Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

"Zhe Weizheng?" Defang looked at the person in front of him who was a few years older than his eldest son. Compared with Wei Xu, Zhe Weizheng seemed more mature, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional, so he said, "It turns out that he is the son of General Zhe, lonely. I have heard the name of General Zhe for a long time, and he is indeed a good general who protects the country. I never thought that I would have the chance to meet the son of General Zhe today, what a blessing."

Hearing this, Zhewei felt that Defang and the other three were not troublemakers, so he cupped his hands and said, "My family is honored by the emperor, and it is my duty to protect my family and the country."

"I don't know where the little general is going on this trip?" Defang asked

"I came to Beijing by the emperor's order." Zhe Weizheng replied

"It turns out that the little general is on his way, but I missed the little general's itinerary." Defang turned around and said, "Get out of the way and let the little general go first."

"Wang..." Hu Yanzan paused for a moment, "Master Wang, how can we make way for them."

"What are you saying?" De Fang said, "General Zhe is a hero of his family and country. The little general was ordered to return to Beijing. We should make way."

"Master, we are..." Hu Yanzan wanted to say

"Come on." De Fang first rode the horse aside, "Please, little general."

Zhewei was clasping his hands, "Thank you, Master Wang." He waved to the soldiers, "Everyone step down, and quickly enter the city."

Watching the team pass by, Hu Yanzan asked, "My lord, how do you make way for this child?"

"General Huyan, he is the son of General Zhe. General Zhe sacrificed his life for the country's defense against the enemy. Now there are only two sons alive. The lonely king admires him very much, and it doesn't matter if he makes way."

"My lord," Concubine Di asked, "What kind of person is General Zhe?"

"Madame" Defang said, "Zhe's family is a powerful clan in the cloud. His father, Zhe Dejian, had made great military exploits for the Pingbei Han Dynasty when he was Taizu. Zhe Yuqing's brother, Zhe Yuxun, the prefect of Fuzhou, had three visits to Emperor Taizu. , died of illness in the second year of Taiping Xingguo. The envoy of Yuqing Youbujieyuan took over as the prefect at the age of 19. When His Majesty conquered Hedong, Yuqing and Yin Xian were ordered to lead troops to attack Lanzhou, defeating the Kelan Army, and Conquered Lanzhou, moved to Chongyi envoy with meritorious service, later served as Fuzhou observation envoy, and worshiped Yongan Army Jiedu envoy the year before last. Last year, Liao recruit envoy Han Dewei contacted Dangxiang and Lelang clans, and led tens of thousands of riders from Zhenwu Koulue On the border of our Great Song Dynasty, when Zhe Yuqing waited for him to return to the north, he personally led the cavalry to intercept and defeated the Liao army in Zihehan. At this time, the Lelang tribes turned against each other and killed the Liao general Turkic profit. Han Dewei only escaped with his body. Zhe Yuqing suddenly fell ill due to overwork in military training. The Liao army got the news and led an army to invade again, wanting to avenge Zi Hehan. Zhe Yuqing supervised the battle while sick, and the Liao army did not dare to invade. Zhe Yuqing When he was critically ill, his mother sent someone to call him back. Zhe Yuqing said: "The world has received the grace of the country, and the border bandits have not been destroyed. It is also the crime of Yuqing. Now facing the enemy, abandoning soldiers and soldiers is not allowed. Death in the army is part of it. Mrs. Bai, don't miss me. Loyalty and filial piety are both! After the speech, I burst into tears. Regrettably, Yu Qing died of illness the next day at the age of 38. Your Majesty bestowed her as a servant, and used her son Zhe Weizheng as a The envoy of Luoyuan knows the affairs of the state."

Concubine Di nodded when she heard this, "It turns out that the Zhe family is a great hero of our Song Dynasty, and the young man just now is Zhe Weizheng, but why did your majesty call him to Beijing at this time?"

Defang shook her head, "I don't know, I'll find out by tomorrow morning, let's go back to the city."

The three of them rode horses and followed Zhewei into the city, and then went straight back to the palace, Defang said, "General Huyan, let's have dinner in the mansion tonight, look at these wild game, and taste the chef's skills of Guwangfu."

"Okay! Hahaha, I have to drink a few more glasses." Hu Yanzan laughed

Defang nodded, turned around and said, "Ma'am, are you tired? Go change your clothes and have a rest first."

"Okay." Concubine Di handed the reins to De Fang, "The concubine should go back to the house first, General Hu Yan, I will leave for a while, and we will talk later in the hall."

"Yes, ma'am please." Hu Yanzan cupped his hands and said

After Concubine Di left, Hu Yanzan said, "My lord is really lucky to have a lady as my concubine."

"Envy the lonely king," Defang said with a smile

"How dare the old minister be envious?" Hu Yanzan patted his horse and said with a smile, "I'm afraid that the prince's words in the mansion won't count."

"What did you say!" Defang looked at Huyanzan, "Huyanzan, how dare you laugh at the lonely king!"

"Don't dare, dare not" Hu Yanzan cupped his hands and said, "What the old minister means is that the empress is a hero among women, not only capable of literature and martial arts, but also virtuous and virtuous, and the prince is a wife-loving person, which is called respecting each other like a guest."

"That's about the same." Defang raised an eyebrow, "I said General Huyan, I didn't expect you to be quite good at talking now."

"I've been with the prince for a long time, and the old minister doesn't talk rough anymore, hahaha" Hu Yanzan said

"Then come to the mansion often, and let the lonely king teach you how to speak." Defang smiled and said, "Let's go, have a drink first."

Defang asked people to move the prey into the dining room for disposal, while he and Hu Yanzan went to rest in the living room.
