Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 1466 There is love in the world, don't lose and don't forget

When Zu Qing left, he walked slowly and heavily, holding the wooden box containing Wang An's head in his hand.

Zhang Jack looked at the back. Although he couldn't see it, he could imagine that it should be a distorted face. However, he didn't have much pleasure in his scheme. What he had was the pressure of being unable to dispatch and the choice of Zu Qing. Puzzled, curious.

He couldn't understand why Zu Qing, a remnant of the Xing family who was against the family in the southern country, was so obsessed with the Jin country in Nantou?If only in terms of kindness and righteousness, can't the Master Shihu treat him profoundly?Even if Jie is weak and Jin is strong now, why is this kid determined to be treated fairly after joining Jin?
Thinking hard to no avail, Zhang Jack could only guess that the Zu family might still have connections in the Southern Kingdom. Once Zu Qing returned to the Southern Kingdom with the merit of killing Jie, there would be someone to speak out for him.

As for whether this is the case, Zhang Jack can't be sure, he just feels that the legacy of these ancestors with the old surname is really enviable.On the other hand, their Zhang family, even though he danced with his own strength and became a powerful and powerful family with deep roots in Jie country, he still didn't have the calmness of allowing the south and the north.In his whole life, he was destined to be bound together with the country of Jie, living and dying together.

Finally regaining control of Dongtai from Zu Qing, Zhang Jackal also breathed a sigh of relief.Now the master's life is in his hands, which makes many places that were not smooth before smooth, such as Zhang Ju in Fuliu City.

Although Zhang Ju had tens of thousands of troops, most of the Youzhou Army under his command were registered soldiers and followers of Hu Zhongyi. He could refuse to obey Zhang Jackal's orders, but he still could not ignore the authority of the Lord.After this strong minister backlash, although Shi Hu's deterrence has fallen to the bottom, it still has a strong appeal and deterrence among ordinary soldiers.

Zhang Jie had doubts in his heart. The reason why Zhang Ju dared to blatantly resist the king's order of Xindu should be that Zu Qing secretly informed Zhang Ju that the Lord's life and death were not controlled by Zhang Jie, which meant that Zhang Jie had no effective means to restrain him at all.

But now that the lord has made the move, Zhang Jackal can take certain tough measures against Zhang Ju, without fearing that the two sides will turn against each other and break up.If Zhang Ju really dared to swing his weapon inside or lead his troops to the west, at this critical moment, Zhang Jack would not rule out returning to the political leader again, and the latter would come forward to clean up the mess again.

In the final analysis, this family business and national property still belong to the Shi family. No matter how much Shi Hu held grudges against him, he still had to bow his head to reality in the end, and tried his best to survive in order to preserve the Shi family lineage.

But in the end, Zhang Jack still didn't choose to open the Dongtai ban to greet Shi Hu's daily life. He didn't plan to see Shi Hu again until the moment of real life and death. After all, this master is a huge shadow covering most of his life.

Because not long after seizing the control of Dongtai, Zhang Jack first issued an ultimatum to Fuliucheng Zhang Ju with harsh words, and then devoted himself to the busy work of lobbying the city's dignitaries and raising city defense forces.

As for Zu Qing, Zhang Jack still hadn't made up his mind to eradicate him completely.Although the rift between each other has deepened, in the eyes of outsiders, they, Weng and his son-in-law, are still as close as one.Once he kills Zu Qing, it means that his own power will be unstable, and those dignitaries who are still delusional about being able to protect themselves will not and will not dare to hand over the trilogy to Zhang Ji.

Zu Qing took the Jie general Wang An's head and left, instead of going back to the West Hall to stay overnight, but returned to the temporary residence near the East Terrace.As soon as he stepped into the door, a mouthful of uncontrollable blood spewed out of his mouth.

"How could Aaron be like this?"

Seeing this scene, all the generals who stayed inside the house came up one after another and supported him with a swinging body.

"Wang An is dead..."

Zu Qing's tone was heavy, he pushed away the crowd, stepped into the main hall and placed the wooden box squarely on the desk, he knelt down in front of him, bit his finger and sprinkled his blood in pursuit of this rare Hu Zhong righteous man, and made the dementia The nervous cousin led into the hall, and thanked and said goodbye to the savior.

When Zu Daozhong saw the bloody head, he yelled loudly in fright, and did not want to approach it. The head was buried deep in the arms of the servant, and he dared not look.Seeing this, Zu Qing no longer forced him, and ordered his cousin to be taken out.Soon, Zu Daozhong's unique and honest laughter sounded again from the corridor, it seemed that he turned his head and forgot the horrible scene.

Hearing his cousin's laughter, Zu Qing's expression became more complicated.From the bottom of his heart, he envied this cousin who was less than melancholy, and it was difficult for him to have that kind of carefree state of mind in his life.

All the generals of Zu's family poured into the hall, they didn't ask any questions, they just looked at the Lord Lang solemnly.

"Go to Dongtai, get back Wang An's body, and collect it in the temple for burial."

Zu Qing took out his cavalry general's seal and handed it to the family general, and then ordered.

With a single careless move, he lost everything, Zu Qing knew that this time he was out of greed, hoping to take care of everything with a small amount.But in fact, with such a backward person like him, how can he compare with Zhang Jackal who has been in the middle school for a long time. Even when Shi Hu was still in power, he couldn't eradicate Zhang Jackal's power in one fell swoop.

Previously, because the Capricorn Lord was still in his hands, Zhang Jack still had scruples about him, but now his most important bargaining chip is gone. Although Zhang Jack hasn't killed him yet, it's just because he is worried about human feelings. When Zhang Jackal really swung the butcher knife, he was powerless to resist.

Although Zhang Hao didn't directly state the position of the West Palace, it was obvious that he would not allow Zu Qing to be in that position again.If we continue to fight at this moment, there will be no good results.Zhang Jack was able to forcibly kill Wang An in Dongtai, and it is not difficult to kill him in West Palace.

Right now, rushing to break with Zhang Jackal is the next best thing to do.He even needs to take the initiative to maintain the illusion of being intimate with Zhang Jackal, so as to seek further development assistance from those in the city who still don't know the truth.

"Let's step back first."

Zu Qing waved his hand and asked the generals to withdraw, while he sat in the hall, seriously thinking about his strengths and weaknesses, and what else he could do.

If he sits withered until night, there will be a family in the middle who will take Wang An's body back. Dongtai has not made any trouble. Apparently, Zhang Jackal wants to use this to convey that he does not intend to formally tear his face apart. The embarrassing relationship between the two parties will still continue. keep it up.

After nightfall, Zu Qing had a small meal, then stood up abruptly and went straight to the residence of his newly married wife.

Hearing the door open, the haunted figure finally appeared at the door, but Mrs. A-Dong, who was kneeling behind the door, could not see the intimacy and joy of Mr. Ruyi in the past.Her frail body trembled violently, she walked forward on her knees tremblingly and put her forehead on Zu Qing's instep, and whispered in a sobbing voice: "Since I have entered the family of Zu's family, I dare not ask for abandonment in life, but only in death..."

Zu Qing originally wanted to kick the lady away with some distaste, but when she looked up and her eyes filled with tears, her heart like a stone trembled suddenly. Reached the shadow of his early years.

After pondering for a while, Zu Qing bent down to help the lady up, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with some blunt movements, and rarely sighed in a gentle tone: "My lady and I are both poor people in this world, but we are always tired. People show pity. The world is so difficult, but fortunately, my wife has pity on me, how can I, I abandon you?"

"My concubine grows cattail grass in this house. If I didn't follow my husband, my father and brother would not even know that there are such clumsy branches in the court...Ah, grandpa told me, husband, husband's heart...I really don't know how to deal with myself, but never I would rather harm Fulang even the slightest, rather than die!"

Lady Adong threw herself into Zu Qing's arms, confiding in a weak tone, tears pouring out uncontrollably.

"My father-in-law is not wrong. I am indeed not a beloved man who can be entrusted to me for life. The Xing family is rebellious. The stink is irresistible, and the past is irretrievable. Only this willpower insists on innocence. I should not expect to live in the world for such a lonesome remnant. Warmth, before the family is restored to innocence, I don't even dare to leave blood to humiliate the world. The lady paid me infatuatedly, but made things difficult for myself... "

"No, no! Since the concubine and her husband have formed an alliance, the clean will be clean together, and the dirty will be dirty together... I, my concubine, are not afraid of death. A woman is narrow-minded and only wants her husband to be alone. For this reason, the world will scold me, even concubines and concubines are not afraid..."

Zu Qing embraced the lady, and when he heard that weak but decisive tone, guilt grew in his heart, and his heart, which had been silent for a long time, finally felt a sense of fulfillment.

This night's whispering can't change anything, but the gap between the newlyweds has gradually disappeared.This harmonious atmosphere also gradually affected some other servants' families, creating a small warm world in this gloomy Xiangguo City.

Not long after the scouts of the Jin army appeared, most of the troops behind them appeared later.The Jie army garrisoned in the outskirts of the city didn't even dare to wait for the army to get close and take a peek, so they hurriedly abandoned the fort and fled back to the city.As these troops fled back, news of the Jin army's attack spread quickly throughout the city.

For a time, the turmoil of human feelings in Xindu City broke the limit.Within one night, dozens or hundreds of heads hung from the gates of the four sides of the city.These were all the people in the city who planned to flee across the city after hearing that the Jin army was coming to attack, and many of them were descendants of powerful and powerful families in Huzhong.In order to maintain the situation in the city, the ferocity that Zhang Jackal showed at this moment went straight to the master Shi Hu: If he didn't have the heart to persevere, he would die.

But these things have nothing to do with Zu Qing who has been emptied.When he really let go of his defenses and accepted the lady in the family, recently he even enjoyed the warm time hidden deep in his memory playing in front of his father's lap when he was young.

However, this warm moment did not last long. The king of the Jin army approached Xindu step by step. Standing on the top of the city, he could clearly see the banners fluttering outside the city, the drums roaring, and the war was about to break out. spared!
Although there are only a few thousand infantry outside the city right now, and more than [-] troops have been assembled in the city, everyone knows that the Jin army has nearly [-] troops stationed in Dongwu City alone. Thousands of infantry are just the vanguard of the Jin army, and the follow-up army will definitely come one after another.

In view of the scattered people in the city, although there are tens of thousands of people, they are like a pan of scattered sand. In order to restore the morale of the city and strengthen the morale of the city guards, Zhang Hao planned to go out of the city and attack for a while before most of the Jin army had assembled outside the city. .Although the outcome is still unpredictable, once most of the Jin army enters here, the Jie army defending the city will have no chance.

This time out of the city to fight, Zhang Jackal planned to sit in the town to supervise the battle in person, in order to defeat the Jin army's edge first.On the eve of the battle, there was a banquet held at the Huguo Temple to maintain peace of mind and at the same time swear that the teacher will win.And Zu Qing, the son-in-law, was also invited.

At the banquet, no matter what Zhang Jackal said, Zu Qing just watched it coldly.He waited until the banquet was over without saying a word.After the banquet, Zhang Jackal led his family to the military camp at the city gate to stay overnight.But when Zu Qing was about to go back with his wife, he was blocked.

"It's hard to predict the outcome of this battle. People in the city are also confused, and you can't go outside the Huguo Temple. Sister-in-law, you are a newcomer, and you will inevitably arouse the envy of the crowd. At this time, it is better to stay in the house for the time being to be safe."

Zhang Chang, who was in charge of guarding the National Temple, came forward to stay with Zu Qing, but seeing the crowd of benefactors behind him, although his tone was still gentle, it was obvious that he didn't mean to ask Zu Qing.

Zu Qing naturally also knew that his feelings were no longer a secret to Zhang and his son, and he was not surprised by the fact that he was under house arrest. After hearing the words, he just smiled and nodded: "It's late at night, and I'm not from the family. Xinke, my uncle doesn’t need to care about daily life anymore. After my father-in-law goes to war, the family affairs and state affairs are all in my uncle’s hands, so I still need to take care of myself.”

The words sounded good, but Zu Qing said it in a tone that was almost teasing, which almost meant that Zhang Jackal's battle this time was very dangerous.Rao Zhang Chang has always been prudent, after hearing this, he couldn't help glaring at Zu Qing, watching him turn around and enter the house, and then left bitterly.

For the residents of Xindu, this night can be described as a very long, tossing and turning sleepless, not only because of the constant sound of war drums in the night, but also because of the anxiety in their hearts.I don't know how many people are watching from the railing, and the cold stars on the sky are flickering, which is even more disturbing.

In the middle of the night, some people couldn't stay up late and fell asleep slowly, but suddenly they fell asleep suddenly with the sound of gold and iron horses.The dream suddenly shattered, and the couch woke me up, and I listened in confusion, only to realize that it was not a dream, and the battle was indeed raging outside the city, and the sound of killing shook the field.

Although a strict curfew has been enforced in the city, no one is allowed to wander in the streets and alleys once nightfall, and even if there is a light in the room, there will be patrolling soldiers rushing fiercely, to put an end to all secret conspiracies in the dark room !

But when they realized that the battle outside the city had begun, a large number of people still rushed out of the houses and gathered in the streets and alleys, looking forward to the fiery night outside the city against the flames of war. Trying hard to distinguish whether the war is good or bad from the messy sound of fighting.

In the Huguo Temple, the atmosphere was also chilling and tense. Many houses were brightly lit, and everyone was sleepless. They were eager to know the outcome of this first battle as soon as possible. Whether you can stick to it is very important!
Zu Qing, who was under house arrest in the Zhang family compound, was also sleepless. Although he did not appear restless and terrified like others, he was standing by the window at this moment, and his fingers holding the window sometimes tightened and sometimes stretched, showing his innermost feelings. It was also not peaceful.

On the contrary, that A-Dong lady is as peaceful inside and outside.She got up from the room, stepped forward slowly, stood on tiptoe and put a wind-resistant cloak on her husband, and then hugged Zu Qing tightly from behind.Zu Qing took the little woman into his arms with his backhand, and his eyes still couldn't leave the night of the war.

The sound of fighting outside the city lasted for nearly half an hour after it started, and then came to an end temporarily. The people who were eagerly waiting in the streets and alleys seemed to be unable to bear this almost dead silence, and shouted loudly to ask how the battle was going. Use this to vent your dissatisfaction.

This chaos didn't last long, and soon a large number of soldiers poured out from the camps in the city and began to drive away the people gathered on the long street, and the streets and alleys were soon cleared.These soldiers were still as brutal as ever, but at this moment, apart from being frightened, the people unexpectedly felt a little peace of mind.

Little people don't know that the war is treacherous and dangerous, they just simply think that it seems that the battle outside the city is going smoothly, otherwise these fierce soldiers should go out of the city to help in the battle, how can they still have the mood to stay in the city to bully the little people.And as long as the city is not broken, there is hope that the current life, although not comfortable, can at least continue.

However, these ordinary people don't know that there are no intersecting civilian alleys and military paths in the city.Even if there were reinforcements on the battlefield outside the city, they would not be able to detect it.

After a little comfort, Xiaomin felt relieved, at least he could sleep peacefully that night.But for people like Zu Qing who really have war experience, even if they are not on the battlefield, they can guess that the battle outside the city is not going well.

Like the beginning of the war, there were actually a few inconspicuous ups and downs in the sound of fighting that lasted for nearly an hour.Ordinary people lack experience, so naturally they can't tell the difference, but Zu Qing has a certain degree of certainty in his heart after hearing it.

In fact, no matter how long the soldiers were, it would be difficult for them to sustain an hour-long high-intensity fight.Especially now that the Capricorn soldiers are distracted, and their physical strength will be doubled in field battles. If Zhang Jackal can really win in one blow, with his prudence, he will definitely not continue to fight wantonly, but withdraw his troops back to the city as soon as possible to publicize the results of the battle.

Moreover, although the Jin army was exhausted from afar, the general situation was locked. The forwards were attacked at night as soon as they arrived on the battlefield.But the fight outside the city just now was by no means the movement that could be caused by the violent attack of the Jie army. It can be imagined that the two sides were indeed fighting fiercely.

There is only one situation that can make the Jin army exhausted from afar and fight fiercely at night, that is, the Jie army who went out to fight in the city is really bad, and it is far from the deterrent force that can suppress the Jin army to hide in the camp and not be able to fight!
Based on all these factors, it can be analyzed that Zhang Jackal suffered a serious setback in the first battle of this night attack.And the outcome of this battle is very important to the country of Jie. Zhang Jackal was unable to get rid of the tiger, so he had to send troops frequently to suppress the Jin army with the advantage of the crowd at home, so that the battle lasted for nearly an hour. fierce battle!
It is also very simple to verify your guess, so let's see if the Jie army will continue to mobilize the city's soldiers in the future.

Sure enough, not long after, there were chaotic sounds of Jia Ge clashing and other soldiers marching in the Huguo Temple.At the same time, Zu Qing was in the house, and he could hear the sound of people coming and going in Zhang's hall not far away. It was obvious that Zhang Chang was frequently meeting people and continuing to raise fighting power for his father.

After such a long night, there were several fighting sounds at dawn, but it was not as violent as it was at the beginning.In the early morning, the city revived again, and a group of knights from the Jie Kingdom passed through the city gate. These knights all carried long bamboo poles, on which were hung the heads of the Jin army, military robes and other trophies. In this way, they boast of force and show the results of victory.

And behind this group of knights, there are thousands of infantry. After the people are led out of their homes by those knights who praised meritorious service and gather on both sides of the road, the infantry behind rush into the crowd and grab them. The strong men and even the women were involuntarily incorporated into the army, and then they were driven to various parts of the city wall as labor labor to help defend the city.

In the afternoon, Zhang Jack hurried back home, his face was full of tiredness and dust.When walking down the corridor, he turned his head to look at Zu Qing who was standing in the distance observing him, made a meaningless gesture, whispered something to Zhang Chang, and then hurried into the room.Half a quarter of an hour later, Zhang Jack changed into a new robe, left the residence in a hurry, surrounded by soldiers, and headed straight for the West Hall.

"Master Wang is majestic, and he really lives up to his name in battle!"

The speculation in my heart about the battle, all the signs have been confirmed, although Zu Qing has been full of expectations for Master Wang, but seeing that Master Wang is not the forward, he can beat the old and cunning Zhang Jack like a helpless beast, Zu Qing Qing had a deeper understanding of Wang Shi's bravery and ability to fight, and at the same time, she couldn't help wondering who the Wang Shi's forward generals outside the city were, or were those famous generals who had already shaken Huayi?
For the next two days, Zu Qing was trapped in Zhang Jie's house and could not go out.And the city defense battle seems to have entered a stalemate period. Except for the intense night battle on the first night, there have been no high-intensity battles since then.

The city has already been strictly controlled by the soldiers, and the residents are not allowed to come within a few feet of the city wall. However, in the area of ​​the city near the city, there are constant streams of arrows, including some passing letters, flying in from outside the city wall.In this way, even if it is still difficult for ordinary people to see the situation of the battle, the decline of the Jie army's defense of the city is becoming more and more difficult to conceal, and it is even impossible to forcibly prevent the soldiers of the Jin army from approaching the city wall and throwing arrows and flying books!
Whether the city is safe or not doesn't affect that Adong lady who is immersed in the sweet home. Right now, her life can be said to have reached a perfect state. Her husband treats her intimately and gently, and he no longer deliberately neglects and alienates her as before.Therefore, in addition to the fixed time to greet Aunt every day, most of the time every day must stay in the dormitory to accompany Fu Lang.

But on this day, when Mrs. A-Dong greeted Amu and returned to her residence, her expression was a bit dazed. As soon as she walked into the room, she shunned all the waiters and walked up to her husband who was sitting upright reading a book. , his face became more dignified.She took out a talisman from her sleeve and pushed it in front of Zu Qing, and said in a solemn tone: "Your husband may dive into the abyss, or fly into the sky, but you must not sidestep the world, waste your time, and let down your ambition. Grandpa The talisman, the concubine has been stolen, and the husband is no longer restricted..."

After Zu Qing heard the words, his body shook suddenly, and when it was verified that the talisman in the lady's hand was real, he couldn't help smiling, he raised his hand to hold the talisman, then held the lady's catkin, and whispered: "A virtuous wife helps me, even though the future is difficult, I can still make it! The family has long been on standby, just waiting for me to return. It's just that the lady may hurt human feelings in the future, but I will definitely..."

Mrs. A-Dong raised her hand to cover her husband's mouth, and shook her head with a gloomy expression: "Your husband doesn't need to say much. I have no regrets if I am lucky enough to enjoy a happy marriage for a while. But those who are less fortunate, dare not make extravagant demands. I If you leave with your husband, brother must be alert, and then it will be difficult for your husband to leave. What's more, after your husband goes to the south, after returning to righteousness, you will be innocent. The concubine is just a remnant of the northern bandits, how can you chase after her , implicating my husband... I only hope that my husband will return to the south safely, that the honor and salary will always be enjoyed, and the blessings will last forever..."

When Zu Qing heard this, he struggled in his heart, and after a while, he raised his arms and hugged the lady tightly into his arms.The lady remained gentle for a while, then pushed Zu Qing away with great determination, just like sending her husband away from the house earlier, she raised her bare hand and carefully smoothed his robe, but the tears couldn't stop flowing Come out: "Heaven pays off those who love, may my husband go here, go here..."

There was a sob, and I couldn't speak.

"The broken body is still waiting for the family, so I can't promise my wife lightly. The lady is very kind, and I will never forget it! If you can survive this catastrophe, after the family affairs are over, we will meet again in the end of the world! If you can't return here to find your wife, then Green death is not buried in the ground! Send your finger as proof, don't lose it and don't forget it!"

After speaking, Zu Qing drew out the accessory blade, cut off the little finger, and put the severed finger in the lady's palm.Seeing this, the lady turned pale, and was about to find silk to bandage her husband's wound, but Zu Qing laughed, pulled out the lady's belt, wrapped it around her bloody hands, and strode away.

　The book was finished in July, and it landed smoothly, so envious.It's so efficient, two and a half books were finished in a blink of an eye, and I had a lot of fun with one book.Attached is "Han Si as an Official" recommended by Zhuo Zhuo. The historical materials are solid and rigorous, which is rare in the industry. If you read it patiently, you will not be disappointed.Also, recently I found a seedling "The Resurgence of the Tang Dynasty" by sweeping the list. The Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms and Southern Han Dynasty started. The perspective of the era is very interesting. It is fun to kill fat and raise young. . .
