Chapter 23 Zhang Rang Sends Silver

Bang Bang!

In the inner hall of Zhang's mansion, Zhang Rang, who looked like a dwarf winter melon, jumped like thunder, swept all the utensils on the desk to the ground, and his gloomy little eyes stared fiercely at two or three forbidden soldiers kneeling in front of him.

He didn't expect Jian Shuo to mess things up, and let the forbidden army with four or five hundred people be defeated by dozens of peasant volunteers in the volunteer barracks, and Jian Shuo also fell into their hands, how can Zhang Rang not be angry?

Now they have caught their own handles, and they dare to ask themselves for 150,000 taels of silver, which is really hateful! Who are you? is the emperor's most favored chamberlain today, even if the emperor has to call himself a father in private, he is just a volunteer born in a peasant, and he dares to blackmail himself? Are they living impatiently?

Zhang Rang, who was on the verge of going berserk, almost couldn't help but go into the palace and send another team of forbidden soldiers to destroy those hateful volunteers, even the useless Jian Shuo was also wiped out, and he claimed to be an invincible master of the forbidden army, and he couldn't even kill dozens of volunteers, so useless people, what was the use of keeping him?

However, Zhang Rang can't! He thought about it and found that he really had no way to take these volunteers, at least for the time being.

The reason why he sent Jian Shuo to kill the volunteer in the volunteer camp was because Zhang made him unable to swallow that breath. He hates Liu Bei and Zhang Jun! If it weren't for Liu Bei, would Zhang Jun know that the volunteers were making trouble behind their backs because they didn't have a reward? Because of this incident, Zhang Jun, an old horseman, actually beheaded himself to the emperor, in the court, who dared to want his life so straightforwardly? Who dares to say half of their own in front of the emperor? There are only a few old horsemen such as Zhang Jun, so these people are not dead, and they are restless.

Because of this incident, Zhang Rang was always thinking of ways to put Zhang Jun and other court officials who disagreed with him to death. However, although the emperor is poor and extravagant, he is not really confused, and some loyal and upright officials, the emperor does not like them too much, but he also knows that these loyal and upright officials can do practical things and cannot be executed casually. Because of this, the emperor only drove Zhang Jun out of the court at that time, and did not impose any more punishments.

In this way, Zhang Rang had no way to take Zhang Jun and others for a while, so Zhang Rang thought of rectifying Liu Bei. And Liu Bei has already been sealed as a county official and left Luoyang, and it is not enough to rectify it in a moment and a half, so Liu Yi and other volunteers have become the objects of Zhang Rang's anger venting.

These are Liu Bei's soldiers, didn't Zhang Jun want to get a reward for them? Then I will start with them and kill them all first, so that Zhang Jun and the others can feel heartache, especially so that they can demonstrate to Zhang Jun and others, and let them know what will happen if they offend me Zhang Rang.

To tell the truth, in order to help Liu Bei ask the emperor for a reward, Zhang Jun killed Zhang Rang and other ten permanent servants, and indeed formed an indissoluble life-and-death feud with Zhang Rang and others, Zhang Rang and others naturally held a grudge and were always ready to retaliate. Liu Yi and others are just victims of Zhang Rang's revenge.

There are 50,000 people in the forbidden army, and Jian Shuo is the commander of the forbidden army and a close confidant of Zhang Rang. It is said that Zhang Rang can mobilize more forbidden troops to destroy Liu Yi and others. But Zhang Rang still can't do it, don't look at the 50,000 people of the forbidden army, on the surface, they are in Zhang Rang's hands, but in fact this is not the case.

The duty of the forbidden army is to protect the emperor and the safety of the palace, in fact, not all the forbidden army can be mobilized casually by Zhang Rang. In the forbidden army, there are actually many factions, except for the emperor, no one can mobilize the whole army. Only the emperor has the military order to directly mobilize the forbidden army, and all the forbidden troops must directly obey the emperor's orders.

No matter who it is, as long as there is a little bit of real power, whether it is a eunuch, a relative, a powerful official, even if it is a queen concubine in the palace, they will try their best to install some cronies into the forbidden army.

Zhang Rang mobilized Jian Shuo's forbidden army to kill Liu Bei's righteous army to demonstrate to Zhang Jun, these soldiers and horses are actually just forbidden troops that Zhang Rang can completely control, and send them out to do some private affairs, so as not to leak the news. If he wants to mobilize other forbidden troops that he can't fully control now, the court officials and ministers who have a grudge against him will soon know about their actions, and what Jian Shuo and the others have done will no longer be able to hide it.

This matter is indeed big or small, if the people who are with him know about it, I'm afraid they won't put themselves to death? At that time, in the face of the impeachment of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military, Zhang Rang was not sure whether the emperor could save his life. What's even more worrying is that once this matter breaks out, in the end, even if the emperor listens to him, does not dispose of himself, and saves his life, this position of power will be greatly weakened, and it will definitely not be as windy and rainy as it is now. ,

Even if it is a few guys in the ten permanent servants, Zhang Rang has to be on guard, his intimate relationship with the emperor, other permanent servants must be a little jealous, and when the time comes, I am afraid that even they will fall into the well, then things will be even worse.

Besides, these forbidden soldiers came back and reported that the girl of Princess Wannian was also in the barracks, and she seemed to be very familiar with Liu Bei's volunteers.

We can't let them spread the word about it! Zhang Rang touched his heart very painfully, and finally made a decision. However, thinking of 150,000 taels of white silver, and having to send it out obediently, my heart hurt so much that I couldn't breathe.

"Someone! Prepare the carriage! Zhang Rang looked at the sky outside, there was still an hour or two before sunset, and if he was in a daze, he was afraid that it would be too late, so he had to scream reluctantly.

A piece of silver is ten taels, a box contains a hundred yuan, and 150,000 taels are enough to fill 150 boxes, which is also due to Zhang Rang's usual use of boxes to hide the silver in the cellar, otherwise, it is really too late.

Pulled by seven carriages, Zhang let himself sit in a very comfortable pet carriage, and under the escort of hundreds of pro-soldiers, the group slowly went out of the city.

Zhang Rang had to go to the camp of the righteous army to negotiate in person, because he was afraid that after paying the silver taels, those volunteers would harm him, so he had to negotiate terms with them and keep it a secret forever.

Of course, keeping secrets forever would best kill those volunteers, but because of the presence of Princess Wannian, Zhang Rang had no choice but to temporarily suppress the heart of killing those volunteers.

Moreover, Zhang Rang came in person, and his purpose was to see these volunteers who dared to blackmail him, so that he could remember them all and retaliate in the future. Also, Zhang Rang was also a little curious in his heart, because they had always thought that the leaders of the rebel army had been transferred out of Luoyang, how could anyone still organize those rebels? It's just a few dozen volunteers, if it weren't for someone organizing these volunteers, would they be able to fight against hundreds of forbidden troops?

Zhang Rang wanted to calm things down and spend 150,000 taels of silver to solve this trouble, but Liu Yi was still sure that Zhang Rang would send 150,000 taels of silver.

But even Liu Yi didn't expect that Zhang Rang would personally send Yin Liang to come, and when Zhang Rang's personal soldiers came into the camp to ask everyone to go out to meet Zhang Rang, Liu Yi couldn't help but smile a little dumbly. Ya, it's just a matter of sending money to Lao Tzu, and you still want to pose in front of yourself? If you don't play tricks, just give the silver obediently, and if you dare to play tricks, Liu Yi doesn't mind catching Zhang Rang.
