"Mr. Lang..."
Seeing Ding Qinyu lying in his arms and constantly teasing him, Lu Li just laughed and didn't answer. As for keeping a distance, he might as well forget about it.
As of now, no one in Bingzhou knows that he is Ding Gong's good son-in-law. In addition, Ding Qinyu can walk out of the house without Ding Gong's permission. I'm afraid it's because a good thing is about to happen between the two of them, so he turns a blind eye. Eyesight.
"wood."
With a murmur, Ding Qinyu stopped entangled and lay silently in Lu Li's arms, staring at the pool in a daze with him.
Frankly speaking, the garden in the General's Mansion is definitely one of the best in Bingzhou. However, due to the fact that the ice and snow have not disappeared at this time, and the owner has neglected to take care of it, the ice surface is covered with fallen leaves, making it look more and more depressed.
However, Lu Li thought this was good, as it was suitable for him to calm down and think.
[The optimistic people thought that there was going to be military chaos in the capital and bloodshed in the two palaces. The emperor was disgusted with it, so he sent out troops from all directions, preached martial arts under peaceful conditions, and called himself the supreme general.]
In addition to the Yellow Turban Rebellion and border changes, many major events also happened last year——
The fortune-telling master believed that there would be a military disaster in Luoyang, the capital, and bloodshed would occur in the northern and southern palaces. Emperor Ling wanted to suppress it through magic, so he mobilized a large number of troops from various places, held a military parade under peaceful conditions, and at the same time claimed to be the supreme general.
This point really shocked Lu Li. It was not because he thought the emperor's act of proclaiming himself a supreme general was absurd, but because he was surprised that a military disaster in Luoyang could be predicted in advance by a wise sorcerer.
You must know that the old man holding the dove-headed king's staff can only predict his personal future, but he can also predict the fortune of a country so accurately. If this person is not his classmate and knows the general trend of history in advance, then the fortune teller It’s really terrifying, and his methods are almost like those of ghosts and gods!
In addition, news about Boss Cao also spread to Bingzhou.
In August, the establishment of the Eighth School Captain of Xiyuan began.
Xiaohuangmen Jian Shuo was appointed as the upper military commander, Huben Zhonglang Yuan Shao as the middle military commander, Tunqi Colonel Bao Hong as the lower military commander, Yilang Cao Cao as the dian military commander, Zhao Rong as the assistant left commander, Feng Fang was appointed as the right commander to assist the army, Xia Mou, the admonishing doctor, was appointed as the left commander, and Chunyu Qiong was appointed as the right commander.
Obviously, the selection of the eighth captain of Xiyuan is the result of a balance between the two parties——
The power of eunuchs and the power of scholar-bureaucrats.
At first glance, the scholar-bureaucrats undoubtedly had the upper hand. Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Bao Hong, Zhao Rong, and Chunyu Qiong were all scholars, but the score could not be settled. The person standing behind Jian Shuo was the emperor.
After experiencing the first Yellow Turban Rebellion, Ling Emperor Liu Hong began to pay attention to the military. Jian Shuo was loyal and capable. He not only understood the spirit of war but also knew the art of war. Therefore, he was appointed as a senior military captain to command. Among the remaining seven captains, there is also Feng Fangzhu, the right captain of the army, and Xiangzhu.
This balancing act made Lu Li look at the emperor with admiration.
At this time, the doorman suddenly broke in, interrupting Lu Li's memories.
"General, we have a visitor."
Lu Li sat up straight: "Who is it?"
"General Zhang Liao." The doorman answered with his hands raised.
Although the relationship between the two was close, the etiquette could not be broken. The doorman did not dare to let the person in without the owner's permission.
Brother Wenyuan?
What is he doing at this time of year?
Lu Li suppressed his thoughts, stood up and said, "Please come quickly."
"Forget it, I'll go meet you personally."
Hearing this, Ding Qinyu quickly grabbed Lu Li's arm and followed him quickly.
Zhang Liao was now wearing a tall hat and black clothes, with a sword in his waist. Since he had been in a high position for a long time and had been studying all year round, his demeanor was more calm than before. However, when he saw Lu Li and Ding Qinyu coming side by side, his expression was still the same. With a smile——
During their marriage, he served as the official envoy and contributed a lot during this period, so their relationship naturally became closer.
"Isn't my brother training in Hanoi?"
Lu Li strode forward to greet him: "Why do you have time to come here?"
Before Zhang Liao could reach Lu Li, his hearty laughter had already reached their ears. He met Lu Li in the courtyard, held Lu Li's hand and said, "Meng Ming." , I have two good things to tell you here."
After saying this, he bowed to Ding Qinyu again.
Ding Qinyu also saluted in response.
Not long after, the three of them came to the main hall, and the servants quickly served them wine, food and fruits.
Seeing Zhang Liao laughing all the way, Lu Li was filled with curiosity. After sitting down, he couldn't help but ask: "Brother, I just had two things to tell Meng Ming. What are they? And you came all the way from Hanoi."
"Huangfu Song defeated Han Sui, and Xiliang is determined!"
Having said this, Zhang Liao laughed out loud again.
Xizhou is next to Bingzhou, where there are many rebels. Earlier, its leader Han Sui defeated Geng Bi, the governor of Liangzhou, showing his sharpness and superiority to the Yellow Turban Army. Ma Teng, the Sima of Liangzhou, also rebelled. , formed a blood alliance with Han Sui, and after the two armies joined forces, they became powerful in the two states of Xi and Liang.
Although the imperial court had sent a large army to attack the enemy, there was no way that Duke Ding could turn a blind eye to such a huge rebellion happening next door. He quickly ordered Zhang Liao to station troops in Hanoi and Lu Bu to guard the border.
Now that Huangfu Song defeated the rebels, Ding Gong definitely breathed a sigh of relief. It was reasonable to let Zhang Liao come back after he had not rested for a long time.
"The old general is worthy of being the pillar of the country."
Ding Qinyu is the daughter of a general. Even if she does not leave the house, she still has a deep understanding of the general trend of the world under the influence of her ears and eyes. She smiled and said: "In this way, General Huangfu can really take the title of the great and blessed general of the Han Dynasty."
He turned the tide twice during the Pingzhangjiao Rebellion and the Xiliang rebels. It is indeed not an exaggeration to call him a great and lucky general of the Han Dynasty.
"It's a pity that because of the emperor's character, he was given a few false titles at most and the general power was taken back, just like four years ago."
Two eyes were cast over.
Lu Li discovered for the first time that he actually didn't know his soon-to-be wife. He used to think of her as a flower vase, but now he saw that she was indeed more knowledgeable than other ladies.
In the past, Huangfu Song, who put down the Zhangjiao Rebellion, was recognized as the best general in the world. However, eunuchs such as Zhao Zhong and Zhang Rang slandered him, and the emperor was afraid of the military power in his hands, so he found an excuse to take him away. The seal and ribbon of the left chariot general.
If the Xiliang Rebellion had not been quelled for a long time, the old general would still be idle at home. However, with the lessons learned from the past, even if Huangfu Song once again made great contributions in this revolt, it would still be difficult to get the rewards he deserved.
When Zhang Liao saw Ding Qinyu hugging Lu Li, with a posture of never leaving, an idea suddenly occurred to him, and he calmed down and said: "Meng Ming, I have some bad news here..."
"Um?"
While Lu Li was distracted, he suddenly heard his brother mentioning bad news and quickly recovered his thoughts.
But I heard Zhang Liao say: "The emperor has promoted someone to serve as the shepherd of Bingzhou."
In an instant, Ding Qinyu's expression changed.
Which royal family member is eyeing Bingzhou?
This was related to family interests, so she couldn't help but be cautious. Besides, Zhang Liao was not a joker.
On the side, Lu Li raised his eyebrows and asked:
"Dong Zhuo?"
