Chapter 109: Zhang Baiqi's Death
The soldier guarding the gate was summoned to Zhang Bai's camp for questioning, and the soldier replied: "In the morning, General Wei said that he had been ordered by the commander to escort the eldest lady out of the camp to hide, and the small one had checked the token and there was nothing unusual, so he did not stop it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info The small one will immediately lead someone to chase. ”
"Alas, leave it to fate! Since they are gone, let them go, and all of you will go down. Zhang Baiqi said miserably.
He took out a small brocade box and opened it tremblingly, inside was a silk book and a longevity lock, on which Zhang Ning's birth date was written.
Zhang Baiqi looked at this brocade box and was distracted, he still remembered that when Zhang Ning was full moon, the family gathered at Julu's house, and the happy scene, unconsciously, was already full of tears.
That night, Zhang Baiqi went to see Jiang Sheng alone, and Jiang Sheng was surprised when he saw Zhang Baiqi's appearance.
"Brother Zhang! I haven't seen you for three days, how can I become like this? Jiang Sheng saw Zhang Bai riding with white temples, where is the appearance of a young man in his twenties?
"The oil runs out and the lamp is dry, and it won't last a few days!"
"Why? How serious are you? ”
"If you abuse the Dao technique in the next place, you should be deserved! Brother Jiang doesn't need to ask. ”
Jiang Sheng has never believed in these so-called Seven Stars Life Extension, Opening Heavenly Eyes and other Taoist techniques, but when he saw Zhang Baiqi like this, he couldn't help but believe it.
"Zhang Ning rejected my proposal, and left in the morning with an escort of Su Gu, whose whereabouts are unknown." Zhang Bai rides.
"I hope that she is auspicious, and if she goes with her, she will definitely protect her, and Brother Zhang should not worry too much."
"Well, let her go. But I still hope that if the general finds Zhang Ning in the future, he must take more care of it. ”
"Don't worry, Brother Zhang, since I should do this, I should spend my life fulfilling my promise."
Zhang Baiqi took out the brocade box and handed it to Jiang Sheng.
"What is this?" Jiang Sheng asked.
There is a silk book in the box, on which Zhang Ning's birthday is recorded. There is also a longevity lock, this longevity lock is divided into two according to the pattern, Zhang Ning is wearing half of it, and half of it is in this brocade box. If Brother Jiang finds Zhang Ning in the future, he will use this brocade box to know a pair. ”
"Then I will accept it, and I will live up to Brother Zhang's trust!"
"If Brother Jiang doesn't dislike it, if she finds Zhang Ning in the future, let her be a maid in the house and spend her life safely, if Brother Jiang has no intention of her, please ask Brother Jiang to find an ordinary family for her to have no worries about food and clothing."
"Brother Zhang, don't worry, I will treat her as my own sister, and find a good husband for her in the future, and it will not be in vain for Brother Zhang's trust."
"Alas, it's all up to Brother Jiang. I still have a word to say to Brother Jiang, and I hope Brother Jiang will keep it a secret. My stepfather was taught by Nanhua Lao Xian before his death, and the content is all-encompassing, but unfortunately I didn't meet anyone who deserves it. This book is on Zhang Ning, the stakes are very high, and I hope that Brother Jiang will find it as soon as possible, so as not to fall into the hands of the gangsters and put Zhang Ning in a dangerous situation. ”
The reason why Zhang Baiqi told Jiang Sheng this secret was to believe in Jiang Sheng's character, and secondly, to remind Jiang Sheng that if the Taiping technique fell into the hands of gangsters, chaos would arise. There is another meaning, that is, Zhang Ning is very unsafe with "Taiping Technique", and I hope Jiang Sheng will find Zhang Ning as soon as possible.
Jiang Sheng said: "I remember!" I will do my best! ”
Zhang Baiqi took out another bag and handed it to Jiang Sheng, "This is the last words of my handwriting and the token of the great sage and good teacher of Taiping Dao, if the yellow scarf rises again in the future, Jiang Sheng can bring this thing to recruit its leader, so as not to destroy the soul." ”
Jiang Sheng accepted the bag and held Zhang Baiqi's cold hands, he couldn't help but feel a little lost, although Zhang Baiqi was a rebel, he was a true man who valued love and righteousness, and he couldn't help but feel a little heroic and sympathetic.
After Zhang Baiqi explained everything, he said goodbye to Jiang Sheng and went back to the camp.
In the camp of the Yellow Turban Army, there were only more than 20,000 people left, and the rest dispersed. Zhang Baiqi bowed three times to these soldiers who were still following, and then gave an order, pulled out the camp and went north, to return to Jiang Sheng, who was stationed in Nanpi.
Jiang Shengjun's banner is clear, divided into the city and the city, the military prestige is obvious, Jiang Sheng sits on the main seat, waiting for the arrival of Zhang Bai's cavalry.
This is a moment of jubilation for all the people, since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Jizhou finally really settled down, and the periphery of the surrendered site was full of onlookers, who came to witness this important moment.
When the auspicious time came, Zhang Bai rode off his horse and walked to Jiang Sheng with the generals of all departments.
Zhang Baiqi took off his armor, knelt down and bowed: "Sinners Zhang Baiqi greets your lord!" ”
Jiang Sheng got up and went over to hug Zhang Baiqi, and said, "Brother Zhang doesn't need to be polite, come, sit and talk!" ”
Zhang Baiqi couldn't kneel down, and presented the handsome seal of the Yellow Turban Army and the seals of the generals of each department with both hands, and Zhang Nan took it.
According to the surrender ceremony, after handing over the seal silk token, the whole army will hand over the armor and weapons, Zhang Nan led the troops to supervise the Yellow Turban to complete the process, and then give Jiang Sheng.
Jiang Sheng followed the original practice, first counted the old, weak, sick and disabled, and then asked the young and middle-aged to voluntarily choose to stay, and distributed a small amount of coils on the spot.
As a result, all the young and middle-aged people chose to stay, and those who were old, weak, sick and disabled were forcibly dismissed, so they had to resign and leave.
Jiang Sheng's approach won the support of these Yellow Turban soldiers, although the Yellow Turbans harmed Jizhou for two years, but the people saw these Yellow Turban soldiers in rags, full of vegetables, sympathy exceeded hatred, Jiang Sheng also won the hearts of the people.
When the surrender ceremony was about to end, Zhang Baiqi suddenly snatched the knife of a guard beside Jiang Sheng, and everyone was shocked, seeing that Jiang Sheng was in danger but could not be rescued.
Jiang Sheng was also shocked in his heart, what is this white horse going to do?
Zhang Baiqi smiled miserably and said, "Zhang Baiqi can't repay the general, so use this master to repay the adult!" ”
Jiang Sheng couldn't stop it, Zhang Baiqi had already killed himself with a horizontal knife, blood sprayed all over the ground, and after Zhang Baiqi fell to the ground, he still had a smile on his face, a smile at the end of the hero.
In the past few days, Jiang Sheng has regarded Zhang Baiqi as a brother, and at this time, seeing Zhang Baiqi die a heroic death, he couldn't help but burst into tears.
When all the Yellow Turban soldiers saw that Zhang Baiqi was so heroic, they all knelt down and bowed.
The sunny day was suddenly overcast, and snow flakes with goose feathers fell one after another. The cold wind howled, as if to send this loyal man a ride.
When Jiang Sheng saw such a scene, his heart was shocked, and he couldn't help but believe the words of the stars! It was immediately announced that Zhang Baiqi would be buried in a grand manner, and all the soldiers from the Yellow Turban of the army could attend the funeral ceremony.
Those soldiers from the Yellow Turban are determined to follow Jiang Sheng, because Jiang Sheng is a gentleman! He's a benevolent person! The funeral of the Yellow Turban will be a great disapproval, which is also a great disapproval of the world, but Jiang Sheng really did it, and the man who values righteousness has always been respected.
Three days later, Zhang Baiqi's funeral ceremony was held under the auspices of Jiang Sheng, and nearly 30,000 people outside Nanpi City attended, almost all of them were former Yellow Turban soldiers who returned to the official army, and among these people, there were also two people who did not return to the official army.
