Chapter 1157 Don’t force me
Hearing what Feng Duhu said, he took a closer look at his expression to make sure there was no duplicity.
Not even as displeased as expected, or even furious.
The right lady breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as a pillow person, she always felt that she understood A Lang, but now she was a little unsure.
This reaction...is a little too bland, right?
She asked cautiously:
“Alang, are you really not angry?”
"What's the use of being angry?" Feng Duhu spit out two melon seeds, threw the rind on the table, and then lay back in the chair.
"Wei Yan is the general of the left hussar, and in terms of position, he is still above me, the right hussar."
“Plus, it’s the palace’s decision. Even if I’m angry, can I change this decision?”
If it were just the palace's idea, the Central Protectorate would have no choice but to ban it.
But Wei, an old man who was a troublemaker, joined in. Feng Zhongdu alone could not withstand the combined attack of both sides.
“According to the news from Wei State, Jiang Ji in Hanoi was hated by Cao Shuang and has now attached himself to Sima Yi in Luoyang.”
"As a result, the situation in Hedong has changed again. It is a safe strategy to send Wei Yan over to watch."
Speaking of this, Feng Duhu was angry and scolded Qi for not arguing:
“Cao Shuang is just a pig, worse than a pig!”
Even if you want to fight, then fight well.
Excluding dissidents means excluding dissidents. At best, this is a means.
But you actually dare to play with the woman Cao Rui left behind?
Using utensils that can only be used by emperors at the banquet with the Three Dogs in Taichung?
Don’t you know that you are the auxiliary minister designated by Cao Rui?
Don’t you know that by doing this, you are destroying the legitimacy of your own governance?
When Cao Rui left Luoyang, he sent Jiang Ji, a veteran of three dynasties, to guard Hanoi.
At the last moment before his death, he decided to appoint the Yu family as his queen, just to win over the Yu family in Hanoi.
In order to better control the puppet emperor of Wei, Cao Shuang actually moved the puppet queen mother of Wei to another palace.
Cao Rui worked hard to prepare the ground for him before he died, but he ruined it at will.
I don’t know if Cao Rui would be so angry that he would crawl out of the underground if he knew something about it.
It’s okay now, let’s just hand over Hanoi to Sima Yi.
Cao Rui was also blind when he appointed such a person as an auxiliary minister.
Nowadays, Luoyang is becoming more and more popular among the Wei Dynasty, and Xuchang is being criticized more and more.
The stronger Sima Yi in Luoyang was, the more expensive the Han Dynasty had to pay to advance eastward.
The weaker Cao Shuang in Xuchang, the more likely it is that Emperor Wu will seize the opportunity.
It would be ridiculous if Emperor Wu really wanted to make history and break through Hefei and go north.
The changes in the situation in Wei State forced Ji Han to strengthen defenses in Hedong.
It was through this incident that Zhang Xingcai decided to establish the Hedong Governor's Office and sent Wei Yan as the governor.
Feng Zhongduhu said that Husky was dead.
Mrs. You naturally knows why her Alang scolded Cao Shuang.
After all, when two tigers fight, only one will be injured, not both.
Even if it’s not two tigers, one tiger and one leopard or one wolf will do.
It just so happens that now there is one tiger and one pig.
The tiger is still guarding the intersection where the Han Dynasty marches eastward...
But I saw the right lady muttering a little:
“If I had known earlier, I might as well have agreed to the prince’s affairs first…”
Feng Zhongduhu shook his head:
"So what if you agree? Selling your daughter can certainly bring you temporary peace, but it cannot bring you eternal peace."
“As the saying goes, the heaven and earth are unkind and treat all things as stupid dogs. Compassion is not enough to command troops, let alone the most ruthless emperor.”
"The emperor is responsible for the world, and we cannot be too demanding on things like friendship. Doing this in the palace shows that he is a qualified royal family."
When the right lady heard what Feng Duhu said, her eyes suddenly widened and she said in a chuckle:
“Alang, you...”
Feng Zhongduhu glanced at her:
"What? You can't even tell the truth at home? Are you going to accuse me of slandering your Majesty?"
The right lady spat at him, but the look on her face was a little melancholy:
“The most ruthless emperor’s family...alas!”
I want to defend my sister, but think about it, haven't I been used by the emperor's family to bind Alang for so many years?
Fortunately, Alang is a man who values friendship and is different from other men in the world.
If not…
Madam You didn't think about it any further, her eyes just wandered, and she was quite glad to have glanced at Feng Duhu.
However, he saw that Feng Duhu was already lying lazily in the chair, his eyes were half-squinted, his eyes were a little wandering, and he occasionally looked towards a certain direction in the southeast.
Obviously there is something else on his mind.
In fact, Feng Duhu already felt a little regretful at this time.
At that time, I felt soft-hearted and let that **** Yang Yi poke a big bag out of me.
Had I known this, it would be better to let the old man accompany the prime minister to see the late emperor.
Now that Old Man Wei has arrived in Hedong, it is best not to mess around.
If not, it will make things difficult for me, Fat Hu, and force me to take the path of playing politics.
Feng Duhu has always felt that the political atmosphere in Ji Han was quite good.
It can be regarded as the political legacy left by the late emperor and prime minister, and Feng Duhu naturally couldn't bear to destroy it.
Feng Duhu unconsciously raised his head, looked at the roof, and suddenly said:
“I plan to go to Lantian in a few days.”
“Going to Lantian?”
Mrs. Right was stunned for a moment and said that she was talking about business, why...
But she quickly reacted: "Is Alang going to pay homage to the prime minister?"
"Well. Since the emperor moved the capital, he has become even busier. I haven't seen the prime minister for a long time."
I don’t know if it’s because he’s getting older, but Feng Duhu found that he began to miss the people and things in the past:
“Now Achi is studying in the mansion, and I want to tell the prime minister about Achi’s academic progress.”
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Right fell silent for a while, and then she spoke after a while:
“I will also accompany Alang.”
Feng Duhu's eyes fell on Mrs. Right's face, he smiled, got up from the chair, reached over, stretched out his hand and rubbed Mrs. Right's head.
Just like when the young Feng Langjun played with the young Madam Right.
The right lady gave him an angry look.
Then he lowered his head slightly to let him rub it more smoothly.
Speaking of which, although she is the right lady and is in charge of government affairs, she is the youngest among all the wives and concubines in the Feng Mansion.
Just because of her performance, people always subconsciously ignore her age.
The two of them seemed to have a tacit understanding and looked at each other. Then the right lady took the initiative to come over and rest her head on Feng Duhu's lap.
They are an old couple, but they can still stay together in the hot summer.
Fortunately, Feng's family is rich and can have primitive air conditioners like Bingjian everywhere.
As soon as this feeling came up, Feng Duhu remembered that his X chromosome wanted to turn over.
“Elbow, follow me into the inner room.”
The other wives and concubines in the house are not too young. Although they can still give birth, they are already considered advanced mothers after all.
It seems that the hope of turning over the X chromosome will still fall on the youngest right lady.
The right lady raised her head and gave Feng Duhu a charming look.
The Queen was a little surprised to learn that Feng Yong was taking his family to Lantian.
“Feng Mingwen agreed to the Hedong Governor’s Office so easily?”
Adou finished eating a tooth of cold melon and wiped his mouth:
"Feng Mingwen has always known how to advance and retreat, so why should the queen force him like this? When it comes to children, it's about your love and my own will, so that everyone is happy."
"Besides, what Siniang said is indeed true. Whether it is conquering the world or ruling the world, when the prince becomes emperor, he must always have his own opinions and cannot always rely on others."
Hearing this, the Queen glanced at the Emperor of Han Dynasty.
Adou can’t do anything else, but he still has self-knowledge.
But I saw him saying plausibly:
"You can't expect the prince to be as lucky as me. First, he will be assisted by his father-in-law, then by his brother-in-law, and he will also meet a virtuous queen, right?"
"Not to mention anything else, how many people have been able to achieve the level of being a father-in-law throughout the ages? How many people are comparable to Feng Mingwen?"
“I was lucky enough to encounter it, I used it when I encountered it, and I trusted it after using it, so I was able to return it to the old capital.”
“If the prince is not as lucky as me, he must cultivate his mind, study knowledge, and gain knowledge, so that he can manage the country well in the future.”
The queen had only one son, but the emperor had several sons.
So even if the little fat man dotes on the prince, he still feels that he should be moderate.
Listen to Brother Feng...oh, no, it’s Siniang’s opinion, I guess it’s not wrong.
After hearing the emperor's words, the queen couldn't help rolling her eyes even though there were some flattering words in them.
“I am so thoughtful, don’t you want the prince to be like your majesty and have good ministers and wives to support you?”
“Oh, the Feng family girl is so young, what can she tell now? It’s hard to say whether she is suitable for the prince...”
The queen looked at the emperor, half-smiling but not smiling:
“Your Majesty is speaking like this, is it because he wants to intercede with Feng Mingwen? In this case, I am no longer a human being inside and outside.”
"No, no!" The little fat man waved his hands repeatedly, "I just think there is no need to guess what Feng Mingwen is thinking all day long."
"Hasn't he already agreed to the Hedong Governor's Office? And after agreeing, he went to Lantian. It's obvious that he doesn't want to deal with this matter."
Don’t dare to offend the queen easily. Otherwise, no one in the palace will be able to help you review the memorial.
“Who knows? Maybe it’s...”
I wanted to say, "I went to Lantian on purpose to remind the Prime Minister," but when I remembered that this matter involved my late prime minister, I was afraid that His Majesty would be unhappy if I told him.
So halfway through speaking, Zhang Xingcai stopped talking and asked instead:
“What do you think of Feng Mingwen’s proposal to divide the administrative areas?”
The little fat man nodded repeatedly:
"That's great! Now that the Han Dynasty has moved its capital to Chang'an, the administrative areas must naturally be divided. Otherwise, if the name is not correct, the words will not be smooth."
According to Feng Mingwen's opinion, the Sanfu Land and Beidi County were divided from Yongzhou and became separate Sili lands.
Hedong is now used as a barrier in Guanzhong and is connected to the bandits. There will be wars at any time, so it is not suitable to be included in the Sili for the time being.
When Guandong is pacified in the future, it will not be too late to reclassify Hedong, Henan and other places under the jurisdiction of Sili.
In this way, the two capitals of Chang'an and Luoyang are within the scope of Sili, which also shows that Ji Han inherited the two Han Dynasties.
Seeing the emperor's look of approval, the queen's eyes flashed and she did not answer immediately.
She knew that His Majesty had not noticed it at all. Feng Mingwen was actually telling himself that if he really wanted to prevent the establishment of the Hedong Governor's Palace, there might not be anything he could do.
It may not be impossible to incorporate the land east of Hedong into the Sili land now.
Just change your words: He did not hesitate to use the capital to face the bandits, which showed that the Han Dynasty vowed to destroy the bandits.
So Feng Mingwen did not object to this matter, which shows that he is indeed giving in.
The queen let out a breath.
Forget it, that's the end of the matter. Let's just leave it as it is. It's not advisable to hurt feelings.
"It's justified," Queen Zhang nodded, "Your Majesty is very reasonable. In this case, it is justified to ask the prince to choose a good day to go to the Feng Mansion and get to know Feng's daughter, right?"
"Huh?" Adou was stunned for a moment. He seemed to be unable to keep up with the Queen's rapid thinking. After a while, he said, "The Queen still doesn't want to give up?"
“When did I say I was giving up?”
Zhang Xingcai glanced at Adou strangely, "Didn't Feng Mingwen himself say it, as long as his daughter likes it?"
“If Feng’s daughter really falls in love with the prince in the future, it’s hard for him to say no, right?”
Adou thought for a while: "This statement... This statement is very reasonable."
As long as it doesn’t put him in a dilemma.
“Then send someone to inquire first to see when Feng Mingwen will return home?”
“Their family must have just arrived in Lantian now, right?”
It’s really not easy to drag your family and family out on a hot day.
This trip, Feng Duhu and his wife went out together, and only Shuangshuang and Ah Chong of the family's children came with them.
The remaining children are still a little young and should not go out in this kind of weather.
Two concubines and a mistress, who stayed at the house to take care of the children.
Acting
Zhuge Zhan went through training for more than half a year—maybe it was torture? —She is definitely less pampered than before.
The Prime Minister's wife was very comforted by worshiping in front of his master's tomb in a decent manner.
Although she has been here several times, the Prime Minister’s wife still feels a little sad every time she sees Alang’s tombstone.
She stroked the tombstone and sighed:
"Alang, you left too early, leaving me and Ah Chi alone. How can I, a woman, educate him? I'm afraid that he will disgrace your reputation in the future."
“Fortunately, I let him go to Mingwen Mansion to study, and he finally made some progress. Otherwise, I would not be able to see you even if I went underground..."
He said a lot of things in a nonchalant manner.
Feng Yong also had something to say to the Prime Minister, but he had to wait until the Prime Minister's wife finished speaking before it was his turn.
So he took his two children and two wives to guard him from a distance.
Ah Chi was a little embarrassed.
Kneeling in front of the tomb, I listened to my mother saying that there was something wrong with him from time to time, but I didn't dare to say anything.
He learned that the Prime Minister’s wife and Feng Duhu had come to pay homage to the Prime Minister. Guo Mo, who had been responsible for guarding the Prime Minister’s temple since his retirement, came over to pay Feng Duhu a courtesy.
After returning the gift, Feng Duhu said:
“Mr. Guo, long time no see.”
“It is a great honor for me to have the Protector take care of me when I am in trouble.”
"Sir's achievements cannot be shown in front of others, but they are remembered in my heart."
The two chatted for a while, then looked at the prime minister’s tomb. Feng Duhu said with emotion:
“Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, things have changed. Mr. Guo still remembers Huang Gongheng (Huang Quan)?”
“Naturally remember.”
Huang Quan led his army to surrender to Wei State after his retreat was cut off in the battle of Yiling.
In the State of Wei, he was very famous. Although he had no real power, he was honored.
“He also died last year.”
Guo Mo was startled: "Huang Gongheng is also dead?"
"right."
There are almost no people of the same generation as Cheng Ting.
A few days ago, Mingming had ambitiously wanted to borrow Mrs. Right to change his X chromosome, but now, Feng Duhu felt that he was already old.
Otherwise, why would there be so many emotions?
