Chapter 183: Wu Mansion Guest, Blocking the Door Incident
The Wu family is low-key enough in Ningyuan City, let alone in the capital.
This mansion is not small, there must be more than ten or twenty acres, but the overall style is very simple, and there is no half-luxury element to be found, and it is mainly relaxed and comfortable.
Not to mention those princes and nobles, even the mansions of some rich families can't be compared, and they can't see that this is the mansion of the famous Ning Yuan Wu family in the capital.
Although Xu Changqing had not really settled down with Wu Sanmei at this time, Wu Xiang was obviously very satisfied with Xu Changqing, and the treatment of receiving Xu Changqing was extremely high.
It's a little pity that at this time, the brothers Wu Sangui and Wu Sanfu are still on the road to protect the Zu family, and they can only get to Beijing the day after tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, otherwise, today's first meeting will be complete.
Wu Family Hall.
Wu Xiangzai had already arranged the food and drinks in person, and warmly greeted Xu Changqing to sit down.
For Wu Xiang, Xu Changqing still has a lot of respect.
On the one hand, he is Wu Sanmei's father, which is an irreversible congenital condition, and furthermore, Wu Sangui and the Wu family were able to lay such a big foundation later, the head of the three feudatories, which directly determined the national fortunes of the Ming Dynasty to a large extent, and Wu Xiang seemed to have contributed a lot.
As the saying goes: "Wu Sangui is standing on the shoulders of giants." ”
After a few words of greeting, Wu Sanmei personally poured wine on the side, and Xu Changqing accompanied Wu Xiang to drink a few glasses of wine, and the atmosphere gradually became lively.
Seeing that Wu Xiang was about to start talking about business, Wu Sanmei pouted a little unpleasantly, but she also knew that the matter must be very important, and she didn't dare to play petty, so she retreated obediently.
Watching Wu Sanmei leave with pity, Wu Xiang smiled and said, "Virtuous nephew, when you first came to Beijing, you made this move, why are you in such a hurry?" ”
This point is deep, but Wu Sanmei's relationship is here, Xu Changqing of course understands that Wu Xiang wants to mention himself, and said respectfully:
"Uncle, you also know that the wind in Beijing has been a bit reversed recently, and the little nephew doesn't want to waste too much time in Beijing, so ...... Speaking of this, the little nephew is also a little impulsive, and even the third sister has to be wronged. ”
Wu Xiang smiled and nodded, and slowly took a sip of wine and said, "I am a Ming dynasty, a noble and a lowly martial artist, and I have been around for a long time. You are so brilliant in Liaodi this time, it is impossible not to make people jealous. It's mediocre not to attract envy. This matter, the old man was a little uncertain for a while. It's a good thing to say it's a good thing, but it's a bad thing, there are really some things that are not easy to deal with. ”
"I would like to listen to my uncle's advice."
Xu Changqing bowed his hand respectfully, making the appearance of listening to his ears.
Wu Xiang was even more satisfied with Xu Changqing's attitude, and said with a smile: "The suppression of martial artists by civil officials has been a long time, and this is nothing. Over the years, how many martial artists have been really asked? Those who are not in calamity do not do it. However, you have great achievements in your hands, so there should be no big problem in this regard. Now, the key is the emperor's attitude. ”
Xu Changqing's eyes narrowed slightly, and he had to admire Wu Xiang's old spiciness, worthy of being an old fritter who had stood through the wind and waves for a long time, easily peeled off the core, nodded with a busy smile, and waited for Wu Xiang's next words.
Wu Xiang took another sip of wine and said with a smile: "Virtuous nephew, you can be as calm as a mountain at this time, think about it, the emperor's attitude is very good." It's no wonder that after all, you are the descendant of Marshal Xu, and your bloodline is here. However, the problem is that it is not a big problem for you to pass this level at this time, but those literati are all grudges. After that, what do you think? ”
Xu Changqing didn't answer in a hurry, and was silent in thought.
At this point, some of Wu Xiang's things were also poor, and he wanted to tie himself to the Wu family's chariot, but he didn't know that he didn't plan to continue to mix in Liaodi at all.
Wu Xiang was not in a hurry, and looked at Xu Changqing with a smile.
After pondering for a long time, Xu Changqing said: "Uncle, don't hide it, the little nephew doesn't want to mix in Liaodi anymore, I have already explained to the emperor last night that I want to go to the northeast of Shandong." ”
"Yamatoku?"
Wu Xiang's complexion changed suddenly.
He didn't expect Xu Changqing to jump out of the circle like this, and jumped out of the circle of Liaodi.
Hong Chengchou, Wu Sangui, and Wang Tingchen's theory of 'guerrilla warfare' was still a secret in secrecy at this time, and the imperial court did not openly discuss it, so it was definitely impossible to go to Wu Xiang's side.
Xu Changqing thought about it for a while, and no longer concealed it, and briefly told Wu Xiang about the 'guerrilla warfare' in Liaodi.
"This ......"
Wu Xiang's old eyes were as big as copper bells for a while, and Xu Changqing really shocked him.
He originally wanted to control Xu Changqing through various means, but by this time, he had already understood that Xu Changqing had achieved momentum at this time, who could control Xu Changqing?
Especially the theory of guerrilla warfare, Wu Xiang couldn't help but be amazed.
Even though he had retired for several years, how could he not know that Xu Changqing's guerrilla warfare would be so powerful once it was implemented?
After a while, Wu Xiang shook his head and said with a smile: "Virtuous nephew, this matter, the old man is confused." You can even kill Huang Taiji, how can the old man's mind be speculated? The old man was confused, and he should punish himself with three cups. ”
As he spoke, Wu Xiang drank three glasses of wine in succession.
Xu Changqing thought that it would take a little more effort to persuade Wu Xiang, and there would even be conflicts, but he didn't expect this old man to soften so quickly.
But Xu Changqing soon came back to his senses.
If Wu Xiang didn't know how to be flexible, there would be no Wu family at this time.
"Uncle, I'm sorry for this matter."
"Nope."
Wu Xiang shook his head and looked at Xu Changqing with a more solemn gaze: "Virtuous nephew, the old man was narrow-minded before, and he only saw the present, but he didn't see the future. In everything, there is only one way to go to the dark, which is too thin. If you choose to go to Shandong, it must be the result of careful consideration, and the old man is not as good as you. You have such a sober mind at such an age, and the third sister is handed over to you, and the old man is relieved. ”
……
Speaking of plans for the future, Wu Xiang no longer tried to control Xu Changqing, and the atmosphere was suddenly a lot more relaxed.
Wu Xiang was no longer holding on to this at this time, and helped Xu Changqing think of a few ways to deal with this trend in a down-to-earth manner.
After all, it's an old fritter, a bad stomach, and it may not be enough to succeed, but with mud and bad things, it comes as soon as you open your mouth, one by one.
In this regard, Xu Changqing accepted all the orders.
Even if Emperor Chongzhen trusts himself very much, but, as the so-called preparedness, it is definitely better to have a few more ways to deal with it, and it is also to give Wu Xiang face.
To be honest, Xu Changqing was not surprised at all at this time.
It must be known that in history, even if Inspector Yuan was defeated again and again in Liaodi, and the dishes couldn't bear to look at him directly, Emperor Chongzhen swallowed his stomach when his teeth fell out, and he has been supporting Inspector Yuan!
This is the character of this master!
What I made an appointment, even if I kneel, I have to finish it.
Until the change of Jisi, the soldiers of the Eight Banners all hit the city of Jingshi, and Emperor Chongzhen couldn't bear it anymore, and directly took down Yuan Dushi, and Ling Chi was executed.
With Inspector Yuan's Zhuyu in front, Xu Changqing obviously wouldn't be so unreliable as Inspector Yuan.
In the future, as long as there are military exploits, Emperor Chongzhen will definitely be able to maintain his trust in himself until three years later.
However, three years later, Li entered the capital from Chengdu......
After chatting about politics, it also came to today's highlight, the marriage of Xu Changqing and Wu Sanmei.
Xu Changqing was prepared for this, and directly told Wu Xiang that he wanted to marry two wives.
Wu Xiang was suddenly a little unhappy.
However, he also knew that at this time, it seemed impossible for the Li family to let go.
The reason why Li Shizhong didn't breathe was to wait for the dust to settle down.
Soon, Wu Xiang nodded and agreed on the matter of marriage.
Xu Changqing was busy telling Wu Xiang about the plan he had discussed with his mother Yang.
After the Great Dynasty was rewarded, his mother Yang personally came to the Wu family in Beijing to propose marriage.
Wu Xiang nodded with satisfaction.
But just as Weng and his son-in-law finished chatting about business and wanted to have a drink to celebrate, outside, there was a sudden loud noise, and it seemed that many people were shouting slogans together.
Wu Xiang frowned suddenly, and beckoned the housekeeper: "What's wrong?" ”
The housekeeper had been waiting outside the door, and he didn't know, so he hurried out to check.
But before he could run a few steps, he hurried over like a house slave dog with a porter: "Master Lu, it's not good, it's not good." There were a lot of people outside the door, there were thousands, they, they wanted to see their uncle. ”
"Xu Changqing, you No. 1 thief in the Ming Dynasty, Sven swept the floor of the humble Qiuba, get out of here!"
"Xu Changqing, you despicable villain, I am not done with you today!"
"...... surnamed Xu"
The old housekeeper Wu Lu's face darkened immediately: "What kind of messy people dare to come and block the door of my Wu family?" Stick away! ”
"Plop!"
The house slave knelt down directly: "Master Lu, I can't help it, I can't help it!" Funing Marquis Zhu Guobi Zhu Ye, the fourth master of the Dingguo family, as well as Gong Dingyu Gong in the Ministry of War, Chen Gongzi of Chen Ge's hometown, and many small ones are not named, except for Xungui is the official master, really, I really can't afford to provoke it......"
"What?"
"This ......"
Wu Lu also panicked.
I thought it was just someone who didn't open their eyes to make trouble, who would have thought that it was actually such a big scene, and they hurriedly came over to report to Wu Xiang and Xu Changqing.
But at this time, Xu Changqing and Wu Xiang both heard it.
Wu Xiang's face was already pale.
This is no longer a matter of not giving Xu Changqing face, even taking them with the Wu family is also calculated.
Xu Changqing's brows were also furrowed, these people, they really don't know how to write dead characters, who is used to their stinky problems?!
At this time, Xu Changqing would definitely not let Wu Xiang come forward, and hugged his fists and said: "Father-in-law, you can rest here for a while, and leave this matter to the son-in-law to deal with." ”
The matter of marriage has been determined, and Wu Xiang and Xu Changqing naturally changed their respective names.
Wu Xiang originally wanted to say something, but after a moment, he nodded: "Virtuous son-in-law, these people are not good, you don't have to be impulsive!" ”
"Hmm."
Xu Changqing nodded, lifted his robe in front of him, and strode towards the door.
But just after going out a few steps, Ergou rushed over in a hurry, and said hurriedly in Xu Changqing's ear: "General, something happened, there is news from the palace, just at the end of today's dynasty, the Marquis of Funing and the Duke of Dingguo have impeached you." It is said that there are now more than 800 officials who have impeached you. ”
"Eight hundred?"
Xu Changqing was stunned for a moment, and his face couldn't help but become a little strange.
I'm afraid this matter is really going to be the precedent of the founding of the dynasty.
However, all kinds of foul language outside are getting louder and louder, although Xu Changqing doesn't want to pay attention to these jumping clowns, but this is the Wu family after all, so he glanced at Ergou and walked quickly towards the door.
At this time, the water outside the gate of Wu Mansion was already surrounded by water, and there were thousands of people gathered here, shouting and scolding loudly with all kinds of foul language.
Most of these people are well-dressed people, many of them have domestic servants around them, and the most inferior ones are Confucian robes, I don't know where they are hot-blooded young people.
And among them, there is a purple-robed man and a white-robed man as the leaders.
It is Zhu Guobi, the Marquis of Funing, and Xu Shengyuan, the fourth son of Xu Yunzhen's family, the Duke of Dingguo.
