Chapter 586: Marriage is Song Fu's need

Waiting for the days of quelling the chaos is anxious and helpless, after all, it is the middle of winter, which is not conducive to the army's long journey, and the logistics are also very difficult, and it also takes time for the imperial court to transfer troops and horses.

During these days, Fu Quan mainly stayed in the Marquis Mansion, and every day in addition to asking Fu Wanhe and Liu Hua, who was pregnant, to be newly married after a long absence from the concubines, or to tease the two daughters under his knees, and to be content.

Every time he saw Liu Hua's bulging belly again, Fu Quan secretly muttered in his heart, could it be that his family's genes are really pig genes?

Is it all about giving birth, and having a litter of children, Liu Hua is already the fifth child, she is not old, she can continue to give birth, and her uncle is finished, it is obviously not like entering a state of powerlessness in advance, don't you see that in addition to the concubine surnamed Fan of Fushou's mother, there are still many concubines in his new concubine?

In this way, his aunt Liu Hua is quite tolerant and generous, even if she is a tigress most of the time at home, she is still very considerate of some places in Fuwan.

Occasionally, Fuquan would be summoned by the Empress Song to enter the palace to discuss family life, otherwise it would be a small trip to visit friends. As for wanting to return to Beijing by himself as before, countless high-ranking officials and dignitaries in Beijing, in order to get close to the Song family and the Fu family, it is obviously impossible to come to the door and set up a trap with himself, of course, for those people, Fu Quan doesn't care, he is still happy to be quiet, and he doesn't have to deal with these people.

The Song family has not seen each other for several years, that is, when he entered Beijing and was edicted to pacify the Taiping Road, Fuquan did not visit the palace because of the urgency of time.

As for the Jingshi Luoyangli, although he is not familiar with most of the ministers and officials, but after so many years of mixing in the officialdom, there are always a few who are quite familiar, such as Lu Zhi and Ma Riyan, who entered the palace together at the last court meeting, are all people who can be worthy of friendship now.

Although life is comfortable, for Fuquan, the matter of Liangzhou is a thorn in the heart, always in the heart.

The various preparations for counterinsurgency in the imperial court are in full swing, and the border information from Liangzhou also shows that the traitors will not make any big moves because of winter, although these are reassuring, but Fuquan always has some unrest in his heart.

The reason is that the imperial court does not seem to have a large number of troops and horses from beginning to end, which really makes Fuquan a little puzzled, is it really ready to temporarily recruit troops and horses to quell the rebellion in the spring of next year?

Do you really think he's the god of war?

Use a bunch of freshly recruited farmers to fight against that group of experienced Han and Qiang rebels?

If He Jin, as a general, is ready to assassinate himself, it doesn't make sense, Fu Quan naturally wouldn't believe that Emperor Liu Hong would make such a mistake.

After all, no one would believe that the strength of the Liangzhou rebels would be so scummy, and the new recruits recruited could solve the Liangzhou war. Maybe you can do this to deal with the Taiping Road Yellow Turban Moth Thieves, after all, many of those Moth Thieves are recruits who have just been pulled to the battlefield, but to deal with the rebels in Liangzhou, I am afraid that they are the elite soldiers of the Han Dynasty, and they will have a headache for a long time.

On this day, another heavy snow for two consecutive days stopped, and the city of Luoyang was dyed with layers of thick silver white, and the sky and the earth were white.

Outside the Hou Mansion, Lu Qiang, the regular attendant of the Middle School, sat in a carriage, brought a few small temple people, and respectfully invited Fuquan to enter the palace, Fuquan smiled bitterly, and could only respond to the order.

"Lu Changshi, what is the reason for the queen today?"

Leaning on the end of the carriage, Fuquan wrapped his fox fur, and said lazily, it is cold before the frost and cold after the snow, this kind of cold weather should be sleeping with a woman at home, and going out is simply looking for sin. However, she is the queen, and she is the most powerful person in the Han Dynasty except for the emperor, so he can't help but disobey orders.

"It's not about the princess of ten thousand years!" Lu Qiang smiled helplessly: "The princess admires the martial arts of the prince and the marquis, but the queen can't, so she only orders the old slave to come and welcome the prince into the palace." ”

Fu Quan also smiled bitterly when he heard this, and secretly said that his aunt had entered the palace early in this life, and had never been a matchmaker, this kind of trick was too old-fashioned, and anyone with a discerning eye knew that you were deliberately matchmaking.

Liu Jia, the princess of ten thousand years, is only twelve years old, although it is indeed not small in the era of early marriage and early childbearing in the ancients, and girls are relatively open to love, but it is obvious that for Liu Jia, a princess who has been in the deep palace all the year round, it is strange that she can know that she admires herself, at most, she has a little indescribable good impression of her cousin, who often gives things and has a great reputation.

Of course, if you don't see through this matter, the queen intends to marry the princess to you, and she is the only daughter and eldest daughter of the emperor, no matter how you look at it, he will not lose. Don't forget, the princesses of the Han family, in fact, are all like female tigers in politics, and marrying a princess is obviously more beneficial than disadvantageous for Fuquan.

As for whether it will be like many Han Dynasty emperors-in-law, she can't suppress the princess, resulting in the princess being a female tiger outside, and she is more fierce at home than outside, but Fuquan will not worry. After all, Liu Jia is still young, and he is already a famous general in the Han Dynasty, and he is the brother of his cousin and future brother and sister, no matter how you look at it, she has a bigger chance of winning than Liu Jia.

Anyway, for Fuquan, as long as he is not mixed and not as aggrieved as most of the concubines of the Song and Ming dynasties in later generations, if he has no real name, it is not a big problem, and it is acceptable. Of course, at this time, the emperor's son-in-law is not called a concubine.

Queen Song's thoughts, Fu Quan naturally guessed, it is nothing more than that now that the Song family has no Song Yu, relying on the strong Hou Song Qi, who is entangled with the party and a little scumbag, it is obviously not enough. In addition, now that the He family is on the rise of He Jin, with the support of the party people, and is pressing on the Song family step by step, the Song Empress naturally wants to ensure that she now has the only strong reliance on the loyalty of the Fu family.

Although the Fu family and the Song family are now political forces tied to a rope, but for the Song Dynasty, this is obviously not insurance, as for how to be insured, throughout the ages, it is nothing more than marriage.

Once married, Song and Fu are really inseparable, of course, this is not a marriage like Fuquan's parents, this marriage is still very fragile. If it really comes to the kind of situation where the Song family is not guaranteed and the Fu family is still alive, the Song Empress will not doubt that the Fu family will choose a strong man to break his wrist and apologize for his own method, so what she wants is the kind of way that after the marriage, the Fu family can only die to serve herself.

And how should the Empress Song achieve this kind of marriage?

For Empress Song, it is natural to tie up the Fu family to the greatest extent, so that the Fu family does not break free at all. As far as Fu Quan knows, the reason why his aunt Liu Hua, who is now pregnant again, has been dragging on not letting him get married, and has rejected the marriages of countless wealthy and wealthy families, seems to be because she and the queen Song have reached some kind of conspiracy.

This kind of conspiracy, Fu Quan does not know, originally he actually had a guess in his heart, that is, his cousin Fu Shou became the queen in history. But now it seems that this thing has not come true, and he may have been sold by his aunt, married the Empress of Song, and married the daughter of Emperor Liu Hong first!

After all, in the current situation, it is obvious that it is unrealistic to combine Fu Shou and Liu Chong, the prince of the Song Dynasty, because the two are too young, and this kind of political marriage is not strong at all. Therefore, Liu Jia, who is about to get married, and Fuquan, who has been dragged by Liu Hua, causing the position of his wife to be vacant, the marriage between the two is bound to be the best and most solid choice now.

However, this matter is still a little difficult, after all, he is twelve years older than Liu Jia, has so many concubines, and has two daughters, and they are only less than ten years younger than Liu Jia. The Han family has a precedent for a princess to remarry, and it is not a rare thing for an old husband and a young wife to be in the circle of Han nobles, but in the royal family, especially if the other party is still the only daughter of the emperor, no matter what Fu Quan thinks, he feels that Liu Hong will not agree with it because of how powerful he is, and he is a young famous general of the Han Dynasty.

On the way, Lu Qiang informed himself of some conversations in the palace in the past few days, especially between Emperor Liu Hong and Zhang Rang and others, which can be said to be very detailed, and almost everything he knew was told truthfully.

This made Fu Quan breathe a sigh of relief, because from Lu Qiang's mouth, Fu Quan knew that Zhang Rang and the others were now focusing on Wang Yun, who was almost ruining him, and was looking for an opportunity by Liu Hong's side all day long, to put Wang Yun to death.

However, if it was in the past, they, the eunuchs trusted by the emperor, would have a thousand opportunities and ten thousand ways to make peace so that Wang Yun, who offended them, would completely die without a place to be buried. However, now that the situation has changed and the power of the party in the court has revived, they absolutely do not want to see Wang Yun, who is also the backbone of the party, buried at the hands of the eunuchs.

What's more, Wang Yun is the protégé of Taiwei Deng Sheng, the former official of Situ Yuan Kui, just these two people, in today's court, they can't be considered by Emperor Liu Hong, whether they should let go of power, let Zhang Rang and others go and do it. In fact, as far as Liu Hong is concerned, he doesn't care whether the party members framed Zhang Rang for revenge as Zhang Rang said, what he wants is just an excuse to deal with the eunuchs.

After all, Liu Hong was to protect the Han Sheji and prevent the party from uniting with the Taiping Road Yellow Turban Moth thieves, so he compromised under the pressure of He Jin and the pro-party sergeants and issued an order to lift the party.

Therefore, Zhang Rang wants to settle accounts with Wang Yun this time, which is indeed what Liu Hong is willing to see, of course, in his heart, Liu Hong also has the intention of compensating Zhang Rang. After all, these eunuchs were raised by him when he was young, and for him, like his biological parents, after Zhang Rang cried that he was retaliated against, Liu Hong reflected on it, and felt that he only felt wrong because of a letter between Zhang Rang's guests and the Yellow Turban Moth thief in Taiping Road, so he suspected Zhang Rang of the crime.

If there is evidence of Zhang Rang and the Yellow Turban Moth thief in Taiping Dao in the letter, it is fine, but there is nothing in the letter, and Liu Hong lost his mind because of his own momentary anger, and blamed the eunuchs who had been fighting against the party under him, which was really wrong.

Moreover, it is more likely that those party members saw that when they saw the letter, they would lose their minds, and punish the eunuchs without asking questions, so they would impeach the eunuchs so vigorously because of the collusion between the eunuchs and the Taiping Road Yellow Turban Moth thieves.

In other words, they wanted to use their sensitivity as emperors to drive a wedge between themselves and the eunuchs, which was Liu Hong's unsurprising conjecture. Of course, no matter what the inside story of this matter is, those party members still underestimated Liu Hong's trust in the eunuchs, causing them to frame the eunuchs but failed, but let themselves be bitten by the eunuchs.

It was also for various reasons that Liu Hong acquiesced, and even secretly supported the eunuchs to deal with the party, and even among the heroes who rewarded the Yellow Turban Moth thieves in the Taiping Road in the imperial court, he deliberately sealed less or even did not seal some party members who opposed the eunuchs, so as to suppress them. Correspondingly, in order to maintain the survival of the eunuchs again, Liu Hong also braved the world's disapproval to seal those eunuchs who contributed less and made less meritorious contributions in the Yellow Turban Moth Thieves in Pingding Taiping Road, so as to let the eunuchs confront the party members.

Of course, although this move is good, it also does more harm than good, after all, the eunuch power is the capital to confront the rising party figures, but because of this, the imperial court has gradually lost the prestige of those grassroots soldiers who climb up from the bottom and are eager to make meritorious contributions and promotions.

For those ordinary generals who only have interests in their hearts, they are most likely to lose their loyalty, and this has been clearly proven by countless historical facts.

Suddenly thinking of something, Fu Quan joked: "In this way, Zhang Rang and the others will not embarrass Lu Changshi." ”

Lu Qiang said with a smile: "Wang Yun's matter, he is too busy to take care of himself, how can he have the energy to frame others?" ”

"That's the case, but Lu Changzhi can't be careless, so as not to recur what was falsely accused before."

"Don't worry, the old slave knows this matter!"

After thinking about it, Fu Quan felt that he still had to remind Lu Qiang again, after all, if something happened again, Fu Quan might not have a chance to save him.

As Lu Qiang, he has always believed that Zhang Rang and others, who are also eunuchs, will not poison themselves even if the two sides disagree. It's just that in the end, Lu Qiang was still harmed by what he thought was the same kind of person.

Some time ago, after the Taiping Road Incident, in addition to He Jin and the suggestions of the party figures, Lu Qiang, as a regular servant, also because he understood the current situation, suggested that the emperor should pardon the party members, kill corrupt officials, and assess whether local officials are competent.

Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and other eunuchs were terrified because of this, and they requisitioned their children back as officials in the state and county, which also made them all hate Shang Lu Qiang. But Lu Qiang didn't know, he was careless in the end, and later, Zhao Zhong and others falsely accused the Qiang brothers of being corrupt officials, and Liu Hong sent people to arrest him without knowing it.

If it weren't for later, Fuquan's uncle Fu Wan and Empress Song tried to intercede in order to ensure that they echoed Lu Qiang in the palace, otherwise Lu Qiang's consequences would be unpredictable.
