Aspiring to the Ten Kingdoms

Chapter 319

Yanhe Hall.

Empress Fu is all in plain clothes and is located in the hall.

Luo Youdu, Wang Pu, Wei Renpu, Han Tong, Han Lingkun and others all gathered at His Royal Highness.

Looking at Luo Youdu, His Highness, Empress Fu looked a little complicated, and said: "Zhao thief rebelled, causing turmoil in the government and the public, the emperor's heir was separated and disappeared, and my palace was almost killed. It was only with the protection of loyal servants that I survived. Fortunately, There is still such a loyal person as Luo Qing in my Great Zhou Dynasty, who turned the tide, punished the thieves, and stabilized the court. Luo Qing put down Youyan, wiped out the rebels, and made great contributions. He was granted the title of Duke of Zhen and added the rank of Hussar General to show Award."

Luo Youdu bowed and said, "Thank you saint for the reward."

Empress Fu continued: "I think there are three things to do now. First, stabilize the Quartet. Your Majesty will die, and the state of the Zhou Dynasty will not be chaotic. It needs to be revised and the princes of the Quartet will send envoys to see them. The envoys from all over the country should also go to Beijing to report on their duties. "

"Secondly, your Majesty's national funeral should be handled as soon as possible in accordance with Taizu's frugal style."

"Thirdly, if the prince is lost, an announcement should be issued and the four directions should be sent to let the officials of the four directions pay attention to the search."

"These three matters are the most important and urgent."

Empress Fu gave orders in an orderly manner.

People naturally have no objection.

Walking out of the Hall of Yanhe, Luo Youdu stretched his waist greatly, and said with a smile: "The sage is back. I can go home with peace of mind. I haven't seen Chou Chou for a long time. I miss you so much. Everyone, take a step first..."

Luo Youdu left quickly.

Han Lingkun pushed Han Tong and said, "Want to drink?"

Before the two, one was Marshal and the other was Marshal, and they fought openly and secretly for a while.

Now Han Lingkun is the inspector in front of the palace, and Han Tong is actually the head of the guards and military division, and the two have equal status.

Han Tong thought for a while, nodded and said, "Let's go."

Wang Pu and Wei Renpu were at the end.

Wei Renpu sighed worriedly and said, "I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse when the sage returns."

Wang Pu said softly: "The two powers are confronting each other, so let's go farther away."

Two strong?

What kind of two strong?

Wei Renpu looked at Wang Pu strangely and said, "Brother Qiwu, are you serious?"

Wang Pu shrugged and said nothing.

Luo Youdu thought of his wife and children whom he had not seen for a long time, and he felt like returning home.

Under the escort of Hu Yanzan and other personal guards, Luo Youdu returned to his long-lost home.

The servants at home were tidying up the house. Because Luo Youdu's family members could not be caught, Zhao Kuangyin's subordinates vandalized Luo's house as if venting their anger, and even took away some belongings.

Luo Youdu went straight to the backyard.

The backyard has been tidied up, and Fu Qing'er is shaking the rattle, giggling ugly.

Mrs. Guo Guo was quite worried, frowning.

Seeing Luo Youdu entering, Fu Qing'er greeted her happily.

Luo Youdu shouted from a distance: "Come on, let me see the ugly baby!"

Fu Qing'er smiled and handed Chou Chou out.

Luo Youdu wiped his body with both hands, and hurriedly took Chouchou over.

The little guy couldn't take his eyes off the rattle. Seeing that the rattle was getting farther and farther away from him, he yelled and wanted to reach for it.

In the eyes of this little guy, his dear father is obviously not more attractive than a rattle.

Luo Youdu looked at Chou Chou in his arms, the little guy had already grown up, his white and tender face was chubby, and he had a pair of big jewel-like eyes, very cute.

The baby in the swaddle was basically the same, but Chou Chou's eyes gave him at least [-] points.

Fu Qing'er shook the rattle lightly, Chou Chou heard a familiar voice, watched the two small hammers shaking from side to side, and laughed "giggle" again.

Luo Youdu saw that his father was very relieved, and he was in a good mood.

If it wasn't for holding his son, he would have the urge to dance and dance.

Luo Youdu smiled at his wife: "Thank you Madam!"

Fu Qing'er returned a sweet smile.

Suddenly the little guy burst into tears "Wow".

Luo Youdu felt his body was wet, and looked down, what a guy.

It's summer now, and there are very few ugly clothes.

The diaper couldn't stop the little guy from rushing, so he directly used a dip to greet his father's return.

Fu Qing'er couldn't help but handed Chouchou to her mother, took off Luo Youdu's coat and said, "Go wash it! Water has been prepared for you..."

Luo Youdu walked into the bathroom with a headache.

After washing away his exhaustion, Luo Youdu walked out of the bathroom quickly.

During this long military career, there are old men on the left and right, and it is rare to go home, and it is inevitable to find his wife to be tender and tender.

When I came to the courtyard, I saw Mrs. Guo Guo waiting in the courtyard.

Luo Youdu calmed down, and quickly stepped forward to salute, "My son-in-law has seen his mother-in-law."

Mrs. Guo Guo said with a smile: "Just now the king sent the news that he has gone back. I will give you a big gift at that time. If the aunt causes any trouble in the palace, I hope my son-in-law will take care of it."

Luo Youdu bowed and said: "Mother-in-law is serious, and the saint has already helped a lot by returning to the palace. As for the other things, it is a matter of course, and my son-in-law can understand."

The appearance of Empress Fu really helped Luo Youdu a lot.

If Empress Fu never shows up, Da Zhou will be leaderless.

At this time, a very embarrassing situation will appear. The Guo family is really empty.

Luo Youdu forcibly went up, even if the prestige is enough, there will be a lot of troubles.

It is not only necessary to subdue the surrounding princes, but also to appease the Quartet Jiedushi, which may lead to military disasters, and also to deal with internal unstable factors.

Empress Fu's appearance at this moment can save a lot of trouble.

With more buffering time, Luo Youdu can stabilize the civil servants and generals in the temple while tidying up the forbidden army.

As for Empress Fu's intentions, it has already been revealed since she appointed him Duke of Zhen and General of Hussars.

This directly goes to the title of duke, plus a rank of hussar general, which seems to be a very high honor.

But what Luo Youdu needs now is a false name?
No, what he needs is not a prince, nor a first-rank general, but the simple three words "Pingzhangshi".

Pingzhangshi is the prime minister.

Empress Fu raised him high on the surface, but avoided the ownership of the power.

This also shows that Empress Fu is smart, but also has a little petty air of fear.

Empress Fu did not dare to give Luo Youdu the power, fearing that if he was caught by the military power, he would have no power to recover.

But I don’t want to think about the current situation, without Luo Youdu’s nod, would Wang Pu’s and Wei Renpu’s decrees be carried out?
The result is the same whether you give or not.

The power of Da Zhou is already in Luo Youdu's hands.

At this point in the matter, there is no room for maneuver.

Fu Yanqing, an old warlord, has an extremely vicious vision.

It's not that Luo Youdu can't tolerate Empress Fu and Guo Zongxun, they are Guo Rong's wife and children after all.

But they can't stand in the way, and now the general trend of unification is in front of us.

How can there be any reason to let this great situation not promote unification as soon as possible, and accompany the little emperor to grow up?

If you don't hold the authority in your hands, how can you fight against the outside world with peace of mind?
This is a very real problem, which cannot be avoided and cannot be solved.

Luo Youdu can understand Queen Fu's reluctance to give power to the prime minister, but now he can't waste ten years of his best time for Guo Zongxun.

The lessons learned from the Song Dynasty are vivid.

Mrs. Guo Guo said with a smile: "The son-in-law is really open-minded, and he is a man who can accomplish great things."

Luo Youdu smiled and said, "Thank you mother-in-law for the compliment."

After bidding farewell to Mrs. Guo Guo, Luo Youdu returned to the bedroom.

Chou Chou is gone, and Fu Qing'er is arranging her hair in front of the dressing table.

Luo Youdu put his arms around his wife from behind, and said with a smile, "Madam is beautiful even without dressing up."

Fu Qing'er glanced shyly, let Luo Youdu pick her up, and walked towards the bed.

Because of the national mourning, the court was suspended for three days.

Luo Youdu didn't leave the house for three days, and stayed at home with Fu Qing'er and Chou Chou, enjoying family happiness, doing some shameful things from time to time, and living a very nourishing life.

Luo Youdu is free here, but Empress Fu is not so relaxed.

She passed on to the Quartet Jiedu envoys, and the paperwork for reporting to Beijing has been issued.

Except for those Jiedu envoys who were weakened by Guo Rong and had no real power expressed their willingness to return to Beijing, those who really held real power fell ill as if they had negotiated.

For example, Li Chongjin, the Jiedu envoy of the Jiangning Army, Li Chongjin, the Jiedu envoy of Qinzhou, deployed along the west border, Wang Jing, the Duke of Baoguo, Li Jun, the Jiedu envoy of Zhaoyi, Wang Renhao, the Jiedu envoy of Xingzhou, and the inspector of Luzhou. Taiwei Zhao Kuangzan and so on...

Most of them were sick and indicated that they could not come.

Some of these generals who are outside have no brains, but they all recruit their own staff.

The situation in central Beijing has become clear, without Luo Youdu's words, how could they dare to come based on Queen Fu's summoning?

Luo Youdu asked them to come, no matter whether they were convinced or not, they knew that Luo Youdu would not risk the world's dissatisfaction by doing something when they came to Beijing to report their duties.

Luo Youdu didn't speak, they came by themselves.

If Empress Fu indiscriminately gave them clothes and belts, they would have no chance to go back.

So we are all sitting and watching the situation.

This is the time Luo Youdu needs.

Moreover, Luo Youdu was not above the temple, and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were obviously flustered.

They didn't know whether they should listen to Queen Fu or not.

What if Luo Youdu is annoyed after hearing this?
On the fourth day after the national funeral, Empress Fu finally understood why her father was not optimistic about her.

Luo Youdu did not provoke him, nor did he do anything, let alone make things difficult.

It's just that he is not a prime minister, so he is not qualified to appear in the temple to discuss matters.

But when he wasn't there, the others didn't dare to move.

No one believed that Empress Fu could bear all this.

When she was away, Luo Youdu stabilized the situation, but when she appeared, it caused the court to lose control.

Privy Council.

Luo Youdu was dealing with the affairs of the imperial army, and was summoned by Queen Fu.

Zhao Pu smiled at the side: "Master, why not deal with the matter in hand before going."

He was a little angry. According to common sense, he had made great contributions this time and would be promoted.

It's that Empress Fu didn't give Luo Youdu the power, he is still the Jiedu envoy, and he has a little dissatisfaction with Empress Fu in his heart.

Luo Youdu pointed to the two days' work on the table, and said with a slight smile, "After you have dealt with these, when will you finish it, and when will you leave the gate."

He said and strode away directly.

This guy has been a little flustered lately.

He needs to be taught a lesson.
