Jincheng flower hour

Liu Hong's abdomen was bleeding, and enduring the pain, he led the troops to the palace of Shu. He still participated in the battle, although the resistance of the Shu soldiers was very weak at this time.

The king of Shu ran fast, and set fire to the palace. That night, the wind was strong, and even the south of the city caught fire.

Liu Hong organized firefighting, while the king of Han sent his generals to lead the army to pursue the king of Shu.At dawn, the fire in the Palace of Shu was extinguished, and the fire in Fang District in the south of the city was still burning. Both the officials and the people in the south of the city suffered disaster.

There were rumors in the city that the fire was set by the Han army. Fortunately, many people saw and participated in Liu Hong's behavior of fighting the fire last night, so the rumor did not spread.

After daybreak, the Han army confirmed that the Shu soldiers had withdrawn from Jinguan City. The King of Han invited all the generals and officials to the Shu Palace to discuss matters. One-third of the palace was burned down, but people can still live in it, and the venue is also large.

Anmin's call to action was handed out from the Shu Palace early in the morning, and countless copies were copied and posted in the market square area.Advise the people not to panic, business as usual.

All the captured officials of the Shu State fell together under His Royal Highness, except for a few key criminals, and the rest were released by the King of Han, who was not easy to kill and was generous.

Everything in Jinguan City remains the same, the only difference is that the king of Shu was expelled, and countless imprisoned merchants and sons of wealthy families were released, which is good news for the people of Jinguan City.

After receiving orders from the King of Han, Liu Hong entered the county mansion with his subordinates and staff.

The battle in Jinguan City was over, but the affairs of the county government still needed to be dealt with. Liu Hong's handling method was simple and rude, asking the county government officials to escort all the prisoners out of the prison and go forward to state his crimes.Liu Hong sat in the hall, looked through the case file, and verified that it was correct. Those who were guilty were taken back to continue to stay in prison, and those who were not guilty were released on the spot.

As for those who committed crimes among the county officials, they were also dismissed and punished.

The humble life in his early years made Liu Hong hate evil officials and understand the sufferings of the common people.

All the prisoners in the prison were dealt with fairly, and the large group of innocent scribes who were imprisoned were naturally released.They saw Gong Zihong's appearance and speech in the hall, and they were surprised at his youth and decisiveness.

This is a very majestic and handsome man, dressed in a red robe and full of blood, speaks coldly, and acts impartially and strictly.

After releasing more than a hundred people from prison to go home, it was already noon, Liu Hong rested in the county mansion, and asked his subordinates to report important matters at any time.

Liu Hong was really tired, so he asked his attendants to help him change his clothes, and invited a doctor from Jinguancheng to treat his abdominal injury.

Lao Qiu is a military doctor, and his management methods are quite crude.

Liu Hong was lying on the couch, and the doctor rehabilitated, sewed and bandaged the wound for him.

This doctor is said to be a famous doctor in Jinguan City, and his technique is very light. Liu Hong fell asleep during the bandaging process.

When he woke up again, a general came to report that the body in the south of the city had been disposed of and buried, but Wei Jia's body was not found.

Liu Hong sat up from the couch and asked his attendants to help him dress. His intelligence learned that Wei Jia did not leave with the King of Shu and Wei Shuai, and Wei Jia's body was not found at this time, so it is obvious that this person Still in Jinguan City, and still alive.

Many of the generals of the Shu State disappeared after this battle. After all, they took off their armor and changed into ordinary clothes, and then blended in with the people.But for the safety of Jinguan City in the future, these people still need to be found.

"Go down."

Liu Hong didn't have any new instructions, he didn't want to kill Wei Jia.

On this day, as Liu Hong expected, news was reported from time to time. Jinguan City had just been captured, and there were so many things to do. Liu Hong asked Huo Yuqi to take up the post of county guard and help him deal with affairs.Liu Hong went back to the couch to catch up on sleep, but he was still asleep, and because of an urgent call, Liu Hong rode to the Shu Palace to meet his father, the King of Han.

The king of Han had many generals under his command, and the king of Shu retreated to Linqiong, and had already sent generals to pursue them, so there would not be large-scale battles in Jinguan City, at most there would be small battles.This urgent call, Liu Hong knew it was because of other things.

Arriving at the Palace of the King of Shu, I saw the King of Han hosting a banquet. There were a lot of guests, including famous scholars, merchants, and respected old men in Jinguan City.Liu Hong attended the banquet and sat on the main seat with the king of Han.

That night, the officials and the people drank and talked happily, and Liu's father even awarded several civil servants on the spot.At this time, the official vacancy in Jinguan City needs talents to fill.

After the banquet ended in the middle of the night, Liu Hong was called to his side by Liu's father, who joked that he wanted to reward Liu Hong and rewarded six beauties in the Shu palace.

They are all young women, beautiful and soft, with graceful figures, and good at singing and dancing.

Father Liu patted Liu Hong on the shoulder and said meaningfully: "Ah Hong, this siege has been exhausting, you should take a good rest and enjoy the fine wine of Maggie."

Liu Hong had no choice but to thank them, and took the six beauties away.

Although it is not good to be greedy for beauty, if you have no interest in women, it is by no means a good thing.

Seeing Liu Hong leaving with the charming women, Liu's father was in a good mood, and he also had good intentions.

Not to mention that Liu Hong is currently injured, even if he is not injured, he will not find a woman to stay with him.But the six beauties can't be "thrown away", this is a gift from my father.

Liu Hong picked two of them and asked them to serve him in the bedroom, but it was just to help him bathe and change clothes.

After two hard days, Liu Hong finally got a good night's sleep.

He rested on the couch, feeling empty around him, remembering that Zhuang Yang had accompanied him for two nights in the military tent, those two nights were really memorable.

Liu Hong already knew that Zhuang Yang had returned to the Zhuang family, and tomorrow the King of Han would reward him for his meritorious deeds, yet Liu Hong couldn't get away to see him.

He missed Erlang so much, but didn't know that Erlang missed him?

Zhuang Yang lived a leisurely life at home without realizing it, recuperating at home, looking at flowers, reading books, and writing articles.

In the afternoon, several of his literary friends came to visit him. Everyone already knew that he and Gong Zihong were old friends, and they all felt very strange.

Some people naturally want to get some benefits and get close to Zhuang Yang. Zhuang Yang treats people politely. As for false requests, he tactfully refuses them.

Sending these people away, it seems that they are dissatisfied, Zhuang Yang thinks it's good, he won't find them again next time.The King of Han loved talent, and if he really had real talent, he could recommend himself, and the petition for talent and Anmin was posted all over Jinguan City.

Walking out of the hospital on crutches, I saw the neighbors outside the hospital were busy, the children were playing, and my life was peaceful.

Last night, Shu soldiers patrolled the city, and there was no more robbery or murder. The bandits who committed crimes in Jinguan City in the past were also arrested and imprisoned.

When Qin Shuzuo and Zhang Yushi came here, Zhuang Yang was writing about the Han army's siege battle in his study.The two were led upstairs by fine silk, and the three of them met each other, which was really embarrassing.

"Yesterday I wanted to see Zhuang Lang, but I was afraid of being caught by the Han army, so I hid in the house and shivered."

Zhang Yushi laughed at himself.

"Even I was too scared to understand. I heard that Young Master Hong asked me to wait until the mansion to report on my duties, and said goodbye to my wife and children in tears. I thought this trip would be Huangquan Road."

Qin Shuzuo deeply felt that he was the rest of his life after the catastrophe, and he must have a future blessing.

"Young Master is magnanimous and will not kill innocent people indiscriminately."

Zhuang Yang smiled, if he knew that Ah Hong would not kill people casually, but these two close friends didn't know.They are officials of the enemy country. Although their official positions are small, they are also afraid of being persecuted.

"If you want to say that this son of the King of Han is really the face of the sun, the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix!"

Qin Shuzuo met Liu Hong in the hall, and even had a conversation with him. Looking back now, I still feel quite shocked.

"I heard that he and Zhuang Lang are old friends of Linqiong, does Zhuang Lang have such a thing?"

Zhang Yushi didn't like to listen to hearsay, he had to ask himself to believe it.

"Young Master Hongwei lived in Fengxiang, Linqiong, and he and I happen to be from the same hometown."

Zhuang Yang thought that many people probably knew about this, and it was not a secret.

"There is another matter. I heard people say that Zhuang Lang was captured by Wei Chuan in exchange for Wei Jia who was captured by the Han army. Is this true?"

From Qin Shuzuo's point of view, this is very surprising, Zhuang Yang is just an ordinary commoner, how could the Han army be willing to change him.

"I saved Gong Zihong in the early years, so he repays my kindness."

Zhuang Yang was more than just Liu Hong's benefactor, he was the person on Liu Hong's heart, but Zhuang Yang would not tell the outside world about such a thing, and it was really helpless to hide it from his friend.

"But I don't know if Wei Jia is alive or dead."

Zhuang Yang was quite concerned. He hadn't seen Mr. Zimu in the past two days.

"There is a rumor."

Zhang Yushi lowered his voice, and said mysteriously: "I heard that he was rescued by his old servant. I don't know where he hid it?"

"It's also strange. There are several rewards posted on the city wall, but there is no Wei Jia."

Zhang Yushi continued.

These rewards are posted by the county guards, and the rewards are considerable.

Zhuang Yang thought, the King of Han definitely wanted to capture Wei Jia, and as for why there was no reward, maybe there was something wrong in the middle.However, knowing that Wei Jia was still alive, he worried more about his husband.

Zhuang Yang sent Qin Zhang and his two friends away, and asked Ah Yi to go to Zhou's house to see if Mr. Zimu was there at night.

Since Mr. Zimu went to Chang'an, Zhou's house has become a deserted place again, full of weeds.

Ah Yi hurried back, saying that there was no one in the house, and the emptiness was as scary as a haunted house.

Zhuang Yang was delayed by his leg injury, which made it difficult for him to move. When he recovers from his injury, he will try to see Mr. Zimu.

That night, the king of Han was in the palace of the king of Shu, discussing meritorious deeds and rewards, and Zhou Jing was also present.

In terms of credit, Zhou Jing's two proclamations played a big role. The first one exposed the crimes of the king of Shu, aroused the indignation of the people of Shu, and made the officials and people in Jinguan City alienated.The second is a pacification notice after entering the city. The words are earnest, think about what the people think, and solve the confusion of the people, so that the people of Shu who are in a panic due to the city's collapse can feel at ease.

With Zhou Jing's talent, it's probably the prime minister's talent.

It's just that when this person was young, his family members were high-ranking officials, but they were slaughtered due to power struggles, and he always wanted to hide from the world.

Go to Zhou Jing for a reward, and Zhou Jing goes out to thank you.

Zhou Jing's reward was particularly rich and coveted.

It can also be seen that the King of Han appreciated Zhou Jing.

After Zhou Jing thanked him, he returned to his seat, and the people around him talked and talked, but he indulged in fine wine and drank to his heart's content.

After the banquet, Zhou Jing asked his attendants to take the property rewarded by the King of Han back to the official residence. He rode out of the Shu Palace alone, and went to an old house in the dark.

The house is like a haunted house, gloomy, with weeds in the yard.

Zhou Jing walked through the grassy veranda, he was calm and calm.

The rooms in the veranda are all dilapidated, the doors and windows are crooked, Zhou Jing pushed open a room at the end of the veranda.

The room was dark, with no lighting, and only felt a fishy smell.

"Mr. Zimu?"

An old voice faintly sounded from behind the door.

"it's me."

Zhou Jing responded, he groped in the dark and came to a couch.

With the limited moonlight, a tall man could be faintly seen lying on the couch. The man was motionless, as if in a coma.
