The Three Kingdoms: The Prodigal Son of Shu Han, starting with a fiery blaze at Wolong Ridge.

Summary

In Jiuquan County, the local people remained hostile towards the Han army despite their efforts to distribute grain. The people saw the Han soldiers as bullies who killed their loved ones, and they responded with anger and insults. Jia Xu attempted to reason with the crowd, but his eloquence was lacking, and he was met with criticism. Liu Mang stepped in, using his words to strike at the hearts of the townsfolk. He acknowledged that they had been forced to live by plundering merchant caravans and that the Han court had neglected Liangzhou. He offered them a chance to start anew, providing food and land for them to farm and live peacefully. The crowd was won over by Liu Mang's words, and they began to gather food, signifying their acceptance of the Han army. Jia Xu, who had been the target of the crowd's anger, realized that Liu Mang had intentionally made him bear the brunt of their frustrations in order to negotiate with them. Later, Liu Mang spoke with Jia Xu, who lamented the decline of moral standards. Liu Mang offered Jia Xu a chance to clear his name by defeating Gui Shuang in the Western Regions. Jia Xu, who had been seeking redemption, felt a surge of emotion and accepted Liu Mang's offer.
