Chapter 917 Turning Enemies into Friends (Ask for a monthly ticket!)
After receiving Bei Zhan's reply, Simpi immediately asked for an order to go to Zhang He's camp and have an interview with Zhang He.

As for the pardon edict that Zhang Yun wanted, he didn't even mention it.

On the contrary, Liu Xie thoughtfully asked about Simpi's safety, and Simpi said confidently: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, Zhang He's people are in my hands, and I am in danger, so he dare not do anything to me."

Liu Xie didn't ask much, and agreed to Simpi's action plan.

Xin Pi, with an attendant, crossed the Zhang River in a single boat and arrived at Zhang He's camp.

Zhang He sent his son Zhang Xiong to meet him at the ferry, and asked them as soon as they met.

"Have you brought the edict of pardon?"

Simpi glanced at Zhang Xiong. "You can also read the imperial edict?"

Zhang Xiong was so angry that he stretched out his hand and was about to draw his sword.Simpi looked at him motionless, without changing his expression, but a contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.Zhang Xiong felt guilty when he saw him, cursed bitterly, and put the knife back into the sheath.

"go!"

Arriving at the camp and entering the tent of the Chinese army, Zhang He leaned on the table, put one hand on the table, tapped the table with his fingers, and held the scabbard in the other hand, squinting at Simpi who walked in.

Simpi came to stand in front of Zhang Xi, and said word by word: "Zhang Junyi, I captured your people. If you dare to kill me, do it now. If you don't dare, put away your face When I came, Bei Wenxiu praised you, although you are a martial artist, you can be called a Confucian general. You are like this, it is really not worthy of the name."

Zhang He looked slightly embarrassed and glanced at Zhang Xiong.

Zhang Xiong nodded, indicating that Simpi had brought the edict.Seeing Zhang Xi, he didn't dare to be too presumptuous. He stood up and straightened his clothes.

"Please take out the emperor's edict."

"What edict?" Simpi asked back.

Zhang He was taken aback, stared at Xin Pi twice, and then looked at Zhang Xiong again.Zhang Xiong was also stunned, and shouted sharply: "Didn't you just say you brought it?"

"When did I say I brought the imperial edict?" Simpi sneered, "I just said, you are not worthy of reading the imperial edict."

Zhang Xiong was furious, drew his knife out of its sheath, and put it on Simpi's neck. "Still Confucianism, how dare you tease me?"

Simpi's smile remained unchanged, and he looked at Zhang Yun quietly, with a clear provocation in his eyes.

A cold light flashed in Zhang He's eyes, and he sneered, "Xin Zuozhi, if you can't give me a satisfactory explanation, you won't be able to get out of the tent today. I took such a big risk to approach you, not for you to tease my father and son." .”

Simpi nodded. "You guys teased me first."

"How to say?"

"What credit do you have to the imperial court to dare to ask for the edict of pardon?" Simpi sneered and said, "Do you think I, Ruying, have such a big face that I can ask the emperor to pardon you? It's ridiculous. I won't hide it from you, judge Kill my family, and I will kill yours, this may be more in line with the emperor's wishes. It would be best if the Ruying people and the Jizhou people died together."

Zhang He was startled. "What...how do you say this?"

Simpi sighed. "General, why don't you understand? Why did Yuan Benchu ​​bring my Ruying people to Jizhou? Didn't he just want to use Jizhou's strong manpower, material resources, elite soldiers and strong generals, plus my Ruying people's intelligence, to use both civil and military skills?" Do you want to annex the world? Ruying people and Jizhou people are at odds with each other, and there are endless internal strife, which gave the emperor a chance to clean up the mess. Now that Yuan Benchu ​​died before starting his business, and the Ruying people and Jizhou people are still there, how could the emperor not be afraid? Reason? You and I are fighting each other, which is exactly the situation that the emperor likes to see. At this moment, how can he give you the edict of pardon?"

The corners of Zhang He's eyes twitched, he pondered for a moment, shook his head at Zhang Xiong, stretched out his hand to ask Xin Pi to take a seat, and asked Zhang Xiong to go out and watch, so as not to be disturbed.

"In that case, how should I deal with it?"

"The emperor is afraid of you and me, and someone has to bear the loss. Ruying people respect the Yuan family, so Yuan Benchu ​​must die. Jizhou people regard Shenpei and Tian Feng as their leaders, and they must die too."

Zhang He breathed a sigh of relief quietly. "Is this enough?"

"Of course not. It is imperative to save the land in Jizhou. Only in this way can the manpower and material resources of Jizhou become the tax of the imperial court, instead of relying on the support of the big clan to fight against the army. The threat of the Jizhou people to the imperial court can be truly relieved."

"Then what about you Ruying?"

Simpi smiled wryly. "The general should have been to Ruying, right?"

Zhang He nodded.When Yuan Shao went south to the Central Plains for the first time, he accompanied him and knew a little about Ruying's geography.

"There are many people in Ruying and little land, especially in Yingchuan. There is actually not much difference between spending more on farming or not. The key to controlling Ruying is official career. As long as you intentionally restrict the official career of Ruying people, Ruying people will not be a problem."

Zhang He thought for a while, and said in response, "Dang Gu?"

"Although it's not that serious, it's about the same. Of course, if the trial is successful and hundreds of Ruying people in the city are killed, it won't be so troublesome. Thirty percent of my Ruying Junjie is here, and my vitality is seriously injured. At least twenty It will be difficult to recover within a year."

Simpi frowned and sighed repeatedly.

Seeing this, Zhang Yun felt a little terrified.

Although he didn't think the Ruqing people in the city were so valuable, he knew that those people were very important to Xin Pi and Xun You.If Shen Pei killed these people, Xin Pi and Xun You would definitely retaliate wildly, and there was no reason for their own people to be spared.

As for the Son of Heaven, he will definitely not stop him, and maybe he will push the flames and let the people of Ruying and Jizhou kill each other.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that what Simpi said made sense. The Ruying people and the Jizhou people were in the same boat. Not only should they not become enemies, but they should join hands to deal with the imperial court's suppression.

If it weren't for the internal strife between the Ruying people and the Jizhou people, Yuan Shao might not have been defeated, and the situation would not have fallen to what it is today.

The big mistake has already been made, and now we should rein in the precipice and remedy it immediately, so as not to cause a greater tragedy.

"I can speak to Shen Zhengnan, but..."

Simpi replied, "But he won't listen to you."

"Why?"

"One is that Shen Zhengnan is a man who would rather bend than bend, and will not listen to people's persuasion easily, otherwise he would not have come to where he is today. Second, Yin'an Shen's house has been confiscated by the emperor. Even if he is willing to surrender, he will not come back. At most, it’s just Gou’s life. It’s impossible to make meritorious service like the general. For him, it’s better to burn jade and stone than to survive, and he may force the emperor to give in.”

Simpi let out a long sigh. "It's a pity that he doesn't know the emperor's mind at all. It is inevitable to burn jade and stone together, but it is wishful thinking to want the emperor to give in."

After hearing this, Zhang Yun deeply agreed, but at the same time felt a little helpless.

Simpi was right, the possibility of the commissioner surrendering was not high, and the possibility of forcing the emperor to make concessions was extremely slim.If there is no accident, the trial match will undoubtedly die.

But he didn't want to die with the trial match, and he didn't need to.

If you want to live, there is only one way, cooperate with Simpi, oppose the judge, and don't become the sacrificial object of the judge.

If we can prevent Shenpei from killing people to vent his anger, and save the family members of Simpi and others, maybe we can form an alliance with the Ruying people and support each other.

Seeing that Zhang He was moved, Simpi casually mentioned another sentence. "Does the general know about Cui Jigui?"

Zhang He thought about it. "I know, he was ordered by Zhengnan to go to Chang'an to meet him, but he never came back."

"He won't come back." Simpi said, "He has been admitted to the lecture hall and is currently studying the geography of the Western Regions. When the Central Plains are settled and the Son of Heaven marches westward, he will be of great use."

"Really?" Zhang He stroked his beard under his chin thoughtfully.

　On the last day of June, let's throw over the monthly pass.
