A few days later, Gyeyang-gun.

From afar, thousands of soldiers and horses are approaching the city.

The leader was Zhang Xiu, and just as Zhang Xiu was about to send someone to call for battle, he saw the city gate slowly open, and two of them trotted out, with a smile on their faces.

Zhao Rin and Zhao Fan ran to Zhang Xiu, panting and laughing, and said: "Our two brothers have seen the general, but they didn't know that the general was coming, so they couldn't meet them from afar, and they still looked at the general Haihan." ”

Zhang Xiu raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "You are Guiyang Taishou Zhao Rin?" ”

"It is under this, this is the younger brother Zhao Fan, the two of us have long admired the prestige of the general, and we are willing to accept the edict to surrender to the general, and I hope that the general will not give up." Zhao Rin nodded and said with a sneer.

Zhang Xiu glanced at the two of them, and then said: "You're polite, since the two of you are willing to submit to me, then I will naturally not treat the two of you badly. ”

The two glanced at each other, showing joy, and said at the same time: "I have seen the lord, the wind is strong outside the city, and I invite the lord to enter the city to rest." ”

Zhang Xiuwen nodded with a smile, and immediately nodded to Hu Che'er, who understood and took a team of guards to enter the city first.

Watching Hu Che'er go away, Zhao Rin and Zhao Fan pinched their sweat, fortunately they were not prepared to shoot Zhang Xiu at this time, otherwise I am afraid they would be the first to die.

After a while, Hu Che'er strode back.

Zhang Xiu smiled gently, not embarrassed, and said heartily: "Enter the city." ”

In the city, on the streets.

The horse's hooves clattered on the stone slabs, making a crisp sound.

Zhang Xiu looked at both sides, and couldn't help but be surprised: "I see that the city is full of Xiqing things, I don't know who is married in the city?" ”

"Let the lord smile, the person who married is below." Zhao Rin smiled and said, "I dare to invite the lord to come over tomorrow evening to attend the wedding banquet." ”

"Wedding?" Zhang Xiuhu glanced at Zhao Rin suspiciously.

Is there such a coincidence in the world? As soon as he entered the city, he was going to get married?

Thinking of this, Zhang Xiu's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the two of them, it doesn't hurt if they don't see it, but this time the two of them are loyal to themselves, which is obviously trying to kill themselves!

Zhang Xiu's brows were tightly locked, and he instinctively held his sword.

But in the next breath, Zhang Xiu chuckled heartily and said, "Tomorrow evening, right?" Rest assured, I will go to the banquet on time, and I hope that Ziping will not give up the wine. ”

"Hehe, it must be." Zhao Rin breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said.

"Okay, I'm tired from the march for days, so quickly arrange a sleep for me." Zhang Xiu said without revealing joy.

"Naturally, naturally, my lord, please."

After a while, in a courtyard.

Zhang Xiu dismissed the two, his expression was cold, and his eyebrows were full of killing intent.

These two things, who don't know whether they are alive or dead, actually want to murder themselves. If it weren't for the fact that the two were local gentry, he would have cut them down just now.

There was no way, the rules of the late Han Dynasty disgusted him.

Although the fist can do whatever it wants, the family class is solidified, and it is not a fist that can be forcibly changed. Now that the brothers of the Zhao family have surrendered, if they are killed for no reason, they will definitely be dissatisfied with these families.

"Hu'er, order the three armies to strengthen their vigilance, and the food and water sources should not intersect with the city. In addition, arrange for guards to patrol day and night to investigate everything in the city. ”

"Also, find out for me who Zhao Rin is marrying and what is the relationship with the Zhao brothers." Zhang Xiu frowned calmly, and his voice was cold.

Although he couldn't directly cut Zhao Rin and Zhao Fan, if he let the two of them show their feet, it would be difficult for anyone to come.

Hu Che'er glanced at Zhang Xiu, and could feel the solemnity of his father-in-law, and immediately hugged his fists and promised.

Back in the wing, Zhang Xiu closed his eyes and pondered.

After a long time, Hu Che'er turned back and said in a deep voice: "Lord, the investigation is clear, Zhao Rin and Zhao Fan have bullied the people in ten days, and they are unpopular. ”

"And the person who married is the Fan family of Jizhou, it is said that Zhao Rin forced the Fan family to marry himself, there are many rumors in the city, but the wedding date was set a few days ago."

"Fan?" Zhang Xiuyu's eyebrows were slightly raised, as if she was a little familiar, isn't she going to marry Zhao Yun in the future? But it's been more than ten years since I married Zhao Yun.

If this woman Zhang Xiu remembers well, she should have the color of the country and be as famous as Zhen Mi.

"I think Zhao Rin and the others want to use the wedding banquet to do it at the banquet." Zhang Xiu frowned and muttered to herself, and then said: "Hu'er, tomorrow's banquet, listen to my orders." ”

"No!" Hu Che'er responded, and immediately glared: "Is the lord worried that the Zhao family brothers have bad intentions? ”

Zhang Xiu nodded, and then said: "Take the brothers below to find out the Zhao Mansion for me, and draw a drawing by the way, tomorrow night will definitely be uneasy." ”

…………

In the blink of an eye, the next day was dusk.

The sunset swayed in the city, reflecting the figures of the people who wanted to return home after a busy day, and those figures were slightly haggard. There was no smile on the folded faces, because they were really hard to live.

However, the largest mansion in the city, the Zhao Mansion, is singing and dancing at this time, and the guests are full. The sound of gongs and drums spread to half of Chenxian County, which can be described as very lively.

Zhao Rin was dressed in a red robe, with a smile on his face, standing at the door and constantly receiving customers, these are all the famous gentry class in Guiyang.

Looking at Zhang Xiu who came from afar, he greeted him more than ten steps, nodded and smiled throughout the whole process, and invited Zhang Xiu into the house.

The wedding banquet is placed in the courtyard of the water pavilion platform, rockery and stream, with pear blossoms and peach trees in the courtyard, which is quite beautiful. Candles hung on the trees, and dozens of maids stood on the left and right on either side.

Zhang Xiu found a secluded table and sat down, with Hu Che'er and more than a dozen soldiers standing behind him.

"Did all the people who arranged it get in?" Zhang Xiu pretended to pinch the cup, and said in a low voice.

Hu Che'er snorted and said, "All 100 people will enter the mansion, and an order will be issued within 100 breaths at the latest." The rest of the armor soldiers are hidden in the dark, and if there is any abnormal movement, they can seize the wall at any time. ”

Zhang Xiu nodded, looking at the surroundings with deep eyes.

After a long time, Zhao Rin wore a red robe, strode over and began to speak, and he inevitably bragged about Zhang Xiu. Those gentry and the Jingxiang Seven Clans can't be compared, and they are also complimented.

After doing this, Zhao Rin glanced at Zhang Xiu's position, a touch of killing intent flashed in his eyes, and gave a look to several family heads, and several people nodded knowingly, and left the table and walked towards Zhang Xiu.

"I've seen the general of the chariot and cavalry, and I've heard the general's name for a long time, and it's really a blessing to see it today." After saying that, since the toast is raised, the intention is obvious.

"Heh," Zhang Xiu sneered, pinched the cup and took a sip.

"Eh, this," several people's faces were bitter, Zhang Xiu clearly didn't give them face, but they forgot to look at Zhang Xiu's back armor, they gritted their teeth.

Zhao Rin looked at it, couldn't help but tease slightly, the five fingers holding the cup couldn't help but turn white, and then said to the housekeeper on the side: "How is Zhao Fan's preparation?" ”

"Home, all is ready."

Zhao Rin nodded, and immediately put a smile on his face, and strode towards Zhang Xiu with a wine bottle.
