"Father, where are you going now!" Zuo Jie was a little puzzled, because his father was injured now, and he should have a good rest at this time instead of running around.
"Still resting? This is imminent, and our Zuo family will be in great trouble soon!" Zuo Li panicked, ignoring the pain on his body, and forced himself to get up, but the buttocks were not up to date. Blood flowed out, Zuo Lina grinned in pain.
"Come here, bring the whole bed to father, and prepare the carriage!" The young man from Zuo Li had another idea, and immediately asked someone to prepare the carriage. Since his father's butt hurts, he might as well move the bed together.
A servant came over soon, and the carriage was ready. Zuo Li was about to get into the carriage, but he shook his head again, "No, no, you can't use a carriage. The carriage is too conspicuous. Change it to an ox cart. Let me cover it with a shed." Zuo Li said in a word, and after tossing and tossing for a while, he set off.
"Father, where are we going?" Zuo Jie still didn't understand why this old man looked so imminent.
"Where are you going? To Zhang Mansion!" Zuo Li said to his son next to him.
"Go to Zhang Changshi's house? Dad, this Zhang Changshi is about to leave, why are you going there!"
"Master Zhang can't leave, and he can't leave. If you are told to go, you can go wherever you want, so much nonsense!" Zuo Lizheng was worried. No matter how much his son said, it would be just for fun.
Zhang Zhao's mansion was on the other side of Jianye City, so Zuo Li's butt was very uncomfortable, but luckily he persisted.
Zuo Li's bullock cart did not dare to go through the front door, but entered through the back door.
Unexpectedly, the back door was extremely congested, with all kinds of broken girls and broken carriages appearing. They are all as concealed as possible.
When the Zuo family father and son entered the Zhang family. It was found that there were already a lot of people gathered there.
"The Zuo Taishou is here too! Is the Zuo Taishou okay with his injury?" Another acquaintance greeted him.
"No! But I have to come." Zuo Li smiled wryly.
'This Zhugejin Jingzhou guy is so vicious to Zuo Taishou. It is true that the lord was deceived by the villain, and even a person like the old magistrate can do it. "The acquaintances on the side say to Zuo Li that they share the same hatred.
If it was a normal day, Zuo Li might have complained a long time ago, but now it seems that Zuo Li doesn't have that kind of thought anymore, because he looks distressed now.
"Where is Ambassador Zhang? I have something important to discuss with Mr. Zhang!" Zuo Li was very anxious. Fortunately, Zhang Zhao showed up soon when Zuo Li was anxious.
"Leader Zuo, our patriarch asked Grand Master Zuo to go to the study!" Zhang Zhao's butler ran over and spoke to the patriarchs of the gentry below, and naturally they all shouted to the great gentry from Jiangdong. Those small gentry are out of scope.
Entering Zhang Zhao's study, everyone else walked past, and only the prefect Zuo Li passed lying down.
After entering Zhang Zhao's room, he naturally had to ask for warmth, and soon got to the point.
"Do you know?" Zhang Zhao said, "The envoy from Yangzhou has arrived in Jiangdong!" Zhang Zhao said to the following Jiangdong Patriarchs.
Of course you know this, if you don't know this, how could these spirits come to your mansion of Zhang Zhao.
But these few people are quiet, besides waiting for Zhang Zhao to make up his mind, they all have another idea, which is to let Zhang Zhao be the leader, or let Zhang Zhao's Zhang family pay more, so that So that they can get more benefits, it would be even better if the Zhang family can be brought down to the same level as them.
Zhang Zhao snorted coldly in his heart. These veteran patriarchs of the gentry just want to get good benefits without paying. It's just a dream.
Zhang Zhao also remained calm, "Okay, good time!" Zhang Zhao said to the following Patriarchs with a smile. "The envoy from Yangzhou is here. I, Jiangdong, don't need to fight that Yangzhou anymore. Isn't it good that everyone works under His Royal Highness the King of Shu? It's a pity that my Zhang family is not so lucky. Zhang wants to leave this place of right and wrong in Jiangdong. I’m going to Xudu!” Zhang Zhao looked like he had nothing to do with himself, because Zhang Zhaodu was sent to Xudu by Marquis Wu and Sun Ce, so these things really have nothing to do with his Zhang family up.
"Master Zhang, no, you can't go!" Seeing that Zhang Zhao was going to be the shopkeeper, a group of family owners around him panicked. If Zhang Zhao, the backbone, ran away, then they would just leave No more associations.
Although it is said that after Zhang Zhao left, more than half of the positions in the Zhang family's power vacuum could be vacated for them and the gentry to fill the vacancy, but if Jiangdong joined Yangzhou, the Jiangdong gentry would panic. When Sun Ce settled in Jiangdong, how many Jiangdong gentry were eradicated, such as Xu Gong's Xu family, Yan Baihu's Yan family, and He. Uprooted.
That's why they are panicked, and even if Liu Mang, the new boss in Yangzhou, doesn't deal with them, the bureaucrats in Yangzhou won't let go of this big cake in Jiangdong. Those with vested interests in the gentry are unwilling to change bosses.
"Master Zhang, this lord has started to lead the horse for that Lu Zijing. There are still a few days left in Jiangdong. This can't be done. Liu thief, you must not teach Jiangdong to him. This butcher Liu killed him in Wancheng. How many of our gentry have been killed, brother Zhou, brother Wang, and brother Dai," said a gentry patriarch next to him, the look of deep pain and disgust made people feel his disgust for Liu Mang, King of Shu in Yangzhou .
It's no wonder, after all, when Liu Mang took control of Lujiang, he was on the verge of killing. When other princes killed the nobles, they might think about these consequences, but Liu Mang was different. He didn't want to, just wanted to Thinking, no one reminded him, Chen Gong is not around, Liu Wei is surrounded by a group of generals, for Liu Wei, as long as someone threatens him, then it will be good to get rid of him naturally, so before Chen Gong wants to It was too late when he came to Wancheng to stop Liu Mang. Liu Mang had already killed all these gentry like chopping watermelons.
Such an act by Liu Mang has completely confirmed his reputation as a butcher. The Lujiang gentry was originally related to the Jiangdong gentry, and now that so many have been killed, can these Jiangdong gentry not let the same enemy!
"No, His Highness the King of Shu is still my Great Han Sage King, so he should be merciful!" Zhang Zhao said with a smile, "Everyone has no grudge against His Highness the King of Shu, and His Highness the King of Shu will not trouble you either. .”
What Zhang Zhao said made the patriarchs of the Jiangdong gentry below even more terrifying. Your words are not comforting words, they are completely intimidating. Which of the Jiangdong gentry in this Jiangdong has not had a feud with that Shu king Liu Mang , what you say is not a threat!
It's not clear to tell these Jiangdong gentry that if Shu Wang Liu Mang takes over Jiangdong, you will be the first to die.
Although Jiangdong is already dilapidated, how can this group of nobles still have a lot of money.
"Master Zhang, you can't leave, you can't leave, what should we do if you leave!" The patriarchs of the gentry clans were completely panicked.
"But my lord has already asked me, Zhang Zhao, to go somewhere!" Zhang Zhao looked at these gentry patriarchs with a look of helplessness.
"Master Zhang, you can't go, you are our backbone, you are the hope of our Jiangdong gentry." Some patriarchs gritted their teeth and became cruel, "Let's go and ask the lord not to let the lord drive away Master Zhang, you are ours." Minister of Jiangdong Humerus!"
"It's useless! My lord has already become cruel. Zhang Zhao said helplessly, Sun Ce has already led the horses for the envoys from Yangzhou now, why would he care about other things? Sun Ce would listen to these gentry.
"That's the way to do it! Could it be that we just wait here to die!" Someone had a look of panic on his face.
"Unless!" Zhang Zhao said suddenly.
"Unless?" Hearing that Zhang Zhao has made a turning point, all the patriarchs of the gentry here are overjoyed, but what does this mean.
"Unless we change the lord!" The old stubborn Zuo Li next to him thought much more.
Zhang Zhao couldn't help but look at Zuo Li more. Originally, this Zuo Li was really not seen by our Lord Zhang Changshi. After all, our Lord Zhang Changshi was the superior of our Zuo Taishou. He used to think that Zuo Li was The old fool is an old stubborn, now it seems that this old fool is smart, he is very wise and foolish on purpose.
"Change the lord?!" As soon as he said this, the group of nobles around him were all stunned. This is a big treason. What is a change of lord? It would be good if Sun Ce heard it. It's totally a rebellion.
So all of them shrank their necks subconsciously and looked out the window.
"Don't worry, this is my Zhang's mansion, I won't have ears through the walls." Zhang Zhao dispelled these individual concerns.
Changing the lord, this still surprised them, the gentry patriarchs, but the surprise was astonishing, and the gang of people began to calculate, don't expect these people to be good people, they are all a bunch of cannibals. Bone-spitting, loyal? Hehe, for them, being loyal is also loyal to their own family. As for others, hehe, if the lord brings them benefits, then they will be loyal, but if the lord can't bring them enough benefits, then bye bye you.
Therefore, changing the dynasty time and time again in history is not because the enemy is too strong, but because you have a bunch of traitors by your side.
"This change of lord, who is it to change? Could it be that Liu Mang, the king of Shu, took over Jiangdong?" Some people wondered, this change of lord and allowing Liu Mang to enter Jiangdong is considered a change of lord.
"Master Zhang, what do you think of the Second Young Master?" Zuo Li looked at Zhang Zhao and asked with a smile! (to be continued..)
