Chapter XXVIII
Zhang Shao snorted, closed the curtain of the carriage window, separated Liu Yi's burning gaze, took a deep breath carefully, and warned himself not to pretend to this little soldier, this guy is very dangerous.
"Uh, okay, I won't tease you, hehe, my face is so thin, no wonder I have to cover my face, I guess you must be blushing now, just say anything serious." Liu Yi knew that he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so he didn't tease Zhang Shao with words.
"Who, who blushed? It's not that you're not serious! Is there anyone like you? Even those prodigal sons will not be like you, who have no respect for others at all. Zhang Shao heard that although Liu Yi said that he didn't tease himself, what he said made him really blush, and he couldn't help but take a sip.
"Slender lady, gentleman, I think Miss should also be in her youth, and she is not much older than me Liu Yi, so I was attracted to you, I looked at you a few more times, and I didn't do anything, this is also not in shape?" Liu Yi followed the carriage slowly and smiled.
Zhang Shao snorted and said, "Tsk, what kind of gentleman is good?" Are you a soldier who wants to learn from other people's poetry? Okay, let's get down to business, don't look like a hippie hooligan. β
"I have almost run all over the volunteer barracks around Luoyang in the past few days, and found that the situation in most of the rebel barracks is similar to yours, and the leaders who brought them out have gone to other places to take up their posts, and some of them have no one to take care of the seriously wounded soldiers, and the situation is even worse than that of your barracks, and I heard that some of the volunteers in the barracks have no money to eat." Zhang Shao didn't give Liu Yi a chance to say anything more, and quickly said his thoughts: "I go to this barracks every day to treat one, and it is not very convenient to treat one in that barracks, including lightly injured volunteers, there are about a few hundred people in total, so I want to gather them all." β
"Oh? Do this, put them together in one barracks, so you don't have to run around and you don't have to be so tired. Liu Yi replied casually.
"The barracks can't stay any longer, and now almost every day there are officers and soldiers who ask the volunteers to quickly dismantle the barracks and leave...... Hey? Zhang Shao said this, as if he had thought of something, and unconsciously lowered his voice a little, as if he was muttering to himself: "It's strange, other volunteers haven't encountered anything like killing good and risking merit." β
"Hehe, there's nothing strange about this, didn't you also see how I got 150,000 silver from Zhang Rang? In fact, this is what Zhang Rang deliberately wanted to kill us volunteers. The reason is that it has something to do with your father, understand? Liu Yi heard Zhang Shao's whispered words, and explained to her: "Your father, Zhang Jun, once told the emperor that he wanted to kill Zhang Rang and other ten permanent servants, of course they have a grudge. β
"Oh, I understand, my father went to the emperor to impeach Zhang Rang because he was angry because he listened to Liu Bei's self-reported exploits, so Zhang Rang hated you too." After Liu Yi mentioned this, Zhang Shao suddenly figured out the twists and turns, and suddenly realized the way.
"Well, we are Liu Bei's subordinates, and it's not surprising that Zhang Rang wants to cut us." Liu Yi saw that Zhang Shao had understood these things, so he asked her, "Then what are you going to do?" It was only a matter of time before the volunteers were kicked out of the barracks, and it would be a little difficult to get these hundreds of wounded soldiers together. β
"There is no difficulty in placing these hundreds of wounded soldiers, I told my father my idea, and my father also praised me for this very good idea, and personally went to find a place to set up a military camp, and sent people to send the volunteers together, it is estimated that all the volunteers can be gathered in two days."
"Alas, I really admire you and your father's character, enthusiastic for the people, dedicated to doing things, there are not many kind-hearted people like you, especially your father, who is so upright, there are such good officials in the court, in fact, it is the blessing of the Han people." Liu Yi praised from the bottom of his heart and said, "Then say it, if there is anything you need my help with, just say it." β
"You won the award, my father and I can't bear to watch those volunteers die in vain because they didn't get treatment." Zhang Shao's tone looked a little embarrassed to accept Liu Yi's praise, and he said modestly: "The seriously injured volunteer must ask you to help heal, you won't refuse, right?" β
"Of course, this is better than obeying fate, you and Lord Langzhong have done so much for the volunteers, you don't need to say it, I will also treat it." Although Liu Yi felt sorry for his true anger, he would not refuse this request that he had no way to refuse. ,
"Whew...... Well, that's the best, I don't want my father to scatter his wealth and take in these volunteers, and in the end he won't be cured. Zhang Shao exhaled, as if relieved.
"What? Did your father scatter all his wealth to contain those volunteers? Liu Yi was taken aback, and lifted the curtain of the carriage.
"Huh? Any questions? Those volunteers have no money to treat their injuries and have no money to eat, hundreds of people have to eat hundreds of pounds of food a day, and my father spent all the money to buy enough rations for the volunteers for a month. Zhang Shao was surprised by Liu Yi's shocked appearance, and said with a little worried look: "I hope these volunteers can get better within a month, and they will be separated after the New Year, otherwise, they will be really in trouble, and my father will be worried about their affairs......
"You, your father really lost all his wealth? Even if you buy a month's rations for those volunteers, it's just a few hundred silver, right? Liu Yi couldn't help but be surprised by Zhang Jun's honesty and integrity, a court official, with a net worth of only a few hundred silver taels?
However, what Liu Yi was even more surprised about was not these, but Liu Yi remembered that Zhang Jun seemed to be seized by Zhang Rang to make a fuss about this matter because he had scattered his family wealth to fund military expenses, and accused Zhang Jun of raising private soldiers, and was a fellow party of the Yellow Turbans with bad intentions, and took Zhang Jun to death in prison. Now, since Zhang Jun has done this, it is estimated that the disaster will soon befall him.
If Liu Yi had just arrived in this era, he wouldn't have cared too much about this matter, but Zhang Jun is Zhang Shao's father, if something happens to Zhang Jun, what will Zhang Shao do? I guess she's going to die of sadness.
Liu Yi has a very good impression of Zhang Shao, such a good-hearted woman, although he couldn't see her true appearance, Liu Yi didn't want to see her sad. I couldn't help but use my brain to think about how to prevent Zhang Jun from being killed by Zhang Rang.
"Oh, what are you doing here? Isn't it strange that we only have such a small amount of silver in our house? My father will take out a lot of silver every year to help others, and my father also said that the money is enough, and there is no need to save too much, so this time I can take out a few hundred taels of silver at a time, and I can only save it for a few months. Do you think our family will be like the family of those big corrupt officials, who can come up with tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of silver? Zhang Shao was not very satisfied with Liu Yi's expression, and from under the white veil, he could vaguely see the outline of a small mouth that pouted.
"Uh, do many people know about your father's shelter of the volunteers?" Liu Yi ignored Zhang Shao's dissatisfied tone, and asked worriedly.
"There must be a lot of people who know about it, this is a good deed, how can no one know?"
"Well, that's a bad thing." Liu Yi patted his head, his eyes were dark, and he looked at Zhang Shao tightly and said: "You rush home now, tell your father, and ask your father to stop relieving the volunteers immediately, let him stop meddling in these things, and leave them to me to deal with, otherwise, your father will have a disaster." β
"What? Woe? W-What kind of misfortune will this have? Zhang Shao saw that Liu Yi's face changed suddenly, and her face was solemn, which made her feel a little nervous.
"Don't ask so much." Liu Yi waved his hand, thought about it and said: "By the way, I will give you a few hundred taels of silver to bring back to your father, and then let your father tell the public that he borrowed money to buy me military rations to help the volunteers, and your family did not directly go to contain the volunteers, understand?" β
"I don't understand!" Zhang Shao shook his head and said puzzledly: "I don't understand, we just use our own money to help people in need, how can there be disasters?" β
"Oh, youβwhat are you going me to say?" Liu Yi saw that Zhang Shao had not yet realized the severity of the situation, and couldn't help but say a little angrily: "Your father and the traitors in the court are incompatible, and now your father is sheltering hundreds of wounded soldiers, and the wounded soldiers are also soldiers, those traitors don't care about these, hundreds of soldiers, this is already a private soldier, in case they frame your father with this incident, it will be a catastrophe, and no one will be able to save your father at that time, understand?" Why don't you go back soon? β
"Huh? How can things still be like this? Listening to Liu Yi's angry explanation, Zhang Shao realized the problem here, and his eyes couldn't help but be a little flustered.
Liu Yi didn't say anything to Zhang Shao anymore, called a volunteer soldier, asked him to take a few hundred taels of silver, threw it into Zhang Shao's carriage, and asked Zhang Shao to hurry back and tell his father how to deal with the possible false accusations.
