"Good, good. Brother Cao understands things. It's not that the brothers are ruthless and don't help Brother Cao, but now that they are in the limelight, one more wrong step, and everyone will end up in pieces. We are helpless to wait. ”

"It was Brother Cao who didn't know people well and chose an incompetent son-in-law, which is the result of today. Although the brothers can rest assured, after Brother Cao clarifies with the saint, he will resign and return to his hometown, live a comfortable life, and never appear in front of the world again. ”

"Since Brother Cao has made up his mind, then Brother Zhang will no longer keep you. Huh... Brother, the days are long, and you have to take care of your body. You elder brothers, there is nothing to give you, everyone pooled 50,000 taels of gold, and it should be used to fund the needs of his brother's future life. Brother Zhang has sent the gold to your mansion outside the palace. ”

"Brothers are affectionate and righteous, it is Brother Cao who is ashamed of you, Brother Cao is here to thank you!"

Cao Jie was very moved, recalling the time when he worked hard in the palace with Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others in the past few decades and supported each other, and his old eyes couldn't help but get wet.

After that, Zhang Rang and Cao Jie talked about the past for a while, and after sighing for a while, Cao Jie got up and left at Zhang Rang's signal to find Emperor Han Ling in the imperial study.

"Brother Zhang, do you really plan not to kill Cao Jie? This person knows too many things, if his mouth is not strict and the news leaks, I and the nine buddies are afraid that they will die. ”

Not long after Cao Jie left, Zhao Zhong walked out of a dark compartment, and asked Zhang Rang with a gloomy face.

"Hmph. Brother Zhao rest assured, brother does things, aren't you still at ease? I have already sent several groups of killers to wait outside the city, as long as Cao Jie leaves the Luoyang City Gate, he will not escape death! ”

"Then why did my brother give him 50,000 pieces of gold, this is so much silver, at least I have to wait for half a year to collect money."

"I can't bear the wolf. Cao Jie is not stupid, if he didn't pretend to be a good show without me, he would definitely guess that we would kill him and think he was shut. Therefore, before leaving, he will definitely take some measures to keep it secret. It is even possible that they want us to fight to the death of the net, and we will all end up together, and announce what we have done over the years to the world. At that time, we are afraid that we will all be slashed by a thousand knives! ”

"Hmm... Brother Zhang still thinks clearly. ”

When Zhao Zhong heard this, he was afraid for a while, nodded cautiously, pondered for a while, and said solemnly.

"Brother Zhang. Today's appearance of Nashia has sounded the alarm for us. If in the past, the Holy One discussed everything with us, it seems that the Holy One deliberately concealed it from us and played a secret chess game! After the Holy Master, there must be a master to guide him, and this master is targeting us! ”

"According to my previous investigations, this Shi Anai is Wang Yue's first disciple. However, Wang Yue is just a reckless man, and he will not be a master behind the saint. I don't know who it is. However, as the time comes, we should send someone to make the relatives and guests in the states and counties restrain themselves and refrain from doing anything wrong.

The eyeliner laid by the saint will not be limited to the military. Once we allow our fathers, brothers, children, marriages, and guests to pawn in the state and county, and the matter of wealth and profit is known to the saints, I am afraid that if we do not die, even our people will be slaughtered. ”

"Brother Zhang is right, I'll let people arrange to inform them later."

Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong discussed for a long time, and arranged the things that should be dealt with at the moment. Zhao Zhong's eyes changed suddenly, and he deliberately suppressed his voice.

"Brother Zhang, the Holy One no longer has the old trust in us. If we sit back and wait for death, I am afraid that we will not escape death in the end. Brother Zhang might as well be the second Zhao Gao..."

Zhang Rang's eyes widened instantly, although Zhao Zhong's voice was small, the impact of his words was great! Who is Zhao Gao? He is the number one eunuch in history today. After the death of Qin Shi Huang, he conspired with Li Si to tamper with the edict, set up Hu Hai, the youngest son of the First Emperor, as the emperor, and forced the first emperor's eldest son Fusu to death. After Qin II ascended the throne, he designed to frame Li Si and became prime minister. Later, he sent someone to kill Qin II, and was finally killed by Prince Qin.

It can be said that Zhao Gao played with the Qin Dynasty all his life. Especially after he became the prime minister above 10,000 people under one person, his momentum was unstoppable, and no one in the Qin Dynasty dared to disobey his will, even Hu Hai, the second emperor of Qin, was also his puppet of Zhao Gao!!

Moreover, what shocked Zhang Rang even more was that Zhao Zhong had something to say. Because legend has it that the death of Qin Shi Wang is related to Zhao Gao, Zhao Gao used a slow-death poison to slowly poison him, and then forced Fusu, the eldest son of the emperor who was not in agreement with him, to death, and then supported Hu Hai to ascend to the throne and get the position of prime minister.

Zhao Zhong's implication was to ask Zhang Rang to emulate Zhao Gao.

Zhang Rang's heart beat violently, and the look in his eyes gradually changed from the fear at the beginning, and gradually became devouring, as if there was a desire to devour heaven and earth.

However, Zhang Rang quickly put away this look and stared at Zhao Zhong for a long time.

"As long as Brother Zhang is willing, my younger brother is willing to go to the soup for my brother!"

Zhao Zhong knelt down, looking like he was willing to die for it.

Zhao Gao, this is a very magical and tempting term for the eunuchs in the world. Eunuchs are flawed people, inhumane, and often looked down upon. In the world, it can be described as an inferior existence.

And Zhao Gao can be said to have become the first person of the Qin Dynasty from an inferior existence, and even Qin II at that time was just his puppet!

From inferior to the bottom, and then to the top of the world. In the eyes of the eunuchs, Zhao Gao is like a god-like figure!

"Brother Zhao, this matter... It also needs to be considered in the long term. ”

Zhang Rang slowly turned around, left the hall after leaving a word. Zhao Zhong lowered his head and leaned over, listening to Zhang Rang's footsteps gradually disappearing, and a smile unconsciously rose on the corner of his mouth.

After the ten permanent servants fall out of favor, what kind of counterattack will there be, and whether the eunuchs such as Zhang Rang and Zhao Rong are willing to step down from their high positions and become obedient slaves, these are all later words.

Looking at the general trend of the world here, the battles between the Yellow Turban Bandit Army and the soldiers and horses of the court have changed one after another. The thief army led by the thief Shou Zhang Jiao in the area of Guangzong in Jizhou was defeated by Lu Zhi one after another and was forced to defend the city. In the Yingchuan area, the Yellow Turban Army led by Bocai Peng Tuo confronted the court soldiers and horses led by Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun.

When Emperor Fu Song and Zhu Jun led the army to resist the thieves, they won several games in a row, forcing Bocai Peng to retreat into the Changshe and camp according to the grass. Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun saw this and set fire together, and the two of them each led troops to attack the thief village, the flames were open, the thieves panicked, the horses were not able to saddle, and the people were not as good as the armor, and they scattered in all directions.

The court soldiers and horses were killed until dawn, and Bo Cai and Peng Tuo defeated the remnants of the soldiers and took the road.

Suddenly, I saw a group of military horses, waving red flags, coming head-on, intercepting the way. The leader is none other than Cao Cao, one of the eight captains of the West Garden, Cao Mengde.

Cao Cao led the order of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, came to Yingchuan to help the war, just met the defeated soldiers of Bocai Pengtuo, Cao Cao is what kind of person, of course, he understands the truth of beating the water dogs, leads the army to stop, kills for a while, in the group of thieves deserters, kills seven in and seven out, beheads more than 10,000 levels, and captures flags, golden drums, and horses.

Bocai Peng escaped from the battle to the death, led the remnants of the army to flee in defeat, Cao Cao saw Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, and said that the direction of the thief's escape was Jizhou. Guessing what they wanted, they joined forces with Guangzong's Zhang Jiao, and after Cao Cao, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun asked for instructions, they led their troops to Guangzong.

It is said that Zhang Bao, according to the order of his brother Zhang Jiao, rushed to Yingchuan with Liu Pi from Guangzong. Halfway through, Zhang Bao saw a group of soldiers and horses wrapped in yellow scarves, chaotic formations, and uneven armor. Zhang Bao took a closer look, saw the leading two generals, was very familiar, and after glancing at Liu Pi, he galloped together.

Bocai and Peng Tuo were burned by Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun a few days ago, and 50,000 soldiers and horses were burned by Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, and then they were intercepted and killed by Cao Cao's army, and 10,000 people were killed in battle, and countless people fled to surrender, and now there are less than 30,000 people left. The two of them were frightened, and suddenly they saw another two horses coming, and immediately left the distance!

"Whoever is coming, report your name quickly!"

"The one who shouted is Bocai, and Boqu is handsome. I am Zhang Bao, the general of the heavenly army and the earth! ”

"Ah, it's the Digong General! The subordinate is Bocai! ”

When Zhang Bao heard this, his heart suddenly tightened, he saw that Bocai was dismantled and his armor was uneven, and the soldiers and horses he led were a remnant of soldiers, so he immediately guessed that they were unfavorable in battle, and hurriedly came to Bocai Peng Tuo with Liu Pi on horseback. Without waiting for Bocai and Peng Tuo to give a salute, Zhang Bao asked first, their battle in Yingchuan.

Bo Cai and Peng Tuo's faces were lonely, and after eye contact for a while, although they were ashamed, they still told them the results of the battle with Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun one by one.

The more Zhang Bao listened, the darker his face became, originally he received Zhang Jiao's order and rushed to Yingchuan to command the war, just to defeat Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun as soon as possible, and then move troops back to Guangzong. What Zhang Bao didn't expect was that before he arrived, the battle in Yingchuan was over. There were less than 30,000 of the 100,000 soldiers and horses left.

This remark seemed to have robbed Zhang Bao of ten years, Zhang Bao sighed deeply, and looked up at the sky with endless unwillingness and muttered.
