Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 825 Chen’s Six Documents

Two days later, Jizhou, Changshan County, and Zingding County.

A new letter was already placed on Zhang Bin's table. Next to the envelope, there was a cloth bag, which was bulging with many bulges.

Zhang Bin has a thin face, a long beard, a high crown and broad belt, and wide sleeves. He sits quietly, looking at envelopes and packages.

The chief staff member under Shi Le did not rush to open the letter, but asked the person opposite: "Is this letter still sent in?"

The man opposite him was an anxious young man. His name was Zhang Duo. He was Zhang Bin's nephew and a member of the Zhang family. He was one of Zhang Bin's few confidants. He usually Help him run back and forth.

At this time, when Zhang Bin asked, Zhang Duo said: "This time it was not a letter tied to an arrow, but someone sent it. Early this morning, as soon as my nephew got up, he heard someone knocking on the door. , after opening the door, there was a man hiding his head, wearing a hood, covering his face. Without saying a word, he thrust this letter into my hand, and then handed the package over. My nephew did not come back to his senses for a moment. Then it happened, and then the man turned around and left, walking quickly, and in a blink of an eye, he was at the corner of the street, followed by several beggars and vendors outside the door who suddenly started chasing him, and there was a lot of noise. "

Zhang Bin nodded, smiled, and stopped asking. He reached out and unwrapped the package, revealing the items inside, which were several scrolls.

"The general who conquered the north did have his heart in mind, but the gift of something like this was too unorganized and appeared to be insincere." With that said, he stretched out his hand, pulled out a scroll, and unfolded it to take a look. His eyes lit up, "What a calligraphy! I'm afraid this was written by the general who conquered the north. I have long heard that this man is good at calligraphy, and I have seen several people copy it, but I have never seen it written by him." But, now that I see it, it’s really extraordinary! It’s his handwriting that was sent, which makes it seem sincere and interesting.”

With this compliment in his mouth, Zhang Bin looked at it a few more times, and his brows suddenly wrinkled.

"Prajna Sutra?"

He frowned and said nothing, but Zhang Duo across from him couldn't help but said: "Uncle, my nephew is really feeling uneasy."

"Oh?" Zhang Bin looked away from the scroll and looked up at his nephew, "What are you uneasy about?"

Hearing this, Zhang Duo did not answer immediately, but looked around.

At this time, he was in Zhang Bin's house. There were no servants around him, only the uncle and nephew were sitting opposite each other.

After looking around, Zhang Duo leaned forward and whispered: "My nephew originally thought that the commander-in-chief really didn't care. But today I found out that my house is surrounded by spies, including beggars, hawkers, and even pedestrians. Wu and Liu are all spying people, so as soon as that person gave away his things today, someone immediately came to surround him and chase him, alas."

"Is there any surprise in this?" Zhang Bin shook his head and chuckled, "The commander-in-chief is the master of Xiongcai, otherwise, how could he have such courage to establish a foothold in Jizhou? When I sent a few letters before, he said he didn't care, and he really trusted me. Sending someone to monitor is what a master should do, otherwise the people below will feel that it is okay to receive the letter, and if they continue to act like this, sooner or later the people's hearts will be dispersed."

"But what should we do now?" Zhang Duo looked like he was having trouble making a decision. "Since the things this person sent today have been seen by the commander, should we not submit them?"

Shi Le has long allowed Zhang Bin to believe it or not. This shows his generosity and trust in Zhang Bin. In fact, it is also for the other subordinates of the Han family under his command. After all, in Shi Le's team, the Han family It already occupies a large share and cannot be ignored.However, Zhang Bin knew in his heart that the commander-in-chief was not as magnanimous as he showed, and he still cared about it in his heart, but he just kept it hidden, and this information was more or less disclosed to this nephew, so that He usually pays more attention, not to be too ostentatious.

Therefore, Zhang Duo was so worried at this time.

"Things..." Zhang Bin frowned when he heard this and looked at the scrolls, "I still have to submit it, but the content inside may have hidden dangers."

"What are the hidden dangers?" Zhang Duo's expression changed, "Forgive my nephew for being stupid, this seems to be just an ordinary Buddhist scripture."

Zhang Bin didn't say anything. He took out several other scrolls and spread them out one by one. There were still Buddhist scriptures inside, and they were all the "Prajna Sutra". However, although the content of each scripture was understood, the fonts written in it were But since they are different, Xiaozhuan, subordination, regular style, etc., all have their own charms.

Even though Zhang Bin did not intend to appreciate calligraphy, he still couldn't help but praise: "No wonder the general who conquered the north is so famous for his calligraphy. Just these six volumes of characters can be passed down to future generations. The same content, regardless of font, can be called As the 'Six Documents', if it is spread out, the first people who want to come and ask for it will probably be people from the Buddhist family!"

"I'm afraid these six volumes of General Chen's books have some meaning," Zhang Duo sat aside and watched his uncle unfold the scrolls one by one. He was also amazed by the calligraphy in them, but when he heard the name "Six Books", he suddenly felt One thing came to mind, "In addition, I have also read General Chen's book "Buddhism", in which he focused on 'Prajna Studies', which is vaguely divided. Nowadays, there seem to be six sects of Buddhism in the Central Plains. He said that if these pieces of calligraphy were spread, the Buddhist family might not be happy."

"It doesn't really matter whether they are happy or not, but in order to give the believers an explanation, they will come to ask for it." Zhang Bin suddenly sighed as he spoke, "Because this is a conspiracy. If it goes as expected, , I am afraid that the handwritten letter that General Chen gave me today is also a conspiracy, and the few words he sent me are also a conspiracy, and even if he is wise and scheming, there is no way to resist it."

With that said, Zhang Bin picked up the letter in front of him, tore open the envelope, looked at the contents, and finally shook his head and sighed: "As expected, it is indeed so."

"Is it another solicitation this time?" Zhang Duo looked on from the side, "Since this time I sent something and it was seen by the commander-in-chief, then this letter must also be submitted, right?"

"That's right, but that's the problem," Zhang Bin put down the letter, still sighing, "Once this letter is sent out, plus these words and the people who will come, I will be in a difficult situation."

"So powerful?" Zhang Duo was full of doubts. "This is not the first time that General Chen has recruited his uncle. Didn't you always say in the past that General Chen wanted to alienate him? Since we all know about it, what's the point? Are you worried?"

"The problem is this letter," Zhang Bin said, but did not show the letter to his nephew. "This letter helped me analyze the current situation. In my hand, it is a solicitation letter. But when it is sent to the Marshal, it is to teach him how to borrow the Buddhist relationship strategy. It can be said that once this letter is sent, with these words and the people who are coming, no matter how wise the Marshal is, I will act according to what is said above, but the problem is, once this is implemented, not only will my status not be guaranteed, the commander-in-chief will pay special attention to it, and life will be difficult in the future."

As he said this, he suddenly laughed: "To be honest, in the past few letters, I only thought that the general was interesting, but now I have to think about it seriously."

Zhang Duo, on the other hand, was worried and confused. He didn't understand why his uncle could still laugh in such a situation.
