Chapter 121: Teaching by Word and Deed
[Chapter 5, Volume 5]
Section 598
With a proper explanation and little evidence, the matter of the Jiyi people quickly passed.
A few days later, Jingzhong sent news again, about how Huo Zhaoyu, whom Wei Changying had asked before, was robbed of his affection.
After only looking at two lines, Wei Changying frowned tightly: "How could it be done by Changfeng?" ”
The Huang family was also surprised that Huo Zhaoyu's love was actually done by Wei Changfeng: "The maid remembers that the fifth prince should not know Huo Dagongzi." ”
"When he arrived in the imperial capital, Huo Jiayao had already helped Ling back to Yunxia County, where would he see him?" Wei Changying felt inexplicable, "What is Changfeng doing?" ”
The master and servant looked at each other, Wei Changying hurriedly continued to look, and after seeing that it was because of Princess Qingxin's words that Wei Changfeng did this, Wei Changying's face suddenly became unsightly: "Send off?" Encounter? Is that really the case? ”
The Huang family also knows that Princess Qingxin is extremely beautiful, although Wei Changfeng is not the kind of person who is greedy for flowers and lustful, but he is in the prime of blood, not to mention that Princess Qingxin is not an ordinary beauty...... But shouldn't Wei Huan and Mrs. Song's carefully trained grandson be so brainless? So Huang coughed and suggested, "Madame take a look at the bottom and write it again?" The fifth prince should not do this just because of the words of Her Royal Highness Princess Qingxin. ”
“…… He thought that the royal family had returned to Xiliang when he saw his husband, and the Su family was the only one, so he was uneasy. It just so happened that because of the sixth uncle, he also felt that he should give the Su family some expressions, so he agreed to this matter. "I heard that Wei Changfeng didn't do it for Princess Qingxin, which made Wei Changying and the Huang family breathe a sigh of relief.
It's hard to say how long Princess Qingxin's identity as a golden branch and jade leaf can be maintained, and this alone makes her definitely not suitable for Wei Changfeng. Besides, although Wei Changying does not dislike Qingxin, her goodwill is limited-even Princess Qingxin, who is now more sensible, is still far from the requirement of being a wife.
It's just that she is so good-looking, Wei Changying can't help but worry that her younger brother will be confused by beauty.
"Speaking of which, there is no news from the sixth uncle so far, and I don't know where he is hiding." Wei Changying thought about what his younger brother did for a while, and felt that it was not big or small, anyway, with the Wei family as the backing, even if the Su family didn't like it, they couldn't take Wei Changfeng - as long as there were still people in the Su family who were sober, they would never fight with the Wei family.
But Huo Zhaoyu is really pitiful, why was he pulled in again?
remembered that he had caused this person to be the concubine of Princess Anji, and now he had returned to his hometown to keep filial piety, but he was brought out by his younger brother again...... Wei Changying couldn't help but shake her head secretly, saying in her heart that her sister and brother and Huo Zhaoyu were like opponents in their previous lives, and they always wanted to trap him if they had no intention of it......
Back then, she sold Huo Zhaoyu to Princess Anji in a daze, although it is said that the two have been living well since they got married. But now that Da Wei is about to tilt, it is difficult to say what this marriage will bring to Huo Zhaoyu in the future, and Wei Changying did not intend to harm Huo Zhaoyu back then, and he feels very embarrassed when he thinks back at this moment.
So she hurriedly found another topic to divert from, "So many people are looking for it, and they have turned Panzhou over several times, how can they not find it?" ”
The Huang family also felt very strange: "Not only are the people of the Su family looking for it, but the Wei family and the Shen family are also looking for it." Even if you are afraid that the Su family will suffer the most, you will suffer a loss, so you can send a message from a reliable person! When our lord is still in the imperial capital, can he still send someone to answer it? ”
"Should it be ......" Wei Changying felt that his uncle was cunning and deep, even if he was powerless, it was not easy to have an accident with his scheming, but there was no news for a long time, and it was really hard to say, "Something happened?" ”
"Master Wei Liu has always been ...... shrewd," Huang hesitated for a moment before he said.
Wei Changying remembered Song's entrustment before the water, so he sighed: "But it's good to hope that this is not the case, otherwise Cousin Song and Cousin Song will have regrets for the rest of their lives!" ”
"Captain Mo didn't move either, maybe he was with Master Wei Liu." Huang pondered for a moment and said, "If this is the case, they will be both literate and martial, and it will not be easy to think of accidents. Besides, the Su family is about to turn the whole Panzhou over, even if something happens, how can there be no news? The maid wondered, could it be that they had already left Panzhou? ”
Wei Changying thought for a moment and said, "This is also possible. It's just that the sixth uncle's ability is too big, and in a place where he is not familiar with life, he can actually walk without leaving any traces. He frowned again, "If you have already left Panzhou, even if you can't return to Fengzhou after going around in circles, you should send a letter...... But now that I'm on the road, I want to come to my grandfather and grandmother to find out, and I may not have the time to write to me. ”
Huang smiled and comforted her: "Wait a few days at most, there will definitely be news." ”
After a few days like this, there is still no news of Wei Xinyong and Mo Binwei's whereabouts, but the news that the Rong people broke the eleven cities of Donghu was delivered first!
"How could the Donghu army be so unhelpful?" Although it was on the way back to Xiliang, escorted by 120,000 rear troops, far away from the battlefield, Wei Chang Ying was still shocked when he saw it, "Although I was also defeated last time, wasn't it because of the people of Xinzhou?" Why did you lose that time, and now you can't see anyone again? ”
The spy who delivered the letter said through the curtain of the car: "Mrs. Hui's words, the rumor is because of the struggle for power in the Burning Quinoa Hall, and the Donghu Army has also been affected. ”
"Liu Bozhao and Liu Xixun ......" Wei Changying frowned, thought for a moment and asked, "So what is the situation now?" The eleven cities were occupied by the Rong people, that is, Donghu Diguang, and now it has lost half of it. Can the remaining Liu family hold on? ”
The spy groaned: "It's hard to say, otherwise the Liu family wouldn't have desperately urged the Qingzhou Army to leave overnight!" ”
"The Qingzhou Army set off overnight? How many people did they go? Wei Changying hurriedly asked.
"According to our estimates, there should be around 200,000, but for the Rong people, it is 500,000."
Since ancient times, it has been common to lie and overstate the number of people in wars to deter enemy forces. Wei Changying still knew this, so he didn't think that the Su family was talking too much, but he felt a little worried, and asked Shi Man'er to come over and say a few words.
Shi Man'er understood, lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage, came back after a while, and said in a low voice: "Madam, the spies outside said that the emperor has made some rumors to slander the master. But not a lot...... Now I am even more worried that the Liu family will not be able to resist, and the Rong people will kill the imperial capital again. ”
"These people have suffered a lot at the hands of the Rong people, and now they are terribly afraid." Wei Changying secretly breathed a sigh of relief, although the reason why Shen Zangfeng returned to Xiliang was also to defend against the alien race - but he left so coincidentally, in the end, he was inevitably accused of being afraid of the Rong people.
Wei Changying selfishly didn't want her husband's helpless behavior to be slandered too much.
"If the Liu family really can't hold it, I'm afraid that the fall of the imperial capital earlier will happen again. Fortunately, there has been one time, and this time it is impossible for the Rong people to quietly surround the imperial capital like the last time...... In addition, I asked my subordinates to remind Cousin Song two days after I left, and I personally explained to Duanmu Xinmiao before leaving...... This time it shouldn't be as tragic as last time, right? Wei Changying rubbed his eyebrows, sent away the Shen family's spies, and called another of his own wedding guards, "You go back to the imperial capital, find Changfeng, and tell him that there is nothing important, go back to Fengzhou as soon as possible!" Don't stay in the Imperial Capital any longer! ”
Originally, she persuaded Wei Changfeng to return to Fengzhou before leaving, but Wei Changfeng thought that as soon as he arrived in the imperial capital, he was summoned by Emperor Wei to be crowned official, and everyone below said that he relied on Shen Zangfeng's brother-in-law.
Now as soon as his sister and brother-in-law leave, he will return to his hometown, and it seems that he is completely sheltered by the Shen family and can't support the scene, so he decided to continue to stay in the imperial capital.
Wei Changying, because this younger brother is going to inherit the Wei family in the future, after hearing these words, he also feels that Wei Changfeng can't leave immediately after he leaves. But at the moment, the north is not very peaceful, although he knows that the imperial capital is still safe for the time being, but Wei Changying is still not worried about his younger brother, for fear that he will be careless and leave late.
So I decided to send someone back to urge him, how can face and reputation be compared to life? What's more, Wei Changfeng is young, so he doesn't have to worry about having no chance to raise hope in the future.
The news of the defeat of the Liu family spread in the ranks, and everyone was very surprised at the extent and speed of the defeat of the Donghu army.
Even Shen Jishi, who was recuperating from his injuries, knew that because of the difference between men and women, it was inconvenient for him to let Wei Changying into his carriage, so he called his spies and nephew Shen Shuguang to go over and ask.
In fact, when the spies replied to Wei Changying, Shen Shuguang was not there, so he didn't know anything.
When his son came back from Shen Yushi's carriage, Wei Changying asked him: "You don't know what your second uncle wants to ask, why did you stay for so long?" ”
Unexpectedly, Shen Shuguang said: "The second uncle said that the child is the eldest son of the father, even if he is young and ignorant now, but this kind of thing should start listening to it on the side." ”
Wei Changying was stunned when she heard this, her face showed a complicated look, and she said, "What else?" ”
Sure enough, Shen Shuguang said: "The second uncle said that when the uncle and his father were children, when their grandfather discussed with others or ordered military affairs, they would let them listen. ”
"Then you come to Weiniang half an hour early every day from now on." Since there are examples of Shen Zangli and Shen Zangfeng, two people who have been cultivated as young lords, the second uncle reminded him again, Wei Changying of course did so, and said immediately, "Now on the road, if there is anything, I will call you over, running is tired, and it is easy to interrupt your things." If it's not particularly important, I'll wait for you to come over later, and I'll talk to you for my mother. ”
Shen Yushi only let Shen Shuguang listen, as for who said it to him but didn't say it, Shen Shuguang had no opinion: "The child obeys his mother's orders!" ”
Because Wei Changying felt that this method was really good, he originally wanted to let the naughty second son also follow the edification - but after Shen Shuxie followed his brother to listen to his mother talk about the situation in the imperial capital, he rolled around to eat, drink, play and play - Wei Changying could only sigh and let people take him away.
In this way, on the next road, as long as there is news from the imperial capital or Xiliang, Wei Changying will tell the eldest son, and say a few details to him, and the right to enlighten.
As a result, when it was close to Xiliang, a news made her stunned for a long time, and she didn't say anything to her eldest son.
After Shen Shuguang suffered a big change, his originally cheerful temperament became indifferent and silent, and he was also extremely calm. But after waiting for a long time, he still didn't see his mother speak, only said some bad news, and he asked in horror: "Mother? ”
“…… It's nothing, your sixth uncle is looking for it. Wei Changying was awakened by his son, smiled reluctantly, folded the letterhead twice and put it in his sleeve, and sighed lightly, "Think about this matter for your mother...... You're good, go play with your brother first. ”
