This Chun Yuqiong walked in the mountains for more than half a month before daring to go out of the mountains.

When I came out to inquire, it turned out that Zhang Ming didn't hunt them down after killing them, so he stopped.

Chun Yuqiong knew that if he went back like this, even if Yuan Shao had the heart to let him go, he would inevitably be severely punished.

Yuan Shao must also give an explanation to everyone.

So he didn't dare to identify himself all the way, but inquired secretly.

And so, a month had passed before he returned.

After spending so much time in the mountains, he suffered an unknown amount of suffering.

"Lord, my subordinates fled back after nine hundred and eighty-one difficulties, and they fled back to tell the lord a fact, otherwise the lord may have been blinded."

The word ninety-nine-eighty-one was coined by Zhang Ming when he published Journey to the West in the newspaper.

Chun Yuqiong knelt on the ground and cried, very miserable.

After crying for a while, he said again: "My lord, we will suffer such a big defeat, it is completely because someone leaked secrets, and the most suspicious one is Gao Ran. ”

A high view?

Yuan Shao also thought about it, but felt that the possibility was relatively small.

At this time, Gao Ran was captured by Zhang Ming, and there was no way to investigate.

Yuan Shao was shocked and said: "Carefully speaking, if there is a fake, it will be punished together." ”

Chun Yuqiong casually wiped her tears and said, "Lord, your subordinates are loyal to you. ”

"It is said that Gao Ran and Zhu Ling's army was ambushed by Zhang Ming, and Zhu Ling was killed soon after, and none of Gao Ran's army escaped."

"This is the first suspicion, the second suspicion is that our army has not received Gao Ran's warning, even if Gao Ran loses, he has 50,000 people, it is impossible that none of them can escape, and more importantly, the scouts can also come out of the alarm."

"The third suspicion is that I have been sending scouts to other armies to learn about each other's situation during the march, and the other two armies have reported back, only Gao Lan's army has not heard from each other."

"And the fourth and most important thing, when our army was surrounded by Zhang Ming, his subordinates led his subordinates to fight hard, but they saw Gao Ran and Zhang Ming together, and there were talking and laughing."

"Lord, do you think, Gao Ran had a good relationship with Zhang Ming before, and he spoke for him several times."

Indeed, when they fought Cao Cao together before, Yuan Shao's side sent Gao Ran to connect with Zhang Ming.

Zhang Ming helped them a lot when he was fighting Cao Cao, and this Gao Ran also spoke for Zhang Ming.

In this way, everything seems to make sense.

Yuan Shao didn't make a decision immediately, but said: "You go back and wash up well, change into clean clothes, and at night, I will call the others to discuss it." ”

Chun Yuqiong was immediately grateful to Dade for going back.

After coming out, Chun Yuqiong breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew that 20,000 troops had been lost, and that they had not been fought at all.

If Yuan Shao knew about this, he would definitely be severely punished at that time, and if someone else fell into the ground, he would not be so happy.

So, when she came back all the way, Chun Yuqiong kept thinking of a way.

Letting Gao Ran be the scapegoat is naturally the best way.

And Gao Ran does have many doubts.

Anyway, there is no way to confront each other now, so Chun Yuqiong dares to do so.

In the evening, Yuan Shao called all his staff, and then asked Chun Yuqiong to say it again.

"Guys, what do you want to say?"

Guo Tu came out and said with a skeptical attitude: "This Gao Lan is indeed okay." ”

Xin Ping also said: "Gao Ran is suspicious, and what General Chun Yu said can also make sense, but there is no actual evidence." ”

Most of the rest said the same.

No one defended Gao Ran, and of course, no one was sure that Gao Ran did it.

It's not that Gao Ran's popularity is bad and his reputation is bad.

It's that these people don't dare to intercede with Gao Ran.

Quite simply, the leak is for sure.

If you intercede for Gao Ran, you will be suspicious.

Yuan Shao has always suspected that someone must have leaked secrets among their core personnel.

Nowadays, it is not easy to find a person who is responsible, and that is not the best outcome.

There was no objection from all.

Yuan Shao nodded, this matter needs to be judged by him personally.

"Okay, then I will put Gao Ran's wife and children, no, the whole family to prison."

"No."

After Yuan Shao finished speaking, this frustrated professor stood up and said, "Lord, don't go to prison." ”

Yuan Shao was annoyed and frustrated.

"Do you think this Gao Lan is innocent?" Yuan Shao questioned.

Frustrated with a fist salute and said, "Don't dare, this Gao Lan is indeed the most suspicious, but he can't just put his whole family in prison." ”

"We don't have any evidence at all, and it's really hard to convince people based on inferences, which will chill many people."

Frustrated, he knew that saying this would definitely offend Yuan Shao and the others, but he still came out and said it.

"Hmph, Gao Ran is so suspicious, it's good that I didn't kill anyone."

Fu Zhu said again: "Lord, you can put Gao Lan's family under house arrest at home, they can't escape anyway, and they will be dealt with when the truth is found out." ”

Although Yuan Shao was unhappy in his heart, he still accepted it.

"Okay, then I'll imprison the Gao Ran family at home."

Yuan Shao imprisoned Gao Lan's family in his home, and his family consisted of more than a dozen people.

And Chun Yuqiong was also reinstated because of this.

He lost 20,000 troops, and Yuan Shao just rebuked him and made him guilty and meritorious service.

Chun Yuqiong finally escaped.

On the same day, Yuan Shao's actions were received by Zhang Ming's intelligence officers.

At the same time, the intelligence officers also began to investigate, and it took a day to investigate clearly, and it was Chun Yuqiong who testified against Gao Lan.

It is so easy to find out that Yuan Shao did not intend to block it, someone is responsible for the failure, and Yuan Shao needs to release the news.

After receiving the information, the intelligence officers used the system of delivering newspapers to speed up the transmission back to Youzhou.

Zhang Ming, who was in Youzhou, was busy with other things at this time.

A few people came to the wedding, and finally many important people came.

And the first to come was Chen Gong.

Chen Gong came on behalf of Lu Bu.

This Lu Bu was rectified by Zhang Ming, and his prestige plummeted, and he would actually let Chen Gong come.

Or maybe it's time for Chen Gong to come.

When Chen Gong arrived, Zhang Ming attached great importance to it and personally met Chen Gong.

"Haha, Gongtai, I didn't expect you to come, your name has long been like thunder, and now you can meet in person, it's a great event in life."

This Chen Gong is indeed talented, which is enough for Zhang Ming to pay attention to.

"The general of the protector is polite, my nickname, how can I compare with you."

"Come, we're all welcome, please come inside."

Zhang Ming invited Chen Gong into the state governor's mansion.

The two of them took their seats, and Zhang Ming instructed the soldiers around him and said: "Arrange the Gongtai and his party, find the best hotel, and go out of the Feizhou Pastoral Mansion." ”

Zhang Ming sent the rest of the people away.

In this way, there are only two of them left.

"Gongtai, how is Wen Hou doing lately? You come to me, aren't you afraid that Liu will not be able to suffer? ”

"If you dare to come, there is nothing to be afraid of."

Zhang Ming took a sip of tea, and then said, "Ming people don't say dark words, we can order directly." ”
