I’m The King Chapter 334: : City Gate
Looking at the majestic city wall of Liaoxi City in front of him, Gao Yuan couldn't help feeling filled with emotion. This is the fourth time he has come to Liaoxi City. Every time he comes, his identity changes. For the first time, he is a little Bing Cao, who followed Lu Hong to pay tribute to Zhang Shouyue, was purely here to make soy sauce and see the world. The second time he came, he was already a Fufeng county captain. Although he was still a small official, due to economic reasons, he already had some status in Zhang Shouyue's heart. The third time, although he was still a county captain, But I already have a powerful force in my hands, and I have shown my strength in Liaoxi for the first time, and I have become famous because of Ye Jinger's words, but at that time, many people thought that after I left Liaoxi this time, I must go With no return, he was about to die on the front line of Yuyang. Even Zhang Shouyue only said that he would talk about the future after he came back.
This is the fourth time. However, he returned to Liaoxi as General Zhengdong. General Zhengdong was formed by the imperial court's standing army. Although he did not have a fief, he could be compared with Zhang Shouyue in terms of status. I'm afraid that even Zhang Shouyue, who admired him very much at the beginning, would never have imagined that it took him two years to complete his journey of decades. Of course, compared with Zhang Shouyue, he was much worse than Zhang Shouyue, because Zhang Shouyue Keeping the contract has a county that belongs to its own territory.
Thinking of this, Gao Yuan couldn't help turning his head and looking to the north. Sun Xiao and the others should have arrived at Jishi Mountain by now. Let's start from Jishi Mountain to build their own territory.
The gate of Liaoxi City was wide open, Zhang Shubao was full of spring breeze, and led the civil and military officials of Liaoxi County to welcome out of the city gate. Behind him, besides Lu Hong, Huang Desheng and other generals, were company commander Shi Pengbin, Sima Wu Yi They all came out to welcome them. Looking at the lineup, a smile appeared on the corner of Gao Yuan's mouth. It seemed that Zhang Shubao already had the upper hand in Liaoxi County.
Gao Yuan got off his horse. At the same time, Zhang Shubao also opened his hands, and greeted him with a loud smile, "Brother Gao Yuan, I don't see you in a day, it's like three autumns, I miss you so much."
The two hugged each other heavily, and hit each other's backs with their fists, as if they hadn't seen each other for many years, but in fact, after Gao Yuan returned from a detour through the grassland. The two had an in-depth talk all night in the Niulanshan camp, and the joy of the two of them at this time was more for the people behind Zhang Shubao to see.
Look, this is my great help, Zhang Shubao is not afraid to let those who are still a bit vacillating in Liaoxi City see his deep friendship with Gao Yuan, this is showing off, deterring, and even more seductive.
Gao Yuan today is no longer the little county lieutenant he used to be, but General Zhengdong appointed by the imperial court. Founding the government and building teeth, there are nearly 10,000 elite soldiers and strong generals under his command. Even Liaoxi is nothing more than that.
Gao Yuan whispered a few words of greeting with Zhang Shubao, then turned around and walked towards Lu Hong. Bending down, "Uncle, are you okay? Is aunt okay?"
Lu Hong laughed so hard that he couldn't even close his mouth, Gao Yuan gave him enough face. "Okay, everything is fine! Your aunt wants to pick you up, and she said that this time, no matter what, she must let you go home for a meal!"
"Auntie's meal. I grew up eating, and I still have a lingering fragrance on my lips! Only this time, I'm afraid I won't be able to spare the time!" Gao Yuan smiled apologetically, "And I have to bother when I come here this time. Uncle and aunt are going on a long trip with me!"
Lu Hong naturally knew what Gao Yuan said, "No problem, no problem, this is what I should do!" At this point, his eyes turned red, and he said: "My brother Gao has a spirit under the nine springs. , Seeing that you are promising now, and you are about to marry a wife and have children, I don't know how happy you are!"
"If it wasn't for my uncle to take care of me, why would my nephew be here today?" Gao Yuan took a step and supported Lu Hong, "Brother, do you have a letter?"
"Your eldest brother was recommended by everyone in Li, and now he is an official in the Qin State." Lu Hong turned his grief into joy, "I wrote a letter a few days ago and said it very well, and now I am in the newly established Shannan County of the Qin State. Be Sima."
Hearing about Shannan County, Gao Yuan's face changed slightly, but it disappeared in an instant, "Brother, as soon as he became an official, he became the Sima of a county. He really is a talent!"
"Hey, compared to you, that's far behind. It's just because of everyone's face. Besides, Shannan County is poor and white, and it's a hard job to deal with refugees and the Huns all day long. "Speaking of his own son, Lu Hong naturally has a bright face. Although he is much worse than Gao Yuan, Lu Chao is an official in the most powerful country in the world, and with a big backer like Li Ru, he is so successful It is something between days.
"The harder it is, the poorer the place is, the easier it is to make achievements!" Gao Yuan said: "With the talent of the eldest brother, he must be like a fish in water."
Lu Hong was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear, he patted Gao Yuan's shoulder repeatedly, "Okay, okay, let's not talk about him, this time I married a wife for you, I hope he will marry me a wife soon home."
Gao Yuan nodded with a smile, turned half of his body sideways, looked at Huang Desheng beside Lu Hong, "Uncle Huang, long time no see."
Huang Desheng smiled and said, "My boy, I was still thinking about it just now. If you call me General Huang, I will have to come to see you, General Zhengdong, as a subordinate. This time Uncle Huang called I think I'm in good health. Well, I'm fine." The scars on his face trembled with his laughter, he poked his hand back and found a person, "Come out to meet people, you've never wanted to General Gao, how come you saw someone, but you dare not see him again!"
When Gao Yuan Dingqing looked at it, it was Huang Desheng's son Huang Zhan. Speaking of which, the two were comrades in arms. behind.
"Brother Huang Zhan!" Gao Yuan smiled and said, "How have you always been?"
"Okay, very good!" Huang Zhan was still somewhat restrained.
"This kid fought a battle with you, and now he has grown a lot. Among other things, I, as an old man, would be willing to bow down to this skill of the horse. Gao Yuan, speaking of it, I really thank you Ah. If you hadn’t taken him out, this kid would still be watching the sky from a well!”
"Uncle Huang is serious. Brother Huang Zhan is talented and willing to endure hardships and stand hard work. A person like him can shine wherever he is thrown. In the future, brother Huang Zhan will definitely have a better future than Uncle Huang!"
"I'll borrow your good words, I'll borrow your good words!" Huang Desheng laughed loudly.
Zhang Shubao walked over with a smile, "Okay, okay, my father is still in the mansion waiting to welcome General Gao, we can't just gossip here, this talk will last for a few days and nights How can we finish talking, let's go, let's go, the days will be long, our task today is how to get Gao Yuan drunk?"
Everyone responded with a bang, turned around and got on their horses one after another. Just as they were about to enter the city, several fast horses came flying in. Seeing the people coming, Gao Yuan couldn't help being startled, not only Gao Yuan, Zhang Shubao and others were all surprised However, for a while, there was silence in front of the city gate.
It turned out that Zhang Junbao and his servants came here on flying horses.
"The big guys came quite neatly!" Stopping the horse, Zhang Junbao glanced at the crowd at the gate of the city with a half-smile. A little embarrassed, especially Changshi Pengbin and Sima Wuyi, their faces were flushed and they bowed their heads in silence.
Fortunately, Zhang Junbao only lightly ridiculed everyone, then turned around and looked at Gao Yuan with a smile on his face, "General Gao, I'm sorry, I was caught up in some trivial matters just now, so I came a step late. Don’t blame General Gao, don’t blame!”
"Where is there!" Gao Yuan clasped his fists in return, "How dare you bother the young master, Gao Yuan is flattered!" Looking at the smiling Zhang Junbao, a warning sign suddenly appeared in Gao Yuan's heart, and he had clearly supported Zhang Shubao. However, the boss of the Zhang family still looks like he doesn't care about it. If something abnormal happens, there must be a demon. If this person really has such a city, I will underestimate him. It seems that I have to be careful.
"Brother, General Gao's visit to western Liaoning is a top priority today. I don't know why my elder brother was caught up in something, but he came late to meet General Gao. Is there anything more important than General Gao's arrival in western Liaoning? "Zhang Shubao laughed, "I'm afraid it's because the eldest brother is upset!"
Hearing Zhang Shubao's sarcasm, other officials of Liaoxi County reined in and took a step back in unison.
"Second brother is still so sharp-tongued, it wasn't like this before!" Zhang Junbao smiled; "You don't know the price of firewood and rice if you are not in charge. In the huge land of Liaoxi City, the daily income and expenditure, food and military expenses, which one is not right? It's frustrating, I reconciled with a few masters today, and I forgot the time for a moment, didn't I come here on a flying horse if I didn't think about it?"
He turned around and looked at Gao Yuan: "General Gao is also the head of the family, should he know such suffering?"
Gao Yuan smiled ~IndoMTL.com~ but his eyes sparkled, "Yes, yes, it doesn't matter if it's a family, a city, or a country, as soon as the door is opened, it's all about firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea. This matter is not peaceful. It is unavoidable that the house is restless, people's hearts are fluctuating, and the eldest son has a heart."
While speaking, he glanced at Zhang Shubao out of the corner of his eye. It seems that although Zhang Shubao is very powerful in the army, the political affairs in western Liaoning are still in the hands of Zhang Junbao. Zhang Shouyue is very interesting. Let the two sons take charge of the army , one holding power, it seems to let go and let the two of them compete.
A few words left Zhang Shubao speechless, Zhang Junbao triumphantly stretched out his hand to Gao Yuan, "General Gao, my father has already set up a banquet in the government office to welcome the general, General Gao please move!"
Gao Yuan nodded slightly, and rode the horse slowly. Zhang Junbao rode the horse to Gao Yuan's side naturally, slightly missing the position of the horse's head. But on the street, with so many officials behind him, he couldn't go forward and drive his elder brother away. For a while, he was so angry that he couldn't speak.
The faces of the people in western Liaoning behind them were all different. This was the first time that the two brothers of the Zhang family put their fight on the bright side. It's just that if the eldest son does it like this, is it useful? In the eyes of the generals and officials in western Liaoning, the actions of the eldest son today are more to make the second son feel disgusted! (To be continued..)
