Zhu Wen stared at the woman, and quickly asked, "Are you the daughter of the former governor of Songzhou?"

The woman raised her head, forced a glance at Zhu Wen, and said yes in a low voice.

Zhu Wen was overjoyed, and quickly helped the other party to sit down, and then waved for everyone to retreat. The generals didn't know why, but seeing Zhu Wen's appearance, they didn't want to ask any more questions, so they left in a hurry. At the end, he didn't forget, and took the remaining women away.

The woman was trembling and did not dare to sit down, like a frightened little elk. She glanced at Zhu Wen, and Lihua's rainy face was full of fear. Seeing her like this, Zhu Wen quickly explained: "Girl, don't be afraid, you and I It's a fellow countryman, you must have been shocked by the sudden military disaster this time, but when you come to me, you don't have to worry at all, with me, Lao Zhu, no one can hurt you!"

With that said, Zhu Wen immediately ordered the soldiers outside the door to prepare clean clothes, meals and soup.

The woman was flattered, and quickly thanked her. Zhu Wen's attitude became more accommodating, and his voice became gentle. He asked, "I don't know if the girl has any family members? If you are also in Tongzhou, just tell Lao Zhu to know and promise to reunite you! "

The woman's surname is Zhang, and her name is Zhang Hui. She doesn't know Zhu Wen, a fellow villager, and she doesn't know why the other party knows her, but she is always the daughter of the governor, and more people know her than she knows. There is no need to lie to her, and timidly replied: "My father has passed away, and my mother has also separated. My family followed the villagers and wandered here. I never expected to meet the general."

Zhu Wen was taken aback when he heard the words, and then he called his own soldiers, asked about Zhang's mother's appearance, and ordered everyone to look for it.

Seeing Zhu Wen's behavior like this, Zhang Hui immediately lost his doubts about him, and dared to look up at him. The general in front of him was very heroic and masculine. .

Zhu Wen sat down next to Zhang Hui, rubbed his hands together and giggled, the woman he had been thinking about for many years was now in front of him, and it was such an encounter.

Facing the delicate beauty, Zhu Wen just stared at her, and didn't know what to say for a while, until Mrs. Zhang lowered her head shyly.

As a member of the army, Zhu Wen is used to being straightforward, so he immediately said directly: "To be honest, in the first year of Qianfu, when I saw the girl in Songzhou, I was astonished as a heavenly man, and even followed her all the way in the car." At that time, I had already fallen in love with the girl. Later, when I joined the army, I couldn't help myself and had no time to see the girl. When I became a lieutenant general, I learned that the girl was no longer in Songzhou, so I kept inquiring about the girl, but it was useless. I once made an oath that I would never marry a girl in this life. I have been fighting all these years, and I am still alone, without a wife and concubine. It is God's will to meet a girl again today, and it is not in vain for Lao Zhu to wait for many years! "

Zhu Wen's blunt words, Zhang Hui couldn't bear it, and immediately blushed to the base of his neck, buried his head and dared not speak.

Seeing her like this, Zhu Wen felt more and more lovable, pleasing, and really a good match. But he didn't continue to say anything, and called the maid and maid, and took Mrs. Zhang to another courtyard for resettlement.

Within two days, Zhang's mother was actually found by Zhu Wen. When the mother and daughter met each other, after a lot of hugging and crying, they all thanked Zhu Wen.

Zhu Wen was not polite, and in front of Zhang's mother, he expressed his feelings for Zhang. The mother and daughter are rootless duckweeds, how could they refuse Zhu Wen. In this way, after a while, Zhu Wen chose a good day and auspicious day, and married the Zhang family into the door.

As a newlywed, Zhu Wen spends every day with his lovely wife, living a very happy life.

Zhu Wen was in the market, and before he made his fortune in the army, his ambition was to "be an official as Zhi Jinwu, and marry a wife as Yin Lihua". , All the ideals of life have been realized, which can be described as extremely proud.

However, it didn't take long before Huang Chao issued an order for Zhu Wen to attack Wang Chongrong, the governor of Hezhong.

Zhu Wen was unwilling in every possible way, but he couldn't help but have a military order like a mountain, and Huang Chao sent someone to supervise the army, so he had to prepare food and grass, take soldiers and horses, bid farewell to his wife, and set off for the river.

"Wang Chongrong, the Jiedu envoy in Hezhong, had already defected to Daqi, but because His Majesty sent him to fight many times, he was too troublesome, so he surrendered and rebelled. This time Wang Chongrong united with the nearby towns and clamored to help the Tang Dynasty. I heard that Li Ye and Li Keyong are about to join forces." On the way, the confidant and aide Xie Tong, found an opportunity to talk about the whole story of the battle with Zhu Wen.

Zhu Wen's face was gloomy, he didn't say a word, he didn't know what he was thinking.

...

"Zhu Wen has dropped?"

"Down!"

In the big tent, Li Ye couldn't help laughing after hearing Song Jiao's return. He knew that Zhu Wen would surrender, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

Li Ye let Song Jiao sit down by herself, turned to face her, and asked with great interest, "How did Zhu Wen come down?"

Song Jiao smiled: "No matter when, there is never a shortage of good ministers and famous generals in the world, it just depends on whether the monarch can use them. What happened to Zhu Wen today, I don't know how many people have experienced it before, including your father."

After expressing a sigh of emotion, Song Jiao slowly talked about the original story: "Zhu Wen was reluctant to go to Hezhong, and the supervision of the army was strict, and he was dictating military affairs, which made it impossible for Zhu Wen to arrange troops reasonably. When Wang Chongrong's army came to battle, Zhu Wen was defeated and retreated in embarrassment. Wang Chongrong took advantage of the situation and marched forward, stationed troops in the Weishui River, facing Zhu Wen across the river. Huang Chao asked for help. Not only did Huang Chao fail to send reinforcements more than ten times in a row, but instead he reprimanded Zhu Wen for supporting the troops with self-respect, the battle was not good, and he refused to use his life. Zhu Wen was furious."

After Song Jiao finished speaking, she looked at Li Ye and waited for him to answer.

Li Ye laughed and said, "Zhu Wen is furious, so it's not enough to rebel."

Song Jiao snorted, seeing that Li Ye was not troubled, she had to continue: "Afterwards, Zhu Wen found out what was going on, and found out that it was Lieutenant Meng Kai who secretly slandered Huang Chao. Speaking of which, Zhu Wen and Meng Kai are not very close. The enmity is just that after Zhu Wen captured Tongzhou, Meng Kai relied on his position in the center and asked Zhu Wen for a bribe, but Zhu Wen refused to give it, so Meng Kai held a grudge."

Li Ye nodded: "Warning abroad, but not being trusted by the king, the way to lead the army will come to an end, then what?"

Song Jiao said: "Xie Tong, Zhu Wen's aide, told him that Huang Chao started in the grass, took advantage of the decline of the Tang Dynasty, entered the pass, and occupied Chang'an. The country is easy to come by, and the fall is bound to be quick. Now that the emperor of Tang is in Shu, all the soldiers and horses are willing to serve the emperor of Tang. It can be seen that although the Tang Dynasty is declining, the hearts of the people are still there, and it will not perish. Moreover, the general is fighting outside, but he is defeated by the little People are slanderous inside, such meritorious service is also useless, and ineffective merit is a great demerit, and sooner or later they will inevitably suffer disaster. It is wise for Zhang Han to carry Qin back to Chu, and please think twice." Li Ye took a sip of tea, opened his folding fan and shook it, Even though it's autumn, the tent is still quite hot, he smiled: "Xie Tong's words are not bad, Zhu Wen is a sensible person, he knows how to choose."

After glancing at Song Jiao, Li Ye smiled even more: "Who is the person you arranged beside Zhu Wen? How can you even know such a conversation?"

Song Jiao proudly raised her exquisite chin, leaning on the old to sell the old: "There is nothing that the Tsingyi Yamen wants to know."

"I'm afraid that after Zhu Wen killed Yan Shi, the supervisor, and decided to submit to the court, these things will not be hidden from the public, right? Then if Xie Tong's important advice is adopted, he will naturally have to brag about it, to show his talent and strength. Status." Li Ye said calmly.

Song Jiao glared at Li Ye in embarrassment, obviously she was told by Li Ye that the situation couldn't be passed, she said angrily: "Do you know everything? Why don't you want to work in the Tsingyi Yamen? If not, I can go back !"

Li Ye was teased by Song Jiao and laughed. Although this beautiful woman is not young, she exudes a mature charm, and she will seduce Li Ye with winks when she is fine, but I have to say that she looks like she is angry from embarrassment. The girl is as angry as she is, very cute.

Before Zhu Wen took action, he wrote a letter to his wife Zhang Hui. Zhang Hui strongly supported him in doing so, so Zhu Wen no longer had to worry about the future. Then write a letter to Wang Chongrong and ask the other party to act on behalf of the court.

After Wang Duo knew about this, he was very excited and immediately played for Zhu Wen. The two memorials were passed to Chengdu. After Li Yan read them, he was very happy and said to the left and right: "This is the brave general bestowed on me by heaven!"

In a few days, Li Yan canonized Zhu Wen as General Zuo Jinwu, and also served as Deputy Envoy in the Hezhong camp to recruit, and gave him the name Quanzhong.

So Zhu Wen changed suddenly, from the general of Daqi to the general of Datang, and he was worthy of the name.

Since then, Zhu Wen and Wang Chongrong joined forces to fight against Huang Chao.

After Huang Chao got the news of Zhu Wen's rebellion against the Tang Dynasty, he trembled with anger. He dropped his bag and flipped the table, and killed several maids.

Outside a palace wall of Weiyang Palace, several Taoists of Zhongnan Mountain launched a secret method to pass the news to the Taoist gate of Zhongnan Mountain in time.

After Zhongnan Mountain Daomen got the news, they promptly notified the head of Tongguan, the Great Elder.

A few days later, the Taoists of Zhongnan Mountain who gathered in Chang'an received news from the Taoist school: leave Chang'an and seek refuge with Zhu Wen.

Zhu Wen first conquered Dengzhou, then swept Fengxiang, Binning, Xiasui and other towns, and finally conquered Danzhou, Fengling, and Tongzhou. It is said that Huang Chao's most brave general is also one of the worst. His surrender, and he surrendered because he was slandered by villains, had a great impact.

Zhu Wen's descent to the Tang Dynasty became a turning point in this war. Although it did not bring any intuitive follow-up results that would affect the overall situation, the towns all over the world knew from this that Huang Chao was unpopular and was not far from defeat.

What's more, Li Ye's tens of thousands of soldiers are about to join forces with Li Ke's 200,000 troops.

As a result, the Sifang Fanzhen army became more brave and fearless when fighting against Huang Chao's army.

After Li Ye finished speaking with Song Jiao, the scouts reported that Li Keyong's messenger had arrived outside the camp.
