In order to prevent the recurrence of Assassins, Zhang He took the initiative to strengthen the defense of the camp, and at several entrances, additional personnel were on duty, carefully checking everyone who entered and exited.

After arranging all this, Zhang He returned to his tent and said to Han Zhan and Xun Chen, who were still here: "Childe, Zhang has strengthened the defense of the camp. However, for the sake of safety, before returning to Jizhou, I hope that the two of you can stay in Zhang's account to ensure your safety. ”

"What General Jun Yi said is very true." Zhang He said this because it was his duty to protect the safety of Han Zhan and Xun Chen, and if something happened to the two, he would have to commit suicide to apologize. When Xun Chen heard him say this, he immediately nodded desperately, and said along the water: "Since this is the case, then Zhan'er and I will be bothering General Jun Yi for the past few days." ”

"Where are there so many assassins?" But Han Zhan said disappreciatively: "I estimate that there are only these three assassins, and before we return to Jizhou, there should be no new assassins, so you still don't have to worry about it." ”

"Childe, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens," Zhang He couldn't help but be a little anxious when he saw that Han Zhan didn't take his safety to heart: "I think it's better to be careful, I have wronged you and Mr. Xun to live here temporarily in the past few days......"

"Alright, General Junyi, there is no need to say any more." Han Zhan interrupted Zhang He's words, turned his head to look at Xun Chen and said, "Uncle has been staying here for the past few days, I have Zilong's protection, and there will definitely be no more problems." ”

"Yes, yes, that hundred generals are very good at martial arts, and the three assassins were killed by him today. Let him protect you, and you will not encounter any more danger. Xun Chen thought of Zhao Yun's majesty during the day, and immediately agreed to Han Zhan's proposal: "And uncle, I, I will stay here for the past two days." ”

Zhang He originally wanted to persuade again, but seeing that Han Zhan had made up his mind, and thinking of Zhao Yun's strong martial arts, it must not be a big problem to deal with a few assassins, so he nodded and said, "Since Gongzi plans to go to Zhao Yun, Zhang is not reluctant." Anyway, the tents are not far apart, and if there is anything, as long as you say hello, Zhang will rush over immediately. ”

Han Zhan nodded, and was about to get up when a chief suddenly opened the curtain and walked in. He came to Zhang He and bowed and saluted: "Qiqi Jun Sima, there is Mr. Feng Ji, the long history of Yuan Che riding outside, asking to see him." ”

Hearing that Feng Ji was visiting, Zhang He didn't dare to make decisions casually, but turned his head to look at Han Zhan and waited for him to make a decision. Han Zhan nodded and said, "Since it's Mr. Feng Yuantu who is here, why don't you invite him in!" ”

Feng Ji entered the tent, saw Han Zhan and Xun Chen, and immediately gave a deep salute, and said politely: "See Childe, see Mr. Xun, Ji is polite." ”

"Mr. Yuantu, hurry up and excuse me." Xun Chen got up and greeted him, grabbed in front of Han Zhan and said, "I don't know if Mr. is visiting, Chen has never come to greet him, and I ask for forgiveness." ”

Hearing that the two of them were also talking non-stop, Han Zhan's heart became a little impatient, but it was not easy to show it, so he had to look at the two with a forced smile. After the two of them finally finished greeting and sat down, he asked, "Mr. Yuantu, I don't know if you came to visit late at night, do you have any advice?" ”

"Master Han, Mr. Xun." Feng Ji arched his hand at the two and said, "My lord knows that the two of them were almost assassinated during the day, and he is uneasy. In order to prevent any more troubles, I will let Ji lead 500 troops and horses to protect your safety. ”

"Thank you Yuan Cheqi for your kindness," Han Zhan and Feng Ji immediately got up and thanked after finishing speaking: "With these five hundred soldiers and horses, we can sit back and relax." ”

After a short silence, Feng Ji said a little embarrassedly: "Childe, Ji has a few words, I don't know if I should say it or not?" ”

Han Zhan guessed that the other party would definitely defend Yuan Shao, so he stretched out his hand, "Mr. Yuantu, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"My father-in-law was shocked to learn of the assassination of Gongzi and Mr. Xun. I am afraid that Chun Yu Zhongjian and Gongzi have a misunderstanding, and they did not diverge for a while, so they made this foolish thing. Feng Ji put on a sad look and said: "I specially sent a fast horse to return to the camp to understand the matter." When General Zhong Jian learned of this, he was at a loss, and he assured the envoy of the lord that this matter had absolutely nothing to do with him. ”

Speaking of this, Feng Ji deliberately paused for a moment, observed Han Zhan's expression, and saw that the other party's expression was as usual, so he continued: "If Gongzi has any doubts, my father-in-law can ask Zhong Jian Xingye to come here and accept the interrogation of Gongzi and Mr. Xun. ”

When Han Zhan heard this, he understood in his heart that Yuan Shao's purpose for asking Feng Ji to say this was to defend himself, and to test himself. So he smiled faintly and said: "Mr. Yuantu's words are wrong, Yuan Che rode the Yishi Gongding, the high wind righteous track, and the crown of the sea, he was a hero at that time, how could he have unscrupulous subordinates." Han believed that today's assassin matter had nothing to do with Yuan Cheqi. ”

Seeing that Han Zhan behaved so reasonably, Feng Ji's face also had a smile: "I didn't expect that the son would have such a high evaluation of my father-in-law, I don't know if I would be willing to belong to my father-in-law in the future." ”

Hearing Feng Ji persuade him to become Yuan Shao's subordinate, Han Zhan couldn't help sneering in his heart, saying that Yuan Shao was just a short-lived figure in the upcoming troubled times of the Three Kingdoms, and he had no future if he defected to him, and even the Zhang He beside him abandoned Yuan Shao and defected to Cao Cao during the Battle of Guandu. Wouldn't he, a person who knows the course of history, choose a monarch with a promising future to defect?

However, in order not to offend Yuan Shao, he couldn't refuse too obviously, but said with a haha: "Mr. Yuantu said that he was joking." When Yuan Che rode into Jizhou, the civil and military officials of Jizhou and the people of Li will worship him as the lord of Jizhou. As a member of Jizhou, Han is naturally no exception. ”

Feng Ji saw that Han Zhan's words were clear, and he neither said that he wanted to defect to Yuan Shao, nor did he say that he would not defect, he didn't want to be too pressing, but changed the topic and asked, "Master Han, I don't know if you have any suspicions?" ”

"Gongsun Chan!" As soon as Feng Ji's words fell, Han Zhan said without hesitation: "Gongsun Zhan has always been eyeing my Jizhou, and now he Chen Bing is in the north of Jizhou, ready to wave his army to the south at any time. Now that my father may have given up the Jizhou seal ribbon to Yuan Cheqi, he sent assassins to stop the cooperation between the two of us. ”

Instigating Gongsun Zan to attack Jizhou, so that Han Fu was desperate, and dedicated Jizhou to Yuan Shao, it was originally a ploy of Feng Ji. Now that he heard Han Zhan's conclusive words that the assassin might have been sent by Gongsun Zhan, he couldn't help but have doubts in his heart. And the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was relatively large. From the analysis of various signs, if Han Zhan dies, the biggest beneficiary is Gongsun Zhan. As long as Han Fu's son is killed in the camp of the Yuan army, Yuan Shao will be speechless, and it will become unknown whether he can successfully enter Jizhou at that time. Although Han Fu had handed over the seal, he would never tolerate a person who killed his son and became the lord of Jizhou.

Thinking of this, Feng Ji couldn't sit still. In order to report the news to Yuan Shao as soon as possible, after he and Han Zhan continued to chat for a few words, he got up and arched his hand to everyone, saying, "Ji has already brought the words of my lord, so I won't bother you, and I will leave!" ”
