Chapter 20: Under the Same Sky (1)

Since ancient times, there have been many wars in the northwest, especially in the Northern Song Dynasty.

After the Northern Song Dynasty ended the division of the Five Kingdoms and Ten Dynasties, it was never able to recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, forming a situation of north-south confrontation with the Liao State.

In addition to the Liao Empire, there was Dali in the north and south of the Northern Song Dynasty, the yellow-headed Uighurs of the Western Xia Tufan tribes in the west, the Uighurs of Xizhou, and the Black Khanate in the distance, so the situation in the northwest region of the Northern Song Dynasty was very complicated and the geographical location was extremely important.

And Tong Guan was appointed as the Northwest Supervisor, which shows his status in the heart of Song Huizong.

Tong Guan, as a military supervisor in the northwest, is a living earth emperor in the northwest, and since it is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve today, the officials who come to visit are naturally endless.

As the old saying goes, thousands of clothes are worn, but only sycophants are not worn, many local officials are very flattering, and Tong Guantong does not seem to be the slightest impatient, but seems to have some enjoyment.

This is Zhou Yu beating Huang Gai, one is willing to fight, the other is willing to suffer, and the two are wishful thinking, which complements each other.

It's a pity that the happy atmosphere was quickly broken by the big housekeeper of Tongfu, he hurriedly walked to Tong Guan's side, whispered a few words in his ear, Tong Guan frowned slightly, and smiled and asked the big housekeeper to stay and accompany the adults, and leave alone.

Naturally, you adults don't dare to stop Master Tong Guan, but they are all old foxes in the officialdom, so they naturally know that something is happening, but no one will show it on their faces.

When Tong Guan came to the back hall, he saw Tong Ying with a dusty face.

Tong Ying's mother Pei was originally just a maid in the house, and her appearance was extremely outstanding, Tong Guan had a wild hair one day and night, which defiled her, and later became Tong Guan's concubine.

As the saying goes, marry a wife and marry virtue, take a concubine, since Tong Ying's mother Pei Shi is on the throne by virtue of her appearance, then as she gradually gets old and decrepit, she is naturally no longer favored, even if she gives birth to a son for Tong Guan, she is still not treated well in the house, and Tong Ying's life will naturally not be any better.

However, Tong Ying is Tong Guan's son after all, Tong Guan still got merit for him, and then threw him outside to fend for himself.

Under normal circumstances, whether it is the Tongfu in the northwest or the Tongfu in Bianjing, they are not allowed to be summoned, and Tong Ying is not allowed to return home.

But today is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Tong Guan, as a father, seeing his son running all the way and tired, naturally it is inevitable that he will be a little distressed, so he asked in a harmonious voice: "It's just a New Year, why did you come all the way to the northwest?" ”

Tong Ying saluted his father and replied respectfully: "My son's return to the house this time is not only to give his father a New Year's greeting, but also to show his father an important matter." ”

Tong Guan motioned for Tong Ying to sit down, and said lightly: "But there is another turmoil in Bianjing?" Hmph, Cai Jing is old and stubborn, he just can't see the scenery of his father! ”

Cai Jing and Tong Guan were originally the same dog, but as Tong Guan's authority became bigger and bigger, Cai Jing deeply felt that his authority had shifted downward, and a rift between the two had inevitably appeared.

Tong Ying shook her head, "The child is just a concubine, and the son doesn't dare to overstep the court." It was only in Yanggu County that I found a complete set of salt-making methods, so I specially came to ask my father to take a look. ”

After that, Tong Ying took out the refined salt from the Wuda Salt Mill and handed it to Tong Guan.

Tong Guan was a little sticky, put it in his mouth and tasted it, couldn't help but sit up straight, and asked: "This salt is the same as green salt, where did you get it, and tell your father carefully." ”

After a long talk, Tong Guan ordered someone to bring wine and food, and the father and son also had a reunion dinner, and Tong Ying told Tong Guan all the things he heard about Wuda.

Tong Guan pondered for a long time and said, "According to what you said, this Wuzhi is only willing to do business, and has no intention of officialdom. I have to admit that he is a business wizard. If you can use it for me, you might as well give him some support; If he doesn't know what to do, you will kill him as soon as possible, cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and you must not be used by others! For the father, I feel that Ximenqing may be better controlled. ”

Regarding General Tong's decisiveness, Tong Ying said that he couldn't understand it for a while, and he didn't understand why his father could conclude from these words that Ximen Qing was easier to control than Wu Da.

Tong Guan didn't explain, but continued: "However, for the moment, this Wuda is still very sensible. He wants to hug the big tree of our Tong family to enjoy the shade, so let him hug it! Raising soldiers for his father also requires money, and it is indispensable to let him give a share in the future. ”

After pondering for a moment, Tong Guan said again, "In this way, reward him with the official position of Wusan from the eighth rank of 'Imperial Insult Captain', and let him do it himself." ”

From the Eight Grades of Wusan, Tong Guan didn't need to ask for the opinions of the court and the emperor, he approved it, and when Tong Ying returned to Yanggu in the future, he would bring it to Wuda.

Tong Ying also made a great contribution and stayed in Tong's Mansion for the New Year as she wished.

Her mother Pei Shi was driven out of Bianjing because she was not welcomed, and naturally she was also in Tongfu in the northwest, and the mother and son finally got together again after many years.

This gratitude is contrary to Tong Guan's opinion.

Many times, the ending of many stories is often because of such a seed that seems very small and immature at this time.

……

Let's say that after Wuda learned that Yi Yi was the teacher Li under the pseudonym "Yicui", he was cautious in his words and deeds, but on the whole he still had a good conversation with her.

Wu Da finally knew why he was able to attract the attention of Master Li, and it turned out that people were sincerely grateful to him for treating Xiuhong kindly, and giving them more hope for these unfortunate women who had fallen into the dust.

Of course, after learning this reason, based on a man's self-esteem, Wuda was still slightly disappointed.

This is what you deserve to be single for a lifetime, Chiguoguo doesn't understand women's hearts, do you want people to say that they are interesting to you?

It has been half a year since Wuda crossed here, and the appearance of this body has gradually changed a lot, although Wuda is not called rich and handsome, but his height is close to six feet (equivalent to nearly one meter eight), and his appearance naturally does not dare to call Yushu Linfeng, but it can be regarded as a clear eyebrow, if not, with Wuda's original ugly appearance of less than five feet tall, no matter how he is, I am afraid that Master Li will not talk to him face-to-face.

Time flies, and it is noon in a blink of an eye, no matter how charming Master Li's appearance is, Wuda is always a man who cares about his family, and it is impossible for him to leave Jin Lian alone at home on a day like today, so he got up and prepared to leave.

Master Li has a habit that all men who are qualified to enter her boudoir must leave a lyric, poor Wuhan University was a science student in his previous life, how can he write lyrics?

However, since we are here through time, we are naturally not afraid of these.

Wu Da had an idea, waved his hand and wrote:

The eyebrows of the distant mountains are long, and the waist of the thin willows is curled. Makeup stands up for the spring breeze, and a smile is less.

When I returned to Fengcheng, I said that I said with Qinglou: Looking at Yingchuan flowers all over the world, it is not as good as a teacher.

This poem was originally written by Yan Jidao specifically for Master Li, but today it was shamelessly plagiarized by Wuda.

Master Li was slightly ashamed, and Wu Dachang left with a smile
