Chapter 90: Sorrowful Plot

As night gradually descended, the Yàn army left the battlefield.

Considering that the troops were exhausted and the casualties were serious, King Yàn decided not to get entangled with Ping An, so he drove the camp overnight to the north.

It was not until midnight that the army set out to camp and cook water and rest.

The snow stopped, the noise during the day had disappeared, and only the groan of wounded soldiers was left in the night.

Zhu Gaoxu walked into the central army and only then did he have time to talk to King Yàn.

He saluted first and said with his fists: The news that his father was in Dongchang reached Peiping, and everyone in the family was very worried.The mother was most worried and kept sighing, asking her son to lead her troops to help her father. After receiving the order, she finally arrived.

King Yàn nodded and praised: Gao Xu defeated Wu Jie's army in one battle, eliminating a big trouble for me.

Zhu Gaoxu hurriedly said: The elite infantry of the government and the army are all in the hands of Sheng Yong and Ping'an, and the soldiers under Wu Jie are unbearable to fight.Wu Jie was unable to prepare in advance to guard the north side, and was caught off guard and was almost defeated!My son just wanted to make a mistake.

King Yàn smiled reluctantly and said: "You are never tired of deceitful soldiers. Who can Wu Jie blame himself if he is not prepared?"Xu Kai was arrested last time and even called me a sneak attack!

The generals next to him laughed after hearing this, as if they were mocking Xu Kai.

Zhu Gaoxu said: Ping An’s men are not that easy to deal with. The son first saw his right wing turbulence and thought he could be defeated by side, but unexpectedly, he still failed to help his father break through the formation, allowing Ping An to stay until dark.

Yàn Wang Dao: You are right!The official army first lost all the elite cavalry, but now all the infantry can fight in the hands of two people; Sheng Yong's infantry camp was even more powerful, and his infantry skills were far superior to Ping'an.But they didn't have many elite soldiers, and other officials and soldiers were not so brave and good at fighting.In the future, as long as we do not underestimate the enemy, we will still be able to defeat the official army!

The Yàn army suffered a great loss just a while ago, and then the Yàn king made the generals gradually regain their confidence.Zhu Gaoxu admired his father very much for some of the methods.

King Yàn looked back and looked bright, without any sign of depression, and encouraged everyone: The weather was severe and the soldiers were working hard. Our army returned to Peiping first, and wait for the weather to warm up a little, then headed south to defeat the official army!

The prince is wise!All the generals bowed.

After saying that, everyone returned to the camp to rest for a while.After only three hours of rest, the next day, the Yàn army drove to the north before dawn.

...In the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival has not arrived yet, and the atmosphere of the New Year has not yet passed.But the Zhang family is different from other families. There is white cloth hanging on the door of the Zhang family, and there is a sarcastic sound inside and outside, and it is doing funerals.

In the mourning hall, the Taoists played percussion instruments and sang lyrics to save the dead.The lead singer holding a bronze turtle and chanted for a while, then bowed and told his family: Goodbye!

The families who were kneeling on the cushion and wearing mourning clothes followed and kowtowed to the spiritual position.

A group of women cried the most fiercely and almost fainted.

Zhang Fu, who was kneeling in front, did not make a sound, but his eyes were red and there were tears on his face.

While Zhang Fu was sad, he suddenly felt something else: responsibility.

When my father was there, he had an important place in the Yàn Palace.

Whether it is outside or at home, my father has the final say, and it is also my father who supports the big beam.

Zhang Fu only needs to do his duty under the protection of a halo.

But now, my father lies into the coffin, and the lobby is full of a large family, most of whom are women and children.Who is this big family relying on?

Zhang Fu felt that when he stood up and carried the rise and fall of the entire family, it suddenly came!

He was a little heavy and a little trembling, but after kowtowing, he knelt in front of the spirit and raised his chest.A feeling of responsibility surged in my heart.

Zhang Fu listened to the Taoist priests singing and the crying of his family in his ears, and he kept saying nothing.

In the lengthy etiquette of the temple, he thought a lot... He only used his father's merits and accumulation during his lifetime, so a huge family could not last long.

He, Zhang Fu, must do more on the basis laid by his father.

The Taoist priests were on the temple for a while, and the Taoists were resting for a while.The guests came in one after another, bowed to Zhang Yu's coffin and spiritual seat, and said something to Zhang Fu to comfort his family.

After Zhu Neng came in, he walked straight to the coffin without the coffin board and squatted beside him and looked at Zhang Yu inside.

Everyone looked at each other, and seeing that Zhang Fu didn't say anything, everyone did not interfere.

Zhang Fu let Zhu Neng mutter inside.

There were many guests here today. From this scene, Zhang Fu felt that the Zhang family's connections were still there, and everything did not really collapse.

The king is here!Suddenly someone shouted.

Zhang Fu didn't care much, so he got up from the cushion and met the door, looking sad.I saw that King Yàn and his three sons came, and they were wearing simple robes.

Zhang Fu cried out and was about to kneel down.King Yàn held it with one hand, Zhang Fu, mourned and followed the changes.

With his father's unfulfilled wish, his son will do his best... Zhang Fu cried sadly.

Very good, ambitious.King Yàn nodded.

He walked into the mourning hall and went straight to the coffin, looking at the corpse inside and said, Zhang Yu Ah, you have left too early.Please feel free to close your eyes. As long as I am here, I will protect you.

Zhang Fu hurriedly said: My father knows you in the spring, and I will thank the prince for his kindness!

King Yàn lamented a few times, bowed to the coffin, turned around, grabbed Zhang Fu's wrist and walked out, turned around and said to his three sons, "You go and salute too."

King Yàn pulled Zhang Fu under the eaves outside and said: All the generals of the royal palace, I am the closest to your father.

Zhang Fu bowed and listened.

King Yàn continued: My eldest daughter-in-law mentioned that before, and she wanted your sister to be the prince’s second concubine, but your father...ah!

What the prince said was that the last general and the younger brothers and sisters must be filial.Zhang Fu said.

The Princess had mentioned this matter long ago. Zhang Yu did not comment on it before and said he wanted to ask King Yàn, but King Yàn never mentioned it.

In fact, according to Zhang Fu's considerations, he coincided with his father Zhang Yu, and he was unwilling to marry the prince so early!

He actually thought it was okay if his sister was the official concubine, but he just thought it was too early... Who doesn’t know the contribution of King Yàn’s second son, King Gaoyang?

Although the prince is the eldest son of the King Yàn, he is so fat and useless!

What happened next is really hard to explain for a moment.

At this time, King Yàn said again: I agreed, and I was about to find an opportunity to talk to your father.Now you can only wait for a while, and you will be filial to Zhang Yu first.But don’t worry, your father is gone, and I will decide for your brother and sister.

When Zhang Fu heard this, he knew that everything was a foregone conclusion and that his little thought of waiting and watching was useless.

King Yàn has made up his mind, but he, Zhang Fu, dares to refuse?King Yàn is still there. If Zhang Fu wants to show his intention to choose a person, then the Zhang family will face a situation where sooner or later they will finish their game!

Zhang Fu immediately bowed: Everything is just follow the arrangements of the prince.
