Returning from Langya County, Zhang Xuan did not have time to return to Yidu County, so he went directly to Linzi County, and when he solved the crisis caused by Wang Shichong's southern invasion, nearly ten days had passed.

On this morning, Zhang Xuan led 500 cavalry and 1,000 soldiers to escort more than 100 mule carts back to Yidu County, the mule carts were full of white-haired old people, there were more than 700 people, most of them finally chose to stay in Yidu County, refused to return to Qi County, considering that Yidu County originally had several Yizhuang, Zhang Xuan decided to place these old people in Yidu County, and the government would support them.

When the team arrived in Yidu County, Zhang Xuan asked Wei Chigong to lead the soldiers to cooperate with the government to settle these old people, and he returned to the county seat first.

Compared with before the expedition to Langya County, there is basically no change in Yidu County, but there are many more people who have migrated from Qi County in the streets and alleys, ox carts and mule carts are crowded with the county seat, and many houses that were originally empty due to the return of people to their hometowns are full of people, and the city that has just been loosened is crowded again.

Zhang Xuan had just arrived at the county office, and before he had time to dismount, Fang Xuanling rushed out of the county office and whispered a few words to Zhang Xuan, Zhang Xuan was stunned and hurriedly asked, "How long has he been here?" ”

"I arrived yesterday, and I accompanied him to the official school for a walk, and today he said that he had a little private matter."

The visitor who surprised Zhang Xuan was naturally Lu Zhuo, as the Guozi priest in charge of education affairs in the Great Sui Dynasty, he had already completed the sacrifice to the Confucius Temple in Qufu, and turned to the north, by the way, to 'inspect' Beihai County.

Of course, Zhang Xuan also knows what Lu Zhuo's private affairs are? It's just that he didn't expect Lu Zhuo to come so quickly, but in any case, he can't escape anymore, and can only face the future Lord Taishan.

Zhang Xuan did not go to Lu Qing first, but transferred to the official school, and Lu Zhuo lived in the official school for the time being.

The official school is not far from the county government. Originally, it had been suspended for three years due to the chaos of the current situation, but thanks to Wei Yunqi's efforts, the government school resumed operation.

At present, there are more than 100 students from Beihai County studying in the official school, Zhang Xuan came to the gate of the official school guest house, but unexpectedly heard Lu Qing's voice from inside, and he was very emotional. It seems that he is arguing with his father.

Zhang Xuan hesitated, stopped, and listened intently to the quarrel coming from the courtyard.

"My daughter will never go back with her father, and I would rather die than marry the Cui family!"

"I didn't say that I wanted to marry you to the Cui family, in fact, the Cui family has canceled the marriage proposal, you left home and ran away from marriage, do you think the Cui family can accept it? My father just didn't worry about your safety, so I came all the way to hope that you could go home with me. ”

Lu Qing's tone was excited. But Lu Zhuo has always been gentle and did not get angry with his daughter, which surprised Zhang Xuan.

Zhang Xuan knocked on the courtyard door, the door was not closed, leaving a gap, he directly pushed the door and walked into the courtyard.

In the courtyard, the father and daughter each stood under a tree, two feet apart. It was as if an invisible object separated them.

Zhang Xuan's entry surprised the father and daughter at the same time, and Lu Qing stepped forward excitedly and said, "Brother Zhang." When did you get back? ”

"I just arrived."

Zhang Xuan smiled and said to her, "Let me talk to my uncle!" ”

Lu Qing nodded silently, glanced back at his father again, turned around and walked out of the courtyard.

There were only two people left in the courtyard, Zhang Xuan and Lu Zhuo, Lu Zhuo glanced at Zhang Xuan with complicated eyes, nodded and said, "Let's go into the house and talk!" ”

The two walked into the lobby and sat down. Lu Zhuo poured a cup of tea for Zhang Xuan, "I came to the Confucian Temple to worship this time, passing by Beihai County, but the virtuous nephew should know my intention." ”

Zhang Xuan said apologetically: "Ling's love, the younger generation is really sorry!" ”

"I'm also responsible for this. I didn't take a good look at my daughter, and besides, I want to thank you for taking care of Qing'er during this time. ”

Lu Zhuo originally came in anger, but what he saw and heard along the way made him gradually change his attitude towards Zhang Xuan, and more importantly, his daughter was determined and resolutely refused to go back with him, if he wanted to successfully bring his daughter back, he could only rely on Zhang Xuan to persuade him, so Lu Zhuo finally decided to face the reality and give up preparing to attack Zhang Xuan.

Lu Zhuo's attitude was a bit unexpected by Zhang Xuan, he was ready to face Lu Zhuo's interrogation, but Lu Zhuo didn't mean to ask at all, which made Zhang Xuan secretly relieved.

"Take care of Miss Lu, this is the responsibility of the younger generation, and the uncle doesn't have to be polite."

Immediately the two of them were silent, no one knew how to speak, Lu Zhuo pondered for a long time, and said: "This time I plan to take Qing'er back to the capital, but she refuses to go back with me, I hope that the virtuous nephew can persuade her." ”

"Ling Ai refuses to go back, I'm afraid it's because of the Cui family, she ran away from home because she didn't want to marry the Cui family, I hope my uncle can understand this."

Lu Zhuo smiled bitterly, "Even if I go to ask the Cui family, the Cui family will not accept this marriage, the proposal has been canceled, the Cui family is no longer a problem, I explained to her repeatedly, but she still refused to go back with me, Qing'er's temper is simply more stubborn than a cow." ”

"Then why does Uncle Ling Ai refuse to go back?"

Lu Zhuo glanced at Zhang Xuan meaningfully, and the implication was to say, "Isn't that because of you?" ’

But Lu Zhuo didn't break it in person, but one thing is certain, he has no choice in whether to choose Zhang Xuan as his son-in-law, his daughter has run away with Zhang Xuan, although it is not known to the world, but everyone who should know knows it, who else can his daughter marry? Except for marrying Jang Hyun, he doesn't have any umbrella that can cover the shame of the family at all.

But even if you want to marry Jao Hyun, you must do it according to the rules, and you can't just do it hastily.

Lu Zhuo pondered for a moment and then asked, "Does General Zhang have any elders in Beihai County?" ”

Zhang Xuan understood what Lu Zhuo meant, and said with a smile: "Although I don't have any elders, my uncle has something to talk about with Wei Changshi." ”

"Wei Yunqi? Hehe! I haven't seen him for almost fifteen years, and I don't know how he's doing now, but I really want to meet this old man. ”

An hour later, Lu Zhuo met Wei Yunqi, Wei Yunqi was also from a famous family, fifteen years ago when he was ordered to go to Liaodong, he had lived in Zhuo County for a few months, and Lu Zhuo had a little friendship.

Lu Zhuo was bored in the official school, so he simply walked up to the city wall with Wei Yunqi, and the two walked and chatted on the city wall, blowing a warm spring breeze, and they were also very interested.

"Back then, we were walking on the city wall of Zhuo County, Brother Wei Xian was in his prime, and he was full of spirit, fifteen years have passed in a blink of an eye, and we are all old." Lu Zhuo said with emotion.

Wei Yunqi leaned on the city wall, stared at the sky in the distance, and said with a deep gaze: "Although I am nearly fifty years old, I do not accept old age, the years will only make the wine more mellow, isn't it the same for Brother Lu?" Brother Lu was also appointed as the priest of the country last year, which is actually the beginning of our career. ”

Lu Ju didn't understand the deep meaning of Wei Yunqi's words, he Lu Ju was named the prince of the country and the sacrificial wine, and his career had just begun, and Wei Yunqi even resigned from the post of county lieutenant, although he served as Zhang Xuan's long history, but in fact he was just a staff member, and the court did not appoint him, it can be said that he is just a white body, nearly fifty years old, will the court still use him? Who is he to say that?

Lu Zhuo looked at Wei Yunqi suspiciously.

Wei Yunqi seemed to understand the doubts in Lu Zhuo's eyes, and he smiled faintly: "Brother Lu came to Beihai County, do you feel that there is any difference between this place and other places?" ”

"It's true that some places are different from others!"

Lu Zhuo also admits the difference of Beihai County, "The security here is very good, it can be said that the road is not left behind, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, it seems that a large number of people are migrating to Beihai County in the past two days, I heard that it is to escape the war, and I have a general feeling that Beihai County is like a prosperous era." ”

"This is Zhang Xuan's excellence, he is not only strong in martial arts, but also far-sighted and far-sighted, if Brother Lu thinks he is a martial artist and despises him, or even gives up on him, one day Brother Lu will regret it,"

Wei Yunqi's words deeply touched Lu Zhuo, and after a while, Lu Zhuo smiled helplessly and said, "Brother Wei Xian should know why I came to Beihai County!" ”

"I know, what is Brother Lu going to do?"

"What else can I do now?"

Lu Zhuo sighed, "I can agree to their marriage, but I have a few conditions, I hope that the virtuous brother can tell Zhang Xuan." ”

"Brother Lu, please speak!"

Lu Zhuo smiled helplessly and said: "Actually, I don't have any requirements, I just hope that Zhang Xuan can marry my daughter, and I hope that Brother Xian will be a witness for them, in addition, in order to prove the formality of the marriage, I hope he can go to the court and ask the Holy Lord to canonize the decree, Brother Wei Xian should be able to understand my feelings." ”

Wei Yunqi is also from a family, of course he understands Lu Zuo's feelings, Lu Zuo is afraid of being ridiculed, especially as the head of the Lu family, the pressure is even greater, Wei Yunqi smiled and said: "I believe that the people of the entire Yidu County are willing to be General Zhang's witnesses." ”

"When does Brother Lu plan to marry them?" Wei Yunqi asked with a smile again.

Lu Zuo was a little hesitant in his heart, in fact, according to his thoughts, it was best to come to Beihai County this time and handle the marriage together, so as not to cause gossip.

But if this matter is not discussed with his wife, the marriage is hastily promoted, one is disrespectful to his wife, and the other is too shabby, which is not in line with the Lu family's family background and status.

After hesitating for a long time, Lu Zhuo said slowly: "I can agree to this marriage, but I want to get married in the capital, and there is a problem involved here, I want to bring my daughter back first, and I need General Zhang to persuade the little girl." ”

Wei Yunqi smiled slightly, "If this marriage can be decided, I will talk to General Zhang, I think it shouldn't be a big problem." ”
