On the contrary to Ling Cao, Pang Xin is the best at drilling, and observing words and emotions is his housekeeping ability, when he found out that Ma Chi began to alienate him, he immediately made a decision, he must find a new backer, otherwise his life will be lost. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Zhang Fan is the only one who can choose at the moment, so there is no need to choose. Although Pang Xin is not as outstanding as Ling Cao, he is also skilled in bows and horses, has a rough understanding of the art of war, and has rich experience in leading troops, at least the big and small leaders of Huanglongzhai, there is no second person who can compare with him. It is rare to take the initiative to work, and Zhang Fan naturally has no reason to refuse it.

When he saw that Zhang Fan was interested in his good friend Ling Cao, he immediately volunteered to help the new owner as a lobbyist, which led to today's scene.

Pang Xin said earnestly: "Kun Tao, you see that the master of Zhang Zhai has invited you to a banquet and drink every day these days, he is full of sincerity, and he really values your talents, which is very different from that horse gallop." ”

Ling Cao was silent. Pang Xin continued to persuade:

"You also know that Lord Zhang Zhai has already agreed with Lord Fang to recruit An, and as soon as the edict arrives, he is also the military attache of the imperial court, so it is not a grievance against you. Huanglongzhai used to be a bandit's nest, yes, it was also the previous owners of the village who did evil, and Zhang Zhai was in the village for less than a month, which has nothing to do with him. Now that the people of Huanglongzhai have changed from bandits to officials and soldiers, they have changed their minds and changed their faces, and they are new people, isn't it also a good thing? ”

Ling Cao still didn't speak, and Pang Xin continued to mend the knife:

"You probably don't know that Ma Chi signed your appointment order and seconded you to Huanglongzhai until the edict arrives, which will take effect on the same day. We all know that you take him as a benefactor, and they abandon you like a shoe, so we will hide it from you...... Don't you think it's ridiculous? ”

Ling Cao raised his eyebrows coldly: "What you said is true?" ”

Pang Xin pointed to the sky and swore an oath: "That order has seen with his own eyes, if there is a lie, the sky will thunder." ”

"Humph!" Ling Cao slapped the stone table, and the chess pieces fell to the ground one after another, and shouted angrily: "The horse gallops, the bullying is too much!" ”

Pang Xin saw Ling Cao enter the room angrily, closed the door hard, and sighed in his heart:

Ling Cao, Ling Cao, so many of Ma Chi's henchmen here heard you say this, and now you want to go back...... Can't go back!

…………

Pang Xin and Zhang Fan reported the progress, Zhang Fan was very satisfied, and Pang Xin took the initiative to suggest:

"Lord, I see that he has been shaken, or I will beat the side drum again, and then ......"

Zhang Fan stopped him, "No, you've done a good job." I still have a killer weapon that is useless, and I will definitely be able to make a final decision when the time comes. ”

"Yes." Pang Xin nodded respectfully.

Zhang Fan decided to reveal a little, which can be regarded as a kind of praise for him, this time Pang Xin is very hard-working, and he also needs a little recognition:

"I sent someone to invite his wife and children here, hmph, he has no way back."

Pang Xin was stunned for a moment, "Lord, Ling Cao values his family very much, and he has taken his family captive...... I'm afraid it will backfire! ”

"Who said it was taken captive?"

Pang Xin asked curiously: "I don't know what ...... is?"

"The letter sent by a certain person was stamped with Ma Chi's official seal, saying that Ling Cao had been promoted and was going to take them over to enjoy the blessings, so they obediently followed."

"But......" Pang Xin suddenly realized, "When the time comes, the lord will become a captive general, and he will naturally be promoted to another official, and the fake will become true...... Clever! ”

"Less sycophancy. I'll give his wife and children a big house and money, you say...... What will happen to him? ”

Pang Xin echoed: "Ling Cao has not made any achievements for so many years, and his wife and son have suffered a lot with him, and he has been ridiculed by his neighbors...... When the adult came like this, Ling Cao must have been moved, not to mention recognizing the master, even if he recognized his father, he was willing to agree. ”

"Bastard!" Zhang Fan scolded with a smile: "What do you want such a big son to do if you are not married?" Thou shalt talk nonsense here, step aside! ”

Pang Xin nodded and retreated......

……

The messenger sent by Zhang Fan dragged his family back from Wu County, and it was certainly not a matter of a moment. The people of the Lu clan in Shanyin sent a ransom of 200,000 yuan, and Zhang Fan also let Lu Jun go down the mountain......

A few days later, the edict of the imperial court arrived, after all, he was a miscellaneous general, and he handed a fold up below, and opened the way in Fang Yihai's relationship with Ma Chi's money, and the edict came in less than a month.

Zhang Fan ordered people to set up twelve mountain sheds all the way from the foot of the mountain on the south side, knotted colorful hanging flowers, beat gongs and drums, and arranged people to go to the bottom of the mountain to put chickens, ducks, fish, wine, food, rice and noodles, and prepare a banquet to entertain angels.

After the angel finished reading the edict, Zhang Fan waited for the three bows to thank him, took the edict, accepted the official uniform and seal, and Zhang Fan quietly stuffed a few gold leaves into the hands of the chief eunuch.

Wow, that's a big deal! The old eunuch was overjoyed, and explained a few words to Zhang Fan with a pleasant face, but he didn't sit at the table, and returned the same way.

Zhang Fan set up a banquet and drank heartily, and the subordinates of Ma and Fang, who were under house arrest some time ago, were also invited to the hall to congratulate Zhang Fan, and Zhang Fan returned the salute:

"Everyone, how offended, I'll give you a no. After this meal, I arranged for someone to send everyone down the mountain for reunion. ”

Everyone was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, sir." ”

Zhang Fan said loudly: "Haha, it's just that you don't know each other if you don't fight." In the future, as officials of the same dynasty, they should be of one heart and one mind, loyal to the monarch and patriotic. Come, let's drink this cup full, the past is written off with the wind, okay? ”

There was a look of displeasure on everyone's faces, but people under the eaves could only force a smile: "Okay, do it!" ”

At the end of the banquet, Zhang Fan took out a signed and stamped order from Ma Chi, leaving Pang Xin and Ling Cao. The rest were sent down the mountain by Zhang Fan.

Pang Xin immediately knelt down and saluted: "Heart to see the lord." ”

Zhang Fan smiled and helped him up, but Ling Cao stood expressionless, motionless, Pang Xin was about to open his mouth to scold, Zhang Fan raised his hand to stop it, and said gently:

"Kun Tao, I'll introduce you to two old friends." Clapped his hands.

Ling Cao followed Zhang Fan's gaze, and saw his wife Ling and son Ling Tong walking in from outside the door, and was taken aback, blurting out:

"Why are you here?"

Ling Shi suddenly attacked: "Okay, you Ling Kuntao, what's the matter, the old lady has raised her son by herself for so many years, how many sins she has suffered." I finally worked hard to hope that you would be promoted and make a fortune, and now you dislike me, Lao Zhuhuang, and you want to kick me away, you bastard with no conscience, I might as well die......"

"When did I get promoted and get rich?"

Ling glared at him angrily: "You still want to trick me, they have taken me to your house, seven or eight big tiled houses, I don't know how magnificent." The subordinates all said that you are a partial general now, in charge of thousands of soldiers and horses, and you have a few hundred catties of grain a month......"

Ling Cao was inexplicable, and at this time Zhang Fan said with a straight face: "Ling Cao listens to orders." ”

The military order was like a mountain, and Ling Cao, as a subordinate, could only kneel, and Zhang Fan spoke:

"General Ling Cao was self-denying, brave in his work, promoted to a partial general, and gave him a house, fifty pieces of money, and ten horses of cloth."

Someone immediately came out with a reward, Ling Cao looked at his wife and son with joy, and couldn't help but feel sad, for his own temperament, he made his wife and children suffer and suffer, what kind of husband is it?

Ling Cao sighed, and his five bodies fell to the ground: "to see the lord!" ”

The corners of Zhang Fan's mouth rose, remembering Tang Taizong's words:

The heroes of the world are in my hands!
