Chapter 431: Zhao Yun's Newlywed (II)
Although Zhao Xiong did not understand why Gao Shun suddenly appointed Zhao Feng to this important position, he still immediately carried out Gao Shun's order; When he returned to the Prefecture Pastoral Yamen, he sent people to invite Taishou and Zhao Feng and others from Xinxing County to announce Gao Shun's order.
Zhao Feng was very surprised, he had no experience in being a leader, and he was suddenly ordered, feeling that it was difficult for him to take on such a heavy responsibility, so he tried his best to resign.
Zhao Xiong is very satisfied with Zhao Feng's performance, it is very rare to have self-knowledge, recognize his own shortcomings, and have the courage to admit his shortcomings.
Xinxing County Taishou was also very satisfied with Zhao Feng's attitude, at least he was not happy about the appointment, and he could still remain so calm, he was indeed a rare talent.
Zhao Xiong explained again and again, only to dispel the doubts in Zhao Feng's heart, and reluctantly accepted the appointment, he secretly made up his mind in his heart, he must do a good job, and he must not let outsiders think that he is high to this position by nepotism, and everyone must recognize his ability, and he must not embarrass his younger brother Zhao Yun.
After the news was announced, the happiest person was Zhao Feng's wife, whose husband recovered and reached the peak of his life in one step.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, small landlords and small heroes were strong, even if they had outstanding abilities and good reputations, and they could achieve the positions of county officials, gongcao, and lords in the county.
At this time, Xu Rong had arrived in Mayi City, took over Tian Feng's position, and assumed the position of Anzhou Military Division; He is a civil and military all-rounder, can not only be a military advisor, but also can lead troops to fight, Gao Shun also took special care of him, passed the order, Zhao Yun returned to get married, led by the 10,000 cavalry, taken over by Xu Rong, the military adviser also served as a lieutenant general.
Anzhou has a strong army, but the combat power of the generals is insufficient, after Zhang Fei was transferred, only second-rate generals such as Xue Yin, Cao Xing, and Zhang Yang remained, and Xu Rong's force value was not high, and he belonged to the second-rate generals; Not long after Zhao Yun came, he was transferred away so quickly, and there were no first-class generals in Anzhou.
In mid-March, Zhao Yun finished handing over the affairs of Ma Yi and returned to Taoyuan Fort ten days ahead of schedule to prepare for marriage.
Zhao Feng's family has moved to the original house where Xu Lin lived, and the house next to the general's mansion has been renovated as the new house of Zhao Yun and Gao Feng.
The matter of marriage was worried about by his brother, sister-in-law, Gao Shun's family and others, and Zhao Yun did not need to contribute, Zhao Yun practiced with Ge Hu and others in the military camp every day, and occasionally fought with Wang Yue.
Zhao Yun has white armor and white armor, carries a silver gun, and rides a pure white war horse of the special grade, which looks like a jade tree is in the wind; His face was whiter and more delicate against the red helmet; , all those who saw it praised it.
The wedding date is set for the 28th day of the third lunar month.
Previously, Gao Shun sent a letter to the state pastors in the jurisdiction, and no official personnel were allowed to come to Taoyuan Fort to congratulate him.
Even so, there are still a lot of people who come from the people, like the Guo family in Taiyuan, who comes uninvited; Other forces also secretly sent people to give gifts, befriend Gao Shun, and hope to get Gao Shun's support.
Tao Qian, Liu Biao, Liu Xuan, Gongsun Zhan and others all sent representatives, and they simply regarded this place as a stage for foreign affairs, and Taoyuan Fort was even more lively than before the Chinese New Year.
The most surprising of these was that Cao Cao, Cheng Lian, and Chang Feng also sent secret representatives; Only the two brothers, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao, did not send anyone to come.
The wedding was very grand and lively; The great Confucian Cai Yong presided over the wedding, which was carried out in strict accordance with the etiquette of the time, which made Zhao Feng and others feel that they had face.
Gao Feng is gorgeous and charming, Zhao Yun is suave, it is really a perfect match, and a god-given marriage.
The wedding process left a deep impression on everyone, and after that, the groom rode a white horse to greet his relatives, and the bride made a sedan chair to marry, which became the standard configuration of the rich family to marry the daughter.
Gao's mother was in a good mood, her daughter finally got married, the big stone in her heart finally landed, and her son-in-law was so handsome, she was very satisfied.
Zhao Feng's family is also very beautiful, and they show their faces well in front of everyone, especially the sister-in-law, who can't smile every day.
Everyone even sighed that Gao Shun's strength was strong, just by marrying Gao Feng, he created a prominent family, making the Zhao family instantly become a high-ranking official and a wealthy man from a rural villager.
Three days later, Zhao Yun and his wife returned to their relatives, and the family got along well; Gao Feng's face was filled with a happy smile.
After dinner, Gao Shun and Zhao Yun drank tea and discussed in the study.
Gao Shun asked directly, "What does Zilong think about this?" ”
Zhao Yun said politely: "Yun has nothing else to do, only some strength, and my brother-in-law arranges it." ”
"Hahaha, it's all a family, Zilong doesn't need to be like this, tell me what he really thinks, and I can make reasonable arrangements."
Zhao Yun thought to himself, it's better to say it directly, otherwise, arrange an errand he doesn't like and waste his time, so he said: "Yun is valued by his brother-in-law to have today's status, Yun doesn't want to be looked down upon, so he hopes to kill a world for his brother-in-law." ”
"Haha, manly man, standing between heaven and earth, bright and upright, why be afraid of the words of others? Just have a clear conscience! ”
Zhao Yun said: "The world is very big, and every place has its owner, and it is not easy to expand the territory. ”
Gao Shun echoed: "What Zilong said is true, the states in northern Xinjiang are very stable, and it is difficult for outsiders to shake them; Xuzhou, Yizhou, Jingzhou and Jiangdong are basically stable, forming a force of their own, and it is difficult for external forces to penetrate; Only Yangzhou Jiangbei and Yuzhou are still in the midst of war, and it is not easy to calm down. ”
Zhao Yun said with a smile: "Haha, brother-in-law looks at the clouds, and the clouds mean that since the Central Plains has no chance for the time being, it is better to look at the outside; And Yun has just arrived, he is young, he has no experience, and he has no skills, so it is better to charge into battle for his brother-in-law in the border county area and fight a piece of the world. ”
"Haha, okay, Zilong has great ambitions, and Shunhui will help you and tell me about your specific plan."
Zhao Yun pondered for a moment, organized his language, and said, "Brother in-law, it is Liangzhou and Pingzhou that are still at war now; According to Xu Junshi, Pingzhou Wuhuan is no longer a concern, Guo Junshi can easily absorb them, and it is useless to go to the clouds; And the war in Liangzhou continues, which is the time to employ people; Yun is willing to go to Liangzhou, calm one side for his brother-in-law, sit on one side, and by the way train a strong army that can fight well. ”
Gao Shun was overjoyed, he didn't see Zhao Yun still have such a vision, he really didn't choose the wrong person, and this is exactly his purpose, he also plans to go to Liangzhou this year, recruit An Han Sui and Ma Teng and others, and then secretly help him, but he pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Zilong is newly married, how can he travel far?" And Liangzhou is full of wars and dangers, in case there is a good one, how to explain to Ah Feng? ”
Zhao Yun said with a smile: "Hahaha, my brother-in-law is wrong, we have already discussed, let's go to Liangzhou together, and we can leave in a month." ”
Gao Shun hated it, and his sister was newly married Yan'er, so she began to go crazy, why can't she be reserved? It's all to blame for his usual relaxation of discipline on her. So he pretended to be angry and said: "The soldiers are in danger, how can there be victory in the world?" How can it be such a child's play? ”
"Brother in-law, rest assured, there are clouds, and you will be able to turn evil into good fortune."
Gao Shun no longer continued the topic, but asked rhetorically, "What are Zilong's specific plans?" ”
"Brother in-law, Yun plans to spend a few years in Liangzhou first, pacify Qianghu, pacify the people, train tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and then raid Hanzhong; After that, as for whether to go to Xichin, Shu, or to Jingzhou in the south, it is up to my brother-in-law to make an idea. ”
"What does Zilong think should be done?"
"Yizhou has a vast territory and rich people, and it will be a great rival of my brother-in-law in the future; And the mountains and rivers of Yizhou are dangerous, which is easy to hold, and when they are full-fledged, it is really difficult to plan, so it is advisable to plan as soon as possible. ”
This is the first time Gao Shun has talked to Zhao Yun in such detail, and he didn't expect his eyes to be so vicious.
In fact, Gao Shunyi would be wrong, Zhao Yun just wanted to expand his territory, so he chose Yizhou, which was weaker.
Gao Shun was overjoyed in his heart, and after pondering for a while, he said: "Okay, Nashun appointed Zilong as the Taishou of Wudu County, and was fully responsible for the affairs of a county, and took Hanzhong within three years, and Nashun recommended Zilong to the imperial court as the pastor of Yizhou." ”
Zhao Yun was overjoyed, and immediately promised: "Yes, Yun has thanked my brother-in-law for his attention and trust, and he will never disgrace his mission!" ”
"Hahaha, okay, let's leave after the moon!"
"Yes, brother-in-law!"
