299, the art of dragging people into the water
However, Fan Zhiyin and Wang Siwen were originally returning to Beijing by using the road, but they did not want to be used by Cheng Wanli with both soft and hard work, so they had no choice but to stay in Qingzhou for the time being.
Fortunately, although they were left in Qingzhou, they were not embarrassed. Until the Liangshan army returned from defeating Liao, the two of them wanted to see what the King of Liangshan, who held the national banner, looked like.
Although I say that seeing each other is seeing each other, I always want to have connections with Zhang Qingduo.
These two people are unwilling to follow Fang La in Jiangnan. How could they be willing to "join Liangshan" when they arrive in Qingzhou?
Therefore, Cheng Wanli was worn out and could not touch the two of them.
I just didn't want to go, but I waited for someone.
Fortunately, Zhang Qing came alone, which left a way out for the two of them, which also made them have a much better impression of Zhang Qing.
Zhang Qing also thought about meeting these two people early on, and it was difficult to get straight to the point and talk about something.
It must be true and false, and indirect.
But when Zhang Qing met, he shouted: "The two great sages came here, and they couldn't see each other, so I, Zhang Qing, came to visit in person."
This is actually a compliment to Fan Zhiyin and Wang Siwen.
Although he is a descendant of a famous family, he is still difficult to be named a great sage.
He quickly said that he didn't dare, but asked Zhang Qing to successfully enter the temporarily living room.
Zhang Qing could take a good look at the two of them in front of him. The moment he saw at the city gate was just a rough impression.
When it comes to Fan Zhiyin and Wang Siwen, their temperaments are still somewhat different.
Although they are all dressed in fabrics, one person has a leisurely demeanor and a certain kind of Taoist temperament. The other one is majestic and elegant, full of spirit.
Judging from this appearance, Wang Siwen is really not inferior to Fan Zhiyin.
This is a bit surprised by Zhang Qing, who always felt that he was "buy one free one", but he didn't know that Wang Siwen was a latecomer, generous and generous, helping the poor, and traveling all over the world took the title of "Shiyi". Later generations named him "Shiyi".
In terms of personal achievements alone, it is better than Fan Zhiyin.
Zhang Qing, who just doesn't know these things, can only "judgment people by their appearance" at the moment.
But when Zhang Qing met, he talked about everything. He first talked about how to attack the Liao people in the north, and then talked about the topic "by the way" and Guan Sheng took action, which finally forced the Liao people to retreat.
"So, if you want to make a contribution to this battle in the north, Guan Sheng will have a share."
At this point, Zhang Qing naturally pointed out the topic to Guan Sheng.
"Although I am an enemy of Guan Sheng, I admire his intention to kill the Liao thieves. It's a pity..."
As Zhang Qing spoke, he wanted to keep it a secret, so that it would attract the attention of the two of them.
It’s a pity that these two people are also very talented, but they don’t take Zhang Qing’s words. Zhang Qing had to continue talking on his own.
Fortunately, Zhang Qing was thick-skinned and didn't feel uncomfortable at all, so he said directly: "It's a pity that such a loyal and brave general is going to be questioned now! I want to go and save him, but I can't do it."
As soon as these words came out, they finally moved them.
Fan Zhiyin and Wang Siwen were in Jiangnan, so they didn't know where to know the situation of the war in the north, and they didn't know that such a loyal and brave soldier was punished for no reason.
Even the two of them didn't know that the court had ordered that the country should be settled first and then to fight against foreign countries.
He was shocked, but Wang Siwen immediately retorted: "As the king said, General Guan is a meritorious minister who has made great contributions. Why did Your Majesty ask him for guilt?"
"Such a contradiction sounds ridiculous!"
Seeing that Wang Siwen didn't believe it, Zhang Qing was not in a hurry to tell himself.
He just threw out the evidence and showed the letter Zhang Shuye gave to him that day in front of the two of them.
Fan Zhiyin and Wang Siwen still have some knowledge. They know that it is true when they see the truth, but they don’t understand what it means.
Or...
These two people have already realized something and just don't want to believe it.
However, in order to get the two of them, Zhang Qing was not polite to the destruction of the court's reputation. Seeing that the two were still silent, he sighed again: "I never thought that the court hated me, Liangshan, to be here! He would rather make appeasements with the Liao people than to deal with me, Liangshan."
"Even General Guan, who was so loyal and brave, was defeated by the Liao people, was injustice for the crime of resisting the imperial edict!"
"Such a humiliating death is passed down from later generations, but I don't know how to judge..."
What Zhang Qing said is indeed a bit shameless.
You are a thief!
Didn’t the court hate you to the core?
But then again, Zhang Qing's words ruined the reputation of the court, but also slapped the two people in front of him in the face.
Fan Zhiyin and Wang Siwenwan could not have imagined that the court could do this.
If Guan Sheng dies this time, under the encouragement of Liangshan, I am afraid that all the knowledgeable people in the world will be extremely disappointed with the court!
However, if Zhang Qing was asked to save Guan Sheng, wouldn’t it be even more embarrassing?
Such a dilemma was caused by the court itself, which made the two of them feel sad.
However, Zhang Qing did not give the two people a chance to digest, and that was one hammer after another, which made them confused.
But Zhang Qing answered the "troubled" and said, "It's only now that Zhang Shuai invites me to save Guan Sheng, but I have the heart but not enough strength. I really have no good plans. I also learned that the two of you are here, so I came to ask for advice."
As he said that, he sighed again, as if he felt embarrassed, and he said a little guilty: "Oh! If it weren't for the urgent situation at the moment, then Guan Sheng would have been killed by someone at some point, and I wouldn't have asked the two of you in a hurry."
The picture is exhausted and the dagger shows you!
Zhang Qing went around in circles for a long time, and finally showed his "evil appearance". He wanted to start with Guan Sheng's affairs and drag the two of them into the water.
They were afraid that they would be unable to refuse such great deeds and great things.
really!
Fan Zhiyin and Wang Siwen looked embarrassed and frowned. Although they didn't say anything, they were obviously constantly weighing each other in their hearts.
Zhang Qing is not in a hurry now.
Anyway, he is not worried about Guan Sheng's life or death. If Zhao Ji really cuts his head off, he can make a fuss.
Don't blame Zhang Qing for being cruel.
In order to achieve great things, we have to be heartless and even seem a little cruel.
...
The silence in the room did not last long.
Not long after, Fan Zhiyin said, "It's not that easy to ask General Guan to leave the city."
"The only way now is to use a drag-on technique!"
"As long as you can drag it out after the beginning of spring, there is still time to find a plan to save people."
In ancient times, everything was ruled, and even beheaded, there were many rules.
In the Song Dynasty, hanging and beheading were used together, and both the hang and beheading must be strictly tried. Relatively speaking, hanging is a slightly lighter crime than beheading, and for most officials, the number of people who were judged to beheading was more than the number of people who were judged to beheading.
As for beheading, there is a record in "Zuo Zhuan" that "rewards winter and summer, punishments are made in autumn and winter". As for the reason, it may be to adapt to the destiny and death of autumn and winter.
Since the Tang Dynasty stipulated that if the execution was not between the autumnal equinox and the beginning of spring, we would have to wait until the next year.
In addition to seasons, there are also very particular things to choose dates.
During the Tang and Song dynasties, prisoners could not be executed on many days, including the Great Sacrifice Day, the New Day, the Twenty-Four Solar Periods, the entire month of the leap month, and the rainy weather.
After such a reduction, it is actually not a few days since it meets the requirements.
Therefore, if Guan Sheng could be delayed until the beginning of spring, he would be able to think about how to rescue him for more than half a year.
But now there is still one month left before the beginning of spring, and these days are enough to kill Guan Sheng back and forth several times.
