Yu Youwei followed Li Yi away, and there were only two people left in the cottage, Zhang Wei and Wen Tingyun.

All of a sudden, the air became heavy.

After a long time, Zhang Wei said to Wen Tingyun, "Brother Wen is determined not to marry Miss Youwei?" ”

Wen Tingyun did not directly answer Zhang Wei's words, but said. "You have already seen it, Li Yigongzi is very interested in Youwei, I can only be an adult."

Okay——, as long as you are determined not to want Yu Youwei, then I have something to say, "Brother Wen, I have something I want to ask you for help." ”

Help?

Zhang Wei, who was originally very lively, actually took things seriously, and Wen Tingyun knew that he must have something important to tell him.

"Say it."

"I want to ask Brother Wen to help me convey my meaning to Miss Yu."

"What do you mean, what do you mean?"

"I will marry her." Zhang Wei said solemnly.

"Got it figured?"

"After thinking about it last night, I am more and more convinced that I am willing to marry Miss Yu." Zhang Wei said solemnly.

Hearing the news that Zhang Wei was willing to marry Yu Youwei as his wife, Wen Tingyun was very happy, and crossed his hands eight times in a row, not more than once, not much at a time.

"So good, so good, that Youwei can marry you as a wife, and it is not in vain that his father entrusted her to me." Wen Tingyun said happily to Zhang Wei: "Don't worry, I will definitely inform Youwei of this news as soon as possible." Just wait for the good news! ”

If Yu Youwei can marry Zhang Wei as his wife, of course, it is the best thing, one is that Zhang Wei is already a six-grade official of the imperial court at this time, Yu Youwei does not have to worry about marrying him to eat and drink, and the status is also conceivable; Second, Yu Youwei's father entrusted Yu Youwei to him, if Wen Tingyun only found a role as a concubine for other girls, he would be more or less sorry for the old man; Third, Zhang Wei and Wen Tingyun are good friends, and they will be able to come and go often in the future and help each other.

Now Zhang Wei is willing to marry Yu Youwei as his wife, what a good thing!

You must know that the gap between wives and concubines in ancient times was very large. Don't say anything else, but look at the literal meaning of the word concubine, and you can understand it to some extent.

concubines, daughters; The wife is also level.

In other words, the wife is on par with the husband in terms of family status; The concubine is different, the wife sits, and the concubine stands; The wife is asleep, and the concubine is serving; The wife served the table to eat, and the concubine ate leftovers in the kitchen.

This is not the most bizarre, the most bizarre thing is that concubines can also be exchanged for goods, for example, Cao Zhang in the Three Kingdoms period used his concubine to exchange horses, leaving a legend of beautiful concubines exchanging horses.

Now Zhang Wei is willing to marry Yu Youwei as his wife, which is not just a difference in name, there is a big difference behind it.

Subsequently, Wen Tingyun asked Zhang Wei: "Once there is news, where should I go to find you?" Is it going to the post house or the Zuo Xiaowei barracks? ”

Zhang Wei said to Wen Tingyun: "Brother Wen, now I have a house in Guiyifang in the south of Chang'an City. Brother Wen can find me anywhere at any time. ”

"Ah, you already have a house in Chang'an?" Wen Tingyun's eyes widened.

What kind of place is Chang'an, it is a place where every inch of land is valuable, I have struggled for most of my life in Chang'an and I can't even buy a house, how long has Zhang Wei been here, not only became a six-grade official of the imperial court, but also bought all the houses in Chang'an.

It's really more popular than people, and you can't live by comparing goods.

is also a person, why is there such a big gap in life?

Hearing the news that Zhang Wei had bought a house in Chang'an, Wen Tingyun, who was still very excited just now, immediately faded, "Brother, you are very good!" It's only been a long time, and I have a house in Chang'an, and I envy my brother very much. ”

You can envy it, the house is not yours anyway.

"Actually, I didn't buy this house, because I made great contributions in the process of crusading against Shanxi, Youzhou Jiedu let Master Zhang know that I had no assets in Chang'an, and specially ordered someone to buy it for me, and the yard is not big, that is, the yard of a medium-sized family." Zhang Wei said truthfully.

In Wen Tingyun's view, Zhang Wei is also a very ordinary person, and it is a miracle that such a person can make meritorious contributions in the war.

As the saying goes: people can't look good, sea water can't fight, don't look at my appearance is very ordinary, but my martial arts are not ordinary.

Hearing such news, Wen Tingyun said to Zhang Wei with great interest: "Come on, come on, sit down and talk, after you came back from Youzhou, Brother Wei hasn't spoken properly, you can talk to me about the war now." ”

Zhang Wei sat down and told Wen Tingyun about the crusade against Shanxi, and finally said: "Brother Wen, it's not too early, I still have to go back to the post house to prepare for tomorrow's dedication." ”

"This is a big deal, you should prepare well, and go to your house tomorrow afternoon for my brother. Just wait for the good news! Wen Tingyun said happily to Zhang Wei.

In Wen Tingyun's opinion, Zhang Wei is willing to marry Yu Youwei under such good conditions, and Yu Youwei will definitely agree.

With Wen Tingyun's promise, Zhang Wei's mood improved, "Brother Wen, I have something to do in the afternoon, go first." ”

"Okay, I'll go to your house tomorrow afternoon."

After bidding farewell to Wen Tingyun, Zhang Wei hurriedly rode towards Chang'an. With Wen Tingyun's promise, Zhang Wei's mood improved, and in the afternoon, he rehearsed the procedure of dedication with Zhang Zhifang and Shi Xiong.

Just after the rehearsal, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty ordered the fox and the officials of the military department, the household department, the ritual department, and the official department to make a special trip to Zhang Zhifang's post house.

"Oh, Xiangguo and all the adults are here, and there will be a long way to go." Zhang Zhifang arched his hand and said to Ling Fox.

"Okay, the cliché is gone, Your Majesty has set the official start of the ceremony tomorrow. You and your generals must arrive early. Ling Fox said to Zhang Zhifang.

"Don't worry, Lord Xiangguo, the last general will definitely arrive at the designated place early." Zhang Zhifang agreed.

At this time, Zheng Hao, the household servant who came with Ling Fox, saw Zhang Wei, "Oops, isn't this Zhang Wei?" I haven't seen you for a few days, and you actually went to Youzhou. This time, you can follow General Zhang to Chang'an, it seems that you have also made a meritorious service, and Zheng Hao congratulated you in advance. Zheng Hao said happily to Zhang Wei.

"Zhang Wei's achievements today are all due to General Zhang's support." Zhang Wei looked at Zhang Zhifang and said politely to Zheng Hao.

"Hahaha, brother, you are humble." Then Zhang Zhifang said to Zheng Hao: "My lord doesn't know, this expedition to Shanxi can go so smoothly, it is all Zhang Wei's idea, if he didn't actively come up with ideas and find a way, the expedition to Shanxi would never have gone so smoothly." ”

"Zhang Wei, this official knows that you are a flexible person, but I didn't think that you still have such talent in military affairs, and your future is limitless!" Zheng Hao said happily to Zhang Wei.

Seeing the two people talking endlessly, Ling Fox interrupted the conversation between the two with some unhappiness, and asked Zhang Zhifang: "How have you practiced in the past two days, can you let you adults take a look, and I can give you some advice." ”

"What Lord Xiangguo explained, how dare the last general relax, he has been stepping up his practice in the past few days. Otherwise, I'll show you a demonstration. Zhang Zhifang said to Ling Fox and the adults.

"Okay——, then you can go through it, and we can make some suggestions."

Subsequently, Zhang Zhifang, Shi Xiong, and Zhang Wei showed Ling Huxuan and others the situation of the practice in the past few days, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites made some suggestions in terms of details.

After Ling Hu Xuan and his party left, Zuo Xiaowei's general Wang Fengdong came over, "Oh, Zhang Wei, this general has long known that you are a capable person." Look, I'm not wrong, this trip to Youzhou has established meritorious service. As the general's personal soldier, my face also shines! ”

"Zhang Wei can have today, it is all the result of the general's hand-held, and Zhang Wei remembers it in his heart." Zhang Wei said complimentingly.

"Hey———, that's not right, it's still you're capable. But this Youzhou matter is also done, you should come back, I think you don't want to go to Youzhou again when you come back this time, just stay by Ben General's side. Wang Fengdong is a real person, and he said to Zhang Wei very sincerely.

"I'd love to return to the general, but now I'm the Captain of Guoyi in Youzhou, so I can't go back to the general again to be a personal soldier, right?" Anyway, he is also familiar with Wang Fengdong, and Zhang Wei directly said what was in his heart.

"This? That's what you kid said! Although I can give you a position, I can't give you an official position! Why don't you go to the Sacrifice Ceremony first, and then we'll find a way to keep you after that. Wang Fengdong said.

What else can Zhang Wei say, the matter has come to this, and it can only be like this.
