Chapter 827
The king of Wu died, and the whole country was in mourning.On the same day that the young son ascended the throne of King Wu in Jinling, the grandson of the late grandson was crowned King of Yue in Hangzhou, and Wu and Yue were officially separated.
The state of Yue was newly established, and things were complicated.The work of wooing officials belongs to Bao Laosan, and Sister Zeng is also helping.Zhen Zangzhu was not good at these things, so he asked generals big and small to compete in martial arts one by one.Yang An was not in a hurry to leave either.This time, the children brought here are all the children who immigrated from China in recent years, so it would be better if they could stay in their home country for a while.Leading troops to help Zhen Zangzhu in the battle during the day, and chasing and competing with others at night.
Rao was little general Yang An who practiced martial arts day and night in the past few years, and was still killed in a flash in front of Zhen Zangzhu.Hit once and lose once, hit ten times and lose ten times.Yang An was not discouraged either, and fought repeatedly after repeated defeats.All the soldiers under him knew that the general gave Lord Zhen a bad fight, and they would ask him when they went out for exercises in the morning: "General Yang, did you win last night?"
Yang An shrugged off, "No."
"The general will continue to work hard tonight! You can only lose one more time, and you won't be afraid of itching if you have too many lice."
"Where did you learn this? Can you learn something nice?"
Two months later, Zhen Zangzhu defeated all the generals of the Yue Kingdom, and slowly returned to Hangzhou, telling the King of Yue: "The general is ready." The King of Yue was overjoyed.
Six years ago, Zhen Zangzhu first came to the state of Wu.In order to conceal their identities and dispel the suspicion of the two gentlemen of the Bao family, they forcibly robbed a civilian girl named Xu in the street and took her as a concubine.When the king of Wu first moved the Bao family, Zhen Zangzhu sent someone to rush Xu and his adopted son to a Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Shanghai to hide them.Now the state of Yue has been established, and the chores are over.As the number one minister, Zhen Zangzhu didn't need to act for anyone, so he took the mother and son to a house in Shanghai.
Nai said to Xu seriously: "Your illness was cured two or three years ago. After two years of recuperation, you have already recovered. Now the Yue Kingdom is newly established, and a lot of waste is waiting to be rebuilt. I am much busier than in the early years, no matter how difficult it is. I have free time to take care of you. You are only in your 20s. I recognize you as my cousin, let's find a good family while you are young."
Xu was stunned.After a long while, he fell down on the chair and cried in shock: "My lord, this is...what's wrong with me?"
Zhen Zangzhu said: "You are not ill and your illness has recovered."
Mrs. Xu shouted urgently: "Master said that I am sick and must be taken care of! I have been taken care of now, haven't I?"
"Yes." Zhen Zangzhu said, "It was raised two years ago. I think it will be more stable for two more years."
Xu shouted again: "Isn't my illness cured?!"
Zhen Zangzhu said: "It's done. It's already done." Mrs. Xu opened her mouth several times, but she didn't say anything.
She was an ordinary woman, she never thought of marrying a high official.Zhen Zangzhu was very polite after snatching her back to the house, saying that she had a heart disease and could only recover slowly.He mentioned the reason for saving her, saying that she looked like an old friend.Xu naturally thought that the "old man" must be Master Zhen's deceased wife.
At first, Mrs. Xu didn't think much about it, she just thought that Mrs. Zhen was a good person who saved her from suffering with kindness.One month and one year, six full years have passed.Zhen Zangzhu has grown from a small official of the sixth rank to a high-ranking official of the third rank, and has never entered the mansion with a single woman.The clothes that Mrs. Xu wore became silk, and her son also invited a private school teacher to teach him to read.Xu couldn't help but think: how can such a high-ranking official not marry a wife?Mr. Zhen was really infatuated with his dead wife.He also looks like his dead wife... Although Bing Zhen Zangzhu behaved well to Xu, she liked her son very much.As long as he recovers from his illness, he will probably be able to consummate a house and raise a son for Mr. Zhen.I've been thinking about this idea for years.After finally surviving until she recovered from her illness, Master Zhen actually wanted to send her away?
Zhen Zangzhu was also dumbfounded.He thought that the actions he had treated Xu over the years had very clear meanings, and they were only for saving someone.Xu should understand the meaning.Why do you look at her like this, as if you have betrayed yourself?Nai thought for a moment, then turned around and called for my aunt to come over.
Back then, Zhen Zangzhu also rescued an aunt from the Jiming Temple, who was the fourth daughter of Zhen Yingjia and the younger sister of Zhen Zhen Zangzhu.After this woman returned to secular life, she worked as a female teacher in Jinling.Later, a student who was good at painting took her portrait and accidentally let his uncle see it.The uncle was astonished and begged for marriage.Zhen Zangzhu saw that although this person was somewhat insane, he had a good personality and family background, so he agreed.Before this trip to seek Wu, Zhen Zangzhu first asked his sister and brother-in-law to move to Shanghai, saying that he was planning to build Shanghai University.The family did not doubt that he was there, and they really came to run the school.The house was originally prepared by Zhen Zangzhu, so it is next door.
All of a sudden Zhen Zangzhu heard the shout outside, "Auntie is here", and immediately went out of the house.Mrs. Zhen hurriedly asked what was the matter.Zhen Zangzhu turned around and looked at the door curtain behind her, and said in a low voice: "Everything is safe now. I told Mrs. Xu to find a good family, but she... was dumbfounded."
Zhen raised her eyes to look at her brother, then at the door curtain: "Are you so reckless to tell others?"
Zhen Zangzhu said: "I said it six years ago, but I just saved her."
Zhen said firmly: "How many people still remember what I said six years ago?" Zhen Zangzhu was taken aback.Zhen shook her head, "She is the only woman by your side, how could she not think too much about it!"
"I have been treating each other with courtesy for many years, don't you understand it very well? For a while, I went to Huafang to have a drink." Jia Cong reminded him that this Xu family is simple, I am afraid that he will think too much.He often went to the Qinhuai River with Bao Sanye to drink flowers and wine, thinking that Mrs. Xu would not have any thoughts about him after learning about it.
Zhen Shi couldn't help but laugh: "Didn't my brother go away later?"
"Aren't I busy later?"
Zhen waved her hands repeatedly: "You don't know what women think at all." Nai thought for a moment, then pulled Zhen Zangzhu to the corner of the yard and asked softly, "Brother really doesn't care about her at all?"
"No."
"Are you never going to marry again in your life?"
"No." Zhen Zangzhu said, "I will marry a wife in a year or two at most." He thought for a while, then smiled, "Political marriage."
Zhen's eyebrows raised: "Impossible. Brother can't do it."
"It's really a political marriage." Zhen Zangzhu said seriously, "For Yue."
Mrs. Zhen stared at him for a long time, but couldn't tell the truth, she pursed her lips and said, "Forget it, brother has his own opinion. Are you absolutely going to not want that one?" Zhen Zangzhu nodded.Zhen Shi turned around and entered the house.
After a stick of incense, it was heard that Mrs. Xu was crying loudly in the house.After waiting for a while, Mrs. Zhen came out, looked at Zhen Zangzhu and nodded.Zhen Zangzhu was surprised: "So fast? What did you say?"
Zhen said: "I told her that my brother is an important minister of the Yue Kingdom and has not yet married a wife. The prince wants to marry you the daughter of his confidant. You are not allowed to have a concubine in your family."
Zhen Zangzhu was stunned for a moment and said, "Why didn't I think of this..."
Mrs. Zhen said contemptuously: "You two have such a big difference in family background, you didn't expect it!" She turned and left.
After crying for two days, Mrs. Xu accepted Zhen Zangzhu's arrangement, and from now on she only said that she was his distant cousin.However, looking at Zhen Zangzhu, his eyes are still full of affection.Zhen Zangzhu frowned.
Now that this matter is over, Zhen Zangzhu will devote himself to dealing with King Yue.Nai first went to the barracks to find Yang An and said, "You should go to the capital for a walk."
Yang An said with a smile: "I was going to Beijing, I haven't seen my uncle for so many days. Are there any masters in the capital?"
"Yes." Zhen Zangzhu said, "In our Liu family, most of the male and female children of your generation are in Beijing. It is very easy for you to lose." Yang An wrinkled his nose.
A few days later, Yang An bid farewell to Sister Zeng Bao Sanye and others, and led the army northward.In the territory of Qi State, I met robbers who robbed a convoy and helped them fight back from the enemy.
On this day when he entered the capital, he placed the soldiers outside the city and waited for a while, then he took four or five personal soldiers and went straight to his uncle Yang Song's yamen.When I got there and asked, Yang Song led the armed policemen to field training, and he would not come back for more than ten days.Then he took out the map and glanced twice, found the Zhengshitang, turned around and waved to the soldiers: "Let's go, let's take you to see the government building of Yan State."
Yang An has not returned to the capital for many years.However, he was very good at reading maps, so he rushed to the gate of Zhengshitang without even taking a detour.He was not wearing a military uniform, and he jumped off his horse in a straight posture and saluted the guards. "Hello, comrade. My name is Yang An, and I'm from Nanyang. I'm looking for the regent, Jia Cong."
The guard replied: "My lord is not here on leave these days."
"Is Prime Minister Lin Daiyu here?"
The guard glanced at him unconsciously: "The prime minister is in the hall. Please wait a moment." Then he turned and reported.After a while, he came out and brought Yang An in.
Lin Daiyu hadn't seen this little apprentice for many years.Hearing him come in, he raised his head with a smile and said, "An'er, wait a minute. I still have something to do."
Yang An hurriedly came forward to salute: "Master is good! Is there any disciple who can help?"
"No." Lin Daiyu buried her head in the case again. "If you're bored, go out for a walk."
Yang An looked out the window: "Oh, okay." The guard hadn't left yet, and when he heard him call Lin Xiang "Master", he looked at him curiously.
Yang An went out of the house and walked around to say hello to the people, and found that none of the elders were free, so he muttered: "Malays is not so busy."
He happened to be in front of Zhan Kun when he spoke.Zhan Kun said casually: "How many people do you have, and how many people do you have in the country of Yan? Regardless of taxation and expenditure, it is hundreds of times."
Yang An leaned over: "Uncle Kun, where's Third Uncle Cong? Are you running away?"
"I'm taking care of your third aunt."
"what?"
It turned out that everyone was very busy when they first arrived in Yan State in the past few years.Families dare not have a second child, for fear that they will not be able to take care of it.Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng were both anxious: too few grandchildren!Each family has only one son and grandson, and Jia Cong is still a daughter.So he urged the children to use their ideas.Jia Cong thought, the Prince Regent must take the lead in this matter!He worked hard and succeeded.Chen Ruijin's second child probably had a different blood type from her own, and her reactions during pregnancy were dark and dark, and she vomited whatever she ate.Jia Cong jumped anxiously, but even the imperial doctor couldn't help with such things.Chen Ruijin is also good at temper, he is as irritable as a hedgehog.Jia Cong simply asked for leave and went home to take care of the pregnancy reaction.Fortunately, he happened to be the regent, and someone else would guarantee that he would not be able to take such a long vacation.
After hearing this, Yang An rubbed his neck: Since that's the case, I won't go to him anymore, lest he get upset when he's in a bad mood.Nai pursed his lips and asked, "Uncle Kun, do you know about Da Nei Liu's family?"
Zhan Kun didn't raise his head: "I know. Is there something wrong?"
"Where can I find their people? I want to compete."
"Your soldiers are settled?"
"At first my uncle said to take him to his place to have a look, but he led the team to practice. I brought all the field teams, so it's okay to let them stay outside the city for a few days."
Zhan Kun thought for a while: "Since we have come to the capital, we didn't let the soldiers stay outside the city." He pointed to the east side, "Guotian Street, the six departments are there. Find the Ministry of War. The Minister of the Ministry of War is Cheng Chi."
"Oh." Yang An agreed, turned and left.A few soldiers behind him flirtatiously: The general is so face-saving!As soon as he entered Beijing, the Prime Minister Taishi Shangshu and the Regent met casually.
According to Yang An's words, he found the Yamen of the Ministry of War on the opposite side, saw Cheng Chi, and settled the soldiers properly.He wanted to go to the Liu family to learn martial arts.This time, he didn't bring his own soldiers and returned to the political affairs hall alone.I don't want Lin Daiyu to rush everyone to a meeting, and the guards at the door won't let him in!Yang An was helpless, and ran to Liubu across Tianjie.When I arrived, I found out that all six ministers had gone to a meeting.Yang Anli was bored in front of the office of the Minister of War.An assistant asked, "Is General Yang still busy?"
"It's okay, I'm leaving now." Yang An blinked, "Is there anything interesting in the capital now? It didn't exist in the early years."
The assistant said with a smile: "In the early years, people were not allowed to play in the Forbidden City, but now they are allowed."
Yang An thought, it's not bad!He was a child when he left the capital.Let Jia Cong fool him with One Piece for a while, and follow his father to become a pirate.At that time, the Forbidden City was an unattainable place in his eyes.Now that he grows up and comes back, it is almost becoming a tourist attraction.He had the military passport given by Zhang Chengchi in his arms, so he thought it would be no problem to enter the Forbidden City.Besides, the Forbidden City is right next to the Ministry of War, so I will come back after a stroll.Then he went out, turned right and ran to Chengtianmen.
That pass really works.The eunuch guarding the gate let him in without even asking.Yang An wandered around with his arms folded, and walked to the gate of the Taimiao without realizing it.There are also a few eunuchs guarding the Taimiao, and they recognize his pass.Yang An said "Thank you" and walked inside.I wandered to the front hall for a while.It is majestic and magnificent here, and I have never seen it before, so I stopped to watch it carefully.
Suddenly someone shouted: "Hey! Who are you? Who let you in?"
Yang An turned his head and saw two people walked in from the back of the hall.A girl in her twenties and a boy in her sixteen or seventeen.Then he clasped his fists and said, "I'm a tourist, here for sightseeing."
The young man said calmly: "There are only one group of tourists in the Forbidden City every day, and they are probably taking pictures in Daming Palace at this moment."
Yang An smiled and said, "I am not with them."
"Did you give more money than others?"
Yang An thought for a while: "I'm probably the kind who doesn't give money."
The boy was slightly taken aback, and turned to look at the girl.The girl had been sizing up Yang An for half a day just now, she clasped her fists and said, "Who is your lord? What's the matter here?"
People are polite, so Yang An naturally has to be polite, and replied: "My surname is Yang, and I am from Nanyang on a business trip. Because I am waiting for someone in the Ministry of War, that person has gone to a meeting and I don't know how long it will be, so I came here to take a look." Take out the pass.
The girl took it over and looked at it, and said apologetically, "Sorry, we were rude." She returned the certificate to him.Yang An put away the documents and asked the person's name by the way.The girl said, "Our sibling's surname is Liu."
Yang An was thinking about having a martial arts competition with members of the Liu family in Da Nei, when he heard the word "Liu", his eyes lit up: "I think you two look like members of the Lian family."
The boy's eyes also brightened: "I have practiced a little bit of superficial ideas."
Yang An thought: This must be modest!Children of Ouchi Liu's family!He hurriedly cupped his fists together: "Brother Liu, since everyone has nothing to do, how about we exchange ideas?"
