Chapter 292: Chong Guan is angry and is a red face, and the general surrenders to the enemy
Jin Ge and Tie Ma took out some silver, and asked the miscellaneous staff of the Qinglou Red Pavilion on the shore about the distinguished guests who were present today, and soon found the target, and the idea was mixed with the largest painting boat, and handed Jiang Ji's token to ask to see.
The person they are looking for is Hou Weihua, the eldest son of the Hou family, the governor of Lianghuai, the Hou family used to be a very powerful noble family of the Chen State, and the status is about the same as the Zhenguo Mansion of the Great Zhou, after the Chen State was destroyed, the head of the Hou family took his generals and his family to take refuge in the Great Zhou, some people said that they have a soft backbone, as soldiers, they should swear to defend the territory to the death, how can they throw themselves under the command of the enemy country, the Chen State was destroyed, they should live and die with their own country, how can they survive and steal their lives.
Hou Jia's current head of the family, I heard that when he was young, he was a member of the fierce general who was not inferior to the town of Guogong in the marching army, he was once committed to fighting against the coastal water bandits, and he was the protector of that area, and he also had a childhood sweetheart's fiancée, who was born very beautiful, so beautiful that Hou Bao now dreams of her, and the dream will be full of flowers, just to let her come with a smile.
The girl was three years younger than him, and when he was twenty years old, he went out to the army with his father, but when he returned home, he received the news that she had been summoned to the palace by King Chen.
His father was the most loyal soldier, telling him that the king had to die, and that you had to give your life with both hands, let alone your woman. But he would rather die than lose her.
King Chen is mediocre and lustful, there are countless beauties in the harem, Miss Ning has no intention of competing for favor after entering the palace, King Chen was soon attracted by other beauties, Miss Ning has no favor and no children, and has no scheming, withering in the flowery palace of King Chen, when Hou Bao heard her news, it was her maid who secretly passed it out, saying that their girl had a very hard time in the palace, she was sick, and the people of the Imperial Doctor Palace were also sluggish, he wanted to take her out of the palace, and when King Chen went out of the palace to hunt, he took his cronies into the palace, and the former lovers met, and the four eyes were relative to each other without saying a word and tears flowed first, She wouldn't go with him.
"You are the most outstanding general of Chen Guo, if you take me away, the king will not let you go, Chen Guo will lose a handsome talent because of this, our country is already devastated, you are our last hope."
She is also a woman from a scholarly family, she has received a loyal and patriotic education since she was a child, King Chen is mediocre, but she can't turn her back on her countrymen, there are no eggs under the nest, Chen Guo is broken, where can they go, he is a Tiance general who is supported by all the people, how can she covet the stain of the imperial concubine because of a lustful Lingzhi on her back.
Until now, Hou Bao regrets that he didn't take her away forcefully, otherwise how could she have died at such a young age. She is gone, taking with her all his faith, a bullshit loyal monarch is patriotic, is a mediocre monarch worthy of his loyalty? Is a nation of fallen people worthy of his love? He wrote a letter of refuge to Da Zhou behind his family's back, in which he was passionate and weeping, which made people have to believe that this was an aspiring young man who had been driven crazy by his loyal monarch.
Later, Chen Guo was destroyed so quickly, but there was no credit for Hou Bao's internal and external cooperation, and the Hou family was also infamous because of this, from the Chen State God of War in the past to the traitorous rats, Chen Guo's father had passed away when the Chen State was destroyed, otherwise he would have died by this rebel who vomited blood, and died without turning a blind eye.
The soldiers and civilians of Chen State blame Hou Bao, and Da Zhou may not accept him, a person who will betray the country for the sake of his children's personal feelings, how can they trust, not to mention that Da Zhou has no shortage of strong generals and fierce generals, Hou Bao has some talent, but his character is questionable, and the emperor is not at ease to use him.
Hou Bao had already guessed what was going on, and he also lost his enterprising spirit, and asked the emperor to let him stay at the old site of Chen State, and give him whatever official he wanted, he still wanted to protect this land and guard that person's mausoleum.
The emperor has always done a good job on the face, Hou Bao is a hero who destroyed Chen, can not be treated too lightly, gave him a lack of the governor of Lianghuai, it sounds like a high position, in fact, he is not in charge of the army, the Lianghuai region has been returned to the Great Zhou, the Yangtze River does not need to send troops to garrison, the coastal naval division has a special person in charge, he can't touch it, the most sensitive issue in the Lianghuai region is the salt administration, there is a salt envoy in charge, he is the governor is just hanging on duty, saying that it is the governor, what is the governor, who let him supervise.
This Hou family is also a decoration in Jinling, the official rank is indeed not low, many people have to respect, but not in charge of real power, people are just respectful on the face, this Hou family style is not good, the old depressed and degenerate is just that, the small one is not good at learning, the eldest son of the dignified governor's mansion, Qin Huai spent a lot of money for the drama and the servant at night, most of the people who will do this kind of thing are the children of merchants, the children of the official family cherish their reputation, and they come to join in the fun, but they don't dare to really accept people to bring them home, the old man and the old lady of the family can discount their legs, Therefore, the children of the Hou family have a lot of face in this painting boat on the Qinhuai River, after all, if the business does not fight with the official, it is an official who does not hold real power, and he is also an official.
So when this always noble and proud Uncle Hou went out to pick up people in person, many people on the boat stretched their necks to see, I don't know what kind of distinguished guests can make this Uncle Hou move his golden feet.
The person who came was a pair of men and women, both dressed luxuriously, not ordinary people could afford to wear, and their general demeanor was not like that of a merchant's child, so that the uncle of the Governor's Mansion could pick it up in person, presumably it was a child of the official family, and he also brought a veiled woman by his side.
As a result, they were stunned, and the man introduced: "This is my new wife, who has never been far away, and I took her to see the excitement." ”
This is really unusual, how can there be a newlywed honeymoon couple to swim in the Qinhuai River, and take his wife to the painting boat to sing and dance, this brother you don't want to sleep in bed at night.
Uncle Hou heard that this was his newlywed wife, and his face was a little more respectful, and he gave her the night pearl that he was going to take to please the slender girl today, and said: "I couldn't rush over when my brother and sister-in-law got married, this is a wedding gift from my younger brother to the two of you, and I hope that my sister-in-law will accept it with a smile." ”
Jing'er smiled and took it, this bead is quite good-looking, but what is he doing with such a huge and lustrous night pearl as a big man?
After the song and dance, the top brands of the oiran came down from the stage, and the rich children present all stepped forward to offer flowers and gifts, but this Uncle Hou sat still and did not move, and she realized.
She wasn't happy to give her the things she had given to the Oiran, but she had already accepted it and returned it.
borrowed the face of this Uncle Hou, the couple sat in the front row, and could clearly see all kinds of beauties on the stage, every time someone came on stage, Uncle Hou would eagerly introduce to them, saying which lady this is, what kind of skills are you best at, and what is worth...... He didn't say this, but the real lady of the family was sitting next to him.
