Chapter 406: The Lu Family's Discussion

Zhang Xuan hurriedly came to the outside of Wencheng Palace, it was almost time to summon him, a eunuch on the steps was looking forward to it, and finally saw Zhang Xuan, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and hurriedly ran up, "If the general doesn't come, it will be a big mistake." ”

"Is it time?" Jang Hyun asked.

"The time has passed, but the Holy Lord is urgently summoning a few Xiangguo, and the general is lucky."

"Is something wrong?" Jang Hyun asked sensitively.

"I don't know exactly what happened."

Zhang Xuan nodded, and walked quickly to the front of the steps, just at this time, a distant shout came from the hall: "There is a decree in the saint, General Xuan Zhang Xuan will come in!" ”

"There is a decree in the saint, General Xuan Zhang Xuan will see you!"

Zhang Xuan hurriedly walked quickly to the palace, and in front of the imperial study, a eunuch went in to report for him, and came out in a moment and said: "General Shengshangxuan is inside!" ”

Zhang Xuan tidied up his clothes a little and walked into the imperial study quickly.

The atmosphere in the imperial study was a little depressing and tense, several Xiangguo sat on their seats, in a semicircle, and Yang Guang stood in front of the map by the wall with his hand, looking at the map of the city wall with all his attention.

At this time, Zhang Xuan saw Wei Xuan waving his hand to him, signaling himself not to disturb the contemplation of the saint, Zhang Xuan understood, so he lowered his hand and stood aside.

After a long time, Yang Guangchang sighed, "It's really incompetent!" What a disappointment for me. ”

He turned around and happened to see Zhang Xuan, Zhang Xuan hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, "Weichen see Your Majesty!" ”

Yang Guang nodded, and said to Wei Xuan, the secretary of the Ministry of War: "Wei Aiqing, tell General Zhang about the situation." ”

Wei Xuan stood up and said to Zhang Xuan: "I received news three days ago that Du Fuwei had cut off the Tongji Canal, and a grain fleet from Jiangdu to the north was taken away by the thief army, and there were about 100,000 stone of grain on board. ”

This news really surprised Jang Hyun. Was Duvowe so active?

He asked, "In which area was it taken?" ”

Wei Xuan glanced at the map on the wall and said, "In the Huai River, the incident happened ten days ago, and now the north-south transportation of the Tongji Canal has been completely interrupted. ”

Next to him, Su Wei added: "At present, the army in the Jianghuai area only has 20,000 defenders in Jiangdu, led by the great general Chen Ling, but the Holy Lord has decided to let Chen Ling go south to replace Yujuluo. ”

Speaking of this, Su Wei glanced at Zhang Xuan again. The implication is, 'It's up to you to deal with Duvowe.'" ’

Of course, Zhang Xuan understands why these Xiangguo deliberations brought him in, just to put this burden on himself, but who was the Son of Heaven saying just now that he was incompetent? He figured there should be an army over there.

Wei Xuan seemed to understand Zhang Xuan's thoughts, and said slowly: "At present, the suppression of bandits in the Jianghuai area is in charge of the general Gongsun Shangzhe, who led thousands of troops to the Huai River to recapture the grain boats, but was ambushed halfway and the whole army was wiped out. It's disappointing. ”

Zhang Xuan felt that Yang Guang's expectant gaze was watching him, and he immediately bowed down and said, "Weichen is willing to share his worries for His Majesty!" ”

Yang Guang nodded with satisfaction, he waited for Zhang Xuan's words, and he asked again: "Has General Zhang's army arrived in the capital?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, I just set off from Beihai County, and it may take seven or eight days to arrive in Xingyang County, and then Weichen will rush to Xingyang County to join the army."

At this time, Pei Ju next to him smiled and said, "Your Majesty." General Zhang is preparing for a wedding, and it seems that he will get married in a few days. In fact, it is too late for General Zhang to go to Jianghuai after he gets married. ”

Yang Guang was a little surprised, and asked with a smile: "Whose daughter is General Zhang going to marry?" ”

"Returning to Your Majesty, she is the daughter of the prince of the country, the priest of the wine Lu Mansion."

"Huh! It's a good marriage, congratulations to the general. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Yang Guang pondered for a moment, and then smiled at Zhang Xuan: "Although the case of the Huaihe bandits robbing grain is serious, it is not in a hurry. The general can get married and then set off. ”

"Your Majesty's grace, Weichen is grateful."

"Getting married is a major event in life, let's get busy first!"

Zhang Xuan saluted and slowly retreated, it turned out that the Son of Heaven had come to him. It is to ask him to send troops to Jianghuai as soon as possible.

He had just walked out of the main hall, but he heard someone behind him calling him, "General Zhang, please stay!" ”

Zhang Xuan turned around, but it was Pei Ju, he stepped forward and saluted and smiled: "Why did Pei Xiangguo come out too?" ”

"I happened to be in a bit of a hurry to go to the ministry."

Pei Ju laughed in a low voice: "The general is getting married, congratulations!" ”

Zhang Xuan was not very happy in his heart, he learned from Su Erniang that Pei Ju secretly obstructed his marriage, of course he knew that Pei Ju wanted him to marry the daughter of the Pei family, and after becoming the son-in-law of the Pei family, he would naturally become the general of the Pei family, but he Zhang Xuan was never willing to become a vassal of the Pei family, and he had to be clear about this.

Although he was a little dissatisfied in his heart, his face did not show the slightest, he saluted and smiled: "Thank you Pei Gong, especially the furniture sent by Pei Gong, it is really a charcoal in the snow!" ”

"Huh! Be careful, in fact, if I had known earlier that the general was going to get married and buy a house, I also have a house over there, which is very good, and I can give it to the general. ”

"I received Pei Gong's wishes, in fact, I won't stay in the capital for too long, this house is enough at present, thank you Pei Gong for your concern."

Pei Ju patted Zhang Xuan's arm and said, "Go to Jianghuai this time and bring my second grandson Pei Hong with you!" I want him to hone in the army, let him join the army, it should be good for him. ”

Zhang Xuan really didn't want to agree, but he also knew that since Pei Ju had spoken, he couldn't refuse anymore, so he had to smile reluctantly: "Of course I welcome it, but it's just from the military department."

"I'll arrange it for the military department, so don't worry about it, concentrate on the marriage, and if you need anything, just tell me."

"Thank you Pei Gong, it's basically done, there is no need, just need Pei Gong to attend."

Pei Ju laughed, "General Zhang's wedding, of course I have to attend!" ”

With the passage of time, the wedding day is getting closer and closer, and the Lu family is also busy, after all, it is a famous family in the world, and although the marriage of a concubine is not a family event, it is also a matter worth paying attention to.

Especially when Old Man Lu heard that his granddaughter was going to marry Zhang Xuan, he rushed to the capital from Zhuo County despite his old age, and in addition, more than a dozen Lu clansmen also came to the capital to help.

In the inner hall, the old family owner Lu Shen was discussing some details of the marriage with his family, but what he didn't expect was that Zhang Xuan had no family, which surprised him very much.

"Da Lang, I didn't say you, since Zhang Gongzi has uncles and aunts alive, you should find a way to find them, how can there be a reason that no one in the man's family attended the wedding?"

The old man was very dissatisfied with his eldest son, and he didn't even think about the most basic human feelings, since the Lu family and the Zhang family were married, he should give Zhang Xuan enough face, he thought that his son disliked the low status of the man's family and refused to sit at the same table with them.

Lu Zuo was so frightened that he hurriedly stood up and explained: "Father, it's not that the child doesn't go to his family, it's that he doesn't know the whereabouts of his uncle and aunt, where can the child go to find it?" ”

"Humph!"

Lu Shen snorted, and said in an accentuated tone: "Whether you can find it is one thing, whether you can find it is another thing, this is the least attitude problem, you are a dignified national prince priest wine, do you want me to teach you this kind of small thing?" ”

Lu Zuo was reprimanded by his father in public, and he didn't dare to speak up, so he had to bear it silently.

At this time, Mrs. Lu, who was sitting on the side, saw that her husband was embarrassed, so she smiled and relieved her husband and said: "Father, I heard that Zhang Xuan seems to be a member of the Zhang clan in Hanoi, why don't we confirm it, if he is really a member of the Zhang clan in Hanoi, then we will deal with the Zhang clan in Hanoi the same." ”

Lu Shen was slightly stunned, "He is a member of the Zhang clan in Hanoi?" ”

He said he had studied at Zhang's family.

Sitting on the other side, Lu Chu smiled and said: "Second uncle, in fact, it doesn't matter if you are the descendant of the Zhang family in Hanoi, I think since you are in Hanoi County, there must be a little relationship, not to mention that he himself admitted that he studied in the Zhang family, I think it is very likely to be a clansman, but it may be a distant clan, but even if it is a distant clan, it is better than nothing, what does the second uncle think?" ”

Lu Shen pondered silently, although the Zhang family of Hanoi County is also a county wang, it is only a medium-sized family, far from being comparable to the Fan Yang Lu family, to be honest, with the Hanoi Zhang family, he feels a little embarrassed, it is better to have no family, but he feels a little unreasonable, it will seem that the Lu family is arrogant and rude, Zhang Xuan's closest relatives can be fine, but this kind of distant family .....

After pondering for a long time, Lu Shen glanced at his eldest son, Lu Zuo, and was asking his opinion.

Lu Zhuo understood what his father meant, and said slowly: "I will get married the day after tomorrow, I'm afraid it's too late." ”

Lu Chu smiled slightly, "Actually, you don't need to go to Hanoi County, the number two person of the Zhang family is in the capital, has my brother forgotten?" ”

"You mean Libu Langzhong Zhang Li?"

Lu Chu nodded, "That's him, he is the younger brother of the Zhang family in Hanoi, and he is also the highest official in the Zhang family in Hanoi, and he has a very high status in the Zhang family, and my brother can visit him when he has time." ”

Lu Zhuo didn't dare to make his own decisions, and looked at his father again, "What does my father mean?" ”

Lu Shen thought about it and nodded, "You can visit!" ”

"Yes! The child will go tonight. ”

At this moment, the housekeeper ran in in a panic, bowed down and said, "Master, someone is in the palace!" (To be continued.) )
