Chapter 225 Wu Yi is not here
"Yizhou"

"The air of the Son of Heaven!"

"I'm coming too!"

When Liu Yan set foot in Yizhou, he felt relaxed and happy just by feeling the wind of Yizhou. Dong Fu, who was standing beside him, kept boasting that Yizhou had the aura of an emperor, which made him very happy. Although his original intention was to avoid disaster and establish his own regime, between avoiding disaster and becoming an emperor, it was obvious that the latter was more attractive.

Now, the more he looked at the scenery of Yizhou, the happier he was. He was moved, and felt that it was indeed the place where Emperor Gaozu achieved his hegemony! It was truly the place where the dragon rose!
However, Wu Yi saw everything Liu Yan did.

"brother"

A soft voice sounded in his ears, Wu Yi quickly retracted his gaze and looked in the direction of the voice, only to see a young and beautiful girl walking towards him with water.

"What are you doing?"

"I saw that my brother was tired from traveling, so I fetched water for him to wash."

Wu Yi felt warm in his heart, but his hands did not slow down. He grabbed the basin and said in a low voice: "I'll do all this, you don't have to do it."

This was seen by others as both shocking and bizarre.

Wu Yi had no time to pay attention to other people's gazes. He pulled the girl aside, frowned, and scolded her to learn etiquette and not to lose face for the Wu family, but his voice was not firm enough.

Looking at the girl who nodded repeatedly, Wu Yi didn't know whether she really understood or was pretending to understand.

He just felt tired.

The reason was simple. He lost his father at a young age. The girl was his sister and was raised by his mother single-handedly. As time went by, his mother's health became worse day by day, and even the help from the clan was extremely limited.

So his mother gritted her teeth and took him and his sister to Luoyang to seek refuge with her uncle Wu Kuang.

But he met Liu Yan first.

Liu Yan was a good friend of his father. Considering their old friendship, Liu Yan adopted his entire family.

Liu Yan treated him well, and he grew up day by day.

Originally Wu Yi thought that he would spend his whole life in such a peaceful manner, but who would have known that one night, he and his sister were visited by an immortal in their dreams!
The following dream made him ecstatic.

His sister became queen.

someday.

"Eh"

When Wu Yi and Wu Mei were walking on the street, they were interrupted by a strange voice. He looked closely and found that it was a fortune teller.

"What's the matter?"

The fortune teller said, "From my observation of the woman's face, she will be very rich and powerful in the future!"

Wu Yi was particularly happy after hearing this and gave all his money to the fortune teller.

His thoughts gradually returned to the present, and a look of bitterness appeared on Wu Yi's face. If the fortune teller's words were heard by Liu Yan today, wouldn't his sister have to marry Liu Yan's son?
Not to mention that my sister may become the queen in the future.

Take Liu Yan’s sons for example. The eldest and second sons did not come to Yizhou, and they all served in the court.

Only the third and fourth sons followed him. The third son was named Liu Mao. Not only was he not as good as his two elder brothers, but he was also in poor health.

As for the fourth son Liu Zhang
Speaking of Liu Zhang, Wu Yi couldn't help but shake his head. He had a good relationship with Liu Zhang, but Liu Zhang was not yet old enough to get married and was a coward.

As he was thinking about it, Wu Yi originally planned to settle Wu Mei down before dealing with important official matters.

However, just as he took a step, his pupils suddenly shrank and his body couldn't help but tremble.

An old man with white hair on his temples walked past.

Yes. The fortune teller at that time!
Wu Yi shouted, "Sir, please slow down!"

The father-in-law stopped, turned slowly, and looked Wu Yi up and down.

"You recognize me?"

"Have I ever done fortune-telling for you or your brothers and sisters?" "It was in Luoyang, right?"

Wu Yi lowered his head quickly and said, "Not bad."

"Oh, you want my help?"

As if his thoughts were seen through, the father-in-law looked at Wu Yi with a smile.

Wu Yi pretended to be calm and said, "Sir, what are you doing here?"

"It's okay to tell you," the old man said with a smile, "I'm going to read the envoy's face."

Wu Yi felt uneasy when he heard this, but he knew that if Liu Yan heard the result of the last fortune-telling from his father-in-law, his sister would definitely marry Liu Mao.

In this way, wouldn't it offend the immortals???

He gritted his teeth, took out all the money he had, and stuffed it into his father-in-law's hand.

"Sir, please keep it a secret for me."

“good good”

The sudden wealth made the father-in-law so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

But Wu Yi was still afraid that his father-in-law would tell others about his fortune. He bowed to his father-in-law and swore, "Father-in-law, if you help me this time, I will reward you handsomely one day! God is above and the earth is below. If you break this oath, you will be killed by both heaven and man!"

In the Han Dynasty, from the royal family and nobles to the peddlers and hawkers, except for a guy who farted in Luoshui a few decades later, even murderers and robbers would not swear easily.

What’s more, the first one was such a poisonous oath.

It has reached the level of the heavens and the earth!
Even my father-in-law, who makes a living by reading faces, was shocked. If he wanted me to shut up, couldn't he just kill me? Why did he swear an oath?
"Pfft, ptff, ptff, please don't say that, my dear. I promised you, and I promised you."

Wu Yi heaved a sigh of relief when his father-in-law left, but he still felt uneasy, so he turned around and found Wu Mei, drew pimples on her face, and announced to others that his sister had a disfigured disease and could only meet people with a veil.

The news spread quickly, and apart from Liu Yan's initial concern, after a few glances, the young men kept their distance from Wu Mei.
next day
Liu Yan called Wu Yi to the tent and said with a smile, "Yi, when we arrive in Chengdu, what kind of official position do you want to hold?"

He looked at Wu Yi with a smile on his face. Some time ago, when he was reading his fortune, he heard the fortune teller praise Wu Yi.

"Sir, to be honest with you, there is a young man in your army who is very strong and very wary. When he saw me walking towards your tent, he thought I was a thief. I tried to persuade him to show me the token you gave me, otherwise he would have called the soldiers."

"Don't blame me, sir. Wu Yi has been cautious since he was a child!"

His thoughts returned to the present. In short, no matter how Wu Yi answered, as long as it was not excessive, he would agree.

This was a very important opportunity for Wu Yi. He took a deep breath, clasped his fists and knelt on one knee.
"I want to join the army!"

"Join the army? How about Chengdu?"

"No," Wu Yi shook his head, "I want to go to Hanzhong. I want to protect the safety of the envoy and my brother Zhang!"

Wu Yi was grateful to Liu Yan from the bottom of his heart, but he had never thought of helping Liu Yan become emperor, such an impossible thing. Moreover, Liu Zhang was cowardly and not a wise leader.

What’s more, didn’t Liu Zhang live a good life in the future?

Being a rich man may not be a bad thing.

If he could control Hanzhong, would there be no Battle of Hanzhong in the future?
Liu Yan had no idea of ​​Wu Yi's thoughts. He only felt that Wu Yi was honest and reliable, and had the same character as his father. But he didn't want Wu Yi to take risks. However, seeing Wu Yi's determined eyes, he finally let out a long sigh and agreed: "Yi, I order you to be the Sima of another army and follow Zhang Lu to Hanzhong!"

"promise!"

When Liu Yan returned home, he saw Liu Zhang running towards him with a happy face and bowing to him properly.

He couldn't help but laugh and asked, "Zhang'er, what's the matter?"

Liu Zhang asked, "Father, where is Brother Wu Yi?"

Liu Yan said truthfully: "Wu Yi is not here."

For some reason, he felt something was odd, so he added, "He went to Hanzhong."

 Second update, sorry for the poor condition, a little watery, please forgive me
