Pingyu's government prison is similar to the prisons seen on TV. It is dark, damp, and the smell of blood and putrefaction is mixed in, which makes people sick. Under the dim light of the fire, you can occasionally see milky white and plump maggots.

The ground was twisting and squirming.

After crushing several maggots to death, Zhang Mo followed Wang Yun to the outside of a cell.

The jailer lit the lamp on the wall, took out the key and opened the door, "Your Majesty, Guan Hai is inside."

Having said that, I consciously waited outside, looking at my nose and heart, but my ears were perked up.

The thief said that he wanted to see Wang Shijun for something important. Lord Zhao asked him many times, but the thief refused to reveal a single word. He didn't know what the important matter was. It was so mysterious that the jailer muttered to himself.

Zhang Mo followed him in and saw a man chained to a cross. His hair was messy and dirty, his clothes had been whipped to tatters, his body was bloody and bloody, there was no good skin, and it seemed like there were maggots crawling on him.

This is the thief Guan Hai? Qingzhou Huangjin Qu Shuai recorded in the "Book of the Later Han Dynasty"?

As far as she knew, when Kong Rong was the Prime Minister of Beihai State, he was besieged by Guan Hai in Duchang. He later sent Taishi Ci to break out of the siege and go to Pingyuan County to ask Liu Bei for help. Liu Bei sent troops to relieve the siege before repelling Guan Hai.

This happened after Dong Zhuo took charge of the government, and now Guan Hai was captured before he reached the position of commander-in-chief? Could it be that because of her participation, history has been changed unintentionally?

When Guan Hai heard the sound, he slowly raised his head and said with a weak breath: "Wang Yun, Wang Jishi?"

"It's me." Wang Yun stood with his hands behind his hands, showing off his official airs.

"I heard that the envoy is from Kyoto. I wonder if he is familiar with Zhang Rang?" Guan Hai asked in a low voice.

"Is the important thing you mentioned related to him?" Wang Yun looked solemn when he heard Zhang Rang's name.

Guan Hai did not answer, but asked: "Does the envoy want to overthrow the ten permanent servants?"

"So what? If you have something to say, why bother beating around the bush?"

A knowing smile appeared on Guan Hai's face, "I have private letters between Peng Tuo and Zhang Rang, and I want to seek some favor from the envoy."

Zhang Rang actually colluded with the Yellow Turbans?

Wang Yun was stunned for a moment and then sneered, "What qualifications do you have for a prisoner under my command to negotiate terms with me? You are the leader of thieves. No amount of letters can exchange for your life. If you hand over the letters honestly, I will let you die."

You have to hurry up."

"You have misunderstood, I am not doing this for myself."

Guan Hai licked his dry lips and whispered, "I want to find a way out for my brothers, so I buried the letter under the big locust tree in the backyard of the Xincai County government office. I hope you will let them go."

Hearing that he was not seeking his own survival, Wang Yun's face softened, "You are a kind and righteous person! If you had come earlier, why would you be like this? If I don't kill you now to set an example, how can I deter those who have ulterior motives and plot to cause chaos?

?”

Guan Hai said anxiously: "Your Majesty, they can only obey orders. Moreover, since the uprising, we have not killed innocent people indiscriminately. I beg you to open your net. Guan is willing to be punished by being broken into pieces to shock the world."

Zhang Mo couldn't help but be moved. The splitting of the car was like dismembering the body by five horses. The real dismemberment by five horses was not like what was shown on TV, where a person was instantly divided into five pieces and died without pain.

In fact, the horse runs in five directions, with speeds ranging from fast to slow, and strength ranging from strong to weak. Moreover, when the rope is stretched straight and pulled, the horse will pause slightly, and the victim's body is stretched to the extreme, which can be clearly felt.

His muscles and bones were torn apart. You can imagine the pain and fear at this time.

The thief Guan Hai in the history books is a villain, and the siege of Duchang highlights the bravery and righteousness of Taishi Ci and Liu Bei. However, this man, who was regarded as a rebel by the people at the time, would rather choose to be beaten to death in order to save his companions.

Zhang Mo originally wanted to follow Guan Hai out of curiosity, but at this moment he felt compassion.

"I will consider your request."

Wang Yun glanced at Guan Hai thoughtfully, turned around and walked out of the cell.

Zhang Mo hurriedly followed him out. Just when he was about to say something, he saw that the jailer was still waiting aside and swallowed the words that came to his mouth.

After leaving the prison, Wang Yun asked Du Fei to take people to dig out letters, and he and Zhang Mo got on the carriage back home.

In the car, Zhang Mo carefully glanced at Wang Yun, who had a serious face, and asked tentatively: "Is the foster father really going to break up Guan Hai's car?"

"Since he wants to protect those people so much, it is natural for him as a father to help him."

Chengquan? Looking at the face in front of him that was exactly the same as his father, Zhang Mo felt chills in his heart. Is this the ruthlessness necessary for a politician?

This time, there are more than 10,000 Yellow Turban troops to be recruited. If he wanted to, he could definitely include Guan Hai's hundreds of men as recruits. Why would he need to break his car in exchange?

Thinking about his two defeats at the hands of Guan Hai, Zhang Mo had to suspect that Wang Shijun might be taking the opportunity to take revenge.

"Can't the adoptive father be lenient? Peng Tuo, his commander-in-chief, has not been executed. Even if he is to be executed, there is no need to carry out such torture."

"Peng Tuo is the leader of the thieves. I will take him back to Luoyang and hand him over to Your Majesty."

He turned to look at Zhang Mo, quite surprised, "Why are you interceding for him like this?"

"My daughter is not interceding for him, she just laments the unfairness of the world. Those who have no character and flattery can be pardoned, but a man like him, who is brave and brave, has to be tortured."

Wang Yun sighed softly, "He is a good man, but he is also a rebel."

"My foster father never thought about why Zhang Jiao could incite so many people to rebel against him? Why would those people, who didn't even know a word of Chinese characters and maybe even didn't know who their emperor was, risk their lives to rebel?"

Recalling what happened when he first traveled through time, Zhang Mo's expression showed heavy sadness. Who forced a good person to become a man-eating devil? The emperor, the eunuchs, the officials or the nobles from aristocratic families? In this feudal social system, those who were

People who are oppressed to the point of being unable to survive cannot even resist?

"They just want to survive..."

At this point, her bright eyes were a little confused. In order to get Wang Yun's attention, she repeatedly offered suggestions to help him eliminate the Yellow Turbans. Is this right or wrong? Without her participation, Guan Hai would not have ended up like this.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! He hasn’t gone to Beihai to surround Kong Rong yet!

"As a father, I also know the suffering of the people, but this cannot be used as a reason to rebel. If my father will show mercy, I will send his subordinates to Qingzhou for three years of hard labor!"

Seeing that her eyes were still dull, Wang Yun suddenly felt a little distressed. Those bright and cunning eyes that showed time were what she should have. He coughed unnaturally and explained, "Qingzhou is not like the border, those

People just go out to dry the salt and build roads, which is just a bit more painful, but there is no risk to their lives."

"What about Guan Hai?"

Zhang Mo saw hope in his relaxed expression and looked at him earnestly, "Father, my daughter, please let him go. He killed many officers and soldiers, but that was during a time of hostility, not because of his cruelty."

She opened the curtain of the carriage and pointed at the orderly streets of Pingyu, "Look, foster father, he has occupied Pingyu for so long and has not looted and killed as much as Bocai did. Except for those who were rich and unkind, he did not kill anyone indiscriminately."

An innocent person is the official whom the thieves hate the most, but he has not affected his family."

Of course, Wang Yun knew that the situation in Pingyu was much better than that in Yangzhai. Guan Hai was not only a talented general, but also had a good conduct. If he could serve the country, it would be a great blessing for His Majesty. However, it would be a pity that he would become a thief.

.

He was silent for a moment and said, "His life and death will be considered at my father's discretion."

Wang Yun had expressed his position in this way. Zhang Mo knew that saying more might arouse resentment. Thinking of the letters mentioned in prison, he changed the subject and asked: "Just now Guan Hai said that Zhang Rang colluded with Peng Tuo. What is his adoptive father really going to do after he returns to Beijing?"

Your Majesty reports?"

"Of course, Your Majesty was deceived by the eunuch. How can you let him go if you catch him this time?"

Speaking of the Ten Constant Attendants, Wang Yun had an angry look on his face. These eunuchs beguiled Your Majesty to sell their official positions and get titles, but they dared to collude with the thieves. They really deserve to be killed!

"I heard that Zhang Rang is deeply trusted by His Majesty. I'm afraid I can't bring him down with just a few letters." Zhang Mo said.

As long as the Spiritual Emperor is not dead, these people are equivalent to possessing a gold medal to avoid death. Wang Yun's move will only attract hatred.

"Even so, as a father, I still have to try. If I don't remove the eunuchs, sooner or later my Han Dynasty will be ruined in their hands."

How could a few eunuchs take down the Han Dynasty? The demise of a dynasty is never due to a single reason.

"Zhang Rang and others are so powerful that if my adoptive father cannot bring him down, he will be retaliated by him afterwards and may be imprisoned."

Alas, there will definitely be jail time.

Wang Yundao said, "Just be more careful as a father, and you won't give him any opportunities."

Seeing Wang Yun's resolute attitude, he knew that talking more would be useless. Fortunately, he had just accomplished the task of defeating the thief. Although Emperor Ling was dim, he was not a murderous person, and his life should not be in danger.

…………

Eight days later, in the backyard of the Governor's Mansion, Zhang Mo looked at the man who climbed over the wall in broad daylight and was stunned for three seconds before picking up the guqin he was playing and smashing it over without hesitation.

"Thief, thief, catch the thief!" she jumped up and shouted.

"I am not a bandit..."

The man rushed forward and took the guqin, which was about to fall to the ground, into his arms.

Hearing the shouts, Brother Xu Chu, who was struggling to read outside the courtyard gate, pushed open the door and entered. Xu Chu, without saying a word, picked up a big knife and went to kill him.

"You are a bold thief who dares to break into the Governor's Mansion in broad daylight."

The man hurriedly explained, "I am not a thief, I am here to see the envoy."

He dodged and avoided the blade. In his busy schedule, he did not forget to place the guqin gently on the stone steps aside.

"Why did you come to the backyard secretly instead of announcing it through the gate?"

As he spoke, he wielded his sword and slashed wildly. Xu Ding and Du Fei wanted to step forward to help capture the thief, but looking at the formation, there was a high chance that they would be accidentally injured by Xu Chu, so they stopped.

The man dodged while continuing: "I really came to see the envoy. The boy at the door didn't notify me, so I had to climb over the wall and come in."

Xu Chu saw that his clothes were shabby, he had scars on his face, and his skills were pretty good, so he was definitely not a kind person. He was just quibbling at this moment, and he raised his knife to chop at people again.

The man kept avoiding him, but the other party was aggressive and didn't give him any chance to explain. He was no longer polite, thinking of knocking this bully down first.

He quickly broke down a nearby plum tree, used the branch as a sword, and found an opening to strike at Xu Chu's wrist holding the knife. Xu Chu couldn't react in time, and felt as if his wrist had been struck by a whip. It stung, then became slightly numb, and he almost couldn't hold it.

Stop the knife in your hand.

The man's strength is not as strong as Xu Chu's, but his reaction speed is much faster than his. Looking at his steps and moves, every step is well planned, as if he has real kung fu.

Moreover, looking at the man's appearance, he does not look like a thief.

"Stop, stop, don't fight yet, wait until I ask him!" Zhang Mo shouted to Xu Chu.

There was a lag in the movements of both parties. Xu Chu took the lead to retreat and protected Zhang Mo. His tall body blocked her sight. While staring at the man warily, he turned his head and said to Zhang Mo, "This guy seems to know real kung fu."
