The history of Gong County can be traced back to a long time.

As early as 300,000 years ago, there were human footprints here, and left the remains of 'Peiligang Culture', 'Yangshao Culture' and 'Longshan Culture' of later generations. During the Western Zhou Dynasty, King Wu divided the princes, and Gongbo established the Gongbo Kingdom here. During the Warring States Period, King Xiang of Qinzhuang established Gong County, which also represents that Gong County also began its long and legendary history.

To the south of Gong County, is Zhongyue Song Mountain; There is a moat of the Yellow River to the north.

To the east, there is a tiger prison, and the west is a black stone pass. Therefore, since ancient times, it has had the reputation of 'mountains and rivers are jammed and consolidated'.

Gong County also got its name from this.

Because it guards the ancient capital of Luoyang, it has the saying that the key to the eastern capital is a battleground for soldiers.

In the sixth year of the great cause, Zheng Shi'an led the crowd to return to Gongxian.

He obtained 3,000 hectares of fertile land from Zheng's Qifang and Zheng Shanyuan, plus more than 500 hectares of land originally allocated to him by An Yuantang, thus becoming the largest landlord in Gong County in one fell swoop. His land stretched from the Huoshan Mountains to the Yiluo River, and thousands of tenant farmers worked for him.

In Zheng Yanqing's previous life, he visited Gongxian many times.

But for the first time since he was reborn, he was here. Everything seems very unfamiliar, and today's Gongxian and Gongyi in his memory cannot coincide.

Strangled the jade hoof, Zheng Yanqing raised his eyes and looked.

It has entered the late autumn season, and the wilderness is filled with a sense of depression and slaughter.

The Yiluo River in the distance is rolling and flowing, and the red maples in Huoshan Mountain are also particularly spectacular.

"Big brother, why don't you leave?"

Xiong Dahai urged him to step forward and asked curiously.

Zheng Yanqing showed a smile on his face, pointed the horsewhip in his hand into the distance, and said in a deep voice: "Oh, grandpa, they ...... Came to greet us. ”

From the village grange in the distance, a group of people came.

The white-haired beard headed by Zheng Shi'an is Zheng Shi'an. Behind him, Wang Zheng and Xiong Sledgehammer accompanied him. Shen Guang and the three brothers of the party family followed behind them, and further back, there was a large group of people such as Xiao Nian. Zheng Yanqing jumped off the war horse from a distance, with a thin waist and four eyes, and rushed over excitedly.

They recognized Xiao Nian...... When they were puppies, they were fed by Xiao Nian.

Yan Qing is their master, but Xiao Nian has no doubt, just like their relatives.

"Thin waist, four eyes!"

Mao Xiaonian also shouted happily and ran up to hug the mastiff. As for Zheng Shi'an and the others, they didn't pay attention to the mastiff, but walked quickly to Zheng Yanqing.

"Grandson meets grandpa!"

Zheng Yanqing walked more than a dozen steps and knelt on one knee.

And Xiong Dahai knelt down in front of the male sledgehammer, banging his head three times.

Zheng Shi'an and Xiong Sledgehammer are so happy that they can't keep their mouths together. I helped my children up, looked up and down, and I didn't think I could see enough.

"Yanqing, you can be regarded as back!"

Zheng Shi'an said softly: "If you don't come back, I'm afraid you'll delay my mind." ”

Yan Qing was stunned, "Mind? ”

"Let's go and talk when we get home."

Zheng Shi'an pulled Zheng Yanqing and walked back. Yan Qing had met Shen Guang and the others at this time, and Shen Guang had already taken the reins when he dismounted.

Jade Hoof is very obedient and docile to Shen Guang.

Yan Qing and Shen Guang hugged each other, "Brother Shen, you've worked hard for the past two years." ”

"Hehe, it's hard to talk about there. The old lady is very kind to me...... You see, I've gained a lot of weight in the past two years. ”

Zheng Shi'an's residence in Gong County is located at the foot of Huo Mountain.

This Huo Mountain is very famous in later generations. Because hundreds of years later, Zhao Kuangyin, the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty, chose the location of Dingling here and renamed it Qinglong Mountain. Later, the mausoleums of countless emperors and empresses in the Northern Song Dynasty were centered on Qinglong Mountain and the address was selected.

Here, that is, where the Song Mausoleum of later generations is located.

Yan Qing didn't expect Zheng Shi'an to choose his residence at the foot of Huo Mountain.

It is about 30 miles away from the county seat of Gongxian County. But it can't be denied that this is a treasure trove of feng shui. Zheng Sai'an built a house according to the topography and set up the grange here, and in just two years, a village of more than 200 households was formed.

Zheng Shi'an led the elders of the clan, and the county magistrate of Gongxian County did not dare to slack off, and appointed him as the party leader of this Huo Village.

Today's Zheng Shi'an is becoming more and more magnificent...... This person's position and identity are different, and his bearing will naturally change. When he returned home with Zheng Yanqing, Zheng Shi'an was not in a hurry to talk about things with Yanqing. Xiao Nian had already prepared the bath water, and asked Yan Qing to wash away the dust along the way first.

After taking a hot bath, Yan Qing changed into a white dress.

Xiao Nian carefully tied his hair, making Zheng Yanqing feel like he was back a few years ago.

"The old lady has prepared wine and food in the hall, waiting for the young master to come over."

Xiao Nian's face was flushed. In the past two years, she has become more and more agile. If two years ago she was just a green peach with a flaunting charm, but now she has become a ripe peach. The body is concave and convex, the body is slender, delicate and delicate like a flower, and it is more attractive...... Yanqing changed his clothes and came to the middle hall in good spirits.

Xiong Dahai was already sitting at the banquet, Zheng Shi Anxiong Sledgehammer and Wang Zheng were sitting in the middle, and there was a row of people dressed as stewards.

These are the stewards of the Grange who are responsible for Zheng Shi'an's affairs.

Some are locals, and some are people from Xingyang Zhengfu...... When Cheng first arrived at the Grange, there were quite a few tricky and eccentric guys. However, Zheng Shi'an has been a housekeeper all his life, and these methods of managing things are like pediatrics in his eyes.

When he first arrived in Gong County in January, Zheng Shi'an was very quiet.

Just when the stewards were acting unscrupulously, he suddenly made a move and grabbed three typical characters. One was beheaded by Shen Guang on the spot, and two were sent to the Gongxian County Ya, where they were sentenced to be involved in the border and could not be returned for life. The thunderous means shocked the stewards at once. After that, Zheng Shi'an applied both soft and hard, appeased and driven...... In just three months, the entire Grange was controlled.

The stewards also know that Master Zheng has a grandson, who is a great man.

can't help but be quite influential in Shilin, and even worship the cloud cavalry, saying that he has a great future. However, most of them had also heard of it, except for a few stewards from Xingyang, who had seen Zheng Yanqing from afar, no one else had met him. Now when I see it, I really show a talent.

Zheng Shi'an introduced the stewards present to Zheng Yanqing one after another.

Yan Qing nodded lukewarmly, and said hello. For these people, you can't show that you are too close to them, otherwise someone will kick your nose in the face. The more they seem to be on top, the more they can sometimes make these guys feel intimidated. When people are afraid, they are respectful.

His attitude, in the eyes of the stewards, was right.

"Shiji came here a while ago, and asked me about your news."

"Oh?"

"He's been pretty busy lately...... Since the beginning of this year, there has been some chaos in Henan. There are often bandits around, harassing the neighbors. Shiji is now quite proud of Fang County's subordinates. In charge of the city and countryside, he has defeated the bandits who have invaded the border several times, and his reputation is about to surpass yours. ”

Zheng Yanqing did not feel unhappy, on the contrary, he was very happy.

Such Xu Shiji is the Xu Shiji in his impression. A nerd who can fight and fight, not just know how to read dead books in the schoolhouse.

From Zheng Shi'an's mouth, he can understand that Xu Shiji is doing very happily now.

In the middle of the year, his father bought a lot of properties next to Nanhedu, and now he is also proud. Shiji originally wanted to wait for you to come back, but Fang County ordered him to urgently send him out on business, so he could only regret it. But he said that you must wait for him to come back and reunite. ”

Yan Qing nodded, indicating that he understood.

After three rounds of drinking, the stewards got up one after another, took their leave, and left.

Zheng Yanqing had the opportunity to ask: "Grandpa, you didn't make it clear in the letter, what happened when you called me back from Emei this time?" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present showed a smile.

"Qingwa'er, your chance has come."

"Opportunity?"

Zheng Shi'an said: "You rushed all the way back, you must have known." His Majesty prepared to use troops against Liaodong, and gathered the world's soldiers and horses in Zhuo County. ”

I don't just know, I know that this war will end in a crushing defeat.

However, Yan Qing couldn't say this, so he nodded, indicating that he had heard about it.

"Now, the children of each family have led the clan group to gather in Zhuo County. You also know that the small country of Goguryeo dares to be arrogant. Your Majesty will be able to win a great victory with the use of troops this time. The children of each family are not so much going to war, but earning martial arts. ”

After hearing this, Yan Qing faintly felt bad in his heart.

Zheng Shi'an continued: "Your Uncle Yuanshou and Uncle Shanguo have won the right to participate in the war in Haimingdao (present-day Haeju, Korea), so they sent people back to order the children of the clan to do their best, form the Zheng clan, and go to Donglai to report to Hu'er with General Youyiwei. The general ordered that the clans brought by the children of all ethnic groups must arrive in Donglai to report before the 22nd day of the lunar month, and those who are late will not be accepted.

Counting the time, it's not much time.

At the clan elders' meeting, I won an opportunity for you, and you will go to Donglai as the Sima of the Zheng clan to seek martial arts and military merits. ”

When Zheng Yanqing heard this, he couldn't help but gasp.

I was really afraid of something, and as I expected, my grandfather wanted me to return, and he actually asked me to go to Goguryeo!

Isn't that looking for death?

Zheng Yanqing didn't want to join in the excitement at all. But the problem is, grandpa has already fought for him this qualification, if he doesn't go, what reason and excuse does he have? He knew the outcome of this expedition to Goguryeo, but Zheng Shi'an and others could not know the ending.

In their eyes, going to Goguryeo was a good opportunity to earn military merits.

Yan Qing is now an official worshipping Yun Cavalry Captain, if he can earn military merits, it will be of great help to the future. The problem is that you can't earn military merits, don't even lose your surname...... Slow, come to protect the child? How can I have the impression that the conquest of Goguryeo has nothing to do with him.

"Grandpa, come to General Hu'er...... Tunza Donglai? ”

"yes."

"Isn't he going to gather in Zhuojun?"

"Oh, I don't know." Zheng Shi'an said: "Yuan Shou said that under the command of General Hu'er, the navy is the mainstay. After the first lunar month, the Great General will be stationed in Shape City...... I am afraid that this is the reason why you are assembled before the twenty-second day of the lunar month. ”

Yan Qing was a little stunned.

Where is the city of Shape?

He hesitated for a moment and asked softly, "Grandpa, who else did the family send over?" ”

"With Yuanshou's eldest son Zheng Xing as the head of the clan, you are the Sima of the army to assist Zheng Xing. In addition to the two of you, Hongyi may also have to pass.

There were also children from all sides, a total of 37 people, who led 800 Zheng clan groups to ...... Well, I want Shen Guang and the sea to follow you to Shabei City. ”

There is no doubt that Grandpa is a good intention.

But the problem is that Zheng Yanqing can't accept this kindness.

Going to Sap City to meet? A trolls?

Yan Qing felt that his head was a little confused, and when he fought Goguryeo, didn't he march from Liaodong and cross the Yalu River? How can there be an extra water army?

"Yanqing, what do you think?"

Seeing that Yanqing didn't answer, Zheng Shi'an couldn't help but ask.

Zheng Yanqing raised his head and said with a wry smile: "Grandpa, can I choose not to go?" ”

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone present, including Xiong Da Hammer, Wang Zheng, and Shen Guang, couldn't help but look at Zheng Yanqing in surprise.

This was a great opportunity to earn military merit, so why didn't he want to go?
