Chapter 832: Recruiting a son-in-law is like recruiting soldiers

Li Xianhui was full of interest, and did not pay attention to the change in the expression of the little sister, and only said: "That Jia Lushuai was killed, and he was sent by the martial arts, saying that it was because the emperor only asked him to take care of us, but he falsely passed on the holy decree and was disrespectful to my Luling family, so he was put to death." Hmph, it's not because he didn't do well and let his father escape......"

Li Bao'er muttered to herself, "Dead? Killed by someone from the samurai family? ”

When Li Xianhui saw her face, she said, "Little sister, don't be sad. Although Jia Xing is not bad to you, how cruel is he to our family? Last winter, he deliberately used the excuse that there was a shortage of firewood and grass, and he needed to take it from our house, so he moved away all the firewood and grass from our house. Such bad people die and die, what is the pity. ”

Li Bao'er suddenly became a little nervous, grabbed Li Xianhui's hand, and asked, "Sister, is he really dead?" ”

Li Xianhui said: "Of course it's true, Daddy was able to escape, not only did he die, but those teams were also killed by the people sent by the martial arts, and their heads were full of bamboo poles, so they weren't scary." ”

Li Bao'er suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, revealing a heartfelt joy, as if she had suddenly let go of something.

She took Li Xianhui's hand and said with a bright face: "Of course people are not sad, that Jia Xing is worse to our family than a jailer to prisoners, how can I be sad?" At the beginning, I wanted to please me, but also for our family to have a better life, forget it, don't talk about him, where are the brothers and sisters, and after parting for so long, I wonder if I miss everyone, you can take me to see it. ”

Concubine Wei arrived in the capital, accompanied by her husband, and went to visit her mother-in-law tremblingly.

Wu Zetian and his son's relationship is extremely indifferent, and naturally he doesn't have a good impression of this daughter-in-law. Even if there is a gag in between, it can't reconcile this cold atmosphere. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law met and chatted casually about a few official words that were not salty or light, and Wu Zetian sent them away under the pretext that they were not feeling well.

Concubine Wei had great expectations for this return to Beijing, but seeing Wu Zetian's indifference, she couldn't help but panic again.

She was born in a large family, and when she was the crown princess and queen, she had lived in the palace for a long time. Naturally, she will not be like her children who have grown up in the mountains since childhood, and they will make a fuss when they see the weather of the capital and the solemnity of the palace.

As for the palace room where their husband and wife were temporarily housed, Concubine Wei didn't even look at it, and went back to the room. She dismissed the eunuch sent by Fu Qingqing to wait, and said to Li Xian: "Although the husband has returned to Beijing. But the queen mother was still very cold. Not to mention the samurai side. If we want to gain a foothold, if we want to gain a firm foothold, it seems that we must follow the previous plan and get closer to the samurai. During the time that the husband was in Beijing, did he have any contact with the samurai? ”

Li Xiandao: "On the day I first arrived in the capital and the next day, I met a few people from the martial family. There's been little contact since. ”

Concubine Wei's face sank, and Li Xian hurriedly explained: "I see that Hachiro is now closed and follows the rules very well, I think he still understands the situation in Beijing." We can't go wrong by learning from Hachiro. ”

Concubine Wei frowned, and said unhappily: "Husband, you are very wrong, if you make friends with the minister now, of course the queen mother will not be pleased." However, if you are willing to walk around with the martial arts family more, you must be worthy of the queen mother's heart. ”

Li Xian smiled bitterly: "The lady doesn't know, along the way, the assassins of the martial arts family are endless, I don't know how many disasters my husband has suffered, and I have survived several times in a few near deaths, this is all the Wu family's troublemakers, where does the husband dare to contact them?" I'm afraid that if one is not careful, he will be harmed by them.

You see, this is an invitation sent by King Liang, originally said that he was going to invite me to the palace to attend the banquet, but later because of Di Renjie's death, the queen mother left the dynasty for three days, and the whole country mourned. I'm thinking about how to say no. ”

Li Xian said, and took out King Liang's invitation card to show Concubine Wei.

Concubine Wei said categorically: "Go!" Gotta go! This is an opportunity to ease relations with the martial family, but you can't go, the martial family's mind is really difficult to figure out now, if you really have something good, then our family will be finished. Didn't the queen mother let you go back to Beijing to recuperate? You use this as an excuse to refuse to attend, and let your son go for you, so that there is no loss of etiquette and no danger. ”

Li Xian was overjoyed and said: "The lady's clever plan, for the husband Zhengjue the six gods have no owner, or the lady is here, so she can help the husband make up his mind." ”

Concubine Wei sighed: "But this is not a long-term solution after all." ”

Li Xian hesitated: "What can I do? ”

Concubine Wei said: "On the way back to Beijing, the concubine has thought carefully, and there is a good way to change our situation now." ”

Li Xianxi said: "Lady say quickly, the idea that the lady thinks of must be haode!" ”

Concubine Wei said: "Marriage! ”

Li Xian was stunned, and suddenly said, "You said yes...... Let our daughter? ”

Concubine Wei said: "Not bad! If you want to get married, you have to marry the most shili person in the martial family, so it will help us. On the way to Beijing, the concubine has carefully inquired, the most powerful of the Wu family is now Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi, but these two families do not have girls of the right age to be married, otherwise if they marry a daughter-in-law who comes back to be our daughter-in-law, they will be the imperial concubine in the future, and they will be able to get the support of the Wu family.

Right now, we have no choice but to settle for the next best thing and marry our daughter into the martial arts. Fortunately, we have lived in the mountains for sixteen years, and the daughters' marriages have been delayed, and even the eldest daughter's husband's family has not yet been settled, and now the youngest daughter is sixteen years old. ”

Li Xian said in surprise: "This ...... You're not going to marry all of our daughters to the martial arts, are you? ”

Concubine Wei glanced at him and said, "Naturally impossible, are there so many marriageable men in the martial family?" If you don't marry into a martial arts family, your daughters will have to marry too, right? In addition to the samurai family, we can also choose some children of the powerful family to marry in the court, so that we can not only ease the relationship with the samurai, but also get a lot of help, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds? ”

Li Xian thought about it carefully, nodded and said, "What the lady said is a way. ”

Concubine Wei said happily: "Since you also agree, then we should strike while the iron is hot and arrange it as soon as possible." When you go to greet the queen mother tomorrow, find an opportunity to bring up this matter, remember, if the queen mother asks about your plans, you must mention the martial family first, and the two children, Xianhui and Bao'er, must marry into the Wei and Liang families respectively! ”

Li Xian has seven daughters, of which Wei has three daughters, the eldest daughter Shu Xiu, the second daughter Xian Hui, and the third daughter Bao'er, one is more beautiful than the other, Concubine Wei deliberately told her biological daughter to marry into the Liang and Wei Wang families respectively, Li Xian didn't think much about it, the mother is always partial to her biological daughter, the same is married, who doesn't want her daughter to marry into a great in-law's family.

When Li Xian and his wife were recruiting their son-in-law, Yang Fan was recruiting.

The Northern Ya Forbidden Army was originally controlled by the Southern Ya Forbidden Army, but since the time of Gaozong, it has become independent and has become an army directly under the emperor, which is actually the emperor's private army.

Now that Wu Zetian wants to expand the number of cavalry to a thousand, the whole thing is naturally just a sentence from the emperor, and the forbidden army system, the military department and even the political hall cannot be interrogated, and the matter of recruiting soldiers and horses is completely completed by Yang Fan alone.

When Yang Fan recruited troops, he first thought of a group of friends in the former army. Needless to say, the group of 100 riders is now the team of 1000 riders, but to expand to 1,000 people, it is necessary to recruit people from outside.

Yang Fan made friends in the army in the past were all relatively high-level, and the real low-level officers were only a few people such as Chu Yangge, Ma Qiao, and Li Dayin, and only these people could be recruited by him. As soon as Yang Fan came into contact with them, these people naturally gladly agreed.

Chu Yangge, Ma Qiao, Li Dayin and others all came, plus Huang Changxu, Xu Liang, Zhang Xitong and others, and initially set up his team.

These people have been in the army for many years, and each of them has his own small group, and there is a group of cronies and siblings, and when they come, they naturally bring in their own group of brothers. As a result, Yang Fan's men immediately expanded from one hundred to more than three or four hundred, but the number of people was still far from a thousand.

On the one hand, Yang Fan conducted an open selection from the forbidden armies in the north and south, and on the other hand, he made a notice, which was conveyed by each fangfangzheng, and selected the sons of good families who were innocent and proficient in martial arts from Luoyang to enlist in the army. In order to avoid the background of the soldiers recruited from other guards and forbidden armies being too complicated, Yang Fan also deliberately stipulated that only soldiers should be recruited.

The conscription here is in full swing, and Ma Qiao returned home over there, and revealed the news that the chief officer in charge of the recruitment of the forbidden army was Yang Fan to his mother, and his mother knew, and naturally the entire Xiuwenfang knew about it, and the Xiuwenfang was a sensation.

The people of Xiuwenfang only knew that the forbidden army was going to recruit soldiers, because Su Fang was going to various songs and alleys to talk about it, but they didn't know that the general in charge of recruiting troops was Yang Fan, and now they learned that it was Brother Fan who was in charge of recruiting troops, and the enthusiasm of the people of Xiuwenfang to join the army suddenly rose.

For a time, from sixty old men to ten-year-old naughty children, they all helped the old and the young to sign up, intending to eat a piece of imperial food and get a share of the emperor's salary, and some people found the Yang family to reminisce about the old days.

Yang Fan is at home, the old men talk to Yang Fan, talk about how the neighbors are harmonious when they were neighbors with Yang Fan, and they never reject Yang Fan, an outsider, and take care of them.

Yang Fan was so frightened that he ran away, and he didn't even dare to go home, so the eldest ladies came out one after another, grabbed the eldest lady of the Yang family and chatted with each other non-stop, praised her for being virtuous and beautiful, and brought her little granddaughter to recognize her as a godmother, so scared that Xie Xiaoman fled to Nanshi, and used more than 20 shops to catch up with these villagers.
