At this moment, Gongsun Zhi asked in a serious tone: "If it is as the eldest prince said, Taiping Dao is a big hidden danger?"

Chun Yupei sighed and said slowly: "There are reports from time to time in the counties of Xuanfu County, and the number of Taiping Dao believers in each county is increasing day by day. In the past, they used to meet once a month to hold rituals to diagnose diseases with water. Now, after a few days, there is a gathering, and there are a large number of people, which really makes people deeply worried. However, even so, there have been no major accidents in this county in the past few years, and I am afraid that more evidence is needed to say that Taiping Road can set off turmoil in the world.

He paused, as if sensing the reaction of everyone present, and then added: "No matter what, I still have to beware of thieves in the borderlands." If someone secretly colludes with the thieves to cause chaos, it will be impossible to prevent it. This time, Taiping Dao and the thieves were connected, which was more or less a warning. Zu

Zhao didn't think that Gongsun Zhi's words and Chun Yupei's words were the same, Chun Yupei's thought that it was obviously affected by the local situation in Xuansu County, Xuanwu County was sparsely populated, and the relative Taiping Taoist disciples were also limited, so the biggest threat was the alien race who repeatedly violated the border.

Zu Ju raised his eyes for a while when Chun Yupei spoke, but his face was still grim, although he didn't express too clear meaning, but he still felt that he was more on his grandson's side.

Gongsun Zan and Zhang Nan each had different degrees of contemplation, and the thieves of more than 100 people alone would involve such a big hidden danger, which did sound a bit alarmist, but they had to be interested in Zu Zhao's multifaceted analysis. Taiping Road is a blessing or a curse, let's not say, just say that in recent years, natural disasters and man-made disasters, the people are not living, and hunger is everywhere, which is really dangerous. If we learn from the past, we can also know that there will be great chaos after the catastrophe, so we have to be cautious.

Gongsun Zhan had heard earlier that Zu Zhao studied under Lu Zhi, and he could be his fellow disciple and brother, even if Zu Zhao dropped out of school, Lu Zhi's protégé could still be on top. Since they are both members of the Shi clan and brothers of the same family, he still admires Zu Zhao very much in his heart.

After a while, Zhang Nan said quietly: "Actually, Lord Hao and Lord Gongsun are on the same road on this trip, but they came down to be entrusted by Lord Zhuojun to enter the city yesterday evening, and only met with the two of them early this morning, and came together to visit." Zhuo County is close to Jizhou, and Taiping Road originated in Julu, so Zhuo County was deeply influenced by it. Speaking of which, the lord of this county government is worried that Taiping Dao is demagogic, and he happened to hear about the accident in your place, and he sent a special person to find out more. Zu

Zhao had expected that Zhang Nan should have nothing to do with Gongsun Chan and Hao Yan, and he couldn't even sit at the same time as Gongsun Chan and Hao Yan in terms of official positions. Hearing Zhang Nan say this, he felt that the other party should be someone who knew about the situation of Taiping Dao.

At this time, Zu Ju made some additions to Zhang Nan's words, and said: "Zhao'er, Lord Wen of Zhuojun is a highly respected person, and your father made a special trip to visit him in the past, and he can be regarded as having a friendship with Lord Wen. In fact, Lord Wen is also very worried about the chaos among the people, and hopes that after learning about the Lingzhi case, he can submit a letter to Lord Jun to advise him in detail.

Zu Zhao knew that Zu Ju was reminding himself, he searched for his memory, and vaguely remembered that "this Lord Wen" was named Wen Shu, the word Taiqiao, when his father was in a relationship with him, Lord Wen had just taken office as Zongzheng, and later when his father died of illness, the Wen family also sent people to visit him. Wen Shu is indeed a famous man with a lot of character, if it weren't for the suspicion of the party back then, he would have been ranked in Jiuqing at this time. Of course, in addition to Wen Shu himself, his son Wen Hui was also a generation of famous ministers during the Three Kingdoms period.

Zhang Nan then said: "Don't hide it from you, although there is no major chaos among the Taiping Daoists in Zhuo County, there are many small troubles. Those Taoists who claim to be gurus use Fu Shui to cure diseases, and if they are cured, they are said to be effective, and if they are not healed, they are said to be insincere, attracting people's hearts and showing off everywhere. At first, it was good, and it was not for profit to see a doctor and save people, but now with the increasing number of believers, there are inevitably people who swagger and deceive people to take the opportunity to cheat and gather people to collect money. Lord Wen of this county is very worried about this.

Zu Zhao Zhengse said: "Lord Wen has this foresight, it is really gratifying. This time, if it was a simple thief, it would be fine, but when he led the righteous warriors of Honjo to fight with the thieves, he encountered a team of Hu cavalry with a neat and orderly formation and a strict formation. Even if he colluded with the thieves to cause an incident, it should be an ordinary herdsman, so he felt that there was something strange about this matter.

Gongsun Zhan and Hao Yan glanced at each other, and their faces were of varying degrees of concern.

Earlier, although Zhang Nan didn't look down on Zu Zhao very much, after all, the reputation of "Dragon City Flying General" made him feel very exaggerated, but this time he broke the thieves again, and the official documents all killed more than nine thieves. After listening to Zu Zhao's words, he raised his brows and asked solemnly, "Is this really the case?"

Zu Zhao did not change his color, and said: "My ancestor family has witnessed more than 100 children, and he will never dare to say the slightest big thing.

Zhang Nan nodded thoughtfully and didn't say anything more.

Gongsun Zhi sighed and said worriedly: "It's really an eventful time.

After a while, Zu Zhao said in a solemn tone: "I wonder if Lord Hao and Brother Wen Qiao have ever heard of the Hu people who are accustomed to using black arrows?" He had already told his grandfather about this earlier, but he didn't deliberately emphasize the physical appearance of the black arrow thief that day, so even if his grandfather was very puzzled, he didn't think too much about it.

At this time, Zu Zhao mentioned the black arrow thief again, Zu Ju's face couldn't help but become weird, and he stared at Zu Zhao with deep eyes.

Gongsun Zhan, Hao Yan, and Zhang Nan looked at each other, mostly puzzled.

After a long while, Hao Yan twisted his brows and opened his mouth and said, "The black arrow that the ancestor said refers to the feather arrow being blackened all over?"

Zu Zhao replied, "Exactly." Have you heard of it?

Hao Yan's face hesitated, and said: "A few years ago, when I was in Longyou, I seemed to have heard some legends about blackening the whole body of feather arrows, but it doesn't seem to exactly refer to the Hu people, what those local people said probably refers to the Xiliang people. More than 10 years ago, anyone who was excellent in archery would make some special marks on his arrows, some people used cinnabar to dye red arrow feathers, and some people used paint to engrave arrows. It was also a mistake to blacken the whole body of the feather arrow, but unfortunately I just listened to it casually at the time, and I didn't take it to heart, so I can't remember much. What, is this related to the Lingzhi County case?

Zu Zhao nodded, he briefly recounted the incident of the Black Arrow Qiang people that his grandfather and Wen County Lieutenant had encountered back then, and then told him how he had encountered the Black Arrow Thieves. After that, he said: "These Hu people are haunted, sometimes hiding in the Han realm, and there are not many clues at the moment, maybe you can start from this." When

they heard this, they were amazed.

Gongsun Zhan was puzzled and said, "General Zu was many years ago, how can he be the same Qiang thief at this time?"

Chun Yupei also said: "Maybe it's just a coincidence."

Zu Zhao smiled indifferently, leaned over and said, "I just know everything below."

Hao Yanzheng said: "In any case, the case of Lingzhi County is not trivial. We will tell General Zhang the truth.

Zhang Nan on the side also nodded solemnly, and said without slackening: "When I return to the county, I will truthfully report to the county government."

Zu Ju said angrily: "That is the case, then there is also Lord Lao." It's getting late now, so it's better to stay overnight in the village, and set up a banquet tonight to catch the wind for a few adults.

Everyone excused themselves and finally agreed.

[Wen Hui (178-223), the word Manji, a native of Qi County, Taiyuan (now Qi County, Shanxi), the minister of Cao Wei during the Three Kingdoms, served as the assassin of Yangzhou, and later moved to Liangzhou Assassin History. In the history book "Records of the Three Kingdoms", Wen Hui combined with Liu Fu, the assassin of Yangzhou in the late Han Dynasty, Sima Lang of Yanzhou, Liang Xi of Yanzhou, Jia Kui of Yuzhou, and Zhang Ji (formerly Yongzhou Assassin). These six assassins were rated by Chen Shou as a model of "Jingda Opportunity, Weien and En" in all state assassin histories at that time. 】
