Chapter Seventy-Nine: Liu Hong's Banquet

Tang Zheng followed Emperor Han Ling's chariot to Guanglu Temple, only to see that the banquet in the field had been prepared, and the ministers stood aside to greet Emperor Han Ling's car, and Emperor Han Ling walked down and waved his hand to the ministers to signal them to be exempt.

Emperor Han Ling came to his exclusive seat and sat down and said to everyone: "A lot of things have happened this year, especially the Yellow Turban Rebellion that has affected many states. Fortunately, Zhu Qing did his best to bless the ancestors and exterminate the Yellow Turban thieves. In order to thank Zhuqing for his hard work this year, I prepared a banquet here to celebrate Zhuqing's achievements. Here I would like to introduce to you a young hero, who with only 8,000 soldiers and horses, exterminated the Yellow Turban thieves Deng Mao and others who caused disaster in Youzhou, and even resisted the 200,000 joint troops of Qiu Liju and Zhang Chun of Wuhuan to invade Youbeiping. ”

Hearing Emperor Han Ling's words, everyone turned their heads one after another. For a while, I was asking who could make such a miraculous feat, and it was no wonder that Liu Hong would introduce this person to everyone with such fanfare. Such a talent can be called a rare one in a hundred years, and since the Han Wu and Guangwu, there has never been a decent famous general in the Han Dynasty. Maybe this person will be the banner bearer of the generals of the Han Dynasty after Han Wu and Guangwu.

Emperor Han Ling was very satisfied with the reaction of the ministers below, so he beckoned to Tang Zheng and motioned for him to come over, and Tang Zheng walked quickly to Emperor Han Ling's Liu Hong. Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty said to the ministers: "Zhuqing, this is the young hero Tang Zheng I am talking about. ”

When all the ministers heard Emperor Han Ling's words, they all looked at Tang Zheng, good guy, this is not yet the year of the weak crown. Who has cultivated such a talented person, and after such a miraculous achievement, it is just around the corner. Tang Zheng's appearance is relatively good, and he has thick eyebrows and big eyes. Standing on the stage and looking down at the ministers under the stage, there is a special momentum.

"Maybe you don't know that Tang Qing is the second son of Tang Mao."

At this time, the discussion in the audience became louder, and those who were familiar with Tang Mao knew that Tang Mao's second son had disappeared as early as two years ago. Now it's good that the missing person for two years suddenly came out, and he has made a miraculous achievement.

Everyone talked about it and began to think about whether they should have a relationship with Tang Mao? Those who have relationships are also considering whether the ties between the two families should be strengthened, rather than a marriage or something. I just don't know if this Tang Zheng is married? Can you be interested in someone?

Tang Zheng stood on the stage and looked at the crowd of people talking below, feeling like a swarm of flies buzzing in his ears around him. He didn't know that there were already many people who were already beating his mind.

"Okay, let's not talk about other things yet, everyone must be hungry. Zhu Qing, please come to the table, the food will not taste good if it is cold. Emperor Han Ling said to everyone in the audience, and arranged Tang Zheng to the position next to him, and distributed some food from his table to Tang Zheng.

Tang Zheng's treatment deeply stimulated the ministers in the audience, everyone decided to go home to see if there was a suitable unmarried woman in their family, and those who had no children also decided to have a good relationship with the Tang family, judging from the attitude of Emperor Han Ling towards Tang Zheng, the rise of the Tang family has been unstoppable.

To be honest, today's meal really doesn't suit Tang Zheng's appetite, there is no salt and no taste, not to mention, the original aroma of the food is all covered by unknown seasonings. Emperor Han Ling saw that Tang Zheng didn't move his chopsticks much, so he asked, "What's wrong, Tang Qing?" Is the food not to your liking? ”

"Back to the saint, it's not that the food is unappetizing, it's just that Weichen thought of his greedy sister at home. My sister has always been delicious, but my brother can't taste it at home, but it's just a pity. ”

"Hahaha, what else should I do, so that's it. Tang Qing, you can eat it, and when you leave, I will ask the imperial chef to make another one for you to take home so that your sister can taste it. ”

Tang Zheng got up and bowed to Emperor Han Ling and said, "Wei Chen thanked the Holy Grace on behalf of his sister. ”

"Tang Qing doesn't have to be polite, take a seat. The meal will be cold after a while, and it will not taste good. Emperor Han Ling said, and then he seemed to remember something and turned to Tang Zheng and asked, "By the way, Tang Qing heard that your sister will be fifteen years old after this year, right?" ”

Tang Zheng didn't know what Emperor Han Ling meant, so he replied honestly: "Back to the emperor, yes." My sister will be fifteen years old this year. ”

"Yes, that's good. You see that the prince is just five out of ten this year, and there is not much difference in age from Ling Mei, or I will make the decision to let the emperor take Ling Mei as his wife, Tang Qing, what do you think? ”

Tang Zheng didn't expect Emperor Han Ling to mention his sister's family affairs to him, to be honest, he really didn't want his sister to marry Liu Wei, a young emperor who was destined to be deposed in the future. He couldn't watch his sister jump into the fire pit, so he said to Emperor Han Ling: "Holy Lord, these things can't be mastered by the ministers, and everything has to be decided by the father." ”

"Well, yes, it's true that the words of the matchmaker are not up to you, go back and ask Tang Taishou what he thinks. Tang Qing should eat quickly, otherwise it will be cold in a while. ”

A saltless and tasteless luncheon made Tang Zheng absent-minded, and under the leadership of Zhao Zhi, Tang Zheng left the West Garden.

"Brother Tang, if you need to use our family's place, say it." Zhao Zhi said to Tang Zheng after sending Tang Zheng outside the palace. Zhao Zhi didn't expect that he would have an income of five thousand taels of silver just by simply going to the noise today, which greatly improved his good impression of Tang Zheng. Of course, the main reason is Tang Zheng's generous move, Tang Zheng brought 50,000 taels to Luoyang this time to prepare for buying and official, who knew that Emperor Han Ling actually had the intention of promoting himself. Although Emperor Ling of Han never mentioned the matter of his official position today, the news he heard from Zhao Zhi should be inseparable.

"There is Brother Lao Zhao to send him off, Brother Zhao, please go back. Little brother, if there is anything to trouble Brother Zhao in the future, please ask Brother Zhao not to shirk. After speaking, Tang Zheng stuffed two silver tickets into Zhao Zhi's sleeve without a trace.

"Hahaha, Brother Tang is polite, just say anything in the future. Although our family may not be able to help, it's not that our family still has a godfather. ”

Tang Zheng arched his hand to Zhao Zhi, and then walked in the direction of Tang's house with Zhang Chao, who was waiting outside the palace.

"Childe, can we go back to Rinshan?" On the way, Zhang Chao asked Tang Zheng.

"Not yet, the saint didn't say when I would go back today, let's wait two more days. By the way, the brothers are used to living in inns. ”

"Childe, everyone is fine, it's just that everyone is a little homesick after coming out for so long. However, everyone still remembers Childe's instruction to rarely go out of the inn in the past two days. ”

"Well, everyone has worked hard, let everyone endure a few more days before we can go back to Rinsan. By the way, Zhang Chao, don't let everyone stay in the inn all the time, take this rare opportunity to come to Luoyang to let everyone go out to relax and see the prosperity of Luoyang. ”

"Well, Childe, I know what to do."

Tang Zheng and Zhang Chao talked as they walked all the way, and returned to the Tang Mansion after a while.
