In fact, it’s not just Luoyang Lubu Feijie.
After the news of Qingzhou's restoration came back, all the counties in Henan sent knights to spread the news everywhere. They also copied a copy of the victory document and posted it at the city gate or at the intersection of the main road, so that the Xian envoys knew about it.
The response was very enthusiastic!
Wang Dun was gathering troops in Sui County and wanted to attack Yiyang. He was frightened by the news and stopped.
Gan Zhuo led his army northward and captured Xinxi County. He was about to raid Runan deeply, but retreated hastily to Xinxi County.
Ji Zhan went north along the canal and went deep into Ruyin. After burning, killing and looting, he defeated the reinforcements sent by Qiao State. When he was satisfied, he heard that Qingzhou had fallen and had no choice but to retreat.
The Wu soldiers north of the Huai River retreated to the military city and even stopped looting.
In the direction of Hanoi, the Shengsheng Army became increasingly active and had repeated battles with the Huns, and their morale was high.
Han Anxi General Liu Yaben had planned to besiege Wen County, the Jin people's only stronghold in Hanoi. Shi Hu even prepared to send troops from the direction of Ji County, but the plan was finally terminated.
The herdsmen from all walks of life are very happy about this. The pastures only turn green in March and April, and it is already late May after the farm work is completed. It is not easy to take a breath, but you say you want to go to war?
The only one who hasn't given up is probably Shi Le.
He sent troops from Jingxing and attacked Changshan and Zhongshan. There were people in the area who responded and there was a lot of commotion.
However, he could not stand on his own. He just robbed some people, livestock, and food and took them back. It is okay to be disgusting, but it cannot change the overall situation in Hebei.
Of course, Bianliang received the most enthusiastic response.
Yu Wenjun, who gave birth to a son in early March, slowly recovered. After hearing the news of her husband's victory in the Eastern Expedition, she was overjoyed. She didn't think too much about military or political issues, she was simply happy for her husband.
When the husband gets what he wants, he is happy, and she is happy.
Compared with Yu Wenjun, Yu Chen, Yu Liang and his son have different meanings of being happy.
On June 12, Yu Liang held a banquet in his new residence in Bianliang to entertain guests.
The Liang Kingdom originally had four generals of the front, rear, left and right armies, but later added four generals: Qingchao, Wuya, Huwei, and Caiguan.
Compared with the former, these four generals have a mixed atmosphere, but they are not bad, they are generals after all.
In particular, Yu Liang served as the Caiguan General, who had the important task of building the palace, and Liang Gong also held this position, so it was not that complicated.
Today's grand banquet at Yu Mansion was organized for Yu Liang.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but since Mrs. Yu gave birth to an heir, more and more people have been approaching the Yu family, and their attitudes have become more and more respectful.
When Yu Liang was happy, he inevitably drank a few more drinks. After he excused himself and left the banquet, he went to his backyard and drank a bowl of tea soup to suppress his overwhelming drunkenness.
The general offered wine to Hu Wufu in the West Pavilion, the military counsel offered wine to Wen Qiao, Shang Zhi joined the army, Jing Chan was the governor of the record office, Chen Qi, the Weiwei of Liang Dynasty, Yin Xian, the minister of Duzhi, Zao Song, the minister of Zuo Min, Yang Man, Huang Shizhong
The door servant Chen Kuang (former Yingchuan prefect) and others gathered here, chatting and laughing.
Among these people, Hu Wufuzhi, Wen Qiao, and Yang Man were Yu Liang's close friends.
Shang Zhi is the elder brother of Mrs. Shang in his mansion and is from Dunqiu.
Jingchan was also from Dunqiu, and was a small local gentry who came to Yu Chen when he was the governor of Jijun.
Yu Liang's other concubine, Li, was also from Dunqiu, and his uncle Li Shou is currently the prefect of Dunqiu.
The three counties of Ji, Wei, and Dunqiu are all within the territory of the Liang Kingdom. Yu Chen, Yu Liang and his son are still very influential here, and there are many people who fawn over them openly or covertly - most of them are the foundation laid by Yu Chen.
Brothers Chen Qi and Chen Kuang were Yingchuan scholars, and Yin Xian and Zaosong were also Yingchuan scholars.
To put it bluntly, this is the core circle of the Yu family at the political level.
Yuan Neng, the general's chief registrar, was originally there, but he left after giving a gift, which made Yu Liang feel a little regretful.
The Yuan family is a wealthy family in Chen County, Yuan Chong is the servant, and Yuan Neng is Liang Gong's sister-in-law. This family should not be underestimated. They are all Yuzhou nobles, and they will be closer to each other in the future.
"Yuan Gui, Liang Gongquan took Qingzhou, and the people were very popular. I heard that the Taiwei asked for three additional counties. Is this possible?" Yin Xian, the minister of Duzhi, burped from wine and asked.
"Yes." Yu Liang also drank, his face flushed, and his words were a little arrogant: "After Qingzhou was captured, the inner worries disappeared, and Liang Gong's foundation became more stable. You must not slack off in the future, you must do it
Do your best for my brother-in-law. Also, my brother-in-law—"
Wen Qiao didn't drink much. Hearing this, he patted Yu Liang and said, "Yuan Gui!"
"Taizhen, don't make any noise." Yu Liang said with a big tongue: "My brother-in-law——"
Wen Qiao patted her hard again and said, "Yuan Gui, lend me some money."
Yu Liang was interrupted twice, but he didn't want to be angry with Wen Qiao, so he could only say helplessly: "What do you want the money for?"
"Marry a wife." Wen Qiao said matter-of-factly: "If you don't give it, I will have to lie to my cousin."
"Cousin?" Yu Liang was stunned.
"Yes." Wen Qiao nodded and said, "My cousin is quite old, and my aunt is not familiar with the place, so she asked me to find a talented person in Bianliang for her. I thought about it, if I really don't have money to get a wife, I can
If you don't want your wealth to go to outsiders, recommend yourself to my aunt."
Yu Liang kept laughing wildly and completely forgot what he had just said.
Everyone also laughed.
Wen Qiao was thick-skinned and didn't take it seriously. He just listened to what he said: "Nowadays, all the talented people in the world gather in Bianliang. Alas, it's a good thing that my cousin and I have known each other since childhood. Otherwise, how could we compete with each other?"
Yu Liang was speechless: "You are thirty years old, how can you get to know your cousin who has not left the court since childhood? Do you want to save face?"
"Due to displacement, my cousin has been delayed and has not yet gotten married. In fact, she is as old as Mrs. Yu." Wen Qiao said expressionlessly.
Yu Liang choked.
Wen Qiao is thirty years old and his cousin is twenty-one.
Mr. Liang is thirty years old and Mrs. Yu is twenty-one years old.
Liang Gong often said that he and Wenjun had known each other since childhood.
Who are you laughing at?
"Forget it." Wen Qiao waved his hand, pretending to be sad and said: "I know you won't. If I really can't do it, I can only agree to the lieutenant and marry the Langya Wang family's daughter. They don't want money, they just want me. Qingzhou has been restored, and most of the descendants of the Wang family in Langya have a chance to flourish. Under the combination of Qingxu and Qingxu, their future prospects are limitless. If I marry a daughter of the Wang family, won’t it mean that I will rise to prominence?"
Yu Liang woke up a little and bowed to Wen Qiao.
Wen Qiao stood up impatiently and said, "What are you doing with so many vulgar rituals? Borrow money."
"You want to marry your cousin?" Yu Liang asked innocently.
"I'm going to turn over the copy." Wen Qiao said, "Not only does Langya Wang's daughter not want any money, but she also brought a large dowry. She will pay you back in the future."
After saying that, he cupped his hands and said, "Just give the money to my home. If you can't stay for a long time, I'll go now."
Watching Wen Qiao leave gracefully, Yu Liang knew that he had decided to marry Wang's daughter. However, their love was still there, as evidenced by his repeated reminders today.
Yu Liang sighed.
Zaosong observed the words and said: "Why did Yuan Gui sigh? Liang Gongping set Qingzhou, and no one from the north and south of the river dared to stroke his tiger's beard. This rising trend is just the time for us to use our lives."
Zaosong was from Yingchuan Changshe, but his family was a little unfamiliar with the Yingchuan gentry, and he himself had been an official in Hebei for many years. Now that Liang Gong had risen from Henan, Zao Song was eager to reintegrate into the circle of Yingchuan gentry. Very active recently.
"That's right." Yu Liang nodded and said: "Qingzhou is a great place to cheer up people far and near. There were ignorant and ugly people in Runan, Runyin, Nanyang and other places who were secretly communicating with Wu people, but now there is no movement. Taiwanese people say that That's right, it's time for us to serve. We will help Liang Gong take care of the place and help him conquer Bingzhou and achieve his great cause."
After saying that, Yu Liang suddenly thought that he was just a talented general who managed the people, and he felt a little discouraged.
As of today, more than two-thirds of the Guanfeng Hall has been completed, and half of the Huangnu Palace has been completed.
The Shao Ancestral Temple has been completed, and the Bianliang Martial Arts School is under construction.
The site selection for the third building complex of Liang Palace, Lingbo Hall, has been completed, and the foundation can be laid only when the Qingzhou prisoners arrive.
This is a water-view palace. Yu Liang, Liu Qiao, and Yu Zhi discussed many times to strive for perfection, and even planned to transplant some precious flowers and trees from Luoyang to embellish the palace.
It's important, but it's not what he wants to do.
He was actually aiming at the post of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel in Liucaoli. There has never been a suitable candidate for this position - maybe there is, but Liang Gong was undecided - for the past year, all the affairs of this Cao Cao have been managed by Pei Miao, the Minister of Public Affairs.
There are rumors recently that avant-garde general Liang Fen may take up this post.
There is no doubt that this is a surprising choice.
Xizhou scholars have always been in a weak position under Liang Gong, and they are mostly concentrated in the Mianbei Shogunate and the General's Palace. If Liang Fen becomes Cao Shangshu of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, it will be the first time that Xizhou scholars invade the high-level positions of Liang Kingdom.
Considering that Liang Fen was the leader of Xizhou scholars, this is even more meaningful.
But - how could Liang Fen betray the emperor and seek refuge with Liang Gong?
Furthermore, it was previously rumored that he was going to be the Sili Xiaowei, but later the position was obtained by Du Yin, the prefect of Hongnong. Du Yin's granddaughter married Shao Shen, the nephew of Liang Gong, the newly promoted Huwei general. Yu Liang once thought that Liang Fen was unwilling to do so.
He's out of work.
I didn’t expect that, this old guy!
He was very compassionate when he offered Wancheng before. I don’t know if he really thought that way or if he was pretending. In short, after Liang Gong publicized it for him, his reputation greatly increased. Many people were impressed by his character and had many contacts with him, including many
Henan scholars.
Irritated!
Why do people jump out one after another to compete with the Yu family and even the Yingchuan scholars?
Recently, I heard that some descendants of the Pei family have fled to Bianliang, and members of the Langya Wang family have returned to the north. These two families have completed two marriages within one year, and the trend of merging is very obvious.
Yu Liang felt a sense of crisis.
He felt that the scholars of Yingchuan and even Yuzhou must not be careless. At this time when Qingzhou was being pacified, they still had to refresh themselves and show Liang Gong that his foundation was still Yuzhou after all.
In addition, my nephew has already turned 100 days old. Although it is still a little early to establish a heir apparent at this time, it is not necessarily impossible.
Thinking of this, I have made a decision in my mind.
Although he could only continue to work hard to build the palace city, he could let his father come forward and use his influence to collect more funds and troops from the counties in Henan to prepare for the next stage of Liang Gong's northern expedition to Hanoi, Jijun and even Bingzhou.
Liang Gongquan took over Qingzhou, and his territory was getting bigger and bigger. If he didn't cheer up, the dominance of the Yuzhou scholars might be shaken, and the status of the prince would also be threatened.
Chapter completed!
