At this time, Zhang Liao said again: "We want to take care of it, but there is only one point, violations of law and discipline are not among them." ”

Before Huang Ming could say anything, Liu Qiao hurriedly got up and said, "Thank you for the general's teachings, the Liu family must abide by their duties and never do anything that violates the law and discipline!" ”

Zhang Liao nodded, thought for a while, and said, "Master Liu, I don't know if Liu Yong, the son of Ling, is willing to be an official?" If you have this intention, you can first go to Hedong Academy to learn the way of administration for a year, and if you pass the assessment, you can let the local government do things for the people. ”

Liu Qiao couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "I am willing, but it is arranged by the general." ”

Unexpectedly, Huang Ming on the side suddenly spoke: "General Yu, the day before yesterday, the county of Anhui County was afraid of the division of the imperial court, and he didn't know where to flee. ”

"Oh?" Zhang Liaojian raised his eyebrows and asked Liu Qiao: "What did the county Chengru do?" ”

Liu Qiao didn't expect Huang Ming to recommend him to be a county officer, but Zhang Liao asked so directly, he was a little flustered, and hurriedly got up and said: "No, the county is a county important position, and I am afraid that I can't do it." ”

Huang Ming said: "The head of the Liu family is literate and hyphenated, and the Liu Mansion is well organized, and he has quite a prestige in the township, which shows that he is not a foolish person, and he is familiar with the situation in Anhui County, and he is guided by the lower officials, and the position of the county is enough to be competent." ”

Zhang Liao thought for a while and said: "The head of the Liu family has a life-saving grace for me, this county can try to keep for a year, but the public and private need to be clear, I will personally assess it after a year, if it is good, it is true that it is full of age, if it is not good, it is better to continue to be the head of the family." ”

As long as the relationship with the upper and lower levels is well handled, the support and guidance of the county order, and the careful work of the county, it is relatively easy to do it, and it is also one of the best positions to get started in government affairs. Even if it is not done well, there is a county order in charge of the overall situation, and there are Zhu Cao to undertake affairs, and there will be no major incidents, so Zhang Liao did not object.

Liu Qiao didn't expect Zhang Liao to agree to Huang Ming's suggestion, he couldn't help but be stunned, his heart suddenly came to life, and when he saw Huang Ming on the side, he signaled him to agree, and immediately felt certain in his heart, and bowed respectfully and said: "The servant is willing to try to keep it." ”

Zhang Liao nodded, and his expression turned solemn: "Remember, for the government and herdsmen, you can't tolerate the slightest sloppiness, if you don't succeed, don't do it, retreat and protect your wealth, I, the general, can still do it." ”

Liu Qiao hurriedly said: "The servant should do his best, if it doesn't work, he will have no shame to let it go, and he will resign." ”

Zhang Liao smiled: "I always thought that being an official is to endure hardships and share worries for the court, so it will be hard for the head of the Liu family." Let's go, I'll go back to Anhui City with you and the others, I'm afraid that my uncle, brother Liu Yong and sister Lanzhi will already be anxious and restless. ”

Yang Han led people to collect the corpses of the dead guards, made a register according to the name, and built a martyr's shrine in Lujiang, Huang Zhong and Zang Ba went to Jiujiang and Lujiang respectively, completely swept away the remnants everywhere, and stabilized the county.

Now that he has controlled Jiujiang and Lujiang, Wancheng is already his territory, so he naturally won't rest outside the city.

When he arrived outside the tent, Xu Chu heard that Zhang Liao was going back to Anhui City, so he wanted to follow.

Zhang Liao naturally would not object, Xu Chu was his personal guard commander, and it was natural to follow him, but looking at Xu Chu, Zhang Liao remembered something and couldn't help laughing: "Zhongkang, I heard that you and the head of the Liu family have become brothers?" ”

Xu Chu grinned and said: "Exactly, the head of the Liu family has a life-saving grace to the lord, and he and I are like brothers." ”

Zhang Liao nodded, and suddenly said: "I am commensurate with the children of the Liu family, and it seems that I will call Uncle Ruxu in the future." ”

Ga? Xu Chu was dumbfounded all of a sudden, his face turned red, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he snorted: "This ...... Lord, by all means, I should call the uncle of the Liu family. ”

Let the lord call him uncle, and he will not be killed by the gang of fierce generals under the lord's command? What's more, he didn't dare to have this thought at all.

"It's okay, Zhongkang, you can hand it over." Zhang Liao laughed.

Xu Chu shook his head again and again, and saluted Liu Qiao directly: "Xu Chu has seen uncle." ”

Liu Qiao was stunned, not knowing what to do.

Huang Ming couldn't help but sigh, although the general was majestic and self-reliant, he was still very friendly, which was completely different from Yuan Shu and Liu Xun's superiority, but made him respect him more.

……

Anhui County, Liu Mansion, the twilight sun shines on the attic.

Liu Yong and Liu Lanzhi were both in the front yard, full of anxiety, restless, and their mood was like the sunset on the horizon, getting heavier and heavier.

Liu Yong went out of the house half an hour ago to find out the news from Huang County, but was told by the county master that Huang County's order was also called away by the general outside the city an hour ago, and has not returned.

This gave them more of a sense of foreboding.

"Little sister, I'll go out to investigate again!" Liu Yong couldn't help it, and said loudly: "If there is no news, I will go out of the city to see General Xu, and I must know what is going on." ”

"I'm going with my brother!" Liu Lanzhi bit her lip and said: "I saved the person, if the general really asks for the guilt, I will bear it with all my might, and I must not implicate my family." ”

"The servant will accompany the son-in-law." On the side, Xiao Ning hurriedly grabbed Liu Lanzhi tightly.

"You can't go!" Liu Yong flatly refused.

He knew his sister's appearance, and said with Er Qiao in the county, I don't know how many Junjietuo people came to the door to ask for marriage, if he went to the barracks to see those fierce soldiers, he didn't dare to imagine the consequences.

"Brother......" Liu Lanzhi was about to say more, and a family member who went out to inquire about the news suddenly stumbled in, shouting in panic: "Young master, it's not good, the soldiers and horses outside the city have entered the city!" ”

Yes? When Liu Yong heard this, he could barely stand up, and the soldiers and horses outside the city entered the city! I'm afraid my own father is ......

Liu Lanzhi's tears had already flowed down, thinking of Zhang Gongzi's determined expression when he left to protect his father's worry-free, a resentment rose in his heart for no reason, and then he felt sad, I am afraid that his father and that Zhang Gongzi have been killed, what else is there to complain about.

The only sad thing is that he saved others and implicated his family, so he should only be martyred to death.

"Father!" Liu Yong cried in grief.

"Young master, it's not good!" In the blink of an eye, another family member crawled in and shouted: "A lot of soldiers and horses are coming towards Liu's mansion!" ”

At this time, there was no need for him to say, everyone in the house could already hear the clear voice outside.

Handsome! Handsome! Handsome!

The sound of hurried and neat footsteps came from outside, and the defenders of Anhui County, who were originally guarding the door, hurriedly ran away. Powerful footsteps were heard from outside the wall, extending towards the backyard, apparently encircling the entire courtyard.

Then, the door of the mansion was opened, and twenty soldiers who were stubborn and stubborn ran in two columns neatly, without looking at the servants in the courtyard who were screaming and running around, and did not pay attention to Liu Yong and Liu Lanzhi, who were pale and pale.

Handsome! The movements of the twenty soldiers were neat and powerful, each spaced three feet apart, with straight figures, holding a spear on the right and a waist knife on the left, neatly forming a line, and a murderous aura spread in Liu's mansion.

The defenders of Anhui County are compared with these soldiers, like a crow and an eagle!

But this majestic and awe-inspiring momentum made Liu Yong, Liu Lanzhi and the people of Liu Mansion even more desperate in their hearts.

"God destroys my Liu family......" Liu Yong muttered in his mouth, looking at these terrible soldiers, his face pale. Isn't it enough that these murderers killed their father? And you want to destroy the whole race?

Liu Lanzhi's heart seemed to be tightly twisted, and the pain was extremely painful, but it was just to save someone? How could this happen!

"Sister." The maid Xiao Ning's face was bloodless, but she pulled Liu Lanzhi tightly.

The servants were even more unbearable, so frightened that they didn't even dare to move.

An atmosphere of grief and despair spread in the courtyard.

"Yong'er, Laneige, the distinguished guest has come to the door, and he is about to come out to pick up the guest!"

A cheerful voice came from the gate of the house, instantly freezing the atmosphere of grief and despair in the courtyard.

Liu Lanzhi's delicate body trembled, and endless joy surged in her heart, her father was fine, it was her father's voice!
