Chapter 5 Undercurrents

"Father, this is not good! It's enough for me to marry one, and it's so unfair to them all if I marry three at a time! Although men want to enjoy the blessings of all people, Wang Yuze still feels that he should be a little more reserved.

"Those who achieve great things are not informal! You also know the interests that the three of them represent behind them. Marrying them will be very helpful for you to control the situation of the three provinces in the future. Yang Hua is now the governor of Sichuan Province, and if the Government Council is established in the future, he is a good candidate for the Prime Minister of the Government Council. Zhou Rongxuan is now the president of Xihua Group, and he controls our huge overseas assets, which has always been my royal family's money bag. At present, many industries in the three provinces of western Sichuan are directly invested by Xihua Group. In particular, more than half of the heavy industry is controlled by the Xihua Group. Therefore, if you want to control the three provinces in western Sichuan, you must have their support! Wang Xiao said in a deep voice. Obviously, for Wang Yuze, he has paved the road as much as possible.

"Father, I know. But if you do that, will you make them unhappy? Wang Yuze asked with some concern. Now Wang Xiao is using his prestige to propose marriage to Xiong Wu, Yang Hua and Zhou Rongxuan, and the three of them are afraid of everyone's brotherhood and Wang Xiao's prestige, so they can't help but agree. However, in this case, it will inevitably make them have a pimple in their hearts, and it is also very unfavorable to the stability of the situation in the three provinces of western Sichuan.

"I've thought about that for a long time. If you can't control the three provinces of western Sichuan and inherit my business, they will inevitably think that you are not worthy of their daughter. But if you can inherit my cause well, and carry it forward, and finally overthrow the Manchu Qing and become emperor, will they still be dissatisfied? So, this qiē is in your own hands! Wang Xiao said to Wang Yuze.

"Yes, Father, I see, I won't let you down!" Wang Yuze also figured this out, and he firmly believed that he would be able to do it.

"Okay, that's good. I've set a time for you, just today next month. I found someone and it was a good day! Wang Xiao said with a smile.

"Yes, father, it's up to you to arrange it!" Wang Yuze replied. Although the time was very tight, he was used to it. Since he can marry three at a time, what else can't he accept? Anyway, everything was arranged by Wang Xiao for him, and he didn't have to worry about it.

"Okay, then you are ready to be the groom's officer! You have to work hard, I still hope until my grandson is born! Wang Xiao's eyes were full of longing.

"Hmmm! Father, then I'll go first. Pay more attention to your body! Wang Yuze said.

Wang Xiao waved his hand and knelt on the desk again, dealing with those texts.

Wang Yuze took a breath, calmed down his mood, and quietly left Wang Xiao's office.

After walking out of Wang Xiao's office, Wang Yuze couldn't help but shake his head helplessly, in a blink of an eye, he was about to get married, and he had to marry three women at once, which made him a little unbelievable. However, this is the good thing in this era, as long as a man has the ability, he can marry three wives and four concubines. Like later generations, although there are many powerful people and women, everyone dares to put it on the bright side.

There is still a month to hold the chaos, and Wang Yuze plans to use this time to take a good walk in Sichuan Province, what is Sichuan like in this era. Especially those industrial bases, which are related to how far he can go in the future. In this era, in addition to people, industries such as steel are the most important. The three major industrial bases of Qijiang, Chengdu and Panzhihua under the three provinces of western Sichuan have undoubtedly supported the development of the entire industrial industry in western Sichuan.

The young marshal of the three western Sichuan provinces will marry Chief of Staff Xiong in a month's time, and the news of Governor Yang and President Zhou has also spread throughout the three western Sichuan provinces through various channels. Hearing this news, some people are relieved, some people don't care, and some people secretly hate it.

Now the high-ranking officials in the three provinces of western Sichuan, whether they are government or military generals, are basically old brothers who fought the world with Wang Xiao at the beginning. They naturally respect Wang Xiao very much. But for Wang Yuze, the heir, it is not very good. After all, the three provinces of western Sichuan can have today's situation, in addition to Wang Xiao's leadership, their efforts are indispensable to be able to compete with the Qing court, and they are also unwilling to fall into this foundation. If Wang Yuze has the ability to inherit this inheritance, most of them will certainly support it. But if Wang Yuze doesn't have this ability, then they will definitely have to think of other ways. Of course, there are a very small number of people who have bad intentions. Wang Yuze's cowardice and incompetence are exactly what they hoped for. Of course, they know the meaning of Wang Yuze's marriage to Xiong Menghan, Yang Shilan and Zhou Rui. However, it also made them very resentful. There is no doubt that if Wang Yuze has the support of Xiong Wu, Yang Hua and Zhou Rongxuan, it will be very difficult for them to replace Wang Yuze and usurp the foundation of western Sichuan after a hundred years of Wang Xiao.

Chongqing, the second largest city in Sichuan Province, is also an important gateway to the east. At the same time, Chongqing was also a place bordering Hubei, which was under the control of the Qing court. The Western Sichuan Army deployed an integrated division here, focusing on defending against the enemy in the east.

The West Sichuan Army has three divisions and 10 brigades, plus the military headquarters and other totals more than 150,000 people, the three divisions are instructors, the first and second divisions of the West Sichuan Army, and the 10 brigades are the 1st Brigade to the 10th Brigade. Among them, the Second Division, with more than 18,000 people, was deployed to the east of Chongqing and was an important barrier for western Sichuan to defend against the Qing court.

Liu Xiang, commander of the Second Division of the Western Sichuan Army, with the rank of major general, is only 37 years old this year, and he is undoubtedly very young compared to those forty or fifty-year-old veteran generals in the Western Sichuan Army. But at the same time, he was also ambitious. Mastering one of the most elite units of the Western Sichuan Army, he was naturally unwilling to be a division commander all the time. However, as long as Wang Xiao is still in the sky, he can only hide his ambition deep in his heart. Once Wang Xiao is a hundred years old, then he doesn't have to worry about it anymore.

As the second largest city in Sichuan Province, Chongqing has always been at the forefront of urban construction, and various infrastructure construction is very perfect, and now it has initially had the scale of a mountain city.

The mayor of Chongqing is also a high-ranking figure in the western Sichuan government. Almost all the successive mayors of Chongqing have been able to serve as vice governors of Sichuan Province, and it can be said that as long as they become mayors of Chongqing, they are almost equivalent to knocking on the door of senior provincial officials. Liu Wenlong, the mayor of Chongqing and the current mayor, is the uncle of Liu Xiang, commander of the Second Division of the Western Sichuan Army. The uncle and nephew colluded with each other, and almost made Chongqing the world of their Liu family. It's just that Wang Xiao is alive, and the uncle and nephew don't dare to make any changes. But once Wang Xiao has three strengths and two shortcomings, their uncle and nephew will rebel.

It was night, at the official residence of the mayor of Chongqing, Liu Wenlong and Liu Xiang's uncle and nephew were drinking. It's just that neither of them touched the dishes on the table, and they drank vigorously and drank alcohol.

"Uncle, the old man's trick is too shameless, right? actually found three wives for that kid, and tied Chief of Staff Xiong, Yang Hua and Zhou Rongxuan together at once, if we want to succeed, it will be even more difficult! Liu Xiang put the wine glass in his hand on the table, looking very depressed.

"No way, who called the old man is still handsome now. The giants of the army and the government are all obedient to the old man. He personally proposed marriage for the little guy, who would dare not agree? Liu Wenlong drank the wine in the cup and said hatefully.

Although Liu Wenlong is Liu Xiang's uncle, he is three years younger than Liu Xiang, and he was able to serve as the mayor of Chongqing at the age of thirty-four. As one of the only three division commanders of the Western Sichuan Army, Liu Xiang is still in power.

"Fuck it, Chongqing is our territory anyway, even if the little guy comes to power, if he dares to take care of our affairs, Lao Tzu will turn against him and defect to the court. You know, Guangxu promised that as long as we took refuge in him, we would make our uncle and nephew the envoy of western Sichuan. Liu Xiang's eyes shone with the light of ambition.
