I, Liu Bian, the hero

Chapter 94
Jushou, isn't that a minister under Yuan Shao's command who would rather die than surrender to Cao Cao?

When Liu Bian looked at this period of history, he felt sorry for those loyal ministers who would rather die than surrender. Hanyang prefect Fu Xie was one of them, and Ju Shou was also one of them.

Unexpectedly, this time he fished for law enforcement and single-handedly led Wang Fen's rebellion, but he trapped Jushou, a loyal minister.

Compared with Jushou, he also cared a lot about Qu Yi and Sima Lang. After all, the former was a mighty general who defeated even Gongsun Zan, while the latter...just "Sima Yi's elder brother" is enough to explain the problem.

As for Zhang Yun, he was one of the four pillars of Hebei in history, and the general of the later Cao Weifang.

However, this kind of character didn't even make a fuss this time. After the fight, Liu Bian looked at the list and found out that there was Zhang He, which scared him a lot.

Qu Yi and Zhang Yun, what combination is this?
Much better than Liu Yujia Gongsun Zan!
He turned his head to Emperor Ling and said: "Father, my son wants to go and see Huan and Cui, two Zhonglang will interrogate all the accomplices."

"What's so beautiful about that?"

Although Emperor Ling didn't understand, he didn't stop him.

After all, after gradually realizing his son's intelligence, his control over Liu Bian became more and more loose, especially this time under his son's plan, he did catch the rebellious Wang Fen and caught the handle of the scholars. The debate became more relaxed.

No, with a warning, Emperor Ling let Liu Bian leave the main hall with Zhao Chun, Xia Houyuan and others, heading towards the direction where Huan Dian and Cui Jun were.

Not long after, Liu Bian and his party came to the place where Huan Dian, Cui Jun, and Liu Yu questioned Wang Fen and other accomplices, that is, an open space outside the old residence of Emperor Ling.

Before he got close, Liu Bian heard someone trying to defend himself: "... I was really wronged! When the Yellow Turbans rebelled a few years ago, I led hundreds of people to defeat thousands of thieves, and killed dozens of people. If I If you want to help Wang Fen, how can the rebel army be defeated so quickly?"

"Who is this person? He speaks so arrogantly." Xia Houyuan frowned.

"It's probably Zhang He. 』

Liu Bian smiled slightly, and walked quickly to the distance.

After all, in Wang Fenyu's roster, only Qu Yi and Zhang He could fight, and now it has been confirmed that Qu Yi was the one who blocked Gongsun Zan's army last night, and only Zhang He...

To be honest, if Liu Bian hadn't seen this name in the list, Liu Bian would not have known that Zhang Xi had also participated in Wang Fen's conspiracy.

He walked quickly towards the distant crowd.

At this time, Huan Dian, Cui Jun, and Liu Yu were indeed interrogating Zhang He. After all, Zhang He was Fanyang Wei. He was arrested and interrogated by Huan Dian and Cui Jun.

"Shihou?"

Seeing Liu Bian leading people forward from a distance, Cui Jun, Huan Dian, and Liu Yu all got up from their chairs and walked forward to meet them.

Cui Jun asked curiously: "Shi Hou came here, what orders do you have?"

Liu Bian raised the list in Yang's hand, and said with a smile: "I have nothing to do, so I asked my father for an errand to see some accomplices who interrogated Wang Fen."

As he said that, he looked curiously at the young man who was kneeling on the ground under the pressure of two tiger benmen, and deliberately provoked the latter: "Is this person one of Wang Fen's accomplices?"

It was Zhang He who was controlled by the tiger benshi in the arena. Hearing this, he retorted loudly: "No, I am not Wang Fen's accomplice!"

Apparently he also heard Liu Bian just say "Father Emperor", and he immediately guessed in his heart that this child in Chinese clothes, who seemed to be in his early ten years, was most likely to be a certain prince of today's emperor, and begged loudly: "This prince, come down!" It just so happens that the humble job is really wronged."

"shut up!"

Huan Dian yelled, and immediately ordered the left and right Huben soldiers to step forward to control Zhang Yun, but Liu Bian waved his hand to stop him and said, "No, listen to him first, we can't let a rebel minister go, but we can't frame the deceived Zhongliang, right?"

As he spoke, he walked up to Zhang He slowly and asked, "What's your name?"

Seeing that there seemed to be a talkative Prince, Zhang Yun was overjoyed, and quickly said: "My humble surname is Zhang and my name is He."

"Where's the word?" Liu Bian deliberately asked in order to avoid having the same name and surname.

"Word?" Zhang He was stunned for a moment, but he quickly answered Liu Bian: "The word Junyi."

"how to write?"

"..." Zhang He glanced at Liu Bian in astonishment, and explained honestly.

After listening to Liu Bian, he was determined: That's right, it's Zhang Ying and Zhang Junyi!

For such an uncommon word, there should not be a person with the same name who takes the same word.

At the same time, he had already concluded in his heart that what Zhang Yun said was true.

You must know that Zhang He was a famous Cao Wei general known as the "variety" in history, and Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang were still more afraid of him than Xia Houyuan.

In the Battle of Dingjun Mountain, Huang Zhong attacked and killed Xia Houyuan. Although Liu Bei sent people to reward Huang Zhong, he said privately to the left and right: "What's the use of killing Xia Houyuan? If you want to kill, kill Zhang Ying!"

It can be seen Zhang He's deterrent power.

What's even more amazing is that during Zhang Yun's military career, Cao Weifang would basically win if he listened to his advice or directly appointed him as the general; In the end, even Zhang Yun himself was tortured to death by Sima Yi who did not listen to his advice.

All in all, Zhang Xi is a commander who has a great overall view. Even if the general does not listen to his advice and the army is defeated, he can still minimize casualties and at the same time effectively block the pursuing enemy army. Extremely jealous.

What's more, after the Battle of Wuchao, Cao Cao once compared Zhang He, who went to join him, to "Wei Zi went to Yin, Han Xin returned to Han". Zi and Han Xin on a par?
However, these people, who were in Wang Fen's rebellion this time, did not even have a fuss from the beginning to the end, and surrendered easily. This can only show that Zhang He has no idea of ​​​​assisting Wang Fen at all.

It's a pity that he knew these things, but it was difficult for him to tell Huan Dian and Cui Jun.

After thinking for a while, he said with a smile: "I see this person's face is honest and honest, so what he said must be true, let him go."

Faithful face?

Cui Jun and Huan Dian looked at each other, both felt that Shi Hou's words were rash.

"Your Highness." Cui Jun cupped his hands and said to Liu Bian, "I checked his saber and found blood in the sheath."

Liu Bian turned his head to look at Zhang He, and Zhang He hurriedly explained: "Last night, I led the people to retreat, but the Huben soldiers couldn't help but chased and killed them. I could only resist for my life. I swear, I never intended to kill you." one person."

"I believe in you." Liu Bian nodded towards Zhang Yun, and then ordered the two Huben warriors who controlled the latter, "Let him go."

The two Huben warriors looked at Cui Jun upon hearing this.

Cui Jun shrugged helplessly, and nodded to signal the two to let go of Zhang He.

If it was said that Zhang Yun's performance was as eye-catching as Qu Yi's last night, Cui Jun probably hadn't tried to dissuade him for the sake of his subordinates, but Zhang Yun's performance last night was really inconspicuous, just because he was confessed to be the county lieutenant of Fanyang County, He was suspected of colluding with Wang Fen and was arrested by them. Naturally, Cui Jun would not disobey Liu Bian for this matter.

Under Cui Jun's signal, the two Huben warriors let go of Zhang He. Zhang He quickly stood up, and under Xia Houyuan's vigilant gaze, he said gratefully to Liu Bian, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness."

Liu Bian smiled slightly, pretended to look at Zhang He, and then said with a smile: "I see you have a loyal face, you must be a loyal man, don't go back to be a fanyang captain, just follow me in the future, I happen to be in short supply." Guard."

As soon as these words came out, Cui Jun, Huan Dian, Liu Yu, Zhao Chun, and Xia Houyuan all showed astonishment, and the Huben people beside them were even more jealous.

This guy was so lucky to be chosen by Shi Hou as a guard?

You must know that Cao Chun, Shihou's last guard, is now the right prisoner of Habayashi.

Huan Dian hurriedly persuaded: "Shihou, I'm afraid this is a bit inappropriate, it has not been verified that this person has nothing to do with Wang Fen..."

Before he finished speaking, Liu Bian glanced at Huan Dian and said calmly, "Didn't I just say that this man has a loyal face, not like a traitor."

At that moment, Huan Dian subconsciously felt that he was facing the Ling Emperor, and he couldn't help taking a breath. When he looked carefully, he saw a smile on Liu Bian's face again. He raised his hand to pat Zhang Yun's arm, and said with a smile: " I treat Junyi kindly, and Junyi will definitely not harm me. Junyi, don’t you think so?”

Zhang He was flattered, and also surprised that Liu Bian knew how to buy people's hearts at such a young age. After thinking about it for a while, he swore to the sky: "If Zhang He has the slightest intention of harming His Highness, heaven and man will kill each other!"

"well!"

Liu Bian said hello repeatedly, turned around, went to Cui Jun's chair and sat down, looked at the list and said, "Let's arraign the next one, the next one... Qidu Wei Jushou."

Cui Jun, Huan Dian, and Liu Yu looked at each other. During this time, Zhang He was happy to get a blessing in disguise. He walked up to Liu Bian and stood behind him.

After a while, Hubenshi followed Liu Bian's instructions and brought the riding captain Wei Jushou.

At this time, Liu Yu was qualified to sit under Liu Bian because of his seniority, while Cui Jun and Huan Dian stood on both sides.

Seeing Jushou being brought by the Huben man and kneeling silently, Huan Dian shouted, "Jushou, are you guilty?"

After hearing the words, Ju Shou was silent for a moment, then knelt down and said, "Ju Shou was convicted and willing to lead his death. I just ask the imperial court to pardon my family. They don't know the crime I committed."

His words were calmly filled with begging, and it was clear that he had already planned to die, which made Liu Yu feel unbearable.

Liu Yu even blamed secretly: I was still thinking about how to protect you, why did you plead guilty by yourself?

But this also saves Liu Bian from interrogating Jushou's name - the one who has such a willingness to go to death must be the loyal minister Jushou who was believed in history to never turn back to Yuan Shao.

Seeing that Huan Dian raised his hand and was about to order someone to drag Jushou down, Liu Bian stretched out his hand to stop him: "Wait! ... Jushou, let me ask you, are you conspiring with Wang Fen, not being deceived by Wang Fen? You think it over before answer."

"Yes."

Ju Shou obviously didn't know that Liu Bian intended to protect him, so he replied calmly: "Before the army was raised, the governor Wang had informed me of this matter, and I also agreed to assist him."

This... nothing to wash.

Cui Jun and Huan Dian were also surprised that Jushou cooperated so well, but since Jushou had pleaded guilty, they didn't ask any more questions, but Liu Bian was still working hard, and asked Jushou, "What did Wang Fen say?"

Ju Shou raised his head and peeked at Liu Bian in bewilderment, Xu was puzzled: I have already pleaded guilty, why do you still ask?

However, he still answered Liu Bian: "Wang Fen told me that today I am ignorant, and I favor eunuchs and villains and alienate scholars and gentlemen, and I intend to support the Marquis of Hefei as emperor."

Liu Bian's heart moved: "Have you met the Marquis of Hefei?"

Ju Shou was stunned, shook his head and said, "I haven't seen it before."

Liu Bian clapped his palms and said with a smile: "Since you have never met the Marquis of Hefei, how do you know whether he is wise or stupid, wise or stupid?...Just risking your life and family to rebel against Wang Fen with your family members in the countryside, and you still say you are not Be deceived by him?"

"Uh, this..."

Ju Shou was dumbfounded by the words, and looked at Liu Bian suspiciously for a while.

He didn't understand why the Prince, whom he had never met before, wanted to speak for him.
