Li Keyong withdrew his troops before Zhu Wen's army arrived. Shi Shucong's troops successfully entered Yanmen Pass. Yanmen Pass was originally a pass city with almost no civilians except the defenders. After Li Keyong's troops withdrew,

There is almost nothing left in Yanmen Pass. The few people who are sparse and bright are all civilians with sallow faces and skinny muscles, as if they have not eaten for many days.

Shi Shucong looked at the situation at Yanmen Pass and was filled with emotion. The gentle sound of horse hoofbeats hit the ground, but it only brought desolation and desolation. Suddenly, a boy of twelve or thirteen years old knelt down in front of his horse.

He hurriedly pulled the reins of the horse, and the horseman stood up. The surrounding soldiers hurriedly protected him in front of Shishu Cong. He unsheathed his sword and placed several swords on the young man's neck.

The young man was so frightened that he was trembling all over, but he remained silent and stared at Shishu Cong with his eyes.

Shishu Cong waved his hand and asked the soldiers to retreat, and asked the young man: "Who are you? Why are you blocking my way?"

The young man said: "Is my cousin Yang Shihou serving in your old army? I want to see him, and I ask the old general for permission."

Uncle Cong pondered for a moment and said: "Master Yang and General Ge Congzhou went to Yunzhou and are not under my command. What is your name? Do you have any relatives at home?"

The young man immediately let out a sad voice and said: "My name is Yang Xin, and my father's name is Yang Wanli. My father disappeared many years ago. My mother has been ill in bed for a long time and passed away a few months ago. I am the only one left."

I was alone and helpless. I made a living by begging. I was captured by the Jin army in Taiyuan Prefecture and asked me to help them transport military rations at a young age.

There is a chance of survival..."

Of course Shi Shucong knows who Yang Wanli is. Which one of Yang Wanli, the "Invincible Golden Gun" who was famous all over the world in the world at that time, does not know? Shi Shucong has also been traveling in the world for many years. Of course, he knows Yang Wanli's reputation very well. He also

Knowing that Yang Wanli died in the hands of Zhu Wen in Weizhou. Tens of thousands of people from Weizhou watched the battle. It is almost impossible to say that Yang Xin did not know that Zhu Wen was his father-killing enemy, but since he

He knew clearly that Zhu Wen had killed his father with his own hands, so how could he dare to blatantly surrender to the Bian Army? Wasn't he afraid that Zhu Wen would eradicate the enemy?

Shi Shucong then secretly laughed bitterly and said to himself: "Who in the world doesn't know that my lord is kind? It was a helpless act to kill Yang Wanli back then. It was also Yang Wanli who wanted to die. Everyone knew it, but this Yang Xin can't stay. Now

Yang Xin's coming to vote must be a trick by Li Keyong!"

The murderous intent in Shi Shucong's eyes disappeared and he sneered: "Are you Yang Wanli's son? Don't you know that your father Yang Wanli intended to assassinate King Liang and was killed by King Liang in Weizhou a few years ago?"

Shi Shucong said this because he wanted to test whether Yang Xin was a spy sent by Li Keyong. If so, Yang Xin would definitely not dare to admit that he knew that his father was the assassin who assassinated Zhu Wen.

But Yang Xin nodded and said: "The common people know it, but the common people also know that King Liang's army is an army of benevolence and righteousness. King Liang is even more tolerant and will not impose his father's sins on us, the younger generations. Otherwise,

I will not let my cousin Yang Shihou serve in the army."

This was beyond Shishu Cong's expectation. If Yang Xin lied, he could find an excuse to kill Yang Xin and be done with it. But now Yang Xin told the truth and gave Zhu Wen a high hat.

, but Shi Shucong had no way to get angry, so he had to say: "You will stay in the army first. When our army returns, I will order you to be sent to Bianliang, and wait for General Yang to return to Bianliang."

When the time comes, your two brothers can meet each other."

Yang Xin said with tears of gratitude: "Thank you, old general, for your great kindness. Yang Xin will never forget it." He kowtowed deeply for several times, but his eyes inadvertently showed a trace of amusement. When he raised his head, there was another smile.

The sad look on his face.

Yang Xin just lived in Shi Shucong's army. He seemed to feel that Shi Shucong didn't have any good impressions of him, so he didn't run around. He ate and slept all day long, and he lived a happy life.

.

A few days later, Zhu Wen's Chinese army arrived at Yanmen Pass. Shi Shucong went ten miles out of the city to greet him. They held a feast to celebrate their victory that night. They were able to defeat Li Keyong so quickly and drive Li Keyong out of Yanmen Pass. The contribution of these ten cannons is indispensable.

No, so Lieutenant Jiang Fei, who was the artillery commander, was also allowed to accompany him at the last table under the exception.

At the celebration banquet, Zhu Wen toasted to Shishu Cong, Ding Hui, Zhang Guihou, Zhang Wengong and others one by one. The generals were extremely excited to be toasted by the King of Liang himself. Especially Zhang Wengong, who was the general of Weizhou, was even more excited.

Now Luo Hongxin, the military governor of Weibo Town, has passed away, and Luo Hongxin's son Luo Shaowei has taken over the position of military governor. Luo Shaowei does not have much prestige in the army of Weibo Town, and many generals tend to join Zhu Wen.

Tree, but the main power of Weibo Town has always been in the hands of the Yajun. Luo Hongxin was also born as a Yajun, so he was able to control the power of Weibo Town in the chaos.

Nowadays, the power of the Ya generals is too great, and Luo Shaowei cannot control the overall situation of Weibo Town at all. Zhang Wengong, as Luo Hongxin's favorite general, of course has to consider the young master at all times, so this time he was ordered to cooperate with the Bian army to deal with Li Keyong.

, it was also the result of the efforts of several of their generals who were loyal to Luo Shaowei. They wanted to use Zhu Wen to suppress the Yajun in Weibo Town, and this time Zhang Wengong also had other missions.

Because Zhang Wengong knew that Zhu Wen had a daughter named Zhang Ting. Although she was not the daughter of Zhu Wen's legitimate wife Zhang, her mother Wei's status in the Zhu family was also very high, equivalent to an equal wife, so Zhang Ting did not talk about it seriously.

It is not a concubine. If Luo Shaowei can be married to Zhu Wen's daughter, Wei Bozhen and the Xuanwu Army can be closely linked. The arrogant and domineering Yajun may not dare to do anything to Luo Shaowei. At least they should think

Think of Zhu Wen behind Luo Shaowei.

If the two families get married, dealing with Luo Shaowei is equivalent to dealing with Zhu Wen's son-in-law. Zhu Wen will definitely not sit idly by and ignore it. What's more, Zhu Wen has always been a person who protects his shortcomings. If Zhu Wen helps Luo Shaowei eradicate the Yajun in a rage

, even better.

Zhang Wengong knew that Zhu Wengong had just defeated Li Keyong and was in a good mood, so this was the best time to propose marriage. So after three drinks, Zhang Wengong took advantage of his drunkenness and said: "The king of Liang has hundreds of thousands of troops.

Equipped with sharp firearms, it is enough to become the most powerful vassal town in Li and Tang Dynasties. Even if it imitates the practice of the Five Hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period, it is not an exaggeration to unite the princes."

Zhu Wen smiled faintly. The Five Hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period only united the princes, but they also had to respect the Zhou Dynasty. But what Zhu Wen wanted was to completely overthrow the decadent Li and Tang dynasties and unify the world. Only in this way can the people live in true peace.

day.

But in this way, I don't know how many years of fighting will be needed to achieve this goal.

Zhu Wen said: "General Zhang has been praised too much. The Shatuo people are barbarians who are cruel and easy to kill. Moreover, Li Keyong has great ambitions and is domineering. As a vassal town, he has repeatedly interfered in the government affairs. He also said that if Zhang Jun is reinstated, he will lose his power in Hedong."

The army is about to march directly to Chang'an. This is simply a naked threat. He even dares to threaten the emperor, what else can't he do?"

Zhang Wengong also arrived: "Yes, Li Keyong repeatedly attacked Weibo Town. If King Liang hadn't sent troops to rescue him many times, I'm afraid Weibo Town is no longer owned by my general. Therefore, when the old general is here, every time he mentions it,

The king of Liang is respected beyond measure, and he also taught my young master to serve the king of Liang as a father. Now I heard that the king of Liang has a daughter who has grown hair and is still waiting to be married. It just so happens that the young master of my family is not married yet, so it is better for the two families to marry Qin and Jin.

Good, it will also give the young master a backer, and no one will dare to take ideas from Wei Bozhen in the future."

After Zhu Wen heard this, how could he not know Zhang Wengong's intention? To be honest, his daughter was still young. If she were 16 or 17 years old in the 21st century, she would still be in high school. But in the Tang Dynasty, women

You can get married at the age of fourteen. Those who are not married at the age of sixteen or seventeen are already considered old girls.

For this reason, Zhang Xiaohui and Wei Feng had also worried about their daughter, but they could never find a suitable family. Luo Shaowei had already been the governor of Weibo Town at a young age. It would not be an insult if he became their son-in-law.

Daughter, he still felt a little reluctant to let his daughter get married at such a young age.

Zhu Wen said: "My little girl has been pampered since she was a child. All the ladies feel pain like nothing. The princes of several vassal towns and princes have come to propose marriage, but they have been rejected by several ladies at home. Several ladies do not want their daughter to marry early.

, it’s hard for me, the head of the family, to say anything.”

Zhang Wengong said: "I heard that Your Highness the Princess is well-educated, gentle and virtuous. No wonder the ladies are reluctant to part with it. However, we can decide on the marriage first, and it will be up to the King of Liang to decide when to get married." All Zhang Wengong wants is to be able to make the young man happy.

The daughter of the Lord and Zhu Wen is named husband and wife. As for when the two will get married, and whether they will be happy after getting married, these are no longer the scope of his consideration.

This is a typical political marriage. Luo Shaowei wanted to have a strong backer like Zhu Wen, and Zhu Wen also wanted Luo Shaowei to join the Xuanwu Army wholeheartedly. Therefore, this political marriage took place naturally, and neither party had any reason to refuse.

Although Zhu Wen was a little worried that he had wronged his daughter, at this time, in order for the world to be settled as soon as possible and to reduce the number of disputes in the world, he had to agree to this political marriage.

Moreover, in this era and in this position, it is impossible for his daughter to fall in love freely. This is an indisputable fact. Zhu Wen has no better way. Zhu Wen also has some understanding of Luo Shaowei's character. Zhu Wen has personally visited Luo Shaowei several times.

When I went to Weizhou to help Luo Hongxin defeat the enemy, I also met Luo Shaowei. At that time, Luo Shaowei was still young, but he could already tell that he was a smart and intelligent child. However, the heirs born in such a feudal town were somewhat young and mature, because they shouldered many responsibilities.

With the hope of a family, whether a family can continue depends mainly on them. It is conceivable that they have to sacrifice their playing time since childhood to study, practice martial arts, and study the art of strategy.

Therefore, although most of the children from such aristocratic families are knowledgeable, knowledgeable, skilled in martial arts, and have strategies in mind, they just lack the feeling of being close to others, just like their sons Zhu Youyu and Zhu Youzhen, and Zhu Youwen,

Among his older sons, Zhu Yougui is the only one who is not very studious and is a bit playful. The other sons are relatively diligent.

Although Zhu Wen's own sons, under his own guidance, did not have the bad habits of those playboys from aristocratic families, nor did they have the airs of being aloof and repelling others thousands of miles away, but none of the other sons from aristocratic families had the same bad habits.
