Chrysanthemums are known as the four gentlemen among flowers in the history of our country, with plum, orchid and bamboo. The ancestors and poets in history often use them to express their aspirations.

Huang Chao, a famous rebel leader in the Tang Dynasty, once wrote: "When autumn comes, September 8th, I will kill all the flowers after the flowers bloom. The fragrance array soars into Chang'an, and the whole city is covered with golden armor."

But bitter chrysanthemum is different. It is just a wild vegetable, a home-cooked wild vegetable growing in the fields.

Because he likes cold climates, tastes sweet and bitter, looks bad, and is even a little ugly, he is not often a scholar who eats, and there are very few people who like it. However, it is particularly important in the minds of the working people, just like Zhang Jin's position in Liu Bei's heart.

Although he is as unknown as it, and although he is as unfavorable as it, he and it can be a life-saving straw in their eyes at critical moments.

It was almost three o'clock at this time, and the frog outside the camp was roaring desperately in the breeze. Liu Bei's life-saving straw had not yet fallen asleep. He lay on the bed, looking up at the roof, his eyes wide open like a copper bell, and his eyes were full of flashing excitement.

His name is Zhang Jin, and he is one of Cao Cao's personal guards, and he is also the kind of guard who can enter Cao Cao's study and be civil and military.

As for his real name, he couldn't remember it very clearly, just as he could hardly remember his lord. Time passed so long that he regarded himself as Zhang Jin.

Of course, this is not his fault. After all, after Liu Bei "escaped" him out of the army, he took the initiative to cut off any contact with him, and he would never allow him to pass any words to the outside without permission.

Therefore, for so many years, he has been walking alone in Cao's camp, like a lonely wolf, and dared not slacken at all.

It was not until tonight when he touched the letter in the corner of the quilt while he was sleeping that he realized that he had been awakened by his lord.

Although he did not know who had hidden the letter in his bedding, nor who had the lord placed in Cao's camp, he knew that he would become a brave soldier again, walking under the light, or becoming a moth that pounced on the flames.

The tasks mentioned in the letter are not simple, but the content is only a few short sentences.

Zhang Jin carefully spread out the letter paper, looking at ten lines at a glance, then firmly remembered the content in his mind, searched around inside and outside the house, and after confirming that there was no flaw, he swallowed the letter paper and fell asleep again with the quilt.

At noon the next day, Zhang Jin completed the handover with another group of personal guards, walked slowly back to his place, and even greeted the soldiers he knew along the way, and casually uttered a few words.

Whenever there is a big event, you need to be calm. This is what the lord told him, and it is also a skill that a spy must have.

So, he was not in a hurry at all.

He had already grasped the details of today's pre-military meeting in the camp. The angel sent by the Luoyang court to grant Cao Cao the title of Qiao Hou will set off tomorrow to return to Beijing, and Hu Cheer, the deputy general under General Zhang Xiu, personally commanded the army to escort the angels.

Zhang Jin walked, thinking that before he could reach the doorstep, a bold plan had been formed in his mind.

When he returned home, he wrote a few lines of words on the paper in Cao Cao's tone, gently blowing the ink on it, nodding with satisfaction at the words that could be fake and real, then he put the letter in his arms, changed into a casual outfit and went straight to Hu Cheer's military camp.

Since the battle situation in Yuzhou was reopened, Zhang Xiu was transferred to Cao Cao's sight, and his military camp was outside the city.

"Stop, who are you? How dare you trespass into the important area of ​​our military camp!" Zhang Jin had just approached Hu Cheer's military camp, and before he could dodge, he was stopped by a group of soldiers who emerged from the grass.

I originally wanted to visit Hu Cheer quietly, but this group of soldiers ruined a good thing!

Zhang Jin sighed slightly and shook his token in front of their eyes. Everyone hurriedly bowed and saluted: "It turns out that you are Zhang Shichang under the tent of Mr. Cao. I am sorry for my unclear eyes. If you don't know what Taishan has offended him, please forgive me!"

Now that things have come to this point, what else can I say? Zhang Jin had to smile at them, revealing two rows of white teeth, and felt like he had a smile to eliminate his grudges.

Seeing that Zhang Jin did not blame him, the commander came over with joy.

After all, they are all men in the army, and their favorite is Zhang Jin's cheerful personality. Moreover, Zhang Jin, the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, is definitely not allowed to offend them easily as the chief guard of Cao Cao.

The sergeant looked at Zhang Jin with some flattery: "I am Liu Yishou, the sergeant under General Hu Cheer'er. How dare you ask Zhang Shichang what happened today? Do you need me to come to the sect to inform the general?"

Today, Japan only wants to quit with Hu Cheer in order not to leave any handle, but does not want to make a big deal about the boss. He was discovered by patrol soldiers as soon as he arrived at the entrance of the camp.

Zhang Jin shook his head, his mind suddenly moved, and nodded to the sergeant: "I have an old relationship with General Hu Cheer, and some things are inconvenient for others to know. Please tell General Hu to help me, Zhang waits for him in the woods ahead!"

The sergeant was overjoyed and bowed to Zhang Jin and ran towards the camp quickly.

...

The breeze blew gently in the forest, just like Zhang Jin's mind, and it was rare to feel a little peace. I don't know if the sergeant had made an appointment with Hu Cheer, nor if Hu Cheer would come as requested.

"Brother Zhang Jin, why do you come to find your old brother today if you have time?"

Suddenly, a majestic and rough voice broke the silence in the forest. Zhang Jin's mind immediately calmed down and bowed to the person who came and smiled: "Brother is joking. If it weren't for the lord's care, I would have wished that a pair of wings would fly over and drink and chat with my brother every day!"

"Haha, I'm still happy, it's more suitable to meet Hu's appetite than those bullshit Rumao!" Hu Cheer grabbed Zhang Jin's arm and shook it gently, and smiled, "If Hu hadn't been on the table in front of his lord, Hu would have to ask you to come!"

Zhang Jin shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Old brother is joking. Who doesn't know that General Hu is the confidant of General Zhang Xiu and the general who the lord relies on? If you can't even get on the table, wouldn't my brother, a big soldier, die of shame?

Let’s not talk about it for a long time, it means that the guards of the angels of Japan, and how many generals in the tent today are fighting for this job, almost tragically. In the end, it’s not that the lord is happy about you, so he personally ordered your general!"

Cut, what is the mission to escort a bird angel? Isn’t it obvious that the lord underestimates people?

Hu Cheer muttered and suddenly realized that the person in front of him was the lord's personal guard, and hurriedly slapped his face gently and smiled embarrassedly: "Hu is just a straightforward and quick-talking person. Please tolerate me. Don't let the lord know that the old brother is talking nonsense behind his back!"

"Where is this old brother? That general doesn't want to gallop on the battlefield, and that general is willing to do something to welcome and send off? However, old brother, you have indeed wronged your lord at this moment!"

Zhang Jin responded, suddenly looked up, took out the letter from his arms and handed it to Hu Cheer and shouted softly, "Hu Cheer obeys the order: You will be fully protected by the angels tomorrow. Don't let the angels suffer any harm in my Baoxin territory, otherwise military law will be carried out!"

"No! I will obey the order!"

Hu Cheer took the letter from Zhang Jin and patted his head and couldn't figure it out. The military order to escort the angel back to Beijing has been received in the yamen today. Now the lord asked Zhang Jin to send a secret letter to come again, but why?

Hu Cheer's expressions fell into Zhang Jin's eyes. Zhang Jin smiled slightly and whispered in Hu Cheer's ear: "The lord's order is to ensure that the angels should not be safe in my virtuous territory. Do you understand what it means?"
