Yes, Han Yun, the dignified Marquis of Zhenbei, who is at the top in any field, is envied by countless people and will also envy others.
Envy means that you desire to have what others have.
Just like in front of me.
Han Yun was puzzled to understand that Zhang Xiaoyu's two wives, Zhang Mengqi and Jialan, were childhood sweethearts from their hometown and a poor peasant girl, and the other was a peerless beauty and wealthy woman from a foreign country.
The two women have different cultures, different environments, and different personalities. It can be said that they have nothing in common.
How did these two people get to chat together? They should be enemies, but they get along so well.
The smiles in their eyes don't look fake at all.
This Xiaoyu is very capable, how did he do it?
These two people in my own family always get at each other's throats whenever they meet, and they are constantly sarcastic.
Is there any way to make the two of them live in harmony?
Han Yun looked at Qi Xiaoyu and his aunt beside him, then at the two women at home, shook his head and sighed.
Sure enough, my wife is someone else’s.
Qi Xiaoyu was busy chatting and didn't see his move, but her aunt saw it and immediately snorted coldly, scaring Zhenbei Hou to tremble.
My aunt is angry again and needs to be coaxed again in the evening.
When he thought of this, Han Yun felt pain in his waist.
Everyone was chatting happily, and Han Yun also said to Zhang Xiaoyu,
"Brother Zhang, you have worked hard in Loulan Kingdom. I have reported your achievements to the court together with Nie Shuai, but the reward from the court has not yet come because I have discussed it with Nie Ze and the money and other things for the reward have been prepared.
Okay, but the position still needs to ask for your opinion.
You used to be a soldier of the Yue Family Army, you could also lead troops in war, you were also well-read in poetry and books, you were good at literature, Taoism and military strategy. You also served as the official minister of Loulan Kingdom, so your ability to govern is not bad.
I would like to ask you, do you want to stay at Yumenguan and lead troops to fight? Or do you want to become an official in the court and enter the official career?
I can guarantee that if you stay in the army, you can be made a general and form an army of ten thousand people under your command. There may not be too many wars at Yumen Pass in the future, and there will be fewer opportunities to make meritorious deeds, but accordingly
It's also safer.
However, those in the Western Region may not give up and may come back with evil intentions.
If you want to go to the imperial court, I have a very good relationship with the Sixth Prince of the Household Department and the Assistant Minister of the Cabinet, the Minister of Civil Affairs Chai Yuan, so I can ensure your success."
After listening to what Han Yun said, Zhang Xiaoyu was deeply moved. Mr. Hou and Nie Shuai had already arranged his affairs, which was really troublesome.
Zhang Xiaoyu clasped his hands and bowed,
"Thank you, Lord Marquis, for taking the trouble to arrange so many things for me. Lord Marquis, joining the court and serving as an official was my wish when I was young. However, I grew up in Yumen Pass since I was a child and have a deep affection for this place. Here are some
My home also contains the people I care about most.
The villain has been wandering outside for five years. He misses his hometown every day. The idea of making achievements is no longer important. Now he just wants to stay in his hometown, protect his family, protect his hometown, have a simple meal, fill in the pits, and be happy to live in poverty and travel peacefully.
The villain does not want to become an official in the court, but wants to stay in Yumen Pass to accompany his wife and his soldiers.
Lord Marquis, the defense army has a fixed establishment. There are 150,000 defense troops plus 50,000 Yue family troops. There are 20 generals, one carrot and one pit. It is not appropriate to transfer anyone, and it is not what the villain wants.
.
Even with the skills of a villain, he cannot lead ten thousand people.
If possible, General Xie once promised me to help me reorganize Sichuan Camp.
The Sichuan Battalion was a battalion I formed in Loulan using pure Sichuan people. When I attacked the Loulan Palace and captured Talmu alive, only a hundred or so of the thousand people who died were left.
The villain wants to reorganize the Sichuan Battalion, become the commander of this battalion, and join the Yue Family Army.
The villain is a member of the Yue family for one year, and a member of the Yue family for the rest of his life."
"Okay, okay, I promise you this on behalf of Nie Ze, and I will arrange someone for you when the time comes.
Horse, let you take charge of the training.
As for the court rewards and the Ministry of War documents, he will do a good job.
I have nothing to reward you now. I heard from Xiaoyu that your home is quite small and shabby, so I rewarded you with a large house, where all the maids and servants have been prepared for you.
Of course, with your military salary, it is a bit difficult to feed these people, so their monthly salary will be provided by the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, and you can safely support your two lovely wives and future children.
Come on, I’ll take you to see your yard.”
After Han Yun finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the Yumen Pass.
Zhang Xiaoyu was very anxious after hearing this and immediately said,
"Master Marquis, this is impossible. How can I deserve such a reward from Master Marquis for my meager achievements? I ask Master Marquis to take back his life."
"You deserve it. Without you, Talmu would have committed suicide.
Also, you, your sweet wife from the Western Regions, is pampered and well-off in the Western Regions. Do you want people to live with you in that drafty little house? Let people say that this is how we Sichuan people entertain others?
You are a rough guy, you can sleep on the street without any problem, don’t let your wife suffer along with you.”
Zhang Xiaoyu wanted to speak, so Zhang Mengqi pulled Jialan and followed her, saying,
"Husband, don't refuse. Mr. Hou is a good person. He is as good as sister Xiaoyu. He loves the people like a son, and knows rewards and punishments. He is an excellent person. He gives it to you, so you can accept the reward with peace of mind."
Zhang Xiaoyu nodded after hearing this.
At this time, all the teams escorting the prisoners and trophies had also entered.
The ground covered with white snow had been walked by hundreds of thousands of people, and it already looked a bit muddy.
Han Yun's two wives, holding Xiao Yuxin in their arms, came all the way to Beicheng, a large house with three entrances.
This big house is not even one-tenth the size of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, but it can be sold for thousands of taels of silver in a place like Yumenguan where the land is so precious. It is better than what ordinary wealthy families live in, let alone living with Zhang Xiaoyu.
Compared to the home I lived in before.
After leading them in, Han Yun said,
"Brother Zhang, I will come to the Marquis Mansion to drink with Zhao Long, Xie Xing and others tonight, and I will help you to cleanse yourself from the wind and dust."
"Thank you, Lord Marquis."
"Sister Mengqi, sister Jialan, you two are going too. We won't sit with them."
Qi Xiaoyu waved repeatedly.
Han Yun took Qi Xiaoyu and the others back to Zhenbei Hou Mansion.
Zhang Xiaoyu looked at the strange and spacious courtyard in front of him and sighed,
"The Marquis is very thoughtful and has given us such a big yard. This will be our home from now on."
Jialan looked around and said,
"Although it is not as big as the previous Zhang Mansion, it is exquisite and elegant, and the decoration is excellent. Sure enough, your Dachuan is richer and has more skilled craftsmen than Loulan."
Zhang Mengqi had already run away, excitedly walking around her new home.
Looking at every plant and tree here, I feel very friendly.
