Chapter 60: Hejian Zhang He

After Zhang Liao followed Ma Chao's order, he left Wude with letters and edicts, and rushed to Yecheng day and night.

A few days later, Zhang Liao finally saw Yecheng. Seeing that the city was in sight, Zhang Liao breathed a sigh of relief. He was about to drive his horse into the city, but was stopped by soldiers at the gate. Seeing this, Zhang Liao immediately raised his edict and shouted: "Let's go away quickly. I will come to pass the edict according to the order of the empress dowager. How dare you resist the emperor's order?"

"Hmph, He Fangzi, you dare to pretend to be an envoy, but you won't dismount and be inspected." The gatekeeper school saw Zhang Liao's hair disheveled, his face was stained, and his clothes were even more ragged. No matter how you look, he didn't look like an envoy of the court. Therefore, when he heard Zhang Liao's shouting, he not only was not afraid, but also started to scream on the spot.

Zhang Liao was only concerned about entering the city, and he would think of this floor. The road was full of dust and day and night. He was able to pack his face, and his clothes were cut by thorns while rushing at night. The smoke and dust covered the way made him look more like a liar, rather than a lofty imperial envoy.

Seeing that they were talking back, Zhang Liao obviously did not recognize the imperial edict in his hand, and immediately shouted: "Bastard, call you general."

"My general is marrying a concubine today. I don't have time to see you, a liar. If you know the truth, get out of here. Otherwise, don't blame me for treating you as a yellow treacherous and arrested you for being a thief." Seeing Zhang Liao's tough attitude, the school immediately became angry and threatened and shouted.

"Go!" Zhang Liao saw that they couldn't understand and was too lazy to pay attention to it. He wanted to rush over, but unexpectedly, the surrounding people were already surrounded by people watching the fun, blocking his way forward.

"Bold thief, dare to break through the barrier, brothers take it down." The soldiers guarding at the door held up their weapons and surrounded Zhang Liao when they heard Shangguan's call.

"Person Wang, are you extorting money from the people again?" Seeing that a battle was about to happen, a team of inspectors came over, and the young general in charge shouted to the small school with a sarcastic look on his face.

"Zhang He, put your mouth cleanly. I'm catching a liar." The arrogant school just now turned out to be the surname Wang. When Zhang He called out mockingly, he immediately shouted in anger.

Zhang Liao looked up and saw Zhang He who was about the same age as him, with a dignified appearance and a serious face. When he met him, he obviously wanted to solve the danger for him, and Zhang Liao naturally had a good impression of him.

"I am an envoy of the court. At the will of the Empress Dowager, I came to issue an edict and asked this general to lead the visit to the governor of Hanzhou." Zhang Liao immediately raised the edict and shouted again.

"Wang Tong, you are so bold. You dare to stop the envoy from entering the city. You must go to the other place to sue you." Zhang He is not a rash man who has never read books. At this moment, he could see at a glance that the golden-edged cloth edict in Zhang Liao's hand must be true, because such luxurious things are generally available only in the palace.

The edict in Zhang Liao's hand was the edict written by the Shao Emperor on the eve of his death in the palace. The edict in the back mirror brought it out of the palace.

Seeing Zhang He saying this, Wang Tong felt guilty in his heart. Looking at the edict in Zhang Liao's hand, although he did not believe it, he did not dare to offend him again.

"Sir, please come with me." Zhang He drank the crowd and walked to Zhang Liao, took Zhang Liao's war horse and came out loudly.

"In Xiayanmen Zhang Liao, Zhang Wenyuan, thank you for your support." When he walked out of the crowd, Zhang Liao turned over and dismounted, bowed and thanked him.

"Brother Wenyuan, some small things are necessary, so why bother with it? Zhang He and Zhang Junyi (Junyi) in Xiahejian." Zhang He felt very intimate when he saw that he did not report his official position, but made friends with his personality as a knight. He was also very fond of a great student.

"Brother Wenyuan came from afar, and was full of dust. Although he was working hard for the country, his outfit would probably damage the prestige of the court. Why not go to our mansion and wash it up and then pass the imperial edict?" Seeing Zhang Liao's sloppy appearance, Zhang He thought to himself that no wonder Wang Tong would stop him.

Zhang Liaojing realized his mistake just now when he was involved in the city gate. He was so happy that he heard Zhang He say this: "For this, I will thank you brother."

Then Zhang He ordered his soldiers to continue patrolling the city, and he led Zhang Liao back home. However, when Zhang Liao was surprised, Zhang He's family was very poor, and the house he lived in was also a dirt house, and there was almost no valuable thing in the house.

"Brother, you are the only one in the family?" Zhang Liao asked in a deep voice when he saw that there was no one in the house.

"My family is all in his hometown in Hejian. I have just come to Yecheng to join the army. I am currently in a low position and have no money to buy a house." Zhang He smiled optimistically, picked up the bucket and went to pick up the water outside the house.

Looking at Zhang He's back, Zhang Liao said intimately: This person is optimistic and open-minded and has a decent wording. Because he should have read books, he walked with steady steps and divine light in his eyes. He must be extraordinary. Such a talent is so powerful that he can't afford such a position.

"Brother Wenyuan, please wait for a moment and let me set the torch and heat the water." Zhang He said relaxedly, carrying two large buckets of water.

Seeing this, Zhang Liao hurriedly said, "Young brother doesn't have to work hard. I am a martial artist, so why bother with cold water? I won't worry about not getting you."

"Brother Wenyuan, this winter is really cold water?" Zhang He asked in surprise.

Zhang Liao smiled and said, "I'm used to it."

Seeing Zhang Liao carrying a bucket and cleaning and bathing in his bath room, Zhang He couldn't help but feel moved. He didn't expect that Zhang Liao could take a cold shower in this season when there were snowflakes floating outside.

"It's so comfortable." After a while, after Zhang Liao finished washing, he changed into neat clothes and said cheerfully and walked out.

"Brother Wen Yuan, you have a good physique!" Zhang He couldn't help but exclaim.

Zhang Liao smiled indifferently and said, "Brother, now General Liao can enter the provincial governor's mansion?"

"Brother Wenyuan, you and I have the same surname. We were a family five hundred years ago. If you don't dislike me, I would like to be your brother. I don't know what to do?" Zhang He saw Zhang Liao's majestic appearance and was in a similar position with him, and couldn't help but feel aspiring to make friends.

"I can't find it." Zhang Liao replied immediately.
