Amid the rumble of horse hoofbeats, a cavalry team from Anyi entered Luoyang.
The big man at the head was unusually tall and burly in stature. This man was Jiri Batu, the first warrior of the Northern Huns.
The scribe next to him, wearing a mink coat and a Confucian scholar's gown, was Tian Feng.
For more than half a year, Tian Feng has been guarding Hedong alone and presiding over various affairs for Wei Cheng. Now he has finally seen the moonlight and paid homage to Sikong, becoming the three ministers of Zongzheng, Shaofu and Sinong.
He is mainly responsible for water conservancy projects, city defense construction, palace construction and other matters. He discusses the national affairs negotiated by Weijun with Taiwei and Situ, and will report them to the emperor after they are settled.
"Tian Sikong, you are finally here. You guys have been waiting so long."
As soon as the cavalry entered the city gate, they were stopped by several men. Xu Huang led several men from the Longshan Army to salute Tian and Feng with clasped fists.
Tian Feng turned over and dismounted, bowed his hands and said, "Long time no see, everyone. This is Jiri Batu, the first warrior of the Northern Huns. He is also the commander-in-chief of the new army, the Benlang Guard, appointed by Lord Wei."
Jiri Batu also turned over and dismounted, looked at Xu Huang and others warily, cupped his fists and said, "Jiri Batu, I have seen several generals."
Xu Huang and others looked at each other, but none of them gave Jiri Batu a good look. The centuries-old conflict between the Han and the Xiongnu was not something that could be dismissed so easily.
Seeing this, Tian Feng awkwardly said to Xu Huang: "A few of you are waiting at the city gate specifically to arrange for the general soldiers of Jiri Batu, right?"
Xu Huang snorted coldly, glanced at Jiri Batu, clasped fists with Tian Feng and said: "According to the requirements of the Wei Suo, the barbarians are not allowed to wander around the city privately before they settle down in the city, otherwise it will cause chaos. Wei Jun ordered
We will take them to Dingjunfang for resettlement."
Tian Feng nodded slightly and explained a few words to Jiri Batu.
Jiri Batu was not dissatisfied. He nodded and said, "Then why bother Mr. Tian and my daughter Mendu?"
Tian Feng nodded slightly and promised: "Don't worry, your daughter is safe. I will arrange for her to see you later."
When Jiri Batu heard this, he gratefully stroked his chest and said, "Thank you very much."
Xu Huang and others got on their horses. Before leaving, they turned back to Tian Feng and said, "Tian Sikong, Mr. Wei ordered you to have a good night's rest. It won't be too late to go to the palace tomorrow to report on your duties."
"Okay, Tian can save it." Tian Feng bowed his hands in greeting and watched the group leave with Jiri Batu.
"Brother Yuan Hao!"
"Aha, brother Wenruo."
Xun Yu didn't know when he appeared with a wine pot. He handed the wine pot to Tian Feng with a smile and said, "Let's go. Wei Jun has come out of the palace to take care of you."
Tian Feng was startled when he heard this. He took the jug in a flattered voice and said, "How can I make it happen? You are a noble prince, and your status is very different. How can you dare to bother me?"
Xun Yu smiled bitterly and said: "You also know the temper of the young master. Anyway, he is already waiting for you in the restaurant in front. How can you persuade him to go back? Let's go and have a drink. I haven't had a drink with you for a long time.
, I will definitely not come home until I get drunk today."
The two of them arrived at the door of the restaurant.
From the outside, the restaurant's business was very good, and it seemed that the restaurant was not being cleared out because of Wei Cheng's arrival.
Xun Yu said in a low voice: "Wei Jun is traveling lightly. When he comes, he goes straight to the box on the second floor. Don't worry, no one will find him."
Tian Feng felt a lot more relieved now. He had experienced an assassination, and now he took Wei Cheng's safety very seriously.
When the two arrived at the second floor of the restaurant, they could feel something unusual. They saw a total of eight private rooms on the second floor. Except for the one at the end of the corridor, the other seven were empty.
Hao Zhao was sitting at the top of the stairs holding a stool. When he saw Tian Feng coming up, he stood up and clasped his fists in salute, "I've seen Tian Sikong."
Tian Feng chuckled, helped Hao Zhao up with both hands, and said with a smile: "Brother Hao, there is no need to be polite."
Hao Zhao stood up, moved out of the way, bowed slightly and said, "Mr. Wei has been waiting for a long time, please come in quickly."
Tian Feng and Xun Yu returned the gift. Facing the future uncle of the country, they did not dare to be too negligent.
The two of them walked through the corridor and came to the door of the box.
But he heard the voices of other women talking inside. Tian Feng was stunned and asked curiously: "Brother Wen Ruo, is there anyone else inside?"
Xun Yu was also puzzled. When he left just now, Wei Jun was obviously the only one.
When the two walked to the door, the people in the room had already seen them.
Wei Cheng stood up and said with a smile: "Haha, we are finally here. Come on, you two come in quickly."
In addition to Wei Cheng, there were two women in the box. One of them was about eighteen or nineteen years old, dignified and elegant, with a well-proportioned body. She was staring at Tian Feng shyly, and the other was in his mid-thirties.
The age is somewhat similar to that of a young woman, and they should be mother and daughter.
"My lord Tian Feng, I have met Mr. Wei." Tian Feng entered the box, knelt on one knee and saluted, his expression unusually respectful.
Wei Cheng hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, and even patted the dust on Tian Feng's knees, and said angrily: "Yuan Hao, what are you doing? This is not a palace, we should just be casual, otherwise I will run out."
What’s the point?”
Just as Tian Feng was about to speak, the middle-aged lady suddenly came forward and said with a smile: "Cheng'er, this must be Tian Sikong. Oh, Tian Sikong is indeed a talented person. Cheng'er, please introduce it to your sister."
"
Wei Cheng smiled bitterly, "Third Aunt, you are too impatient. Yuan Hao has just arrived, and he doesn't even have time to have a drink."
The noble lady smiled bitterly and stared straight at Tian Feng, making Tian Feng look confused.
After sitting down, Wei Cheng said with a teasing look on his face: "This is my third aunt, this is the girl from my third uncle's family. They knew you were coming to Beijing to report on your work today, so they came here specially to see you."
When Tian Feng heard this, he couldn't understand why he was here to see him.
Looking at that woman again, although her appearance is not top-notch, she is still dignified and decent. She is also the legitimate daughter of Wei Cheng's third uncle, so she is more than worthy of herself.
Tian Feng is very self-aware. In terms of appearance, he is not as handsome as Xun Yu, and in terms of figure, he is not tall enough. The reason why people can like him, an ordinary-looking person, is thanks to Wei Cheng's trust in him and his repeated use.

of.
Just when Tian Feng opened his mouth to agree.
Da da da~
"Wait a minute, Cheng'er, it's me, let this little general release me quickly..."
When Aunt Wei's third wife heard the noise outside the house, her face suddenly changed and she said angrily: "How come she is everywhere in this second family?"
Wei Teng also recognized the voice of her second aunt Lu Ying, and hurriedly stood up and opened the door, frowning and saying, "Why is my second aunt here too?"
Lu Ying was being blocked by Hao Zhao with a stool two feet away. When she saw this, she said with embarrassment and annoyance: "Oh, Cheng'er, let him go quickly. Second Aunt, with her thin arms and legs, can't stand the torment."
.”
Wei Cheng raised his eyes and saw two delicate beauties following Lu Ying. He couldn't help but smile bitterly and shake his head.
"Xiao Zhao, don't be rude."
Hao Zhao looked at Lu Ying expressionlessly before giving in and letting Lu Ying pass.
Lu Ying smiled proudly, pulled her two nieces, and said: "Chen'er, I heard that Natian Sikong came to Beijing to report on his work today. Please help the second aunt take a look at my two little girls, Mrs. Wu, and do them for him."
How about a good wife?"
Wei Cheng looked back at Tian Feng, who was blushing, and asked helplessly: "Yuan Hao, what do you think?"
Tian Feng scratched his head and smiled awkwardly. Only now did he realize that sometimes being too popular is not a good thing.
It's too offending to choose someone or not.
···
Dingjunfang.
As soon as Jiri Batu entered the workshop, he felt great malice.
"Is that the new commander-in-chief?"
"I heard that Lord Wei wanted to build an army composed of barbarian cavalry, named Benlang."
"Hmph, the Hu cavalry are vulnerable to a single blow. If we provide them with equipment, it would be better to expand my Hu Po army."
"However, this Hu Nu is so tall, I feel like he can compete with Mr. Lu."
Everyone walked along and went straight to the Military Affairs Office where Xu Ding was.
Xu Huang said in a deep voice: "Go in and report by yourself. After receiving your military uniform and weapons, go directly to the school field in front."
Jiri Batu glanced at the place where people were practicing not far away, nodded slightly, caressed his chest and bowed before walking into the Military Affairs Office.
Outside, Xu Huang and others looked at each other, and Zhao Feng said: "Brother Xu, Wei Jun asked us to take more care of him. Isn't it bad if we neglect him like this? What if Wei Jun knows about it later?"
Xu Huang waved his hand nonchalantly and said: "If he wants to gain everyone's respect, he must conquer everyone with force. I'll give him the best care by letting him go to the school grounds for a while."
Zhao Feng and the others couldn't help but nodded when they heard this.
"I think this man's strength is not weak. After all, he is the number one warrior of the Huns."
"We'll find out later by letting the new recruits go up there and give it a try. It will also strengthen their spirits and let them know how dangerous it is outside."
Xu Huang said hello, and they went straight to the school grounds.
In the room, Xu Dingduan is sitting behind a long desk handling official duties. His status is not low now. As one of the nine ministers, he is in charge of military weapons, honor guards and other matters. He sits in Dingjunfang all year round, holding the other half of the military talisman.
Gain Weijun's trust.
"Are you Jiri Batu?" Xu Ding asked without raising his head.
Jiri Batu stroked his chest and bowed, his eyes curiously looking at the surrounding arrangements.
Seeing him like this, Xu Ding simply didn't bother to lecture him. He probably didn't even understand this big guy.
Since he is from the military, let him speak for himself based on his strength. I guess those guys outside can't wait any longer.
Xu Ding smiled and looked at the steward on the side.
The steward nodded slightly and soon brought out a set of standard training uniforms and a nine-ring sword.
The nine-ring sword was a bit heavier than the sword on Jiri Batu's waist, and it was carried up by two strong men.
When Jiri Batu saw this, his eyes lit up, and he stepped forward to give it a try, but because Xu Ding didn't speak, he didn't dare to move.
Born in the grassland, he has a natural ability to sense danger. After he entered this house, the hair on his body never fell.
Although he didn't know what danger was staring at him, for safety reasons, Jiri Batu still looked at Xu Ding honestly.
Steward Xu Dingchao nodded slightly.
The steward said to Jiri Batu: "Come with me, I will take you to the dressing room."
Jiri Batu was stunned, that's it? He looked at Xu Ding in disbelief, only to see that Xu Ding was still immersed in his official duties, as if he had no time to talk to him at all.
Jiri Batu bowed somewhat depressedly and followed the steward away.
After a stick of incense.
Jiri Batu, wearing a leather armor and holding a huge nine-ring sword in his hand, came to the school grounds majestically.
At this time, there were already people on the school field feeding each other. Suddenly, they saw a big man with a foreign face approaching, and everyone stopped.
Xu Huang, Zhao Feng and others looked at each other.
Without their instructions, new recruits who couldn't stand Jiri Batu immediately came up to provoke him.
Dingjunfang does not object to military competitions between sergeants, and will even encourage such behavior, as long as it does not cause loss of life.
Therefore, when facing the Huns Jiri Batu, some men who had just joined the Longshan Army or the Hupo Army and had not been to the grassland were all talking about having a fight with Jiri Batu.
Jiri Batu finally figured out the reason with his poor Chinese.
He was also happy to learn that he could fight at will. Not only the Han people were martial, but also the Huns, and all of them were soldiers, and everyone was brave and fierce.
Bah~
Jiri Batu thrust the big knife in his hand into the ground, took a stance, and shouted word by word in Chinese: "Come on, anyone can come up."
···
An hour later.
Seeing the new recruits staggering around on the school field, Xu Huang was furious.
There are so many people fighting each other, but someone can easily defeat the whole audience. What kind of rubbish is this?
At this time, Jiri Batu was still blushing and out of breath, and even the nine-ringed sword was still stuck on the ground and had not been used.
Zhao Feng and others looked at each other and sighed: "He is indeed the first warrior of the Xiongnu. He is as brave as Lu Fengxian."
"I'll go up and try." Hua Cun was eager to give it a try.
Xu Huang stopped him and said in a deep voice: "No, we must let the recruits solve it themselves."
As he said that, he looked at the other dozen recruits not far away who were immersed in training. None of them were easy.
The dozen or so people didn't pay any attention to the commotion here. They were immersed in hard work from beginning to end, working hard every one of them.
Xu Huang was very satisfied with this, but this was the time when they needed to take action.
Xu Huang glanced around, and finally settled on a recruit, shouting: "Zhang He, go up and try."
Zhang He was extremely depressed when he was called. He was practicing squats with two large iron pestles. Each of the iron pestles was estimated to weigh more than a hundred kilograms, but he could hold it with just five fingers. At this time, he was suddenly
Interruption, where can I be happy?
Zhang He reluctantly dropped the iron pestle, glanced at the tall and tall Jiri Batu on the field, cupped his fists and said: "General Xu, this is just a competition of strength. I am not his opponent, can I use a weapon?"
Xu Huang nodded slightly, there was no limit on weapons in the competition.
Seeing this, Zhang He walked to the weapons rack on the side, took off his spear, and then muttered: "It's really troublesome, because my training volume today is far behind theirs. It seems that we need to fight quickly.
