please make me king

Chapter 44 Backfires
It turned out that Zhang Shun saw that Zhang Shenyan was also surnamed Zhang, so he threatened him that if he refused, he would pretend to be his son and spread the word.In this way, not only Zhang Shenyan could not be a loyal minister, but he had to be ransacked and exterminated by Emperor Chongzhen whom he was loyal to.

I have to say that Zhang Shun's move is very shameless, and the effect is very good.Zhang Shenyan was at a loss in his eagerness.So Zhang Shun took the opportunity to say: "Following me may not mean being a thief, and you may be a Xu Shu who entered Cao Ying without saying a word, and it may not be impossible!"

Zhang Shunxin thought: I can't get your heart, I want to get your people, as long as you follow me, there are plenty of ways to deal with you slowly.

Zhang Shenyan thought for a long time, and said angrily: "I am not your father, and you are not my son, already disloyal, how can you be unfilial?"

Zhang Shun chuckled, but said nothing.Zhang Shenyan said helplessly: "That's all, let you go, I don't know where I was tossed to death with my old bones."

Zhang Shun was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "Shenwu's inferior father! Wukong let go of this person for now."

"No learning and no skills!" Zhang Shenyan said angrily, "The master of Yafu is the overlord Xiang Ji, a warrior who has no place to die."

"Yafu taught me the lesson!" Zhang Shun was not angry either.

"Since you want me to follow you with my old bones, let me say goodbye to my family first. It's all about children's affection. I'm afraid you will see a joke and just keep at the door. I don't know if you are afraid of me. Get the old bone over the wall and escape?" Zhang Shenyan said aggressively.

"Where is it, it's hard to follow Yafu's words, so let's trust Yafu." Zhang Shun promised with a row of chests.

"It's so good." Zhang Shenyan patted the dust off his body, then approached the room without hesitation about Zhang Shun's soldiers and horses around him.Zhang Shun's subordinates immediately looked at each other in blank dismay: Is this the surrender?What about the promised loyal minister's death festival?
At this time, Zhang Shun also felt that the matter was inexplicably smooth, but from his point of view, it was actually understandable.Loyalty and filial piety have been difficult since ancient times. In ancient times, loyal officials and righteous scholars were mostly personal ethics. After the death festival, which family's descendants did not enter the imperial court?If a personal family is involved because of loyalty, it is indeed possible to give up loyalty and protect filial piety, and give up the country to protect the family.

It's a pity that Zhang Shun didn't know that in history, the peasant army captured Yangcheng, Zhang Shenyan's son jumped off the cliff and died, and Zhang Shenyan died of gangrene on his back after the death of the Ming Dynasty.Both father and son are loyal ministers and righteous men, how can they surrender to thieves at will?

When that Zhang Shenyan walked into the house, his son's expression was unswerving, with a sense of responsibility.Zhang Shenyan pretended not to know, and wept with his wife, concubine and grandchildren, saying goodbye.After waiting for a while, it was estimated that no one was watching, so I looked through the window and door to make sure there was no one.Nai whispered to his son Zhang Luxuan and said: "Remember Luxuan, after I leave, you Wanwu will bring a message to Governor Song Tongyin: If Zhang's thief is not eliminated, the Ming Dynasty will be in danger!"

"It's just a thief on the left and right, why is it here?" the son asked strangely.

"I have been a father and an official for many years, and all kinds of people have traces to follow, but I have never seen such a powerful and unconstrained person. In order to seek talent, he is willing to accept someone as his father. He is really a treacherous and evil generation. He has great desires, but he does not have great ambitions, so he must not act like this. This person thinks that his father sees him as a ruffian like Han Gao, a villain like Wei Wu, a patient like Gou Jian, and aspirations like Huang Chao. If he gains power, I am afraid that the Ming Dynasty will not be safe. , the people of the world will not be at peace!" Zhang Shenyan said solemnly.

"My son will definitely fulfill his mission!" Seeing his father's seriousness, Zhang Luxuan immediately promised to complete the mission. Then his son thought about it and asked, "Then how can father escape from the enemy camp?"

"Feeding a tiger with one's body, how dare you seek perfection? In order to serve the country with one's body!" Zhang Shenyan said relaxedly.

After hearing this, his son Zhang Luxuan bowed to Zhang Shenyan without saying a word, knowing that he meant to die.

Afterwards, Zhang Shenyan put away his face, pushed the door and walked out.At this time, Zhang Shun couldn't help but laugh and said: "Since I know that Yafu will never abandon me, what do you think?"

Both left and right expressed their admiration for Zhang Shun's judgment.Zhang Shun cheerfully stepped forward to support Zhang Shenyan and said, "Yafu, don't you bring some luggage?"

"Oh? You still need my old bone to bring your own dry food in your camp?" Zhang Shenyan sarcastically said.

"Where is it, let alone you, Yafu, even if your whole family comes here, we can all afford it!" Zhang Shun is not a talkative generation.

"Hmph!" Zhang Shenyan didn't waste his time arguing with him, and said directly, "I'm already fifty-three this year, and I can't travel long distances. If I don't have transportation, I will die on the road."

"Where is it, An can let Yafu walk? I have a bullock cart here, which is quite simple, and it is a contemporary thing. I hope Yafu will not be offended." Zhang Shun said with a smile.

Zhang Shenyan didn't speak anymore, and climbed into the bullock cart since ancient times.Seeing that he was old, Zhang Shun quickly helped him to the car.At this time, Chinese vehicles did not have shock-absorbing technology, and most horse-drawn carriages were bumpy and difficult to drive, and elegant people often traveled in ox carts, which was not considered an insult to such a high-ranking official.

When he got into the car, Zhang Shun's face turned cold.He wasn't particularly suspicious of him taking refuge in him at first, but now that he didn't even bring his luggage, it was enough to show that this person had other intentions.In this way, whether I have recruited a talent or a scourge depends on my own means.

This village of Tuncheng is exactly where Qinshui is shallow, and across the river is Wangchuan Village.Zhang Shun and the others had no interest in harassing other villages, and went west on their own.Along the way, Zhang Shenyan didn't speak, just asked for some food when he was hungry, and some water when he was thirsty.

At this moment, Zhang Shun was no longer in a relaxed mood.Originally, I avoided the city and moved around. Unless I was unlucky and happened to bump into officers and soldiers, I was not in a hurry to find the peasant army fleeing from Shaanxi.

Now that Zhang Shenyan is brought with him, he is in a cocoon.Zhang Shun originally recruited a talent, but now it seems that he has brought a burden, and I don't know how the Zhang family will deal with them after they leave, and whether they will report their whereabouts to the government.

After several days like this, Zhang Shun and the others finally reached the border of Qinshui County.However, Zhang Shun heard a bad news.It turns out that the Peasant Army attacked Qinshui County in April and killed officers and soldiers Ningwu Defensive Mengzhong.Later, the guerrilla general Zhang Zan came to support, but the peasant army was in a bad situation and had already retreated to the eldest son.

The eldest son county is to the north of Qinshui County and belongs to the boundary of Luzhou.Zhang Shun had no choice but to command the troops to turn north.Zhang Shun searched all the way, inquired about the news all the way, and learned that the peasant army running around was Laohuihui, Bajingang and other tribes, and their leader was Zijinliang.At first glance, they are all cannon fodder-like characters, but they are not the "Chuang Wang" Li Zicheng in his imagination.
