Chapter 5059 Take off the disguise and reveal your true self

Half an hour later, on the outskirts of Nankang City, there was Dingjia Rice Shop.

On an open field filled with rice, hundreds of rice store clerks were moving like ants, either on their backs or using small carts to transport bags of rice, and almost the same amount

The soldiers assisted in guarding and occasionally helped. Everyone's face was filled with joyful expressions, as if they were farmers who had harvested a good harvest. Such a large amount of military rations was obviously enough to feed the garrison in the city for a long time. How could they be unhappy?

Woolen cloth.

But Zhang Yu was obviously not too happy. He stood with his hands behind his back on a hill overlooking the rice store, while the steward named Uncle Bao stood behind him holding a ledger.

, four or five personal guards were standing under the hill. Changyu seemed to be very preoccupied, and did not pay attention to the delivery of food and grass in the distance, until Uncle Bao called him respectfully several times.

After that, he came back to his senses and his eyes fell on the account book in Uncle Bao's hand.

Uncle Bao's voice was not loud, but full of respect: "Zhang Changshi, all the fifty thousand shi of military rations have been counted, and there are still two hoards left to transport them. At that time, I will have to trouble all the military lords to deliver all the rations."

In the camp."

Zhang Yu nodded and looked back at the guards under the hill: "You guys should also help and transport all the military rations back as soon as possible."

The leader, a sergeant who looked like a junior officer, said in a deep voice: "Zhang Changshi, our mission is to protect your safety, not..."

Zhang Yu waved his hand: "I'm safe here and don't need your protection. You can go ahead. I want to be alone."

The sergeants hesitated for a moment, then bowed and retreated. On the hill, only Zhang Yu and Uncle Bao were left. When the figures of these sergeants appeared in the square and joined the teams transporting food, Chang Yu

Then he sighed softly: "Uncle Bao, are you from Jingkou? Or are you from Huainan?"

Uncle Bao smiled slightly and closed the account book in his hand: "I am from Chu. I have lived in Jingkou for a year or two and also lived in Shouchun, Huainan. How can you recognize my accent?"

Zhang Yu curled up his lips: "You just inadvertently expressed a few sentences. My sergeants may not understand them, but after all, I was born and raised in Wu, so how can I not understand these Yangzhou people?"

What about the accent? Mrs. Ding sent you here to follow me, and you deliberately revealed your identity as a Wu native. Do you want to discuss something with me? Who are you?"

Uncle Bao said calmly: "Zhang Changshi, why do you ask me about my identity? I am just Ding Baogui, the steward of the Ding family. Those who think highly of me just call me Uncle Bao. I have been dealing with you for a year. Even if our family is old,

Taijun wants to discuss something with you, and it has nothing to do with my identity."

Zhang Yu said coldly: "In that case, Mrs. Ding asked me to come over to receive fifty thousand shi of military rations. I have already received them. If there is nothing else, I will go back and resume my life."

Uncle Bao's eyes flashed coldly: "That Zhang Changshi, where are you going back to and who are you returning to?"

Zhang Yu's expression changed: "Of course I'm going back to the river bank, oh, no, I should be going back to the county governor's house to report back to Prefect Bao about receiving military rations. Why did Uncle Bao ask this?"

Uncle Bao shook his head: "Then you have not considered how to return to Jiankang, return to Liu Yu who appointed you as the prefect of Jin'an, and report your work to your ancestors of the Zhang family in Wuxing?"

Zhang Yu's eyes widened, he looked straight at Uncle Bao, and said in a deep voice: "Who are you?"

Uncle Bao said calmly: "I am just someone who has been ordered by Mrs. Ding to assist Zhang Changshi. However, Zhang Changshi, I'm afraid you have to think clearly about the problem I just asked. You also need to think about it.

How will your family in Wuxing miss you and see you now?"

A look of helplessness and pain flashed across Zhang Yu's face, he closed his eyes and murmured: "I can't look back anymore. Just like what Mrs. Ding said, I am greedy for life and afraid of death. I am weak in resistance and can neither complete the task."

It is my duty to guard Jin'an, and I cannot die to repay the imperial court. For more than a year, I have been working here for Tianshi Dao, but everyone looks down on me. I think about dying every day, but I think of my own sins.

It's so serious that if you die like this without being able to atone for your sins, you will only become the laughing stock of the world. Uncle Bao, I know that your old lady and Master Ding have always been dissatisfied with the Bao brothers and will fight back if they have the chance. I'm afraid this is what you are doing today

Come find my reasons."

When he said this, he opened his eyes and looked directly at Uncle Bao's face. However, he suddenly saw a different face. He was a man in his thirties, with a cold expression but a resolute expression.

Isn’t it Zhu Chaoshi?!

Chang Yu was so shocked that he almost screamed and covered his mouth. Uncle Bao, who had bowed his head respectfully just now, no longer had a hunched back, straightened his waist, and instantly transformed into the Jiang he once was.

Zhu Chaoshi, the deputy general of the state, only heard Zhu Chaoshi's voice, echoing coldly in Changyu's ears: "Changyu, seeing that you still have some conscience and want to turn around and make meritorious service to atone for your sins, I will also pick it up in front of you.

Below the mask. I used to be trapped in the enemy's camp just like you, and life was worse than death. If I hadn't thought about revenge and atonement, I would have followed Brother Wuji to death. But I still survived, and I still survived.

On the day of revenge, you should know these things best."

Zhang Yu gritted his teeth and nodded: "Unexpectedly, General Zhu, you actually dared to sneak back to Nankang alone. Are you here to assassinate Bao Haozi and avenge the soldiers and people who died when Nankang fell?"

Zhu Chaoshi smiled slightly: "I am a general with thousands of troops under my command. I have just led my army to defeat the demon thief Xu Daofu in Jingzhou. Why do I have to come back alone to take revenge? Since I appear here, I have a perfect plan to eliminate those people.

Bao Haozi."

Zhang Yu laughed: "I knew that General Zhu would have a way to take revenge when he came back. So with your heroic skills, why didn't you just kill Bao Haozi by the Ninety-Nine Curved River? With your ability

, it couldn’t be easier to kill him.”

Zhu Chaoshi shook his head: "It is easy to kill a Bao Haozi, but it is not easy to kill all five thousand of his subordinates. Moreover, if we scare the snake and let some of these thieves run out and report the news, then the returning regiment led by Bao Hao will be killed.

But it is not so easy to eliminate them. This time when I return to Nankang, what I want is to kill all these enemies and their thieves. No one will be left alive. Changyu, can you help me? Are you willing?

Help me?"

Zhang Yu nodded excitedly and said: "I am willing to work like a dog and horse to atone for my sin!" (End of this chapter)
