Chapter 620: The Liu Family
However, Zhou Zheng did not let people continue to investigate the affairs of Qian's mother and daughter, and it also had something to do with Jiao Meng.
Jiao Meng's confessions were all about the True Immortal Sect, and he didn't mention much about the Qian family's mother and daughter, and when it came to the boudoir woman, the people who interrogated him did not continue to investigate deeply, and even Zhou Zheng forgot about these two people.
Until one day, the subordinates came down to report that they found traces of Long Huwei in Baoding Mansion.
Zhou Zheng was taken aback, Long Huwei had always been active in the south, how could he suddenly appear in Baoding Mansion, which was more than 300 miles away from the capital.
"There is no news in the capital, which means that this matter has nothing to do with the court, it is not a decision of the emperor or the cabinet, and it is Xiao Changdun's own idea nine times out of ten." Said the staff.
Zhou Zheng was silent, he was here staring at the capital. The appearance of Dragon Tiger Wei in Baoding is not much different from that in the capital.
"It would be nice if General Jiang was here, in the entire northwest, only the Jiang family can talk to Long Huwei." The staff said again.
This is a fact, Jiang Shuangliu's father Jiang Diqing and Zou Zhen are both five tiger generals under the command of Xiao Yuan, the old Duke of Dingguo, the two are friends of life and death, Zou Zhen's son is the current commander of the Dragon and Tiger Guard Zou Xuehuai, if Jiang Diqing did not unload his armor and return to the field early, the position of the commander of the Dragon and Tiger Guard may be the Jiang family.
In fact, the reason why the old man Jiang took off his armor and returned to the field and moved his family to the northwest was because of the matter of the little emperor of the Later Jin Dynasty, even if he did not take off his armor and return to the field, the position of the commander of the Dragon Tiger Guard would not belong to the Jiang family, this is a secret, even Jiang Shuangliu did not know, and of course Zhou Zheng and his staff did not know.
The staff's words reminded Zhou Zheng, and he immediately asked someone to write a letter to Jiang Shuangliu, which was sent to Henan in an urgent manner for 600 miles, and at this moment, Jiang Shuangliu was in Henan.
It's just a coincidence that as soon as his letter was delivered, he received a report from the Henan war.
Jiang Shuangliu sent troops to Shunde Mansion!
Han Guang and Yanhua's army are in Shunde Mansion at the moment.
Immediately afterwards, news came that Baoding sent 20,000 troops to Zhending, Changping, Gaolu, and Mingyang, with a total of 100,000 troops marching to Shunde Mansion!
Whether it is Han Guangyanhua or Jiang Shuangliu, as long as Shunde Mansion is hit, it will be directed at the capital.
The 100,000 army of the imperial court was not so much to fight Han Guangyan as to defend.
It is not only Han Guang and Yan Hua who are defending, but also Jiang Shuangliu and the Western Qin Army, who are the kings of Qin!
Zhou Zheng walked around the house excitedly, and he asked, "Has the battle report from Yanbei been transmitted?" ”
The staff shook their heads, Yanbei's battle report had been cut off for many days.
Zhou Zheng sighed: "Even if it is just to drag Yang Qin, Lao Jiang has a thirty percent chance of winning this battle." ”
Yes, it's only Sancheng, this is still a situation where Yang Qin can't help, once Yang Qin enters Shanhaiguan, then even Sancheng has no hope.
The staff said: "The third prince must have forgotten, there is also Jiao Shengqi, Jiao Shengqi has no less than 100,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and seven is less than Jiao Shengqi has the grace to save his life." ”
Zhou Zheng said: "Mr. I'm afraid that he has a misunderstanding of the events of the day, this can't be blamed on you, can't be blamed, besides, Jiao Shengqi is not a person who confesses to himself in order to repay his kindness." ”
The changes in Luoyang, the staff did not know the details, but Zhou Zheng knew.
I'm afraid that for Jiao Shengqi, the person he wants to be grateful for is not Xiao Ren, but Shen Tong.
He couldn't help but say to himself: "Xiao Qi is really blessed to find Miss Shen." ”
The staff didn't know the inside story, and hurriedly echoed: "Why do the third prince envy the seventh young man, General Liu is now the president of the North Route Army, and the Liu family is a general, and he is the right hand man of the third prince every day." ”
Liu Yanbo, the president of the Northern Route Army, is the cousin of Zhou Zheng's wife, Liu Qianrui. Liu Yanbo is 18 years older than Liu Qianrui, and he is not yet 40 years old this year, but he has 20 years of experience in leading troops. Not only Liu Yanbo, but more than ten men from the Liu family are all in the Western Qin Army, and there are five of them in high positions.
In the Western Qin Army, if you talk about military merits, the Fan family army under Fan Guiying should be ranked first, but the Fan family is thin, and now only Fan Guiying can lead the troops, but the Liu family is different, in the past two years, the Liu family army has become more and more courageous, and the war achievements are impressive.
This time, the King of Qin sent troops and left the Fan family army in Yulin to prevent the Tartars from taking the opportunity to make a rebellion, so that in addition to the Xianyang army led by Jiang Shuangliu, it was the Liu family army.
Xiao Ren's 5,000 men were incorporated into the Liu family's army, and it was not until Xiao Ren came to Shanhaiguan that they returned to his command.
It can be seen that King Qin attaches great importance to the Liu family.
The Liu family is not only the Liu family, but also the in-laws of the King of Qin.
Although this dispatch was in the name of quelling the chaos, everyone knew the name.
Once the King of Qin sat on that dragon chair, the Liu family would be the prince's father-in-law, the future descendants.
The excitement in Zhou Zheng's eyes faded little by little.
Back in his room, Zhou Zheng rummaged around, and the attendant who served beside him hurriedly asked, "Third Prince, what are you looking for?" Let the slave and maid find it for you. ”
"It's the little portrait of the third lady, where did you put it?" Zhou Zheng asked, it seemed that he hadn't seen that small portrait for a long time.
The two chamberlains were stunned, they did remember that there was such a small statue, or when the third prince first came to Baoding, they asked the two of them to go to the painter under Qi Shao to draw it, but later the third prince put the small portrait, but they didn't know anything.
The two chamberlains rummaged through the study and bedroom, but in the end they could not find the small statue.
The two of them were disgraced, Zhou Zheng waved his hand when he saw it, and said: "It's just a small portrait, and it's not a celebrity calligraphy and painting, if you can't find it, you can't find it. ”
That's all there is to it.
But Zhou Zheng was very awkward in his heart, even he couldn't tell what it felt, ashamed, and a little lost.
He couldn't remember Liu Qianrui's appearance again.
After the painting was finished, he showed it to Xiao Ren, and wanted Xiao Ren to help him see if it looked like Liu Qianrui, but he was ridiculed by Xiao Ren for a few words, and he was embarrassed to ask again, so he put the small portrait up, and he went back and forth, and even he didn't know where to put it.
He sat in front of the window and remembered that one year, just because of Shen Tong's casual words, Xiao Ren held a locust banquet in the mansion and invited all the cooks in Xi'an who could make acacia cauliflower.
At that time, several of them laughed at Xiao Ren a lot, and deliberately made Xiao Ren make a fool of himself in front of Shen Tong, and Xiao Ren was so angry that he almost couldn't do it.
Thinking of this, Zhou Zheng couldn't help laughing.
At that time, they were still ignorant and young teenagers, playing together all day, but now, they are scattered, and they don't know when they will get together again.
Xiao Qi, that fool, has long liked Shen Tong, and he has done a lot of stupid things for Shen Tong.
Zhou Zheng sighed, Xiao Qi has liked Shen Tong for so long, and he has not hugged the beauty so far, but he has already married, but he has never done anything for his wife.
He didn't even remember what she looked like, once or twice, and he still didn't remember the portrait after looking at it.
A few times, he wanted to write a letter to Liu Qianrui, but when he picked up the pen, he didn't know what to write, writing about the war, she didn't understand, writing about Baoding was confidential, so he didn't write a word, just asked people to go to Yinlou to play a few valuable pieces of jewelry and take them to Xi'an.
