The Jagged Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 782 Chapter 781 Crime
In the big tent of the Chinese army, Zhang Liao sat there very angrily, thinking of Wenpin's actions would make him extremely ashamed.If Huang Zhong hadn't heard it with his own ears, Zhang Liao would never have imagined that Wenpin would do such a thing.

Since Zhang Liao took office in Jingzhou, Zhang Liao took over all Jingzhou's troops from Sima Yi. During his contact with the four main Jingzhou generals, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, Wenpin, and Li Tong, Zhang Liao gradually felt that Wenpin was A talented person, and Wenpin is several years younger than himself, just like his younger brother, the two have a lot of common language. Over time, Zhang Liao has increased his trust in Wenpin , and even let Wenpin serve as an officer in the Chinese army. No matter where he goes, he always likes to take Wenpin with him, and he has great expectations for Wenpin.

In comparison, Huang Zhong is older, Wei Yan is a stunned young man, Li Tong is a boring gourd, and only Wen Pin is more interested in Zhang Liao, so apart from the superior-subordinate relationship, there is more between the two. A layer of brotherhood.In addition, Zhang Liao always cherishes the memory of his dead brother, and Wenpin is more or less similar to his brother, which makes Zhang Liao pour more emotion into Wenpin.

However, all this became complicated with the arrival of Huang Zhong.

Perhaps it was because Zhang Liao trusted Wenpin too much that Wenpin was allowed to do such a thing, which really made him heartbroken.

"Governor, General Wen is out to see you!" A soldier came in from outside, came to Zhang Liao's side, and whispered.

As soon as Zhang Liao heard this, he said to the soldiers: "Let him in!" His tone was actually very blunt.

Of course the soldiers knew why Zhang Liao was angry, he walked quickly outside the tent, and saw Wen Pin was complacent, as if he didn't know the imminent disaster, he wanted to remind Wen Pin, but Zhang He opened his mouth, but didn't say anything, but said calmly: "The governor has been waiting for you inside for a long time!"

The soldiers opened the curtain, and Wenpin strode in, with a faint smile on his face, even walking with high spirits, seeing Zhang Liao sitting in front of the table with a golden knife. Looking down, looking down at a map of Nanzhong in front of him, he walked up to Zhang Liao, clasped his fists and said, "The last general will see the governor!"

Zhang Liao kept his head down, didn't raise his head, but held back the anger in his heart, lowered his voice, and asked, "Is everything done?"

"Report to the Governor, everything has been done, and news will come back soon." Wen Pin didn't notice the slightest strangeness, and said to himself.

"Okay, I see, you go down first. Your people will come back in a while, remember to notify me." Zhang Liao didn't look up from the beginning to the end, but said slowly.

Wen Pin noticed something strange, felt that something was wrong with Zhang Liao, but everything seemed to be normal, he saw that Zhang Liao was always paying attention to the map in front of him, so he stopped disturbing him, and said with cupped hands: "The last general will leave."

As soon as the words fell, Wen Pin turned around and walked out of the tent. It was only then that Zhang Liao raised his head and looked at Wen Pin's leaving back. His eyes were full of anger, but more of it was self-blame. Even today, I can't get rid of my relationship with him.

It was quiet in the big tent, it was too late to pursue who was responsible at this time, the important thing was how to punish, so as to be able to convince the public.

Wenpin is rigorous in running the army and well-leading troops. This is his more capable side, but at the same time, his character is a bit perverse. At least after being valued by Zhang Liao, this fatal weakness has been shown more and more. Even Huang Zhong, who has always been indifferent to the world, was offended by him.

If Huang Zhong hadn't accidentally discovered what happened this time, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Once the people from Wenpin came back and told Zhang Liao that Ma Chao was pretending to be sick, Zhang Liao would definitely take action, not give Ma Chao any chance to breathe, and use extraordinary means to control Ma Chao just in case.

But in fact, is Ma Chao really sick?
This is also where Zhang Liao was more puzzled. Therefore, when Huang Zhong informed Zhang Liao of the shameless behavior that Wenpin was going to take, Zhang Liao made a decisive decision and asked Huang Zhong to take a military doctor with the best medical skills in the entire army to visit Ma Chao. Find out what's really going on.

If Ma Chao was pretending to be sick, then Zhang Liao would definitely not sit idly by. If Ma Chao was really sick, then he must take immediate action to prevent the country from losing a general.

Time passed bit by bit, and Zhang Liao couldn't remember how long it had been. It wasn't until the soldiers came in again, saying that Wen Pin came to ask for an interview, that Zhang Liao came back from his thoughts.

"Let him in."

Not long after, Wenpin came in from the outside with a man dressed as a soldier, and then the two saluted Zhang Liao together, then Wenpin happily came to Zhang Liao's side, and couldn't wait to say to Zhang Liao: "Qi Report to the Governor, as I expected, Ma Chao is really pretending to be sick!"

Zhang Liao looked at the cheerful Wenpin expressionlessly, and did not say a word for a long time.

Zhang Liao looked at Wenpin, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared. In exchange for a serious face, he asked, "Governor, Ma Chao is pretending to be sick. Aren't you going to take some action?"

Zhang Liao still did not answer, but shifted his gaze to the soldier behind Wenpin, and asked, "Are you sure that Ma Chao is pretending to be sick?"

"Reporting...reporting to the governor, the subordinates can be sure!" The soldier replied.

"Okay! Remember what you said just now. If it doesn't match what I know, don't blame the governor for being rude to you." Zhang Liao said sharply.

Only then did Wenpin realize that Zhang Liao didn't believe his words, otherwise he wouldn't have treated his soldiers like this.But he wanted to know what happened, so he asked cautiously: "Great governor, is something wrong?"

"Zhongye! How have I been treating you?" Zhang Liao suddenly turned to look at Wenpin and asked solemnly.

"The Metropolitan Governor has always treated me kindly, and it is Zhongye's honor in his life to be able to follow the Metropolitan Governor!" Wenpin replied hastily.

"Since that's the case, why do you still do things that I'm sorry for?" Zhang Liao asked sharply.

Wenpin's face was startled, and he hurriedly asked: "Great Governor, the general doesn't know what you are referring to!"

"Hehe!" Zhang Liao sneered, "Perhaps I spoil you too much at ordinary times, which makes you do such a thing. Since you don't want to admit it, I won't force it!"

"Governor, the general really doesn't know what you are referring to? Where does the general start?" Wen Pin's mind was spinning quickly. He had done many shameful things behind Zhang Liao's back, and forcibly robbed Zhang Liao. A woman from the people, she has blackmailed the rich in private, and even seized the land, but all of these were done in Jingzhou, and she was still in her hometown. Given his status in his hometown, no one would dare to sue him. Could it be that , Is someone maliciously retaliating against himself and digging out all his past things?
Even if it was, it was in the past, and he also restrained a lot, which is also a thing of the past. Compared with his achievements, it is simply a piece of cake. The most important thing is that Zhang Liao suddenly smiled like this, which made him feel A little creepy, I don't know what Zhang Liao is referring to, if he admits his mistake, won't he reveal another evil deed of his own?

Therefore, Wenpin had made up his mind early on that he would only be able to admit it unless he was caught by Zhang Liao, otherwise, he would definitely not dare to admit his crime directly.

Zhang Liao looked at Wenpin, angry and angry in his heart, lowered his voice, tried his best to restrain his anger, and said slowly: "I will give you one last chance, you are guilty of what you have done ?"

Wenpin's heart was also full of ups and downs, but he still didn't dare to admit it openly, and he firmly believed that what he did in his hometown would definitely not reach Zhang Liao's ears. Someone must be maliciously slandering him. And Zhang Liao was just deceiving himself, there was no evidence at all, otherwise, with Zhang Liao's personality, the witness and material evidence would have been exposed to him long ago.Therefore, he must not admit it by himself, but continued: "Governor, I am innocent, what crime do you want me to admit!"

"If that's the case, then I have nothing to say." Zhang Liao gritted his teeth with hatred. He thought that Wenpin would plead guilty by himself, but he never thought that Wenpin had no repentance at all.

"Come here!" Zhang Liao suddenly shouted to the soldiers outside the door.

As soon as the voice fell, a few strong soldiers walked in from the outside, clasped their fists at Zhang Liao and said, "What orders does the Governor have?"

"Bring this person out to me so he can serve you!" Zhang Liao said.

"Here!"

The soldiers went straight to Wenpin's soldiers, and without saying a word, they directly took Wenpin's soldiers out, and there was no news after that.

Wen Pin stood aside, frowning tightly, a lot of cold sweat gathered on his forehead, he never thought that Zhang Liao was really here.

Just as he was about to say something, he heard the soldiers from outside come in and said to Zhang Liao, "Report to the Governor, General Huang is back!"

"Let him in!" Zhang Liao said impatiently.

Not long after the words fell, Huang Zhong walked in from the outside with a serious face, and there was another person who came with him. When Wenpin saw that person, his face suddenly became hot, and he knew it in his heart Zhang Liao asked what was the matter.

The one who came with Huang Zhong was an old military doctor in the army. He used to be an apprentice in a family, but he couldn't live anymore, so he joined the army, just to make a living. Knowing medical skills, he gradually developed his talents and became a military doctor.

"The last general, Huang Zhong, see the governor." Huang Zhong hurriedly saluted as soon as he entered the big tent.

"General Huang is free! Tell me about the situation?" Zhang Liao asked.

Huang Zhong turned to face the person behind him; the old military doctor said: "Tell the result of what you saw to the governor. If there is any falsehood, be careful with your head."

"The little one has ten guts, and he doesn't dare to lie." The old military doctor knelt on the ground and said nervously, "I want to report to the governor, that the little one went to visit General Ma with General Huang. Observing from the experience of practicing medicine, General Ma does have symptoms of serious illness, but the younger one has never given General Ma his pulse, so the results we can get are just guesses, and General Ma's sick appearance does not seem to be true. It's faked..."

"I see, you go on! Don't tell anyone about this matter again, understand?" Zhang Liao waved his hand at the old military doctor, gesturing him to leave.

The old military doctor stood up as if he had been pardoned, and hurried out of the big tent.

At this moment, only Zhang Liao, Huang Zhong, and Wen Pin were left in the big tent, none of them spoke, the big tent was so quiet that one could even hear the beating of a person's heart.

At this time, Wenpin was the most tormented person psychologically. His eyes were flickering and erratic. He looked at Zhang Liao and then at Huang Zhong. He had already prepared for the worst in his heart and seemed to be ready to meet Zhang Liao is about to erupt a violent storm.

However, time passed little by little, and Wenpin never waited for the so-called violent storm. On the contrary, Zhang Liao waited for a very short sentence: "Zhongye! You let me down so much!"

There was only such a sentence. After finishing speaking, Zhang Liao stood up and walked out in big strides, while Huang Zhong followed closely behind Zhang Liao, leaving only Wenpin standing alone in the big tent... …
