Zhang Yong's father-in-law's few words were about to change me from Langzhong to Jinyiwei, I was a little ignorant, and the family was shocked and almost couldn't believe it. My father's face turned serious, but I could feel him flustered, and his body trembled slightly. My grandfather pondered for a moment, looked at me, and did not make a sound, and Zhang Yong's father-in-law did not hesitate at all, after he finished talking about this matter, he talked to his grandfather about local affairs, probably related to the magistrates outside the door. My grandfather was very polite, saying that Baoding Mansion has been much more peaceful recently, and the common people have begun to cultivate one after another, and some taxes have been reduced a lot, and the common people can do their own things in their spare time. Zhang Yong's father-in-law nodded, saying that his hometown is here, and the local officials have to take care of some of it, but it is indeed a little lonely to say that my family is here, so it is better to move to the city and open a medical center, and it is also convenient to practice medicine. Grandfather said that he was used to it and didn't want to leave, not to mention that there were many famous doctors in the city, so there was no need to crowd together to grab food, but there were few Langzhong here, and he was more comfortable. Zhang Yong's father-in-law laughed and said: "Uncle, you are so polite, you are always worried about trouble, but it is just a gesture, since this is the case, you can't force it, there is indeed a need for a doctor here, and it is also convenient to see a doctor in ten miles and eight villages." However, my family has already produced two grandsons-in-law as officials, so our family will help produce another grandson as an official, which can be regarded as repaying my uncle for saving our three brothers, so don't talk about this matter anymore. This sentence means that I can't refute it. My father's face turned rosy, he gave me a hard look, and I went out, and soon there was a noise of busyness in the backyard, followed by low sobs from my mother.

I didn't feel a sour feeling in my heart, but Zhang Yong's father-in-law looked at me very casually and said, "Boy, do you know martial arts?" I glanced at my grandfather and said, "Just learned!" Grandfather said, "It's just some physical fitness!" Nothing! Zhang Yong's father-in-law was happy and said: "It doesn't matter, Jinyiwei and Dongchang have good kung fu, as long as you are willing to learn, there are people in our family to teach you!" ”

Without waiting for my grandfather to speak politely, someone outside hurriedly came in and said, "Father-in-law Zhang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is going back to the capital, and he urgently summons us to go back together." ”

Zhang Yong's father-in-law nodded and said, "It's time for our family to leave." Uncle, our family came in a hurry and didn't buy anything for you, so you can accept these silver tickets! As he spoke, a little eunuch brought up a stack of silver tickets, and his grandfather didn't dare to refuse, but gave a deep salute and said, "Thank you Father-in-law Zhang!" ”

Zhang Yong laughed and said: "Thank you, it's all a trivial matter, our family will go first, rest assured, your Zhang Ying is also our Zhang Ying, our family will not treat him badly, go back to Beijing and let him be the captain of the Jinyi Guard first, and then slowly promoted!" Young people, it's time to go on a rampage. Practicing medicine for generations, of course, is stable, but people always have some ambitions, whether they are children or not! We'll leave in a minute, and you can pack up too! ”

I didn't have time to think too much, so I had to follow Zhang Yong's father-in-law into Beijing. Although I am stubborn by nature, and although I have been away from home a lot in recent years, this time, it is uncomfortable from the bottom of my heart, and I always feel that I have to go far. I was born a mischievous child, and when I was a child, I was often slapped by my father, who was always serious, and perhaps because of the eldest son in the family, he always had to set an example for several uncles. Her mother is the daughter of a family of scholars, who is knowledgeable and reasonable, and her grandfather is very important. My grandfather surprisingly did not criticize me for being stubborn, and even warned my father not to be too harsh, saying that I was just lively and active, and that when I grew up, I would be able to become well-behaved, and just let me study more. After being scratched by the old wolf, I asked my little uncle to teach me martial arts, I like to dance with knives and guns, and often shout at my children to play, so that I get the children around the village together, and even know more parents than my grandfather.

Zhang Yong's tone was very stern, although he was still polite when talking to us, but there was no doubt that he was in a hurry. The reason why I came to my house is also to thank my family for saving their lives. My grandfather didn't have much reason to stay at home, and when I said goodbye to my tearful mother, he gave me a short sword, with a very ordinary appearance, even a little old, and said, "This sword is for you, and I will use it for self-defense." Remember, swords are for self-defense, not for fighting. I hurriedly agreed, Gonggong Zhang glanced at it, and the corners of his mouth curled: "Uncle, when our family returns to Beijing, give Zhang Ying a good sword!" ”

Grandfather said: "Thank you Father-in-law Zhang, it's just that this sword is also ancestral, give it to Ying'er for self-defense!" Ying'er followed you into Beijing, and if you don't do it right, please bear with me. Zhang Yong didn't say anything more, just nodded.

When I said goodbye to my grandfather and parents in tears, they had already gotten on the horse and waited, and I embarked on the road to Baoding Mansion with them. Those local officials stood respectfully on the side of the road, and Zhang Yong said a few words to Yan Yuese, and these people smiled happily. Of course, I quickly mixed a horse and a colorful dress, and even gave me an embroidered spring knife, which was arranged in the back, surrounded by a dozen young people wearing the same brocade clothes as me, needless to say that they were the lieutenants in the brocade guard, they all had stiff faces, and they didn't look at me, only occasionally flashing their eyes, or revealing a little reluctance and naivety. I had returned from the field in a hurry, only to see my grandfather and mother, and then left in a hurry, looking at my hometown getting farther and farther away, I was a little sad to the top, a little strange for my curiosity, so that I left home, away from my relatives, where to go? How do I know? I suppressed my sadness and uneasiness, but I still felt like I was crying.

Although we took the official road, we traveled slowly, and along the way, from time to time, people flew horses to report. The whole team is also stop-and-go. After about an hour, the sky gradually darkened, and I saw a forest in the distance, and suddenly gave an order to rest on the spot. There is no village in front of here, and there is no store in the back, how can you rest here? I don't want to think about it, the captains have already set up tents, and even set up bonfires and bury pots to cook. It can be seen that these people are well-trained and have become accustomed to this turbulent life.

The dark night made me feel better, and I could only sit boredly on the side, fiddling with the grass roots in my hands, and one of us was stopped from coming over in the afternoon, and there was no question: "I am Jian Cheng, I am a hundred households in Jinyiwei, responsible for guarding Father-in-law Zhang, you are a newcomer, go and help pick vegetables first!" I had to go over, there was an old and three young people who were busy cooking, the old one was full of wrinkles, I remember my grandfather's words, to be polite to others, busy hugging fists and saluting, the old one saw me hugging his fists and saluting, smiled at me kindly, and said, "New here, what's your name?" I reported my name, and he smiled: "I'm Lao Yu, and the three of them, like you, are all newcomers, Qian Sheng, Ning Boyang, and Hardy!" You can do odd jobs with them! Remember to be nimble with your hands and feet. ”

I said "um", the three of them had different attitudes towards me, Qian Sheng was very arrogant, he didn't even look at me, Ning Boyang was quite handsome, but he was also a little arrogant, but he could say a few polite words to me, only that Hardy, short and strong, looked me up and down, and said, "I heard that a newcomer came, it turned out to be you!" "I didn't dare to say much, so I briefly introduced myself. Then follow them to do some work, and in a short time, the meal is ready. Everyone sat around the campfire to eat, and several high-ranking officials sat on chairs to eat, while Zhang Yong sat in the big tent and ate alone, and Jian Cheng stood outside the tent.

I had just eaten two bites of rice, and Jian Cheng came over and said, "Grandpa Zhang asked you to come over for dinner!" "I was a little surprised, everyone was surprised, and I put down my job and followed. In the bright candlelight, Zhang Yong sat behind a table in civilian clothes, and two little eunuchs were waiting next to him, and the table was full of food and even wine. I carefully saluted him, and he raised his hand and said, "Don't be so restrained, whatever!" Motioning for me to sit down, Jian Cheng was about to withdraw, Zhang Yongdao: "You can also sit down and eat, our family can't eat too much!" ”

Jian Cheng nodded respectfully and sat down to eat, without making a sound at all. I thought that this Zhang Yong must be a majestic person, but Zhang Yong laughed out loud and said, "Lao Jiao, it's boring to eat, can you drink some wine?" You've put a lot of thought into it along the way. By the way, Zhang Ying, you can come too! His tone was quite stern, and he couldn't help but say, the two little eunuchs poured a glass of wine for each of us, and he was a little frightened, and got up and said, "Thank you Zhang Gong, I respect you!" Zhang Yong nodded, motioned for me to drink together, I rarely drink this kind of wine, I barely took a sip, I felt extraordinarily fragrant, that Zhang Yong looked at the two of us and drank, he also took a sip, and said with a smile: "This is our family's hometown, although our family has two brothers, but in the final analysis, our family has no descendants, as a father-in-law, I hope that some land is also a matter of course." The prince was loved, and gave our family a field in his hometown, and our family asked my brother to rent it out, and the farmer who farmed the land was also regarded as a villager in the village, and he would give some rent every year. I don't want them to pay attention to the kindness of our family, saying that the time is not good, and they don't pay the rent, and the brother is a shy person, so they can't say anything about them at all, all year round, a large field is barren in vain, and there is no harvest. When our family came back this time, there was no bad harvest, it was clear that these farmers were making trouble, and our family was angry and asked the county officials to arrest these people and convict them. As a result, the family members of these farmers blocked the door of our house early in the morning, knelt on the ground, wailed and cried, saying that they should not give our family rent, so as to live up to our family's kindness to our neighbors. Zhang Yong said this, looked at us, and said, "You say, what should our family do?" ”

Jian Cheng and I were stunned for a moment, looked at each other, and Jian Cheng said: "This kind of Diao people, heavy punishment is!" Zhang Yong sighed and said: "It stands to reason that it should be so, the law of the Ming Dynasty is clearly written, but our family thinks, these people are not easy, and they are our fellow countrymen, hey, forget it, I would rather others bear our family, and our family does not want to leave a bad reputation because of some trivial things." Our family has always been kind-hearted and soft-faced, although we led the Shenji Battalion, but when we saw no one crying, not only did we release them all, but also the land rent was waived! Jian Cheng's face changed slightly, but he stood up, held a wine glass and said: "My father-in-law really loves the people like a son, and my subordinates respect my father-in-law with a glass!" "Anyway, drink it all. Zhang Yong nodded, took a sip of it, motioned for him to sit down, and suddenly said, "I heard that someone wants to take our head?" You know, right? ”

Jian Cheng was taken aback, quickly stood up again, and said, "My subordinates don't know, who is so bold?" Please make it clear to your father-in-law, and his subordinates will go and break him into pieces! Zhang Yong sneered and said, "I heard that our family has arranged everything in front, as long as we go over, we will do it immediately!" Come! The two lieutenants walked in with a person, who was also wearing the clothes of the brocade guard, fell to his knees, and said, "Zhang Gong spares his life, Zhang Gong spares his life, I am ordered by Lord Jian to go to the front to report the news!" ”

"Fang Lin, you are spewing blood, when will I let you go!" Jian Cheng's face changed greatly, his voice trembled a little, he turned to look at the person named Fang Lin, suddenly raised his hand, Zhang Yong said sharply: "Old Jian, what are you going to do?" Before the words fell, two cold lights had already hit Zhang Yong.

It was two Hidden Arrows that shot out!
