The yellow turban warrior in front of the cave took a look, and immediately stepped aside: "General Tiangong has an order, and the two commanders, Qu, don't need to communicate when they come here, just go in."
"Thank you very much." Zhang Yan cupped her hands in thanks, and then led Zhang Niujiao into the room.
Entering the cave, there is a unique cave, which is actually the size of an outside mansion.
And in the deepest part of the cave, there is a picture of a figure hanging high. If the generals who crusaded against the Yellow Turbans saw it, they would be able to see that the man in the painting is Zhang Jiao, who was once known as General Tiangong and one of the leaders of the Yellow Turban Rebellion. .
Under Zhang Jiao's portrait, there is a seat on which a person covered by a black robe sits, but upon closer inspection, her figure is very light and thin, and she doesn't seem to be a man.
When the imperial court pacified the Yellow Turban, Zhang Jiao's three brothers were all dead, but now Zhang Yan and the others still call her General Tiangong, her identity is also very reminiscent.
"See General Tiangong."
After Zhang Yan and Zhang Niujiao arrived, they bowed to the people in their seats.
"What's the matter? Let the two of you come to see me at the same time?" The person in the seat asked.
As soon as the voice came out, it was indeed a woman. The voice was extremely soft, like the cry of a yellow oriole, which was very pleasant to hear, and there was a kind of heroic spirit of a woman in this soft voice.
Thinking of this, one might be able to guess the identity of this woman, Zhang Jiao's daughter, Zhang Ning, also has another name called Mei Niang.
"Reporting to the general, Yuan Shao conspired against the imperial court, and sent a special envoy to ask me, the Yellow Turban, to send troops to attack Yanzhou to hold back the imperial court's offensive. He promised that as soon as the matter is completed, he will give us 50 stones of food and grass immediately. Continue to supply." Zhang Yan said respectfully.
"You agreed?" Zhang Ning, who covered his face with a cloak and black robe, couldn't see clearly, let alone her expression, but his voice was extremely cold.
"The final general knows that this matter is of great importance, so he dare not make a decision, so he came here to ask the general for instructions." Zhang Yan said in awe.
"If it's just for this matter, you don't need to come together." Zhang Ning said coldly.
"Yuan Shao's conditions are extremely generous, enough to allow us millions of yellow scarves to live for a few months. I originally wanted to persuade General Tiangong to agree, but after Yuan Shao's envoy came, the envoy of the Son of Heaven came and brought an imperial edict. " Zhang Yan said solemnly, holding out the imperial decree with both hands.
"Emperor's edict?"
Hearing the name of the Son of Heaven, Zhang Ning in the cloak also seemed a little excited, and immediately took the imperial decree and opened it to have a look.
As Liu Xie said personally, Zhang Ning took the forgiveness of the Yellow Turban and the opportunity to give the Yellow Turban into consideration.
"Today... today's emperor actually admitted that the Yellow Turban Rebellion was due to the court's inaction?" Zhang Ning said with a trembling voice.
"General Qi, this decree is not as simple as forgiving our yellow scarves. It is a choice made for us today. If we make a wrong choice, it will be a disaster for millions of my people, so the subordinates only Now that I can ask the general to make a decision, should I send troops to help Yuan Shao, or rely on the imperial court to deal with Yuan Shao." Zhang Yan said very solemnly.
"Have you forgotten why father led you to revolt back then?" Zhang Ning stood up slowly, with a heavy tone.
"The sky is dead, and the yellow sky will stand."
"At the beginning, the great virtuous teacher was to fight against the gentry who oppressed us and save the common people." Zhang Yan and Zhang Niujiao said in unison.
"Then do you know who Yuan Shao is?" Zhang Ning asked again, his tone could be heard to be a little angry: "His Yuan family is the largest noble family in the world, the most powerful, and the reason why my father raised troops was to destroy the corrupt Get rid of all the gentry in this country and rebuild a brand new country, if we make deals with the gentry for some benefit, then we will go against my father's wishes, and my teachings of the Yellow Turban will no longer exist."
"General, you are right. To collude with the gentry is to trap my millions of yellow scarves into injustice, and trap great virtuous teachers into injustice." Zhang Yan agreed.
"However, what if we follow the imperial decree of the emperor and send troops to attack Yuan Shao, and after Yuan Shao is destroyed, the emperor turns his face and refuses to recognize anyone? Besides, compared to the gentry, the Han family is the largest gentry." Zhang Niujiao was a little worried Said.
For the imperial court, almost all the Yellow Turbans were extremely disappointed.
After the defeat of Zhang Jiao, hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turbans abandoned their armor and surrendered, but in the end they were massacred by the officers and soldiers.
"Today's emperor was supported by Dong Zhuo, but he possessed a talent that was unmatched by everyone. He punished Dong Zhuo and suppressed rebellion. All these were not comparable to the previous Han Lingdi, so I decided to take a gamble. A handful of fate for my million yellow turbans."
After Zhang Ning thought about it for a while, he suddenly affirmed.
......
Chapter 62 Do it all, the stunning Zhang Ning
"I have also heard many rumors that today's emperor is different from the Han Lingdi at that time. He is a good emperor who loves his people. After breaking Chang'an, he made an oath to the people of the world. , maybe it's really worth our gamble." Zhang Yan also continued.
"Has the general made a decision to attach himself to the imperial court? Then the general will directly kill the envoy of Yuan Shao." A murderous intent flashed in Zhang Niujiao's eyes.
"No, let the emperor's envoy come in first, I have something to discuss with him." Zhang Ning said with a wave of his hand.
"This subordinate will bring him in." Zhang Yan nodded, and went down to invite Xi Zhong.
Soon.
Under Zhang Yan's guidance, Xi Zhong came to the most secret place in the Yellow Turban Village.
"It's a great honor for me, Yellow Turban, for the envoy of the Son of Heaven to come to my Yellow Turban military stronghold in person." Zhang Ning said in a heroic yet polite manner.
"It was rumored that after Zhang Jiao died of illness, he had no descendants. Now the rumors are just rumors. Unexpectedly, Zhang Jiao left behind a handsome and talented woman. It is really admirable to control the million yellow scarves." Xi Zhong cupped his hands at Zhang Ning.
"You don't need to flatter me. I have accepted the imperial decree of the emperor, and I can also send troops to attack Yuan Shao, but I must know whether the emperor will kill the donkey and attack me again after Yuan Shao is eliminated. Therefore, I hope Can the Son of Heaven give me a guarantee, a guarantee for the Yellow Turban to rest assured." Zhang Ning didn't intend to say more, and cut to the point.
"Your Majesty is wise, you have already ordered me to give you a guarantee." Xi Zhong smiled, and took out another imperial edict from his pocket.
"Zhang Ning accepts the decree. This is His Majesty's edict to announce to the people of the world, and it is also an edict to give you millions of yellow scarves to be restored to the common people of the Han Dynasty." Xi Zhong solemnly handed the imperial edict to Zhang Ning.
"Zhang Ning accepts the order."
Zhang Ning also seemed to become more solemn, walked up to Xi Zhong, and took the imperial decree with both hands.
Wait until she opens it to take a look.
"As evidenced by the richness of the sky, although the Yellow Turbans rebelled in the past, it was all due to the inaction of the court and the domineering gentry. The Yellow Turban Army was originally my people. This time, the Yellow Turban Army has made great contributions in suppressing the rebellion. Today, it pardons millions of Yellow Turbans for their crimes. The imperial court No more encirclement and suppression, this is an announcement to the world, this is it."
The imperial decree was written by Liu Xie himself, and it was stamped with the jade seal of the Han Dynasty. It was ordered by the heavens to live forever, and the eight characters that run through the present and the past are particularly conspicuous.
"Today, Zixiong was rough, and Zhang Ning was convinced."
After a long time, Zhang Ning put away the imperial decree and said something with a sigh. It was precisely because of this imperial decree that she had no worries about the imperial court killing donkeys.
Now the imperial decree has been issued, and the emperor has pardoned him.
Throughout the ages, the son of heaven has always spoken well, and he will never contradict what he says, otherwise he would not be worthy of being an emperor.
"General, this subordinate will behead Yuan Shao's envoy to show that my yellow scarf is serving the emperor." Zhang Yan said immediately.
"Go." Zhang Ning nodded immediately without hesitation.
"and many more."
Just when Zhang Yan drew out his sword and was about to kill Guo Tu, Xi Zhong suddenly stopped him.
"What do you mean, sir?" Zhang Yan stopped and asked in confusion.
"What conditions did Yuan Shao promise you?" Xi Zhong asked with a smile.
"Food and grass are 50 shi, and as long as troops are dispatched, they will be supplied later." Zhang Yan replied honestly.
