Outside the yamen of General Hussar's Mansion, among the official houses.
Zhang Shi was filled with resentment, as if he was blocked by a large stone, making it difficult to calm down.
Not long ago, someone was sent to the family to spread the news, saying that someone smashed the door with rocks and then threw feces inside. After chasing him out, no one was seen again...
Although there is no news from my hometown in Hedong for the time being, I believe that after the incident in Chang'an spreads, we may also face the same problem.
Now it is not a matter of the tree falling and the hozen being dispersed, but the problem of the tree falling and the hozen being scattered!
Seeing that Zhang Shi seemed to be in bad luck, a group of people were watching him with eager eyes, just waiting for Zhang Shi to drink his blood and eat his flesh after his death!
There is no way to escape and there is no way out. It is like a nightmare, lingering around and never dissipating. This feeling is something Zhang Shi has never experienced in his life.
Zhang Shi originally thought that he could take life and death lightly, and he naturally said so. But when he really wanted to do it, he found that he couldn't take it lightly, and he couldn't face life and death at all. Just like many people said that so-and-so did something
What's so great about doing something, isn't it very common, but when I face a similar situation, I find that seeing it from a distance and facing it up close are completely different things.
The evening breasts were placed on the table and were almost cold.
Zhang Shi still had no appetite and walked around in circles in the small room with his hands behind his back, like a trapped animal.
"Pang Lingjun is here!"
Suddenly, someone shouted loudly.
Zhang Shi was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was doing, and hurriedly walked out of the room, entered the courtyard, and stood solemnly to greet him.
Pang Tong slowly came with a group of people, and among the crowd, Wei Duan followed Pang Tong like a little follower.
Among the officials, not only Zhang Shi stayed behind, but also some other officials who were either on duty or who felt that their families were not as good as the officials, also came to the courtyard together. After all, eating, washing, clothes and other chores were free in the officials.
, and you have to hire someone to do it at your own home. For a small official with an average income, it is obviously more cost-effective to stay in an official house.
Pang Tong's eyes swept across the officials in the official residence, and then he didn't say anything to Zhang Shi, but just walked forward with his head held high.
Pang Tong was naturally familiar with the layout of the official residence outside the Huqi Mansion and the ownership of the rooms, so he didn't waste much time and pointed directly at Zhang Shi's room and said, "Open the door!"
Zhang Shi's expression changed, "Pang Lingjun! What are you doing?"
Pang Tong glanced at it and said, "What do you think?"
"As the saying goes, a scholar can be killed but not humiliated!" Zhang Shi still wanted to express what it means to be a dead duck and still have a tough mouth. What's more, under the watchful eyes of so many people, he must have the spirit of a scholar, "Pang Lingjun wants to humiliate someone?"
Although he sounded tough, Zhang Shi actually didn't even move his feet...
The door was pushed open.
Originally, the room was not very big, but after the two doors were pushed open, everything could be seen.
On the outside of the house, there is an office desk in the middle, while on the other side, closer to the inside, there is a couch. In front of the couch is a small desk, with a table on it that has not yet been used.
food.
"Haha..." Pang Tong glanced at Zhang Shi again, and then waved.
Immediately, soldiers came forward, entered the house, and carried out the small case placed inside, along with the food on it...
Zhang Shi's eyes rolled around, as if he thought of something, but he still didn't dare to believe it.
An attendant took out a dog from behind the queue, and then fed the food on Zhang Shi's case to the dog in front of everyone...
Everyone held their breath and concentrated. Some people didn't know what was going on, but some people guessed something, and their faces turned pale and their heads were sweating.
Sure enough, after a while, the dog that ate the food on Zhang Shi's case began to howl and soon died on the spot with bleeding from its mouth and nose.
The poisons in the Han Dynasty were basically mineral poisons, and the effects of mineral poisons were usually very violent and obvious, so even if you didn’t know what was going on, you would have an idea of what was going on.
"This...this is..."
Zhang Shi was shocked and inexplicable.
Pang Tong waved his hand again, and then some soldiers dragged a servant-looking man to the front of the crowd, and then kicked him to the ground.
"Tell me, how did you do it..." Pang Tong asked calmly.
The servant was lying on the ground, like sifting chaff, "Little...little...someone asked little...little, give...give Zhang...Zhang..."
No need to wait for the words to finish, everyone could already guess how much it was, and they immediately started noisy and excited.
Pang Tong looked around, then gave a quiet sound and signaled that the man should be taken away.
Within the Hussar Mansion Yamen, whether they are soldiers, guards or general attendants, they are all selected through layers of selection. However, outside the Hussar Mansion Yamen, among the ordinary official houses, naturally they are not so strict. Sometimes certain people
When a servant is unwell, it is very common for someone else to take his place, so it is not difficult to sneak in some people with ulterior motives.
Zhang Shi felt that the soles of his feet were weak, as if he had stepped on clouds. Xuxu had no place to bear any force, and he sat down on the ground with a groan...
Without listening to the servant's confession, Zhang Shi could guess what happened in general.
Someone wanted him dead...
If you die, you will be done with it, just like those wealthy people whose heads fell to the ground.
It is human nature to drag people into trouble, and it is also human nature to drag people to support them. Even the best brothers and best friends have few exceptions...
Pang Tong ordered in a deep voice: "In the official residence, all the officials, big and small, will stay here temporarily, and their daily expenses will be temporarily allocated by the Husband's Mansion. All servants and servants in the official residence will be arrested and inspected immediately! If there is any disobedience, they will be arrested immediately."
kill!"
The soldiers behind Pang Tong immediately responded with a roar, and then began to station themselves at various points in the official residence to control the situation...
When Pang Tong tapped the Zhang with his hand, he said, "Come with me..."
A moment later, in the yamen hall of Huqi Mansion, Zhang Shi fell down, stunned. Anyone who knows that he is only one step away from death will inevitably feel a little scared and uneasy.
"Zhang Zhongliang, you still don't understand?" Pang Tong looked at him coldly, and suddenly shouted in a deep voice, "Who are your enemies? Who are your friends? How did you get to the point where you are now without knowing it?"
Sweat suddenly broke out on Zhang Shi's forehead and temples, and he was in a daze, not knowing how to answer.
Pang Tong waved his hand and left, "Wei Yuanzheng, please tell me something! If you still don't understand...hehe..."
Wei Duan bowed deeply and said, "I accept your order."
Zhang Shi looked at it blankly, then turned to look at Wei Duan, a little unbelievable. Because in his understanding, Wei Duan was not on the side of Pang Tong and others, but now...
"Zhongliang..." Wei Duan moved forward a little and stood beside Zhang Shi. After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "What is a "shi"?"
"Ah?" Zhang Shi was stunned.
"Haha..." Wei Duan smiled, raised his head, and said with some emotion, "A few days ago, Pang Lingjun asked someone, and he didn't know how to answer..."
"Hehe Mingming, the king ordered his ministers?" Zhang Shi said.
"Yes." Wei Duan nodded, then shook his head and said, "Not completely."
"Yu Maoshi?" Zhang Shi said again.
"Haha..." Wei Duan said with a smile, "What's the difference between this and the previous intention?"
Zhang Shi was stunned, "This..."
"A scholar is a punishment. The one who holds a golden ax is a "scholar"!" Wei Duan said in a deep voice, "Now a certain generation of lords, on behalf of Pang Lingjun, asked, where is your golden ax now?"
Zhang Shi's heart skipped a beat, his pupils dilated, and he didn't know how to answer.
In the bronze inscriptions of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the shape of "Shi" is like a double-headed axe. After the Warring States Period, the writing method of "Shi" gradually became the same as that of later generations, and then there was not much change until later generations.
"The book says that in Shun's canon, everyone gathered together, called Gao Tao, worshiped and taught him, and called him a scholar." Wei Duan sighed and said, "What an honor? How much respect? But now... I don't know the right and wrong, and I don't know the right and wrong. I only care about money."
, and lost the axe... Zhang Zhongliang, Pang Lingjun did not want to save you, but did not want to be known as a scholar, and he has been ruined since then!"
"The name of a lost soldier..." Zhang Shi muttered and repeated.
Wei Duan nodded, then clapped his hands. Not long after, a guard came in and brought in a lacquer plate. It was three feet of white silk, and there was a shining short blade on it. "Either you die here, or someone else."
If you die there, you can choose it yourself!"
There was sudden silence in the hall.
……щ(?Д?щ)……
The current situation in Guanzhong is unpredictable, and similarly, the changes in the situation in Jiangdong are also dizzying. The changes one after another have left many people in a hurry and difficult to adapt.
The glory originally gained in the Battle of Jingzhou is now like the only warmth in winter, blown away by the cold wind in the blink of an eye!
Sun Quan's army turned around and reached the front line of Wu County in Jiangdong.
However, there is still an undercurrent surging in Jiangdong. Many people are like giant crocodiles underwater, hiding their fangs under the water, only exposing their two nostrils, smelling the changing scent of Jiangdong.
But at such a critical moment, Zhou Yu fell ill. Perhaps because of fatigue on the battlefield in Jingzhou, or for some other reason, the hot man Yin fell ill.
Sun Quan also specially sent people to visit the sick...
Zhou Yu was really sick, not too serious, but not too light either.
For anyone, facing a naughty child always feels a little frustrating, especially when this naughty child is secretive, beat around the bush, refuses to admit his mistakes, deceives and deceives...
Hey, my blood pressure is up!
So, can you not get sick?
Is Sun Quan stupid? Is he stupid? Is he stupid? Obviously not. Just like most naughty children are not stupid, stupid, stupid. If they are stupid in the ordinary sense, then it will be more worry-free. Sun Quan
Somewhat smart, but not too smart, or maybe the smart is not used in the right place.
In other words, Sun Quan's savvy is all focused on politics. From this perspective, Sun Quan is more like a pure political figure than Cao Cao and Liu Bei. For the sake of Jiangdong politics, he can bear the humiliation or turn against him, right?
People are so pure that there is no additional label to put on them. Once a politician becomes pure, he is the most typical politician, so who would like a politician?
Speaking of Cao Cao, of course we have to mention Lao Wang, but no one can forget Cao Cao’s devilish laughter on Huarong Road...
Speaking of Liu Bei, of course we can't help but shed tears, but no one can forget Liu Bei's love life in Wollongong...
Therefore, compared to Sun Quan, Cao Cao and Liu Bei have more flesh and blood and are more like ordinary people. But Sun Quan will wag his tail immediately when he wants to give in, and turn his back immediately when he thinks he is capable. He does not show friendship or favor.
Don’t talk about etiquette or morality, just do it if it’s beneficial, and do it if it’s beneficial!
Isn’t he just a proper politician?
He is simply a refined and pure egoist with no political ideals, no principles.
So what would such a person do when faced with a choice?
Of course, do what is best for you.
Jiangdong soldiers were stationed around Wu County under Sun Quan's strict orders to guard against any sudden changes. What changes? Of course, they were to prevent any changes from happening to Sun Ben.
Sun Fu's death was very sudden and strange. It was undoubtedly a major blow to Sun Fu's brother Sun Ben, and it is difficult to guess what Sun Ben would do under this blow.
Some people say that Sun Ben and Sun Fu had a very good relationship, so after Sun Fu died, Sun Ben would definitely be angry and start an uprising. Others said that the reason for Sun Fu's death was not yet clear, and Sun Ben would not act rashly...
But who knows?
Or who can guarantee it?
"Who is harming someone?!" Sun Quan also showed great anger, and even smashed several of his beloved wine glasses after learning the news of Sun Fu's death.
As soon as Sun Quan arrived, he immediately ordered his soldiers to take over the entire city of Wu County. He also imprisoned all the soldiers and generals at Shuimen, where Sun Fu's incident occurred, for interrogation.
In Wu County, a storm is coming, and even the ordinary people who have no idea are aware that something is wrong. If they are not forced to do so, they will go out less if they can, and if they can, they will not show up.
The Sun family has been running the Wu County for a long time. Not to mention the high level of the city, each city gate is now guarded by serious-looking soldiers from the Sun family. They all look like they are facing a formidable enemy. They will not deal with anyone entering or leaving Wu.
The people in the county also carried out strict searches, and the streets were deserted. Even if there were occasional pedestrians, they would look in a hurry.
There were rumors in Jiangdong that the transfer of power between Sun Ce and Sun Quan was not the peaceful succession announced to the outside world, but that Sun Quan took advantage of the situation and seized the throne that originally belonged to Sun Ce's line...
Of course, the people in the game are very secretive. Naturally, no one outside knows how much intrigue there is and what the truth is.
In the yamen of Sun's mansion.
All the servants and attendants handled it with care and caution, not daring to make any sound for fear of becoming the target of anger...
Sun Quan looked at the people from the major families in Wu County who were sitting at the bottom, slowly passing by each other one by one, with eyes like daggers. Unfortunately, these people from the noble families in Wu County were basically thick-skinned, as if they were all immune.
Same, sit still.
"Aren't you still willing to say it?" Sun Quan said in a deep voice.
Zhu Ran bowed down and said, "Lord Mingjian, this matter... has nothing to do with the Zhu family..."
Zhu Zhi led the troops, and the Zhu family was naturally represented by Zhu Ran. Following Zhu Ran's statement, the other families behind him also expressed their opinions in unison, saying that they were all unjust and did not know about Sun Fu's matter.
Sun Quan sneered twice, and then ordered: "Send it up!"
Not long after, there was the sound of soldiers snapping armor, and then they carried two boxes.
The box was opened, and some gold and silver were revealed.
Suddenly someone took a breath...
The people present were all people from the big family. Naturally, they were not surprised because there were only two boxes of gold and silver, but because the gold and silver in the box had the logos of the Zhu family and the Zhang family!
People in the Han Dynasty, especially wealthy families, especially liked to store gold and silver, so generally speaking, gold and silver ingots would be marked with the family's logo. In addition to a small part of the aesthetic needs, it was mainly to prevent theft. Just like gold in later generations.
If the bank encounters someone who doesn't have a receipt...
It can also be exchanged, but the price will be much lower.
And on the gold and silver ingots in these two boxes, there are obviously the marks of the Zhu family and the Zhang family!
"This is what was found in the home of Captain Shuimen!" Sun Quan said coldly, "You still say it has nothing to do with it?"
Zhu Ran apologized, then took a few steps forward to the box, took out one or two gold and silver ingots, then looked at them, frowned, and said nothing.
Zhang Yun, um, not the one from Jingzhou, he just has the same name. He also stepped forward to watch, and then looked at each other with Zhu Ran. They were both silent and didn't say anything.
Sun Quan sneered and did not urge him.
"In that case, why not summon Captain Minato and confront him face to face?" After a moment, Zhu Ran said with his hands in hand.
Sun Quan slapped the table with a bang, "Confrontation? Do you think you have nothing to fear? That's right, Captain Shuimen was poisoned the night he entered prison! Hum, luckily it was too early to find out... after he recovered.
, then you can confront me!』
Zhang Yun cupped his hands and said, "How lucky you are! If you are really involved, how can you be so public? This gold and silver is just a frame-up for you. I hope my lord will learn from it!"
Zhu Ran also bowed his hands and said, "My lord, you have a clear vision!"
Sun Quan stared at Zhu Ran and Zhang Yun, while Zhu Ran and Zhang Yun stood calmly. Although they did not look at Sun Quan, they showed no signs of avoidance or fear...
There was silence in the hall.
Just like what Zhu Ran and Zhang Yun said, if the Zhu family and Zhang family were really involved in this matter, they would not openly put the gold and silver with their own logos at home, waiting for Sun Quan to raid the house. The most important thing is
What is surprising is that Captain Shuimen was not, as Sun Quan said, "it was too early to discover" and "wait for his recovery", but when Sun's people discovered the abnormality, Captain Shuimen was already dead.
There is no chance of rescue at all...
There was silence in the hall, like stagnant water. It seemed to be flowing, but in fact it had lost its vitality.
"Since both of you are unjust..." Sun Quan finally said slowly and through gritted teeth, "I will leave this matter to you and others for thorough investigation! After three days, if there is no result, I will leave it to you and others to ask!"
