0871 There is a difference
In this year's Guanzhong, both people and things have revealed a relatively anxious atmosphere. People in the current of the times naturally know what the reason is, but few dare to declare it.
Today, a banquet is being held in the Chinese and foreign mansions, which is to see off Yu Wentai, the eldest son of Yuwentai and Ningdu Gongyu who is about to serve as Longyouxingtai.
Although Yu Wenyu's appointment had been issued as early as a month ago, due to the decline of Rouran, there were still many remnant forces scattered in the Monan region, and they also frequently harassed the northern Xinjiang of the Western Wei Dynasty. Yu Wenyu previously served as the assassin of Juzhou, and he needed to be in charge of logistics for the people of the northern states, so he was not in a hurry to leave his post.
It was not until the general Yang Zhong returned from Jianghan and served as the main responsibility for the defense and expulsion of the remnants of Rouran in Shuozhou, that Yuwenyu was able to return to the government to accept this order and prepare to go to Longyou.
It's not that the appointment of talents in China and foreign governments has reached such an embarrassing situation, but in today's more delicate circumstances, many personnel appointments need to have far-reaching considerations, and the selectivity will inevitably be much smaller.
The unexpected death of Zhang Wu Gongyu Wendao a few years ago was a big loss for both the Yuwen family and the Western Wei court.
Yuwendao previously succeeded the great Sima Dugu Xin out of Longyou, although it is not said that he has done better than Dugu Xin, but at least he has kept the existing situation of Longyou, and he is now the king of Taiyuan Li Boshan in the southeast of the autocratic side.
With the death of Yu Wendao, the country could not find a candidate who could replace him for a while, including the general Dou Luning, and the masses knew that it was just a temporary choice.
Because the feudal officials who have reached such a level, in addition to their own talent and prestige, there are other factors that are equally important, especially ......
Ningdu Gongyu Wenyu is the eldest son of Yuwentai, who is now in his twenties, and is polite and generous in his dealings with people, and has won the love of his relatives and the respect of the masses. In order to show his attention to the eldest son, Yuwentai also personally set up a banquet and gathered the crowd to see off his son.
Some time ago, the atmosphere in the country was quite tense, and although it has eased up now, some of the rifts that have already existed have not yet been fully repaired. Therefore, even if Yuwentai held a banquet, because of the private nature of this banquet, not all the courtiers were present.
Although there were not too many people attending the banquet, the atmosphere was quite lively, and when Yuwen Yu responded generously to the toast of the guests, he was also praised and blessed by the guests.
However, with the arrival of Da Sima Duguxin, the atmosphere of the banquet could not help but change. Regardless of which side the masses were on, they were naturally well aware of the changes in the domestic situation.
Since last year until now, Duguxin and Yuwentai have rarely appeared in the same frame except for the inevitable court meetings and important ceremonies, and now they appear on the same occasion because of Yuwenyu, and the masses can't help but wonder how the two will get along.
There was no obvious change on Yu Wentai's face, but he pointed at Yu Wenyu with a pleasant face and said with a smile: "Don't hurry up to meet your father-in-law!"
Soon Dugu Xin entered the hall under the guidance of Yu Wenyu, first saluted Yu Wentai who was sitting above, and then glanced around at the crowd who stood up and waved, and then said with a smile: "I'm late, please forgive me. But it's late today, not because it's reserved, it's really something to delay."
As he spoke, he beckoned out of the hall, where several of his servants carried two richly decorated cages. Dugu Xin personally stepped forward to open the cage, which contained saddle bridle riding equipment and a set of armor and sword uniforms.
"As you get older, you get stronger. Whoever hears and sees it wants to be called to the door. Fortunately, the master loves him too much, and he is willing to get married with a long rest. I know that the Taishi's family teaches Zhuang Jin, and the children he teaches are not mediocre. There is no need to be virtuous several times, and the son is already strong, so he can be appointed with confidence. Even if there are occasional incidents, there are old things that can be remedied. Today, Erlang is finally available, and I am also very relieved, and I hope to have a majestic journey!"
Dugu Xin first pointed to the utensils in the cage and introduced it, and then looked at Yu Wenyu with relief and encouragement and said with a smile: "This is going to Longyou, do you have the confidence to be thoughtful and prosperous?"
Yu Wenyu has a modest and peaceful temperament, and is not very public.
But at this moment, in front of his father and all the guests, he was asked by his father-in-law like this, so he could only hurriedly say: "The relatives and friends have great hopes, and they dare to speak timidly! Only do your best, serve your family and country, put your liver and gall, and die without regret!"
Yuwentai was already talking about life and death during this time, and after hearing this, he frowned and reprimanded: "Longyou is not a foreign wilderness, and he has been guarded and governed by famous ministers several times, but he can be governed in order and in person, and the past is not wasted, and he can get it, and there is nothing else to say!"
After hearing this, Yu Wenyu hurriedly nodded yes, and immediately expressed his gratitude to his father-in-law for this intimate gift.
Dugu Xin frowned slightly at Yuwentai's attitude towards his son, and after a little groaning, he grabbed a saber from the cage and handed it to Yuwenyu's hand, and said with a smile: "At the beginning of the incident, there were also pioneers, and I gave them a knife. Although his subsequent fame was not caused by this knife, he also used this story to inspire his son, but he is diligent and has a promising future!"
His words may not have any particularly clear direction and implication, but they make those who hear it a little uneasy.
Yuwentai frowned at first, even if he immediately stretched out, grabbed the wine glass on the table and handed it to his mouth, only to find that the wine glass was empty after a slight sip, and glanced at the servant who was serving wine next to the table, and snorted coldly: "Don't hurry up and serve wine and vegetables for Da Sima!"
Sometimes people tend to be more anxious to cover up something, but the more traces will be exposed, and then Yuwentai's whole person is a little out of state, and it is more obvious that the tone of the voice is a little higher than just now, and it is also a little faster.
Some of the people present noticed this subtle change, and some did not, but even if they saw it, they didn't dare to reveal it, and they inevitably became cautious.
On the other hand, Dugu Xin is more calm and casual, no matter who hands over the words, he can deal with them appropriately, and he is even more teaching Yu Wenyu, who is about to go to Longyou, and imparting some of his experience in guarding Longyou to this son-in-law without reservation.
When everyone saw this scene of Weng and his son-in-law's harmony, they all laughed and laughed, but one of them grinned and said, "Da Sima's care for Ning Dugong is really touching. Presumably, the king of Taiyuan must have been carefully taught by this back then, so that he has the fame of his current merits!"
In the first half of these words, it was slightly buried by some laughter, but in the second half, the whole hall was silent, and it was harsh and abrupt. And after the man said this, Xuan even froze directly on the spot, but the smile on his face was a little more ugly than crying because of the bounce and trembling of the muscles under the skin.
Dugu Xin sat next to Yuwentai, and could already hear Yuwentai's wheezing voice faintly becoming short and dull, so he waved his hand again and said with a smile: "I'm just a vulgar trick, how can I be a fool? It is a real honor for the younger generations to be able to be taught by him."
After everyone heard this, they were all busy snorting and rounding the scene back, but the atmosphere that had been destroyed could no longer be recovered, and everyone became like pins and needles, only feeling that it was torture to endure for an extra moment, but they felt that it was even more embarrassing to leave the table early. So under the torture of the guests and hosts, the banquet lasted for another half an hour before Duguxin got up and said goodbye.
The awkward scene of a banquet is just a small episode of daily life, which naturally does not cause any major change in the situation, and other things are still going on and happening as usual.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Yuwentai's division of the two sons into Longyou and Kanto as the line is a further layout. To be honest, it is still a bit risky to make such an attempt when the prestige of the hegemony has been damaged, but now except for the Chinese and foreign governments, the most powerful Shannan Dao Daxingtai has no statement on this, and others naturally dare not say anything.
Because of the support and guidance of his father-in-law Duguxin, coupled with the personnel foundation left by his cousin Yu Wendao, Yu Wenyu quickly assumed the responsibility of the platform after arriving in Longyou and managed the personnel of Longyou. Of course, the most important work content is to transport the personnel and materials of Longyou to Guanzhong, after all, it is currently in the war period of attacking the Northern Qi Dynasty.
However, the other Kanto Provincial Xingtai Yuwenjue is relatively lackluster, although Yuwenjue served as Xingtai, but did not actually arrive, but only with the long history and the general Li Yuan who also served as Kozuka Zai, he went to Hongnong again to carry out a series of expeditions
Prepare for personnel.
When he heard that there was no shortage of people in the mansion praising his brother's performance in Longyou, Yuwenjue was indignant, and couldn't help but complain with Li Zhi, the secretary of the Chinese and foreign mansions who had close contacts: "These mediocre slaves are mostly sycophants. I haven't come out now, if something happens to me, I won't be able to know it? Now that there is no comparison of advantages and disadvantages, why should these servants be in a hurry to show off their lips! Da Sima is an elder in vain, and he is in a hurry to create extravagance, and he is also not a good person!"
