Chapter 143: Joy and Love

The carriage went straight into the back office of the county guard's mansion, and at the place where the curtain was raised, a young woman came down, with light makeup, plain clothes, and beautiful flowers, which was Zhang Ji's wife Zou. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Zou saw Wei Xuan under the guidance of the maid, bowed slightly, and said lightly: "The concubine is filial piety, and it is inconvenient to salute, please forgive me." ”

As the saying goes, if you want to be pretty, you have three points of filial piety. Zou is dressed in plain clothes, but he is more bright than in the past. Rao is Wei Xuan is used to seeing beauties, and he can't help but feel refreshed. Fortunately, Wei Xuan still had some concentration, so he quickly took a deep breath, got rid of the distracting thoughts in his mind, pointed to the opposite side, and said, "Madam, please take a seat." ”

Zou squirmed: "In front of the prince, how can there be a seat for a cheap concubine." ”

Wei Xuan said with a smile: "The year before last, General Zhang accompanied Gu Tong to visit relatives in Chenliu, and Zhao Ji also lost to having his wife to accompany him, so as to avoid a boring journey. Lone and General Zhang are also considered to be good in the family, but it doesn't hurt to sit down. ”

Zou sat down in front of a few cases and said softly, "Xie Junhou gave me a seat." ”

After the loss of her husband, Zou was more generous and dignified than before, coupled with her charming face and bewitching posture, which added a few different charms, no wonder Cao Cao took a fancy to her at a glance, and finally lost the lives of her son and confidant in vain. Wei Xuan would not repeat Cao Cao's mistakes, and deliberately sighed: "Lone and General Zhang have been separated for many years, and I don't want to be separated from heaven and man from now on." ”

Zou didn't answer, just lowered his head, his expression changed slightly.

Wei Xuan took all of Zou's reactions into his eyes, his face suddenly turned cold, and asked, "However, General Zhang is dead, please mourn your wife." However, there is something unclear about Ran Gu, why doesn't Madame want to follow General Zhang's last words?"

Zou pursed his lips slightly, still silent.

Wei Xuan snorted coldly: "Please also ask Mrs. to teach Gu!"

The Zou family had never seen Wei Xuan's fierce side, so he couldn't help but shudder, then gritted his teeth, and said loudly: "Zhang Ji is dead, and the concubine will have nothing to do with him after the expiration of the filial piety period, and now I don't want to hear his name, and I hope that the prince and the marquis will remember the hardships of the concubine." ”

Wei Xuan was stunned by her, and said in a deep voice: "Madame, if you have any troubles, you can tell Yu Lonely." ”

Zou sighed: "The concubine is really ashamed to speak, but the prince and the marquis asked, and the concubine dare not say anything." ”

It turned out that Zhang Ji was indeed guarding against the Zou family, and whether it was in Luoyang or Tiger Prison, she was not allowed to contact men. But Zhang Ji always took the Zou family with him, and the Zou family's fame inevitably spread gradually among the Xiliang army.

After Dong Yue surrendered, Zhang Ji certainly didn't want the Zou family to fall into the hands of the enemy, so he fled with the Zou family. Zou couldn't ride a horse, so he could only ride a car. In this way, the speed of the march was slowed down, and as a result, he was caught up and surrounded by Dong Yue and Song Guo when he was in Yangcheng.

At that time, Zhang Ji only had more than ten horsemen left to accompany him, and he knew that he couldn't escape, so he told Dong Yue about the friendship of his colleagues and asked Dong Yue to let him and his wife leave. Dong Yue heard the good name of the Zou family for a long time, and even proposed to let Zhang Ji sacrifice the Zou family before he was willing to withdraw the army. Zhang Ji only wanted to survive at the moment, and he couldn't care about Zou anymore, so he actually agreed to come down and let Zou get off instead. Zou did not obey and put a sword on his neck. Dong Yue was furious and was about to take it by force, just when Xu Huang led the army to arrive, and he killed for a while, and Zhang Ji also died in the chaos.

Wei Xuan didn't expect such a twist and turn story, he was wrong about Zou just now, and couldn't help but sigh: "I can't see that Zhang Ji is such a person!"

Zou suddenly pulled the placket of his clothes down, and said: "The concubine has no lies, if the prince doesn't believe it, you can see that the sword marks are still on the concubine's neck." ”

Wei Xuan really saw that there was a slender scar on her white neck, and the blood scab had not yet fallen off, so he believed her words a little, and nodded: "Husband and wife are originally birds of the same forest, and they fly separately when the disaster comes." Zhang Ji has returned to the loess, and his wife does not need to be held accountable. ”

Zou smiled bitterly: "Since they have already flown separately, the concubine has nothing to do with him, so why should he expect his nephew to take care of him." It's just that the concubine has a saying, I don't know if to ask?"

Wei Xuan smiled: "Madam, but it doesn't hurt to ask. ”

Zou's beautiful eyes flowed, and he suddenly stared at Wei Xuan tightly, and asked, "If one day the prince is killed, will they also fly separately?"

Wei Xuan patted the case and said: "A manly husband, if you can't protect your wife and children, you will live in vain in the world!"

When he said this, Wei Xuan pinched hard in his heart. If he can finally return to the 21st century, and his wife and children disappear into the mirror plane, how can he be considered a manly man?

Zou said gloomily: "The concubine is really envious of Mrs. Zhaoji! Her mother and son are taken care of by the prince, and I don't know if it is a blessing that has been cultivated for several generations." ”

When Wei Xuan heard Zou mention his wife and children again, he suddenly remembered something, stroked his forehead and said, "In five days, the child will be one year old." Mrs. Zou, if you want to catch up with Zhao Ji, go back to Xiangyang with Lonely!"

Zou couldn't ask for it, so he hurriedly got up and thanked him.

......

Wei Xuan's expedition to Yang, Xu, and Henan lasted five months. In the past five months, Xiangyang City has undergone earth-shaking changes. The imperial court changed dramatically, wars broke out, and the wealthy families with a little foresight began to set their sights on finding a place to live, and the expanded Xiangyang City became their first choice.

After these wealthy families came to Xiangyang, the first thing they did was naturally to buy land and build houses. They are not qualified to enter the inner city, so they can only compete for a good piece of land in the outer city. There are only so many good lands, and those that can't be grabbed can only settle for the second. As a result, land prices in the entire outer city of Xiangyang skyrocketed.

Cai Mao looked at the large amount of money obtained from selling land every day, and she was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth, and she admired Wei Xuan more and more.

Building a house is inseparable from craftsmen, inseparable from various materials, and after building a house, you need to add furniture and things. As a result, the industry and commerce in Xiangyang City became more and more prosperous, and the market, which was previously worried that no one was occupied, was already overcrowded. The prosperous market, coupled with the strong city defense, is better than the former capital Luoyang.

The inner city of Xiangyang is a different story. Because it is forbidden to enter and exit casually, this place is orderly, like a pure land in the middle of the city. However, in this pure land, Xiangyang Academy and Baigongfang are in full swing, and more than a dozen large granaries are also under construction. After the autumn harvest, taxes from all over the country arrived, and Xiangyang was really solid. Even if you encounter a powerful enemy, it is common to defend it for three or five years.

Seeing the changes in Xiangyang City, Wei Xuan was in a good mood, and praised Jia Xu, Xun Yu, Cai Mao and others who came to greet him, announcing that everyone would receive a double portion, and said: "Tonight, I will hold a banquet alone in the mansion, rejoice with you, and I will not return if I am not drunk!"

Jia Xu said: "Even if the lord does not hold a banquet, his subordinates will also come to the door to disturb him." ”

Wei Xuan wondered, "Why?"

Jia Xu smiled and said: "The subordinates are about to congratulate the lord on his beloved daughter!"
