The Zhang family is definitely one of the best families in Yongfeng, and Zhang Yannian is definitely a figure who stomps on the three armies in the Yongfeng military circle. But he is reserved and low-key. So much so that Yongfeng people only know the name of Erlang (Zhang Yannian's second son Zhang Ren), but they don't know that Erlang is famous because of his father.

Since he took leave to Zeng Chongyang to recuperate, Zhang Yannian has not been able to go out, and his protégés have refused to visit him. His son Zhang Ren is currently the commander of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, and the Xiao Cavalry Battalion is Zhang Yannian's protégé and nephew up and down.

"Dad, what are you worried about? Who can do anything to us at Yongfeng? Seeing his father lying in a daze all day long, Zhang Ren, who was in his prime, was very disdainful.

"You can only see the Xiaoqi Battalion in your eyes, that's Zhang Jiajun's good. But Yongfeng also has Ma Heshang's Fengya Battalion and Hou Jie's Yongfeng Battalion, are these two people also Zhang Jiajun? ”

"Hmph," Zhang Ren sneered, "The two of them are already lost dogs, and they can't live in fear." ”

Zhang Yannian's personal maid Yuxing twisted a hot towel and put it on Zhang Yannian's face, and when her beard was soft, she took out a delicate wooden comb and carefully began to comb her beard. Zhang Yannian has the reputation of "beautiful beard", Hu is nearly a foot long, and he is very careful in his daily care. When Yuxing bent down to comb his beard, her plump and round buttocks happened to face Zhang Ren, Zhang Ren swallowed his saliva, and a certain part suddenly reacted.

"Oops!" Yu Xing suddenly felt something hard against her buttocks, her heart fluttered, and the wooden comb pulled off Zhang Yannian's two beards.

"Smack!" Zhang Yannian slapped Yuxing fiercely, "Useless thing!" Get out! Zhang Yannian jumped up, grabbed the towel and threw it at Yuxing. Yu Xing had nowhere to complain about her grievances, and withdrew with red circles.

"Last night, Mahshan asked you for a drink?" Zhang Ren's little action naturally couldn't hide from Zhang Yannian's eyes, but he didn't want to dwell on these details now.

"Yes, please, the whole family is here, and let his daughter recognize me as a godfather?" Zhang Ren said with some smugness. Ma Heshang is the person left by Meng Bochang to Yang Hao, and he has always regarded himself as a descendant. Zhang Yannian has always been lukewarm, this time he took the initiative to invite himself to the home banquet, and his wife and daughter sang and danced together during the banquet, how much face did this give him?

"What do you think about this?"

The old father's words made Zhang Ren quite puzzled, "This, this is a good thing!" ”

"You think that's a good thing?" Zhang Yannian's face suddenly turned cold, and he suddenly shouted, "Confused! ”

Zhang Ren was a little unconvinced, and stood up angrily and shouted, "You say, why am I confused?" ”

"He's going to roast your father on the fire." Zhang Yannian saw Zhang Ren's stunned appearance, and he was even more angry. His three sons, the eldest Yingwu Zhibing, the eldest Sanfeng Yanengwen, and Tiansheng Yingcai, the two sons all died first. The second child is as strong as a cow and does not suffer from all diseases, but he is also an unsuccessful gentleman.

This son can't understand, now that Yang Hao has fallen, Zeng Chongyang is determined to clean them up. It's too late for them to change the court, and they dare to roast you on the fire? ”

Zhang Yannian shook his head, and was very reluctant to entangle with him anymore, so he sighed heavily.

Zhang Ren pouted, pouting and saying, "I know you look down on me, but what can you do?" Who let the eldest brother and third brother die young, and you are left with me, an unsuccessful son?

"Get out!" Zhang Yannian roared, trembling with anger.

"Just go, take care of your body when you are old. Where did everyone die?! Come in and serve the master. A group of maids and maids who were hiding outside the door hurried in.

Everyone rubbed their hearts and fed tea, and after a long period of chaos, Zhang Yannian eased up. At this moment, the housekeeper Zhang Zicheng hurriedly entered and whispered a few words in Zhang Yannian's ear. Zhang Yannian was startled, and hurriedly waved his hand and sent the maids out.

"Hurry up, get my official uniform."

"Master, aren't you recuperating at home?" Zhang Zicheng reminded.

"You can't hide it from others."

――――――――――

The Huwei Hall of the Fengzhou Defense Embassy was originally a very solemn and solemn place, but now it has been changed into a song and dance field by Li Shaoqing. However, Feng'an is a small place, and it is not easy to find a few decent singers.

The Danda people went to the Feng'an County Ya to ask the county commander Zhu Xiangnan for a singer, but Zhu Xiangnan sternly refused.

Annoyed and angry, Zhu Xiaonan stripped off his official robe and let him kneel to the gate of the county government with his bare back. Zhu Xiaonan refused to obey, and the people surrounded him and insulted him. Fu Yi, the county lieutenant, led the Ya to catch the fish quickly and recaptured Zhu Xiaonan from the hands of the Tanda people, and pulled out a posture of a dead fish and a broken net.

Li Shaoqing ordered the execution of several soldiers who went to the county government to make trouble, and sent Li Guo to the county government to publicly apologize on his behalf, and compensated the county government gate that was damaged by the soldiers at a discount.

Zeng Chongyang arrived in a hurry the day after Li Shaoqing entered the city, and he was pursued by the rebels of the Tiger Battalion outside Feng'an City, if it were not for the misjudgment of Wang Qun, he would probably have been taken prisoner of the rebels. The Feng'an Defense Embassy was occupied by Li Shaoqing, and Zeng Chongyang wanted to occupy the Feng'an County Ya's Office, but Zhu Xiangnan pushed him back. As a last resort, he had to rent a house for the office.

Knowing that Li Shaoqing couldn't ask Zhu Xiaonan for a singer, Zeng Chongyang sent someone to order Zhu Xiangnan as a messenger, asking him to send ten singers to the Guiyi Army Dental Office within three days. Zhu Xiaonan ordered the herald to be beaten forty times on the spot and thrown into the county jail. Zeng Chongyang was furious when he heard this, and sent Zhu Qi to lead the Qin to send guards to get Zhu Xiaonan. Zhu Qi had just gone out, but Zhu Xiaonan came to the door alone.

Zeng Chongyang sat in the hall and asked sharply: "Why did you beat the herald sent by Ben Qin? ”

Zhu Xiaonan replied without humility or arrogance: "This person went to the county government to give an order, but he didn't have any tokens on him. The order passed on was absurd, and he was judged to be a charlatan who wanted to fish in troubled waters. ”

Zeng Chongyang snorted: "That Qin Cha is telling you now that he was indeed sent by me, and the order he passed on is also my original intention to follow you." You can do it now. ”

Zhu Xiangnan said: "Although the county official is small, he is a pro-people official of the Tang Dynasty, how can an official who is close to the people harm the people?" ”

Zeng Chongyang sneered: "Looking for a few singers is harming the people?" Master Zhu, why don't I understand what you say? ”

Zhu Xiangnan said: "The Guiyi Army is the Guiyi Army of my Tang Dynasty, and Li Shaoqing is a minister of the Tang Dynasty. The Tang garrison openly asked the Tang Dynasty official office for the singer, may I ask Lord Qincha, is there such an article in the imperial court regulations? ”

Zeng Chongyang smiled: "Zhu Xianling can be eloquent, I admit that I can't say anything about you." However, the teachings of the saints are all spoken to the common people, and they are used to do things for the officials. During the Anshi Rebellion, Emperor Suzong once said to the Uighurs who came to help in the war: 'After the city is broken, the land and the people will belong to the Tang Dynasty, and the wealth and children will belong to you. Therefore, the Uighurs were brought together to concentrate on quelling the rebellion with their lives. If according to what Zhu County's order said, but Emperor Suzong also did something wrong? ”

Zhu Xiaonan protested: "This time is also that time." ”

Zeng Chongyang also shouted: "This time is no different from the past!" ”

Zhu Xiaonan didn't want Zeng Chongyang to be so stubborn, so he was speechless for a while. Zeng Chongyang saw that he didn't speak, so he breathed a sigh of relief a little and continued: "I know that Yang Hao simply promoted you as an official, but you are an official of the Tang Dynasty, not an official of Yang Hao!" Those who are loyal to officials should be the head, and those who are loyal to officials must be loyal to their fathers. ”

Zhu Xiaonan said: "It is precisely because the lower officials are the officials of the Tang Dynasty that the lower officials dare not obey the orders of the adults." Zhu Xiaonan's loyalty to His Majesty is clear, and it is precisely because of his loyalty that the lower officials dare not obey his orders. ”

"To disobey me is to disobey the Holy Command! Disobedience is beheaded! Zeng Chongyang roared.

"Hmph," Zhu Xiaonan sneered, and took off the official hat on his head with both hands: "The lower official is willing to accept the guilt." ”

――――――――――

"Tuk Tuk—"

"Haha, open the door, beauty! Yang Lang is back! ”

A few drunken Tanda soldiers were kicking and banging on the back door of the Fengzhou Defense Embassy, while shouting uncleanly.

"Grandma's, it's going to be messing around again." Lu Rui burst into a foul language.

"Where are all those people in the Agni Camp dead, people who usually look like dogs, but there is no one hiding at this time." Dong Yu scolded and scolded, but at the same time sent Master Guan a wooden stick to the top of the door.

"Yang Lang let the emperor slaughter Lao Tzu, you are all widows, open the door, let my brother come in and accompany you......"

"You Lao Tzu let the emperor Lao Tzu kill him!" Dongyu couldn't help but curse through the wall.

"Yo he......" The soldiers outside the door screamed strangely, whistles came and went, and the winter rain trembled.

"Don't fall for them, girl, the more you scold them." Master Guan is an old man with rich experience, and he seems unhurried in the face of harassment by the rebels.

"Master Guan is right, they originally meant to harass us. The more you answer, the more proud they become, and if we don't speak, they will naturally retreat. ”

"Miss Yunlai is right, if they wanted to come in, they would have rushed in long ago." Master Guan put the door on the top, and then pulled a bench and sat in the foyer, like a god, awe-inspiring and inviolable. He picked up his small teapot and took a sip of tea, and when he saw Dongyu still standing in the courtyard, he waved his hand: "Go back to the house quickly, I can't hear the sound, they should throw bricks." ”

Dongyu's face changed, and he hurriedly hugged his head and ran back to the main room. As soon as I ran under the eaves of the porch, I heard a "dang" sound, and half a brick flew in from outside the wall and smashed on the goldfish bowl.

"Yo he, Yang Lang's head is broken...... "There was another strange cry outside the wall.

"Mom, Master Guan is really a god." Dongyu swallowed his tongue and broke out in a cold sweat.

"The old man is the star in the sky, and with his old man to protect us, we will be safe." Li Yunlai reassured. When Zeng Chongyang was in charge of Feng'an, although he was cold to Qing'er and others, he didn't make any radical moves in the end. As soon as Li Shaoqing came, the fire battalion guarding the embassy was driven out by the Tanda soldiers, and without the guards, those drunken Tanda soldiers harassed outside the courtyard gate day and night. Qing'er was worried that Yang Hao was frightened again, and she couldn't afford to be sick. Fortunately, the old man was taking care of him outside, and Li Yunlai was assertive, so he stabilized people's hearts and didn't mess up by himself.

Qing'er, who was lying on the sickbed, heard this, smiled helplessly, and said to Li Yunlai: "Originally, I was asked to take care of your sisters, but in the end, you were taking care of me. I ...... in my heart."

Li Yunlai was afraid that she would be sad again, so she hurriedly interrupted her words and comforted her: "Captain Guan has left the city and gone south, he is such a capable person, there must be a way to rescue the adult." Now there is chaos outside, but this also shows that Zeng Chongyang can't suppress the scene, so he asked the Da people to help. I think it's probably because the adults are coming back soon, otherwise who would dare to go against the minister? ”

Qing'er felt a little relieved when she heard this. There was a dull sound of trumpets in the distance, and the Guiyi army was about to close the camp gate, and the group of drunks outside the door finally went crazy for a while, and then gradually lost their voices.

The night was getting darker and the cold was pressing, but everyone didn't feel sleepy.

After drinking a pot of tea, Master Guan was about to refill the water, "Tuk Tuk," someone knocked on the door.

"Who?" Master Guan asked unhurriedly.

"Master Guan, it's me, shallow water clear." The voice outside the door seemed to be urgent.

"Oh, it's Miss Shuiqing, you wait, I'll open the door."

Things in the world are always so unpredictable. Just a few days ago, Qing'er was still so disdainful of associating with Shallow Shuiqing, a woman who had fallen into the dust, a woman who combined beauty and talent, and a woman who stayed by her husband's side to do a book...... How can a wife who is a wife of such a woman not have a trace of sour jealousy?

But now what I want to hear most is her voice, and this flying catastrophe has changed many things, including erasing the distance between each other's hearts. It turns out that Asamizu Qing is kind, upright, and trustworthy, and it was she who ventured to find Guan Suo and inform Yang Hao that she had been arrested. It was under her strong maneuvering that Li Shaoqing issued a death order to restrain his subordinates from invading the backyard......

I can't imagine what it would be like now without Shallow Water Qing, as a woman, Qing'er can't imagine what price she will pay for doing this, this favor is worth repaying for her life.

Asamizu Kiyoshi ran in in a dance skirt and barefoot, sweating on her forehead, as if she had trotted all the way.

"Madame, pack up and come with me." Shallow Water Qing said hurriedly after entering the door.

"Don't worry, take your time." Li Yunlai took the tea bowl handed by Li Jasmine and held it in front of Shallow Shuiqing, "Take a sip of tea and moisten your throat." ”

Shallow Shui Qing was indeed very thirsty, she took the tea bowl and poured two sips, wiped her mouth with her sleeve, and hurriedly said: "Li Shaoqing asked Elder Fuyuan of Xiangfu Temple to come to the city to give a lecture, I begged the elder to save Mrs. out, the elder agreed, and now the sedan chair is outside the north gate, please Mrs. go quickly." ”

"This-" Everyone looked at each other, and not far from the north gate of the embassy was a military camp of the Guiyi Army, from where the group of drunken soldiers came just now.

"Madame, don't you believe me?" The shallow water is clear and his face is sad.

"Help me up," Qing'er thought for a moment and made a decision, Xiaoyu and Lu Rui hurriedly helped her up, "I don't want anything, let's go now." ”

Asamizu Qing burst into tears and rushed to lead the way.

As soon as everyone was discharged from the hospital, they heard a broken shout: "Stop, where are you going?" Suddenly, thirty or forty soldiers rushed out of the shadows and surrounded the people.
