Chapter 41

After Master Wu went down, he followed a few colleagues to stay in the tavern for a while, and when he heard the rumors about their mansion in the capital, his whole face turned blue.

Colleagues were discussing the upcoming autumn season, and General Wu was not good at leaving the scene early, so he had to suppress his anger and listen to his colleagues talk about business.

At this time of the year, the soldiers who serve the people will first test the political theory and the art of war, and after these two examinations, the emperor will personally assess whether they can enter the court as officials.

But this year, the emperor wanted a different autumn season, and he asked Prince Yan to recruit good players from all over the Great Xia Kingdom, and directly exempted them from political opinions and the art of war, which made those noble generals worried. General Wu has always wanted to get rid of his grassroots identity and squeeze into the ranks of the nobles of the high gate, so he has been mixing with them.

"General Wu, what do you think?" The city protector general, who was originally from the Xie family, asked. After all, General Wu is a general of Zhenguo and a poor family, so he must have a unique opinion on this matter.

"How can the emperor's holy will be something that we can figure out?" General Wu smiled and replied sloppily. General Wu doesn't know what others think, but he understands, the emperor doesn't like him very much, he transferred himself to the capital and separated his soldiers, and handed over the tiger talisman, although on the surface he is the general of Zhenguo, and he is in the limelight in the Great Xia Kingdom for a while, only he knows that the power in his hands now is a castle in the air, just can see and touch. Coupled with the rumors, General Wu couldn't calm down and talk freely with his colleagues.

Maybe it's the bad nature in his bones that makes him unable to tolerate the slightest gossip about him.

The chatter around them grew louder and louder, and even his colleagues, who were concentrating on business, heard a lot of words about General Wu. They looked at General Wu and wanted to ask the reason, but because of General Wu's identity, they never asked.

General Wu looked at his colleagues' eyes and changed2, and together in his heart, he got up and went again, without even having time to say hello. He wants to go back to the house and ask his wife for clarification!

General Wu returned to the mansion in a vigorous manner, but before he reached the main courtyard, he was stopped by Wu Wanyi.

"Say hello to Daddy." Wu Wanyi's face looked pale, and she deliberately raised her sleeves up so that people could see the scars she had embroidered.

Her plan was very successful, and General Wu did see the wound on Wu Wanyi's hand at a glance, and the ugly scar looked particularly dazzling and hideous on her snow-white delicate skin.

General Wu frowned, and the anger that was originally angry at her also subsided, "What is the matter of stopping my father?" If a person is injured, he will take care of his injuries and no longer stay in the yard, what are you doing here? ”

"Daddy, Wanyi is here to admit her mistake to you, yesterday my daughter shouldn't have said in front of everyone that she wanted to enter the Yanwang Mansion," Wu Wanyi said gently, "But Daddy, Wanyi has a hard time doing this." ”

"Bitter?" Speaking of Wu Wanyi's invitation to enter the Yan Wangfu as a side concubine, General Wu was still a little angry, "If you surrender your identity and become a concubine easily, what can you do!" ”

Wu Wanyi looked around, "Daddy, please be cautious, be careful that the wall has ears." Daddy, the little girl has something to say to her daddy, I don't know if daddy can spare time? ”

General Wu looked at this daughter he didn't value too much in surprise, she seemed to have changed a lot. Thinking of the rumors circulating on the street, she still needs to come forward to clarify, "Let's go, let's go to the study and talk." ”

"Thank you, Daddy." Wu Wanyi replied without sadness or joy, but let General Wu take a high look.

Mama Yang was originally waiting for the lord to come over outside the main courtyard, but just now the porter had already spoken, and the lord came over angrily. Just waited for a while and didn't see the old man's figure, Mama Yang hurriedly looked for it, but saw that the eldest lady called the old man away. Mama Yang sighed in her heart, and hurriedly went out to report to her wife.

"Now you can speak freely, let's talk." General Wu sat casually at his desk, staring at Wu Wanyi.

"Daddy," Wu Wanyi replied to General Wu's gaze, "you didn't attend the lotus banquet yesterday, and there is something you may not know. Yesterday, the emperor took all the princes to attend the lotus banquet hosted by the eldest princess, and even Princess Rui, who had just come out of confinement, attended, but only Prince Yan did not appear. And the emperor didn't look too angry. ”

"This.... What does it have to do with your self-surrender and entry into the Yanwang Mansion? You are the eldest daughter of my dignified general's mansion, how can you be a concubine? "General Wu is deeply concerned about this matter.

"Daddy, Wanyi knows that you are more optimistic about the Emperor of the Servant, so I want Wanyi to marry into the Mansion of the Emperor of the Servant." Wu Wanyi explained unhurriedly, "It's just that Daddy can't see it, does the emperor prefer Prince Yan?" ”

"What do you know about this national event?" General Wu felt that Wu Wanyi's idea was really naΓ―ve, "Who will inherit the unification in the future, how can it be based on the emperor's preference?" "General Wu said that, but he was beating the drum in his heart, does the emperor really prefer Lord Yan? Why didn't he feel it?

"Daddy, Wu Wanyi doesn't understand national affairs, but Wanyi still understands the truth that it is not safe to put eggs in one basket." Wu Wanyi pretended to be close to General Wu and said as if she was coquettish. "Daddy, who can say for sure what the future holds? The emperor is the emperor after all, what if he leaves a killer weapon for Lord Yan behind his back? Moreover, the Mansion of the Emperor of Servants already has Wanqing, if Wanyi also enters the Mansion of the Emperor of Honor, then won't our Wu Mansion put all the chips on the Lord of the Servants? How strong is Daddy's influence in the court, Daddy must know better than Wanyi, but when other princes are jealous that Prince Yu has you, a father-in-law who is dedicated to him, they will not be able to huddle together to deal with Lord Yun, even if Lord Yu has three heads and six arms, in the face of the concentrated attack of so many people, Lord Yu can't cope with it. ”

General Wu fell into deep thought, Wu Wanyi's words were right. "It's just that you can't have two masters, otherwise the masters on either side will have a grudge."

"Daddy, where are you the second master?" Wu Wanyi said puzzledly, "It was Wanyi who entered the Yanwang Mansion without authorization, and it has nothing to do with you, Daddy." However, Wanyi entered the Yanwang Mansion, and when the time came, Daddy was deciding who to follow depending on the situation. If the prince is strong, even if the father is not with the wrong person. If Lord Yan is taken care of by the emperor, Daddy also has an alternative, right? ”

"But in this way, I have wronged you...."General Wu was moved by Wu Wanyi's words, and then, his tone softened.
