Located in the middle of Jingzhou, Jiangling is an important grain-producing area in Jingzhou. It can enter Yizhou in the west and overlook Jiangdong in the east. It has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times.

After coming to Jiangling, it is considered that I have really come to the south. In recent years, the north has been greatly affected by natural disasters and wars, but there has been no major war in the south recently. Everyone's appearance is different, not to mention the population, clothing, and economy.

After arriving in Jiangling, Liu Bei didn't want to experience the prosperity of Jiangling, nor did he want to experience the local customs. After entering the city, he immediately asked every passerby if he had heard of Zhang Juzheng?When the people in the city saw Liu Bei's eager look, they felt that this man was a lunatic, and they ran away one after another.

It was Liu Bowen who stopped Liu Bei's eager behavior. Looking for someone like a headless fly is useless and has no direction. It is better to go to the restaurant to inquire. Liu Bei can also inquire according to Zhang Juzheng's characteristics.

After hearing Liu Bowen's suggestion, Liu Bei suddenly realized that in this era, restaurants can be said to be the place where information circulates the fastest, and restaurants are the best place to inquire about information. Liu Bei and others did not hesitate, and went directly to the largest restaurant in the city. go.

After arriving at the restaurant, Liu Bei directly threw out 3 taels of silver, and asked the waiter in the shop if there were any famous people in Jiangling City?Whether civil or military or otherwise.

The waiter in the shop saw so much money, and knew that Liu Bei and others were not ordinary people, so he didn't dare to hesitate, and counted the famous people in and around Jiangling City to Liu Bei and others.

"Masters, if you ask me, you will find the right person. Whether it's Jiangling or Xiangyang, as long as they are big people in Jingzhou, the small ones will know them. Let the small ones count them for you."

"If you want to say that this person with outstanding martial arts is Jiangling-Huang Zhong, Huang Hansheng, this person is unstoppable with a big sword, and what is even more frightening is his archery, which is simply the best in the world, unmatched. "

"Then there is the Jinfan bandit Gan Ning, who has been criss-crossing the Yangtze River for many years. The imperial court has repeatedly set out on expeditions, but he has also repeatedly failed."

"The rest of Wenpin, Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, Liu Pan and others are a little worse than these two, but the navy of Cai Mao and Zhang Yun are well-known far and wide."

"Cultural officials, Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue brothers should be the first to be promoted. These two helped Liuzhou Mu to manage Jingzhou in a smooth manner, and the people live and work in peace and contentment!"

Liu Bei listened carefully to the waiter's words, he was familiar with Huang Zhong and Gan Ning, they are all famous people in later generations, but now he wants to know where Zhang Juzheng is, compared with Zhang Juzheng, these people are nothing.

Unwillingly, Liu Bei asked the waiter, is there no civil servant who is more powerful than Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang?
The waiter shook his head when he heard this, and quickly said that Jingzhou's prosperous situation is due to these two people. How can anyone in this world be more powerful than them?
Although Liu Bei is still very unwilling, he can only accept this reality. According to the politics of Zhang Juzheng 109, if he must have been well-known here, how can he be compared by the little Kuai Yue and Kuai Liang? Where is it?

Liu Bei began to feel unhappy, and ran all the way from Hanoi to Jiangling, but he was in vain. Who would feel better about it?

Liu Bowen at the side noticed that Liu Bei seemed to be very concerned about Zhang Juzheng, and he seemed to be very powerful in government affairs based on his tone, so he pulled the waiter back and asked.

"Shop er, I just heard you say so many powerful people, this Jiangling city is so vast and rich, are there some people who behave differently from ordinary people, or speak differently from ordinary people?"

"Grandpa, why don't you have a good taste of our food and ask why that lunatic is doing? It's disturbing your elegance."

As soon as Liu Bei heard that there is really someone different from ordinary people, he quickly asked the waiter why this person is different from ordinary people, and where is he now?
"Gentlemen, I really admire you. I don't know what this person is called. I only know that people call him Crazy Zhang. I heard that he used to be an important official under Liu Zhoumu's command, but it seems that his words are too absurd. Master Liu thought he was crazy, so he was dismissed from office and sent home."

"After this person returned home, he didn't know what he was talking about all day long, and others couldn't understand him, so everyone ignored him and called him a lunatic."

As soon as Liu Bei heard the description of the waiter, he was sure that this person was Zhang Juzheng. Zhang Juzheng was a reformer in the Ming Dynasty. With such a high level of politics, how could his theory be acceptable to people like Liu Biao? If you tell people around you every day that you can drive and fly in the sky, then everyone will think you are crazy.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the truth. Liu Bei didn't even eat any food, and after asking the waiter in the shop where the lunatic Zhang was, he rushed there without stopping.

Ten miles to the northeast of Jiangling City, there is an old pond with a thatched hut next to it. This lunatic Zhang is here. Liu Bei is heading in this direction according to the description of the shop assistant. The urgency makes Liu Bowen and others feel that this is the case. Zhang Juzheng was a little curious.

After searching for about an hour, Liu Bei and others finally found this lunatic Zhang.

It's no wonder that people call him Crazy Zhang, even Liu Bei feels abnormal with this face, his thin white hair is blown out everywhere, his beard is in a mess, his eyes are tightly closed, and he is still muttering "Haomin" in a low voice. If there is land but no endowment, the poor will be tired if they lose money.” Something like that.

Liu Bei looked at the person in front of him, and was not sure if it was Zhang Juzheng. He yelled a few times, but there was no response, or Zhao Yun, who was at the side, stepped forward and felt his pulse. But he didn't see any wounds on his body, and he didn't see any disease. Maybe he was about to starve to death.

Hearing this conclusion, Liu Bei was speechless for a while. This existence comparable to the political ceiling is actually going to starve to death. Who would believe it?

There was nothing to eat around, so Liu Bei hurriedly directed Cheng Yaojin to fish a fish from the pond and stew the fish soup.

After a while, a pot of fish soup was ready, and as Cheng Yaojin fed it, Madman Zhang also gradually opened his eyes and gradually regained his luster.

But Crazy Zhang, who opened his eyes, didn't say thank you to Liu Bei and the others. Instead, he was still muttering: "The taxes and corvees are too heavy, what should the common people do?"

This drove Liu Bei and others crazy. I'm afraid they are really fools, right?Cheng Yaojin on the side was also mad with anger, and shouted into Crazy Zhang's ear: "Old man, are you Zhang Juzheng?"

This sentence startled Liu Bei, not to mention the lunatic Zhang who was right on his lips. It directly rolled the eyes of lunatic Zhang, but it also called lunatic Zhang out of his own world. He looked at Liu Bei and so on. Ren looked at the fish soup again, and finally understood.

It may be that I was possessed again, so obsessed that I forgot to eat, and I don’t know how long I was hungry. A burst of hunger came, and Madman Zhang stopped caring about Liu Bei and others, and just gobbled up the fish soup.

Everyone was waiting beside them, only to see Crazy Zhang finished the whole pot of fish soup in less than a quarter of an hour, then wiped his hands and said to everyone.

"My next Zhang Juzheng, thank you all for saving your life."
