Cross the Sea in the Red Chamber

When he left, only the autumn wind and easy water saw him off, but when he returned, the emperor and all his officials went out of the city to welcome him. Fortune and fortune are so unpredictable and unpredictable.

Stopping the army outside, Situ Sheng only brought Jiang Yuan and a hundred cavalry to escort the vassals of King Qi and King Wei and their vassals into the city.Although there are only a hundred riders, how can those who have seen blood be the same as those who have not seen blood? These 100 people killed countless enemies during the war. .

After paying homage to His Majesty, the First Prince Situ Xu originally wanted to say a few polite words to show respect to his brothers and sisters, but in the face of so many murderous people, he swallowed his words back.He had killed people before, but that little blood couldn't compare to these people in front of him. Even King Rui Situ Sheng had beheaded more than a dozen enemies in the pursuit battle and had become addicted to beheading and performing meritorious deeds. They are comparable to veteran generals, but not Situ Xu's.

Returning to the capital with great glory, this battle with Situ Sheng and Jiang Yuan has come to an end, all the credit can't be shared by one person, no matter what, you have to leave some soup for others.Sure enough, the emperor ordered the eldest prince to lead [-] cavalry to chase King Liao, and Prince Rui let him cultivate in the name of being tired from the battle.

So what about self-cultivation, now that the court is destined to reshuffle the cards, with an army of 14 in hand, in the land of the Three Kingdoms, is Situ Sheng afraid that he won't be able to tear off the biggest and fattest piece of meat?Today is different from the past, just look at the happy faces of the four different surname kings. Who would have thought that just a year ago they would dismiss Situ Sheng and even send people to hunt him down?

The eldest prince Situ Xu failed to capture the Liao king after all, so he had to return without success. The Liao king Situ Biao was full of backbone, knowing that no matter how difficult it would be, he simply committed suicide in his palace and burned all his wives and children to death. Leave it to the First Prince.The captured Hong Hao forcibly died on a hunger strike to show that his loyal ministers would not serve two masters, which made Prince Rui and Jiang Yuan very moved.The rebellion of the San Francisco is now all over, and the next step is to discuss rewards and punishments.

All the generals under Prince Rui's command were rewarded, Zhang Dahai and Chen Youwei were promoted as deputy generals, Di Fei and Pang Liang were promoted as generals, Jiang Yuan had great merits, and his merits cannot be expressed without a title. The minister even bestowed gold and silver to the mansion.The rest of the disciples will be rewarded by officials and become Prince Rui's wings.Prince Rui already had the title of prince, so it was difficult to reward him again, so he had to reward him with a double salary, and he finally held the household department among the six departments. It is conceivable that officials will never want to touch a penny in the treasury due to personal reasons in the future!

The First Prince didn't go all out in vain, although he only got some gold and silver, he was praised by the emperor, which is considered pretty good.

Prince Tengbai tossed and tossed for a long time, but it can only be regarded as having no merits and no faults, and the merits and demerits balance out.Shi Ding and Niu Jizong who went out to ask for help got a real job as an official and won a lot of rewards.

The generals from Fujian, Jiangsu, and Zhejiang were dragged out and beheaded for public accusations of delaying the fighter plane, being afraid of the enemy, and disobeying orders, causing both the crown prince and the eldest prince to lose their troops.

The captives were put back and resettled properly by the officials, but the [-] troops that had already arrived in Gyeonggi were left behind. Ying Rui Wang Zhizuo stationed and continued to recruit soldiers and horses to replace the capital camp to guard the important area of ​​Gyeonggi. , under the control of Jiangyuan, the remaining [-] defenders stationed in Qi, Zhao, and Wei were also left to garrison there, and these three countries seemed to have become Prince Rui's territory.The reason why Prince Rui gave such a memorial was because of Jiang Yuan's words, "I'm afraid that Li Bing will be a disaster for others. The world is not quiet, so don't give up your position. As for Jin Jue, you can resign when you get it." People are harming people, so if the world is not stable, you can't give up military power. As for the title of gold and silver, it doesn't matter if you lose it.This sentence modified from Cao Cao's words is easy to understand. The central idea is Mr. Mao's sentence that political power grows out of the barrel of a gun!These soldiers and horses are held in the hands of Prince Rui for a day, and Prince Rui's line will be safe and sound, even if the mountain collapses and the throne is not with Prince Rui, at worst there will be another battle of Jingnan, isn't Zhu Di, the ancestor of Ming Dynasty in the history books, a Mingjun?

The reason why the emperor agreed to such a memorial was because he was now in a paranoid state. Except for his third son, he always felt that everyone else was harmful to him. As the emperor, don't you know who is standing behind these people?The fourth and fifth are incompetent, and the eldest prince has evil intentions. Now only the third is reliable.However, he also kept an eye out and released the crown prince, the fourth child, and the fifth child to check and balance the eldest and third child.

The myths and stories of King Rui and Jiang Yuan have already spread from Handan to the capital, and with the arrival of the captives, there is no way to stop them, because when they offered to King Qi, what they brought out was a jar of ashes, and King Wei's confession and self-blame must be recorded in the There is a sentence in the words of the history books, "The guilty officials are all dead, so the gods descended from the sky and burned the camp." What tens of thousands of people witnessed with their own eyes is not something that one or two caring people can suppress. Compared with Prince Rui and Jiang Yuan's Shenlei and Tianhuo witnesses, plus the fact that Prince Rui led 10 people to finally put down 2 San Francisco, no one would believe him now that he is an ordinary person.

Situ Sheng was quite satisfied with his cousin, so he personally crowned him and took the character, "The source is the source of the spring, and the spring water is clear, so the word Qing can be used. The source of the river runs thousands of miles, endlessly, and the word Yuan can be used. Qingyuan , Jiangyuan and Jiangqingyuan."

Jiang Yuan is very satisfied with his handwriting, and even more satisfied that he has finally crowned in advance and can be counted as an adult.After the crowning, Jiang Yuan presented the method of making gunpowder, the method of storage, and the movable type printing technique that had been promised for a long time.In addition, he was promoted to the position of the left servant of the Ministry of War, and he was finally able to come up with ways to improve the army openly.In his opinion, the Modao formation and heavy cavalry tactics of the Tang Dynasty can be put on the agenda. These two supplemented by some light cavalry are enough to make any army at this moment frightened.The northern barbarians are the best targets for sacrificial knives, and then other countries that dare to challenge in the Western Regions. In this era when the ship technology is not enough to sail, if you want to ensure the country's economic stability, you must find a suitable place to dump goods. And the West is the dumping ground in this plan.Without money, there is no way to popularize education, no way to develop medicine and technology, and no way to ensure long-term national stability. Therefore, as a long-term goal, Dajing must win the Western Regions!

There was no money in the treasury for him to toss about, but now that he has the money from San Francisco, the treasury is very rich for a while, and with Prince Rui guarding it, no one dares to do anything to the treasury. Waiting there to give birth might as well divide some and let him study this.

The more beautiful Jiang Yuan is, the more frightened those who have wronged him will be.Powerful people like Wang Ziteng and Master Shi Laohou are fine, and people like Lin Hai who have holy family members can still hold on, but this is not the case in Rongguo Mansion.Even if they keep their filial piety, San Francisco riots, the capital is besieged, and Prince Rui breaks the Three Kingdoms, as long as they are not dead, they will not be unaware of them.Jiang Yuan broke 15 with [-], defeated the Qi army, and gathered [-] soldiers and horses. He was promoted from a fifth-rank member of the military department to a second-rank general soldier and the left servant of the military department. Within a short period of time, he was promoted from the sixth rank to the second rank, from a false position to a real position, and also to a position that people look up to.

If a year ago, the Rongguo Mansion's treatment of him was no different from crushing an ant to death. Half a year ago, no one cared about a small official from the sixth rank, but now?Even Wang Ziteng, a second-rank official with military power, dared not stroke his beards. Could it be that they would dare to touch Jiang Yuan just because of a flimsy name in the Duke's Mansion? ?

Fortunately, the Holy One still wants to keep the nobles to check and balance the aristocratic family, otherwise they would have to live in fear every day?Fortunately, the Rongguo Mansion is still keeping a filial piety, and none of them have real jobs, and they are not afraid of being retaliated by Jiang Yuan's name, otherwise...

Mrs. Shi will inevitably be complained by her children and grandchildren. If she hadn't married Jia Daishan, why would the Rongguo Mansion be here?But they didn't want to think about it, if Shi Shi didn't marry Rong Guogong, where did they come from?If you don't marry Rong Guogong, do you want Shi, who has been keeping his filial piety in his twenties, to marry a small official as his successor?

Mother Jia twirled the beads in her hands fiercely, looking at her little grandson lying on her bed and smiling happily. The child had already been named Jia Baoyu. That wild boy came to the door!

But Baoyu was still young, and he couldn't quench his thirst from far away, and he thought about Jia Zhu and Jia Yuanchun who grew up by his side. Mother Jia pursed her lips and sighed, she had no choice...

Prince Rui was not very idle, back then no one cared about him, and he didn't receive a single post for a year, now that he is so powerful, someone has taken his idea.His concubine, Liu Shi, is the daughter of a junior official of the seventh rank, her parents have long since passed away, and she is just an orphan girl, so it can be said that she came from a humble background.Back then Prince Rui didn't even have a title, so naturally no one cared about it, now that Prince Rui has become very powerful, there are more people who intend to send their own daughters and sisters to their door.

For example, Concubine Zhen began to whisper in the emperor's ears, hoping to let her distant niece become Prince Rui's side concubine, Concubine Hua and Concubine Rong even did the same for the concubines below, and the officials would show their words from time to time.However, the emperor has been very suspicious recently, and immediately thought of conspiracy theories, so he frowned, stared, and forbade them all!Instead, let Prince Rui spend a few days in peace.

Situ Sheng was drinking at home, and he wrote a poem by the way, "When I went, there was no one to send off the willows, but when I came back, I was full of guests and friends. If I were still a guest back then, I would sit alone facing the moon and sigh my sorrow." Although Liu was only the daughter of the county magistrate, But he has his own rules when it comes to the outside world, and he is gentle and considerate to him, and he is also kind to his sister Yuehua.Back then when he was powerless and powerless, he only felt sorry for his wife, but now that he is powerful and powerful, how can he be so extravagant?The Liu family gave birth to his eldest son when he went to war, and he had already named him Situ Ye, so it would be nice to have a wife and son, why bother?He was used to seeing the suffering of concubines in the harem since he was a child, and he also suffered a lot of bullying and suffering. He didn't want his wife and children to suffer like this at all. It was in line with his character to push it away.

Liu Shi was pouring wine beside him, and couldn't help smiling when she heard his poem.Situ Sheng asked with a smile, "What? Did I not do well?"

Mrs. Liu accompanied him from adversity to success, not afraid of him at all, said with a smile: "If my sister hears this poem, I'm afraid she will appreciate Qingyuan's masterpiece even more."

This is obviously turning a corner and saying that his poems are mediocre, not as good as Jiang Yuan's.But Situ Sheng was not angry, he just asked, "What poem did Qingyuan write recently?"

Mrs. Liu put down the jug and recited: "Horseshoes are flying with the wind, and the yellow sand is all over the city gate. Leaving home out of Yumen, entering Hutian lightly. The evening clouds cover the waning moon, and the silver man turns the jade plate. Su'e sent you away, and He Rizhao Jun returned. ? This "Farewell" can be compared to your masterpiece?"

"Oh? It's a farewell poem. I wonder who Qingyuan sent it to?" Situ Sheng asked.

Mrs. Liu said: "I heard from Yuehua that it was given to his friend Fang Han. Fang Han was sent to the Western Regions at sunrise a while ago, and he didn't know when he would return. Qingyuan wrote a poem to send him off."

"With such poems, it's no wonder that Yuehua doesn't like my brother's works. Alas, you know that Yuehua's heart is now tied to my cousin Jiang Yuan Jiang Qingyuan. I also want them We have to get married, but what my father said... Sigh." Situ Sheng drank the wine in his glass in one gulp, and sighed.

Mrs. Liu understood what her husband was thinking, she pondered for a while and said: "Royal father didn't say that Yuehua should not be married. , this marriage will be completed."

Situ Sheng thought about it, it was indeed the case, and couldn't help cheering up, "But Qingyuan doesn't know Yuehua's mind, how can he propose marriage? This matter has to be his own willingness. If I say it first, I'm afraid I can't change it and force him I want to marry you. Jiang Qingyuan is a talented scholar of the country. He is a man of good manners and martial arts. Yuehua lives forever."

"My lord can't say it directly, but he can let others say it, such as my uncle. He is Jiang Qingyuan's real uncle. It is normal for an elder to ask about his nephew's marriage." Jiang Yuan has already recognized his ancestors, according to blood He was supposed to be called Uncle Jiang Yan, but his surname was Jiang, and although his father didn't marry him, he was considered a member of the Jiang family, so he was called Uncle.Also because of mutual recognition, the spiritual seats of Jiang Yuan's parents and grandmother were moved from Wenshu Temple to Jiang's ancestral hall for enshrining, and they can enjoy the fireworks of future generations, which is a good thing.

It has to be said that this person was chosen just right, Situ Cheng smiled, "It really is my good wife, okay, I will discuss this matter with my uncle tomorrow." As for now, he picked up Mrs. Liu, walked into the room, "How about we add another brother to Ye'er?"

Will this addition produce another second son...
