Chapter 371: It's hard to tell the truth from the fake

Shi Nai'an returned to the Chinese army, and the mud on his body was like a body of scale armor for him, he scratched his head embarrassedly, and said with a smile: "The minister was a little out of control for a while, so I laughed at the pen!" ”

"Lord Shangshu's meritorious rescue is the expression of his true temperament, what is there to laugh at?" Hao Ren took off his cloak and put it on Shi Nai'an's body, and said: "My lord is old, be careful of catching a cold, go down and wash it, and change into clean clothes, I'm afraid that the generals who have reported their merits will come back soon!" ”

While he was talking, several teams of small boats came through the waves, and the generals of each team were all in good spirits. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Zhang Poyu pushed out one person first, the man covered his chest, and Zhang Poyu said with a radiant look: "Boss, Zhang Dingbian was arrested by me!" ”

Yang Shu carried a person and said: "The last general has also arrested Zhang Dingbian, and I also ask the lord to distinguish the truth from the fake!" ”

Zhang Poyu and Yang informed the two of them, both claiming that they had caught the real Zhang Dingbian, and the two were eager to fight for merit and couldn't help but argue.

Shi Nai'an was about to go down to change his clothes, but he also caught Zhang Dingbian himself, he didn't want to miss the follow-up result, so he simply pulled Hao Ren's white cloak forward, covering his lower body, laughing without saying a word, just watching the two argue.

Zhang Poyu and Yang Zhizheng were arguing, and another team of boats came over, and Yu Tonghe carried a head, claiming that he had killed Zhang Dingbian in front of the battle.

The servants each claimed that they had met the real Zhang Dingbian, accusing each other and arguing, and the atmosphere was extremely lively.

"Generals, don't argue yet, see who this is?" The three Zhang Dingbian before Hao Ren met were no different from those he met, and it was difficult to distinguish right from wrong for a while.

Zhang Dingbian, who Shi Nai'an captured alive, was tied to the side like a clay man at this time, he had collapsed after struggling, the guards brought water, touched the mud on Zhang Dingbian's face, and the three generals who invited merit exclaimed in unison: "Zhang Dingbian!" ”

"Boss!" The monkey Zhang Poyu was puzzled: "No...... This...... We met Zhang Dingbian in front of the military formation, where did this Zhang Dingbian come from? ”

The generals rushed desperately in front of him, but he got a fake Zhang Dingbian, and Shi Nai'an was firmly in the middle army, although he received an old punch, but he also caught a Zhang Dingbian, he was quite proud in his heart, and said with a smile: "People have to be lucky, standing on the shore big fish jump into their arms!" This Zhang Dingbian, naturally, I caught it! ”

"Who is this lord?" Shi Nai'an used the rivers and lakes to fight Zhang Dingbian, and the scolding with a blasting sound had already shouted hoarsely, but now his clothes were so indecent that even Zhang Poyu, who had always been close to him, didn't recognize it.

"I'm Shi Nai'an, and General Po doesn't even recognize the old man!" Shi Nai'an said solemnly.

"Haha!" Zhang Poyu smiled: "Don't joke, old man, I'm waiting to fight desperately on the battlefield, is it all fake?" And Zhang Dingbian personally sent himself over for the old gentleman to arrest? ”

Liu Bowen's frightened numb hands and feet have eased up at this time, and explained Zhang Dingbian's desperate things one by one, as for Hao Ren's disadvantage on the bamboo raft, as well as Shi Nai'an's being knocked into the water, and Shi Nai'an pulling Zhang Dingbian into the water, all omitted, only saying that Hao Ren knocked Zhang Dingbian into the water on the big boat, and Shi Nai'an bravely dived to capture Zhang Dingbian, and put a thick layer of rouge on the skin of Hao Ren and Shi Nai'an.

After hearing this, all the generals were shocked, and the work of certifying Zhang Dingbian officially began.

"How many of you, which one is really Zhang Dingbian?" Zhang Poyu said angrily.

"I am!"

"I am!"

"I am!"

The three Zhang Dingbian are all the same.

"Huh? That's not right! Yu Tonghe objected, raised the head in his hand and said, "Can you still let this dead Zhang Dingbian speak?" Could it be that Zhang Dingbian who I killed was directly listed as fake? ”

"Brush" sound, Zhang Poyu pulled out his waist knife and put it on the neck of Zhang Da who was captured by his confidant, Zhang Da was forced to have no choice but to explain the situation of the five Zhang brothers and the two stand-ins, and the person killed by Yu Tonghe was just a stand-in Zhang Yi.

"Now that there are four people here, what about two less? Tell me, where are the other two? Zhang Poyu said angrily again.

"You killed a Zhang San a few days ago!" Zhang Dadao.

"What about the other one?" Zhang Poyu asked.

"Report!" A sentinel boat sailed from afar, "Report to Your Majesty, Zhang Dingbian led people to escape from the west, when General Yu Tongyuan was chasing, Zhang Dingbian had already entered the Yangtze River to board the big ship, General Yu couldn't catch up, and sent his subordinates to report!" ”

More brothers means more benefits.

The Song army was so dense that they actually let Zhang Dingbian run out. When the three Zhang Dingbian heard that their brothers ran out of one of them, they laughed in unison, and when they spoke again, they all agreed that they were Zhang Dingbian.

The three of them spoke in unison, and it was difficult for the Great Song monarchs and ministers to tell which one was true or false.

Several of the main generals who captured the enemy, Yu Tonghe had already been killed, Yu Tonghe acquiesced that what he killed was fake, Yang Zhi, Zhang Poyu, and Shi Nai'an, all insisted that Zhang Dingbian was in their hands, and they all thought that confidants should take the lead.

In fact, Hao Ren is more inclined to fight with him, and it is the real Zhang Dingbian.

However, there are too many masters in the world, Zhang Dingbian, who has been out of battle several times, except for the three who were killed, is not weak, Hao Ren can't be determined that the one captured alive by Shi Nai'an is the real Zhang Dingbian just because he has fought with him, and the three Zhang Dingbian can't rule out the possibility that it is really Zhang Dingbian.

"Even if Zhang Dingbian is really caught, the Zhang Dingbian who ran away can also gather troops and horses as a captain and catch these three, which is not very meaningful!" Hao Ren said helplessly.

"Your Majesty!" Shi Nai'an came out of the class and hugged his fists and said: "Several generals were greedy for merit and came to ask for merit in front of His Majesty when the war was not over, causing Zhang Dingbian to escape, and the ministers asked the three generals to be dealt with in accordance with the criminal law!" ”

Shi Nai'an failed to fight for merit, so he wanted to use the power in his hands to punish the generals who fought with him, he himself was the secretary of the criminal department, if he was dealt with in accordance with the criminal law, he would naturally hand over the three generals to Shi Nai'an for disposal.

Zhang Poyu quickly came to make friends with Shi Nai'an, and seeing that Shi Nai'an wanted to retaliate, he complained: "Old man, isn't it? I admit that I caught a fake, but it's okay if you caught it! ”

Hao Ren said: "Then according to Shi Shangshu's opinion, how should the three generals be handled?" ”

"If the enemy flees for merit, he should be beheaded according to the law. Thinking that the enemy is scheming, and everyone has not seen through it, it will be forgotten if you hit a twenty military stick! "Shi Nai'an is bent on beating three generals who compete with him for your merits.

"Shi Nai'an, you-" Zhang Poyu didn't expect Shi Nai'an to be so cautious, and pointed at Shi Nai'an's nose and said.

"Your Majesty, the last general will be guilty and willing to be punished!" Yang Zhishu and Yu Tonghe didn't even know how to play Shi Nai'an by themselves, so they simply accepted their fate and directly asked Hao Ren for their guilt, Zhang Poyu saw that he couldn't fight Shi Nai'an, as long as he had no choice but to hold his fists and said: "The minister also accepts the guilt!" ”

"Even if he runs away from one Zhang Dingbian, there is only one of his seven lives left, and the three generals are also meritorious in my opinion, Lord Shangshu, do you think this can be accommodating?" Hao Ren did not directly use his imperial power to issue orders, but from the perspective of respecting the laws of the Criminal Department, he led the generals to intercede with Shi Nai'an.

"Since Your Majesty said so, how dare the Criminal Department not give Your Majesty face, several generals, and still thank Your Majesty!" Shi Nai'an said in a strange manner: "However, Chen Da, the head of the guards, is greedy for merit and takes away the elite of the guards, causing His Majesty to fall into danger, Chen Da's twenty military sticks are inevitable!" ”
