Chapter 1028 Return to Yànbei, father and son talk at night
It has been raining continuously in the east of Hedong recently, but the land in Yanbei is full of stars and as quiet as water.
It has been nine months since Wang Yu left Yanbei, and he finally set out to return to Yanbei again.
Wang Yu boarded a troop carrier from Hedong and headed east and then north, only stopping for a few days when passing through Hebei Road.
Hebei Province has been suffering from wars in recent years.
In the land of four rivers, Hebei Province has been the most affected by war in recent years.
Moreover, he is also responsible for the important task of supporting the Zhendong Army together with Yanbeidao.
Fortunately, the governor of Hebei Province was a great political talent like Guan Zhong, so Hebei Province not only did not decline, but also continued to develop.
However, this time, two new territories were acquired, and when the two county governors were selected, several county governors from Hebei Province were transferred.
Therefore, Wang Yu stayed in Hebei Province for a few days. Once there, he had a detailed understanding of many affairs in Hebei Province. This is where Wang Yu really started and where Longxing flourished.
Secondly, I also wanted to express my condolences to Guan Zhong. Over the years, whenever Guan Zhong managed to cultivate a bunch of helpers, they would be kidnapped by Wang Yu midway.
Furthermore, he also asked Guan Zhong to arrange things and let him follow him back to Yanbei for a few days.
Accompanying him were two generals: Zhu Yuyan, Bi Xiuxin, Li Yuanba and Dian Wei, eight hundred Tiger Guards, one thousand light cavalry, and two thousand foot soldiers. After more than twenty days of running around, they finally stepped into the
The boundary of Yanbei.
And Wang Yu returned to Zhendong City once again, and finally returned after a great battle. The whole Zhendong City and the palace were filled with joy.
The palace was decorated with lanterns and decorations, with many festive red lanterns hung up. The palace maids and eunuchs wore brand-new costumes and were busy preparing for banquets. The general returned tonight and the concubine held a banquet on behalf of the emperor.
The guards inside were patrolling back and forth, and everyone was busy.
Not long after Wang Yu took control of Zhendong, he had already moved the concubine Dongfang Xuerou, the eldest princess Huangfu Jingya and even the entire small court of Huangfu Mingze to Yanbei. Moreover, he moved the governor's mansion, which had always been useless, to Yanbei.
Temporarily serve as a palace for them.
Although the conditions were a bit crude, they had no choice but to make do with it.
At this time of national crisis, we can't build a palace for them in Yanbei, right? If Yanbei supports it financially, then Wang Yu doesn't mind. However, Wang Yu himself is short of a small amount of money and would like to break a piece of it into pieces.
Two halves of flowers.
Although Huangfu Mingze died, at least in name, Wang Yu did not dissolve the small court.
He announced to the outside world that he would select a person with both ability and political integrity from the Huangfu royal family to be the emperor in the future. However, Wang Yu has not selected this person with both ability and political integrity yet.
Therefore, the concubine Dongfang Xuerou acted as the emperor's supervisor, and Wang Yu, the general who controlled the country and controlled the east, exercised the power of regent and took charge of the affairs of the court.
Although Dongfang Xuerou nominally listens to politics behind the curtain, it seems that she really only has the right to listen.
When the world was strong, Dongfang Xuerou still had true dignity and rights, whether as the original imperial concubine or as the current dowager.
But now, with Da Cang's appearance, the rule of the Huangfu family exists in name only, and naturally her so-called concubine also exists in name only.
Even, it can only be used as a puppet.
Strictly speaking, Wang Chang and Wang Yu, father and son, are still his murderous enemies!
However, she could still only serve as a tool for Wang Yu to maintain his rule, deeply hiding her hatred.
Even a few months ago, someone from the Dongfang family suddenly contacted her. Didn't she know what was going on? But, what choice could she make? If even the Dongfang family, her best support, was lost, then what would happen to her?
She really has no hope in the future.
Even if she disagrees with that matter, the Dongfang family will definitely complete it through other channels and will not care about his opinion as a woman. And she, a woman, is more fundamental to the future path of the entire Dongfang family.
It's of no importance.
Under the overturned nest, there are still eggs!
The collapse of the heavens has destined people like them to struggle to survive in this troubled world.
There are rumors that the general will formally marry the eldest princess Huangfu Jingya when he returns to Yanbei this time. Therefore, the whole city is filled with a festive atmosphere.
However, it is unknown where this gossip came from. What we do know is that within a few days, the news had almost spread throughout the streets and alleys in the entire town of Dongcheng, and it quickly spread.
The ground radiates to the entire Yanbei.
Even when Wang Yu returned to Yanbei, he was confused after hearing this gossip.
Although it is true that Wang Chang has always had this idea, and Wang Yu has not explicitly rejected it, he has not nodded directly yet. Even if he wants to nod, he still needs to wait for an opportunity to come.
What's the matter! He's getting married, and the person involved doesn't even know it yet!
It’s so outrageous that his mother opened the door for outrageousness, it’s so outrageous!
Therefore, Wang Yu, who heard the street gossip not long after returning to Yanbei, was full of dark things.
The banquet was held in the Zixiang Hall, which deserves the name of the main hall of the imperial palace. It was transformed from the main courtyard of the Governor's Palace. It is twenty feet long and eight feet wide. The middle pillars are carved with dragons and phoenixes, and the walls are inlaid with gold foil. It is magnificent and divided into three parts.
There are four doors, the main entrance is the entrance to the palace, the two side doors are for palace ladies and eunuchs to enter and exit, the back door is hung with long scrolls of dragons and phoenixes, and there is a bedroom behind the curtain for temporary change of clothes and rest.
During the banquet, there was naturally singing and laughing, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
Presumably, even if there is unhappiness, no one will find it in this situation. Even if they want to find unhappiness, they will not leave it today.
Fine wines, delicious food, and the sound of silk and bamboo.
Yang Qin, Gu Zheng, and the music of bells and drums.
There was even a beautiful girl dancing in the center of the hall to the music.
These beauties are of great beauty. Even if the civil servants present have beauties and actresses at home, the beauties at home are not as beautiful as these beauties dancing gracefully in the center of the hall.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Beauty and wine, many mouths are drooling. If it weren't for Wang Yu being here, he would probably live broadcast the creation of a human being.
Although Wang Yu has a good drinking capacity, he can't stand too many people toasting to him.
Moreover, these people were all Zhendong Wenwu who had not long ago joined him. Wang Yu had to drink from these people.
Not long after he took over the power of Zhendong, something happened in Xirong. Not long after he came back, something happened in Tianlang Pass, and then the battle between Hedong and Shanyang started.
Therefore, I really haven't had a good relationship with his subordinates who I was already familiar with.
Even though Wang Yu had a good drinking capacity, his cheeks became rosy as he drank one glass after another.
One cup after another, even if Wang Yu deliberately refused, and sometimes even drank a sip on his body without drinking it in his mouth, but even so, Wang Yu's head began to feel dizzy.
Wang Yu knew that if he drank anymore, he might really get drunk. After traveling to this world, Wang Yu had been drunk only a handful of times. The last time he was drunk was during the Battle of Xirong.
However, he cannot get drunk today.
After being away from home all year round, it’s not easy to come home once, but here you are drunk, leaving all the beautiful wives and concubines to stay alone in an empty room. Isn’t it hateful!
Therefore, when he realized that he was drunk, Wang Yu used a classic urine escape technique.
However, as soon as he came out of the main hall, he saw the dejected father Wang Chang.
Yes, no need to think about it.
It seems that his father got into trouble with his mother again.
Huangfu Yuwei originally lived in a courtyard under the name of Zhendong, always accompanying the ancient Buddha with green lanterns. However, when this dilapidated small court was moved to Yanbei, she also moved into this palace not long after.
within.
Eating food and chanting Buddha's name, where is not eating? There is no difference between a courtyard under the name of Zhendong Mansion and this temporary palace.
As for why you moved in?
Perhaps, it was probably to be wary of Wang Chang and his son!
Although she was well protected at that time and did not participate in some things, she also knew that whether it was her brother, the late emperor, or her husband, Wang Chang, they were the kind of people who would not even let go of their newborn children.
Pass.
Not to mention, now it seems that her good eldest son is not inferior to her husband and brother in terms of ruthlessness. She didn't learn the good things, but she learned the viciousness and ruthlessness of the two of them.
all over!
Therefore, maybe they are worried about something happening to Dongfang Xuerou and her daughter!
Furthermore, a fallen phoenix is not as good as a chicken.
In Yanbei, no one would say that they, the concubine, and the eldest princess were the same thing. How tragic would be the fate of a woman in the cold palace? Huangfu Yuwei, who was once a royal princess, naturally knew it.
If she is here, sooner or later Dongfang Xuerou and her daughter will not suffer any injustice.
"Does the father really want his son to marry the eldest princess?" Wang Yu and Wang Chang came to a side hall and asked.
Apart from Wang Chang, Wang Yu couldn't think of anyone else who might have written the gossip that spread throughout the city.
In the entire Zhendong City, only Wang Chang was so enthusiastic about this matter.
And in the entire Zhendong City, except for Wang Chang, how many people can make this news spread throughout the streets and alleys in a day or two, or even spread throughout Yanbei?
As for the few remaining people except Wang Chang, only Wang Chang could direct the movement.
"Okay, you kid, why are you doing this in front of your father? Is there any need to pretend?" Wang Chang directly stretched out his hand and patted Wang Yu hard on the back of the head.
Wang Chang, who had just been stunned just now, was not polite at all.
If it were someone else who dared to be so rude to Wang Yu, Wang Yu would let him know why the flowers are so red!
But forget it, who let this person be my father in name only?
Bear it!
"You kid, aren't you just taking advantage and still want to behave?"
"Still doing this!" Wang Chang rolled his eyes and continued.
Although from the beginning, Wang Chang knew that his son was not a person who valued love and justice.
However, in the past few years, he has still refreshed his understanding of this son.
Do you think Wang Chang would believe it if a person like him, who was ruthless and cold-blooded, said that he did not want to marry the eldest princess Huangfu Jingya?
Regardless of whether others believe it or not, at least Wang Chang would not believe it.
As for Wang Yu's so-called concern for Bai Ruolan when we first talked about it, would Wang Chang believe this nonsense?
The benefits of marrying the eldest princess Huangfu Jingya are self-evident. With his son's character, how could he give up such benefits just because of Bai Ruolan?
After all, Bai Ruolan really doesn't have the qualifications! She doesn't even have that value!
Is Bai Ruolan's background low?
This is certainly not low!
The daughter of the former Minister of Rites, her mother was from one of the six great aristocratic families. If her status is still low, how many high-status people can be found in the world?
However, although their status is neither low nor low, the foundation of their Lao Bai family is still too weak. The Lao Bai family, who was born from the grassroots, does not even have a foundation.
However, isn't this the reason why Wang Chang chose such a marriage for Wang Yu in the first place?
At that time, their old Wang family was at its peak, so Wang Chang wanted to keep a low profile for a while.
Therefore, when Wang Yu was given a finger-marriage, he chose not a daughter from a wealthy family such as the Sixth Family, but the daughter of Bai Shang, the Minister of Rites, who was the Minister of Conglong. Of course, Bai Shang at that time, let alone
He is the Minister of Rites, and the Minister of Rites was appointed because of his merits as a dragon.
After all, even if you don't choose a legitimate daughter from a top aristocratic family, you still have to find someone who can be said to be a good match.
Moreover, as Bai Shang was single-handedly promoted by the late emperor, choosing his daughter would also make the late emperor feel more at ease.
Bai Ruolan's help to Wang Yu's hegemony was indeed quite limited, far from being comparable to that of the eldest princess.
In other words, Bai Ruolan's greatest contribution to Wang Yu was actually giving birth to a son for Wang Yu.
It's cruel, but also extremely realistic.
Wang Chang really doesn't think that a person who doesn't even care about his biological parents would care about his wife in the face of a great cause?
Even in Wang Chang's view, Wang Yu was not like him in many aspects, but was exactly the same as his uncle, the late emperor.
"Father is joking, you can't abandon a wife who is worthless. How can you get the so-called advantage?" Wang Yu said with a calm face and a calm heart.
"Humph!" Wang Chang snorted coldly, but did not continue to say anything.
No matter what Wang Yu thinks about some things, Wang Chang knows very well that there are some things that he will never admit.
However, just because you don't admit it doesn't mean you can't do it, nor does it mean you can't let others do it.
Therefore, no matter what Wang Yu's attitude is now, Wang Chang must push this matter forward.
Easing the relationship with Huangfu Yuwei is actually just a small matter.
The real reason is that since the old Wang family has been led on such a path by Wang Yu, they will naturally go all out and use any means.
Since marrying the eldest princess can bring various overt and covert benefits, he will naturally continue to pursue it until this matter is completely settled.
