Lingzhou is not better than the two states of Youliang, the armor is bright, the sword and the halberd are killed, the state of the world is just two words, Taiping, the officials and the old men are all battlefield generals, no need to work hard, since the idle nothing, then everyone will be harmonious and wealthy, since the iron rooster Li Gongde became a strategic envoy, and the ability of the paste is first-class, to whom is persuaded and not persuaded to divide, Lingzhou is more and more harmonious, except for the Zhong family in Longqing County, the rest of the large and small families are still very moist, Moreover, Zhong Chengxin, the eldest son of General Zhong Lao, is still the county guard of Longqing County, and Xu Beitong, the upstart of Beiliang, is only promoted by the little soldier Cao to join the army, and he is not a big man, and he continues to give Lord Zhong a hand, which shows that the Zhong family and the Xu family are far from tearing their faces.
However, there is a news that quickly circulates in the Lingzhou officialdom, the two subordinates of the general, Han Laoshan and Xu Yanbing, have become the deputy generals of Lingzhou, and His Royal Highness the Prince who made a big fuss about the capital and returned to Beiliang actually led the Lingzhou general, which makes people feel a little unbelievable.
Many retired veterans of the battlefield scolded why the prince didn't just sit on the chair of Beiliang Duhu, and why did he stretch out his hand to the Lingzhou officialdom, which is not very authentic.
Anyway, as soon as the New Year on the border of Youzhou passes, the triennial school martial arts parade is about to be held, and everyone knows that the general has begun to lay out the posthumous affairs of "Tuogu", according to the whispers of Lingzhou officialdom, the prince Xu Fengnian is not pleasing to Lingzhou, it is better to let Chu Lushan and Yuan Zuozong, the two righteous sons, help to go to the border as commanders, show off their might, or the hidden dragon in the abyss, everyone is out of sight and out of mind, how is it more comfortable than taking over the hot taro of General Lingzhou.
After a little envoy to the mansion, the lanterns are colorful, the door is wide open, welcome the distinguished guests, is already the second grade of the feudal officials of the Li Lord Li smiled from ear to ear, the general who suddenly came to the Li Mansion as a Bodhisattva offered, in advance to get the inside story of the military aircraft that His Royal Highness wants to become the general of Lingzhou, Li Gongde wore out his mouth, so that he finally let an old neighbor on the same street vacate a gorgeous mansion, temporarily hung a plaque, and became a Lingzhou General's Mansion, Lingzhou Prefecture has a beautiful Jinou Lake, and there are only a handful of houses that are qualified to lead water into the mansion, The old owner who occupied this feng shui treasure land was an old general of Zhong Hongwu, the commander of the Beiliang Cavalry, and later got closer to the young generals under Chen Zhibao, who were born under the command of Dian Xiongzhu.
At this time, Xu Fengnian, who became a four-grade military general, took a leisurely walk in the general's mansion, and had a scene in the Li Mansion before, and withdrew just by showing up, and he really couldn't bear the courtesy of the envoy, leaving Xu Xiaohe and Yuan Zuozong Han Laoshan as a foil, with Xu Yanbing, one of the nominal deputy generals in Lingzhou, walking through the corridor here, Wang Xiu's two junior brothers, Han Laoshan is also familiar with the art of war, and the martial idiot Xu Yanbing around him is not satisfactory, compared to Han Laoshan is indeed to take root in Lingzhou, step by step, Xu Yanbing is just used to deal with unexpected situations, Besides, Xu Yanbing himself is not here.
Before leaving the Li Mansion, Xu Xiao's eyes were playful, saying that there was a small accident waiting for him in this house, Xu Fengnian didn't have any expectations, and the gods and goddesses of the rivers and lakes who flew around had seen a lot, since he had slacked off the martial arts, needless to say, he could sell it cheaply by two catties in the Chao Pavilion, and he didn't care much about the magic weapons and the like, if he wanted to talk about women, the two side concubines in the future followed him to Beiliang, and Xu Fengnian didn't want to cause any love debts, but when Xu Fengnian suddenly saw the girl dressed in the women's costume of the Beimang grassland, he was still a little surprised and surprised, I didn't expect it to be the little girl who had a lot to do with the Beimang royal family, Huyan Guanyin, it was in order to save her tribe that she blocked the bison herd, and only then did she start that death-match hunt with the Tuoba Spring Falcon, the proud son of the heavens, who occupied the right time and place, and that time, Xu Fengnian almost gave his life to Duan'er under the thunder spear that Duan'er returned.
Xu Yanbing was very knowledgeable, turned to other places to enjoy the scenery, leaving Xu Fengnian alone with the woman, Xu Fengnian thought a little and knew in his heart, after he returned from Beimang, he talked about the dangerous experience in detail, during which he mentioned the Qiang flute of Huyan Guanyin, and it was estimated that Xu Xiao Shun Teng touched the melon and brought her from Beimang to Lingzhou.
Xu Fengnian sat in the pavilion with her and asked in grassland language: "Your brother Abaoji didn't come to Beiliang."
The girl with a ninety-five appearance was obviously not as sad and sentimental as the woman in the Central Plains, shook her head and smiled open-mindedly: "My brother is a young eagle on the grassland, and the grassland is his home.
The younger brother himself said that he must become the biggest Si Cao on the grassland, with the most vast and fat pastures, and in the future, he will take his benefactor to gallop on horseback, and grab the most beautiful woman, the strongest war horse, and the most mellow wine for his benefactor. ” Xu Fengnian remembered that tiger-headed child, who liked to roll in the sheepfold, and had the heroism of holding the lamb and throwing it casually, and said with a smile: "I am much more ambitious than me." ” The young woman who was between a young girl and a young woman looked curious, and couldn't help but smile softly and asked: "The benefactor has always said that he is a scholar in Gusai Prefecture before, how did he become the son of the Beiliang clan who is the sworn enemy of Beimang?"
Xu Fengnian leaned against the pillar, looked at the small lake in the house, and said with emotion: "It's probably the so-called unpredictable world." ” Huyan Guanyin said softly: "There is an old man who is more dignified than the grassland Da Sicha, and he instructed me to be my benefactor's maid in the future, and serve the benefactor's food, clothing, shelter and transportation. ” Xu Feng said in a young voice: "You don't have to listen to him in the future, our Beiliang women have always liked to wear swords and ride horses and draw bows, no one can restrain you, even if you think this is boring here, and you want to go back to the grassland to see your brother, I can also let people send you to the north." ” The delicate and incomparable woman's waist tied to the delicate Qiang flute with purple pipes was unexpectedly speechless.
Dead Shiyin suddenly appeared outside the pavilion, and said respectfully and respectfully: "Your Highness Qiqi, Xu Beiji of Longjing County and General Wang Zhi have come to visit. ” The Lingzhou General's Mansion is just a façade for the time being, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a golden jade outward, because this Lingzhou General himself is a fictitious connection, Xu Fengnian nodded with a smile: "In the future, the two of them don't need to report when they come here." ” There were clever servants in the house to lead the way for the two.
Xu Fengnian walked out of the pavilion to greet him, Wang Zhi's father Wang Shiqu, is not only the old department of Beiliang, but also the guard of the Sword Gate, has always been Li Yishan's dark chess placed in Kuimen for many years, the father and son finally played a great role in the battle of Tiemen Pass, Wang Zhi is indeed a strong general who lives up to expectations, even on the Han Mink Temple also dares to spare no effort to fight to the death, in order to intercept the human cat, the three thousand elite cavalry lost a thousand, after attaching to Beiliang, only half of the two thousand soldiers remained, and the performance in Longqing County last time was also very eye-catching, Xu Fengnian had an excellent impression of this person.
Xu Beitong quickly followed the customs, dressed up as a scribe in green shirts, more famous than Jiangnan celebrities, with a graceful demeanor, Wang Zhi escorted from the side, and a literature and a martial arts complement each other.
Huyan Guanyin stood in the pavilion timidly, looking out of place, most of the women were like this, it was just the icing on the cake of the great mountains and rivers.
Xu Fengnian hugged Xu Beitong's shoulders and smiled at Wang Zhi: "This time, I didn't let such a great hero as General Wang become the deputy general of Lingzhou, if there is any resentment in the stomach, even if you say it, the deputy general still can't give it." ” Wang Zhi didn't talk about stage fright and cowered, and grinned generously: "Your Highness, we are big and coarse, and we also know that there is no merit and no luck, and if we don't have military merits for the time being, we won't have any grievances, if we make great contributions in the future, don't say that the deputy general of the fourth grade, that is, the general of Lingzhou under His Royal Highness, also dare to fight, and there is no ambiguity."
Xu Fengnian nodded with a smile, stretched out his finger and pointed to Xu Yanbing, who quietly turned back to the pavilion, and introduced: "Freshly baked Lingzhou deputy general Xu Yanbing, Wang Zhi, you will deal with him more in the future, General Xu is one of the best martial arts masters in our Northern Liang, and it is much more useful than dangling in front of me, a Lingzhou general who has no real power." ” Wang Zhi's eyes suddenly lit up, these four words are much more weighty than the deputy general of Lingzhou, Yuan Zuozong is the third master in the Liyang army after Gu Jiantang and Chen Zhibao, if Xu Yanbing is one of the best martial artists, most of them are fierce generals on the same line as Yuan Baixiong, how dare Wang Zhi underestimate it, he immediately hugged his fist at this deputy general, Xu Yanbing just nodded lightly and returned the salute.
Xu Fengnian looked at Xu Beitong and asked with a smile: "Tangerine, I got along quite happily with Prince Zhong, but I heard that his beautiful concubines admired your talent very much, and took turns to recommend a pillow with you, and almost became jealous of the Lingzhou Oiran."
At this time, it was rumored that there was a son of a Beimang family named Xu Beitong in Beiliangdao, who sang every night, and was more carefree than a fairy. ” Xu Beitong smiled lightly: "There is more than the bottom, and it is far less than the top, with His Royal Highness Zhuyu in front, what kind of feat is this romantic affair." ” Wang Zhi secretly said to himself, it is rumored that Xu Beitong, who is very unscrupulous as an official, has a good relationship with His Royal Highness the Prince, and he has a very good relationship, and it seems that what he said is true.
If I were someone else, I would have been scared and sweating.
Wang Zhi didn't dare to regard this prince of Beiliang who dared to personally intercept and kill the prince of the Western Regions holding the bottle, as some kind of gentleman.
Ordinary sons, for Zhong Hongwu, a meritorious veteran who has worked with his father, it is too late to look at words and look at every time to please him.
Xu Fengnian and Xu Beitong sat in the pavilion, Wang Zhi naturally followed Xu Yanbing to guard outside the pavilion, Xu Fengnian glanced at Wang Zhi's burly back, retracted his gaze, and said with a smile: "This time, hundreds of people, including the Lu family and Shangyin School Palace in Qingzhou, are all waiting to be fed, and the officialdom in Lingzhou is bloated and has the most fat.
Chen Xiliang is busy rectifying salt and iron, or you just take the opportunity to streamline the official position of military generals, get rid of a large number of idle miscellaneous generals, let's also learn from Beimang, so that the captain will be more worthy of the name in the future. ” Xu Beitong was silent, and the shelf was not small.
Wang Zhi, who pricked up his ears, was a little worried, the companion is like a tiger, and the emperor is far away in the north Liangtian, otherwise the general will not be called the second emperor by the imperial court in private, His Royal Highness the prince is actually no different from the prince of a country, Wang Zhi don't look at it in front of Xu Fengnian, it is also thick and fine, carefully grasp the scale of those seemingly rough and simple generals, who is not a person who is as careful as a hair in the official history.
If you want to be on the side of the monarch, you will not be blessed, your descendants will be in the shadow, and your knowledge will be deep, and it is almost a bottomless pit.
Previously, Wang Zhi and Xu Beitong drank, when His Royal Highness the Prince did not kneel to the Son of Heaven in Tai'an City, Xu Beitong was drunk and drunk, drunk happily, full of Jinglun to reveal the tip of the iceberg, talking about the matter of seeking for rice, just dividing the categories of officials and courtiers, Xu Beitong gave as many as 19 kinds of lonely ministers, ministers, capable ministers, toad officials, cat officials, and corpse officials, which are much more cumbersome than the realm of Wufu Jipin, so that Wang Zhi was both dumbfounded and benefited a lot, thinking that this Xu Gongzi really cultivated into an immortal in the public gate, so that Wang Zhi, who had a very high vision, also admired the five bodies.
Xu Fengnian continued to ask: "There is a custom in the Beiliang officialdom to reward mink hats at the end of the year, and during the period from the end of winter to the beginning of spring, hundreds of new mink hats of all sizes in Lingzhou are sent out from your Xu Beitong, how?"
Xu Beitong asked rhetorically: "You don't care about the general of Lingzhou, the master can not ask a word."
Xu Fengnian nodded and said: "Otherwise, why am I not determined to be this general, I want to help you block the raging criticism, I promise you, no matter what you say or who you are, everything will stop when you come to me, you don't have to look or listen." ” Xu Beitong said calmly: "The history of the assassination of the chief official of Lingzhou is still being held by Master Li, and His Royal Highness can give me this hat first."
Wang Zhi was amazed in his heart, Xu Beitong and Xu Dagongzi are really fierce enough, they want the official hat of a fourth-grade official with one mouth, and they have to be so righteous and strong, and they must not let those Liyang officials who have been stuck on this threshold all their lives be half angry.
Huyan Guanyin, who had learned some Liyang language in this mansion, listened to it word for word, probably knowing the meaning of this conversation, she opened her mouth slightly, looked at the gray-haired man, and her eyes were a little confused.
Xu Fengnian stood up and said with a smile: "I'll take it for you." ”:
