Reborn in the Three Kingdoms Novel - Chapter 46

Chapter 46 Guang Ling Satrap
Zhao Yun understood and turned to leave. Very quickly, he brought Wang De in. At the same time, a large wooden box was placed on the ground.

The box was opened by Zhao Yun, and a burst of white light was reflected. From afar, it was at least several thousand taels.

‘”This is 5,000 taels of silver. Take it as an apology for your rash behavior tonight. Please accept it, Emperor Master. If you have the chance, please say a few words for Chao Mei Yan. That will be enough.” Zhang Chao said with a very respectful and low posture.

Hearing that there were 5,000 taels of silver here, Wang Yue’s heart skipped a beat.

He had long heard that this Zhang Clan’s Second Childe was spending money like earth, willing to sacrifice his capital for the sake of his career advancement. Now, it seemed that this was indeed the case.

While sighing at Zhang Chao’s forthright attitude, Wang Yue said, “How can I take so much money for nothing?”

“Ah, why is it useless? Haha, Wang De, come here.” Zhang Chao took this opportunity to call Wang De, who was standing at the door with his head lowered.

Hearing this, Wang De hurriedly entered the room and stood beside Zhang Chao.

“Hehe, Imperial Master, you must know this person, right? I know that you had some misunderstandings in the past. Now that I’m the middleman, it’s still troublesome for my sake. Let this matter be exposed, okay?” Zhang Chao looked at Wang Yue with a smile on his face, but his body was already tense. He did not understand Wang Yue very well and did not know what kind of action his actions would lead to.

“Wang De, it’s actually you. How dare you appear in the capital? Are you tired of living?” Standing behind Wang Yue, Shi A’s eyes widened when he saw Wang De appear. At the same time, his sword was unsheathed.

Under the chain reaction of Shi-ah’s actions, the swords of Zhao Yun and Taishi Ci were also pulled out at the first moment, and they stepped forward to protect Zhang Chao’s left and right.

Shi-ah’s actions shocked Zhang Chao, and he almost habitually retreated. However, in the end, his rationality still allowed him to stand where he was. He only looked at Wang Yue with a smile. He knew that this person was the one who had the final say.

When Wang Yue saw Wang De, there was a trace of anger in his eyes. It could be seen that the hatred between the two of them was indeed not small.

However, it was only anger spurting out of his eyes. He really did not draw his sword out of its sheath like his disciple, Shi Ah. He first looked at Zhang Chao. When he saw that the other party was smiling at him, he smiled and said, “Alright, Shi-ah, put away your sword. Don’t you know that General Zhang is my friend?”

After Wang Yue, who was his master, spoke, Shi A had no choice but to put away his sword and snorted coldly.

Seeing that the sword had been put away, Zhang Chao also winked at Zhao Yun and Taishi Ci. Then, he laughed loudly and said, “Thank you, Emperor Master, for giving me face. I’m extremely grateful.”

“If not, General Zhang has boundless prospects. Being able to become friends with you is my wish.” Wang Yue also laughed loudly.

Wang Yue had his own ninety-ninth year. This Zhang Chao had already become a governor at his age. I heard that his relationship with Zhang Rang and the others was very harmonious. Perhaps he would be able to enter the capital and occupy important positions in the future. It was also a good thing to get along with him in advance. As for Wang De, it was a trivial matter. This time, it was better to give Zhang Chao face.

With the help of money, Wang Yue finally gave up pursuing Wang De to offend him. Everyone was happy. In the end, Zhang Chao smiled as he escorted the two of them out of the inn and sent them into a carriage to transport the silver.

After Wang Yue left, Wang De took the initiative to stand beside Zhang Chao and kneel to the ground. “Second Childe, Wang De’s life will be yours from now on.”

“Haha, your life is yours. That’s the most precious thing. I won’t take it. If you really want to thank me, then try your best to do a good job.” Zhang Chao patted Wang De on the shoulder and smiled as he turned back to his room.

Wang Yue’s sudden appearance made Zhang Chao feel that his existence had been noticed by some people. This made him decide to leave this place as soon as possible. Even if Wang Yue could find him today, he couldn’t guarantee that He Jin would be eyeing him any day. He was already considered Zhang Rang’s person, so he didn’t want to provoke this fiendish star.

The next morning, Zuo Feng happened to arrive at Yue Lai Ju and read out a decree, inviting Zhang Chao to enter the hall to thank him.

Zhang Chao and Zuo Feng had done a lot of things together. He was no longer an outsider, so he told them about his plans to leave the capital.

“Your Excellency, Emperor Master Wang Yue suddenly appeared in the inn last night. Although there was nothing unpleasant about him, who knows if anything will happen next time? That’s why I want to leave for Guangling after thanking the Emperor for his kindness today.”

After Zuo Feng heard this, he thought for a moment and said, “Yes, it’s feasible. Thank you for your kindness today. Your mission has been completed. You can leave the capital now.”

“Alright.” Hearing that Zuo Feng had also agreed to this decision, Zhang Chao felt even more confident.

Being made a satrap, according to the rules, one must thank the Emperor for his kindness. This was also the reason why Zhang Chao stayed in the capital for so long. Today’s decree was the best chance to thank him, so Zhang Chao followed Zuo Feng to the palace.

In the palace hall, the Han Spirit Emperor was wearing a yellow robe high up in the air, his face waxy yellow. This was due to the excessive amount of wine and vulgarity. Compared to some emperors, Zuo Xiang was indeed a little lazy. His body was tilted, as if he didn’t have a skeleton supporting him.

Standing on the left of the Han Spirit Emperor was Zhang Jian, the head of the Ten Common Attendants. On the right was indeed a Mang Qiang Han. He was the uncle brother of the Han Spirit Emperor who had killed pigs. He Jin was the Great General of the Han Spirit Emperor.

He Jin was tall because his half-sister was chosen to be a noble person and was favored by the Han Spirit Emperor. In fact, he was just a butcher.

However, as a general now, he was in a high position, and his younger sister was also an expensive empress, so he could be said to have been favored for a while. Even facing Zhang Rang and the others, he was not afraid at all.

When Zhang Chao entered the hall, he saw these three people.

Seeing the yellow-robed man sitting in the middle, Zhang Chao had no choice but to kneel down and say, “Long live the emperor in front of the Guang Ling satrap. Long live the emperor.”

As he spoke, Zhang Chao in his heart had indeed greeted Liu Hong’s eight generations, and he even thought that one day, he would make Liu’s descendants kneel at his feet.

“Hold your head up.” Zhang Chao, who was lowering his head to greet him, heard the voice of the Han Spirit Emperor Liu Hong.

His voice was very low. If he didn’t listen carefully, he might not be able to hear it clearly. From this, it could be seen that there was something wrong with the Spirit Emperor’s body. The historical Spirit Emperor died four years later.

Zhang Chao slowly raised his head and let the Spirit Emperor see it clearly.

“En, she looks very talented. Alright, Father Zhang, decree.” After a brief glance, the Spirit Emperor spoke lazily to Zhang Rang beside him.

In that era, it was very important for officials to have an official appearance. Just like a famous scholar, the strategist Pang Tong was famous for his ugly appearance. As the ruler of the world at that time, Liu Hong naturally paid attention to this matter.

Following which, Zhang Rang issued a decree, after which, Zhang Chao left the palace hall.

From the beginning to the end, he did not have any conversation with the three of them. All he did was pay his respects to the Emperor and thank him for his kindness.

After leaving the imperial palace, Zhang Chao turned around and looked around, sighing in his heart. After leaving the capital this time, I don’t know when I’ll be here next time. Perhaps this place is already in a mess.

The first thing Zhang Chao did after obtaining the official decree was to go to the Cai Manor to bid farewell.

Cai Yong was obviously in favor of Zhang Chao leaving the capital in a hurry. “Alright, Zhiyuan, we have a long way to go. We must pay attention to safety. As for us, you don’t have to worry too much. It’s just that there won’t be any problems if the situation is in chaos.”

“Yes, Lord Yue Zhang, if something urgent happens, I will arrange for someone to come to rescue me.” Zhang Chao also made a promise.

‘”Yes, I have. Haha, you should go to the backyard to see Yan’er. If she knew that you were leaving, she would definitely cry. Ai, you too. Why don’t you take Yan’er away? You also went to my heart’s content.” Yong said while shaking his head.

Leave CAI yan in the capital, this is zhang chao meaning. Although with his age and current status, in addition to his parents also agree, is can marry CAI yan entry, but he did not do so.

In his words, how could one not start a business and start a family? If CAI Yan followed him back to Chen Liu, I’m afraid that his mind can’t be used to prepare for war. What he needed to do now was to make full use of this seemingly peaceful three-year period to lay a solid foundation, so that if he did not move, he would be able to do so. If he did not move, he would be like a landslide, like a mountain pressing down on him.

Not to let CAI Yan follow him, in addition to not let its distraction, there is also a benefit is, let some people rest assured. For example, Wang Yue would definitely report the matter of a strong warrior beside him, which would inevitably arouse some suspicions. Now that CAI Yan stayed in the capital, it was equivalent to telling others, his small bianzi is here? It gives people a natural sense of security.

Of course, the biggest role is to make it have an excuse to refuse a thing, and what is this thing, believe it will not take long to happen, at that time, he left CAI wenji will play the biggest role.

In the backyard, CAI Yan is playing the zither, see zhang chao walked over from afar, this is happy to stand up and shout: “zhang lang, quickly see how I do this new song?”

“Alright.” Zhang Chao agreed, then took CAI Yan stretched out a small hand, sit beside it.

Nothing said, just sit there quietly, listen to CAI Yan hand play a song.

The sound of the zither was excellent and pleasant to hear, but no matter what, one could feel a trace of sadness.
