    Liu Xun's execution did not cause any disturbance in Chengdu.

    An Le Gong Liu Zhang still stayed in his mansion as before, and no one went to his mansion to comfort him.

    In Liu Xun's house, only the housekeeper went to collect the body, buried it hastily, and set up a mourning hall at home.

    Former Yizhou officials, including Fei Guan, Zhang Song, Meng Da, Dong He, Wu Ban, Wu Yi, etc., did not go to express their condolences.  It's not because the world is cold or people want to drink tea, but because everyone is busy, and Liu Xun's approach is unpopular.

    "If he hadn't gone his own way, how could Zhang Ren, Huang Quan, Ma Chao, Yang Huai and others have rebelled, and Chengdu would have been spared this military disaster.

    The King of Han came to power and was supported by the people. He rewarded farming and weaving and developed commerce. After these policies were publicized by Zhang Song and other officials, everyone knew about it and everyone was happy. Who would still call the former prince Liu Xun? People even began to hate him.  He did.

    The terrain of Chengdu is flat, but it is surrounded by mountains.

    Facing Liu Bei¡¯s 100,000 troops, Deng Ai, Fazheng, and Li Yan quickly made a response strategy.

    Li Yan led Wu Ban, Wu Yi and an army of 20,000 to station in Qingcheng Mountain northwest of Chengdu.  Wang Ping led Liao Hua and Zhou Cang and an army of 20,000 men stationed in Mount Emei, southwest of the capital city.

    Qingcheng Mountain and Emei Mountain seem to be the two gates of Chengdu. If they are closed, it will be easy for Liu Bei's army to enter, but it will be difficult to get out.

    Yizhou is full of dangerous passes. Zhang Yi and Zhang Yi are stationed in Luoxian County, Cheng Gongying is stationed in Jiange, and Yan Yan is stationed in Jiangzhou. With such a layout, once Liu Bei comes in, he will be unable to escape unless he completely captures Yizhou.  Or Chengdu.

    Qingcheng Mountain was originally a strategic location, and Zhang Daoling once preached Taoism on this mountain.  However, after Liu Zhang and Zhang Lu turned against each other, the place was abandoned because Zhang Lu was the grandson of Zhang Daoling. Now Li Yan rebuilt it into a dangerous pass.

    Zhang Song, Dong He, Dong Yun, Fei Yi and others were very efficient. It can be said that the troops and horses were not moved, but the food and grass went first.  When Li Yan and Wang Ping's armies just set out, grain, grass, soldiers, equipment, etc. had already been transported to Qingcheng Mountain and Emei Mountain.

    At the same time, according to the specifications of the Han Palace in Luoyang, the Ministry of Industry was established in Chengdu, with Dong He in charge for the time being, mainly to build some weapons.

    Once the Han army¡¯s weapons are used up, they must be replenished.  They were used to using new weapons, so they still looked down upon the swords, guns, swords and halberds in the Chengdu city treasury.

    The salary has improved, and craftsmen are easy to find. People with high technical content, such as Liannu and Invincible Tianlei, will definitely not be able to make bows and arrows, including the production of Han knives. These craftsmen can quickly learn how to make them.

    At the same time, a secret team escorted Lian Nu, invincible sky thunder and other powerful weapons to Chengdu.

    Liu Bei had an army of one hundred thousand, including wise men like Zhuge Liang, enemies of ten thousand like Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Ma Chao, and barbarians under the command of the Southern Barbarian King Meng Huo.  Although Liu Cong was not afraid, he did not despise them.  It is not easy to annihilate Liu Bei in one battle, nor can it be over in a short time, so be prepared for a protracted war.

    And Liu Cong has not been idle these two days. The princess of Xinna, Wu Ran, is a talented woman and a lady.  After being widowed for many years, my heart was slowly dying.

    However, she was still young after all, and Liu Cong¡¯s fire ignited the long-suppressed passion in her heart, erupting like a volcano.  Every night, the two of them would linger for a long time.

    During the day, Liu Cong took Wu Ran to play in Chengdu.  There are Deng Ai and Fazheng in military affairs, and Zhang Song and others in government affairs. Liu Cong is completely at ease.

    Although there was a fierce battle just a few days ago, the entire city is still very prosperous. After all, there have been relatively few wars here since the Yellow Turban Rebellion.  Moreover, since the Western Han Dynasty, the writing style of the south has become popular.

    When literati get together, it is indispensable to drink and compose poems, so there are many pubs here.  To this day, the food there is very famous.

    In his previous life, Liu Cong was a special soldier and did not like food. However, he had been to Chengdu several times and the various delicacies still left a deep impression on him.

    Therefore, taking this opportunity, Liu Cong planned to try the delicacies of Chengdu in this era.

    In order not to cause a disturbance, Liu Cong paid a private visit incognito. Liu Hu took two guards, Wu Ran and other five people disguised as a rich family couple and their entourage.

    Of course, there are hundreds of people from the Forbidden Army who are disguised as common people, merchants, etc., and blend in with the nearby crowd.

    At the turn of spring and summer, there was a drizzle last night.  This morning, there were clear clouds floating in the sky, and the sun cast its rays on some ancient trees in the city, making the leaves look extremely green.  Liu Cong and his group walked around for about half an hour and felt a little tired.?So I wanted to sit down in a pub.

    "Master Young Master that tavern is good!" Liu Hu pointed forward.

    Liu Cong took a look and saw that it was indeed a luxury restaurant. It was taller than the buildings on both sides. It was about three stories tall. There were three gilded characters on the wide door - Zuixian Tower.

    "Okay, let's go to Zuixian Tower!"

    As soon as Liu Cong and the other five people came in, the hotel waiter immediately welcomed them warmly.  Judging from their outfits, their identities are definitely extraordinary.  Either he was a son of a wealthy businessman or an official, so the waiter didn't dare to neglect him and went straight to the second floor.

    ""Drinking Alone under the Moon"" Liu Cong discovered that this poem was hanging in the main hall on the second floor. The framing technique was good, and the writing was in the popular Feibai script.  The whole picture is about four feet high and more than nine feet long. It is a banner.

    Beside this banner, many scribes are reading.

    "Young master, you have good eyesight. This is an ancient and unparalleled poem "Drinking Alone under the Moon" that the King of Han wrote at the Mingyue Tower Poetry Meeting when he was welcoming his bride in Jiangdong. As soon as this poem came out, it shocked all the talented people in Jiangdong. They  I won¡¯t even dare to write poetry anymore.¡± The waiter saw that Liu Cong was very concerned about this poem and hurriedly explained.

    ¡°It¡¯s indeed a good poem!¡±

    ¡°The King of Han¡¯s talent and learning are truly impressive!¡±

    "A pot of wine among the flowers, drinking alone without any close friends, raising a glass to invite the bright moon, facing each other to form three people! This poem expresses the voice of the drinker!"

    Many scribes marveled.

    Wu Ran has also studied poetry since childhood, so she can naturally see the excellence of this poem and respect her husband Liu Cong next to her.

    And Liu Hu admires him as always.

    Liu Cong was a little embarrassed and kept apologizing to Li Bai, the Immortal of Poetry.

    "My lords, please see, all the poems hanging on the wall here are the poems of the King of Han. There are not only five words, but also seven words. Although the King of Han did not write many poems, each one of them can be called an ancient masterpiece, and no one has it in the contemporary era.  Comparable, comparable to Qu Yuan." At this time, the boss of Zuixian Tower appeared, "Reading the poems of the King of Han and drinking Wanli Fragrant Wine are one of the great pleasures in life!"

    "There is also Wanli Xiangjiu!"

    "Boss, bring the wine quickly."

    ¡°Bring all the good Hunan dishes!¡±

    The scribes suddenly became excited, and the hall was immediately filled with seats.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
