Three Kingdoms: I choose Xiao Qiao and Da Qiao, why are you crying, Diao Chan?

Chapter 468: Snitch! (Thanks to the monthly ticket support from book friends 2024…2138~)

In the study.

Feng Ji closed the door and then looked at Zhang Song who looked puzzled.

Zhang Song deliberately asked:

"Sir, why are you coming to the study instead of taking measurements in your room?"

Feng Ji looked at Zhang Song and sneered:

“I have heard that there is a talented person in Yizhou who is well-informed and knowledgeable, but he is short and crude.

"This man's surname is Zhang, his given name is Song, and his courtesy name is Ziqiao.

"And you just called yourself Song Zhang. Song Zhang Song Zhang, in reverse, isn't that Zhang Song?"

Seeing that Feng Ji had guessed his identity based on these details, Zhang Song was immediately amazed and immediately flattered:
"You are indeed worthy of being Yuan Shao's number one strategist. You are truly extremely intelligent!
"Since you have already guessed it, I will not hide it any further.

"I am Zhang Song from Yizhou, and I am honored to meet General Feng!"

Seeing Zhang Song bowing, Feng Ji quickly supported his arm:
"If I remember correctly, you should be serving under Lu Bu now.

"Why do you suddenly come here to look for me?"

Looking at Feng Ji's burning gaze, Zhang Song smiled as usual:
"You are so smart, haven't you guessed why I came here?"

Feng Ji narrowed his eyes slightly, stroked his goat beard and said:

"Are you planning to persuade this guard to be your internal support?

"When you attack Wudu County, I will cooperate with you from inside and outside to capture Xiabian City?"

Zhang Song clapped his hands and chuckled:

"You are truly resourceful!

"It's a pity that the young emperor didn't keep such a great talent like you by his side and made use of it. Instead, he sent you to such a remote place to guard it. It's such a waste of talent!"

These words undoubtedly touched Feng Ji's heart.

But he also knew that the other party was here to persuade him.

Although he likes to speak ill of others, he will never give in to others easily.

So he said coldly:

"Don't provoke me. I have already pledged my loyalty to the court, and I will not easily change my target of loyalty!"

Seeing Feng Ji say this, Zhang Song continued to persuade him:

“When I meet a military commander, I often hear him say: A wise bird chooses a tree to roost in, and a wise minister chooses a master to serve.

“There is also a saying: A man will die for the one who understands him, and a woman will dress up for the one who pleases her.

"Since you are not welcomed in the court, why don't you give up your dark ways and join the light and serve under Lord Chu?
"A fool like me can still serve Lord Chu.

"If you go there, even Zhou Gongjin and Guo Fengxiao cannot compare to you!"

Zhang Song's flattery made Feng Ji feel extremely comfortable.

However, Feng Ji was well aware that the risk of betraying Yang Feng was very high.

If you fail, you will be beheaded and your family will die as well!
So after thinking for a moment, he shook his head and refused:

“Although your words are reasonable, the orthodoxy of the world ultimately lies with the Han Dynasty.

"Now the Han Dynasty has shown signs of revival, and the emperor has firmly occupied the three states of Liang, Si, and Bing.

"We, the Han officials, should support the Han Dynasty and help the emperor pacify the world.

"Why would you take such a huge risk to help Ni... to help Lord Chu?"

Zhang Song shook his head without hesitation:
"No, no! The decline of the Han Dynasty is not only reflected in national strength and territory.

“Since I entered Wudu County, I can still see starving people everywhere and the people are living in misery.

“This is almost never seen in the Chu territory.

"Even if the current emperor is determined to revive the Han Dynasty, he cannot defeat the officials and aristocratic families who exploit the people. "Your Majesty, if he cannot see the misery of the lives of the lower-class people, he will never be able to restore the Han Dynasty!"

After hearing Zhang Song's words, Feng Ji grinned and revealed a bitter smile:
"Can Lu Bu do what your majesty cannot do?
“Even if he can restrict the noble families for a while, he can’t restrict them forever.

"As the saying goes, the aristocratic family remains unchanged, but the emperor changes with time.

"Even when Lu Bu dies in the future, it will not be possible to change the powerful control of the aristocratic families over the world!"

Zhang Song took a deep breath and said with more emphasis:

“I have great confidence in my master!
"He has a genius mind that transcends the mundane world, and he will surely find a perfect solution to the problems of the aristocratic families in the future!

"...We have strayed off topic. Are you really unwilling to cooperate with our army and join us with this achievement?"

Feng Ji's eyes flickered slightly, and after pondering for a long time, he shook his head with difficulty:
"This guard...does not want to take any risks."

Zhang Song sighed helplessly:
"In that case, I have also made a contribution. Your Excellency, please arrest me and take me to Yang Feng to claim the reward!"

Feng Ji was startled for a moment, then snorted coldly:
"Your Excellency, do you look down on me like this?
“Although I am unwilling to take risks, your willingness to take risks and come here has earned the respect of this guard.

"Before this guard regrets anything, you should leave immediately!"

Having said that, Feng Ji turned around, opened the door, and made a gesture of invitation to Zhang Song.

Seeing this, Zhang Song could only bow to Feng Ji, put down the Shu brocade in his arms, and walked out of the study quickly.

Feng Ji looked at the other person's departing back with a complicated look in his eyes...

When Zhang Song returned to the restaurant room, Yan Liang immediately got up from the bed and noticed Zhang Song's helpless expression. He quickly asked:

"Have you ever seen Feng Ji, sir?"

Zhang Song nodded and told the other party what happened to Feng Ji.

Hearing that Feng Ji was unwilling to take the risk of cooperating with them, Yan Liang's eyes suddenly flashed with murderous intent:
“This Feng Ji used to like to speak ill of others in front of Yuan Benchu.

“But I didn’t expect that he is such a coward!

"Sir, why don't you take me there again so I can convince him!"

Seeing Yan Liang's face full of indignation, Zhang Song waved his hand and smiled again:

"Don't worry, General. I already guessed that Feng Ji would not easily agree to our request.

“So we prepared another plan.

“And if the general goes to persuade him now, he will most likely not agree.

"Why not wait until my filing is successfully implemented, and then let the general go to persuade him. By then, Feng Ji will most likely agree."

Seeing that Zhang Song had prepared other plans, Yan Liang's eyes flashed with surprise, and he nodded in agreement:
"Okay, let's do as you say, sir!"

The corners of Zhang Song's mouth slightly raised, revealing a cunning expression, which made Yan Liang feel a little scared.

That night.

In the prefect's mansion.

Yang Feng, who once served under Li Jue, was appointed by Liu Xie as the prefect of Wudu County.

At this moment, he was boiling water and making tea in the room.

At this moment, Guo Tai, the former leader of the Baibo Army, walked in through the door with an anxious look on his face:
"General Yang, this is bad! My servants reported that Feng Ji seems to have had some contact with the envoys of Lu Bu's army recently.

"I'm worried that this guy might do something detrimental to our army!"

Yang Feng immediately turned his head and looked at the other party:

"Is the news reliable?"

Mrs. Guo nodded solemnly:

"It was the guard at the gate of Feng Mansion who came to inform on me. I think he could be right!"
