end song

Chapter 710

Turning hurriedly into the alley, he climbed up to the attic of an inn. Zhang Hongfan stood by the window, looking out through the crack of the window.

Sure enough, Zhang Wenjing from the other side of the long street was coming here.

She was wearing men's clothes, but she looked much brighter than when she was at home.

Zhang Hongfan's eyes turned and fell on Li Xia again.

With just one glance, he knew it was Li Xia.

He has a handsome figure, a demeanor, and the only talent for such a person is Li Xia, who has been famous for a long time.

After observing carefully for a long time, Zhang Hongfan looked away, looked at Li Xia and Zhang Wenjing's holding hands, and couldn't help muttering softly.

"Lady from a famous family, how decent is she?"

On the other side of the street, Li Xia and Zhang Wenjing have walked into the restaurant just now hand in hand.

Zhang Hongfan was about to turn around and leave.

Things can't be done.

Before departure, I really didn't expect that the eldest sister would tell Li Xia directly like this.

This is how much trust Li Xia should have, so that he can immediately ask his lover to do it without even meeting Brother Nine first?
Just turned around, suddenly, there was a shout.

"Ninth brother."

Zhang Hongfan turned his head and looked towards the long street again.

I saw that Zhang Wenjing had already run to the middle of the street, looking around, raised her hands to her mouth, and shouted loudly.

"Ninth Brother, I know you're still here. How about talking to us? Fifth Brother hasn't sent anyone here. I'm worried about him."

Zhang Hongfan shook his head and muttered again.

"Lady from a famous family, yell."

The eldest sister is not like she used to be in her boudoir.

Then thinking that the elder sister said that she was worried about Zhang Wulang, not about the family, he knew that this younger sister was still smart.

Over there, Li Xia had already walked to Zhang Wenjing's side, comforted her a little, and then shouted.

"Brother Zhongchou, you came so far away, why don't you stay for a glass of wedding wine? I can guarantee that this time we will only talk about personal friendship, and I will not force the Zhang family to make an immediate choice. If there is any embarrassment at home, you and I can discuss it together Good strategy!"

Zhang Hongfan stood behind the window and watched, only to see Li Xia yelled a word, turned to the high tower behind the Cao'e Temple and glanced at him, and then looked at another inn after a while.

"Sincerely invite Zhongchou to meet, I have some information for you."

After only hearing these few words, Zhang Hongfan knew that Li Xia was capable of doing things.

When things happen, the mood is stable, neither arrogant nor angry nor angry nor greedy.

If it were someone else, I'm afraid there will be the arrogance of "I don't care about your Zhang family's life or death, you must vote for me".

Li Xia didn't have such useless emotions, but calmly proposed to solve the problem.

With this frankness and understanding, the eldest sister can also tell frankly.

Because "Li Xia can always handle things properly and is always trustworthy", this is his impression.

If he, Zhang Hongfan, was the eldest sister, he would probably think "Leave the matter to Li Xia".

~~
"Ninth brother, trust us once? We won't harm you..."

Zhang Wenjing yelled for a while, raised her eyes and looked around the houses on both sides of the street, not knowing where Zhang Hongfan was hiding, and was quite distressed.

As soon as she received the poem, she found Li Xia and brought someone over, but she was a step too late.

After waiting for a while, she pulled Li Xia and asked, "Send someone to search Brother Jiu out? He has a long beard and beard, and is tall and broad, so he's easy to recognize."

Li Xia thought that Zhang Hongfan was so alert that it was hard to find him.

But it's better to send a team to search, lest Zhang Wenjing have any regrets.

He looked around and pointed to several inns around him.

"Search the inn, the tea house, and the tower behind the temple carefully... Don't disturb the people and let those who are interested think that something is wrong in the city."

"Yes!"

Li Xia pulled Zhang Wenjing over and said, "Sit and wait."

The two walked into the restaurant, and Li Xia casually picked up the newspaper on the table, looked at it, and muttered.

"Why is it Kuro instead of Goro?"

"I don't know. I haven't seen Brother Nine in the past five years. He has treated me very well since I was a child. Among all the brothers, he treats my younger brothers and sisters the best."

Li Xia nodded, and said casually: "I think your fifth brother has a good personality."

He turned his head and looked outside the restaurant, only to see a personal attendant had returned with a letter.

"Your Majesty, I found this..."

~~
Zhang Hongfan has left Chaoyang Gate in the east of Hanzhong City.

His actions can be said to be fast, and his decisions can not be said to be unhappy.

Seeing the opportunity was wrong, without any sloppiness, and without being confused by words, he acted swiftly and resolutely.

The only thing is, the chin is bare.

Makes people extremely uncomfortable.

Zhang Hongfan studied under Hao Jing when he was young, and after leaving the teacher, he grew his hair and showed his ambition to show that he will do things to the end and never give up halfway.

In the battle of blood and anger, the beard is beautiful and long. This beautiful long beard that has been carefully maintained for five or six years has attracted the admiration of many lieutenants and soldiers, let alone how many people have admired his majesty because of it.

Today, shaved...

Only at the moment when he saw his eldest sister and Li Xia walking hand in hand, he could already be sure that this visit was doomed to return in vain, and it was difficult for him to even leave.

Therefore must be decisive.

From this point of view, among the brothers and sisters, the eldest sister is the most like him.

On the contrary, Goro, who is hesitant when things happen, is not as good as the eldest sister, otherwise he would not have to come this time.

That's all, the eldest sister is fulfilled. After returning, she took Wulang to intercede with His Majesty.

……

Now that we are out of the city, it is not difficult to leave Hanzhong.

Hanzhong has always encouraged business travel. Smugglers in the north can enter the country as long as they are willing to sell horses and ironware, and they will also issue travel documents.

When smugglers from the north and south of the Yangtze River come here, they can be treated as serious businessmen, but they can't carry weapons, and they are strictly guarded to prevent troubles or inquire about secrets.

Zhang Hongfan came with the business traveler, and also left with the business traveler.

He rode his horse to Chenggu, changed to a merchant ship, and went down the river, still planning to take the route of towing thunder and destroying gold.

Two days later, the merchant ship entered the Han River Gorge.

Zhang Hongfan leaned in the cabin, touched the short stubble on his lips, and suddenly smiled.

"Never mind it."

Beards can grow again after all, why should a man care about such trivial details?

The rest of the difficulties are nothing more than that.

With the talent of his life, there is always a way to keep Goro.

Zhang Hongfan thought up to this point, and suddenly felt a broadening of his mind.

At this moment, he is more imposing than the bearded man before.

Thinking about loving my younger sister since she was a child, this time she is going to get married, and she came from thousands of miles by herself, and she didn't send blessings, but left a letter of kindness, which seemed narrow-minded, and was compared by Li Xia.

But after doing it, there is nothing to regret. Everyone has his own ambition and does his best.

Zhang Hongfan laughed, and casually made a self-deprecating sentence.

"The world is not to be judged, it is a dream in the past and the present. Xiao Shali is famous and has a guest on the road, so do your best!"

Leaving the cabin with a big laugh, he stood on the bow of the boat with his hands behind his back, watching the boat crushing the waves on the river, as if he was just here for a trip.

The sky is high and the clouds are wide in front of me, and I feel my fighting spirit is high. Suddenly I see dozens of riders running from the east by the Han River.

Zhang Hongfan squinted his eyes, looked at it for a while, and suddenly stood there...

~~
April [-]th.

At night, the courtyard where Pingling County Prince's Mansion and Zhang Wenjing lived temporarily was still busy.

While the maidservants were busy, Yan'er shouted to arrange things from time to time in the small courtyard.

The boudoir smells like rouge, and the red candles are brightly lit.

Zhang Wenjing is trying on her wedding dress, dressed properly, and the face reflected in the bronze mirror is so beautiful.

"It's so beautiful that even my women's crown is tempting." Yuan Yan said with a smile, "Okay, don't look at it, try these phoenix shoes."

"I'm getting married tomorrow."

"Don't worry about it any more." Seeing that Zhang Wenjing was distracted, Yuan Yan couldn't help but comfort him, "It's fine to be expelled from the house, at least the Zhang family will be fine."

Zhang Wenjing lowered her eyebrows first, then raised her head, and said, "There will be nothing wrong with it. I expected that Kublai Khan would not dare to touch the house at this time, so he ran out."

"Then why are you still on your mind?"

"What's on your mind?" Zhang Wenjing smiled and whispered, "You're shy."

Yuan Yan sighed, and was about to speak, when suddenly she heard Yan'er in the courtyard shout "Jun Wang", she was stunned, and rushed to the boudoir door.

"It's not appropriate for the county king to meet newcomers at this time..."

"Yuan Lu is laughing, I have a few words with Wen Jing..."

Zhang Wenjing turned her head and saw Li Xia walking in majesticly, she couldn't help but said in embarrassment: "Get out, get out quickly, how can we meet at this time."

Li Xia smiled and said, "I have something serious to tell you."

"That won't work either. Tomorrow is a big day for me to get married. You are not allowed to come over tonight."

Zhang Wenjing picked up the handkerchief on the table and threw it over to chase him away.

She hadn't put on her phoenix shoes yet, and she couldn't walk away even when she sat there. After a while, she was picked up by Li Xia and sat on the side of the couch.

"Let go, I really hit you."

"Let's talk, we're getting married, and I don't want you to worry about it."

"What's on your mind." Zhang Wenjing smiled, "Can we talk about it tomorrow night?"

Having said that, she still buried her head in Li Xia's arms, feeling aggrieved suddenly.

"Don't worry." Li Xia patted her on the back lightly, and said, "I never believe that Kublai Khan dared to touch the Zhang family at this time. He is still on the way to Hara and Lin. If he dares to force him at this time, If one is not handled properly, the Central Plains will be in chaos, which is simply a way of death."

"I know, it's because I've figured it out that I dare to come to you." Zhang Wenjing said, "I'm a little girl, and it would be a joke if I dispose of a nobleman just because of me."

"Is that wronged because of being expelled from the house? The geographical location determines that the Zhang family cannot rebel against the Mongolian people now. I never thought of wooing the Zhang family now. If that is the case, it is better to draw a clear line first. Your family is safer."

"Don't be wronged, sooner or later let my father and brother know that I have high vision."

"Worried about Zhang Wulang?"

"Ah."

Zhang Wenjing agreed, and then muttered: "Fifth brother is too stupid."

Li Xia said: "I understand him, he can't be the master of such a big matter."

"If he has no idea, he should send someone to meet us."

"Actually, there is a tacit understanding." Li Xia said: "For the time being, I don't have the strength to attack historians and take Henan. It is practical to think about it. If you are willing to vote for me, you can use Bozhou's soldiers to attack Shi Tianze's back and back, and tie Li Fen in the east. Great things can be expected. If you can secretly wait until then, it will be a good result for him and me.

Therefore, I also want to keep Zhang Wulang and let him wait and see slowly.For this reason, I released a lot of false information, framing Shang Ting, Shi Tianze, Yi Shu'an and others, creating the false impression that everyone in the Heluo area may have different intentions.Zhang Wulang hid in the illusion, so that he could hide from Kublai Khan's eyes. This is what I wanted to tell Zhang Jiulang that day. "

"I've been thinking for the past two days... Brother Nine suddenly came here, is something wrong?"

"Well, to tell you the truth, I got news from Guanzhong today... Last month, Ahema went to Luoyang and forcibly dismissed Zhao Bi and Shang Ting, and killed many people."

"What happened? Is it related to Fifth Brother?"

"Maybe, Shang Ting was framed by me, and Zhao Biben had a grudge against Ahema. As for your fifth brother..."

Li Xia had already discussed with Han Qi'an for a long time today, reluctantly made some inferences, and pondered: "Zhang Wulang should have been covering up our affairs, and he should have been found out this time."

Zhang Wenjing shook her head anxiously.

"How can this be concealed? He underestimated Zhao Bi and the others."

"It seems to be self-defeating. It was Kublai Khan who acquiesced in the Zhang family's acceptance of my dowry, so he couldn't deal with the Zhang family anymore. Zhang Wulang should state this matter directly to show his openness. Once he covered it up, he stayed behind. handle."

"Fifth brother is embarrassing everyone." Zhang Wenjing became more and more distressed, "Even if he escapes, father can draw a clear line with him. But in this way, if he is not dealt with, it will not even be justified on the surface."

"Zhang Jiulang should be here for this reason."

"Then Brother Nine wants to take me back and save Brother Five?"

"Ah."

Zhang Wenjing buried her head lower, for a long time, she muttered, "Then I don't regret it either."

"Don't you regret it?"

Zhang Wenjing put her arms around Li Xia and said, "I believe that you are the destiny. Ninth brother can save fifth brother for a while, but cannot save Zhang family for a lifetime."

"Maybe it's just that beauty is in the eye of the beholder?"

"Just trust you."

"But still worried about Zhang Wulang?"

"Why can't Brother Nine let Brother Five go?"

Li Xia said: "At this time, if Zhang Jiulang dares to let him go, the crime will fall on Zhang Jiulang."

"But they are different. The fifth brother has never been in the eyes of Kublai Khan. He made such a big mistake this time, and he is likely to be executed. But the ninth brother is so young, and anyone with a discerning eye knows that the family fortune will fall on him. In terms of official position, merit, connections, and prestige in the army, the fifth brother is far from being able to compare with him. Kublai Khan wants to stabilize the Zhang family for the sake of the Zhang family's military power. The military power belongs to his father, the sixth brother and the ninth brother. Fifth Brother alone is not the only one. If Ninth Brother is willing to release someone secretly, the crime will be light, and his father is partial to him. At least, he will not die..."

As Zhang Wenjing spoke, she lowered her head.

"Actually, I've already guessed these two days. I'm angry with Brother Nine. I'm angry that he would rather destroy my marriage and put Fifth Brother in danger than give up his future. But I have no right to blame Brother Nine. , I refuse to give up my love with you, he refuses to give up his future, I am the same as him, both of us are selfish. Only Fifth Brother never thinks about himself, he takes care of everyone in the family... I'm afraid he'll just disappear this time..."

She would only say these words to Li Xia.

Li Xia never hides his flamboyance and ambition from her, nor does she hide her selfishness from Li Xia.

"You are for your husband and son-in-law, and he is for his benefactor. Everyone has their own ambitions, so you can't force it." Li Xia said, "I'll send someone to bring Zhang Wulang out, okay?"

"Okay, but then Fifth Brother will not be able to raise Bozhou to respond."

"The matter has come to this point, there is no other way. Kublai Khan's purpose of doing these things is to remove the hidden dangers in Bozhou. If he has this means, let him do it." Li Xia said: "Anyway, don't worry anymore."

"I can't help you at all... Han Changshi is afraid that I am not qualified to be your side princess."

"No. I like you and marry you, not the Zhang family."

"I really know how to coax people, I don't know if I have been coaxed better by you."

Li Xia kissed her on the forehead and said, "Don't think too much about it, we will get married tomorrow, and you just need to be the most beautiful bride..."

There was already a knock on the door outside the boudoir, and Yan'er cautiously tried a word.

"Is the county king still there? We have to carry Xibei over, we can't mess it up..."

~~
The next day is the wedding day.

The wedding is simple yet solemn.

Zhang Wenjing in Fengguan Xiapei was helped onto the sedan chair.

She held a round fan in her hand and covered her face, both joyful and regretful.

The daughter who was expelled from the house got married, and the last family member of her natal family did not come.

The sedan chair made a small circle around the city and arrived in front of Pingling Prince's Mansion. Although the atmosphere seemed solemn, something was missing after all.

In front, Li Xia dismounted, opened the car curtain and looked at her.

Smiling at each other, Zhang Wenjing hurriedly covered her face with a round fan, waiting for him to carry her out of the sedan chair.

Suddenly, only the sound of horseshoes came from the east.

Li Xia looked back for a while, then turned to listen to someone's report.

"The auspicious time has not yet arrived, wait a little longer..."

Zhang Wenjing in the sedan chair couldn't help feeling a little worried, for fear that something might happen again.

An old girl who is already 21, what should I do if I can't remarry today?
She was unavoidably anxious, and wanted to lift the curtain but dared not.

After waiting for a long time, I suddenly heard the bustle outside.

After that, a familiar voice sounded.

"I haven't seen you in Bozhou for many years. Today I am here to send my sister off to get married. I wish you a happy marriage for a hundred years..."

Zhang Wenjing hurriedly lifted the curtain to look, and saw Li Xia in a red wedding gown facing the dusty Zhang Hongdao, and they bowed to each other.

She couldn't help being stunned, and said to herself: "Fifth Brother finally figured it out, and he's not that stupid."

Spending money all over the sky.

Xi Niang shouted: "Quickly arrange to invite her family to enter the hospital."

Zhang Wenjing glanced at the familiar faces behind Zhang Hongdao, and only now did she feel that her wedding was complete.

"My mother's family."

She put down the car curtain, couldn't help but giggle, wiped the corners of her eyes, and tried her best not to let her makeup fade away...
