Two days later.
After learning the lesson from last time, Zhang Heng stayed at home and went out for the past two days, but there was no news from Xu Rong.
Seeing that the day when Dong Zhuo's class teacher was getting closer and closer, Zhang Heng couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
At this time, Taishi Ci opened the door and walked in.
"Master Chief, there is news from Xu Rong!"
Zhang Heng looked up and saw the smile on Tai Shici's face, and knew that the matter was half done.
"Why, Xu Wenyao agreed?"
Taishi Ci smiled and said: "The chief administrator has a clever plan. Xu Rong requested to meet with the chief administrator tonight."
"No, I won't go. You can meet me on my behalf." Zhang Heng shook his head and said, "The last time we met, it was already a bit risky. It's better not to show up this time. Tell Xu Wenyao that it's empty talk and let him take it. Show some sincerity."
Zhang Heng's implication was to ask Xu Rongna to surrender, so that both of them could rest assured.
"The general will understand that it's just this so-called sincerity..."
Zhang Heng smiled, "Just tell him, he will understand. Besides, I also want to be alone..."
"As you command!"
Taishi Ci clasped his fists and left.
…
Inside Sikong Prison.
In the Han Dynasty, Sikong was responsible for punishment, so the prison was named Left and Right Sikong Prison, which was responsible for guarding some high-ranking officials.
Xun You raised his head and looked out from the exhaust window. The moonlight just shone on his dull face.
Next to him, He Yong had already taken off his belt and hung it on the beam.
"Gongda, let me take the first step."
Xun You turned around and nodded numbly, with no trace of emotion in his expression, but a trace of undetectable disdain in his eyes.
If you had been willing to follow my plan, you would have killed the Dong thief long ago. How could you have ended up like this?
Last year, Xun You, He Yong and others plotted to assassinate Dong Zhuo, but it was exposed before they even started, and Dong Zhuo was imprisoned. It has been more than half a year.
Fortunately, they hadn't started taking action yet. Dong Zhuo had no real evidence, otherwise he wouldn't have survived until now.
What happened is actually very simple. Xun You suggested not to mention it, not to let too many people know, and to wait until the right time to kill Dong Zhuo with one blow.
However, He Yong believed that the more helpers the better, and actively contacted people with lofty ideals from all sides to conspire together. It felt like summoning teammates to kill the BOSS together.
Therefore, it was logical that he was betrayed, and even Xun You was captured and imprisoned.
The other people in the gang had been tortured to death a long time ago. Only because the two of them had virtuous reputations and were members of aristocratic families were they able to survive until now.
But death is not far away.
He Yong tied the rope, turned to Xun You and smiled resolutely: "Gongda, although we can't kill the thief, we are still dedicated to serving the country. We are brave and loyal. We can shine on the sun and the moon, so there is no need to fear death!"
After saying that, He Yong stretched his head into the noose, kicked off his feet, and after struggling for a moment, he stopped moving.
On the side, Xun You watched all this with cold eyes. Until the moment of He Yong's death, there was no wave in his eyes.
It wasn't until He Yong was completely breathless that Xun You sighed, straightened his clothes, and solemnly raised his hands to He Yong's body hanging in the air.
"Brother Boqiu, have a good trip!"
As he said, although this guy is a bit stupid, his passion is real. How can he not be admirable.
But admiration is due to admiration. It is absolutely impossible for Xun You to imitate He Yong and commit suicide.
A true man should be useful and wait for the right time!
It would be pleasant to die now, but it would be meaningless.
Even though he knew he would die in the end, Xun You would never give up until the last moment!
When he thought of this, Xun You's dull face was filled with determination.
But at this moment, there was a sudden movement outside the prison, and Xun You quickly turned his head and looked outside.
After Dong Zhuo imprisoned these people last year, he ushered in the crusade from the Kwantung princes. Dong Zhuo, who was so busy, turned around and forgot about these people.
Up to now, Xun You has not seen anyone coming from outside the prison for several months.
As the footsteps approached, a man who looked like a military general walked in, it was Xu Rong.
After Xu Rong walked in, the first thing he saw was He Yong, who had just hanged himself to death. He couldn't help but look shocked.
What do you mean, you are going to die to demonstrate to me?
But has this guy found the wrong person?
Looking next to the corpse, a dull-looking man sitting on the ground with a dull expression and dull eyes was seen.
Damn it, the person I'm looking for must be dead!
"Quick, put it down quickly!"
Xu Rong immediately pointed at He Yong's body and shouted loudly,
Upon hearing this, the jailer immediately opened the cell door and rushed in. He cut the rope on which He Yong was hanging and put him down.
Reaching out to check his breathing, the jailer's expression changed, and he turned to Xu Rong and said: "General, he is dead."
"ah?"
Xu Rong cried out and quickly turned his attention to Xun You.
Although there was little hope, Xu Rong still raised his hand and asked, "Who are you, sir?"
Although Xun You couldn't figure out what Xu Rong was here for, he still said: "I am Xun Gongda, the servant of Huangmen!"
"It turns out that you are Xun Gongda!" Xu Rong said with great joy.
It's good that you're not dead, it's good that you're not dead, now you can do your job.
The person Zhang Heng asked Xu Rong wanted was none other than Xun You.
Later, as Cao Cao's first counselor, Xun You's ability made him the most powerful among the counselors of the Three Kingdoms.
It just so happened that this guy was in trouble now, and it happened that his uncle Zhang Wen had a good relationship with Xun Shuang, the current head of the Xun family in Yingchuan, so Zhang Heng thought about whether he could take this guy into his own hands.
Moreover, before the death of Emperor Ling, this guy served as the Huangmen Minister under He Jin, so he knew the situation in Luoyang very well. With him helping you plan, the probability of success will be much greater.
Even if he is not used at this time, Xun You will still be an indispensable talent in fighting for world hegemony in the future.
In a word, no matter what, get it in your hands first.
After Xu Rong received Zhang Heng's request, he immediately rushed to Sikong Prison. Seeing that Xun You's face was dull and not very smart, he thought that the hanged He Yong was the person Zhang Heng was looking for, and was shocked.
After looking Xun You up and down, Xu Rong couldn't help but feel puzzled.
What does Mr. Ziyi value about such a foolish person?
In line with the principle of being loyal to others, Xu Rong did not intend to ask more questions. He just smiled at Xun You and said, "Sir, I was entrusted by others to rescue you from prison. Please change your clothes."
Hearing this, a glimmer of light suddenly flashed in Xun You's dull eyes.
"Who entrusted you to your Excellency?"
At this juncture, who will come to save him?
"I can't say anything yet. You will know later, so please change your clothes first."
Xu Rong ordered the jailer to take out a set of clothes and signaled Xun You to change into them first.
Hearing this, Xun You started to change clothes without hesitation.
No matter who saves him, Xun You will not let go of any chance he gets to escape.
If this person wants to harm him, he can kill him with one knife. There is no need to go through all these twists and turns.
Not long after, Xun You changed his clothes and walked out of Sikong Prison under the leadership of Xu Rong.
After the jailer sent the two people outside, one of them smiled and said: "General Xu, the people have also been released. Look..."
"Don't worry, the benefits of the two brothers will certainly not be lost."
Xu Rong laughed, took out a few pieces of horseshoe gold from his arms and handed them over.
"Thank you, General, for the reward. Thank you, General, for the reward!"
When the two saw Horse Shoe Gold, they were as excited as if they had met their biological father, and they thanked Xu Rong repeatedly.
Xu Rong smiled again and said: "The benefit is for you two, but you have to keep this matter a secret for me."
"Okay, okay, general, don't worry, I will keep this matter secret!"
"I can rest assured that……"
Xu Rong said with a smile, but before he finished speaking, Xu Rong suddenly pulled out the sword from his waist.
A cold light flashed, and the heads of the two jailers fell to the ground.
The accident happened so quickly that the two soldiers had no time to react. When their heads rolled to the ground, they still had smiles on their faces.
"What a trick, General!"
Xun You gave Xu Rong a thumbs up and praised him.
If He Yongruo had such courage in the first place, how could he end up hanging himself?
"Sir, that's ridiculous. In order to keep it secret, we have to do this!"
Xu Rong sheathed his sword, shook his head and sighed.
At this time, more than ten men in black walked out of the darkness, and they were Xu Rong's servants.
"Go and set a fire. Leave immediately after the fire gets bigger. Don't hesitate."
Xu Rong said, bent down and took back the pieces of horseshoe gold from the corpse, and threw them to his servant.
The quantity is neither too much nor too little, just one piece per person.
"As you command!"
After receiving the horseshoe gold, all the servants clasped their fists and said.
Xu Rong nodded, took out a bag from his arms, smiled at Xun You and said, "Sir, let's go. In order to act safely, I have to aggrieve you."
Of course Xun You understood what he meant, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said calmly: "General, wait a moment, I will do it myself."
Hearing this, Xu Rong handed over the bag in his hand, watched Xun You put it on his head, and then led him to disappear into the darkness.
After being hooded, Xun You naturally couldn't sense everything in the outside world and could only let Xu Rong lead him forward.
He didn't know how long he had been walking, and he didn't know how long he had been walking. Xun You felt that an hour or two had passed when someone suddenly took off the bag on his head.
Suddenly, light from all around flooded into his eyes.
Xun You looked around at his surroundings and found that he was already in a room.
What came into view from the front was a man in white with a gentle smile on his face.
"Is Gongda okay?"
Zhang Heng saw Xun You's confused face, so he smiled and said.
