A Good Landlord in the Tang Dynasty: Emperor Yuan Cong

Chapter 983 Gift of Three Thousand Liang

"The Zheng family will send someone tomorrow. Has anyone sent someone to greet them?"

"Need not."

At night, under the candlelight, Wu Huaiyu put his ear on his wife Fan Xuanfu's belly to listen for sound. She was already five months pregnant and her belly was slightly swollen. "I heard it. I felt this little guy kicking me with his little feet."

Xuan Fu rubbed her husband's head and said, "I felt it too. Before, I just felt like there were bubbles squirming in my belly. When you put your head on it, it felt like there were really little feet kicking me."

"Hahaha, it means that our father and daughter are connected by blood, and she recognizes my Aye."

"I'm still my mother." Fan Xuanfu was a little jealous.

The little guy was very noisy in his belly, kicking his little feet, "You should leave quickly, she is having so much fun here, and she is tormenting me all the time."

Huaiyu went to the side and lay down, "Let's talk some more."

"I really don't want to send someone to greet her tomorrow. After all, she is also a girl with the fifth surname. She even almost became a second-grade Chonghua back then." Xuan Fu said with a smile.

Xuan Fu said sternly, "Zheng Liwan is a woman who almost became one of the emperor's nine concubines, and she is also a daughter of the fifth surname. Will there really be any trouble in accepting her in tomorrow?"

Xuan Fu continued, "I found out that this Zheng's name is Liwan, and she is indeed very beautiful. She is now in her twenties, and after years of practice, her temperament has become even more otherworldly."

"I will send my brother out of the capital tomorrow morning and send him to Weiqiao. Aye and my mother-in-law will also leave the capital and return to Sanyuan tomorrow morning and send him off together."

"Well, you choose a quieter yard for her,"

"There's no need to pay tribute. Just treat me like a normal concubine. You should follow the rules, but don't bully me."

"I found out clearly that Ms. Zheng officially became a master and ordained, and obtained a monk's certificate and entered the monks' membership. However, she was actually registered in a nun temple and did not really leave home."

"Understood, I will provide for her."

On the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, I go to the nun temple to listen to sutras and offer incense. I usually practice at home.

"Didn't you say that you left home and entered a monastery and became a monk?"

"Aye, don't they stay in Chang'an for a while? Didn't they say that Sanlang and Wang Xueshi's daughter will get married after the official announcement?"

The most beautiful April day in the world,

The third child managed several major human affairs matters at once. He passed the scientific examination, married a girl with the fifth surname, selected and conferred officials through the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and made his newlywed wife pregnant with his eldest son.

Although Wu Huaiyu was a little surprised after hearing this, he didn't care too much.

"Why are you so concerned about this matter?" Huaiyu asked.

"Okay, then you go see Brother Aya and the others off tomorrow. I'm at home."

"I found out that Mrs. Zheng has not shaved off her hair."

This situation is not unusual. It is equivalent to enrolling in a famous temple and becoming a disciple of the eminent monks in the Ni Temple. Becoming a Buddhist disciple does not ordain you, and you usually practice at home.

This is really a direct step to the pinnacle of life.

"You said it was close, but it's not true. If the emperor offers to accept it, then accept it."

"The third child's wedding will be later, and Bachelor Wang has chosen it in April."

May is an evil month, so avoid it. The weather is hot in June and July, and August, September, and October are good. But Wang Xueshi wants to get married as soon as possible. After all, the third child will participate in the civil service election in October and will leave the capital to take up his post next year. Now that we are getting married in April, we still have more than half a year before taking office next year. If we act quickly, Lady Wang can still get pregnant.

"Do not worry,"

Fan Xuanfu stretched out and said, "It's getting late. You should leave quickly. Where will you sleep today?"

"Go to Sanniang's place,"

"Well, go to your Taoist nun quickly."

When she arrived at Li Qingyuan, she couldn't help but talk to Wu Huaiyu about Zheng Liwan. She also knew that Zheng had been leading the practice at home.

Perhaps Li Qing had become a monk and a Taoist nun, so he was quite sympathetic to this Zheng family.
"Zheng Liwan is also very pitiful. No matter what her status was in the past, but now that she is going to join the Wu family, Alang will be her husband from now on, and the Wu family will be her home. Tomorrow will be her first day when she enters the house. She cannot be left out in the cold. ,

We still have to send someone to Zheng's house to welcome him. We also have to invite some relatives and friends at home to have a lively banquet. "

"Once she goes out, she will have to rely on you from now on,"

There was nothing she could do about Wu Huaiyu. Thinking about it, why should a weak woman have to bear the power and political struggles in the court?

In the past, Wu Huaiyu had no control over what happened to Zheng Liwan, but now that she has entered the Wu family, she is a member of the Wu family, and she still has to take care of her own people.

Zheng Liwan is Zheng Liwan, and the Zheng family in Xingyang is the Zheng family.

"Then tell Xuanfu tomorrow to help make arrangements. I'll see Brother off first and let Aye and Aniang stay in Chang'an for a few more days. Tomorrow night, Mrs. Zheng will also serve tea to the two elders."

"Go to sleep."

Li Qing was very energetic tonight. It seemed that because of Zheng Liwan, he was reminded of the past when he was unable to fall in love, was rejected repeatedly, and finally had to leave the Zhongnan Mountains to become a nun.
She refused to sleep because she had to drag Wu Huaiyu to talk about the past.
Wu Huaiyu was a little sleepy, but couldn't hold back her energy.
Finally, he kissed her directly, a long and deep kiss. She stopped talking, but Tianlei also stirred up the earthly fire. Sanniang turned her back and threw him down directly.
After three hundred rounds of battle,

The two of them finally lost the energy to talk about the past.
Fall asleep hugging each other.

When Wu Huaiyu woke up the next day, Li Sanniang was already staring at him with bright eyes. When their eyes met,
The fire ignites dry wood,

It was early in the morning, Wu Huaiyu was sweating all over, so he had to ask someone to boil water to wipe his body. By the time he changed clothes, washed up and had breakfast, it was already late.

Hurry to Brother Yong'anfang's side.

"Alang actually got up late?" Xuanfu looked at him with a smile.

"Well, today we will send a housekeeper to the Zheng family to pick up people. We will set up more tables at home and invite some relatives and friends to have fun in the evening. You ask Sanniang and Yunniang Runniang to help with these things. I will go see Brother off first. ”

Wu Huaiyu hurriedly rode away,

When the cold wind blows in February, it feels bitingly cold. Suddenly I feel a little sore and weak in my waist and knees. Is this too frequent recently? I'm only twenty-nine years old, so I shouldn't be.

Yong'anfang Qushui County Government,

Wu Huaiyi had already packed up, and his sister-in-law, Mrs. Cheng, and her concubines were still saying their goodbyes reluctantly.

Mom and dad also packed up and went back to the countryside of Longqiao.

"Just waiting for you, let's go."

Huaiyu said hello to everyone, and then said to Lao Wudao, "Why don't you go back in a few days? Today I will take Mr. Zheng's daughter as my concubine, and I will also invite some relatives and friends to my house for a banquet in the evening. You two elders happen to be in Chang'an, so... Let Mrs. Zheng offer you a cup of tea."

After hearing this, Mrs. Wu Liu said, "That's right. It doesn't matter if we leave a few days later."

Lao Wu looked at his son, "You didn't have this attitude before."

"I thought about it yesterday, no matter what, since I have entered the Wu family, I will become one of my own from now on,"

"That's right. Let's stay for a few more days."

Lao Wu then ordered their things to be unloaded again, "Third brother, you and your second brother will send your eldest brother off together, and your mother and I will not send it off."

Wu Huaiyi and his wife Cheng explained for a while, and then the three brothers went out together.

He rode out of Chang'an City and headed west for twenty miles to Weiqiao.

The tea stall where Fan Xing and his friends were sent off years ago is still open, and business is as good as ever.
The third brother Huaiyu went in and ordered a large bowl of fu tea.

A bowl of tea and a plate of snacks only cost a penny, and you can get free refills, which is very affordable.

After drinking a bowl of tea,

Many people arrived one after another.

Huaiyu waved and they came to the tea shop.
"Brother, you must be more careful when you go to the Loop. These are the men I have arranged for you. They are all agile men with outstanding martial arts, good at riding and shooting, and have also fought on the battlefield."

In a word, Wu Huaiyu has revealed the brilliance of these people.

Isn’t he a raised dead soldier?

But they were all eagle dogs fed by Wu Huaiyu. Their original identities were different. Some were former soldiers of Guanzhong, some were bandits and horse bandits, some were beggars, some were tribal warriors, and some even had They are Turkic nobles,
It’s no longer enough to mention what happened in the past.

Now they are all under the name of Wu Huaiyu's properties. Some are guards, some are stewards, and some are clerks, but these are only superficial identities. Their true identity is a group of warriors.

A group of warriors who only obey Wu Huaiyu's orders.

When it comes to asking them to rebel, Wu Huaiyu dare not say that they will all follow, but if they are just arranged to follow his eldest brother and act as personal guards, there is no problem.

Wu Huaiyu also arranged three thousand taels of gold for his eldest brother.

This thing is worth hard currency wherever it is placed.

"What does this mean?"

"Brother, the situation on the border is quite complicated. It is always useful to have more money around you."

At the level of Wu Huaiyu, Wu Huaiyi and others, the most important thing is to secure their position. Wu Huaiyu is still a little worried about his eldest brother going to the Loop, fearing that he will not be able to control the situation.

Therefore, an elite protection team was arranged and a sum of funds was also given.

It doesn't matter if you put some money in in the early stage, as long as it can open up the situation.

If Wu Huaiyu goes to Hetao, he won't need these at all, but the eldest brother is afraid that he won't be able to cope with it.

"From now on, we brothers will be separated by six thousand miles to the south and north. If something happens, it will be difficult to take care of us. Brother, please take care of yourself."

"The Ministry of War will dispatch 10,000 garrison troops from Lingnan to your side. I will arrange for some of my own people to go in. When they come, you will also have some people you can trust. I will give priority to those who were originally in Guangzhou. , try to choose someone you are familiar with to go there,"

Wu Huaiyi was very moved after hearing this.

"Erlang, I still remember that in June of the ninth year of Wude, I went to Zhongnan Mountain to recruit Xue Wanche. I was ambushed and attacked. I only escaped with my life and fell down the cliff. Just when I was waiting to die, I met you who had been missing for nine years. ,"

"Without you, I would have been dead ten years ago. My rapid rise in recent years is actually all because of you."

"Brother, you don't need to say this. You are where you are today because of your swords and spears. We are brothers from the same mother and father. There are two martial arts families in one sentence. We naturally have to help each other."

"No matter what difficulties you encounter when you arrive in the Loop, just write to me and I will help you find a solution."

Huaiyi patted his brother on the shoulder, "I will take these three thousand taels of gold with me first, but I will definitely return it to you later."

"gone,"

"Have a nice trip, bro!"

Wu Huaiyi got on his horse, and his entourage, as well as the guards Wu Huaiyu arranged for him, also got on their horses. The cavalry crossed the Wei Bridge and headed north.

Wu Huaiyu stood at the end of the bridge and watched their retreating figures. Their march north also meant that Emperor Zhenguan officially began to attack Xue Yantuo.

Tuyuhun has just been destroyed, and he wants to fight Xue Yantuo again.

The Emperor Zhenguan, who hid in the Xiyuan Thatched Cottage all day, has become more and more proficient in his moves. Li Shimin, who has been in Zhenguan for ten years, is no longer the same person who was forced to sign an alliance under the city by Jie Li when he first came to the throne.

Today's emperor, one move after another, one step after another, has become invincible.

If God could really give Li Shimin an extra twenty or thirty years, he would definitely be able to defeat Goguryeo in history, and even unify Baekje and Silla.

It's a pity that he only lived to be fifty-two years old. Time is his strongest enemy.
