Zhang Yi was waiting for the news of the Zhang family in Liangzhou in the pavilion, he was not in a hurry, the wine was drunk, the food was enjoyed, and the maids sent by the Zhang family were also smiling, and they were really comfortable and comfortable. Because he knows such a big thing, Liangzhou must have a meeting to discuss, even if it is undecided, it is reasonable.

This time he was ordered to come, in fact, he took a great risk, because if the Zhang clan refused to return to Yu Hua and still served Jinshuo, it was possible to kill him Zhang Ziqi to sacrifice the flag. It's just that Zhang Yi has been under the government for a long time, and the new dynasty was built, so he was able to jump to the sixth grade - of course, it was the gift of the benefactor Wang Gong - Yu Qing was the liver and brain to repay the king, and Yu Li knew more about the truth of wealth and danger, so he took the risk to come. Zhang Ziqi will inevitably think, maybe my head will fall to the ground tomorrow, so why not take this last opportunity to enjoy it, and when?

In the meantime, I naturally thought about going out for a walk, seeing the scenery of Xizhou, and listening to the people's discussions, but unfortunately the guards guarded each door and resolutely refused to let them in.

Zhang Yi thought that he would have to wait for at least three or five days, but who wanted to see Zhang Mao again in the afternoon of the next day. However, Zhang Mao did not come to worship in official clothes this time - Zhang Chengxun Yu Jin also hung the false title of general of Zhengxi - but wore Qi Yu mourning clothes......

Zhang Yi was shocked on the spot, and said that Qi was declining, most of which was for the loss of his brother...... Could it be that you and your brother Yu disagree on whether or not to return to Jin, so you can't slaughter him?! , my line of work has made great changes in Liangzhou, no matter whether things are successful or not, whether I am dead or alive, it is very likely that there will be a stroke in the history books in the future!

Hurriedly stepped forward to ask, Zhang Mao was in tears, and put Zhang ?? The murder is explained in general terms.

Sheet?? When you die, actually? Praseodymium ostrich? Fan's reading? Gangrene??? Hum Woo?? Conghua, when he heard the news, he hurriedly handed over the demon - if he has a good one in my hands, I can't wash it by jumping into the Yellow River! So Zhang Su, Song Pei and others took the lead, killed more than 100 Liu Hong's henchmen, and split Liu Hongche in the city, and cut out his heart to sacrifice Zhang ??。

After reporting the situation, Zhang Mao said: "The first brother's widowed son, who was young and did not reach the crown, could not bear the heavy responsibility, so he was temporarily taken in Liangzhou by the group of bureaucrats...... The edict is unbearable, and I hope that Zhang Jun will return to Luo and explain the matter to Hua Tianzi...... "You are here to canonize my brother, but my brother is no longer there, sorry, let you run in vain."

Zhang Yi was once attached to Wang Gong, and Yu Luozhong secretly colluded with the officials, and he could be regarded as having struggled on the secret front, so after listening to Zhang Mao's words, he immediately made up the plot of 10,000 words of brothers and cannibalism...... Thinking about it again, maybe it was the Liangzhou general who wanted to use this move to avoid expressing his position in time?

No matter how much you don't decide, you can hang me for a month at most, and you have to give a clear answer. But if it's because of Zhang?? When he died, he sent me back and asked the Son of Heaven to issue a new edict, and it would take at least three months to go back and forth...... No, I must have thought too much, this road is too unbelievable, unless Zhang?? It was originally a puppet. However, is Zhang Anxun a marionette of Liangzhou generals and wealthy families? How can it be!

The special Lao Tzu even had the heart to be martyred, but he didn't expect to return empty-handed like this......

So he comforted Zhang Mao a few words first, asked him to mourn and change, and then changed his words, and tactfully asked the other party to express his position: "I can return to Luo, please don't give an edict to the court, but whether Liangzhou will obey Wanghua or not, I still hope that Zhang Jun will ...... Zhang Gong made a quick decision. Zhang Gong can temporarily take charge of Liangzhou affairs, and inherit the title and position of his brother, but he must also serve Zhengshuo and Yi Guanfu ......"

The dress system of the Hua Dynasty is different from that of the Jin Dynasty, of course, the main body of civil officials is still the traditional top and bottom, wearing a beam crown, but when it comes to accessories and clothing colors, there must be a difference after all. Since the Han and Wei dynasties, officials, especially high-ranking officials, have prepared clothes of the four seasons, which are of different colors, but the most common ones are those that are in line with the virtues of the dynasty. For example, Han Huode, ochre (the big red printing and dyeing technology is not up to par, it is relatively rare); Wei Tude, yellow; Jin Jinde, white.

After Pei should practice Zuo, he thinks that this system is too chaotic, and it is not good-looking - although the four o'clock sacrifices, when wearing seasonal clothes, but in normal times, some people wear the color of virtue, some people wear the color of the season, at least two colors in the court, how dazzling. Therefore, only one set of public uniforms is ordered.

Someone jumped out and said that if you want to set the color of the suit, you must first determine the virtue, then I am towards the water virtue, and I can't run properly. Of course, the official uniforms of officials cannot be black all over the body, just like BLACK MAN, there must be edges, lines, embroidery, and other variegated colors, so according to Pei Gai's aesthetics, the official uniforms are mainly black and red, which are more suitable and pleasing to the eye.

Zhang Yi meant, the official position can be temporary, please ask the court to issue a new edict, but your attitude has to be determined first, it is impossible to drag it for several months, and the color of the clothes and the flag are all unchanged, so what is it? In order to prompt Zhang Mao to make a quick decision, he also gave Zhang ?? The clothes, sections, ribbons, and seals were all displayed, holding the seal box in his hand, and said to Zhang Mao: "This is the seal awarded by the imperial court to the respected brother, the chapter is not signed, and Zhang Gong can take it first." ”

Zhang Mao looked at the black and red wooden box with gold on the edges, and after a little hesitation, he said, "What is the chapter?" I wonder if Shigeru may have a first look? ”

Zhang Yi said of course you can-since your brother is gone, Liangzhou is your main business, you are naturally qualified to look at it-so he opened the seal box and asked Zhang Mao to take out the seal with both hands to see. Zhang Mao suddenly saw his seal, his eyes couldn't help but froze, and his breathing became heavy......

Sheet?? Yu Jin is the Duke of Xiping, when the purple ribbon gold medal is used, the seal Zhang Mao is naturally common. According to the system at that time, only the seal of the emperor or the queen and the princes and kings were allowed to use jade, plus Xizhou was relatively barren, and Zhang's father and son were not good at collecting money, so Zhang Mao had only seen the jade seal once in his life-

That was five years ago, Lan Chi Chang Zhao?] The sergeant Zhang Bing, it is said that he occasionally got a jade seal with the words "Emperor's Seal", which was specially dedicated to Zhang ??。 Zhang Mao and the ministers congratulated, Zhang ?? But he said: "I am often angry with Yuan's original elbow, why do you suddenly say this!" "Send someone to send that jade seal to Chang'an.

At that time, Pei entered the customs and was planning to guard Dali City.

However, if it is made in China, the prince can also be allowed to use jade seals, so in order to appease Zhang ??,, Pei Cai specially ordered to engrave a seal with jade, and make a tiger button - Zhang Mao was shocked by this. He was stunned for a while, then he cautiously stretched out his hands, took out the jade seal from the box, turned it over and looked at the seal, and wrote "Young Fu Liangzhou Mu Fulu Gong" Eight seal characters - ah, it is still tailor-made for my brother.

I couldn't bear to put it down for a long time.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Yi couldn't help but be secretly happy in his heart, so he said: "Why is Zhang Gong not subject to this seal?" Since the prince has the ambition of respecting his brother, presumably the imperial court will also give the title to the respected brother, so that Zhang Gong will inherit it. ”

When Zhang Mao heard this, he was shocked, and hurriedly returned the jade seal to the box, saying "I don't dare". Zhang Yi asked, what don't you dare? Zhang Mao said: "The first brother has his own heirs, and he should inherit the duke of Fulu County, and Mao will temporarily lead the Liangzhou pastor, and he will not dare to take the title of his nephew." ”

Zhang Yi was overjoyed and said: "Since Duke Zhang has led Liangzhou, how can he not have the seal of the imperial court to rely on?" I can use it temporarily on behalf of my nephew, I will go to Luozhong, and naturally play the son of tomorrow, and even seal the Duke of Zhang, don't engrave the jade seal. ”

Since Zhang Mao said that he did not dare to take away his nephew's title, and he was only temporarily taking the position of Liangzhou pastor, it showed that he recognized the official position and title of the Hua Dynasty, isn't this a euphemism?

As Song Pei said, in fact, Zhang Chengxun didn't have the intention of going all the way to the black with the Sima family, he was just worried about Zhang?? Since then, the father and son have been rich and noble, but they have no hope of inheriting Liangzhou, and over time, they will inevitably be marginalized. After all, Zhang?? Once served in Luoyang for a long time, Zhang Liang was sick for a time and couldn't speak, so he let his youngest son who was with him temporarily take Liangzhou, which inevitably made Zhang Chengxun have the idea of winning the heir. But then Zhang?? came back, and Zhang Liang also made it clear that he was the heir, and Zhang Mao put a break in his ambitions.

He just wanted to use his brother's military might to force the Hua Dynasty to give the Zhang family greater benefits, so he was expected to get a piece of the pie. But now that his brother is dead, his nephew is still young, and the ministers are all recommended to temporarily take charge of Liangzhou's affairs for the sake of Liangzhou's Antai, whether it is from the Hua faction or from the Jin faction, then Liangzhou is in the palm of his hand, is it necessary for him to fight with the Hua Dynasty again?

After all, Zhang Chengxun was respected by his descendants in history as a figure of King Cheng and Taizong, how could he not see the situation clearly?

——————————

Before Zhang Yi came to Guzang, in fact, the edict of the Hua Dynasty had already arrived in Nanzheng in advance.

The military group visited Zhou was relatively small and weak, although it had been retired, there were only 20,000 or 30,000 people, and most of the ordnance and materials relied on Guanzhong, and they had to exchange food for the Pei family, so the exchanges between the two sides were very close. In addition, Tao Zhan, the son-in-law of Zhou Wan, is the eldest son of Tao Kan, and there is still Gao Leju in Nanzheng in the Guanzhong Army to assist Zhou Shida in training, so it should not be difficult for Pei to come and accept Zhou Yu.

But even so, you can't belittle the other party, because according to Tao Kan, Zhou Shida Jiang Gui's nature is old and spicy, if he refuses to respect him, he is afraid of twists and turns. The titles and positions given by the Hua Dynasty to Zhou were:

Zheng Erpin General Jiazhuguo General, Zhijie, Governor Liang Yizhu Military, Liangzhou Assassin History, Feng Nanzheng County Gong.

At the same time, Tao Zhan was the county guard of Hanzhong, and Zhou Fu was the colonel and the captain of the Nanban school.

Zhou Shida warmly received the envoys, but he did not say anything about receiving the edict and being more obedient, but first asked for the jade seal of "Zhuguo General Liangzhou Assassin Shi Nan Zheng Gong", put it on the case, and looked at it.

Zhou Fu, Tao Zhan and the others stood on both sides, waiting for a long time, but they couldn't help but look at each other when they didn't see the adults express their opinions. In the end, Zhou Fu had the courage to speak first, and asked, "Yu Hua's edict, do you accept it?" If you have already made up your mind, you hope to teach us to wait; If you are still hesitant, you can also consult the group to ......"

Zhou Wan raised his eyes, glanced at his son, and said slowly, "Don't worry." ”

Tao Zhan smiled bitterly: "How can you say that there is no urgency in this matter? Then he handed it over: "My father also has a letter, and the son of Yunhua has great hopes for the adults, and is about to subsidize grain and straw, equipment, and even transfer troops to help, so that the adults can quell the Ba Yi and restore the southwest." The adult is in Hanzhong, and he is directly a dikou, if he has nothing to do with it, he is afraid that the situation will be critical, so the son-in-law thinks ......"

Zhou Wanyi waved his hand, interrupted him, and said, "What is the situation, do I not know?" However, in the world, there are things that we know cannot be done but must do, how can we advance and retreat specifically because of the situation? If the cloud situation is in full swing, when the former Hu is blazing, there is also Du in the south of the Yangtze RiverWaiting for chaos, do you want me to lower my beard, or go to attach Du? |Isn't it possible? The eldest husband should make up his mind first, revert to struggle, or reverse the trend, that is, irreversible, and he will not hesitate to die; How can there be a reason to see the momentum and pitch and turn around with the wind? ”

When Zhou Fu heard this, he asked: "What does the adult mean, is it to still serve Jinshuo and turn against Hua?" ”

Zhou Shida sneered and said: "I am determined to be martyred, first to suppress the thieves, and to reconquer Bayi, who is a person in the world, and not a slave of his Sima family, why bother to die with him?" ”

The two sons were at a loss, saying that you don't plan to follow China in response to the situation, and you don't want to go to the dark along the Sima family, so what are your plans? Actually, you don't have an idea in your own mind, do you?

Zhou Wan leaned back, "haha" and laughed: "I have already made up my mind, but I have something to do." "I'll have to wait for news before I can make a final decision.

Tao Zhan asked: "What the adults said, isn't it the news of Jiankang?" "Since Sima Ye has abdicated, and in addition to him, the main branch has withered, and the one with the highest prestige and the strongest power in the other branches must be regarded as Sima Rui, the king of Danyang. Sima Rui sits in Jiankang, nominally the lord of Jiangnan, and the Hua Dynasty is trying to destroy the karma, and he can't beat it for a while, so Sima Rui is likely to be instigated by the ministers and practice Zuo to ascend the throne in order to continue the Jin Zuo, or although he has the title of king, he still serves Jin Shuo.

It's like when Liu Bei was in Shuzhong, claiming to be the king of Hanzhong. Wait until the Wei and Han Chan dynasties, it is rumored that Emperor Xian has been harmed by Cao Pi, Liu Bei is mourning, and then I heard that there is no such thing, Liu Xie is still alive and well, and was named the king of Shanyang by the Wei Dynasty, but he still takes the name of Shao Xu Yanhan and ascends the throne by himself. At that time, some people persuaded that the emperor was still there, but he was coerced by the Cao family, and there was no essential difference from the original situation.

Now although Sima Rui's authority has moved downward, when it comes to the power of his entire group, it is no worse than Liu Bei back then, and in terms of blood, it is closer to the heavenly family than Liu Bei, so it is very likely that he will practice Zuo at the instigation of the ministers. However, Sima Rui has always been loyal, and even a little weak, he may not dare to ascend to the throne, but he may not be willing to serve the Chinese Dynasty, or he may plan to divide the river first, and then decide his own future in response to the changes in the situation in the world.

So my father-in-law, are you waiting for the news of Jiankang to see how King Danyang makes a statement?

Zhou Wan smiled: "Why worry about Jiankang? I'm dedicated to Wuchang's letter. ”

Tao Zhan nodded when he heard this, and said in his heart that this is the case - Wang Dun is in Wuchang, with heavy troops, if he refuses to follow China, then my family still has confidence, and I can protect the king of Danyang with him; If Wang Chuzhong also goes from China, the Jiankang regime will become an empty shell, then there is no need for us to insist on anything.

Who wants to listen to Zhou Wan's hand shoot a few cases, snorted coldly, and said: "If Wang Dun follows China, I will still serve Jinshuo, if he does not follow, I will accept Hua Jue and Lu." In short, it is not the same as the fang, but the same dynasty! ”
