In less than 10 days, the envoys sent by the imperial court finally arrived in Guangzong, and speaking of which, they came very quickly. After all, with the distance between Luoyang and Guangzong, it would take a month or more to go back and forth, after all, the ransom demanded by Zhang Jiao was not a lot, but it was also a lot.

However, Emperor Ling Liu Hong adopted the advice of the great general He Jin, and directly collected grain, grass and armor from Zhao State, Wei County and other places that had been pacified, just to prevent Zhang Jiao from delaying too much.

"Zuo Huangmen has worked hard all the way." Lu Zhi greeted Zuo Feng into the tent and said politely. Lu Zhi naturally didn't like Zuo Feng or all the eunuchs, but after all, Zuo Feng came this time to represent the imperial court and the Spirit Emperor Liu Hong, even if Lu Zhi didn't like it, he could only greet him.

"Hehe, it's not hard, it's not hard, compared to Lu Zhonglang who led you outside to quell the chaos, the lower officials are just helping the saint run errands, what's the hard work~" Zuo Feng chuckled when he heard this.

After some conversation, Lu Zhi suddenly asked, "Zuo Huangmen, I don't know where the slave of King Anping is?" In addition, this official once sent 4 guards to protect that person to go to the capital division, I don't know ......"

Hearing this, Zuo Feng responded directly, "Back to General Lu Zhonglang, that person is still in the Beijing Division." As for the four guards you are talking about, the lower officials have never seen them. ”

Hearing this, although Lu Zhi had some doubts in his heart, he didn't want to ask too much. After all, Zuo Feng was a messenger sent by Liu Hong, and it was impossible to force him to ask.

Subsequently, Lu Zhi ordered people to go to the city to negotiate with Zhang Jiao, and the content of the negotiation was naturally how to exchange hostages and food and armor. It's just that Zhang Jiao's attitude surprised Lu Zhi and others, because he generously sent a team of 100 people to cross the moat, and came to receive the ransom with such a swagger, and by the way, he also brought Liu Zhong and Liu Xu and their families over.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll go back on my word?!" Lu Zhi looked at the leader of the Yellow Turban Army standing in front of him and asked coldly.

"General Tiangong said that if the officers and soldiers are willing to be treacherous for this little bit of food, grass and soldiers, it will only be good for the Yellow Turban Army." The leader looked at Lu Zhi expressionlessly and said.

"Humph!" One sentence immediately attracted Lu Zhi's cold snort, "Indeed, although you are just a group of thieves, as an officer and soldier of the imperial court, if you agree, you will definitely not regret it!" ”

Hearing Lu Zhi's words, the man didn't say anything, and directly turned around and led people to push those baggage carts away.

After watching them send the grain, grass and armor to Guangzong City in a small boat and slowly transport it into the city, Lu Zhi turned around and went to visit Liu Zhong and Liu Xu who were sent back. It's just a pity that the two of them don't know about the internal situation of Guangzong that Lu Zhi asked. It was Liu Zhong, who was excited and asked Lu Zhi to immediately send troops to attack Guangzong, and with that hideous expression, others couldn't help but feel a chill.

In this regard, Lu Zhi didn't want to ask much, after all, although Liu Zhong was a prisoner, he was also the king of the county. So soon, Lu Zhi handed over the person to Zuo Feng. This time, Zuo Feng came to bring more than 100 people, but there was no need for Lu Zhi to send people to protect him.

If Li Yi was here, he would be surprised that Zuo Feng didn't ask for a bribe, but for Lu Zhi, Zuo Feng's attitude was not strange. Because in his heart, the eunuchs are a group of people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, how can Yuan Yi stay for a long time in such a place that will become a battlefield at any time?

But obviously, Zuo Feng didn't do nothing, but that everything he had to do had already been done. Fifteen days later, the group that arrived in Luoyang was immediately summoned privately by the Spirit Emperor Liu Hong, after all, there were some things that could not be said in front of those scholars.

It's just that when Liu Hong summoned the two of them and was about to scold, Liu Zhong, the king of Ganling, knelt directly on the ground and cried bitterly, "Your Majesty, please be the master of your ministers!" Subsequently, Liu Zhong told his tragic experience in 1510.

"Your Majesty! The minister's wives and concubines were all defiled by the group of thieves, and all the heirs were killed......" Liu Zhong knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, and that miserable appearance directly poured Liu Hong's anger away. Originally, if he was going to scold angrily, he swallowed it all back into his stomach, after all, Liu Zhong is already so miserable now, can Liu Hong still scold? Blame him for why he didn't hang himself early? Liu Hong really can't do such a downright thing.

"Alas...... Brother Zong, don't be sad, you ......" Liu Hongba sighed twice, but he didn't know how to persuade Liu Zhong, and finally ordered the maid to support his sect brother to go down to rest, and wait until his mood was stable before sending him back to the fiefdom.

It's just that after Liu Zhong left, Liu Hong's anger couldn't help but rise again when he saw Liu Xu kneeling on the ground and trembling. "King Anping, do you have anything else to say?!" Liu Hong's tone was full of anger, because it was very clear in Liu Zhong's words just now, and he did not give in from beginning to end.

That being the case, then who has succumbed? And who brought Lu Zhi's Shangshu to Luoyang? The answer is obvious.

"Your Majesty! The old minister is confused! The old minister is confused! I hope that Your Majesty will spare the old minister for the sake of the same filial piety queen! Hearing this, Liu Xu hurriedly begged for mercy.

"You still have the face to mention Emperor Xiaomu?! The face of the great-grandfather has been lost to you, an unfilial descendant! Liu Hong was furious when he heard this, if it weren't for Liu Xu's advanced age, I'm afraid he would have gone up directly to give him a kick.

By the way, this filial piety emperor is named Liu Kai, the sixth son of Liu Wei, the third emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and was named the filial piety king of Hejian. And Liu Xu and Liu Hong are both descendants of the filial piety king of Hejian.

"Take him down to prison for me! and his wives and concubines and heirs, all of them will be imprisoned by me! Liu Hong shouted angrily.

Afterwards, two guards dragged Liu Xu down, no matter how he cried, Liu Hong had no intention of changing his mind.

After a long while, Liu Hongcai calmed down his anger a little, and then recruited Zuo Feng of the little yellow door to ask about the war in Guangzong. Although Zuo Feng was sent to ransom people, Liu Hong also asked Zuo Feng to check the battle situation by the way.

"Back to Your Majesty, the garrison of the ministers Guan Guangzong is very loose, although the thieves gathered 100,000 people, but there are 90,000 people under the command of General Lu Zhonglang. And there is plenty of food and grass, strong soldiers and horses, and countless siege equipment, thinking about it, it won't take long to achieve victory, and even at this time, the good news is already on the way~" Zuo Feng said with a chuckle.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Zuo Feng frowned slightly and said, "It's just that the minister didn't meet the champion Hou in Guangzong, and it seems that he was sent to Yuzhou by General Lu Zhonglang......"
