Zhang Gongjin's casual words made Xu Yunyan scared all over. He did not dare to underestimate these ancients anymore, and then he respectfully hugged Zhang Gongjin again.
"Since I, the governor of Chuzhou, Mr. Liu, have submitted a letter, I wonder if General Zhang can let me leave?"
As soon as Xu Yunyan finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Gongjin anxiously. He didn't dare to let Zhang Gongjin take away his things.
Although the sea salt for his own thread is simple to make, and Zhang Gongjin is also known as a good old man, if he were to be deducted a little bit of sea salt on a random excuse, he would have no place to reason.
Exploiting people at all levels in ancient times is a common thing.
Zhang Gongjin laughed when he heard that Xu Yunyan was still in a hurry.
"You've just come down from the Huai River and you're in such a hurry? Are you too anxious? Besides, it's getting late. Why not rest here in Luoyang for the night and leave tomorrow morning?"
I happened to be here to ask for advice from Governor Xu on what it was like to defeat the Turks in Yunzhou that day. I was very curious to actually use such a force to defeat 100,000 Turkic cavalry. "
What kind of medicine is sold in this Gongjin gourd? Xu Yunyan couldn't figure it out. What Zhang Gongjin said was reasonable, and now he was just a small baron, holding an official position from the fifth rank.
As for Zhang Gongjin, he is the governor of Marquis Jiaying Prefecture, which is the same as his official position at his peak. However, although his lordship is not the Duke of the country, it is not comparable to Zhang Yun's current baron. This is second only to the Duke of the country. The Marquis!
"General Zhang has a destiny, and the younger one is no different. What's more, the younger one was in the rebel camp at the beginning, so the commander-in-chief didn't dare to call him General Zhang anymore.
Isn't this the killing boy? The boy's many achievements also caused the Tang army to lose a lot of generals. It is really a sin. Your Majesty did not cure the boy's crime, which already makes him feel honored. "
Xu Yunyan was polite to Zhang Gongjin here, saying that his Xu Weimo's achievements were not worth mentioning, and even more so, he said that he had done some wrong things and His Majesty would no longer pursue them, so don't hold on to them.
Although Xu Yunyan said this very politely, Zhang Gongjin, even a good old man, could hear Xu Yunyan's secret meaning and immediately laughed here.
"Captain Xu is truly a wonderful man."
But after I finished speaking, I realized that I was wrong, and then I said again here, "Look at my memory, Xu Dianjun has already said it just now, it's my fault that I'm still like this. Tonight I'm hosting a banquet to invite Xu Dianjun to accompany Xu Dianjun." Sin, is this okay?"
With Zhang Gongjin's low profile, how could Xu Yunyan have any reason to disagree? Said in a hurry here.
"It's an honor for me to be invited by the General. There's no reason to be disrespectful. Then it's all up to the General."
However, after Xu Yunyan finished speaking, he waved his hand, and a carriage, led by a general from Zhechong Mansion, came to Zhang Gongjin.
"General Zhang, this is a little thought of the boy. All the chattering in Guibao Land is the expense of our eating and drinking."
Although Zhang Gongjin didn't know what this carriage was, Xu Yunyan also said that it was for His Majesty as a gift. How could he have the nerve to accept it?
"How did this happen? Isn't this a gift to His Majesty?"
Xu Yunyan smiled and shook his head, "General Zhang doesn't know something. This is salt. You must give an auspicious number to your Majesty as a gift, right? You can't make a messy number, then you need to give out part of it, not to mention there are many gifts along the way. There is loss, do you think this is appropriate?”
Xu Yunyan made it clear that he wanted to give himself a cart of salt. The value of the salt was very high now. Zhang Gongjin accepted Xu Yunyan's sentiments and nodded with a smile.
"What Xu Dianjun said makes sense. It's better to obey orders than to be respectful. Now let's go to Luoyang City and let me fulfill my duty as a landlord."
After Zhang Gongjin finished speaking, Xu Yunyan nodded, "It's true that being respectful is worse than obeying orders. The young man will follow General Zhang into Luoyang City to take a look at the prosperity of Luoyang City."
Xu Yunyan was curious about why Zhang Gongjin valued her so much. Could it be that after Li Changsheng died unexpectedly, Li Shimin remembered that he wanted to win over her again?
With Xu Yunyan thinking like this, she followed Zhang Gongjin to a special restaurant in Luoyang City, but as soon as she entered, Xu Yunyan felt a little regretful.
"I think too much. Why are you trying to win over me? Instead, are you just trying to make yourself laugh?"
I saw that most of the people present in this restaurant were famous literati in Luoyang City. Looking at their scholarly clothes and their scholarly business spirit, Xu Yunyan was very curious, why did Zhang Gongjin come here?
Isn't it a bit too ostentatious for two warriors in armor to come here even for a meal?
At this time, although military commanders who defend their families and country are still very attractive to them, many people do not think highly of them, especially these literati, especially those from aristocratic families.
However, Xu Yunyan was thinking about the right time for Zhang Gongjin to come here. These men of letters seemed to know Zhang Gongjin and hurriedly stood up and bowed to Zhang Gongjin.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Gongjin said, "The two of us are wearing armor, and there are very few armors like mine in Luoyang City. I hope they can stay here with their good talents in this restaurant." Make a good impression so that I can recommend them as officials. I am just a way for them to take advantage of others."
When Zhang Gongjin said this, Xu Yunyan suddenly realized that not all the literati here were reciting poems and writing poems, but there were also some people who were thinking about how to enter the official world to benefit one party or cause harm to thousands of miles away.
As Zhang Gongjin went around and around, he quickly came to a hall, and there were already some Luoyang officials waiting here. They watched Zhang Gongjin bring Xu Yunyan in without any expression.
Xu Yunyan was very curious as to whether Gongjin brought her here because of his affairs while eating here, or did he arrange this in advance after discovering him? Is he so sure that he will follow him?
Just when Xu Yunyan was dumbfounded, Zhang Gongjin had already pushed him to a seat next to the main seat and sat down.
Xu Yunyan's movements like a puppet on strings did not dissatisfy the people present. Instead, they saw that it was normal for Zhang Gongjin to act like this.
After Zhang Gongjin sat down, an official of unknown rank and position stood up and toasted Zhang Gongjin with a glass of wine.
"General Zhang is in Luoyang to protect the country and the people. I will pay a toast to General Zhang."
It took Xu Yunyan a moment to react, but he was indeed a little embarrassed here after picking up the wine glass. He was allergic to alcohol, what would be the consequences if he drank it?
But seeing everyone drinking, how can I explain why I refuse to drink here?
