Chapter 5 - Shi Xie's Secret Order
Shi Wu looked at Shi Xie and shouted, "Big Brother …" Shi Xie was not moved. "Sigh!" Shi Wu angrily threw his sword on the ground, jumped on his horse and rode far away.
Shi Xie supported Zhang Tie and I up and said, "You two are really young heroes! Please get up! I don't even know how to thank you for getting rid of all of you for the sake of the people! " I smiled and said, "My lord is being too courteous! We are already grateful for your kindness! He dared to ask for more! Have we offended General Shi Wu in some way? If that's really the case, then we are willing to die to apologize for our sins! "
Shi Xie laughed and said: "Look at what you are saying! This was exactly how my younger brother had a temper! It's fine! I also want to ask you to not take offense to this! "Haha …" I pretended to regret it and said, "So that's how it is! On the contrary, we're acting like a petty person! He has misinterpreted Master Shi Wu! "Haha …" I, Zhang Tie, and Shi Xie all laughed out loud while looking at each other.
Shi Xie stopped laughing, pointed at me and pointed to iron, then asked: "May I ask which of you two is Fan Li after Fan Li, and which is the grandson of the famous general Zhang Huanzhi, Zhang Tie?" Zhang Tie bowed and said: "I am Zhang Tie, and have humiliated Fan Li's Zhang family!" I also bowed and said: "I am Fan Li!"
Shi Xie stared at me: "Fan Li! You are Fan Li! " He thought to himself: "Are the two great books, Fan Ziran and Wen Zi, with him?" If it's on him, I can let the soldiers snatch it away by force! But Fan Li wouldn't be so stupid as to bring such a treasure along with him! He must be hiding in a secret place! If only I knew where his library is! "
Seeing Shi Xie meditating, he asked: Master, what are you thinking about? Shi Xie laughed to cover up the bad thoughts in his heart, and with a flash of inspiration, he changed his words: "Haha! Haha! Nothing! This time, I came here with my army to go to the South China Sea to guard against Shan Yue, and I also want to pay my respects to Zhang Zhi, a contemporary calligrapher. Just now, I thought about how the Zhang Family had done a great service for the big man, but the heavens did not bless them! Zhang Zhi died so early, what a pity! How pathetic! "Sigh!" Shi Xie cried in sorrow, pretending to be righteous. Tie Xiao was extremely grieved, because Shi Xie mentioned his father, who had just passed away.
After a while, Shi Xie said: "Oh! That's right! Now that I have ordered you two to serve in Ankang County, you two will not feel wronged, will you? "
I said, "No! Absolutely not! It is our will to serve the Lord! How could we not? " Shi Xie laughed loudly …
Tie Wu took out a book from his chest pocket and presented it to Shi Xie, saying: "Master, this is my father's written copy of Grandfather's《 Obscure Book》, Master has given us a great favor, we are unable to repay you for it today, we can give this book to Master!"
Shi Xie greedily looked at the Iron Hand, he had long wanted to snatch that book away, but he had to say it out loud, "Your father wrote it personally? And it was even the "Difficult" written by the General Zhang? This was a priceless treasure! How can I accept it? " With a stern face, he said, "Is Master looking down on us? Are you looking down on my book? You don't accept my kind intentions? " Shi Xie laughed and said, "No need! Where! Then Fan Li will do as you bid! "
After Shi Xie finished speaking, he immediately took the book over. He immediately opened the book and looked at the words inside, and couldn't help but exclaim again and again. It seemed that Shi Xie was also a calligrapher's fan.
Shi Xie couldn't find a good reason to execute Zhang Tie and I, and he was also afraid that Shan Yue would really attack his Southern Sea County, so more importantly, he didn't want me to die yet. He wanted to obtain the two mysterious books that were passed down in the world, so Shi Xie sent his twenty thousand troops to the Southern Sea Region to resist Shan Yue's invasion.
Seeing that Shi Xie did not make things difficult for me, Zhang Tie asked in puzzlement: "Young Master Fan Li, why would Shi Xie let you and Young Master Zhang Tie go?" I laughed before replying to Liu Jian, "Because Shi Xie is a generous and humble corporal. Third brother's Zhang family's reputation is very high, adding on to the fact that we four brothers have the illustrious reputation of being Ankang's divine children, we are somewhat famous. Furthermore, for generations of my family's business, we have a lot of wealth and influence in the Jiao Prefecture. If there is anything that I can do, the economy of the Jiao Prefecture will definitely be affected! The new Jiao Prefecture of Shi Xie's Territory had no choice but to show kindness to everyone in order to stabilize his position. In order to take advantage of people's expectations, he even more so didn't dare to hurt us because we killed a corrupt official. I sent a message to Big Brother at Mountain Yue to use his wealth to make the greedy Mountain King attack South Sea and other places, forcing Shi Xie to move troops to deal with the invasion of foreign invaders. As a result, he temporarily let us go. At the same time, I also ordered people to spread the crimes of the County Command that we had killed everywhere. They also sent messengers to Shi Xie to beg for forgiveness, and also gave all the money that the County Command had stolen to Shi Xie. This way, Shi Xie would be able to weigh the pros and cons before deciding not to kill us! And third brother and I have also been captured by those people who wanted to capture us and spare our lives! "
Liu Jian said, "Young Master Fan is really powerful! You have the legacy of your ancestors! Young Master Fan will become magnanimous in the future! " Upon hearing this, I hurriedly bowed to Liu Jian, saying, "Grandpa Xie, you flatter me!" Liu Jian looked at Fan Li with appreciation and thought: "Li Xiong, Chen Zhi, Iron, Fan Li, these four young masters will definitely establish a great achievement in the future! It seemed like Guan Yan was right! You are truly worthy of being called a god in your calculations! "
"Oh!" Why not kill the people who caught you two? Liu Jian suddenly thought of this and reminded me. I smiled and replied, "At that time, I didn't even know if my plan would succeed or if we would be able to protect ourselves, let alone the others! Forget it! Let's let them go and let them go! " Liu Jian was even more certain of his own point of view. Young Master Fan is wise and brave, as long as the luck is here, it would be hard to not dominate the entire world! "
At this time, Zhang Tie said: "But Shi Xie letting the county magistrate control two counties is clearly sending people to monitor us, to prevent us from doing anything! I see that Shi Xie is not someone who can accomplish great things! In the end, he was still an enlightened ruler! It's not worth it to serve him! "
I sighed and said, "There's nothing I can do! We can only do it one step at a time! Sigh! As long as the new county magistrate is a good one, why can't we admit him? "
Zhang Tie asked: "You wouldn't truly want to be loyal to Shi Xie, right?" I said firmly, "No! I still want to work for Cao Cao! I expect that he is someone who can make everyone in the world happy! " Zhang Tie asked curiously: "I don't feel anything special about that Cao Cao, I just don't know why Fourth Brother has such a high opinion of him?"
I looked up at the blue sky and said, "My ancestors were the aides of the Lord, to make themselves famous in the world. Father took a single name for me to write the word, so that I can emulate my ancestors and build a career to spread my family name! Cao Cao has the aura of a king, I want to join him must be the best kind of home! He will definitely fulfill my wish! Revitalizing the Han Dynasty would depend on Cao Cao! However, I am afraid that in the future, he will take over the world and not fight for the sake of prosperity anymore! "
Hearing that, Zhang Tie's face became extremely dark, Tie Ji was extremely unhappy, and said to me with a straight face: "Cao Cao, you want to seize the world and not fight for the Han? Sigh! Fourth brother! How can you say such outrageous words! In order to protect the big guy, we should be willing to die! " After Liu Jian heard this, he shot an appreciative look at Tie Ta. He was encouraging Tie Ta to fight to the death in order to defend this big man!
I knew Tie Ta's intentions, so I didn't want to get entangled with him over this matter. Thus, I changed the topic and said, "Why don't you call your big brother and second brother back?" Zhang Tie said: "Alright! We brothers are gathered together, it's really great! "
Shi Wu rode his horse to Shi Xie's side and said: "Big Brother, why didn't you just kill Zhang Tie and Fan Li, the two scum?" Shi Xie said: "What do you know! My new Jiao Prefecture must be magnanimous! Therefore, Fan Li has temporarily let them off the hook! "
Shi Wu continued to persuade Shi Xie while looking at him: "But, Big Brother, have you heard of it before? The children's songs of the Jiao Prefecture, which were widely spread throughout the world today, said: "Zhu Yi, you have a good relationship with all the warriors, and you should be happy with your friends!" Zhu is the original Jiao Prefecture Mu Zhu Fu, he was clearly referring to us, the Shi family! ~ It must be that Fan Li, if I don't kill him today, there will be endless trouble in the future ~! The first two sentences have been fulfilled, but the last two sentences were a warning to our family. It's better for Big Bro to kill him! "
Shi Xie sighed, and said: "From the methods that they used, I could tell that they were not simple! I also want to get rid of them to prevent future troubles! But the Zhang family's reputation is known to all, and Fan Li and the rest of the four are already slightly famous in Jiao Prefecture. They are only around fifteen years old, and if I kill them, it would be unheard-of. The enemy forces in my territory will definitely move! At that time, the situation could no longer be resolved! That's why I didn't kill them when I was in Ankang. Furthermore, the legendary books "Confucius" and "Fan Ziran" had yet to be obtained! No matter what, I have to get those two strange books! Right now, I have already ordered the Territory Commanders of the Fang County to rule two counties, and have ordered them to plot schemes for Zhang Tie and Fan Li! My secret order is that no matter what methods I use, I have to get hold of the two strange books, Wen Zi and Fan Zi Ji. Once I obtain these two books, I just need to find a random excuse to kill Fan Li and the rest! In order to ensure that nothing will go wrong, I have also secretly ordered Yu Lin, the taiwai of the Yu Lin County, to cooperate with the county magistrate in plotting against Fan Li. "
Hearing that, Shi Wu was overjoyed: "So Big Brother had planned this long ago! Big brother is amazing! Brother Wu has submitted! "Haha!" Shi Xie also laughed loudly.
Half a year had passed. This half year of war and chaos had caused the people to suffer a lot …
I looked up at the sky and exclaimed, "Mars has appeared surprisingly!" In terms of the degree of divergence, the state that Mars was in was the Jiao Prefecture! With Mars staying in Jiao Prefecture, the Jiao Prefecture would definitely be in a state of chaos in the future! At the autumnal equinox, the Old Man of Antarctica still did not appear. I really wonder how much longer this war will last! " Chen Zhi said helplessly: "There's nothing I can do about it!"
Li Xiong sighed, "I really didn't expect that the war had already lasted half a year! My burly man's people are living in abyss of suffering! And we can't do all this for the people, it's so shameful! If there is any more chaos in the Jiao Prefecture, then the only blessed land in the world will not exist anymore! "
Chen Zhi said: "What's the use of us sighing over worldly matters here?" I said helplessly, "But there's nothing we can do! I wonder if there's any news about Cao Cao? "
Chen Zhi laughed and said: "Why do you want to rely on just a single chance of meeting him! I heard that he was recruiting in Puyang City! Could it be that you want to seek refuge with him? But it was a long way, the current world was chaotic, could Fan Li and his men even reach him? Even if we get there safely, will he take us in? " I resolutely said, "Cao Cao is not like a mortal. He has the aura of a king! I'm sure he's a monarch! It's not wrong to side with him! "
Just then, Zhang Tie ran in anxiously and cried out involuntarily: "There was an official in the lead county who was once a subordinate of my grandfather. He had received a great kindness from my grandfather, and my father had taken care of him before. That's why he sent me a secret letter. The letter said, Shi Xie ordered the Fang County's Thief County to kill us! "And that thief wanted to lure us to the lead county and imprison us, forcing Fourth Brother to hand over some things, and then finding any excuse to kill us!"
