New Dream of Red Mansions

Often such people just need to be loyal to the country honestly, no matter which prince is in power, they will not treat them too badly.

The same is true for the Pingyang Hou Mansion. Even though the eldest lady of the Pingyang Hou Mansion married the Fourth Prince, the Pingyang Hou Mansion still never thought of supporting the Fourth Prince.

The fourth prince has been wooing him, Pingyang Hou naturally knows, but the fourth prince is very good at life, his help and request will not cross the line, to put it bluntly, it is because he is his brother-in-law, they are relatives .

Marquis Pingyang naturally wouldn't refuse, her natal family supported her married daughter, if he really refused, I'm afraid his sister would be sad in the fourth prince's mansion.

But this time he was involved in these princely disputes for no reason. If he was the only one in the Pingyang Houfu family, he could fight with the other party. But at this time, there are 15 generals at the border. There are millions of people.

Marquis Pingyang cannot gamble.

Geng Zhongxian's face was pale, and he murmured: "Marshal, we have to think of a way. The soldiers just firmly believe that someone will send food. Although the past few days have been bitter, they are okay. If the news spreads..."

Zhang Shicheng is smarter than Geng Zhongxian. He was fond of conspiracy theories since he was a child, and he became black after reading Xinlian. "Is the fourth prince forcing the marshal to express his opinion?"

Following the normal procedure, the Fourth Prince will of course not be able to see the emperor, but what if the normal procedure is not followed?It is very possible for a prince to meet the emperor, let alone a prince whose biological mother has a high status.

The fourth prince is planning to lead Pingyanghou to believe that he has a way to raise military rations, and then force Pingyanghou to form an alliance with him?

Maybe Marquis Pingyang would still be grateful to the fourth prince afterwards, just look at the fool Geng Zhongxian in front of him.

Marquis Pingyang gave Zhang Shicheng a warning look. There are some things they just need to know, there is no need to say it.

Zhang Shicheng curled his lips. Fortunately, Marquis Pingyang didn't hold much hope in the beginning, "When will you write a letter to Duke Zhen?"

"The letter has been sent out, and it should be in the hands of Lord Zhen Guo by now. Success or failure depends on this action." Because it was temporarily letting go of the matter in his heart, Xia Yuntian put his eyes on Xiaobing and asked: " You said someone saved you on the way?"

Xiao Bing replied respectfully: "Yes, Marshal, they heard that the subordinate is under the command of the Marshal, so they brought the subordinate all the way north, and entrusted the subordinate to deliver this letter to the Marshal outside the barracks. They said that their master and The marshal's family has some fate."

Zhang Shicheng raised his eyebrows, bit off the black and white steamed bun in his hand, and said "Oh", "Fate, what fate?"

Xiaobing shook his head blankly, took out the letter from his arms and handed it to Xia Yuntian.

In her previous life, Xiyan didn't learn brush calligraphy very much, but her pen calligraphy was ostentatious and majestic. In this life, she practiced brush calligraphy under the guidance of Wang Zifei, and Wang Zifei frowned slightly when she brushed.

Wang Zifei felt that his daughter's handwriting was too ostentatious, with sharp edges and corners. If he was a man, others would praise his good temperament, but when it was placed on a woman, he seemed too stubborn and unpleasant.

Whether Wang Zifeicheng admits it or not, most people still like women with a gentle temperament.

So it was the second time that Wang Zifei disregarded his wife's objection and personally taught his daughter to write brush characters, making sure that her characters were rounder.

Therefore, Wang Xiyan learned the best hairpin lower case, because this can make her characters look more feminine.

Now the letter Xia Yuntian received was written in Zanhua Xiaokai. Seeing the words on it, Xia Yuntian raised his eyebrows slightly.

Geng Zhongxian directly asked to back down, but Zhang Shicheng continued to sit aside and eat, which was an eyesore.

Everyone can see that this is a letter written by a woman, and the marshal's suitor is too powerful, just sending love letters from thousands of miles away?

Xia Yuntian opened the letter, his pupils shrank slightly, and they grew up together. Zhang Shicheng, who knew what the other party was thinking even if he just turned his head, immediately sensed the situation, and looked at Xia Yuntian with piercing eyes.

Xia Yuntian briefly read the letter, and then read it carefully.He asked the soldier who was still standing below, "Where are those people?"

"Back to Marshal, it's just outside the barracks, Wuling dare not let him go."

Xia Yuntian looked at him carefully, nodded, and said without much expression on his face: "You did a good job this time, so you can transfer to my side as a personal guard, and stay by my side from now on."

Looking at Zhang Shicheng, whose eyes widened slightly, he said, "General Zhang, please go pick them up yourself and bring them directly to my tent."

Zhang Shicheng became serious in an instant, "Yes, the last general will go here!"

While rushing out quickly, I complained in my heart, I don't know who sent the letter, this time I plan to contact in the name of a girl?Aw, who would believe such a thing, but it is indeed a good excuse.Who would have thought of this?

Manager Zhuang only brought two people over. They stood outside the barracks and almost froze together, looking into the barracks with slightly anxious eyes.

In fact, Guanshi Zhuang didn't want to contact Xia Yuntian personally. Although the talents left by Wang Zifei are almost gone, the servants he brought with him back then have more or less learned some skills, and they know some things that others don't. It is fast and safe to send letters to Xia Yuntian through those channels.

It's just that I didn't expect that the channel leading to this place seemed to be cut off by someone, and there were still people guarding the road. If it weren't for the fact that one of the two people with him was doing some business on this line, I'm afraid it would be impossible to come here in person. Can't get to this place.

Manager Zhuang's face turned pale, and he felt a little regretful, whether it was right to drag the young lady and the young master into these fights in order to repay his kindness.

Before he had time to think about it, a 23-year-old young man came out from inside. The man nodded at the manager of the village, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency is the hero who saved Wu Qinwei, right? Sure enough, it is better to be famous than to meet each other. Heroes please come inside, our marshal wants Thank you personally, this Wu Qinwei is the new favorite of our marshal."

Guanshi Zhuang and the two people behind him were stunned. Others didn't know, so don't the three of them know?When did Goudan change from a messenger to a personal guard?Still a new favorite.

However, Manager Zhuang followed Wang Zifei, who had never seen any person or experienced any situation, so he immediately gave in a few times and followed Zhang Shicheng in.

As soon as Guanshi Zhuang entered the big tent, he felt a wave of pressure running over him.

Manager Zhuang trembled, and immediately raised his eyes to look at Pingyanghou. Seeing Pingyanghou's young face, he felt a little complicated.

Pingyanghou and the old Pingyanghou look very similar, but no matter how similar they are, the other party is just a teenager.

Manager Zhuang couldn't help complaining, it would be great if Marquis Pingyang got married and had children earlier, maybe his daughter wouldn't have to be involved.As long as you find a way to help the Pingyang Hou Mansion in the capital, it should be fine, right?

Seeing his complicated expression, Xia Yuntian breathed a sigh of relief.

Xia Yuncai would find it strange that the other party made such an important decision, if there was nothing wrong with it.

"I don't know what to call Mr.

Manager Zhuang glanced at Zhang Shicheng.

Xia Yuntian smiled and said: "General Zhang is a trustworthy person."

That's right, with so much food, Xia Yuntian couldn't transport it alone.

Steward Zhuang saluted respectfully: "Marshal can call Laonu Zhuang steward. I believe the marshal has read the girl's letter. I wonder what the marshal's rules are?"

Xia Yuntian lowered his head, but kept observing the other person's expression carefully from the corners of his eyes, and said: "Actually, I have already written to a senior uncle in the capital. He has the right to ask to see the Holy Majesty. I believe the Holy Majesty will know the situation here soon."

Manager Zhuang's eyes lit up, and he breathed a sigh of relief. It would be great if the girl didn't have to get involved. Manager Zhuang had a heavy responsibility, so he inevitably asked, "I wonder which company the marshal entrusted? Do you want to be old?" Slave going back to help you inquire about it?"

Xia Yuntian also wanted to try him, so he said with a smile: "It's the residence of Lord Zhen Guo. Lord Zhen Guo guarded the border with my grandfather in the early years, and the two families are family friends."

Unexpectedly, Guanshi Zhuang's face changed slightly.

Xia Yuntian squinted his eyes, "But what's wrong?"

Since there is no escape, why bother to show embarrassment to make the other party dislike it?Steward Zhuang tightened his hands, and said seriously: "The Marshal may not know at the border. The Duke of Zhen passed away half a month ago. At that time, the old slave was rushing to the border, and he only listened to it. How is the relationship between the Duke and the Prince?"

Xia Yuntian and Zhang Shicheng looked at each other, and their hearts sank at the same time.

The current Marquis of Pingyang is him, and he is only relying on the friendship of the older generation, but what kind of friendship can he have with the son of Duke Zhen who is older than him?

Even if there is friendship, the prince of Zhen Guo may not see the emperor.

In order to prevent the news from leaking, Xia Yuntian and Zhang Shilai sent out two teams. The two teams did not know each other's news or their respective identities, so the ones sent to the fourth prince's side would not spread the news. Back to the news of the Duke of Zhen.

Xia Yuntian couldn't make up his mind right away, and asked his personal guards to take the three of them down to eat and have a rest. Zhang Shicheng almost immediately jumped in front of him, "Who is this manager Zhuang? I think he doesn't seem to be very willing." To help you, but as if I had to help you."

Believe in Guanshi Zhuang, his expression is not obvious, that is, he has struggled a little bit in his heart, but Zhang Shicheng, who has watched over the eyes of all kinds of people since he was a child, can see it at a glance.

Xia Yuntian nodded, "His master wants to repay his kindness, he probably doesn't want his master to be involved in such a thing." Xia Yuntian knocked on the table and said: "If there is really no other way, maybe this is really our way of life .”

Zhang Shicheng narrowed his eyes slightly, "Who is he? He is so powerful, can he produce so much food at once?"

Xia Yuntian hesitated for half a second, then handed the letter to the other party, and solemnly instructed: "This matter must not be spread, even General Geng."

Zhang Shicheng looked at him suspiciously. It was really serious. When he opened the letter, Zhang Shicheng's face became bright. After he finished, he sighed: "It's really a woman who doesn't give way to her eyebrows. She is bold enough, heroic enough, loyal enough, enough... ..."

"Okay," Xia Yuntian interrupted him, "Now we can only trust him, but it seems that we have nothing to be calculated by the other party now, not to mention, only our two families knew what happened back then, even the prince Teng doesn't even know."

Zhang Shicheng's expression brightened immediately, "Speaking of Wang Ziteng, I remember that he should be patrolling here soon, right?"
