Final Chapter. 290. The difficulties of family business

As early as when Chen Ziling led a large army to besiege Hedong City, due to a Chu Mo order issued by Shen Gui, a group of Jianghu people rushed to help in the camp of Northern Yan. Among them, there is an old man, named Jia Laoliu, who is a habitual thief; Then there came another Ludong man, named Zhang Dianchen, who was a horse thief who gathered in the mountains and forests.

These two Jianghu people, one civil, one martial, one old and one young, worked together to annihilate the vanguard battalion of the Qin army in one fell swoop. After this hearty victory, the fourth prince Zhou Chang'an wrote to the imperial court to express his merits and rewards for Zhang Dianchen and others; And Zhang Dianchen's special background was also favored by the two prime ministers and Emperor Tianyou, who wanted to make it into a banner of recruitment, so as to attract more reckless heroes to abandon the darkness and help the court resist foreign enemies.

However, just when His Majesty's reward had not yet arrived at the front line of Hedong City, this pair of year-old friends who hated each other completely evaporated from the world!

On that day, Jiang Xiaolou held a three-foot Qingmang sword in his hand and defeated the glory of martial arts people under Hedong City, which attracted everyone's attention. And under Lu Ruiniang's "red dust" sword, Zhang Dianchen, an old horse who escaped with a life, lost more than 40 old brothers who had followed him for most of his life, and since then he has become a "singles village owner".

Zhang Dianchen, who was originally an orthodox literati, yearns for fame and fortune more than anyone else; Originally, taking this opportunity, he was also ready to take advantage of the situation to wash off his stinky bottom, and from then on he would worship the marquis and glorify his ancestors! But at the beginning, forty-eight of them left Ludong, and in the blink of an eye, he was left with a single seedling to live in the world; This extremely cruel battlefield between the two armies also instantly woke up his sweet dream!

Xiangma bandits, who do road cutting and robbing money and extorting tickets on weekdays; Although they also dance knives and guns, kill people and set fires every day, they are still "folk fights" in essence! But when he actually set foot on the battlefield of the two armies, he had just won a great victory, and in an instant all forty-seven brothers were killed. Zhang Dianchen suddenly woke up to the fact that he was not a general at all!

There has never been a bowl of rice for fools on the rivers and lakes, although these people are usually full of righteousness and ancestral rules; But glue hair to them, and each one is better than a monkey! This is the experience and experience exercised in the warm and cold river road of human affection and the hot and cold world, and it is also the survival wisdom forced out of the cruel real society.

The laws of nature pay attention to the survival of the fittest, and the same is true of the rivers and lakes.

So, Zhang Dianchen, who had suddenly woken up, took advantage of Jiang Xiaolou's dazzling light under Hedong City, and that night, he found a moment where no one paid attention and slipped out of Hedong City......

Sou!

Before Zhang Dianchen had run ten miles, he was frightened by an arrow in the woods! Hedong City is located in the hinterland of the Sanjin Dynasty, and there are also bandits and bandits who have lived in the local area for a long time; And Ludong Zhang Dianchen stepped on the boundary this time, but forgot to "burn incense" in advance; Now when you encounter people in the same way, it will inevitably take a lot of time......

Zhang Dianchen is an expert among the insiders, and he knows how dangerous his situation is at the moment. As long as there is an action or a word, which arouses the dissatisfaction or suspicion of the other party, it will immediately attract a rain of arrows, and he will not even have a chance to defend himself.

The old rivers and lakes that have seen the world are like this, and the Purple Gold Hall of the Heavenly King Pavilion dares to go back and forth a few times with his chest up; In order to survive, the dog will drill in and out of the hole, and there will be no psychological burden!

After the sound of arrows in his ears, he stood on his legs instantly, crossed his arms in front of his chest, and gave two thumbs in each hand, and shouted into the depths of the dense forest with great humility and sincerity:

"Hard work, everyone, they are all brothers of the old family, and they have prevented the three old and four young people from staying guests, and they all blame the brothers for extinguishing a pair of tricks! Which one is the scoop handle on the counter, come out to the right plate! (They are all from the rivers and lakes, and they all blame me for having no eyes and no beads for hindering you from cutting off the road and robbing money.) Which one is in charge, come out and talk a few words. )”

"Hey, I left a bright family! Since the door is clear, let's report it, right? (It turned out that he robbed an insider.) Since you know the rules, then give your last name)"

"Heel vine! (surname Zhang)"

"Stomping on the tile kiln or swimming and eating team? (Are there bandits who have fixed cottages and fallen grass, or are they rogues who eat from all directions?) )”

"Hey, there was originally a kiln for twisting upside down, but the words side by side are all dirty...... (Originally, there was a cottage on the east side, but the brothers were all dead.) ”

"Hmm...... Then this dark line can't be hung in vain, so let's drink a bowl of water. (Then we can't go out for nothing, let's leave some money to buy money). ”

"You ...... Hey, it's easy to say, since the ligature is bright, leaving a portion of the section, it's not too far away. (Now that we've met, it's not too much to leave a piece of money to buy the road.) )”

After three sentences, there was a burst of laughter from the depths of the forest; An old voice also came into Zhang Dianchen's ears:

"Zhang Dianchen, Zhang Dianchen, you are really stinky and shameless!"

Zhang Dianchen looked stunned when he heard this, his old face turned red, and he stopped talking.

Because according to the rules of the rivers and lakes, if it is an incision between like-minded people, ask each other questions twice, and if there is no mistake or omission in the return, it will be considered the end of the question. That sound of an arrow as a "greeting gift" does not count; But they asked the surname and the kiln, and Zhang Dianchen also answered without leaking.

So no matter what the third sentence asks, it means that he looks down on this fellow Jianghu and slaps the other party's ancestor in the face. not only swept away the face of others, but also the beams on both sides died.

And this group of people not only asked three questions, but the content was blackmail and blackmail, and the severity was enough to cause death. But Zhang Dianchen still happily agreed to it in order to make a living, which is indeed a bit of a "shameless" meaning.

As soon as the ridiculed words fell, the dirty Jia Lao Liu came out of the woods with a group of cows, ghosts, snakes and gods; The big guy pointed at Zhang Dianchen and canceled it repeatedly, while desperately scratching the mosquito bag on his body......

Gotta catch a thief, don't say anyone! Everyone is fleeing from the battle, and no one is nobler than the other!

Three days later, a grain convoy in Chang'an City was sacked by a group of horse bandits on the way. According to Lord Wang, the grain supervisor who led the team to respond, the group of bold horse bandits had different accents, different postures, and face towels on their faces, so they couldn't figure out where they were coming.

And each of them was wearing ordinary coarse linen clothes, and their skills were also very ordinary, noisy, and messy, which was by no means dressed by the regular army of Beiyan. It's just that he is the first person in charge, holding a ghost-headed broadsword is very eye-catching, very much like Zhang Dianchen, the famous general of Beiyan in the previous war!

In fact, if this matter were reported by another person, Chen Ziling would definitely be convinced, and would seriously think about the reasons behind it because of the tactical intentions. After all, Zhang Dianchen of Beiyan, who had just shone brightly, had indeed not shown up for a long time, and it was very likely that he would adopt the method of sneak attack after the rear, intending to attack the Qin army's grain route.

But first, the Lord Wang, who was in charge of escorting grain and grass, was a relative of the queen's mother's family; Second, the implication of this person's words is to detain this matter on Zhang Dianchen's head. But apart from the food and supplies they were missing, the lives of the chariots, horses, and people were unharmed; If this is really Zhang Dianchen's doing, logically speaking, it doesn't make sense at all!

Therefore, according to Chen Ziling's inference, this must be the grain supervisor relying on the identity of the queen's relatives to sell the batch of military grain, and then blame the Beiyan people, and engage in a trick with no proof of death.

In fact, no matter whether he loses grain or fattens himself, this grain supervisor surnamed Wang will inevitably die. Because according to the law in the army, Chen Ziling, as the commander of the Qin army, can cut down and then play all matters related to grain and grass without real evidence, so as to set an example for future generations.

But Chen Ziling is not only the commander of the Qin army, but also the chief of the guard of the Qin Palace, and the son of the Zhou family! Today's Queen and Mrs. Wang are his old mothers and godmothers, who have treated him very affectionately and as her own since she was a child.

Now that I have made every inch, for the sake of this batch of grain and grass, I first cut down the mother's mother's family?

There is no way, this obvious "ink corruption case", he can only handle it as a "bandit attack and disturbance of the grain road", anyway, the Qin army was not in a hurry to lack food and grass at that time.

Of course, silverfish are out in the army, and we can't turn a blind eye. Fortunately, in the siege battle, those heavily armored black horsemen were useless, so they simply asked the uncle Wang Zhengling to take his brothers to clear the non-existent "grain road bandits". When he can't find the horse bandits, he can remember to check what his minions have done.

There is nothing wrong with Chen Ziling's approach, since it is the Wang family's business, let them solve it themselves behind closed doors. Although he Chen Ziling is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, after all, he is also from a foreign surname, so it is really inconvenient to get involved in the emperor's family affairs. And the uncle of the country, Wang Zhengling, is not an incompetent and mediocre person; Such a big grain of sand, if he could rub it into his eyes, Chen Ziling would save that leisure......

When he was summoned by Chen Ziling, Wang Zhengling had just received the news that the grain and grass had been robbed. Uncle Guo's first reaction also coincided with Chen Ziling's private speculation. Wang Zhengling is a talented man with big ambitions, and he is also very tired of these petty relatives in his heart; But now that these people have made a mess, it's not good to let Chen Ziling, the number one cadre, worry about these trivial things!

So, Wang Zhengling broke his limbs and feet in public with his cousin, who was more wronged than Dou E; Then he dragged him in front of Chen Ziling like a dead dog. After repeatedly asking three times in a frightened manner, Wang Zhengling didn't even leave a chance for the other party to confess, and chopped off his head with a knife in his hand, giving Chen Ziling an explanation!

It stands to reason that if things have been done to this extent, they have already been explained. However, Wang Zhengling believes that it is a major matter related to military rations, and there is no room for half a mistake; and lately his brethren of black riders have been of no use; Therefore, he asked Chen Ziling for a handsome order in public, and personally led 8,000 iron cavalry to launch a carpet search to completely clear the rear grain road to ensure the supply of the army in front.

How did you know that the farewell of that day was the last meeting between Wang Zhengling and Chen Ziling......
