Chapter 142: Life is like a drama (for the reversal of the good reward plus)
Ma Cai pondered in his heart: This old fisherman looks honest, stupid and stupid, and is as timid as a mouse, not like a person who dares to lie and deceive him, could it be that what he said is true?
Ma Cai turned his head to look at Zhang Zhao, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that something was wrong, although this person was dressed ordinarily, but he did have a good bearing, quite a bit of a gentleman's demeanor......
Oh no, why didn't I notice it in the first place? He can't really be the staff member that Zhang Fan just recruited, right?
That's not good, no one in the whole Jiangdong doesn't know that Zhang Fan is not a good stubble, Zu Lang and Yan Baihu are all powerful characters, and they are all easily cleaned up by him. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info It is said that the people who died at his hands, if not a thousand, but eight hundred, were real ruthless people who killed people without blinking.
If he really caught his staff and killed him by mistake, then he would be dead. Don't say it's him, even if it's the son of the patriarch of the Zhu clan, he probably kills him if he says it......
"Hey, is he telling the truth? Are you really Zhang Fan...... The general's staff? I count from one to three, and if I don't speak, it means no, then I'll slaughter this old man who lied to me first......"
Although Ma Cai pretended to be tough, he always had a feeling of being a little inward-looking, his voice was loud but his confidence was insufficient:
"I started counting, one ...... 2. ......"
Zhang Zhao looked at his old fisherman with a pleading face, after all, he was also a kind-hearted and good person. Just now, he didn't hesitate to jump out to protect his safety, which made him feel pity.
You don't kill Beren, but Bern dies because of you. If you let him die so miserably in front of you, how can you bear it?
Anyway, Zhang Fan is now far away in Jing County, and he won't be able to come back for a while, even if he pretends to admit it, it is impossible for this horse to go all the way to find Zhang Fan to confirm.
As long as you survive, you will have a chance, and as long as you find a way to spread the news, you may be able to find someone to save you......
Seeing that Ma Cai's "three" word was about to blurt out, Zhang Zhao gritted his teeth and took the first step in his desperation:
"That's right...... I'm Zhang Fan...... The general's staff ......"
As soon as the words came out, he suddenly opened up, his tone became more and more smooth and natural, and there was still a faint pleasure in his heart, and he continued:
"After I received General Zhang's call, I immediately set off from Guangling and went all the way south, but I didn't expect that as soon as I arrived in Shanyin County, I was arrested by you indiscriminately...... Wait, the general will definitely do justice for me......"
Ma Cai's face was blue for a while and white for a while, his eyes kept sweeping around Zhang Zhao, and he couldn't make up his mind for a long time, and one of his subordinates said a few words in his ear, and Ma Cai commanded with a gloomy face:
"Free up an empty cell for them to live in first, and wait for me to confirm my identity with General Zhang Fan before we make a decision." After saying this, he began to walk outside......
But before Ma Cai went out, he looked back at the two people and said coldly:
"But don't be too happy, I heard that this General Zhang Fan should be back in the next few days. I'll send someone to Huanglongzhai to wait now, if General Zhang says he doesn't know you...... Hmph, that's fun! It's going to be fun......"
Zhang Zhao's heart palpitated, as if he had been struck by lightning, he barely kept his complexion unchanged, pretended to be calm, and said lightly:
"True or false? We'll see when the time comes...... However, the battle ahead is not over yet, how can the general suddenly return? ”
Ma Cai saw that he was still very calm at this time, but he felt a little empty in his heart, and decided to sell him a good one first to ease the relationship.
"You may not know, in fact, I just heard that five days ago, the Lu clan of Wu County sent someone to the door to say that they were willing to marry Lu Jing, the fifth lady of the Lu clan patriarch, to General Zhang as his wife, and it is said that the old lady sent several waves of messengers to ask General Zhang to come back to discuss marriage!"
It's bad, Zhang Zhao pondered, this thing is still possible...... After all, Zu Lang lost so badly in the battle of Heiyi Jiang, he couldn't recover for a while, and he definitely didn't dare to take the initiative to attack the Han army, so there was no pressure on the front line for the time being, even if Zhang Fan came back once, it wouldn't hurt.
And I heard that Zhang Fan is a dutiful son, if the old lady insists on him coming back, then he is also very likely to compromise......
Secondly, the object of this discussion is Miss Lu's daughter, this marriage is of significant political significance, and it will bring countless benefits to Zhang Fan......
Zhang Zhao secretly complained bitterly, shouldn't he be so unlucky?
He originally expected that Zhang Fan would not be able to come back for a while, anyway, if he pretended to be for the time being, he would not be exposed for the time being, and he could use this time to find someone to save him.
But in case a sail suddenly returns early tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, Ma Cai asked, this pretense will be revealed, and it is not difficult to guess what kind of cruel means Ma will use to concoct himself......
Ma Cai didn't know Zhang Zhao's Xiao Jiujiu, and said with envy and hatred:
It is said that the Lu family attaches great importance to this marriage and is willing to take one-tenth of the Lu family's total assets as a dowry. Tsk, do you know how many fertile land, real estate, shops, and cargo ships the Lu family has? You can't even imagine what a huge sum of money this is? With this dowry, General Zhang could rise from the ground and become one of the wealthiest people in the whole of Jiangdong. ”
At this time, Zhang Zhao's uneasy thoughts in his heart became even stronger. On the one hand, I was surprised that Lu Chou, the patriarch of the Lu clan, had a vicious eye and a discerning eye, and saw that Zhang Fan had a bright future like himself, and was willing to invest heavily. No wonder the Lu clan is thriving under his leadership, and the No. 1 clan in Jiangdong really lives up to its reputation!
On the other hand, I feel that this time Zhang Fan seems to be coming back early, it seems, it is possible, and there is a chance that he will really come back early, which means that there is not much time left for him...... From now on, you have to prepare for the worst and think about what you will do then.
Ma Cai smiled and said: "I have offended a lot in Xia, and I ask Mr. Zhang to forgive me, there is no way to determine your identity at the moment, so I can only temporarily wronged you to stay here for a few days...... Fortunately, General Zhang will be back soon, and I'm sure you won't be here for long......"
Putting down a pun, Ma Cai left in a hurry without looking back......
After Ma Cai left, the rest of the officials politely took the two to a large cell with a window, which was clean and tidy, there were two beds in the room, all the furniture was available, the bedding was renewed, there were pen, ink, paper and inkstones, and even sandalwood was ordered at a high price......
Compared with the previous class room, this is simply a heaven and an underground, and the treatment is too bad. It seems that this is what Tang Wang called the "top cell", because it was only a short time for them to move in, and it was definitely not a temporary preparation......
A servant flattered, "Sir, look at what else you are not satisfied with...... Although it is said that as long as it can be satisfied, we will try to meet the ......"
The attitude of the officials towards him also turned 180 degrees, from ridiculing and scolding to responding to requests...... After all, if he is not afraid of 10,000, he is afraid of what if, if he is really Zhang Fan's staff, they will definitely not be able to eat and walk around after the autumn, who is not afraid?
Zhang Zhao reluctantly smiled: "Well, everything is quite satisfying...... It's all right, you guys get out! ”
Zhang Zhao had to sigh that Zhang Fan's deterrent power was really not blown out...... He just falsely reported Zhang Fan's name, and even if his identity could not be determined, these officials were also condescending to him and flattering him to the fullest.
If he is really good, of course, otherwise his deeds will be revealed in the future, and these forces and villains will definitely make up for what they lost today tenfold and hundredfold, then he will be miserable...... If you are powerful today, it is equivalent to digging a pit for yourself, and Zhang Zhao is naturally not sensitive.
Blowing away the noisy servants, Zhang Zhao rubbed his temples and began to lie on the bed with his eyes closed, thinking about what to do next......
Zhang Zhao didn't notice that when he closed his eyes, the eyes of the old fisherman with a bitter and vengeful face just now flashed, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing a happy expression of a fisherman who saw the fish take the bait.
Then it disappeared in the next second, and his face returned to its original lifelessness, as if nothing had happened......
