Chapter 7: The Road to Leading the Army

Xun Qing recommended meritorious service and was promoted to the middle of the service. Hold the knots and prepare the carriage. Take Zhang Shuang to see me. Liu Hong said.

As soon as the Son of Heaven Chrysostom opened, it was a foregone conclusion.

He Jin's face was extremely ugly, and Zheng Tai completely collapsed in his position.

"No." Xun You suddenly agreed, bowed and retreated.

……………….

Cai Yuan.

Zhang Shuang was taking a walk, circling the manor a few times, exercising after cooking. In addition to moving his muscles and bones, Zhang Shuang was also a little restless.

Wealth and glory, success and fame.

Ten years of planning, can it be turned into results? Just look at the Yellow Turban Uprising this time, Zhang Shuang is a layman, and it is inevitable that this will be the case at such a moment of changing fate.

"Brother Xian, Brother Xian!" A cordial call came from behind him.

Zhang Shuang turned his head to look, and saw Cai Yan coming, with pink clothes on his body, red embroidered shoes under his feet, hairpins on his head, a little powder on his cheeks, and his eyes were like water, which was very gorgeous.

"What's the matter?" Zhang Shuang asked, thinking of big things, Zhang Shuang's expression was a little perfunctory, and he didn't care.

Cai Yan was so smart that he immediately noticed it. couldn't help wrinkling his little nose and muttered, "Brother Xian perfunctory me." ”

Zhang Shuang scratched his head, the ancients said well, but women and villains are difficult to raise. A smart woman like Cai Yan is not exempt from vulgarity. Thinking so in his heart, Zhang Shuang didn't dare to show it on his face.

Smiled and bowed deeply to Cai Yan and asked, "What do you have to teach Sister Xian?" ”

"I want to learn how to ride a horse!" Cai Yan smiled and said.

"Horseback riding?" Zhang Shuang suddenly recalled that yesterday he rode his horse and galloped to prepare for the expedition, and Cai Yan was very envious by the side, saying that he wanted to learn. At that time, it seemed that I said yes.

for it is a sin of his own making. Zhang Shuang was helpless, so he had to smile and say, "Okay." ”

"Hee-hee!" Cai Yan grinned, very cheerful.

Immediately, Zhang Shuang asked Dian Wei to move a docile mare. Then turn over and do a demonstration.

"This way, this way." After that, Zhang Shuang dismounted and asked Cai Yan to get on the horse.

"It's a little scary." Cai Yan was a little frightened, and clutched Zhang Shuang's sleeve tightly.

"There's nothing to be afraid of, horses are meant to be ridden. It's afraid of you. Zhang Shuang laughed and said.

"I don't need it to be afraid of me, I just need it to be friends with me." Cai Yan smiled, a little coquettish.

"Friends, just friends. Go up. Zhang Shuang was very helpless, where did the intellectual Cai Yan go???

"I can't sit down." Cai Yan just wanted to take a step and learn Zhang Shuang's movements to turn over and get on the horse, but found that he was wearing a skirt and blushed a little.

"I forgot to wear civilian clothes."

Zhang Shuang was half-hearted and didn't pay attention. When Cai Yan talked about it, he found out about this. said with a wry smile: "Sister Xian, are you here to play as a brother?" ”

"Don't dare, don't dare!" Cai Yan hurriedly denied it, then bent over towards Zhang Shuang, and said pitifully: "Don't blame Brother Xian, I really forgot." ”

"Da Da Da!"

At that moment, a rush of footsteps sounded. Dian Wei appeared in front of Zhang Shuang, his expression was full of excitement, as if he had encountered a great happy event.

"What is so joyful?" Zhang Shuang said strangely.

"What a good thing, sir, the angel has arrived. And it's Xun Yu, Mr. Xun Gongda. Dian Wei said excitedly.

"Hurry!" Zhang Shuang laughed, then turned to Cai Yan's little nose and chuckled: "Brother Wei is going to do big things, be good, and I'll teach you when I have time." Remember to come in casual clothes. ”

Cai Yan pursed her mouth, completely unwilling. But she has a soft temperament, and her heart and liver are all on Zhang Shuang, and she doesn't want to see Zhang Shuang unhappy.

As soon as his mind turned, he waved his small fist and said, "Brother Xian, go do great things." You have to be victorious. ”

"Hahaha, Ji Yan!" Zhang Shuang laughed and walked out with Dian Wei.

"Big deal? What's the big deal? Successful and famous, and the marquis worships the general? No, no, a virtuous brother literati, he should be handsome and in the picture. Hee-hee. Cai Yan came to the small pavilion and sat down, propped up his chin, and thought.

………………

In the hall, Xun Yu held the scepter of the Son of Heaven and sat on the main seat. Cai Yong was on the side.

"The Scepter of the Son of Heaven, as if the Son of Heaven is coming. It's very grand, I didn't expect the original little bean to have this moment. Cai Yong's expression was slightly dazed, remembering the past.

Xun You and Zhang Shuang have only known each other for a few days, and I don't know what Zhang Shuang looked like when he was a child. Seeing Cai Yong's emotion, he also said: "Extraordinary people should be extraordinary." I didn't know Bo Liang since I was a child, which is a pity. ”

"If you've known each other since childhood, you're definitely a confidant now." Cai Yong said with a smile.

Xun You smiled slightly.

"Da Da Da!"

At this time, Zhang Shuang walked in from outside.

"Bo Liang, the Son of Heaven ordered me to drive you into the palace." Xun You restrained his smile and said in a deep voice.

"Dare to disobey?!" Zhang Shuang responded.

"Please!" Xun You got up and led. Zhang Shuang nodded, and then the two said goodbye to Cai Yong, walked out of the hall, and walked out of the manor.

Outside the manor, there were twenty tigers, wearing armor and holding spears, surrounded by a carriage and a war horse, with a calm bearing. Zhang Shuang was invited into the carriage, Xun You turned over on the horse, and drove the horse with a festival.

"Let's go!"

Under Xun You's order, the team slowly marched towards Luoyang.

The servant holds the festival, the car is a celebrity, and the tiger is accompanied.

At the foot of the Son of Heaven, in the capital of Luoyang, this kind of thing is also very rare. When the team arrived in Luoyang, the streets were full of spectators.

"The old man is fifty years old this year, and he has only seen this situation fifteen times."

"In other words, the man of the carriage only comes out once in three or five years?"

"This person is either a famous person in the sea, or a strange person."

The people pointed and pointed, and sighed.

"It's a matter of success or failure." In the carriage, Zhang Shuang sat on his knees, took a few deep breaths, closed his eyes, and adjusted his mood.

It was in this atmosphere that the procession arrived at the Han Palace.

The servants hold the festival, and no one dares to stop the palace gate guards. The carriage entered the Han Palace smoothly, all the way unimpeded, and stopped not far from the Deyang Palace.

Zhang Shuang got out of the carriage and stepped up the steps with Xun Yu and walked towards the Deyang Palace.

"Later, the Son of Heaven will order me to praise and quote, and Bo Liang will call him "only", not "Nuo". On the way, Xun You pointed out some places that Zhang Shuang needed to pay attention to.

"Hmm." Zhang Shuang nodded and kept it in mind.

Soon after, the two arrived at the Deyang Palace. Xun You was the first to enter the hall, and soon after, Xun You praised it.

"Ordered Chen to stay and see Zhang Shuang."

"Yui." Zhang Shuang responded and walked into the Deyang Palace.

With a "only" Zhang Shuang appeared in the field of vision of the ministers in the Deyang Palace, he had a scarf on his head, a robe, and was dressed ordinary. But his appearance is extremely photogenic, his breath is refreshing and bright, and his bearing is looming.

"What a celebrity!"

Including Liu Hong, everyone secretly applauded.

"Chen Liuren Zhang Shuang, meet the Son of Heaven."

Zhang Shuang bowed deeply.

"Someone, extra seats!" Liu Hong said.

"No." A eunuch made a promise, holding a futon and placing it in front of Liu Hong. Zhang Shuang saluted again and knelt down.

Between the movements, all eyes are on.

Zhang Shuang's expression was as usual, neither humble nor arrogant.

"I ordered Xun to summon Qing to come for the sake of the Yellow Turban." Liu Hong said, paused, and said: "I heard that Qing had already anticipated the situation before March. ”

As he spoke, Liu Hong looked at Zhang Shuang nervously, as if a life-saving straw. The same is true of the ministers.

Zhang Shuang smiled and said, "That's right! ”

"Is there a good solution?" Liu Hong's eyes lit up and asked urgently.

"I'm absolutely right to ask about this matter." Zhang Shuang smiled in his heart, but said with a very serious face: "There are two countermeasures. ”

"Come on." Manchu Dynasty civil and military wine bag rice bag, now Zhang Shuang came, but said that there were two countermeasures, Liu Hong's expectations in his heart increased greatly, and he was impatient, and said in a loud voice.

"I heard that the Son of Heaven ordered the general to dispatch heavy troops to guard the checkpoints of the division?" Zhang Shuang took a deep breath and asked.

"That's right." Liu Hong nodded, and then said: "I don't know how to use soldiers, but I also know that if I hold the division and lose the world, my head will definitely not be protected." ”

"The minister's first countermeasure is to ask Your Majesty to choose a good general, command half of the elite soldiers, and go everywhere to rebel." Zhang Shuang said.

"Dispatch half of the troops?? Can the division be kept? Liu Hong hesitated.

"Elite soldiers, sitting at the level. It will definitely be kept. Zhang Shuang said categorically.

He Jin saw that Liu Hong and Zhang Shuang were talking hotly, and he couldn't help but be very jealous in his heart. At this moment, he interjected: "Even if half of the elite soldiers are sent to fight against the Yellow Turban Thieves, the Yellow Turban Thieves are divided into thirty-six directions and spread all over the world. How can you cope with it? ”

"So, the minister has a second strategy."

Zhang Shuang replied calmly, and then said to Liu Hong: "The Son of Heaven can order the states to assassinate the history, recruit warriors, and defend the city." Consume the power of the Yellow Turbans, and when the time comes, the Yellow Turbans everywhere will definitely be wiped out. ”

The courtiers' eyes suddenly lit up, it made sense.

The strength of the imperial court is insufficient, so you can order the state assassin to recruit state soldiers and horses. Why didn't you think of that?

Many people beat their chests and feet, it turned out to be just a simple question. If I could imagine it, I would be standing here right now.

Relying on this little bit of tongue, I am afraid that this person has entered the eyes of the Son of Heaven, and his future is immeasurable.

The ministers looked at Zhang Shuang with envy and jealousy.

For the eyes around him, Zhang Shuang still ignored it. There is only Liu Hong in his eyes, although he is quite helpless, but the person who controls his fate is the great man in front of him.

"Good!"

Liu Hong doesn't understand military affairs, but he can also detect that Zhang Shuang's strategy is to increase his strength and weaken the power of the Yellow Turban. Slap your hands and applaud.

"Qing has a credit to the court, and I ordered Qing to serve in the middle. The status is the same as Xun Qing. and gave a mansion, three hundred gold, and one hundred silks. Twenty tigers. ”

To solve the urgent need, Liu Hong appeared very generous.

But these are not what Zhang Shuang needs. He took a deep breath, straightened up, and said, "The minister has a request. ”

"Say."

Liu Hong was very arrogant and waved his hand.

But this action, for the ministers, feels a bit too much.

"Return the world's celebrities??? But greedy. ”

"Even if he is a wise man, his virtue is too shallow."

The ministers secretly said in their hearts.

"Greedy, vulgar."

Zheng Tai's heart was even more vicious, but sour. Why not me?

"Please lead the troops." Zhang Shuang raised his head and said loudly.

Suddenly, everyone was stunned.
