After the meeting with Gao Silun, Shao Shude went directly to Anle Hall.
Zhe Fangmei was watching a few children playing.
She gave birth to a boy in early June. At that time, Shao Shude was supervising the battle in Heqing. He wrote back and named him Mingyi.
After fourteen years of marriage, Zhe Fangmei gave birth to two sons and one daughter to Shao Shude. She handled family affairs easily, handled matters fairly, and was respected by everyone in the family.
Shao Shude was promoted to the Queen of Xia, and Zhe Fang Ai was now a first-class princess. The ceremonial guards, carriages and uniforms were all regulated, and the dignity was born by itself.
According to the system, the prince has one concubine, who is of the first rank; two concubines, who are of the fifth rank; and ten concubines, who are of the sixth rank.
The princess is naturally beautiful, and her official title is "Princess Xia".
The two "Xia Wang Ruren" are Zhao Yu and Da Feng.
They are Xiaofeng, Yeli, Wuzang, Weicai, Zhuge, and Xiao. There are only six of them, and the quota is not full. Shao Shude gave them a lot of concubine titles, and generally called them "Xia Wang"
lady".
Other women, such as Bai Shi, sister of general Bai Gui, may have foreign wives who were granted titles, but they did not have the status of Xia Wangnu, and their status was essentially the same as that of maids.
Pei Zhenyi, my identity is too embarrassing. I won’t have an official identity until I clear my name...
The country has a patriarchal system. Children and concubines must bow when they see the princess. Among the concubines, Zhao Yu "courtesy the same as the princess" and does not need to bow. Other women must bow when they meet Zhao Yu.
The children can only call their biological mother "aunt" or "aunt", and Zhe Fangxiao is their mother. If a concubine has made meritorious service, the title will only be given to the aunt, not the biological mother.
But rules are rules, and the Shao Mansion is generally not so strict. This was Shao Shude's request, and Zhe Fang Ai silently accepted it without saying anything.
"What the princess asked, I found out clearly. Zhang Jiye, the son of Zhang Quanyi, became seriously ill after the Mengzhou mutiny. He died of fright in his dream some time ago. Quanyi and Quan'en's family were detained in Jinxian Temple, and His Highness treated him with courtesy.
, I am not lucky to have the daughters of Chu, Su, and Jie." The maid, Zhe, reported in a low voice.
This girl was brought by Zhe Fang Ai from her hometown. She was relatively senior. She had a wife from Yinchuan County who was granted a title. She had always been with Zhe Fang Ai and she was highly trusted.
Zhe Fang Ai nodded when she heard this. She knew all too well about her husband's old habit of doting on other women. Although she felt uncomfortable in her heart, she would endure it silently. However, Zhang Quanyi's family really couldn't move for the time being. It was okay.
I wanted to give some advice, but it seemed that my husband knew what he was doing, so he felt relieved.
However, Zhang Jiye's death cast a shadow over the matter.
And that Golden Immortal Temple! Is your husband planning to build a Bronze Sparrow Tower? Where will he be able to keep his "trophies" in the future?
"Don't talk too much about the Golden Immortal Temple!" Zhe Fang Ai looked at the maid and ordered.
"As ordered." The maid responded.
A group of children, tired from playing, came over to salute and then rest.
Zhe Fangmai waved to someone, smiled and hugged him in her hand, and asked: "Does Sanlang miss home?"
"Sanlang" didn't want to be held, so he struggled to get down, and said anxiously: "Auntie, let me get down."
Zhe Fangmai pinched his face and pretended to be angry: "You don't like Auntie?"
"I like it." Sanlang struggled twice and finally came down.
"Then do you like my uncle?" Zhe Fangmai held his hand and refused to let him leave.
Sanlang paused and thought about it for a long time. He seemed to have no impression of his uncle and stayed there.
"My uncle has been talking about Saburo. The gift I gave you yesterday was a gift from my uncle." Zhe Fang Ai said with a smile: "In the future, I must work hard to practice martial arts, build a career for my uncle, and make my aunt look good."
Sanlang is Zhe Silun's child. His name is Congyuan and he is four years old this year. He was bigger than other children when he was born. He is very smart and very popular with Zhe Silun.
Of the three sons of the Zhe family, the eldest son seems to be inheriting the family business. The second son has average conditions and cannot be a good military officer. The third son must be trained to become a military commander no matter what. As a frontier wealthy family, it is indeed shameful to have no generals to support their appearance.
.
Historically, the Zhe family guarded Linzhou and Fuzhou successively. They had no choice, and all members had to go into battle to fight. But now it seems that there is no need to work so hard, so the eldest son, Zhe, learned to control people.
Although the tactics and martial arts are good, they will definitely not develop in this direction.
It is difficult to say how Zhe Congyuan will develop in the future, as the environment is different. Historically, Shi Jingtang cut the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun and the Linfu area in Hexi. Because Zhe Congyuan raised troops to resist orders, the Khitans were blocked from outside the country, so in the end
Only sixteen states were cut off - Wu Luan of Yunzhou was also disobedient, but his end was not good. Shi Chonggui formed an alliance with the Khitan and gathered grain, grass, soldiers and horses. Wu Luan conquered Beizhou, and the Khitan leader Yelv Deguang
When they came to attack, Shao Ke, the Yamen general, caused trouble and opened the door to lure Khitan in, whereupon he died.
"Your Highness is here." While she was joking with Saburo, Zhe Fangxiao heard the sound of the announcement and immediately straightened her clothes.
"Madam, you want to hurt me." Zhe Fang Ai was about to salute when Shao Shude pulled her into his arms, while several children snickered beside her.
Zhe Fang Ai broke away with a blushing face, chased the children away, then took Shao Shude's hand and sat down.
"How are you at home?"
"everything is fine."
Shao Shude nodded and said: "A virtuous wife is known both internally and externally. I don't know how much worry I have saved by marrying a virtuous wife."
"My husband is busy with big things, but I can handle the trivial matters at home."
Shao Shude felt a little embarrassed after hearing this. In fact, he had plenty of time when he was away from home, and he was not always busy with military and political affairs. He hid the Jinxian Temple matter and never let his wife know about it, which made him proud.
Handwriting.
"In a few days, my husband may...maybe...maybe going to war again."
Zhe Fang Ai was a little surprised and said: "Which family do you want to conquer?"
Want to attack the emperor! Of course Shao Shude would not say that.
"I received news today that there is an undercurrent in the capital and there is turmoil. The Shence Army has mutiny due to lack of rewards. The saint is frightened and uneasy, and sends the prime minister to appease him, but to no avail. Cui Zhaowei suggested that the saint stay in Nanshan for the time being and wait for the situation.
Return to Chang'an after stabilization." Shao Shude explained: "Ximen Zhongsui, the military envoy of the 12th Guards of the Tenth Army, invited me to Beijing. They wanted to take Shi Zan, and Li Kuangwei had no choice."
Zhe Fang Ai thought silently for a moment, and then asked: "My husband is coming to Beijing this time, won't-"
"Of course not!" Shao Shude laughed: "It's not yet time. Quanzhong has not been destroyed and my sworn brother is still here, how can I do such an unethical thing? Madam, don't worry too much, I have my own sense of proportion. Wang Bian is at home.
I have to find a place for him."
"Could it be Jing Zhaoyin?" Zhe Fang Ai guessed.
"I'm also hesitating about this matter and haven't made up my mind yet," Shao Shude said.
"As a woman, I can't say much about this matter. It's up to the husband to make his own decision. The position of Jing Zhaoyin attracts the attention of all the people, so the husband needs to handle it carefully."
"Madam, what you said makes sense." Shao Shude praised.
He respected and loved his own princess.
When the princess is not wearing clothes, she loves her; when she is wearing clothes, she is respectful.
Moreover, she seems to have some political wisdom, and Shao Shude is also willing to discuss some things with her. Sister-in-law Liu is so outstanding, so naturally my wife is not bad. She talks with Chen Cheng, Zhao Guangfeng and other greasy men every day, and her thinking may be confused.
Confined.
"There is one more thing to do when I come to Beijing this time." Shao Shude added: "Sichuan has reached a critical moment, and I plan to intervene. Or in the name of the imperial court, the prime minister will take command and lead the army and the troops of Shuofang, Fengxiang, and Xingyuan.
Go south and order Zhu Mei and Li Maozhen to resolve the fight. At that time, we will see step by step that the commanders' positions in the east and west rivers can also be rearranged."
Zhe Fang Ai began to think.
Shao Shude looked at her cute frown and started to move subconsciously.
However, Zhe Fang Ai was wearing clothes now and had another personality. She quickly grabbed Shao Shude's hand, but unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, the hand had already penetrated to the innermost part. The speed was breathtaking.
"Husband!" Zhe Fangmiao said angrily: "Sichuan is far away, and it is easy for people to be tempted. It is better to leave the command of the East and West Rivers to a prime minister and control it in the hands of the court. Even if it is not possible, the status quo must be maintained and cannot be made.
Zhu Mei, Li Maozhen and others took possession of the whole of Shu."
It might have been possible before to let the prime minister serve as the governor, but what is the trend now? No matter how obedient the feudal towns were, they gradually no longer took the imperial court seriously, especially the towns in the south.
Jing Haijun was relatively submissive when Gao Xun was the military envoy more than ten years ago. This may be related to Gao Pian's recovery of Annan's legacy. After Gao Xun was transferred to Shaanxi and Guo, Zeng Gun became the military envoy. As a result, the sergeants rebelled.
, forcing him to leave the city for temporary refuge. After two years of doing this, he found that his ability was really poor, so he transferred his clan members to a higher position and sent Gao Maoqing, the Jiangxi Observation Officer, out of Jiaozhi.
Gao Maoqing worked for three years, and everything went smoothly, but he really didn't like this place, so he transferred Xie Zhao to serve as Jinghai Jiedu, Annan observation and disposal envoy, Annan protector, commander-in-chief of Jiao, Lu, Ai, Chang, and Fu.
It has been ten years since the establishment of eleven prefectures including Lu and Wu'an.
But what he did was not very interesting. Local aristocratic families slowly infiltrated the political power and military power, and wanted to be the emperor of the country. This made him very haggard, and he kept writing letters asking him to become an official in the court.
In fact, it’s not just like Jiaozhen.
In Jiangxi, Hunan, Qinghaijun and other towns, local tycoons gradually emerged and seized various powers.
Not only the vassal towns, but also the state level was almost occupied by local tyrants. Wu Dao, the governor of Huangzhou who had just taken refuge with Yang Xingmi, was a local tyrant. For many years, the imperial court's control over the south had been relatively tight, but it gradually loosened after the Chao Rebellion.
Now, a terrible power vacuum has emerged. However, the southern towns and government offices have few soldiers and weak forces. Historically, civilian officials have served as military envoys and observer envoys. Once the majesty of the imperial court is lost, it is easy for local tycoons to take over.
Shao Shude was absolutely unwilling to hand over the command of the East and West Rivers to a military general. He planned to take advantage of the fact that the imperial court still had some residual prestige in the south, and use the imperial court as a shell to barely maintain the situation there first, and then free up his hands later.
Come on, let's find a way to actually control it.
As for who the handsome position will be given to, he still has to go to Chang'an to investigate carefully and conduct an interview.
In addition, it seems that some of our own people can be included among the military attachés of the imperial court.
For example, An Youquan, who succeeded Xie Zhao as the governor of Jinghai Navy in history, was a Hedong general from the ninth surname of Zhaowu. Li Keyong entered Guanzhong to torture Li Maozhen, and the person who was inserted into Wang Xingyu when he was in power was General Yulin.
Marshal Shao used to pay great attention to the impact, but after Heqing defeated the 100,000 Bian army, he became a little "floating" and felt that he could start a more aggressive operation and prepare for a rainy day.
Wu Zangzai Si has been with the Shence Army for many years, and he works hard without complaint. Maybe we can give him a chance to reach the top in one step and leave the town of Jiaozhi.
