Chapter 0051 No Need to Say More
When Zhang Biezhi received the bad news, he was just about to go out for some fun with his friends.
Originally, he was very dissatisfied with Chenliu, sometimes complaining about the large amount of water and sometimes about the low mountains. But when he was completely settled down and his brother-in-law was too busy completing the tasks assigned by Xiao Rong and had no time to take care of him, his good days began.
To put it bluntly, he seemed like an old farmer from the countryside coming to the city for the first time. …
He was a man who had traveled a lot. When he went to pick up Xiao Yi's grandson, he had also been to Xin'an County, which was a more prosperous place than Chenliu. The problem was that he was on a mission at that time, and he had to keep an eye on the old man and the child to make sure nothing happened to them. Therefore, he had no chance to experience the fun of Xin'an County. As for men's fun, aren't they just those few things?
There is absolutely no such business in Yanmen County. Perhaps there are some escaped fish among the lowest-level soldiers in places where Qu Yunmie cannot see. Poor people are willing to do such things for a few copper coins, but Qu Yunmie can't do anything about it.
But as for the senior generals who appeared under his nose every day, Qu Yunmie had made it very clear that they were not allowed to enter such occasions, let alone hold such occasions at home.
The reason why Qu Yunmie emphasized such an outrageous order... is because many people really do this, and regard it as a bohemian and elegant thing.
Of course, they would not go so far as to do it right in front of the guests, but they would indeed call many women in to serve them, and then during the drinking, whoever took a fancy to one of them could take that woman away, even if that woman might be his concubine.
As an old bachelor, Qu Yunmie was determined not to allow such dirty things to happen in his army. Although everyone seemed to have no objection on the surface, it was hard to say what they said behind the scenes.
If Xiao Rong were to do it, he might not be as decisive and resolute as Qu Yunmie, because he would consider the thoughts of these senior generals. Most of them fought desperately for promotion and wealth, and promotion and wealth mean that they can live a life of superiority, and the life of a superior person means not treating other people as human beings.
It stands to reason that a qualified ruler should satisfy any needs of his subordinates, but this is too unethical. Isn't this just a blatant pimping?
Fortunately, this was not a practical problem, because Qu Yunmie had already issued the order, and when others came to Xiao Rong, hoping that he could persuade Qu Yunmie not to be so arbitrary, he could sigh, shake his head helplessly, and pretend to be a good person with a clear conscience. …
Most people obeyed Qu Yunmie's orders when they were strictly prohibited. After all, the punishment in the army was no joke. But there were also people who knowingly broke the rules, such as Zhang Biezhi, Young Master Zhang.
He was not afraid of being beaten, and Jian Qiao would always back him up. Even if Jian Qiao was really angry and came with a stick to beat him to death, his beautiful sister would come crying and stop Jian Qiao from doing it.
This made him even more lawless.
Zhang was not the kind of person who doted on her own brothers. In fact, she had always been advising Zhang Biezhi to be honest and not get into trouble again. The problem was that Zhang Biezhi simply didn't listen to her. It should be said that there was no one in this world who could make Zhang Biezhi obedient.
Zhang is not good enough, Jian Qiao is not good enough, and Qu Yunmie is not good enough.
It was precisely because of his arrogant character that in that large-scale betrayal in history, even though it had nothing to do with him, as he was Jian Qiao's brother-in-law, the other party never thought of winning him over and directly regarded him as a die-hard supporter of Qu Yunmie. However, he thought this matter was quite interesting, and he didn't want to be controlled by others anymore, so with a mentality of joining in the fun, he joined the ranks of the betrayers.
His betrayal did not attract Qu Yunmie's attention, after all, Qu Yunmie was extremely worried at that time. But his betrayal was a slap in the face to Jian Qiao. Zhang burst into tears. Jian Qiao was in a very bad mood. He did not want to see Zhang again, so he did not know that Zhang had secretly run away. No one knew how a woman like her entered the enemy camp. She knelt down to Zhang Biezhi and begged him to go back with her. She also mentioned their parents. Her father sent him to the Zhenbei Army, not to see him against his brother-in-law.
This is the part that is not recorded in history. The evaluation of Zhang Biezhi in later generations is that he is a low-profile version of Qu Yunmie. He also has some fans of his own because he died too young, and he was able to become the leader of a force before he was twenty years old, which is worthy of praise in any era.
But people in later generations don't know that Zhang Biezhi was shaken at this time. He betrayed to join in the fun, to be angry, and to prove that he was not like what others said, he could only rely on his brother-in-law. When he came to the camp over there, he even felt a little confused. Why did he come here? How angry were his sister and brother-in-law at this time?
Because he had been protected all his life and had never experienced a real storm, this betrayal was like a child's play in his eyes. He did not realize the seriousness of the matter at all, until someone opened his curtain and saw Zhang appearing there. The other person turned pale, and then drew his sword in anger and chopped Zhang's body. ...
No one knows what the man who killed Zhang was called, because he is not recorded in history. The only thing we can find out is that he had a very bad temper. As soon as he saw Zhang, he knew what she was here for. He thought Zhang Biezhi was going to betray them, so he struck first.
This way of dying is a little funny.
Died from a single thought, died from a misunderstanding, died from meaninglessness.
Zhang was not the first to die like this, nor would she be the last.
What happened that day is still something that history will not record. What history records is that Zhang Biezhi continued to stay in the rebel army for a while, and then when Qu Yunmie attacked, he immediately left with those soldiers who did not want to fight Qu Yunmie head-on. Later, he became independent in the territory of Central Plains. He suffered a lot, and battles of all sizes happened almost every day. He never had a moment of rest. However, no matter what, he never asked others for help.
Therefore, Xiao Rong never expected that he was Jian Qiao's brother-in-law, because during the time when he became famous, he lived as if he had jumped out of a crack in a stone, and there was no record of his origin at all. He came into the world with great fanfare, but died in obscurity. He did not surrender or ask for help, but just rushed forward, and finally died in a hail of arrows as expected.
People live their lives, right and wrong. No one has never made a mistake, and no one is always right. The Zhang brothers and sisters seem a little stupid, especially Zhang Biezhi, who is even hopelessly stupid. However, in another era, their ending would not be like this.
This is the chaotic world. If the elimination rate of human beings in peacetime is only 5%, then the elimination rate in chaotic times is 50%. In an extremely difficult environment, all shortcomings are magnified and become fatal. …
Xiao Rong certainly didn't know about these things that were not recorded in history. He insisted on letting Zhang Biezhi follow him, not to give him a chance so that he would not betray Qu Yunmie again in the future.
Just like Qu Yunmie didn't care about Zhang Biezhi's betrayal, Xiao Rong didn't care either. The threat level of this person was not even up to one star. In history, he avoided Jian Qiao and obviously didn't want to become Jian Qiao's enemy. Even if he was willing to become one, Xiao Rong didn't think he could cause any serious consequences.
After all, how could the low-profile version possibly beat the premium version? …
The reason why he insisted on bringing Zhang Biezhi was because he really felt that Zhang Biezhi would be useful. As for what kind of use he would be, he would know when he arrived in Jinling.
Once Xiao Rong made up his mind, no one could change his mind. Before Zhang Biezhi left the house, his brother-in-law grabbed his neck and told him the bad news.
Zhang Biezhi felt that Xiao Rong was targeting him: "Why do you want me to go?!"
It was a huge trouble when he went to Xin'an last time, why does he have to go again this time?
Jian Qiao looked very disappointed: "Others want to go but can't! Mr. Xiao is a man of great magical powers, and now the king thinks highly of him. This is a good job. Mr. Xiao has specifically asked you to go, so you should be happy!"
Zhang Biezhi: “…………” He couldn’t be happy.
The last time he went back to Chenliu with that old lady, it became an indelible shadow in his life. Xiao Rong was the old lady's grandson, and he was probably not a good person either.
When he thought of how he had been mentally tortured before, Zhang Biezhi's eyes turned and he was about to get angry: "I won't go. Whoever wants to go can go."
Jian Qiao has been busy dealing with all the big and small matters in Chenliu City recently, and he is almost becoming the top contractor in the area. Doing those jobs makes him angry. Now, this brother-in-law who only causes trouble for him dares to refuse Xiao Rong's orders.
Jian Qiao stood up immediately and stared at Zhang Biezhi with extremely terrifying eyes, as if he was about to transform in the next second: "Say it again, if you have the guts, say it again."
Zhang Biezhi: “…………”
Is it really that serious? He is just a scholar, why do so many people listen to him?
