"Murder! Kill! ”

"Uncle Cousin, Uncle Cousin, I'm Zhang An!"

"Ahh Help me! Help me! ”

Zhang Zhi rushed into Zhang De's mansion like a mad tiger and went directly to the backyard.

Along the way, whether it was the hall or the main house, all the things were picked up cleanly, waiting to be turned into silver and returned to Zhang Ning's family, several family members rushed out to stop it, but they were all put down by the strong men brought by Zhang Zhi one by one.

Zhang De has four children, three sons and a daughter, only one of the three sons is a son-in-law who is an official in other places, and the other two are concubines. A daughter is twelve years old and has not yet reached the age of marriage, so it will not be too good in the future.

The eldest son's grandson and wife did not go with him to the post, but were hiding in the room and shivering. The eldest son's wife died and didn't understand why her mother-in-law Lu would kill Cui, Lu was very gentle on weekdays, and he didn't even say a word to her.

When the accident first happened, there were rumors in the family that Cui Lao Taijun had an affair with her father-in-law, and her mother-in-law found out and killed her in a fit of rage. But she knew that this was also nonsense, her father-in-law never went to the backyard when Mrs. Cui came, and sometimes he was not at home directly.

The words are terrifying, and the eldest daughter-in-law knew the meaning of this sentence for the first time.

Zhang Zhi searched out Zhang De's children and grandsons one by one, asked the family to tie them up with ropes, dragged them into a string and dragged them out of the house. Along the way, the family and subordinates all dared to be angry but did not dare to speak, many of them were Zhang Taishi's people, because they were proficient in martial arts, they could not be exposed at this time, and they could only let Zhang Zhi mess around.

Zhang Zhi hasn't slept for many days, people are the most irritable when they are tired, when he is angry, he doesn't think about whether he will be impeached in the future and how the outside world will spread him, he is only bent on making his cousin regret it, and let these juniors kowtow to apologize, with the movements of his hands are not gentle at all, Zhang De's two grandchildren are already ghosts crying wolves.

When Zhang Ning rode a horse and galloped to Zhang De's mansion, what he saw was Zhang Zhi pulling a long line of people to the door while scolding and drinking.

"Nonsense! Let go of the nephews and grandchildren! ”

"Brother! I'm going to pull them to confess my mistake to my mother! ”

"I told you to let them go!" Zhang Ning stood at the gate, pointing at the people around him, frowning and shouting.

"Since ancient times, fathers have paid their debts, and their fathers are not in the capital......"

"How to compensate for the law of the imperial court, the holy judgment under His Majesty has been made, and the disaster will not affect the children, are you resisting the decree?"

"You...... Brother, you actually speak for these people! ”

"Go back, don't be embarrassed here." Zhang Ning is full of filial piety, and the winter clothes made of linen can't resist the cold wind at all, and when the wind blows in winter, the whole person is shivering, and I don't know if it's cold or angry.

Zhang Zhi has been afraid of this brother since he was a child, Zhang Ning shouted, Zhang Zhi had to unwillingly glare at the people behind him, dropped the rope and followed Zhang Ning on the horse.

Zhang Zhi's generals all breathed a sigh of relief.

If it is a trouble, their master is excusable, and then it is time for them to be scapegoats.

It is naturally best to end in this way of thunder and rain, both out of breath and nothing wrong.

Zhang Ning and Zhang Zhi rode back to their homes together, without saying a word on the way.

When he learned that Zhang Zhi was his biological brother, and Zhang Jing was adopted instead, Zhang Ning only felt that this younger brother was the one who suffered the most in the family.

As soon as he was born, he lost the status of a son-in-law, had no inheritance rights, couldn't marry a good woman, and obviously his biological mother was in front of him, but he wanted to call an unrelated woman an aunt.

No wonder as soon as my father died, the aunt soon "died of depression", I am afraid that my grandfather was worried that the things of the year would eventually leak out, so he poisoned my aunt, right?

Zhang Zhi followed his brother back to the house, Zhang Ning arranged for his subordinates to settle several generals, and then took his younger brother to the mourning hall to kowtow to his mother.

Zhang Zhi was raised by Cui's since he was a child, he had a pox when he was a child, Cui's clothes kept him for three nights, and he personally sorted out the acne for him, and he was not afraid of contracting a vicious disease. Since then, he has regarded her as his biological mother, and even his aunt has to be far behind.

Zhang Zhi insisted on asking his family to open the coffin and see his mother-in-law's last face. Zhang Ning was worried that his younger brother would have a violent temper, and when he saw his mother's wounds, he couldn't help but turn around and kill his cousin's family without leaving a piece of armor, so he tried his best to stop it.

Zhang Zhizheng can't fight for his brother, the old lady Zhang Ningdao has been gone for more than ten days, and the appearance is definitely not very good-looking at this time, and there is an anti-corrosion and anti-odor filler in the coffin, and the coffin is bound to be damaged.

So Zhang Zhi could only lie on his mother's coffin and cry hoarsely, he was also in his thirties, crying like a child at this time, and he couldn't see any falsehood at all.

Many of the people around were amazed. You must know that although Lu Dao's own master is also grief-stricken, it is by no means as devastating as Zhang Zhi's crying, but his own master has lived a few days as if he has lost his soul, which is also infinitely embarrassing.

After crying for a while, Zhang Zhi finally lost his strength and fainted directly in the mourning hall.

Zhang Ning and the others were scared half to death, and only after finding out that they had fainted before they calmed down, they hurriedly carried him to the house where he used to live, but fortunately, he had already known at home that this old man was coming back to mourn, and the yard where he lived when he was young had already been tidied up, and he could live as soon as he came back.

On the second day, Zhang Zhi woke up in the room where he slept when he was young, and for a moment he thought that he had returned to the past, as if he had gone back in time.

It was only a moment before the sourness in his whole body told him that he had not returned to his childhood, he had only returned to the house where he had lived as a child.

He got up, washed up under the service of the people in the house, and got up to look for his eldest brother.

Zhang Ning was in the study at this time. Although he has already issued an edict, he is a book after all, and there is still countless work to be done before he leaves office, and the handover must be done well.

Zhang Zhi found a chair outside and sat down, waiting for Zhang Ning to come to see him after finishing his business.

Zhang Zhi ran back thousands of miles all the way, and when he arrived in Tongzhou, he was afraid that his wife and daughter were still bumpy in Liangzhou. As soon as I relaxed at this time, I really felt pain everywhere in my body, and I didn't want to get up as soon as I sat down in the chair.

In the unbearable pain, he remembered his nephew who had rushed thousands of miles to Liangzhou to ask for help. At that time, Li Rui arrived in the hall of their Governor's Mansion, and he was lying on a chair with his limbs spread out, unable to get up.

He is in his thirties this year, and he is far from being able to compare himself with himself who could march for days and nights.

It's just that Li Rui still rescued Li Mao's old husband after all, but his mother-in-law will never come back.

Zhang Ning was busy for an hour before sending away many subordinate officials. As soon as he went out, he was stunned when he saw his younger brother slumped in a chair without any image.

Zhang Ning stared at his younger brother, and for the first time found that he actually looked a little similar to his mother.

Especially the eyebrows and mouth shape.

Why didn't he find out?

His brother has never had a beard for the sake of war.

"Brother, how are you?"

"Alright, you come in with me."

When he arrived at the study, Zhang Ning was a little silent, not knowing how to tell him the truth of the facts.

"I left the clan, and I was divided from my father's house, so you are no longer in the clan now......"

As soon as his mother's first seven years passed, he removed his own house from the clan. He has too many handles of the Zhang family in his hands, and Zhang De told him a lot of □□ before carrying the black cauldron, because none of the elders of the Zhang clan dared to stop him, and even half of the sacrificial fields that his mother had purchased back then were obediently returned.

"If you leave, you leave, anyway, I haven't touched half of it." Zhang Zhi waved his hand indifferently. He worked hard in the army, relying on the face of General Zhao and Li Laoguogong, and the army did not recognize the Zhang family at all. The Zhang family also did not recognize his status as a concubine, and he was not even qualified to enter the family temple to worship.

"It's good to leave, and when I think of my mother's spirit card, I want to be with the hall in the future...... Zhang De and his wife are put together, and I can't sleep and eat. Now it is just right that we offer our own incense to our parents, and we don't worry about it among the people! ”

As soon as he thought of the reason why his grandmother would die, Zhang Zhi was furious.

"It's just a lack of money, why don't you come to me? For a little silver, I actually got it to this point! Zhang Zhi's teeth chattered, "When did the Zhang family get so poor that they needed to come to the door to force debts?" ”

His wife, Dai's mother's family, is a tycoon in the northwest, selling silk and horses, and doing a grain business. When the Dai family got married, the Dai family knew that they had no identity in the family, and they had married hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, and they had countless assets.

"It's not about the money." Zhang Ning thought for a while and changed his words: "It's not just about money. ”

"What else could be the reason! Could it be that my cousin was tricked by someone! ”

"It's a long story, and it's shocking. But the reason in the heart also has something to do with you, so I have to say......" Zhang Ning sighed, "Actually, ......"

“…… You are my real brother. ”

Zhang Ning ignored Zhang Zhi's expression that he had already stood up in shock, and began to talk to himself about the facts he had learned from Zhang De and Li Mao. Some of the things he inferred were his own, and he sandwiched them in.

Unlike Li Mao, Zhang Ning wants to explain one thing clearly, often concisely and to the point, and even analyzes the internal reasons clearly. Among them, the sinister conspiracy, the danger of the Zhang family's situation, and the sacrifice of the Zhang family all made Zhang Zhi tremble, and he couldn't wait to pick up his grandfather and ask again.

Zhang Ning will push everything out of the plate, precisely because he is sure that his younger brother and he have the same idea.

At this point in their lives, they have struggled for almost half their lives, who would want to mix this kind of?!

They don't know what the descendants of the Yin Dynasty are, and the sins that the previous generations were involved in should now be understood.

Sure enough, as soon as Zhang Zhi heard all the ins and outs, he immediately sneered a few times.

"Dare to calculate on our family, even if my grandfather is confused, this hatred is not shared. If they do make trouble, see if I don't lead an army to destroy them! ”

When people are angry to the extreme, they don't even bother to say cruel words.

Let's see the real trick on the battlefield when the time comes.

Hearing that his brother-in-law had returned to Beijing, Li Rui hurriedly came to visit him when he was on vacation.

Although Zhang Ning and Zhang Zhi knew that Zhang Jing was not their biological sister, the three of them grew up together since childhood, whether Zhang Jing was out of guilt or to hide her true identity, she was a sister who made people's hearts warm, but their feelings were real.

Therefore, for this nephew, the two brothers of the Zhang family have mixed feelings in their hearts, and they still have the upper hand emotionally after the most lucrative time, and there is no mustard at all.

Zhang Jing and Li Rui are just poor people.

If you've been wrong for so many years, why not?

Li Rui's mood is similar. He was helped by two uncles when he was most helpless in his life, and the gentleman invited by the uncle let him know that he was not hopeless, and the gentleman invited by the younger uncle made him discover his talents, and at this point, the two uncles recreated him with kindness, which cannot be erased in any way.

Zhang Zhi hadn't seen this nephew for more than half a year, and no one would have imagined that it would be like this to see him again. Zhang Ning is ready to leave the old house and the Zhuangzi in the capital in addition to his confidants and family, and the old family will not bring any children, and stay to guard the old house and the Zhuangzi in the capital.

Even if these people were his grandfather's spies and assistants, he didn't bother to care. His house is now only an empty shell, and he has stored all the belongings that are inconvenient to move away in his mother-in-law's house, and those thieves will not be able to do anything unless they sell his house.

It's just that Zhang Ning remembered that among the dozen or so subordinates he sent to Li Rui, there were still a few of them who were born in the family and were raised and prepared to be retained since childhood, and later tried every means to arrange them to Li Rui's side, so he persuaded Li Rui to be careful, and if he didn't work, he would simply change them, so as not to have long nights and dreams, and cause trouble.

Li Rui didn't expect that even his uncle's side was infiltrated by the remnants of the Yin Dynasty, and he felt 120,000 disgusted with these jumping clowns, and he couldn't wait to catch those so-called princes and kill them.

Even the roots are broken, look at what name they will take to restore the country!

On the fourth day after Zhang Zhi returned to Beijing, he sent an excerpt to the officials and asked for "Ding Wei". He is a concubine who keeps filial piety for his mother-in-law, so he also has to keep it for three years. Zhang Ning had already sent someone back to his hometown in Yanzhou to find a good leyline and move his father and mother to another burial. This is a big deal, and Zhang Zhi said that he must also go back together to rest assured.

After burying his mother, Zhang Zhi and Zhang Ning stayed there for their mother for three years, and then returned to Liangzhou to take up their duties again.

Zhang Ning is the eldest son, and his mother died unexpectedly, and he has to stay for six years according to the system, so after that, the weddings and funerals of his younger generations will depend on his younger brothers and sisters to help manage them.

Zhang Zhishang's excerpt quickly passed through the ministry and reached the emperor directly. Chu Rui was very satisfied with the concubine of the Zhang family, and directly approved his request for "Ding Wei", and gave him half a year to deal with his mother's funeral and the work at the border gate, and then start Ding Wei for 27 months.

At first glance, Zhang Zhi's Ding Wei seemed to have become longer, but the emperor allowed him to return to the border to deal with official business, which meant that even if he left, the position of "Du Lieutenant" could only be "replaced", not the same as Zhang Ning's "commission", and he could continue to take office when he returned, and it was likely that he would go further.

This can be regarded as a kind of appeasement in disguise.

Outside the customs.

Yin Tianyi received an urgent report from Beijing, and his eyes were so shocked that he almost fell to the ground all at once.

"Lord, what's going on?" A subordinate dressed as a military general hurriedly supported his master, and this help was even more shocked.

In this cold and frozen weather, their lord was covered with beads of sweat on the tip of his nose and his hands were shaking.

"Kyochu...... There is a change in Beijing. Yin Tianyi and a scribe on the side said, "Mr. Jia, I have to go back to the capital for you." ”

"What else could change? Although Chu Rui pulled out a lot of our strongholds, the strongholds were originally not our focus in Beijing, not to mention that Mrs. Zhang went to the capital in person...... "Mr. Jia is a middle-aged scribe with a white face and a slight beard, his appearance is very ordinary, and his speech is also slow and logical.

Yin Tianyi is the descendant of the five princes of the previous dynasty, if the Yin Dynasty is still there, he is the one with the strongest royal blood, that is, the best candidate for the throne.

One of his two sons was sent to the Jiang family, and the other was sent to the home of an official in Tongzhou for foster care, and he was running around for decades until he came here.

"Mrs. Zhang is dead, she was strangled to death by Cui's." Yin Tianyi said with a blushing face, "In order to stock up on grain before the flood, Mrs. Zhang moved the silver from the Zhang family, and the Cui family couldn't ask for money, so the two had a dispute and ended up together." ”

"This ...... This ......" Mr. Jia took the letter from Yin Tianyi's hand and read it carefully, and when he finished reading it, the scribe couldn't sit still. "I'll take a break, and I'll go back to the capital."

He paused, and then asked his master.

"After this incident, the Zhang family has completely abolished this chess piece. Zhang Ning and Zhang Zhi are not available again, is it an idea to make them ......?"

"Never!" Yin Tianyi exclaimed, "Now the situation in Dachu is all maintained by the manpower left by Old Master Zhang, and the people under Old Master Zhang say that they support the Yin Dynasty, but in fact, they are all his henchmen. As soon as he died, we began to target his descendants, and the people on Taishi's side will change immediately, but they will go to save the descendants of Mrs. Zhang's family, and there will be countless incidents. ”

"Damn, I don't know what the situation is in the capital now...... Mr. Jia is angry about the efficiency of the transmission of information outside the customs, and now his eyes are black, even if he returns to Beijing, the dust will settle.

The manpower left by Da Chu must be in a hurry to re-stand in line, if he doesn't go back, who knows what will become of the people left behind by Zhang Tingyan?

"If you go back this time, try your best to gather the manpower of Mrs. Zhang, and don't make any more extraneous branches. Now that we are about to get into trouble, Mrs. Zhang has died in Beijing, and I can rest assured that you go to Beijing. If you really can't solve it, go to the King of Qiyang to borrow someone. Now there is no room for error, remember! ”

Yin Tianyi has been planning for this day for many years, and even united almost all the forces of Great Chu against Chu Rui, and now he and the queen of Qiyang are planning things outside the pass, and they don't want to see anything wrong in their hometown.

The people and horses left behind by Da Chu are all internal responses, and once they are exposed, they will only have to return with a feather.

"Lord Princess, the leader of the Huaduo tribe has brought two thousand clansmen to vote!" A subordinate reported off the books.

"Great, the most stubborn one is also here!"

"Congratulations, my lord!"

"The lord is just around the corner to reorganize the rivers and mountains!"

In the palace.

Kun Yuan Palace.

"Mother, this is the second month, right?" Zhang Shaoguang's personal female officer, Ding Yi, said excitedly, "Old Taijun Qiu's booklet is really useful!" Mother, you must be pregnant with a dragon seed! ”

Mrs. Qiu is really a god! The mother is finally pregnant again!

"Don't make a noise yet, and then 'find out' during the Chinese New Year." Zhang Shaoguang was also happy, gently stroking his belly.

After many years, another child is here.

When bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new, it is the day when heaven and earth are handed over, and the queen finds out that she is pregnant during the New Year, which is undoubtedly a joy and a blessing for the whole Dachu.

Zhang Shaoguang didn't expect to have a child so soon, but since the child came, she, as a mother, naturally wanted to give him/her everything best from the beginning.

The timing of birth often determines whether a child is born or not.

It seems that she is going to start taking advantage of the upcoming New Year to "rectify" the harem.
