Sealed the silk book for a long time, Zhang He hesitated again and again, but still took it, just a letter, and it was not a problem. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

When Zhang He opened the silk book and saw it with his own eyes, he couldn't help but add a trace of pride to his face.

It was a rather polite letter of surrender.

In the letter, Zhang Yuan praised Zhang He's strength in a highly appreciative tone, indicating that he wanted to surrender to his good intentions.

Being able to get the enemy's appreciation, and being a great prince of Zhang Yuan, is enough to make Zhang He proud.

"General Zhang, what did Zhang Yuan say in the letter?" Mayan asked curiously.

"What else can it be, it's nothing more than a compliment to me and an attempt to recruit me." Zhang He smiled disdainfully, and gave the silk book in his hand to Ma Yan.

Ma Yanquan also sneered sarcastically: "Zhang Yuan, this is because I saw that my Ancheng was solid and had nothing to do, so I wanted to recruit a general, and I no longer had the confidence to capture Ancheng." ”

"You go back and tell Zhang Yuan, with me Zhang He, he doesn't want to capture Ancheng, and wants to lure me to surrender, it's even more a dream!" Zhang He drank proudly and repelled the envoy of the Zhou army.

Ma Yan nodded again and again, and said, "Then this letter, should you give it to the third prince for review." ”

Zhang He opened his mouth and wanted to agree, but when the words came to his mouth, he waved his hand and said: "Forget it, the third prince has always been suspicious like the lord, and giving him this letter will cause him to be suspicious of no reason, as if this incident had not happened." ”

Zhang Hesui disappreciated the letter and handed it to his own soldiers and continued to inspect the city defense.

Closing the departing figure, Ma Delay doubted Zhang Jiu, thought repeatedly, quietly went down to the city, and went straight to the county government.

……

After inspecting the city defense, it was nightfall, Zhang He returned to his big tent, and before he had time to eat a hot meal, the soldiers outside the door came to report, saying that the third prince Yuan Shang had arrived.

"It's so late, what is the third son doing?" Zhang He muttered in his heart, but put down the dishes and chopsticks, and immediately got up to greet him.

Without waiting for Zhang He to come out of the account, Yuan Shang had already strode in.

Zhang He hurriedly greeted him, invited Yuan Shang to take a seat, and asked Yuan Shang what was important when he came so late.

Yuan Shang was idle, his attitude was quite relaxed, and he first asked about the defense of Song City, and then suddenly changed his words and said: "My son heard by chance that Zhang Yuan actually sent a messenger to see General Zhang today, but is there such a thing?" ”

Zhang He's brows furrowed, and he knew that someone had leaked the news and made a small report to Yuan Shang.

"Zhang Yuan did send someone and wrote a letter, but he just wanted to recruit the last general, I flatly refused on the spot, and I thought it was not a big deal, so I didn't report it to the third son, and asked the third son to forgive me." Zhang He immediately told the truth and didn't dare to hide anything.

Yuan Shang listened quietly, but there was doubt between his eyebrows, and he smiled slightly, "Since that's the case, I don't know where Zhang Yuan's letter is, can you let me." ”

Zhang He's originally indifferent expression suddenly swept a trace of gloom.

Yuan Shang asked for a letter and Guan Ming did not believe him.

Yuan Shang was suspicious of him, suspected that he, a Hebei general, and suspected the sincerity of their Yuan family, and that the letter was evidence of his secret communication with Zhang Yuan.

Thinking of him Zhang He, since Yuan Shao took Jizhou, he has been obedient, for many years, he has worked hard for the Yuan family, and he asked himself to be the general of the Yuan family.

Yuan Shang's suspicion was tantamount to a humiliation of his Yicheng, how could he not be angry.

"Third son, is it difficult, do you suspect that I Zhang He secretly communicated with Zhang Yuan, and I want to rebel?" Zhang He asked rhetorically with a calm face, but did not hand over the letter.

"General Zhang, don't get me wrong." Yuan Shang smiled, "General Zhang's suitability to my Yuan family, I, Yuan Shang, have never doubted it, but now the soldiers all know that Zhang Yuan sent a private secret letter to General Zhang, and there are already suspicions in the army, but I am afraid that it will cause the army to feel uneasy. ”

Yuan Shang's excuse was high-sounding, focusing on the morale of the army, and he also took the initiative to clarify his innocence, so that Zhang He really had no way to refuse.

Zhang Hunai is a martial artist, this game of words, naturally can't play a noble son like Yuan Shang, who is full of poetry and books, he is angry in his heart, has a calm face, and does not answer for a long time.

Seeing Zhang Hecun's hesitation, Yuan Shang's face also became gloomy, and he said unhappily: "It's just for me to write a letter, what's the big deal, since General Zhang has a clear conscience, he must be so hesitant." ”

Zhang He secretly gritted his teeth, but he had no choice but to be Zhong, after all, he was the third son, and he pressed on his head, even if he clearly didn't believe you, he could be like Zhong.

Zhang He asked for a letter from his own soldiers, threw it on the case, and said coldly: "The third son, please." ”

After saying that, Zhang He turned around angrily and stood with his hands in his hands, disdainful

Zhang He's attitude made Yuan Shang frown slightly, but he didn't attack, only picked up the letter from the case, opened it and read it carefully, and read it over and over again.

As Zhang He said, there was nothing suspicious in the letter, it was just some words of surrender from Zhang Yuan.

The suspicion on Yuan Shang's face gradually disappeared, and he said with a smile: "There is nothing suspicious about this letter at all, and the discussion of those boring people can also be ......."

Just when Yuan Shang was about to close the letter, suddenly, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and he opened the letter again.

He found something suspicious.

"General Zhang, why did you erase these places in the letter, and what was written in them?" Yuan Shang's tone immediately became gloomy again.

Zhang He glanced at the letter and said disapprerovitically: "How do I know that these smudges were originally there, and Zhang Yuan wrote them by mistake and erased them casually." ”

"Wipe it off?" Yuan Shang snorted coldly, and the suspicion on his face became even heavier, "Zhang Yuan wants to recruit General Zhang, and the letter is extremely appreciative of General Zhang, but he smears it like this in the letter, which is obviously disrespectful to the general, with Zhang Yuan's treachery, would he make such a mistake?" ”

"How do I know, that's what the letter says anyway." Zhang He was a little anxious, and said to the deputy general Ma Yan: "General Ma, you also tell the third prince about this letter, are those smears original?" ”

"This ......" Ma Yan scratched his scalp and thought for a while, and said with a bitter face: "The last general of that letter only glanced at it a few times, and as for whether there were or didn't have these smears, the last general really didn't pay attention to it." ”

"Ma Yan, you-" Zhang He's face turned red, and suddenly he had a feeling of being at a loss, and he didn't know how to explain for a while.

Yuan Shang didn't speak, just sneered.

Although Yuan Shang did not say it explicitly, the implication was already clear, he clearly suspected that Zhang He and Zhang Yuan were secretly communicating, and there were secret words in the letter, and the place where it was smeared was the key.

Zhang He, who was forced to be anxious, was finally enraged, and said sharply: "The letter is like this, I, Zhang He, can swear to the sky, I have never scribbled a word, and it is impossible to have any collusion with Zhang Yuan, believe it or not." ”
