Chapter 186 Correspondence with the Enemy
Zhu Jun's order passed down, and the master with the sharp voice gradually revealed his figure in a sloop, leading many people in, and his mouth was still counting, "Guo Mou is here, it is the will of the saint, and Zhu Zhonglang will be respectful when he sees Guo!" It's good to wait, I don't have any eyesight, and it's really a group of ignorant and reckless people, who only know how to dance knives and guns! ”
This insinuating beating made Zhu Jun's eyes cold, and he didn't get up to greet him.
He pulled out his saber and put it on the desk, tapped the blade with both hands, the bamboo slip in his sleeve slightly showed the corners, and his face was full of smiles, "Guo Huangmen, you can be quiet." These things that are not long-sighted have been fighting for days in the past few days, and the camp has happened several times, and the old man may not be able to hold back, and now he has not slept all night, and his spirit is sluggish. ”
Guo Yan had already walked to the door, looking at Zhu Jun's movements, his face was staring, and his eyes flashed when he looked at the scene in the lobby, especially the bamboo slips exposed by Zhu Jun's cuffs, which made him speed up his pace and lean up, and said with a smile: "Zhonglang will laugh, they don't have the eyesight to see it, Guo Mou's face is not given, and His Majesty's face is not given?" ”
"That's just as well."
Zhu Jun agreed, and then sighed: "However, some time ago, Liu Gongzi, who shot Zuo Huangmen at General Lu Zhonglang's place, was in our military camp, and this person was so open-minded that he might act recklessly again. Besides, there may be a lot of moth thieves hiding in the city...... On both sides, they really don't really pay attention to His Majesty's will. Guo Huangmen is out of the house, and he needs to be cautious in everything. Oh, let you laugh, it's the old man, and he doesn't dare to go out at will in this Wan City, for fear of being poisoned. ”
The corners of Guo Yan's mouth twitched, and Gao Fu behind him hurriedly played a round game, saying in his mouth, "Zhu Zhonglang will be really funny." After everyone laughed and laughed, everyone gave a salute, which was considered to be official, in addition to Guo Yan, Gao Fu, Wu Sui, Xun Shuang was also there, but there were not many words, and he seemed to be a little absent-minded.
Behind them, they were followed by a group of guards who came with them from Luoyang, as well as General Qin, who belonged to the eunuch party, led nine soldiers to follow, and those soldiers put down the four large wooden boxes, and then retreated.
When everyone was seated, Zhu Jun glanced at the wooden box, and Guo Yan looked at the busy scene of the soldiers in the lobby, his face flashed with a hint of nervousness, and then said with a smile: "There is a commotion outside, Guo Mou came over and saw that many people were killing and robbing." This inquiry is good, there are people in the city who talk crazy, saying that the imperial court has pacified Wancheng, the grain and trade will be restored, and then the money and jewelry will be useful, and when the price of grain comes down, the money and jewelry in the hand can make people live a lifetime...... Tsk, a group of foolish people are hungry for profit, snatching and grabbing, that miserable situation. ”
He shook his head and looked quite sympathetic: "Guo really couldn't bear it, so he sent kindness to save several robbed businessmen, naturally in the name of Zhonglang General." The four wooden boxes outside were sent to the Zhonglang generals by those merchants. It's just that I never thought that Zhonglang would be so Yaxing, and he would collect classics here. ”
Zhu Jun raised his eyebrows, knowing that the meaning of money and jewelry in these words was intriguing.
Xun Shuang also came back to his senses, glanced at Guo Yan, and saw that Gao Fu Wu Sui was silent, so he also turned his head, and his eyes were a little sloppy.
Over there, Guo Yan had already waved his hand and ordered the soldiers in the hall: "Wait for you to retreat first." Zhonglang will too, what is in the yamen is nothing more than some classics such as law and Confucianism, what is there to see? Wancheng is now an extraordinary period, and there is no room for sloppiness in matters of all sizes. Let General Qin deal with it here, and General Zhonglang and Guo Mou will go to see the people of Wancheng on behalf of His Majesty, and it is better to appease them. ”
Those soldiers looked at Zhu Jun with hesitant expressions, Zhu Jun shook his head, took out the bamboo slip in his sleeve and struck it on the blade of the sword a few times, and seemed to ask a little casually: "What Guo Huangmen said is extremely true, but the old man has been really tired in recent days, and in just three days, he has only slept for three or four hours. At this time, I am really upset and irritable, and maybe I will kill people to vent my anger...... Guo Huangmen might as well go by himself. These four boxes must have been distributed to the people by the old man on behalf of His Majesty. ”
The sound of percussion and "killing people to vent anger" made Guo Yan's heart weak, but he still laughed dryly: "How can it be distributed to the people!" This is the affirmation of the businessmen in the city that Zhonglang will love the people like a son. ”
These words undoubtedly show that the other party has a way to resolve the notoriety he gained by giving the killing order in the early morning, Zhu Jun pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "Love the people like a son...... Guo Huangmen raises love. The old man can't be said to love the people like a son. Last night's notoriety, the old man and Liu Gongzi can bear it together. ”
Zhu Jun repeatedly mentioned Liu Zheng, which made Guo Yan feel angry, although he suspected that Zhu Jun was arranging for him not to meddle in his affairs, and to find Liu Zhengcai as soon as possible, but he also smiled: "Zhonglang General, Guo thinks that it is good to let Liu Zheng and the thief take it all in, and the people of Wancheng ...... after all."
"Guo Huangmen is from Wancheng?"
Zhu Jun suddenly asked, "How do you know what the people of Wancheng will think?" ”
These words were slightly remarkable, and Guo Yan's heart tightened, "Zhonglang will laugh, speaking of which, Guo and Zhonglang will still be fellow villagers." ”
When he said this, he looked around, and said in the dialect of Huiji County: "General Zhu Zhonglang, you have to spare people and spare people!" ”
After finishing speaking, he continued to smile in official words: "Zhu Zhonglang will listen, what Guo said is still authentic?" ”
"Yes, yes. Oh, that's the old man's mistake. I thought that Guo Huangmen had a relationship with Guo Changshou. I heard that Guo Changshi is a native of Wancheng, and all his family members are here...... Well, it's not right to think about it, how can two people in a family go castrated? Passing on the family is a big deal, and it becomes a treasure to cut off children and grandchildren...... Well, the old man hasn't slept for a long time, and he's a little dizzy, Guo Huangmen forgives his sins. ”
Guo Yan's face had already darkened, and he heard Zhu Jun say with a guilty face: "In this way, the old man forgot to visit Guo Chang's family. Have you ever been to Guo Huangmen? Why don't you go to visit Guo Changzhi and His Majesty at this moment and talk about it? His Majesty has always been good to Guo Changshi, and Guo Huangmen should do his best. ”
Seeing a famous soldier holding five or six rolls of bamboo slips looking at him, Zhu Jun beckoned, took the bamboo slips, and looked at the words "Mulan Ci" and "Peacock Flying Southeast", and the smile on his face became rich.
That expression matched the previous words with a rather calm and relaxed attitude, especially those few bamboo slips I didn't know what was written, which made Guo Yan feel uneasy.
Speaking of which, Guo Yan was assigned by the emperor to supervise Liu Zheng's case this time, but he also had the meaning of checking the movements in the army, and Wancheng was the hometown of Guo Sheng, who was a regular servant in the middle school, and Guo Sheng naturally thought about the clansmen in Wancheng, so he asked him to come over and have a look.
Although Guo Yan and Guo Sheng are not fellow villagers, because they have the same surname, they have been taken care of by Guo Sheng in the palace in the past, and they can be regarded as Guo Sheng's henchmen.
Before coming, Guo Sheng talked about that those clansmen are greedy for life and afraid of death, maybe they will save the enemy's life, if Wancheng is not breached, let Guo Yan do something to pull Zhu Jun off the horse, or change to a friendly eunuch general to take the position, so that those clansmen can have room to turn around even if they show their feet.
But he didn't expect it to be such a coincidence, Wancheng was broken within a few hours before he arrived.
And now this old man Zhu Jun doesn't go anywhere, and he doesn't look for money and treasures to expand his family's wealth, but first looks for bamboo slips to collaborate with the enemy...... Guo Yan secretly considered the excuse he left, but he felt very tricky in his heart.
After all, the letters of collaborators found in the county guard mansion are simply shocking, and Zhu Jun's refusal to leave also shows that the other party definitely knows the true contents of these boxes of bamboo slips.
Thinking that Zhu Jun didn't eat oil and salt, and there was still time to count him now, Guo Yan was really flustered.
As a Yellow Gate, his power is actually not small, and it is easy to hear some confidential information in the palace on weekdays.
At the beginning, the moth thief Tang Zhou told the moth thief about the matter, which caused Xu Feng and Feng Xu to be killed, which has made the emperor dissatisfied with the many middle servants.
And after that, Zuo Feng was killed, Lu Zhi broke through Guangzong, but the emperor no longer cared about Liu Zheng's crimes, Guo Yan could feel that several Zhongchang servants gradually fell out of favor around the emperor, and he even heard some gossip, saying that Lu Zhi had cracked a large number of documents of the ten permanent servants in Guangzong.
Although the emperor did not make a difficulty, so that there is still a possibility of fiction in this matter, but there are some troubles in the court, Guo Yan also sees it in his eyes after all, at least for more than a month, the Han clan and those scholars are very active in the court, but the ten permanent servants are all a little sluggish, which also makes him feel that the eunuch party has lost power.
In the past, he did not reap any benefits by virtue of his status as a yellow gate, and he also knew that the eunuch faction was turning clouds and rain in the court, and he had long been regarded as a thorn in the flesh by others, but now that Zhu Jun has found evidence, he has also made insulting and difficult remarks against him, for the sake of his career and future, Guo Yan can't help but have some extreme thoughts in his heart.
But in the next moment, a few staff members dressed as Confucian generals came in to help sort out and put away the bamboo slips, and a staff member took out a piece of wood from the wooden box and glanced at it, and then looked at Zhu Jun, and saw Zhu Jun nodding, and then said in shock: "General Zhonglang, this is Zhang Rang's collaborator document!" ”
"Zhang Rang? Which Zhang Jean? ”
Zhu Jun immediately stretched his neck, Guo Yan's face turned pale in an instant, and Xun Shuang and the others also looked over.
"It's when the court is a regular servant, Zhang Rang, and Zhang Changshi!"
The staff member handed the wooden slip over, and then another staff member shouted, "This is Zhang Gong and Zhang Chang's document for collaborating with the enemy!" ”
When the third staff member heard this, he directly threw away the bamboo slips in his hand, hurriedly opened a few other letters, and then pulled away the soldiers, beckoned and shouted: "General Qin, go and call someone!" The people involved in these bamboo slips and wooden slips are all important ministers of the imperial court! The soldiers only know the induction and don't recognize the names of people, you call a few more who are familiar with the court, and we will wait ......."
"Not necessarily."
Zhu Jun looked at Guo Yanxun Shuang and the others, and laughed, "These people are all angels, and they are quite familiar with the affairs of the court, and they just happened to come to investigate the anti-thief matter, and it would be better to hand it over to them for verification." ”
"It's fine."
Xun Shuang and Wu Sui glanced at each other, nodded and leaned up.
Seeing Gao Fu looking over, Guo Yan's forehead was already full of cold sweat, "General Zhonglang, I'll just come over and have a look, and I have to go to the camp to find that Liu Zheng and the thief." At this time, it is undecided after all, if we wait to go to the camp first, you let General Qin ......"
Zhu Jun raised his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's all because of a few anti-books." Since Guo Huangmen came in person on behalf of His Majesty, he said that Liu Gongzi's rebellion was conclusive before he had tried it, and I think there was evidence. It's better to also investigate the rebellion of a few ten permanent servants, maybe the permanent servants among you are colluding with Liu Gongzi, I will wait for this investigation, and we can find out all these rebels! At that time, Guo Huangmen made a great contribution. You are the one who is the permanent attendant! ”
"Zhongzhongzhong, Zhonglang will laugh!"
Listening to a few staff members and finding letters about other Zhongchang servants colluding with moth thieves, Guo Yan wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, knowing that he was a mere yellow door, and he really wanted to bring down Zhongchang Shi, but he was afraid that he himself would have no bones, so he hurriedly defended at this time: "Xu is a thief and a fraud, and I want to wronged all of you!" ”
In this way, Liu Gongzi may also have been wronged, these bamboo slips in the old man's hands are very interesting, they are actually some poetry stories, maybe they are the molds of the anti-thieves. Guo Huangmen might as well wait for a while, the old man has already asked someone to inform Xu Tingshi, and bring over the anti-book that Liu Gongzi instigated him to rebel in Nanyang, and wait for a comparison, if there is really a discrepancy, it will be so that Guo Huangmen will not wronged the good people. ”
Zhu Jun stood up, his eyes burned, and said: "General Qin, go and inform Zhang Zihe's centurion to come over, he has been locked up by the old man in the camp for a long time, and when he sees all the angels today, he will definitely tell Liu Gongzi how to cooperate with the enemy." ”
“…… Promise! ”
General Qin glanced at Guo Yan and saw Guo Yan nodding before he went out with his fists in his hands.
"Wait!"
A staff member suddenly shouted, looked at a piece of bamboo slip fished out from the bottom of the box, and then shouted to the soldiers on the left and right: "Take Qin Hui!" This man collaborated with the enemy and rebelled! ”
General Qin's face changed greatly: "How is it possible!" The last will be wronged! ”
Zhu Jun took the bamboo slip and glanced at it, looking at Guo Yan, "Someone!" Lock it down! No one is allowed to go out! Violators will be killed! Degong, you personally go to inform Xu Tingshi and Qin Taishou, and take down the relevant soldiers of the bamboo slips, as well as their left and right guards, and friendly friends! Blockade the entry and exit of letters in the camp! The military law is strict, let the subordinates supervise each other, and those who flee without permission will be killed! ”
Seeing a staff member go out, Guo Yan's face was shocked, "General Zhonglang, what does this mean?" Could it be that Guo is also suspicious? ”
"Not really. Just for the sake of secrecy, the old man can only make this decision, and invite Guo Huangmen and all the angels Haihan. Now that the Wancheng matter is over, the old man will send someone to return to the court, and then report the matter to His Majesty, so that His Majesty can send someone to make a decision. By the way, the old man saw Shi Yiguan in the city that day, and maybe he really wrote it by him, and he had to find a few people who were quite familiar with Shi Yiguan's calligraphy...... Alas, my other Sima Zhang Chao Zhang Zi may have been killed...... The stakes are big, and I have to worry about Guo Huangmen and you here these days. ”
"What did you say?"
Guo Yan finally couldn't keep his calm and said angrily: "Zhu Gongwei...... Guo is an angel! It's His Majesty's people! Didn't you collude with Liu Zheng and rebel and try to rebel?! ”
"The old man wants to rebel?"
Zhu Jun "snapped" and threw the bamboo slip on the desk, pointed his sword at Guo Yan, whose face was condensed, and said with a fierce expression: "Someone!" Carry Liu Gongzi over to me! The old man wants to see if he dares to kill another yellow door in front of the old man! ”
"You!"
Guo Yan looked panicked, and saw Zhu Jun suddenly touch his head, and said in a trance: "Guo Huangmen Haihan...... The old man is really dizzy, then Liu Gongzi really can't come, if there is a good one, the name of the old man's rebellion must not be implemented? You will have a good rest, maybe not for long. Xun Shizhong, how about you go to the back hall with the old man first? The old man wants to judge you alone. ”
"Nakaro ......"
Guo Yan was about to speak, but when he saw Zhu Jun squinting and looking over, the killing intent in his eyes was awe-inspiring, and he was suddenly silent, An An knelt down and sat down, but he still said inwardly: "Zhonglang General, Guo is an angel anyway, and he still has to take care of the tea and rice, right?" ”
"That's nature."
Zhu Jun laughed, whispered a few words to the guards beside him, and then tilted his head towards Xun Shuang, and walked to the back hall with a few rolls of bamboo slips.
Xun Shuang was a little puzzled, but he also followed.
……
At the same time, in the camp tent, Gongsun Yue Wenpin had returned, and Sun Jing also brought over the three guests who had offended Wenpin last night and were knocked unconscious, with a guilty face, "The eldest brother was favored by Zhonglang for a while, which made the next cadre become a little self-righteous, and there were many offends, and he also invited Liu Gongzi and Wenpin brother Haihan." ”
"Yes, I was scared by Liu Gongzi. Yesterday's words, I was frightened, and I was blinded by lard for a while, so I made this decision, thinking of teaching a lesson to Brother Zhongye, and then to Liu Gongzi...... Hehe. It's not like you don't know each other. ”
One lame guest servant forced a smile, and the other two guest servants were still a little hesitant, seeing Sun Jing's eyes, they hurriedly laughed too, "It's me who is reckless." Since Sun Gongzi ...... Well, Captain Sun and Liu Gongzi are in love, those gossips must be the mouths of others, this time it is Liu Gongzi who saves Captain Sun regardless of his previous suspicions, I am grateful! ”
"I almost provoked you to be persecuted by Zhang Mancheng, I really can't afford to wait. Liu Gongzi, if you have any trouble in the future, just say it, as long as you say a word, I will help you! ”
The three guests said a word to me, and when they saw that Sun Jing was satisfied, they breathed a sigh of relief, but someone still asked a little embarrassedly: "It's just...... Dare to ask Liu Gongzi, I don't know where you learned this Wu language? I waited until yesterday to listen to Liu Gongzi's words, and I was really ashamed of myself. Speaking of which, the things at that time were annoyed and angry because of the weakness of the heart...... Ha, haha, who knew that Liu Gongzi actually listened to it. ”
Liu Zheng's expression was stunned, and his face became a little complicated, and in the afterglow, he saw Xun You squinting at him, with a posture of trying to figure him out.
He laughed dryly, "Over the years, I have had a lot of natural disasters and man-made disasters in the Han Dynasty, and there are also many people who have taken refuge in Youzhou from Yangzhou. ”
"No, you won't be able to learn this level without three or five years of hard work."
"Besides, if you don't have a heart, where can you learn so authentically...... But there are really people who are so studious. In other words, Demou only takes a few months? Wu Yu also spoke the truth. ”
"Hey, are the people of Youzhou so talented? Cheng Demou is from Youzhou like Liu Gongzi. ”
"He's different, he was an official in Wu County in his early years, and his life can be long."
Seeing the three of them gossiping, Sun Jing kicked a guest servant, "Less nonsense!" It's all sick here, and they need to be cleaned, so why don't you go and recuperate? ”
The three servants hurriedly said goodbye and left, Liu Zheng's heart moved, "I don't know who Cheng Demou is?" ”
"Cheng Pu Cheng Demou, also a native of Youzhou, and my eldest brother have always been close friends, two months ago there was no news of moth thieves in Youzhou, so he took his family south to join my eldest brother, and now he is doing things for Jing on Qin Taishou's side."
Sun Jing seemed to think of something, and let out an "oh", "Anyway, when he knew that Liu Gongzi was from Youzhou, his expression was different, and Jing guessed that he should miss his family." Do you want to see Liu Gongzi? Jing also intends to ease his homesickness. Well, if possible, I have to go north to Luoyang with him this time to completely get rid of He Ming and his family, and this matter has to be planned with Liu Gongzi. ”
Liu Zheng was stunned by the decisive posture of killing, remembering how indecisive he had been before, Liu Zheng shook his head with some displeasure, "Let's talk about this matter when we have a chance." Liu is like this now, which can be seen to be unpopular...... It's just that Youtai knows when your eldest brother will come back? There is no news of my second brother's departure. ”
