Chapter 644 A Failed Act of Filial Piety(2/2)

Zhang Xian pretended to be shocked, "I heard the report from the Imperial Medical Office in Chunri. Didn't I say that King Jing's condition has improved a lot? I don't want to be so seriously ill."

With that said, Zhang Hao looked at Gao Baorong reproachfully, "King Jing is seriously ill, so he should be recuperating in a quiet room. Even if he comes, why can't he be carried here on a bed?"

Gao Baorong raised his head, looked at Zhang Yan and replied: "Chengyu is the property of the emperor, how dare I use it indiscriminately. When the Holy Emperor arrives, Gao Jia'an dares to wait in his quiet room."

"Chief Virtue, you are really confused. The Gao family has set an example for the world by accepting land and devoting it to others. Why should you be so careful?"

After saying that, Zhang Gao walked over, held Gao Congjie's hand on the hospital bed, and then shouted to his left and right: "King Jing is using a carriage in the palace, hurry up and bring it up."

Gao Congjie had always been seriously ill, but now that he was given the stimulation of Sanzhou and Gao Baoxu's ten sons running away, he almost suffered a stroke.

He looked at Zhang Hao, his mouth was speechless, but his eyes were full of hope.

Zhang Xi promised Gao Congjie that he could stay in Jiangling. Although Gao Congjie had already done this, he still hoped that Zhang Xi could keep his promise and prevent Nanping from ending in his hands.

As soon as Zhang Yan saw that Gao Congjie had suffered a stroke, he immediately felt relieved. The stroke had already affected him so much that he didn't have many days left. Even if he didn't die, he wouldn't be able to control the situation again.

So Zhang Gao issued an order in front of Gao Congjie's Hu bed: "King Gao Congjia of Jing, who has made great contributions to the land, will be granted an additional settlement of 3,000 households. The actual settlement is 100 households in Yicheng. He will be granted the title of Taifu and the prince will be given three robes."

Tao, Jiangling city power is still retained as regent."

When Gao Congjie on the hospital bed heard Zhang Yan say this, tears of gratitude fell down. He looked sideways at Gao Baorong beside him. Gao Baorong immediately knelt down and knelt down to Zhang Yan three times.

"My minister, Gao Baorong, thanks Your Majesty for His grace on behalf of my father!"

Zhang Gao nodded and immediately had Gao Congjie carried into the palace. Gao Baorong was brought to his side by Zhang Gao, and he ordered Gao Congjie's fourth son, Gao Baoshen, to take care of Gao Congjie.

Zhang Gao took Gao Baorong's hand and walked to Guangde Hall, the main hall of Jingwang Palace.

"Who among the Nanping Navy and Army think the Chief Toku can entrust with important tasks?"

If Gao Congjie is retained and Gao Congjie is retained, the title of Nanping's country may not be removed for the time being, but the power of all parties in Nanping must be grasped.

Gao Baorong quickly said to Zhang Gao: "It is up to the saint to decide who should be considered, and it is not for me to comment. Please lead the Gao clan to Tokyo to settle down."

Zhang Gao waved his hands repeatedly, "I have always known virtue and good conduct. Now that I have accepted the soil, I will not doubt you.

I heard that your brother Gao Bao Xu is rushing to Ezhou. I am afraid that he will lead the navy of the Southern Tang Dynasty to come, and I also ask the chief minister to quickly recommend good generals to stabilize Jiangling."

Gao Baorong then said: "My brother's crime deserves ten thousand deaths. King Jing has expelled him from the Gao family's gate. I have made some mistakes that I have not investigated. Please ask a saint to punish me."

In the Jiangling navy, the commander Wei Lin has both political integrity and talent, and is brave and powerful. This time he defeated the rebel general Li Duan and others. Wei Lin has made great achievements, and I think he can be reused."

Zhang Zhang actually knew better than Gao Baorong that Gao Baoxu was going to the Southern Tang Dynasty, because Gao Baoxu's uncle had long been bribed by the Jinyi guards.

This hot potato was deliberately thrown by Zhang Yan to Li Jing and He Jingzhu, the governor of the Wuchang Army in Ezhou in the Southern Tang Dynasty.

At that moment, he said nonchalantly: "Gao Bao Xu is ambitious and has been planning for a long time. The virtue chief cannot investigate, and it is reasonable. He summoned Wei Lin to the Guangde Hall as soon as possible."

In the Guangde Hall, Wei Lin was quickly called over. This man was actually only about twenty years old. His skin was dark and shiny. At first glance, he looked like the white stripes that often come and go in the water.

"Why didn't you follow Gao Bao Xu and others to flee to the Southern Tang Dynasty?" Zhang Hao asked coldly at first, and the atmosphere suddenly turned cold.

Wei Lin didn't panic at all, she cupped his hand and said to Zhang Gao.

"A certain person eats the salary of the Gao family. If the Gao family wants to fight, a certain person will fight to the death.

Now that the Gao family wants to donate land, I should lead an army to protect the Gao family and wait for the arrival of the Holy Emperor."

"Hahaha!" Zhang Hao clapped his hands happily, "He is indeed a loyal minister and a good general. No wonder he is highly recommended by the chief minister. Are you willing to take the imperial salary today?"

"The Gao family returns to the imperial court, and I am naturally willing to submit to the imperial court!" Wei Lin knelt on the ground and answered loudly this time.

Zhang Gao was overjoyed and continued to ask: "You are willing to submit, but I wonder if the seven thousand athletes of the Flying Tiger Army are willing to submit?"

Wei Lin replied loudly: "I heard that there are few naval troops in the imperial court. Now the Nanping Flying Tiger Army is a flying tiger on the river. If it can be the forbidden army, the whole army will be happy and willing to die for your majesty."

Zhang Gao immediately felt that this strategy was very good. He was short of water troops now. Nanping's Flying Tiger Army guarded the Jiangling Four Battles and defeated Ma Chu, Southern Tang and An Congjin who rebelled in Xiangyang in the past. Their combat effectiveness

It's quite good. It's still a good deal to be a member of the imperial army.

Zhang Gao immediately ordered that the entire Feihu Army be changed from the Nanping Navy to the Imperial Forbidden Army, which was called the Navy Feihu Town.

Appoint his adopted son Zhao Yanjin as the commander-in-chief of Feihu Town, and Wei Lin as the deputy commander-in-chief of Feihu Town, and let Wei Lin take Zhao Yanjin with him to do the reception work.

After getting the most important thing, Zhang Yan believed that Nanping Kingdom was the most worthy of his capture. Zhang Yan felt relieved. He looked around and found that an important person was missing, that is, the person who promoted Gao Cong's teachings to settle the land.

Sun Guangxian is dedicated and determined.

Zhang Yan immediately looked at Lu Yan, only to find that Lu Yan was smiling bitterly.

"Sage, Sun Mengwen said that he was greatly favored by the Gao family, and he also advised the Gao family to go to the ancestral temple, but he was really too embarrassed to see anyone and was staying at home."

Zhang Gao was stunned for a moment. Is Sun Guangxian so loyal?

He couldn't help but touch a few strands of beard on his chin, and then said to Lu Yan: "Then please ask Wen Bing to go and persuade Sun Guangxian."

Lu Yan raised his hand with a serious expression, "Sun Mengwen is an important minister of Nanping. He has been in charge of Nanping's political affairs for fifteen years. He has always been virtuous and has made great contributions to the court.

Please ask your Majesty to send important officials from the clan to invite such a great talent to show your Majesty's courage to embrace all rivers."

Zhang Gao understands, Lu Yan wants Zhang Gao to engage Corporal Li Xian in a big way!

Now Jiangling has just been pacified. Although the Zhou army has strict discipline and no rape or robbery, the people are still very afraid.

If we can now create a drama in Jiangling City that the people like to see the emperor courting the virtuous and corporal, and thirsting for talents, it will immediately send a very stable signal to the people of Jiangling.

"Sage! I would like to invite Mr. Sun!" Zhang Zhang, a small man with a helmet and armor, jumped out immediately.

Zhang Gao went on this expedition and brought out his eldest son Zhang Xiancun, who was about to be fifteen years old.

The first is to let him see the market, and the second is that this boy has recently been having an affair with Huajianshi's daughter, Princess Yong'an, the youngest daughter of Emperor Mingzong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Siyuan.

Zhang Gao had no intention of having a grandson at this time, so he brought Zhang Xiancun out.

"It's rare for my son to ask for help. Then change your robes and ask your sworn brother to lead a hundred soldiers to escort you. You know what to do, right?"

Zhang Xiancun raised his hand and said, "You know, I should start from King Jing's Palace with a full guard of honor, go around the city to Sun's Mansion, and then make a loud plea in front of Sun's Mansion."

The boy is quite smart!

And Zhang Hao thought about it for a moment, the people close to him now, Dunzhu and Barbarian Bear, would definitely not be able to do this.

Among the adopted sons, only Zhao Yanjin and Yang Jiye are present. They are both warriors, so they are not suitable. Only Zhang Xiancun seems to be more suitable.

Lu Yan also agreed very much, "The Marquis of Shanshan is a knowledgeable, courteous and intelligent man, so he is the most suitable candidate."

According to Zhang Zhou's rules, a prince will not be given a title when he is under fourteen, and a prince who is under sixteen will not be given a title of prince or above.

Zhang Xiancun received the title of Marquis of Shanshan only last year, and he is the only prince who has this title.

After Zhang Xian agreed, Zhang Xiancun immediately changed into the royal uniform of a prince. Although his title was a marquis, Zhang Zhou's princes were all allowed to wear the imperial uniforms that could only be worn by princes.

After Zhang Xiancun left, Zhang Gao continued to summon Nanping's senior generals Liu Fu, Li Jingwei and others.

Use these people as they can, and if not, they will be detained immediately. At the same time, people will be sent immediately to Xiazhou (Yichang) and Guizhou (Zigui) under the guidance of Minister Gao.

Jiangling City alone is not the whole of Nanping. Xiazhou and Guizhou must be captured to avoid being taken advantage of by Hou Shu.
