It's graceful and graceful, light and not self-sustaining. -------Tang Wupingyi's "Miscellaneous Songs and Songs? My Concubine Is Unlucky"
Time flies, winter passes and spring comes, and the peach blossoms bloom again. Before the peach blossoms bloomed all over the south bank of the Xiang River, Chen Long had already captured Hengyang, easily captured Guiyang, and unified Jiaozhou. The detailed design plan for the navy's Mengchong battleship has also been placed on Chen Long's desk. Chen Long temporarily suppressed the approval and wanted to wait for Shi Xie to send the shipbuilding craftsmen from Jiaozhou before he could propose modifications.
Professional people do professional things, and Chen Long never relaxed for a day in training the special forces. To hide, track, and assassinate in the harshest environment, only a true hero can do it. Lu Chang has already taken on the responsibility of leading the team for training, and Chen Long has a rare few days of leisure time.
Jiang Wan's budget, which has been allocated 7788, will finally be able to meet the needs of military expansion. The navy's budget was getting bigger and bigger, and Chen Long had no choice but to slightly reduce the size of the navy's ships, hoping that the skilled craftsmen of Jiaozhou Shixie could build the sea-going ships of his dreams.
On this day, the spring was bright, and Guiyang's general Zhao Fan was temporarily idle at home, living a lonely and carefree life. On the contrary, his subordinates Chen Ying and Bao Long have been appointed as regimental commanders under Xing Daorong, and they have slowly devoted themselves to the fierce military training.
With nothing to do, Zhao Fan lamented that his former glory was useless in Lingling. He set up a Go board under the corridor and enjoyed playing chess with his left and right hands in the sun. Suddenly, Chen Ying and Bao Long came to visit together. It turned out that Zhao Yun's troops had just changed defenses. Chen Ying and Bao Long had just returned to Lingling for training with Zhao Yun and Xing Daorong and had a day off.
When Chen Ying and Bao Long talked about the regiment commander Zhao Yun, they all praised him. They said that Zilong was outstanding in talent and martial arts, and Zhao Fan couldn't help but pay attention. Later, I heard that Zhao Yun was also from Zhending, Hebei Province. He couldn't help but said happily: "It turns out that General Zhao and I are from the same hometown and have the same surname. We are destined to be together. I wonder if you two can invite him to my house tonight?" He started to write a greeting note. Handed it to Chen Ying, and the two of them hurriedly agreed and left.
Zhao Yun arranged the defense, reported the training situation to Chen Long in the city lord's palace, and was chatting with Chen Long. When Chen Long asked about the situation between him and Tong Feifei, Zhao Yun lowered his head and sighed: "I invited Feifei to Hengyang several times, but she always refused because she wanted to take care of the master. I'm afraid I won't be able to complete the task that the master gave me to capture Feifei. That's okay. , A real man has his ambitions all over the world, but as for feelings, he can only let everything take its course."
Chen Long sighed in his heart, Tong Feifei didn't know what he was thinking, what could he do?
Thinking about it, he couldn't help but pull Zhao Yun up and said: "We brothers, let's go see Master and Senior Sister together."
The two of them rode horses and bridles, and went straight to the village in the countryside. Tong Yuan liked to be clean, so Chen Long arranged for him to live in a small village outside the city. He was fully equipped with guards and servants, and his daily necessities were provided by himself. The two of them dismounted their horses outside the village, and guards led the two horses to take care of them.
The courtyard inside the villa is elegant, with a peach tree in bloom beside the wall. There is a rocking chair under the peach blossoms, and Tong Yuan is relaxing with his eyes closed. Chen Long and Zhao Yun quietly walked up to their master, and suddenly a surprised voice came from behind: "Junior Brother Long! Junior Brother Yun! You finally have time to visit dad!"
The two turned around and saw a beauty dressed in light red. Danfeng's eyes were full of smiles. It was Tong Feifei, the master beauty master. Chen Long responded with a smile, but Zhao Yun took a few steps forward and said happily: "Senior Sister! You are always so kind, why don't you go to Hengyang to see me!"
Feifei smiled, but before he could respond, Tong Yuan had already heard the sound and stood up and said: "Wenlong and Zilong are here!" The two of them quickly turned around and saluted: "Hello, Master!"
Chen Long came here to discuss Zhao Yun and Feifei's marriage with Tong Yuan, so he took his master into the hall and sat down, while Zhao Yun and Feifei chatted in the courtyard. Chen Long said to his master: "Master, it's time for the male to get married and the female to get married. Zilong and Feifei are a perfect match. Why not get married so that you can have a grandson and relieve your loneliness?"
Seeing Feifei standing far outside the door, Tong Yuan shook his head and sighed: "Why don't I have this intention? But as you know, my daughter has to make her own decisions. As for why she has never agreed to Zilong, I am afraid that in her heart I can't let go of another person." After saying that, he stared into Chen Long's eyes, which were full of meaning.
Chen Long's heart trembled, most afraid of what might happen. He said hurriedly: "Master, you have been here before. You should understand that Zilong is the most suitable for Feifei. How can I compete with Zilong for Feifei? Besides, I already have Taohua and Zhang Ning. Wouldn't it be wrong for Feifei."
Tong Yuan opened his mouth to speak, but when he saw Tong Feifei walking from the courtyard to the lobby, he quickly stopped talking and the atmosphere became slightly awkward. Tong Feifei's sweet and lively voice said: "Dad, what are you and Junior Brother Long talking about in private? Are you going behind Junior Brother Yun and me's back?"
Chen Long hurriedly stood up and said with a smile: "Senior Sister is the smartest. We don't have any secrets. We are just discussing whether the male students should get married and the female students should get married." Tong Feifei understood it as soon as he heard it, turned around with a red face and stamped his feet. Running, only one sentence floated in the air: "I won't marry!" He happened to meet Zhao Yun walking out of the hall, and ran away with a blushing face.
After returning to the city from Tong Yuan, both of them felt a little heavy in their hearts and their spirits were quite low. Although Chen Long made it clear to Tong Yuan, it had no effect. He also asked Tong Yuan to tell the fact that Feifei liked him. Not to mention Zhao Yun, when he saw Tong Feifei running out of the hall just now, he already had a premonition that Feifei was unwilling to marry him, and he was afraid that his love would turn into a river of spring water and flow eastward.
Chen Long saw that Zhao Yun was unhappy and sent him back to his apartment. At the door of the apartment, Chen Ying and Bao Long stood. When they saw the two of them, they hurriedly gave military salutes: "Lord! General Zhao!"
Zhao Yun asked strangely: "I give you a day off today, what are you doing here?"
Chen Ying hurriedly took out Zhao Fan's greeting card and said to Zhao Yun: "Commander Zhao is our old master, General Zhao Fan. Hearing us talk about Commander Zhao's demeanor, he admires him very much. I would like to invite General Zhao to visit us tonight."
Zhao Yun refused without even thinking about it: "Please go back to General Zhao Fan for me. Just tell him that I am not available for the time being and I will invite him to get together later."
Chen Ying hurriedly said: "General Zhao Fan heard that you are also from Changshan Zhending. He said that you might be from the same clan as you, so he sent us to invite you just to express our feelings for the Xiang Party." Zhao Yun heard that Zhao Fan, a fellow countryman, hesitated for a moment and looked at Chen Long, seemingly asking for instructions.
Chen Long's heart moved. Zhao Yun and Zhao Fan had intersections in the official history. Could it be happening in Lingling? Let Zhao Yun agree and see what God wills. Then he said: "Zilong, you can go tonight, just in time to greet General Zhao Fan for me. Just say that I am too busy these days. If a suitable position becomes available in a few days, I will definitely arrange it for him."
After Zhao Yun heard what Chen Long said, he had no choice but to stop refusing. Chen Ying and Bao Long left happily after saluting. Zhao Yun asked: "My lord, it seems inappropriate for Chen Ying and Bao Long to miss their old master."
Chen Long said: "It's human nature. As long as you observe their daily behavior without cliques and selfish interests, there is no need to be vigilant. Later, I assigned Zhao Fan to the navy so that the two sides could train separately and gradually fade away."
Zhao Yun nodded, and Chen Long continued: "Zhao Fan was originally the governor of Guiyang County, and his position is too low and inappropriate. In this way, you can tell him that I plan to appoint him as the commander of the navy's logistics division, which is also a good position."
Zhao Yun understood that this was Chen Long asking him to show favor, so that Zhao Fan could know Zhao Yun's influence on Chen Long, and said gratefully: "Thank you, lord. Please rest assured, lord, I will take care of it."
That night, Zhao Yun dressed in casual clothes and brought two soldiers outside the small courtyard where Zhao Fan temporarily lived. Zhao Fan had been waiting at the door and personally led Zhao Yun to the Xuan Hall. He talked about their respective addresses in Zhending, which were not far from Zhaojiazhuang. When he talked about the situation in his hometown, the atmosphere between the two gradually became warm. Talking about age again, Zhao Fan is ten years older.
Zhao Fan intended to make friends with Zhao Yun. Although he was ten years older, he was very respectful in his words. Zhao Fan's servants prepared a banquet with nothing but chicken, duck and fish. Zhao Fan asked his wife to come out to accompany him, and he toasted at the banquet: "I, Zhao Fan, have this glass of wine, first of all, for you. I have met Governor Wenlong like this." My dear Lord, the second reason is to reunite you and my fellow countrymen."
Zhao Long raised his glass and drank it down in one gulp: "Today I told my lord that I would be a guest at General Zhao's place. My lord asked me to take the message and I will soon grant Brother Zhao a real job."
Zhao Fan was overjoyed and surprised when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "My lord, did you really say that?" But he was secretly wary in his heart, knowing that Zhao Yun had reported to Chen Long before accepting his banquet, and Chen Long knew his every move very well. I'm afraid we have to grasp the scale of contact with Chen Ying, Bao Long and other old generals.
Zhao Yun said: "My lord also asked me for my opinion, and I said that the navy's logistics needs senior generals. Later, my lord said that he would consider giving you the position of commander of the navy's logistics division."
Zhao Fan was overjoyed and said: "It's all thanks to General Zilong. Although we are different in age, we are from the same clan. If Zilong doesn't dislike it, how about we become brothers with the same surname?"
Zhao Yun was also happy after hearing this. He agreed at the wine table: "Brother, since I have received my love from you, how can I not disobey you?" Zhao Fan laughed and said, "In the future, you and I will work together to do our best for our lord." , when the world is at peace, how can we know that we can't live down the ages and leave a name in history!" As he said this, he drank heavily with Zhao Yun, and from then on the two became brothers.
After talking about some old stories about my hometown, suddenly a beautiful woman walked out from the back hall. Zhao Yun was slightly drunk. When he looked up, he felt like a fairy in white had arrived. When he shook his head and took a closer look, he saw a delicate beauty standing in front of the hall. Her black hair was tied up in a bun like a dark cloud, and her hair was white and thin. Her skin is made of butter, with two shallow pear dimples on her face, two natural red lips that slightly reveal her teeth, and especially her pair of eyes that are as traceless as autumn water. . Even though she doesn’t use powder, she still looks beautiful.
Zhao Yun took a breath and quickly lowered his eyes. When he saw Zhao Fan looking at him with a smile, he noticed that he was a little embarrassed. He quickly raised his hands and asked Zhao Fan, "Who is this lady?"
Zhao Fan's smile widened. He had just ordered someone to call Mrs. Fan just to let Mrs. Fan and Zhao Yun get acquainted. He raised his glass and said, "Brother, let me introduce you. This is my widowed sister-in-law, Mrs. Fan. You two have a chat."
Zhao Yun hurriedly stood up and cupped his hands and said: "So it's my sister-in-law. Zhao Yun is being polite now." He felt a little strange in his heart. Seeing that Mrs. Fan was still dressed in plain clothes, Zhao Fan asked her to come out to accompany her for a drink.
Zhao Fan saw that Zhao Yun was a little embarrassed, and said hurriedly: "Brother, you and I hit it off as old friends, and we became like a family, so I asked my widowed sister-in-law to come out to meet me. Zilong is both civilized and military, and is not yet married. My sister-in-law is a beautiful woman in heaven and country, worthy of Zilong. My sister-in-law is a widow, It’s been more than a year, so it’s not considered inappropriate to remarry, but I wonder what Zilong’s intention is?”
Although history has been rewritten by Chen Long, the fate between Zhao Yun and Mrs. Fan has once again reached the juncture of history. If you want to know whether Zilong agrees to marry Mrs. Fan, please listen to the next chapter.
