Zhang Yan stayed with Mi Zhen for a long time, but because Mi Zhen was pregnant, he did not stay overnight here, but went directly to the house where Diao Chan lived.

When the housekeeper and slave maid saw Zhang Yan coming, they wanted to report it, but they were stopped by Zhang Yan, saying that they were going to give Diao Chan a surprise.

Zhang Yan walked straight to the door of Diao Chan's room, the door was not closed, and the moment he appeared at the door, he smelled a smell of herbs and rushed to his face.

At this time, Diao Chan was holding a pottery bowl and drinking medicine.

Zhang Yan frowned, and said in his heart: "Diao Chan is healthy, no disasters and no diseases, what kind of medicine do you drink?" ”

He walked straight in, and saw that Diao Chan had already drunk all the medicine, so he asked, "Diao Chan, what are you drinking?" ”

Seeing Zhang Yan's sudden arrival, Diao Chan was a little panicked, and hurriedly said, "It's not ...... It's nothing, the concubine occasionally felt cold last night, and her body was a little reluctant, so she let the maids boil some medicine to ward off the cold. General, aren't you busy at this time of the day, how do you have time to come over today? ”

Zhang Yan said: "There are relatively few government affairs today, so it was dealt with early. Diao Chan, the weather is getting colder and colder, you pay more attention to your body, don't get sick. ”

"The concubine is grateful for the rank of general, the concubine will definitely take good care of herself."

As he spoke, Diao Chan pulled over a stool, pressed Zhang Yan to sit on the stool, stretched out a pair of slender jade hands, put them on Zhang Yan's shoulders, and kneaded Zhang Yan's shoulders.

"The general is busy with government affairs, and the concubine is insignificant compared to the general, so the general should pay more attention to the body."

The soft words rang in Zhang Yan's ears, and Diao Chan had a faint fragrance. Refreshing. Let Zhang Yandun feel refreshed.

Since Mi Zhen became pregnant. Zhang Yan stays here almost every day, and Diao Chan is very good at serving people, even if Zhang Yan has any troubles, as soon as he comes here, he completely disappears, and this place seems to have become a place for him to relax.

Located in the outer city of Pengcheng, this mansion is an inconspicuous dwelling with only two courtyards. The front yard is inhabited by the housekeeper and the maidservant, and the backyard is the exclusive place of the sable cicada, the sable cicada is usually fine, and will plant flowers and plants in the open land in the courtyard.

Every time Zhang Yan rewarded her, she sealed it up, and she didn't touch it. And she's very empathetic. I like Zhang Yan very much.

This is quiet, and it can be regarded as a place for Zhang Yan's self-cultivation. There is no intrigue in the court, and there is no Jin Ge Iron Horse in the military camp, everything is so calm, and Diao Chan himself is also very measured, never asking anything, coming here is equivalent to enjoying happiness.

"General Qiyu, Captain Xu Sheng of the City Gate asks to see you!" A servant girl came to the door, bowed slightly, and said.

Zhang Yan was closing her eyes and recuperating, letting Diao Chan help her knead her shoulders, and was enjoying this massage, when she suddenly heard the maid's report, she opened her eyes and said to the maid: "Let him wait for me in the hall, and I'll go over!" ”

"Whoa!" The handmaid answered, turned and left.

Zhang Yan slowly stood up and said to Diao Chan: "Xu Sheng came here to find me, there must be something important, I'll go and see it first!" ”

Diao Chan said: "The general's official business is important, hurry up and get busy!" ”

Zhang Yan lowered his head, kissed Diao Chan, left the room with a smile, and when he left, he took away the pottery bowl where Diao Chan drank medicine without realizing it.

Coming to the hall in the front yard, Xu Sheng was already waiting there, Zhang Yan saw Xu Sheng's nervous face, so he asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Xu Sheng immediately hugged his fists and said: "Lord, Guanzhong is urgent!" ”

After speaking, Xu Sheng presented a secret report and handed it to Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan took the secret report, opened it and took a look, only then did he know that this secret report was a handwritten letter written by Duan Xuan, the general of Ning Ji, which mentioned that after Li Dao and Guo Yan returned to Guanzhong, instead of making progress, they intensified and poisoned the people, so that Guanzhong withered, the houses were dilapidated, and the two were at odds again, and they fought around Chang'an.

"Where did this letter come from?" After Zhang Yan read it, he asked.

Xu Sheng said: "It was sent by a scout from Henan Yin, saying that someone shot this letter into Hangu Pass." In addition, Henan Yin also asked the scout to bring a message to the lord, saying that this is a good time, and I hope the lord will make a decision as soon as possible! ”

Henan Yin is currently held by Zhang Hong, and Zhang Hong is also suspended as one of the Shaofu of Jiuqing. Since it was sent by Zhang Hong, it means that this information cannot be wrong.

Zhang Yan immediately made a decision, and immediately left Diao Chan's mansion with Xu Sheng, and when he left, he asked someone to inform Diao Chan that he might come back very late, and don't let Diao Chan wait for him.

At the same time as returning to the General's Mansion, Zhang Yan had already sent someone to invite Jia Xu and Mi Fang to arrive. It just so happened that Mi Fang was complaining about his low official position and wanted to go through Mi Zhen's relationship to seek an official, Zhang Yan knew that the Mi family helped him a lot, if it weren't for the Mi family, he wouldn't have such a big shili now.

Zhi'en Tubao, as long as Mi Fang doesn't do anything out of the ordinary, some requirements can still be met.

So, Zhang Yan wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to let Mi Fang send troops to Guanzhong and establish meritorious service, so that he would not be left behind if he was promoted to his official position.

After about a stick of incense, Jia Xu and Mi Fang came to the hall of the General's Mansion one after another, Xu Sheng was already standing there, and Zhang Yan was sitting high in the top position.

"See the lord!" Jia Xu and Mi Fang bowed in unison.

Zhang Yan said: "No courtesy." I summoned you here this time because I have important matters to discuss, so I won't say anything superfluous, and go straight to the point. I received a secret report that the rebels in Guanzhong, Li Dao and Guo Yan, exchanged troops again, and Duan Xuan, the general of Ningji who was stationed in Huayin, also sent people to come, saying that they wanted to join the imperial court, you are all my henchmen, Jia Xu is the captain of Sili, and Xu Sheng is the captain of the city gate, and they are all busy with official business and cannot leave. I think about it, and only Mi Fang can do it. I don't know if you are willing to lead the troops to Guanzhong and pacify the two traitors Li Dao and Guo Yan for me? ”

The words were very clear, Mi Fang also listened very carefully, he was complaining that his official position was too low, and went to find Mi Zhen, Mi Zhen not only did not solve it for himself, but quarreled with him, which made him very unhappy.

Now, Zhang Yan suddenly handed over this important task to Mi Fang, for Mi Fang, it was like a big pie falling from the sky!

"Thanks to the lord's weight, Mi Fang is willing to lead the army to Guanzhong instead of the lord, and he will definitely set the gate for the lord and kill the two traitors Li Dao and Guo Yan!" Mi Fang hugged his fists.

Zhang Yan nodded and said: "Although Li Dao and Guo Yan are already at the end of the crossbow, their subordinates are all people who can recruit and fight habitually, your official position is to be a captain, and the leader is only a regiment. In addition, I will also transfer you two staff officers, one is Yuan Lian and the other is Kan Ze, no matter what kind of things you encounter in the process of marching, you must discuss with Yuan Lian and Kan Ze first, and then make a decision, remember not to be greedy for merit! ”

Mi Fang nodded heavily, and said loudly: "Don't worry, my lord, Mi Fang keep it in mind!" ”

Zhang Yan then said something to Jia Xu and Xu Sheng, roughly to strengthen the defense of Pengcheng and strengthen the training of the army, and the two were quickly sent away.

Mi Fang saw that Jia Xu and Xu Sheng were gone, and she and Zhang Yan had nothing to do, so she turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Zhang Yan: "You wait a minute, I have something to tell you." ”

Mi Fang turned around and stood quietly in the hall, waiting until Jia Xu and Xu Sheng walked away, Zhang Yan got up and walked in front of Mi Fang, and said with a kind face: "Second brother, she told me everything you said to Mi Zhen, don't blame her, she is also thinking about the overall situation." You and my eldest brother are both my relatives and the people I rely on, and the reason why I don't take you to charge into battle every time I fight, but let you escort grain and grass in the back is because I am afraid that you will have an accident on the battlefield. The task I gave you this time is a heavy task, once Guanzhong is pacified, you will lead the army to garrison Guanzhong and spy on Liangzhou and Yizhou for me, so you must be cautious and don't live up to my high hopes for you! ”

"Don't worry, I will definitely not live up to the high expectations that my lord has placed on me, and I will be able to complete the task of the main bus trust, and the lord will wait for my good news in Pengcheng!" Mi Fang said with an oath.

Zhang Yan patted Mi Fang's shoulder, but didn't say anything.

After sending Mi Fang away, Zhang Yan returned to the back hall, went to see Mi Zhen, and informed Mi Zhen of the important task entrusted to Mi Fang.

After Mi Zhen heard this, she was taken aback, and immediately asked, "Husband, why didn't you discuss it with me in advance when you did this?" ”

Zhang Yan frowned and asked, "I want to discuss with you?" ”

Mi Zhen said: "Husband, I can't take care of other people's affairs, and I don't want to care, but when it comes to my second brother's affairs, I absolutely can't sit idly by." My second brother is a person who is very happy, and he must not lead the troops alone, but he can be supervised by others, and now his husband suddenly entrusts the second brother with a heavy responsibility, and no one above presses him, I am afraid that the second brother will be more auspicious! ”

Zhang Yan said: "Madam, please rest assured, I have already told him very clearly, and I sent Yuan Jian and Kan Ze as staff officers, and instructed him to make a decision only after discussing everything with Yuan Jian and Kan Ze......

"Husband, the concubine asks her husband to quickly take back his fate, even if he lets the second brother go to Guan Zhonggong, he can't be sent alone, and he needs to appoint someone to lead the army, someone must press him, otherwise the second brother is easy to ......be arrogant."

"It's hard to recover when it's covered with water, and besides, how can you say that you can take it back? However, don't worry, I have my own arrangements, so I will pass on the order to let Mi Fang return to Henan Yin Zhanghong for moderation, so it's always okay, right? ”

Mi Zhen nodded and didn't say anything more, but her heart was really up.

Zhang Yan comforted Mi Zhen for a few words, then left the mansion and went straight to Diao Chan, accompanied by Diao Chan, all the troubles disappeared.

Since it was a spring supper, I won't mention it anymore...... (To be continued......)
