A Thousand Hills

Chapter 229

Xie Moru also knew about Nan'an Hou's visit, the fifth prince still told his wife, Xie Moru listened and said, "Nan'an Hou is in charge of Jiangnan, it is better than others."

"Yes." The fifth prince talked about recommending Li Yu again, and the fifth prince said, "I think what the Marquis of Nan'an meant, he seems to want to move Fufeng, and if there is no one in charge in the Fujian army, it will be impossible. But Yubiao Brother, he is also a rare general."

Xie Moru smiled slightly, "Fufeng is His Highness's confidant, and the Marquis of Nan'an naturally knows that His Highness will not agree lightly. He said this to discuss conditions with His Highness, so that Fujian can cooperate with him."

"As long as the Marquis of Nan'an can pacify Jingjiang smoothly, it is appropriate for Fujian to cooperate with the Marquis of Nan'an's strategy." The fifth prince said, "I just hope that there will be fewer battles for a few years, and the wife will be peaceful."

Xie Moru smiled, "Your Highness is benevolent."

The fifth prince said again, "I don't know when the prince will visit the south of the Yangtze River."

"This matter is not urgent. Since it is a tour, there is no reason to stay in the south of the Yangtze River. But if you can't catch up with the war, the prince will not be a white tour. Right now, I am afraid that the Marquis of Nan'an should go to the south of the Yangtze River first. The time is almost up, and the prince will go."

The fifth prince paused while holding the teacup, "That's reasonable." However, the fifth prince couldn't help it, and lightly said to his wife, "We are the royal family, and the prince is the prince, so it's not easy to compete with your subordinates, right? In fact, as long as the Marquis of Nan'an calms down Jingjiang, the crown prince will be doing a great job, so why bother to..." Why bother to fight for the merits of his subordinates?The Fifth Prince couldn't figure this out.

With the favor of the prince's recommendation, as long as the Marquis of Nan'an wins, he will be better than a princeling even if he is not a princeling.

The servants are capable, and the master is ready to reward them. Why bother to share the merits of the ministers, especially the military exploits. The merits earned in the land of life and death are distributed to the master.
Xie Moru said indifferently, "Your Highness, don't forget that Marquis Nan'an is not from the Eastern Palace. Even if Marquis Nan'an pacified Jiangnan, would he switch to the Eastern Palace? Your Highness underestimates Marquis Nan'an too much."

The fifth prince was not annoyed when he heard this, but felt that the Marquis of Nan'an had a strong character. The fifth prince said, "If you change someone, it won't be so."

Xie Moru said, "If this is not the case, I am afraid that His Majesty will not rest assured that the Marquis of Nan'an will preside over the overall situation in the south of the Yangtze River." Even Wu Guogong will be the Marquis of Nan'an's deputy, which shows that Emperor Mu Yuan trusts this cousin.

After discussing the Marquis of Nan'an, the Fifth Prince Fang and his wife told Marquis of Nan'an's guess about Bailang, Xie Moru's face darkened when he heard this, no one has mentioned such a thing!

Xie Moru sneered, "These people are also ridiculous, but if they rebelled against the past, the Fang family would have been punished a long time ago. I really don't know why they should keep it secret? I don't think Bailang needs to fight anymore. Someday he will come to the emperor to walk around. The fear of reporting your name will scare a group of people to death!"

The fifth prince persuaded his wife, "Maybe others thought we knew, so they didn't say much."

Xie Moru was even more angry, and slapped the table, "Who am I to find out! But who told me!"

The Fifth Prince hit the gun.

The fifth prince persuaded his wife for half a day before he persuaded him to be good.The next day, the fifth prince went into the palace and chatted with his father for a while. The fifth prince took the air of talking privately, implying that his father would dismiss the servants.That's what the fifth prince said, and he said mysteriously, "Yesterday, the Marquis of Nan'an told his son that the Fang family had raised a white wolf before, and that Bailang might be a pseudonym. Do you know, father?"

These words really made Emperor Mu Yuan's face ashamed. Of course the old man knew, but Emperor Mu Yuan didn't know that the fifth son didn't know.Emperor Mu Yuan let out a "huh" and said, "That's all?"

The fifth prince immediately saw that his father knew about it, and was immediately very depressed, and complained, "Father knew why he didn't tell his son. When the Marquis of Nan'an said it yesterday, his son felt like a fool."

Emperor Mu Yuan felt strange and said, "You never knew?"

"No one told the son, of course the son didn't know. The princess didn't know either. We searched Bailang in Fujian for several years, but we couldn't find anything strange." The fifth prince said, "It's all father, don't you remind me, Make a fool of me."

The fifth prince complained so much, Emperor Mu Yuan only felt it was funny, and said, "Who dares to say that my son is making a fool of himself? You child, I thought you knew."

The fifth prince had deep resentment, "My son doesn't know at all."

Emperor Mu Yuan smiled, "Okay, what the Marquis of Nan'an told you yesterday."

The fifth prince talked roughly, and Emperor Mu Yuan was very satisfied when he heard that the fifth son had recommended Li Yu to Marquis Nan'an, "Ah Yu is quite a general."

"Yes. When Cousin Yu went to Fujian, I was worried that he wouldn't be able to bear the hardships, and I was afraid that he would be injured before the war. Cousin Yu has been shot with real knives and guns, and many noble children don't have such blood. "The fifth prince also admired Li Yu quite a lot, and he became concerned about Li Yu's marriage again, and said, "I forgot to tell my father, I think my uncle is very anxious, and he still asked me about it when he was in Fujian." Cousin Yu is a good fighter in war, and he is older than me, so he should be thinking about getting married."

"Don't talk about your uncle, I'm worried about him." Emperor Mu Yuan was also worried about his nephew's marriage.This, this can't just watch my nephew be single.It's not that his nephew is not outstanding, in fact, Li Yu is the most outstanding nephew of Emperor Mu Yuan.Emperor Mu Yuan then said to his fifth son, "You are about the same age as A Yu, go see him when you have time, and ask him if there is anyone he likes. Yanmian's heir is also one of filial piety, so he should do his best for his parents. Filial piety, you should marry a wife earlier."

The fifth prince also wanted to visit Li Yu, so he agreed to the matter.

In fact, the Fifth Prince should not blame the Crown Prince for disliking him, but the Fifth Prince always grabs the people who the Crown Prince wants to win over, which makes everyone feel happy.

The appointment of the Marquis of Nan'an as the Governor of Jiangnan is settled, and the rest is the various allocation of resources under his command.Those who fail to win the battle for the governor will fight for the seat under the governor's command.Nan'anhou's hands are not slower than Donggong's. The deputy arranged by the Donggong Department for Nan'anhou is from the Wu family. Nan'anhou found Li Yu himself, and there is also the recommendation of the fifth prince.Not to mention the Wu family, even Wu Guogong, the patriarch of the Wu family, was unwilling to confront the Yong'an Houfu.

The prince doesn't mind that Li Yu is in the position, so it's just a chance to win over the Yong'an Houfu, but, why is there something about the fifth prince everywhere!What does the Jiangnan matter have to do with you? You can recommend Li Yu. Do you still know your status?
The prince was really angry.

The fifth prince is talking to Li Yu here. Li Yu has been recovering from his injuries all the time when he returned to the emperor. He used too much force during the battle and was seriously injured. Fortunately, Li Yu is young, and he was raised by a good doctor and medicinal materials. Okay seven seven eight eight.Li Yu was just about to inquire about the war in Jiangnan, and when the Fifth Prince said that he wanted him to go to Jiangnan, Li Yu said nothing, "When I was young, I admired my cousin Nanan the most. My uncle's subordinates are on errands to fight."

The fifth prince smiled, "Cousin, you have always been brave. You have no eyes for swords and guns, so you have to pay attention to your own safety."

Li Yu has been acquainted with the fifth prince for the past few years in Fujian. He said, "On the battlefield, the most taboo is to be greedy for life and fear death. If the momentum is weak, you will definitely lose. Fighting is not afraid of death. If you are afraid of death, you will not fight. I If you are afraid of death, you will not join the army."

The fifth prince knew that he had always had a temper. Of course, what Li Yu said was also reasonable, but they were relatives, and their relationship was of course no better than ordinary people, and he recommended Li Yu to the Marquis of Nan'an. The fifth prince naturally hoped that Li Yu would be safe.Then he said something on the battlefield, and Li Yu said, "It's a pity that General Liu can't move, otherwise my cousin will be like a tiger with wings added."

"Fufeng's defense of Fujian is a great achievement."

"That's true."

The two talked about the battle in the south of the Yangtze River, and the fifth prince Fang mentioned the matter of marrying a wife and having children. Li Yu looked uninterested, and the fifth prince said, "Aunt and uncle are just to comfort the elders and make a marriage decision." It's good to come down. Besides, it's good for you to leave your wife to perform filial piety at the knees of your parents while you are away from home all year round."

Li Yu said, "To marry a wife, one has to be pleasing to the eye, right?"

"There are so many ladies in the imperial capital, you don't like any of my cousins?" You can't say this casually, even if Li Yu comes from a noble background, this is really offensive.

Li Yu has been standing for this year, at this age, there is nothing bad to say, and said, "It's not too pleasing to the eye."

"Then what do you like?"

"Pleasing to the eye."

"You can't do this, you don't have a standard, why don't you be a bachelor." The fifth prince persuaded Li Yu earnestly, "Let's get married, and at the beginning we can only meet once or twice, as long as we don't hate each other. Life is slow. The feeling of slowing down is also coming out of love."

It is rare for Li Yu to gossip, so he asked the fifth prince, "How did your Highness feel before marrying the princess?"

"Feeling? I just want to treat the princess well. The princess is a regular wife and she has to be respected." The fifth prince smiled, "My mother and concubine told me these words. In fact, I was a little worried at the beginning, fearing that the princess would be too powerful and difficult to get along with." Say it. After a long time, you will know the benefits of the princess. Now that the emperor is up and down, who doesn't say that the king is blessed and married a good wife."

Li Yu thought to himself, I'm afraid His Highness thinks so.Ever since the fifth prince married Xie Moru, there have been rumors in the imperial capital that the fifth prince is afraid of guilt. Of course, this matter is just gossip.The fifth prince himself was happy, but in Li Yu's opinion, Xie Moru, the princess, did a pretty good job, even though Xie Moru's blood was always criticized, but Xie Moru had a high IQ.As the fifth prince said, since the fifth prince got married, the fifth prince began to emerge in the court, until he became the only vassal prince with military exploits today.

Compared with the fifth prince, Li Yu has a vague impression of marriage. He said, "Actually, as long as you are stable and dignified, and don't be too stupid, I have no problem."

The fifth prince's eyes lit up. Unexpectedly, Li Yu really gave the criteria for marrying a wife. The fifth prince immediately said, "Cousin, just don't worry, she must be a first-class good girl!"

The fifth prince told his father about Li Yu's criteria for marrying a wife when he turned around. Emperor Mu Yuan was very happy when he heard it.When a man marries a wife, all his wives are equal, and the wife who wants to raise the case is equal to her eyebrows. In the future, she will inherit the lineage and care for her children. Naturally, it is good to be stable and dignified.

As for "not too stupid", who would tell Li Yu, a dignified earl, to be a fool as his wife?

Li Yu already has a title. If he hadn't married Princess Changtai to Li Xuan, Emperor Mu Yuan really wanted to be his sister again.

Fortunately, the nephew has the criteria for marrying a wife, so there is no need to worry about this marriage.

Because the fifth prince persuaded Li Yu to have the idea of ​​marrying a wife, Li Xuan personally thanked the fifth prince once. Princess Wenkang often said good things about the fifth prince in the Palace of Mercy, and even Xie Moru had a gentle face and was very happy .

For the Fifth Prince's work, Empress Dowager Hu rewarded Su Concubine with a lot of things, praising Su Concubine for her good teaching skills.

You said that the eldest prince was jealous, and the fifth prince was no less bitter. He often said in private, "This time, the fifth emperor is very idle, and he is going to be a matchmaker."

The prince was also very displeased with the jumping up and down of the fifth prince. The fifth prince settled half of Li Yu's marriage.

Not to mention the crown prince and the first prince, the fifth prince had reported his two elder brothers to his father, so the two of them were already somewhat dissatisfied with the fifth prince.Concubine Liu in the palace, taking advantage of the opportunity of Emperor Mu Yuan staying overnight for the eighth prince's birthday, brought a cup of eight-treasure tea and talked with Emperor Mu Yuan. Lord Hou is going to the south of the Yangtze River on an errand, and it is said that my concubine’s nephew is also in the south, if it is useful for him, His Majesty will just send him.”

Emperor Mu Yuan was not a pillow-style emperor. Besides, Concubine Liu was not considered favored in the palace. Emperor Mu Yuan simply saw that she had given birth to a prince. For the sake of his son's good looks, Fang Jin made her a concubine.It's the pillow wind, and Concubine Liu's blowing it doesn't have any effect.Emperor Mu Yuan's face was slightly pale, and his words were also light. He said, "Just take care of serving the Queen Mother, and you don't need to worry about these things."

Concubine Liu didn't dare to say more.

In this noisy situation, the Marquis of Nan'an was ordered by the imperial court to take over the position of Governor of Jiangnan, and went to Jiangnan to take up his post. The prince and father-in-law Wu Guogong also went with Marquis of Nan'an.As for Li Yu, the Marquis of Nan'an hand-picked his deputy, and he was supposed to go with him, but was detained by Princess Wenkang for a blind date. You said that Li Yu was in a hurry, and said to his mother, "Mother, just look good."

Princess Wenkang let her son go to the south of the Yangtze River. As for the marriage, she will take care of it herself.
