Reborn in the Three Kingdoms Novel - Chapter 42
Chapter 42 Wang Yun
“Yes.” Zhang Chao, who was following behind, agreed.
“Also, the matter of you becoming General Dangkou has been settled. Whether you can become a county satrap as you wish this time depends on your good fortune.”
“Understood. I have already prepared a heavy gift for Lord Zhang Rang. I wonder if a million taels of silver is enough.” Zhang Chao probed.
“Oh, that should be enough.” Hearing that he had prepared such a thick gift, Zuo Feng nodded heavily. At the same time, he turned around and looked at Zhang Chao. He didn’t expect this kid to be so rich. Could it be that selling wine was really so profitable?
Zuo Feng naturally didn’t know that this money was plundered by Bo Cai, but it was taken by Zhang Chao and he borrowed the flowers to offer Buddha.
Not long after, Zuo Feng arrived outside a palace. “Alright, this is it. Remember to speak less and listen more, understand?”
“Don’t worry.” Zhang Chao nodded and strode into the palace.
Zhang Rang was famous for raiding and extorting money and indulging in greed. To see him, he had to have enough money to open up a path. This time, Zhang Chao, who had brought a lot of money, felt confident.
Even after passing several guards, it was just that after seeing Zhang Chao, these people seemed as if they hadn’t seen him. It was obvious that they had received orders before.
After passing through a few inner doors, he finally arrived in front of a slightly dimmed room. Zhang Chao stopped moving forward here. He had already seen a man wearing a brocade-clothed eunuch with his back facing him.
The eunuch was unique, neither male nor female. With a strange tone, a shrill voice sounded, “Is this Chen Liu’s Zhang Chao?”
Compared to Zuo Feng’s voice, Zhang Rangzhi’s voice caused people’s heads to go cold, their scalps to go numb, and goosebumps to appear all over their bodies. He really didn’t know how the Han Spirit Emperor would normally tolerate such a sound.
When Zhang Chao felt that he wasn’t used to it, Zhang Rang’s voice sounded, “Well, my family has heard of you. I know that you have military merits in the Battle of Changshe. You have always respected filial piety and virtue, and you have great literary talent. That’s why I highly recommend you to the Emperor and let you lead General Dangkou.”
“Thank you, my lord.” Zhang Chao stated his stance at the right time.
‘”There’s no need to thank me. You also spent money this time. This is what you deserve. How about this, Zuo Fengji told me about the satrap on either side. I will think of a way to bring about this. You just stay in Luoyang City these days and don’t randomly receive visitors, understand?” Zhang Rang reminded.
Zhang Chao knew what these words meant. He had long since heard that many people came to the capital to run for office, and Zhang Rang was often the first place, followed by the Great General He Jin. This was because they were worried that they would step on two boats. “Ten Regular Attendants” and general He Jin, the Yuan clan and other cremation representatives of the same potential, naturally hate very much!
“At the end of will understand, please rest assured adults that is, I will not casually walk. Zhang Chao replied with the same code.
The meeting with Zhang Rang was very short. It was only at the end that Zhang Chao could clearly see the other party’s face. This was a man with a somewhat feminine appearance.
After leaving the palace, Zhang Chao heaved a sigh of relief. He did not expect that his meeting with Zhang Rang would actually put such a great pressure on him. He did not expect that he would not even need to see the Emperor this time, and that Zhang Rang would be considered a great success.
Zhang Chao, who had never thought that he would have too much communication with the Han Spirit Emperor and the Ten Changshi, could not wait for these things.
According to the historical trend, within a few years, the Han Spirit Emperor had died. Following that, the Ten Changshi had been killed. If they had too much contact with these people, it would be useless and would instead be criticized by others.
After leaving the palace, he saw Zhao Yun and Taishi Ci waiting for him outside the east gate.
Upon seeing Zhang Chao come out, the two of them hurriedly greeted him. Then, Zhao Yun whispered to his ear, “Second Childe, Wang De just sent someone to report something to you.”
“Yes, go back.” Zhang Chao nodded. Even if it was Wang Dexun, it should be an urgent matter. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have sent someone to chase him over to the palace and say it again, knowing that he had come to the palace.
Everyone hurriedly returned to Yue Lai Ju. Upstairs, they saw Wang De waiting here. Upon seeing Zhang Chao appear, they hurriedly said, “Second Childe, something very nervous happened in the capital. I think this news might be useful to Young Master.”
Zhang Chao nodded and took the lead in opening the door, leaving Zhao Yun and Taishi Ci outside.
According to the rules, Zhang Chao was the only person responsible for the Heavenly Eye Organization. Unless he named someone to know about this matter, otherwise, even Zhao Yun would not be able to probe the Heavenly Eye. That was a big taboo.
This was also a power that Zhang Chao needed to control alone. In the future, he would have more soldiers. As a Lord, he had to learn how to control it, so that they could feel that they could rely on it and at the same time fear it. The existence of the Heavenly Eye could do so.
Inside the room, Wang De recounted the information he had just gotten from the palace.
This was the news obtained from a small eunuch who had been bribed by a large sum of money. Because the governor of Yuzhou, wang Yun, had offended Zhang Rang, he was about to face a great calamity.
Yunwang Zishi, Taiyuan Qi (now Qi County, Shanxi Province) people.
In 184, yun and left corps commander huangfu song, right corps commander zhu yue surrendered hundreds of thousands of yellow turban uprising army.
In the process of surrender, careful yun3 from the peasant army to search for a letter written by the guests who often waited on zhang rang, the letter involves some of the contents related to the yellow turban army.
Yun don’t care about the stakes, he suspected Zhang Rang and the yellow turban, then further investigation, expose all the specific details, and wrote on the memorial to play the emperor.
After the Han Spirit Emperor knew about this, he angrily berated Zhang Rang. However, Zhang Rang was so cunning and tactful when he answered the Emperor. Not only did he not admit his guilt, he said that Wang Yun was jealous of him and framed him. He said that he was so loyal to His Majesty and the Imperial Court that he did not have the slightest intention of having an affair with the Yellow Scarf Army and betraying the Imperial Court. The Spirit Emperor had originally intended to favor Zhang Rang, and because he was deceived by Zhang Rang’s flashy words, he believed that he was innocent, so he no longer pursued the matter.
The Spirit Emperor did not pursue Zhang Rang anymore. If this happened, the broken yun3 would be unlucky. News had already come from the palace that there was a decree for him to return to the capital. He was afraid that after he returned, he would be doomed.
Zhang Chao did not understand yun3, about his history is also very little, but it is clear that in the following dong zhuo into the capital to grasp power, he once sat on Situ’s high position. In that case, this person shouldn’t have such a short life. This matter shouldn’t be difficult for him.
In fact, it is also the case, zhang let yun twice for this matter, let it through a very painful period of time.
How about yun3, zhang chao is not concerned, also does not matter what to help him, this person is not in his recruiting talent. However, this person did have a very important person under him, and that person was the sable cicada, one of the four great beauties of ancient times.
The beauty of the sable cicada was once praised by people. Although Zhang Chao hadn’t seen her until now, he could imagine that she must be an extremely beautiful beauty. And this person is from yun’s mansion.
The sable cicada was also one of the two beauties Zhang Chao was looking for when he entered Luoyang. One of the CAI Yan things has been decided, just waiting for the right time to marry the door, but where the sable cicada is now, he really does not know. The Heavenly Eye members were sent out to investigate, but their whereabouts were nowhere to be found.
This made Zhang Chao guess that the sable cicada may not be his real name, this person should have a different name, but unfortunately he did not know.
However, the sable cicada can’t find, really can find through yun3, now that this person has information, that is not far from the ultimate goal.
“Alright, send someone to keep an eye on wang Yun. Once he enters Luoyang City, immediately notify me. Also, arrange for me to see Zuo Feng again.” Zhang chao decided to operate, let yun owe him a favor, to set out the real whereabouts of the sable cicada.
After Wang De received the order, he left.
Not long after, Zuo Feng arrived at Yue Lai Ju.
Zuo Feng was able to come here instead of Zhang Chao visiting. To put it bluntly, it was the silver that played a role. He naturally didn’t want to lose contact with such a big customer who was willing to show filial piety to him.
Zuo Feng came, zhang chao a very respectful look will be invited upstairs, in his room, said he wanted to help yun.
“General Zhang, our family is here to give you face, but isn’t your request a bit too excessive? This time, Yun wang offended Father (the eunuch and the Spirit Emperor address Zhang Rang as such). What do you think I can do? Alright, let’s just pretend that I haven’t been here before and pretend that I didn’t hear those words.”
When he understood what Zhang Chao meant, Zuo Feng revealed an unhappy expression. After he finished speaking, he stood up and looked like he was about to leave.
“Your Excellency, wait a moment.” Zhang Chao indeed stretched out his arms to stop Zuo Feng.
Seeing that Zhang Chao actually dared to stop him, Zuo Feng immediately said angrily, “Oh? Is General Zhang trying to harm our family?”
“How dare you, how dare you? This general only has a few words that I want to say. I just want you to hear it and if you still feel that it doesn’t make sense, then it’s not too late to leave.” Zhang Chao had a smile on his face, but there was not the slightest intention of retreating.
Zuo Feng had seen the majesty of the guards beside Zhang Chao, and knew that if the other party really wanted to harm him, it would be really hard to deal with. He didn’t want to stir things up, so he snorted and sat down in the guest chair again.
“Haha.” Zhang Chao smiled first. After seeing that Zuo Fengji was completely seated, he slowly said, “My lord, I have a good relationship with Wang Cishi. It’s not too much to say that I’m a good friend.” Just like me and my lord, we have a strong desire to see each other late. Now that he was in trouble, how could he, as a good friend, stand by and watch? If there comes a day when my lord is in trouble, I will definitely know that I will not ignore it. “I hope you can help me, my lord.”
