Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 1037

In addition to being an important area for Jiankang city defense, the Fuzhoushan area is also the concentration of a large number of princes and nobles' manors.It is precisely because of this that it is difficult for ordinary civilians to approach here.

But this does not mean that the welcome scene here in Fuzhoushan is small. A large number of powerful and aristocratic families have already been waiting here, surrounded by many servant boys.They are either alone or mixed together.As soon as the boat docked slowly, they all swarmed forward, hoping to seize a position closer to Mr. Liang's conversation.

To be honest, although Shen Zhezi also had a premonition that there would be some commotion on this trip back to the capital, he did not expect it to be so noisy.His return to the capital this time is essentially part of the game with Taichung. Such a turbulent welcome scene will inevitably give him a blessing of potential energy and put him in a more favorable position in the next game.

Shen Zhezi had also learned of the news that Yu Bing was sent to Huaiyin to meet Xi Jian in secret.It stands to reason that this trip was fruitless, which means that Taicheng has fallen into a complete disadvantage on the Xuzhou issue, and must find ways to make up for it in other ways, such as getting stuck in the issue of Ai Rong's gift to Jian that he reported earlier.

Based on this logic, Taichung must hope that the quieter the movement of him returning to the capital, the more in their interest.After all, Jiankang is their home stadium, and if they wanted to, they would definitely be able to do it. For example, if they revealed Shen Zhezi's true intention for returning to the capital this time, the number of people who came to greet him would definitely be reduced by half.

Because in the absence of clear interest demands, no one is willing to place themselves in the turbulent power struggle.Why should they incur some unpredictable disasters for themselves in order to catch up with a meaningless excitement.

Or maybe the Taiwan assistants want to use this kind of din to show Shen Zhezi's dangerously powerful popularity?This is not necessary, because the danger of Shen Zhezi has been really felt by others, and even those who intend to target him should have reached a consensus, let alone emphasize his harmfulness for Shen Zhezi's rise.

Because he couldn't figure it out, Shen Zhezi was a little cautious.Although he often exchanged views on the situation with his father, after all, he lacked a lot of first-hand detailed evidence in the correspondence, and most of his energy was in the north before, so he was somewhat unfamiliar with the evolution of the Jiangdong situation.

So here in Fuzhou Mountain, Shen Zhezi also rejected many invitations from Shiliu's family, and soon moved into the Royal Garden Villa arranged nearby Taichung under the pretext of being tired of boats and cars.Although the Shen family also has a villa here, but he is currently entering the capital as a powerful feudal vassal, so there is no need to be self-willed under the circumstances that attract so much attention.

On the way, Shen Zhezi also communicated intermittently with his uncle Shen Ke who came to greet him, and agreed to return home to visit on a certain day.His itinerary this time is relatively tight, and he is expected to stay in the capital for about 20 days, and more than half of the time will be spent participating in various ceremonies.

After all, he failed to return to the capital last year due to the instability of the Northern Affairs, and he was absent from many important ceremonies.This time returning to the capital, Taichang waited for Yousi to urgently arrange some ceremonial compensations.

Although Shen Zhezi didn't care much about this, and felt that it was cumbersome and useless, but nowadays, the treatment that courtiers enjoy in various ceremonies is also a very important part of their political treatment.And this is not the problem of Shen Zhezi alone. The importance he attaches to him is also an acknowledgment of the merits of the civil and military officials in Jiangbei.

Some of the ceremonies were requested by Du He, Xie Shang and others.With such cooperation from Taichung, Shen Zhezi naturally couldn't shirk it.

After deducting the time for these etiquettes, there is still a substantive negotiation with Taiwan ministers on the issue of this trip.Therefore, Shen Zhezi really doesn't have much free time, and he can go home to visit for only two or three days at most.This is also because with the promotion of power, personal freedom will naturally be deprived and restricted.

Since Fuzhou Mountain itself is a quiet garden area, and due to the arrival of Shen Zhezi, a large number of dignitaries came here, so the defense was not too exaggerated.

What's more, Shen Zhezi is not alone. The hundreds of squad sword soldiers in his entourage are the elite selected from the tens of thousands of soldiers in Huainan, and their combat effectiveness is only stronger than the elite Longxi soldiers of the Shen family in the early years. not weak.Moreover, at Shen Zhezi's current status, he is not used to sleeping under the protection of military forces that are not under his control.

In short, although Shen Zhezi faintly felt that some aspects seemed strange, but many things seemed to be normal at present.Up to now, he needs to deal with more and more things, and some details must naturally be handed over to his subordinates.

Therefore, after Shen Zhezi moved into the Bieyuan, he talked a little bit about the current battle in Hebei with the Huainan King and other clan relatives and some Taiwanese assistants, and then sent everyone away to prepare for a rest.But among his entourage, Li Chong, Liu Na, Wen Fangzhi and others had a rare rest, and they had to rush to banquets graciously invited by Duzhong, which could be regarded as collecting information for the governor as a staff.

Shen Chong is now in the capital, but he is a full-fledged wealthy idler.Although he holds a high position like Sikong, no one forced him to go to Taicheng to report every day.More people even wished that he would disappear from Taicheng, not because of any need for power struggle, but because they simply couldn't stand his disgusting face.

Instead of working diligently and in vain, it is better to support and teach young talents for the country.Many words summed up into one meaning, that is, Lao Tzu is not in the same realm as you, and even a few Taifus imply that they are sons.

The son has a heavy hand outside, which makes people sleepless at night, while the old man shows off inside, which is annoying.This pair of father and son has already cast an indelible shadow in the minds of some ministers.

Although it is fun to show off every day, but this time when Shen Zhezi returned to the capital, Shen Chong also stayed at home honestly and did not join in the fun.Of course, he didn't just make a lookout stone dryly, but also gathered the clansmen around Gyeonggi, and waited for his son to find time to hold a family banquet to celebrate.

The welcome scene in Jiankang City this time exceeded the standard, and Shen Chong quickly noticed something strange.So he entrusted some household chores to the clansmen, and he and Qian Feng gathered in the dark room to discuss the unusualness among them.

"The matter of my son's return to the capital was widely known when it was introduced to the capital. Before that, I only thought that the great achievements and reputation should be so, and I thought it was normal. But now, it seems that there are some details that are out of the ordinary. Take it seriously. After all, this return to the capital is due to Beishi Airong's entanglement. Taichung intends to obstruct it, so Shiliu shouldn't let it know."

Shen Chong frowned deeply, with a puzzled expression.Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, his life is not too leisurely, without the disturbance of common affairs, without the burden of family business, and he can rank among the three princes just by sharing his son's meritorious deeds, which is really an anomaly in the world.

But only those who are really close to him know that in order to maintain the current stable state, Shen Chong is really worried.Although the Shen family has a strong army now, no one dares to insult them lightly, but if there is any dispute over common affairs, it must be deterred by force, this force is not stable.

The reason why Taichung has been unable to insert its hand into Huainan is that many attempts have been blocked by Shen Chong.

It is said that there is no high wall that cannot be dug down, only a hoe that cannot be used diligently. The existence of Shen Chong is a dense bush of thorns outside the high wall.

So after realizing the problem, Shen Chong immediately took care of it.

Qian Feng also seemed a little puzzled at the moment, and pondered: "There are frequent news of success in Hebei, and Yu Bing was frustrated in his northward journey, which can be said to be a big blow to Taichung. It is similar to forcibly preventing Beishi from mourning, and his intention is to use this to disturb the voice of Hebei people and make the people of Hebei suffer a lot. The chief governor is rarely calm. But the current approach is clearly not afraid of us forcing it with favors. So there must be hidden tricks in this."

"The things that Taichung fears are: firstly, the border affairs are settled, and the governor is calm; secondly, Xuzhen miscalculation, and Jiangbei has no checks and balances. Apart from these two, the rest can be temporarily postponed. But if Taichung even has this point I don’t want to try my best to stop it anymore, I’m afraid there are other dangers..."

When Shen Chong heard Qian Feng's analysis, his mood suddenly tensed up, and he couldn't help clenching his fists: "Do they dare? Don't they fear..."

At this time, Ren Qiu, the official of the princess's mansion, hurried into the room, bowed his hands to the two people on the table, and then hurriedly said in a low voice: "The northern army of Wuping Mausoleum has suddenly moved, and they have already left their dormitory and are heading towards Zhoushan. ..."

"what!"

Shen Chong was concerned, but he was confused. After hearing this, his body was shocked. The whole person jumped up from the table, stepped on the table in front of him, and said angrily: "What do you want to do? Do you really want to try my sword?" Is it beneficial?"

Speaking of this, his whole body was full of beard and hair, he grabbed the saber on the rear weapon rack with his backhand, pointed to Qian Feng and said: "I will gather my family first and go east, and Shiyi will quickly go to the south of the city to gather soldiers. Gather the rangers from the two cities and go straight to Wuyifang, if you see a few family members, capture them directly, regardless of life or death!"

Shen Chong has already prepared for such emergency measures.Even if you act in an emergency, you don't worry about being directly surrounded in the courtyard. Nearly half of Shen Gongfang is the Shen family's house, and most of them have dark warehouses with silk, firewood and other things. Once burned, large areas of the square will be destroyed. For the sea of ​​fire.There is not only the determination to die together, but also the cunning to rush out while taking advantage of the chaos.

Hearing that Shen Chong was about to launch an emergency plan in a hurry, Qian Fengbin's expression changed drastically. Qian Feng took a step forward and grabbed Shen Chong and said, "Minggong still needs to be cautious. The governor has accumulated power today, and the threat of swords and soldiers is real." Bad strategy. Even if Taichung makes another dangerous plan, the key point is not here. What's more, several Suwei families are involved, if it is used internally, it will be self-defeating!"

Shen Chong has also been immersed in conspiracy for a long time, and it is inevitable that his heartstrings will be tensed, especially this time it involves the safety of his son who he regards as more important than his life, so it is inevitable to overreact.In fact, based on his infiltration in the capital over the years, if Taichung really decides to take risks, it is impossible for him not to have the slightest foretelling in advance.

So after Qian Feng's persuasion, Shen Chong quickly calmed down, but his face was still extremely ugly, and he said angrily: "No matter what the thief's intentions are, Shiyi, you should go to the southern half of the capital to prepare for the response. In addition, Ren Jun hastened to investigate again, what is the inside story of the Northern Army's military move this time, and who did it, I will kill this beast!"
