Gao Shun quickly stepped forward and untied Zhang Jiao. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Zhang Ning ran out of the lobby quickly, threw himself into Zhang Jiao's arms, and cried: "Father, I'm so scared, I think I'll never see you again." ”

Zhang Jiao patted her on the back and comforted: "Isn't it good for father, Ning'er, don't cry, they're all big girls, and outsiders will laugh at them if they cry again." ”

Gao Shun took the opportunity to check Zhang Jiao's attributes, 57 years old, with a force value of 74, intelligence 93, and politics 88, which made Gao Shun amazed for a while, and he really had some ability.

Pei Yuanshao stood awkwardly to the side.

After Zhang Ning finished venting his emotions and stopped crying, Gao Shun said, "Sect Leader Zhang, please come to the house." ”

Zhang Jiao walked calmly into the lobby, and Zhang Ning held his arm tightly and didn't let go.

The two sides are seated separately.

This is still Zhang Jiao's residence in the morning, and now it has changed owners, Zhang Jiao is very open-minded, and takes the initiative to choose to sit on the side of the guests.

Pei Yuanshao, as the former Zhang Jiao's guard general, is now a little embarrassed, looking at the people on both sides, he finally chose to sit down under Li Qiang, lowered his head, and didn't dare to look at Zhang Jiao's face.

Gao Shun spoke first: "In Xia Gaoshun, Julu County Taishou admires Sect Leader Zhang very much, but Sect Master Zhang was born at the wrong time, and the uprising at this time can only bring the poor people into a more painful abyss, so the uprising will fail." ”

Zhang Jiao felt that such a young Taishou dared to teach him a lesson, and he was angry in his heart, but the victory and defeat on the battlefield had been decided, and he was unwilling to defend himself.

Gao Shun said again: "Sect Leader Zhang may not be convinced, you don't have a rear base, you don't do anything about production, you only know how to plunder, people have joined the Yellow Turban Army, so who will you plunder next year?" Now the land is desolate, people are displaced and suffering greatly; Secondly, your forces are scattered, the thirty-six commanders are in their own affairs, and there is no unified command, the imperial army will be broken individually, and it will not be long before the uprising will be suppressed. ”

Zhang Jiao obviously didn't want to talk to Gao Shun about these issues, the second brother was killed, he was captured alive, and discussing these issues would not help him, but asked, "How did Gao Taishou arrange for the believers?" ”

"Hehe, Sect Leader Zhang doesn't have to worry, the counties of Julu County are ten rooms and nine empty, and the official will distribute land, food, and farm tools to them, so that they can settle down on the spot and cultivate with peace of mind."

"Thank you, Mrs. Gao, what are your arrangements for the old man?"

"Have a good time with A-Ning tonight, and let's go early tomorrow morning."

His fame is too great, and he is a key criminal who must be killed by the imperial court, and Gao Shun does not dare to take him in.

Zhang Jiao thought about it and said with an open-minded smile: "Hehe, exchange the life of the old man for the safety and stability of hundreds of thousands of believers, and the old man has thanked Gao Taishou." After that, he stroked Zhang Ning's long hair like a waterfall, and said with infinite pity: "Ning'er has grown up, and she will learn to take care of herself in the future, but it's a pity that my father can't see you getting married and starting a family." ”

Pei Yuanshao was in a hurry, hurriedly took a step forward, knelt in front of Gao Shun, and begged: "Lord, is there no way to save the sect master's life?" You can use a fake corpse to ask the court for merit. ”

Zhang Ning also raised his head, stared at Gao Shun with teary eyes, and looked at Gao Shun with expectation, hoping that Gao Shun would release his father.

Gao Shun shook his head, his mind was decided.

There are too many people who know Zhang Jiao, there is no way to hide it no matter what, there are no fools in the court, and now is not the time to confront the court, he can't lose a big one because of a small one.

Zhang Ning was very disappointed, his eyes dimmed instantly, and after a while, he asked in a low voice: "High Envoy Jun, after that, we will take refuge in the mountains and forests and ignore the world, can't we still be spared?" ”

Gao Shun didn't speak, just shook his head.

Zhang Jiao was not surprised by Gao Shun's attitude, changed his tone, and said calmly: "Trouble Gao Envoy Jun to take care of Ning'er in the future, the old man does not seek his wealth and wealth, but only wants to live a peaceful life." ”

"Although Sect Leader Zhang is relieved, if Aning approves it, he will be regarded as a sister if he wishes."

"Haha, okay, with the words of the high envoy, the old man will be relieved."

Gao Shun thought that in history, the remnants of the Yellow Turban lasted for decades, and there were many of them, and they were a force to be reckoned with. ”

"Haha, Gao Taishou, if you have something to say, the old man is leaving, what blow can't he bear?"

Gao Shun pointed to Li Qiang beside him and said: "This is the first military general under Naishun, Li Qiang Li Mengwen, 21 years old this year, strong in martial arts, it is rare to meet opponents in the world, and he proposes to Sect Master Zhang, so that A-Ning can have a good home, and Sect Leader Zhang can also go on the road with peace of mind; I don't know if Sect Leader Zhang will agree? ”

If Gao Shun proposed marriage for himself, Zhang Jiao would not hesitate to agree, but he proposed marriage for his subordinates, Zhang Jiao was a little dissatisfied, but after thinking about it, he was relieved, Gao Shun controlled several counties before he became weak, how could he destroy his future and marry the daughter of a thief? Li Qiang is also good, strong in martial arts, dignified in appearance, qualified as his son-in-law, and he was relieved to see that his daughter had a good home before he died.

Seeing that Zhang Jiao didn't speak, Gao Shun added: "Li Mengwen is a native of the border county, his whole family was killed by barbarians, and now he is alone, and he has the most important feelings, and he will definitely not be embarrassed by A-Ning; There are a few Yellow Turban Qu Shuai under Ji Shun, and he will definitely not see Ah Ning being bullied, please rest assured that Sect Leader Zhang is. ”

Zhang Jiao said: "Thank you Gao Taishou for looking up to Ning'er, while the old man still has time, he even got married and married today, so that I can also be worthy of Ning'er's mother." ”

"Ah, isn't it a little anxious, how about getting married today and getting married in a year?" Gao Shun was very surprised, Zhang Jiao was more anxious than him.

According to the tradition of the time, if the mother died before the father, after the death of the father, the daughter who did not leave the cabinet was required to keep filial piety for the father for one year.

"I hope that before leaving, I can see Ning'er get married and start a family, besides, a year later, Ning'er will become an old girl, and the old husband will not be able to see it at that time; I hope that the high envoy will fulfill the old man's wish. ”

Zhang Jiao thought to himself, since it has been decided, it can't be delayed, the world is so chaotic now, otherwise what will be the situation in a year, who can say clearly? And now that she is married, she doesn't need Zhang Ning to keep her filial piety, she can live with peace of mind in the future, so that she will not alarm outsiders because of her filial piety, and expose the fact that she is Zhang Jiao's daughter, which can be regarded as the protection of her daughter.

Since Zhang Jiao disagreed, Gao Shun thought for a while and said, "Okay, just do what Sect Leader Zhang said." ”

Li Qiang liked this beautiful girl very much, and originally thought that Gao Shun would accept her, but he didn't expect Gao Shun to marry him first, and he was ecstatic in his heart.

Zhang Jiao smiled: "Hehe, thank you for making Jun complete; I hope that it will not be publicized to the outside world, and it can be handled in a low-key manner. ”

Gao Shun said: "Thank you Sect Master Zhang for your understanding, I don't understand these etiquettes and processes, I just wronged A-Ning." ”

"Special treatment during special periods, otherwise it will be extraneous and not conducive to Ning'er's future life."

Then things were much simpler, the two parties exchanged eight characters, wrote a marriage letter, and agreed to get married on the same day.

In order to reassure Zhang Jiao and make up for Zhang Ning's regret that he could not marry in style, Gao Shun promised to build a mansion for Zhang Ning Zhongshan and give her 5,000 acres of land in Wuji County as a wedding gift to ensure a safe life in the future; And living in Zhongshan country, it is not important to attract attention and is relatively safe.

Zhang Jiao thanked Gao Shun for taking care of Zhang Ning, so he reciprocated the favor by drawing the address of the Lingxiao Mountain base and the control array map on the spot and handing it to Gao Shun; And took out a jade talisman and a nine-section sandalwood staff from a dark room in the inner hall and handed it to Gao Shun, with the jade talisman or nine-section sandalwood staff, he could mobilize and take over the troops of the Yellow Turban Qu Marshals; Zhang Jiao is also a cunning old fox, and when he learned that Gao Shun deliberately let Zuo Zhangba go, he saw that he was a restless master, and he already regarded Gao Shun as the future successor of Taiping Dao and the Yellow Turban Army.
