[Chapter 5, Volume 5]

Section 592

"Back to Xiliang?" Wei Changying asked in surprise, "Is this accurate?" Or is it still being discussed? ”

Shen Yongkun said: "If there is no accident, it is a quasi-thing." Now, Mr. Shangguan has secretly ordered some of the people in the 'Thorn Fence' to return to Xiliang first to prepare. Just wait for the news of Zhao Duwei and others in Panzhou...... Even if there is no news, after some time, the army will be opened. ”

Wei Changying suddenly frowned: "The army is back to Xiliang, so ...... in this courtyard?" ”

"The third brother's intention is to leave a few elderly and frail servants to guard here. The others asked the third sister-in-law to take care of them and go back with the rear army. "Shen Yongkun was ordered by Shen Zangfeng to discuss with his sister-in-law about returning to Sangzi today, and at this moment, he told the third brother when he came, "Now that the Rong people in the north are pressing the border again, and there are troubles everywhere when they leave Gyeonggi, if the Xiliang army continues to entrench here, it will inevitably be difficult both internally and externally." It was the third brother who decided to adopt Mr. Shangguan's suggestion and temporarily return to Xiliang, not only to stabilize the hearts of the people in the clan, but also to wait for the opportunity. ”

"There is nothing wrong with the people in our family, and the Ji family must also miss Xiliang's relatives." Wei Changying groaned, "But Miss Gu ...... Take it with you too, or do you give it back to the Gu family? ”

Shen Yongkun heard this: "The third brother said that it is just a little girl, and when we are about to leave, the third sister-in-law sent someone to the Gu family to ask, if the Gu family wants to keep their daughter, they will send her back, and if they still want to ask the third sister-in-law to raise them on their behalf, it doesn't hurt to bring them." After all, the Gu family is actually not too suitable to raise her now, how can we say that our fourth sister is her future aunt, and it is reasonable for our family to raise her. ”

Before, Gu Wei sent his only daughter Gu Sheng to the Shen family's courtyard, although everyone tacitly sent a hostage, but the symbolic significance of this hostage is far greater than the actual meaning. Because although Gu Wei is such a biological flesh and blood under his knees, the weight of an only daughter is not comparable to that of a male heir.

In the final analysis, the Xiliang army is here, and the lives of the Gu family brothers are in the hands of the Shen family. This move is just a gesture.

So it doesn't matter if Gu Sheng is a hostage or not.

If the Xiliang army retreats to her hometown, it naturally doesn't matter if this little girl takes it with her or not.

But Gu Sheng's hostage involved the blood feud of Shen Xuan and others, and Wei Changying couldn't be self-contained. At this moment, the brother-in-law relayed her husband's words, so she was relieved: "Then I will send someone to ask at that time." ”

asked Shen Yongkun if he had anything else to say, so Wei Changying asked him to go and see Huo Qingling: "Second brother can get up and walk around these days, and his injuries are much better." It's the sixth brother and sister, who have to get sick from time to time. Doctor Ji saw it and said that it was a heart disease, although I often went to persuade him, but the pain of separation of flesh and blood was not something that others could comfort. I also hope that the sixth brother will be more attentive. ”

Shen Yongkun and Huo Qingling's knot is because of Wei Changying, Wei Changying feels indebted to Huo Qingling's brother Huo Zhaoyu, and takes special care of this brother and daughter-in-law. At this moment, the words are to remind Shen Yongkun not to forget his wife when he is busy with business.

Shen Yongkun originally respected his brother and sister-in-law, and after the great change, he paid more attention to his family, and at this moment, after listening to his sister-in-law's words, he hurriedly got up to lead the training, and said yes again and again.

After he left, Wei Changying thought about the matter of returning to Xiliang, and felt that the most worrying thing was that in addition to Huo Qingling's sick and crooked body, there would be anything wrong on the road, and what needed to be worried about was the eldest son's homework.

Because if the Shen family avoided Xiliang, Wei Changfeng would definitely not follow.

But compared to the overall situation, these two things are not worth mentioning - Xiliang has no good talents, and Shen Shuguang is only six years old, how can he not find someone to teach him? What's more, he doesn't need to learn as a martial arts general, he is a talented man, and he has to learn what he really wants to learn, Shen Zangfeng has to teach.

"However, even the husband has decided to withdraw to Xiliang, and it seems that the imperial capital will soon become the target of everyone." Wei Changying frowned slightly, and thought of Song Zaishui, Su Yufei, and Duanmu Xinmiao, "If you don't remind them and don't leave the imperial capital, you may encounter difficulties in the future...... But if you remind them that the reputation of the husband is ...... Wouldn't there be any trouble leaking out......"

After thinking about it, Wei Changying decided, "When you are about to leave, hint at Cousin Song, cousin should know the proportions." ”

As for the others, "just ask my cousin to tell me on your behalf, after all, there is a relationship." What's more, there are no more people after the fall of the imperial capital, and if something happens again, the nobles will be too withered in the future. ”

She made up her mind here, so she ordered someone to find Wei Changfeng and asked him, "How do you plan to teach Guang'er next?" ”

Wei Changfeng was asked inexplicably, and said, "But brother-in-law thinks I can't teach well?" Did you send someone to the eldest sister to ask? ”

"Why are you so easy to get distracted?" Wei Changying smiled dumbly when she heard this, "Your brother-in-law has always said that you studied under Mr. Qianjiao, and it is his blessing that Guang'er can get your personal guidance." Two days ago, I took Guang'er into the city to see him, and he repeatedly told Guang'er to listen to your teachings and not to slack off! ”

Wei Changfeng was relieved and said, "The eldest sister didn't ask me how to teach Guang'er before, I think that when I suddenly ask now, it must not be what the eldest sister meant." ”

"That's what I mean." Wei Changying narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, "You also know that Xiliang doesn't have any prestigious Confucianism, and it is impossible for you to follow Xiliang. Who knows what kind of master can be found for Guang'er in the future? I can't say that I want you to work hard, give him a direction, and then I can compare and confirm what his new master taught, so as not to be mistaken by others! ”

These words made Wei Changfeng startled, and blurted out: "You want to go back to Xiliang?!" When!? ”

"I don't know, the sixth uncle came over and said this just now." Wei Changying nodded his lips and motioned to him, "Don't be quiet, you know that the Liu family is urging the two border armies to rush north to help, and my father-in-law and they died in the hands of the Rong people...... If you go, not to mention that you have to come by yourself for this battle, and even if you buy grain from the south in the Xiliang army, it is actually very dangerous to store grain...... Do you think he can go back? ”

When Wei Changfeng heard this, his expression was a little subtle, and he was silent for a moment before he said: "The Xiliang Army thinks so, if the Qingzhou Army doesn't care about the north and retreats to Qingzhou, then if the Liu family really can't hold it, and the imperial capital falls into the hands of the Rong people again, don't you say that at that time, won't the Rong people drive straight into the Central Plains and wreak havoc on the Central Plains?" ”

Hearing the disapproval in his words, Wei Changying couldn't help frowning and said, "The Rong people are ravaging the Central Plains...... Aren't those riotous people raging now? ”

Wei Changfeng said: "No matter what, the Rong people are a foreign race after all. What's more, just by looking at how they treat the imperial capital, you know how cruel this clan is! Of course, the chaotic people are also attacking each other, making Li Shu uneasy, and it is impossible to kill all the people of his own clan after all. ”

"But if your brother-in-law leads his troops north to help the Liu family, even if he blocks the Rong soldiers, what will he do himself?" Wei Changying bit her lip and asked rhetorically, "Zangji and Ming'er are young, and they can't suppress the people in the clan at all!" My father-in-law and they are all gone, and now the Shen family is looking after your brother-in-law and the remaining brothers are all young, and they all covet the position of the lord! I won't hide it from you - the Lord Jin Yin was lost with my father-in-law when he broke through, and he hasn't found it yet! This was a trivial matter when your father-in-law was there, but this will be a big thing, even if your brother-in-law goes back this time, you don't know how to get through this hurdle! ”

"You said that your brother-in-law has been sending people to buy grain from the south these days, and he really thinks that it is too troublesome for Xiliang to transport grain, and he plans to store that grain and grass for future use? Although there are some such thoughts, even if your brother-in-law wants to use the grain and grass that Xiliang has stored for many years, he must transport it! Those uncles and uncles...... Who wouldn't love to pull your brother-in-law down and let their branch take the place of the sect? ”

Wei Changying sighed disheartenedly, "All in all, even if there is no help from the Liu family here, I see that it is inevitable that your brother-in-law will go back for a while in person." ”

"Mr. Shangguan ......" Wei Changfeng hesitated for a long time before he said, "Mr. Shangguan is a talented person, doesn't he have a good way?" ”

"If he has a good way, he will also suggest that your brother-in-law go back to Xiliang?" Wei Changying frowned, "Besides, the current messy situation has been made by several generations of Emperor Wei, how can it be sorted out in three or five months?" It's not something that one person can do well. ”

She suddenly lost interest in talking to her younger brother, waved him away, and said, "This matter can't be said now, even if you don't like your brother-in-law to lead the army out of the imperial capital now, you won't even want to pit your eldest sister, right?" ”

Wei Changfeng hurriedly said, "What did the eldest sister say?" I won't say it. ”

Watching Wei Changfeng go out, the Huang family, who had gone to invite him over, spoke up: "Don't be angry, madam, the fifth prince has benevolence, but he is young in the end, and he only pities Li Shu when he thinks about it, not for our master." ”

Wei Changying shook his head and said, "Li Shu is hard, why don't I know this?" It's just that this Kuang helps the world, Zhou Ji Li Min, at least at this moment, the husband can't take care of it. In fact, although the sixth brother didn't mention it, I can also guess that the husband promised Shangguan Eleventh this plan, and his heart must be tormented. However, what can be done in such a situation? At the end of the day, we're just one family. ”

The troubles left by the deaths of Shen Xuan, Shen Zhou and others have now reached the point where they must be resolved.

Even if Shen Zangfeng still has an army of 300,000 in his hands, he doesn't know how much higher than the starting point of many forces in the troubled times. Not to mention that Shen Zangji and Shen Shuming are both in Xiliang, it is impossible for him to leave this brother and nephew alone. Just say that the 300,000 army in his hands, almost every soldier is a native of Xiliang - these people are willing to follow him, not because he is a Dingguo Duke or a hussar general, but because he is the son of the Shen family's own sect!

It's a child of the Xiliang Shen family!

Once Xiliang is lost, it's really hard to say how many of these people are willing to follow him.

It's not that Shen Zangfeng's wrist is not enough to keep people, but since these 300,000 troops are all children of Xiliang, their parents and relatives are all in Xiliang - they are also people, and they have to think about their families!

Therefore, Shen Zangfeng must go back and completely dispel the doubts about whether he can still bear to take charge of Ming Peitang without the support of his elders!

In fact, Wei Changying suspected that Shangguan Shiyi had wanted to suggest Shen Zangfeng like this for some days, and the Liu family's request for help was just to give him a chance to bring it up. Shen Zangfeng insisted on staying in the imperial capital for these days, why didn't he struggle repeatedly in the desire and reality of waving his army to the north?

She sighed, and suddenly felt extremely nostalgic for the kind of disturbance that she had when she got married at the beginning of the year and fought with the two concubines—the troubles and anger at that time seemed to be not worth mentioning now—and Huang said listlessly, "I just hope that everything will go smoothly after returning to Xiliang...... I also hope that this troubled world will settle down as soon as possible! ”
