why did the Lord State Shepherd suddenly ask such a question today?"

Liu Yan said lightly: "Because you are too free to go in and out of the State Shepherd's Mansion, there have been some rumors in Mianzhu, which is not good for your reputation."

Zhu said with a smile: "The concubine is not afraid of rumors, is it possible that the state shepherd is afraid?"

"Hmph..." Liu Yan looked dissatisfied, "Although the old man is not afraid of rumors, he is worried that some people will believe them easily."

The person Liu Yan was talking about was naturally Zhang Lu.

Liu Yan kept Zhu's family and Zhang Lu's younger brother Zhang Zheng in Mianzhu as hostages, and then he was relieved to appoint Zhang Lu as the prefect of Hanzhong.

Once the rumor reached Zhang Lu's ears, Liu Yan worried that Zhang Lu would become suspicious.

If the widow of the father's generation is occupied by others, it is a shame and a shame, and no man can bear it.

This is the reason why Cao Cao attacked Wancheng and Zhang Xiu surrendered and rebelled again.

What worries Liu Yan the most is that once Zhang Lu betrays, the passage between Yizhou and Chang'an will be completely interrupted.

If Liu Zhang wanted to return to Shu again, he could only pass through Jingzhou.

However, Liu Biao discovered that Liu Yan manufactured vehicles and equipment of the emperor's specifications and reported it to the court.

Therefore, the relationship between Liu Yan and Liu Biao, the uncle and nephew, was not harmonious.

Therefore, Liu Yan treated Zhu and Zhang Zheng very kindly, allowing them to freely enter and leave the state pastoral mansion.

Zhu did not continue this topic, and said with a smile: "I already know Master Zhou's plan, the second step of this plan, if I have help, then Zhang Ziyuan will have no doubts, I don't know what Master Zhou thinks?"

Liu Yan frowned and thought about it, and finally nodded: "Okay, then I will have to trouble Mrs. Zhang."

But when Wu Yi returned to the mansion, he immediately sent someone to call Wu Cheng and told her about it.

If we talk about Wu Cheng's appearance, he is indeed extremely beautiful, not inferior to the daughters of Du and Zou, and the best in Shuchuan.

Before Wu Yi came to Shu with Liu Yan, Zhang Lu's mother was the most beautiful woman in Shuchuan, but now Zhang Lu's mother has good looks, but she is also surpassed by Wu Cheng.

"Ah..." It was so sudden that Wu Cheng couldn't help being startled.

However, after being surprised, Wu Cheng didn't object at all.

After all, in Yizhou, marrying the son of the state shepherd is naturally the best choice.

When he was in Luoyang, Wu Cheng had met Liu Zhang before, and he had a fairly good impression of him.

Besides, even if Wu Cheng was dissatisfied, but her eldest brother was like a father, and Wu Yi had arranged a marriage for her, Wu Cheng had no right to object.

Wu Cheng blushed a little, and said to Wu Yi, "Amaranth is up to the elder brother to make the decision."

"Okay." Wu Yi nodded and said with a smile, "In this case, you should make some preparations. When Ji Yu returns from Chang'an, the two of you will get married immediately."

"Here." Wu Cheng stood up, answered, and went back to her boudoir.

……

In the son-in-law's mansion, the servants were busy for a while.

Today is a big day, the consort Fu Wan invited Zhendong General Hua Yu to come to the mansion as a guest.

General Zhendong, Marquis of Qixiang, Zhijinwu, and Hua Yu are high-ranking and powerful, and they are trusted by Dong Zhuo. They are the most popular figures in Chang'an City.

After Cai Yong's housewarming ceremony, many high-ranking officials in Chang'an City invited Hua Yu to the mansion to show their friendship.

These people obviously made friends with Hua Yu, but secretly fell to Dong Zhuo's camp.

There is no way, since Dong Zhuo moved the capital, the entire Sili area has been managed like an iron bucket by him.

Li Que, Guo Si, Fan Chou, Zhang Ji, Niu Fu and other Dong Zhuo's confidants led heavy troops to guard Jing Zhaoyin, You Fufeng, Zuo Fengyi, Hedong County and Hongnong County respectively.

Among them, Jing Zhaoyin, You Fufeng, and Zuo Fengyi defended Chang'an, the capital's division, while Hedong County and Hongnong County defended against the Baibo Army and the Kwantung princes.

As for Hua Yu, leading an army of [-], guarding Chang'an.

Dong Zhuo's Gongwu also has [-] Xiliang elites, echoing Chang'an.

As for those Kwantung coalition forces.

Can't make a climate.

Between the Sili area and the Kanto, there are the dangers of Jiguan and Hangu Pass, which can make more than [-] Kwantung allied troops look at the pass and sigh.

Therefore, the Sili area is Dong Zhuo's world, and the emperor is just a puppet.

The feudal lords of the Guandong could not count on it, Liu Yan of Yizhou was silent, and Liu Biao of Jingzhou sent people to pay tribute.

Ma Teng and Han Sui from Xiliang were originally Dong Zhuo's generals.

It is said that Dong Zhuo has promised them benefits recently, and the two sides are planning a grand plan to crusade against the princes of the Kanto.

Therefore, under such circumstances, it is also very helpless for some royalists to fall into Dong Zhuo's camp.

It's just that Fu Wan is the son-in-law, and behind Fu Wan is Princess Liu Hua of Yang'an.

Princess Yang'an Liu Hua is a clan member of the Han family, and behind her is the emperor Liu Xie.

What kind of signal does Fu Wan invite Hua Yu?

The clan of the Han Dynasty compromised with Dong Zhuo?
Emperor Liu Xie completely bowed his head to Dong Zhuo?
No matter what the situation is, Fu Wan invited Hua Yu to drink in the mansion, and Hua Yu agreed.

Moreover, before Hua Yu came, Fu Wan had been waiting at the gate of the mansion.
