Chapter 34: All the way north
The Tai Lieutenant is the head of the Three Princes, so it is not appropriate to move lightly, so it is naturally impossible to personally run to Zhending to cheer for the Northern Expeditionary Army.
Of course, the deep-seated reason is because Liu Kuan himself is surnamed Liu, and Emperor Ling is afraid that he will be like a dragon like the sea, so he took over the Northern Expeditionary Army, and his reputation is getting worse, and it is not impossible to replace him when the time comes.
No matter what the reason is, the killing of Hu Ling has been known to the whole country, and the imperial court has also decided to send troops, so naturally a weighty person will represent the military and come to march for the team.
Captain Xu Fang, of course, became the best candidate and left Luoyang with Jian Shuo's team.
Although in the eyes of the common people, the emperor is practiced for Lord Weiwei, there may be only a few people who understand that the eunuch dragged by Emperor Ling, Jian Shuo, who is reluctant to part, is the person he really can't let go.
Xu Fang was very pleased that Jian Shuo was not as arrogant as an ordinary eunuch, but was humble everywhere.
It doesn't matter if he is true or false, it doesn't matter, life in the world, whether he is an official in the court or farming in the field, isn't it just to save face?
If you give me face, I myself will not give you face.
Therefore, when Jian Shuo proposed to leave the team and go alone, Xu Fang didn't want to agree.
If it weren't for the rank of Captain on his head, he would have wanted to travel in micro-service and go straight to Zhending.
The honor guard sent by the emperor, after Jian Shuo left, suddenly increased in speed, often crossing the city non-stop, resting at the post station, making some families who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to stuff people dumbfounded.
Compared with the Central Plains, Wu County, where he was born, is relatively backward, Xu Ji has been living in Luoyang all these years, and feels that the capital is a well-deserved metropolis.
But when it came to Zhending, he found that maybe the area and population of the city were compared with that of Luoyang. is still a little lacking, and the development of commerce has long surpassed that of Luoyang.
As the capital, there is a curfew at night, but there is no here, but after the end of the day, go out of the city. You must be innocent, and you need to pay a certain fee, and most people will not choose to go out at night.
And during the day, there is no charge at the city gate, and he also saw two guards at the city gate, and when he saw an old man's car overturned, he took the initiative to help, and called the people around him to go up to help.
It wasn't until this moment that Xu Yan understood. The truth of what others and themselves describe will never be explained.
It's not because of wealth here, there are more families with a net worth of tens of thousands in Luoyang.
It is because of the love for life, the yearning for the future, and the satisfaction of the present revealed in their eyes, which the ordinary people of Ruoyang have never had.
He converged Jian Shuo, and rushed to Zhao's house with a heavy heart, the houses that were connected together. It shows what kind of family the Zhao family is, which occupies almost half of the sight.
Even the soldiers of Zhending County. They all use the Zhao family's venue for training, will there be any intention of rebellion?
Fortunately, the Zhao family had to send troops to the north at this time, and it is estimated that the emperor's meticulous work has already explored the details of the Zhao family, and maybe he wants to take the opportunity to reduce their strength.
"Wujun Xu Fang has seen Zhao Hou!" His posture is very low, and he is not much of an official in Luoyang. It's someone's territory.
"Xiaguan Jian Shuo has seen Lord Captain." Naturally, this eunuch is not a domineering person, and he pays homage with great bows.
"Please, two of you!" Zhao Meng was not polite or respectful to the two, he was dressed all over his body and led everyone to the school field.
shocking, whether it is Jian Shuo or Xu Fang. That's all they feel in their hearts.
The forbidden army is the only army near the capital, and whether it is the supply of weapons or food, it must be much more sufficient than the county soldiers.
Jian Shuo, who personally led the forbidden army, was deeply touched, and these county soldiers in front of him may still have a little gap with the forbidden army in terms of height, but their combat effectiveness is simply incomparable.
Those eyes who ignore everything, don't look at the honor guard given by the emperor at all, and stand solemnly on the school field one by one, not moving at all, and the atmosphere of killing makes the timid people scared to pee.
"Brothers, the emperor sent us a prison army, and even let the guard captain Xu Ji come to the grand march." Zhao Meng followed behind the two and got on the stage.
"Victory!" I don't know which soldier started it, and the inspection on the school field boiled.
"Brothers!" Zhao Meng's hands pressed down, and he was suddenly silent: "First of all, please ask Lord Wei Xu to give a lecture." ”
No matter at that time, Chinese officialdom liked to engage in some red tape, and the person who spoke spoke for a long time, and the people below were drowsy and didn't know what to say.
Fortunately, whether it is Jian Shuo or Xu Huan, they can recognize their position, and their words are short but graceful, which has won Zhao Meng's favor, and he is very tired of those long speeches.
"Zhao Hou, why don't you see your son-in-law Zhao Zilong?" Xu Ji looked left and right, except for some people who were like soldiers, he couldn't see the shadow of the Zhao family at all.
"This kid," Zhao Meng sighed: "I have already set off with people as pioneers, and I have already arrived at the boundary of Youzhou at this moment." ”
Zhao Yun was very helpless, he took his eldest brother Xi Zhicai away, he must have wanted this military genius to enter the world's attention in advance.
I knew that Guo Jia, a little brat, didn't know what ecstasy soup he poured into Zhao Nianzhen, so he secretly followed the team.
By the time they found out, the team had already entered Youzhou, and they had no choice but to let it go.
"Zhao Hu, you've been here before," Zhao Yun beckoned: "What county is next?" ”
Having lived on this land for two lifetimes, it's funny to say that he was not familiar with the terrain at all.
Time has changed, the vicissitudes of the sea, and the Jizhong Plain after 2,000 years is very different from today.
Not to mention other places, it is my hometown, and then I can't see mountains above 500 meters above sea level, and now they abound.
"Back to the third prince, I just passed through Zhongshan Kingdom, and in front of me is Zhuo County." Zhao Hu was respectful.
He couldn't help but feel a trace of sadness in his heart, why did he follow the eldest prince to Luoyang in the first place?
At that time, I and others thought that they would follow the future head of the family in the future and would inevitably soar.
In a blink of an eye, the eldest prince went to Qingzhou to be a thorn, and he didn't wait for anyone to wait for the family at all. It is also said that with the big tree of the Yuan family, his life trajectory in the future may be more inclined to the civil service system.
Of course, he also believes that the head of his family will not be so short-sighted and use war to consume the traces of the eldest prince.
After all, whether it is the Dragon Team, the Tiger Team or the Leopard Team, they are all part of the Zhao family, and to a greater extent, it is to let the third prince and himself and others often come into contact with each other, so that they can be good conductors in the future.
Thinking about it like this, he was comfortable, the third prince himself was a kind person, and it was much better to follow him than to be by the side of the eldest prince.
As for the head of the house, that's something that the top can decide.
"Sixteen, you send someone to contact Zhang Fei to see when he will return to the team!" Zhao Yun instructed: "Big brother, brother-in-law, why don't you gallop all the way to the north?" ”
As he spoke, he was already riding the clouds and running forward. (To be continued.) )
