Chapter 71: The Eve of the Great War (5)

Everyone chatted for a while, and seeing Zhong Youpeng's tired face, he thought that he was tired all the way, and his body was a little unbearable. So, Wang Kunjun stopped talking and ordered his subordinates to wait for the Zhong family father and son to bathe and change clothes, go to the guest room to rest for a while, and then set up a banquet in the evening to catch the wind and wash the dust for the Zhong family father and son. Although Zhong Youpeng had the heart to talk to Wang Kunjun and others for a while, how could he run all the way, he really didn't have the energy to continue at this time, so he had to confess to Wang Kunjun and others, and then went to rest with his subordinates.

Seeing off the Zhong family father and son, Wang Kunjun and others lamented that the Zhong family father and son had not been easy this year, and took turns to read the work report written by Zhong Youpeng to persuade the local shili. Although this is the first time I have written such a thing, the whole report is a little rough by the standards of a previous life, but the content is not bad at all. Through this report, the traversers present here can learn in great detail what the Zhong family father and son have done in the past year, who they have come into contact with, what persuasion methods they have adopted, what results they have achieved, and what lessons they have summed up. With this report, the crossing team will be able to formulate the relevant jihua of the battle of the clouds that will break out soon after, so as to take the initiative of the war into their own hands.

Considering that the final implementation of the Battle of Youyun was the soldiers of the "Flying Dragon Army" and the "Security Army", after reading Zhong Youpeng's report, Wang Kunjun immediately ordered the telegraph room to send a telegram to "Jingyuan" and "Feilong Village", asking the brothers of the Security Department and the Military Department to send people to "Qingyuan" to discuss Zhong Youpeng's report with everyone. Qian Yuanshan, Zeng Zhilin, Yang Xin and others naturally did not dare to slack off when they received the telegram, and after arranging the matter at hand, they rushed to "Qingyuan" in the afternoon of the same day.

The brothers studied and discussed from the end of the afternoon to the beginning of the afternoon, and only then came to an end temporarily at Wang Kunjun's suggestion -- if it wasn't for the fact that it was getting late, everyone would have to set up a banquet for the Zhong family father and son, but I was afraid that the discussion would not be held until late at night. Subsequently, Wang Kunjun instructed the kitchen to prepare a banquet, and asked his subordinates to go to the guest room to invite the Zhong family father and son to be present.

There was not much time, the banquet was set, and the Zhong family's father and son were also invited. The father and son, who had rested for an afternoon, were much more energetic at this time than when they first entered the house, and while they greeted the newcomers Qian Yuanshan, Zeng Zhilin and Yang Xin, you pushed me to invite Wang Kunjun to sit on the main seat, Zhong Youpeng sat next to him, and Zhong Shiwen sat a little farther away, next to Zeng Zhilin and Qian Yuanshan.

When the wine had passed three rounds, the dishes had passed five flavors, and the atmosphere at the banquet became more and more enthusiastic, Zhong Youpeng, who was sitting next to Wang Kunjun, peeked at Zeng Zhilin, who was pushing the cup and changing lamps with his son, and leaned into Wang Kunjun's ear and whispered: "Lord Wang, my subordinates have something I want to ask my lord. -- From the time he accepted the ministry of "liaison envoy," Zhong Youpeng's self-proclaimed position when talking to Wang Kunjun, Zhang Weixin, and others changed from the original "old man" and "Zhong" to "subordinate," in order to show that he was willing to be driven by the "Qingyuan" brothers and serve the "Qingyuan" brothers. Although Wang, Zhang and others not only didn't care about how Zhong Youpeng claimed to be a subordinate, but also felt a little awkward in the face of Zhong Youpeng, who claimed to be a "subordinate", but in view of Zhong Youpeng's insistence, Wang, Zhang and others, who were unwilling to make trouble with Zhong Youpeng because of this trivial matter, no longer bothered to speak, but accepted Zhong Youpeng's change naturally, and changed their title to Zhong Youpeng from Zhong Yuanwai to Zhong Liaishou or Liaison Messenger, which is the best response to Zhong Youpeng's change in title.

Although he didn't know what Zhong Youpeng wanted to ask himself, from the other party's eyes and movements, Wang Kunjun judged that what Zhong Youpeng wanted to ask was definitely not a big deal, and it was mostly related to Zeng Zhilin, who was constantly peeking at the other party. Therefore, Wang Kunjun asked in a very relaxed and low voice: "I don't know what Zhong Lianhua wants to inquire about a certain family?" ”

As Wang Kunjun expected, before his words fell, Zhong Youpeng used his hand under the table to allude to Zeng Zhilin diagonally opposite him, and continued to ask in a low voice: "My subordinates want to ask the adults whether General Zeng has a family." If you haven't started a family yet, I wonder if you already have a girl you like? ”

Although Zhong Youpeng's expression was very solemn when he said these words, and there was no hint of joking or joking on his face, Wang Kunjun couldn't help but want to laugh after listening to the other party's question. Because he really couldn't understand that this Zhong Yuanwai, who has always been an intellectual and serious, and is the most reluctant to talk to others about those homely and short gossip, will suddenly ask this question today, and he will ask himself as a brother, instead of directly asking Zeng Zhilin, who is sitting in a seat very close to him. ,

However, if you don't understand it, you can't understand it, Zhong Youpeng's expression and the two abnormal gossip questions he asked aroused Wang Kunjun's gossip interest. So, he tilted his head slightly and whispered to Zhong Youpeng, "It turns out that Zhong Liai's envoy wants to ask this question. As far as a certain know, the twenty-sixth brother is still unmarried, but he just bought a house in Liangxiang City and raised an outer room in it. Since the twenty-sixth brother is an important commander of the 'Flying Dragon Army', in order to facilitate the control of more and more "Flying Dragon Army", he usually eats and lives in the barracks, so the number of times he comes to Liangxiang is very limited. I don't know why Zhong Liaison asked these questions? Could it be that he wanted to match the twenty-sixth brother and introduce him to a young and beautiful girl. ”

After listening to Wang Kunjun's introduction, Zhong Youpeng's heart has a lot of spectrum - in a sense, the outer room can't even compare with the concubines in the family. Don't say that he only bought one room, even if Zeng Zhilin bought four or five rooms in one go, Zhong Youpeng would not take it seriously. He continued to say in Wang Kunjun's ear: "The reason why my subordinates want to ask these things is because some time ago, when my subordinates traveled around the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, they went to see an old man. He proposed to his subordinates that he hoped that his subordinates could match his daughter and propose to General Zeng. ”

"Propose?" Wang Kunjun asked with some surprise, "I don't know which family asked the envoy to propose marriage to the twenty-sixth brother?" Which girl in their family are you talking about? ”

"The subordinate to protect the media is Yan Zhili Yan, who lives in Qiulinzhuang, Baihua Mountain, and the girl he said is Yan Ruhua, the youngest daughter of Yan." Zhong Youpeng replied,
