The day before the Double Ninth Festival, Shen Zhezi greeted He Xi who returned to the capital outside the capital.

He Yu returned to the capital this time to serve as a servant, and as an absolute close servant, the meaning of the servant is different in different eras. If it is an era of imperial power, Shizhong, as his cronies, can directly participate in political affairs and take on the role of part of the Taiwan auxiliary. For example, Wen Qiao in the period of the first emperor directly participated in politics as a servant, and cooperated with Yu Liang and others to overhead Wang Dao.

However, in the early years of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, due to the drastic changes in the situation and the fact that the young man was in charge of the country, the changes of officials were also extremely frequent. So at the moment, the service is more similar to a kind of honor, a threshold, and crossing it means entering the ranks of important ministers, entering the Taiwan Auxiliary, and leaving the Fang Uncle.

He Xun, the father of He Yu, is also ranked among the hundred and six Peng of the Yuan Emperor, who has served as the commander of the Zhongshu Order, and has also served as the Taichang Sili Jiuqing, and was posthumously made a commonplace. And He Yu himself, although he has not worked in Taicheng for a long time, he is also a prominent resume in the state and county. But if you say that you are directly serving in the middle of the service, it is actually a little reluctant.

This is also due to Wang Bin's untimely struggle for the internal history of the auditor, in order to have an explanation to the auditor, Taichung has to express something to the auditor, so the benefits naturally fall on He Yu's head. After all, the Yu family and the He family have a vendetta, and Yu Tan is now a senior member of Taifu, so this arrangement can be regarded as two bowls of water.

Shen Mu followed Shen Zhezi out of the city to greet him, and it could be seen that he had dressed up seriously today, with a bright appearance, neat appearance, and even a short beard under his chin. After all, He Yu is his father-in-law's home, and this time his wife and children have also entered the capital.

"Qingque, I'll see your sister-in-law later, but remember to say a few words for me......"

Along the way, Shen Mu was chanting these words, and the merry array he put forward in the capital was not small, and naturally it would inevitably spread to the township. Although the lady of his family is also gentle, Shen Mu is really a little too much, if there is no resentment, even the status of the eldest lady in the family will not be stable.

Shen Zhezi just dealt with it casually, but he didn't bother to deal with Shen Mu, and so far those hundreds of concubines are still raised in his manor, and he can be regarded as having done his best, so he will not be stupid enough to come to Shen Mu Niangzi and suffer a count.

Outside the Longdu Wharf, Shen Zhezi and they had not arrived for a long time, and He Yu and his party also arrived. Shen Zhezi and Shen Mu, Shen Yun and other brothers boarded the boat to meet He Yu first, He Yu quickly stepped forward to help Shen Zhezi up, with a smile on his face, but he just glanced at Shen Mu coldly, pointed to the cabin behind him and said: "Your father-in-law and wife are in the cabin, go and greet yourself." ”

Shen Mu laughed, but he also understood that he would not be blinded by others, because Shen Zhezi was pulled by He Yu, turned his head and grabbed Shen Yun's wrist and walked to the cabin, with a generous gesture of righteousness.

Although the boat was tiring all the way, He Yu was full of spirit, standing on the bow of the ship and looking around at the surrounding scenery, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I thought that the new wasteland in the capital should be full of depression and dilapidation, but what I see today is thriving and orderly." Wei Zhou, you widely introduce villagers to serve the country, so that my Jiangdong is completely ruined, and it is a great good for the country and the township! ”

In addition to the boats and boats passing back and forth, there are still rows of warehouses on both sides of the waterway, the original tidal flats have been repaired into open flat land, and there are a large number of bricks, tiles, wood and stone workshops between the mountains.

It is also regarded as a gathering point of Wu people near Jiankang, and what you hear is more vernacular, and what you see is mostly Wu people's industry, and it is even called Xiaoyuhang. Since the rise of Zhongxing, and even since the unification of Wu after the death of Wu, it is the first time that Wu people have joined the mainstream of the current situation so enthusiastically and on a large scale.

Shen Zhezi can be said to have contributed to the current situation, and there is no lack of pride when he hears He Yu's emotion, it is true that Wu people have no shortage of narrow-mindedness and infighting, but that is a long-standing habit, it does not mean that they were born like this, or that their nature is inferior to others. As long as you can guide well, you can also stimulate the open side and initiative of the Wu people's character.

The confrontation between the north and the south, or the future Northern Expedition, is bound to be a protracted national war, and no matter how many people are united, it cannot be overstated. If a certain part of the people are showing a lot of inferiority at the moment, then they should be ignored or eliminated, which is a vindictiveness, and it is not the attitude that should be done at all.

"The north and the south are co-cast, and the tripod is successful. If it is biased, the lack of the moon is not beautiful. Although the people of our country do not perform their positions, they are deeply based on the foundation of economic use, the overseas Chinese are the table, the Wu people are substantial, the Jiangdong is self-consolidated, and the hope is promising! ”

Shen Zhezi walked to He Yu's side, stood side by side, and said with the same smile.

When He Yu heard this, he laughed and said: "No wonder your father has to think deeply about Lin'er and the tiger in his hometown, and when it comes to forging ahead, we virtual elders are really inferior to you, a young man!" ”

Shen Zhezi didn't talk about the ambition of Beiwang in the past, because even if he said it, it was useless, and others wouldn't understand it at all.

For a long time, the contempt of northerners for southerners is not just as simple as regional discrimination, it can even be said to be a kind of political suppression and persecution. The so-called three people become tigers and have participated in murder, when everyone says that Wu people are not good, and even becomes a norm, over time, it will make Wu people themselves have an inferiority complex and lose their enterprising spirit.

Shen Zhezi's father Shen Chong is a typical example, even if he is unruly and rebellious again and again, his biggest pursuit is to divide one side, and he has never thought of stealing the unification and claiming to be self-proclaimed. This process is like boiling an eagle, and no matter how unruly the folk customs are, they have also been domesticated into a prestige that can only be used in the countryside.

When it comes to the Northern Expedition, it is not advisable to directly say that the Wu people are unusable, and to despise them morally, and the causes of the Wu people's psychology are not considered at all. And this kind of psychology is not impossible to break, when the Wu people have grown to the level of the Shen family, if they want to go further, there is only one way in front of them, and that is to make contributions to the Northern Expedition!

Therefore, Shen Zhezi is now talking about the Northern Expedition, at least in the political circle around his family's door, it has become an increasingly clear choice.

After He Yu sighed, he said to Shen Zhezi again: "This time I came to the north, before leaving, your father told you that Wei Zhou has great ambitions and long journeys, and you must not be bound by bad rules. No matter where you look, Wu Zhong's fathers and elders and material use are your strongest backing, and you can move quickly, without hesitation! ”

Hearing He Yu relay his father's words, Shen Zhezi was also full of thoughts in his heart, and turned to face Wu Zhong and bowed deeply.

Dad, to be honest, his moral literacy is not high, but he is a typical Wu people's poor mentality in this era, and he is a typical chaotic minister and thief in any era. But only for Shen Zhezi's trust and support, that kind of unreserved giving and tolerance, is Shen Zhezi's greatest reliance in this world!

Shen Chong's support for his son is not empty words, the infusion of money and grain has been continuous and uninterrupted, and He Yu's trip to the north this time has also brought a large number of usable talents that Shen Chong has discovered in the southeast in recent years. For example, his cousin Wei Yi of the Wei family, and many young generals who emerged in the Dongyang Army, can be described as both civil and military.

He Yu introduced these young Wuzhong junyan who accompanied him to Shen Zhezi one by one, and Shen Zhezi was also extremely happy about the arrival of these people. In addition to increasing the political cohesion of his own side, he is also setting out to build a military mobilization system that is controlled by himself and independent of the Taiwan system.

If these young people can be recognized by their fathers, then it means that they are at least trustworthy. And what Shen Zhezi has to do is to gradually place people in the official offices of various palaces and temples according to their respective abilities. Individually, they may be just a lowly current, but once strung together, they can become an efficient mobilization organization.

The group stayed by the river for a while, and arranged some of the attachés in the idle manor near the Shen family on the left, while Shen Zhezi accompanied He Yu into the capital.

Shen Mu's kid didn't know what to talk about with his father-in-law and his mother-in-law, and after getting off the boat, he was stupid, and personally drove his family members to follow Shen Zhezi and them.

However, Shen Yun's kid came to report to Shen Zhezi with a mysterious face: "The father-in-law of the He family just complains about the second brother's despicable and irritable position, so there are too many prodigal ......."

Shen Zhezi smiled when he heard this report, complaining and complaining, sure enough, it is still a family, and Shen Mu, the father-in-law, is asking for an official for his son-in-law.

There's not much to say about that. The reason why the family pressed Shen Mu on the construction site in the capital for most of the year was to polish his character, and at the same time to pave the way for future use, and to promote and suppress first.

In fact, for Shen Mu's next appointment, Shen Zhezi has already thought about it, temporarily guarding Stone City to raise the rank, and the next step is to go to Yuzhou in Yuyi, to make a front station for Shen Zhezi, and to occupy a position for Shen Zhezi with Du He in Jiangbei.

In the next few days, Shen Zhezi accompanied He Yu to visit house to house in the capital. Although the He family also appeared in the capital in the early years, more than ten years have passed, and many relationships have become shallow and shelved, and they need to be picked up again.

Soon after Chongyang, He Xi officially joined the company. It happened that the Empress Dowager in the garden was summoned, and Shen Zhezi simply accompanied He Yu to face the saint.
