"What? How come there are Yellow Turbans in Jiangdong territory, and they sneak into my Zhu family in Wu County to commit murder?"
When Sheng Xian heard the panicked shouts of the intruding county soldiers, a look of horror suddenly flashed across his face. That's right, even though Zhang Jiao had been killed, the yellow scarf thieves still made these prefects and county magistrates frightened by his name.
But Xu Gong was much calmer than Sheng Xian. He just stood up and was about to ask about the specific situation.
However, the movements of the two of them were not as fast as Zhu Kui's. Everything was too deliberate. Zhu Kui preempted the two masters' questioning. Sheng Xian thought that Zhu Kui was a general who put down the Yellow Turbans. It was a normal reaction to hear the Yellow Turban thieves.
, and Xu Gong thought for a moment, and immediately understood that everything was premeditated. He, Zhu Kui, had been waiting for the report from the county soldiers for a long time.
Everything was because he was going to attack the Zhu family of Wu County. Everything was planned. No wonder he visited the governor's house and talked about it at the banquet. It turned out that everything was just to delay time.
This county soldier may have received the report for a long time, but because the prefect ordered that there be no urgent matter, he should not be disturbed.
It seems that at least four alarms were sent back, so the gatekeeper felt that it was urgent and had to break into the hall to report.
Without him, one of the two captains and prefects of Wu Commandery, the county defense would not be able to send out soldiers, and the few patrolling county soldiers were afraid of the bad reputation of the Yellow Turban Thieves, so how could they dare to really investigate anything.
Xu Gong glanced at Zhu Kui thoughtfully. The latter seemed to be aware of it but did not make any expression. Xu Gong calmed down and asked the officer who reported the report: "What is the situation? Tell me carefully."
explain."
"Yes...yes, sir!" Seeing Xu Gong's anger, the county soldier forcibly calmed down his breathing and said: "To tell you what to say, sir, several people came to report that suddenly something happened to the Zhu family's mansion in the neighborhood.
The shouts of killing spread out, and filled the surrounding streets and alleys thickly. Then several brothers ran to check, but who knew that the main door of Zhu's Mansion was open, and not far after entering, there was
I saw many warriors with yellow scarves on their heads in the Zhu Mansion, chasing the guards of the Zhu family with sharp weapons, and watched as the guards arrived one by one..."
"Because we were outnumbered and afraid of being discovered by the yellow turban thief, those brothers retreated quietly. What is going on in the Zhu Mansion now is unclear..."
Hearing this, Xu Gong immediately changed his face. These men really embarrassed him. Some of the suspected Yellow Turban strongmen were so frightened that he lost face in front of outsiders. He couldn't help but asked again: "Why is it so late for such a big event?"
Report."
"Because..." The county soldier was too scared to answer. Could it be that he was watching you adults having a banquet in the hall and was afraid of disturbing your interest.
At this time, Zhu Kui came out to relieve him and said: "Captain Xu, Lord Prefect, time is pressing. Let's not hold the subordinates accountable for now. Let Huai Ming and Captain Xu go to see where they are."
The Yellow Turban strongmen dared to commit crimes in Jiangdong so brazenly, and they even chose my Zhu family."
Zhu Kui raised his hands to Sheng Xian and Xu Gong respectively, and took two steps forward slightly, with an anxious look on his face, as if he was extremely worried about the safety of his Zhu family.
"Okay, okay! Then please trouble Huai Ming and Captain Xu to go see you. What's going on?" Sheng Xian was overjoyed when he heard Zhu Kui's request, and agreed without asking Xu Gong's opinion.
It's not his fault. There was no such thing as retirement in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Officials generally stayed in office until their death. Sheng Xian was over sixty years old. Although he had held the position of prefect for decades and developed a shrewd way of being an official,
But it is inevitable that time will take its toll. Nowadays, when encountering something, the first thought in my mind is to keep the current peaceful situation and not grow old and miserable.
According to official history, Sheng Xian fell ill in 194, and not long after that, others died of illness. Counting now, he only had a few years to live.
Once he got Sheng Xian's consent, Zhu Kui ignored Xugong's
