On March 23, the barbarians invaded Liaoyang, and the deputy commander-in-chief of Liaodong, Cao Yan (sound axe), led the people to resist, beheaded 431 people, captured 523 horses, and won a great victory.

Zhu Yijun summoned Zhang Juzheng into the palace in order to discuss the reward, and there were also the second assistant Zhang Siwei and the auxiliary ministers Yu Youding and Shen Shixing.

In fact, there is nothing to discuss, not long after the prisoner sacrifice ceremony, Li Chengliang's department won another big victory, it is really a happy event, according to the precedent, the reward and pension is, the focus of everyone's argument is the reward for Li Chengliang, according to Zhang Siwei's meaning, he has pacified Liaodong for many years, and he has worked hard and made great achievements, and should be transferred to Beijing to rest and rest, Yu Youding supports his suggestion, Zhu Yijun is obviously a little moved, but Zhang Juzheng knows their thoughts, but Li Chengliang has repeatedly made military exploits to prevent his high achievements from shocking the master.

"Liaodong is in turmoil, the people of all departments are fierce, repeatedly suppressed and rebelled, there is no general shocked, sooner or later it will become a big disaster, according to the minister's opinion, Ning Yuanbo can not move for the time being, but Liang Menglong, the governor of Jiliao, has been in Jiliao for several years, and has made quite a lot of achievements, he can be recalled to Beijing, and Wu Dui is intertwined, as for Ning Yuanbo, the new Jin has just been crowned the prince and the prince, and it is not appropriate to reward it again, isn't it also lost Chen Peng, who is not rewarded or punished, I don't know what Your Majesty thinks?"

When Zhang Youshang was in Pinggu, there was news that Wu Dui was going to exchange with Liang Menglong, the governor of Jiliao, Zhang Juzheng said so, but the old words were just recalled.

His suggestion was largely unopposed, and this time was no exception, and the matter was settled.

Zhang Juzheng declined Zhu Yijun's invitation to stay with him for lunch, and left the palace in a sedan chair, feeling a little unsteady all the way, not because of Li Chengliang's matter, but because of the rumors that suddenly appeared recently that Zhang You was his illegitimate child.

Who is the one who came out of it? Could it be that the purpose is to attack itself? After many days of secret investigation, he did not find any useful clues, so he pondered for a long time, but still couldn't think of a reason, and finally decided that he had to take the time to go to Cining Palace again and meet the Empress Dowager Li.

When he was out of his mind, he was suddenly interrupted by a commotion, picked up the small wooden hammer in front of his heels, knocked on the front baffle of the sedan chair, and heard someone outside: "Just about to return to your lordship, there are many people at the gate of our house for some reason." ”

This was the voice of Lei Xiao, the head of the guard team, Zhang Juzheng was stunned when he heard it, and his face sank suddenly: "What is You Qi doing for food?" Live in a sedan chair, the official wants to see it in person! ”

It is estimated that listening to his voice is not a taste, Lei Xiao did not dare to dissuade him, waved his hand to signal the sedan chair driver to stop the sedan chair, personally opened the sedan curtain, and hugged Zhang Juzheng down.

Zhang You was condescending, and saw an old man wearing a red python robe from a distance carrying a sedan chair from four people up and down the sedan chair, with a wisp of gray hair in front of his chest, red phoenix eyes, and a Chinese face, exuding a momentum of not being angry and arrogant, guessing that it was Zhang Juzheng, he was subconsciously stunned for a moment, and was immediately caught by the leader of the soldiers.

He didn't laugh angrily, and nodded in the direction of Zhang Juzheng: "I advise you to let go quickly, otherwise your master will be angry later, don't blame me for not reminding you!" ”

The leader of the soldiers was stunned, hurriedly turned around, and saw that it was indeed Zhang Juzheng, who was frightened when he landed, let go of Zhang You like an electric shock, and took a few steps back, and the rest of the soldiers saw this, and they stopped their momentum and retreated to the side.

You Qi didn't see Zhang Juzheng, he was furious when he saw this, and shouted with a blue face: "Okay, you guys, you don't even listen to me, see how I ...... when the master comes back." Don't drag me, the tiger doesn't threaten, I'm really a sick cat, right? I ......"

In the midst of loud laughter, Zhang Juzheng walked behind You Qi with a calm face and asked, "What do you want?" Isn't it enough to lose face? After saying that, he didn't look at him, and went straight up the steps, Zhang You bowed his hand: "Zhang You of the Xiaguan Gewu Office, I have seen Lord Yuanfu!" ”

You Qi was stunned, already stupid.

"You are Zhang You?" Zhang Juzheng looked up and down, and said as he walked into the gate: "No wonder they all call you 'Zhang Tiejiao'...... What's the matter, come in and talk about it, so many people are around, and it's not a monkey. ”

Co-author, this is to blame for not kowtowing to you? Zhang You followed Zhang Juzheng into the gate behind his fart, You Qi also reacted, trotted forward to lead the way, until the flower hall, opened the door in person, but Zhang Juzheng ignored him, only let Zhang You wait for a while, and went to the back hall with his hand.

The flower hall is simply furnished, but a few Taishi chairs, only in front of the window there are several pots of flowers in full bloom, Zhang You can't call out the name, only feel that the fragrance hits people, very beautiful.

The people of Zhang's house did not dare to carry the corpse into the house, waiting outside the door, only Zhang Jialin and Shen Wan'er Zhang Ruoxuan followed into the flower hall, the three of them were very restrained, and they did not sit next to them, but Zhang You didn't care, after admiring the flowers, he still didn't see Zhang Juzheng appearing, so he simply walked to a Taishi chair and sat down.

The porter also followed, and when he saw it, he wanted to scold a few words, but suddenly saw You Qi's face was pale, and he looked depressed, and he suddenly woke up, and lowered his head when he was busy, and beat a small drum in his heart.

In addition to the crown clothes, Zhang Juzheng changed into a light silk cotton robe, and first found Lei Chen, the leader of the soldiers, to ask about the incident, and asked him to call all the heads and faces in the mansion to the flower hall, and then walked to the front hall with a calm face.

When he was about to arrive at the flower hall, Mrs. Wang got the news and hurried over, her face was a little frightened, she didn't dare to speak, and only followed behind his ass.

At this time, all the people in Zhang's mansion have been called to the flower hall, including Zhang Yunxiu and Zhang Jingxiu, although the flower hall is spacious, it is crowded with more than 20 people at once, and it seems crowded, everyone stands there and talks to each other, only Zhang You sits alone, it looks a little weird.

Zhang Juzheng and his wife entered the flower hall together, a room of finches suddenly quieted down, and they knelt on the ground with a brush, Zhang Jialin and Shen Wan'er squatted down to salute, Zhang You also stood up from the Taishi chair, bowed, but still did not kneel.

"Zicheng is a guest, sit down! Ruoxuan, take Wan'er and this young lady to your yard. Zhang Juzheng sat down and commanded casually.

Zhang Jialin glanced at Zhang You deeply, and then followed Shen Wan'er and Zhang Ruoxuan out of the flower hall with anxiety, and Zhang You sat back in place in a dignified manner, without being polite to Zhang Juzheng at all.

"You Seven!" Zhang Juzheng ignored Zhang You and shouted in a deep voice.

"The little ones are here!" As soon as Zhang Juzheng appeared, You Qi knew that something was wrong, and at this moment, seeing Zhang Juzheng actually let Zhang You sit down, his heart had already sunk to the bottom, and he walked from the crowd to Zhang Juzheng and his wife, and knelt down with a puff: "The little one is guilty, and I beg the old man to read it for the sake of the little one who has followed him for many years, and spare the little one!" ”
