Three Kingdoms: From Hulaoguan to Global Hegemony

Chapter 96

After being invited into the living room, Huangfuying and her mother retreated to the inner courtyard, leaving only Huangfusong and his son to talk with Liu Yu.

Recruiting Huangfusong was like rain after a long drought for Liu Yu. Before that, Situ Mansion and Yang Xiu didn't get too many clues to solve the mystery of the mysterious rich businessman.

And with Huang Fusong's oath of allegiance to Liu Yu, he can clearly understand the various secrets inside the royalist faction, as well as news about the mysterious rich businessman.

"Did Wang Yun, Xun Shuang and Yang Biao ever visit the mansion at noon?"

"Back to Zhongshan King, they did come and brought a lot of living supplies, but... I declined all of them!"

Liu Yu was taken aback when he heard the words, he knew that Huangfu Song was clean and honest, but he still had such a good face in this period, didn't he seem a bit pedantic.

After all, today's Huangfu family is not as rich as it was in the north of the city.

It's just that Liu Yu's thought only existed for a moment and then changed immediately, because he could see the strong resentment in Huangfusong's eyes.

It seems that the so-called polite refusal should hide other stories.

Sure enough, before Liu Yu could speak, Huangfusong first asked about Liu Yu's gathering in Situ's Mansion.

"The three of Wang Yun and Wang Yun came to my mansion in the afternoon to chat about King Zhongshan. I heard from them that King Zhongshan also... joined the royalist faction?"

Huangfusong made a long sound for the word Ye, and it was obvious that he didn't want Liu Yu to get too close to Wang Yun and the others.

Liu Yu couldn't figure out the reason, but at this moment he saw resentment from Huangfusong's expression, not only Huangfusong, but also his son Huangfuyan also showed an angry expression.

"Is there anything wrong with joining the royalist faction?"

Huangfusong sighed hesitantly, but Huangfuyan said anxiously: "Is father still hesitating?"

Hearing his son's reminder, Huangfusong's eyes became firm.

"As a father, I have sworn allegiance to King Zhongshan, how could I hesitate, but in the end my friendship with Wang Yun has been treated as an abandoned son by him. It is really hard to accept."

Then I heard Huangfusong talk about the whole process of his imprisonment, and how reluctant Wang Yun and others were to rescue their father and son afterwards.

It turns out that after Huangfusong was imprisoned, he asked his son Huangfuyan to go to the Sangong Mansion for help.

At the beginning, Wang Yun and Xun Shuang were very active after hearing the news, but when Dong Zhuo sent someone to hint that they had to pay certain conditions if they wanted to rescue Huangfusong, they immediately misfired and never tried to rescue Huangfusong again. Things.

An angry Huangfuyan made a big fuss in Situ's mansion, and after being kicked out, he still yelled at Wang Yun and others outside the Canglong Gate for being the same as Dong Zhuo.

It happened to be heard by Guo Bang in the Taiwei's mansion, and he was also thrown into the prison.

"Actually, I was instructed by Wang Yun to disseminate Dong Zhuo's cholera guidelines in private. The purpose is naturally to take advantage of Luoyang's lack of food, so that the officials and the people will point the finger at Dong Zhuo."

"And Wang Yun also promised beforehand that if something happens, they will protect my family from suffering."

Speaking of this, Huangfusong clenched his fists a little excitedly. He was used by his friends for many years, and his family also suffered together afterwards. This made him really unable to forgive the royalists for their actions.

What makes Liu Yu feel strange is why Wang Yun and others did not agree to Dong Zhuo's conditions, is it because the conditions for rescuing Huangfusong are difficult to achieve?
"Just now General Huangfu said that Dong Zhuo hinted that he could let you go, but I don't know what conditions he asked Wang Yun and others?"

When Liu Yu mentioned this matter, Huangfusong became even more annoyed.

"Dong Zhuo first asked the Xun family to leave Luoyang City in exchange for my life. Naturally, Xun Shuang would not take the interests of the whole family as a bargaining chip, so I did not blame him. Later..."

"...Dong Zhuo sent someone to find Wang Yun again, and said that as long as Wang Situ is willing to give him the most beautiful dancer in the mansion, he can let her go!"

"I was overjoyed when I heard the news in prison, and thought that Wang Yun would definitely agree to it based on the friendship between the two of us. Who would have thought that Wang Yun only sent Dong Zhuo an ordinary dancer, and Dong Zhuo accepted it in a rage. Lost all the property of the Huangfu family, and ordered anyone who dares to intercede to be punished!"

"Could it be that the old man has paid so much for the royalists, but in the end he is not as good as a dancer?"

Hearing this, Liu Yu finally understood why Huangfusong and his son were so hostile to Wang Yun and the others.

As a teammate, it's nothing more than killing a donkey, but it's too unreasonable to refuse to save him at a critical moment.

And Liu Yu's just appearance not only rescued Huangfusong's family, but also came in a timely manner when Huangfusong was desperate.

That's why Huangfusong was especially grateful to Liu Yu, and he was successfully recruited by Liu Yu naturally.

Thinking of this, Liu Yu smiled at his good luck, and at the same time, he wondered what kind of stunning dancer could make Dong Zhuo so excited and Wang Yun so reluctant, could it be Diao Chan?

"Does General Huangfu know the name of that dancing girl?"

"Hmm... that's not an ordinary dancing girl. Wang Yun has always raised her as a foster daughter, and her nickname is Diao Chan!"

Sure enough, it was Diao Chan, but it was also understandable why Wang Yun was unwilling to trade her for Huangfusong's life.

Liu Yu, who is familiar with history, knows that Diao Chan is the trump card in Wang Yun's hands, and he will not play this card easily unless he has to.

Knowing that Huangfusong and Wang Yun and others were in harmony with each other, Liu Yu had no more scruples, and Huangfusong also told him all the secrets he knew about the royalists.

But when it comes to the mysterious rich businessman, Huang Fusong knows the same thing as Yang Xiu, saying that Wang Yun only had correspondence with the mysterious rich businessman, but he is not the driving force behind the mysterious rich businessman.

Huangfusong's loyalty is 100 and he has a bad relationship with Wang Yun and others, so he should not lie, so Liu Yu can only temporarily think that he, like Yang Xiu, has not yet touched the core secrets.

"By the way, there were rumors in the city that General Huangfu's subordinate Captain seemed to be in collusion with a mysterious wealthy businessman. I wonder if General Huangfu can still contact that subordinate?"

A few months ago, the mysterious wealthy businessman delivered food outside the city many times, and it was the school gatekeeper who helped him cover up and let him escape the interrogation. Otherwise, the many large transactions would definitely attract the attention of the court.

If we can find the little school guarding the city gate, we will be able to track down the whereabouts of the mysterious rich businessman.

It's a pity that Huangfusong shook his head after listening.

"I'm not very familiar with the captain. I only remember that his surname is Huang, and he was a county guard transferred from his hometown of Nanyang County. After the accident, I sent troops to Nanyang to search for him, but I heard from the locals that the captain surnamed Huang brought him with him overnight. The family hid in Jingnan."

Jingnan is very far away from Luoyang, if you want to send someone there to find someone, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack, Liu Yu knows that this clue is broken.

When the transaction was rejected, it was impossible to use clues to find the food storage place of the mysterious rich businessman. Xiaoxiao fled to Jingnan and lost the clues to track down and prove the identity of the mysterious rich businessman. Even Wang Yun and others were the driving force behind the mysterious rich businessman. Confused.

This is the first time Liu Yu has felt that the food price problem in Luoyang may be more complicated and difficult than he imagined.

At present, it seems that only by completely gaining the trust of Wang Yun and others can it be possible to find more useful clues.

This matter cannot be rushed, but right now there is an urgent matter that needs to be explained to Huangfusong and his son.
