Chapter 62 fourth quarter

In addition, there is an intruder in the family, Mrs. Liu Qi, who is an unstoppable love keeper. He often has to knock on the door or even go over the wall to disturb their married life. He is Zhao Long. After careful treatment by the famous doctor Xing Liang, coupled with the intensive care of Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Liu Qi for more than a year, Zhao Long's body has already recovered.He couldn't go when the front line needed him, but by the time he could go, the front line no longer needed him as a staff officer.He was now in Tokyo merely out of concern and in the hope of getting news of it as soon as possible.And these news often frustrate him and make him very angry.Several times he lost his temper and said that this time he must pack his bags and go back to the Northwest. In the end, he was still governed by the law of inertia, continued to be tortured by bad news, continued to lose his temper, and still stayed in Tokyo indefinitely.

What he expected was victory, but what he got was news of constant defeat.The setback in the first war, the responsibility of cultivating the way of teaching, the appointment of Liu Yanqing, the failure of the surprise attack on Yanjing, the great defeat in the second war, and the shameful deal to take back Yanjing City, etc., no matter in Knowing about it at the time or afterwards made this veteran soldier who had a blood connection with the army feel infinitely disappointed and resentful. Now his anger is focused on Guo Yaoshi. With the forgetfulness of old people, he kept asking this question that could not be answered satisfactorily:

"Why did that eunuch Tong Guan bring this turtle egg named Guo to the capital to meet the officials?" He has never been able to remember the name of this turtle egg surnamed Guo. This name has nothing to do with religion and has nothing to do with soldiers.I couldn't remember his name, so I simply called him Youdan, which is the most contemptuous term for a soldier in their western army.Guo Yaoshi is a surrendered general, and in the eyes of traditional veterans, he is the most despised general.In addition, Zhao Long also guessed Tong Guan's ulterior motives with a feeling of anger.The reason why Tong Guan wants to raise Guo Yaoshi's social status is to attack the prestige of the Western Army and demean the status of the Western Army.He intends to keep Guo Yaoshi in Yanjing and take on the important task of the front line of northern frontier defense, so that the Western Army can be transferred back and demobilized one after another.Zhao Long's conjecture is well-founded.The "Deputy Capital Chief Soldier" who had only been in the planting division for about half a month, as soon as the important event of taking over Yanjing, the Xuanfu Division hurriedly revoked this temporary title, and in the name of preferential treatment, he was allowed to go back to his hometown in the Northwest Hugh.Although Yang Keshi is still in Yanjing, Tong Guan doesn't like him, and he has been included in the list of demobilized generals in a few months.Only Wang Teng made meritorious service in the battle along the Hutuo River, and Zhang Xiaochun, the magistrate of Taiyuan, took a fancy to him. Through the Xuanfu Department, he was repeatedly asked to stay in Hedong and preside over the defense of the Taiyuan Military Region.Obviously, Tong Guan wants to expand and cultivate the Ever Victorious Army as his own capital to compete with the Western Army, and to use it to replace Liu Yanqing, who is really hard to praise.

When Ma Kuo could not give Zhao Long a satisfactory answer, Xing Liang came out and added: "I heard that Guo Yaoshi knelt down and kowtowed to thank Tong Guan after he was worshiped as the Shao Bao of the school inspector, the deputy pacifier of Yanshan Road, and the co-prefect of Yanshan Mansion. Tong Guan helped him up and said, "Shao Bao Now he is a high official of the imperial court who is one with us and sits side by side. Why do you have to give such a big gift?" Guo Yaoshi replied gratefully: "Xuanxiang is the reborn parent of the pharmacist. The only thing the pharmacist knows is to worship his father , I don’t know anything else.” Tong Guan was so happy that a smile burst out from his bone marrow.”

"Can eunuchs give birth to turtle eggs? I haven't seen this before, so I need to consult the imperial physician." Zhao Long thought of a vicious sentence to vent his anger. "The world is so big, there are no surprises," Xing Liang responded solemnly with a naturalistic sense of humor, "Tong Guan still has two sons, and how can he know that he can't give birth to a turtle egg?" This somewhat exaggerated gossip was not confirmed by a well-informed source, Liu Kai. Tokyo people have always been good at catching rumors and adding oil and sauce.It may be because they took it for granted that Guo Yaoshi was so unbearable.Liu Kai had dealt with Guo Yaoshi before, and Guo Yaoshi's surprise attack was supported by Liu Kai.In the process of preparing to attack Yan, I also thought that he was thoughtful, bold and careful, and he was a general.But at the same time, I also feel that he has a city in his chest, and he refuses to express his opinion casually on everything, and his intentions are difficult to detect.Liu Zhu told a true story: after the official family gave Guo Yaoshi two large gold basins for storing ice, he took them back to the lower place, summoned his companions who came to Beijing with him, and first said something about the official Everyone thinks deeply about their virtues, if they don't repay, pigs and dogs are not as good as them.Then he made a generous statement: I, Guo, received a generous gift from the government today, and it was all the power of the kings. All the kings deserve this reward. What is the contribution of Guo?He cut open the golden basin on the spot and distributed it to his subordinates one by one, but he took nothing for himself.

From the perspective of feudal officialdom, cut off the golden pots given by the officials and distribute them to subordinates.At least it is disrespectful to officials.Someone reported this matter to the officials, but the officials didn't think it was disobedient, but instead praised Guo Yaoshi for his style of treating others with respect, and he was a "clean and capable general", and said: "This is the reason why Guo Yaoshi can win the deadly power of his subordinates." , will be able to defend the frontier in the future, and become the emperor's screen."

Ma Kuo was one of the contacts who contributed to Chang Shengjun's rebellion. He knew that Zhen Wuchen was really sincere in instigating the rebellion. Guo Yaoshi was somewhat forced at that time.But Chang Shengjun did not know much about the situation after he sent gold anyway.Ma Kuo had several contacts with Guo Yaoshi.The general impression is similar to that of Liu Qi, and a clear opinion has not yet been formed.Now he also mentioned a noteworthy thing: These days, Guo Yaoshi often takes his generals to visit Moutuogang in the southwest corner of the outskirts of Beijing.Moutuogang is a place where the government raises livestock, with horses gathered in clouds, mountains of beans, and high open terrain overlooking the capital.As a general, Guo Yaoshi was finally brought to Tokyo by Tong Guan for the first time. Xiangguo Temple, Mahang Street and other bustling places were not enough to arouse his interest, but he went to Moutuogang again and again to inspect it. What is his intention?

"Nephew, nephew! If you don't believe me, just believe what the old clumsy said." Based on the two clues they provided, Zhao Long immediately came to his own conclusion, "In my opinion, this Guo... Turtle Dan is clearly an Anlu Mountain in the current dynasty." Based on these weak evidence alone, comparing Guo Yaoshi to An Lushan, the great rebel of the Tang Dynasty, Zhao Long's conclusion is too hasty.Liu Qi and Ma Kuo may not think that the old boss's opinion is absolutely correct.However, controlling the generals and using power at the same time, both of them must maintain a certain degree of propriety. Both Liu Qi and Ma Kuo felt that it was too much for the officials to treat Guo Yaoshi so exceptionally preferentially.In doing so, he was really concocting An Lushan. If Guo Yaoshi's ambition and strength hadn't developed to the level that An Lushan had in Tianbao's last years.From this point of view, their old boss and father-in-law's anxiety was not without reason. No wonder he broke into his daughter's high wall several times a day to destroy their peaceful life.

The fifth day of June is approaching in a blink of an eye. In the past few days, in the suburbs of Tokyo, a crazy atmosphere has formed for this celebration.But in Liu Qi's house, it was a different kind of atmosphere. Almost none of them mentioned the Jin Mingchi race.The first one, Zhao Long, was so angry when he talked about the celebration ceremony, he said: What happened today is nothing to be ashamed of, so why talk about the celebration?Qiniang only wanted to stay inside the high wall, she didn't want to go out to play at all.Mrs. Liu Qi now regards the will of the mother as her will, and the worries and joys of the mother as her worries and joys. If the mother is willing to stay at home, she will naturally stay at home.In fact, Mrs. Liu Qi has secretly drawn up a plan. She is planning to hold a small celebration banquet in her home on the fifth day of June to celebrate their escape last year. At this time last year, only she and her husband knew clearly A real crisis.The defeat in the first battle on May 26 last year and the news of a series of defeats thereafter, and the news of the third day of June that the horse was expanded solo and his whereabouts were unknown. What happened, or what might not happen?This is the most celebrated festival in this family, and it is worth everyone to have a glass of wine.

Mrs. Liu Qi's celebration plan was approved by her husband. They planned to keep the father and daughter in the gourd for a while, and then unexpectedly announced the crisis of last year when celebrating the cup, and asked everyone to celebrate this festival happily. But on the night of the third day of junior high school, Liu Kai received a note from Zhen'anfang, which disrupted their plans. This note is a short poem from "Geng Lou Zi", and the graceful handwriting is clearly written by Shi Shi.The title of "Small Ci on behalf of Cambodia, sent to Liu Sixiang and Ma Xuanzan" is added to the underside of the Ci board.

The rhythm of this little poem reminds Liu Kai and Ma Kuo of their promise. Although the meaning of the fate is obvious, the tone is low, as if she has something on her mind, the meaning of the words.This formed a kind of pressure, forcing Liu Kai and Ma Kuo to go to the appointment. To fulfill the agreement last year, the current celebration plan must be destroyed, which made Liu Kai hesitate.What's more, he also said such a beautiful sentence last year: "If the lady has a place to send, she only sends an envoy to call. How dare Liu Kai not go straight to the makeup?" Look like a man.Liu Kai glanced at the Ci Jian, and only asked: "Brother, what do you think of this matter?" Seeing her husband's hesitation, Mrs. Liu Kai also ran over and read out Shi Shi's words aloud, and relieved him in time. "Once a man speaks, it's hard to follow. Since the two of you have made an appointment with the teacher, how can you not follow through on it?" She asked for the consent of the mother, and said with some sarcasm in the clear decision, "Husband and Brother first go to watch the competition with Master and Master, and come home in the evening to receive our toast, the best of both worlds, why not?"
