The decoration is almost over. After the Spring Festival, Lao Gao will definitely resume three updates a day. Thank you for your support. ≤≤Xiao≤Say,

Dugu Shun didn't expect Dou Qing to be so frank. After a while, he smiled bitterly: "That's true. The Bohai will penetrate deeply in various counties in Hebei. It is said that many famous families also secretly communicate with the Bohai. I am very worried that Zhang Xuan's powerful force will be used by the Bohai Club."

Dou Qing shook his head secretly. When Dugu Shun saw Zhang Xuan fighting sharply in Qingzhou, he realized that this was a powerful force and was worried that he would be used by the Bohai Club. If he had brought him over earlier, what would he be worried about now?

Although he was a little dissatisfied, Dou Qing did not show it on his face. He smiled faintly: "I have been paying attention to this person, so I don't have to worry that he will surrender to the Bohai Association. So far, I have only seen him fight against the Bohai Association."

"How can I see it?"

Of course, Dou Qing would not say that he had much information about Zhang Xuan, but just said in a general way: "If he had supported the Bohai Association, the Bohai Association would have penetrated into Qingzhou long ago, but the Bohai Association has not opened up the situation in Qingzhou so far. There is also the former prefect of Beihai County, Liang Zhi, died mysteriously. Isn't it because Liang Zhi is from the Bohai Association?"

Dugu Shun was silent for a moment and said, "I'm afraid that the Hebei gentry and Bohai will have an unclear relationship. Now that he is married to the Hebei gentry, he will naturally become a relationship with the Bohai Association."

"This is not the case!"

Dou Qing smiled and said, "As far as I know, there are only two Hebei gentry families who are truly close to the Bohai Association. The Boling Cui family and the Bohai Gao family, and the Lu family should not have been attracted by the Bohai Association. Even the Boling Cui family is only a part of the tribesmen and the Bohai Association. These famous families will not easily take sides in politics, otherwise they should have perished long ago."

"What my brother said makes sense, I hope I am worried about nothing."

Dugu Shun changed the topic and asked as if nothing had happened: "How is the situation there?"

Dou Qing was slightly stunned. He suddenly realized that this was probably the real purpose of Dugu Shun looking for him. Since Dugu Shun turned to the Yuyuan family, Li Jiancheng's affairs have never been reported to Dugu Shun again. Dou Qing has always been secretly leading.

Is Dugu Shun going to interfere in the Li family again? Or is Dugu Shun's ambition starting to move again?

"I haven't been in good health some time ago. I haven't asked about it for a long time. Shude was doing this himself. Brother Dugu can write a letter to ask Shude directly."

He tactfully rejected Dugu Shun. Dou Qing asked tentatively again: "What happened to the Wagang Army?"

Dugu Shun nodded, "Zhang Xutuo and King Yang Qing of Xun reported to the court at the same time, impeaching each other for their unwillingness to suppress the Wagang bandits. This incident caused a lot of controversy in the court, and everyone knew that the two were not in harmony."

"What is the emperor's attitude?" Dou Qing asked again.

"He did not make any statement. He just ordered the Ministry of War to handle the matter properly."

Speaking of this, Dugu Shun couldn't help but snorted softly and asked with a mocking look: "Who do you think the Ministry of War will favor?"

Dou Qing shook his head, "Brother asked, knowingly!"

"It is indeed a question knowingly. I heard that Yang Qing secretly gave the Ministry of War 10,000 yuan a year, and Zhang Xutuo only gave dozens of jars of pickled vegetables. Even the three-year-old child knew what the result was. I heard that the Ministry of War found Zhang Xutuo's old story, saying that he had difficulty cooperating with anyone in the past, and also accused him of having a feud with local governments the previous year, causing the destruction of tens of thousands of militias in the four counties. This is obviously favoring Yang Qing."

"So where do you want to learn the real situation from Jiancheng, right?"

Although Dugu Shun wanted to win over Li Yuan, he was not as simple as asking about Li Jiancheng now. He had a deeper intention, but he could see that Dou Qing was deliberately avoiding him, so he stopped asking in depth. As Dou Qing said, he just went directly to ask his nephew Li Yuan.

Dugu smiled and turned around, "Next year Yang Guang will meet with the Turkic Khan in Fuqibo. Do you know?"

"I heard that, too, it seems that this matter is a bit abrupt?"

"In fact, it is not abrupt. Since the death of Qimin Khan, Yang Guang has not met with the current Shibi Khan. Therefore, Shibi Khan went south to pay homage to the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty this time, which was also considered as a courtesy of his ministers. More importantly, Yang Guang wanted to stabilize the Turks to realize his plan for the two capitals of the north and south."

Dou Qing was stunned, "What are the two capitals in the north and south?"

"Jiangdu is officially promoted to Nandu. I heard that Yang Guang plans to settle in Nandu in the future in autumn and winter. Return to Luoyang in spring and summer, which is the Beidu. It is said that this will make the north and south more integrated."

"This person just likes to mess around!" Dou Qing said coldly.

"Is it not good to make trouble?"

Dugu Shun's eyes narrowed, "If you don't make trouble, how can we have a chance?"

"I feel that my brother wants to rebuild Wuchuan Mansion again." Dou Qing clearly felt Dugu Shun's ambitions began to expand.

"It doesn't matter whether Wuchuan Prefecture is rebuilt. What's important is that we must seize the opportunity of Yang Guang's removal of the Bohai Association. It's time to prepare. For example, everyone gathers together, what do you think?"

"I agree with this plan. I wonder where my brother plans to have a party?"

"Of course it's Chang'an, and the time is set at the time of the Zhongyuan tribe's sacrifice. At that time, everyone will go back to Chang'an to worship their ancestors. It's the most appropriate time to gather at this time, and there will be no doubts from the court."

Dou Qing silently calculated the time. There was still a whole month, and the time was a little tight.

"Okay! Let's go and notify everyone, the time is on Zhongyuan Night, and the location is at Bao'en Temple."

Dugu Shun nodded slowly, "We have a decision!"

Since Zhang Xuan will officially lead his army to Jianghuai in late June, he has not been in the capital for much time, so the Lu family adopted Su Wei's suggestion and keep the marriage simple.

But then again, from the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, people did not care about the Six Rites and only performed worship ceremony, and even did not want the ceremony. This kind of simple marriage is still popular among the people of the Sui Dynasty because it saves money and trouble. Only the royal nobles restored the Six Rites.

Therefore, the Lu family agreed to adopt a simple marriage, and there was no problem at all. They only used Nacai. They asked for a marriage to greet each other three steps and asked for names. Naji and Nazheng were removed. Nacai must, which means that the matchmaker, as the saying goes, "There is no cloud in the sky, and there is no matchmaker underground, so it is called the Ming matchmaker's marriage.

The marriage time is set in late June. Two days before Zhang Xuan left the capital, the time was very tight. Lu Zhuo specially asked for half a month off and sent someone to Zhuo County to invite his grandfather to take charge of the marriage. This is also considered that Zhang Xuan's parents were not alive, and it would be a bit inappropriate if there was only the woman's parents, so there would be no problem with the grandfather.

There were eight days left on the day of marriage, and Zhang Xuan himself was also stunned. He had already sent people to transfer troops to Beijing, and he could no longer return to Beihai County. He had to transfer all his 20,000 troops to Xingyang County for temporary garrison. After he rushed to join, he led the army directly to Jianghuai to suppress bandits.

In addition to business affairs, Zhang Xuan also has to be busy with his marriage. He mainly prepares for the wedding and needs to purchase a lot of items.

There are also wedding bands, wedding girls, guests, wedding banquets, wedding room layouts, etc. He is confused about everything and does not know where to start.

Fortunately, Su Erniang was smart and capable, and she gave him great help.

In the morning, dozens of ox carts loaded with good furniture items slowly drove into Jiashanfang and stopped in front of Zhang Xuan's new house. A middle-aged man quickly stepped forward and asked Xu Tian, ​​the housekeeper who looked confused, and said, "This is General Zhang's house!"

"That's right! Are you?"

The middle-aged man took out a letter and smiled: "I am Jin Ming, the second steward of Pei's mansion. He will give General Zhang some items at the order of my master, and he will be fine."

After saying that, he waved his hand without waiting for Butler Xu to agree, "Pick down the things!"

More than a dozen civilians moved the furniture from the ox cart one after another, but the butler Xu Tian could not stop him and hurried back to the mansion to report.

Soon, Zhang Xuan also quickly walked out of the mansion. He received an imperial edict yesterday, asking him to enter the court today to meet the emperor. He had just changed his clothes and was about to set off, but he heard that the butler said that Pei's mansion had sent a lot of things, which made him not surprised. In any case, Pei Ju would also say that it would be strange if he would send a gift when he got married, just like other officials.

The furniture items on the ox cart were already loaded all over the floor. The housekeeper of Pei's mansion knew Zhang Xuan and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "General Zhang, this is my master who asked me to send it, it is his little intention."

Zhang Xuan went up to look at the furniture. They were all of the best golden nanmu, which was very finely made. There were even a few pieces of sandalwood furniture. Although they were not the most expensive red sandalwood, they were also made of precious wood.

During this period, Zhang Xuan has a deep understanding of the prices of various household items. These furniture are worth at least hundreds of gold. Not to mention ordinary families, even ordinary wealthy families may not be able to afford such expensive furniture. Pei Ju is really interested!

Although Zhang Xuan was not short of the furniture money, he would not turn Pei Ju away. He smiled happily and said, "Then please send the furniture to the house for me. I'll let my housekeeper arrange it."

The housekeeper Pei’s house was overjoyed and quickly waved his hand and ordered: “Move the things in!”

Everyone agreed and moved the furniture one after another. Zhang Xuan instructed the housekeeper again, "Please arrange it for me. I want to enter the palace immediately. I don't have time to ask about this."

"Don't worry, young master, I will make arrangements!"

The butler Xu Tian quickly called everyone to carry the furniture into the mansion, and the personal soldiers also ran out to help carry it.
