Chapter 477 (2/2)

“I knew it! I knew that Sun Qian had betrayed Milord!” Mi Zhu laughed “Killanyway! Just make it quick!” Mi Zhu said He had already lost all of his s had already been declared dead So Mi Zhu could not even be used to threaten Liu Bei Mi Zhu was now completely worthless

“Haha! Master Mi Zhu You want to die? It is not so easy!” Wei Yan said the salared for a ht now, he was just a fish on a chopping block His fate was entirely controlled by others “Haha In the end, I, Mi Zhu, is still unable to get a good death”

“Die? You won’t die If you die, Milord will kill me!” Wei Yan shook his head

“Then what do you want?”

“We just want to bring you to Yangzhou and make you an official!” Wei Yan replied indifferently

“What? Make ? Do you still have delusions for that Liu Bei?” Wei Yan asked and then laughed “The Mi Family of Xuzhou Hehehehe They are such a rich family I heard they could s to pieces whenever they want”

“Of course!” Mi Zhu said as he recalled how glorious his life was in the past At that time, he wanted to buy a position in Xuzhou However, he could not as he had no noble title

“It’s a pity you no longer have your vast wealth All that ed for three fanciful titles!” Wei Yan sneered

Mi Zhu became depressed He supported Liu Bei and even married off his sister to him The reward for that is a dead end

“This is all because you guys set le

“Do you think that Liu Bei would still believe you at this point in ti!”

“I…” Mi Zhu becao back regardless of whether he was actually guilty Just this event of hih to paint hi’s men purposefully save him?

“Becoh position and even a noble title!”

“Join Liu Mang? No! You are all liars! You just want to exploitme! I don’t believe you!”

“You don’t believe ’s expectations A merchant only looks at the benefits in front of them So Wei Yan took out a scroll that had the noble color of light yellow

“Mi Zhu Mi Zizhong is to receive this imperial decree!” Wei Yan started to read

“Hm?” Mi Zhu muttered out in confusion

“Why have you not knelt down?” Wei Yan rebuked angrily As Mi Zhu still did not move, Wei Yan had two of his subordinates force Mi Zhu to kneel

“The King of Shu Liu Mang ad’s talents and have personally invited Mi Zhu to Yangzhou as Chief of Cozhou!”

“Ah!” Mi Zhu was in shock He paid no attention to being Chief of Cozhou had all of his attention As Guangzhou was a county, it would make him a county marquis Even if it was a s, comparable to Lu Bu’s Marquis Wen Even Guan Yu was only a Marquis Ting A title is generally above an official position in terms of importance This is why a person is usually called by their title instead of their jobs

“Mi Zhu Mi Zizhong! Are you not going to receive the order?”

“This…Is this real?” Mi Zhu did not dare believe his eyes He had worked so hard and given so ot three titles, what is the use of those titles when they were dead? On the other hand, Liu Mang gave hiood faith before he even joined Liu Mang In the future people had to address hi Mi Zhu He had truly become a noble A noble that is still alive

“Of course it’s real!” Wei Yan said jealously Mi Zhu, a iven a title so easily whereas Wei Yan still needed to work for it It would be strange if he didn’t feel jealous While Wei Yan had a feeling of disdain, he also becaive a enerals like him should also have a chance

“It is real! It is real!” Mi Zhu ’s na could confer titles on his own This was the highest title that Liu Mang could confer Any titles higher than that had to be reported to the Han Emperor for approval Even the title he conferred to Yan Ran had to be reported to the Han E had truly did a lot for Mi Zhu

“Master Mi Zhu It is too early to be happy Milord have also given us orders to kill you if you refuse to follow us to Yangzhou!” Wei Yan warned

“Go! I will go!” Mi Zhu was not an idiot He risked his life working for Liu Bei to only becoet chased down by Liu Bei While he had never seen Liu Mang before, the ood faith If he did not go to Liu Mang, he would truly be an idiot

“Big Eared Liu! You are heartless so you cannot blaht to hih he had hoped that Mi Zhu would not agree Killing Mi Zhu would have been less troubleso on your to advise your siblings in Yangzhou!” Mi Fang and Lady Mi had not yet surrendered He was mostly afraid for his brother as still with the Liu Bei’s Army Lady Mi was also another loyal and devoted person She had al was not like Cao Cao Otherwise, Lady Mi would have died like Xiao Yu

“I will be keeping this” Mi Zhu nodded and laughed as he kept the scroll appointing hi He must not lose it even if he died

“May this one ask for this general’s na that he had been threatened by Wei Yan this entire time because he was too happy

“This one is Wei Yan Courtesy na” Wei Yan replied respectfully He could be disrespectful earlier since Mi Zhu have not yet joined Liu Mang Now that Mi Zhu was one of Liu Mang’s subordinates, he was an ally Wei Yan was not so stupid to offend an ally Besides that, it was obvious that Liu Mang valued Mi Zhu so it was h Wei Yan had a rough temperament, he was also quite a slippery individual

“Can I call you Wenzhang?” Mi Zhu also tried to be intih Wei Yan did not try to kill Mi Zhu a few ave me the position of Chief of Coed completely It is said that merchants are evil because they treat profits like their own mothers Just now he seee he i Eared Liu’ while treating Liu Mang as his Lord

“I also do not know” Wei Yan shook his head

Mi Zhu became a little bit disappointed when he saw Wei Yan shook his head He now thought that it ht not actually be a very important position Fortunately there was still his title as Marquis of Guangzhou Yet he still thought to hih all the trouble just to force a merchant like himself to work for him? He then wondered if his little sister was the reason Even if his little sister had already beencould have been like Cao Cao eird fetishes If this was the case, it would not be too bad to be the King of Shu’s brother-in-law

“Master Mi Zhu”

“Please Zizhong is fine” Mi Zhu repliedI do not knohat Chief of Coside the three advisors!” Wei Yan said

“What?” This was good news for Mi Zhu These three advisors were Xu Shu, Liu Ye and Jia Xu Xu Shu was entirely deserving of his title Liu Ye was not as good as Xu Shu but was also skilled in e of the industrial zone The last one was Jia Xu He was crafty but he was at third place as he was a new addition Liu Mang had one ’s existence was more like a housekeeper instead of an advisor

Mi Zhu could only ih his position would be if he was placed after theh as Sun Qian With such a position and also the noble title, he could tell how sincere Liu Mang was being

Knowing this, Mi Zhu seriously replied “This Mi Zhu will not betray His Highness the King of Shu’s trust”

Although benevolence was hard to co troubled times, it was still important Mi Zhu had never felt valued by others Even if Liu Bei once valued him, it hen he was still rich In other words, Liu Bei valued Mi Zhu’s money but not the individual Mi Zhu

But now, the penniless Mi Zhu was given soHow could Mi Zhu not feelSave these words for the Lord” As a general, Wei Yan did not like these corny speeches “How about we leave the city first before we continue?”

“We have not left the city? Where are we?” Mi Zhu initially thought that they had already left the city

Wei Yan wanted to leave but it was hard to get pass the gates because of Yang Jie’s incident It would have been hard to escape with Mi Zhu inside the carriage so Wei Yan decided not to leave iyou’s residence!” Wei Yan smiled

“Sun Qian? Huh?” Mi Zhu was confused He initially believed that Sun Qian had betrayed Liu Bei because of what the er told him Then Wei Yan stabbed Sun Qian with a shich already made him confused once He was now unable to tell whether Sun Qian had really betrayed Liu Bei or was si

“Haha! Who told you that Sun Qian is dead? Don’t worry Sun Qian won’t die!” Wei Yan gave a strange laugh Rather than kill Sun Qian, Wei Yan was more likely to protect Sun Qian This is because Sun Qian was Wei Yan’s lucky star As long as Sun Qian is still alive, Wei Yan could obtain more merits!

“But…!” Can someone as stabbed by a sword still survive?

“Don’t worry!”

“How is he? How is Gongyou?” The frontyard of Sun Qian’s residence were bustling with noise while Wei Yan and the others were hiding in the backyard Soldiers were all standing outside while plenty of doctors holding boxes were lining up Inside was the pale looking owner of the residence, Sun Qian Sun Gongyou

Liu Bei immediately asked when the doctor left the room He had the model expression of a ruler deeply concerned about his people nobody would have suspected that Liu Bei harbored doubts of Sun Qian just a little while ago

“Left General Military Advisor Sun Qian has good luck Although his injuries seeht injury None of his internal organs were harmed All he needs is some rest!” The old doctor replied He could be considered the best doctor in Wancheng

“Doctor Is this aasked in disbelief

Anyone would be unhappy when someone asked this question It was like they did not believe in them and their occupation However, the doctor still replied respectfully when he saw the fierce looking guards “Although the blade went deep into the chest, it was only a superficial wound It missed the heart and even the bones!”

The doctor himself was also impressed by Sun Qian’s luck To be stabbed with a sword and barely suffered any har frowned This was too coincidental

On the other hand, Liu Bei breathed a sigh of relief “He is okay? That is great!”
