Chapter 182 Xiao Qian is still Xiao Ding
Chapter 191 Xiao Qian is still Xiao Ding

Immediately there was news in Chang'an City that the two assassins who assassinated Zhang Xuan were shot to death by random arrows during the siege of Habayashi Guard. Before many people could react to that Wuhen spring dream, the ripples disappeared.

It's just that few people know that Zhang Xuan's Metropolitan Governor's Mansion has two more distinctive servants and guards, who are only under the control of Zhang Xuan.

The living place is also located alone in a small courtyard in the backyard. Zhang Xuan did not call, so the master and apprentice lived in seclusion and did not show their faces in front of others.

Zhang Xuan did not expect that his wife Cui Ying and Li Tengkong were old acquaintances, and they had a good relationship before.Back then, the two women were both born in powerful families, and they were both frequent visitors to Yuzhen Temple.

The first time Cui Ying met Li Tengkong was in Zhang Xuan's study.Cui Ying heard that Zhang Xuan had taken in two slaves with special skills, but she didn't think too much about it. She felt that her husband would join the army in Longshuo. Firstly, he wanted to resist Tubo, and secondly, he wanted to fight against Anlushan. For rebellion, the more capable people around him, the better.

At the very least, it can protect Zhang Xuan's personal safety.

But Cui Ying never expected that there would be Li Tengkong, the youngest daughter of Li Linfu who hadn't been seen for many years.

Li Tengkong stood outside Zhang Xuan's study door for a long time before he forcibly suppressed the shame and anger in his heart.In order to keep her only remaining family and clan, she had to surrender to Zhang Xuan and sell herself as a slave.But as long as she thought of Zhang Xuan's "hooliganism" that day, she felt so ashamed and angry that she almost went crazy.

Moreover, you have to face this person from time to time.Every time she saw Zhang Xuan, it would bring back the shameful memory deep in her heart.

Gritting his teeth, Li Tengkong walked into the study with his head down, stood silently on one side, gave a reluctant salute, and said softly, "Kong'er has seen the governor, but I don't know if the governor called, what can I order?"

Zhang Xuan laughed, and looked at Li Tengkong, who was wearing a blue long skirt with his eyebrows lowered and pleasing to the eye, sweeping away the chivalrous manliness of the past. He was about to say something when he suddenly heard his wife Cui Ying let out a fierce exclamation.

"Teng Kong?! Is that you?!" Cui Ying opened her mouth, but couldn't close it in surprise.

Li Tengkong actually knew about Cui Ying's existence a long time ago, but he didn't expect to bump into Cui Ying face to face so soon.

Li Tengkong's beautiful face immediately turned red, and the corners of his mouth twitched. He suppressed his embarrassment and embarrassment, and saluted, "I've seen Madam!"

Cui Ying walked over in a few steps, grabbed Li Tengkong's hand, turned her head half suspicious and half annoyed, "Lang Jun, what's going on with you, why..."

Cui Ying originally wanted to say how you brought Li Linfu's daughters in as slaves, isn't that too outrageous, but suddenly remembered Li Tengkong's face, so she stopped abruptly, quietly waiting for Zhang Xuan's answer.

Zhang Xuan was taken aback, then smiled awkwardly.

He intentionally asked Li Tengkong to protect his family members, mainly Cui Ying, because Cui Ying traveled between the Governor's Mansion, Zhang Mansion and Cui Mansion every day, and he was worried about her safety.

But unexpectedly, Li Tengkong and Cui Ying were old acquaintances.He was also to blame for his negligence. It was reasonable for Li Linfu's daughter to know Cui Ying.

"Yinger, hehe..." Zhang Xuan found it difficult to explain to Cui Ying.

Li Tengkong calmed down at this time, she looked at Cui Ying calmly and said in a low voice, "Li Tengkong committed a felony and voluntarily sold himself to the governor..."

Cui Ying blinked her eyes. Although she felt that there were some stories in it, she didn't continue to ask.Instead, he took Li Tengkong's hand and asked questions, while the two women were talking aside, leaving Zhang Xuan aside.

Zhang Xuan quietly left the study and strode towards the front yard.

It was already noon now, and he still had another occasion to attend, and that was the "wedding banquet" between Princess Yuzhen and Li Bai.Both of them are at this age, neither Li Bai nor Li Chiying are willing to hold a grand wedding. The two decided to invite a few familiar guests to a banquet together, even if it is a public announcement of their marriage and husband-wife relationship.

Zhang Xuan's invitation was sent by Li Bai himself to show his respect for Zhang Xuan.

If Zhang Xuan's power alone was relied on, Li Bai would definitely not be like this, but Zhang Xuan's talent and learning have been highly recognized by Li Bai. In Li Bai's heart, Zhang Xuan is already a good teacher and helpful friend.

Li Bai came to Zhang Xuan's mansion before, and solemnly paid homage to Zhang Xuan's family.He came sincerely and stubbornly, so Zhang Xuan had no choice but to come forward and recommend Li Bai to Li Heng as a doctor of Guozijian.

Li Bai's original intention was to be a censor doctor who could participate in politics and make suggestions, but Zhang Xuan felt that Li Bai's temperament was bold, informal, and unsophisticated. Being a speech officer in Yushitai or other yamen, not to mention whether it would arouse the resentment of Prince Li Heng, Even if it is interpersonal relationship, it is a lot of pressure for Li Bai.

Therefore, Zhang Xuan believes that it is better for Li Bai to make the best of his talents.He is good at poetry and literary talent, so he should go to the Imperial College to be a "professional official" teaching students.

Of course, if after several years of experience, Li Bai really matured politically, Zhang Xuan would definitely recommend him.

Zhang Xuan stood in the front yard and waited for a while, when Xiao Shisanlang rushed over.

Just after the "Assassin incident", as long as Zhang Xuan goes out, Xiao Shisanlang will definitely accompany and protect him, and he will never leave. Today is no exception.

Zhang Xuan looked at Xiao Shisanlang with a smile and cupped his hands, "Brother, is our son so well-behaved?"

Xiao Shisanlang sighed, "Xiao now realizes that it is not easy to raise a child. This child does not sleep at night and is noisy during the day, which is really unbearable. Hey... By the way, your sister-in-law wants you to name the child. ..."

"Brother, I already have a belly draft. There are two, one is Xiao Qian, and the other is Xiao Ding. It depends on whether the elder brother wants the child to be a hidden world expert in the future, or a person who will make contributions and make great achievements. Such a good boy."

Zhang Xuan smiled lightly.

Xiao Shisanlang smiled and immediately applauded, "Brother is indeed the number one talented person in Chang'an. The name is good. Whether it is Xiao Qian or Xiao Ding, they are both very suitable for someone. Not bad... If you let someone choose, someone will definitely choose. -"

Before Xiao Shisanlang finished speaking, he heard Li Susu's crisp voice from the other side, "Governor, my servant chooses Xiao Ding. If our son can have half the success of the Great Governor in the future, and make great achievements and honor his ancestors, my slave will feel very happy." Enough."

Xiao Shisanlang smiled and agreed.

"Sister-in-law has good eyesight." Zhang Xuan clapped his hands in praise.

There is no mother who does not want her child to be promising and successful. Since she has the opportunity, fate, and Zhang Xuan as the backer, Li Susu naturally hopes that her son will make great achievements in the future.Her state of mind is normal.

"Thank you brother for giving me the name. Xiao Lang is a martial artist. In the future, when Ding'er grows up, he still needs to be taught by his brother." Li Susu blessed Zhang Xuan, and Zhang Xuan quickly dodged, "Sister-in-law, you are welcome, Ding'er is also my son. , I should regard myself as my own."

……

……

"Brother, you should stay in the mansion to help your sister-in-law take care of the child. I will take Hua Nu and a few guards there. There should be no problem." After Zhang Xuan finished speaking, he could not help but send someone to send Feng Ming, who had been renamed Hua Nu, to the house. The Taoist nun called.

Taoist Fengming's footsteps were like flying, and she arrived lightly.

She took off her Taoist robe and put on a woman's strong outfit. Although she didn't apply makeup, she still looked charming and charming.Seeing her willow eyebrows like crescent moon, bright red face, walking like a breeze blowing willows, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but a weird smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The mature and heroic woman in front of me is hard to think of the Taoist Fengming who galloped with a sword a few days ago, Yang Jinhua, a descendant of the former Sui royal family.

Xiao Shisanlang wanted to say a few words, but Li Susu pulled his clothes at the side, so he closed his mouth with a strange expression and stopped talking.

"Huanu has met the governor." Yang Jinhua bowed expressionlessly.

Zhang Xuan withdrew his scrutinizing gaze, and said with a light smile, "Huanuer, follow me to Yuzhen Temple—"

After Zhang Xuan finished speaking, he waved his hand and drifted away.

Yang Jinhua hesitated for a moment, then silently followed with a few guards from the mansion.And outside the door, there are more than a hundred soldiers of Habayashi guards.

After Zhang Xuan and his party left, Li Susu smiled softly, and leaned into Xiao Shisanlang's ear and said, "Xiao Lang, I see that my brother is interested in Fengming's master and apprentice... Otherwise, how could he force him?" They sold themselves into slavery."

Xiao Shisanlang smiled, "This girl is not very old, and her appearance is not bad. If my brother likes her, it is her blessing, so what if I can be a concubine for my brother? It's just that this girl is reliable. Reliable, still need to observe."

Li Susu glanced at Xiao Shisanlang in embarrassment, and said angrily, "Bah, what a bitch, it's so ugly!"

"No, I'm still worried, I want to follow up and have a look." Xiao Shisanlang waved his hand, "Lady, you go back and take care of Ding'er, I'll come when I go!"

……

……

Zhang Xuan's carriage was relatively spacious and luxurious, it was a gift from Prince Li Heng, and it was worthy of Zhang Xuan's current position of power.

Holding a sword in her hand, Yang Jinhua straddled the horse and followed Zhang Xuan's chariot, looking heroic and heroic, with a bit of a heroic spirit.

Yang Jinhua was thinking about her own thoughts, suddenly saw Zhang Xuan lifted the curtain of the car, poked his head out and said calmly, "Huanuer, abandon the horse, get in the car and give me a shoulder squeeze, I feel very tired. "

Yang Jinhua was full of embarrassment and anger, just about to have a seizure, she suddenly remembered her identity, she couldn't help but gritted her teeth secretly, thinking that I will bear with it for now, and when the time comes, I will definitely tear you into pieces, this shameless boy, in order to get out The heart of the slave family!
The shame and indignation on Yang Jinhua's face disappeared in a flash, and then he regained his composure.

Zhang Xuan saw it, but said in a deep voice, "Hurry up!"

Yang Jinhua was silent, let go of the reins of the horse in her hand, and handed it to another guard at the side, then floated down on Zhang Xuan's carriage, opened the curtain and got in.

The surrounding guards of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion and a group of soldiers looked at each other with a strange smile, and continued on their way, but slowed down.
