Chapter 46: Fu Yuan's godson
Inside the Emperor's bedchamber
Emperor Huai felt that today's day was too terrifying, if it weren't for the desperate efforts of a few ministers and guards to protect him, he might have been eaten by those untouchables by now! It's really eaten alive! Is the famine in Luoyang already so bad!! Why can't they even drink a bowl of porridge???!!!
Emperor Huai suddenly found that his thoughts were the same as the recognized idiot emperor of the first emperor, this is terrible, how can I be the same as Emperor Sima Zhen, hahaha, Emperor Hui said meat porridge, I just thought about white porridge, and I just thought about it, I didn't say it!! Hahaha, of course I'm hundreds of times stronger than Emperor Hui, hahaha!!
The little chamberlain watched the emperor pant on the dragon bed with a cloudy face, and suddenly laughed like crazy...... It seems that not only did the escape fail this time, but also broke so many ministers and guards, the blow to this emperor was too great......
After Emperor Huai finally calmed down his mood, he finally fell asleep slowly, but what fate awaits him tomorrow?
A few days later, Heyin Ferry (now northeast of Mengjin, Luoyang)
Fu Yuan looked at the middle-aged man named Wei Jun in front of him, but his heart couldn't be calm, although this person was just a small lieutenant of the Du Branch, he dared to lead hundreds of nearby homeless people to rob the Hu people everywhere, and he also ran to the Xiashi Town of Heyin to guard the pass, and now as soon as he heard that he had come to Mengjin, he immediately expressed his willingness to surrender, and greeted him with a big defense, and was ready to dedicate all the grain and wheat he got from robbing the Hu people to the emperor......
Compared with Wei Jun's calm face, Fu Yuan didn't know how to face this person, this person was obviously a bandit, but he knew that when the emperor was in danger, Luoyang Kyoto was embarrassed because of famine, I really don't know if this person is too good at speculation or if he does have Dajin in his heart, should he be killed or rewarded?
Wei Jun didn't know Fu Yuan's current thoughts, if he knew, he would have been stunned, because his head had already moved many times in Fu Yuan's heart......
Fu Yuan is indeed very hesitant, such a person must be ambitious, if such a person in the prosperous era only needs a little control to become a capable official, but if there is chaos today, if this person has a bad heart, he may be a hero......
Thinking of this, Fu Yuan quickly wrote a handwritten letter, just smiled faintly on his face, and said softly: "General Wei came to offer food this time, the emperor will be a heavy reward, you can take my handwritten book through Luoyang Chengguan, go quickly, well, you can read the content of the handwritten book first, and there is also my recommendation."
Wei Jun saw that Fu Yuan had no doubts, and gave himself a handwritten book to clear the customs, and agreed that he could read its content first before setting off, what a kind of trust and openness!
Wei Jun's heart warmed, he originally thought that these ministers in the court of the Jin Dynasty were all light losers, who would prevent him from going to Luoyang and even snatch his own food to invite credit, to know that when he came, his nephew Wei should have persuaded himself not to trust the Jin ministers, and he did have a little selfishness, but he really hoped to do something for the Great Jin Dynasty in his heart, and the current situation was completely unexpected, he didn't expect this old man named Fu Yuan to be so sincere, Not only did there be no literati's natural contempt for martial artists, but they even treated themselves with confidence, which really moved Wei Jun very much......
Wei Jun bowed to Fu Yuan again with his fists in his hands, and then waved his hand to let his subordinates push many grain trucks towards Luoyang, before parting, Wei Jun took a deep look at the old man in front of him, slowly turned around, and left.
Fu Yuan looked at Wei Jun's figure gradually moving away, exhaled deeply, and his gaze slowly became deeper.
Fu Xuan, Fu Chang came to Fu Yuan, Fu Xuan asked puzzledly: "Why does my father believe in this person so much, now Luoyang is poor, what if this person went to assassinate the emperor in the name of sending grain?" ”
Fu Chang also said: "If there is chaos today, even if this person has good intentions, we have to guard against it, not to mention such a big credit......"
After Fu Yuan heard Fu Xuan's words, he just smiled and nodded, but after hearing Fu Chang's words, he stared at Fu Chang sternly.
Fu Yuan ignored the youngest son Fu Chang and said to the eldest son Fu Xuan: "Shihong can think of this because of the royal heart, I am very pleased with my father, what the world says is the words of quick success, have you ever thought that if you kill this person, will it chill the hearts of the people of the world, others will say that our Fu family has always been just a person who deceives the world and steals fame, not to mention that all the merits of this life will be despised by people, even your grandfather Fu Yi (after Fu Jiezi, Fu Xun's nephew. During the Three Kingdoms, Cao Wei was an official who assisted Sima Shi and Sima Zhao's brothers. Your reputation will be ruined, and you are also a famous family, with a long history and the ability to do the actions of those nouveau riche and short-sighted people! ”
Fu Chang listened to his father's words, and then he felt that he was indeed a little eager for quick success, and he was a little superficial, but he said in his heart: Who can know if he really kills it, as long as he does it cleanly, his father is indeed old......
Fu Xuan glanced at Fu Chang, and did not speak, but looked at the surrounding terrain, and said after a long time: "I see that the surrounding terrain is very suitable for hiding soldiers, just now Wei Jun waved his hand when he left, and there was a reflection in the forest on the left and right, it should be an ambush of soldiers and horses in case of unpreparedness......"
When Fu Chang heard Fu Xuan's words, he realized that he was really wrong, or that there was still a lot to learn, and he was too eager for quick success, Fu Chang lowered his head and bowed down to apologize to his father and brother.
Fu Yuan saw that Fu Xuan admitted his mistake, and he was slightly happy in his heart, and continued: "Wei Jun doesn't have to be so troublesome, you can go to Luoyang directly, there is no need to meet the old man, even if there is no old man's handwriting, these grains are passes......"
Now Fu Xuan and Fu Chang both looked solemn, it seems that they still underestimate Wei Jun, their old father is indeed an old man.
The two of them glanced at each other, and they were a little ashamed in their hearts, they both thought that their old father was old, but they didn't expect to see the problem much higher than themselves......
At night, the small town of Mengjin
Fu Yuan was busy for a day, and the ships were not prepared to come out much, it was really the death of the local people, the fleeing refugees, a little wood was split, and there were hardly many ships left, where to collect enough ships now?
When Fu Yuan thought of the emperor's sad face, the anxiety in his heart became even worse.
Fu Chang just set off to inspect various places in Heyin and will not come back soon, and Fu Xuan is the only one left by Fu Yuan's side.
Fu Xuan looked at his father's anxiety, and he didn't feel good in his heart, but there was no good way for a while, so he could only diligently add lamp oil to his father.
Fu Yuan suddenly coughed a few times, glanced at his eldest son, who had added fuel to himself, and suddenly said for some reason: "Shihong, you should also marry again, Song'er (Shisun Song (274-302 AD), the word Shilan, a native of Fufeng County, a famous woman in the Western Jin Dynasty. The fifth ancestor of the famous scholar Sun Rui, the word Junrong, in the Eastern Han Dynasty, successively served as a scholar and a servant, a great Sinon, and an official to the Shangshu order. It's been a long time since you and your two children died, and the long house hasn't branched out yet, do you want your father to still worry about you? ”
As soon as Fu Xuan heard his father mention his deceased wife, the loneliness in his heart could no longer be concealed, he lowered his head, and did not make a sound, but his thoughts drifted to the past: Shisun Song's slender posture and beautiful face were vaguely in front of him, and his wife acted virtuously and reasonably. He is really meticulous to himself, and he is very filial to his father, and he loves his younger brother, and I heard that his wife has a leisurely and clean, quiet and obedient beauty when she was an infant, and she has been called filial piety, loyalty, and faithfulness after becoming a wife. When they are with themselves, the two often chant poems together, and they are really in love with the flounder (the legendary winged bird), even if they encounter difficulties, they are also facing each other together, and Song'er never said a bitter word in front of him. However, when he was twenty-nine years old, that is, in the second year of Emperor Yongning of Jin Hui (302), he died suddenly in the summer and June Wuwu, leaving no words for himself. In autumn, Bingshen was buried in September. According to her request, her coffin was only five inches wide, and she personally dressed her in the clothes she usually wore instead of a special new life clothes, because Song'er had always advocated simplicity during her lifetime, so the burial was accompanied by some clay coffin pottery, without a little gold and jade jewelry. And he and Shisun Song gave birth to two boys shortly after they got married, the eldest named Fu Yingqi and the younger named Fu Huangyuan, but unfortunately, the two children died early when they were two years old.
I left so suddenly, I didn't leave anything for myself, I didn't have any thoughts left, I just left myself behind......
Thinking of this, Fu Xuan's tears naturally flowed......
Fu Yuan saw that his eldest son still missed his wife so much, and he also regretted a little that he shouldn't have mentioned the dead person anymore, and Fu Yuan's heart was only left with a sigh...... Song'er's death hit the child too hard, and he went but left nothing, how could this infatuation of his own be embarrassed......
Fu Xuan calmed down, he knew that now was not the time to think about his children's private affairs, His Majesty the Emperor's affairs had not been done yet, how could he think of other things, so he forcibly suppressed his lovesickness, and was ready to think about how to get more ships as soon as possible with his father.
Fu Yuan touched the deepest pain in his son's heart because of his words, and he also blamed himself a little, but when he thought that there were a lot of other things to do besides the ship, a sixty-eight-year-old man was indeed a little powerless.
Fu Yuan looked at Fu Xuan and was adding lamp oil to himself again, and looked at Fu Xuan's eyes full of love, but at this time, Fu Yuan's eyes suddenly froze, his face turned pale in an instant, his eyes were also dark, and the brush in his hand fell to the ground......
Inside a dilapidated courtyard in the outer city of Luoyang
The fat man and a group of traffickers have been waiting in this courtyard for many days, and the food they bring with them is getting less and less......
Mingyue was still unconscious when she woke up, Aunt Hong was already able to move, and the woman in brown clothes took care of Mingyue and Aunt Hong together, but Mingyue's wound that was bandaged by Li Xiang did not get better but began to suppurate......
