Chapter 784: Private Banquet
Luoyang will not send an envoy to Chengdu Mansion with Cao Zhe for the time being, taking Feng Yi's words, it will seem too anxious, but he also suggested sending two bottles of light breech guns as a national gift, so that Cao Zhe will bring it back to Chengdu Mansion and dedicate it to the Shu lord Wang Yong and the generals of Shu.
In addition to the operation manual, Feng Yi also suggested contacting the Military Academy and sending instructors to urgently train the Shu envoy Cao Zhe's entourage, at least so that they could successfully launch projectiles after returning to Chengdu.
Feng Yi's suggestion is naturally not kind, but Cao Zhe can refuse it except for laughing?
Besides, perhaps only by bringing the two bottles of artillery back to Chengdu for direct demonstration will people not think that the Mongolian army's fiasco in Jinnan is so incredible and incredible, right?
The matter of Sichuan and Shu is not the most urgent, even if the monarchs and ministers of Shu State cannot accept Han Qian's proposal to welcome Wang Yong into Luoyang to settle down for a while, there is no problem in maintaining the status quo for the time being, and there is still enough buffer time for each other to negotiate.
However, after Sima De returned to Luoyang yesterday, he was much more urgent.
Sima De, of course, was much more anxious and anxious than Cao Zhe.
The Henan marching army and the second central marching camp army will launch an attack on Bianliang City at any time under the leadership of generals such as Han Yuanqi, Lin Haizheng, and Han Donghu.
And Liang Shixiong and Wei Bo's elite were wiped out in Xingyang, and Zhu Rang and Liang Ren seemed to have gathered sixty or seventy thousand soldiers and horses in Bianliang City, but there were not many elites to speak of.
Besides, the so-called Mengwu cavalry, in front of the Liang army's indestructible battle array and epoch-making artillery, is not it as fragile as paper paste?
Don't say that even if Bianliang is defended, it is impossible to hold it for a long time, Sima De is more worried that there are people in Bianliang City who are quick and see the opportunity, and directly launch a mutiny, binding Zhu Rang, Liang Ren and other war criminals to join the Liang, at that time, Sima Shi will raise the land of Xu Si again, what weight can it have, what value can it have?
Returning to the city from Liuyunguan, Han Qian took Wang Jun and Zhao Ting'er back to Shangyang Yuan directly, and Feng Yi was responsible for setting up a banquet to entertain Cao Zhe, Sima De and others.
The more Sima De thought about it during the banquet, the more he felt that he couldn't delay for a moment, and he didn't drink a few sips of wine, so he proposed to Feng Yi: "The sons and daughters of the Sima family have long admired and admired the king's grand strategy, generosity and benevolence, but De was able to see the king at first glance today, and he was broken by the king's demeanor at that time, and there were too many things he wanted to say, and they all stammered and forgot to say it. Now that I think about it, it's really uncomfortable to block my heart, it's still early, but I don't know if I can meet the king at this time and recount my admiration? ”
Seeing that Sima De was shameless and said the word admiration, Feng Yi smiled in his heart, and said that it was too late at this time, and Han Qian was rarely interested in traveling with the second concubine today, so he finally took a little leisure, and it was not appropriate to disturb state affairs anymore, and he would go to Lingyun Pavilion tomorrow to see if he could arrange a time, and ask Sima De to go to Shangyang Yuan to meet him.
"What about Li Junfu? Why didn't Lord Feng invite Li Junfu to the banquet? Sima De asked.
Li Zhihe and Tian Cheng were the two giants of the General Staff, and on the issue of accepting Xu Sijun's actions and cooperating with the attack on Bianliang, the two of them had more right to speak than Feng Yi
, Gu Qian, Han Daoming, Zhu Juezhong and other important ministers.
When he was in Liuyunguan, Sima De heard that Tian Cheng would go to Jinnan on behalf of Han Qian the day after tomorrow to reward the three armies and reward the great victory, and it was obvious that he would not directly interfere in the Hehuai war in a short time, since he couldn't see Han Qian, Sima De wanted to focus on Li Zhihe's work, and didn't want to continue to delay.
"Li Zhihe and Yao Xishui are officially brother and sister today, how can I be so boring to run to beg for disgust?" Feng Yi said.
"It's something that should be celebrated, but it's still a secret, but we should be able to bring drinks to congratulate each other." Sima De stared at Feng Yi almost pleadingly, thinking that if he couldn't see Li Zhihe, he wouldn't want to fall asleep tonight.
"Alright, then let's be an uninvited guest!" Feng Yi said.
…………
…………
Wang Jingrong and Yao Xishui left Liuyunguan directly today.
There are still many things to arrange and prepare for from the Guanjianglou disciples and the children of the northern fugitive clan who were captured by the great victory in Jinnan to sneak to Mobei, but after returning to Luoyang City, Li Zhihe just asked Wang Jingrong to follow Wang Zhe to leave first, and he took Yao Xishui back to the house.
Even if the possibility is extremely small, it is necessary to guard against the secret spies of the Muguls who have slipped through the net in Luoyang, and everything cannot be publicized for the time being.
However, Li Zhihe took Yao Xishui back to the house for a private gathering, and it was no problem.
How to deal with the northern fugitive clan was a top secret before, and Li Zhihe would not say anything to Su Hongyu when he went home.
When she saw Li Zhihe bring Yao Xishui back, Su Hongyu was really happy, and shouted for Chun Thirteen Niang to bring over the best wine she brewed and drink it.
There is no need for Li Zhihe to accompany them, the three of them women find a warm pavilion to have a good get-together.
Before Feng Yi and the others arrived uninvited, Su Hongyu was slightly drunk, sitting between Yao Xishui and Chun Thirteen Niang, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion:
"If Mrs. could have made up her mind to be the master and really marry Xishui to Han Qian, it should be a completely different situation, right?"
"Even if the temperament of cherishing water is not so stubborn, and Madame and Xinchanghou are unwilling to lie in wait, with Han Qian's methods and strategies, they are not even eaten by him to the point that there are no bones left?" Chun Shisanniang shook her head and said with emotion, "When I was in Liangzhou, I figured it out, but I couldn't fight at all, and I couldn't struggle, so why bother?" ”
Yao Xishui sighed faintly, and didn't want to think about the past, she left Liuyunguan, only to know that the reason why she was amnesty was to appease some details of the northern fugitive clan.
Li Xiu, Li Mo, Li Yan and others are all generals of the Liang Army at the moment, and Li Zhihe wrote several letters for her amnesty, and also personally went to the door to intercede during Li Xiu, Li Mo, and Li Yan during their return to Beijing, and asked for their consent and understanding, so that the amnesty was naturally approved.
Of course, in this process, Zhao Wuji and Ye Feiying also said a lot of things, after all, Li Zhen was a general in front of Zhao Wuji's account at this time.
Lu Qingxia and Zhou Yuan will not be amnestied, after all, they have to bear the most direct responsibility for the palace change and the death of Li Changfeng and even Li Pu, which is also the last strength of the Li family
Yes, but for Lu Qingxia and Zhou Yuan, it is not a good destination to stay in Liuyun Temple.
"But if you are willing to go north on this trip, everything will go well." Yao Xishui sighed lightly, her beautiful eyes that had grown wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were slightly raised, and she looked at the lights in the pavilion, and there was still a trace of worry in her eyes.
Chun Thirteen Niang laughed and said: "With Han Qian's means, I can't be cautious about fighting with you and me, Zhihe is now waiting for you to send good news from Mobei, and he will become the first canonized prince of the new dynasty." You don't need to worry that Han Qian will go back on his promise in the future. Since ancient times, tyrants have still killed, but they have no other means to control the situation. The monarch and the minister are jealous, that is, the king is threatened by the courtiers, and the ministers are worried that their talents and prestige will be suspicious of the king, so they are panicked. Tell me, does this exist in Luoyang? In any era, Zhihe can be called a famous general, but in Luoyang, Tian Cheng, Gao Shao, Wen Bo, Jing Zhen, Zhao Wuji, Feng Xuan, Li Xiu, Han Yuanqi, Chen Kun and Kong Xirong are fools, which one is worse than Zhihe? And these people got together, together with Han Qian, and they were all out of the crowd. Take this Jinnan victory as an example, will Kong Xirong's foolish goods be arrogant, or will Li Xiu and Han Donghu be arrogant and swell to self-righteousness? However, everyone is good, so that the monarch and the minister can be at peace, and there is no need to be suspicious, and there is no need to have the fear of accompanying the king like a tiger, how comfortable! ”
Yao Xishui thinks about it, he has been hit many times over the years, and he has never even had a chance to be a leader, who can still have delusions in his heart?
Chun Thirteen Niang was slightly drunk, and she was also interested in talking, and said: "Besides, even if you are worried about being suspicious, it is the Zhu family." You didn't see Zhu Juezhong and Chen Youzhen, and they all wanted to stuff Yunhe naked into Han Qian's quilt, so they felt relieved - however, Han Qian has been to the academy several times recently, and he has been accompanied by Yunhe, so maybe he has colluded with ......"
At this time, hearing Feng Yi's voice coming from the front yard, Chun Sanniang's slightly drunk suddenly woke up, and asked suspiciously, "What is he doing here at this time?" ”
After a while, I saw Li Yi coming over and invited the three girls to the front yard to meet Feng Yi and Sima De.
"What's going on at this time?" Su Hongyu asked curiously.
Obviously, they still accompanied the car to Liuyunguan during the day, but the night hasn't passed, and they came to her house again?
"Sima De hasn't settled down yet, so he told his father that he wants to see him again as soon as possible." Li Jin said.
"The Sima family can't wait, right?" Su Hongyu said with emotion.
"In this situation, the action is a little slower, and the good goods can't be sold at a good price, isn't it bad?" Chun Thirteen Niang said with a smile.
Yao Xishui is indeed a little worried that she and her eldest brother are the relics of the previous dynasty, and this time they are going north to recruit the remnants of the previous dynasty, and it is difficult to escape suspicion when things are done, but after the general statement of the thirteen mothers of Chun, she does realize that she thinks too much.
Now that the people's hearts are wanting, no one can shake the foundation that Han Qian has laid over the years, and there should be few people who have no more delusions than they can't do, and they really don't have any worries......
