Zheng Anping said: "If you hide your life secretly, what can you do?"

Cao Baodao said: "Don't worry about your orders. If you are on the run, your Majesty may not be able to hide. Mr. Zhang thinks that Fan Ju, your Majesty must be hiding because of your orders! Don't worry about it, don't worry about it!"

Zheng Anping asked: "What do you mean?"

Cao Baodao said: "Mr. Fan, the king of Qi values ​​​​a talented person. Would you rather not cherish him? You must hide him for future use."

Zheng Anping said: "What can I do? What I have hidden is not Mr. Fan! Would you rather not be blamed by your Majesty?"

Cao Baodao: "It's not what you say. Guan Ling told the truth and Mr. Zhang misunderstood his meaning. It's not because Guan Ling deceived each other."

Zheng Anping achieved the purpose of his visit. After chatting for a few words, he left. Returning to the back house, he said to the slave: "Mr. Zhang took Zhang Lu as Fan Ju, which is wrong. If Mr. Zhang takes this, he will repay you."

, this is to deceive the king, what can be done?"

The little slave said: "But I wrote it to you. Is it okay to say that it is wrong?"

Zheng Anping said: "No. Fan Ju is a traitor to the country. How can he hide it and not report it? This is a mistake for the emperor."

Gai Nie said: "What's the difficulty? If you don't ask for it, nothing will happen to you. If you ask for it, nothing will happen to the Fan family."

Zheng Anping said: "I can't find anything, so what can I do?"

Gai Nie said: "Fan has nothing to do, Father Zheng should tell the truth about his feelings."

Zheng Anping said: "It's not like that!" He sat in the back house with a heavy heart, looking up at the sky. Ge Nie and Xiao Nu sat quietly beside him for a long time.

The news got louder and louder. Even Brother Su and Brother Dog heard the news and ran over to ask Zheng Anping what was going on. Zheng Anping only told them the contents of the conversation with Cao Bao. The two sympathized with him, but to Zheng Anping

Anping felt helpless regarding the matter of taking in the fugitives. He could only pray to God for blessing and Lord Xinling would not pursue the matter.

At this moment, Zhan San, who had been missing for a long time, suddenly appeared. The patrolling Xiaosi took him to the field and found Zheng Anping who was busy with farming. Zheng Anping was surprised, but he politely let him go to a grassland by the river.

We sat down and started chatting like old friends. Seeing that nothing happened, Xiao Si led his men to continue patrolling. Seeing Xiao Si walking away and no one else around, Zhan San said sternly: "Mr. Zhang Lu asked Wei Shu to pay homage to the young master!"

Zheng Anping was shocked, looked around and said, "How do you know Mr. Zhang?"

Zhan San said nonchalantly: "Not only do we know Mr. Zhang Lu, but we also know that Mr. Zhang is from the Fan family!"

Zheng Anping stared at Sou San for a while and said, "What's the matter with Brother Sou?"

Shan Sandao: "We are a humble concubine who pays homage to Mr. Zhang Lu for his life. Mr. Zhang Lu came to Qin and became a guest. However, Mr. Zhang has no relatives in Qin. The young master and Mr. have known each other in times of adversity and have unparalleled loyalty. Mr. Sir, I wish you to speed up.

Join the Qin Dynasty and share the wealth and honor."

Zheng Anping laughed miserably and said: "I am now in the position of governor. I have a wife, young servants at home, and colleagues and brothers on my left and right. How can I be killed?"

Zhi San said: "If all the princes are willing to go to Qin together and share the wealth and honor, Zhang Qing will definitely accept his offer. If not, I will only report death and there will be no other hindrance!"

Zheng Anping said: "Just like us, how can we die!"

Zhi San said: "Young master, don't worry about it. I don't know how many people die every day. But if you wear the clothes of the master and sink by the middle of the river, and die after a few days, how can you distinguish them? There must be no other reason."

Zheng Anping asked: "Who sent my brother here?"

Shansandao said: "I serve Duke Mang. I was born in Qin and communicated with Duke Mang. Now I have been ordered by Duke Mang to meet with the young master to express my wishes."

Zheng Anping asked: "Sir, why do you understand Mang Gong?"

Zhi San said: "This is beyond the knowledge of ordinary people."

Zheng Anping asked: "Sir, when do you want me to set off?"

Zhi San said: "Young master, you can take care of yourself. But when you enter a humble house, you will know."

Zheng Anping said: "Mr. Zhang returned to Qin, and he also received help from Brother Shen?"

Zhi San said: "It's still unclear."

Zheng Anping felt as if his head was heavy, as if there was a huge net covering the sky and the earth, covering it airtight. He even suspected that the news that Zhang Lu was Fan Ju came from this net. He did not agree or object, because

He is still not sure where his relationship with Lord Xinling will go. If the relationship breaks down, Lord Xinling will definitely not let him go. Then the road of Zhan San will be useful.

He carefully asked about Zhang Lu's affairs in Qin. Shen San seemed to be very familiar with it, and he actually spoke eloquently. He told Zhang Lu about the construction of the Yi Canal and the construction of the Shu County in detail. Zheng Anping listened carefully.

After all, although he had no idea where Yiqu was and where Shu County was, he understood the details of those things.

, no flaw was found, this seemed to be what Zhang Lu did, and he understood that what Zhang Lu did was a great achievement in opening up territory. Zheng Anping was a little moved. In the Wei State, even if it was only a fifty-mile territory

, have attracted countless people to covet them. If they could open up territory and expand thousands of miles in the Qin State, how glorious it would be!

The two chatted for half a minute, then Zheng Anping took out a gold cake from his arms and handed it to Zhan San, as if Zhan San was just here to collect protection money and chat for a while. Zheng Anping understood and put the gold cake in

In arms.

After sending Pig San away, Zheng Anping returned to the fields and continued working. He pretended to be unintentional and said to Wu Wang: "If I are going somewhere else, will you go home or follow me?"

Wu Wang said: "Since I am the son of a concubine, I should go with him."

Zheng Anping said: "The mountains are high and the rivers are long, why don't you miss home?"

Wu Wang said: "Think about it. Now that I have inherited the master, I dare not fall in love. Where will the master go?"

Zheng Anping said: "There are old friends who have made meritorious deeds in other places, or who have gone to join them."

Wuwang said: "Your Majesty has also entrusted my father to govern. Is it possible to win in another country?"

Zheng Anping said: "Although Guan is granted a seal, the number of households is no more than a hundred. If an old friend is granted a title, it may be a thousand households."

Wu Wang said: "In this case, how can we get the land?"

Zheng Anping said: "It's like managing a city for thousands of miles, but even a thousand households can't cover it."

Wuwang also became more energetic and said: "If so, please follow me! I will take one hundred acres...one hundred and fifty acres...two hundred acres!"

Ten days later, Mr. Zhang Zhuo came to Guanyi again. This time, he came in short brown color and obviously did not want to reveal his identity. Cao Bao hid him in the school room and secretly informed Zheng Anping. Zheng Anping came over quickly.

Zhang He said to Zheng Anping: "The prime minister of Wei must be sure that Zhang Lu is Fan Ju. He must ask the young master to go out to Zhang Lu to test his integrity."

Zheng Anping said: "Zhang Lu was old and ill and passed away at home!"

Zhang He said: "If it affects the elders, the tomb must be opened to check."

Zheng Anping said: "What is your order?"

Zhang He said: "Your Majesty said that the young master can transfer the matter to Su Wei and Cao Cheng, and go to Daliang in person to explain everything. Your Majesty will make the decision, and Prime Minister Wei will not dare to force you. An envoy from Prime Minister Wei will arrive in three to five days, Your Majesty.

The minister ordered me to give you a warning, and you will be well prepared."

Zheng Anping knew that the big net had been dropped, and he had no choice but to join Zhang Lu. Of course, it was not that he did not want to take this path, and he even had some expectations. Zhang Noi's words only made him make up his mind and set off immediately.

.

Zhang Jue came in secret, not daring to stay long. After a few secret discussions with Zheng Anping and Cao Bao, he left immediately. No one else knew Zhang Jue had been there.

After sending Zhang Ye away, Cao Bao turned to Zheng Anping and asked, "What's Guan Ling's plan?"

Zheng Anping asked Cao Baodao: "Mr. Cao must have something to teach me?"

Cao Bao said: "Now that the matter has come to this, Guan Ling can either return to Daliang and serve as a prisoner, or flee to avoid disaster. Guan Ling will choose."

Zheng Anping said: "I would like to take the advice from the leader! I would like to gather with others and seek his advice."

Cao Bao said: "Here you go!" He went out to the post and asked the postman to inform the officials to gather at the Guanling Mansion to discuss confidential matters. After a while, all the officials gathered and went to the hall. Zheng Anping quietly asked the slaves and

Ge Nie hid behind the screen and listened secretly to the discussion, but could not speak out.

Without the usual greetings, Zheng Anping said directly: "It's time for Mr. Zhang Noi to sneak in and tell me something secret. I'll go back after I tell you. I dare you to ask Mr. Cao to briefly describe his intention."

Cao Bao cleared his throat and said: "Mr. Zhang said that Wei Xiangjian recognized that his retainer Zhang Lu was Fan Ju, a traitor to the country, and he must be held hostage. Zhang Lu, my husband, was a fugitive. People now realize that he fled to a foreign country long ago. It is unknown. Today

Even though he is reporting illness and death, Prime Minister Wei will definitely find his tomb and open it to look at it. The messenger will arrive in three days or five days. Sir, he will arrive secretly, so that we can make plans in advance."

After Cao Bao finished speaking, everyone fell into silence. After a long time, Brother Su said, "What do you mean, Your Majesty?"

Cao Bao said: "Your Majesty wants to order the governor to return to Daliang, so explain everything. Your Majesty protects you secretly, and Prime Minister Wei will not dare to force you."

Brother Dog said: "Even if we don't force each other, it is a serious crime to commit suicide privately. Don't go to Daliang!"

Cao Baodao said: "If you don't go to Daliang, you will have to stop there: flee to a foreign country, change your name, and try to make a comeback!"

Xiao Si was a little hesitant and said: "I am fleeing to a foreign country. Where does Brother Zheng go?"

Zheng Anping said: "I have an old friend who was granted a title to another country and called me to surrender. I was hesitating when I suddenly encountered this disaster."

Brother Quan said: "The reason why we become brothers today is because we have our place, so it is convenient for us to die."

Zheng Anping said: "If I die, what will all the brothers do?"

One sentence confused everyone again. Cao Bao explained: "The guilty minister fled, and all his colleagues are guilty!"

Xiaosi said: "But it's not difficult to go home!"

Zheng Anping said: "Brothers, it is not easy to build this house, marry a wife and start a business. How can you bear to abandon it in one day? If I throw myself into prison, my brothers will be spared."

Brother Quan said: "Brother Zheng's words are wrong. If I go to Daliang, my life will not be saved. Even if we return, we will still have our wives and children reunited. This is unimaginable."

Brother Su said: "Brother, you have decided to discuss your fate with us. Do you think we will die together with you?"

Zheng Anping said: "Since we gathered in Liangxi, my brothers have shared life and death together. Brother Ma's funeral was also because I was the oldest. I inherited the inheritance from all my brothers and abandoned their family and business. They stayed with each other day and night. We deserved the honor and the disgrace."

We accept it together. Now that I have passed away, I cannot bear to abandon each other. I would like to hear my brother's wishes."

Brother Su said: "Brother, where are you going?"

Zheng Anping said: "I want to go to Qin."

Brother Su said: "If there is someone from another country, I may follow him. Qin and I have a blood feud, and we swear we will never live together! My brother will leave alone, but my brother is insensitive!"

Xiao Si said: "My wife and father don't want me to leave Daliang. What's more, Qin Ye! I don't dare to obey orders! Even if I am not a commoner, I can only go to a wine shop to protect myself and live with my wife."

Brother Quan said: "If you don't have the burden of a wife and a family, you should follow your brother. Now that you have a wife and a family, you are afraid of being burdened by your brother, so you dare not follow him! If your brother runs away, your brother should abandon his official position and return to the farm, and live in his wife's family.
