139 Zhang Liang entered Guangzong
Cheng Zhiyuan has been upset these days, and he borrows alcohol every day to kill his sorrows, and now rumors are spreading in Guangzong City, all pointing the finger at him, making him on the cusp of the storm for a while. Whenever I go out on the street, someone will point behind my back, looking at myself coldly, not relying on his status in Guangzong, I am afraid that someone will already blame him. In the face of these rumors, he suppressed his murderous intentions, secretly investigated who framed him, and cleared his grievances as soon as possible.
Even if he explains it a thousand times now, no one believes that he is commanding the defense in front of the city every day, and he rarely has time to see the Heavenly Master, why does the Heavenly Master not go out, and he has something to do with him, isn't this obviously wronging himself? How stupid these people are, they should be taken seriously.
He guessed that Li Zhen might be behind the scenes, the purpose was to drive a wedge between himself and the Yellow Turban generals, and when the soldiers and soldiers were not in harmony, there would be conflicts, so that he could attack Guangzong City as soon as possible. But if Li Zhen let people release rumors, as long as the Heavenly Master comes forward once, these rumors will be broken, and it will provoke people to question themselves everywhere.
Cheng Zhiyuan thought of Zhang Jiao again, could it be that Zhang Jiao let people release the wind himself, so what was his purpose? It's to take off his military power, it's impossible! He wants military power in just one sentence, and with his prestige, I dare not oppose it. What exactly is he for? Could it be that he is dissatisfied with himself and wants to find an excuse to eradicate himself? Cheng Zhiyuan was terrified when he thought about it, and only this reason was reasonable at the moment, otherwise Zhang Jiao would have come forward to explain, and he would have allowed rumors to spread.
Cheng Zhiyuan feels that he is now walking on thin ice, Zhang Jiao may take his life at any time, plus Zhang Liang's army is coming, when the two armies join forces, these two brothers want to kill themselves, then they are not at the mercy of others.
Out of human instinct, when everyone's fate is hanging by a thread, the first thing that comes to mind is resistance, Cheng Zhiyuan flashed a vicious eye, and said secretly: "Zhang Jiao, I was born and died for you, there is no merit and hard work, isn't it that I failed to repel Guangzong's official army?" You don't remember the old days, and you say that if you want my life, you want my life, okay, since you are so ruthless, then don't blame me for being unrighteous, if you want my life, even if I die. I'm not going to make you feel better ・・・・・・ either. ”
Thinking about what to do, Cheng Zhiyuan settled his family in his camp, eating and living in the camp every day, even if he traveled, he also had to lead hundreds of guards to protect himself, he was now waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity for Zhang Jiao to regret.
On the other side, several cronies summoned by Zhang Jiao on his deathbed also gathered in Zhang's mansion, and when they heard that Zhang Liang was coming with an army, they were immediately frightened, these people were against Zhang Jiao's order and stayed in Guangzong, which caused today's situation.
One said, "Tell me, what should we do now?" At that time, the Heavenly Master asked us to give up Guangzong, you were reluctant, saying that Guangzong was the birthplace of the Tianping Sect, and it was a pity to lose it, but now it is rumored that the Heavenly Master was killed, which makes us how to explain to the general of Rengong, the temper of this general, you know, if you start to be angry, you will really cut us, and I can be miserable by you. ”
"Didn't you say yes at the time? Now you know to blame us. ”
"Okay, now is not the time to argue about who is wrong and who is right, none of us expected this, now think about how to explain to General Rengong."
"Or let's run away! This general's temper is too bad, knowing that we concealed the death of the Heavenly Master and did not report it, and he didn't cut us alive. ”
"Hmph, run, where to flee? Now the city is besieged by officers and soldiers, and we fled there. The first to speak, now dissatisfied.
"Since we can't escape, then we will ・・・・・・ against him."
A few people looked at the people who said this with contempt, these were all Zhang Jiao's cronies, who had no military power, and turned against him, let them take something to oppose him.
The person who had proposed to stay before spoke: "Let's stay here, stay well, wait for General Gong to arrive, I will tell you the truth, Heavenly Master died of illness, and it has nothing to do with us, and besides, concealing the cause of Heavenly Master's death is for the sake of the army, I think General Rengong is not an unreasonable person, as long as the matter is explained, it will be fine, you can rest assured!" ”
When a few people saw him full of confidence, their hearts would not be so simple, but they could only believe him again, who made his eloquence the best among everyone, maybe he really let him extinguish the anger of the general.
・・・・・・・・・・
Zhang Liang didn't expect that he would enter Guangzong smoothly and set up a large camp under the city, so he rode to Zhang Jiao's mansion with a hundred guards.
When the big and small leaders of Guangzong heard that Zhang Liang had arrived, except for Cheng Zhiyuan, all gathered outside Zhang Jiaofu.
Zhang Liang dismounted and said, "It's ・・・・・・ all to the hall to talk." Striding into the hall.
Zhang Liang sat in a high position, saw Zhang Niujiao nodded, and said, "Where is my eldest brother now?" ”
Several of Zhang Jiao's cronies stood up one after another, and arched their hands and said: "This ・・・・・・, the Heavenly Master is now in retreat, and it is not easy to see so many people, and I ask the general to ask these people to retreat, and I will take the general to see the Heavenly Master." ”
A few people wanted people to step back and quietly find Zhang Liang to explain.
But Zhang Liang suspected that the eldest brother was plotted by someone, and these people let themselves in, didn't they just want to assassinate themselves, so he waved his hand and said: "Come on, tie up all these people for me, and you will search the ・・・・・・house for me." ”
"General, don't! Listen to what we have to say・・・・・・ ”
Outside, Zhang Liang's guards rushed in, tied up several people, and prepared to rush into the backyard.
"Who! Such a bold person let people trespass into the Heavenly Master's Mansion without permission. "There was a voice outside.
Cheng Zhiyuan led the troops into the hall, today he knew that Zhang Liang led the troops to arrive, and he would see Zhang Jiao as soon as possible, he also wanted to meet Zhang Jiao, and asked him why he had murderous intentions towards him.
When Zhang Liang saw Cheng Zhiyuan, he immediately became angry, he hated to kill him immediately and avenge his eldest brother, but when he saw that there were no less than 100 soldiers behind him, they were confronting his guards, and said secretly, I will clean you up when it is too late. "I asked people to go in and search for it, why do you have an opinion."
Cheng Zhiyuan also wanted to see Zhang Jiao now, and said with a smile: "General Rengong's order, how can I have an opinion, the Heavenly Master has not come out for a long time, and our subordinates are also very worried, so it will trouble the general." ”
Without Cheng Zhiyuan's obstruction, the guards quickly entered the backyard and searched everywhere, but they didn't see Zhang Jiao's shadow, and one of them came out and said to Zhang Liang: "General, after we went in, we didn't find the Heavenly Master." ”
Zhang Liang stood up and yelled at a few bound people: "Say, where is my eldest brother now?" ”
"Heavenly Master, Heavenly Master is in the backyard now." One person couldn't stand the murderous aura on Zhang Liang's body, and knelt down and trembled.
"Take me there."
"General, please listen to me, the Heavenly Master died a few days ago, he let him be buried quietly outside, and asked us to lead the army to leave Guangzong, but a few of us were reluctant to leave Guangzong's birthplace, so we hid it, and begged the general to spare us for the sake of the Tianping Holy Sect."
Zhang Liang thought that his eldest brother was killed, and when he really confirmed the news, he sat down on the ground and muttered, "Impossible, this can't be ・・・・・・." ”
After the people in the hall heard the news, they all couldn't believe it, the Heavenly Master was sick, and they asked people to bury him quietly, these people actually concealed it and didn't report it, so Cheng Zhiyuan's killing of the Heavenly Master was fake.
Cheng Zhiyuan didn't expect Zhang Jiao to be sick, and he had been questioned by others during this time, all of which were harmed, thinking of these Cheng Zhiyuan stepped forward with a knife and said angrily: "It's all you who hurt me During this time, I have suffered from the white eyes of others, and I want to kill you." ”
Killing people, Zhang Liang thought about it and shouted: "Slow down ・・・・・・." ”
Cheng Zhiyuan raised his sword and said: "Why, these people concealed the cause of the Heavenly Master's death and did not report it, which made the people of Guangzong panic, shouldn't they be killed?" ”
Zhang Liang came to Cheng Zhiyuan's side, looked into his eyes, and said, "Before finding out the cause of my eldest brother's death, no one can kill them, including you." ”
"What does General Rengong mean by this, do you still suspect that I harmed the Heavenly Master? What they said just now was clear, the Celestial Master died of illness. Cheng Zhiyuan roared.
Zhang Liang didn't care about Cheng Zhiyuan's roar, came to a cronie's side, and said, "Take me to the backyard." ”
Although Zhang Jiao died, judging from Zhang Liang's attitude, he didn't believe in himself at all, Cheng Zhiyuan was even more determined in his thoughts, snorted, and turned to leave.
Zhang Liang's vicious eyes looked at Cheng Zhi's distant back.
