More than twenty days have passed since the army set off, and no news of victory has been returned yet. Zhang Shi can't help but feel a little uneasy. This time he made a huge gamble and staked all his belongings. Naturally, he won.

It's easy to say, if he loses, not only his Zhang family, but also the entire Liangzhou people will be annihilated.

However, he was just uneasy and did not worry too much, because he had a bargaining chip in his hand, and the bargaining chip was Yunfeng! For this son-in-law who had repeatedly brought him surprises, he believed that he would not be surprised this time.

He is disappointed.

In the study, a solitary lamp was swaying unsteadily in the breeze, and the dim firelight was also swaying gently, causing wisps of faint blue smoke to rise and slowly dissipate in the air.

Inexplicably, a feeling of sadness welled up in Zhang Shi's heart. Although Zhang Lingyun used her skillful hands to regulate his body, his own situation was clear to him. Now Zhang Shi's physical strength and thinking and reaction speed are worse than those in the previous two years.

There has been a more obvious decline.

'Alas, time is not forgiving!' Zhang Shi sighed. However, compared with this, he had another biggest worry, that is his only son Zhang Jun. In his opinion, if Zhang Jun can be worthy of

Half of Yunfeng, no! Even if he only has one skill, he can leave with a smile in a few years. However... Zhang Shi is speechless.

To make matters worse, although he sought medical treatment everywhere, his hidden illness still showed no signs of improvement, making his expectations of giving birth to another son and inheriting the throne increasingly slim.

'Is Liangzhou really going to be passed on to that ineffective abuser in the future? No, it must not be passed on to him, otherwise, my Liangzhou will fall into the hands of others in a few years. Alas, I, Zhang Shi, can't think of it

After working hard and working hard for half a lifetime, I ended up with no successor!'

Zhang Shi couldn't help but feel sad again, and thought hard about how to solve this biggest worry.

'Yes, maybe such behavior can be justified!' In despair, Zhang Shi suddenly had an idea! 'It seems that we have to urge the boy, let him and Lingyun give birth to an heir as soon as possible, and adopt him to me.

Zhang family, isn’t that enough? How can I say that it’s not good on my body?

With my bloodline, and these two are both talented, I think the children they will give birth to will be no different! Okay, let’s do it like this. After returning to school, I have to talk to that kid in person, hum.

, if he dares to do it or not, I will break his legs!"

Unexpectedly, Zhang Shi was in such a good mood that he was stroking his beard and giggling. At this moment, a voice came from outside the house: "Why are you so happy? Can you share it with Zi Xi?"

"Huh?" Zhang Shi looked up and saw four people walking in from outside the house. The leader was Zhang Jun, followed by three people wearing servant clothes, but they all looked familiar. When he looked again, it was Zhao Yang and

Yan Sha! I couldn’t recognize the last person.

Suddenly, Zhang Shi felt something in his heart. Logically speaking, if Zhao Yang and Yan Sha wanted to see him, they had to go through notification. Now they walked in swaggeringly behind Zhang Jun, and dressed up like slaves, making him

There was a bad feeling in my heart.

"Zhao Yang, why did you come back when you weren't staying at the front line?" Zhang Shihe asked.

"Haha, I have met the envoy." Zhao Yang raised his hand casually and said with a smile: "I came here specifically to tell you the good news. Our army has defeated Youziyuan and beheaded 56,000 people.

level, captured 40,000 people, and the general has been on the road non-stop since last night, just to let you know about this as soon as possible."

"Oh?" Zhang Shi couldn't help but feel a burst of ecstasy in his heart, but then he remembered the abnormality of these people in front of him. After being an official for so many years, he still had the most basic city government. So, he remained unmoved.

He responded lightly, waved his hand and said: "General Zhao, thank you for your hard work. I will go to the state capital tomorrow to reward you for my merits. Now that it is late today, you all should step aside, and it is time for me to rest."

But the four of them still stood there, which made Zhang Shi feel even more uneasy. His face suddenly sank, and he said without any doubt: "Why don't you retreat? If you have anything to do, we will talk to the prefectural government."

Zhang Jun shook his head, smiled slightly and said: "Ah Weng, I have a favor to ask of you."

"What's the matter? Just tell me."

"Aweng, you are old, but you are still working hard for the state affairs. Zixi often looks at you, and you can't bear it in your heart. For my sake, please give up your seat to Zixi, and let Zixi manage Liang for you.

Isn’t this the best of both worlds?”

Zhang Shi's face changed suddenly, and a senseless anger surged into his heart, but he suppressed it immediately. His face showed a look of relief in an instant, and he stroked his beard and said: "My father's health has been getting worse in the past two years.

Already overwhelmed, difficult

My father is very happy to have such filial piety in the public court. Haha, in that case, it is my father's promise! Tomorrow I will gather the staff at the state capital and pass the seal to you in person. As a father, you can do things every day.

, but it is also one of the great pleasures in life.”

"Huh?" Zhang Jun was stunned. He didn't expect Zhang Shi to be so easy to talk to. He couldn't help but feel a little regretful. If he had known this, he might as well have come in alone. Why did he have to bring the three of them with him?"

Liu Hong was secretly cursing Zhang Jun, and he was coaxed to death in just a few words. He quickly winked at Zhao Yang and Yan Sha, then took a step forward and said with a smile: "Ignorant Liu Hong,

Do you still remember Duke Xiping?"

Zhang Shi thought for a moment and suddenly realized: "It turns out that the Immortal is here, but I am not far away to welcome him. The study is simple, so I can't expect the Immortal to come. Come and follow me to the main hall. I will personally serve wine to welcome the Immortal."

." As he said that, he supported Liu Hong affectionately and strode out with his head held high.

Liu Hong smiled coldly and stopped Zhang Shi: "Xiping is a good city, you must have already guessed what the four of us did? Your delaying strategy can only coax the public court, hum! Mingren

Don't tell secret words, as soon as Mr. Xiping leaves this room, I'm afraid the four of us will die without a burial place!" Then, he shouted to Zhang Jun: "The public court should take action quickly!"

"Come..." Zhang Shi just opened his mouth and was about to shout for help, but Liu Hong tightly covered his mouth. At the same time, Zhao Yang and Yan Sha rushed up from the left and right, respectively.

He held Zhang Shi's arms.

Unfortunately, Zhang Shi was a civil servant and was old and frail. How could he be a match for these two military generals in their prime? He couldn't move all of a sudden. He could only moan "Uuuuu~~" and shake his head desperately.

He stared at Zhang Jun with his eyes wide open!

"Master Immortal, hasn't my father already agreed to give the throne to his disciples?" Zhang Jun hesitated.

Liu Hong couldn't help but feel anxious and cursed: "You idiot, you are the only one who believes in him. If we let this old man go today, none of us will survive until dawn! Could it be that you have forgotten how he treated Yu?"

You? Don’t you want to stay and fly together with your sister? Do you still want to do Liangzhou Mu? Hmm? Why don’t you do it quickly?”

Zhang Jun's face turned blue and white, sweat broke out on his forehead, and his whole body was shaking violently. Scenes of scenes flashed in his mind quickly, including his father's scolding and his sister's marriage, becoming more and more clear!

Gradually, a ferocious look appeared on his face, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Aweng, it was you who forced Zixi to go down this road! If you want to blame, it's your own fault. Please forgive Zixi for offending!" and said from his arms.

He took out a dagger and was about to stab forward!

"Wait a minute!" Liu Hong quickly stopped him: "You can't leave any wounds on your body, otherwise others will see your flaws."

"Use this!" Yan Sha took out a piece of cloth from his arms and threw it at Zhang Jun.

"Dang 锒~!" With a sound, Zhang Jun let go of his hand and the dagger fell to the ground. He took the cloth and suddenly stepped forward. He wrapped his hands around Zhang Shi's neck and twisted it again.

, and pulled it hard to both sides.

While being strangled, veins appeared on Zhang Jun's wrists, his eyes were red, he was moaning and shaking his head back and forth, as if he was crazy.

The time may be short, but Zhang Jun feels that it is very long, and every breath is very uncomfortable for him. He does not know how long it has passed, but he only feels that his father's twisting range is getting smaller and smaller, and his body is getting smaller and smaller.

So soft, he finally lowered his neck and stopped struggling, but his eyes were still wide open with anger!

Die with your eyes open!

"Okay, that's enough." Seeing that Zhang Jun was still strangling him, Liu Hong stopped him.

"Are you ready?" Zhang Jun stopped and looked at his hands in disbelief. A dull expression gradually appeared on his face.

Liu Hong smiled coldly, patted his shoulder and advised: "Gongting, don't think too much, you just need to remember that now you are the shepherd of Liangzhou, and you can control millions of lives and deaths in your hands! Okay, I am the third teacher.

I’m going to leave this place now, what should I do next? I don’t need to tell you more.”

Zhang Jun was refreshed and nodded: "Master Immortal, please rest assured, I understand how to behave."

"Yes!" Liu Hong responded and asked Zhao Yang and Yan Sha to carry Zhang Shi to the mat and place it. He picked up the cloth and dagger and checked the room again. Nothing was wrong with the three of them.

Then he went around from the back.

Suddenly! "Ah Weng, Ah Weng, what's wrong with you? Wake up quickly! Someone come quickly, someone come quickly..." A loud cry rang out, especially in the dark night.
Chapter completed!
