Chapter 1331: King Huan returns to the capital
Just when Xiangwang Hongjing was restless because he was about to be liquidated by Yongwang Hongyu, the news that "Qingwang Hongxin was forced to leave Daliang and go to Song County to appease the people's grievances" was gradually spreading throughout the local counties of Wei.
For a while, the nobles of the Qingwang Party in the whole country trembled, and the nobles who had made up their minds to defect to King Yong's reputation before supported each other, and some nobles who had previously remained neutral were also shaken after this incident.
Without him, just because he overthrew King Yong's reputation of King Qingxin, for now, it is too powerful, and he seems to be already a popular candidate for the prince.
A few days after the incident, the news reached Shanyang in Hanoi County, northern Xinjiang.
After learning about this, Yan Wang Hongjiang smiled heartily and said "I deserve it", and then, his face showed a look of unfinished business.
In fact, in fact, King Yan Hongjiang and King Qing Hongxin's younger brother do not have much grudge, this upright and bold His Royal Highness King Yan just hates the house and Wu, because he simply hates Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, and angers King Qing Hongxin.
And after the pain passed, His Royal Highness King Yan continued to be busy with the reconstruction work of Shanyang - this change of the Great Liang had little impact on Shanyang and His Royal Highness King Yan.
After that, another day later, the news spread to Anyi in Hedong County, which is now the fiefdom of Zhao Hongxuan, the king of Huan.
Compared with Yan Wang Hongjiang, Huan Wang Zhao Hongxuan attached great importance to this news, and after learning about this, he sneered in front of his confidant Zhou Yu: "Hmph! This King Yong, who has not changed his dead nature, used such a conspiracy to trap the eldest brother back then, and now he has repeated his old tricks and kicked away King Qing...... It's ridiculous that Daliang has the king of Nanliang in charge, and he was even calculated by King Yong. β
Hearing this, staff member Zhou Yu was very surprised.
Because after thinking about this rumor repeatedly, he did doubt whether the "Jinxiang Massacre" incident could be a ghost behind King Yong's reputation, after all, this kind of conspiracy is very similar to the operation of Zhang Qigong, a poisoner, but he didn't expect His Royal Highness to be able to see through it at a glance.
However, after thinking about it carefully, Zhou Yu figured it out: most of the time, his Royal Highness dislikes Yongwang Hongyu, so as long as he senses the slightest mistake, he subconsciously thinks of Yongwang Hongyu.
With a wry smile, Zhou Yu also fulfilled his duties as a staff member, and analyzed for His Royal Highness: "If it is really designed by Zhang Qigong, then the position of "Quliang Hou Sima Song" is very questionable. β
He said this not without purpose, after all, this kind of trick had been used by him Zhou Yu a few years ago - back then, Zhou Yu obviously intended to assist King Yong Hongyu, but he pretended to defect to Zhao Hongli, who was still the prince of the East Palace at the time, and offered the latter a few "endless troubles" tricks, and successfully tricked Zhao Hongli, the former prince of the East Palace, into living a life that could not take care of himself.
Even though Zhao Hongli still had Luo Ying and other talents around him at that time, he was still succeeded by Zhou Yu, who almost succeeded in separating Zhao Hongli and Luo Ying, if it weren't for Luo Ying's brains being too dead, with the strength of a scholar, I am afraid that another person would have left Zhao Hongli a long time ago.
It's just that Zhou Yu was picked by Zhang Qigong later.
It was precisely because of his experience in this area that Zhou Yu could see at a glance that something was wrong with Quliang Hou Sima Song - the latter, nine times out of ten, was a secret chess piece planted by King Yongwang Hongyu within the Qingwang Party, waiting specifically to drag King Qing off the horse in the matter of "recovering Song County".
ββ¦β¦ As soon as King Qing fell, no one in the Liang Dynasty could resist King Yong's reputation. β
In fact, when he said this, Zhou Yu also thought of his Royal Highness's brother King Su Zhao Run, but because they were more familiar with each other, and Zhou Yu also knew that His Royal Highness had no intention of competing for the throne, so he was not counted in it.
Hearing this, Zhao Hongxuan's brows suddenly condensed.
Qingwang Hongxin left Song County, which had nothing to do with him, but after Yongwang Hongyu gained power, he would inevitably threaten the eldest prince Zhao Hongli, which made Zhao Hongxuan anxious.
He couldn't help but ask, "Zhou Yu, if I want to help the emperor's brother, what should I do?" β
Zhou Yu thought for a while and said: "Now that King Yong's reputation has become a general trend, and the eldest prince has been silent for a long time, it's time to make a comeback...... And when the time comes, someone needs to stand up and cheer you on. β
Huan Wang Zhao Hongxuan nodded, and immediately said: "You prepare, return to Daliang with me today!" β
"Yes!" Zhou Yu replied.
On the same day, Zhao Hongxuan, the king of Huan, ordered 250 elites of the Northern First Army, and took his staff Zhou Yu to "Pusaka".
After the "Five-Party Expedition to Wei", Hedong County was ravaged by war, and is currently in full swing of reconstruction, and there are big ships from Daliang going back and forth to Puban, Fenyin and other places every day.
After all, the county magistrate of Puban County is the eldest son of the "third uncle" Zhao Laiyu, "Zhao Wenlin", a member of the "Suwang Party"; And "Pusaka Wei" Wen continued, not only the original deputy general of "Hexi Shou Sima An", but also the current general of "Hedong Shou" and "Lintao Jun Wei Ji", and he can be regarded as most of the Suwang Party, and Huan King Zhao Hongxuan is in the Suwang Party, which is also a big man who is respected as the "Second Master".
Taking a boat down the river, which could have taken ten days and a half months, Zhao Hongxuan and his entourage arrived at the Bolangsha River Port north of Daliang in just four days.
Seeing that the once barren river beach has now become a huge dock port, and the officials and craftsmen of the "Construction Department" of the Ministry of Industry are taking advantage of the convenience of cement to build groups of houses on the foundation of the empty Bolang Shawu Port at a construction speed that ordinary people cannot imagine, Huan Wang Zhao Hongxuan and his staff Zhou Yu are very shocked.
It's a pity that it is too late to appreciate this river port that is about to become the premier prosperous place of Wei, Zhao Hongxuan pressed the curiosity in his heart, and returned to Daliang non-stop with Zhou Yu and the elite of the Northern First Army under his command.
In fact, strictly speaking, the prince of the outer seal is not allowed to return to the beam at will, but Zhao Hongxuan, the king of Huan, is not the official prince of the outer seal, he was only secretly out of the beam before, as for the official outer seal, at least until he and the Korean princess get married, the vertical arch hall and the court will issue official documents.
Because of this, he didn't have to pay attention to the rule that "foreign kings are not allowed to enter the beam without permission", and after revealing his identity at the city gate, he went to the palace of the eldest prince Zhao Hongli.
Of course, before going to the mansion of Zhao Hongli, the prince of Zhang, Zhao Hongxuan did not forget to ask Zongwei "Du Xuan" to take more than 20 soldiers of the Northern First Army, and take him from Anyi to bring many gifts to several sisters-in-law, and first visit his brother Zhao Hongrun in the palace of King Su.
As for his mother Shen Shufei's Ningxiang Palace in the palace, Zhao Hongxuan was more or less apprehensive, because his fiancΓ©e, the princess from South Korea, currently lives with his mother. - Although he kept saying that he didn't care, in fact, Zhao Hongxuan still had some resistance to this marriage.
First, he and the Korean princess had no emotional foundation at all, and second, Korea was the country he wanted to conquer in the future.
It's really tangled.
Instructed Zongwei "Gong Liangyi" to take more than 100 elites of the Northern First Army back to his Huan Wang's Mansion in Daliang first, and Huan Wang Zhao Hongxuan led his staff Zhou Yu and more than a dozen guards to the mansion of the eldest prince Zhao Hongli.
Bang bang β
Unlike the people of the first line of the Suwang Party who are used to calling Zhao Hongxuan "Second Master", the people of the first line of the original Donggong Party are used to calling Zhao Hongxuan "Ninth Master".
"I just returned to Daliang." Zhao Hongxuan said hello casually, and then asked, "Is the eldest brother in the mansion?" β
The doorman replied respectfully, "It's in the house." β
Nodding, there was no need to report, Zhao Hongxuan took Zhou Yu and the others straight to the depths of the mansion.
During this period, the subordinates and guards in the palace were not surprised when they saw His Royal Highness King Huan breaking into the mansion, but respectfully saluted Zhao Hongxuan, and some even greeted Zhao Hongxuan with a smile on their faces.
It can be seen from this that the status of Zhao Hongxuan, the king of Huan, in the original Donggong Party - no one treats him as an outsider.
When Zhao Hongxuan took Zhou Yu and others to the inner courtyard of the mansion, he happened to see the eldest prince Zhao Hongli and his staff Luo Ying sitting on a stone bench in the courtyard, as if they were testing the knowledge of the emperor's eldest grandson "Zhao Yonglu".
Looking at Zhao Hongli's expression, it seemed that he was not very satisfied with his son's knowledge, but Luo Ying was smiling and playing the round field on the side.
From the side, Zhao Hongli's second son "Zhao Yonghui" was looking at the reprimanded brother with a panicked look.
However, Zhao Hongli's two daughters were not worried at all, especially the youngest daughter, who was only a few years old, was grabbing Luo Ying's hair and trying to climb onto the back of this 'uncle'.
Looking at this happy scene, Zhao Hongxuan smiled bitterly and couldn't help but say: "Brother Eldest Emperor, Mr. Luo, you are so leisurely." β
"Huh?"
Zhao Hongli and Luo Ying turned their heads, and when they saw Zhao Hongxuan, Zhou Yu and others, Zhao Hongli said in surprise: "Xiao Jiu? Why are you back in the girder? β
Zhao Hongxuan smiled and didn't say anything, just glanced at his nephews Zhao Yonglu, Zhao Yonghui and his two nieces.
Zhao Hongli understood, took the hands of the two sons, reprimanded and encouraged them like a strict father, and then sent the two brothers back to the study to study, as for the two daughters, they called the maids who were waiting on the side and led them to the Li family in the main room.
As soon as he turned around and saw Zhao Hongxuan looking at him with a smile, Zhao Hongli, who was still a strict father, couldn't help but explain with some embarrassment: "Foolish brothers can be mediocre, but the two sons of Yonglu and Yonghui are quite smart...... Alas, Yonglu is fourteen years old this year, but he is not as studious as he was at the beginning, and the foolish brother is also anxious. β
According to contemporary algorithms, a man fifteen or sixteen is considered half an adult, and he can marry a concubine, but if it is a civilian, he is completely an adult at the age of sixteen, so it is no wonder that Zhao Hongli is anxious.
Hearing this, Zhao Hongxuan joked: "If you don't like to study, you may not have any interest in the future, my brother has not liked to study since he was a child." β
"Is this comparable?"
Zhao Hongli was said to be laughing and crying, after all, the object of Zhao Hongxuan's ridicule was Zhao Run, the king of Su who was known as "the one who was born to know".
After joking a few words, Zhao Hongxuan finally said what he meant: "Brother Changhuang, you have been immersed for a long time, it's time to make a comeback." β
Hearing this, Zhao Hongli's face suddenly showed a solemn look.
