Chapter 70: King Qi's Decision
Huangfu pondered for a moment, he didn't think much about the bloodline of the family, he was thinking about another thing, that is, the Su family was actually related to the Donggong lineage, and Su Hanzhen, the assassin of Donghai County, was the prince's henchman, but he didn't hear that Su Xun clearly expressed his support for the prince.
If the marriage is really successful, maybe you can win over part of the support of the Su family, especially Su Xun is full of peach and plums, and he has a wide range of contacts in the court, as long as he can get some connections, it will also be of great help to his career.
Although he also knew that this kind of thing was difficult, but he could try it, so he smiled and said: "It's always a good thing that Qiyu wants to marry a wife, I agreed to this matter, what to do, you can think about it yourself!" ”
Luo Qifeng was overjoyed, in fact, she just wanted her husband to express his attitude, as for what to do, she knew in her heart, so she got up and thanked her again, "Thank you for caring about Qiyu, I will teach him a good lesson, and he will not be allowed to cause trouble again." ”
......... Princess Qi went down, Huangfu was pacing back and forth with her hands behind her back, just now the princess mentioned that Huangfu Wujin, but let him have a thought, why does the emperor want to adjust the festival degree envoys in various places, according to the system, it should be changed every five years, this year is only the third year, and the rumor of adjusting the festival envoy suddenly appeared, could it be related to King Liang?
Huangfu knew that only the Helong Jiedu was not controlled by his father, and it had been in the hands of the Liang Dynasty for decades, which was also a compromise reached with the Liang King when the first emperor seized the throne.
But decades have passed, and any emperor Yanjing can't bear this separation of military power, even if it's in the hands of the imperial family, he can't accept it, and his father will inevitably make a move.
In connection with the fact that in the past two days, the emperor suddenly made an exception to crown Huangfu Wujin as the Duke of Liangguo, and Huangfu felt that the statement of adjusting the Jiedu envoy this time may be related to the Xiliang Army.
This Huangfu Wujin is a key figure and deserves attention.
At this time, a report from the guards came from outside the door, "Your Highness, Captain Liu has arrived." ”
Liu Duwei is Liu Sijun, the second senior brother of Wujin, who appeared as an envoy of King Qi in the Qingheshui military camp, he is Huangfu's henchman, is the militia training captain, and is in charge of 10,000 Zhuangtian private army, he is extremely cunning, and he is also one of Huangfu's dog-headed military divisions.
"Let him in!"
Huang Fu Yuan already knew that he was Wujin's senior brother, so he specially asked him to ask about the situation.
After a while, Liu Sijun walked into the study and knelt down in front of Huangfu Chen, "Humble Liu Sijun see His Royal Highness!" ”
Huangfu sat on the chair and waved his hand slightly, "General, please get up!" ”
Liu Sijun stood up, a little uneasy in his heart, he was a good man for money and lust, in the past few days in Beijing, he has been messing around in the Qinglou, drunk and dreaming of death, ignoring the matter of King Qi, he is afraid that King Qi will ask something, he will not be able to answer.
Huangfu Yan picked up the ginseng bowl, took a sip slowly, and asked unhurriedly: "I want to know about the situation of Huangfu Wujin, I haven't had time to ask you about the Qinghe military camp last time." ”
Hearing that he was asking Huangfu Wujin, Liu Sijun immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said: "Wujin is my junior brother, but his martial arts are very high, especially crossbow shooting, it can be said that he is alone in the world, but he is a relatively stupid person, everyone calls him stupid, I have been alone with him for a long time, and I know him very well." ”
"Stupid?"
Huangfu sneered, "Can he break through from the Qinghe Water Army, can he also be called stupid?" ”
Liu Sijun's face flushed, he had been difficult to explain the matter of the Qinghe Water Army, and he muttered: "This matter is also very strange, but the lowly position does understand that Huangfu Wujin, maybe it was someone else's idea." ”
A sense of disappointment swelled up in Huangfu Chen's heart, he thought that Liu Sijun could bring him valuable advice, but he was still disappointed.
"Huangfu Wujin is now the Duke of Liangguo, the deputy governor of the Chuzhou Water Army."
Huangfu raised his eyelids, and two sharp eyes shot at Liu Sijun, "Don't you know such a big thing?" ”
"Ahh Liu Sijun exclaimed in surprise and froze.
After a while, he relieved himself and whispered to himself, "Impossible, how can he be, he is obviously a fool, how can he be?" ”
"General Liu, I'm very disappointed in you, you keep saying that Huangfu Wujin is a fool, but if he is a fool, can he send the East Palace tax and silver to Beijing safely? Is it possible for him to put Shao Jingwen together in Yanshi County? ”
Huangfu snorted and sneered again, "I don't think he's stupid, on the contrary, I think he's very smart, the emperor met him yesterday morning, and after meeting him, he was named the deputy governor of the Chuzhou Navy, isn't he stupid, even the emperor doesn't know?" ”
Liu Sijun's face was swollen red, he lowered his head, and didn't dare to say a word, but he couldn't figure out how Wu Jin could become smart in his heart, and he couldn't figure it out.
Huangfu looked at him for a long time, and finally said slowly: "Forget it, I don't want to mention the previous things, I came to you today to want you to find this Huangfu Wujin." ”
Liu Sijun was taken aback, "But the last time the Qinghe military camp happened, will he still believe me?" ”
Huangfu Yuan's eyes narrowed, "Does he know that you were also in the Qinghe military camp at that time?" ”
He ..... I shouldn't know, but Zhao Xun knows. ”
Huang Fu pondered for a moment, and then said: "Anyway, after all, you are his second senior brother, go try it and get in touch with him." ”
"But what am I for?"
"There is no purpose for the time being, and Jean Lala has a relationship, apologize to him on my behalf."
"The lowly duty understands, and the lowly duty will do it as soon as possible."
Liu Sijun said goodbye and left, Huangfu was still pondering, he was still thinking about Huangfu Wujin, but at this time he was more concerned about Huangfu Wujin's deputy governor of Chuzhou's navy, which was actually mastering Chuzhou's navy, which had a vital interest in his trade.
At least, he can't offend Huangfu Wujin.
........ On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, a few families were happy and a few were sad, and unlike the courtesy that Wujin received when he returned home, he was scolded by his father when he returned home in nine days.
Jiutian's father is named Su Hanchang, is a doctor of Taixue, and is also the eldest son of Su Xun, the son of the country's priest, Su Hanchang has two sons and a daughter, the eldest son Su Yu, three years ago in high school, the current county commander of Pingcheng County, Taiyuan County, the second son Su Qi, last year in the Jinshi, the current chief of the ordnance supervisor.
The youngest daughter, Su Han, that is, Jiutian, has just turned sixteen years old.
The reason why Su Hanchang scolded his daughter was because Sufu's family education was very strict, and his daughter was never allowed to go out at night, although Su Han also took his sister Su Yi out of the night door a few days ago, but Su Hanchang happened to be not at home that night, and he didn't trouble his daughter, but on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival today, his daughter actually went home alone after dark, and she went home alone from Tianji Temple in the west of the city, which made Su Hanchang extremely annoyed and slapped the table and scolded her daughter.
"How did I educate you since you were a child, you are not allowed to be outside after dark, you are a single woman, and you are the eldest granddaughter of Su Mansion, if something happens to you, how do you let your grandfather face the world, it will seriously damage your grandfather's reputation, don't you know?"
Su Han knelt on the ground, bowed her head and said nothing, although she had many reasons, but she didn't have to do it, she didn't want to deceive her father, the best way was to be silent.
Su Hanchang's wife Zhou stood aside, very anxious, Zhou was originally a flat wife, three years ago Su Han's mother died of illness, Su Hanchang wanted to straighten Zhou, but the three children did not agree, to this year's New Year, the two sons felt Zhou's sincerity, and agreed to Zhou's rectification.
But Su Han resolutely disagreed, so she had a big quarrel with her father, and went to Donghai County to rely on her second uncle Su Hanzhen in anger, and met Wujin in Donghai County.
Zhou is very virtuous, and she is also very considerate of the three children left by her ex-wife, and she herself gave birth to a son and a daughter, all of whom are younger than Su Han, but she loves Su Han even more.
Zhou was also worried for a day, when Su Han came back just now, Zhou also specially promised that her husband would not blame her, but her husband actually regretted it and scolded her daughter again.
She felt uncomfortable, and finally couldn't help but step forward and kneel with Su Han: "Master, Jiutian can't come back because there is no carriage, you know, Yi'er's child is not very sensible, he didn't tell me that Jiutian is still in Tianji Temple, I didn't send a carriage to pick her up in time, but Yi'er is still young, I can't blame her, this should also be my responsibility, I should have asked Yi'er at that time, but I was busy with the Mid-Autumn Festival and ignored it, master, please don't scold Jiutian, if you want to scold, scold me." ”
Su Han didn't expect her stepmother to take all the responsibilities in the past, she was moved in her heart, and hurriedly said: "Erniang, this has nothing to do with you, I didn't tell you when I went to Tianji Temple, and I didn't tell my father, it's my fault." ”
"Okay, don't fight, get up!"
Su Hanchang had a gloomy face, he didn't want to make a big deal about this matter, and when his wife helped his daughter up, he said slowly: "The reason why I'm angry is that I only knew one thing just now, in Tianji Temple, Jiutian and Yi'er actually met Luo Qiyu, the brother of Princess Qi, although he didn't succeed in the end, but why didn't Jiutian go back to his house immediately, and stay in Tianji Temple, putting himself in danger, I just got angry about it, it's dark, but Jiutian has no news at all, can you not be in a hurry?" Nine days, it's really your fault. ”
Jiutian only knew that her sister did not tell everyone about Wujin, she secretly felt fortunate in her heart, her relationship with Wujin is to some extent, called private life, this is a very serious matter, once the family knows, the consequences will be unimaginable, especially if the grandfather knows, he will never agree to his marriage with Wujin.
Still unable to explain, she still lowered her head and said nothing.
Su Hanchang glanced at his daughter again, he still wanted to ask again, it can be seen that his wife is quietly waving her hand to him, meaning that he should not ask again, he thinks that the relationship between his daughter and her stepmother has just improved, and he should still give his wife a face, so that the relationship between them can continue to be harmonious at this opportunity.
Maybe let my wife ask about this matter in detail for nine days, and don't ask about it myself.
"Alright! Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, I won't sweep everyone's interest, nine days, you reflect on yourself, I don't want a second situation. ”
