Chapter 131: Visit the head of the Li family
After returning to Langling City, Zhang Bao said to Ma Chao: "Meng Qi, you two brothers are temporarily following Li Ru to defend Yuzhou, and Zhao Yun is also with you." Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Zhang Xiu from Nanyang will also come over, you must obey Li Tingshi's dispatch, and there must be no disobedience! ”
"Subordinates take orders!" Ma Chao hugged his fists.
Zhang Bao nodded and said, "Okay, you will temporarily lead the troops to be stationed in Langling City, and wait for Wen You's order, and we will go first." ”
Ma Chao hugged his fists when he heard this: "Lord, are you returning to Fenggao?" ”
Zhang Bao nodded and said, "Go back to Fenggao first, and then sit in Luoyang." If you have something, you can send someone to Luoyang to find me. ”
"The subordinates understand, take care all the way!" Ma Chao hugged his fists.
Zhang Bao nodded and left with Jia Xu, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Dian Wei, and Lu Bu. Zhang Bao and his entourage returned to Shouchun City first, Zhang Bao ordered Gao Ran to lead the army to change guards with Zhang Xiu, and ordered Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan to hand over the army in their hands to Zhao Yun and Ma Dai, and then return to Shouchun to see him.
When Zhang Bao transferred troops under his command, he and Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Dian Wei visited the Li family with Li Ru's deputy, Li Feng, the former advisor of Yuan Shu.
The Li family is a very powerful family in Yuzhou, and the family industry is all over the counties of Yuzhou, and there are more than 30,000 domestic slaves alone, and they are famous local wealthy families in Yuzhou. Yuan Shu was able to gain a foothold in Yuzhou without the support of the Li family, who provided Yuan Shu with an unknown amount of grain, grass and funds. And Li Feng is the most outstanding talent among the younger generation of the Li family.
Zhang Bao found that there were few famous generals of Yuan Shu in history, take Li Feng in front of him as an example, Zhang Bao found that Li Feng was definitely a talent from Li Feng's speech and demeanor, he was not only good at strategy, but also a pseudo-general at the peak of body refining, which can be described as both civil and military. And the general Ji Ling is also an extremely high-force existence.
Seeing this situation, Zhang Bao sighed in his heart: It's not that Yuan Shu has no one under him, but that Yuan Shu's achievements are not enough for the people under his command to exert their strength, and they are not allowed to really step onto the stage of history. Among them, there is also the fault of Yuan Shu not making good use of people.
"Lord, the Li family has arrived." Li Feng took Zhang Bao to a vermilion gate, the door was more than three feet high, and there was a big stone lion squatting on each side of the door, and two strong house slaves were standing on each side. Just from the grandeur of the Li family's gate, Zhang Bao can feel the strength of the Li family.
"The second master is back!" After Li Feng took Zhang Bao and the four people to the door of the house, the four house slaves on both sides said in unison. Li Feng just nodded slightly, and took Zhang Bao and the four of them into the Li family.
The Li family is clearly a manor, with pavilions and pavilions in the courtyard, and a stream that flows in from nowhere. Zhang Bao followed Li Feng through the garden, came to a red corridor, and then walked more than 100 meters before coming to a three-story attic.
"Family master, Zhang Zhoumu has come to see you!" Li Feng came to the door and said loudly with his fists.
"Hahaha...... distinguished guests are not welcome when they come to the door! Why didn't Feng'er send someone to inform the old man in advance! Chirping! Before the door could be opened, an old man's laughter came from inside. After the door opened, Zhang Bao saw a white-haired square-faced old man wearing silver-white satin clothes and trousers.
"Zhangzhou Mu, please hurry up!" After the old man looked at Zhang Bao, he hurriedly said loudly by the door.
Hearing this, Zhang Bao smiled and hugged his fists and said, "The head of the Li family is fine!" Zhang Bao came uninvited, took the liberty of disturbing the retreat of the Li family master, and hoped that the Li family master would atone for his sins! ”
"Don't dare, don't dare! Zhang Zhoumu and the generals are please. Come on, serve good tea! The head of the Li family said enthusiastically.
Zhang Bao and the three Guan Yu brothers entered the Li family's luxurious living room and sat down. The head of the Li family invited Zhang Bao to sit on the upper seat, and he sat on the lower left side of Zhang Bao.
After the head of the Li family waited for everyone to sit down, he hugged his fist at Zhang Bao and said, "I don't know what Zhang Zhoumu is doing here?" But do you need the Li family to contribute? If Zhang Zhoumu has a place where the Li family needs to speak, the old man will definitely try his best to meet Zhang Zhoumu's needs. ”
Zhang Bao smiled when she heard this: "I am relieved to have the words of the head of the Li family!" I am here mainly to visit the head of the Li family. Li Jiagui is the head of the Yuzhou family, and his prestige in Yuzhou is very high, I hope that the head of the Li family can unite with the family with a good relationship to maintain the stability of Yuzhou, which is the greatest support for Zhang. ”
Hearing this, the head of the Li family laughed and said, "Hahaha......, Zhang Zhoumu originally came for this!" But Zhang Zhoumu is too worried! Zhang Zhoumu, please think about it, your current territory is so big, where has any family rebelled against you? ”
Zhang Bao first blinked when he heard this, and then touched his nose with his right hand and said, "This doesn't seem to be true!" Even if there were, it didn't erupt, at least for now. ”
Hearing this, the head of the Li family smiled and said, "Zhang Zhoumu, I won't tell you, you are a very great male lord!" You didn't rely on our families, but you defeated all the opponents in the Central Plains, and we admired you when we talked about it on weekdays!
We were afraid of you doing something to us, but we are slowly discovering that this worry is unnecessary, because you have never been embarrassed by the local family wherever you go, and it shows us your friendly attitude towards us.
Later, many children of the family went to work under you, and the talented ones were reused by you, which made us completely relieved. Now Zhang Zhoumu can come to the cold house in person, which shows that Zhang Zhoumu is indeed very friendly to our family. Zhang Zhoumu, please rest assured, the old man assures you that none of the families in the Yuzhou area dare to make trouble for you. ”
Zhang Bao hugged his fists when he heard this: "Hehe, thank you for the praise of the Li family master!" Thank you Li for your commitment! With your explanation and commitment, I can be regarded as having a heart disease today.
Actually, you know. It's not that I don't want to rely on the family, but when I was in Qingzhou before, my strength was low, there were few major generals, and I was young at the time, and everyone was not optimistic about my future, so no one supported me. But I understand what you're doing, after all, no one wants to put the family's future on a young man with little hope.
Later, I also discussed this matter with my subordinates and discussed how to solve this problem, which is also the reason why the Qingzhou recruitment order was introduced. I'm actually desperate for your support! It's true! But everyone wasn't optimistic about me before, and I can't use it! I can only do my best to show goodwill to the families everywhere.
Maybe I'm just a hard worker, since I became the Taishou of Donglai, I have been busy fighting in all directions, mainly because the princes of the Central Plains have brought me too much pressure, and I have to do this. Now that I have finally won a short period of peace, why don't I come to visit you in a hurry? I also want to learn from you about the Maison's attitude towards me. ”
"Rare! Rare! It's a rarity! I didn't expect Zhang Zhoumu to be in such a situation! In fact, Zhang Zhoumu said this, and the situation at that time was indeed like this! It's all us old fools who have no eyes, which has brought so much resistance to Zhang Zhoumu's unification of the world! Please rest assured that the old man will contact famous families in various places in the future, so that everyone can contribute money and strength, and will definitely give Zhangzhou Mu the greatest assistance. After Zhang Bao finished speaking, the head of the Li family looked at Zhang Bao with moist eyes and said excitedly.
Hearing this, Zhang Bao hurriedly got up and said, "There is no need for assistance!" I have received a lot of resources from the government treasury in various places, and I can still support it. I really hope that the head of the Li family can pass on my attitude towards the family! This will also prevent people from suspicion of one another. It is also conducive to our peaceful and prosperous life together. ”
"Please rest assured, the old decay will definitely live up to the trust of the state pastor!" The head of the Zhang family hugged his fists.
Zhang Bao then got up and smiled at the Li family master: "Now that the matter has been negotiated!" Then we won't bother the Li family master, we'll have a date later! ”
Seeing this, the head of the Li family hurriedly got up and said, "Zhang Zhoumu, can you finish eating with the generals before leaving?" You finally came to the humble house, and let the old man do his best to fulfill the friendship of the landlord! ”
Zhang Bao smiled and waved his hand: "No! The Assassin's Mansion has already prepared a meal, so we won't bother you when you're old! You are busy, Li Feng, you will stay at home and spend more time with your father in the past two days. I'll let Li Ru take care of it for you over there. ”
"Thank you, my lord!" Li Feng bowed and said.
Zhang Bao and the four of them left the Li house accompanied by Li Feng and the head of the Li family, and then the four of them left on a white wildebeest.
After Zhang Bao left, Li Feng told his father about Zhang Bao's attention to him and his kindness. The head of the Li family completely fell to Zhang Bao's side, and did his best to pass on Zhang Bao's friendship and expectations for the family.
After Zhang Bao waited for Gao Ran and Zhang Xiu to change guards, he returned to Dongpingling with Jia Xu and the three brothers Guan Yu, Lu Bu and the Xiahou brothers. (To be continued.) )
