A Good Landlord in the Tang Dynasty: Emperor Yuan Cong

Chapter 348 Prince of the Eastern Palace
Out of the main hall.

The smile on Huaiyu's face disappeared.

To be honest, Li Shimin is indeed very affectionate and righteous, and he is very nostalgic for an old guy like Qiu Xinggong. After the first half of the year, he has been playing until the end of the first half of the year. It is not yet the New Year, and he has personally started to make him come back.

Knowing the current tense relationship between the Qiu and Wu families, they even want to talk about the marriage between the two families to turn the war into friendship.In the eyes of the emperor, Qiu Xinggong and Qiu Xingze brothers are his Yuan Cong confidantes, Qiu Xinggong has saved his life several times, Wu Huaiyu is also his current confidant, this is his basic situation, he does not want them to fight among themselves, after all the throne Still haven't really sat still.

That's the way it is.

But the emperor didn't take Huaiyu's position to think about his feelings.

He and the Qiu family didn't have a big conflict at first, and he was a little impulsive at the beginning, and shouldn't impeach Qiu Xinggong severely, but he didn't regret anything after doing some things.

Now that the Qiu family wants to take revenge, he is not afraid.

The emperor stepped in.

Asking Wu Huaiyu to accept Qiu Xinggong's daughter as a concubine made Huaiyu feel very disgusted, just like when Chai Shao asked him to lead the hospital town to rescue Longxi, deliberately letting him pretend to be the main force as a bait, such a dangerous thing is not clear.

Now the emperor wants his Naqiu family daughter to be his concubine.

Disgusting indeed.

But the first sentence the emperor said when they met today made Huaiyu have to be cautious. The emperor said that someone had reported him for treason.

Although he was not afraid of this matter, it was not that simple when it was said from the emperor's mouth.

Zhang Ananda appeared silently.

"What do you think?"

"Hello, Supervisor Zhang."

Zhang Anan, who was dressed in a purple robe with his hands in his sleeves, walked side by side with him with no expression on his face, "There is no need to hesitate about this matter, this is His Majesty's opening."

"Does Supervisor Zhang know about this?"

"Boy, thunder, rain and dew are all the favor of the king. Do you still want to refuse something that His Majesty can speak in person?"

"Don't be ashamed to associate with Qiu Jing."

"You took another woman as a concubine, why did you become a member of the army, the ministers of the Manchu dynasty, whose family is not married everywhere, and the relationship is intertwined, besides, this is just taking a concubine.

You have taken advantage of this matter. The Qiu family is also a well-known noble family in Guanlong. This time His Majesty personally came forward to protect you boy. You also made a mistake last year, and now you have been promoted to the Duke of Shifeng , do you know how many people are staring at you, how many people are jealous of you? "

"This time the Qiu family is going to make trouble, how many people are willing to go along with it."

"I am not afraid of the oblique shadow of my body."

"Wrong, you are still too young. You think things are so simple. If you really want to start an attack, it will be endless. What you fear most is not the open sword and the bright gun, but the dark arrow. There is no one or anything in this world. Things can really stand up to doing this.”

"Now His Majesty has come forward to let a daughter of your Naqiu family be a concubine. This matter is settled. You don't pay anything, but the Qiu family pays for a daughter. Whoever loses and who gains?"

"You kid, don't take advantage of it and act obediently. I'm afraid the Qiu family feels more disgusted than you."

Wu Huaiyu thinks about it, it seems to be the same, no matter how thin the camels of the Qiu family are, they are bigger than horses. In the past, there were five county princes and ten counties, but now they are at least one country and four county princes.The grandsons of the family are all the sons of the founding county and the fifth-rank commander of the army.

They wanted to start a war against Wu Huaiyu, but the emperor directly suppressed them, and asked them to marry a daughter to Huaiyu as a concubine. They were sentenced to lose before the war started, and they were really aggrieved.

In other words, the emperor really took good care of him.

"The Qiu family may not be convinced, and I also feel uncomfortable." Huaiyu said bluntly.

"Whether you are unconvinced or unhappy, you have to endure it. Is it really lawless? Is this still the Tang Dynasty, are you still His Majesty's courtiers?" Zhang Anan reminded him that they were all the emperor's confidant Yuan Cong, The emperor was so polite and came forward to mediate in person. Otherwise, if other people were doing business, it would be a loss for both sides in the end.

"You've been in the limelight recently, so try to keep a low profile when you return to Beijing,"

Zhang Anan took good care of Wu Huaiyu, most of them looked at his god-granddaughter Fan Xuanfu.

Although Wu Huaiyu is more favored by the emperor, but he lacks qualifications, especially since the Wu family is still from the Supreme Emperor Yuancong.

"Do you know Liu Shili?"

"Your Majesty Qiandi Yuancong, one of the nine generals of the Xuanwu Sect."

"Yes, Liu Shili was accused of rebellion last year. His Majesty questioned him. Liu Shili said that he was only a sixth rank in the Sui Dynasty. He followed the emperor as General Zuo Xiaowei and worshiped the Duke of Xiangwu County. How dare he rebel. His Majesty listened a lot. It's moving, give silk comfort.

But Luo Yi was condemned for rebellion, and Liu Shili was Luo Yi's friend and relative, so he was expelled from the people.

Up to now, more than half a year has passed, Liu Shili is still reflecting at home, he is still a commoner, but he has been looking for connections everywhere, and he still has no way out if he wants to come back. "

Wu Huaiyu couldn't help but look serious. Last year, Luo Yi's rebellion case involved many people later, such as the Supreme Emperor's Yuanmou hero Liu Zhenghui, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, General Zuo Xiaowei Liu Shili, and even Empress Changsun's elder brother, Sun Anye. wait.

Liu Shili is one of the nine generals of the Xuanwu Sect, and he has made great contributions. He also voted for Li Shimin from Wang Shichong in the early years, and his qualifications are not low.

Regardless of the emperor's Qiandi Yuancong, or the hero of the new dynasty, the status is not stable.

A young noble like Wu Huaiyu must be more careful.

"Make fewer enemies and make more friends. The Qiu family's relatives and friends are all over the government and the public. Don't offend if you can. Reconcile if you have a chance to reconcile."

Wu Huaiyu sighed.

"Qiu Xinggong is coming back?"

"Well, probably to restore his title of duke of Tianshui County, transfer to the post of General Marquis Wu, Qiu Shili will add Sanqi as a regular servant, and the number of vacant food towns will increase by [-] households."

Wu Huaiyu was very surprised, "Qiu Xinggong is going to directly restore the Duke of the County?"

"He used to be the Duke of Tianshui County. Yuan Cong, who has saved several times, as long as he doesn't commit any serious crimes, his majesty will not really punish him because of his nostalgia."

"Besides, Qiu He is not dead yet."

Mr. Qiu has gone through five dynasties and three dynasties as an important minister, so his reputation and status are very high.

"Okay, don't think about it. Although you are young, you are already a real duke. Don't you understand such a simple truth? Don't make enemies easily because of a little thing. If so, It's not a long way to go."

Although Wu Huaiyu is No. 40 nine confirmed heroes, but in today's world, Wu Huaiyu really can't be ranked in the number of high-ranking families and upstarts.

Some old clans that seem to be in decline actually still have profound backgrounds, which is also the fundamental reason why upstarts such as Cheng Yaojin, Zhang Liang, and even Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng want to marry the old noble clans.

When parting, Zhang Anan revealed a little secret. It is said that the dragon species that the queen conceived was most likely a prince.He still felt a little regretful that Wu Chengsi would not be able to honor Her Royal Highness the Princess.

Huaiyu had figured it out a long time ago, he calculated that the queen's child should be Li Zhi.

"How is His Highness the Crown Prince?" Huaiyu asked the student proactively.

"There are good and bad. Both your majesty and the empress think highly of the prince, but because Yue Wangtai returned to the clan, the emperor and queen have been closer to Yue Wangtai recently. This makes the prince seem a little unhappy. In the Chongwen Museum, there is also I often make the crown prince unhappy with Li Gang, and Kong Yingda and other teachers often tell His Majesty that the crown prince is not serious about studying, and His Majesty has reprimanded the crown prince several times."

Hearing this, Huaiyu couldn't help frowning.

He was not in the East Palace, and the teaching of the prince in the Chongwen Hall was still in charge of Li Gang, Kong Yingda and Lu Deming, the great Confucians, but Cheng Qian didn't like their way.

During this period of time, the emperor loved Li Tai, who called him his father again, and wanted to make up for it. The eldest grandson empress didn't have much energy to take care of Chengqian because of her pregnancy. This change probably made Chengqian feel even more disappointed.

The prince will soon be ten years old, and this age is indeed quite sensitive.

He can understand Chengqian's emotions at this time, but to be honest, he hasn't decided whether to have a deep relationship with the prince. There is also a layer of scruples, that is, the prince Chengqian was not regarded as the emperor in history.

Rationally, he felt that Chengqian's failure to become the prince was caused by many comprehensive factors, and it was not something that an individual could easily interfere with.

Zhang Ananda looked at him and said nothing.

After thanking Zhang Anan for his reminder, Huaiyu left the palace.

About to leave the East Palace Gate, a voice sounded behind him.

"When did Mr. Wu return to Beijing?"

Turning his head, it was the prince Chengqian.

I haven't seen him for almost a year, but this young man has grown a little taller again, with a slender body, dressed in brocade and jade belt, very handsome, a little thin, followed by a group of young men, most of them are descendants of Wang Gongxun's relatives and classmates of Chongwen Museum.

Cheng Qian crossed his hands and saluted, "Chen Wu Huaiyu pays homage to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Chengqian was very happy to see him, came forward with a smile, and even took his hand a little bit maturely, "I am alone in Chang'an, and I can often hear the bravery of my husband outside, and I feel very proud every time I hear it. , Sir is the owner of our Chongxian Pavilion, when did you return to Beijing?"

"Just arrived this afternoon, His Majesty summoned us as soon as we entered the city."

"Is this the call to go back?"

"Ah."

"Let's go, go to the Chongxian Pavilion and tell Gu and others how you put down Luo Yi, Liang Shidu and others,"

Cheng Qianfei took Huaiyu and turned around to go to the Chongxian Hall. Feeling the enthusiasm of the young people, Huaiyu had no choice but to go there and tell them about Ping Luoyi and the destruction of Liang Shidu.

Wu Huaiyu's eloquence is good, standing there is like talking about storytelling, occasionally with the taste of stand-up comedy, telling stories very exciting and ups and downs, young people have never heard of this.

Sitting there one by one, listening attentively, even fascinated, after hearing it, Chengqian took everyone to add many props, put up maps, put up statues and swords, etc., and finally even shared with his classmates Pretend to be two men and horses to simulate.

Before they knew it, they played until it was dark, and when they heard the sound of bells and drums, the palace gates were about to be locked, and everyone realized it.

"Your Highness, I'm going to sue to leave the palace, and if the palace gate is locked later, I won't be able to get out."

Chengqian was a little reluctant to part with him, and he was having a good time, "Okay, I will send Mr. Gu out of the palace, and he will come back tomorrow morning, okay?"

The other group of eldest grandsons, the Gao family, the Dugu family, the Dou family, the Li family, and other young princes and princes are still flushed with anticipation.

"It's still interesting to fight. It's too boring to listen to those old masters reading what they say every day."

"that is,"

The crown prince sent Huaiyu out of the palace, and the other students also went home, but they couldn't forget today's event, and they all envied Wu Huaiyu, even adored him.

When the prince returned to his palace, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't copied the filial piety scriptures that Li Gang punished him today, and he couldn't help but get a headache, "This old guy is over 80 years old, why is he still alive? If he is dead, he doesn't have to face him every day." up. '
