Chapter 160 Intimidate Zhang Yuan

Xu Shu left the governor's mansion first, and he wanted to prepare for the army's deportation. Lu Su stayed and continued to discuss the issues with Chen Chu about the Bingzhou gentry.

Just as Chen Chu and Lu Su were talking in the inner hall, the Tie Guard came to report that the contemporary Zhang family in Bingzhou advocated Zhang Yuan to ask for a meeting. Chen Chu couldn't help but feel a little surprised, and immediately asked the Tie Guard to invite Zhang Yuan in.

As soon as the iron guard left, Lu Su smiled and said, "Zhang Yuan must have come here for Zhang Tai! The lord can take this opportunity to put pressure on Zhang Yuan!"

Chen Chu nodded. What Lu Su said was consistent with what he thought.

After a while, the Iron Guard brought Zhang Yuan into the inner hall.

As soon as Zhang Yuan entered the inner hall, he bowed to Chen Chu and said, "Zhang Yuan has met General Cavalry!"

"Mr. Zhang is exempted from gifts!" Chen Chu smiled and then asked Zhang Yuan with a gentle voice: "What's wrong with Mr. Zhang?"

Hearing this, Zhang Yuan couldn't help but think in his heart: I really asked! Can you not know what I am doing?

Although he thought so in his heart, he said, "I heard that the child accidentally bumped into the General of Cavalry, so he came to apologize to the General of Cavalry!" Zhang Yuan said sincerely, but there was not much sincerity.

Chen Chu showed a surprised expression and asked, "What does Mr. Zhang mean? Could it be that the rogue who dared to be rude to my wife in the street was Mr. Zhang's son?" When he said this, Chen Chu's face had changed a little.

Hearing this, Zhang Yuan was stunned for a moment, thinking in his heart: Could it be that this General of the Cavalry does not know my son’s identity? No! He is using the words to squeeze me out!

As soon as he thought of this, Zhang Yuan said calmly: "General, although the child is wrong first, he has already cut off his arm, which is considered to be a forgiveness. I hope the general will not make things difficult for the child." Zhang Yuan's attitude seemed fearless, and it gave people the feeling that his son must be let go.

"Bold! You, Zhang Yuan, should be a well-read person. Don't you know that Zhang Tai committed an unforgivable crime?" Lu Su slapped the table and said angrily. Lu Su was angry at this time, not acting, he was indeed angry.

Zhang Yuan couldn't help but be shocked. He thought that the other party was concerned about his influence in Bingzhou and would not make things difficult for him, but he didn't expect that the other party did not seem to be planning to give up. 'Does Chen Chu want to take the opportunity to attack my Zhang family?' Zhang Yuan couldn't help thinking so. Thinking of this, Zhang Yuan's face changed slightly.

At this time, Chen Chu spoke, "Zhang Yuan, I think that Zhang Tai is your only son, so I can't kill him. But the death penalty is not allowed to be eliminated. Zhang Tai will spend the rest of his life in my governor's mansion!"

Zhang Yuan was shocked when he heard this and knelt down and begged: "General, I have only one son. Please let me know!"

Chen Chu was unmoved at all, and said with a cold face: "I'm not killing Zhang Tai, I'm already open-minded! Why? Are you not satisfied?" Chen Chu's tone seemed to have no room for negotiation.

Zhang Yuan couldn't help but feel anxious, and suddenly became confused and begged, "General, I know that my child's crime is unforgivable, but I beg the general to think that I am the only one, and I will show my kindness beyond the law!" At this time, Zhang Yuan no longer had the reserve he had just now.

Seeing that the temperature was almost done, Chen Chu changed his tone and said warmly: "It's really admirable for Mr. Zhang to love Zhang Tai so much! If I persist, it would be too inhumane!"

When Zhang Yuan heard Chen Chu's tone relaxed, he said anxiously: "As long as the general spares his son, I am willing to obey the general's order!"

Chen Chu smiled slightly and said in his heart: I'm waiting for you.

"I can let Zhang Tai go, but you must cooperate with us." Chen Chu said lightly.

Zhang Yuan was stunned and asked, "I wonder what the general needs to serve you?"

"What are you gentry planning to do recently?"

Chen Chu's voice was very plain, but it caused a huge wave in Zhang Yuan's heart. Zhang Yuan's face suddenly turned pale and hesitated: "General, what does the general say? I don't understand."

"Don't understand?" Chen Chu's eyes suddenly became cold, "You are planning to take advantage of the time when I was in the Northern Army's time to take care of me. Do you really think I don't know?"...



Zhang Yuan was shocked and looked at Chen Chu with fear, unable to say a word for a long time.

Looking at Zhang Yuan's expression, Chen Chu smiled coldly and said, "I advise you to tell the truth all the time, so that your Zhang family can avoid a major disaster!"

Then, Lu Su, who was standing beside him, continued: "It doesn't matter if you don't say it, we have already discovered the relevant information about your actions."

Zhang Yuan's face was gloomy and sunny, and he seemed to be having a fierce ideological struggle in his heart. Neither Chen Chu nor Lu Su disturbed him, and asked him to think about it carefully. Sometimes it would be bad if he was too impatient.

After a long time, Zhang Yuan suddenly sighed and looked up at Chen Chu. Chen Chu found that Zhang Yuan's face seemed to have grown ten years older at this moment.

"General, you are right. We gentry are indeed discussing how to take the opportunity to drive you out of Bingzhou."

Chen Chuwei frowned and asked, "Although you gentry are dissatisfied with me, I'm afraid you don't have the courage to plan this matter yet. Who is instigating you? Is it Yuan Shao or Cao Cao?"

Zhang Yuan nodded and replied: "The general is not bad. Although we are dissatisfied with the general, we dare not dare to confront the general openly. About a month ago, Yuan Shao sent a secret envoy to Bingzhou. With his instigation and guarantee, we finally decided to take advantage of the emptiness of Bingzhou to seize the city of Bingzhou."

Chen Chu smiled coldly, "I thought it was Cao Cao, but I didn't expect it was Yuan Shao. I really underestimated Yuan Shao in the past. He actually knew how to use this trick to get rid of the firewood!"

"Tell me about your specific action plan and the participants?" Chen Chu looked at Zhang Yuan and asked again.

Zhang Yuan sighed again, and then he told everything out.

After a while, Zhang Yuan finally finished narrating, and then showed a look of relief.

After listening to Zhang Yuan’s narration, Chen Chu couldn’t help but frown. According to what Zhang Yuan said, most of the gentry in Bingzhou were involved in this matter!

After thinking for a while, Chen Chu said to Zhang Yuan: "Very good! The information you mentioned is very important, but I will verify it. If you dare to lie, you should know the outcome without me!"

Zhang Yuan hurriedly said, "I dare not! I will never dare to deceive the general!"

Chen Chu nodded and said, "Okay! You can go down!"

Zhang Yuan was shocked and asked quickly: "General, didn't you say you wanted to let the child go?"

"What? I'm afraid I will break my promise? Don't worry, after this matter is resolved, I will send someone to send the young master back to the house."

When Zhang Yuan heard this, he couldn't help feeling distressed, but he did not dare to have any objection.

"I dare not disobey the general's order, but I hope to see the child before leaving. I hope the general will be grateful!" Zhang Yuan begged.

Chen Chu thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, Zijing."

"I am here." Lu Su responded immediately.

Chen Chu continued: "You can accompany Mr. Zhang to see the Zhang family's son."

"Yes." Lu Su then turned around and made a call to Zhang Yuan, "Please follow me."

Zhang Yuan quickly clasped his fists at Lu Su and said, "Then it's a blessing." Then he bowed to Chen Chu, "I'm leaving."

Chen Chu nodded. Then Zhang Yuan followed Lu Su towards the wing room of the governor's mansion.

About a quarter of an hour later, Lu Su returned to the inner hall.

"Lord." Lu Su clasped his fists.

Chen Chu smiled slightly and asked, "Has Zhang Yuan left?"

Lu Su nodded and said, "Just leave."

"The scene must be very touching when the father and son meet?"

Lu Su replied with a smile: "It's really touching! At that time, the two fathers and sons cried in a mess! It was as if they were separated from one's life and death!"

Chen Chu smiled again, then changed his subject and asked, "Zijing, what do you think of the situation within Bingzhou?"

Lu Su immediately replied: "It's just a group of mobs! Not worth mentioning!"

Chen Chu smiled and said, "Zijing cannot underestimate these mobs! Sometimes, these mobs can cause big trouble!"

After a pause, Chen Chu said seriously: "I don't care whether the other party is a mob or not, so...

'If a lion fights a rabbit, he must do his best'. Our army must take this opportunity to completely solve all internal problems in Bingzhou with its thunderous force!"
