Chapter Ninety-One: The Secret Scroll
The man was straight, his cheeks were slightly concave, and although his temples were slightly white, his eyebrows were full of the vitality of a young man, but he did not lose the majesty of an elder.
Although it was already a cold winter month, he was still ruddy and not half tired in a short fight wearing only a coarse cloth.
Seeing this, Zhang Lan beckoned over there, and Wei Qing finished the last action and walked to the two of them with a knife.
"My subordinates have seen the general." Zhang Lan, who had a hippie smile, saw that Wei Qing also saluted him with that casual look, and Lu Zhao hurriedly leaned down and gave a slight salute when he saw this.
Wei Qing hummed, didn't say anything, took the coat handed by the soldier on the side, draped it on his body, turned around and walked towards a camp tent.
"You've done it?"
"The subordinates have thoroughly ascertained the situation of Zhao Wusheng, the general stationed in Hanlong City, and this person is indeed as the general expected, there are some problems."
Lu Zhao was stunned when he heard this, this was clearly the opposite of what Zhang Lan had said before in Hanlong City, could it be that he wanted to frame Zhao Wusheng in order to cater to the general?
Wei Qing nodded, he sat in his seat and looked at Zhang Lan: "What evidence do you have?" ”
"The evidence is here, please take a look at it." As he spoke, Zhang Lan took out a ledger from his arms, which densely recorded some names, and Wei Qing looked at those names and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"Hmph, these shameless old thieves, I knew it was their trick."
After that, he threw the roster on the table, picked up a cup of hot tea, and was just about to take a sip when he saw Lu Zhao standing aside.
Wei Qing put down the teacup and looked at the young man carefully.
Although this person looks like he is only seventeen or eighteen years old, the kind of arrogance revealed between his eyebrows does not belong to this age at all, which makes Wei Qing have some interest in this kid.
"Who is this?"
Seeing that Wei Qing set his eyes on himself, Lu Zhao knelt on the ground without waiting for Zhang Lan's introduction, clasped his fists and said: "General Huiyu, his subordinate is Lu Zhao, who is under General Cao, who is closed in the Jade Gate. As he spoke, Lu Zhao took out the map he was carrying with him and handed it over, Wei Qing waved his hand and ordered someone to take the map, and his expression froze after seeing him.
"Where did you get this picture?"
Seeing that Wei Qing was so nervous, Lu Zhao knew that this matter should be far more serious than he thought, so he told him about this picture one by one, and when it came to Jiang Twelve being controlled by the Hun Fang Ge Tiankite and letting it back, the expression on his face seemed to stretch slightly.
"If that's the case, that's right." Wei Qing threw the picture into the charcoal basin on the side, and the light silk silk burned under the charcoal fire, and soon shattered into a piece of dregs.
Lu Zhao looked at the charcoal basin in confusion and didn't know why Wei Qing did this, the latter sighed and turned to Lu Zhao and said, "You go back and tell your general, I already know about this matter, and remind him to be careful." ”
Lu Zhao nodded, and suddenly he looked at Zhang Lan as if he had thought of something, and the latter frowned slightly and shook his head at him slightly.
"In that case, let's settle this little brother to rest first, Zhang Lan, you tell the general about this matter."
After that, Lu Zhao was taken out by a few soldiers, but he was still puzzled in his heart, why did Zhang Lan's face change when he saw General Wei Qing?
Lu Zhao took out the jade pendant in his arms and looked at it carefully, he could still think of Zhao Wusheng's awe-inspiring appearance of life and death three days ago, and he also told Lu Zhao that as long as he took out this jade pendant, he could prove his innocence, but why did Zhang Lan stop himself?
Just when he was puzzled, Zhang Lan actually came back, holding a few steaming sweet potatoes in his arms and happily ran to Lu Zhao's side.
"Come on, you're hungry, here's one." Zhang Lan picked up a sweet potato, patted the dust on it, and stuffed it into Lu Zhao's hand, Lu Zhao didn't take it, but raised his head and stared at Zhang Lan tightly.
The latter naturally knew what he meant when he saw Lu Zhao like this, so he sat next to Lu Zhao.
The air was quiet and scary, none of them spoke, and Zhang Lan silently picked up a roasted sweet potato.
The sweet smell spread in the air, and Lu Zhao also felt a trace of hunger, so he unceremoniously picked up a roasted sweet potato, peeled it and began to gobble it up.
Because the delay was too long, a few of them were in a hurry so they almost didn't eat anything in the past few days, and now they were hooked by roasted sweet potatoes and were even more hungry, and soon a few roasted sweet potatoes were wiped out for them, although they were not full, but they were much less hungry.
Zhang Lan stretched comfortably, and he looked at Lu Zhao with a slightly helpless smile: "Sometimes, I envy you a little that you don't need to think so much, just complete the task." ”
Lu Zhao looked at him and frowned slightly.
"What do you mean by that?"
Zhang Lan smiled: "What do you think of Zhao Wusheng?" ”
"How?" Lu Zhao bowed slightly: "He is a rare master, and he also values love and righteousness, but ......" Lu Zhao paused: "But I ...... other aspects"
"Why help him if we don't know him?" Zhang Lan's words made Lu Zhao slightly stunned, and Zhang Lan continued when he saw this: "You also said before, you can't just see external troubles and ignore internal worries, there are many forces in this court, and how are these multiple forces eyeing the twelve generals here, do you know all this?" ”
Lu Zhao opened his mouth, although he felt that this matter was a little too cold, but what Zhang Lan said was indeed like this.
In such troubled times, it is still difficult to protect oneself, so what leisure is there to take care of other people's affairs?
"However, this Zhao Wusheng really doesn't deserve sympathy."
Zhang Lan's words cut through the original tranquility like a knife.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Do I know why he made the Huns dare not attack, and why did he make everyone in the city love?"
Lu Zhao shook his head, he and Zhao Wusheng were only a day and a day, and the others were naturally not as profound as Zhang Lan, who went to investigate in person.
"This guy once slaughtered more than a dozen people from all over his family one by one on the top of the city tower, just to deter Mingzhi and avoid future troubles in case he was caught, such a bloodthirsty maniac, do you still think he is a good person?"
Lu Zhao was quite surprised, he couldn't believe that this was what Zhao Wusheng did.
Seeing Lu Zhao like this, Zhang Lan smiled helplessly: "So I envy you, I don't need to weigh these, although Zhao Wusheng didn't do anything treasonous, but someone in the court used this matter as a handle to threaten the border generals, but I was afraid that it would be another bloody storm, the current situation is unclear, and I can't think of any clever methods, so Zhao Wusheng must die, this matter can be over, otherwise this Zhao Wusheng will bring great disaster." ”
Zhang Lan's words made Lu Zhao's heart burn a little, he lay on his back on the collapse, and suddenly felt an abnormal tiredness.
However, just as he relaxed his body and was about to fall asleep, a hurried trumpet sounded, and the two of them got up and got out of the tent out of instinct.
At this moment, there was already a commotion in the camp tent, Zhang Lan casually grabbed a soldier to inquire about the situation, and the other party said that the Hun general came to the city to call for battle, and asked General Wei to go by name.
What a rampant Hun general!
Zhang Lan secretly sneered in his heart, it seems that perhaps only the young generals of the Huns dare to come and shout the first fierce general of the Han Dynasty.
"Let's go and see." Saying that, Zhang Lan dragged Lu Zhao towards the city gate.
