With the northern tour of Yang Guang, the son of heaven, the campaign to pacify the bandits in various places has gradually entered a period of confrontation, in the Central Plains, the siege of the Wagang army has been carried out for several months, but because Yang Qing on the west road secretly sent a steady stream of food to the Wagang army, so that Zhang Xutuo's siege of the Wagang army has always been fruitless.

And in Jianghuai, Du Fuwei's army retreated to Huainan dormant, Zhang Xuan's army had just finished the campaign to exterminate Meng Haigong, returned to Jiangdu for renovation, and would not launch a new campaign for a period of time for the time being, in Jiangnan, Chen Ling's army could not defeat the rebellion of Shen Faxing supported by the people of Jiangnan, the two sides were in a state of confrontation, and in Hebei, Yang Yichen and Wang Shichong's respective armies were also confronting each other.

At the same time, small-scale rebellions by bandits in Hebei, the Central Plains, Bingzhou, Guanzhong, Longyou, Bashu, Jingxiang, and other places emerged one after another, and began to gradually expand, and the entire Great Sui was on the eve of a great turmoil about to break out.

The autumn of the eleventh year of the great cause has passed, and winter is coming, and in the second half of the twelve, the first heavy snow fell in Jiangdu.

The heavy snow, which had been pouring all night, stopped at dawn the next day, and the sun broke through the dark clouds and shone on the snow-capped city and fields, and the entire Jiangdu City seemed to be draped in a thick white coat, turning into a white and flawless ice and snow world.

As the sun came out, the march on the street gradually increased, after all, there are less than ten days before the New Year, every household is busy preparing New Year's sacrifices and New Year's goods, although due to the freezing of the northern rivers, the north-south waterway traffic is temporarily cut off, but the south city is still very lively, people who come to buy New Year's goods crowd every store.

Jang Xuan's house, like the rest of the house, was decorated with lanterns and was ready to celebrate the New Year with joy, red lanterns were hung, bamboo poles with red silk were also erected high, and the front and back of the house were cleaned.

At the gate, Lixiang and Ah Yuan each took a peach charm and posted it on the gate. Steward Xu next to him couldn't help but remind: "Ah Yuan girl, the peach charm is pasted on the left door first, and then on the right door, there is something particular!" ”

"What does it matter, I have to post it anyway! Just stick it neatly. ”

"No, it's mainly about a shun. Everyone is used to going from left to right, and if the peach charm is smooth, next year's New Year will be smooth. ”

Ah Yuan muttered, "According to what you say, those years were not going well because the peach talisman was not pasted well?" ”

At this time, Rika next to her pulled Ayuan's sleeve and pointed to the back, and everyone turned around. Only then did I find that a Turkic girl who was leading a horse came at the bottom of the steps, and I saw that she had a goose egg face, slightly dark skin, black hair with countless pigtails, a red octagonal hat, and a tight leather jacket and long skirt, tall and slender, and very fit. He wore a short sword studded with jewels at his waist, and led two very strong war horses behind him. Immediately there were bows and arrows.

She looked like she was sixteen or seventeen years old, and although the long journey made her look dusty, her jewel-like black eyes were unusually bright.

Everyone was stunned, why did a Turkic girl come?

"Excuse me"

The Turkic girl asked in her less proficient Chinese, "Is this Jang Hyun's home?" ”

"This is Jang Hyun's home, who are you?" Ah Yuan asked curiously.

The Turkic girl hesitated and said, "My name is Xin Yu, and I am from Bayegu. I came to my husband. ”

Although her Chinese was not very standard, everyone understood it and was even more surprised, and Ah Yuan asked again, "Who is your husband?" You're looking for the wrong one! ”

The girl shook her head, "I wasn't mistaken. My husband is Zhang Xuan, I went to Luoyang to find him, and the people of Luoyang said that he was a general here. ”

She glanced at the sign and was even more sure, "It's a solicitation!" ”

Everyone's eyes widened, Ah Yuan and Rika looked at each other even more, this Turkic girl actually said that the general was her husband, and the two of them turned around and ran towards the mansion almost at the same time, "Madam, it's amazing"

This Turkic girl is naturally Zhang Xuan's first love in the grassland Xin Yu, Zhang Xuan and her about three years of period has not yet arrived, but at the beginning of the year Xin Yu's mother died of illness, she gave her mother filial piety for ten months, and then set off to the Central Plains to find a lover according to her inner thoughts.

She went through a lot of hardships, came to Luoyang from the grassland, and then came to Jiangdu from Luoyang, and finally found Zhang Xuan's home, but she didn't know that her lover had already married a wife.

At this moment, Zhang Chuchen came back from outside on horseback, she turned over and dismounted, and saw two strong war horses at a glance, and then saw the Turkic girl in front of the war horse, Zhang Chuchen felt strange in his heart, so he asked Steward Xu, "Steward Xu, who is she looking for?" ”

Steward Xu hurriedly gave Zhang Chuchen a look, and whispered to her to the side: "This Turkic girl came to find the master, and she actually said that the master was her husband." ”

Open the dust and cover your mouth, 'Poof! I almost laughed out loud, does Jaang Hyun actually have a Turkic lady?

At this time, Zhang Chuchen's mind changed, and he suddenly remembered that Li Jing had told her an interesting story, Zhang Xuan had a girl in the ancient department of Baye who liked him very much, could it be her?

Zhang Chuchen thought for a while and asked with a smile: "Girl, you are from the shore of Julun Lake!" ”

Xin Yu's eyes lit up, "Sister, do you know me?" ”

A sister's cry was very sweet, Zhang Chuchen felt comfortable for a while, and said with a smile: "I heard Li Gongzi talk about it, it seems that General Zhang is in the ancient department of Baye"

"Yes!"

Xin Yu was even more excited, and hurriedly said: "I am from Baye Gu, my name is Xin Yu, and I came all the way to find Zhang Xuan!" ”

Zhang Chuchen completely understood, and was secretly proud in his heart, Zhang Xuan's retribution is coming, what to do with him? She had an idea of teasing Zhang Xuan in her heart, and smiled happily: "Zhang Xuan will not come back until tomorrow, this is his home, you can go in quickly!" ”

She took Xin Yu's hand and walked to the house, and smiled at the housekeeper: "Steward Xu, please take care of the horse." ”

Steward Xu didn't dare to beckon this Turkic girl into the mansion, but since the girl had orders, he naturally complied, in fact, he was quite sympathetic in his heart, and it was not easy to come to the master from such a far away place on the grassland!

Xin Yu did not refuse, she followed Zhang Zhuchen into the gate, she looked at Zhang Zhuchen, and asked curiously, "Are you Zhang Xuan's wife?" ”

Zhang Chuchen's face turned red, and he quickly shook his head, "I'm not a good friend of my wife." ”

Zhang Chuchen was secretly surprised in her heart, didn't she care that Zhang Xuan was married?

When Xin Yu inquired about Zhang Xuan in Luoyang, she knew that Zhang Xuan had already married a wife, but she didn't take it to heart, her father had more than a dozen wives, and her brother Tongtai also had five wives.

In her mind, polygamy is a sign of a man's hero, and only those men who are incompetent in war cannot marry a wife, or have only one wife, and there is not even a woman's booty.

At this time, Lu Qing hurriedly walked out, followed closely by Ah Yuan and Lixiang, they told the mistress that the general's lady in the grassland was coming, Lu Qing was also surprised at first, the husband never told himself that he had a wife in the Turks?

However, Lu Qing is a very smart person, she heard her husband say that he had been to the grassland for a month, when they met in Zhuo County, that is, her husband had just returned from the grassland, from the time Zhang Xuan stayed in the grassland, he should not have time to marry a wife, it should be that Ah Yuan and Lixiang misunderstood, and the husband that the Turkic girl said should refer to lovers.

Zhang Chuchen pulled Xin Yu over and said with a smile: "Sister Qing, this is Xin Yu's sister, she came from Julun Lake, and the general met her there, I heard Li Gongzi say that the general got a lot of help from her." ”

Zhang Chuchen is hinting that Lu Qing should not be too cold, this Xin Yu does have something to do with Zhang Xuan,

She smiled at Xin Yu again: "This is General Zhang's wife." ”

"It turns out that you are Sister Lu, I heard people talk about you in Luoyang, and you are really more beautiful than the swans in Kulun Lake!"

Xin Yu's face smiled as brightly as a wildflower on the grassland, Lu Qing suddenly felt the other party's innocence and simplicity, and he didn't understand the sarcasm in the Han language, and when others told her, it was a kind of ridicule, and she didn't realize it.

Lu Qing was amused and sentimental in her heart, which made her a little embarrassed, and hurriedly took her hand and smiled: "Where do I have a beautiful swan, you are beautiful, so healthy and energetic, welcome to the arrival of Sister Xin Yu, come!" Let's go and sit in the house. ”

Xin Yu fell in love with Lu Qing at once, she was so gentle, so soft-spoken, and so beautiful, there was no such beautiful woman on the grassland, Zhang Xuan really had eyesight.

She happily followed Lu Qing towards the inner house.

Ah Yuan and Rika were both surprised, they both thought that when this Turkic girl heard that the general was married, she would definitely make a fuss, cry and splash, and even draw a knife to threaten, but she didn't expect that she didn't care that the general was married.

The two stuck out their tongues and hurriedly waved their hands to the dozen or so nervous female guards hiding behind the door not far away, signaling that there was no problem with their housewife. (To be continued.) )
