Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 297 Kill them all
"Oh? Fellow fellow, listening to what you said, could it be that Mr. Chen's family encountered some trouble?" After all, Zhang Jiang was working in the government and was liaising with everyone. He couldn't understand the meaning behind these words, so he asked a few questions, "What's the matter?" I hope my fellow villager can explain it clearly."

He came here just to spread the news about Chen Zhi, how could he let this matter go, and asked him immediately.

"Actually, it's not a trouble. I don't know where a big man came from. He came to the door and wanted to compete with Chen Jun. His skills are amazing." The man spoke and praised, "You don't know, we are here." There are also a few good men in the city who are said to be able to subjugate tigers, but most of the time, they are chased all over the mountain by the big insect. But this big man who came to the door can chase the big tiger all over the mountain!"

Zhang Jiang frowned when he heard this, and asked: "Is this the person you said is causing trouble? Since he has come to challenge Chen Jun, is it possible that this person who cannot see Chen Zhi is making things difficult for the Chen family?"

"How is that possible?" The man raised his eyebrows, "Not to mention our Pengcheng, but also the whole of Xuzhou, how many people dare to be disrespectful to Chen Jun? What kind of anger did Chen Jun have before he left for his study tour? Does Zhuge Yan of the Zhuge family know? ? Chen Jun was chatting and laughing with him, not to mention other people. After the big man came to see Chen Jun, he was unwilling to leave, saying that he wanted to wait for Chen Jun to come back. "

Zhang Jiang was confused at this moment and couldn't help but said: "Isn't this good? Then where is the trouble?" Such a powerful person didn't cause trouble, so what trouble could there be.

"Didn't I miss the point?" The man was actually a little unhappy and felt that his interest was interrupted. "The problem is this person. Not long ago, several great monks came from the south and said what was going on? Liangshui Temple is also from Hotwater Temple. They say they are here to teach the Dharma. Think about it, this Buddhist family also has enlightened masters. It is said that they have inherited the Taoism of the most holy masters and Laozi. They are also learned people. If we want to spread the law, our county guards and magistrates won’t stop it, right?”

Zhang Jiang couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this. This Buddhist school has been here since it was introduced, and with the help of several powerful princes, it has established a firm foothold. However, because it is a foreigner, it worships foreign gods, disrespects its ancestors, and damages its hair and skin. There are estrangements and differences among other schools. Although metaphysics is booming and the theory of existence and non-existence is prevalent today, many classics and metaphysics masters have gradually accepted Buddhism. But if you want to say that this Buddhism has inherited the orthodoxy of Confucius and Laozi, then It was simply terrifying.

But he wouldn't explain it, he just urged the man to speak quickly.

"Okay, okay, this matter is actually because of the "Master's Comments". You know, "The Master's Comments", this article... Oh, you already know it. It is said that it is very popular in the south, but those great monks don't seem to I like it very much. I suffered a lot from the article, so after I came here, I often got into trouble with the Chen family. Hey, the article was written by Chen Jun. As a result, the foreign man was offended. A few days ago, for some unknown reason, the two sides started to quarrel. Here comes the hand.”

Hearing this, Zhang Jiang already understood, guessed the cause and effect, and said, "But someone died?"

The man glanced at Zhang Jiang and snorted coldly: "Not only were people killed, the three great monks who came to the door had their necks broken by that man. That's not all, the big man even found the monk's place to stay. I will kill the remaining few in one go, all with one blow! Otherwise, this man is so powerful! No wonder he dares to compete with Chen Jun, what do you think?"

His words received no answer, because Zhang Jiang opposite him, as well as everyone accompanying him, were dumbfounded.

After a long time, Zhang Jiang calmed down and asked with some uncertainty: "You mean, these monks came to the door to cause trouble for the Chen family, but they were bumped into by a man, and then they killed all the monks." Kill and leave no one alive?"

"Yes, that's what it means!"

"This... this matter is really not trivial." Zhang Jiang and the adjutant next to him looked at each other, with surprise visible in their eyes, and then asked: "Then how will this matter be dealt with now? What about the murderer? Where are the people?”

"Where can there be anyone? After killing the person, he left. Before leaving, he asked someone to go to Chen's house to say 'you're welcome'. You don't know that the person who sent the message happened to be passing by at the time and was covered in this. The bloody man screamed and trembled with fright. He heard that he still hasn't come back to his senses until today. The Chen family also made a big fuss because of these three words. The monk from the south sent another A few people came over, and even the prefect of the state sent someone to deal with this matter, the entire Chen family is extremely busy."

As soon as Zhang Jiang heard it, he understood that the Chen family was in trouble, but fortunately there was a servant supporting them, so things would not be too bad.

"This news probably hasn't reached Luoyang yet, otherwise it will affect Chen Taipu's reputation. If it's not good, the Taipu will have to keep a low profile until he understands the situation. Maybe someone will make a fuss about it."

After thinking about it, Zhang Jiang winked at the people around him, then thanked the narrator, and hurried to Chen Zhi's manor outside the city, because from the narrator's mouth, they already knew, Now most of the Chen family are gathered there, and the Buddhist disciples from the south have led people to surround the manor these days. It is said that conflicts have broken out between the two sides.

"If my prediction is correct, then the monk is probably from Jiangshui Temple. This temple has a wide network of people and a lot of monks. I heard that there are also warrior monks serving as soldiers. Several mages in the temple also come from wealthy families. There are private soldiers, and if they bring people to besiege the Chen family manor, if something goes wrong, it will be a big problem."

Thinking about it, Zhang Jiang couldn't help but smiled wryly, feeling that his job this time was really not easy.

"Now I just hope that we can rush there as soon as possible and make the news of Chen Zhi being granted the title of General of the North to the public. With such an identity, even if Chen Taipu's reputation is not covered, this matter will not be out of control." Zhang Jiang saw it. It is quite accurate to know that the key problem of the Chen family in Pengcheng is that they do not have their own backbone. Chen Yonggui is the servant, but after all, he is the Chen family in Xiapi. It is actually quite reluctant to protect the Chen family in Pengcheng.

"But with Chen Zhi, the general who conquered the north, the Chen family in Pengcheng will be different. It depends on whether they can catch up, otherwise they will offend Chen Zhi!"

Zhang Jiang was anxious in his heart. He was not afraid of other things, but thought of Chen Zhi's prestige and aura in Lu County. Even King Langya became an apprentice. The prince has no rules and purely depends on his mood. If he finds out about this one day, he wants to give His teacher came forward to pursue Zhang Jiang for a reputation that was unfavorable in the subpoena. Do you think Zhang Jiang was unjust?

………………

At the same time, in the governor's house, Xu Hui's face was ashen. There were three people standing opposite him. The first one was young, but his clothes were luxurious and he was even more arrogant. He looked at Xu Hui and sneered: "This Chen Family, you dare not move? This is something new, the Chen family in Pengcheng is so powerful, even the county guard dare not move, this is to become the hegemony of Pengcheng."

This person's name is Zhang Yang, and he is the nephew of the governor of Xuzhou. His father is an official in the court, and he is in the same boat as Chen Yongshi. Such an attitude is not surprising.

Zhang Chu, the governor of Xuzhou, was personally present when the "Shi Shuo" discussed Taoism. He knew about the grievances between Jiangshui Temple and Chen Zhi. Jiangshui Temple first sent a Ming Dharma monk northward, intending to debate with Chen Zhi and retrieve Unexpectedly, news came later that Chen Zhi's reputation had soared all the way. After arriving in Kaiyang, his reputation was even greater than that of Mingfa Monk.

When the senior officials in the temple saw this situation, they thought it was alright. Chen Zhi couldn't hold on anymore, so they might as well stop looking for him and choose the Chen family to make the fuss, so they sent a monk to pass on the Dharma.

Zhang Chu knew the reason behind it, so he turned a blind eye. His Zhang family was in the court and was not on the same line as the Chen family, but Zhang Chu longed for the style of celebrities and liked Chen Zhi's style. Articles and calligraphy, so if he didn't help Jiangshui Temple to embarrass the Chen family, he would have opened up the door. Otherwise, if the governor of a state wanted to target a family that had just recovered from decline, that family would definitely have a hard time.

As a result, the last news came that the Chen family sent people to kill all the monks who went there. As soon as this news came, the whole Guangling was boiling.

Although there were rumors later that the person who did it was not a member of the Chen family, the influence of this incident was too great. Zhang Chu could not withstand the pressure and had to let the family intervene. This is why Zhang Yang arrived.

As soon as he arrived in Pengcheng, he teamed up with the Buddhist disciples and led many troops to attack Chenzhuang, capture the direct descendants of the Chen family alive, and then deliver them to the government.

However, the identity of the murderer was originally quite vague, and the matter was not conclusive. The county magistrate's office was not cooperative. Xu Hui was originally dissatisfied with the governor's policy favoring the south. In addition, he had a good relationship with Chen Zhi, so he did not let it go. , all withstood the pressure, took the court's laws and did not allow the Buddhist soldiers and servants from the south to take action.

"Xu Hui, I'm just telling you, today, you have to agree even if you agree, and you have to agree even if you don't agree!" Seeing Xu Hui's unwillingness to eat, Zhang Yang smiled coldly and looked at the other party's surprised expression. , smiled and said: "Before I came here, I already ordered them to take action! I want to see, with just a few dozen servants at Chen Zhi Manor, can they really stop my elite soldiers?"

Xu Hui was so angry that his face flushed immediately, and he scolded: "You! Reckless use of swords and weapons, this is lawlessness!"

Zhang Yang waved his hand casually: "No, don't blame me. How many people have the Chen family killed in one breath? How can these be nobles? They are clearly bandits. My soldiers and horses are here to suppress bandits. This is what they do." King Fa! Don’t worry, my uncle will write a letter and explain it clearly to the superiors.”

"Zhang Shaojun, it's not appropriate for you to do this," a young man admonished from the side, "It's better to think long term and take back the fate. Chen Zhi's servants are also well-known, and the Huns are no match for them!"

"Come on! I already know that the Huns were defeated by General Mi of the Mi Army first. One of their troops was routed to Chen Zhi's side, allowing him to take advantage of him. What skills can his servant have?" Zhang Yang glanced at the man and said, "Su Jun, I told you, be more honest this time and listen to me."
