"This is Zu Dashou's son. He doesn't look very smart. Not to mention that he is not as good as me, the wise and powerful Yushu Linfeng. Even my mediocre brother-in-law is not as good as him. No wonder he was held down.
Got it!"
Xu Renzhi looked at Zu Zehong who was brought in from outside, and listened to Jiang Wan's questions, and his mind began to involuntarily start to have thoughts.
Zu Dashou’s son! This is interesting. His father is a Tatar, and he actually dares to come to my brother-in-law with a shameless face. Is this guy planning to play a trick in front of my brother-in-law? Or,
He was really running errands for his father. I remember that this guy was probably a military commander. It was really embarrassing for him to be a military commander.
Oops, I have been fooled by my brother-in-law. How could I get involved in this kind of thing? My brother-in-law and Zu Dashou are really not clear about it at that time. Should I know, or should I pretend not to know.
Thinking of this, Xu Renzhi's face became a little uneasy. He glanced at Jiang Wan secretly. This was obviously not a good time to ask questions.
Thinking about Jiang Wan's instructions to only use his eyes and ears, he couldn't find a reason to avoid this matter at the moment.
"Please also ask Mr. Jiang to retreat to the left and right sides!"
Zu Zehong's eyes fell on Xu Renzhi, and he said such words, which made Xu Renzhi feel more and more disdainful of this traitor's son, and he even retreated. There were four people in the room, you and my brother-in-law.
Talk, apart from Lao Gao who brought you in, I am the only one left.
Damn it, am I the one who should retreat?
"If you have something to say, just say it. If you don't want to say it, forget it. Everyone in this room is more reliable than you!" Jiang Wan looked at the other party calmly: "You seem to have forgotten that you are still my prisoner now and can tell you at any time.
Prisoners of the First Army!"
Zu Zehong glanced at Xu Renzhi again and withdrew his gaze.
"I brought a message from my father!" Zu Zehong breathed a deep sigh of relief. "He told me that I will only tell you when I see Mr. Jiang face to face!"
"Say it!"
"I am in the Cao camp and my heart is in the Han Dynasty!" Zu Zehong said slowly.
"No?" Jiang Wan plucked his ears: "Did your father risk his own life to ask you to send it, just these few words, or was it a temporary reason you made up to survive?"
"Only this sentence!" Zu Zehong said calmly: "My father also said that after General Jiang heard this, he naturally knew what to do!"
"What about you? Does your father have any arrangements for you? If this sentence cannot reach my ears, but you are killed by my men, wouldn't it be a failure of your father's efforts?" Jiang Wan said slightly.
Shaked his head.
"When we arrive at Zhenjiang Fort, everything will be arranged by General Jiang!" Zu Zehong said: "As a son of a man, I naturally don't want my father to be burdened with eternal infamy. As for my personal life and death, I don't care about it for a long time!"
"Sounds very righteous!" Jiang Wan chuckled: "However, your father asked you to send this sentence to me, but you sent it to the wrong person. His sentence should be sent to His Majesty in the capital, but His Majesty is 80%
I won't believe it. Whether you are really in Cao's camp and your heart is in Han, I'm afraid it depends on what your father does. Moreover, no matter how many things your father has done, no one can understand whether your Majesty and the people of the world can forgive your father.
ensure!"
"General Jiang knows, doesn't His Majesty, who is far away in the capital, also know?" Zu Zehong said, with a slightly flattering look on his face: "General Jiang is deeply trusted by His Majesty, and is His Majesty's favorite general, even from afar.
In Shengjing, this news is no secret!"
"You look up to me so much, you look up to me so much!" Jiang Wan waved her hand.
"Except for asking you to bring me this sentence, your father has nothing else?" Jiang Wan pondered for a moment: "Interesting, your father gave me a question. Is this question good?
It’s not just about his wealth and reputation, it’s also about my future!”
Zu Zehong didn't say anything, obviously he had nothing to say.
"Take him out and put him in solitary confinement!" Jiang Wan turned to Gao Sheng and said, "He has been in Shengjing for several months and should know a lot about things there. Have a good chat with him and give him some paper."
Pen, ask him to write down everything he knows, and you can summarize it for me!"
"yes!"
"Zu Zehong!" Jiang Wan pointed at Zu Zehong in front of him and said: "If this is a trick you used to save your life, then congratulations, your plan succeeded. It doesn't matter if you kill a spy leader, but Zu Dashou's son
, but you can’t die here silently, I hope what you said is true, otherwise, when the time comes, I will send you to the capital, and I think the people in the capital will be very willing to see you chopped up alive!"
"I don't have a single lie!"
"Then follow my arrangements, then cooperate well with Gao Canjun, tell and write everything you know!" Jiang Wan said: "As for your future, it depends on your father's performance. You
Stay peacefully in my Zhenjiang Fort!"
Gao Sheng took Zu Zehong out, and Xu Renzhi took a deep breath: "Brother-in-law, I can speak now!"
"Tell me, I see you are feeling quite uncomfortable holding it in!" Jiang Wan lowered her head and took a sip of tea: "Just say what you want to say!"
"This matter... this matter, brother-in-law, you really shouldn't have asked me to come with you!" Xu Renzhi said with a bitter face: "The water here is so deep. As a small person like me, I'm afraid of being drowned!"
"Don't worry, even if I can't protect you, I still have the golden sign of your Dingguo Palace!" Jiang Wan said nonchalantly: "If you are afraid that His Majesty will ask you what you saw and heard here, you can stay here for the time being.
Just don’t go back to Beijing here!”
"How can that happen? I am an official of the Ministry of War!" Xu Renzhi was stunned and shook his head.
"Then we meet the Tartars on the road, fight hard and get seriously injured!" Jiang Wan laughed: "As long as you are willing to stay, there are many ways!"
"No, no, no, brother-in-law, please spare me. I will stay in Dongjiang Town. I don't know what your majesty thinks, but my eldest brother and my father will definitely go crazy. In the eyes of outsiders, that is me, Duke Dingguo and you.
There is no distinction between the general soldiers of Jiang Da. My eldest brother is in charge of tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of the Jingwei, and you also have tens of thousands of tigers and wolves in Dongjiang Town. I am afraid that many people will not be able to sit still!"
"Hey, you still know this?" Jiang Wan glanced at Xu Renzhi in surprise. In his eyes, Xu Renzhi had always been the second son of Xu who was a little unprofessional.
"My surname is Xu!" Xu Renzhi sighed helplessly: "It would be great if I really didn't understand anything. But I am a little bit worse than my eldest brother in martial arts and a little less beautiful than my sister.
A little bit, it can be said that he is talented and has a good face, but it is difficult not to know these things!"
"It seems that I have always underestimated you!" Jiang Wan was amused by his words: "Okay, originally I just asked you to be a witness, but since you said you are talented and... bah, you are a grown man.
It doesn’t matter if your face says something, tell me about this matter, what do you think?”
"This, can I not tell you about this?" Xu Renzhi was stunned and decisively closed his mouth: "You said you told me to wear only my eyes and ears!"
"On May 24th, the Tartars attacked Zhenjiang Fort. Xu Renzhi, the head of the Cleaning Department of the Ministry of War, took the lead and refused to retreat. He was beheaded three times..."
Jiang Wan said to himself: "It seems that it is not serious when it is said in the military newspaper. It would be better to be hit by dozens of arrows! Hmm... This won't work. There is no one who is still alive after being hit by more than a dozen arrows.
No, just be seriously injured..."
"Brother-in-law, don't, don't, I say it, I say it, I don't want to get hurt, please don't scare me, okay?"
Xu Renzhi was completely stunned and looked at Jiang Wan with a sad face: "I am your brother-in-law, so I guarantee it's true!"
