Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle
Chapter 69: Dark Night, Arson
When the last ray of sunlight disappeared, darkness gradually took over the world.
There were dozens of big men standing in the yard, they were wrapped in black clothes with only a pair of eyes exposed.
When they saw Yan Liang coming out, everyone saluted him.
Yan Liang looked coldly in one direction, his face as gloomy as water. He had already explained everything that needed to be explained last night, and now he did not explain anything more, but just uttered two words coldly from between his teeth.
"Set off."
"only."
In the blink of an eye, the man in black disappeared into the night like a ghost.
The anger in Yan Liang's eyes did not subside in the slightest.
This group of people first insulted him outside Nanpi City, and then encouraged the lord to send troops to fight against Dong. In his eyes, these actions were undoubtedly a way to death. The emperor was in trouble, but in his heart, it didn't matter at all, because he clearly remembered that when his family suffered from drought and fled everywhere, where was the emperor? When his family was bullied by bandits and cried for mercy, where was the emperor?
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, like huge rocks pressing down on his heart.
Then, he saw a flame rising into the sky. The huge rock that was weighing on his heart seemed to be melted by the fire in an instant. The resentment on his face gradually dissipated, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
In his mind, as long as Liu Yu died, all of this would be over. Yuan Shao would not go to war because he had no legitimate reason to do so. In this way, he and the soldiers he had led with great effort would not have to leave their homeland and fight to the death for a puppet emperor.
The fire grew brighter and brighter, as if to illuminate the entire sky. He could vaguely hear shouts and cries for help. To his ears, these sounds were the most beautiful notes.
Ever since he begged for mercy from the bandits to no avail, he secretly swore to himself that such a voice would never come out of his mouth again.
But after he learned martial arts, he found that he inexplicably liked this sound. When this sound came from his opponent's mouth, he would inexplicably feel a sense of pleasure.
He looked at the fire, the smile on his face getting wider and wider. Suddenly, he felt something was wrong. The scope of the fire was getting bigger and bigger, and it seemed to have exceeded the scope he had just limited.
He turned his head and looked at the soldier standing behind him, and ordered, "Go and see what's going on with the fire."
The soldier responded and walked out quickly. After a while, the soldier came running over.
"General, it's bad. The fire has spread to the lord's mansion."
Yan Liang's eyes narrowed.
"My Lord's Mansion, how is this possible? The inn is two streets away from my Lord's Mansion, how could the fire spread there?"
The soldier was also confused. He didn't understand what was going on. This matter had been carefully planned in advance. No matter what, the fire could not be set on Yuan Shao's mansion. He had just walked out of the door and had not walked far when he determined the location at a glance. He was very familiar with this location. He had been there countless times with Yan Liang, so it couldn't be wrong. He heard people's voices boiling in the distance, running to put out the fire.
"Could it be that the wind fueled the fire?" the soldier expressed his thoughts carefully.
Yan Liang looked at the rising flames and said angrily, "There is no wind here. Even if there is some wind, it is from the east. Don't forget that the lord's mansion is to the east of the posthouse."
The soldier looked embarrassed and worried. Yes, even if there was some wind, it would be impossible for it to blow to the lord's mansion. It would make no sense at all.
Yan Liang's heart, which had just been relieved, became a little depressed again. He waved his hand, signaling the soldiers to retreat. The soldiers felt relieved and retreated to the side carefully.
Yan Liang turned his attention back to the posthouse. The fire there had dimmed. It was obvious that his plan was nearing completion. If everything went as he expected, good news would come soon. Although he encountered unexpected situations this time, he could accept them as long as he could get rid of Liu Yu.
Although the lord's mansion was burned down, there were many soldiers in his mansion and their lives must be safe. The only thing that can be foreseen is that he will be furious and send people to investigate the cause of the fire. All the people will die, and everything will become unprovoked. Even if someone suspects him, without evidence, it will be left unresolved in the end.
Yan Liang felt that everything was under his control, and a smile appeared on his face again.
At this moment, a man in black ran over from outside. He was covered in blood, with a hint of fear on his face. He staggered in front of Yan Liang.
"Have those people been eliminated?"
"General, they were well prepared and set traps just for us to enter. All the brothers who rushed in were killed. I also escaped at the risk of my life and reported to the general."
Yan Liang's eyes were filled with shock. Could it be that they had known about his plan long ago? How was that possible? This plan was only thought of last night, and the action was taken tonight. The people who participated were all his followers for a long time, so there would be no problem with their loyalty.
Unless Liu Yu had the ability to predict the future, he could not have known his plan.
If this is true, then this person is terrible.
He looked at the man in black in front of him, and suddenly an idea came into his mind.
"Since they were well prepared, how could they let you escape alone?" Yan Liang's eyes seemed to be spitting fire, "You have exposed your position."
The man in black had just calmed down and his eyes were filled with horror. Then he saw a sword shadow, which was like a flame in the night sky, illuminating the dead silence in his eyes.
Yan Liang sheathed his sword, looked at the cold corpse in front of him, and was silent for a long time before he squeezed out a word from between his teeth.
"Captain Li, who secretly gathered soldiers and plotted to assassinate the emperor's uncle, has been killed by this general."
The soldier standing behind Yan Liang had his back already soaked with sweat, and a trace of cold sweat seeped out of his forehead. He tried his best to calm down and responded in a trembling voice.
"only."
"Gather the soldiers and go to the lord's mansion to put out the fire."
"only."
After everyone left, Yan Liang's eyes finally showed a trace of indifference. He murmured to the corpse, "Go in peace. I will take care of your wife and daughter."
Yan Liang straightened his clothes and tried to look calmer. He slowly walked outside the mansion, opened the door, and walked out. The dull footsteps sounded in the streets. Liu Yu was a man of extraordinary wisdom. He was no match for him. He had to put out the fire first. Then he would visit someone else. In yesterday's discussion, he clearly felt that another person also had deep hostility towards Liu Yu, although he didn't know where this hostility came from. He was not good at thinking. In this case, he had to win over others.
