Chapter 21 In the year of Jiazi, all is well under heaven!
(I rushed to finish this right after dinner, please show your support!)
Mi Zhu shook his head and walked out of the Chen residence, but judging from his expression, it seemed that the difficult matter had been resolved.
Chen Deng has already decided to lend the Mi family 500 shi of rice. The Mi family must repay the full amount within six months and provide an additional 20% compensation. If the repayment exceeds six months, and is between six months and one year, an additional 30% compensation will be required.
As a good friend of Mi Zhu, Chen Deng had already taken good care of this person whom he had always admired, but when it came to Jiang Zhe, Chen Deng showed no mercy whatsoever.
Not to mention that Mi Zhu only wanted to see Jiang Zhe again, Chen Deng strongly objected, thinking, "If I see you, what if my somewhat 'out-of-the-box' teacher (a phrase I learned from Jiang Zhe) abandons me and passes on all his knowledge to you? What will I do then?"
Despite Ren Mizhu's earnest persuasion, Chen Deng only uttered two words: "No discussion!"
"This Chen Yuanlong..." Mi Zhu shook his head and walked out of the Chen family gate, feeling even more curious about Jiang Zhe. To be able to turn the usually arrogant Chen Yuanlong into this state, this Jiang Zhe is no ordinary person.
Suddenly, he remembered a detail.
That is, when we were discussing compensation just now, Chen Yuanlong actually said the amount right away, and after I calculated it, I found that the amount I got was exactly the same as what he said.
Mi Zhu frowned, thinking carefully. Right, he seemed to have a gratified and smug look on his face just now.
Needless to say, Yuan Long was always smug; as for his relief... well, it meant he hadn't actually possessed this ability before...
teacher……
A certain non-…
"This Chen Yuanlong!" Mi Zhu was both amused and exasperated. He finally understood why Chen Yuanlong's expression had changed so drastically when he mentioned wanting to see Jiang Zhe. Was he afraid that he would steal away Jiang Zhe's teacher?
"Sigh..." Mi Zhu turned and glanced at the Chen family's massive mansion, feeling a pang of sadness. He murmured, "Gongliang, what use are a few accountants? I'd rather have Jiang Zhe, Jiang Shouyi!"
A cool breeze disrupted his thoughts, and Mi Zhu's face immediately turned ashamed. He thought to himself, "Yuan Long has treated me with sincerity. How can I betray him? I must not speak of what I just thought again."
Chen Deng sat in the guest room, holding a teacup, feeling somewhat helpless. "Zizhong is usually so refined, but today he resorted to threats. It's really..."
When he saw that she didn't agree, he actually said he wanted to see his teacher and asked her to take this time to think it over. Should she let him see his teacher?
If he had seen him, then the master's disciples would have been surnamed Mi instead of Chen! Luckily, I acted decisively and gave him the five hundred shi (a unit of dry measure) to make him leave quickly.
Wait a minute, it seems the teacher is quite interested in Brother Zizhong... Chen Deng thought for a moment, then felt a chill run down his spine. He dared not think any further and quickly stood up to prepare to go to the accounting room.
"Young...Young Master..."
"Huh?" Chen Deng frowned, looking at Sun Mao who was rushing over. "Xuanyang, what's going on?"
"No...something terrible has happened!" Sun Mao gasped for breath, looking at Chen Deng with distress. "A major disaster has occurred!"
"What is it?"
"They've...they've rebelled!"
"Absurd!" Chen Deng glanced at him, thinking to himself, "You've been following the teacher for a few days, how come you speak like the teacher?"
"That...that Zhang Jiao...rebelled!"
"Zhang Jiao?" Chen Deng was taken aback.
"Yes, the news has spread!" Sun Mao seemed to have recovered somewhat, panting as he said, "A man named Tang Zhou reported to the court that Zhang Jiao was plotting a rebellion. When Zhang Jiao realized his plot had been exposed, he simply rebelled!" He thought of him and added, "It seems that a man named Ma Yuanyi was captured by the General. I heard he was beheaded and his body disposed of. Tsk tsk..."
"So fast?" Chen Deng muttered, then gave the order, "Summon all the Chen family members immediately. Notify those who are away as soon as possible and have them all come to Xuzhou. Also, speed up the purchase of rice and grain. Don't worry about copper coins."
"No one will sell grain anymore..." Sun Mao muttered.
"Nonsense, I know that too!" Chen Deng felt utterly helpless. He had just agreed to lend the Mi family five hundred shi of grain, and Zhang Jiao had rebelled. In his teacher's words, "Damn it, are you kidding me?"
"I'll try my best!" Chen Deng nodded and walked out, not even bothering to go to the accounting office. He wanted to tell his father about this.
"Zhang Jiao rebelled?" Jiang Zhe stared at Xiu'er, seemingly unable to believe it. The Yellow Turban Rebellion started in the first year of Zhongping, and it's only the sixth year of Guanghe now!
"Yes!" Xiu'er looked at Jiang Zhe strangely, "That's what the neighbors are saying. They even said that a guy named Ma Yuanyi has been arrested and executed..."
"This...this..." Jiang Zhe panicked. Had history changed?
"By the way, my lord, the official just informed us that His Majesty is changing the reign title. After the New Year (which is almost time to celebrate), it will only be called the Zhongping Year..."
"..." Jiang Zhe looked at Xiu'er speechlessly. You should have said so earlier! You startled me. Well, so that means Zhang Jiao's uprising was only brought forward by a year. Fortunately, history hasn't changed too much.
But what Jiang Zhe couldn't understand was why Zhang Jiao would rebel so early when everything was fine.
Just as Jiang Zhe was puzzled, Zhang Jiao, who had raised an army overnight upon hearing that his plot had been exposed, was giving his final pep talk: "The Azure Heaven is dead! The Yellow Heaven shall rise! The year is Jiazi! Great fortune for the world!"
"The Azure Heaven is dead! The Yellow Heaven shall rise! The year is Jiazi! Great fortune awaits the world!"
"The Azure Heaven is dead! The Yellow Heaven shall rise! The year is Jiazi! Great fortune awaits the world!"
"The Azure Heaven is dead! The Yellow Heaven shall rise! The year is Jiazi! Great fortune awaits the world!"
One can imagine how magnificent the scene would be if tens of thousands of people cheered together. Jiang Zhe must have felt some regret for not being able to see it.
"Brother, we have raised an army in rebellion, and we deserve a title!" said Zhang Jiao's younger brother, Zhang Bao.
"Second brother is right. In my opinion, eldest brother should be the Heavenly Emperor, and second brother and I should be the Earthly Emperor and the Human Emperor!" Third brother Zhang Liang also chimed in.
"No, no!" Zhang Jiao said, frowning. "We are acting on behalf of Heaven in a rebellion; how can we call ourselves emperors? This is inappropriate!"
"So what do you suggest, brother?" Zhang Bao asked anxiously, looking at the tens of thousands of expectant soldiers.
Zhang Jiao pondered for a moment, then stepped forward and shouted, "From this day forward, I, Zhang Jiao, am the Heavenly General, to restore order to the world, to punish evil on behalf of Heaven, and to overthrow the tyrannical Han! If I harbor any selfish motives, Heaven and Earth will not tolerate it!"
"The Heavenly General? Then I shall be the Earthly General!" Zhang Bao stepped forward and shouted after Zhang Jiao, "From this day forward, I, Zhang Bao, shall be the Earthly General, to redress the injustices of the world, to eliminate evil on behalf of Heaven, and to overthrow the tyrannical Han! If I harbor any selfish motives, Heaven and Earth shall not tolerate it!"
Then came Zhang Liang: "From this day forward, I, Zhang Liang, am the General Who Restores the Order of the People, to redress the injustices of the world, to eliminate evil on behalf of Heaven, and to overthrow the tyrannical Han. If I harbor any selfish motives, Heaven and Earth will not tolerate it!"
"Follow the will of Heaven and act righteously, and you will enjoy peace and prosperity!"
"Follow the will of Heaven and act righteously, and you will enjoy peace and prosperity!"
"Follow the will of Heaven and act righteously, and you will enjoy peace and prosperity!"
Tens of thousands of people cheered in unison.
Thus, a famous peasant uprising in history unfolded in a grand manner. In a short time, people from all directions flocked to the uprising, and within just a few days, the number of rebels reached hundreds of thousands. The rebels were so powerful that the government troops were routed at the mere sight of them.
