Chapter Seventy-Eight: Yucui Urges Marriage
Zhang Wuji's co-optation of Wang Ben has also been investigated, and he learned from the shopkeeper and the people around him that although this Wang Taishou is not a son who loves the people, he is not a faint official, a corrupt official, and can only be said to be a decent one.
Such a person has the value of co-optation, and looking at the situation in this city, the market is quite prosperous. If the parents here are the kind who scrape the ground, I'm afraid it won't be so lively here.
At present, there is no way to open the imperial examination and take the scholar, and it is precisely when this kind of magistrate who can govern the local government is needed. Therefore, Zhang Wuji planned to adopt him.
Half a day later, Zhao Qi rushed from Yangping Pass to Hanzhong City to meet Zhang Wuji.
And Zhang Wuji also began to arrange the next stage of the strategic plan.
Now that Hanzhong City has fallen into their hands, they have to look at Shu, and the next plan is to capture Bashu. However, the most important thing for the soldiers to be tired is to rest the team. It's not too late to talk about everything after a while.
On this day, Zhang Wuji summoned Zhao Qi and Wang Ben in the lobby of the Taishou Mansion, and he asked: "Wang Taishou, you have been running Hanzhong for many years, I wonder if you know the Yinping path that can bypass the Sword Pavilion Pass?" ”
Wang Ben, who was sitting lying down, thought for a moment and replied: "Back to the emperor, this Yinping path is just a legend, although Deng Ai once took this road to destroy Shu, but later generations have not really seen it." ”
Zhang Wuji muttered, "That's it." Looks like we're going to have to take the Sword Gate? ”
"Even if you attack it, it's not difficult!"
Hearing this familiar voice, Zhang Wuji looked towards the door.
I saw that all of my harem groups had arrived here. And the one who spoke was Hoga.
Zhang Wuji was not surprised by their arrival, now that Hanzhong City had been collected, it would become an outpost for attacking Chang'an City. It is also the closest place where a large army can be housed.
Zhang Wuji looked at Huo Jia in front of the door and asked, "Oh? Does the Hoga Sect Master have a way? ”
Seeing that Zhang Wuji's women had all come in, Zhao Qi waved his hand at Wang Taishou with great discernment, and then the two hurriedly saluted and retired.
Hoga smiled and said, "Of course. I had sent a messenger to Persia to deliver a shipment of demonic blood. Originally, it was intended to be used to capture Chang'an City. But the road was far away, and the group of wastes of the Treasure Tree King had just arrived. Now if you want to attack the Sword Gate, it can come in handy. ”
Zhang Wuji looked at Zhao Min beside Huo Jia, and he asked, "Min Min, did you tell Huo Jia Sect Master that the Sword Gate is closed?" ”
Zhao Min asked, "What?" ”
Zhang Wuji said helplessly: "Otherwise, how could such a foreigner as the Huojia Sect Master know what place the Sword Gate Pass is?" ”
Huo Jia smiled at this time: "Stinky boy, don't look down on people. This seat loves Tang poetry. The poems of Li Bai, Wang Wei, Cui Hao, Bai Juyi and others have all been recited. Jianmen Pass is the place where Tang Xuanzong took refuge in Shu back then, so I naturally know something? But I want to see if it's your Central Plains that is the most dangerous in the world, or our Persian 'devil's blood'! ”
But Huo Jia didn't have long to be complacent, and Zhang Wuji directly vetoed it: "No! ”
Hearing this, Huo Jia snorted lightly, glanced at Zhang Wuji with his hands, and then turned his head sideways. Huo Jia muttered in a low voice, "I don't know what to do, stinky boy! ”
Zhao Min said at this time: "Brother Wuji, I feel that the plan of the Huojia Sect Master is feasible. Jianmen Pass has been a natural danger since ancient times, and it is difficult to forcibly break through. If we force it, it will cost a lot of money. Although it is a bit cruel to use something like 'devil's blood', there is no way to do it. Since ancient times, a general has achieved ten thousand bones and withered bones, marching and fighting, and the kindness of women is unacceptable. ”
Zhang Wuji shook his head at this time and said, "Oh! You misunderstood me. It's not that I think it's cruel, it's just that the devil's blood comes from Persia, and it's a long way to go, and the cost of shipping it is too high. Good steel should be used on the blade, and there is no need to consume it for the sake of a sword pavilion. If this thing is at my fingertips, I will definitely not be stingy. ”
Zhang Wuji's words stunned everyone. originally thought that Zhang Wuji was too soft, and he didn't like it enough after making trouble for a long time.
Zhao Min asked at this time: "Then what do you say?" ”
Zhang Wuji thought for a moment and said, "I still plan to sneak attack from the Yinping Path. Although Wang Taishou didn't know the direction of this Yinping path, since Deng Ai had walked through it back then, then he must exist. Anyway, the troops are in a period of recuperation, why don't we go and find out for ourselves? Just take everyone to play for two days! ”
After hearing Zhang Wuji's proposal, Yin Li took the lead in saying: "Okay! During this time, I stayed at home in Zhongnan Mountain, and I was about to suffocate to death, and it was rare to have other places to go. Since we parted at the top of the light, we haven't gone out together. This is a rare opportunity. ”
Yang Buregret also echoed: "Yes! Brother Wuji was worried about Hanzhong's affairs before. It's been planning. Even if Dad and Sister Zhu were safe and sound, we didn't celebrate properly. This is indeed a good opportunity. ”
And Yucui, who was standing behind the woman in the yellow shirt, shook her head and said, "I think the top priority is the marriage of my young lady." When my brother Wuji was in Persia, he promised to marry my young lady after returning to the Central Plains. It's been more than half a year. I don't know when Brother Mowgli plans to drag it out? ”
Hearing Yucui's words, the woman in the yellow shirt reprimanded: "Okay Cui'er, don't mention this matter again." At the moment, Wuji is busy with the war, and these little things can be put aside. ”
Zhou Zhiruo said at this time: "Brother Wuji, I think this matter should not be delayed any longer. ”
Seeing that they were coming at him again, Zhang Wuji waved his hand and said, "Let it go, let it go." After we recapture the imperial palace in Bianzhou, everyone's canonization ceremony must not be ambiguous. ”
When the woman in the yellow shirt heard this, she replied: "Wuji, if you and I get married, there will be no need for the canonization ceremony." My ancient tomb sent women to get married, and they have always saluted in front of the portrait of the patriarch's mother-in-law. I can't break this rule. ”
"Alright! It's better to do this, wait until you take Bashu and get through the two places. I married Sister Caiwei. ”
Yucui squinted her eyes and said, "Brother Wuji, you won't break your promise again this time." ”
Zhang Wuji smiled awkwardly, then raised his right hand and said: "I guarantee in the name of Ming Zun, Emperor Ming, that you have no jokes!" ”
Yucui also intervened and said, "Okay! Believe you again! Brother Wuji is really, my young lady looks like a fairy, if she were someone else, she would have been impatient. That's why you're so calm. ”
"Isn't it not long after I returned to the Central Plains, and there are a lot of things. This time I promise I won't break my promise! Zhang Wuji couldn't help but smile.
In fact, Zhang Wuji is also bitter in his heart, he has long coveted the woman in the yellow shirt. But now is not the time to relax.
At present, the world is in turmoil, and the situation is extremely favorable to him. If you don't wait for anyone, if you don't take this opportunity to arrange everything, if the world changes, it will be too late.
It's okay to spend a good night with a beautiful woman, but if you miss such an opportunity, you may never have it again.
