A Good Landlord in the Tang Dynasty: Emperor Yuan Cong

Chapter 1050: The first to get the moon is near the water and the tower.

Wu Huaiyu and Changsun Wuji chatted for a long time and had a great time.

Uncle Guo was smiling when he left, and Wu Huaiyu was also sent outside the gate.

Many people saw this scene outside the gate of Jin Duke's Mansion.

The two only real people in the dynasty had once worshiped the prime minister, but now they are not at the center of the political hall. However, no one dared to look down upon them. Many people did not expect that these two people would have such high-profile interactions, even if they were Children and in-laws.

Fan Xuanfu was a little curious as to why Wu Huaiyu was so happy talking to Uncle Guo.
"It's the Chinese New Year, so it's normal to visit relatives and friends." Huaiyu said with a smile.

But Fan Xuanfu doesn't think so.

Wu Huaiyu drank a pot of tea with his uncle and talked about a lot of things. Apart from seeking medical advice for the queen, the main purpose was to reiterate the friendship between the two families.

Changsun Wuji and Gao Shilian would support Wu Huaiyi in continuing to secure the position of Protector of Yanran.

Of course, Wu Huaiyu will reciprocate the favor. Sun Wuyi, the fifth eldest son of the eldest son's family, General Yunhui, will serve as the deputy governor of Yanran. Some of his disciples and disciples from the eldest son's Gao family will also serve.

"Changsun Xuantong is to be the Deputy Protector of Yanran?" Fan Xuanfu couldn't help but chuckle when he heard the name, "This man is well-known in Chang'an."

"Is it appropriate for Tayun to be the deputy guardian of my brother?" Xuan Fu asked.

Lao Wuwuyi was granted the title of County Duke and General Yunhui by virtue of the Queen's sister. He has been serving in the Chang'an Forbidden Army for these years. He is a general of the Royal Forbidden Army, with a distinguished status and easy work.

Although Changsun Wuji and Wu Huaiyu, the two first-ranking ministers, are not in the center as prime ministers, Changsun Wuji's uncle Gao Shilian is the right servant, and Wu Huaiyu's brother-in-law Ma Zhou is the Zhongshu Ling. In addition, they also have many supporters in the court. of.

This eldest grandson Wuyi, whose nickname is Xuantong, is very famous in Chang'an, but not because he is very capable. On the contrary, this eldest grandson Wuyi has no real ability, but he is very talkative and is famous for his venomous tongue.

Moreover, Wu Huaiyu has been in charge of six sects before, so he knows very well that Changsun Wuyi is not just a talker on the surface. He really only has one mouth, and he can't get along in Chang'an. Just being an uncle is not enough. .

Although this fifth lao doesn't have much ability, he is quite famous in Chang'an, not only because of his poisonous tongue, but also because there are many things in the Changsun family that are inconvenient for Wuji to come forward, so he can be contacted.

He's a broker, maybe, a black-and-white figure.

The banquet at Changsun Wuji's house was very lively, but there were not many guests. They were all relatives.

Two days later, Wu Huaiyu attended the appointment on time.

Wu Huaiyu smiled, Changsun Wuyi went to Saibei just to plating gold. Although this man didn't have much ability, after all, Changsun Sheng's son and Changsun Wuji's younger brother was also an uncle.

When they join forces, no matter whether Fang Xuanling wants to recommend Zhang Jian, Wang Gui and Wei Zheng want to recommend Wei Ting, or someone else wants to recommend Wei Chigong, they are not afraid.

"By the way, my uncle invited me to have a banquet at his house in two days."

Wuyi is the fifth child, Wuji's half-brother, and a concubine.

Zhangsun Wuji actually had many brothers. For example, the eldest grandson Anye who dared to participate in the rebellion in the early days of Zhenguan, whose name was Wuxian and named Anye, was Wuji's half-brother and ranked third.

Changsun Wuji arranged for him to go to Saibei, ostensibly to ask his brother to do gold plating, but in fact he was responsible for leading the team to take care of the children of the eldest sun family.

Wu Huaiyu also smiled, he knew what his wife meant by being famous.

Changsun Wuji is Wu Huaiyu's father-in-law, and Wuyi can be considered half of him, because when the two families made the engagement, Wuyi also agreed to marry a female concubine.

Among the five brothers, Changsun Wuji, the eldest was originally quite talented and a fierce general, but unfortunately he was involved in the rebellion of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, King Yang Liang of Han Dynasty, and was killed. The second son also died early, the third son Wuxian drank too much, and Zhenguan was stupid at the beginning. was involved in a clan rebellion case.

The alliance between the two families is a strong alliance.

Although Queen Changsun was seriously ill at this time, the news had been kept secret from the outside world. Even few people in the Changsun family knew about it.

Wu Huaiyu met Wuji's uncle Gao Shilian, and also saw his clan's eldest uncle Sun Shunde. Of course his younger brother Changsun Wuyi was also there, as was Changsun Wuji's brother-in-law Zhang Cong and Zhang Wenjin.

There were not many guests, but the atmosphere at the banquet was better and less formal.

Changsun Shunde has not been seen for a long time. This man was once a military boss of the Taketoku Dynasty and a top nobleman. However, he made many mistakes during the Zhenguan Dynasty. In other words, it was the emperor's intention to find trouble. Changsun Shunde was also implicated in rebellion cases, corruption cases, and the occupation of civilian land. The case and so on were repeatedly tossed by Li Shimin many times.

Now I am completely convinced. I have no official title and no title, and I am basically no longer involved in worldly affairs.

Wu Huaiyu looked at this old man with gray beard and hair, who had already drunk himself half-drunk as soon as the banquet started. Compared with him, even if his uncle Changsun Wuji had been idle for ten years, he was still much better than his eldest Sun Shunde. Changsun Shunde is an old associate of Li Yuan, the general of the Wude Dynasty, and Duke Xue. As a result, he was convicted many times in the Zhenguan Dynasty. Now he has been dismissed from his official position and seduced his title.
The old man said hello to Wu Huaiyu and continued to sit and drink in a house. He seemed to be only interested in wine. Huaiyu saw that his hands were shaking. This was due to excessive drinking and alcohol poisoning.

Changsun Wuyi was present at the banquet, and the atmosphere was quite good. This guy could really talk when he opened his mouth.

At the banquet, someone said something, "I heard that people in Liquan County are popular in making poison. It is not far from the capital. These people should be sent to the border areas far away from the capital. How can we let these people live in the capital?" ”

Another person said, "If these people are sent to the border areas, they will also be His Majesty's subjects. Wherever these people go, they will still use poison to harm people. If the sky is high and the emperor is far away, won't they cause even more harm?"

"Then what do you think we should do with these people?" Changsun Wuyi interjected, "If you let me deal with these people who make poison, I have a particularly suitable place to put them, and I guarantee that I can not only solve the hidden dangers, but also Let them play a big role.”

"Oh, let's talk about it?"

Changsun Wuyi held up the wine glass and said with a smile, "Give them to Da Duilu of Goguryeo in Liaodong, or give them to Xue Yantuo Yinan in Mobei, and let them be killers."

One person at the table felt that this was not a good resettlement method for Changsun Wuyi. How could he give his people to the barbarians.

Changsun Wuyi stood up and looked around pretending to be surprised, "Why did it suddenly get dark?"

"Why do you say it's dark when it's broad daylight? Is Mr. Xuan Tong drunk?"

"It's not dark yet? Then why are we stopping people from walking?" Changsun Wuyi said loudly.

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then someone understood.

Chang'an used to have a curfew, so there was a saying that people were banned from walking after dark. Changsun Wuyi's decision to stop people from walking was actually aimed at the person who refuted him.

Because the man was not good-looking and had a short stature.

Breaking a person's line actually means shorting a person's line. This is Changsun Wuyi's play on Kaiyin.

The man's face was swollen and red, and he glared at Changsun Wuyi.

Wu Huaiyu asked, and it turned out that the man was called Duan Ke, and he was the younger brother of the consort Duan Lun. Duan Lun's wife was Princess Gaomi, who was married for the second time. The first marriage was to the eldest grandson Xiaozheng, and they had a daughter. However, the eldest grandson Xiaozheng died early, and the princess remarried Duan Lun.

This eldest son Xiaozheng is the nephew of eldest son Shunde and the cousin of eldest son Wuji.

Today's banquet at the Changsun family, Princess Gaomi and his wife came to the banquet together. Although the princess remarried many years ago, her daughter stayed in the Changsun family. The relationship between the princess and the Changsun family is also good. After all, Changsun Chong has now married the niece of Princess Gaomi. Princess Changle.

But no one expected Changsun Wuyi to be so rude and openly mocking others for their shortcomings. His mouth was really poisonous.

Wu Huaiyu didn't believe that Changsun Wuyi was that kind of frivolous and rude person. Duan Ke was also a brother of Duan's consort, and he was still a guest today.

It was probably because the two of them had a feud, and Changsun Wuyi deliberately mocked and insulted him.

Soon Wu Huaiyu learned the reason from Zhang Cong.
Duan Ke is the one who wants to compete with the eldest grandson Wuyi for the deputy governor of Anran. Princess Gaomi and Duan’s consort brought Duan Ke to the banquet today, hoping that the eldest grandson’s family could give him face.
Changsun Wuyi taunted her directly, which seemed rude, but it also made the princess and his wife unable to mention the matter again.

Zhang Cong and Zhang Wenjin, who are in their fifties, will also go to Saibei this time.
His position is Yunzhou Governor and Governor.
Yunzhou Dudufu is the soon-to-be-established Dudufu, which was upgraded from Yunzhou. The Dudufu has jurisdiction over the area outside the Yanmenguan Great Wall and the three prefectures of Yun, Shuo and Wei.

This was separated from the Daizhou Dudu Mansion.

This was simply specially designed for Zhang Cong.
But who makes this county prince have an extraordinary background? His grandmother Li from Longxi is the daughter of Li Hu. Li Yuan has to call her aunt, and Li Shimin wants to call her aunt. Her mother, Dou of Fufeng, was the daughter of Chen Guogong Dou Rongding and Princess Wan'an, sister of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty. This Dou family was also the family of the great ancestor Empress Li Yuan.

Zhang Cong himself also married Changsun Wuji’s sister, and then Changsun Wuji married his sister.
The three generations of the Zhang family are married to the Li family, the Dou family, and the eldest grandson family.

Even though Zhang Cong didn't seem to have much fame in the court, he was also Doctor Yinqing Guanglu, General Yunhui, Duke of Nan'an County, and General Zuo Lingjun Wei.

This kind of person is inconspicuous, but his energy is amazing.

He served as the governor and governor of Daizhou, and he was also one of the cooperation between Changsun Wuji and Wu Huaiyu. Changsun Wuyi, Zhang Wenjin, and a nephew of Gao Shilian were the leaders of the three families.

Wu Huaiyu was not worried that Zhang Wenjin's appointment as governor of Yunzhou would have an impact on Huaiyi.

Zhang Wenjin was also a son of a general, a military aristocrat of Guanlong. He had solid riding and shooting skills, not to mention he was experienced in leading troops in battles. Not only would he be able to serve as the governor of Yunzhou, he would also be able to assist Huaiyi very well.

After all, the relationship between the Governor of Yunzhou and the Protectorate of Yanran is very special.

Sometimes you have to admire those noble people,

Whenever there was any disturbance in the court, he knew it early and acted quickly. As the saying goes, the first to get the moon is the one near the water. He knew that the focus of the court would be in the north, so he quickly arranged for his subordinates to occupy good positions.

Changsun Wuji did not compete with Wu Huaiyu brothers for the position of Protector of Yanran, but chose to join forces. The eldest son's family, the Gao family, the Zhang family, and the Dou family helped the Wu brothers secure their position as the Protector of Yanran, and helped Wu Huaiyu arrange several righteousnesses for him. The disciples and old subordinates went to the frontier fortress in exchange for the Wu brothers supporting their sons to seize positions in northern Xinjiang.

What everyone joins forces to fight are those elected by the other prime ministers.

People like Zhang Wenjin did not have a suitable position and were newly promoted to the Yunzhou Governor's Office. Although the imperial court elevated the establishment of the Yunzhong Governor's Mansion, there was also a practical need to better coordinate with the new strategic plan.
But the establishment at this time was really tailor-made for Zhang Wenjin.

Zhang Wenjin was appointed as the new governor of Yunzhou and the governor of Yun Shuo Wei Sanzhou. In fact, it was equivalent to pushing Zhang Jian, the former governor of Daizhou on the front line of the frontier, to the second line.

Zhang Jian, not to mention fighting for the protection of Yanran, was the governor of the state. He was originally the governor of the five states, but now he was the governor of only Xin and Dai states.

Wu Huaiyi, Zhang Wenjin, and Changsun Wuyi will directly become the first line of focus. The rest, such as Lingzhou, Daizhou, Bingzhou, and Youzhou, can only be the second line of assistance and cooperation.
