[Wait a while, there will be a change, ask for a red ticket, collect]

The tea is fragrant, and the pipa is ringing.

In the post house of Jingzhao Mansion in Chang'an, Han Jiang sat cross-legged on a soft couch made of jujube wood, closed his eyes, and beat to the sound of the pipa. A cyan robe was worn loosely on his body, and he did not wear a crown on his head, only a wooden hairpin was inserted. Han Jiang, who has a long beard, now looks like just a leisurely old scholar.

The Han family has been hairpins for generations, and Han Jiang, who was born in the Lingshou Han family, is a child of the Han family who will never lose to the Xiangzhou Han family. Since childhood, he has been learning from his family and inheriting the teachings of his father and brother, and the more impetuous, the more he will show the bearing of a scholar. Even if he had just had an argument with Sima Guang, who knew the Yongxing Army, the Yongxing Army was the commander of Jingzhao Mansion, his face did not show the slightest displeasure.

Han Jiang is respected as a prime minister, and he is also the prime minister of Zhaowenguan University, of course, it was not him who went to see Sima Guang, but Sima Guang came to visit him. So Han Jiang lived in the post house, not the Yin Hotel in the mansion.

It's just that Sima Guang and Han Jiang are both leaders of the same generation of officials, Han Jiang is just one step ahead, in terms of fame and qualifications, Sima Guang is by no means under Han Jiang. Therefore, Sima Guang came to visit Han Jiang, just to exhaust the superficial courtesy, and he refused all of Han Jiang's military criticism on the Yongxing Military Road. Don't make trouble, this is Sima Guang's political opinion. Whether it was renovating the city defense, or using troops across mountains and rivers, or promoting the art of war, he was opposed to it and did not cooperate with Han Jiang at all.

Han Jiang was really angry in his heart, during this time, Sima Guang did not make a lot of nonsense in Shaanxi's military affairs, if it weren't for the road leading to Qingzhou in Dashun City was blocked by heavy snow, why did he bother to come to Jingzhao Mansion to meet Sima Twelve.

Han Jiang was going to inspect Huanqing Road, but a blizzard destroyed the traffic in the mountainous areas of northern Shaanxi, so he had to make a detour to Chang'an. Because they had already detoured hundreds of miles to the south, and then went north to Gyeongju, it was too late to rush back to Yeonju within the scheduled time. So Han Jiang is now waiting, waiting for the main generals of Huanqing Road who received the notice to come to Chang'an.

"Xianggong, Wang Wenliang has arrived." Han Jiang's old servant came in to report.

Han Jiang ignored it, just waited for a song to play, and the tail note with a trembling sound passed around the beam, gradually dissipating, he opened his eyes, waved off the entourage who played the pipa, and asked his subordinates to pass a message to Wang Wenliang: "Let him come in." ”

Wang Wenliang walked in with a broken step, completely free of arrogance in the roadside inn, deferential with a little restraint, when kneeling on the ground and saluting, he was like a loyal dog loyal to his master.

"Why are you so late?"

"It happened to be snowing heavily on the road. Ma Weiyi's house also collapsed, and he could only live in an inn. Unexpectedly, I happened to meet Han Gang from Qinzhou, and Wu Kui from Guangrui Army......"

In front of Han Jiang, Wang Wenliang did not cower and dare not say a word like ordinary officials, but took the trouble to say everything. He did not hide the contradictions between himself and Wu Kui, as well as the dispute in the inn, but hid his arrogant words, and it cleverly turned into the same chaos as the competition for horses in the past. Wang Wenliang left an impression on Han Jiang with preconceived ideas, and if he said anything unfavorable to him in the future, it could also be said to be a rumor spread by Wu Kui.

Wang Wenliang said it lightly as a trip gossip, and Han Jiang didn't think much about it, it was just a trivial matter. "Han Gang and Wu Kui didn't come with you?"

The villain didn't dare to delay, just waited for the snow to subside slightly, and rushed to Jingzhao Mansion. As for Wu Kui and Han Gang's itinerary, the villain doesn't know what to do. ”

Han Jiang nodded with satisfaction, this is the reason why he values Wang Wenliang, "If everyone is as hard as you do, why worry about the restlessness in Northern Xinjiang?" ”

"The villain just doesn't dare to be valued by the public, and he can't afford to be praised by the public."

"Han Gang...... can be recommended by the five [seeds] and Zhao Gongcai [Zhao Yu], and there is no shortage of talent. Recuperation with the army, sand table military chess, although these are small skills, but they are not without benefit to the army, and it is no wonder that the Son of Heaven also values him. ”

It's a pity that it's not a Jinshi...... If it is not out of the right way, this generation can be used, but it cannot be reused. The second half of the sentence Han Jiang stayed in his heart and did not say it. But no matter what, for Han Gang's arrival—even if he didn't report to the Xuanfu Division, but just rushed to the capital through Chang'an—Han Jiang was also willing to deign to meet and see what kind of character Han Yukun, who had recently become famous.

……………………

On the eighty-mile road from Xingping County to Chang'an City, Han Gang and his entourage walked for two days. He and Wu Kui led the team to hurry up and failed to catch up with Wang Wenliang, but they still arrived at Chang'an Jingzhao Mansion in the afternoon of the second day when they were back on the road.

After the blizzard, Chang'an City has an extraordinary noise.

Just like after the snow in Qinzhou, the box army will be organized to come out to shovel the snow, when Han Gang and his party enter the city from the west gate. Along the way, I saw many soldiers carrying wooden shovels and clearing the snow in the streets and alleys. On the main street, which is more than forty steps wide, the thick snow has piled up on the side of the road. Looking through the cross-street and alleyway, a road has been shoveled out for people to walk. Just the day after the snow stopped, the traffic in Chang'an City had been restored, and at least it could be seen that Sima Guang was not doing badly.

The last time Han Gang came to Jingzhao Mansion was during this year's Shangyuan Festival. At that time, he happened to meet the brothers Chong Jianzhong and Chong Pu in the post house, as well as their uncle Chong Xuan, chatting with the world and being very happy. It's a pity that now Chong Jian died in unjust prison because of Li Fugui, and the brothers Chong Jianzhong and Chong Pu are now following Chong Ge in Suide, and I don't know how many years it will be when they see each other again.

Yesterday, when Han Gang chatted with Wu Kui, he mentioned the unjust prison created by Li Fugui, and the drunken Guangrui Army Du Yuhou almost overturned the table. In order to cover up his mistake in command, Li Fugui beheaded the general and imprisoned Chong Yong, causing him to die of illness in prison, which was known to everyone in Kansai officialdom. However, there were less than three people, and more than a dozen military academies without official status also accompanied them to the court, but no one mentioned this stubble.

Compared with the three generals who were high above and transferred from other places, more than a dozen officers who had been up and down in the Huanqing Army for many years and had countless relatives and friends were innocently killed, which was a painful thing that made Wu Kui and even the entire Huanqing Army resentful.

And now that Han Jiang believes in Wang Wenliang and favors the Tibetan people, there is no one in the Guangrui army who does not hate. This time, Han Jiang wanted to inspect Zhubian Junzhou, but Huanqing Road had recently been closed by heavy snow, and Dashun City on the northern route could not get through, so he could only order the generals of Huanqing to meet in Jingzhao Mansion. Wang Wenliang received the news from Gyeongju and hurriedly went south, and Wu Kui came back from a hard patrol, and hurried to Jingzhao Mansion when he saw the order, which is why the two of them met in a small inn in Xingping County.

met Wang Wenliang unexpectedly, Wu Kui only felt that he was stained with bad luck: "Wang Wenliang is the most vicious, and he is used to fighting for merit." He had a general called Zhao Yuqing, and the two of them made an appointment to patrol the border in Jinming's hometown, but Wang Wenliang walked halfway and heard that there was an enemy in front of him, so he retreated. When Zhao Yuqing arrived at Jinmingzhai, he found that no one was coming, so he also retreated. Wang Wenliang was guilty of this incident, but Wang Wenliang falsely claimed that Zhao Yuqing would not meet the deadline, so that he is still in prison. ”

Han Gang sneered secretly, this Wang Wenliang is also capable, blinding Han Jiang to the point of listening and believing, such a stupid coach is really difficult to put people at ease.

Han Gang and Wu Kui chatted and walked to the post house, but when they arrived at the box where the post house was located, the two stopped at once, and the whole team also stopped together.

Around the Jingzhao Mansion Post House, there is now a circle of guards, not to mention as many as two or three hundred people. In front of the gate stood two men as tall as bears, a white battle axe with a long handle, but the axe was half as large as an ordinary battle axe.

"Yue!"

Han Gang immediately understood what was going on. Jieyue - Fu Jie, axe Yue - is a symbol of the courtier's descendants of the heavenly patrol hunting ceremonial vessels, so in the past there was a fake Jieyue name, non-important ministers do not with - here "fake" is the meaning of "borrow". In Shaanxi, there is only Han Jiang who has been given the festival. To open Shaanxi with the respect of the prime minister, of course, it is necessary to give the festival Yue and Zhang Jingqi.

The current titular prime minister, Han Jiang, is now in the post house.

Wu Kui and Han Gang took the lead, and after a group of people dismounted, they slowly approached the post house. An officer came out of the crowd guarding the door, and his belly looked like a general: "At this time, the prime minister is in charge, and the officials in the past are not allowed to enter." ”

"I am Wu Kui, the Marquis of Yu Yu, the capital of the Guangrui Army of Suining, and I was ordered to come here to meet the Prime Minister." Wu Kui took out an official document from his arms and handed it to the officer guarding the door.

The officer was about to open the official document, and a middle-aged civil official in his thirties suddenly walked out in a hurry, and when he turned around, he caught a glimpse of Wu Kui.

"Wu Kui, why is it only here now?!" The middle-aged civil official didn't wait for Wu Kui to apologize, "Why don't you hurry up and go in to meet Han Xianggong?" ”

"You Jun sentenced, the next official ......"

"Don't be sluggish, why don't you hurry up and let me in." The middle-aged civil official unceremoniously instructed Wu Kui, "Someone has already lived in the post house for five days, and I want people to wait for you for a long time." ”

Han Gang watched from the side for a long time, first feeling familiar, and after a while, he finally remembered the identity of a middle-aged civil official, "But Uncle You Jing?" He suddenly exclaimed.

“…… Under is You Shixiong. The middle-aged civil official looked at Han Gang suspiciously, although the tall young man in front of him came with Wu Kui, but he didn't look like a martial artist. Unable to remember where he had met him for a while, the middle-aged civil official finally gave up his memories and asked in a low voice, "Brother Tai is ......?"

Han Gang smiled, stepped forward, and bowed: "Junior brother Han Gang, meet Uncle Jing." ”

You Shixiong's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed in surprise: "You are Han Yukun!?" ”

Han Gang nodded lightly and greeted You Shixiong again. Wu Kui watched from the side and was amazed, and secretly said that Han Gang was indeed a disciple of Hengqu, making friends all over the world, and he could meet acquaintances anywhere.
