From dispatching the cavalry to clearing out the bandits, Gai Jun did not kill anyone. The speed with which he attacked the enemy was evident. He had no interest in the head of the bandit leader. What was so interesting about the bloody head, so he asked his maid to apply medicine to the injured person.
They were bandaged and taken care of carefully. Over there, Gai Yin also counted the number of casualties. Eleven people were killed and more than twenty were injured. Most of the injured were minor injuries. Although he knew that swords have no eyes and it is inevitable, Gai Jun still felt a pang in his heart.
It was uncomfortable. Adding the four people who died when they arrived, there were fifteen people and fifteen families who would have to bear the pain of bereavement. The heartbreaking pain when Chen Ni died was still fresh in his memory.
If there are old people or young children in the family, they will bear the burden and the bodies will be transported back to Dunhuang. "When a bird flies back to its hometown, a fox must have its head on a hill when it dies." What about people? As for the injured, there are also generous gifts.
After a great battle, everyone's stomachs were empty, but the dead bodies were everywhere outside, and the fishy smell was so high that they couldn't eat anything. After a short rest, the slaves began to carry the corpses, clearing a path, and then the carriages and horses slowly left the battlefield and headed towards
Go northwest.
There were no more dangers along the way, which was reasonable. The convoy had many guards, well-equipped equipment, and had just killed the largest bandit within hundreds of miles. Who dared to mess with their thoughts?
Entering Hanyang territory, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but the guards quickly became nervous again. People in Liangzhou heard that it was Gai Ying's wedding team, and regardless of age or sex, they rushed to watch the fun. Anyone who dared to escape
When he arrived at the motorcade, he almost pulled Gai Jun off his horse to take a closer look, but the guards couldn't help but become wary.
Seeing Gai Jun looking a little embarrassed, Xu You joked: "I heard that Xizhou is sparsely populated, and it seems that this statement is completely false."
Everyone laughed after hearing this.
Not to mention them, even Gai Jun himself was quite surprised. He did not expect that he had such a great influence in Liangzhou. In fact, he was underestimating himself. He is undoubtedly the most popular person in Liangzhou in recent years. According to rumors,
, He shot a tiger to save his father, showed his filial piety, was known as brave, offered a plan to destroy locusts, was known for his wisdom, and was known as benevolent. He was not afraid of power and escorted Cai Yong to Shuo Fang. He was brave and righteous. He was entrusted by his friends to help the corpse return home. In the name of showing trust, he was moral.
The level is perfect, with no flaws to be found. The people of Liangzhou are sincerely proud to have such a character in their hometown, and they want to see it with their own eyes.
The convoy finally drove into the conspicuous relatives on the north bank of the Weishui River, just across the river from Hebei County, where his father ruled. When the county magistrate learned that the prefect's son had arrived, he led a group of officials out of the city to greet him in person. Gai Jun talked to them for a few words, and then went to find
Rest in a building.
Gai Xun and Ma Zhao rushed to show their relatives before the sun set. When Gai Jun saw his parents who had been separated for three years, he suddenly knelt down and said, "My son is unfilial and failed to... greet his parents... Damn it... Damn it..." Halfway through,
Already choked with sobs.
Ma Zhao held his head and cried with joy.
Gai Xun was full of emotion. His son was several inches shorter than him when he left. Now he is seven feet seven inches tall, two inches taller than him. His handsome appearance reveals the toughness of the Hexi people, and he looks more and more like him. He said: "Jinnu
What I have done in the past few years has greatly improved my reputation in Dunhuang. I am very pleased." He turned his eyes and cupped his hands towards Cai Yong and said, "I met Cai Yilang at Brother Ma's residence when I was promoted to be a filial and honest person. I don't know.
Do you remember Cai Yilang?"
Cai Yong smiled and said in return: "Brother Gai is famous and has outstanding appearance. How can we forget it?"
Almost at the same time, Gai Xun and his wife looked at Cai Wan, who was standing shyly beside Cai Yong. Gai Xun sighed: "Jin Nu is so blessed by God that he can marry such a beautiful woman!"
Cai Yong said: "I am very happy to have Ziying as my son-in-law."
The two fathers looked at each other and smiled.
Ma Zhao calmed down his emotions a little, left his son with tears streaming down his face, and took Cai Wan's hand. He loved it no matter how much he looked at it, and smiled so much that the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes deepened.
"I've met my uncle and aunt."
Ma Zhao said displeasedly: "Although you two haven't paid a visit to the church, you have also performed a personal greeting ceremony. Please change your titles quickly."
Cai Wan endured the shame and bowed again: "I have met uncle and aunt."
Ma Zhao then helped Cai Wan up with satisfaction, but Gai Liao, who was ignored, kept pouting. Gai Jun was also left out. Seeing that his mother cared about her daughter-in-law and ignored her son, she introduced Zang Hong, Xu You, and Er to his father.
Everyone paid homage in the same manner as a son or nephew. The former was about the same age as Gai Jun, so Gai Xun could afford it, but the latter was over thirty and a well-known figure in Kyoto. How could Gai Xun dare to let him pay homage without even paying homage to him?
After a few polite words, Gai Xun asked, "Have you had a safe journey?"
Gai Jun shook his head and told the truth. Gai Xun was furious. If he hadn't heard that the bandit leader had been crowned, he would have led his troops to Youfufeng and strangled the bandit, even if he lost his official position for it.
Gai Jun turned around to summon the three brothers Gai Yin and said to his father: "These two are Bo Si's sworn brothers. One is Guan Yu, courtesy name Yunchang, from Hedong. The other is Bao Chu, courtesy name Wencai, from Jingzhao. This time, thanks to
They were able to defeat the thieves."
Gai Yin, Guan Yu, and Bao Chu were different in appearance from ordinary people. They were majestic and mighty. Wherever they stood, their momentum was overwhelming.
Cai Yong opened his mouth and praised: "These three are brave and courageous, just like Fan Kuai."
"What Cai Yilang said must be true."
"Meet the ancestors."
"Greetings to Mr. Gaifu."
Gai Yin was raised by Gai Xun, so there is no need to be polite to him. When he called Guan, Bao said: "You two strong men don't need to be polite."
Gaixun and his wife arrived in a hurry, and before they had eaten, they organized a banquet in the hotel. There was plenty of food, but a little less wine. The county government knew what was going on, and soon sent a large amount of fine wine. Everyone exchanged glasses and drank to their heart's content.
It was refreshing. It was rare for Gai Jun not to drink too much. He still had many things to say to his father, so he took the time to go out with Gai Xun.
The sun was setting and the summer heat was fading. The father and son were strolling in the courtyard of the museum.
"I heard that Amei said that my father intends to choose Yan Shibo's second son as his son-in-law?"
"It must be that Xiao He'er doesn't want to ask you to plead for mercy?" Gai Xun said with a smile: "Since ancient times, parents' orders and matchmaker's words have been given. What does she want to do?"
Gai Jun gritted his teeth and said, "Xiao He'er is only fourteen, so he's still young. Let's talk about it in a few years."
Gai Xun looked at him again and said nothing.
"Father's holiday yet?"
Gai Xun nodded and said, "I'm about to take a hundred days' leave."
Gai Jun frowned and said: "Dunhuang is three thousand miles away. It will take sixty or seventy days to return home by car. How can we do it in a hundred days?"
Gai Xun explained: "The chief official of a county has important responsibilities for one place, and is no different from other official positions. Once the leave exceeds a hundred days, he will have to leave the official position."
"Then what's the best thing to do?" Gai Jun didn't want his marriage to affect his father's career.
"Don't worry, my father has already thought of it. Your mother will go with you. I will set off alone next month. The horse is twice as fast as the carriage. I will probably get home before you." After saying this, Gai Xun smiled.
"Father……"
Gai Xun scolded with a straight face: "Don't act like a little girl."
"promise."
"I heard that you hide the beauty in the golden house? Is she the girl who leads the child?"
His father asked suddenly, and Gai Jun couldn't react for a long time.
Gai Xun added: "I was told by my in-laws at the banquet."
Gai Jun was stunned. Cai Yong had discovered it when he was in Caijiazhuang, but he never said anything and pretended not to see him. Cai Yong himself had several concubines. Gai Jun thought he didn't care, but he didn't expect to tell Gai Xun silently.
poke out.
Gai Xun continued: "My wife found a woman before she even entered the house. When the in-laws mentioned it, I was so ashamed that I almost crawled into the ground. I don't force you to do what I did to your mother, but you are too ruthless. You...
"
"Son...sigh..." Gai Jun sighed heavily. He was unreasonable in this matter, and it would be useless to argue.
"That's all. You have been highly intelligent since childhood, why do you need me to tell you? I only want to warn you: Your mother and I love Sha Wan'er. Don't let her down in this life."
"I also love Ji Wan'er, how can I let go of her?"
Seeing that his father was noncommittal, Gai Jun smiled bitterly. In the eyes of his father and father-in-law, he might have become a womanizer.);.
