The so-called chief of staff history is to have the power of long history, but there is no official appointment by the imperial court, which belongs to the nature of staff strategists, and Zhang Xuan pays for it out of his own pocket. Lewen novel w-w.

In the process of arresting Li Shanheng this time, Zhang Xuan was deeply impressed by Wei Yunqi's decisiveness and strategy, and he also knew Wei Yunqi's deeds back then, such a talented person with great courage and strategy, but he was not important, and he was reduced to a small county lieutenant, which is really a pity.

And Zhang Xuan also felt that Pei Ju didn't really attach importance to Wei Yunqi, Cui Junsu could be the supervisor of the imperial history and be in charge of Turkic affairs, while the older Wei Yunqi could only be a county lieutenant, how unfair is this?

Wei Yunqi felt Zhang Xuan's sincerity, and he was very moved in his heart, but this was not a trivial matter, he needed to think about it, he pondered for a moment and said: "I can't reply to the general now, let me think about it for two days." ”

Zhang Xuan got up and said with a smile: "I'll leave in three days, if Duke Wei is interested, you can come to the barracks to find me at any time." ”

"Alright! If I think about it, I will come to the general. ”

Zhang Xuan said goodbye and left, Wei Yunqi kept sending him out of the county office, looking at Zhang Xuan away, his heart was very complicated, he knew that Zhang Xuan was a person who could do great things, and in order to protect his own interests, he did not hesitate to offend important ministers and magnates like Pei Juyu Wenshu Dou Qing.

It can be seen from this proverbial case that the success of his strategy, if he follows him, he may be able to reach the peak of his career in the last twenty years of his life, so why should he care about a small county lieutenant?

Although Wei Yunqi told Zhang Xuan that he needed to think about it for two days, Wei Yunqi made his life decision just after Zhang Xuan left the county government.

．．．．．．

In the evening. Zhang Xuan came to Chongye Fang alone, Chongye Fang is close to Tianjie Avenue, most of the official eunuchs in the square live, the streets are neat and clean, and the trees are shady. Quiet and elegant.

In the northwest corner of Chongye Fang, there is a mansion covering an area of about 20 acres, which is the mansion of Fanyang Lu in Luoyang, not only the Lu family, almost all the major families in the world have houses in the capital, and it is the contact point of the major families in the capital. At the feet of the Son of Heaven, it is also the closest to power.

The Lu Mansion had been empty for a few months, with only a few old family servants in charge of taking care of it, but since the head of the family, Lu Zuo, became the priest of the country, this long-empty mansion has become Lu Zhuo's official residence.

Early tomorrow morning, Zhang Xuan will lead the army to Qi County. Before leaving, he still wanted to visit the Lu family, of course he was not interested in Lu Zhuo, he just wanted to know about Lu Qing's current situation.

Zhang Xuan rode to the gate of Lufu, but saw a gorgeous carriage parked in front of the steps, and the lantern hanging on the wheel of the carriage had the word 'Cui Shi' written on it.

Zhang Xuan turned over and dismounted and walked up the steps, and a porter hurriedly came out and asked, "Is there something wrong with this son?" ”

"In the next Jang Hyun. It's an old acquaintance with your family master, can you inform me about it? Jao Hyun took out a copy of his name card and handed it to the porter.

A name card is similar to today's business card, with information such as name, official position, and so on. It is generally used during door-to-door visits, on the one hand, it is more formal, showing respect for the owner, and on the other hand, it is also to prevent the concierge from making mistakes and neglecting the guests.

The porter took the post, hesitated for a moment and said, "The master has orders." No guests for the time being. ”

"Is it because Cui Zhao is here?" Jang Hyun glanced back at the carriage.

"The head of the Cui family has just arrived, so the master ordered that there be no guests for the time being. But since Childe is an old acquaintance, maybe it will be a little special. I'll go and report for my son, and ask him to wait. ”

The porter walked quickly to the mansion with Zhang Xuan's greeting post, Zhang Xuan paced back and forth on the steps with his hands, he didn't know what he could talk about when he saw Lu Zhuo, maybe he could talk about Lu Qingyuan, maybe it was also a courtesy visit.

What's more, he wanted to see Lu Qing again before leaving.

At this time, Zhang Xuan seemed to hear someone calling him, and when he turned around, he saw a stone beast revealing Ah Yuan's small face behind it.

Jang Hyun stepped forward and asked with a smile, "Why are you here?" ”

Ah Yuan smiled and said, "I already told her that you were coming today." ”

"And what did she say?"

"She didn't say anything, but I could tell she wanted to see you, do you want me to arrange for you to meet?"

"You arranged?"

"Childe has underestimated others, they have already taken care of the Lu family's maids and family, I don't believe you wait and see."

At this moment, there was a sound of hurried footsteps in the house, and I saw Lu Zuo walking out quickly, and said with a smile: "Virtuous nephew, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

Zhang Xuan also hurriedly clenched his fists and smiled: "I'm sorry, I don't know that the head of the family has a distinguished guest, or I'll come back next time." ”

"The virtuous nephew is also a distinguished guest! You're welcome, please come in. ”

Lu Zhuo is very enthusiastic about Zhang Xuan, he received a letter from his father a few days ago, and only then did he know that Zhang Xuan solved the big problem of offending Guo Xuan for the Lu family, which made Lu Zhuo extremely grateful to Zhang Xuan.

Zhang Xuan glanced back, Ah Yuan had already disappeared, he shook his head with a smile, and followed Lu Zhuo into the mansion gate.

"I don't know the location problem of the Lu family's school, has it been solved in the end?" Jang Hyun asked with a low chuckle.

"It was resolved, and in the end, Guo Dudu agreed that the academy did not need to be moved."

Lu Zhuo smiled gratefully in his heart: "Thanks to Zhang Gongzi's suggestion, my father left Cui Li's relationship, Cui Li interceded for the Lu family, and Guo Dudu also understood the Lu family's distress reasonably." ”

Lu Zhuo didn't say what the Lu family's distress was, but Zhang Xuan knew very well that Guo Xuan thought that the Lu family was an important supporter of Luo Yi, so attacking the Lu family was also a blow to Luo Yi, but in fact, the Lu family's support for Luo Yi was not large, or even insignificant.

The key is to let Guo Xuan understand this, it was Zhang Xuan's reminder that made the Lu family find the right direction and finally solve the crisis faced by the Lu family.

The two came to the Guike Hall one after the other, and saw two people sitting on the Guike Hall from a distance, it was Cui Zhao and his son Cui Wenxiang.

Cui Zhao vaguely felt that Zhang Xuan was a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it, but Cui Wenxiang had an unforgettable impression of Zhang Xuan, his face suddenly sank, and he snorted softly.

"Who is this person, and where do you think you've seen it?" Cui Zhao asked in a low voice.

"This person is the Zhang Xuan who was crowned in the Lu Mansion of Zhuo County, has my father forgotten?"

"It turned out to be him!"

Cui Zhao felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. He was about to tell Lu Zhuo about something important, but Lu Zhuo said that a distinguished guest came to the door, confessed and left, but he didn't expect to bring a hairy boy, what kind of distinguished guest is this?

Cui Zhao sneered in his heart. Lu Zhuo obviously didn't want to agree to his request, so he deliberately diverted the topic, and brought this Zhang Xuan in, what else could they talk about.

Cui Zhao came to visit today because of Lu Zhuo, and today the Ministry of Rites just announced a news. The imperial examination, which was originally scheduled to be held on the 20th of next month, was postponed by the Holy Lord until next spring.

This is a good thing for Cui Zhao, his son Cui Wenxiang originally planned to take the imperial examination next fall, but if the imperial examination is postponed this year, then Cui Zhao plans to let his son take the exam tomorrow spring in advance.

However, the annual imperial examination is extremely cruel, and tens of thousands of scholars take the exam. In the end, only dozens of people were admitted, which is equivalent to only one person out of a hundred, and it was really difficult for his son to stand out.

But it's not impossible, the so-called imperial examination has never been fair, and if Cui Wenxiang wants to pass this year's imperial examination, there are many ways, and taking Lu Zhuo's path is one of them. As the priest of the country, Lu Zhuo has a great say in the final admission.

However, Lu Zhuo didn't seem to be too enthusiastic, and he hadn't said anything serious. He led Zhang Xuan into the Guike Hall, generally speaking, Zhang Xuan should go to wait elsewhere first, and wait for Lu Zhuo to send off Cui's father and son, and then come to meet Zhang Xuan, this is the way of hospitality.

But now Lu Zhuo brought Zhang Xuan to the Guike Hall. Apparently hinting to Cui Zhao that he didn't want to hear about the imperial examination.

"Huh! Let me introduce you to both. This is Qingyuan's friend General Zhang, who is young and promising. You've all seen it! ”

Cui Wenxiang was young after all, and his cultivation was not deep enough, so he nodded extremely reluctantly, and turned his head away pretending to tidy up his clothes, unwilling to greet Zhang Xuan.

Cui Zhao's city government was much deeper and more hypocritical, and he said with a smile on his face: "It turned out to be General Zhang, I heard that General Zhang made military achievements in Goguryeo, congratulations!" ”

Zhang Xuan smiled slightly and arched his hand: "The head of the family has won the award, I don't know how Cui Taishou is doing now?" ”

The Cui Taishou referred to by Zhang Xuan is Cui Hongsheng, the former Zhuojun Taishou Zuowuwei general, and also Cui Zhao's uncle, after the Battle of Goguryeo, Cui Hongsheng returned to the Great Sui and was approved by Yang Guang to retire, and he has now returned to the ancestral land of Boling.

Zhang Xuan is actually reminding Cui Zhao that rescuing Cui Hongsheng is also one of his exploits.

Cui Zhao's face suddenly became a little embarrassed, and he reluctantly said after a while: "Uncle Jia was able to come from Goguryeo safely, thanks to General Zhang's vigorous rescue, please General Zhang accept my gift." ”

After speaking, he bowed deeply to Zhang Xuan, and Cui Wenxiang next to him saw that his father had already saluted, and he was helpless, so he had to follow his father to salute Zhang Xuan, but he was scolding Zhang Xuan in his heart.

"The Cui family master doesn't have to be so polite!"

Zhang Xuan smiled and accepted the salute from their father and son, and then turned back to Lu Zhuo and said: "Actually, I don't have anything to do, but I'm about to leave for Qi County, so I rushed to visit Shibo before leaving, since Shibo has guests, then I will leave first." ”

"Might as well be! The head of the Cui family doesn't have anything to do, we are just chatting between old friends, please sit down, I also want to ask some important things about my nephew! ”

Cui Zhao couldn't hold back any longer, Lu Zhuo was obviously driving himself away, he was so angry in his heart that he gave his son a look, stood up and said: "Since Brother Xian and General Zhang have important matters, then I won't bother, come to visit another day, and say goodbye first!" ”

"Huh! I'm really sorry, I'll visit your mansion another day, and I'm snubbing my brother today. ”

Lu Zhuo didn't leave anyone behind, and smiled at Zhang Xuan, "Nephew, please sit down for a while, I'll send a guest." ”

"Shibo can take care of himself!"

Lu Zhuo sent the Cui father and son away with a smile on his face, and Zhang Xuan saw Cui Wenxiang staring back at him viciously from a distance, and he couldn't help laughing.

After experiencing a power struggle in the capital, he no longer pays attention to the threat of a small person like Cui Wenxiang, don't say that Cui Wenxiang, it is his father Cui Zhao who threatens him, what can he do?

At this moment, Zhang Xuan suddenly felt something, and when he turned around, he saw Lu Qing appear in the side door next to him at some point, looking at him faintly, his eyes full of unforgettable thoughts.

They haven't seen each other for a few months, but Jang Hyun feels as if they have been separated for many years.

．．．．．．

Under the light, Lu Qing opened a letter from Zhang Xuan to her, and she slowly unfolded the letterhead, there was no dense small print in the letter, but only a long and short sentence that she had never read Yuefu.

'After the dream, the stairs are locked, and the curtain hangs low when you wake up; When the spring hatred came last year, the falling flowers were independent, and the swifts flew together.

I remember the first time Qing'er saw it, and the two hearts were Luo Yi; The pipa strings say that acacia, when the bright moon was there, and the clouds returned. ’

Lu Qing silently read it over and over again, until every word was engraved into her heart, she slowly stood up, came to the window, and stared at the distant east, her heart seemed to have left Luoyang and followed Zhang Xuan to Shandong. (To be continued) >
