The snow drifted overnight, and finally cleared the next day.

I saw a red sun rising from the horizon little by little, illuminating the entire white earth with a red light.

The gates of Gyeongju Fortress slowly opened, and a new day came.

Yang Wengan, the governor of Gyeongju, once served as a guard in the East Palace, but a few years of seniority and military exploits have promoted him to the position of governor of Gyeongju. However, he often remembered the courtesy that the crown prince had given him when he was in the East Palace. As the saying goes: "The king treats me as a countryman, and he should repay the king with a countryman!" Therefore, when receiving the letter from Li Jiancheng, Yang Wengan agreed without hesitation.

At this moment, Yang Wengan was standing on the edge of a railing. Looking down, nearly a thousand brave warriors were lined up in a phalanx, standing on the school grounds.

Standing straight like this, without drawing a knife or lifting a gun, a murderous aura suddenly filled the air, and it seemed that even the temperature in the vicinity had dropped a lot.

Yang Wengan looked at this army of nearly 1,000 people, and his eyes were full of satisfaction. This army, which had been honed in battle with the Turks, had previously numbered about 3,000 men, but now there were only 1,000 men left.

Thinking back to the letter that the crown prince built, Yang Wengan's heart was full of excitement. In the letter, Li Jiancheng asked Yang Wengan to gather elite people and quietly send them to Chang'an. Is the prince finally going to do it? The first one to be eliminated is probably Li Shimin, the king of Qin!

"Governor, the troops have been assembled!" An adjutant walked up to Yang Wengan and said.

"Good! Let's go! Yang Wengan walked to the school field first, looking at the team of nearly 1,000 people, Yang Wengan said loudly: "A few days ago, the prince sent a letter, saying that he would select elite people to go to Chang'an and serve as the guards of the East Palace!" Now I ask you, which of you would like to go? ”

The soldiers immediately began to discuss. Chang'an, what a desirable place, is probably much better than this Gyeongju day and night to guard against Turkic attacks!

Yang Wengan glanced at it, and the discussion below suddenly became quieter.

"If you are willing to go to Chang'an, you can register with Juncao within three days!" After speaking, he took the majesty of the head of the army and paced away from the school grounds.

Three days later, when Yang Wengan counted the number of people, he found that there were only more than 200 people willing to go to Chang'an. I am afraid that the crown prince is not satisfied with this number, and Gyeongju is an important northern town guarding Guanzhong, so the number of troops cannot be too scarce. So he ordered to select heroic men from the people and go to Chang'an with these more than 200 sergeants.

However, not long after the selection began, and more than 80 people were only recruited, news came from Chang'an, saying that the prince had built a private investment to fill the East Palace, and was reprimanded for citing Youzhou Jingcai, and those Changlin sergeants were disbanded and Youzhou Jingcai was repatriated. So Yang Wengan suspended the recruitment of strong men.

In a blink of an eye, five years have passed.

In the midst of the fluttering snowflakes, the sixth year of martial arts has quietly arrived.

Zhang Yunwen spent the morning building a two-person tall snowman in his courtyard with his maid and a few active servants, and made two brooms into arms. And next to the snowman, a sick cat statue stands. This is the tiger that the Liu brothers are childlike and Yang Chang's son Yang Zhong built together. However, as soon as it was formed, it was mercilessly ridiculed by Zhang Yunwen and the maids. The three of them wanted to push the sick cat with red faces, but they were stopped by Zhang Yunwen.

There is no other work that can bring out my outstanding artistic talent! This is what Zhang Yunwen thought at the time.

The existence of the snowman made the children of the Qin Wangfu who came over as guests very excited. Seeing this cute snowman, this group of children couldn't help but stretch out their hands and touch a handful of them, so a small black palm suddenly appeared on the snow-white snowman.

Among them, the eldest Xiangcheng County Lord is only twelve years old this year, and Li Yu, the county lord of Runan, is eleven years old this year. As for Li Shimin's sons, they are all still under the age of five. Even the eldest son, Li Chengqian, is only four or five years old. It is the age of curiosity.

Zhang Yunwen couldn't help but think about these children and asked, "Little county lords, little princes, why are you interested in coming to me to play today?" "When she speaks, her expression is like that of the legendary wolf grandmother.

"The second sister brought us here!" Listening to the milky voices of the crowd, Zhang Yunwen couldn't help but smile. Second sister? Isn't that Li Yu!

Since the door-to-door action caused by the knighthood was quietly resolved by Li Yu, this girl has run to Zhang Yunwen's house more and more times. However, Zhang Yunwen was often not at home, which made her pounce. When Zhang Yunwen came back, he heard Mei Xiang chirping.

"Hehe, county lord, how is your condition? Why don't you see Dr. Sun Simiao? Zhang Yunwen slowly walked to Li Yu's side and asked.

And Rui'er, who was standing beside her, disappeared immediately when she saw Zhang Yunwen coming.

Li Yu's face flushed with a hint of redness, very similar to what he looked like after drinking. Zhang Yunwen suddenly found that Li Yu's face was not as sallow as before.

"Well, it's almost better, but I cough tightly when it's cold! As for Dr. Sun, he is now treating his aunt at his aunt's house in Pingyang. However, I heard that Dr. Sun doesn't seem to be sure about his aunt's illness, and says that it is a heart disease! Li Yu didn't look at Zhang Yunwen's face, staring at the snowflake on the ground.

Zhang Yunwen let out an "oh" and stopped talking.

This princess of Pingyang is also a heroine, Li Yuan took his subordinates back to Taiyuan to raise troops, took Li Shimin away, and the rest of the family stayed in Chang'an. Chang'an immediately ordered the arrest of Li Yuan's family, and at this time, Chai Shao, the husband of Princess Pingyang, also escaped from Chang'an under the pretext of welcoming Li Yuan. The whole burden was pressed on Princess Pingyang. Although she never complained, she must have expressed dissatisfaction with Li Yuan and Chai Shao's approach in her heart. Slowly depressed, it became a heart disease.

Looking at the carefree appearance of this group of children, Zhang Yunwen couldn't help but run to the courtyard, picked up a handful of snowflakes, and sprinkled them on the Liu brothers on the side, and suddenly the two of them screamed in the cold. When they came back to their senses, the two of them fiercely picked up a handful of snowflakes and threw them at Zhang Yunwen. Unexpectedly, it fell on the maid next to him and the child of Qin Wangfu.

So, a snow battle kicked off with laughter.

After that, Zhang Yunwen taught these children to play seesaw, peek-a-boo and other games, and even Mei Xiang and other maids on the side were hot-eyed, and slowly joined the ranks of frolic.

After playing with this group of children for a day, Zhang Yunwen also completely relaxed.

When it gets dark, the children will go home. Before leaving, a little county lord who was only five or six years old asked in a childish voice: "Well, that uncle of the Zhang family ......" Before the words fell, he saw his second sister glaring at him fiercely, and hurriedly changed his words, "Brother Zhang, can we also come to you to play in the future?" ”

Zhang Yunwen smiled gently and touched the little county lord's head: "Of course you can!" Come when you want! ”

These more than ten princes and grandsons reluctantly got into the carriage.

When the carriage disappeared on the long street, Zhang Yunwen stretched: "It's so tiring to take children!" ”
