Chapter 5 Rebellion
Lin Xi, a boy weighing more than 100 kilograms, was hit several times in the morning, and his whole body became dazed. From time to time, he would stare at something in a daze. Tears of shame swirled in his eyes, and he was afraid of embarrassment, so he tried not to let them fall.

Lin Chao could understand what this kid was imagining with just one glance, and he didn't bother to enlighten him.

Anyway, after this guy goes to the battlefield one day, he will naturally understand what happened today.

On the contrary, the three Liu Bei brothers remained enthusiastic about Lin Chao, and spent the whole day in a pleasant atmosphere of commercial nonsense.

In his speech and demeanor, Liu Bei was quite intent on wooing him, expressing openly and secretly that it would be fine even if Lin Chao's plan went wrong.

But what he revealed was not very obvious. After all, even if he didn't abandon his official position right now, he was still just a county lieutenant. If he wanted to win over a person like Lin Chao who was filial and honest, and his family was a powerful local, he lacked confidence.

Since he didn't make it clear, Lin Chao was also willing to play dumb.He really wants to join Liu Bei, but now is not the most suitable time for a showdown.

In short, you can't sell yourself too cheaply.

While pushing cups and changing cups, Liu Bei was full of smiles, Guan Yu's reaction was lukewarm, but Zhang Fei was unexpectedly polite to Lin Chao.

At first Lin Chao wasn't quite used to it, but after chatting for a few words, he finally understood the reason.

It turns out that Zhang Fei's family is also a local powerful, plus Zhang Fei likes to make friends with famous people, and in the words of later generations, he is a fanatical star chaser, but he chases the so-called "famous people in the world" selected by the current Qing Dynasty.

Like the "Three Monarchs", they are Chen Fan and Dou Wu who were killed in the last battle of eunuchs and relatives, and of course Liu Shu who was caught in the water at the edge.

Shihlin hated eunuchs. These three guys were in high positions before they were alive, and died because of fighting against eunuchs.

The king is the one who speaks for the rest of his life!

As for whether the three of them are worthy of this title and how much water is in them, just look at the East China Sea next to Xuzhou.

What else are the "Jiangxia Bajun" including Liu Biao, and the "Liangzhou Sanming" including Huangfusong's uncle Huangfugui? Anyway, they are representatives of the Qing Dynasty debated by Shilin.

Let’s not talk about good or bad, but at least this kind of selection in Qingyi circle is very popular, which can be seen from the fact that Zhang Fei is attracted.

As for why he was polite to Lin Chao, it was obvious.

Lin Chao has been filial and honest at a young age, and he will become an official in the court in the future. It is unknown if he also gets a name in the Qing Dynasty. It is always harmless to make friends in advance.

It can be seen from this that everyone in the Han Dynasty now is well-behaved, at least on the surface, they must abide by the imperial court's system.

For Zhang San, a key figure in Liu Bei's camp, Lin Chao naturally had no reason to treat him coldly.During the chat and laughter, everyone was in harmony.

Except for Lin Xi who was still shutting herself in the corner...

A few men bragged together, and naturally they drank more and more alcohol. Rao, the alcohol content was not high, and Lin Chao was also drunk, and was carried back by Lin Xi in the end.

When Ye Linchao fell into a deep sleep, he was still in a daze when he was woken up.

Standing up and rubbing his eyes, he saw two people standing in front of him, Lin Xi and Uncle Fu.

"Lang Jun, the old slave is lucky to live up to his fate!"

Uncle Fu looked tired, but his voice was still steady and powerful.

Lin Chao finally came to his senses, his face became serious, he washed his face, and asked them to sit down.

Looking out of the window, it was still dark, and the room was even darker. Lin Xi lit the candles, and the three of them sat together in the faint light of the fire.

"Uncle Fu, Zhongshan... is it really the opposite?"

Under Lin Chao's serious gaze, Uncle Fu nodded slowly.

Only then did Lin Chao notice that Uncle Fu was travel-laden and exhausted, and even his clothes were torn in several places.

"Uncle Fu, are you going there in person?" Lin Chao frowned somewhat dissatisfied, "Didn't I explain before leaving, just send someone to go. If the piece of Chun Ruo raises an army to make trouble, Uncle Fu, you go in person, wouldn't it be let You are in danger!"

Hearing Lin Chao's accusation, Uncle Fu was not only not angry, but moved.

"Mr. Lang, this matter is of great importance. This old slave dare not lie to others. If the news is wrong, it will not miss the important matter of Mr. Lang."

"Only this time, the next time is not an example!"

Lin Chao put on the airs of the head of the family, and his tone carried an order.

For Lin Chao, his relatives in this life were Uncle Fu and his younger brother Lin Xi, so he naturally didn't want anything to happen to them, even if it was unlikely.

The day before he was going to visit Liu Bei, Lin Chao asked Uncle Fu to send someone to the county to inquire about the news.And at noon the day before yesterday, when Lin Chao asked Liu Bei to temporarily abandon his official position and leave, he ordered Uncle Fu to send someone to inquire about the news again.

The later Lin Dynasty did not read much, but he was very interested in the period of the Three Kingdoms, so he read through the history books of the Three Kingdoms and the Book of the Later Han Dynasty.Therefore, it is well known that in June of the fourth year of Zhongping, there will be a rebellion.

One of the protagonists of the rebellion is Zhang Chun, the current prefect of Zhongshan.

The scale of this rebellion was not small. Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju engulfed the people, burned, killed and looted all the way from Zhongshan to the north, and finally reached Liaodong. was pacified.

And the rebellion is not a trip that can be said and done. Naturally, it is necessary to plan in advance and take action after careful preparation.Although the history books record the June rebellion, Zhang Chun probably started preparations a month or two in advance.

In addition, it was already the end of May, and Lin Chao concluded that the rebel army had already assembled, and they were even ready to harm a vote, and then headed north.

This is where Lin Chao's confidence lies in persuading Liu Bei to wait for two days.

Even if the plan fails, there is no loss to Liu Bei, but he waited two days longer.

Fortunately, my calculation was not wrong.

Liu Bei's boss became a traitor, so the postal supervisor he sent was also a traitor. Liu Bei whipped him not only for nothing, but for merit.

"Uncle Fu, tell me about this trip in detail, try not to miss anything."

Uncle Fu nodded, and began to tell the story of his trip...

Since he received Lin Chao's entrustment the day before yesterday, he did not send anyone there, but led more than a dozen servants to the dangerous place in person, galloped for more than a day, and finally arrived at Lunu County at night.

It was midnight, but the entire Lunu County was not quiet, and it was even extremely noisy. A large area of ​​fire burst out in the city, like the rising sun, illuminating the entire Lunu County blood red.

The fire was also mixed with the screams and cries of the people, and the sound of soldiers killing wildly, and the whole Lunu was like a purgatory on earth.

Uncle Fu concluded that there must be a rebellion in the city, but he didn't dare to approach, and was afraid that the information he received would be inaccurate and that he would betray Lin Chao's trust.

After hesitating for a moment, Uncle Fu gritted his teeth and led more than a dozen servants slowly towards the city wall.

And these more than a dozen domestic servants were selected by Uncle Fu himself, and they are capable, and their wives and children are supported by the Lin family, so their loyalty can be guaranteed.

After a group of more than ten people approached the city wall, they found that the guards were not tight.Most of the soldiers were raping and looting in the city, and only a few or three were ordered to stay to guard the city, naturally listless and cursing.

Anyway, Zhang Chun also had the idea of ​​grabbing a ticket and running away. In addition, Zhang Chun had just launched a rebellion. He thought that it was impossible for an officer to attack him, so he was naturally worried about the city defense.

This gave Uncle Fu a chance. The 40-year-old man suddenly pulled out his sword, and said in a low voice, "Before I leave, the owner of the house has an order to reward ten thousand coins for killing a thief, and one hundred thousand coins for capturing one alive! , all the wives and children are supported by the head of the family, you all come forward with me, kill the thief and get the money!"

These servants didn't know a single word, and they had been attached to the Lin family for generations. Seeing that there were not many enemies in front of them, and they were heavily rewarded, they didn't care whether Uncle Fu's orders were right or wrong, so they rushed forward immediately.

And those guarding soldiers in twos and threes, in their eyes, were just a pile of rewards.

The servants made a surprise attack with sticks in their hands. At the beginning, the situation was overwhelming. After beheading three or four people, the other officers and soldiers also reacted.Fortunately, Uncle Fu didn't like to fight. After catching a living person and binding him up, he beckoned everyone to retreat.

Even so, after Uncle Fu and others fled to a safe place, more than half of them were killed or injured, and there were only five people around them.

Even though he was exhausted, Uncle Fu didn't dare to stay, he galloped through the starry night, and finally rushed back to Anxi at night.He just walked to the door of Lin Chao's room, but was discovered by Lin Xi, thinking that someone was trying to harm his elder brother, so he hurriedly got up and came out.

He has been practicing martial arts for many years, and his sleep is shallow, even the slightest movement will wake him up. After going out to see Uncle Fu, he was relieved and the two went into the room together to wake Lin Chao up.

Hearing this, Lin Chao glanced at Lin Xi in surprise.

This kid actually still has this habit, it seems that he won't follow in Zhang Fei's footsteps...

"Where is the living?"

What Lin Chao asked was naturally the guarding soldiers captured by Uncle Fu.

"The old slave has beaten this man unconscious, tied him up in the front yard, and let his servants take care of him." Uncle Fu replied.

"Okay, follow me to see Duke Xuande."

Lin Chao immediately took the two of them, led by the county government soldiers, to Liu Bei's room.

Hearing Lin Chao's knock on the door in the middle of the night, Liu Bei immediately realized that something important had happened, agreed, and walked out of the room after a while.

"Sir, what is the urgency?"

When Liu Bei was talking, he was still arranging his clothes, and his tone was full of doubts.

"Mr. Xuande, the big thing is not good, Zhang Chun has turned against him!"

Lin Chao pretended to be anxious and shouted, which shocked Liu Bei, and he couldn't react for a long time.

As a county lieutenant, he naturally knew who Zhang Chun was.At this moment, when Lin Chao called him by his first name and said it was the opposite, Liu Bei's first reaction was not to believe it.

"No! Impossible, how could Mr. Zhang rebel against the court, why should he rebel against the court!"

At this time, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were also awakened by the previous movement, and saw this scene just after getting dressed.

Seeing that Liu Bei didn't believe him, Uncle Fu stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Xuande, I was entrusted by the head of the family to go to Lunu the day before yesterday. The rebel army in the city made a riot, and I saw it with my own eyes!"

"Even if there are rebels in Lu Nu, it may not be the work of Lord Zhang. What proof do you have?"

Rebellion is not a joke. Even if Uncle Fu showed up to say it, Liu Bei didn't dare to believe it, and insisted that Uncle Fu come up with evidence.

"Bring it up!"

Uncle Fu greeted him, and two servants of the Lin family dragged a bound soldier in and pressed him to the ground.

"This person is a Lunu rebel soldier, and Duke Xuande will know it as soon as he asks."

Lin Chao pointed to the kneeling soldier on the ground and said.

Seeing that Lin Chao's words were convincing and did not seem to be false, and there were other witnesses, Liu Bei fell silent, and he believed it halfway.

 In fact, Zhang Chun should be the prefect of Zhongshan during the Guanghe period.

  The Eastern Han Dynasty was a prefecture state system, and Zhongshan County should be Zhongshan State. For the sake of content, it will be collectively referred to as prefectures in the future.
