Chapter 755: There is a banquet before leaving the palace
(That, big chapter, please subscribe...... Reviews recommend a walk! )
Deciding to send troops in person, Wei Wuji immediately brought up the itinerary.
This time to go south, Wei Wuji is not a bare pole, Wu'an has already installed 20,000 ironclad cavalry, and 20,000 Wei soldiers will go south with him.
In other words, only 10,000 soldiers were left behind on the Wu'an side, and Wei Wuji handed over the command of this 10,000-strong army to Xu Anhong.
After he left Wu'an, he needed Xu Anhong to deter some people with ulterior motives, and 10,000 Wei soldiers were enough for him to quell all the voices of disobedience.
The day of Wei Wuji's expedition was set for June 25, which was also the fifth day after he decided to go on the expedition himself.
This decision seemed to be hasty, not only the courtiers were surprised for a while, but the women in the harem were also difficult to accept.
So on the afternoon of the 23rd, in the name of the queen mother, she convened a banquet in the harem.
Among the people invited by Yu Ji, except for Wei Wuji's wives and concubines, the main invitees were Wei Wuji.
Sitting on the sedan chair, Wei Wuji was also very upset at this time, because he knew that his mother's purpose for holding this banquet was to leave himself in Wu'an.
Although he understood that his mother was thinking about his own safety, Wei Wuji also knew in his heart that his mother was for his good.
So this distress of his is also the distress of happiness, and it is too difficult to be cared for in his position.
"Your Majesty, you'll be in Changchun Garden ahead!" On the side of the sedan chair, Yu Zhongmei said with a smile.
Wei Wuji nodded slightly, and then the sedan chair fell, and he occupied it with Yu Zhong's support.
After doing this, Yu Zhong immediately shouted at the gate of Changchun Garden, a small runway: "The monarch has arrived!" ”
After breathing a sigh of relief, Wei Wuji stepped into the Changchun Garden, and the next thing he had to deal with was helping women, but it made him even more uncomfortable than dealing with the courtiers.
When Wei Wuji walked into the garden, he saw the concubines on the high platform, all of them got up and saluted him, and Cao Xin even walked down the steps to greet him.
"The concubine greets the king!" Cao Xin walked to Wei Wuji's front and back roads.
Wei Wuji motioned for her to be excused before asking, "Is the Queen Mother here?" ”
Because the Changchun Pavilion was too high, Wei Wuji couldn't see the situation on the main throne behind, so he asked Cao Xin.
Cao Xin replied: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother and her old man have arrived, so she is waiting for you!" ”
Wei Wuji nodded, and then walked forward, Cao Xin following closely behind him.
After stepping onto the high platform, Wei Wuji saw three tables set up on the top of the Changchun Pavilion, and Yu Ji was sitting behind the middle table, looking at him coldly.
As soon as Wei Wuji approached, he heard Yu Ji say in a cold tone: "Your Excellency is really busy with state affairs, and you haven't come after I have been called a few times, it seems that the entire harem must be added up to see you!" ”
This tone of voice can be described as extremely unkind, but Wei Wuji can't do anything about it, who let this be the!
So Wei Wuji could only take a few steps forward, picked up the tea cup in front of Yu Ji and said, "Mother forgives, my son is busy with state affairs, and it is my son's fault that he failed to come to your palace to say goodbye!" ”
Yu Ji didn't accept this feeling, so she listened to her: "Since you're here, let's take a seat!" You're not hungry, I'm hungry old woman! ”
It seems that this matter is really a bit troublesome, Wei Wuji smiled bitterly in his heart, but he still sat down with a bright smile on his face.
At this time, Yu Ji looked at the concubines standing below and said, "You all sit down!" ”
Then Yu Ji said to Cao Xin next to her: "You can sit too!" ”
As Wei Wuji's wife, Cao Xin is qualified to sit at the top, so one of the three tables on your seat is hers.
At this time, the atmosphere in the entire Changchun Pavilion was a little awkward, and the concubines naturally didn't dare to talk more, and the silence magnified this embarrassment again.
As a daughter-in-law, Cao Xin naturally couldn't let this embarrassment continue, so she listened to her: "Play music, dance!" ”
After Cao Xin's order, the musicians on both sides of the Changchun Pavilion were busy, and for a while, the sound of silk and bamboo sounded one after another, but it dispelled a lot of the embarrassing atmosphere of the banquet.
When the dancers came up, Wei Wuji pretended to be okay and concentrated on enjoying the dance.
At least on the surface, the atmosphere of the whole banquet became a lot more lively, and the concubines below all chatted quietly.
At this time, Yu Ji, who was also looking at the singing and dancing below, said coldly: "The kings are all people who are going to the battlefield, but at this time, they still have the heart to watch the singing and dancing!"
Wei Wuji was pretending to be attentive, but when he was told by Yu Ji at this time, he could only accept it.
Wei Wuji said: "The beautiful scenery of a good day, you should appreciate it, so as to live up to the beauty of your mother's banquet!"
But just right, Wei Wuji's words were wrong, and he immediately replied: "Disappointed...... If you are in danger on the battlefield, will you live up to the grace of your subjects and your mother? ”
I really can't hide from it...... Wei Wuji said secretly in his heart.
But at this time, he could only say: "My son has no other way......
The pro-conquest was carefully thought out by Wei Wuji, so naturally it would not be changed easily, not to mention that everything was arranged.
Hearing her son's answer, Yu Ji couldn't help but sneer: "There is no other way...... You are the king of the Great Wei Kingdom, is there anyone else in this world who can persecute you? ”
As the most powerful man in the world, of course, no one can persecute Wei Wuji, only he can persecute others.
Speaking of this, Yu Ji said again: "Although Wei Niang has lived in the deep palace for a long time, she also knows that the front line has won battles and expanded the territory ......for hundreds of miles."
"When your father and ancestors were here, it was difficult for them to have such great achievements, so you should be content, why should you go to the battlefield in person?" Yu Ji followed the good path.
Wei Wuji only found out at this time that his mother actually had the potential to debate, which was reasonable to persuade him!
Not to mention, although these words are words of persuasion, they also point out Wei Wuji's exploits, which makes people feel comfortable listening to them.
But it was pleasing to the ear, but Wei Wuji's own decision would not change, so he listened to him: "Mother's words are not ......."
"The ambition of the father and ancestors is to unify the world, how can the son be content with a small victory in front of him, and forget the great task of dominating the world!" Wei Wuji said slowly.
In fact, what he said also made it clear once again that this time the expedition was decided and would not change.
But at this time, I heard Yu Ji ask rhetorically: "Your father and ancestors had the ambition to unify the world, but did they do it?"
At this time, Wei Wuji did not rush to answer, but slowly picked up the wine cup before saying, "If they can't do it, then the widow will do it!"
After that, Wei Wuji drank all the wine in his glass!
At this time, Yu Ji had nothing to say, she already knew her son's intentions, and this was not something she could change.
After sighing, Yu Ji said slowly: "You have grown up...... With your own ideas, Ke Weiniang still has to warn you that everything is about your own safety! ”
Is this what you agree to in front of? Wei Wuji breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
So Wei Wuji immediately said: "My son understands, my mother can rest assured ......"
Then Wei Wuji changed the topic, only to see him pointing to the lower part and singing and dancing: "Mother, look, these dancing girls have really worked hard, and their dancing posture is much more agile than before the moon!"
At this time, Yu Ji was thinking about watching some song and dance, but her son couldn't persuade her to come back, and she felt that it was not interesting for her to stay here.
"Tired...... You should enjoy this song and dance! Out of Wu Anke, there is no such blessing! She stood up and said.
"I'm back in the palace!" Yu Ji called, and then several maids walked up and surrounded the queen mother to leave.
Wei Wuji also stood up and said, "The son sends his mother back to the palace!"
But at this time, Yu Ji said: "If you want to leave, why do you want to send ......?"
Wei Wuji couldn't help but be stunned in place, it seemed that his mother still didn't give up!
But the pro-Zheng must go, so Wei Wuji stopped, turned to Cao Xin next to him and said, "Madame, send my mother back to the palace for the widow!"
Husband and wife are one, and there is nothing wrong with Wei Wuji's arrangement.
Then Cao Xin took the order and left, and the Empress Dowager and Mrs. Jun in the Changchun Pavilion left.
Wei Wuji sat back in his place, and saw that the singing and dancing below had stopped, and the concubines were also standing cautiously one by one...... I was immediately very unhappy.
"All sitting...... The song and dance continue! Wei Wuji said in a deep voice.
After all, he has the final say in this Wei State, so even if it is out of place, the following songs and dances are still back to normal.
Wei Wuji was drinking sullen wine alone, and although he barely managed to convince his mother, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
Cao Xin left, and the rest of the concubines were in awe of Wei Wuji, and they didn't say a word like a stuffy gourd.
Only Ji Bangyue below looked at his man with a sad look.
Wei Wuji also discovered this, so he waved his hand to Ji Bangyue below and said, "Concubine Ai come up and drink with the widow!"
The monarch called each other, and Ji Bangyue had no reason to go, so she got up and came to Wei Wuji's side.
Seeing this scene, the concubines below could explode in their hearts.
The only person who can accompany the monarch on this occasion should be Cao Xin, who is his wife.
But the monarch took Cao Xin away, and now he let the favorite concubine come to that position.
What does this mean? Is this the prince expressing his dissatisfaction with his wife?
The minds of the people below are very lively, and they are naturally full of interest in intrigue.
But on the main seat of Changchun Pavilion, Ji Bangyue looked at her man with concern.
Wei Wuji put down the wine cup and couldn't help laughing, "What? You're going to persuade me too? ”
Ji Bangyue shook her head, and then said: "Of course, the concubine body does not want her husband to risk her life, but since the husband pays attention to it, the concubine body only hopes that the husband will be victorious and invincible!"
Wei Wuji couldn't help but be stunned, and then saw him smile, took Ji Bangyue into his arms and said, "Good...... When the float is white! ”
The people below couldn't hear what the two people above said, but they saw that Ji Bangyue didn't say a word, which caused the monarch to laugh.
As a result, the wind direction of the harem has quietly changed again.
