Volume 8 Prosperity is at the End of My Hometown Chapter 679 Encounter (2)
Volume 8: The end of prosperity is my hometown. Chapter 679: Meeting (2)
(Haha, there are indeed quite a lot of ***. I don’t mind giving me more. I also recommend it. Compared with ***, it’s almost twenty to one.....)
Zhe Silian, whose courtesy name was Jiwei, was the second son of Zhehui, and was a general of the Tongguan Army.
This time Zhe Silian returned to Beijing to report his work, and the most important thing was to have a relationship with his elder brother Zhe Sigong. The two brothers have been in the army since they were young and have always been with their father. However, a few years ago, my grandfather Zhe Muqing's past life, and the Zhe family was in chaos for a while.
According to the regulations, we must be filial to our hometown, but Zhehui holds an important position and still seizes love to the Tongguan. Zhehui leaves the eldest son Junming to keep his father's order at home and takes his second son back to Tongguan. When the three-year period expires, Zhesigong returns to Zhehui.
This was not a big deal, and it should have been the case in theory. However, after Zhe Silian had been with his father for the past three years and always followed his father to listen to his teachings. At a young age, he had already had some rules in his behavior, so he naturally had the love for Zhe Hui. When Zhe Si returned to the army, after three years, he only saw his father chatting about how he and his brothers compared it? After a year and a half, he obviously felt his father's neglect and felt a little bit in his heart.
The brothers had a clique and intrigue, which was common among the aristocratic families. They first spoke coldly, and then they made many tricks. In addition, they were busy with military affairs, so they neglected the affairs of the two brothers. After a while, the two brothers were already in trouble.
However, in the end, Zhe Silian was defeated. The so-called success was Xiao He and Xiao He. He stayed by Zhehui for a long time, and there were many people he had dated. Somehow, it was related to the case of private sale of weapons by the Tongguan defenders in Tongguan, and the military was gradually increasing. Naturally, there was a contribution from the eldest son of Zhe. In the end, Zhang Peixian, the commander of the Tongguan garrison, called Zhehui and asked a few questions.
Zhehui was busy at this time. In recent years, the army was dismissed from the regiment training and the training of the imperial guards. The changes in the army were really great, and the army was repeatedly affected. Generals like the Zhe family were even more focused on this matter and did not dare to relax a little. At this moment, his son rushed to make trouble for him. Zhehui was furious and was too lazy to ask about it. He directly issued a command to drive Zhesilian back to Chang'an.
In this way, you can imagine how frustrated Zhe Silian felt.
In fact, Wang Zhongkun was wrong. The second son of Zhe was invited to the scene today, not for anything else. It was just because he was so angry that he stayed at home that the Ministry of War did not come down for a while. In addition, when the brothers in the clan talked about the second son of the Wang family, most of them would like to praise him. Not only did this person have a wide range of friendship, but he really had a unique feature in time to enjoy the fun. He did have a good father. Although the Wang family could not be more powerful than the Jie family, no matter what, General Wang was one of the few generals in the Qin Dynasty, and his status was comparable to that of his second son of Zhe.
So, Zhe Silian, who had always been a little arrogant, was invited to come happily, and he wanted to relax, but he really didn't think so.
I heard Wang Zhongkun say a lot, Zhe Silian lacks interest and squints his eyes, like a wolf who eats and drinks, and he only does not show any favors to the lamb.
Wang Zhongkun is helpless when facing such a person who is not good at making money. Today, he has made an example. If you want to talk about family members, you will be like a five-year-old family, or you will be like a five-year-old, and make friends. Everyone is not involved in any serious business and is only happy. Either you have a gentleman's friendship as calm as water, beware of others, and be careful of being plotted against. Or, you have deeper friendship, but you only talk three points, and if you are unfriendly, you will go, and if you are not, it is just a matter of interests. If you want to make a close friend, it is really like a fantasy on this level.
Now the situation of the Wang family is not good, but not bad, but it is impossible to compare with the time when Emperor Zhengde was in power. The imperial guards in front of the palace are gradually expanding. Everyone knows this, but the power of the Wang family is weakening at this time and is subject to more and more constraints. The two deputy commanders and deputy commanders are becoming more and more authoritative among the imperial guards in front of the palace. With the stable government, it is impossible for the Wang family to be as good as before.
In addition to the support of the few people in the court, General Wang and General Wang's unreliable actions have finally shown bad things over the years. The holy favors have gradually been lost, but no one can help him, so the situation is difficult.
Perhaps he had figured out the links, so the second son of Wang was kept in the capital by his father. In recent years, Wang Zhongkun has also focused on making friends with children from medieval families in Beijing. This is not a purposeless way to curry favor with anyone he meets. The second son of Wang made only two families, one was the Zheng family, and the other was the Zhe family.
These two families, one in literature and one in martial arts, are both top clans in the Qin Dynasty. No matter who they rely on, they will all help the current General Wang and the benefits are obvious.
However, General Wang himself was not easy to come forward, and he had only one son to make a small fuss in the middle, which was really very effective. Over the years, the two families had a lot of friends, but they were all from other families. They were still far behind to climb these two big trees.
Especially for such a large family, the strict discipline of the children of the legitimate branch is not something that can be imagined by a family like the Wang family. There are many invitations, but they just don’t see anyone coming to visit the door, but they are a little too conspicuous. If you accidentally pass it on, don’t let your friendship get caught, but you will get criticized by others. That will be a lot of money.
Therefore, this kind of connection between cliques always requires an opportunity. The imperial guards in front of the palace have their own system. When outsiders intervene, they always have to worry about three points. Adding up the two, the Wang family finally found that for the wealthy families in the capital, no one is willing to easily intervene in the imperial guards in front of the palace. That is extremely taboo. Thinking about this, the coldness of the Zheng family is reasonable.
However, the Zhe family and the imperial guards in front of the palace have a lot of entanglements, and they can firmly suppress the Zhong family. Therefore, in recent years, General Wang has actually leaned towards the Zhe family without any hesitation. Due to the times, he had no choice. Facing the increasingly close contact with the Zhong family, how could he choose?
But until now, this is just a tacit understanding, which is true, and no one has made it clear. For the Zhe family, it is ambiguous, but for General Wang, he is deeply concerned. He dare not easily pass the thunder pool. This is the norm in the officialdom, but it is not worth elaborating.
But today, the second son of Zhehui, who has gradually begun to establish his status as the Zhe family, suddenly appeared in front of him. In addition to being surprised, Wang Zhongkun's heart became lively. Although he had not thought much since childhood, he was proficient in eating, drinking, and having fun. He was never liked by his father, and he never let him enter the official career.
But he clearly understood why this unrestrained and rich life came from. Therefore, for him, making friendship with the second young master Zhe was helpful to both his family and himself. It was rare to have a good opportunity, and he had to make efforts.
Seeing that Zhe Silian didn't talk much, he could tell that he was in a bad mood. The previous temptation might be useless, so he was a little confused. However, before coming, he had made sufficient preparations and had also figured out a lot of the preferences and temperament of Mr. Zhe Er.
His eyes rolled, and he waved his hand with a smile, as if he wanted to drive away his embarrassment. Then he made a mysterious look and pushed the concubine beside him, "This wine is so light and tasteless, go and get my treasure..."
.............
"Good wine." Zhe Silian *** sniffed, couldn't help but praise, and drank it all in a hurry. After that, he sucked it a few times as the afterglow had not yet ended, and took the rough wine pot without hesitation, and poured another glass.
"But I don't want you to have such good wine here, and this trip is not unfair."
Wang Zhongkun laughed silently, took a sip of the warm and soft fruit brew in the cup, thinking, I was indeed not wrong. The second young master of the Zhe family was gentle and steady on the surface, but he was arrogant, aggressive and had a good spirit. Thanks to the Jiannan roast from Shu, which was not in line with his own taste, he kept it all the time, otherwise how could he do what he liked?
"Haha, my second brother has a good alcohol tolerance. I was afraid that this wine would not match my second brother's taste... It was the younger brother who thought it was wrong. My second brother was born in a military field and rode a horse and drank a strong wine. I admire him."
After three cups of dry hair, a few blush appeared on the face of the unique Qing Xiao of Zhe family. He slapped his thighs, "Which wine is brewed by a wine shop? I haven't returned to Chang'an for a few years, but I actually brewed such fine wine..."
"Thirty years old Jiannan roast is rare in Chang'an wine shops. There are some in the palace now, but it probably doesn't suit the taste of noble people... I have worked hard to help my father an old subordinate, and I got it from Shu thousands of miles away. If my second brother likes it, there are still two jars left at home, and I will ask someone to send it to my second brother later..."
"Thank you." Zhe Silian was not polite, and drank another cup and sniffed out a sip of alcohol. Although he was still squinting his eyes, he could tell that Wang Zhongkun's preparation was really in vain. In a blink of an eye, Mr. Zhe was in a good mood and gradually became more and more talked.
"Second brother, slow down. I didn't prepare a lot of wine. I'll just drink it all. If I say I and I have a relationship at first sight, I don't have many other problems. I'm just lustful. But heroes like the second brother are also good at wine. The wine and sex have never been separated since ancient times. We are not very close to each other?"
Zhe Silian finally couldn't help but laugh loudly. This playboy who had no ability in his eyes at first was also much more pleasing to the eyes. It turned out that he was a wonderful person, and it was also due to how General Wang, who was cautious and cautious, was educated?
"If you have not returned to Chang'an for several years, Chang'an has changed a lot, but it has changed. But the wine has not changed much, and it still has a soft taste. It is better not to drink it. Brother Wang is better than the monarch. What is the second brother? He called him "The word "六" with a call to the word "六"... If you haven't come this time, I really don't know how to survive in Chang'an. Now... Without military rules, I can finally drink it happily..."
Wang Zhongkun was secretly happy and said without a chance: "There is only such a strong wine... the Regal likes it. Speaking of which, the strongest wine in Chang'an is stored in two places..."
"Oh? Which two places?"
Wang Zhongkun shook his head, "One place is Desheng Bo Mansion. Who doesn't know the name of General Zhao's good drinking? He is also from a military background, where can there be less wine in the mansion? I heard that when you enter the palace from everywhere, your Majesty, the empresses always have to choose some to send it to you. In addition, General Zhao has a lot of old subordinates in central Shu, and the yin is damp in Shu, and it is said that among the New Year gifts given by the General Zhao, the most are the fine wine in Shu. Regal, what other house in Chang'an can have a lot of wine in Desheng Bo Mansion?
Needless to say, the other place is naturally in the palace... If Regal wants to eat the wine that is well-drink, it has to work hard from these two places. Where can I find it in the wine shop? Even if I find it, how can the taste be compared? And as Regal, it is not easy to come to the door to ask for some from Desheng Bo Mansion?"
Zhe Silian licked his lips with a little fascinated, but then he smiled distractedly, "Since there is a palace, why bother to look far away?"
Wang Zhongkun smiled inexplicably, but he was really envious and jealous. This family said so confidently. Compared with others, how bad is he?
Once the topic was opened, some people were talking. The two of them drank and talked. As long as they grasped the right degree, the atmosphere would be very happy.
While talking, the two couldn't help but talk about the Guowu Supervisor and the Tiger Martial Army, which is said to be unique. The Guowu Supervisor had already passed the difficult days when it was invented. The Guowu Supervisor recruited more and more students, and gradually turned from the military commander to the imperial guards. However, the time was still short and he was famous, but he was still far from being flocked to the enemy.
It was the gradually complete Tiger Wusheng Army, which was quite eye-catching. General Zhao was known for his military training. This Tiger Wusheng Army was handled from scratch by this general who had multiple positions. No one had seen its full picture, so there were many speculations. Young generals like Zhe Silian who came from a general who had been practicing in the army for several years were naturally very concerned.
Wang Zhongkun has been in the capital for several years and is very familiar with many things. He followed Zhe Silian's words and said everything he knew. There is nothing to be afraid of in this topic.
"The tiger's Wusheng Army is under the control of General Zhao, but there are actually three people in the head..."
"Oh? General Zhao didn't actually take charge of military power?"
"I just heard that General Zhao set up his training in Xishan Camp. His diligence and hard work were not allowed to be the left guard of Yulin at that time, but the orders were prohibited and the guard was very strict. There were too few people I had seen. I just heard that General Zhao was busy with the supervisor of the State Martial Arts and had never focused on military training..."
....................................
"Of the three leaders, I'm afraid the Regal knew one, Zhong Shi Zi, Zhong Huaiyu..."
"I heard of this, but... Zhong Qingzhe? Is it true that he has been reborn?"
"It's this person, hehe, the Regal might not have thought of it? Zhong Qingzhe is the deputy envoy of military training, and he is the one who temporarily takes charge of the military power of the Tiger Wusheng Army..."
This time, Zhe Silian was really surprised. Most of the brothers in the family talked about this matter. Now they have found the root cause. Zhong Wu, who is not a weapon in the Zong family, actually has a soldier alone. How can this make people feel? However, Zhe Silian is more willing to believe that it is only because this fifth is that man's uncle, which is a once-in-a-lifetime encounter for a general... Thinking about the Qi Niang of the Zong family who almost became his concubine, Zhe Silian felt so hard to say...
Wang Zhongkun continued on the other side, "To put it bluntly, Zhong Qingzhe is about the same age as us. His reputation in Chang'an back then...hehe, to put it bluntly, how much better than Wang? But after transforming himself, he reached this point...it's really..."
"But I also heard some stories, but I don't know whether it is true or not. In the fifth year of Jingxing, Zhong Qingzhe joined the Guowu Supervisory Commission. In the past two years, the Guowu Supervisory Commission was a competition. It is said that it was set up for the deputy envoy of the Tiger Wusheng Army. I heard that Zhong Qingzhe led 100 students to defeat the team led by several other people and won the championship in one fell swoop. Then he became the deputy envoy of the military training..."
"Military and national affairs... are a bit too much."
"But don't forget the regency. Did General Zhao win the championship because of the martial arts qualifiers, and then he took over the left guard of Yulin?"
Zhe Silian was in a bad mood, and he fucked another cup and smiled disdainfully. However, he felt that he could not understand the difference between the two and the playboy, but he turned around and said, "Who are the two other people?"
"One of them, born in the Yulin Zuowei, is a Hu man named Mu Huali. It is said that General Zhao brought back from the grassland. This man is brave and fearless, and his bow and horses are the best in the Yulin Zuowei. Now he is holding the most elite scout camp of the Tiger Wusheng Army..."
"The other person is also funny. Du Shiqing, a native of Hezhong, was originally a scholar who was a poor scholar and failed to pass the imperial examination. He turned to the National Martial Arts Supervision. Somehow he got the appreciation, but he was in charge of the Tiger Martial Arts Army baggage camp."
"These three people all have a friendship with classmates, and the tiger Wusheng Army is headed by these three people. I don't know what kind of troops can be trained..."
When the two of them said this, they both stopped talking, but while looking at each other, they saw a little contempt in their eyes. Obviously, they finally found something in common...
At this moment, the carriage suddenly slowed down. At first, the two of them didn't care, but gradually, they both raised their ears, like clear springs in the mountains, and like pure northern wind and snow, unrestrained and pure, bright and soft singing voices spread through the window frame, and passed into the ears along the warm spring breeze......
