Chapter 752: Yangzhou Zhang Family

Soon, with the safe return of the county prince Chen Jitao, Guo Ye wore a scarlet robe and a winged hat, and appeared in front of the first secretary of the government and the six Cao Zuoguan, accompanied by the eldest grandson Yumo and Chen Jitao.

Everyone has heard a little about what happened in the backyard just now. Some gossip about Guo Ye spread in private, and soon, everyone probably had an understanding of this ruthless and resolute young assassin history.

Guo Ye relied on the letter of appointment of the ministry, and the lost and recovered seal of the assassin history, coupled with the thunderous Liwei who had just made a thunderous move against Tong Huan in the backyard, so he naturally took over the post of Yangzhou assassin.

Although he knows very well that some of these people are against him, he is very sober that he has just accepted the position of Yangzhou Assassin, and it is the time to employ people, and he must not carry out a major purge and blood change of the government office, otherwise the entire government mechanism will stop working, and he will be completely stupid.

So, he reprimanded Tong Huan's matter, but the Tong Huan incident was limited to the parties involved, and at most Tong Huan's master was affected. For the rest of these people, in addition to encouragement, he still encouraged.

There is no way, there is an extreme shortage of available talents in his hands now, and if a few beautiful words can win people's hearts, he will definitely not hesitate to praise them.

After summoning everyone, Guo Ye even asked Chen Lang, the new commander of Zhichong, to make an appearance, which can be regarded as a familiar face to establish his authority for him.

As for how to accept the Zhichong Governor's Mansion and how to subdue the 1,500 government soldiers, Guo Ye couldn't help it, so he could only rely on Chen Lang's own reputation in Yangzhou to find a way.

After he instructed Liu Zhenxuan to cooperate with Chen Lang in everything, he sent the two out of the mansion.

As for the 300 personal soldiers, because of the lack of people under him, he naturally stayed by his side and waited for the dispatch.

After disbanding the officials in the palace, he left Chen Jitao and the eldest grandson Yumo alone to go to Tong Huan's study to discuss the next step.

It was precisely because good things did not go out and evil things traveled thousands of miles, and the great changes that had just taken place in the Assassin's Mansion were quickly spread through the mouths of some officials.

After a while, the Zhang family in Yangzhou also received the news

South of Yangzhou City, Gujing Lane.

The three-entry houses of red bricks and green tiles are located in the Gujing Lane, and they rise up from each other continuously, and the three-entry houses of nearly twenty or thirty high-walled gates have only one master, all of which belong to Yangzhou Zhang's.

This is not only the ancestral home of the Zhang family, the ancestral hall of the Zhang family, but also the settlement of the Zhang family's three rooms.

Zhang Yuanli, Zhang Yuanzhi, and Zhang Yuanxin each received a room and were entrenched in Gujing Lane.

Counting up, the Zhang family has been in Gujing Lane for nearly two hundred years since Huaiyang moved south.

The three brothers of the Zhang family are now the highest leaders of the Zhang family, representing the Zhang family, one of the eight major families of Guanlong. Below the Yuan generation is the Chengzi generation, such as Zhang Chengzong, the Yangzhou salt transport envoy, is the eldest son of Zhang Yuanzhi in the second room. As for the underside of the successor generation, it is the successor generation, but the successor generation is still young now, and they are all the same age as Guo Ye and the eldest grandson Yumo and others, and they have not yet reached the time to be independent. Most of the children of the inheritance generation are either studying abroad or are gilded in the army.

At this time, Zhang Yuanli, as the patriarch, went to Chang'an, and the affairs of Yangzhou were presided over by Zhang Yuanzhi of the second room and Zhang Yuanxin of the third room.

When Zhang Chengzong arrived Guo Ye in Yangzhou, made a high-profile appearance in the Assassin's Mansion, and brought the news of Tong Huan Liwei to the Zhang family, the two brothers Zhang Yuanzhi did not despise it, and met in the ancestral house of the Zhang family for the first time.

The only people attending the meeting today are Zhang Yuanzhi, Zhang Yuanxin, and Zhang Chengzong.

When Zhang Chengzong was talking about what happened in the Assassin's Mansion in the lobby of the ancestral mansion, the faces of the two brothers Zhang Yuanzhi showed solemn expressions.

Zhang Yuanzhi watched his son Zhang Chengzong finish speaking, his face was full of tyranny, and he couldn't help but scold: "Zong'er, how did your father teach you on weekdays?" Those who succeed in things have calm in every major event. How did you become so easily irritable? ”

Zhang Chengzong said hatefully: "Father, how do you calm the child?" Today, he took advantage of the assassination of Shi Yinxi to attack Tong Huan and directly took him down. When he gets a firm foothold, he will definitely cut the child. He went to Yangzhou this time to come for the Yangzhou salt tax and our Zhang family. Moreover, according to the news sent back by the eldest uncle from Chang'an, the imperial court has allowed him to remove me as a salt transport envoy. Hmph, this surnamed Guo has already bullied us! ”

"You bastard, you dare to hide the seal of the assassination history from your father and Tong Huan, you deserve it!"

After Zhang Yuanzhi reprimanded him, he hated iron and said: "I taught you on weekdays that you should be secretive and confidential in doing things, you are good, but the county surnamed Chen heard the secret discussion." Didn't he scrub his neck and hand a knife to the surnamed Guo? If he didn't take advantage of this matter to take Tong Huan down, he wouldn't be Longxi Guo Ye. Don't talk about you, even the eldest grandson has suffered at his hands, alas, you can't make a climate. ”

After Zhang Yuanzhi finished training, he turned his head and stopped talking with a gloomy face.

However, Zhang Yuanxin was more calm, and said with a chuckle: "Second brother, don't be angry, isn't Chengzong still young?" ”

"Young?" Zhang Yuanzhi was suddenly provoked to talk again, and sneered, "He is already in his forties, and my grandson has already won the show, can he still be a father without growing up?" ”

Zhang Chengzong was so ashamed of his father that he was faceless, and he lowered his head in extreme depression.

Zhang Yuanxin persuaded: "Haha, Chengzong, your father is deeply responsible for love, you have to know it." But I ask you, are you a reliable source? ”

Zhang Chengzong slowly raised his head and responded: "Third uncle, you don't know, it's already started to spread outside." And in order to ensure the accuracy and authenticity of the news, the nephew also specially researched it. Among the officials in the government is the person who was inserted by our Zhang family, and the news came to me personally. ”

After Zhang Yuanxin confirmed the authenticity of the news, he said slowly: "It seems that this kid surnamed Guo is young and vigorous, taking advantage of the seal to win Tong Huan, in addition to breaking Tong Huan's future, I can't think of any substantive value to Guo Ye." It seems to me that he is nothing more than telling us that he Guo someone is coming! And as soon as he came, he was a thunderbolt method, nothing more than to let us know that the new official took office to burn the first fire and give us a dismissal. ”

Zhang Chengzong said a little impatiently: "That's right, he is provoking our Zhang family, third uncle." Since he dared to burn the first fire, there must be a second fire and a third fire. Third uncle, if Tong Huan's mouth is not strict and he can't withstand Guo Ye's torture, he confesses me too, saying that I conspired with him to hide the seal, how should I deal with it? ”

When Zhang Yuanxin heard this, he suddenly withdrew his smile, his eyes flashed coldly, and he said coldly: "Chengzong doesn't need to worry about this matter. Although Tong Huan is overwhelmed, he is not a fool. He is now taking care of this matter alone, at most he has been cut off by Guo Ye. If he involves you too, hmph, I'm afraid that not only will he lose his future, but he will also bury his own life. He knows very well in his heart that as long as he dares to open his mouth and confess you, he will not have many days to live. ”

Zhang Chengzong's face couldn't help but be happy when he heard this, and he secretly praised in his heart that the third uncle was domineering.

Then he said yes again and again, and said, "That's good, that's good." In this case, the person surnamed Guo will not find a reason to remove me from the position of salt transport envoy. ”

"Humph!"

Zhang Yuanzhi looked at his unfortunate son, and always remembered the one-acre and three-point land of the Yanyun Yamen, and couldn't help but snort coldly: "Look at your little bit of interest, it's really mud that can't support the wall." Now that the surname Guo has taken over the post of Yangzhou Assassin and is here for the Yangzhou salt tax, do you think he will let you continue to sit in the salt transportation yamen? Long brains, bastard! ”

"Damn, I said, dad, can you not always discipline me and scold me?"

Zhang Chengzong was red-eyed by Zhang Yuanzhixun now, and said hurriedly: "Our Zhang family is also the first gate valve in Yangzhou, so you just watched the surname Guo play with me like this?" If he dared to withdraw, Lao Tzu would take the guards of the Yamen with 3,000 salt to kill the assassin's mansion. Isn't he capable? Isn't it capable? At that time, I will let him know that Yangzhou is not Chang'an, even if he is a tiger here, he will give me a stomach, and a dragon will have to be coiled for me. Damn it, let him know how powerful Lao Tzu is. ”

"Bastard! You don't remember to eat. Bastard who doesn't have a brain! ”

Zhang Yuanzhi got up angrily and roared violently: "Leading the troops to break into the government and openly commit murder against the assassination, do you want to kill the official and rebel?" Do you want to bury our Zhang family? You evil obstacle, instead of leaving you in this world to cause disaster to our Zhang family, it is better to kill you now! ”

After that, Zhang Yuanzhi, who was old and strong in his sixties, suddenly rushed to Zhang Chengzong with a fist and attacked, and an electric cannon smashed on Zhang Chengzong's right eye frame, which suddenly became a panda eye.

Zhang Chengzong was in pain, and it was impossible to beat his father back, so he naturally screamed in pain while avoiding his father's second electric cannon in a circle.

At this time, Zhang Yuanxin couldn't help but shake his head and was speechless when he looked at the father and son, and he could fight while talking, and he was still playing a strict father and son in the ancestral house, which was really ridiculous.

Immediately, he got up and hugged Zhang Yuanxin's waist board and persuaded: "Second brother, don't be angry, if you have something to discuss, will it be successful?" Our Zhang family is the head snake of the ground, and others have not attacked yet, how can we mess up our own position? ”

Zhang Yuanzhi stopped, panting and glaring at Zhang Chengzong, and scolded: "This unscrupulous son, this bastard, really swept the door of our Zhang family, how could I give birth to such a stupid bastard like a pig?" ”

Zhang Chengzong hid far away, listening to the old man still scolding, he was extremely unhappy, and muttered secretly: "You call me stupid and stupid like a pig, then aren't you a boar yourself?" Hmph, I really don't know who the idiots are. ”

"What do you say? See if I can't kill you......"

Zhang Yuanzhi seemed to vaguely hear Zhang Chengzong's complaint, and he was about to jump up and chase after him in a hurry.

Zhang Yuanxin still hugged him and shouted: "Second brother, Chengzong's words are not unreasonable. Since the bullying surnamed Guo has hit us, we can't blindly retreat and tolerate it, and we should fight back against him appropriately. ”

"Aang?"

Zhang Yuanzhi suddenly turned his head and looked at Zhang Yuanxin with a surprised expression, and questioned: "Third child, do you also agree with that bastard's words?" Do you already have a plan in mind? ”

PS: The fourth shift is late, sorry.
