Afterwards, the crowd reported to Wu Xian that a total of more than a dozen thieves had intercepted them on the road in broad daylight and asked them to drop the money they had obtained. Fortunately, Yu Xi personally led the team at that time, and there was a light knight escort, after the last ambush at the bottom of the mountain, these cavalrymen had already seen blood, and the training was more rigorous.

Under Yu Xi's command, they fired several volleys of five horse bows before the enemy approached, and chased the horses forward. In addition, the retinue of the caravan was also armed, so it was easy to defeat the incoming bandits, and only one person was wounded. After examining the corpses they left behind, Yu Xi found that there was a mixture of Hua Rong, including wild men without clothes and brown, and Rong people wearing animal skins and scarves.

This is a strange thing, within a hundred miles near Xinjiang, Liuqing stationed a whole six divisions of troops, plus the countrymen are brave and brave, often travel with swords, and ordinary thieves dare not come.

However, if you think about it, you can understand that the location of the attack is located in the mountainous area, that is, Luliang Mountain, which extends hundreds of miles from north to south in later generations, is quite remote. And the Jin Kingdom was originally a place where Huarong lived together, and it was common for a small group of Rong people to be robbed in the mountains. In the defense of the country, and even outside the capital Puyang, there are settlements of Rong people.

Zhao Wuxian asked the caravan to double its manpower when it passed through that area in the future, and sent someone to report to the doctor and the secretary.

I only hope that there will be a good harvest in the coming year, and the doctors of the Jin Kingdom in the surrounding territories should not oversqueeze and let the robbers become more and more.

After a while, a person outside the door came to spread the word, saying that Dr. Jinyang's car was about to arrive at the lower palace, and the banquet was about to begin. So Wuxian invited Han Hu and Zhang Meng to talk to each other, and walked to tonight's stage and the palace hall together.

……

Zhao Ying's high crown and Bo belt, sitting in the main seat of the main hall, some of his cronies and retainers, kneeling on the table of the pu seat on both sides, the gentle and humble Zhao Bolu is also in the middle, Zhao Guangde, as a cousin, sits on his side, but in his heart. I prefer to be next to Zhao Wuxian.

At this moment, three uncrowned gentlemen came together, they were wearing deep clothes and wide sleeves, and Peiyu would general. The one on the left is Zhang Mengtan. Walk slowly and steadily, tend to be polite; The one on the right is Han Hu, with a beautiful appearance and a jade tree in the wind.

But walking in the middle, faintly the head of the two. It is the Zhao family who is not good-looking, but exudes a high-spirited and capable temperament! The eyes of everyone in the hall wandered on the shirtless, only to see the shirtless wearing a dark shirt with a dark hunting pattern, wearing a white jade ring, and behaving politely.

Today, the sovereign only recalled the eldest son and the youngest son, but snubbed the second son and the third son, which also made some retainers secretly discuss. I think this may indicate the choice of the son, Zhongxin and Shuqi. The possibility has been ruled out, and the future head of the family is to choose between Beru and Wuxi.

A year ago, most of the people in the temple were still inclined to Berus. He is an eldest gentleman with a benevolent name and filial piety, and he is also the one most similar to his great-grandfather Zhao Wenzi among the sons of the Zhao family: in front of the elders, he is so supple that he seems to be unable to bear the weight of his clothes, and he speaks softly as if he does not make a sound.

What's more, his mother is a Han woman. also made a family affair with Han's granddaughter, the Zhao-Han Alliance, which can be said to be the most important relationship between the Zhao family in the Jin Kingdom.

But that was broken a year ago. The gentleman's shirtless shirt was as dazzling as a big spark across the sky, and its performance completely covered the three brothers.

First of all, it was a sign of auspiciousness on behalf of the white elk, and then many measures to govern the township, establishing the name of benevolence and righteousness with the decree of "stopping from death", and collecting the hearts of the savages. With wheat flour and porcelain, Xinjiang has created countless profits for the Zhao family. Who doesn't have these two things at home?

And it is said that some of his reforms in Chengxiang have been written to the sovereign, and will be gradually implemented in the territory directly under the Zhao family.

In the lower palace doctor, the attitudes of Yin Duo and Fu Su are still between the two, and the military Sima You is not right, and he is already obviously biased towards this gentleman who is quite knowledgeable.

After the three of them saluted, Han Hu and Zhang Mengtan each sat at the last seat, and they also returned to their seats and sat in the middle of Zhao Bolu and Zhao Guangde, but they were stopped by Zhao Ying.

"Bolu, no mercy, come with my father, we will go outside the palace to wait for Dr. Jinyang."

Everyone in the hall was secretly shocked, thinking that Dong Anyu had been away for two years, and the relationship between the monarch and the minister of Zhao Ying would be colder, but who knew that the lord would give him such a high courtesy!

In fact, most of the people in them were recommended to Zhao Ying by Dong Anyu after he found out. And the three doctors also knew that Zhao Ying had his own opinions about the position of the son of the Zhao family, and the impact they could have together could not be worth Dong Anyu's words.

So Zhao Wuxian, under the summons of Zhao Ying, followed suit with his eldest brother Bolu, bypassed the axe-patterned screen of the main hall, and came to the high platform that could overlook the entire lower palace at the back.

Standing on the top of the pavilion, Zhao Ying held the railing with one hand, pointed to the giant shadow in the distance, and pointed to the bright wall and gatehouse with some firewood and said: "Today, Dong Anyu is back from the doctor, I am named Junchen with him, I am actually a teacher and a student, and I am a friend. ”

Bo Lu and Zhao Wuxian agreed in unison, Zhao Ying bowed slightly, although he had two unsuccessful rebels, but on a tree, there were two good dates.

"I heard that when you left the lower palace a year ago, you sang Chang Di Zhihua together, Ebu Wei (ei); There is no one like a brother today. Do you remember the brotherly love of the day, the promise of the day? ”

Zhao Wuxian felt that Zhao Ying's today was different from the past, he had never drunk, but his face was slightly red, and his eyes were shining with a strange light. I don't know what happened, there seems to be a lot of emotion hidden in my chest, and it is particularly humane.

Since the winter solstice last year, Wuxian has indeed not seen Beru for more than half a year, although the two often go back and forth to the palace, but they always miss it. Beru was already in his twenties, with a long crown and a white coat, a square and straight face, two faint whiskers on thin lips, and a warm and soft look in his eyes. Although it looks a little more capable and mature after being sharpened in the place, overall, there is no big change from before.

So, after Bo Lu replied in a sneering voice, Zhao Wuxian replied: "Only! The boy kept it in mind, and when he was in August, he also sent his uncle a newly made pink mooncake, hoping to reunite with his father, brother and sister like a full moon. ”

After listening to Zhao Wuxian's answer, Zhao Ying became more and more satisfied with this little son: after he was plotted by two unsuccessful brothers, he could endure to hide it for them, and often did some things that were quite friendly. He also ate the moon cakes, although he smiled in front of the retainers, "I don't know how the gentleman cooks", but in his heart, he felt a piece of "filial piety" without shirts.

Zhao Ying slapped his palms and smiled: "Good, great good, you have done a good job, no matter what your status and identity are in the future, you must be like this." The heirs of the Zhao clan are like a palm, when they are released, they will only be broken by each one, and only by joining forces can they hurt our enemies. ”

As he spoke, he also reached out and patted the two of them on the shoulders affectionately, this feeling, Zhao Wuxian had not seen it for a long time, and he was stunned for a while.

After saying these words, Zhao Ying was about to walk down the high platform hand in hand with his two sons, but just as he took a step, he only felt that his ears were buzzing, and he stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

Zhao Wuxian and Bolu were startled at the same time, and hurriedly hugged Zhao Ying left and right.

"Father? Are you sick? ”

"It's okay......"

Zhao Ying chuckled, continued to stand up, and pushed away the support of his two sons, as if he had restored the majestic posture of the general of the Jin State and the head of the Zhao family.

"It's probably because I had a headache when I went south for a week, it's no big deal, I will definitely pull Dong Zi today, punish him for the belated wine of the third lord, and have a good drink, just the so-called gathering tonight, very happy!"

After tidying up the crown belt, Zhao Ying continued to take a few steps forward. Who knows, every step felt extremely heavy, and as soon as he stepped down the steps, he felt the world spinning again, and he fell headlong on the velvet carpet! (To be continued.) )
