Like the description of Yang Mansion Menzi, our Yang Zheng Yang Young Master is not amazing - dry and thin and obscene and his father are simply made out of the same mold, but in terms of dress, Yang Young Master is extraordinary, Shu brocade's straight sleeves are fluttering, the collar is embroidered, and the silk underwear worn inside is slightly exposed, luxurious but never fancy, Luo silk hakama, ribbon inlaid with jade, the color silk jade pendant is not ordinary, the crown of Duliang Jinxian is painted brightly, not big or small, it is obviously custom-made, Even the cloud toe boots are embroidered with exquisite patterns with gold threads, and a dress is worth thousands of dollars, which is by no means affordable for ordinary wealthy families.

What impressed Yang Song and Yang Bai brothers even more was the graceful and luxurious temperament of Young Master Yang's gestures, which was both polite and polite, but also noble and elegant, and by the way, he stretched out his hand and raised his legs, so that people could smell the taste of his noble son from a few miles away, Yang Song and Yang Bai brothers can be regarded as well-informed, but even in Yizhou, which is known as the country of abundance, the Yang brothers have never seen such a rich man with such temperament and demeanor.

There is also something that satisfies the Yang family brothers, such a noble young master Yang entered the hall, only glanced at the hall, and immediately respectfully knelt down in front of Yang Song, solemnly kowtowed, and said politely: "Little nephew Yang Zheng, meet the uncle of the same sect, uncle Jin An." ”

After finishing speaking, Yang Zheng knelt down and turned his body again, plunged his head into Yang Bai, and said more respectfully: "If the little nephew is not bad, this must be Yang Bai's second uncle, right?" The little nephew Yang Zheng visited the second uncle of the same sect. Second uncle Jin An. ”

Yang Zheng was so polite, as soon as they met, he kowtowed and called himself a junior, and when he saw that he was not here to borrow money from relatives in the autumn wind, Yang Song and Yang Bai brothers were of course very satisfied, and they left the table together to pick up Yang Zheng, and asked curiously: "Virtuous nephew, where are you from?" Where is the home? What is the relationship with our Hanzhong Yang family? ”

"The two uncles forgave their sins, and the little nephew was careless, and he actually forgot to report himself." Yang Zheng apologized, kowtowed again, and said, "Two uncles." The little nephew's surname is Yang Mingzheng. The word Huaiqing, thanks to his father's blessing, was named the ...... of the Liangqiu Pavilion by the imperial court. ”

"You already have a knighthood?" Yang Song was taken aback and quickly interrupted and asked.

"Uncle Yu. The little nephew is thin. It shouldn't have been sealed. Yang Zheng said very modestly: "It's just because the father of the little nephew, Yang Zhongming, the Marquis of Shucheng, followed the Taiwei Ming Wugong of this dynasty." Repeatedly made meritorious deeds, Ming Wugong was the merit of Zhang's father, and invited the court's Yinhui little nephew to be the Marquis of Liangqiu Pavilion. ”

"Shucheng Marquis Yang Zhongming?" Yang Song was shocked again. Hurriedly asked: "Virtuous nephew, your father, could it be the famous Xuzhou former Changshi, Shang Shu, Shang Shu, and Yang Zhongming, an important minister under the command of Ming Wugong, the Taiwei Tao of the Dynasty?" ”

"Exactly." Yang Zheng nodded and said respectfully: "My father said to him, although the Huainan Yang family is now developed, but the wealth can not forget the roots, the Huainan Yang family is originally derived from the Yang family in Hanzhong, Emperor Wu had the ancestors of the Yang family moved to Huainan, took root, and multiplied in the Huainan Yang family, so the father specially ordered the little nephew to come thousands of miles away to recognize the ancestors and return to the ancestors, and also visited the two uncles by the way, and shared the friendship with the two uncles. ”

As he spoke, Yang Zheng respectfully took out a family tree and a gift list, and said, "Two uncles, this is a genealogical copy of the little nephew, please look at the two uncles." There is also a meager gift list that my father ordered my little nephew to present to the two uncles, and I also asked the two uncles to look at it. ”

Of course, the Yang Song brothers would not be in a hurry to see the family tree, and when they took a closer look at the gift list brought by Yang Zheng, the Yang Song brothers were immediately ecstatic, it turned out that our young master Yang brought to the two uncles was ten night pearls and cat's eyes, two hundred pearls, ten pairs of jade walls, and one hundred gold bricks weighing one pound, a pair of four-foot-high corals and a set of fire raccoons that could not be burned by fire - the value was several times more than the gifts of Uncle Liu Huang and Boss Cao combined!

"Oops! Huai Qingxian nephew, please get up, hurry up! Yang Song hurriedly came to support Yang Zheng again, the fat smile on his face trembled even more, but he still said modestly: "The ceremony is too heavy, the ceremony is too heavy, the virtuous nephew has come thousands of miles to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, and he even brought us such a valuable gift, it is simply too polite, too polite." ”

"Uncle is polite, a little polite, it's really hard to be respectful." Yang Zheng said more politely: "The little nephew doesn't dare to deceive the two uncles, and some of these gifts are given to the two uncles by the little nephew's lord Tao Taiwei, but he is worried that Zhenyi Zhonglang will (Zhang Lu) be suspicious of the two uncles, so he will transfer them to the hands of the father." Originally, the lord also wanted to show the official title for the two uncles, but because of this matter, he didn't dare to make a mistake, and I hope that the two uncles will understand the hardships of the lord. ”

"Tao Gong also knows Yang Song and Yang Bai in Hanzhong?" Yang Bai, who is more enterprising, asked in surprise.

"Second uncle, the virtues of the two uncles are spread all over the world, how can my lord not know?" Yang Zheng smiled and said: "My lord, not only has he heard of the great names of the two uncles for a long time, but he also often sighs that he does not have such a talented pillar of civil and military affairs as the two uncles, and he deeply regrets this. My father often said to my little nephew that the reason why he was able to get such heavy treatment from the lord was because the two uncles were in Hanzhong and failed to show their strengths in the court. ”

Listening to the beautiful words of Young Master Yang, Yang Song and Yang Bai's brothers' hearts were as sweet as drinking honey, and under the great joy, Yang Song summoned his subordinates to prepare a banquet to entertain relatives, and treated Yang Zheng as a guest of honor, and looked at the family tree brought by Yang Zheng, and found that Yang Changshi's father and son were indeed from the Yang family in Hanzhong, Yang Song and Yang Bai were immediately overjoyed, and immediately recognized Yang Zheng, a nephew of the same clan, and also worshiped Yang Changshi, a heavy minister in Xuzhou, as a brother - a rich and powerful relative like Yang Changshi's father and son, The Yang Song brothers can recognize as many as they want.

Of course, as Yang Changshi's eldest son, Yang Zheng naturally would not recognize Yang Song and Yang Bai in vain, the two uncles of the same sect, after drinking to the point of half-drunkenness, Yang Zheng first looked up at the lobby of Lord Yang Song carefully, and then sighed: "I really can't imagine that my uncle will be so honest and honest, and the mansion where he lives will be so old and simple, if the little nephew didn't see it with his own eyes, he really couldn't believe that this was the mansion of the two uncles." ”

Looking at his palatial lobby, Yang Bai was inevitably a little puzzled. The heart said that my house is also old and shabby, so there is absolutely no good house in Hanzhong City. However, Yang Song nodded again and again, and said: "What the virtuous nephew said is reasonable, although this mansion is the second in Nanzheng City, it can only be regarded as old and simple compared to the official mansions in Xuchang City. Oh yes, nephew, how's your family going? ”

"My father is an honest official and never takes a penny in vain, so the situation in the little nephew's family is also very ordinary." Yang Zheng put on a high hat for his father without blushing. He added: "The little nephew's house covers an area of less than forty acres. On the twelfth floor of the sixth hall, how many little nephews in the pavilion have not paid attention, but I only remember that there is a rockery in the little nephew's house that is built of Taihu Lake stone, which is five zhang high. Ten feet in radius. ”

Yang Song closed his mouth. His expression was full of envy, jealousy, and hatred. Yang Zheng observed his words, and said busily: "I almost forgot, when the little nephew set off to Hanzhong." The lord also explained, please ask the two uncles to sit in Xuchang in their spare time, and then the lord guild will reward the two uncles with a better house, so that the two uncles will have a place to stay when they go to Xuchang. ”

"Tao Gong really said that?" Yang Song was overjoyed, seeing Yang Zheng nodding solemnly with a smile, Yang Song was even more happy, and said busily: "Virtuous nephew, Tao Gong is so generous, in the opinion of virtuous nephew, how should I repay?" ”

"Even if the uncle doesn't ask, the little nephew is about to say." Yang Zheng replied with a smile: "Don't dare to deceive the two uncles, the little nephew has a business to do in addition to recognizing his relatives, and the little nephew has the courage to plead with the two uncles for the lord." ”

"If you have something to say, please do your best for your uncle." Yang Song said busily.

"In fact, it is also a small matter, and it is even more of a good thing for the two uncles and the soldiers and civilians in Hanzhong." Yang Zheng smiled and said: "My father-in-law wants to ask the two uncles to come forward and persuade the father-in-law of the two uncles to ask for an alliance with Xiliang Ma Teng, and Zhang Ma will form an alliance to defeat Cao Thief and eradicate Cao Apu, an anti-country traitor!" ”

"What?!" Yang Song and Yang Bai were both shocked, "Persuade the lord to form an alliance with Ma Teng and join forces to defeat the Cao thief?" ”

"Exactly." Yang Zheng nodded, smiled and said: "Cao thief covets the wealth of Hanzhong, once sent troops to invade Hanzhong, although it was repulsed, but sooner or later it will come back, the Hanzhong army is isolated, and now my lord has no time to come west to save Hanzhong and eradicate the national thief Cao Cao, so my lord hopes that the Hanzhong army can form an alliance with General Ma Teng to break Cao, and eradicate Cao Apu, a traitor, for the imperial court!" ”

"It's ......." Yang Song rarely hesitated, and said: "Don't hide it from the virtuous nephew, in fact, as early as last year, when Cao thief entered Kou Hanzhong, my lord considered asking Ma Teng for help, but Yan Pu pointed out that the distant water could not save the near fire, and Ma Teng was restrained by Han Sui and was unable to rescue, so the lord gave up, and now I go to ask the lord to form an alliance with Ma Teng to destroy Cao, I am afraid that the lord will not agree." ”

"Uncle rest assured, the situation is different now." Yang Zheng smiled and said: "My lord has already been on the imperial court, showing Ma Teng as the general of Yongzhou Assassin Shi Zhengnan, and Han Sui as the general of Xiliang Taishou Zhengxi, allowing him to open a mansion and build a government, and ask the Son of Heaven to issue an edict to reconcile the contradictions between the two, so that the two of them join forces to cut down Cao, Yongzhou counties are currently in the hands of Cao thieves, Zhang Gong sent an envoy to ask for an alliance to destroy Cao, Ma Teng must not ask for it. ”

"And Han Sui, my lord has also repaired the book with him, promising that as long as he sends troops to help Ma Teng and Zhang Lugong destroy Cao, my lord will ask the imperial court to set up Yongliang Erzhou, and show him as the assassin of Liangzhou, so if Zhang Gong is willing, he can also ask Han Sui for an alliance and establish three alliances to break Cao thief."

"In that case, I have a way of persuading the lord." Yang Song was overjoyed and said: "Don't worry, nephew, I will go to see the lord tomorrow, and ask the lord to send an envoy to Ma Teng and Han Sui to ask for an alliance and join forces to break the Cao thief." ”

"Thank you, uncle." Yang Zheng was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Uncle, if Mr. Yan Pu objects again, uncle might as well tell Mr. Yan Pu clearly, and say that he is willing to join forces with him to recommend Liu Bei as the general of the Northern Expedition, and ask Zhang Gong to send Liu Bei to the north to crusade against Cao Thief, so that the little nephew expects that Mr. Yan Pu will not object no matter what." ”

"Huh?" Yang Song was startled at first, and then Yang Song, whose head was filled with wine-colored wealth like Yang Changshi, also suddenly came to his senses, and said with a smile: "It seems that Ming Wugong should not have spent much effort investigating the affairs of our Hanzhong." ”

"Brother, this is a great opportunity to kill three birds with one stone!" Yang Bai also came to his senses, and hurriedly leaned into Yang Song's ear and whispered: "Brother, persuade the lord to conclude the Zhang-Ma Alliance, increase the troops for Uncle Liu Liu, and send Uncle Liu Huang on the Northern Expedition to death, so that we can all do it if we agree to Uncle Liu, Meng Degong and Tao Taiwei?" ”

Yang Song smiled even more happily, and said to Yang Zheng again: "Virtuous nephew." Ming Wu Gong named Ma Teng as the history of Yongzhou Thorn, and Xu Han Sui as the history of Liangzhou Thorn, should I also say a little to my father-in-law? Only in this way can my lord go all out to defeat the Cao thief. ”

"Uncle, don't worry, I'm ready." Yang Zheng said with a smile: "I heard that a jade seal of the King of Hanning was unearthed in the land of Hanzhong, and my uncle and others asked Zhang Gong to establish himself as the King of Hanning. If Zhang Gong can join forces with Ma Teng and Han Sui to destroy Cao Thief this time, Zhang Gong's King Hanning, my lord will come forward to protect it. Please ask the imperial court to officially canonize it. What is the weight of my lord's speech in the court, my uncle must know very well, right? ”

As he spoke, Yang Zheng also presented a letter and said with a smile: "Uncle." This is a letter from my father-in-law to my father-in-law. I also asked my uncle to present it on my behalf. ”

Zhang Song laughed loudly. Said: "Don't worry, you can stay at your uncle's house for a while, and wait for your uncle's good news!" ”

………………

And so. At the instigation of the fledgling Young Master Yang, the Zhang Song brothers, who had won Zhang Lu's trust, immediately took action, and ran to Zhang Lu the next day, persuading Zhang Lu to form an alliance with Ma Teng and Han Sui to destroy Cao, and also introduced the hands and feet of Deputy Director Tao on Ma Teng and Han Sui, and presented a letter from Deputy Director Tao, explaining that Deputy Director Tao gave Zhang Lu a reward after the Hanzhong Army destroyed Cao, and Zhang Lu, who was worried about the threat of Cao Jun, was overjoyed, and immediately decided to send an envoy north to contact Ma Teng and Han Sui to try to form an alliance to destroy Cao.

During the same period as Yang Zheng predicted, Yan Pu really stood up to make trouble, although he did not object, but also expressed concern that Ma Teng and Han Sui would not be able to work, and just wanted the Hanzhong army to be cannon fodder They hid behind them to pick up the cheap, and as a result, when Yang Song said that he wanted to recommend Liu Bei as the general of the Northern Expedition, Yan Pu immediately stood on the side of the Yang Song brothers for the first time, and joined forces to persuade Zhang Lu to make every effort to promote this alliance to destroy Cao, and pointed out that even if the Hanzhong army did not promote this alliance, Cao Cao would inevitably invade Hanzhong again sooner or later, and wait for death passively. It is better to try to form this alliance first, and if it can succeed, Hanzhong will be as safe as Mount Tai.

Yang Song and Yan Pu both suggested this, and Zhang Lu naturally did not hesitate, and sent an envoy north to contact Ma Teng and Han Sui on the same day, asking for an alliance to destroy Cao. Yang Song, on the other hand, blocked the news from Uncle Liu, and secretly summoned Mao Jue, telling Mao Jue that he had to kill Uncle Liu Huang because of his separation, and he was going to send Uncle Liu Huang to take the initiative to send troops north to die, so that Cao Jun could solve Uncle Liu Huang by himself. Although Mao Jue was not very satisfied with this result, considering that it was better to let Uncle Liu Huang take the initiative to go to Sanguan to die, than to annihilate the army in the south, he reluctantly thanked Yang Song for his hard work and rushed back to Chang'an to report the good news to Boss Cao.

By the way, Mao Jue's departure from Nanzheng that day was actually to save himself, and Yang Zheng, who had already found out his whereabouts, was about to report to Zhang Lu, but he ran away first, making Master Yang's first contribution to the mountain fail. However, Young Master Yang didn't go too far about this, and took the opportunity of living in Yang Song's mansion to hurry up and wander around Yang Song's house, secretly looking for the location of Yang Song's brothers' vault, and preparing to act in the future.

More than ten days later, Mao Jue brought Yang Song's reply back to Chang'an, and Boss Cao was not very satisfied when he heard that Yang Song only promised to send Uncle Liu Huang to the north to send him to death, but considering that it was more secure to ensure that he had a greater hope of taking Uncle Liu's head, he did not continue to buy Yang Song to get rid of Uncle Liu Huang directly, but only arranged troops in the area of Sanguan and Xiazhi to prepare for Uncle Liu's Northern Expedition, that is, to wait for Uncle Liu to take the initiative to come north to send him to death.

For the current Cao Boss, who is currently seriously injured, the biggest bad news is, of course, that the three families of Zhang, Ma and Han joined forces to destroy Cao, and Yang Zheng introduced, Deputy Director Tao is indeed in the honor of the imperial court, canonized Ma Teng as the Yongzhou Assassin History, and Han Sui as the Xiliang, with the edict of the Son of Heaven ordered the two to send troops to attack Cao Boss, and secretly promised Han Sui that as long as the Cao Army is destroyed, Han Sui will be named the Liangzhou Assassin History, as a result, although Ma Teng and Han Sui understood Deputy Director Tao's sinister intentions to drive the tiger and devour the wolf, they did not dare to act rashly, but they were also very tempted, Therefore, when Zhang Lu's envoy arrived in Xiliang to contact, Ma Teng and Han Sui were completely moved.

"Cao thief is entrenched in Guanzhong, since he wants to seize Zhang Lu's Hanzhong granary, then sooner or later he will also come to seize our Xiliang horse land." Ma Teng and Han Sui both thought so, "Instead of passively waiting for death, it is better to strike first, and join forces with Zhang Lu to destroy the Cao thief first, which can not only obtain official land, but also reduce losses, which is far better than being broken by Cao thief!" ”

With this idea in mind, Ma Teng and Han Sui agreed to conclude an alliance with Zhang Lu to destroy Cao without much consideration, and united the eight warlords of Guanzhong to prepare to send troops to attack Cao. At the same time, after getting the news that Ma Teng and Han Sui agreed to form an alliance, Zhang Lu listened to Yang Song's persuasion and immediately sent Liu Huangshu to lead an army of 10,000 to the north to attack the ancient road of Sanguan, and responded to Ma Teng and Han Sui's eastward advance.

Of course, although Uncle Liu Huang was a little reluctant to go north, he did not intend to be perfunctory, because Pang Tong pointed out to Uncle Liu that the Northern Expedition of the Hanzhong Army was not hopeless, and the three alliances worked together to encircle and suppress the Cao Boss who had been greatly injured, as long as the strategy was properly implemented, the possibility of success was actually very great, and after destroying the Cao Army, Uncle Liu Huang not only had a great reputation, but also took the opportunity to annex the Guanzhong forces to strengthen himself, and then he could rest assured that he could boldly take Hanzhong and then try to Yizhou Tianfu country. Uncle Liu Huang felt reasonable, and because the soldiers, horses, grain and grass were supplied by Zhang Lu, so Uncle Liu Huang also fought a bad battle with Cao Ren in Sanguan, effectively restrained the main force of Cao's army, and created an opportunity for Ma Teng and Han Sui to advance eastward.

In this way, Cao Boss, who has not completely breathed his breath, is naturally bitter, the west is the direct threat of Ma Teng and Han Sui, and the south is a strong challenge from Uncle Liu Huang, and the limited number of troops and grain and grass must be supported by the southwest two lines at the same time, even if he is not afraid of this, he will win or lose, and he will not have the strength to go south to Hanzhong in a short time. At the same time, the paper couldn't contain the fire, and the role played by Deputy Director Tao in it was finally sent to Boss Cao through various channels, causing Boss Cao to flip the table on the spot and scold, "God kill your pottery thief!" You don't even want to give me a chance to breathe! ”

"Treacherous pottery thief, you have a plan to drive away the tiger and devour the wolf, and you have forcibly tied the hands and feet of me and Cao Mengde, the two heroes of the world, forcing us to kill each other and let you sit and reap the profits, you are ruthless!"

This is the wail that Uncle Liu Huang made when he learned the truth, but even if he knew that Deputy Director Tao was doing the ghost, Uncle Liu Huang had no choice, because if Uncle Liu Huang didn't listen to Zhang Lu's order to attack Boss Cao, Deputy Director Tao only needed to spend some more gold, silver and jewelry, and he would immediately let Yang Song and Yan Pu join forces to take his own life. Therefore, Uncle Liu Huang had no choice but to continue to storm the Cao army with the determination to break the cauldron and sink the boat, and joined forces with Ma Teng and Han Sui to storm the Cao army.
