This is great. After a "ride", the reputation of the Princess of Lu was completely ruined!
The princess of Lu was successfully driven back to her natal family. This made the king of Lu feel a "big knot" in his heart.
Tan Jun sent General Zhao to see the king of Wu with the letter he wrote. He thought that he had already driven away the princess of Lu. With this sincerity, he could return to Wu, right?
Wu Guo was rich and noble, but he didn't like the small Tan State at all. He just threw the letter from General Zhao aside, asked someone to take him out for a good meal, and then sent him back, saying only: " "We need to discuss it, we need to discuss it", there is no time when "the discussion comes to a conclusion".
Although General Zhao was greeted with delicious food and drinks every day, he could only wait and worry in his apartment, looking forward to the news of being summoned every day, but nothing happened. As time went by, the food provided to him became worse and worse. Almost no one took care of him, and the dry food he brought was no longer enough to survive. General Zhao became angry and decided to go straight to the main hall again to face him again. See Wu Jun and ask him to give a definite explanation.
"General, please return to Tan Kingdom first! My Lord has gone out to escape the summer heat and has not been in the palace recently."
The reply given by the palace man was so cold that Yang Zhen almost forgot about the heat and the torment of hunger and thirst.
"Escape from the summer heat? Did you tell me earlier?"
Yang Pou couldn't help but asked the palace man angrily.
"It's boring! There are so many things going on in the palace, I'm too busy to forget! General, please forgive me!"
Although the palace official's tone was polite, the "invite" and "expulsion" actions were fully implemented, clearly giving an "expulsion order".
Yang Zhen knew that it would be useless to talk any more, so he had no choice but to angrily go back to his apartment to pack his luggage, ride his white horse, and return to the country of Tan in dejection to pay the errand.
Tan Guo's small move to secretly communicate with Wu finally reached the king of Lu.
The Lu State was not willing to give up, so the king of the Lu State convened the Jin State and the Zhu State. After a meeting, they issued an official resolution and once again declared their sovereignty over the Tan State.
With no other choice, Tan Jun had to swallow his anger and prepare to be a "loyal" younger brother again.
However, with all the changes, how could the Lu State believe that the Tan State would never change again? So, the Princess of Lu ordered someone behind Jun Lu’s back:
"It's all my fault, General Baima Zhao, who ruined my reputation! He must be killed!"
Tan Guo's sincerity was tied to Yang Zhen's head again.
When they made the conditions, they made it clear and open: all misunderstandings were due to General Zhao using the name of the savior to frame the princess's reputation, have an affair with Wu, and sow discord between the two countries. The root of this evil is completely eradicated.
Tan Jun naturally believed in General Zhao. But at this time, he had to be sacrificed in order to gain the Lu State's trust in him.
When a piece of paper "condemning" was delivered to General Zhao, who had just returned to Tan State, Yang Zhen heard the voice again:
"Haha... I can't help it. Some people are born to be little people. They are like this all their lives. They deserve to be invisible. They dare not speak out or complain. Are they living a useless life? Hahahaha... This is life, this is life!”
"Husband!"
"Grandpa! Grandpa!"
Poor Yang Zhen's family, before they had time to go to the Song Dynasty to visit relatives and have a "return home in fine clothes", a "catastrophe was coming" first!
Looking at his wife and children who were crying in a ball at his feet, Yang Zhen clenched the "imperial edict" in his hand bitterly, threw it into the air, tore it into two halves with his bare hands, and threw it to the ground.
The messenger was so frightened by General Zhao's move that he turned around and ran away, but he couldn't escape in time!
Before the person had retreated ten meters, the head had been "forcibly left" in General Zhao's Mansion.
General Zhao's men on the left and right had already seen this and took action, killing all the small officials on the spot who had sent the order to condemn them.
Seeing the tragic separation of the corpses in Yiting, General Zhao's wife quickly stopped crying and buried the children's heads together in her arms to prevent them from seeing this scene.
"General! Rebellion!"
"Inverted!"
"Inverted!!"
The soldiers in the court knew the consequences of this angry killing.
"Stop."
Yang Zhen shook off the general's cloak, took off the general's crown himself, threw it to the ground, and said calmly to the excited soldiers:
"What happened today, as you brothers can see, is that it was not me who betrayed Mr. Tan, but Mr. Tan who betrayed me. This change was not my wish, but I am grateful for the righteous deeds of all my brothers. If you do not abandon me, please follow me out of the city immediately and take care of it. In the countries of Tan, Lu, Wu, and Chu, we can find a place where we can be at ease, establish our own country, and be free from now on! Are you willing?"
"willing!"
"willing!"
…
The soldiers were not in the mood to deal with the corpses of the officials of the order-delivery unit who were arrayed in the courtyard. They stood on the ground in the courtyard, raising their swords, cheering and responding.
"Thank you all! I know that every family has a family and a family. If you don't take them with you when you go, you will be in great trouble if you stay here. Therefore, I want to save myself, and I will also save the whole family. For this reason. I have a plan that can save everyone, young and old, please follow it."
At this time, Yang Zhen did not lose his mind. Faced with this important decision, he suddenly felt calmer than ever before, so he stopped, thought for a moment, and then continued to preach to everyone:
"Brothers under the tent, pick a group of homeless people, pretend to be messengers, and take my family to the government to return orders. The rest of the brothers go back to their respective homes, pack up their belongings, bring their families, wear commoners and casual clothes, and go to the market as market officials. The identity of the people was mixed outside the city. Eighty miles south of the city, the boundary mountain with the Song and Lu countries was publicly owned by the three countries. It was desolate, dangerous and inaccessible. There were many caves in the fruit area, one of which could contain a lake, and there were The clean water can be used for daily life. We are all gathered in Guodu. After I give the officials three days to delay, I will find an opportunity to get out of the woods and leave the city to meet you again! Is there anyone who doesn’t know?"
"Ming! Ming!"
"General, if you can't come out, will you be killed? How can we rest assured?"
One of the soldiers asked with a worried look on his face.
"Don't worry! I have a way."
The reason why Yang Zhenzhi dared to take such a bold risk was because he was betting on Tan Jun's easily shaken heart.
Even if Tan Jun can't move, his kung fu and the connections he has built up in the military over the years are enough to make his plan to "escape" successful come true.
As he said, this Tan Jun is really "soft-hearted". Although he knew that he was in the wrong and did not dare to interrogate Yang Zhen in person and confront his "General Zhao", General Zhao's "blood letter" still softened his heart.
"An old saying goes: Accompanying the king is like accompanying a tiger. When he was summoned to the country of Tan, he received great favor from the king. In the army, he was promoted step by step with military merit. He was unworthy of the position of general. However, he often forgot his duty, and his merits exceeded those of force. He pretended to be a leader, blindly went to Wu, pretended to be a general, and returned without success. He was guilty of the ten clans, and he knew that his crime was unforgivable.
