Chapter 57: Zilong's Past

Zhending is about a hundred miles away from Gaoyi, the terrain is flat, a horse and a flat river, if you take a carriage, you can arrive in less than three days.

After Li Yan successfully persuaded Zhao Quan and his wife to go to Gaoyi for treatment, he found a few carriages from the county seat, and moved all the valuable items of the Zhao family without saying anything, and then arranged for two military doctors borrowed from Liu Yu's army to ride in the same car with Zhao Quan, and diagnosed and treated Zhao Quan at any time.

It is really Liu Yu's home field now, Li Yan holds the "letter of introduction" of the eldest prince, gets a few carriages from the army, seconds the No. 100 guards, and gets two doctors, but it is still not a problem.

Although Liu He went to Xindu, the name of the eldest prince has already broken out, and everyone has heard of the eldest prince's actions during this period of time in Jizhou, and they are still very much looking forward to this eldest prince who grew up in Luoyang and served two young emperors later.

Can survive in the hands of Dong Fatzi, and finally successfully escape from Chang'an, and now return to Youzhou safely, is it a simple person?

Of course, strictly speaking, Gongzi has not yet returned to Youzhou, but in the eyes of Liu Yu's generals, although Gongzi is in Jizhou now, who dares to do anything to him? As long as Liu Yu gives an order, the 50,000 army can sweep Jizhou in a few days, who can resist!

Even after Liu Yu heard that Li Yan was coming, he took the time to meet him specifically. The results of the meeting were still encouraging, Liu Yu recognized Li Yan's talent and learning ability, and felt that his son was quite discerning, and he was able to find a plastic talent like Li Yan in the small Danshui County.

Zhao Quan looked at the hundreds of guards outside the carriage through the curtain, as if he was in a dream, he really couldn't imagine that a scholar who passed by his door one day had such a powerful background. Now what he was thinking about was what was the origin of this scholar who called himself Li Zhengfang, and why did he rush to help him?

Although Zhao Quan is only a farmer in Zhaojiazhuang, it does not mean that he has no brains and knowledge. If you are an honest person, how can you make such a decision to let your younger brother join the army?

Zhao Quan's illness was caused by the recurrence of old injuries in the body, before he fell ill, he was also a good man, and the kung fu on his fists and feet was also well-known within a radius of more than ten miles.

Li Kui, the leader of the land of one mile, is almost equivalent to the head of a natural village in later generations.

The administrative level of the Han Dynasty from top to bottom was the central, state, county (state), county, township, pavilion, and li, although this "likui" was not a "civil servant" establishment, but it was also a respected figure in a village of hundreds of people.

Zhao Quan didn't worry about what Li Yan would have for him at all, just that little thing at home was worth the value of these carriages that people casually found; His wife is just an ordinary woman, and she is old, Li Zhengfang is only in her early twenties, and he is a talent, if he thinks about his wife, he will not believe it first; Now that he is injured and sick, he is just a person waiting for death, and he seems to have no use value.

After thinking about all of this, Zhao Quan finally turned his thoughts to his younger brother who left home at the beginning of the year.

Thinking of his younger brother, Zhao Quan's originally empty eyes suddenly had a touch of brilliance, and a comforting smile gently appeared on his face.

Zhao Yun is not Zhao Quan's younger brother, he is the only son of the old patriarch of Zhaojiazhuang, and he is also Zhao Quan's younger brother. The so-called subordinate brother is the ancient name of the cousin. Zhao Quan called the old patriarch his uncle, his parents died when he was a child, and it was Zhao Yun's father who raised him.

That year, the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke into the village with a group of strongmen who escaped from Xiaquyang, killed the old patriarch without saying anything, looted all the food and property in his house, and then walked away. Zhao Quan's old injuries were also caused by that time, when he desperately protected his aunt from the bullying of thieves.

Zhao Yun was only sixteen years old that year, and he was learning martial arts from an old man in the Taihang Mountains.

After the death of the old patriarch, Zhao Quan silently assumed the responsibility of supporting his aunt like a son, but unfortunately in less than three years, his aunt passed away due to depression. When Zhao Yun was twenty years old, when Yicheng came out of the mountain, he found out about this unfortunate change in his family.

The young Zhao Yun wiped away his tears in front of his parents' graves, and then asked Zhao Quan in detail about the appearance and whereabouts of the strongmen who broke into the village, and then left the village.

Two months later, Zhao Yun, who was covered with stubble, returned to Zhaojiazhuang again.

Three months later, news came from Jingcheng Pass that a group of strongmen entrenched in the nearby mountains had been slaughtered. With hundreds of people, the stockade is the largest bandit force in the vicinity.

Although Zhao Yun never mentioned this matter in person, Zhao Quan knew that he must have done it.

In the next three years, Zhao Yun kept filial piety for his parents in Zhuangzhong, occasionally taught some martial arts used by the children in Zhuangzhong to protect themselves, and occasionally quietly went out for ten days and half a month.

Soon after each time he returned, new news came that the cottage had been slaughtered again, and that the heads of the fierce and brutal bandits had been cut off and hung outside the county gate.

Anyway, since Zhao Yun went down the mountain, no strongman dared to enter within a radius of ten miles from Zhaojiazhuang.

Because of all the past, although Zhao Quan and Zhao Yun are not brothers, they have a deep relationship, and sometimes they are better than brothers.

When Zhao Yun was still at home, he always obeyed Zhao Quan's words, and he was also respectful to his sister-in-law. After Zhao Yun's three years of filial piety were completed, Zhao Quan found the township elder and asked the township elder to go to the county to recommend Zhao Yun to join the army and serve the country on behalf of the county.

The villagers also knew that Zhao Yun had peerless martial arts, and he also knew that in the past few years, Zhao Yun had killed bandits within a radius of dozens of miles with only one person, so he went to the county order and strongly recommended Zhao Yun to the county order.

After the county commander heard about Zhao Yun's skills, he asked Zhao Quan and Zhao Yun to call, and then arranged for strong men in the county to test Zhao Yun's kung fu, and the result was that eight big men with sticks could not surround Zhao Yun with bare hands.

Seeing that Zhao Yun was so powerful, the county commander was overjoyed, and recommended Zhao Yun to the Minister of Changshan. In this way, after some tossing and turning, Zhao Yun took hundreds of descendants of the county to Gongsun Zhan to join the army.

Zhao Quan in the carriage knew that his younger brother was not simple, and he firmly believed that Zhao Yun would be able to do something big in the future, but he couldn't imagine how big Zhao Yun would be.

"Dare to ask Zhengfang, do you know my brother Zhao Yun?"

Zhao Quan, who was suspicious, invited Li Yan to the car and asked bluntly.

Li Yan was talking to Zhao Quan's ten-year-old son Zhao Xizi all the way, and in the process of seeming to chat with outsiders, he had basically figured out the situation of the family, including some of the previous stories of Zhao Quan and Zhao Yun.

At this time, seeing Zhao Quan asking like this, Li Yan did not hide it, and replied bluntly: "I can't hide it, just a few days ago, Brother Ling accompanied Gongsun Zhan to engage in Guan Jing in front of the account to Gaoyi. ”

"I don't know what your son-in-law is called?" Zhao Quan asked carefully.

"My son-in-law's name is Liu He, he is the servant of the Son of Heaven, and he is also the eldest son of Taifu Liu Bo'an!"

"Ahh But that Liu Gongzi who fought the heroes in Gaoyi City and helped Hanzhou Mu resist Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao's annexation of Jizhou? Zhao Quan had a surprised expression on his face.

"Exactly!"

"Liu Gongzi has great grace to the people of Changshan and Zhongshan! If he hadn't interfered with it, I was afraid that the current truth would have been a constant fight, and blood would have flowed like a river. Zhao Quan said with some emotion.

Li Yan thought in his heart at this time: Gongzi asked people to spread what happened in Gaoyi City, and now it seems that it has worked, and even the farmers in the countryside outside the county know his name, this 'propaganda work' is really very important!

"Liu Gongzi treats me so kindly, is he trying to recruit my brother?" Zhao Quan understood people, and without waiting for Li Yan's intentional guidance, he thought of this layer.

"Childe does have this intention. Brother Ling is from Jizhou, but now Gongsun Zan has led troops to fight for Jizhou, if it weren't for Gongzi to mediate and interfere from it, I am afraid that Brother Ling's hands have been stained with the blood of Jizhou soldiers. Gongzi felt that a genius like Brother Ling, following a person like Gongsun Chan was really suspected of being secretly cast by Mingzhu, so he asked me to come to see you and ask you to help persuade Brother Ling to leave that Gongsun Zhan. Li Yan carefully organized his sentences, trying to make his words sound more righteous and awe-inspiring.

Zhao Quan agreed with Li Yan's words, nodded and said: "Zhengfang is right, although I am a lowly person in the countryside, I also know that the Daoist man joined the army to defend the border, not to slaughter Tongzhou Paoze. Since Gongsun Chan is not the master, and Liu Gongzi values my brother so much, I will write a letter to him, asking him to give up the Gongsun Chan and turn to Gongzi's account. ”

"I'm afraid it's not right. If, after seeing the letter, Brother Ling felt that leaving Gongsun Chan was betraying his loyalty and refusing to come back, wouldn't it be self-defeating? Or did I ask someone to send a message to Brother Ling, saying that you are seriously ill and difficult to treat, and let him return to his hometown to visit him quickly, what do you think? ”

"Okay, call him back first, and then I will persuade him to leave Gongsun Zhan."

After Zhao Quan said these words, he felt tired and had to lie down to rest. Li Yan comforted him, got out of the carriage, and then hurriedly called the doctor to help. Zhao Quan is now a "fragrant glutton", and there must be no accidents.

In the carriage, Zhao Quan, who had his eyes closed, silently thought in his heart: Brother Yun, don't blame your brother for being troublesome this time, after all, Liu Gongzi treats people with sincerity, and he values you so much, following a person like him who was born in a royal family, our Zhao family will become a famous family sooner or later, and you can also show your ambitions.

Li Yan, who was outside the carriage, was riding on the horse and secretly pondered: Childe, I have completely settled for you on the Zhao family's side, and in the future, Zhao Yun will not only not stab you with a spear, but will also be grateful to you, but I don't know if you can settle those ambitious people on the Xindu side?
