Zhang Yan coughed, "Don't say this again...... It's useless, Fang Er, my father is dying, you remember, Zhao Yun has a great kindness to our Zhang family, even if we don't want our lives, we can't repay his kindness, after you go back, you must remember that you must return the food and property that was stolen to General Zhao intact. ”

"Father, this ......"

Zhang Fang was very surprised, the thing was finally snatched up, why should he return it, he was young and vigorous, and he really couldn't figure it out.

Zhang Yan glared at him fiercely, "What do you know." Saying that, Zhang Yan briefly told Zhang Fang what happened in Liushi Town, "We are repaying virtue with resentment and being ungrateful, but General Zhao is like a sea, he desperately rescued me, if I die, not only will you not see my last face, but the Montenegrin army will also fall apart in an instant, do you understand?" General Zhao is righteous and broad-minded, we robbed them of their food and property, he repeatedly endured, can ignore the past suspicions, at the critical juncture, and almost put his own life on the line, if my father does not die, I really want to climb a step and worship General Zhao as a brother. ”

Saying that, Zhang Yan grabbed Zhang Fang with one hand and put his hand on Zhao Yun's hand, Zhang Yan was full of shame, and said to Zhao Yun, "General Zhao, I have a request before I die, I hope you can agree." ”

Zhang Yan looked at Zhao Yun with straight eyes, his eyes full of pleading.

He was already a dying man, and Zhao Yun couldn't embarrass him, so he hurriedly said, "You say, as long as you can do it, I will definitely agree." ”

"The dog is young, and there is nothing more to do, I hope that General Zhao can accept him as a righteous son and take more care of him in the future."

Seeing that Zhao Yun was a little hesitant, Zhang Yan sighed, "I also know that our father and son are cowards, and if you say something unpleasant, you are thieves, and your identity is not very glorious...... General Zhao, I beg you. ”

"Okay." Zhao Yun thought about it, and in the face of a dying person's request, he really couldn't bear to refuse.

Zhang Yan was overjoyed and hurriedly urged her son, "What are you still doing stupidly, why don't you kowtow to your father-in-law quickly." ”

After a while, Zhao Yun walked out of the house, leaving Zhang Yan and his son to say some dying advice.

Chen Gong was just outside the door, looking in anxiously, and when he saw Zhao Yun coming out, he hurriedly said, "Lord, can you take a step to speak." ”

Zhao Yun nodded, followed him to find a secluded place, Chen Gong didn't wait to stop, then said urgently, "Lord, now is a difficult opportunity, since Zhang Fang is here, we must not miss this opportunity, if we can win over, we must try our best to win over, if we can't win over, for my use, as long as we control him in his hands, we can easily control the Black Mountain Army in our own hands." ”

"No, you can't do this, I have promised Zhang Yan that I must take good care of his son, if I control him, wouldn't it be untrustworthy?"

Zhao Yun didn't hesitate and immediately refused.

Chen Gong stomped his feet anxiously, "Lord, what are you hesitating about, is it necessary to talk to these thieves about faith?" They have always been mercenary and capricious, although Zhang Yan said that he couldn't do it, but after all, his Montenegrin army still had hundreds of thousands of people, these people were not only a threat to Yuan Shao, but if Zhang Fang was controlled in his hands, even if he couldn't master all the Montenegrin army, with the prestige of Zhang Yan's father and son, we could also win over half of the Montenegrin army, isn't this good? With the addition of this force, the lord is just around the corner. ”

Chen Gong's suggestion also has a certain amount of truth, but it lacks some human touch.

But Zhao Yun felt that it was undesirable, "Even if they are thieves, they are all flesh and blood people, and people's hearts are flesh and blood, the reason why I want to save Zhang Yan is to win them over, and now Zhang Yan is about to die, if we arrest his son again, it is good to say that it is not good, Zhang Fang will also be hostile to us, now this is good, I don't believe that Zhang Fang will be treacherous and make us enemies now." ”

"Ugh." Chen Gongzhi shook his head, "People's hearts are separated from their stomachs, and they don't know how to do things, how does the lord treat Zhang Yan?" It can be said that he is affectionate and righteous, but what about him, when he said that he turned his face, he turned his face, as soon as he saw that we got so much food and property, he immediately blushed, killed so many of us, Guan Hai and Wu Anguo almost died in his hands, the lord ignored the previous suspicions, and sacrificed his life to save him, but I didn't expect him to die, he died, what would his son look like, we don't know at all, the lord's kindness to Zhang Yan, will his son take it to heart, this is not enough? If he is also a capricious white-eyed wolf, then wouldn't our efforts be in vain? ”

"Gongtai, I fully understand your thoughts, and I know that you are thinking about me, but this time, we can't do this, what kind of person is Zhang Fang, it's too early to make a decision, what's more, even if Zhang Fang is ungrateful and a repeated villain, but so many Montenegrin troops, there will always be people who understand, isn't it? If Zhang Fang is arrested now, it may be self-defeating and counterproductive. ”

Chen Gong's idea is nothing more than to treat Zhang Fang as a puppet like Cao Cao treated Liu Xie to achieve the goal of controlling the Black Mountain Army, such a means may be of interest to Jia Xu, but Zhao Yun will not agree.

People's hearts are long, he believes that in the future, he will be able to further influence Zhang Fang, even if he fails, he is confident that he will win over a part of the Montenegrin army to his side.

Chen Gong couldn't persuade Zhao Yun, and sighed helplessly, "Zhang Fang will leave later, and the next time we meet, I don't know when I will wait, don't look at Zhang Yan dead, but Zhang Fang still has so many people around him to follow him, if he one day stands on our hostile side, it will be too late to regret it, and the consequences will be unimaginable." ”

After a while, there was another howling cry in the house, and Zhao Yun hurriedly rushed into the house, only to see that Zhang Yan was already lying upright on the bed, already breathing.

Finally persuaded Zhang Fang, Zhang Fang stopped his sorrow, hurriedly wiped his tears, and said to Zhao Yun, "Father-in-law, don't worry, when I go back and bury my father, I will immediately ask someone to send you back the stolen grain." ”

"No need, I just told your father that the food should be given to you."

"How can that work?"

Zhang Fang hurriedly shook his head, "Before my father died, he repeatedly told me that we couldn't live with my father-in-law, you didn't care about the villain, and risked your life to save my father, our father and son have nothing to repay, and we will give you whatever the grain says." ”

Zhao Yun patted him lightly on the shoulder with his hand, "If you recognize me as a father-in-law in your heart, then listen to me, the food is given to you, it will be regarded as my support for you, and then Yuan Shao will definitely turn around and deal with you after cleaning up Gongsun Zhan, these grains are just to solve your urgent needs, if you have any difficulties in the future, just come to me, you will take care of yourself after you go back." ”
