Chapter 65: Aftermath
Last time, it was said that Cao Cao's assassination of Zhang Rang failed, and he turned around and ran. Zhang let himself not catch up.
Just now, between the lightning and flint, Zhang Rang didn't see the other party's face clearly, so he didn't recognize the assassin as Cao Cao. If Zhang Rang recognized it as Cao Cao, he would not choose to chase it.
Although Zhang Rang was very disgusted with Cao Cao, he originally thought that Cao Cao's grandfather Cao Teng was the same as himself, and he was also a eunuch, although he was not happy with Cao Teng all the time to suppress himself, but after all, everyone is in a eunuch formation, and they should be the same to the outside world. I don't know what kind of madness this young man Cao Cao is making, and he is against his side everywhere. His own side had taught him two lessons, and he still didn't know how to repent. He is still mixed with He Jin's pig now, and the funniest thing is that the people on He Jin's side think that he is a eunuch and they are all rejecting him. I really can't understand what Cao Cao's purpose is to make himself uncomfortable like this.
If it weren't for Cao Cao's ability to be very good and his courage was enough, he just lacked talents in this area on his side, and Zhang Rang really wanted to kill him directly. Now Zhang let them look at the face of Cao Cao's dead ghost grandfather, of course, mainly because Cao Song's gift is also very impressive, Zhang let them choose to let Cao Cao go.
It was precisely because of Zhang Rang's unconscious connivance with the assassin that when the guards heard his shouts, they reacted again, rushed to the prison, and finally chased in the direction of Cao Cao's escape, Cao Cao had already taken advantage of this time to escape.
It's just that Cao Cao himself escaped, but did he forget a very important thing that he didn't take with him? This is not talking about the dagger inserted in the prison door, but the big living person of Tang Zhou.
Cao Cao didn't forget in his heart, he also wanted to rescue Tang Zhou, but just now Zhang Rang was already blocking the prison door, and it seemed that he wanted to enter inside. Cao Cao wanted to rescue people safely without alarming Zhang Rang, which was a completely impossible task.
It's just that Cao Cao didn't worry about Tang Zhou's life, he thought that Tang Zhou was an important witness, and even if Zhang Rang found out that Tang Zhou had left the cell, he wouldn't do anything to Tang Zhou. It's just that this time I scared the snake, and if I want to rescue Tang Zhou in the future, it will not be as simple as today.
Now, Cao Cao is worried about Tang Zhou's innocence, and he is worried that the poor person's certificate will be continued to be ruined by the dead pervert Zhang Rang. Cao Cao recalled Tang Zhou's unusual enthusiasm when he met Tang Zhou in prison, and Cao Cao could only pray silently in his heart for the poor man.
On the other hand, what Zhang Rang values more is the poor witness that Cao Cao remembers in his heart - Tang Zhou. Zhang Rang was more worried that the witnesses had been rescued than that the assassins had escaped. Because he didn't have to guess, he could think that it must be He Jin's person who attacked him just now. And He Jin sent this person not to assassinate himself, but to snatch the witnesses in his hands.
Tang Zhou, who was worried about both sides, had just heard someone outside calling for an assassin, and he knew that the person who saved him was exposed, and he was about to finish the game. He touched the money bag in his arms, and his heart was full of reluctance, not knowing whether he was reluctant to give up the money in his arms, or unwilling to have no chance to spend any more money. Maybe both.
Didn't he die poor the other day? How is it that there is money again now? Where did all the money come from in his arms?

When Cao Cao went out to look for clothes, Tang Zhou was not idle, he was also looking for it, but he was looking for it on the three corpses and the beds under them, and what he was looking for was money.
Tang Zhou didn't want to be disrespectful to the dead, but he was really scared, so he went to carefully search the corpses to see if there was anything valuable on them. And he really found some silver taels, and he found that each guard had a lot of money, which was comparable to the amount he brought with him every day when he was in the inner circle of the Taiping Sect. He sighed in it: The people in these eunuchs' families are really good, and the treatment of an ordinary guard is worthy of the elite in the Taiping Sect.
Although Tang Zhou scavenged a lot of money from those three unlucky people, this money aroused Tang Zhou's jealousy, he hated the eunuch for harming him like this, and hated that the ordinary guards of the eunuch's family were richer than himself. So he punched and kicked the three corpses.
It's just that retribution came soon, just when Tang Zhou kicked the three corpses and was so tired that he knelt on the ground panting, the sound of fighting faintly came from outside the cell, and then he heard the call of "catch the assassin". This means that the little strong man who was responsible for saving him has been found and he cannot escape.
So now Tang Zhou has become this unyielding look.
Zhang Rang arranged for the commander of the guards to pursue the assassins, and took the two guards into the prison. didn't go far, and saw Tang Zhou, who was lost and depressed, and three motionless corpses lying on the ground, some lying on their backs and some lying on the ground.
Zhang Rang didn't know if the three guards were dead or not, but it was estimated that they should be dead, and there were blood stains on the ground and bed.
Zhang Rang looked at the guards lying down, one of them was lying on his stomach, and found that there were no blood stains on his body, but there were footprints on his body, but judging from Zhang Rang's experience, those were not fatal injuries, because the corpse's neck was twisted at a strange angle, and it should have been twisted off.
The other was clothed, with blood on his upper body and face, and his frightened eyes open. Zhang Rang carefully observed the wound and felt that the guard should have had his throat cut and was fatally stabbed.
Zhang Rang asked his subordinates to turn over the body of another clothed guard who was lying on his stomach, and saw that he was similar to the previous corpse, but his upper body and face were red with blood, and there was only fear left in his eyes, and his throat should have been cut.
Judging from the large pool of blood on the bed, the two people whose throats were cut should have died on the bed, both of them were killed with a knife, and they didn't even have a chance to fight back. But now, they had fallen to the ground, and it was evident that the man who was left in the room had done it, and the good Assassin who had escaped just now obviously would not have had the leisure to do such a boring thing.
Zhang Rang told his men to close the eyes of the three corpses, and told them to notify the people outside to come in and move the three corpses out.
After all this was done, Zhang Rang looked at Tang Zhou, who was standing in the corner trembling, and found that he was still holding the knife used by the guards in his house.
Just when Zhang Rang looked at Tang Zhou, Tang Zhou dared to raise the knife in his hand to Zhang Rang, but the knife had not been pulled out of its sheath yet, and if it was dragged in Tang Zhou's hand and trembled, it was likely that it would fall to the ground in the next second because it was unstable.
