Chapter 155: The Great Zhou War King
Zhou Weiji rode a fast horse from Meixian County, and arrived in Dongping Prefecture in only half a day, and the Zhou Dynasty was an administrative setting higher than the county, which was naturally much more prosperous than the county. Due to its proximity to the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Dongping Prefecture has a very developed economy and culture, and the yamen of the state capital is naturally much more magnificent than the yamen at the county level such as Meixian and Huangxian.
Zhou Weiji bypassed the Dongping Mansion and went to the place where the high-ranking officials in the state capital behind the government were gathered, and stopped in front of the Tongju Mansion.
There were two high-headed stone lions squatting in front of the gate of the Tongju Mansion, tying their horses to the stakes, and he saw that in addition to the four guards guarding the door, there were also two red-clothed sword guards at the gate of the Tongju Mansion.
This is a little unusual, Zhou Wei raised his eyebrows and walked up the steps quickly. He was dressed in a cyan robe today, and he was not wearing a fast hunting suit, and the two red-clothed guards saw him come up and hold down the handle of the knife with one hand, and stop Zhou Weiji with the other, "This is the general judgment mansion, and idle people are not allowed to enter!" ”
The four servants guarding the door didn't recognize Zhou Weiji, and saw that he was dressed ordinarily but had an extraordinary bearing, so they asked politely, "May I ask this master, what is the matter with you coming to our Tongju Mansion, and who are you looking for?" ”
Zhou Weiji touched his chin with his beard off and asked, "Are the two of you the personal guards of Prince Guo?" ”
The red-clothed guards are the personal guards of Guo Nanyuan, the god of war of the Great Zhou Dynasty, this is well known, the two red-clothed guards were expressionless, and replied sternly: "Exactly." ”
This is really a coincidence, Zhou Weiji showed a contemplative expression, the prince is an important minister of the imperial court, how could he be here?
"Trouble to inform Li Tong's judgment on his behalf, and Zhou Weiji of Huangxian County asked to see him."
When one of the people in the door heard Zhou Weiji's name, he was stunned at first, and after careful identification, he recognized Zhou Weiji's appearance: "It turned out to be Master Tuesday, the little ones are really clumsy." Come in, and the villain will immediately report it. ”
When the two red-clothed guards heard the doorman's words, they also let go of their hands that pressed their knives, but they still did not let go of their hands to look at him. Zhou Weiji didn't make any trouble, just waited quietly.
After a while, there was a sound of hurried footsteps from inside the door, and people heard it before they arrived: "Second Zhou, what kind of wind blew you here!" ”
The doorman and the guards all recognized that it was the general judge Li Jingang who came to greet him in person, and they both showed a slightly surprised expression, the doorman hurriedly bowed down to his luggage, and the two guards also let go of their arms.
"Haha, Zhou Lao Er, no wonder Menzi doesn't dare to admit it, why did you change your appearance like this, and make your mother so neat!" Li Jingang saw Zhou Weiji's appearance and laughed.
Zhou Weiji was slightly embarrassed, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a year, but Brother Li still has the same demeanor." ”
Li Jingang has been a general judge for more than a year, but he is still the same as when he was in the army, a sloppy beard, scolding when he opens his mouth, even if he wears a five-grade green round-necked and big-sleeved official uniform, he still has no appearance that a civilian official should have.
Li Jingang pulled Zhou Weiji into the door, "You are really a coincidence, the prince just arrived today and is resting in the mansion." ”
Zhou Weiji nodded and asked in a low voice, "How could the prince leave Beijing?" ”
Li Jingang's rough face showed a few traces of cunning and alertness, which was very different from the impression he usually gave people, "It's not a bad thing, the prince has just stepped down from the post of secretary of the military department, and all the forces in Beijing are chaotic, so the prince said that he was unwell, and the emperor kindly allowed him to go out of Beijing to relax." ”
Zhou Weiji nodded, and after the victory at the border pass, the prince returned to Beijing, and was entrusted with the important task of leading the military department by the current emperor. "Then where does the prince live now?"
"The Squire of the Army." The military department from the second rank will be the soldier from the third grade, and he is demoted, no wonder the prince is "unwell".
The two entered the main hall, and Guo Nanyuan, who had a big beard, also laughed when he saw Zhou Weiji, "Weiji, you look much more delicate now, and you look a little more Wenchen than King Kong." ”
Li Jingang smiled, and Zhou Weiji hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down on one knee to salute: "See the prince for his humble position." ”
Guo Nanyuan stepped forward to help him up, "Farewell to the battlefield, we haven't seen each other for three years, and we will definitely get drunk today." ”
Zhou Weiji nodded, and Li Jingang smiled: "It's a pity that the military advisor didn't come with the prince, and today's wine is less interesting." ”
At the border pass, Ge Junshi, who has always been stricter than him, will go crazy every time he gets drunk, ensuring that the wine jar is shaky, and those who read it in his mouth are also happy, which is the favorite scene of the brothers in the army.
Guo Nanyuan smiled, "Ge Junshi is still handling official affairs for this king in Beijing, and you also know his one-dimensional temperament, if he wants to put down things and come out to play, don't beat him up and kill him." Wei Ji, why did you have to come from Huangxian, but you have business to do? ”
Zhou Weiji shook his head, and Li Jingang smiled: "That's strange, what a big private matter actually made you come from thousands of miles away, could it be that your kid is going to marry a daughter-in-law, and he specially came to ask my brother to watch the ceremony?" Tell me quickly, no matter what it is, we will definitely go. ”
Guo Nanyuan sat down and teased: "Wei Ji, it's rare that you have the idea of getting married, and this king will have to give a generous gift." ”
Zhou Weiji's temperament they understand, there is nothing important and they will not come to the special place, Guo Nanyuan waved his hand and retreated, looking at him quietly.
Zhou Wei scratched his head embarrassedly, grinned, "Lord Wang, Brother Li, I was really guessed by you, I really want to get married." ”
Li Jingang squirted out the tea with a "poof", "Brother, which girl is so blind, like the Iron Lady, who fell in love with you?" ”
Zhou Weiji smiled a little proudly, but he didn't mention Lan Yi's matter, "I came this time, and I did ask Brother Li for help." ”
Zhou Weiji briefly talked about Wenxuan's matter, explaining the reason, "Brother Li, this matter is going to trouble you." ”
Li Jingang nodded and glanced at Zhou Weiji a little strangely. This is not a big deal, Zhou Weiji actually came to him for the adopted son of the little daughter-in-law who has not passed the door, which shows that he put this little daughter-in-law on the top of his heart, but he didn't expect him to have today.
"King Kong, who is the magistrate of Meixian County?"
Li Jingang showed a disdainful expression, "Tian Daozhi, the magistrate of Meixian County, is a complete hypocrite and a real villain, but this person is cautious and good at greeting. If it is really calculated, he is related to Wei Xiang, the prefect of Dongping, and Wei Xiang's wife and Tian Daozhi's wife are sisters of the same clan. Wei Ji, this is not a big deal, when I repair a letter with him, just a few words, he will know how to do things. ”
Guo Nanyuan shook his head, "Why bother, this king has nowhere to go, it is better to follow Wei Ji to Meixian for a walk, this king is now very curious about his little daughter-in-law who has not passed the door." ”
Hearing what the prince said, Li Jingang paused, and then smiled, "Exactly, a certain person has been in a panic recently, and it is a great pleasure to be able to travel with the prince again." ”
Zhou Weiji hurriedly stood up and arched his hand, "Why do you need to go out in person for this little thing, the prince is humiliating." ”
Guo Nanyuan smiled lightly, "It's not all for you, this king is going to Yidu to do some things." ”
From Dongping to Yidu, if you ride a horse, you do have to pass through Meixian, Zhou Weiji nodded.
He thought of Dao Wufeng's matter, "Lord Wang, do you remember Zhao Wufeng?" ”
Guo Nanyuan nodded, "Zhao Kuaidao, who killed dozens of enemies in one night, is deeply impressed. Could it be that he showed up? ”
"Not bad. A few days ago, he met him in Meixian County, but he has now changed his name to Dao Wufeng, and he is wandering alone in Meixian. ”
Guo Nanyuan's eyes lit up, "This king is really worth the trip, I didn't expect to meet so many old people." When you arrive in Meixian, you call him over, and this king will see you. ”
Since the prince wants to see him, he wants to give him a chance to follow the prince again, which is a great opportunity for Dao Wufeng to be a new man.
However, Dao Wufeng's background is embarrassing, and if he doesn't pay attention to it, he will cause trouble for the prince, Li Jingang persuaded: "Prince, this matter still needs to be discussed in the long run, if you take Wufeng back, I am afraid that it will not be easy to explain it to the military advisor." ”
Zhou Weiji also persuaded: "Lord Wang, I don't think that Wufeng has any intention of getting involved in the border customs anymore, and only thinks about falling into the grass for the people and being happy." The prince will follow his wishes. ”
Guo Nanyuan looked at the appearance of the two of them and sighed, "Why are the old departments of this king like this, Wei Ji, you went back to your hometown to be the head of the team, and the knife is useless; Wu Feng is a good kung fu but has no way to serve the country. Oh, and Yongshen, how is he doing now? ”
Zhou Weiji arched his hand, "There is Lord Lao who is concerned, and the eldest brother is still in good health." ”
Li Jingang saw that Guo Nanyuan was a little depressed when he mentioned the old things, and hurriedly smiled: "Lord Wang, Brother Zhou, it's rare that the three of us can reunite here today. ”
Zhou Weiji's departure was five days, and Lan Yi was extremely worried, but she could only wait patiently.
Five days later, Zhou Weiji finally returned on horseback.
When the family welcomed him in, they all had concerned expressions on their faces. Zhou Weiji looked at the several faces in front of him that were very similar in appearance and expression, and couldn't help grinning.
When he smiled, everyone knew that it was done, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Lan Yi couldn't help but take a step forward, wanting to ask but not asking.
Zheng Shi was a little amused when he saw him like this, but he still said: "Wei Ji, if you are cold and hungry all the way back, I will go and make you some food, Rong'er, you go and feed the horse first." ”
Wang Chunrong made a grimace and went out in response, and took the door with him, leaving only Lan Yi and Zhou Weiji in the room.
Lan Yi blushed a little, she naturally understood that this was a special place for the family to let them talk.
Zhou Weiji looked at the lovely person in front of him, couldn't help but step forward and hugged her in his arms, put his nose close to her hair and took a deep breath, thinking about her so much.
Along the way, Zhou Weiji was ridiculed by the prince, Li Jingang and others, saying that he finally had a child relationship, and he was eager to see what his little daughter-in-law looked like. Zhou Weiji listened all the way, and his thoughts about Lan Yi were naturally more difficult to contain.
Lan Yi obediently hugged him, "Brother Tuesday, this time you owe favors for our mother and son, it's hard for you." ”
Hearing these words in his ears, he brushed Zhou Weiji's heart like a feather, and he hugged Lan Yi tighter with both hands.
She knew she didn't like to ask for people! R1152
