The famous book tour starting from the Red House

Chapter 484 Returning to Taiyuan
On the day of Yue Fei's wedding, Mu Xu really came as promised. Not only did he come in person, but he also brought Chai Jin and others with him. They all presented generous gifts to the couple, which aroused the attention of the villagers for a while. Can't stop, they are all secretly guessing, where did the Yue family make this noble relative.

After a simple banquet, the two newcomers paid their respects, and at the invitation of Mr. Yao, Mu Xu and Zhou Tong stayed and the two newcomers served tea alone.

Looking at Yue Fei's wife, Mrs. Liu, Mu Xu treated everyone equally on the surface, but he was really displeased in his heart. After all, what this woman did in the original time and space made Yue Fei feel ashamed.

According to the records of Song history, Yue Fei married his first wife Liu when he was studying and practicing martial arts in his hometown Xiangzhou in his early years, and gave birth to his eldest son Yue Yun in the first year of Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty, when Yue Fei was only sixteen years old.

In the fourth year of Xuanhe, Tong Guanbing defeated Khitan, and Yue Fei, who was full of blood, volunteered to be a "dare warrior" and entered his military career.Just when Yue Fei defeated the bandits twice and just came to prominence, his father died of illness, so Yue Fei had to go back to his hometown to observe his filial piety.

In the first year of Jingkang, the Song-Jin war broke out, the army of the Northern Song Dynasty retreated steadily, and the capital Kaifeng was besieged. Kang Wang Zhao Gou issued a recruitment order to the whole country to send troops to serve the king.With the support of his mother, Yue Fei chose to join the army again, and the familiar tattooing of his mother-in-law happened at this time.

Before leaving, Yue Fei begged his wife Liu affectionately, saying that his loyalty and filial piety could not be fulfilled, and asked her to take care of his mother, two sons and one daughter. At this time, Yue Fei's eldest daughter, Yue Anniang, and second son, Yue Lei, were just born.

Mrs. Liu agreed with all her mouth. Who would have waited for Yue Fei to return to his hometown four years later before getting the news of a bolt from the blue. Not long after he joined the army and left, Mrs. Liu left the elderly and children and ran away with others.

And because of the Liu family, Yue Lei, who was just born, was lost for three years before being found by his family with great painstaking efforts.

The most infuriating thing is that shortly after finding Yue Lei, Liu also returned to Yue's house in disgrace, but this woman was born to be lonely, and after a few days, her old illness relapsed, and she chose to have a second relationship with someone. elopement.

Everyone can imagine how indignant Yue Fei was at that time.But he underestimated Liu's shamelessness. Just a few days after he returned home, Liu learned that Yue Fei had become famous and became a high-ranking official in the court.

Of course Yue Fei refused, and Liu had no choice but to leave disgruntled.Originally, when the matter developed to this point, it could be regarded as an end.

Unexpectedly, shortly after Yue Fei married his second wife, Li Wa, whom later generations are quite familiar with, he received a letter from Han Shizhong.

In the letter, Han Shizhong told Yue Fei that one of his escorts had married Yue Fei's wife Liu Shi, so he asked Yue Fei for his opinion on this matter, and asked him whether he should send someone to take his wife back.

Yue Fei had no choice but to be ashamed and angry, and told Han Shizhong the reason of the matter, and entrusted someone to transfer five hundred taels of silver to the Liu family.

But later, for some reason, this matter was stabbed to Zhao Gou, and Yue Fei was told to stop his wife from remarrying, and Zhao Gou ordered Yue Fei to be ordered.

Yue Fei had no choice but to write a letter to argue, "On the day when I was crossing the river on ice, I left my wife to serve my mother. I didn't expect my wife to remarry twice, and I hated him to the bone. I have sent someone to send five hundred guan to help him. I am afraid that the world will not know. The reason is also."

It can be said that Yue Fei was originally a victim of this incident, and his actions can be regarded as being benevolent and righteous.But thousands of years later, someone attacked him with this incident, saying that he was ruthless to his ex-wife, which is really ridiculous!
Yao Daweng and the others didn't know what Mu Xu was thinking at the moment. They were asking Mu Xu now, hoping that Yue Fei could take the Liu family to Yunzhou.

Compared with earning a top-ranking military general, this small request is of course not worth mentioning, and Mu Xu thought that according to the historical records, Yue He died in the past few years, so he simply proposed,
"If you are worried about Pengju, how about moving your family to Yunzhou? There is a lot of waste to be done there, and the most needed thing is Han family immigrants."

"This..." Yue He was a little hesitant. After all, it was hard to leave his homeland, and it was difficult for him to make up his mind to leave the place where he was born.

On the other hand, Yao's eyes lit up when he heard the news, and he couldn't help persuading her husband, "Master, I think General Mu's idea is not bad. Let's get closer, so we can help Pengju take care of the children in the future."

Yue Fei continued to persuade, "Yes, if the parents can go together, the child can also perform filial piety nearby when he returns from the military camp."

Unable to withstand the soft and hard arguments of his wife and children, and his father-in-law Yao Daweng also agreed with this matter, Yue He finally nodded in agreement.

Mu Xu was overjoyed when he saw this, and couldn't help turning his attention to Zhou Tong, wanting to abduct him to Yunzhou as a coach.

Zhou Tong was an old man, seeing Mu Xu's expression, he couldn't guess what he was thinking, so before he could speak, he shook his head and refused, "General Mu, don't look at me, I haven't had a good life for a few years, now I want to Stay in Xiangzhou to take care of your life, but don't want to travel around and work hard."

Speaking of this, he looked at Yue Fei and said with a smile, "Without Pengju and his monkeys bothering me, this old man just spends a few days of quiet life with his old wife."

Yue Fei heard the master's ominous words, he knelt down and worshiped, "Master, I am serving under Mu Shijun's tent with a few senior brothers, why don't you go with me, so that I can honor your old man."

Lin Chong and Wu Song hurriedly knelt down and persuaded Zhou Tong with Yue Fei.

But Zhou Tong was open-minded and said, "You idiot, don't act like a child like this. If you really want to pass on your skills as a teacher, you will do more things that benefit the country and the people in the future. Even if the old man goes, he will smile to himself." Jiuquan."

After finishing speaking, he was afraid that if he continued to speak, he would become more and more unbearable, so he turned to Mu Xu and said, "My registered disciples have always advanced and retreated with Pengju, the general simply put them in the account together, how about it?"

Mu Xu was startled when he heard the words, and saw that Yue Fei was also looking at him expectantly, so he nodded and said, "It's good, since ancient times, famous teachers have produced outstanding disciples, and Mr. Zhou has taught them by example, and they are all extraordinary."

For Zhang Xian, the backbone of the Yue family army, Mu Xu naturally had no reason to push him away. The only people who made him have some doubts were Wang Gui and Yao Zheng.

After all, in history, Wang Gui and Yao Zheng had betrayed Yue Fei. Although under the circumstances at that time, it was understandable for them to do so in order to protect themselves, but compared to Zhang Xian and others, they had a lack of integrity.

But Mu Xu thought about it again, Yue Fei is under his tent in this life, and he will definitely not have the same experience in his previous life, so why should he worry about something that didn't happen?
With the friendship between Wang Gui and Yue Fei, without the coercion and lure of Zhao Gou, Qin Hui and others, they have absolutely no reason to betray Yue Fei, but they don't know whether the Liu family will change.

If you think about it a little more, what he said has completely changed Yue Fei's future. Wouldn't the love between Yue Fei and Li Wa, which was sung by later generations, also be lost by the butterfly?
The more Mu Xu thought about it, the more he had a headache, so he simply stopped thinking about it, and left this kind of matter to fate. All he can do now is to give Yue Fei a stage and wait for him to display his abilities.

……

Four days after Yue Fei got married, Mu Xu personally came to bid farewell to Zhou Tong, and despite Zhou Tong's refusal, left a bag of gold and silver and a token.The gold and silver were used to subsidize his family, and the tokens were specially reserved by Mu Xu for his descendants in order to repay Zhou Tong for his kindness in passing on his merits.

It is worth mentioning that, after obtaining Mu Xu's consent, except that Wang Gui's family did not want to go to Yunzhou because they had some small businesses in Xiangzhou, Zhang Xian and Tang Huai were willing to move their families to Yunzhou. go.

If there is a fly in the ointment, it is that Yue He and his wife brought Yao Daweng's family with them. It's not that Mu Xu dislikes the Yao family, he just simply doesn't like Yue Fei's uncle Yao Gun.

He had already made up his mind, and when he arrived in Yunzhou, he thought of a way to send Yao Gun to Pei Xuan's subordinates so that Tie Kongmu could take care of him.

It is said that because there were many accompanying family members in the team, the return journey was naturally a lot slower. The team first arrived in Weizhou, then crossed Taihang, and it took nearly half a month to enter Longde Mansion.

Then Mu Xu ordered to rest for a day before heading north again, and finally arrived at Taiyuan Mansion on the third day of February.

Yan Qing, who was in charge of guarding Taiyuan, brought people to greet him at the city gate immediately after learning the news that Mu Xu and others had returned.

Among the welcoming crowd, Mu Xu unexpectedly saw Yang Zaixing.After exchanging greetings with Yan Qing, the kid immediately came over, and the stalker wanted to follow Mu Xu to the front to kill the enemy.

Thinking of the historical relationship between this kid and Yue Fei, Mu Xu simply called Yue Fei to him, and after introducing the two of them, he asked with a smile, "Pengju, I'm going to let you lead the army alone. Your lieutenant general, do you have confidence?"

Yue Fei was taken aback for a moment, and then he assured Mu Xu loudly, "Don't worry, please, Fei will definitely fulfill his mission!"

Mu Xu went on to say, "Don't talk too much. The army I gave you doesn't even have a single person. You need to recruit from scratch and build it from scratch. How about it? You still have confidence ?"

Yue Fei was young and energetic, he hesitated for a moment, and promised Mu Xu again that he would not let him down.

Mu Xu patted Yue Fei on the shoulder, and didn't say any more. He was completely at ease with Yue Fei, not to mention anything else, just talking about the ability to build an army. How many people in history can compare with Yue Fei?
As for whether it would be counterproductive, and why Yue Fei was not allowed to train under other people, Mu Xu had also considered these issues, but he still made this decision. There are two reasons for this.

First, Yue Fei is a genius general, there is no doubt about it.

In the environment of the early Southern Song Dynasty, he was able to rise against the trend and ranked among the top four generals of ZTE in the Southern Song Dynasty, which shows how capable he is.

You must know that among these four people, Yue Fei is the youngest and the fastest rising one. When he first emerged, he was only in his early twenties.

More importantly, Yue Fei came from a mud-legged background, unlike Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun, and Liu Guangshi, who all came from the Western Army system and were well-known before the Jingkang Incident.

So if you worry about Yue Fei's ability just because he is young, then there is no need to worry about him.

Second, based on Yue Fei's character, Mu Xu finally decided to let him lead the army alone.

What can Yue Fei say? If he were to be the leading general, he would be perfect.But if he is asked to do other things, especially as a deputy, or to participate in politics, it is better to put away this idea as soon as possible.

In the original time and space, this guy had contradicted his boss time and time again, even under the nose of Zhao Gou, he did such problems as welcoming back the second saint, not self-defiled, good horses, interfering with the crown prince, and disobeying orders.

This is why Zhao Gou trusted Yue Fei very much in the early stage, but when the political situation in the Southern Song Dynasty stabilized, he wanted to kill Yue Fei on trumped-up charges.

It should be noted that freezing three feet is not a one-day cold.Many of Yue Fei's actions have actually touched the bottom line of Zhao Gou, the ruler. The reason why he did not say anything was that he needed Yue Fei to prevent the Jin people from going south, so he tolerated it in every possible way.

Speaking of this, another question is involved, that is, is Yue Fei really a political novice as people say?
In Mu Xu's opinion, no, he felt that with Yue Fei's ingenuity, he would not understand politics, but that he was too upright, unwilling and disdain to beat around the bush. This can be seen from some memorials he gave to Zhao Gou. Clue.

The most representative one is the "Begging for Master Zhazi" written by Zhao Gou when he transferred Liu Guangshi's [-] troops to Yue Fei's command.

This memorial is full of hundreds of words, and the strategic conception of the Southern Song Dynasty is almost comparable to Zhuge Liang's Longzhong Opposition, which is not listed for the time being.Just to say that at the end, Yue Fei said so.

"At the same time, welcome back the Supreme Emperor, Empress Ningde's Zi Palace, and invite the family members to return to the country, so that the ancestral temple will be safe again, and all surnames will celebrate together. Your Majesty will rest easy and worry about the north. The minister's wish is over. Then beg to return to the field. , what this minister has promised himself in the past, I only hope that your majesty will forgive the madness of the minister, and the minister will not have to fight and sweat, so as to advance and stop."

You can see it, Yue Fei knew in his heart that he was suspected of being the master of the earthquake, so he even planned his escape route for Zhao, saying that his wish was to disarm and return to the field after the world was settled.

It's a pity that Zhao Gou is not the master of the Ming Dynasty after all, and he still failed Yue Fei's enthusiasm after all.

It was the above two points that made Mu Xu make a decision, ready to let Yue Fei lead the army alone, and then transfer Yang Zaixing, Zhang Xian, Wang Gui and others to his command, and let him make troubles by himself, so as not to fight with Shangguan again. Disagreement.

After talking about the arrangement for Yue Fei, Mu Xu saw that it was getting late, so he was a little bit eager to return, and was going to go back to see Li Shishi and other women, but Yan Qing whispered back,
"Master, Mrs. Qiong's father sent his son Wu Lideye the day before yesterday, and he is currently waiting at the posthouse, saying that he has something important to meet with the master."

Mu Xu frowned and asked, "Did he come here secretly, or with great fanfare?"

Yan Qing understood what Mu Xu meant, and immediately replied truthfully, "He came alone."

Mu Xu pondered in his mind for a moment, and told Yanqing, "I don't have time to see him today, so you can bring him to the house to meet me quietly tomorrow night. Remember, don't disturb others."

Yan Qing retreated knowingly, and Mu Xu saw that there was nothing serious, so he left Lehe to temporarily accommodate Wen Huanzhang, Yue Fei and other family members, while he rushed towards the mansion at full speed.
