"Okay, that's great! I, Zhang Song, really followed the right person this time!"

Zhang Song is really indescribably happy now.

He thought to himself: I, Zhang Song, was really ignorant just now!

I... I actually thought that His Majesty would be frustrated before Yangping Pass? !

How is that possible? !

You see, with His Majesty's prestige, few of the defenders at Yangping Pass would dare to be enemies.They tied up the chief general and offered to surrender!

What is the prestige of the Holy King!

Whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world!

I saw it today!

Your Majesty's achievements today are comparable to King Wu's defeat of Zhou, and the slaves' defection in the Battle of Muye is even more miraculous!

I turned my back on Liu Yan and chose His Majesty, it was really the most correct decision I made in this life!

With such a lord, why worry that I, Zhang Song, cannot display my talents?

"His Majesty!"

The more Zhang Song thought about it, the more energetic he became, and he took the initiative to invite Ying, saying: "Yangping is closed, Hanzhong is safe, Zhang Lu is at the end of the road! I am willing to persuade Zhang Lu to surrender with a good tongue!"

"Zhang Lu..."

Thinking of Zhang Lu in Nanzheng City, Liu Yan couldn't help showing a playful smile at the corner of his mouth.

Zhang Lu controlled the land of Hanzhong with the five buckets of rice religion, and became the local emperor of Hanzhong County.

However, the reason why Zhang Lu is so powerful is not because he is the leader of the five buckets of rice, but because of his mother.

Zhang Lu's mother, a mid-mature lady, still has a charming charm, and often goes to and from Yizhou Mu Liuyan's mansion.

Liu Yanren is old-hearted, and he hooked up with Zhang Lu's mother when he came and went.

Relying on his mother's pillow wind, Zhang Lu was appointed as a general by Liu Yan, and together with Zhang Xiu, the leader of the Five Dou Rice Sect, captured the land of Hanzhong.

Then, Zhang Lu violently launched an attack, beheaded Zhang Xiu, and swallowed Zhang Xiu's foundation and the land of Hanzhong, the current situation.

So, now, is Zhang Lu grateful to Liu Yan for making him the Lord of Hanzhong?Or do you have resentment towards Liu Yan, resentment that Liu Yan has become your own cheap father?

It's really bad!

Chapter 311 I would rather be a slave of the emperor than a guest of Liu Yan

At this very moment, a fierce quarrel is taking place in Nanzheng City, the prefect's mansion of Hanzhong County.

If Liu Yan wants to carry out such a shocking conspiracy, Zhang Lu must reveal his tone.Zhang Lu was really hesitant about whether to follow Liu Yan all the way to Heihe.

The reason is very simple, Liu Yan became king of Qin with his white body and the merits of fighting hard in battle after battle.

Then, he killed Dong Zhuo, defeated the coalition forces of the 50th Route princes, stepped on the Jingguan made by [-] barbarians, and ascended to the position of the emperor.

Then, within half a year, Dongyi was wiped out, and Beihu all voluntarily surrendered.

With such a character, can Liu Yan really succeed in his calculations?

Once things fail, the consequences are unimaginable!

Zhang Lu really didn't want to follow Liu Yan and do such a dangerous thing.

However, having said that, how could Zhang Lu refuse Liu Yan?

The bond between him and Liu Yan is too deep!

Zhang Lu's mother has become Liu Yan's confinement.This matter in Yizhou, no one knows, no one knows!

Zhang Lu's official position was single-handedly promoted by Liu Yan.

Even if Zhang and Lu do not help each other, once Liu Yan's conspiracy is exposed, will the emperor Liu Yan think that Zhang Lu is Liu Yan's staunch henchman and want to be punished together?

This is really bad!

So, why did Zhang Lu take the initiative to betray Liu Yan?

Or not!

It must be explained that the loyalty concept of scholars in this era is very different from that of Tang, Song, Ming and Qing dynasties in later generations.

An example is very obvious.

When Han Gaozu Liu Bang ascended the throne as emperor, when he was touring the land of Zhao, facing Zhang Ao, the king of Zhao, "it is not polite to sit down".

Translated into later words, it means sitting in an indecent posture.

Zhang Ao married Liu Bang's daughter, Princess Lu Yuan.Therefore, he is both Liu Bang's courtier and Liu Bang's son-in-law!

According to the moral concepts of the Tang, Song, Ming and Qing Dynasties, this matter is a piece of wool, right?

Even familiarity is not formal, this matter can be seen as a sign of Liu Bang's trust and closeness to King Zhao.

However, according to the moral concept of this era, if Liu Bang does not respect King Zhao enough, it is a great shame for King Zhao's subordinates!

What happened to the emperor?

What happened to the emperor?

If you don't respect your lord, you will be damned!

They were furious and plotted to assassinate Liu Bang!

After the defeat, some of these people committed suicide directly.Some would rather endure torture, but also explain to Liu Bang that this matter has nothing to do with Zhao Wang and Zhang Ao, which is really a testament to their strength.

What is the outcome of the case?

Zhang Ao was pardoned.

Many of the survivors who conspired to assassinate Liu Bang became high-ranking officials of the great man.

This is the loyalty concept of scholars in the Han Dynasty!

What they are most loyal to is not the emperor, but their own lord, or the person who makes them an official.

In fact, it wasn't until the Tang Dynasty that Empress Wu Zetian keenly realized that the loyalty of "students" to "teachers" was inappropriate.Invented the palace examination, click to select Jinshi, all Jinshi are "disciples of the emperor"!

It was not until the Song Dynasty that Song Taizu defined the palace examination as a system, and the concept that "scholars should be most loyal to the emperor" was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

It was not until the Ming Dynasty that there was a saying that "the ruler wants his ministers to die, and his ministers have to die".

Zhang Lu at the end of the Han Dynasty received such a great favor from Liu Yan, if he would betray him on his own initiative.He must be reviled by all the scholars!

Therefore, Zhang Lu was in a dilemma and recruited his confidants Yan Pu, Yang Song, Zhang Wei, Yang Bai... to discuss the matter.

"Master, why hesitate!"

Although Zhang Lu is an official in Hanzhong, he is the prefect.However, his main identity is still the leader of the Five Dou Rice Sect.

It is precisely because of this identity that he can hold a heavy army and maintain a strong independence under Liu Yan's command.

Zhang Lu's subordinates also referred to Zhang Lu by the special title "Master" of the Taoist leader of Wu Dou Mi.

Yan Pu, Zhang Lu's chief counselor, said: "Now, you should report Liu Yan's conspiracy to the imperial court immediately. Then, please use the land of Hanzhong as a vanguard to wipe out Liu Yan, the shepherd of Yizhou, and rid the world of such ugly people! "

"This...isn't that good?" Zhang Lu hesitated, "My master owes his success to Liu Zhoumu. If I turn my back on Liu Zhoumu at this time, wouldn't I become a disloyal and unrighteous person?"

"Hehe, loyalty?" Yan Pu sneered and said, "Dare to ask Master, what is loyalty and what is righteousness? Your Majesty will level the world and balance the fields, so that those who cultivate have their fields, those who live in them have their houses, and those who work in them have their property.

Such people are unfaithful, but you are loyal to the cunning villain Liu Yan, you are going to lose the big loyalty and keep the small loyalty!

His Majesty has single-handedly swept away the world, wiped out Dongyi, and subdued Beihu, which is a great contribution to China!

What about Liu Yan?What achievements does he have?Since he came to power, barbarians from the southwest have invaded our Han territory several times, and Liu Yan is indeed my sinner in China!

Your Majesty and other heroes, you don't want to attach yourself to Liu Yan, a sinner.Regarding the current situation, Mr. Yan has a word, dedicated to Master! "

"What?"

Yan Pu said impassionedly: "I would rather be a slave of the Son of Heaven than a guest of Liu Yan!"

"Bullshit! Yan Pu's words are completely bullshit! Shijun must not listen to it!"

Before Zhang Lu could speak, another of his advisors, Yang Song, stepped forward.

Yang Song is greedy for money and greedy, he was fed by Liu Yan with money long ago, he tried his best to speak good things for Liu Yan, saying: "What big loyalty and little loyalty? No matter how good Liu Yan's governance is, what does it have to do with the master? Liu Zhoumu has great kindness to Shijun, if Shijun turns his back on Liu Zhoumu, he will be scolded by the scholars!

This matter is absolutely impossible!Besides, Shijun, think about it... Liu Yan, is it really that scary?If you follow Liu Zhoumu, you have no chance of winning? "

"Isn't Liu Yan scary?"

"It's nothing to be afraid of!" Yang Song tried to persuade him, "Don't mention Liuzhou Mu, let's talk about yourself. There are nearly a million people in Hanzhong. Everyone believes in the Five Dou Rice Religion. Afraid of death, willing to sacrifice everything for Master!

Under your command, there are also loyal and brave generals such as Zhang Wei, Yang Ren, Yang Ang, etc., which may not be worse than Liu Yan's generals!

In particular, General Yang Ren, who is stationed at Yangping Pass, is a first-class military general with undue courage!

With such power in your hands, you still fear Liu Yan, your subordinates are really worthless for you!Do you really hope that this great foundation of yours will be handed over to others? "

"Is it the strength of my master?"

Yang Song's words really moved Zhang Lu a little.

Under Liu Yan's command, Zhang Lu can maintain a strong independence, that is, the emperor of Hanzhong County.However, under Liu Yan's command, I am afraid that he can only be an ordinary county guard.

That's right, no matter how good Liu Yan is, what does he have to do with me, Zhang Lu?

My subordinates are not vulnerable!

Could it be that I would really be like what Yan Pu said, "I would rather be a slave of the Son of Heaven than a guest of Liu Yan?"

I, Zhang Lu, am not that noble!

Yang Song observed his words and expressions, not to mention how happy he was.

He thought to himself: It's done!Zhang Lu was moved by my words!This time, I have fulfilled Liu Zhoumu's great trust, and I will definitely be rewarded!

Today, I, Yang Song, stir up the world with my infallible tongue, which will surely be passed down through the ages!I, Zhang Song, have both fame and fortune, what I did today is perfect!

However, just when Zhang Lu was about to be persuaded by Yang Song and Yang Song was full of ambition——

"Report...report...report!"

A small school staggered and ran into the main hall in a panic, and shouted, "It's not good! It's not good! I'm going to report to Master, something is not right!"

Chapter 312 Knowing the situation of the battle, Zhang Lu was frightened

Why panic?My master knows astronomy from the top, geography from the bottom, calls the wind and rain and sprinkles beans into soldiers, and can communicate with ghosts and gods. What can I do to make my master "not good"?What a big joke! "

Zhang Lu felt pretty good about himself after what Zhang Song said just now.At this moment, he was full of confidence in his own strength, and his voice was full of majesty.

However, the little school's next sentence made Zhang Lu unable to calm down anymore!

"Master, it is the Son of Heaven who has arrived outside Nanzheng City!"

"Ah? What?" Zhang Lu's complexion changed drastically, and he said, "What did you say? You...you say it again!"

It wasn't that he didn't hear the little school's words clearly, but that he didn't want to believe his ears!

The Emperor Liu Yan of the Han Dynasty has arrived, how is this possible?

Didn't he just beat Dongyi and conquer Beihu, and he is slowly returning to Luan, hasn't he reached Luoyang yet?How did you arrive at Nanzheng in the blink of an eye?

And the most important thing!

Why didn't my loyal followers of the Five Dou Rice Sect stop Liu Yan?

Where is Yang Pingguan's guard Yang Ren who was praised by Yang Song as a peerless general just now?How can he be unreliable?

Xiaoxiao's next words completely shattered all of Zhang Lu's luck.

"It is indeed the Luanjia of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, just outside Nanzheng City! Now, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, sent the imperial envoy Zhang Song to come to the city to read the will to you?"

"Ah? If... that's the case? Hurry up! Hurry up, please!"

Zhang Lu was in a panic now, so he quickly ordered someone to open the gate of Nanzheng City and invite Zhang Song to enter the city.

"Your Majesty knows all about Liu Yan's conspiracy! Eunuch Zhang, now, do you want to accompany Liu Yan on the Huangquan Road, or do you want to enjoy the glory and wealth as your Majesty's minister? Now, Eunuch Zhang please say something. And decide!"

Zhang Song is not used to Zhang Lu, calling him "Shijun", but directly calling him Zhang Taishou.
