Chapter 6 The Peony Garden
As soon as Zhang Kang returned home with his front foot, the person at his back foot hurriedly came to report:
There are friends named Zhang Liao and Chun Yuqiong to visit.
Since Zhang Kang was promoted to military captain the day before yesterday, Zhang's lineage, even his father Zhang Chong began to be polite when he saw him, and everyone up and down secretly regarded him as the head of the family......
The young master's friends came to visit, and the subordinates dared to be the slightest slack.
"Please! Ah no, I'm going to pick them up......"
Zhang Kang led his subordinates to hurriedly go out to the door and brought the two into the house.
"Zhang Shangjun, I'm here to say goodbye."
As soon as Zhang Liao saw Zhang Kang, he didn't wait for the two sides to sit down and greet each other, so he directly revealed his intentions.
As soon as the general returned to his house today, he summoned all the generals, selected eight henchmen, and went to various places tomorrow morning to recruit government soldiers.
It was precisely because of Zhang Liao's outstanding performance the night before that he was able to enter the eyes of the general.
Among the eight henchmen, he also has a share, and tomorrow he will go to Hebei to recruit government soldiers all the way......
"Hah! Congratulations to Brother Wen Yuan, when you come back this time, you won't run away when you are promoted to lieutenant. ”
Zhang Kang smiled and led the two into the Houfu Peony Garden, and then ordered his subordinates to set up his original hot pot banquet.
"It's not that Zhang Shangjun loves and cares for him, Wen Yuan is grateful!"
The three of them sat down in turn, and Zhang Liao clasped his hands into fists and thanked him again.
Maxima is often available, but Bole is hard to find.
If it weren't for Zhang Kang to give him a chance, no matter how capable he was, he would be useless.
After a while, more than a dozen servants of Zhang's Mansion set up a large copper stove, and on top of it was a huge copper hot pot basin.
After Zhang Kang crossed over, he had nothing to complain about his identity.
As the son-in-law of a giant businessman in Luoyang, someone wants money and money, in a word, he is in charge of corruption......
The only thing I'm not used to is that the diet of this year is really hard to swallow!
All the ingredients are thrown into a copper pot, and a little sea salt is added and cooked.
One meal or two meals can be said to be original, this is too much, as soon as he smells that smell, he suddenly feels that life is boring!
Luckily, there is money.
After a long time, Zhang Kang will figure out a set of hot pot methods based on the ingredients and ingredients on the market.
This set of equipment alone is no longer something that ordinary people can have.
Including the stove and so on, nearly 1,000 catties of bronze were used......
Strictly speaking, the hot pot cooking method is said to have been used by powerful families during the Shang and Zhou dynasties, but it was not his first creation.
He only made minor improvements in the placement of wood and the ignition of fires, at most it was an improved version.
Wait for the water to boil, put the peppercorns, ginger, shallots, sugarcane segments, grass roots and other ingredients into the pot, and then throw in dozens of catties of lamb belly......
"Brother Chunyu, tonight for Brother Wenyuan, say okay, don't get drunk and have no home!"
While the meat was rolling, Zhang Kang poured warm wine for them.
I don't know what the people here think, the wine has to be warmed before drinking.
At first, Zhang Kang was very unaccustomed to it, but as he drank it, he felt that it was actually very pleasant to drink it warm.
Although the degree is not high, after a few cups, the warm feeling comes up.
After three rounds of drinking, the three of them began to point out the world's major events.
This reminded Zhang Kang of last year, when he was on campus, after a few beers with a group of roommates, this country was destroyed and that country was destroyed......
"The general's recruitment this time is probably also because of the fear that the Empress Dowager Dong will unite the ten permanent servants and the hussar generals, which is not good for him. Alas! ”
Chun Yuqiong sighed!
Emperor Ling died, and now he is at no avail.
Empress Dowager Dong and the general are not on the right path, he just planned to be a general, but in fact, it is not.
That's how hard it is!
Zhang Kang thought about it carefully and said slowly: "The general's recruitment is not strictly for the Empress Dowager Dong. Probably, the Great General is simply expanding his influence! ”
In fact, Empress Dowager Dong's family is fundamentally vulnerable.
He Jin took this opportunity to recruit troops, and once it was done, the world of the Han Dynasty would be equal to his world.
When Emperor Ling was on his side, he naturally didn't dare to support his own troops. And now the young emperor is his nephew, but he is too young to call the shots.
In this kind of situation, it is not difficult for him to have some ideas......
The forces in Beijing, including the Imperial Forest Army and the Eighth Captain Janissary Army of the West Garden, were all in the hands of He Jin. Who can make any waves in the capital?
It's just that the only thing that makes the general uneasy is estimated to be the serious shortage of personnel in the two major services.
In terms of the Praetorian Guards under the command of Captain Xiyuan, Yuan Shao wanted to make meritorious service the day before yesterday, but he had to ask the general to send another Imperial Forest Army.
Originally, as his school captain, he could command 2,000 Jingwei, and then casually combine with Cao Cao or other school captains, which was more than enough.
In fact, even if he united with others, he would not be able to mobilize 5,000 Praetorian guards at all.
After all, the big head had been manipulated by the then captain of the military academy.
"You mean, the general may ......" Zhang Liao was shocked.
Could it be that the general wants to change the dynasty?
Then he recruited troops for the general, and he was a sinner......
"You're thinking too much. Brother Wenyuan, what should you do, you must spare no effort to contribute to my Han foundation! ”
Zhang Kang looked at Zhang Liao with a smile.
Good man!
The more he looked, the more pleasing he became.
Even if he won the favor of the general at this time, Zhang Liao still thought about the Han Dynasty, it was not easy!
History:
Zhang Liao went and didn't come back until He Jin was intercepted and killed by Zhang Rang and other eunuchs.
Just get it right.
In the future, if he finds a way to prevent Zhang Liao from joining Dong Zhuo's camp, he will not give the team planned to join Lu Bu, let alone the opportunity to surrender to Cao Cao.
Even if you can't control it, don't be cheap Cao Cao.
While talking, the three of them had several large cups of belly, plus the lamb belly rolled three times, and its fragrance was full of garden. The three of them feasted and sweated profusely.
"Two brothers, I'...... I have an idea, I don't know if to say it? ”
Chun Yuqiong's face was flushed, and her big tongue twisted and pinched out.
"Brother, brother, if you have something to say, we will bear it for you." Zhang Kang patted his chest and took a mouthful.
"Two brothers, today we are destined to get together, brother and I have even more admiration for the two brothers, why don't we worship as brothers with different surnames?"
Chun Yuqiong's eyes widened, left and right......
Although it was a whim, the two people in front of him really broke his heart.
In particular, the two of them took on a great responsibility for him without hesitation the day before yesterday. To put it mildly, this kind of behavior is simply more brotherly than a brother.
Zhang Kangmeng slapped the copper table, "That's what I mean." It's rare for everyone to get married as soon as they see each other, right? What does Brother Wenyuan think? ”
I never thought of it!
A trick that even he couldn't think of made Chun Yuqiong come up with it.
Also, he is a modern five-good young man, and he really doesn't have the idea of worshipping at every turn in the three views......
The ancients worshipped, and that was not just talk!
Zhang Liao smiled, raised his wine glass and dried it all. "It's as good as you want! It is a blessing to have a brother like this. ”
"Good, good! Someone ...... coming."
Zhang Kang waved his hand, turned around and ordered his subordinates to prepare a prayer supplies.
If he still has a trace of worries about becoming a hegemon, it doesn't seem to be a fool's dream to get these two major help unintentionally at the moment!
He did not have faith in himself, but in what the ancients called sworn brothers.
Even if the trend of the Three Kingdoms deviates from its original trajectory in the future-
This was his biggest fear.
With his involvement, the direction of the Three Kingdoms Hegemony will definitely be different.
He alone?
Without the so-called foresight, fight for a fart......
