In the Assassin's Mansion, Zhang Jun, the young helmsman of Liangzhou, sat on the main seat, and the counties below and the subordinates of the Assassin's Mansion sat together in a regular manner. Zhang Jun's desk was piled up with several seals written by bamboo letters, he looked up and glanced around, looking at the subordinates and counties and towns with different expressions in the hall, and sighed softly.

"In April Bingchen of the fifteenth year of Jianxing, his subordinate Yang Lie General Song Ji went out with the Pingyu general Chen Zhen to help Lingju. Our troops rushed to the west gate of Lingju, fought hard with the enemy who broke the city, and beheaded the enemy at 1,055 levels, and won the enemy's centurion and the commander of a thousand horsemen with five swords. Enemy assets, equipment, and scepters are not counted. ”

"In April Bingchen of the fifteenth year of Jianxing, his subordinate Wuxing guarded Xinyan too much, and accompanied the general Chen Zhen to rush to the aid of Lingju. Our troops followed the enemy's rout and pursued them to the enemy camp, fought until dawn, and the enemy retreated. Our troops planned to behead the enemy 1,103 times, and obtained two swords of the enemy's thousand horsemen and five swords of the centurion. Thirty-nine enemy flags, three hundred and sixty-seven enemy armor, and the rest of the military equipment are not counted......"

Zhang Jun listened to the inner attendant finish reading the two good fortune seals, got up and said with a smile to the general of the town in the hall: "I heard that the sage rules the world with literature, and fights chaos with force. This time, Liu Yin went against the sky, and actually gathered a group of rabble, crossed the river, and invaded our state. Fortunately, among the lonely ministers, Wen Chenliang will not end, so that there is a victory in Lingju! Liu Yin returned defeated, presumably in the short term, he will not dare to covet our state again. This is all the work of the public. Lonely heart is very comforting......"

When Song Ji heard Zhang Jun's statement, he hurriedly raised the Chao Wat in his hand, and knelt down: "This great victory depends on the blessing of Ming Gong, and the soldiers use their lives." Ming Gong's words, we are ashamed to hear it. ”

"Song Yanglie doesn't have to be humble. You and Xin Tai fought to break the enemy, so that Liu Yin fled south, and did not dare to look north. It can be called the dry city of the country! ”

Zhang Jun got up after saying a few cases, walked in front of Song Ji, bent down and held Song Ji's hand holding Chao Wat, and said emotionally: "Since I have crossed to the south in Jin Zuo, Wu Gong, Zhao Gong, Cheng Gong and Lone, four generations of people have been lonely in a corner of Hexi, just hoping to cleanse the dust and restore my Jin Zuo." The former Han Xiaowu Emperor had to defend Huo, so he chased the Huns, and the dust in the north of the desert was clear. Emperor Guangwu of the Later Han Dynasty had a new marquis, who was able to break Qianghu in the west and Jiaozhi in the south. Today, such as Song Yanglie, Xin Taishou and other generals of Fangzhen, they are my Wei Huo and Fu Bo! ”

"My subordinates are ashamed, I would never have praised Ming Gong so much......" Song Ji lowered his head and held up the court, with a panicked look on his face. Among the subordinates on the side, Xin Yan also came out to kowtow, and his face was intertwined with gratitude and fear.

"Before the kings rushed to the aid of the Lingju, I had a word first. For those who have won the thousand-level, the lieutenant general of the state sent a messenger to Jiangzuo to ask for a seal. Song Yanglie and Xin Taishou have already made such great feats, and they can't break their promises as a state assassin alone. The seal for the two of you has also been written. Just wait a little later, arrange for the mission to go to Jiangzuo, and mention this matter, so that the loyal and patriotic people can be demonstrated, and their wives and sons will be rich! ”

Zhang Jun helped up Song Ji and Xin Yan. Then he got up and looked around at everyone: "Do you still have a watch?" If you don't have anything to play, please go home. That's all for today's business. ”

Zhang Jun turned around and walked back to the main seat, and before he could sit down, he heard a person in the hall come out and shouted: "Subordinate Zuo Sima Yinyuan, there is a table to play!" ”

Zhang Jun sat down with a few cases in his hands, then looked up at Yin Yuan, raised his eyebrows slightly, and pretended to be puzzled: "What's the matter with Yin Sima?" It is not necessary to present the seal, just say it. ”

Yin Yuan looked sideways, glanced at the direction of Song Ji and Xin Yan with pity, and then raised his head and said loudly: "My subordinates have heard about Song Ji and Xin Yan. colluded with Lingju Sima Li Yanzhi and colluded with each other. Buy and sell enemy leaders to take the plunge! Look at the Ming Gong and see clearly! In addition, Sima Maping, Linqiang County, did not get a military order, left his post without permission, and sent troops privately. Although the crowd gathered to rush to the aid of Lingju, it made Linqiang City air defense. If the thieves enter directly, the future is unpredictable! I sincerely ask Minggong to investigate and deal with it! ”

When Zhang Jun heard this, his face turned cold. He looked back at the two people who were still in the hall and had not yet returned to the team: "Tell me about the two of you, what Yin Sima said, but is it true?" Lone thought that you and other military exploits were all earned by you, but he didn't expect to have such a thing? Linqiang Sima Maping, then listened to the tune, handed over the military power, and was released into the state governance! ”

Song Ji and Xin Yan heard what Yin Yuan said, and hurriedly knelt down, Xin Yan took the lead in saying: "Ming Gong Mingjian, the military exploits of our department, all under the command of the subordinates with their lives, the soldiers worked together, in order to avenge the revenge of the Woganling Ridge, bravely pursued the death battle, and chased the thieves to the south to the big river. However, please distinguish between right and wrong, and it is not easy to have today's situation in the state. Don't let the soldiers turn away because they listen to the slander of the moment! ”

"Yes, Ming Gong can't be hasty. What Xin Fujun said is extremely true. Now that the thieves have fled south, it is a critical moment for us to recuperate and recuperate, so that we can raise troops again in the coming day to level Longxi and settle the customs. If Ming Gong listens to slander and causes personal grievances and detachment, it is honestly unwise! ”

Seeing that the two of them were resolute, Zhang Jun on the first seat looked a little hesitant. And Yin Yuan, who poked this matter out, sneered, and then strode out and said, "In that case, the two generals deny this? The combined number of your two parts is only more than 2,000, how can you kill more than 1,000 enemies each, but the casualties of your own troops are very few? ”

When Song Ji heard this, he raised his head, and his face was already flushed: "Yin Yuan, don't spew blood!" Xin Fujun led the army to pursue the thieves, and I saw it with my own eyes. As for our army, it was at the west gate to besiege the remnants of the enemy together with Li and Mabu, and then pursued a remnant of the enemy army. Like the Xinfu Junsuo, they chased to the north bank of the Great River, and countless enemy troops fell into the water. Our troops pulled up a large net in the river, and ordered the soldiers to assassinate and fish repeatedly, so that many enemy leaders were captured. When your troops go to help, sit in the Chinese army. I didn't dare to make an inch, and I couldn't see others picking up the merits, so I made this slander. Yin Yuan, what is your intention? ”

Xin Yan was also annoyed and angry about this, and was about to speak, but Wen Yinyuan sneered again: "What the two of you do, it is naturally the two of you." Whether there is this matter or not, that is, the two of you have the final say. After that, Yin Yuan turned his head, and no longer looked at the two of them, but just arched his hand to the head and said, "Ming Gong." Leave the matter of these two people aside. Linqiang Sima did not obey the military order and attacked without authorization, Ming Gong must not lightly expose it! If Ming Gong does not pursue it, all the generals will not comply with the order in the future. How to govern the army? If you can't govern the army, how can you defend the country? ”

Yin Yuan knelt down on his knees and bowed: "Wang Minggong urges this matter, don't tolerate this kind of behavior!" ”

Yin Yuan's voice fell, and in the main hall of the Assassin's Mansion, most of the deputy civil and military attachés of the 69 counties of the 12 counties of Liangzhou, as well as nearly 100 subordinate officials of the Assassin's Mansion, knelt down together and said in unison: "Wangming Gong will not tolerate such an act!" ”

Xin Yan and Song Ji saw that Fang Cai Yin Yuan could not attack him, so they shifted the topic and the center of the storm to a small county capital Sima, and in addition to the unknown situation, the two of them also had a little bit of happiness. At this time, seeing the vote in the Assassin's Mansion Hall, the civil and military adjutants of all states and counties knelt down and bowed down. and only do the same, and kneel and prostrate their heads.

The two of them are not familiar with Sima Maping in Linqiang County, so naturally they don't have any deep feelings. Seeing that their problems and crises were covered up by this incident, the two were also busy breathing a sigh of relief. But he didn't think carefully about what kind of consideration was behind this seemingly positive dynasty.

Since his accession to the throne, Zhang Jun has never faced such neat pressure from his subordinates. Seeing this scene at this time, I was immediately a little at a loss. He didn't have time to think about the mystery behind these things. On such an occasion, he could not ask the opinions of several attendants and chamberlains who were close to him on this matter. All he faced was nearly a hundred ministers who knelt down together, and then used their voices in unison to coerce him.

Although Zhang Jun was strategizing at first, he successfully inherited the throne through a series of means when his uncle was seriously ill. During this time, the wit and scheming made those old people who had lived in the sea for a long time secretly frightened. However, he is old and weak after all. In the face of such a huge persecution, he began to play a small drum in his own heart.

"Please make a decision!" Seeing Zhang Jun sitting on the main seat, his expression was hesitant, but he did not express his position. Yin Yuan kowtowed again and shouted.

"Please make a decision!" Not long after Yin Yuan's words fell, the rest of the subordinates of the Assassin Mansion also kowtowed one after another and spoke. Zhang Jun trembled and grabbed the brushes on a few cases, hesitated, and after about a dozen breaths, he finally gritted his teeth and said: "What the monarchs discuss, Gu already knows." This matter is not urgently dealt with, and I will make a decision after I think about it carefully! ”

"Please Ming Gong decide now!" Seeing Zhang Jun standing up in a panic, Yin Yuan hurriedly kowtowed again. Then he got up, rushed to the side of several cases, and pulled Zhang Jun's sleeve.

"Please Ming Gong decide now!" The subordinates in the hall spoke in unison like marionettes, and bowed down again.

Zhang Jun tried to pull his hand twice, but he couldn't pull the sleeve out of Yin Yuan's pull. Cold sweat trickled down his forehead, and his gaze gradually became cold. He looked at Yin Yuan, who was tugging at his sleeve, and there was a hint of undisguised disgust in his expression.

"The subordinates are worried about Liangzhou, for the people, and for the king! If today's state town will make this mistake, and the subordinates will not say anything. A hundred years later, there will be no face to see the ancestor of the spring! It is to make the king disgusted with foolishness, and foolishness must not stand idly by! ”

Forced by Yin Yuan's words and forced by groups of ministers to knock on the prime minister, Zhang Jun stood alone beside the first few cases. I felt a burning pain on my face. Previously, Liu Yin was forced and Ling Ju was attacked. The entire 12 counties and 69 counties of Liangzhou, except for Li Yanzhi's guarded Lingju, Yongdeng, who was also attacked and fell, and Linqiang, whose subordinates were flying horses. The rest of the counties were unanimously silent as if they had agreed upon a discussion.

However, after the war, not only did many of these people buy the first to take the lead, but there were also Yin Yuan and other people who cowered in battle, but after the war, they united a large group of county adjutants and subordinates of the Assassin Mansion, and forced him to kill the generals who were the first to rush to the aid with such a pretext that was established but extremely absurd. Although Zhang Jun couldn't accept it in his heart, he had no choice in the face of such a situation at the moment!

Zhang Jun slowly lowered his hand. The brush he had just shaken and held in his hand also fell to the ground at this time, rolling his bones vigorously. Yin Yuan looked at the pen, and his expression became extremely fanatical. He spread the seal to Zhang Jun's case. Then he knelt down for a few steps, picked up the pen and stuffed it into Zhang Jun's hand. Then he knelt down and took a few steps back, and kept kowtowing to Zhang Jun.

Zhang Jun looked at the seals spread out on several cases with a dejected face, and couldn't help but feel extremely sad in his heart. However, when he raised his eyes and looked at the subordinate who knelt down in the main hall of the Assassin's Mansion, he felt even more sad in his heart. On the surface, who knows the dirty and filthy thoughts in their hearts?

Zhang Jun's right hand trembled, he reluctantly raised his pen, and scribbled the word "quasi" on the seal handed over by Fang Cai Yinyuan.

"What you have invited, Lone has granted! Immediately send someone to Linqiang, inform Linqiang Sima Ma to hand over the right to unload the army, and relieve the state to govern! Zhang Junyan said these words coldly insincerely, and then threw down the brush, no longer looked at the subordinate who knelt down in the hall, and returned to the back hall by himself.

After a short time, the deputy civil and military officials of the counties and counties in the hall, as well as the subordinates of the Assassin's Mansion, were already scattered. Zhang Jun lay down weakly on the couch in the inner hall, looking at the waiter standing in an orderly manner beside him, and suddenly felt depressed.

"There are doubts in your heart, why don't you summon Chen Zhen, the commander of the reinforcements, to ask what happened?" The low-eyebrow and pleasing waiter Xu saw through Zhang Jun's thoughts, resentment and doubts, so he reminded him.

Zhang Jun heard the words of the waiter, and bounced up from the couch when he boarded. He looked at the chamberlain with a hopeful face: "Since this is the case, I have to ask you to run and invite General Pingyu here!" Tell him that Lone is waiting for him in the inner hall! ”

When the inner attendant heard this, he bowed his hand as a salute, and then slowly withdrew from the inner hall, and walked out quickly. After a morning of open and secret battles with those adjutants from other towns and vassals of his own government, Zhang Jun was already sweating like pulp. At this time, it is a little soothing, and I feel sleepy. Soon he leaned back on the side of the couch and fell asleep.

When Zhang Jun woke up again, he saw Chen Zhen bowing down and kowtowing in front of his bed. And the sky outside was already dark. Immediately, he was shocked, so he asked left and right: "How long has Gu Fang been sleeping?" ”

The chamberlain replied: "The envoy has made the king fall asleep since the end of the afternoon, and at this time, it is the beginning of the unitary hour." ”

Zhang Jun frowned deeply and reprimanded: "It's been so long! Why don't you wake up Lonely, but ask Chen Pingyu to wait by for a few hours! ”

When Chen Zhen heard this, he hurriedly kowtowed and said: "Back to the envoy, Zhen cleaned up the four military affairs at noon. I can't pull away, so I just arrived. Please forgive me for my sins. ”

Hearing that Chen Zhen said that he had just arrived, Zhang Jun breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then said: "It's okay, it's okay." It's good that Chen Pingyu is here. He smiled a little embarrassedly, and then suddenly asked Chen Zhen: "Gu Su heard that Song Yanglie and Xin Taishou were in Lingju to buy the first merit, can Pingyu hear about this?" ”

When Chen Zhen heard this, he raised his head and glanced at Zhang Jun in astonishment, but when he saw Zhang Jun's inquiring face, he hurriedly lowered his head and said, "My subordinates took all the subordinates to Lingju to help, and I ......really don't know how to do this."

Zhang Jun looked at Chen Zhen seriously, but saw that there was a lot of hesitation in his eyes, so he raised his head and waved away the attendants around. After all the attendants withdrew from the inner hall, Zhang Jun turned his head to look at Chen Zhen: "Don't doubt in your heart. This matter has been rumored, and there are doubts in my lonely heart, so I summoned Ping Yu to ask. Whether there is this matter or not, it is all in between. ”

Hearing Zhang Jun's statement, Chen Zhen seemed to be a little relieved. He looked up at Zhang Jun, frowned and loosened several times, and finally nodded solemnly: "According to what my subordinates have seen, this matter ...... There must be! ”

"Oh? Tell me about it? When Zhang Jun heard this, his voice suddenly raised an octave, and he looked at Chen Zhen expectantly.
