On October days, the aftermath of the autumn tiger has faded away.

Ma Yun's days in Xiangzhou are unusually busy. Lingnan West Road, the land is vast and sparsely populated, there are many indigenous people, each set up a walled door, living in the dense forest and deep mountains, reading less poetry and books, and disobeying the king's teaching. The year before last, after Ma Guangmeng conquered Rongzhou, he began to cooperate with the political envoy Sun Guangxian, and further strengthened the degree of land reform and return to the river on the basis of the original Tang Dynasty. Lingnan West Road is mountainous, and the mountains are intertwined, forming large and small basins. Sun Guangxian gave preferential policies, lured the natives out of the mountains and forests, went to the basin to cultivate mulberry, and granted the chiefs large and small official positions, so that some people gradually moved from slash-and-burn scythes to a normal farming life. For those who resisted stubbornly, Ma Guangmeng also made a ruthless move and wiped out many villages.

This time, Ma Yunshuai, the king of Chu, came with a large army, and Xiangzhou, Liuzhou and other Lingnan West Roads were quite shaken, and these leaders were panicked, so Ma Yun, accompanied by Sun Guangxian, officially met with these leaders in the Assassin's Mansion. The majestic and mighty sergeants, the elegant and elegant literati, the kind and decisive style, and the elegant and strict etiquette left a deep impression on them and aroused their strong interest. Under the deterrence of the army, Ma Yun, the king of Chu, also promoted a group of civilians from among these locals to official positions, reducing the influence of the leaders among the people; On the other hand, some children of the leaders were also selected to go to Changsha to study in the Ma Academy. And officially promulgated the royal decree, two years later, in Lingnan regardless of race, the official implementation of the imperial examination system, as long as the book is good, you can also serve the country as an official.

Ma Yun's royal decree brought an unprecedented reading fever to Lingnan West Road, and after the leaders saw the king of Chu, they went to big cities such as Xiangzhou to hire Mr. Teacher, which suddenly became a hot profession in Lingnan. In addition to these, Ma Yun often goes to the military camp to inspect the training in the army.

On this day, Ma Yun had just finished training the army in the pro-guard army, when he saw Li Ergou running over and whispered: "Your lord, Zhang Niangniang is here." ”

Ma Yun turned his head to look at him and asked, "Why is she here?" Where is she now? Assassin Mansion? "Ma Yun now has five wives, Zhang Niangniang, and naturally she is the newly married Zhang Qian.

Several of his wives and concubines, Jing Niang is graceful and docile, Princess Mingle is knowledgeable, Peng Shuang is smart and smart, Ziying was quite heroic before she got married, but after she got married, she gradually became dignified and quiet, only this new Zhang Qian, but she is still the same as before. Thinking of Zhang Qianlai, Ma Yun raised a smile on his face, and couldn't help but recall the ridiculous cave room candle night.

The king of Chu accepted the concubine, and the city of Changsha was naturally jubilant. Ma Yun is also happy to feast on the ministers and nobles, but he is happy, but he is not as lively as when he married Ziying in Yanzhou. After all, Ma Yungui is the king of Chu, and the ministers dare not be more polite, and Ma Xiguang, the uncles and elders, and the royal clansmen, also bow their heads and obey their goals, they can only congratulate, and no one dares to mention any troubled houses, or wine with the groom and officials. Ma Yun toasted, and it became "I'll do it all, the king, you are free." "After three rounds of drinking, Ma Yun, who has the intention of getting drunk, is unusually sober.

At the invitation of the ministers, he reluctantly returned to the Caiyin Courtyard in the back left corner of the Chengle Palace. It was Zhang Qian's wedding room. For Zhang Qian, an unusually fateful lady, Ma Yun walked into the new house with a worried mood.

This new house is a suite inside and out, with a delicate partition wall made of brown willow wood in the middle, and a small moon door in the middle, decorated with beaded curtains. On the left side of the outer room is a table of eight immortals made of rosewood, with wine and food on the table, and two big red candles against the wall inside. In the middle facing the moon gate is a fine dressing table, on which are also lit two high-legged red candles, on one side is a large bed, bright yellow silk tent, in the corner of the bed, stacked with a thin blanket of red embroidered satin, and a navy blue bamboo mat spread on the bed. Zhang Qian lowered her head and sat on the edge of the bed.

The royal concubine, unlike the people, Zhang Qian did not wear any red hijab, but wore a winged phoenix crown, and the four circles of the phoenix crown were hung down with strings of pearls, similar to the red hijab, and the face was slightly covered.

With the creak of the door being pushed open, Zhang Qian raised her head, glanced at the door with a pair of beautiful eyes, and saw Ma Yun walking in, and her body seemed to move into the bed. Ma Yun staggered two steps, looking overwhelmed. saw Zhang Qian stand up, quickly pass through the moon gate, and hold him up.

Ma Yun was stunned, he was deliberately pretending to be drunk. Unexpectedly, Zhang Qian came over to help him and closed the door with his hand. Zhang Qian helped Ma Yun to the bed, and she asked in a low voice, "Do you want to drink some water?" I've heard that people who get drunk are very thirsty. ”

Who doesn't know, the Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold. The supreme leader of Da Chu, who has the courage to persuade Ma Yun to drink. Ma Yun glanced at Zhang Qian, under the reflection of the candlelight, Zhang Qian's face was ruddy and glamorous. He licked his lips and said, "No, let's rest." ”

Zhang Qian's cheeks were flushed, she bit her lip, nodded, walked outside, blew out the candle, walked back to the moon gate, and put down the curtain. She returned to the bed, half-squatted, ready to help Ma Yun gently take off her boots. This gentle little woman's expression made Ma Yun a little surprised, and he quickly sat up straight and said, "I'll come by myself, I'll come by myself." ”

"I'll come, it's me who serves the minister... Yes... I'm wrong again, I should call you king. Zhang Qian glanced at Ma Yun and said softly.

。。。

----

Hearing that Zhang Qian was coming, a smile appeared on the corner of Ma Yun's mouth, and he still remembered his reply at that time: "En... Needs to be improved. And to do it later... When your knees are on your own, try not to move themselves ... ”

Seeing Ma Yun standing with a smile and a very good mood, Li Ergou continued: "King, Lord Zhao Puzhao is also here, and Feng Yanlu from Li Tang is also here." ”

"Oh." Ma Yun reflected and said, "Let's go, go back to the Shifu." "Hey, he's busy.

He turned his head and asked Li Xiang on the side and said, "Li Aiqing, Feng Yanlu is here, probably urging our army to attack Fengzhou." Look, how should we deal with it? ”

Li Xiang smiled and attached to Ma Yun and whispered a few words.

Ma Yun stroked his palms and smiled: "Wonderful, wonderful." ”

Since Chu Tang is a joint army, there is no reason to put Feng Yanlu aside at this time. Ma Yun replied to the assassination of Shifu, and immediately summoned Comrade Feng Yanlu, the liaison officer of Chu and Tang.

In the hall of the Assassin's Mansion, Feng Yanlu gave a salute, and under Ma Yun's signal, as soon as he sat down, he saw Li Ergou walk in and said, "Your Majesty, the Yongzhou front line will send an emergency military intelligence quickly." ”

Ma Yun was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Quickly call that person up." ”

Not long after, a dusty sergeant walked in, this person's face was scorched, looking at the military uniform, it was just a small lieutenant, he saw Ma Yuntong kneeling on the ground, and said, "The last general will meet the king." At present, Yongzhou emergency military intelligence is sent. As he spoke, he took out a military message from his bosom.

Li Ergou took it and quickly transferred it to Ma Yun, Ma Yun saw it, his face immediately sank, and he asked: "The widow asked you, how many days have you been along the way?" ”

"Your lord, the last general has walked all the way for two and a half days."

Ma Yun frowned, stood up, walked a few steps slowly, handed the official document to Li Xiang, and sighed heavily.

Feng Yanlu was suddenly worried when he saw Ma Yun, but he didn't know what was going on on the Yongzhou front, could it be that he was defeated? Impossible, right? There shouldn't be many soldiers and horses in Yongzhou. At this time, Chu Tang was closely related, and he couldn't help asking: "King, dare to ask what happened in Yongzhou." ”
