Three Kingdoms King of the North

Hearing Han Zhan's enthusiasm, Zhen Yan did not refuse. After expressing his gratitude, he ordered his followers to pack up their things, recovered the horse that was stolen by the Yellow Turban thief, and prepared to go on the road with Han Zhan.

Just as everyone was about to leave the cottage, Rob suddenly asked, "My lord, what should we do with these yellow turban thieves?"

If it was normal, Han Zhan would have ordered Rob to kill him without hesitation.But at this moment, in front of Zhen Yan, he didn't want to leave an impression of cruelty on the other party, so he told Rob: "Let them all go."

"What, let them all go?" Hearing what Han Zhan said, Rob showed a surprised expression on his face: "My lord, what should we do if they gather in the forest again after we let them go?"

"What should we do? If they dare to gather in the mountains again, we'll just come and wipe them out." Han Zhan glared at Rob, then raised his voice and said, "What are you still doing, why don't you untie them quickly."

A group of people returned to the official road, joined Dian Wei who was waiting here, and continued on their way.Seeing a dull-eyed servant behind Zhen Yan, Han Zhan asked curiously, "Second Young Master, your servant seems to be inappropriate."

"Tinghou really has a good eye." Zhen Yan turned to look at the servant behind him, sighed and said, "This person's history is a long story. Does Tinghou still remember the first time you and I met? "

"I remember." Han Zhan nodded and said, "At that time, Ben Hou was taking people to Sheguo County to take up his post. On the way, the axle of your carriage broke. Ben Hou also ordered someone to send you an axle."

Seeing that Han Zhan's memory of the past was still fresh, Zhen Yan smiled slightly, and then said: "We found this man by the Zhangshui River after we broke up with Tinghou. At that time, he was lying by the river with bruises all over his body. He was dying. My mother saw that he was pitiful, so she ordered someone to carry him into the carriage and drag him back to Yecheng together."

Knowing that this person was picked up by the Zhangshui River, Han Zhan couldn't help being interested, and asked curiously, "Second Young Master, I don't know what his origin is, why is he lying on the bank of the Zhangshui River with bruises all over his body?"

Who knew that Zhen Yan shook her head when she heard Han Zhan's question, and said, "Don't hide it from Tinghou, Xiao Ke doesn't know either."

Han Zhan asked Dianwei to lead the army to rest on the official road, and he, Guo Jia, Luo Bu and five hundred cavalrymen, led by the Yellow Turban Bandit, headed towards a cottage a few miles away.After walking for about half an hour, we came to the cottage that the Yellow Turban Thief mentioned.Compared with the cottages that Han Zhan had seen in the past, this place looked even more shabby. Not to mention the dilapidated buildings in the village, even the gate of the village was crooked.

Seeing this situation, Guo Jia shook his head and said, "It really is a mob. Not to mention General Dianwei going out, even if Luo Bu leads fifty cavalry, he can easily break through this stronghold."

After entering the stockade, without waiting for Han Zhan's order, Rob rushed in with a hundred cavalry.After a while, all the yellow turban thieves who stayed in the stronghold were captured, even the imprisoned son and his followers were rescued.

The rescued young master came to Han Zhan, bowed to salute, and said repeatedly: "Thank you for saving your life, Xiao Ke is very grateful."

Han Zhan heard the voice of the person speaking in front of him seemed familiar, so he said to him, "Brother, your voice is very familiar, I wonder if you can raise your head and let me have a look."

After seeing the other party clearly, Han Zhan couldn't help being taken aback. He quickly got off the horse, stepped forward and grabbed the other party's arm, and said in surprise, "Mr. Zhen, how could it be you?"

The son rescued by Han Zhan was none other than Zhen Yan, the second son of the Zhen family.When Zhen Yan saw clearly that the person who rescued herself from the sea of ​​suffering was actually Han Zhan, she couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise: "So it's Tinghou, Xiao Ke didn't know your identity, so I was rude just now, please forgive me." He planned to kneel down to Han Zhan.

How could Han Zhan let his future brother-in-law kneel down to him? He quickly grabbed him and said, "It's nothing to worry about. Mr. Zhen doesn't need to be so polite." Then he asked Zhen Yan why he was rejected. Looted by bandits.

Zhen Yan replied: "Xiao Ke was ordered by her mother to go to Sheguo County to handle the family business. Unexpectedly, when she came here, she encountered a yellow scarf thief who robbed her. The accompanying guards were defeated and almost all died in battle. The rest of the people, together with Xiao Ke, were taken captive to the mountain stronghold. They thought they would die soon, but unexpectedly Tinghou descended from the sky and saved Xiao Ke's life. Xiao Ke will never forget this kindness and virtue."

"How many people are there in your entourage?" Han Zhan asked briefly.

"There are three more." Zhen Yan said, calling the three servants who were standing aside, and asked them to greet Han Zhan.After the ceremony was over, Zhen Yan sighed and said, "It's a pity that Xiao Ke's guards are all dead, and the horse was also robbed by the Yellow Turban Bandits. It may be more difficult and dangerous to go to Sheguo County."

Chapter 341 The Mystery of Identity

Han Zhan, who was drinking with Huahu in the lobby, waited for the other party to report on the situation of spring plowing, and said: "Flower county magistrate, food is the most important thing for the people, and spring plowing is a big deal. Are you hungry? This kind of thing can’t happen in Sheguo County, if you encounter any difficulties, just ask Ben Hou. Do you understand?”

Hearing what Han Zhan said, Hua Hu quickly stood up from his seat, and replied respectfully, "This subordinate understands."

After talking about business matters, Han Zhan and Hua Hu started talking about the old days.As he was talking, he suddenly remembered the case he had just taken office, and asked Hua Hu: "I wonder if County Magistrate Hua still remembers the first case this Marquis took office?"

"Remember, remember," Huahu was the chief bookkeeper of the county government at the time, so he couldn't remember this kind of case, so he quickly replied: "The case brought up by the lord, could it be that Ge Bie bought some hooligans and beat thirteen vegetable sellers?" The case of Lang's death?"

"That's right, that's the case." Seeing that Huahu really remembered the case, Han Zhan nodded and continued, "Although Poppi also confessed, they beat Thirteen Lang and threw him into Zhangshui. But after all, no one is alive but no dead body, and I don’t know if Thirteen Lang is dead or not.”

"In my subordinate's opinion, Thirteenth Lang will definitely die." Hua Hu said in a positive tone: "It is said that Thirteenth Lang was seriously injured and thrown into the Zhangshui River. If he wants to survive, it must be a miracle. .”

Han Zhan thought of the amnesiac servant next to Zhen Yan, hesitated for a moment, and asked Hua Hu: "Magistrate Hua, does anyone in the county know Thirteen Lang?"

"There are a lot of people who know Thirteen Lang." Huahu frowned when Han Zhan said this, and began to think: "The proprietress of the mutton soup shop must know each other. After all, it was because of her that Thirteen Lang caused such an innocent disaster. It's a pity What's more, she has already left Sheguo County, and I don't know where she has gone." Speaking of this, Huahu couldn't help but sighed softly, "Her family's mutton soup and noodle cakes are considered a part of Sheguo County. Absolutely, it's a pity that after she's gone, I won't be able to taste such delicious food again."

"Zigu is now in Jizhou City. If County Magistrate Hua has a chance, he can go there to taste Zigu's craftsmanship and see if he has regressed." After Han Zhan said these two sentences in a joking manner, he continued to ask: "Apart from Zigu, does anyone else know Thirteen Lang?"

"Thirteen Lang's wife and elder sister will definitely recognize Thirteen Lang." Hua Hu said with regret, "It's a pity that they also moved away from Sheguo County after Hua Hu died."

"So, I really can't find anyone who knows Thirteen Lang?" Hearing what Hua Hu said, Han Zhan felt a little regretful. It seemed that it was not so easy to find out the identity of the famous family member Ding.

"That's not necessarily true." Hua Hu shook his head and said, "Although Hua Hu's relatives have left Sheguo County, his neighbors are still there, and they will definitely recognize Hua Hu." Suddenly thought of a key question, and quickly asked Han Zhan, "I don't know why the lord suddenly mentioned this person? Could it be that he returned to the Sheguo county government and thought about others when he saw things?"

"No, no," Han Zhan waved his hand at Huahu and said, "On the way to Sheguo County, I met a bunch of yellow scarf thieves. The second son of the Zhen family and several of his entourages. One of the entourages made me think that it might be the missing Thirteen Lang."

Han Zhan, who was drinking with Huahu in the lobby, waited for the other party to report on the situation of spring plowing, and said: "Flower county magistrate, food is the most important thing for the people, and spring plowing is a big deal.
