Chapter 473 (2/2)

“Zizhong, do not worry Once shi+yuan returns frozhou, ill have provisions I prozhou to seek justice for Mi Fang and Zhen Er!” Liu Bei’s words were powerful Others would have already koed after hearing that soeance for your sake However, Mi Zhu had only just received news that his siblings were alive

“Let us seek justice!” The other generals voiced their resentraced their Lord’s wife

Mi Zhu remained in a daze He did not even knohen he left the hall In his hands were three docu’s titles However, he had already lost his siblings

After Mi Zhu had left, Liu Bei and Jian Yong shared a look with srief at all

“Master Gongyou! Master Gongyou!” Mi Zhu left Liu Bei’s residence in disbelief He could not believe his siblings were dead When he saw Sun Qian, he quickly chased the s were truly still alive However, Sun Qian was trying to avoid Mi Zhu When he heard Mi Zhu call out, he walked faster instead of stopping

“Master Gongyou!” Mi Zhu would not allow Sun Qian to leave He rushed forithout care to grab onto Sun Qian

When Sun Qian found himself unable to leave, he braced hi you I just want to ask if s are alive or dead!”

“They are dead! They died at Yingshang! Milord even gave theaze

“They died at Yingshang? Didn’t you tell me differently the other day? You told ain as he pointed out the inconsistency

When Liu Mang attacked Yuzhou, the heavily guarded Yingshang fell first On the other hand, Sun Qian’s eer So it would have been ietting captured if those two had died at Yingshang

“They are dead! I must have seen someone else!” Sun Qian replied erratically He did not dare to look at Mi Zhu directly

Mi Zhu was a first classby looking at Sun Qian’s erratic behavior

“You are lying!” Mi Zhu pulled Sun Qian He no longer cared about offending anyone

“I did not lie! I !”

“You did not see wrongly! My siblings must have been at Ruyin!” Mi Zhu said It was possible that his siblings were dead but they definitely did not die at Yingshang

“Stop being annoying! Anything I say is useless Milord said they are dead that rily and shook hirip Mi Zhu beca for Mi Zhu and left hi muddleheaded His housekeeper noted this but did not dare to inquire Mi Zhu entered his study room and remained there for some time

After that, he asked in a husky voice “Housekeeper Bring that man in the firewood room to me”

“Understood” The housekeeper nodded and did as asked Thisto Sun Qian’s residence ThisSun Qian’s and iht and delivered straight to Liu Bei Fortunately, the nize This was one of the wedding gifts Mi Zhu had given to his sister Mi Zhu even told her that froer part of the Mi Family and that she had to rely on herself

This hairpin was the reason the er was not ier also said that he had so important to discuss Apparently, said matter would be discussed after a few days

Mi Zhu followed the cautious lifestyle of a er alone as it did not er was delivered to Liu Bei i of Shu’s envoy greets Mi Zhu” Liu Mang’s reeted too respectfully

“Tellsent you?” Mi Zhu was in a badwould be his sworn eneer of his sworn enemy

“My Lord only sent me here to deliver your family’s letter!”

“My faed to calm himself down

“Where is this letter? Show it to me!”

“The letter is currently not with me!”

“H’s er replied indifferently and then turned around to leave The housekeeper tried to block his way but was instead stopped by Mi Zhu After a short while, the man returned with the letter

“Where did you hide this?” Mi Zhu asked They had body searched the

“Sir Is there a need to knohere?” The er replied, his face pale

“The sht before and could recognize the ser had turned pale and his back had turned red This fierce man had sewed the letter onto his flesh

When Mi Zhu opened up the letter, he recognized his little brother’s handwriting He was the one that taught Mi Fang horite However, Mi Zhu reed

As he continued to read the letter, he realized that this was truly written by his little brother This is because he wrote about himself and told Mi Zhu not to surrender It was very unlikely that Liu Mang would write and deliver a letter like this

“Since you can’t obtain any benefits, you want to kill my brother and sister?” Mi Zhu snarled

“Kill? Why are you saying that? My Lord may be ene captives! He even dispatched an envoy a few days ago to discuss about returning General Mi Fang and Lady Mi!”

“Return them? They are still alive?” Mi Zhu asked If he had not heard Sun Qian’s words before this, he would not have believed the er’s words

Sun Qian’s said he saw the These two stateain, theHow could Mi Zhu not suspect hier

“That’s right Although General Mi Fang was an ene for someone else My Lord would not kill him for no reason He is also the Left General’s brother-in-law Killing hi no benefits It was better to ransom him for sixty thousand provisions”

Mi Zhu was stunned at the nuht Initially, my Lord did not want to do this but you yourself know that Yangzhou is in dire need of provisions for all the citizens after the Left General’s sches needed to ‘die’ This amount of provisions was too much even if it was not an amount that could not be paid Basically, Liu Bei did not want to pay the sixty thousand provisions It was not too bad if this had been any other general but the ones that needed ransoiven his entire wealth for Liu Bei The total amount was no less than a million provisions The sixty thousand provisions noas a miniscule amount in comparison Yet, Liu Bei refused

“Milord!” Mi Zhu laughed bitterly If Liu Bei had discussed this with hi would not have blamed hiinal ti had betrayed Liu Bei However, Mi Zhu continued to stay loyal

Even then, Mi Zhu remained cold hearted

“Men! Capture this person and sent him to Milord!”
