19. Because, Tao
readx; Guangzong, the base camp of the Yellow Turban Army, was personally guarded by Zhang Jiao, the leader of the Yellow Turban Army, with 150,000 troops. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 But I saw that above the head of Guangzong City, the flags were fluttering, and the patrolling Yellow Turban soldiers were in an orderly manner, which was completely different from the Yellow Turban Army in other places.
Inside the city, the county guard.
Now this has become Zhang Jiao's residence, and the Yellow Turban Lux can be seen everywhere in the entire county guard, as the heart of the Yellow Turban Army, it is heavily guarded.
"Squeak!"
The wooden door of a room in the mansion was pushed open, and a middle-aged man in a yellow gossip robe walked in, and this person was the great sage and mentor Zhang Jiao.
In the inner hall, a beautiful girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old was painting, but she saw that the painting was half completed, and the person in the painting was a man, who was dressed in a completely different costume from this era, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he looked frivolous.
Zhang Jiao's gaze fell on the half-finished painting and sighed softly.
"Mei Niang......" Zhang Jiao shouted.
Zhang Meiniang, who was immersed in the painting, found that her father had entered the room at some point, and quickly stood up, and then seemed to remember something, and panicked to use silk cloth to cover up the unfinished painting.
"There is no need to hide, for the Father has seen." Zhang Jiao's expression was a little helpless, but more of guilt and pity.
"Dad, I'm ......" Zhang Meiniang lowered her head and fiddled with the corners of her clothes with both hands.
That night, he was suddenly awakened by his father, his father's face was pale, and there were blood stains on the corners of his mouth, and his father told him that he needed to take him away immediately if he was in danger, and before she could ask questions, he was taken away by his father from the grass house where he had lived for more than ten years.
She wanted to ask her father why he didn't bring Yichen's brother, but his father didn't have time to take care of him at all, and it wasn't until the second day, when he didn't know how far away from the grass house, did his father stop.
"Daddy, where's Brother Yichen?"
"He is a member of the Han Court, and he is here to kill his father."
"Han Ting? Daddy, do you mean that Brother Yichen is the imperial court official you told me before? ”
"Yes."
"But why did the court kill Daddy?"
The father did not answer because he was injured and needed pranayama. Later, she finally knew that her father was a great figure, the court was incompetent, the people of the world were not happy, and her father held high the banner of righteousness, wanting to overthrow the court and let the people of the world live a good life.
And Yichen's brother is a member of the imperial court, and he was sent by the imperial court to kill his father, and he deliberately approached him.
But...... But why do you know that he wants to harm himself and kill his father, but he still thinks of him often and can't help but want to see him?
has lived in the grass house for so many years, but the days after Yichen's brother came were the happiest times......
"Mei Niang, you go and clean up your things." Zhang Jiao said slowly, looking a little tired.
"Huh?" Zhang Meiniang looked at Zhang Jiao puzzled.
Zhang Jiao smiled and said, "We're leaving here." ”
"Why do you want to leave all of a sudden? Be...... Is the war not going well? Although Zhang Meiniang never cared about the war, she also knew that the imperial court was fighting against the Yellow Turban Army led by her father.
Zhang Jiao said: "Yes, so we have to evacuate here." ”
Looking at her father, Zhang Meiniang's mind suddenly crossed the figure, hesitated, and said, "Daddy, why don't you make peace with the court, let's not fight, okay?" ”
The so-called knowing son Mo Ruo's father, Zhang Jiao knew that Zhang Meiniang thought that as long as she made peace with the imperial court, she would have the opportunity to see the young man named Lin Yichen again.
I saw him nod and said, "Okay, my father is preparing to make peace with the court." ”
"Really? That's great! Zhang Meiniang's face was full of joy.
Looking at her, Zhang Jiao also smiled, but he was a little bitter, but he covered it up well, Zhang Meiniang didn't notice it, and only heard him say: "Meiniang, after you pack up your things, leave with Chu Yan first." ”
"Huh? Daddy, won't you come with me? Zhang Meiniang wondered.
Zhang Jiao said with a smile: "Fool, for your father, you want to make peace with the court, so you go with Chu Yan first, and then go to meet you after your father talks with the court." ”
Zhang Meiniang nodded as if she didn't understand, Zhang Jiao suddenly stepped forward, hugged her into his arms, and said softly: "Meiniang, in the days when my father is away, I must listen to Chu Yan's words, do you know?" ”
As if sensing that today's father was different from usual, Zhang Meiniang said: "Daddy, are you lying to me?" ”
Zhang Jiao hurriedly said, "How come? When did the father cheat on the girl? ”
"But ......"
Zhang Jiao let go of her and said, "Mei Niang, be obedient, Daddy will definitely negotiate with the court soon, and then go to you." ”
Saying that, he no longer gave Zhang Meiniang a chance, turned around and walked out, and said as he walked: "Meiniang, you go and pack your things, I'll call you later." ”
After Zhang Jiao left, he ordered someone to call Chu Yan.
Chu Yan is a rising star in the Yellow Turban Army, very young, only twenty-five years old has become a general of the First Army among Zhang Jiao's direct subordinates, commanding 30,000 horses.
"Subordinates meet General Tiangong!" As soon as Chu Yan saw Zhang Jiao, she immediately bowed down.
Zhang Jiao asked him to get up, and then said: "Chu Yan, you have been with our master for a while, you are very clever, you are really the best among the generals, and you have done many miraculous feats recently, this master is very relieved. ”
Chu Yan said respectfully: "General Tiangong praises falsely, and his subordinates dare not be ashamed. ”
Zhang Jiao said with a smile: "You don't have to be so restrained, today the master called you to accept you as a righteous son, I don't know if you are willing?" ”
Chu Yan was taken aback, and looked at Zhang Jiao for a long time but couldn't react.
It wasn't until Zhang Jiao coughed lightly that he knelt down in a panic, and said honestly: "My subordinates are rude, and I hope that General Tiangong will be guilty." ”
"What sin are you guilty of? Hurry up. Zhang Jiao said warmly, and after the latter got up, he said again: "The master asks you again, are you willing to become the teacher's son?" ”
Chu Yan knelt down again and said, "It is really a blessing for my subordinates to be favored by General Tiangong, and my subordinates are grateful!" ”
Zhang Jiao smiled and said, "So, you agreed?" ”
"Yes!"
"Hurry up." Zhang Jiaodao.
Chu Yan stood up and said, "Thank you, General Tiangong." ”
Zhang Jiao reprimanded softly: "Are you still called General Weifu?" ”
Chu Yan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "The child knows that he is wrong." ”
"Hahaha......" Zhang Jiao was overjoyed, and after laughing, he said: "Yan'er, in the future, you will be your father's surname Zhang Kehao?" ”
"Thank you father-in-law for giving me my surname." Chu Yan said loudly.
Zhang Jiao nodded slightly, then took out a cloth bag from his arms and beckoned to Zhang Yan (Chu Yan), who immediately stepped forward.
"Yan'er, this thing is the immortal law "Taiping Yaoshu" passed on to the father by the father's teacher, although this is only a copy, but there are many of the father's cultivation experiences, and now I will give it to you, and I hope you can practice diligently." As he spoke, Zhang Jiao handed the cloth bag to Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan took the cloth bag in a daze, and the surprises in a row made him a little at a loss at this time.
But Zhang Jiao continued: "Yan'er, my father wants you to promise two things, okay?" ”
Zhang Yan came back to her senses, knelt down, and said sincerely: "Please show your father-in-law." ”
"First, my father wants you to leave Guangzong with Mei Niang immediately, away from the battlefield, and protect her from now on, can you do it?" Zhang Jiao looked at Zhang Yan with burning eyes.
Attracting Zhang Jiao's gaze, although Zhang Yan wanted to ask why he suddenly asked him to leave with Mei Niang, he didn't dare to speak, but said: "The child swears here, as long as there is a breath in this life, he will swear to protect the saint to the death." ”
Zhang Jiao nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yan'er, since you are my righteous son now, Mei Niang is naturally your sister, and there is no need to call her a saint anymore." ”
"Yes."
Zhang Jiao continued: "Second, my father wants you to promise not to rely on the "Taiping Technique" to do evil in this life, let alone follow your father's example and make the world miserable! ”
This time, he didn't even ask, and said to Zhang Yan in an unquestioning tone.
Zhang Yan was stunned, Zhang Jiao asked him not to do evil, he could still understand, but later said that he could not follow him and make the world miserable, but he couldn't understand it anyway.
"Father-in-law, you hold high the banner of righteousness, ask for your life for the people of the world, and overthrow the Han Court, how can you say that you have made the lives of the world miserable?" Zhang Yan was a little excited, he joined the Yellow Turban Army because of this belief, and now Zhang Jiao is undoubtedly destroying his belief when he says this.
Zhang Jiao raised his head slightly, his eyes gradually became deeper, and after a long time, he sighed: "If there is chaos today, and hundreds of people are displaced, isn't it all because of his father?" Isn't this just a misery for all living beings in the world? ”
Zhang Yan said: "Father-in-law, with all due respect, the so-called success will be a success, not to mention that you are the father of the world, although many people are displaced, but you are for the prosperity of the future." ”
Zhang Jiao said with a smile: "A good one will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither!" Then he suddenly changed color, looked at Zhang Yan, and said in a deep voice: "Yan'er, my father wants you to remember that all wars are just for the ambitions of a few people, and the so-called righteousness and the so-called welfare for the world are just beautiful excuses!" ”
"But ......"
Zhang Jiao categorically interrupted Zhang Yan's words and continued: "Yan'er, my father knows very well that you have great ambitions, but this ambition should never be for Huang Tian. You must remember that you must not imitate your father! ”
After Zhang Yan was silent for a long time, she finally nodded and said, "Remember, child!" ”
"Excellent! The Father will give you 5,000 Yellow Turban Warriors, and then you will take these people and leave with the Charmer, and all matters will be up to you in the future. ”
Zhang Yan was shocked and said, "Father-in-law, five thousand yellow turban wrestlers?" No, absolutely not! ”
He knew very well that Zhang Jiao's command was only 8,000 Yellow Turban wrestlers, and now he gave him 5,000 at once, and there were only 3,000 left around Zhang Jiao.
"This is a military order!" Zhang Jiao said in a deep voice.
Zhang Yan was stunned, and finally could only say helplessly: "Yes!" ”
Looking at Zhang Yan, Zhang Jiao sighed and said, "Yan'er, you are a smart person, I believe that you will gradually understand as a father." ”
Zhang Yan gritted her teeth and said, "Father-in-law, Mei Niang is still young!" ”
Zhang Jiao smiled, he knew that Zhang Yan had more or less understood, only to see him smile faintly, and said: "Some things can only be ended by being a father, and this is that the bell must be tied to the bell." ”
"But father-in-law, the child still doesn't understand, in this case, why do you ......" Tears faintly appeared in Zhang Yan's eyes.
Zhang Jiao stood up, patted him on the shoulder with relief, and said, "Because, Dao!" ”
Zhang Yan raised her eyes in confusion, and Zhang Jiao said with a smile: "Idiot, you will understand eventually, let's go!" Let's go to Mei Niang, she should be cleaned up. ”
As he spoke, he strode out, and Zhang Yan hesitated for a while before following.
