Chapter Forty-Six: Yang Wu's Novices

Early the next morning, Yang Wu received the news that his proposal had been approved by his father, and Zhang Hao had been transferred to the Yawai Army and would go to the front line to make meritorious contributions. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

After receiving the news, Yang Wu was completely relieved.

In retrospect, he was still a little incredulous, the night before yesterday, he was still on the boat worried about Xu Wen and Zhang Hao's rebellion in the future; But now, only two days later, he successfully drove Zhang Hao out of the pro-army.

In his opinion, the key to the success of Zhang Hao and Xu Wen in their rebellion was that they mastered the pro-army left by Yang Xingmi. This meant that they could isolate themselves from the inside and outside, and the local generals who held great power would check and balance each other and not dare to raise an army to resist. Five generations have changed, and many dynasties have been replaced in this way.

Now that Zhang Hao has driven out of the pro-army, he naturally doesn't have to worry about how much harm he can cause.

"The next thing is to find a way to deal with Xu Wen. However, this person is obviously much more difficult to deal with than Zhang Hao. ”

Zhang Hao has been repeated many times, and he is domineering, and there are many generals in the army who look at him unpleasantly. In the past, because Yang Xingmi trusted him and appointed him as the commander of the pro-army, everyone was afraid of committing taboos, so they didn't dare to ask. But this time he had a small mistake, and with Yang Wu taking the lead, with the support of many generals, he succeeded in one fell swoop.

However, Xu Wen is different, he was one of the "thirty-six heroes" under Yang Xingmi, with profound qualifications, and few people can compare. And he has been conscientious for so many years, although he has not made great achievements, but there is nothing wrong with him; In addition, he is low-key, and although many generals have no deep friendship with him, they have a good relationship.

Therefore, it is obviously impossible to deal with him with Zhang Hao, and he must wait until he really makes a big mistake; However, with Xu Wen's caution, where can he make a big mistake. This made Yang Wu feel a little frustrated, his current enemy was not Zhang Hao, but Xu Wen, who was low-key.

What's more, yesterday he had just heard about Xu Wen's suggestion to Yang Xingmi to use a small boat to transport military rations, and knew that history had not changed at this point, and Yang Xingmi would definitely feel that Xu Wen had the foresight to gradually reuse him in the future.

"It seems that it is impossible to deal with Xu Wen for the time being, so I can only take one step at a time."

After breakfast, Yang Wu was about to go to the military camp outside the city to receive new soldiers, when Fan Yu came in and reported with a strange face, "Childe, there is a person outside who came to ask for a meeting, saying that he was sent by the king." ”

"Oh, what is it? Do you know what your father asked him to do? ”

"This subordinate doesn't know, and Childe will naturally know after seeing him."

Yang Wu looked at his strange look, felt a little inexplicable, and didn't think much about it, and asked him to bring someone in.

Soon, Fan Yu came in with a middle-aged man in his forties, and as soon as the man saw Yang Wu, he knelt on the ground and exclaimed: "Villain Cheng Xun to meet Gongzi!" ”

His voice was very high-pitched, which made everyone around him shiver when they heard it.

Yang Wu was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Are you a eunuch?" ”

The face of the man named Cheng Xun flashed with anger, and then turned into bitterness, he lowered his head and said, "Exactly."

Only then did Yang Wu react, this person was really a eunuch. However, unlike what he imagined, the eunuch in front of him was full of masculinity except for his high-pitched voice, and if he hadn't admitted it himself, he would have thought that he had misunderstood just now.

He nodded and asked with some curiosity, "Are you a heavenly eunuch or a ......?" The latter words did not come out, but the meaning was very clear.

Cheng Xun's face became even more bitter, and he said in a low voice, "The villain is a heavenly eunuch." ”

Yang Wu is a little strange, the eunuch power in the last years of the Tang Dynasty was very strong, dominating the political situation in the last years of the Tang Dynasty for hundreds of years, and even the emperor was allowed to be abolished by them, and even the emperor's forbidden army "Shence Army" was completely controlled by them, which can be said to be the strongest era of eunuchs in Chinese history. Generally, most of the people who are eunuchs will enter the palace and fight for wealth and nobility, but I don't know why this person in front of him did not enter the palace, but worked under Yang Xingmi.

Yang Wu didn't discriminate against the eunuchs, he just asked out of curiosity, and when he saw the look on his face, he immediately reacted.

He stepped forward and reached out to hold Cheng Xun's shoulders to help him up, and said with a smile, "Brother Cheng, please get up, I offended just now, please don't blame." ”

Cheng Xun saw that his expression was sincere, and he didn't seem to dislike his identity, but apologized to himself for what he said just now, and a trace of gratitude flashed on his face, and he hurriedly said, "The son is tormented by the little one, and the little one can't stand it." ”

After Yang Wu helped him up, he asked, "I wonder what my father sent you for?" ”

"The king heard that a master of the rivers and lakes came to assassinate the son, and he was worried, so he asked the little one to be responsible for protecting the son."

Yang Wu's eyes lit up, after seeing Wei Chixi's skills yesterday, he was not only envious, but also worried, what if another master assassinated him in the future? But now it seems that he is overthinking, and his father has already thought about this for him.

Yang Wu hurriedly asked, "I don't know how your Excellency's martial arts are?" ”

"Small martial arts are average, and when you meet a master, you can resist one or two moves at most, but you can still do it to buy a little time for your son."

Although he said it so modestly, Yang Wu didn't believe that the people specially sent by his father could only resist one or two moves from those masters.

"In that case, then you can stay with me in the future." Yang Wu nodded. He was still very relieved about the people sent by his father, knowing that Yang Xingmi would not harm him.

Cheng Xun didn't ask much, and replied with his fists clenched, "Yes, the little one is commanded." ”

Yang Wu smiled and nodded, it seems that the person in front of him is also a person who has few words. He thought for a while and asked, "Guard Cheng, since you are a heavenly eunuch, why didn't you enter the palace to fight for wealth, but served under my father?" ”

"The king's kindness to the little one is like a mountain, so the little one stays in Huainan and wants to repay the king."

It turned out that Cheng Xun was a native of Yangzhou and was born in a wealthy family. Although he was a heavenly eunuch, his parents and brothers loved him very much, and invited many famous doctors to cure his disease, who knew that the disease was not cured in the end, but let him learn a skill from one of the masters.

When Sun Ru's army ravaged Jianghuai, his family was captured by Sun Ru's soldiers, and only he relied on martial arts to save his brother's son, and his parents and brother's family died in Sun Ru's army. Later, Yang Xingmi killed Sun Ru, which can be regarded as avenging his family. So with gratitude, he took refuge in Yang Xingmi and was courteous. Since then, he has sworn allegiance to Yang Xingmi.

"I see." Yang Wu nodded, and asked again, "So your family has only one nephew?" I don't know how old he is, but he has ever been married and had children? "It has been more than ten years since Sun Ru ravaged Jianghuai, and Cheng Xun's nephew should have grown up long ago at this time.

He felt that since this person was going to become his important guard in the future, it was better to care about it.

Speaking of his nephew, Cheng Xun was a little sad, "The villain's nephew passed away five years ago, but fortunately, he has left a son, and finally didn't let my Cheng family ...... the future."

"Cheng Guard's Day mourning!" Yang Wu patted him on the shoulder, thought for a moment and asked, "How old is your nephew this year?" ”

"I just turned five this year."

Yang Wu's heart moved, and he immediately asked, "Has your nephew ever been enlightened?" My younger brother is also five years old this year, and he has asked his husband to teach him some simple articles. Why don't you let your nephew study with my brother? ”

Cheng Xun was really moved, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Thank you son, it's just that the villain's nephew is too stubborn, I'm afraid that he will bring the second son badly." ”

Yang Wu waved his hand, "What's the matter, who is not naughty with a five or six-year-old child?" ”

"Thank you so much, Childe!"

Yang Wu nodded, this Cheng Xun obviously valued his nephew very much, and he took his nephew in the mansion, not afraid that he would be disloyal.

"Okay, I'm going to the barracks, you can go with me."
