Chapter 268 Family Affairs, State Affairs, and World Affairs

In the main hall, when Pei Yuan proposed to let Zhang Zhao go to Liangzhou, the situation had actually eased.

Zhang Zhao's grandfather, Song Tongyi, slowly walked to Zhang Zhao's side with the support of his uncle Song Shantong.

The ancestors of the Song family in Shazhou were promoted officials when Zhang Zhao’s ancestor Zhang Xiaosong was the governor of Shazhou. The relationship between the ancestors can be traced back to the Kaiyuan period hundreds of years ago, and the two parties have also married many times in history.

Song Tongyi didn't have much feeling for Zhang Chengfeng's son-in-law, because Zhang Chengfeng was really unreliable.

He married the daughter of the Song family only to win over the Song family, so as to carry out his extravagant hope of conquering the east and west, and reappearing the glory of the Guiyi army.

However, Song Tongyi had already seen the reality clearly. After four consecutive bloody internal struggles by Zhang Huaishen, Suo Xun, Li's family and Zhang Chengfeng's seizure of the throne, the Guiyi Army was no longer the former Guiyi Army.

In these four power alternations, large-scale bloody conflicts occurred. Except for Zhang Huaiding, Zhang Huaishen, Suo Xun and Li's three sons all ended in the killing of almost the whole family.

Such serious internal strife has greatly weakened the strength of the Guiyi army, and more importantly, it has hit the morale of the Guiyi army.

After Zhang Chengfeng came to power, he hoped that the people below would follow him and return to the six counties of Hexi, but in fact no one still believed that the Guiyi Army could flourish again.

And even if it prospers, so what?Continuing to the next bloody infighting, maybe the whole family will be killed?
Therefore, after Zhang Chengfeng was forced to recognize Ganzhou Uighur Khan as his father, Song Tongyi followed Cao Yijin without any hesitation, and drove his son-in-law out of power.

But for Zhang Zhao, he is different. The son-in-law is not related by blood, but the grandson is different.

Moreover, this grandson is still so talented, and more importantly, he is Zhang Yichao's only surviving bloodline.

"My lord, please remove the soldiers outside! Erlang is the only bloodline of the Taibaogong. We Guasha Tangs, without the Taibaogong, may still be slaves to the Tubo people. The old man is about to die, and it is impossible to see the Taibaogong die! "

After finishing speaking, Song Tongyi patted Zhang Zhao on the shoulder, "Let your people release Cao Er Ya Nei, our Gua Sha Tang'er only has a few hundred thousand people in this area, if we continue to kill each other, I'm afraid our family will be wiped out.

If you still have anger in your heart, grandpa can tell you that the two leaders who forced you to abdicate the emperor in white were King Linggong and grandpa. If you can get down to killing us both, then come Bar! "

"Erlang, that happened more than [-] years ago. No one wanted your life back then, everyone just didn't want to be brought into hell by him, because we have long since lost the ability to join Hexi."

Grandpa Song Tongyi hadn't finished speaking when Zhang Zhao's uncle and grandpa from the Yin family came over.

That's what he said, and the fact is also the same, but Zhang Zhao felt very depressed.

His father died, and the Zhang family lost power. Could it be possible to expose it with just a few words?
Besides, he made such a big commotion without any compensation, so he just wanted to leave. His face darkened immediately, and his words were not so nice.

"The two elders have lost their son-in-law and nephew, and they can still be so light-hearted, it seems that the effort to nourish their spirit must be at home.

But my grandson can't. In the coup more than [-] years ago, I lost my father and elder brother. It can't be revealed with a few sentences. "

"Mr. Erlang, your mother is here!" Just as he was about to say something sarcastic, Cao Yanming ran over with a strange expression on his face.

Zhang Zhao suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, his most important reliance has finally come!
It seems that the brains of his third cousin, Princess Tiansheng, are still very useful.

"Open the door! Let's clarify the grievances and grievances 20 years ago together today!"

Zhang Zhao waved at Cao Yanming with a relaxed expression, then looked at Ma Shacai, who had been holding Cao Yuanshen down all the time, "Let go of my second cousin too!"

Cao Yanming and Ma Shacai looked at Zhang Zhao in dismay, and even thought that Zhang Zhao's brain was broken?
Now open the door and let people go, can they still go out?
"Go and do it! What are you dawdling about!" Zhang Zhao knocked on Cao Yanming's head, then pointed to his own head, indicating that he was not in a daze, and told Cao Yanming to open the door quickly.

The heavy creaking sound seemed to hit everyone's hearts. It had been almost two hours since Zhang Zhao broke in and threatened everyone with the terrifying wooden cylinder that could explode on Cao Yuanshen.

The bloody infighting in front of them made everyone feel deep fear. The sound of the main door opening of the main hall was heard in their ears like a horn of hope.

Everyone looked up to the door and saw that a crowd of soldiers came in surrounded by four women.

The one on the far right is a woman with a slightly old face, but a tall and straight figure and a noble temperament.

She is similar to the woman on the far left, wearing a gorgeous queen's gown in the style of Anzai.

There are also a lot of barbarian looks in their faces, especially the older one, who is almost a complete orchid.

The two old women in the middle looked like Han people, and they were wearing the brown jackets and skirts that old women in Dunhuang often wore. Both of them were very old, and one of them was even pushed in.

"Zhaoer! Don't worry about your father's death. The moment he recognized Ganzhou Uighur Khan as his father in order to preserve Dunhuang, he was already dead.

A man who is as proud as a goshawk cannot accept this humiliation!
If you want revenge, you shouldn't go to Cao Yijin, let alone a fool like Cao Yuande, you should go to the Ge Luo family of Uighur medicine in Ganzhou! "

Calling Cao Yijin's name directly, calling Zhang Zhao Zhao'er, calling Cao Yuande a fool, and only a woman can say that about Zhang Zhao's father, Zhang Chengfeng.

That is Zhang Zhao's aunt, Li Shengtian's mother-in-law elder sister, Princess Fengtian of the Kingdom of Khotan!
And beside Princess Fengtian, who also has obvious Hu people's blood, is the third daughter of Li Shengtian and Cao Yuanxin, Princess Tiansheng of Khotan.

And the two old women who were sandwiched by their mothers were even more terrible.

The younger one on the left is the daughter of Zhang Huaishen, the second Jiedu envoy of the Guiyi Army, the daughter-in-law of Suo Xun, the third Jiedu envoy, Cao Yuande's and Cao Yuanshen's first relatives.

She was older, and the status of an old woman sitting in a four-wheeled wheelchair was even more serious.

She has a stooped figure, her thinning hair can only be wrapped in a gauze, and the wrinkles on her face are like ravines. Only a pair of eyes that can't see sadness and joy are shining brightly.

The old woman was born in the fourth year of Xuanzong Dazhong in the Tang Dynasty, that is, in 850 AD, which is the second year when Zhang Yichao raised his arms and began to rebel against the Tubo rule. She is 86 years old this year.

She is Zhang Zhao's aunt, the No.14 daughter of the great hero Zhang Yichao, the wife of former Guiyi Army general Li Mingzhen, and the only surviving child of Zhang Yichao in the entire Guiyi Army so far.

The soldiers following behind them were faintly headed by a woman in leather armor. The woman even showed a faint smile at Zhang Zhao. It was Mrs. Cao San.

According to Zhang Zhao's instructions to her, Mrs. Cao San led thirty soldiers into Dunhuang City in batches.

After Zhang Zhao entered Qingxi Palace, the hundred Khotan warriors who joined Princess Tiansheng went directly to pick up Zhang Zhao's aunt, Princess Fengtian, and finally entered Qingxi Palace as Cao Liulang and Cao Yanlu.

This is the most important trump card of Zhang Zhao's self-confidence. When he detains Cao Yuande and Cao Yuanshen brothers, the Cao family can be said to have fallen into a leaderless group.

The only two people who can still talk are Cao Yuanzhong and Cao Yanlu.

But the two father and son would never attack Zhang Zhao.

Cao Yuanzhong is Zhang Zhao's double father-in-law, and Cao Yanlu is even more special. He is Zhang Zhao's cousin-in-law, and Zhang Zhao is Cao Yanlu's brother-in-law and brother-in-law.

There is no need to guess who Cao Yuanzhong and his son will lean towards. This is why Cao Yuande wanted to lock up Cao Yuanzhong's family at the beginning.

It can also be seen from this that Cao Yuande did not have the ability and means to carry out a coup at all. Before Cao Yuanzhong was locked up, Cao Yanlu had already run out ahead of time, and he did not dare to lock up Princess Tiansheng of Khotan. There were loopholes everywhere.

"Mother!" Zhang Zhao yelled, and knelt down on the spot. Everyone in the hall looked out. The door was open, but they still didn't dare to move.

Because the soldiers outside were all dark Khotan warriors, the Cao family had no leader, and the Jiedu Ya army guarding outside was directly arranged by Cao Yanlu to garrison outside the palace.

The two brothers Cao Yanjing and Cao Yanlu are the Marquis of Du Yu, the chief and deputy of the Jiedu Yaqian of the Guiyi Army. Cao Yanjing is in the main hall, and the Cao family warriors outside can only listen to Cao Yanlu's command.

"My son! Look up, and let mother have a good look!"

Princess Fengtian walked up a few steps quickly, and then gently held Zhang Zhao in her arms, and tears began to fall down.

"If he is a good man from the Zhang family, he looks exactly like you, but you are more promising than him. I heard that you expanded thousands of miles for Khotan in Anxi and became the most prosperous country in Anxi. Your uncle should be very happy, right? ? Is he in good health?"

Princess Fengtian held Zhang Zhao's face, with infinite nostalgia in her eyes, since she left when she was a teenager, she hasn't been back for almost 30 years.

Zhang Zhao also raised his head and carefully observed his aunt, Princess Fengtian. She has long passed away, and she has changed from the stable embrace Zhang Zhao remembered when she was young, to an old woman who is nearly fifty years old, slightly chubby. The face is actually somewhat similar to Li Shengtian.

"Uncle Tianzi is in very good health! When the child left, he told me that when the political affairs are not so busy, we must send a full set of carriages to pick up my mother and return to Khotan for a while!"

After hearing this, Princess Fengtian held her head up and took a deep breath, "It's been twenty years since I left home, and Zhao'er has grown up too, so it's time for me to go back to Khotan!"

After finishing speaking, Princess Fengtian looked at Zhang Zhao again, and said in a low voice, "Go and see your mother later, don't blame her, she was frightened, and hid in the Buddhist hall to pray for you."

The mother mentioned by Princess Fengtian is naturally Zhang Zhao's biological mother Song, a very timid woman.

Zhang Zhao originally wanted to take her out, but it seemed that Song Shi hid herself, maybe it was because the shadow of the coup d'état stimulated her too much.

"Cao Yuande, are you still not coming down? Your father has not passed away, who let you sit in that position?"

Sure enough, born in the emperor's family, Princess Fengtian discovered Cao Yuande's biggest flaw very keenly.

Because Cao Yijin just had a stroke, and was fainted by the cannibalism in Qingyuan Palace, but he did not die. Cao Yuande's Guiyi Army also talked about it without any legal reason after staying in Jiedu.

Cao Yuande's face drooped immediately, and he felt that the position under his buttocks seemed to be suddenly set on fire, and Princess Fengtian could only call him disobedient and unfilial.

At this time, another young woman in a green padded jacket ran over from the entrance of the main hall. The woman ran over panting, and she did not forget to glance at Zhang Zhao who had just stood up, with deep meaning in her eyes.

Zhang Zhao also recognized who it was right away, because the padded jacket was made by craftsmen in Shule, and only Cao Sanniang and Nineteenth Niang had it in Dunhuang.

This pink-looking woman with bright eyes and bright teeth must be his regular wife, Cao Nineniang Yanxi.

"Eldest Uncle, Second Uncle, Yeye, Your Majesty has woken up! I'm clamoring to see you!"

Cao Yanxi whispered a little timidly, and deliberately spared the way, and stood beside Zhang Zhao.

Upon hearing that Cao Yijin had woken up, Cao Yuande's expression was a little complicated, while Cao Yuanzhong heaved a long sigh of relief.

Princess Fengtian took Zhang Zhao's hand and asked him to push a four-wheeled cart for Zhang Yichao's fourteenth daughter, Mrs. Zhang Li, and then said to the people in the hall.

"Song Weng, Yin Weng, Chen Weng, Murong Shijun, Luo Bingmashi, and the family members of each family should come with us to meet Cao Shijun!

The rest of the people are waiting here, Cao Yanlu, you stay in the hall, no one is allowed to leave until we come back. "

. . . .

In Qingxi Palace, Cao Yijin was sitting on the Hu bed. After everyone came in, he rolled his eyes a few times, and he was obviously relieved when he saw that the three brothers Cao Yuande were all there.

"Even Aunt Fourteen was alarmed, Aunt, please forgive my nephew for not being able to stand up and salute."

Cao Yijin first accused Zhang Lishi of a crime, and then cast his gaze on Zhang Zhao without looking at anyone else.

"Zhang Erlang, uncle's life is not long!"

Zhang Zhao looked at Cao Yijin, but in just over four years, the brilliance of life in this King Tuoxi of the Guiyi Army had disappeared.

Four years ago, his jet-black hair was almost all gray, and the aura of a feudal lord had long since disappeared, leaving only his old age.

The slightly crooked corners of his mouth and the blurred articulation showed that he had indeed suffered a stroke, but it might not be too serious.

"Everyone is mortal! My nephew will also have that day. My uncle has preserved a home for Guasha Tang'er in peril in this life. In the next life, he will definitely reincarnate in the prosperous age."

For Cao Yijin, Zhang Zhao still admires him very much. Half of his starting capital was donated by Cao Yijin, so he can be regarded as Zhang Zhao's benefactor.

"You don't shy away from life and death. Others have advised me that I will get better soon, but you are the only one who said that XX is about to enter reincarnation."

A smile bloomed on Cao Yijin's gray face. He was even more relaxed when facing Zhang Zhao than when facing his own son.

"Remember the agreement between you and me?"

Zhang Zhao nodded, "Of course my nephew remembers. On the day we return to our homeland, my nephew will carry the coffin and send my uncle to be buried in Qiao County. In front of the inscription on the tomb, I will write the letter 'Gu Zhong of the Tang Dynasty, Jiedu Envoy of Longyou, Hexi' , the tomb of Cao Gong, the king of Qiaojun, who tabooed on discussing gold'"

"You know me!" Cao Yijin raised his right hand with difficulty and pointed at Zhang Zhao.

"Hearding that you have done great things in Anxi, I am very happy. Finally, I will wait for Tang'er in Hexi. I want to go to Chang'an so much. When I was young, I thought, I still didn't go there when I was old!"

Speaking of this, Cao Yijin suddenly became very disappointed, and the death gray on his face became more and more obvious.

"Why didn't you, Zhang Erlang, be born decades earlier? If you had been appointed as the governor of the rebel army after the Taibao Gong, we would have returned to our homeland long ago.

A certain Cao Yijin was probably born in a noble family in Chang'an, so he doesn't have to live in Guasha like he is now, and see the human tragedy of mother and son and brother killing each other on the hospital bed! "

"Father, Yuande is not filial! You keep your body!" Cao Yuande finally couldn't hold back anymore, and fell to his knees on the ground with a plop.

However, Cao Yijin twisted his neck and looked in another direction, not looking at Cao Yuande on the ground, nor at Cao Yuanshen standing there stupidly.

"Zhang Erlang, back then when you made a prophecy, the children born to Mrs. Li and her really couldn't be saved.

This is my Cao Yijin's retribution, but enough children have died, can you two cousins ​​be saved? "

Cao Yuanshen's lips moved a little. He wanted to say that it's still unknown who will win the battle, but maybe it was the blessing of his ancestors, so he swallowed the words back.

"My nephew wants to go to Liangzhou, because Guasha is poor and far away from the Central Plains, so it's really hard for me to do my best.

However, I want to take away the name of the Guiyi Army, and those who don't want to return to their homeland don't need this morality.

Let's put aside the position of Jiedu Envoy of the Guiyi Army for the time being, and send an envoy to the imperial court to ask Situ to prosecute a certain father-in-law, and the Jidu of Gua and Shazhou to observe and deal with the fallen envoy of Abbot and the governor of Shazhou! "

As soon as Zhang Zhao's words fell, Cao Yuanzhong was dumbfounded. He really never thought of getting the power of Guazhou and Erzhou, but the thing is so strange, he couldn't get what he wanted, and Liu Chengyin turned into Liu Chengyin instead. .

But for the other two, this sentence was like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and Cao Yuan fell to his knees with a deep plop.

"Father!" Cao Yuande screamed directly.

Zhang Zhao wanted to invite the Guasha Erzhou Observer and Shazhou Governor for his father-in-law Cao Yuanzhong. After Cao Yuanzhong got this official position, Cao Yuande would have nothing.

At this time, whether it is Guiyi Army, Ganzhou Uyghur, or Liangzhou, Hexi still has to pay attention to integrity.

Whenever the Jiedushi, Khan, etc. are replaced, they must be recognized by the Central Plains Dynasty.

Cao Yijin didn't even look at Cao Yuande and Cao Yuanshen. It seems that the mutiny in Qingyuan Palace deeply stimulated Cao Yijin.

"What about the Jiedu Envoy of Guiyi Army? You don't want Zhang Erlang anymore?"

Zhang Zhao hesitated for a moment, but decided not to tell lies in front of Cao Yijin.

"My nephew is going to Liangzhou in a few days. After staying in Liangzhou, he cheated and concealed it. He extorted three feet and extorted three feet. Someone intends to replace him.

If it can be done, the imperial court will definitely seal the Hexi Jiedushi and return it to the Yijun Jiedushi, so it will not be invited for the time being.

In addition, when my nephew came back to Dunhuang, there was actually an army of [-], named Fengtian Army.

But since returning to the east, the word "Fengtian" is beyond the use of human officials, and there is no need to make the court fearful and unhappy because of a name.

Therefore, if someone wants to change the name of the Fengtian Army to the Guiyi Army, he will use the five thousand athletes to ask the imperial court to be an envoy of the Guiyi Army! "

"It's a good plan!" Cao Yijin coughed a few times, and everyone in the room looked at Zhang Zhao differently.

Zhang Zhao wanted to hide the title of Jiedushi of the Guiyi Army, because a Jiedushi of the Guiyi Army with only Guasha and a Jiedushi of the Guiyi Army who owned Liangzhou were completely different for the Central Plains court. Two feelings.

Therefore, in order to avoid the jealousy of the Central Plains court, it is undoubtedly correct to hide the name of the Jiedushi of the Guiyi Army and only use the name of the Hexi Jiedushi.

But changing the army to Guiyi Army and asking for the title of Guiyi Army Envoy is not so conspicuous.

This not only grasps the morality, but also avoids being too eye-catching.

"So, Zhang Erlang, are you ready to let go of your hatred of the emperor in white? Dalang, Erlang, you can be a rich man with peace of mind!"

Cao Yijin sighed, the first half of the sentence was for Zhang Zhao, and the second half was for the two brothers Cao Yuande and Cao Yuanshen who were kneeling on the ground.

"Let it go! Because I think my mother is right, the blame for my father's death should be blamed on the Ganzhou Uighurs!"

Not avenging his father is a big deduction in this era. Even though Zhang Zhao has no feelings for Zhang Chengfeng at all, he can't say that he won't avenge Zhang Chengfeng. Now he just uses the words of his mother, Princess Fengtian, to give the matter to Yuan Yuan. return.

"Besides, if I must avenge my uncle, who should I turn to for my uncle Situ's revenge?"

The uncle Situ Gong mentioned by Zhang Zhao refers to Zhang Huaishen, the second Jiedu envoy of the Guiyi Army.

Zhang Huaishen was the eldest son of Zhang Yichao's elder brother Zhang Yitan. After Zhang Yichao arrived in Chang'an, Zhang Huaishen was the actual controller of the Guiyi Army.

Later, after Zhang Yichao passed away, his descendants returned to Shazhou from Chang'an, that is, Zhang Zhao's grandfather Zhang Huaiding returned with a large family.

Naturally, after Zhang Huaiding came back, he definitely believed that the Jiedushi of the Guiyi Army should belong to him. With the support of his brother-in-law Suo Xun and Li Mingzhen, he took advantage of Zhang Huai's deep resentment against his concubine to launch the first bloody coup in the history of the Guiyi Army.

During the coup, Zhang Huaishen, who had been in power for more than ten years and returned to the rebel army, was killed, including his wife Chen and six legitimate sons.

This has also become the curse of the Guiyi Army. Since then, every replacement of Jiedushi has always been accompanied by bloody internal fighting.

No matter from which point of view, Zhang Huaishen has made great contributions to the development and growth of the Guiyi Army, and Zhang Yichao agreed to his succession.

Zhang Zhao's grandfather, Zhang Huaiding, was not qualified to do this, and he did it so terribly, directly killing the whole family, and the only one who survived was Zhang who was present and married Suo Xun's son.

"Woooooo!" Mrs. Zhang didn't cry, but it was Zhang Huaiqing who cried.

The father who lost his father when he was young was actually brought up by his cousin Zhang Huaishen. When Zhang Huaishen was killed, he was already in his teens, so he has a very deep memory.

"Zhang Erlang, tell me something fair!" The more Zhang Huaiqing cried, the more sad he became.

"Situ has made great contributions to the Zhang family and the Guiyi army. He often handles government affairs until midnight. He is a military governor, which was approved by the Taibao. Why did he end up with the whole family being killed? How unfair is the sky?"

"It's my grandfather, I'm sorry uncle!" Zhang Zhao admitted without any hesitation, because it was indeed Zhang Huaiding who did something wrong.

"Father! Father! Today, someone has finally spoken a fair word for you. The bastards do evil, the monarch sees bullying, when will the Zhang family stop killing each other?"

Zhang, who had already dried up her tears, held the corner of her clothes tightly, and finally cried again, no longer as numb as a living dead.

If you want to say who is the worst in the Guiyi Army, she is the worst.

The cousin and father-in-law joined forces to kill his father and six brothers.

Immediately afterwards, the cousin Zhang Lishi who was beside her led someone to kill her father-in-law's whole family including her husband, leaving only her and a few children.

Later, she witnessed the execution of Li's three sons.

Hearing the mournful cries in the room, everyone was awakened from their nightmare experience, and everyone's faces turned sad.

If it wasn't for killing each other, how could the Guiyi Army have fallen into the current situation?No one is willing to go through those bloody past events.

When can we stop killing each other?Although there is no family affection in front of power, when the real knife comes, no one is the winner, whether it is the perpetrator or the victim.

Because this cycle, like a curse, will be passed down from generation to generation.

So, Zhang Zhao thought for a while, then he walked up to his aunt Zhang and his great-grandfather Zhang Huaiqing, and knelt down slowly.

"Uncle, the dead cannot be resurrected, so I am going to open a cave for my uncle alone to make offerings to the Buddha.

I heard that my uncle has seven sons, and the family is full of descendants. I dare to ask my uncle to give up one of his sons to be adopted by Uncle Situ. Then I will ask the imperial court to confer the title of Duke of Nanyang County, Taibao. "

Zhang Huaishen's family was killed in the coup, and they were virtually extinct, but Zhang Huaiqing, as the younger brother brought up by Zhang Huaiding, was able to give up a descendant to Zhang Huaishen for adoption, which is definitely the most comforting thing for the spirit in heaven.

Cao Yijin narrowed his eyes, and couldn't help but praise in secret, brilliant!Not only continued the incense for Zhang Huaishen, redeemed the sins of the ancestors, but also attracted Zhang Huaiqing.

Because although he was adopted, the adopted son and grandsons are still Zhang Huaiqing's descendants. Without this matter, Zhang Huaiqing's son would definitely not be able to get the title of Duke of Nanyang County.

Moreover, Zhang Huaiqing is famous in the Zhang family for being able to bear children. There are more than fifty sons, daughters, grandsons, and granddaughters in total.
Similarly, the in-laws of the children and grandchildren spread all over the upper echelons of the Guiyi Army, and if he was won, a large number of people would be won.

Hearing what Zhang Zhao said, as Zhang Huaishen's only surviving bloodline, Zhang's withered face suddenly burst into vitality, and she looked at Zhang Huaiqing expectantly.

Zhang Huaiqing who sat down on the ground wiped his tears and nodded heavily. For him, this is a great thing to comfort his brother, and he can pick a Nanyang County Duke, of course he will agree.

"The Zhang family in Nanyang is hopeful! Brother, did you see it in the sky? The Zhang family finally has a person who can distinguish right from wrong. Jiulang, I will adopt the youngest son's family to you immediately, and you can rest in peace!"

"Erlang!" Mrs. Zhang walked up to Zhang Zhao, crying and pulling Zhang Zhao up from the ground.

Everyone around couldn't help but red eyes. The two most important members of the Zhang family finally reconciled at this time.

Sitting in a four-wheeled wheelchair, Zhang Lishi looked at Zhang Zhao with burning eyes. Zhang Zhao comforted Zhang Huaishen's daughter for a while, then walked in front of Zhang Lishi, and knelt down slowly.

For everyone present, Mrs. Zhang and Li have a very special meaning.

She is the only surviving heir of Zhang Yichao, and her husband is the founder of the Guiyi Army.

She is a living fossil that has witnessed the Guiyi Army from its establishment to its glory and then to its decline, and she has also held the power of the Guiyi Army for several years.

"Grandmother, my grandson apologizes to you on behalf of my father. Although the three uncles of the Li family were at fault, they were not guilty of death, let alone the whole family.

Look at my father, he also paid the price, but he died of depression at the age of 24. The grandson often thinks that when he dreams back at midnight, he must also regret it!

I heard that Shaozong's cousin's eldest son, Cunhui, is good at bow and horse, and he is a brave man in the next generation, so let Cunhui follow me to Liangzhou, and command the Guiyi army camp! "

After the death of Zhang Zhao's grandfather, Zhang Huaiding, Suo Xun, a general of the Guiyi Army who was also Zhang Yichao's son-in-law, usurped power and replaced Zhang Zhao's father, Zhang Chengfeng, as the governor of the Guiyi Army.

Later, it was Li who took his four sons to oust Suo Xun who had usurped power, and Zhang Chengfeng was able to succeed.

This was originally a good thing, but after Zhang Chengfeng succeeded to the throne, the Li family had other ideas. The Li family and the four sons split up the power of the rebel army, which completely emptied Zhang Chengfeng.

In the end, they were also overthrown by Zhang Chengfeng and the big clan in Shazhou. Except for Li Hongding, all the four sons of the Li family were executed, and the whole family was killed.

The Shaozong cousin Zhang Zhao mentioned was the son of Li Hongding and the grandson of Zhang Lishi, and Li Cunhui was the son of Li Shaozong and the great-grandson of Zhang Lishi.

In Guasa Tanger, Li Cunhui and Murong Nobunaga are both known as Shuangbi, brave and decisive, Zhang Zhao decided to take him to Liangzhou, one is to give him an official position to reach a settlement, and the other is to really use it.

"Erlang, my aunt also wants to open the Buddhist cave for your three cousins, to make offerings to the Buddha, and to continue the incense for the adopted children and grandchildren. Do you think it is okay?"

Zhang Lishi stretched out a hand like a dead wood, and gently stroked Zhang Zhao's cheek, tears fell down.

"My sons! How badly they died! Day and night I heard them howling in hell, and there was nothing I could do!"

"Auntie Yi, and my grandson has the status of the Dharma King of Buddhism. This time, there are hundreds of eminent monks from Tianzhu who followed my grandson to the west. I want to build another Jialan on the sandbar, and it will be called Yan'en Temple.

We enshrine all the heroic ancestors who followed the Taibao Gong uprising, and the descendants can also accompany them! "

After finishing speaking, Zhang Zhao turned his head to look at Suo Xun's grandson, Suo Shengquan, "Cousin Suo, when the time comes, bring the birthday and portrait of Uncle Suo's grandfather, and enshrine them together!"

"Okay! Okay! Thank you very much, Mr. Erlang!" Suo Shengquan was so excited that he couldn't speak easily.

Suo Xun was different from others, he was the chief culprit of the Guiyi Army's turmoil, Zhang Huaishen was the one who instigated Zhang Huaiding to kill Zhang Huaiding, and later imprisoned Zhang Chengfeng for self-reliance, others could say he was innocent, except Suo Xun.

But now, Zhang Zhao is willing to get Suo Xun to enshrine in the temple, which is enough for the Suo family. You must know that Cao Yijin's first wife is Suo Xun's daughter.

"Zhang Erlang, come to Uncle!" Seeing Zhang Zhao's willingness to reconcile with the Suo family, Cao Yijin waved to Zhang Zhao.

"From now on, you can call me grandpa! The Cao family will be safe and prosperous in the future, I can see it!

You did a good job, even better than someone thought. At least someone doesn't have the ability to reconcile with everyone. Can there be a Buddha statue of Cao Yijin in this Yan'en Temple? "

This is the benefit of Zhang Zhao's insistence on breaking through Tianzhu. At this time, the atmosphere of Buddhism is far from comparable to that of later generations. In the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin and Wu Zetian were awarded the title of the Holy Emperor of the Golden Wheel.

Although Zhang Zhao only got one Yinlun Dharma King, and he couldn't spread it out immediately, but in the small circle inside the Guiyi Army, he was already very remarkable.

Because building temples for sacrifices is not just for anyone, such as Cao Yijin, even if he is the Jiedushi of the Guiyi Army, he cannot build temples privately.

But Zhang Zhao can, not only can, he can also canonize gods and Buddhas, because among the seven treasures of the reincarnation king, the Jade Girl Treasure, the Master Treasure Treasure and the Dian Bing Treasure are humanoid.

Jade girl treasure refers to the most beautiful beauty in the world, symbolizing conquest.

The main treasure refers to the prime minister under the reincarnation king.

Dian Bing Bao refers to the bravest generals.

Although these three are not Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, they have the status of gods and Buddhas, and they can even worship in separate temples.

Cao Yijin struggled to let Cao Sanniang and Cao Nineniang support him, and then bowed to Zhang Zhao on Hu's bed.

"My disciple worships the Buddha all his life. There are five out of sixty in his life. He has never killed a person unjustly. He guards the world here, but he has a public heart.

If you can hide treasures for the sage king of reincarnation and enter the temple to worship, this life is enough!Please Dharma King complete it! "

Standing tall, Zhang Zhao was honored by Cao Yijin, and then took out the gold seal and book of the Holy King of Reincarnation from his body, and Cao Nineniang handed him the vermilion pen.

Zhang Zhao was in the house and personally wrote the gold book document that Duke Cao of Yunqiao County said that gold is the main treasure, bestowing virtue, and the treasure is overflowing with incompetent people.

Cao Yijin held the master treasure gold book written to him by Zhang Zhao, his eyes were full of satisfaction.

"There is a clan in Liangzhou called Cao Wanjia, which was formed when Sogdian Cao migrated to Liangzhou, and is now the head of the Sogdian people in Liangzhou.

Its leader, Cao Wancheng, had paid homage to Suo Taibao (Suo Xun) in Dunhuang for the Liangzhou envoy in the past, and continued the genealogy with a certain person, and had an agreement.

I wrote a letter in hand. When Erlang arrives in Liangzhou, he will be able to use both kindness and power, and he will use it! "

right!There are a lot of Sogdians in Liangzhou, and even more in Liangzhou City. They are basically responsible for economic activities, and there are at least [-] to [-] people.

If he could get the support of the Sinicized Sogdians in Liangzhou, he would have more confidence in driving Li Wenqian away.

"Mr. Erlang! A certain family comes from Tuyuhun. Among the Liugu tribes in Liangzhou, the Dongdahegu tribe of Zhangmi, Mabo, and Zhulu. Although they call themselves Gamo, they are actually Tuyuhun survivors who became slaves after Tubo annexed them. .

A certain Murong family, originally belonged to that royal family, and we have been in touch with each other over the years. The old man wrote a letter in hand, and asked Xin Chang'er to take it.

Mr. Erlang is wise and powerful, if he has their full support, he will have a foundation in the Liugu tribe of Yanmo. "

The one who spoke was Murong Guiying, the father-in-law of Mrs. Cao and the grandfather of Murong Nobunaga.

The old guy is indeed an old fox, it turns out that he is very good at timing!These three families of Tuyuhun survivors happened to scratch Zhang Zhao's itch.

"Murong envoy will be able to enter Yan'en Temple and offer sacrifices for future generations. These three old Tuyuhun clans will be the Xinchang'er tribe for generations. After someone takes over Hexi Longyou in the future, Xinchang'er can be the second prefecture of Shankuo Assassin!"

Shanzhou and Kuozhou are on the edge of Liangzhou. They belong to the prefectures inhabited by the Liugu tribe. Although they are not big, they are also one of the eleven prefectures recovered by Zhang Yichao in the past.

"So, thank you Erlang Jun for your kindness!" Murong Guiying didn't expect Zhang Zhao to be so generous, and he took Murong Nobunaga's hand.

"My dear grandson, you lost your father when you were young, and your grandfather is old, so you can raise a young eagle like you, but you can't make you fly above the nine heavens.

Your uncles are mediocre people, let them stay in Guazhou and enjoy their wealth and honor!
The eagle of the Murong family is going to a wider world. From today on, Mr. Zhang Erlang is your elder. A Weng will send you three hundred warriors of the Murong family to make contributions! "

For a Chinese, the power of posthumous fame is indeed powerful, and the temptation to set up a temple to offer sacrifices is an irresistible temptation for any old man, neither Cao Yijin nor Murong Guiying.

But after being played by the two of them, everyone in the room looked at Zhang Zhao differently.

King Zhang Fa set up a temple to offer sacrifices. If your ancestors cannot enter the temple, will you still have the face to be a human being in the future?The ancestors are not allowed to slap you in the face in a dream?

Especially the older ones, don't they want to go in and worship their ancestors as filial sons and virtuous grandchildren?
What's more, Cao Yijin and Murong Guiying have both placed their bets, seeing that this matter in Liangzhou is very interesting!Don't want to bet?

"Erlang, my grandfather's family doesn't practice military affairs, but you uncles and cousins, who are familiar with articles, money, food, taxes and laws are all worthy of merit, which can be used by Erlang to stabilize the people of Liangzhou!"

Grandfather Song Tongyi came out first, and then led the rhythm for Zhang Zhao.

"Erlang, the talents of a certain Suo family are withered, but there are fifty sets of armor left by their ancestors, one hundred and twenty strong bows and crossbows, which can be given to Erlang to pacify Liangzhou." Suo Sheng has no children to use, but there are Armor and crossbow.

"Mr. Erlang, in the past, I was a servant who was sorry for the emperor in white. Fortunately, there is still a chance to make amends today. The Luo family in Shazhou has a hundred and fifty sons. They are skilled in battle and are skilled in bows and horses. Please take them in!"

Luo Tongda stood up. The Luo family in Shazhou, the Suo family in Guazhou, and the Li family in Longxi were the three major martial clans that joined the rebel army after the Zhang family.

The Suo family and the Li family are now withered talents, but the Luo family still maintains a strong family heritage. Needless to say, the Luo family warriors are absolutely powerful.

The Song family and the Luo family made another bet, and the scene immediately became lively. Everyone was relatives, and the atmosphere was so enthusiastic. Some people would sell people, and if they had armored bows, they would sell armored bows and crossbows.

After a while, the elite disciples and armored weapons of the Guiyi army were delivered to Zhang Zhao in large numbers.

Especially the children of these rich families, they are not ordinary warriors, they are all capable of sprinting back and forth when mounted, fighting in formation when dismounted, good at shooting from a distance, chopping at close range, and able to read and write. Most of them are talents who have studied the art of war , This is not only a warrior, but also a high-quality grassroots officer.

It is not an exaggeration to say that they are the future of the Guiyi Army!
A dangerous coup finally turned into forgiveness, and now it has turned into hope, and the smell of blood dissipated immediately.

The next successor of Guasha Erzhou has been determined. As Zhang Zhao's double father-in-law, he got Cao Yuanzhong, a paper-paper maker who investigated and dealt with the abducted envoys in Guasha Erzhou.I will definitely support Zhang Zhao.

At the same time, Zhang Zhao took away the morality of the Guiyi Army. Before he could clearly display the signboard of the Guiyi Army, Zhang Zhao's position as an envoy of the Guiyi Army was the banner of Hexi and Anxi Tang'er's return to the east!
