Eastern Jin Dynasty: My powerful father

Chapter 236 Huan Xi entrusts his son

The movement of a Chu army to Xiakou had a significant stabilizing effect on the situation in Jiangzhou. At least there were fewer guests in front of the Yu Mansion.

There were few pommel horses in front of the door, but Yu Yuanzhi breathed a sigh of relief.

Yuzhang, Yufu.

Yu Fangzhi was blocked inside the door by his slaves, and he roared at Yu Yuanzhi outside the house:

"I'm your brother! You can't do this to me!"

He never expected that his second brother would dare to detain him.

Yu Yuanzhi's move was really helpless. He said apologetically:

“Brother, it’s about the survival of the clan, and I can’t let you do whatever you want.

"You can live here with peace of mind during these days, and when the matter is over, I will return your freedom.

"My brother will come to apologize to my brother. I hope you will forgive me."

Yu Fang became anxious and shouted:

"Yanzhi, let me go! Huan Yuanzi has already dispatched troops to Xiakou, how can I have any more delusions!"

That's why he was able to keep a clear mind and flatly reject his brother's proposal when Yu Fangzhi encouraged himself to unite the nobles, expel Huan Chong, and take the opportunity to occupy Jiangzhou.

Even if they deliver food to the door, they are not allowed to answer the question.

Huan Wen put away Huan Chong's letter and said to Zhongshu Ling Xi Chao:

Anyone who can make their former sworn enemy bow and obey will feel great inner satisfaction.

Jingzhou, Xiangyang.

At this critical moment, Yu Yuanzhi's visit to Huan Chong was equivalent to showing his attitude to the Jiangzhou scholars that he would not be an enemy of the Huan family.

The two had a very pleasant conversation. Although they never mentioned the current situation in Jiangzhou, their meeting this time had a stabilizing effect on the situation in Jiangzhou as much as Huan Wen's reinforcement of troops in Xiakou.

After confining his brother, Yu Yuanzhi went straight to Xunyang County to pay homage to Huan Chong.

Yu Yuanzhi has always been a rational person, otherwise he would not have been able to refuse the temptation to become the lord of Jingzhou, obey his father Yu Yi's order, and hand over his inheritance to Huan Wen.

Yu Yuanzhi left quickly, ignoring the shouts behind him.

In the three-thirds of an acre of Jiangzhou, there is no other person who can pose such a great threat to the rule of the Huan family as Yu Yuanzhi.

Huan Wen nodded, skipped the matter in Jiangzhou, and turned to talk about Yin Hao:

Of course, he believed that Yu Fangzhi would not have any more whimsical ideas after the army came to the territory. However, Yu Yuan's move was not to prevent his brother from causing trouble, but to show Huan Wen, and to express his attitude to the Huan family.

Xi Chao smiled and said:

"If Duke Chu had not sent troops to Xiakou, how could Yuan Ke be so decisive in imprisoning my brother to plead guilty? Since there is a connection, it cannot be said to be unnecessary."

"Yuanke (Yu Yuanzhi) is a smart man. He knows what can be done and what cannot be done. Jingxing, I am adding more troops to Xiakou, but it is unnecessary."

However, Yu Yuanzhi just ordered his servants sternly. No one was allowed to have contact with Yu Fangzhi without his order.

When Huan Chong heard that Yu Yuanzhi was waiting outside the prefect's mansion, he immediately put aside his official duties and went to greet him.

"Since Shen Yuan entered the Shangshu Province, he has spent all his time forgetting to eat and sleep. He only wants to finish the work. It seems that I have not found the wrong person."

When Huan Wen spoke, there was a trace of undisguised pride in his words.

When Huan Wen first arrived, Yu Yuanzhi didn't dare to fight with him. With Huan Wen's current power, Yu Yuanzhi had to retreat even more, not daring to pull out his teeth.

Of course, the reason why Yin Hao willingly served Huan Wen was for himself, or in other words, he did it out of necessity.

If Yin Hao had a choice and could wash away his shame elsewhere, he would not join Chu as a minister.

Xi Chao sighed:

"The Duke of Chu invited Shen Yuan to come out of the mountain. It was a wonderful move."

When Xi Chao suggested implementing Tujuan, he was even prepared to bear the infamy of the nobles.

Unexpectedly, Huan Wen suddenly set his sights on Yin Hao, which not only allowed Xi Chao to distance himself from the relationship, but also won Huan Wen himself a reputation for tolerance and magnanimity. He also gained a general who could promote the end of the land, and at the same time shaken the hearts of Jiangdong scholars. , it can be said that it kills several birds with one stone. Huan Wen almost lost his temper.

The Chu State's land extermination work has not yet been officially launched, but Huan Xi's northern inspection tour has been launched.

Yongzhou, Chang'an.

Xie Daoyun had already said goodbye to Huan Xi in Weiyang Palace, so he did not show up. Aman was led by Wang Meng to see his father off.

Huan Xi looked at Aman and said earnestly:

"Aman, I know you are at the age where you should be playful, but you are not a child of an ordinary family. You are the heir apparent of the Liang Kingdom. You have a heavy burden on your shoulders and cannot release your natural instincts like other children of the same age.

“My father’s visit to the north may take as short as a few months, or as long as half a year before I can return.

"Yu Gong, as the prince, you should listen to the teachings and learn the principles of governing a country and being a human being.

"Yu Zi, you are the eldest son in the family. You must help your mother to discipline your brothers and sisters."

Aman, who was six years old at the time, nodded his little head, showing a serious expression that did not match his age, and responded:

"Father's teachings, children dare not forget."

Huan Xi nodded slightly and turned to Wang Meng and said:

"Sir, Aman will follow you from today on. I hope you can teach him with your words and deeds and cultivate him for me."

Aman no longer needs to continue studying in Jiaofangdian. Accordingly, Huanxi's second son Xianghaier will be taught by his mother Xie Daoyun.

As for Aman, Huan Xi had already found three teachers for him: Wang Meng, Quan Yi, and Xie An. Among them, Wang Meng was still the main teacher.

Wang Meng said seriously:

"Gong Liang asked me to teach by words and deeds, and I must examine myself three times every day. Only in this way can I live up to the kindness of knowing and meeting."

Huan Xi smiled and said:

"I don't have time to take care of Aman, so I can only ask sir to take care of him for me.

"If Aman is naughty in the future, sir, you can punish him, but just keep your peace. I will deal with him severely when I come back."

Aman on the side couldn't help but shrink his neck when he heard this. He knew the relationship between his father and Wang Meng very well, and what his father said was definitely not to scare him.

After saying that, Huan Xi said to Aman again:

"I'm not in Chang'an. You must serve Wang Lingjun as you serve me. Don't neglect me."

Aman obediently said yes, and Wang Meng was even more moved when he heard this.

Huan Xi called Quan Yi and Xie An again and asked Aman to salute Wang Meng and the other three in front of everyone.

After doing these things, Huan Xicai said to Wang Meng again:

"If military and state matters are urgent, leave them to the master. You can be dictatorial. There is no need to send him to Hetao to ask me for instructions."

This scene was a common sight in the Liang Kingdom. After all, every time Huan Xi left Chang'an, he would leave all military and political affairs in the rear to Wang Meng.

The trust between the two needs no elaboration.

Xie An has not been in Guanzhong for a long time, but he has long heard about the friendship between Huan Xi and Wang Meng.

Now, as a Liang Chen, how could I not envy Wang Meng for being so kind to him?

Xie Anxin said:

'If you die for a confidant, if I can receive such a favor, I will have no regrets even if I die. '

Huan Xi said goodbye to the people who came to see him off, and got into the carriage. Murong Ying was already waiting in the carriage.
