Wen Yuan remembered that Zhang Jiao had no heirs in his life, so he did not expect him to have an adopted daughter. He heard from Zhou Cang that before Zhang Jiao died of illness, he entrusted his adopted daughter Zhang Ning to Zhang Bao to raise him. As a result, within a few months, Zhang Ning was raised by Zhang Bao.
The Battle of Quyang broke out, and Zhang Bao was also defeated. However, before he died, he entrusted his brother's adopted daughter to Zhou Cang, Pei Yuanshao and others. Zhou Cang and others lived up to Zhang Bao's expectations and protected Zhang Ning to break into the siege.
Since then, Zhou Cang, Pei Yuanshao and others have protected Zhang Ning and wandered around, hiding his name and avoiding the wanted officials. They have traveled all over Jizhou, Qingzhou, and most of Youzhou. Six years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Zhang Ning was riding on the horse, looking at Wen Yuan's majestic back with a pair of crystal eyes. He was filled with emotions, ashamed and happy at the same time.
In the past six years, the little girl who was once in her prime has now grown up, but the Yellow Turban uprising that once spread vigorously across the Central Plains has gradually declined. The wave of uprisings in various places in Jizhou have been extinguished one after another, and the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou have also died down and dispersed underground. Only Zhang Yan in Montenegro
He repeatedly defeated the encircling and suppressing army. Zhang Ning had been wandering for six years and was used to the warmth and coldness of the world. He had experienced all the sufferings in the world, but his desire to avenge his father had not faded. This time he planned to go west to join Zhang Yan, hoping to use the power of the Black Mountain Army.
When I wanted to revive the reputation of the Yellow Turban and didn't want to pass by the once sad place - Julu, what happened in front of me was unbelievable.
Although he has only been in office for three months, the people of Julu are already sincerely grateful to Wen Yuan. It was he who led the newly formed Julu Army of less than 10,000 people to repel the invasion of more than 100,000 Black Mountain bandits and saved Julu.
The lives and properties of more than 300,000 people were not robbed by the Black Mountain bandits.
Now that the Black Mountains have receded and the people of Julu have successfully harvested their autumn harvest, they can finally rest for a year in this troubled time and live a stable and peaceful life. How can the people not be happy?
Outside Yingtao City, Zhang Ning, Zhou Cang and others all witnessed the touching welcome ceremony. Tens of thousands of people greeted the victorious Julu soldiers with meals and pots of milk. Seeing the ashes of the fallen soldiers, the common people felt the same.
He burst into tears. Zhang Ning believed that he had never seen this kind of deep friendship between officials and people outside Julu in the past six years, so he paid special attention to the newly appointed young prefect, so Zhang Ning created the Mid-Autumn Moon Night Zhang Ning.
Ning's amazing performance.
Before the performance, Zhang Ning had already found out that the young prefect named Zhang Liao was once the county magistrate of Xia Quyang, and during his governance of Xia Quyang, he did not object to the people paying homage to the souls of more than 80,000 Yellow Turban soldiers who died in the Nanjing Temple. This point
Zhang Ning was not surprised.
Zhang Ning had always believed that the rulers and the people represented two diametrically opposed classes. In order to protect his notice, the imperial court did not hesitate to swing the bloody butcher knife at the people, otherwise it would not have killed people like crazy in the first year of Zhongping.
Kill hundreds of thousands of rebels.
But what he saw and heard after arriving in Julu made Zhang Ning a little shaken. Zhang Liao, the governor here, did not seem to regard the soldiers and civilians under his control as a tool for promotion and wealth, but he truly cared about and cared for them, and even did not hesitate to personally lead the three soldiers.
Hundreds of warriors risked their lives to attack Yu Du's army, which was dozens of times their size, in order to save tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Guangnian City.
The more she saw and heard, the more curious Zhang Ning became about Wen Yuan, so she decided on a whim to use the magic she learned from "The Art of Taiping" on the moonlit night of the Mid-Autumn Festival to test Wen Yuan's intentions.
When Zhang Ning thought about it, if he saw a demon bewitching the people, he would usually order the arrest of the demon, and the government would severely punish the people who followed the demon. However, Wen Yuan did not send troops to conduct a large-scale search and treat the people after he had performed illusions on his own.
The blindly obedient people also allowed them to disperse freely. Zhang Ning saw all this clearly and was heartbroken by Wen Yuan's magnanimity.
What happened later was a coincidence. Zhang Ning, who returned to his hometown, had already visited the former residence of Guangzong's adoptive father, the bloody battle in Xiaquyang, the third uncle Zhang Bao, and the burial place of one hundred thousand Yellow Turban soldiers. How could he not go there? And when he arrived at Xiaquyang,
What she saw and heard made Zhang Ning admire Wen Yuan even more. Even she didn't know that a hint of girlish feelings had sprouted and taken root in her heart.
Perhaps it was destined by God that Wen Yuan passed by Xia Quyang and met Zhang Ning again here. Moreover, Wen Yuan's act of personally paying homage to the Yellow Turban was coincidentally seen by Zhang Ning, and he was very interested in Wen Yuan.
Good feelings arose spontaneously.
For such a hero who sincerely serves the people, even if he is now a court official, Ning'er can't bear to have a trace of smoke.
And just now, Wen Yuan called her husband and Ning'er, which made her feel very shy, but she couldn't help but be happy.
Recalling the strong and powerful chest and the intoxicating masculine aura just now, Zhang Ning felt extremely warm in his heart. The lonely soul that had been wandering for several years seemed to have finally found a safe haven, and he was reluctant to leave.
How could Wen Yuan have thought of so much? The Mid-Autumn Moonlight Night made him feel the loneliness in his heart, and he hoped to find someone to talk to. But at this moment, Ning'er walked into his sight, and every time he looked back, he looked at the same secretly.
My own Zhang Ning was also very happy.
Looking at each other like this all the way, feelings secretly arose, and the group soon arrived at Xiaquyang City.
After some understanding, Wen Yuan had a preliminary understanding of Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao.
Both of them had led troops, and at most they had more than 10,000 Yellow Turban troops under their command. Both of them were loyal to each other. Pei Yuanshao was a little smarter, while Zhou Cang was outstanding in martial arts and had extraordinary physical strength. After returning to Xiaquyang, Wen Yuan immediately
He appointed Pei Yuanshao as the auxiliary captain and became a subordinate general under Zhang Nan, commanding a thousand auxiliary troops in Quyang.
He appointed Zhou Cang as the captain in front of the tent, and accompanied Wenyuan's horse in front of and behind him, and together with Zhang Yu commanded three hundred horsemen.
Along the way, the two of them had already seen the prowess of Wen Yuan's sergeants, not to mention the three hundred horsemen who were definitely a tiger and wolf division that no one would dare to compete with, and the more than two thousand soldiers and auxiliaries under Zhang Nan's command.
, are also rare elites. If they were to face the Yellow Turban Army led by the two of them before, these two thousand soldiers alone would be enough to fight against 20,000 people!
The two of them were in awe, and originally wanted to start from the bottom, but when they saw that they were entrusted with important tasks just after joining Wenyuan's account, they couldn't help but burst into tears of gratitude, and had no objections.
Returning to Xiaquyang, how could Wen Yuan not visit this place before going there? Wen Yuan first asked Zhang Nan to arrange accommodation for Zhang Ning, Zhou Cang and others, and then held a banquet for the labor force. The next day, accompanied by Zhang Nan, he inspected Xiaquyang
land, military camps, mines, workshops and other places.
Ning'er was arranged to live in the county magistrate's house by Wen Yuan. She was worried all night. Seeing Wen Yuan's future overnight, she was glad that this man was indeed a gentleman. At the same time, she felt a little sad. She didn't fall asleep until dawn.
And Wen Yuan was not without this intention. He stood outside Ning'er's room in the middle of the night and hesitated for a long time. He returned to his place like a deflated ball and slapped himself twice before going to sleep.
Secretly cursing myself for not living up to expectations.
