Zhao Ting and Li Shu originally had a good impression of each other, plus the two were designated by their parents to go on a blind date, and after a night of playing until dawn on the Shangyuan Festival, the relationship between the two skyrocketed. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After a few days of getting along, the two sides already love each other and have deep feelings. On the eighteenth day of the first month, the two discussed going to the Baqiao military camp to play, but the barracks did not allow irrelevant people to enter, let alone women to enter casually, so Zhao Ting had to find Li Shu a smaller armor and let her put it on, and the woman disguised as a man as his entourage.

Early in the morning, the two rode a horse to the Baqiao military camp, but at the gate of the barracks, they saw a carriage with the specifications of a four-grade minister, a middle-aged official rubbed his hands and kept walking back and forth in place, looking a little anxious, and two family members stood aside.

Zhao Ting and Li Shu couldn't help but glance at the middle-aged official a few more times when they saw this situation, and at this time, the captain of the camp gate recognized Zhao Ting, and hurriedly stepped forward to hug his fists and smiled: "It turned out to be the second son, aren't you in Huayin?" Why do you have time to go back to Chang'an? ”

Zhao Ting and Li Shu didn't get off their horses, they clasped their fists and smiled and said, "Captain Chang, my father said that you have worked very hard to raise food, grass and ordnance while staying here, won't this let me come back to see you?" ”

The captain of the camp gate was overjoyed: "Oh, the second son is so good at talking, he was so moved to tears when he saw his humble position!" Come on, don't you open the camp door for the second son! ”

The camp gate then opened, and Zhao Ting hugged his fists and said, "Captain Chang, slow down, let's go in first!" ”

"How can two people ride a horse?" Captain Chang thought to himself, and shouted at the backs of Zhao Ting and Li Shu: "Second son, there is still a horse in the humble position, why don't you send someone to send it to you later?" ”

Zhao Ting, who had already ridden into the camp, waved his hand: "No need, thank you!" ”

The middle-aged official who was waiting anxiously next to the camp gate just now stepped forward and asked, "This general, who went in just now?" ”

Captain Chang said: "It's the handsome second son of my family!" ”

"It turned out to be him!"

Zhao Ting and Li Shu rode into the barracks, Zhao Ting remembered the official wearing a four-grade official uniform next to the camp gate just now and asked, "Lady, do you know the official standing by the camp gate just now?" ”

Li Shu said: "I don't go out often, and I rarely pay attention to the affairs of the court, I don't know this person!" ”

Zhao Ting didn't care, he rode his horse and trotted, and all the generals and soldiers he met along the way greeted him one after another, and watched Cen Shen walk towards this side from a distance, he stopped and asked, "Uncle Cen, how do you know that I'm here?" I also came out to greet me in person, you see that I am embarrassed! ”

"Huh?" Cen Shen was speechless for a while, "It turns out that the second son is here, and there is an old friend from outside the camp, I have to go and see it!" By the way, the second son is not training in Huayin, why did he run back? ”

"Uncle Cen didn't come to greet me, it's so sad!" Zhao Ting made a joke and said: "My father sent me to send the third aunt back to Chang'an for the Shangyuan Festival, maybe I have to go back in a few days, why don't I come over to have fun while I still have time!" ”

Cen Shen shook his head helplessly: "Only the second son, you dare to joke with Uncle Cen." Alright, go play on your own, I have to go. By the way, why don't you two ride a horse, and you are not afraid of breaking the horse, go to the stable to get a horse, just say that I said it! ”

Zhao Ting hurriedly beat his horse and walked in the direction of the school field, so as not to be seen by Cen Shen, if Zhao Ziliang learned that he brought the woman to the barracks to play, he was afraid that his butt would be swollen again.

Cen Shen walked to the gate of the camp and saw the middle-aged official standing at the gate of the camp, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Oh, Brother Wang, I have kept you waiting for a long time, forgive your sins!" ”

Wang Jin hurriedly bowed his hand and said: "It's the little brother who came in a hurry and disturbed Brother Cen to handle official business!" ”

Cen Shen hurriedly said: "What did Brother Wang say, you and I are classmates in the same year, since I returned to Chang'an, the younger brother has been going to your mansion to visit Brother Wang, but there are many military affairs in the army, and I really can't get out of it, but I still have to bother Brother Wang to come to see the younger brother, the younger brother really can't go, it's cold enough outside, let's go to the camp to talk, please!" ”

"Brother Cen, please!"

The two came to Cen Shen's tent, Cen Shen ordered people to serve tea, and a charcoal fire was lit in the tent, and the temperature in the tent quickly warmed up.

Cen Shen greeted: "Brother Wang, the conditions in the army are limited, there is only some coarse tea, I really don't want to go, another day, the younger brother will have a banquet in the drunken fairy building in Chang'an City, please Brother Wang don't dislike it today, come and come, drink tea!" ”

Wang Jin hurriedly said: "Brother Cen is too outward, what kind of friendship did you and I have back then, where is the accountant more than these?" ”

Cen Shen sighed: "That's right! I haven't seen him for more than ten years, but Brother Wang is already a waiter in the official residence and criminal department, and he is proud of the spring breeze, and now he is a good age to display his talents! ”

Wang Jin pointed at Cen Shen and said with a smile: "Brother Cen, you are no worse than me, Zhao Dashuai is now an official lieutenant, deputy marshal of the Eastern Rebellion Expedition, and a hussar general, you are a real Zhengyi, you are his right-hand man, and now your official position is higher than mine, but you are envious of me, not a son of man, not a son of man!" ”

The two looked at each other and immediately laughed.

After a small talk, the two talked about their situation over the years, and talked about the situation of other classmates, and they couldn't help but sigh.

Turned to noon, Wang Jin said that he had booked a table in the Zuixian Building in Chang'an City, and invited Cen Shen to the banquet, the two were not an ordinary relationship, Cen Shen was gracious, but he could only be disrespectful, and explained the affairs of the camp to his subordinates and went to Chang'an Zuixian Lou with Wang Jin.

After getting on the wine table, Cen Shen knew that Wang Jin must have something to do when he came to him, so after three rounds of drinking, Cen Shen asked: "Brother Wang has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, and when he came to see the little brother today, there must be something, so you might as well say it directly!" ”

Wang Jin put down the wine cup when he heard this, and said, "Brother Cen's eyes are like torches!" In fact, the younger brother came to visit Brother Cen this time for the sake of his brother Wang Wei! ”

Cen Shen was stunned: "What's wrong with Brother Ling Wang Wei?" ”

"Brother Cen didn't know, last year the rebels invaded Chang'an City, it happened that my brother Wang Wei was captured by the rebels in Chang'an, the rebel general Sun Xiaozhe asked his brother's name, threatened his life with the whole family, and coerced his brother to be a puppet official, my brother is not afraid of death, but there are dozens of people in the family, how can the rebels be harmed? I can only endure the pain of being a puppet official against my will, but it didn't take two days for the Beiting Army to come back, and my brother was imprisoned for being a puppet official, and now King Feng, as the Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, is trying this kind of case, and his brother's case will be tried soon, His Majesty is also staring at this trial, and he also sent three officials to watch, and His Royal Highness King Feng does not dare to slack off. If he really wants to be convicted, my brother is only afraid that he will be killed. The younger brother has thought about the way to think about it, and after thinking about it, there is only Brother Cen to go, and I hope that Brother Cen will mediate one or two, if you need to spend some money, please Brother Cen just speak, the little brother and the family and the whole family are grateful! ”

"I see!" Cen Shen frowned after speaking, thought for a while and said: "If someone else is acting for Jingzhao Mansion, the younger brother may be able to think of a way, but now that King Feng Li Heng is in charge of Jingzhao Mansion, I, Cen Shen, am only an auxiliary official in the final analysis, and His Royal Highness King Feng may not be willing to sell me Cen someone's face!" If my family is willing to come forward and say something, this matter will be easy to handle! By the way, as far as the younger brother knows, when Brother Ling and my marshal were in Hexi, they were also colleagues, and they had some friendships. ”

Wang Jin hurriedly said: "Please also ask Brother Cen to introduce Zhao Dashuai for the younger brother no matter what, the younger brother knows that Brother Cen is a person, and he doesn't dare to pollute Brother Cen's quality with goods stained with copper smell, and when Brother Cen is useful to find the younger brother in the future, just speak!" ”

Cen Shen said: "Brother Wang's words are serious, and it is actually not a big deal to talk about Brother Ling's affairs, in that situation, the lives of dozens of people in the family are pinched in the hands of others, who can be so righteous that they don't care about the lives of dozens of people in the whole family?" Brother Ling was just unlucky and was implicated by others, and besides, his situation was different from others, and the other officials on trial took the initiative to surrender to the enemy and Brother Ling was coerced, so how could he be dealt with like everyone else? ”

Wang Jin sighed: "What Brother Cen said is very true! ”

Cen Shen thought for a while and said: "That's it, there will be a batch of ordnance to be escorted to Huayin in two days, and the younger brother will also report to the marshal about the ordnance building and the signs of new soldiers. ”

Wang Jin was overjoyed, and bowed his hand again and again: "So there is Brother Lao Cen!" ”

On the twentieth day of the first month, Wang Jin asked the yamen of the criminal department for a few days of sick leave, and went to Huayin with Cen Shen, and the emperor also issued a holy decree on the matter of Zhao Ting and Li Shu, the lord of Yining, canonized Li Shu as the princess of Yining, and married Zhao Ting, the specific marriage is to be determined, the relationship between Zhao Ting and Li Shu is officially determined, and the task of Mrs. Meng's trip to Chang'an is also successfully completed, Zhao Ting bid farewell to Li Shu, and escorted Mrs. Meng back to Huayin on the twentieth day of the first month, just walking with Cen Shen and Wang Jin.

On the afternoon of the twenty-third day of the first month, Mrs. Meng, Zhao Ting, Cen Shen and Wang Jin and other people arrived in Huayin, Cen Shen wanted to escort the ordnance to the Tang army camp of the Eastern Expedition, Zhao Ting escorted Mrs. Meng back to the marshal's mansion, Wang Jin went into the city first to find an inn in Huayin City to settle down, Huayin County Commander somehow learned that Wang Jin came to Huayin, and took a few officials to the inn to visit Wang Jin.

Cen Shen entered the city after handing over the ordnance, Wang Jin sent his entourage to find Cen Shen, and informed Wang Jin's inn, Cen Shen first went to the marshal's mansion to see Zhao Ziliang, reported the situation of ordnance raising and conscription during this time, and finally mentioned Wang Wei's matter.

Zhao Ziliang sighed after listening to Wang Wei's matter: "I can't imagine that Judge Wang has fallen to this step now, with his situation, if he is sentenced to be killed, he is indeed a little wronged, where is Wang Jin now?" ”

Cen Shen said: "It's in the inn in the city, if the handsome wants to see him, you can do it at any time!" ”

Zhao Ziliang thought for a while and said: "Judge Wang had some friendship with me back then, although he was indifferent to fame and fortune and was not suitable for being an official, but he did not violate the law and discipline in that position, and his talent in poetry was also outstanding. In this way, tomorrow I will go to the barracks to inspect military affairs, and tonight you bring Wang Jin to the Marshal's Mansion, and I will meet him! ”

"No!"

In fact, Zhao Ziliang still has some opinions on Wang Wei, when Gai Jiayun went to serve as the envoy of Hexi Jiedu, Wang Wei was still the judge of Hexi Jiedu, Gai Jiayun was proud of his high merits, and after arriving in Hexi, he indulged in a luxurious life all day long, and did not think about deploying military defense, so that he was killed by Tubo to the hinterland of Hexi. This is inaction in Zhao Ziliang's view, so he has a bad opinion of Wang Wei. (To be continued.) )
