Chapter 10: What's the Plan? (3)
This answer made Zhang Liang look at Chu He even more intently.
To be honest, Chu He wasn't born badly. He was even very delicate. He didn't have the strength to tie up a chicken, but he was different from Zhang Liang. He was weak, but he had more masculinity. If the current Zhang Liang was like a tender bamboo. Then he was Bai Song. There was a qualitative difference.
This was a world where looks mattered. As long as one's face was good, one's life wouldn't be too bad.
Chu He's sudden surrender to him made him curious.
For example, was he trying to drive a wedge between him and his grandfather, Prime Minister Zhang?
Zhang Liang was still being humble. Chu He did not like to be treated with such courtesy.
Since this was Zhang Liang, he didn't need to be polite with him.
"The current official positions are all hereditary. The Zhang family has been the prime minister of the Han country for generations, and the future prime minister will definitely be Mr. Fang Liang. Therefore, I value Mr. Fang Liang, so I naturally came to seek refuge with Mr. Fang Liang. Moreover, even if Zifang's wings were not fully grown yet, I had already come to seek refuge at this time. It was better than seeking refuge with the fully grown Prime Minister. Moreover, he won't be put in an important position."
"..." Zhang Liang was silent for a moment, then said," Then what do you mean by the important news?”
Zhang Liang seemed to have already begun to test Chu He's value.
Anyone could say beautiful words, but Chu He's words just now could almost be regarded as sowing discord.
That was why he sounded like that.
Moreover, he had to judge Chu He's value and even grasp Chu He's true intentions.
"When I entered the city today, I heard the news of the mysterious disappearance of the army's pay, the ghosts, and the deaths of the people involved. And I came to seek refuge with Zifang precisely because I grasped the key information of this case.”Chu He knew that Zhang Liang wanted to test him, so he thought of a story on the way to Xinzheng.”
The time was right. He met Yan Lingji, and then Yan Lingji escaped from the thousand-year crystal. At this time, the Han Country's villain general, Ji Wuye, also started to cause trouble.
This was the beginning of the matter, so he came at the right time.
Tian Xing Jiuge's world began with the Han Country's powerful minister, Ji Wuye, controlling the court. Then, he deliberately created one case after another to weaken other forces.
He had to explain the situation in Han.
Just like the relationship between the Western Zhou Dynasty and the enfeoffed countries in the past, the King of Han was the King of Zhou, and the ministers under him were all of noble birth and hereditary. Therefore, the power of the King of Han was actually very small.
The dynasty was controlled by powerful officials, and Ji Wuye was one of the nobles. However, because he was a general and could fight, he was promoted very quickly and established an organization called Night. He roped in the King of Han's concubine, the Tide Lady Demon, another general noble, the Snow Garment Marquis, as well as the straw raincoat guest and the local tyrant Jade Tiger. These people contributed a lot to his power.
Now that his power had reached a new height, it had caused dissatisfaction among the old nobles, led by the Prime Minister Zhang Kedi.
Therefore, she was putting pressure on him.
However, Ji Wuye refused to be pressured, so he turned the tables and deliberately created the military pay case to suppress Zhang Kedi.
Even the King of Han pressured Zhang Kai Di to take over the complicated military pay case. And now, the Zhang family was having a headache.
After asking others about the occurrence and development of the military pay case, Chu He was relieved. Because this was the same as the original work, he confidently came to Zhang Liang to recommend himself.
It could be said that the Zhang family was currently in a dilemma.
The Zhang family was very powerful, and Han Wangan was probably tired of staying like King You of Zhou. He wanted to gain power, so he cooperated with the Zhang family to pressure them.
And because of this state, Zhang Liang had indiscriminately called him to get on the carriage.
This meant that the Zhang family was panicking.
Zhang Liang probably left the city this time to investigate the scene to see if there were any clues.
"Sir, please help me." Zhang Liang immediately clasped his hands in front of his chest, humble and respectful.
However, because of the test just now, Chu He could not believe him so quickly.
Because…
His words were flawed. For example, since he was a witness, why didn't he report to the authorities? Why didn't he appear? This was a suspicious point. It even gave Zhang Liang an excuse. If they couldn't investigate the case clearly, they could treat him as a suspect and hand him in.
Therefore, she was sincere when she said that she would help him.
Chu He needed to gain Zhang Liang's trust, so he was willing to take the risk. He had already chosen his escape route. If Zhang Liang took it to report to him, he would go to Ji Wuye. After all, knowing the plot was beneficial no matter which side it was.
But now, he was still betting on Zhang Liang.
Therefore, Chu He replied,"May I ask if Zifang wants to say a small gang or a big gang?" Just like what I said earlier, the small gang will use a person's confession, which I don't know if it's true or not, to take the blame and take on the task that the Han King has given Minister Zhang. He had to save his life first. Or perhaps…they wanted to protect the Zhang Clan?”
"What do you mean?"
"Investigating a case doesn't necessarily mean that it's a real case. You investigate because you don't know the result, and you investigate because no one is responsible. As long as someone is responsible and someone bears the consequences, the authenticity of the case doesn't matter.”
"…Sir, you…"
Zhang Liang was stunned.
However, Chu He continued.
