Everyone walked out of the half-pillar incense kung fu again, and after turning a corner, they suddenly entered a very quiet alley. The noise of the street suddenly fell to the back of his mind, and he could not be heard.

It was originally a tall forest, separating the downtown and the alley, and the alley became a quiet place in the middle of the noise. The alley road is quite open, and there are high doors on both sides, and the gates are locked. A group of guards, fully dressed and armed with spears, marched through.

Jiang Wei secretly thought: "In the middle of the noise, it is heavily guarded, and in modern times, this is the standard configuration of the rich area." ”

Dong Yun said: "The new house is at the end of this alley. This place is the treasure land of feng shui in the city, every inch of land is gold, it was originally the place where the public security prince (Liu Zhang) divided the heirs and confidants, and after the lord entered Yizhou, he gave all the idle houses here to the old ministers. ”

He raised his finger and said: "Look here, the mansion on the left is owned by the former general Guan Yu, and the mansion on the right is the mansion of the right general Zhang Fei." ”

Jiang Wei and the others followed and looked, only to see that the two buildings were facing each other on the left and right, both of which were high-rise, and they couldn't see the end at a glance. Under the door, there are two huge stone lions, with their teeth and claws, staring at each other.

Jiang Wu had never seen such a big mansion in his life, and he was afraid that it would be more than twice as big as Tianshui Taishou's mansion here, so he couldn't help but say: "Can a family live in such a big house?" ”

Dong Yun was amused by his rustic appearance: "General Zhang is sitting in Langzhong right now, and there are only three children living in the mansion right now. Guan Junhou's family is far away in Jingzhou, and he has never lived in this mansion for a day. ”

He paused, and then said: "The two generals Guan and Zhang are married to the Lord Righteous Jinlan, and their love is stronger than Jin, which is not comparable to others. There is no third place in the whole city to find a mansion like this. ”

Everyone turned right from Zhang Fei's mansion, and saw that the regulations of the houses behind them were different, and they were not as good as the first Guanzhang Second Mansion. Under Dong Yun's introduction one by one, Jiang Wei successively heard the names of General An Han Lu Zhu, General Zhaode Jian Yong, Bingzhong General Sun Qian and others.

These people followed Liu Bei to the north and south, and now they are all given to live here. In this way, there is no doubt that the people who live near the left side of this alley are its origins.

After passing through three or five more households, Dong Yun stopped under the door of a medium regulation, turned around and said, "This is it." One of his attendants pulled a bunch of keys from his sleeve and squeaked, and the door opened.

This is a three-entry courtyard, sitting north and facing south, on the left hand side of the gate are three south rooms, for the male servants of the family to live, on the right hand side of the carriage and horse room, not only a small stable, but also a room for carriages and sundries.

The courtyard in the middle covers a wide area, more than twice as large as the yard of the old house in Tianshui, with a layer of bluestone finely paved, there is no weed on the ground, and it looks very neat. Directly opposite is the main hall, with tables and chairs in the middle, and the dust is not clean. The two sides of the main hall have ear rooms, one for the study and the other for the bedroom. The two wings on the left and right sides of the courtyard are set up opposite each other.

Passing through the main hall, you will arrive at the backyard where the female dependents live, the style here is completely different, the courtyard is full of flowers and plants, there is also a laurel tree planted in the middle, it is the golden autumn season now, the osmanthus is fragrant, and the smell of everyone can not help but lift their spirits.

Although this mansion is not as tall and grand as half of the other houses in the alley, it is better in simple atmosphere and has the delicacy of the Southern Dynasty, which is not the same as the old residence of Tianshui back then.

Jiang Wei said to Jiang Wen and Jiang Wu: "You guys take a look around to see if there are any items missing, tomorrow when we have nothing to do, our whole family will go to the street to buy." When I found an auspicious day for the zodiac, I moved from the post house to live. ”

When Jiang Wen and Jiang Wu heard this, they were all elated, and they responded, and they ran in and out to observe at the moment.

Seeing that it was not too early, Dong Yun wanted to go back first to resume his life. Jiang Wei sent him to the door.

When it was over, Dong Yun said: "Boyo, when you first arrived, you got a generous gift from the king of Hanzhong." At present, many people are not convinced, and they are waiting to pick your thorn. You still need to be careful. ”

Jiang Wei remembered that the "Laiqing" obstructed the court meeting, and thought that Liu Bei's subordinates were full of talents at this time, and he was just a general, but he had to be courteous, saying that no one was red, which was tantamount to self-deception. Dong Yun's reminder was timely, and he immediately bowed down and hugged his fists and said, "Thank you, Master Dong, Wei Zi should be careful." ”

When he returned to the courtyard, he saw that everyone was beaming, but Ma Jun looked anxious and knew what he was thinking. She patted him on the shoulder.

"Brother Deheng, during the morning banquet, the king of Hanzhong mentioned you and ordered me to take you to Shangshuling's mansion the day after tomorrow to pay a visit, and I will be awarded the official position. This Shangshuling's surname is correct, his original place is Fufeng, and speaking of which, he is the same township as you. ”

Ma Jun's mind was peeped through, and he was a little ashamed, and when he heard that the king of Hanzhong had an arrangement, his eyes couldn't help but light up again.

On the second day, Jiang Wei led Ma Jun and took advantage of the opportunity for the whole family to go shopping on the street to carefully select some gifts, which really took a lot of thought.

After returning to the post house that day, Jiang Wei prepared a few questions that Fa Zheng should ask and taught Ma Jun to prepare carefully. It's quite like the scene before the interview in later generations, the scene of surprise training test-taking skills.

Ma Jun was originally a little nervous, but with Jiang Wei's guidance, he was a little more sure in his heart.

******

Early the next morning, after bathing and changing clothes, the two came to the Fazheng Mansion as promised.

Jiang Wei's trip had two purposes, introducing Ma Jun was naturally the proper meaning of the question, but more importantly, he wanted to persuade Fa Zheng to influence Liu Bei to order Guan Yu to withdraw his troops.

Fazheng's Shangshuling Mansion is located in the southwest corner of CD City, and when the two of them arrived, they saw that there was no one in front of the huge Shangshuling Mansion, and the door was crowded.

Later generations recorded that Fa Zheng's personality was high, quite arrogant, and he was also a person who would repay him, and he did not get along well with the ministers, and he was Liu Bei's lonely minister, so it seems that he should not be separated from ten.

A servant was waiting at the door, and when he saw the famous thorn and gift handed by Jiang Wei, he hurriedly introduced the two of them into the side hall of the mansion to serve tea.

After waiting for about a stick of incense, Fa Zheng put on a household dress and paced.

Jiang Wei hurriedly got up, clenched his fists and said, "The last general has seen Shang Shuling." He pointed to Ma Jun and said, "This is Ma Jun and Ma Deheng, the talented people who help the wind." ”

When he introduced Ma Jun, he deliberately highlighted Ma Jun's origin, just because Fa Zheng is also a Fufeng person. In ancient times, the friendship of fellow villagers was the only way to quickly bring people closer.

Ma Jun glanced at Jiang Wei gratefully, and bowed down: "The grass people help the wind Ma Jun, the word Deheng, meet Shang Shuling!" ”

Fa Zheng listened to Ma Jun's words with a little rustic accent, and saw that he lowered his eyebrows and was pleasing to his eyes, very respectful, and had a slight feeling in his heart. He is a person who loves and hates clearly, and when others respect him, he will return three points; If others do evil to him, they will have to come back with a piece of skin.

smiled and waved his hand: "Sit down." Then he walked slowly to the main seat and sat down.
