Chapter 303: The Great Camp of the West Mountain
March is fleeting.
In the blink of an eye, it's March.
The sun is getting warmer and warmer, the earth is revived, the green willows are pulling out new shoots, and spring is everywhere, and there is no trace of chill.
Zhang Liang has been studying with Xu Guangqi for three months, and the weather is still good these days, plus Zhang Yun is idle at home during this time, so he naturally has the idea of going on a trip.
No, as soon as Zhang Yungang proposed it, the two little guys immediately screamed excitedly.
Zhang Liang looked at his sister and sister so happy, and a trace of loss flashed in his eyes: "Father, Mr. Xu said that I would go to him tomorrow..."
"It's okay, it's okay to go one day less, I'll send someone to talk to him."
"Really?" Zhang Liang exclaimed, and then cast an inquiring glance at his mother, "Can I?" Mother. ”
Xu Xi touched his son's head with a smile and said, "Let's have a day off tomorrow." ”
"Great!"
In the city of Beijing in March, the willows are swaying in the wind, and the palaces and towers reflect each other. A gust of wind blows, and bright red petals float in the air, bringing bursts of fragrance at the same time, adding a few different colors to this spring day.
Out of the city of Beijing, on the official road to Xishan, there are crowds.
Many people had the same idea as Zhang Yun's family, and the people were surging and moving slowly along the way.
In the Yongding River, not far from the West Mountain, many people have laid out blankets and occupied their positions at this moment.
Zhang Yun's family came late, found a shady place at random, spread out the blanket and sat down, and the people who accompanied him hurriedly took out the ingredients and wine and placed them in it.
The river was murmuring, and in the quiet afternoon, Zhang Zhu's big eyes gurgled for a while, ready to rush to the river.
Fortunately, Zhang Yun's hands were quick, and he picked her up as soon as he could, "You have a lot of skills, don't you, and you still want to escape from your father?" ”
Zhang Zhu stuck out his tongue, and a pair of pink little hands wrapped around Zhang Yun's neck.
"Don't play in the water, don't run far, only within my field of vision."
Zhang Zhu's chick nodded like a peck of rice.
"Go ahead." Zhang Yun let go of her daughter, and she left with Zhang Xuanfei as if she were flying, "You can go too." ”
"Thank you, father." Zhang Liang saluted his father and went to chase his sister's steps, and after a while, the cheerful sound of several people chasing after him sounded on the grass.
The person in charge of the caretaker on the side was terrified, for fear that a few little ancestors would be broken.
Zhang Yun hugged Xu Xi on his left shoulder, and Zhu Ziyi on his right to enjoy the blessings of Qi people, and the two of them also peeled fruit from the blanket from time to time and put it in his mouth, so happy.
"Lady, I finally know why the king didn't come to court early." Zhang Yun couldn't help hugging the two of them tighter, and laughed, "If the king's concubines are as charming and moving as you, what kind of dynasty is this." ”
"Stinky poverty." Xu Xi took a sip of red, "In a few years, I will be old and decrepit, and you will definitely get tired of me." ”
"Fortunately, I have a good child with me, if you dare to bully me, when he grows up, hum."
Zhu Ziyi covered her mouth and chuckled: "Where does my sister speak, maybe my sister will be more charming in a few years."
Wasn't Concubine Wan also 17 years older than Emperor Xianzong? still spoil the harem, I heard that she is in her fifties, and Your Majesty will still ......."
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the two daughters showed a touch of crimson.
As the sun rises, the surroundings become even warmer, and the dappled sunlight shines through the leaves, making it seem particularly holy and quiet.
"Daddy, Daddy." At this time, the three little guys ran back sweating profusely, especially Zhang Zhu, covered in dust.
As soon as he ran back, he threw himself into Zhang Yun's arms and said coquettishly: "Daddy, my feet hurt." ”
"Don't run around, you have to run blind, now you know it's amazing." Zhang Yun blamed her while taking off her little shoes and preparing to knead her little feet for her.
The rest of the people all widened their eyes and looked at Zhang Yun as a daughter slave.
"Ahem...... Zhang Yun looked at his wife's gaze, and said with a straight face, "My daughter's feet hurt, I'll help her rub them, otherwise I'll have to bear it when I go back." ”
After speaking, she gently rubbed her little feet for her eldest daughter, and she grabbed the fruit on the blanket and sent it to her mouth.
It didn't take long for the eldest daughter to lie in her arms and fall asleep.
"Xuan'er, do your feet hurt?" Zhang Yun glanced at his second daughter and asked softly.
Zhang Xuan glanced at her father, then at her mother, and finally nodded, "It hurts." ”
Zhang Yun smiled, put Zhang Zhu aside, and then picked Zhang Xuan up and carefully kneaded her little feet.
The intimate appearance made Zhang Liang on the side feel sad.
"Liang'er, come to your mother." Xu Xi noticed his son's strange appearance, waved at him, and called softly.
Zhang Liang instantly threw himself into his mother's arms, and also learned the appearance of his sister and sister to be coquettish to his mother like his father.
However, as soon as he had this sign, he saw his mother glaring at him with a cold face.
He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, sat down obediently, and let his mother wipe the sweat from his face for him.
"Liang'er, what have you learned from Mr. Xu recently?" Xu Xi glanced at her husband and deliberately raised her voice.
"Sir taught the Analects."
"Then you tell your mother."
Zhang Liang glanced at his father and slowly spoke: "Zi said: "When a disciple enters, he is filial, and when he goes out, he is a younger brother. ””
"Confucius said that you should be filial to your parents at home, respect your brothers and friends when you are outside, be cautious in your words and deeds, be fraternal, and at the same time be close to the gentleman, and if you have other energy, you must learn culture."
"Not bad." When Zhang Yun heard this, his serious expression became kind, "I hope you can do what you said today." ”
"Yes!" Zhang Liang rarely heard his father's praise, so he hurriedly responded.
Next, Zhang Liang recited a few more sentences of the Analects and explained them, winning applause in unison.
Even Zhang Yun, who has always been strict with him, couldn't help but nod his head again and again.
Time passed minute by minute, and the sun set.
Zhang Yun handed Zhang Xuan, who was sleeping in his arms, to Zhu Ziyi, explained to his wife, and then got up and walked to the Xishan camp in the depths.
In the camp, the shouts shook the sky, and people with armor could be seen walking back and forth everywhere.
Zhang Yun entered the camp and instructed his entourage: "Go and call Zhao Hu to me." ”
Not long after, a hearty voice came from outside the tent: "Hahaha... My lord, I thought you weren't coming. ”
Before the person arrives, the sound comes first.
In the next moment, Zhao Hu appeared in the tent.
"How's the school I asked you to build?"
"Don't worry, you can use it now." Zhao Hu bowed his waist and clenched his fists, "It's just, where did this student come from?" ”
Zhang Yun already had a countermeasure in his heart: "All officers above the general level of the Changning Army can directly enter, and the others will pass the assessment and be selected for admission." ”
"My lord, how many people are you going to recruit?"
"In the first issue, let's recruit him a thousand people first." Zhang Yun pondered for a moment and slowly spoke.
.....
After instructing Zhao Hu, Zhang Yun returned and took his wife and children and began to run home.
In the carriage, Xu Xi leaned on her husband's shoulder and said softly: "Don't keep keeping a straight face with Liang'er in the future, you are about to scare him out of the shadows." ”
Zhang Yun did not respond positively, but said with a straight face: "Lady, when Liang'er is two or three years older, you can teach him some martial arts for self-defense."
Even if you can't defend yourself, it's good to be able to keep fit. ”
Xu Xi smiled: "What, are you still afraid that someone will bully your precious son." ”
"I'm afraid that in the future, he won't even be able to subdue his own wife, and he won't be bullied every day."
When Xu Xi heard this, his face turned crimson, and he took a sip, "Bad embryo." ”
Zhang Yun was speechless for a moment, he spoke seriously, how did he become a bad embryo.
Speaking of Zhang Liang's future wife, Xu Xi seemed to have opened the chatterbox, and started looking for him now, so as not to be snatched away.
"As long as you don't marry the royal family." Zhang Yun said quietly.
Last year, Wanli also wanted to marry his eldest daughter for his third son, but he politely refused, and now he wants his son Princess Shang.
The royal family has been ruthless since ancient times, and he doesn't plan to let his children enter this big dye vat.
