The north wind is bleak, and the breath of winter is quietly coming.

Zhang Zhi tightened his robe, crossed his hands and hid them in his sleeves, and stopped to look into the distance.

In the line of sight, the chariot and horse of the captain An Lai gradually enlarged until everyone could clearly see the carved marks on the car.

A team of warriors dressed in black armor and red robes, with bows and horses, escorted a dignified and heavy carriage to the outside of Cloud City.

At the front of the carriage, a bamboo pole stands tall, and three white poles are hung on it.

Zhang Zhi led all the officials in the clouds to hurriedly step forward and kneel down about fifty steps away from the carriage: "The ministers meet Your Majesty!" ”

The surrounding people heard this high-pitched voice, and knelt down on the ground like a conditioned reflex: "The grass people and others worship Your Majesty, my emperor is blessed~"

Where the festival comes, it is like me coming!

Out of the carriage came a man in brocade clothes, with a square face of Chinese characters, ignoring the hairbrush that was disturbed by the wind, hurriedly holding the Son of Heaven in his hand, sideways to avoid the salute, and said in a deep voice: "I bow down." ”

"The Son of Heaven Festival is coming, and the lower officials have not been far away, capital crime, capital crime..."

The man smiled gently, walked out of the carriage with Jie Xuan, and helped Zhang Zhi up: "Master Zhang's words are serious, the contemptible people have not sent anyone to pass it on, it is a disrespectful person." ”

Zhang Zhi dared to stand up, stepped forward, and greeted the man in brocade: "It turned out to be a straight waiter, since Chang'an, it has been several years, and I miss it very much~"

Zhi Budo politely took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Zhang Zhi: "When I go out of Beijing, I will ask Zun to repair this family letter and hand it over to Zhang. ”

Zhang went directly to Bujin and invited the delegation to enter Cloud City.

And Qian Heng, who greeted him as a local gentry, was chilling down his spine at the moment, and he was swinging all over.

"It's over... It's really getting a big deal..."

I thought that as long as I killed that group of Diao people, this matter would be over, but now it's good, not to mention the old immortal, there are angels coming...

This must be dealt with as soon as possible!

Don't wait for things to get out of hand!

Otherwise, there will be hundreds of people in the Qian family, and none of them will be able to escape!

Beside him, the eldest son Qian Yi looked at the madness on his father's face, and the uneasiness in his heart became more and more high, but he didn't know how to dissuade him...

Han Law: If the son sues the father, the non-public office sues, don't listen to the abandonment of the market!

He couldn't even sue his father!

All the way back to the county office, Zhi Budo spent an afternoon and briefly looked at the documents about the previous war.

Although the war briefing had already been sent to Chang'an, and it was undoubtedly checked carefully before leaving Beijing, there were only the number of casualties, the number of beheadings, civilian casualties, and the loss of fortifications.

In the whole battle process, only one sentence was used: In autumn and September, 5,000 Hun soldiers attacked Yunzhong, but failed to fall for three days, so they followed.

On this trip, the mission he carried, in addition to condolences to the soldiers and rewarding the meritorious soldiers, was to understand the beginning and end of the war clearly, record it in detail, and bring it back to Chang'an to be handed over to the court to discuss merits and demerits.

The first thing is to find out whether Wei Gudu, the person who spoke in the original clouds, was cowardly and slacking off in battle, discaring for the soldiers, and disregarding the survival of the people-

I don't know how many people in the court pay attention to this matter; Before leaving Beijing, there is no doubt that the door of the house was blocked by these carriages for several days!

The people who walked down from the carriage were all characters who could call the wind and rain in Chang'an City!

Zhi Bu did not dare to slack off, so he had to politely invite them in; The strange thing is that their tone is the same: Therefore, the clouds are guarded, and the loyal ministers are also! Angels don't make a mistake...

What frightened Zhi Budo the most was that even His Majesty summoned him privately and vaguely mentioned: Duke Wei, the true elder, the pillar of the country, and the loyal minister of the Han family!

Rao is not sure that his status is not high, but Yizhonglang also understands how to deal with this matter: pick up the good ones and bring them back, and protect the name of the old general Wei...

If it is said that putting gold on the face of a gentleman who doesn't understand bullshit just makes Zhi Budo a little awkward, then the other one really makes him gnash his teeth!

He still can't forget the proverb that circulated in Chang'an before he left Beijing: General Luan Bu, acting on behalf of Yue Xuan, how can this be the way of a minister?

I was so angry that I almost sprayed a mouthful of spit on the face of the idler who was hurting!

General Luan has been a general for more than 50 years, and he has gone through large and small battles!

Is it also a pastime for the vulgar people in the market?

On that day, the indignant Zhi Budo went to Weiyang Palace with a piece of paper, but he couldn't carry it to His Majesty's throne at all.

Because of that day, everything that happened in Weiyang Palace made the young Zhiundo's perception of the court change unprecedentedly.

Therefore, the prince's family ordered Chao to make a mistake, and in the main hall of Weiyang Palace, he scolded Prime Minister Shen Tujia, and in the end, he almost added his fists and feet!

What really makes Zhi Bu undoubtedly like falling into the abyss is that the current saint is standing in front of the throne like that, watching the two argue with an ancient face, and finally send the old prime minister away, leaving the wrong pair alone...

At that time, a word so old that it was almost forgotten appeared in Zhibu's heart: Gong Gao Zhen Lord!

The saint, who has been on the throne for only a few months, has already begun to follow the path of his ancestors, using the art of the emperor to practice the way of checks and balances...

Realizing that Luan Bu overstepped his authority to command the soldiers of Yunzhong County this time, he had been promoted to the meritorious class of Huang Lao headed by Prime Minister Shen Tujia, and after the competition with the Xinchen group headed by Chao Cuo and hiding behind the scenes, he did not doubt that he couldn't take out the twists and turns in his arms that supported Luan Bu...

Once a son of heaven and a courtier.

He is not a former emperor, but a new monarch, and that's it...

But the documents in front of him made Zhi Budo a little suspicious of life.

Since the head of the Wei family, the only change that has occurred in the clouds is that the Wei family's total value is less than 100 gold, and it has rapidly expanded to thousands of gold in the cellar, and hundreds of acres of land!

In the war, the only thing he did was to put on the armor and go to the city wall in person, but in the end he was hit by an arrow and fell to the ground, which caused the army's heart to be in turmoil...

On the other hand, Luan Bu, who was going to collect evidence of his crimes on this trip, has been on the city wall all the time since the war, acting steadily and behaving moderately, almost single-handedly, trying to ensure that Yunzhong City is not lost!

After the war, there was no overstep, and the war stopped and unloaded the armor, and no longer cared about the affairs in the clouds...

Do you really want to go against the grain, go along with the treacherous, and harm the heroes?

So what's the difference between yourself and those stupid insects in Chang'an City who eat and wait for death?

When the new emperor ascended the throne, he was undoubtedly full of pride and ambition, determined to help the new emperor open up the world, do a great career, and be a famous minister who will go down in history!

The reality in front of him ruthlessly shattered the heroism in his heart, making him not know where he should go...

Behind Zhi Budo, Zhang Zhi saw that he had been silent for a long time, and he was uneasy in his heart, and he didn't know how to tell him about the past.

Slightly pale and said in a low voice: "The angel is coming from afar, the carriage and horses are tired, it is getting late today, why don't you eat some thin wine first, and your subordinates can also give the angel the wind and dust, and enjoy the friendship of the landlord?" ”

Zhi Budo let out a long sigh, returned to his previous harmless complexion of humans and animals, and turned his head: "I'm tired of Zhang Zhu's book." ”
