Chapter 1047 Ask Zhang Jian

Sun Ce had a bad impression of Zhang Jian. He was dissatisfied with the guards so excited, and even disdained the pride that Yuan Tan showed intentionally or unintentionally. However, when he saw Zhang Jian walking slowly, he was still surprised. Zhang Jian was tall, straight waist, white hair and unhurried, but he was very imposing. He walked step by step, feeling like he was strolling in the garden. On the contrary, the elite soldiers next to him were a little short of breath, and he felt more guilty than being surrounded by enemies who were several times more than him on the battlefield.

Sun Ce raised his eyebrows, subconsciously leaned back slightly behind him, and his hands holding the celestial tightened.

Zhang Jian walked up to him, his eyes swept across Sun Ce and Yuan Tan's faces, and then fell on Yuan Tan's face. "Yuan Xiansi?"

Yuan Tan had already stood up and quickly bowed to Zhang Jian. His body was like a chime, which was a great gift from the younger generation to see his elders. Zhang Jian looked slightly. "If Li Yuanli had a grandson like you, he could rest in peace in the nine springs."

Sun Ce couldn't help laughing "Puchi". "Would Li Yuanli be happier if I cut him down now and let him meet Li Yuanli?"

Zhang Jian's expression remained unchanged. He turned his head and looked at Sun Ce quietly, bowed and bowed to the end. "If what Lao I said angered the general, please add the anger of thunder to me, and do not refuse to hurt the innocent."

"It's really not easy to think about innocent things."

A trace of pain flashed in Zhang Jian's eyes. He lowered his head and did not move. His wrinkled forehead twitched twice. Several white hairs broke and gently swayed in the wind. Sun Ce looked carefully and suddenly felt that it was meaningless. An old man who was 70 years old and eighty years old, and his face was about to silence, what's the point even if he defeated him?

"Set up a seat for Zhang Gong." Sun Ce waved his hand. The guards on the side were about to move, Yuan Tan took the lead and returned to the tent. After a while, he walked out with the mat in his left hand and the right hand, and set up a mat with his hands and feet, respectfully invited Zhang Jian to take his seat. Zhang Jian bowed to thank him, took off his shoes, squatted, pressed the hem of his clothes with both hands, knelt forward, knelt on the mat, knelt on the mat, tidied up the hem of his clothes, and saluted Sun Ce again. "Thank you for the seat of General."

Sun Ce was not in the mood to chat with him. "Hong Kong is here, what advice do you have?"

"If you have something to ask for."

"What's the matter?"

"Please let the general go to Shecongzi Zhang Ai and Zhang Zhi."

Sun Ce was inexplicably, and he had never heard of two people. Lu Xun, who was beside him, stepped forward and leaned in his ear and said a few words. Sun Ce then realized, pondered for a moment, and chuckled, "Since Man Chong was dealt with, I would not interfere. If you want to report Man Chong to kill innocent people indiscriminately, I can send someone to investigate. However, if what you sued is not true, according to the rules, you will be on the wrong side. Zhang Gong, do you want to report Man Chong?"

Zhang Jian raised his head, looked at Sun Ce in surprise, and said for a while: "What the general said seriously?"

"Take every sentence seriously."

Zhang Jian nodded solemnly. "If a man of the horse kills innocent people, will the general deal with it according to the law?"

"must."

"Thank you, General." Zhang Jian bowed and bowed. "Then I won't bother the general. I'll go back to Gaoping and wait for the news." As he said that, he got up and put on his shoes. Yuan Tan caught a step, knelt in front of Zhang Jian, put on his shoes for Zhang Jian. Zhang Jian touched Yuan Tan's shoulder to show his gratitude. He stood up and bowed to Sun Ce, turned around and prepared to leave.

Sun Ce was surprised and couldn't help but call Zhang Jian. "Please stay."

Zhang Jian stopped, put his hands on his chest, neither humble nor arrogant. "I don't know what general can give me any advice."

"Do you believe me?"

Zhang Jian paused. "I believe in God's will. The general can bully me, but I believe he won't bully the heaven."

Sun Ce smacked his lips and always felt like he was hitting the empty-handed with one punch. He was very unhappy, but Zhang Jian said and did nothing wrong. He made him unreasonable and insisted on messing around with an old man, but he couldn't do it. But he was unwilling to let Zhang Jian leave like this. Being a human being for two lives was probably the most tangled time in his memory.

Zhang Jian waited for a while, and saw Sun Ce's eyes changing, but he didn't say anything, his eyes flashed slightly, thinking. "Can the general not agree with what I did back then and want to refute it?"

"I dare not." Sun Ce nodded slightly, and finally let out a little of his breath in his heart. "But I really can't agree with what Mr. Zhang did back then."

"Do I kill Hou Lanman's house or flee to the frontier?"

"Neither can agree with either. Have you never regretted it for so many years?"

Zhang Jian shook his head. "What would he do if he was a general?"

"You should know what I'll do."

Zhang Jian nodded, then showed a bitter smile. "Can the general know how many memorials were written to impeach Hou Lan and others? How many people offended Hou Lan and died of a crime?"

"Hou Lan is guilty, so it is okay to kill Hou Lan, so why should he kill Hou Lan's family?"

Zhang Jian frowned and showed a hint of surprise. "The general thinks Hou Lan's family is innocent?"

"Isn't it?"

"Of course not. If it weren't for Hou Lan, how could they get something for nothing, and have a good time? If it weren't for Hou Lan, how could they be rampant in the countryside and fish and people? If it weren't for Hou Lan, how could they be unable to see each other and act recklessly?" Zhang Jian narrowed his eyes and looked straight at Sun Ce with his eyes as sharp as a knife. "Or, the general thought that Hou Lan was forced to castrate himself? The general had been in Shanyang for a long time, so had he never heard of what the situation was in the Hou family in the Fangdong?"

Sun Ce was speechless. He suddenly realized that he had a misunderstanding that he underestimated the importance of the family in this era. No one was a free man, and everyone was a member of the family. One prospered and one suffered losses, and there were no innocent people at all. The Fangdong Hou family was not an ordinary person, and was originally a small powerful man. Hou Lan entered the palace like Cao Cao's grandfather Cao Teng, for the improvement of the family class. From the beginning, he was tied to the family. Hou Lan's family was fed and frugal because of Hou Lan, and they naturally had to pay the price for Hou Lan. Even if Zhang Jian did not kill them, the court would not let them go when Hou Lan fell.

"Then you can't do things well." Sun Ce felt that he had no confidence and was a little ruling. "You are the supervisor of the Eastern Conference, and Fangdong seems to be not in your jurisdiction, right?"

"According to the general's intention, the prefect who feared Hou Lan and did not dare to practice the law is not guilty. Am I guilty?"

Sun Ce wanted to speak but stopped.

"Does the general want to say that those officials who kill innocent people are not guilty of being killed? Instead, I should not escape, I should be killed and let Hou Lan take revenge? Those innocent people did not die because of the court's rebellion, but because of my cowardice? General, if the court kills General Zhengdong in the name of rebellion and wants to kill you, should you be killed or fight back?"

Sun Ce pondered for a long time, stood up in the chariot, bowed to Zhang Jian. "You are so ruthless, if you ask for the wise, please forgive me."
