Chapter 42 Wang Yun
"Yes." Zhang Chao, who was following behind, agreed.
"Also, the matter of you becoming a general has been decided, whether you can become a county guard this time depends on your creation."
"I understand, I have prepared a heavy gift for Lord Zhang Rang, and I don't know if one million taels of silver is enough." Zhang Chao said tentatively.
"Oh, that should be almost." Hearing that such a generous gift money was prepared, Zuo Feng nodded emphatically. At the same time, he glanced back at Zhang Chao, he didn't expect this kid to be so rich, is it really such a big profit to sell wine?
Zuo Feng naturally didn't know that all this money came from Bocai to plunder the people, but he was taken by Zhang Chao and borrowed flowers to offer the Buddha to himself.
It didn't take long to follow Zuo Feng to a palace. "Okay, this is it, remember to talk less and listen more, understand?"
"Don't worry." Zhang Chao nodded, and strode into the palace.
Zhang Rang is known for his looting, arrogance and greed, and he must have enough money to open the way. Zhang Chao, who came with a lot of money this time, is confident.
There were several guards in a row, but these people were as if they hadn't seen Zhang Chao after seeing them, so it could be seen that they had received orders before.
After passing through a few inner doors, he finally came to a slightly darkened room, where Zhang Chao stopped moving forward, and he saw a man in a brocade eunuch with his back to him.
The eunuch's unique, neither male nor female, yin and yang weird tone, the shrill voice sounded, "Is it Zhang Chao from Chen Liu?" ”
Compared with Zuo Feng's voice, Zhang Rangzhi's voice made people feel cold on the top of their heads, their scalps were numb, and goosebumps all over their bodies suddenly rose. He really didn't know how Emperor Han Ling could endure such a voice in ordinary times.
When Zhang Chao still felt a little uncomfortable, Zhang Rang's voice had already sounded: "Well, our family has heard of you, and we know that you have military merits in the battle of Changshe, and you have always respected filial piety and virtue, and you are quite literate, so this time I recommended you to the emperor and let Er lead the post of General Kou." ”
"Thank you, sir." Zhang Chao expressed his attitude at the right time.
"Thank you for not needing, this time you also spent money, this is what you deserve. That's it, if you want to be too guarded by any party, Zuo Feng has already told me, and I will find a way to make this happen, you just stay in Luoyang City these days, don't just meet casually, understand? Zhang Rang reminded knowingly.
Zhang Chao knew what these words meant. He had long heard that many people came to the capital to run for officials, and often Zhang Rang was the first place, followed by the general He Jin. It's because they're worried that they're going to step on two boats. The "Ten Standing Servants" and the representatives of the generals He Jin, the Yuan clan and other scholars are on the same page, and they naturally hate them deeply!
"The last general understands, please rest assured, I will not walk around. Zhang Chao also replied in code.
The meeting with Zhang Rang was very short, and even only at the end, Zhang Chao could see the other party's face clearly, this is a man with a somewhat feminine appearance.
After getting out of the palace, Zhang Chao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He didn't expect that the meeting with Zhang Rang would put him under so much pressure, let alone that he didn't even have to see the emperor this time, and seeing Zhang Rang was a great success.
Zhang Chao, who had never thought about having too much communication with Emperor Han Ling and the Ten Standing Attendants, was unwanted.
According to the trend of history, in a few years, Emperor Ling of Han died, and then the ten permanent servants were killed, and it was useless to have too many intersections with these people, but they would be criticized by others.
After leaving the palace, I saw Zhao Yun and Tai Shici waiting for me here outside the east gate.
As soon as they saw Zhang Chao coming, the two hurriedly greeted him, and then Zhao Yun whispered in his ear, "Second son, Wang De sent someone just now, saying that he had something to report to you. ”
"Well, go back." Zhang Chao nodded. Even if it is Wang Dexun himself, there should be something urgent, otherwise he would not know that he came to the palace, and he would have sent someone to chase after him and say it again.
A group of people hurriedly returned to Yuelaiju, and after going upstairs, they saw that Wang De was already waiting here, and after seeing Zhang Chao appear, he hurriedly said: "Second son, something very tense happened in the capital, I think this news may be useful for Gongzi." ”
"Well, come into the room." Zhang Chao nodded, opened the door and entered, leaving Zhao Yun and Tai Shici to stay outside.
According to the rules, the only person who needs to be responsible for the Tianyan Organization is Zhang Chao, unless he nams this matter to anyone, otherwise, even Zhao Yun can't detect the Tianyan thing, which is a big taboo.
This is also the power that Zhang Chao needs to control alone, and as a lord, he must learn to control it, so that they can feel that they can rely on it and be afraid at the same time. The existence of the eye of heaven can play such a role.
In the room, Wang De recounted the information he had just heard from the palace.
This is the news obtained from the mouth of a little eunuch who bought it with a lot of money, and Wang Yun, the assassin of Yuzhou, is about to be a catastrophe because he offended Zhang Rang.
Wang Yunzi was a native of Qi County, Taiyuan (now Qi County, Shanxi).
In 184, Wang Yun and Huang Fu Song, the general of Zuo Zhonglang, and Zhu Jun, the general of Zhu Jun, jointly surrendered hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban rebels.
In the process of surrendering, the careful Wang Yun searched the peasant army for a letter written by a guest who was always serving Zhang Rang, which involved some content related to the Yellow Turban Army.
Wang Yun didn't care about the stakes, he suspected that Zhang Rang was having an affair with the Yellow Turban Army, so he further investigated, exposed all the specific details, and wrote it as a song to play the emperor.
When he replied to the emperor, not only did he not admit his crime, but said that Wang Yun was jealous and framed him, saying that he was loyal to His Majesty and the imperial court, and did not have the slightest intention of fornicating with the Yellow Turban Army and betraying the imperial court. Emperor Ling was originally deliberately biased in favor of Zhang Rang, and was confused by Zhang Rang's rhetoric, thinking that he was innocent, so he no longer pursued it.
Emperor Ling is no longer pursuing Zhang Rang, so Wang Yun, who is going to fold up, will be unlucky, there is news in the palace, there is a will to pass him back to Beijing, I am afraid that after returning, it will be more auspicious.
Zhang Chao didn't know much about Wang Yun, and he didn't know much about his history, but he did know that when Dong Zhuo entered Beijing and seized power, he had been in a high position as Situ. In this way, this person should not be so short-lived, and this thing should not be difficult for him.
In fact, Zhang Rang once sent Wang Yun to prison twice for this matter, which made him go through a very painful period of time.
Zhang Chao didn't pay attention to Wang Yun, and he didn't care what he wanted to help him, and this person was not among the talents he was recruiting. But this person does have a very key figure under him, that is, Diao Chan, one of the four beauties of ancient times.
The beauty of Diao Chan has been praised by others, although Zhang Chao has not seen him until now, but he really thought that this must be a very beautiful beauty. And this person is from Wang Yun's mansion.
Diao Chan is also one of the two beauties that Zhang Chao is looking for when he enters Luoyang this time. First, Cai Yan's affairs have been decided, and he can marry when the time is ripe, but he really doesn't know where this Diao Chan is now. The members of the Sky Eye were sent to investigate, but there was no whereabouts of them.
This made Zhang Chao guess that Diao Chan may not be his real name, and this person should have another name, but unfortunately he doesn't know it.
However, Diao Chan can't find it, and it can indeed be found through Wang Yun, and now that this person has news, it is not far from the ultimate goal.
"Okay, send someone to keep an eye on Wang Yun, and once he enters Luoyang City, he will notify me immediately. Also, make arrangements, I want to see Zuo Feng again. Zhang Chao decided to operate it and let Wang Yun owe him a favor, so that he could find out the true whereabouts of Diao Chan.
After Wang De received the order, he left.
It didn't take long for Zuo Feng to come to Yuelaiju.
Zuo Feng can come here, not Zhang Chao to visit, to put it bluntly, it is still silver that plays a role. For such a big customer who is willing to honor himself, he naturally doesn't want to lose contact.
Zuo Feng came, Zhang Chao invited him upstairs with a very respectful look, and in his room, he said that he wanted to help Wang Yun.
"General Zhang, our family is here to give you face, but are your requests too much? This time Wang Yun offended his father (eunuchs, including Emperor Ling, all called Zhang Rang like this), what do you say I can do? Well, that's it, just when I didn't come, when I didn't hear these words. ”
When he understood what Zhang Chao meant, Zuo Feng was displeased, and after speaking, he got up, looking like he was leaving.
"Slow down, adult." Zhang Chao did stretch out his arms to stop Zuo Feng.
Seeing that Zhang Chao dared to stop him, Zuo Feng immediately said angrily: "Oh? Is General Zhang trying to be unfavorable to our family? ”
"How dare you, how dare you, Ben will just have a few words to say. I just want the adults to listen to it, and if they feel that it still doesn't make sense, it's not too late to leave. Zhang Chao had a smile on his face, but in and out of his words, he did not flinch at all.
Zuo Feng has seen the majesty of the guards around Zhang Chao, and knows that if the other party really wants to be unfavorable to him, he is afraid that it will be really difficult to deal with. Not wanting to make things stiff, he snorted and sat down in the guest chair again.
"Huh." Zhang Chao smiled at first, and after seeing that Zuo Feng had completely sat down, he said slowly: "My lord, I have a lot of relationship with Wang Tingshi, and it is not an exaggeration to say that I am a good friend. It's like me and adults, and I hate to see each other late. Now that he is in trouble, how can he stand by as a good friend? If one day, the adults are in trouble, the last general will know that he will not ignore it. Therefore, please be an adult. ”
