"How did this Yang Kui get to my mansion?" Zhang Zhao asked the butler next to him in the study.
"Reporting to the Patriarch, I don't know very well. According to the concierge, this person came directly to the door with a young servant. After the disaster, he will see the lord. The concierge originally wanted to drive them away, but he didn't expect that Yang Kui would be with him. This young servant is highly skilled in martial arts, and this guard is not his opponent, so this little one knew about it, and later on he was the one who spoke out loud." The butler reported cautiously to his Patriarch.
"Who is this person?" Zhang Zhao frowned. This Yang Kui was not brazen. If Zhang Zhao really drove this person out, he might really be in trouble. He could even guess their relationship in the mansion. Conspiracy, this person is very scary, Zhang Zhao should have never seen someone with such ability in Jiangdong.
Because Zhang Zhao is not only the head of the gentry in Jiangdong, he is also a great Confucian. It can be said that many scholars and talents in Jiangdong who want to enter the official career or want to get ahead will send famous cards to Zhang Zhao for advice. After a while, but this person seemed to appear suddenly. If this person was not a talented person, but a mediocre person, Zhang Zhao would not know how to manage money, but this person's talent really shocked Zhang Zhao.
"The head of the family may not be from Jiangdong!" The housekeeper next to him added.
"Impossible!" Zhang Zhao shook his head directly. Although this person's voice is hoarse, Zhang Zhao can still hear it, that is, this person still has a Jiangdong accent. If he hadn't lived in Jiangdong for several years or even decades It is impossible for a person to have such an accent. Just like Zhugejin and Bushi and others, Zhugejin's Jingzhou dialect and Yangzhou dialect, which is easy to walk, cannot be changed in a short period of time.
Who is this person? Zhang Zhao has thought about it for a long time. He has thought about all the talented or amazing people in Jiangdong, but none of them are like this, and these individuals are either indifferent and don't care about fame and fortune, or they are already in the world. Sun Ce's subordinates have served, could it be him? Zhang Zhao suddenly thought of someone.
"No, didn't this person leave Jingzhou?" Zhang Zhao frowned. "Go, send someone to follow me. Yang Kui, master and servant, must tell me everything they do!"
"Yes!" The butler nodded and left.
"If you were him, what are your plans?" Zhang Zhao muttered to himself.
The night was getting darker, and the sky was getting brighter. A group of Patriarchs in Zhang Zhao's mansion woke up very early. They were not busy, but they really couldn't sleep. Could they sleep comfortably? If tomorrow's matter is achieved, everyone will be happy, but if it fails, then just wait for the whole family to die together.
"Morning, Mr. Zhang!" Yang Kui, the black-robed man, was the first to greet Zhang Zhaooh.
"Morning, Mr. Yang Kui!" Zhang Zhao saw that Yang Kui was in good spirits, while everyone else was depressed. It seemed that only Yang Kui had a good night's sleep.
"Everyone, today is the time to decide whether we are alive or dead! Even if you want to quit, it's too late! We have to fight to the end!" Zhang Zhao said to the group of Patriarchs below.
"It's natural. We all look forward to Zhang Gong." Zuo Li next to him spoke up. As soon as Zuo Li spoke, the several patriarchs immediately agreed with one voice and insisted on listening to Zhang Gong. Indeed, they had no turning back. He Ruiyi died. , they have completely broken with Sun Ce and Zhou Yu.
"Okay! Now is the time for us to act, Patriarch Hao Liu Hao!" Zhang Zhao began to give orders.
"What orders does Mr. Zhang have?" Hao Liu cupped his fists at Zhang Zhao.
"Patriarch Hao, how are you preparing for the elite of the Three Thousand Mountains?" Zhang Zhao asked Hao Liu who was beside him.
"Don't worry, Mr. Zhang is on standby at any time!" Hao Liu said to Zhang Zhao, and the five thousand pairs of heavy armor given by Zhang Zhao were ready.
"Okay, brother Hao, please go back immediately and let Sanqianshan Yue's elite come out of the mountain, and enter the city from Jianye to meet us." Zhang Zhao said.
"Take orders!" Hao Liu nodded.
"Brother Zuo Li!" Zhang Zhao asked Zuo Li beside him.
"What orders does Mr. Zhang have!"
"Please also invite Zhang Gong to go to Zhou Yu's mansion with Mr. Yang Kui, and invite our great governor!" Zhang Zhao thought for a long time, but decided not to go, because Zhang Zhao still has important things to do. Do it, that is to welcome the second son.
"This, this!" Zuo Li hesitated a little.
"What's the matter, Brother Zuo, is there any difficulty?" Zhang Zhao asked.
"Mr. Zhang, I'm old. It's easy to enter the governor's mansion, but it's difficult to get out." Zuo Li said in a dilemma. This is obviously to go in and use weapons. Zuo Li is such an old bone, and he is really afraid that he won't be able to get out after he goes in.
Zhang Zhao obviously frowned. Going to Zhou Yu's mansion here is a very important part. No one is in charge, so Zhang Zhao is afraid of accidents.
"Let's replace this old man with his own son!" Zuo Li continued.
"Master Ling?" Zhang Zhao murmured, as if hesitating.
"Why, Mr. Zhang doesn't believe Yang?" the man in black said.
"Sir, you misunderstood!" Zhang Zhao made it clear that he was worried about Yang Kui, the man in black.
"Mr. Zhang, I'm just a white man. Even in the eyes of Marquis Wu, he's only a county magistrate at most. But with Mr. Zhang, if you succeed with the second son, you can't escape the position of eunuch at least!" The man in black showed a love for the official position, which reassured Zhang Zhao a lot.
This black-robed man is not lewd, none of the maidservants sent by Zhang Zhao last night was touched by him, and he is not good for money. Later, Zhang Zhao also sent a hundred gold, and even some land title deeds, But this person didn't accept any of them. Now it seems that this person is an official fan. Zhang Zhao is not afraid of people having sex, he is afraid that you are not. Unless a person is that kind of detached from the world, it is impossible for this kind of person to enter the world, and there is another kind that this person wants to be grand.
Now it seems that this Yang Kui is a good official position, and this is easy to handle. "Haha, please rest assured, sir. Once the matter is completed, I will definitely tell Second Young Master that the prefect of Jianye City will keep it for you."
"Thank you so much Mr. Zhang! Hahahahaha!" Yang Kui deliberately showed a look of ecstasy.
"Okay, Governor Zuo, let Young Master Ling go with Mr. Yang Kui to the mansion of the Great Governor, and you must make the Great Governor set things right!" Zhang Zhao said in a flash, rebellion had already turned into putting things right in his mouth. up.
"We must live up to Mr. Zhang's entrustment!" The two said with their fists clasped together.
"Patriarch Cheng, your task is to use the five thousand soldiers left by General Yan Baihu to guard Kuaiji. The generation is ready to meet us at any time. This is an opportunity to expand the army, and everything will be easy to handle with money and food!" Zhang Zhao had to make two plans. That is to use Zhou Yu to force Sun Ce to submit, and another is that if Sun Ce does not buy it, then Zhang Zhao will not be able to fight back completely by relying on Kuaiji to expand his army.
"Yes!" The soldiers of the three routes set off immediately.
…
"I said, Mr. Yang Kui, how can we dress up like this? How can we enter Zhou Yu's mansion? If you want me to say that you can just put on a strong outfit and go in. Anyway, we have the token in our hands, so we can't go in and out of Zhou Yu's mansion freely this week." Among a group of people dressed as farmer's servants, a young man was complaining. This man was Zuo Jie, the son of Zuo Li Zuo Taishou.
"Idiot!" Yang Chen scolded this person secretly in his heart, they really couldn't enter Zhou Yu's mansion wearing strong attire, if nothing else, just say where you put your sword, once you get to the door, you might be caught. was stopped.
Although he was dissatisfied with the idiot son of Zuo Li Zuo Taishou, the black-robed man patiently explained, "Young Master Zuo, this token belongs to He Rui, not ours. But now that He Rui is dead, we can't just go in like this! Please be patient, Mr. Zuo, it will be fine."
"Hmph, do it, I don't have much time!" Zuo Jie said angrily.
"You!" Yang Chen was about to get rough on this young master Zuo, but was stopped by Lu Su. He shook his head, smiled and didn't say anything. He couldn't help but look at the familiar mansion over there. "Gongjin, you didn't expect me to come again after I didn't leave! This time we have to see who wins and who loses! Come, let's go!" Lu Su said to the people under his hand.
"What are you doing!" Sure enough, all the people were stopped before they entered Zhou Yu's mansion, and a few guards with knives over there stopped their bikes with one big hand.
"Master, we are sending some fresh melons and fruits to the Governor's Mansion!" Yang Chen led the way. He was dressed in the best clothes here, looking like a housekeeper.
"Send melons and fruits?" The guard with the knife saw that there were indeed many fresh vegetables on the frame, but he still wouldn't let them go easily. Their mission was to protect the governor Zhou Yu and let him recover from his injuries. .
"Give me melons and fruits? Why don't I know you?" The leader of the guard with a knife is still very witty. "Then Yuan San won't give it away?"
"Master Yuan? Oh, you mean that..." Yang Chen was about to follow the words of the guard with a knife, but was kicked by Lu Su behind him. Yang Chen saw the guard over there Having already put his hand on the hilt of the saber, Yang Chen's words changed immediately, "What is Mr. Yuan, we don't know each other!"
"Oh?" The head of the guard with the saber turned his eyes, and the men behind him also put down the hand that was on the saber, which made Yang Chen heave a sigh of relief.
What is the third child of the Yuan family, this is the guard with the knife who lied to them. If Yang Chen really followed, then what is left for Yang Chen and others is to fight.
But even so, the leader of the guard with a knife didn't let them in. "Are these fruits fresh?" The guard with a knife took a melon and fruit and asked.
"Fresh, fresh are just picked, specially sent for the governor." Yang Chen said hastily.
"Really?" The leader of the guard with the knife saw that there was dew on the melon and fruit, and he did just pick it off, but this person still didn't buy it. "Why do I feel that these are not fresh? Could it be that you used those heavy The goods come to deceive our chief governor!"
"How could this happen, the villain wouldn't dare!"
"Why don't you dare, I think this means that there are some fresh melons and fruits on the top and heavy goods on the bottom, come on, open it for me to have a look!" The leader of the guard with a knife shouted loudly.
"Yes!" A few guards over there are about to come up immediately, this is the expression of wanting to turn over these frames.
They can't turn over this frame, it's full of swords inside, once it's searched, it's a big deal, and they can confess to the outside of the Zhou Mansion without entering.
"You!" Mr. Zuo Jie, who was next to him, was about to yell to fight them, but he was stopped by the man in black. If we, Mr. Zuo, were to come forward, we would be ruined immediately.
"I'll see who would dare!" Yang Chen immediately changed his face. Just now, he was very affectionate towards these guards with knives, and it could even be said to be sleazy, but now he seems to be a different person.
"What? Guilty? Or do you want to resist?" The guards with knives were not afraid at all, and the men over there immediately drew out their sabers. The cold light shone on the sabers, making people shudder. The sword is added to the body.
"Resist huh? Do you need to resist? You search, you search! Let me tell you that these melons and fruits were given to the governor by our patriarch to try them out. You search hard. If these melons and fruits are damaged, the governor I ate some bad or rotten ones, hehe, let me see how you explain it!" Yang Chen said, "You come to search.
"Search, just search!" A young guard with a knife over there did not believe in evil and wanted to come forward to search, but was stopped by his own leader.
"The leader?"
"Don't worry!" The leader of the guard with a knife narrowed his eyes. If Yang Chen was determined not to let him search, then he would definitely search, because he is the one who protects Zhou's mansion and has the duty of investigating, so he is not afraid of making trouble, but This Yang Chen's casual look made the leader of the guards with swords hesitate, he didn't want to offend people unintentionally, after all, he was just a small general, not even qualified to lead troops, It would be bad if you accidentally provoke someone you shouldn't, "Whose servant are you?"
"Hehe, you don't care who's servant I am. You search it quickly. After the search is over, I'll go back and report to our Patriarch He Rui, and tell him that someone suspects us. Patriarch, you are sincere to the governor, but you are caught by some caring people." It was destroyed, and our melons and fruits were ruined. This is to make you, the owner, feel ashamed in front of the governor, and wants our He family to be blamed and punished by the governor. This is the way to kill our He family." On the surface, Yang Chen didn't say who he was the representative of, but between the lines, who didn't say that he was from the He family
"The He family?" The pupils of the guard with the knife dilated. One of the noble families in Jiangdong that cannot be offended has the He family, not because of how powerful the He family is, but because of this person and The governor can walk in, so it can be said that he is a confidant of the governor. Even if the governor is a good person and would not blame him for such a thing, he can't stand the revenge of He Rui.
"Are you really from the He family?" The commander of the guards with the sword hesitated. "What proof do you have?"
"Hehe, there is no evidence, just click on the search. After the search, we have to send it in, and we have to go back to report!" Yang Chen said impatiently, and the black-robed man next to him suddenly leaned into Yang Chen's ear, as if saying these things What, but Yang Chen slapped the black-robed man directly, and said angrily, "What token!"
"The butler, that, the token given by the Patriarch!" the man in black said fearfully.
"The token given by the Patriarch is for cats and dogs?" Yang Chen said angrily.
"You!" The guard with the knife over there became angry, what is a cat or a dog.
"No, no, steward, I mean your token fell off." The black-robed man carefully pointed to the ground while speaking.
Only then did everyone cast their eyes on the ground. Sure enough, a gold plaque fell on the ground and the word "He" on it was shining brightly.
"Oh, damn it, I lost the Patriarch's token!" Yang Chen slapped the man in black while cursing, "Why didn't you say it earlier, damn it, you lowly slave," he said. He kicked the man in black. The man in black was not moved at all, and was still trembling.
"So it's Brother He, Brother He!" The leader of the guard with the knife also saw the token clearly, it is indeed true, the words on it can't be faked, this token is still the Patriarch of the He Family and the Patriarch of the Zhou Family together It was built and given to He Rui by Zhou Yu.
"Stop searching?" Yang Chen still squinted at people.
"Hehe, we are all a family, what are you looking for!" the leader of the guard with a knife said, licking his smiling face.
"Let's go!" Yang Chen said as he was about to lead everyone in.
"Slow!" However, he was stopped by the guards who took him to him, which shocked Yang Chen, thinking that this person really saw something.
"Brother He, this is the main entrance. You have to turn around a lot of places when you go in. The side entrance is there. If you go there, you can go straight to the kitchen!" The guard with the knife said to Yang Chen, "Ah, let me let a The guards will take you there! It will be more convenient."
"Don't you want to protect the Zhou Mansion?" Yang Chen seemed to be thinking of you.
"Isn't this afraid that brother He will get lost? Don't be in a hurry here, don't be in a hurry."
"Thank you so much!" Yang Chen nodded, why not do it if someone leads the way. "Don't worry, if I have a chance, I will definitely say a few good words to you in front of our Patriarch. In this way, if you are not careful, the governor will know you!" Yang Chen wrote a bad check.
"Haha, thank you, thank you, Brother He!" The commander of the guards with swords was in a mess. Who doesn't want to lead troops to fight, but he wants to be guarded by others. If Zhou Yu can pay attention, he can naturally fall into the army up.
"Let's go!" Under the escort of Yang Chen and others, the carts of weapons headed towards the back door of the Zhou Mansion under the leadership of the guards with swords in the nearby Zhou Mansion. r1152
