Chapter 1 Jiangning Stacks of Smoke
Wei Yu pretended to command several armies, but he was not out of the town, although he was a general, he had no right to have his own personal guards. Jiang Lingtian and Zhang Zhongdao have the right to set up a pro-guard battalion, but there is no pro-guard army in General Qingfeng's mansion, and the guards in the mansion are all from the cavalry battalion, so the two naturally dare not take the lead, and now only Liang Bao, the head of the Nanmin Xingyuan Camp, has his own pro-guard battalion.
In order to prevent the generals from supporting their own troops, the number of guards in the battalion was only allowed to be 500, which was a serious crime.
Zhang Xu said: "Continue does not dare to take the lead. ”
Xu Ruyu said: "It's okay, when I return to Jiangning this time, I will form two armies, Qingfengwei and Qingfengcai." ”
Qingfengwei and Qingfengqi, Wei Yan will lead one army alone with the rank of general Wei, but the other army does not know who will lead it, Zhang Xu Yuguang swept Fan Wenlong's indifferent face, and said with a smile: "Continue to be ordered by the lord." ”
The news of Xu Ruyu's arrival at the Cuipingshan military camp reached Zeng Yixing's military camp on the north bank of Xia'a River that night, and Zeng Yixing pulled out the camp overnight and retreated 30 miles, and found a dangerous place in Dingyuan to re-encamp.
When Zhang Xu heard the news, he laughed and said, "Retreat, see you again today." ”
One house refers to thirty miles, and at this time, Zeng Yixing's new camp is exactly ninety miles away from the northern foot of Cuiping Mountain.
Xu Ruyu defeated 20,000 elite soldiers in Baishi in the first battle of Qichuan, and then drove all the elite soldiers of Baishi out of Wanling Mansion in the next few battles.
Xu Ruyu listened to it but didn't hunt for joy, just smiled, didn't comment much, stopped at Cuiping Mountain for a while, and continued to move forward. Back then, Wu Chu took Xu Ruyu and Meng Yi and others to separate in Cuiping Mountain, and also stopped at Cuiping Mountain for a while, but at that time Xu Ruyu fell into a coma and was completely unconscious.
Out of Cuiping Mountain is the territory of Jiangning, Zhang Xu sent five hundred Jianyong guards, arrived in Zhenning, Ziyangqiu also happened to return from Jiangjin, passing through Zhenning, and Xu Ruyu and others returned to Jiangning by water camp warship.
When they arrived in Jiangning, Shao Haitang, Xu Boying, Jiang Lingtian, Zhang Zhongdao, Mei Tierui, Yi Guanyuan, Jue'er and others led Jiangning officials and generals to wait for a long time at the water gate on the south bank of Sangpo Lake.
Xu Ruyu's eyes wandered in the crowd, he didn't see Youli, he wanted to come to be pregnant with Liujia, he was not good at walking, Jue'er stood there gracefully, suffering from parting, and finally said that he was much thinner than when he left, Xu Ruyu and her eyes were connected for a long time, her eyelids couldn't help but be red, and there was a hidden gaze.
Looking at the crowd of Kou Zitoad, counting on his fingers, he had not met for more than ten years, Xu Ruyu stood at the bow of the boat, bowed for a long time, but let everyone on the water close hurriedly return the salute.
Ziyang Qiu said on the shore: "The adults are waiting for me in Zhenning, and I have been delayed for some time, but I have made the princes wait for a long time, and it is all Ziyang's sin." ”
Xu Ruyu said: "During the night banquet, you can apologize to the princes on my behalf, and don't say much at this time." ”
Zhang Zhongdao said: "I don't know the taste of wine anymore, I don't dare to set foot in Mingyue Tower after you leave, but I live too close to it, and I can't sleep all night listening to the noise in the room." ”
Everyone laughed. When Zhang Zhongdao seized Jiangning, he did not lose a single soldier, and Jiangning City was not damaged, this year, Xu Ruyu went all out to manage Jiangning, Jiangning's prosperity was no longer comparable to the past, Zhang Zhongdao's mansion was still a few miles away from Jiangning's Mingyue Tower, and it was not true to listen to it, but he thought of wine in his heart, and he couldn't sleep.
Shao Haitang took Shao Ruyan's hand, his face showed anger, his face turned several times, it was already infinitely compassionate, and he couldn't bear to say a word of reproach. When he approached Xu Ruyu, he whispered: "Chen sent Liu Zhaoyu to Jiangning yesterday to ......."
Xu Ruyu sighed slightly, and when the secret path never stopped, he said: "Let's discuss it in the house first." He led the generals into the city from Shuiguan, and when he arrived at the mansion, he left everyone in front of the hall and walked towards the inner house with Jue'er.
Walking to the inner house, Uncle Fang Wu was standing in the atrium of the Jade Courtyard looking forward to the Prime Minister, and when he saw Xu Ruyu and Jue'er coming in hand in hand, he was overjoyed and said, "The wives of the Ling Tian family and the Zhong Taoist family are all accompanying Youli inside. "The large room is sheltered from the wind with chiffon yarn, the door is open, and the snow-white yarn flies out of a corner, and in the sun, it is a little dazzling. Youli sat on the couch, heard the words outside, his body stiffened suddenly, and suddenly his body was leaning on the couch without strength, and he didn't feel that the corners of his eyes were slightly red.
Yun Niang, Cui'er, Yi Tingxue, Jiang Yunuo and other female relatives were originally in the big room to accompany Youli, and when they saw this situation, they couldn't help laughing, Yun Niang said: "Let's retreat, don't let General Qingfeng order to drive me away, it's boring." With that, he withdrew from the side door and didn't face Xu Ruyu.
Youli's cheeks were red, he bowed his head and was speechless, only to feel that a light reflected on him when he lifted the veil, but a layer of blush rose on his face. Holding his bulging stomach lightly with his hands, he didn't dare to look at Xu Ruyu who came into the house.
Xu Ruyu repeatedly failed to sleep on the boat last night, thinking of many things to say, when it came to meeting, his eyes met, he was already **, those words were blocked in his throat, he couldn't say a word, and he forgot to say it cleanly, sat down, and slowly said the sadness of separation after separation.
Uncle and grandson Fangwu walked three times, and finally stepped into the room and said, "Why don't you let the princes go back to the house first?" ”
Xu Ruyu looked up and saw that the light was slanting westward, and the golden brilliance was reflected on the terrazzo paved ground through the gauze, as warm as the water light, and said: "When I didn't feel that I had such chatter, I was afraid that the princes were impatient waiting in front of the hall." Said to Uncle Fang Wu, "Uncle Sun, you go to the front yard first, Youli's makeup is messy, and when we wait a while, the three of us will come together." ”
You Li didn't want to see people at this moment, and he really didn't want to be separated from Ru Yu for a moment, so he dressed up and walked to the front yard with Ru Yu and Jue'er. Everyone was not in the political hall, and they couldn't find their uncle Fangwu, so they asked the school in front of the hall, but they said that Jiang Yunuo pulled everyone to pick Mingyue Tower. Xu Ru smiled foolishly: "When there is Zhongdao in the middle, it will help." Let people prepare the vehicle, let Youli and Jue'er live in the car, put down the cloth, Xu Ruyu held the bridle with his own hands, let the little colonel change into civilian clothes to lead the way in front, and drove the carriage out of the long street and went to Mingyue Tower.
When I left Jiangning last year, I only heard that Yunuo was going to come to Jiangning to sell wine, but the building was not completed, and I didn't know the details. Walking to the bottom of the Mingyue Tower, I couldn't help but be taken aback, and saw that this building was built on the north slope of Jiming Mountain according to the appearance of the old building of Yongyang, the terrain was originally high, and the four-storey high-rise building was picked out from the mountainside, and a touch of purple mist was horizontal behind the high-rise building. This was originally a place to quietly know the taste of wine, at this time the high-rise building came up with lights like day, the voices of people were boiling, a bluestone staircase of two riding side by side extended from the bottom of the mountain to the front door of the high-rise building, the hill in front of the building was paved with long cases, and the staggered plans were staggered, almost all the officials of all sizes in Jiangning gathered here.
Xu Ruyu said: "This building should no longer use the old name, although it is not limited to elegance and vulgarity, it is built here, in fact, it restricts some people from coming. "If the people in Jiangning City do not want to go out of the city to visit the spring, they will come to Jiming Mountain, which is also a place where literati and scholars gather elegantly, and the so-called peddlers and pawns have no chance to set foot here. Youli said in the car: "Yu Nuo has said many times that you will be named. ”
Xu Ruyu smiled, thought about a few names, but felt that it was not suitable, pointed to the mountain, and said, "Let's go up the mountain first." ”
The banquet on the hill in front of the building was held by officials and generals with low ranks, and they looked at Xu Ruyu from afar and drove the carriage up, but they didn't dare to confirm it, so they hurriedly let people go into the building to report to Jiang Lingtian and others. Zhang Zhongdao rushed out first, pointed at Xu Ruyu and laughed, and said, "I don't tell you, I want to see how you came here, and it was really unexpected." ”
Everyone was busy getting up and leaving their seats to give a salute, Xu Ruyu hurriedly said: "This family banquet, I left Jiangning, you have a lot of hard work, no need to be polite." Youli is frail and young, Jue'er and I toast you. Shao Ruyan stood beside Shao Haitang, and her eyes were more calm than the night, and she threw her eyes at Xu Ruyu. Xu Ruyu panicked for no reason and looked elsewhere.
Yunuo will Youli and Jue'er get off the car, the two are picturesque, the skin is snowy, and the faces are somewhat similar, which makes people suspect that they are sisters, and Yunuo's girl's posture is compatible, showing that the two are graceful, but the temperament is very different, one is elegant and chaste, one is bright and bright, but they all give people a sense of beauty.
Youli smiled lightly, walked to the table and poured a glass of wine, pushed it to his eyebrows, smiled lightly, and said, "Youli is here to thank you for your hard work." After taking a sip and chatting about the meaning, he walked to the building with Jue'er and Yunuo, avoiding the people on the first and second floors from the mezzanine corridor, and went to the third floor. Everyone expected that Youli would come, and on the third floor, a mountain screen was separated, and there was a stove of agarwood on the purple and black wooden table, Yun Niang, Cui'er, Shusun and others were already waiting in the inner compartment, and the laughter in the outer compartment of the screen continued, thinking that it was crowded and full of people.
Yun Niang took Youli's hand and said, "They drink, I don't know how much nonsense there is before the banquet, not to mention that they drink and don't do our business, let's go to the fourth floor and sit down first." In this building, one or two floors are slightly larger, the third floor can only be placed three or four tables, the fourth floor is even smaller, with a foot-high bamboo couch spread, a teng bed on the back wall, a low table on the top, the roof is covered with glazed tiles, the faint moonlight is revealed, for a time there is a peace of mind, the horizontal oblique light and shadow are printed on the green bamboo couch, giving people the strange illusion of placing underwater.
Young Li Shang came to this building for the first time, and when he saw this scene, he said: "When you come here, even mortals are also contaminated with a bit of spiritual surname. ”
Jue'er said: "Every time Yunuo is here, it won't take long to become a fairy in the clouds." ”
Yun Niang laughed out loud and said: "Mr. Kou's prodigal son, he wrote a poem in Jizhai before, and sang Jiangning, among which there is a sentence 'Beauty is like jade across the clouds', Jue'er said this, Yu Nuo must be unhappy in his heart. ”
Yunuo's face turned red, pushed the window and looked downstairs, and said, "You guys take a break here, I'll go meet their group of laymen." Between the words, Xu Ruyu, Jiang Lingtian, and Zhang Zhongdao were all included, and everyone laughed and ignored her.
Xu Ruyu went up to the third floor with everyone, and the third floor divided the landscape screen into two places, with a table in the middle and three black lacquered wooden tables outside.
Mei Tierui, Yi Guanyuan, Shen Deqian, Xu Boying, Shao Haitang, Zhang Ji, Gu Mingchen, Gu Changhuai, Jun Zhuoyan, Ban Biao, Jimo Mingxi, Tu Wenyong, Fang Su, Kou Zichan, Meng Yi, Ao Fang, Ziyangqiu, Uncle Sun Fangwu, Jimo Ruiping, Yun Qingxu and others are all important ministers of Jiangning, Fan Wenlong and Jun Zhuoyan, who returned to Jiangning with Xu Ruyu, also arranged a banquet on the third floor. In the past two years, the Jun family has also laid the foundation in Jiangning, since he entered the building, people have frequently greeted him, but he is also comfortable, but Fan Wenlong is a minister who abandoned the clan and surrendered, and he lost his peaceful quiet cultivation for a while, and his expression was a little unnatural.
Xu Ruyu pulled Fan Wenlong to his side and said to everyone: "The first glass of wine during the banquet, everyone should respect my new tiger general in Jiangning." He also said, "Jiang Ning will set up two armies, Qingfengwei and Qingfeng, and Wenlong will lead Qingfengwei with the rank of captain, and everyone should help." ”
Everyone's expressions were not concealed in surprise, Qingfengwei will be Xu Ruyu's personal guard, although the selected general is only the rank of captain, the general position is almost the same as the rank of General Wei, but the authority is slightly greater than that of General Wei, originally thought that Xu Ruyu would choose a trusted general to lead Qingfengwei, but unexpectedly entrusted Qingfengwei to the newly attached Fan Wenlong, you need to know that Fan Wenlong is still a member of the Fan clan who is hostile to Jiangning.
Although Fan Wenlong expected it, Xu Ruyu said it himself, let him say that the heart lake of the ancient well without waves set off a stormy wave at this time, pressed down the excitement, tried his best to make his tone calmer, and said: "Wenlong has shallow knowledge, I am afraid it is difficult to take on a heavy responsibility. ”
Xu Ruyu smiled and ignored it, turned his head, looked at Jiang Lingtian, and said, "Ling Tian, do you think Wenlong is worthy of this position?" ”
Jiang Lingtian knew that Xu Ruyu's move was determined to divide and annex the people of the Fan clan, and since Fan Wenlong and others were attached, they would not be easily repeated, and they were trustworthy people. Qingfengwei and Qingfengqi were originally divided into two from the cavalry camp, and they could be merged into one later, but there was nothing to worry about, so he said: "Wenlong is famous in Yue County, so there is no need to be too humble. ”
Shao Haitang and Mei Tierui glanced at each other, the personnel in the army who are suitable to lead Qingfengwei are all in important positions, and they should not be easily transferred, if they do not appoint Fan Wenlong, they will be promoted to Luo Boyuan, but Luo Boyuan's reputation and talent are worse than Fan Wenlong, although Fan Wenlong is not the most suitable candidate, but it is also unsatisfactory. Looking at Xu Ruyu's mention in public, I think I have made up my mind.
On the third floor, only Zhang Zhongdao, Jiang Lingtian, and Gu Changzhun were addicted to alcohol, and Xu Ruyu and they were bored with drinking, and they dragged Fan Wenlong downstairs to mingle, without Xu Ruyu, Shao Haitang and others present, everyone was much more presumptuous, and the alcoholics naturally had to respect the two, and those who were not alcoholics should also please the two upstarts.
Fan Wenlong's relatives received Jiang Ning through Si Wencao's secret arrangement, and they lived in a big house under Jiang Ning's rule, but Fan Wenlong waited in the council hall for a while after going ashore, and later let Jiang Lingtian, Zhang Zhongdao and others come here together, and I don't know where the family lives at this time. These matters are all handled by Tu Wenyong, but Tu Wenyong has not been asked yet. It wasn't until Xu Ruyu and Jue'er went downstairs to toast with the generals under the support of Jiang Yunuo, Shao Haitang, Mei Tierui, Xu Boying, Yi Guanyuan, Jimo Mingxi, Yun Qingxu and others, that Fan Wenlong escaped the wine robbery. Fan Wenlong cultivated to be a mystery, and he was not trapped by wine.
Zhang Zhongdao pulled Fan Wenlong aside and said, "When your people come to Jiangning, I will ask Tu Wenyong to place your house near my house, and after the banquet, you can return with me in the same car." ”
Fan Wenlong didn't know where Zhang Zhongdao's mansion was, and with an inquiring look in his eyes, Zhang Zhongdao said: "Tu Wenyong seems to know that you are going to lead Qingfengwei, and your house is next to the east side of Qingfeng Mansion. ”
Fan Wenlong is a traitor to the Fan clan, and he placed his relatives next to the Qingfeng General's Mansion because he wanted to have a strict guard there, so that the masters sent by the Fan clan would not take advantage of the gaps. Fan Wenlong thought of this festival and was secretly grateful to Tu Wenyong.
After a tour of wine, Xu Ruyu and everyone returned to the third floor, Jiang Yunuo did not return to the female table behind the screen, and said: "Although this building is based on the old system of Yongyang's appearance of Mingyue Tower, if it continues to use its name, it will be inconvenient in the end. Yongyang's Mingyue Building was originally the title of Shoujun Xu Gong, and the building was completed here, and no one wanted to name this building, so he had to wait for you to return to Jiangning. ”
Xu Ruyu said: "I stood in front of the building and thought about a few, but they were not very suitable. Since Yongyang's Mingyue Building is the title of my father, I think of a poem made by my father, he wrote 'the dream of stacking smoke in the cold pool, and the leaves and leaves fly in autumn', and the word "stacking smoke" is inverted to the evening scene of this building. Everyone said yes, Jiang Yunuo was busy with paper and ink, and Xu Ruyu wrote it with a wave. After eating two shifts of wine, the crowd gradually dispersed. Yun Niang, Cui'er, and Jue'er accompanied Youli to rest on the fourth floor, and the remnants of the seats were removed on the third floor, leaving only Zhang Zhongdao, Jiang Lingtian, Shao Haitang and more than a dozen people on the third floor to continue drinking and talking at night.
After the third watch, a little bit of excitement, everyone dispersed. Jiang Lingtian ruled the residence in the back street of Jiming Mountain, and most of the rest ruled the residence to the left of the Qingfeng General's Mansion, leaving the Stacked Smoke Building, Xu Ruyu insisted on driving for Youli and Jue'er, and the others were also leading the horses and then walking, and more than 100 people carried lanterns, such as swimming in the night river.
