Chapter 6 Mountain Rain is Coming (Revised Version)
Zheng Yanqing has never met Zheng Chang, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't know Zheng Chang.
In An Yuan Tang, he had to pay attention to everyone. Especially those big names in An Yuantang, they have to think about it even more. In his previous life, nearly 20 years of career made him develop the habit of paying attention everywhere. He is now just a lowly slave, and his surname is almost completely in the hands of others, and if he does not look at words and feelings, he will definitely come to great trouble.
Fortunately, he is just a child, and the people of An Yuantang will not deliberately avoid Yanqing when they speak.
According to what I learned from others, Zheng Chang's surname is not the same as Zheng Dashi. Zheng Dashi's surname is bold, and although he is cautious and careful, he will not stick to the details. And Zheng Chang is meticulous and will not be easy to express.
In other words, Zheng Chang is a bit yin.
A few months ago, he said that he had a great future, but suddenly he lost his official position.
If it were another person, Yan Qing might not care. But Zheng Chang is different, he is the number two person in An Yuantang, and his status is not trivial. At least for now, Yanqing's fate is linked to An Yuantang, so he has to pay more attention. For some reason, he always felt that there was a secret hidden in this matter.
After dinner, Zheng Shi'an went to sleep.
After all, he is not young, and his affairs are complicated, and his mood is unhappy, which inevitably leads to fatigue.
Zheng Yanqing was sitting in the patio, looking up at the twinkling stars, but he was thinking about Zheng Chang in his heart.
"Yanqing, why don't you go back to your room to rest?"
Mother Xu walked up to him, holding a half-sleeved shoulder in her hand, and put it on for Yanqing. Then, she said gently: "Yanqing, you seem to have something on your mind?" ”
"Mother Xu, the second master is coming back!"
Mother Xu looked at Zheng Yanqing's eyes, always gentle and kind, as if she was looking at her own child.
Yan Qing vaguely knew that Xu's mother also had a son who was about the same age as herself, but now his whereabouts were unknown.
Mother Xu said: "I heard about this matter, the second master is unhappy in Taiyuan, and it is normal to come back." ”
"But I always find it weird."
"Weird?"
Mother Xu couldn't help laughing, rubbed Yan Qing's little head and said, "How old are you, do you know what weirdness is?" ”
"I ......"
Zheng Yanqing couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.
Herein lies the problem. He's only five years old now, and it's only strange to be trying to mature. This also makes it impossible for Yanqing to express his opinions freely, and if some things are said, it will backfire.
Don't say it, it's like a fish in the throat.
"Mother Xu, don't you think it's strange?
A few months earlier, the second master also reported to his family, saying that he was doing well in Taiyuan, why was he suddenly dismissed from his official position? ”
A strange brilliance flashed in Xu Ma's eyes, and she glanced at Yan Qing.
"The ancients said that a companion is like a tiger.
The heart of this emperor's family, how can we allow such a small person to guess? Maybe the second master said the wrong thing and did the wrong thing, so he was dismissed from his official position. This is originally a normal thing, what are you thinking about in your little brain? ”
Xu Ma said and stood up.
"It's late at night, rest early, don't think nonsense.
In a few months, it will be the New Year...... But also, I heard that the second master has not been back for six or seven years. ”
New Year, New Year!
Zheng Shi'an said that he would take Luoyang after the New Year, and Xu's mother also mentioned the New Year.
Yan Qing suddenly remembered that it had been three years of Renshou. In another year, Emperor Wen of Sui seemed to be about to die, and Emperor Yang of Sui ascended the throne.
Yang Liang, the king of Han, Emperor Wen of Sui died, and Emperor Yang of Sui ascended the throne......
When these three people were connected in series, Zheng Yanqing seemed to understand all of a sudden.
I remember that when Emperor Yang of Sui ascended the throne, Yang Liang, the king of Han, rebelled, but was quickly suppressed by Yang Guang. Yang Liang is the marshal of the marching army and the governor of the state, holding the elite soldiers of the north and having strong strength. In terms of military merits, he is not inferior to Yang Guang; In terms of prestige, he is not necessarily worse than Yang Guang. The deposition of the crown prince Yang Yong may also make Yang Liang feel a trace of fear.
Therefore, at the beginning of the year, Yang Liang admonished Emperor Wen of Sui and said: "The Turks are strong, immediately make Taiyuan an important town, and it is advisable to repair military equipment." ”
Zheng Shi'an also said in private: "This time, the King of Han can be regarded as mastering the elite of Bingzhou. ”
Yan Qing didn't care about this matter at the time, and he didn't think about the worst.
But now, Zheng Chang's return has had an impact on him, making him have to take this issue seriously.
If Zheng Chang has ulterior motives, it is likely to bring disaster to An Yuantang.
For a while, Yan Qing seemed to have understood the true intention of Zheng Chang's return this time......
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Xingyang, to be precise, should be Xingzhou.
It is an important town in the hinterland of the Central Plains and has an extremely long history.
After the vicissitudes of life, the wind and clouds have changed. On the one hand, Xingyang accepted the baptism of war, and on the other hand, it grew up in the war.
Gradually, it has become the eastern barrier of Luoyang, and together with Daliang and Luoyang, it stands majestically in the Central Plains.
Zheng Chang returns as scheduled!
Yan Qing was powerless to stop this.
On the day Zheng Chang arrived in Xingyang, he followed the Zheng family up and down and greeted him outside the door.
Dozens of carriages stopped at the gate of Anyuan Hall. Boxes of items were moved down from the car, which made Zheng Yanqing secretly frightened.
This is like a down-and-out person, who is clearly returning home!
Zheng is over forty years old, and he is dignified and slightly thin. With three strands of black beard under his chin, a green shirt and a brocade robe, he shows his outstanding temperament. Compared with Zheng Dashi's slightly old appearance, this Zheng Chang is more energetic.
Behind Zheng Chang, followed by two people.
One is literate and one martial, one is fat and one is thin.
The fat ones are dressed as scribes, and they always have a harmless smile on their faces, which makes people feel good; And the thin man in the power suit, thin and strong, not too tall, but gives people a strong sense of strength. Zheng Dashi and Zheng Chang greeted each other at the door, and then held hands and walked into the door of An Yuan Hall together. But when the thin man walked past Yan Qing, Yan Qing's heart trembled, and he instinctively took a step back...... Because, he felt a strong coercion.
This kind of coercion is the power generated by the strength of qi and blood.
The so-called strong blood and majesty are not unreasonable.
Imagine a person with exhausted qi and blood, how can it make people feel stressed?
When an old man and a prime of life stand in front of you, the sense of oppression generated by the prime of life is far from being comparable to that of an old man.
The reason for this is the word "blood".
And the lean warrior glanced at Yan Qing the moment he walked over, frowning slightly.
Thinking about it, he also noticed the fluctuations of qi and blood in Yan Qing's body, but looking at Yan Qing's dress, it was a small girl's outfit, so he had doubts. But after thinking about it again, the Zheng family of Anyuan Hall is to set up a martial arts court, and the small family practices martial arts, which is reasonable...... It is not uncommon for a big family to not cultivate some confidants and teach the exercises.
However, generally speaking, non-descendant clansmen are at most teaching foundation-building exercises.
Yan Qing is now in the foundation building stage, so the samurai only frowned and didn't take Yan Qing to heart.
But this glance was enough to make Yan Qing feel frightened.
What a sharp eye!
As if you can see through your own heart, is this the so-called master?
Yan Qing sighed secretly in his heart, but his face was very calm,
He pretended to be fine, and watched the servants unload the boxes from the wagon and deliver them one by one. In total, there are 100 large wooden boxes. Judging from the steps of the servants, the contents of these boxes are not easy.
"Brother Junjing, let me help you."
Yan Qing said to a familiar servant.
"Yanqing, don't make a mess...... This box is so heavy that you can't move it.
If I was hurt, the old butler would definitely blame me. Go and stay around, we'll be enough here.
"Brother Junjing, what is this thing, so heavy?"
Jun Jing saw that no one was paying attention to the surroundings, and said softly: "There was a box scattered in the inner house just now, and it was full of fine Shu brocade and gold. I guess it's because of this that the second master was dismissed...... Don't tell anyone. ”
A person who has been removed from his official position has so much wealth?
During the Sui Dynasty, the currency commonly used in the market was a copper coin called the Sui two baht, but most of them were used for circulation in the world.
In addition, it is more calculated in gold silk.
If these more than 100 chests were full of gold and brocade, how many should there be?
Zheng Chang was rushed back!
Even if the Han King Yang is generous, I am afraid that he will not be allowed to come back with so many goods. Also, the two people who accompanied him didn't seem to be simple. A dignified master would actually make an entourage for a criminal officer? Yanqing couldn't believe it.
As for the fat man, he seemed to be very kind.
But Yan Qing always felt that there was a gloomy look in those triangular eyes.
Anyuan Hall, it seems that the mountain rain is about to come, and the wind is full of buildings......;
