Lord of the House

Vol 10 Chapter 101: ups and downs

Although the news of Meng Yishan's entry into the city was confidential, it could not be concealed from anyone with a heart.

There is a pavilion with carved windows in the west corner of the Dihouyuan of Wang Xueshan's house, the minister of households. Wang Xueshan, Wang Tian, ​​and Yu Xinyuan sat around the fireplace. The pavilion did not let servants come in to serve them. Wang Chao was a junior, so he stood aside. Tea handed water.

"We must never let the Hanghu Army come in," Yu Xinyuan frowned and said with a worried face: "After a big defeat in western Zhejiang, the emperor was forced to bow his head to Chen Xiyan and ask him to come out and preside over the situation. This is still temporary. As long as the She family soldiers and horses are repelled, the emperor will most likely let Chen Xiyan retire and return home. But if the Hanghu Army enters Jiangning City, if Chen Xiyan refuses to 'resign', who can force him? If Chen Xiyan refuses to 'resign' ', we are in a difficult situation..."

Yu Xinyuan could not take care of his son's capture by the Zhejiang-Fujian army. He could not protect himself at the moment, so he had to ask Wang Tian to come to Wang Xueshan's house to discuss countermeasures.

"In the case of the Qu family, it was definitely not Gu Wuchen and Lin Fu who were chasing the wind. If there is no real evidence, Gu Wuchen and Lin Fu dared to destroy the Qu family under the eyes of Chen Xiyan?" He understands the case better than Wang Tian and Yu Xinyuan, and he does not think that Chen Xiyan is a soft-hearted master. In the matter of Xie Chaozhong leading the army, he and Wang Tian have completely stood on the opposite side of Chen Xiyan. I hope that Chen Xiyan can pretend that this has never happened in the future.

The relationship between Hanghu Army and Chen Xiyan is very deep, and it will not change because Yu Xinyuan put Wang Yue as a nail in Hanghu Army. Chen Xiyan is already the chief assistant at this time. Wouldn't it be easy to kill the three of them?

Wang Tian said: "Of course we know that we can't let the Hanghu Army enter Jiangning City. I'm afraid the emperor is not willing to let the Hanghu Army in, but the current situation is critical. , I'm afraid it's not up to us, and it's up to the emperor, right?"

"If only Huaixi soldiers and Jiangzhou soldiers could return to Jiangning earlier..." Wang Xueshan said regretfully.

The Hanghu Army was next to the west of Zhejiang, so the reaction was the fastest after the Huinan Army was destroyed. After the collapse of the Huinan Army, Meng Yishan immediately led his army north to Linshui. After obtaining the decree, he entered Danyang within a day; he himself came to Jiangning to restore the decree, and his intention was nothing more than to fight for the king of diligence. If you are successful, go to Jiangning City first.

As long as the Hanghu Army entered Jiangning City and was incorporated into the Royal Battalion Army, Meng Yishan would not be able to escape the position of the Imperial Army.

Yue Lengqiu was in Jiangzhou and Dong Yuan was in Guoyang, a little farther away from Jiangning. I was afraid that he would only know the news of Jiangning's danger at this time, which was more than a step or two slower than Meng Yishan.

Of course, Dongyang Mansion's army is the closest to Jiangning and can be called elites, but Lin Tingli and Lin Fu are both from the Lin family, and Dongyang Mansion and Huaidong wear the same pants.

Not to mention the fact that Dongyang Prefecture's army entered Jiangning City, even if they crossed the river and entered the south bank to help each other, Lin Tingli was ranked after Dong Yuan and Yue Lengqiu.

Wang Xueshan, Wang Tian, ​​and Yu Xinyuan all knew that Meng Yishan could not lead the Hanghu Army into Jiangning, but the three of them were still "avoiding suspicion" for Xie Chaozhong's military leadership at home. loud.

Wang Chao couldn't intervene, he just helped to add water.

There were footsteps sounding at this moment, Wang Chao walked outside the door, and when he saw his confidant Han Bin approaching, he said displeasedly, "Didn't you say that you are not allowed to come over and disturb him?"

"It seems that there are guests joking in Madam Ru's yard, and I thought the adults knew..." Han Bin said in a low voice.

Wang Chao raised his brows, and Han Bin came here to tip off the news that Chen Ruyi should be keeping the male guest, not the sisters who get along with each other on weekdays.

Wang Chao married Chen Ruyi last month. He used 500 domestic servants to ride high-headed horses through the streets and alleys, and he was considered to be in the limelight in Jiangning City. At that time, his Wang family was in Jiangning City, and there were rumors everywhere that his father Wang Xueshan was just around the corner. Who would have thought that Xie Chaozhong would be so useless in western Zhejiang, calling him Wang Jiale extremely sad - no one would mention the matter of worshipping the prime minister and entering the cabinet, and he was also worried about fighting back against Chen Xiyan, and he could not even keep his current official position.

Chen Ruyi still obeyed the rules after passing through the door. Could it be that she disliked the Wang family at this time? Wang Chao thought about it in his heart, and secretly said: If this **** doesn't follow the rules of women, give her a good face.

Wang Chao couldn't get out for a while, so he just said to Han Bin, "I know..." and sent Han Bin away. He walked back to the pavilion, but his mind flew to Chen Ruyi, the new concubine. What kind of male guest came into the house late at night?

Wang Xueshan, Wang Tian, ​​and Yu Xinyuan gathered around the stove and could not discuss any countermeasures. After a while, Yu Xinyuan and Wang Tian left.

Wang Chao kept thinking of the guests in Chen Ruyi's yard, and rushed over.

Wang Chao took Chen Ruyi as his concubine, bought a house in the east of Wangfu, and got through to make Chen Ruyi a residence.

Before Chen Ruyi agreed to allow Wang Chao to be a concubine, she said that she did not want to see the face of the Wang family, so the residence should have an independent courtyard connected to the outside. Wang Chao was so fascinated that he lost two souls at the time, and Chen Ruyi agreed with all his requests.

Seeing Han Bin also standing there outside the courtyard, Wang Chao asked, "The guest is gone?"

"Not yet." Han Bin said.

"What time is it, there are still guests in the yard, and if it is announced, where will my Wang family face?" Wang Chao complained loudly, opened the door and walked straight in, without thinking about leaving Chen Ruyi's face, thinking to himself. If you don't go in, the green hat will be put on your head.

The courtyard where Chen Ruyi lives is a two-story courtyard. It is not large in scope, but very delicate. The wing is surrounded by an atrium. Downstairs is where the servants and maids live. Upstairs is the living room, study and meeting room. living room.

Wang Chao went straight upstairs and saw a man in a green shirt sitting on the soft couch he usually sat on, while Chen Ruyi was sitting at the bottom. : "Why don't you let me know about your distinguished guests, don't you think the time is wrong?"

"Wang Shaojun, I haven't seen you for many years, so you don't remember the old friendship and want to expel guests?" The man in the blue shirt asked with a smile.

Wang Chao turned his face and saw that the familiar face under the lamp was actually She Feihu, who had been away from Jiangning for several years. He was so frightened that he almost fell downstairs, grabbed the handrail of the stairs in panic, and asked sharply, "You, You... are you going to assassinate this official?"

"Wang Shaojun is joking, Ruyi and I are brothers and sisters. I learned that Ruyi is marrying you as a concubine. As a brother, how can I not come to congratulate you? What did I assassinate you for?" She Feihu smiled slightly and sat there. He straightened his robes and looked at Wang Chao calmly, but he never thought that he would still be needed.

"You... Ruyi..." Wang Chao said incoherently, his eyes were also rolling on the faces of She Feihu and Chen Ruyi. She Feihu's appearance had almost scared him downstairs, and learned that Chen Ruyi was actually with She Feihu I have known each other for a long time, and the relationship is so close that I am so shocked that I can't even utter a single sentence.

Chen Ruyi only came to prominence after She Feihu left Jiangning, but before She Feihu came to Jiangning, she was a gentleman in Jiangning Chengchen. Wang Chao never expected Chen Ruyi to be the secret of the She family in Jiangning. pile.

"Xiang Gong, what's the matter with you?" Chen Ruyi's voice was soft and glutinous, came over to support Wang Chao's body that was about to slump, and said to him coquettishly, "Didn't your Wang family always think that the slave family came from a lowly family? Are you angry with your father and mother? The slave family also has difficulties to express. Now most of the governors have accepted the slave family as their righteous daughter, and the second son and the slave family have become brothers and sisters. Why is the husband unhappy?"

Wang Chao saw Han Bin coming upstairs from the back, and he didn't know when he took a knife in his hand. He seemed to be not surprised by the situation in front of him, and his body really collapsed...

************

The rebels from Zhejiang and Fujian are pointing directly at Jiangning, and the city of Jiangning is destined to have no peace.

Lin Xuwen was also the first to know about Meng Yishan's entry into Jiangning.

"Meng Yishan is too greedy!" Lin Xuwen said sadly.

"If Meng Yishan led the Hanghu Army into Jiangning City, the situation would not be too bad!" Huang Jinnian said.

Although the city of Jiangning has a curfew and clean streets, it will not prevent these senior officials from visiting each other through the streets.

"Although the emperor looked at the cottage and asked Chen Xiang to come out and preside over the overall situation, he did not punish Yu Xinyuan, Wang Xueshan, and Wang Tian. I think the emperor is still very dissatisfied with Chen Xiang. Right now, he is just forced to bow his head because of the situation," Lin Xuwen said. "Don't say that Yu Xinyuan, Wang Xueshan and Wang Tian will try their best to prevent the Hanghu Army from entering the city. I'm afraid that the emperor does not want the Hanghu Army to enter the city. Meng Yishan can't come to Jiangning, he can delay in Danyang House, and attack Zhejiang from the flank. The Fujian army is always a threat. Since Meng Yishan has come to Jiangning, the emperor will not let the Hanghu army enter Jiangning City, but let Meng Yishan lead the Hanghu army to defend Xuanzhou or Liyang, can Meng Yishan still be able to evade it? If the Hanghu army is defeated, Jiang Jiang Ning is really in danger if the state army and Huaidong troops can't come over in time..."

"When will Duke Pengcheng come back to help Jiangning?" Huang Jinnian asked.

"Jin'an was conquered on the fifth day of the first year, and the seventeenth should also land in Mingzhou," Lin Xuwen deduced, "but Huaidong troops and horses must be prepared, and it will take time to enter Jiangning from East Zhejiang. Now, the Zhejiang and Fujian troops are much more comfortable~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Lao Shiqi may not have rushed over here."

At this moment, the family came in and announced that Sun Wenbing and Lin Xulu had come.

Lin Xulu is the eldest son of Lin Tingli. Although he is a loose official, he has never held an official position. Instead, he stayed to deal with the affairs of the Lin family. He walked in with Sun Wenbing, rubbed their hands, and said to Lin Xuwen and Huang Jinnian: "This ghost weather, I feel It's even colder than last year, and if the Huai River in the north is frozen, the situation will be terrible..."

The Xu Si line of defense has a strong anti-penetration ability to the Yanhu cavalry, but Huaixi is much worse. Although Tao Chun can lead the original Changhuai army to defend Guoyang, as long as the upper reaches of Huaidong can freeze, the Yanhu cavalry can even You can bypass Guoyang and enter the hinterland of Huaixi to attack the city and seize the stronghold, and destroy it. From Haozhou to Dongyang, there are not many obstacles that can be blocked.

"Rather than worrying about this, we must beware of Dong Yuan leading troops and horses to compete for the achievements of the King of Diligence. Liu Tingzhou is loyal to the imperial court. When Dong Yuan and Liu Tingzhou join forces, most of Xinyang and Hao Shou's troops will go south. Tao Chun won't defend Guoyang alone at all," Lin Xuwen said, "Dongyang still needs to be more resolute..."

"I will send someone back to Dongyang Mansion," Lin Xulu said. He was also worried that his father would be confused. During the Ninglu battle, his father had been confused once. Although everyone was a family, he couldn't stand the series of major events. The last commit was confused twice, "Old Seventeen should be able to arrive in Mingzhou in the next two days. The first troops and horses have already entered Qianjiangkou. Wen Bing and I are entering the city at this time, just to tell you about this..."

"Oh, is that right?" Huang Jinnian was excited. He and Lin Xuwen were worried that Huaidong's main force in eastern Fujian would not be able to keep up. Since Huaidong can gather tens of thousands of elites in eastern Zhejiang, the initiative is still in their hands. , this news is more comforting than anything else. My QT room is open!
