Northern Dynasties Imperial Industry

In the evening, Yu Wentai returned to Taifu. The joy that the good news from Beizhou brought to his heart had already faded. He was not angry because Zhao Gui pretended to be sick and suffered a misfortune. He just felt a little tired. So he didn't go back to the main hall to take care of things, but went straight back to the inner house.

Not long after he returned home and sat down, several people posted messages asking to see him, either because of the good news from Beizhou or because they heard that Zhao Gui was suffering from a serious illness. The two messages appeared on the same day, but they gave people completely different feelings.

Yu Wentai was not in a happy mood to meet outsiders at the moment. He asked all the members to meet him in person tomorrow, but only allowed his nephew Yu Wenhu and a few nephews to come into the house to have dinner with him.

After a few people sat down in the hall and exchanged glances, He Lanxiang, the most mature and solemn man who had already started to take charge of the government, took the lead and said: "Uncle, I heard that there is another good news in Beizhou, and Hua Zhenggong and others are breaking the border again. The thief Hu Jukou?”

Speaking of this matter, Yu Wentai's eyebrows relaxed a little, and he said with a smile: "It was the urgent report from Li Xianqing that he received during the White Water Parade. At that time, Li Boshan took the initiative to ask for troops to go north. Li Xianqing attacked rashly without distinguishing the true and false of the thieves. After being trapped, he was trapped in the state city. Fortunately, he was rescued in time by Li Boshan and defeated the bandit army outside the city, and then chased him all the way north.

Yu Chigang, who was at the table, heard that Yu Wentai's tone was full of praise for Li Tai, as if his talents were the key to victory in this battle, and he felt a little unhappy. He couldn't help but said: "The troops from all the states have gathered for this battle. All soldiers know that soldiers are good at fighting, and the one they attacked was Buluo Jihu, who was not known for his strength. Li Boshan, a young general, might be able to work hard, but if he was said to be decisive, I would not believe it. ”

Next to him, Yu Chijiong heard that his brother's tone was a little excited and his expression was a little explicit. He was worried about offending Da Xingtai, so he frowned and scolded: "A war happened in a remote and wild land. How can anyone outside the incident?" If you know all the details, how can you make such a judgment! When the troops arrive and the detailed battle report is presented, the matter will become clear. If someone really wants to interfere with the situation because of the remote location, how can we be so lenient?"

Yu Wentai listened to their brothers singing in harmony, but his expression did not change significantly. After a moment of silence, he suddenly sighed and said with regret: "Li Boshan is a young hero who is both civil and military. He is really talented and talented. Even some narrow-minded old people Everything is afraid of losing its place, and of course it is inevitable to be jealous and ostracized by the same kind of people who come after me. But even if it is just a kind face, I still have to maintain it, otherwise I will cause trouble for my family and it will not be tolerated. "

When several people heard this, their expressions turned cold, and they nodded in agreement. In particular, Yuchigang, who was the first to open this topic, rolled his eyes and wanted to explain again, but under the hints in the eyes of several others, he was worried that he would make a mistake if he spoke too much, so he no longer dared to speak randomly.

When the dinner officially started, Yu Wentai invited his children to eat together, and specially called the fifth daughter to his table. After looking up and down, he sighed with regret: "After all, it's... You little girl's blessings are not deep enough, and you have missed all the thoughts that you have made for you."

The little girl was not too old. Facing the majestic Aye, she just timidly lowered her head and pinched her skirt. She had no idea what Aye was talking about and did not dare to answer.

But after hearing Yu Wentai's meaningful words, several other elderly people in the table had some obvious changes in their expressions. In order to hide the smile at the corner of his mouth, Yu Chigang hurriedly raised his glass to cover it up.

Yu Wenhu, who had not spoken much since he sat down, now had a bit of joy in his eyes, but he was not in a hurry to speak. During the meal, while he was pouring wine for Yu Wentai, Yu Wenhu took advantage of the opportunity to whisper. Asked: "Uncle, Mr. Zhongshan's condition..."

Before he finished speaking, the wine glass in Yuwentai's hand was placed directly on the table, and most of the wine that had just been filled in the glass overflowed. When he saw that Yu Wenhu looked a little frightened, he suppressed the irritability in his heart, waved his hand and said: "It's none of your business, the veteran is teasing me!"

The unhappiness in his heart was stirred up again by Yuwenhu's questions. Yuwentai immediately lost his appetite, threw his chopsticks on the table, and drank several glasses of wine one after another.

Seeing this, everyone in the banquet did not dare to indulge in a big meal. Yu Wenhu and others did not dare to speak rashly, but Yu Wentai's eldest son Yu Wenyu quickly got up from the table, stopped his brothers and sisters who were immersed in eating and drinking without realizing that the atmosphere was different, and led a few little ones to bow to their father and say goodbye. Then leave.

"Tongwantu is becoming more and more like the head of the household!"

In order to ease the awkward atmosphere, Yu Wenhu pointed at Yu Wenyu's back and praised him with a smile.

Although Yu Wentai was a little angry, his expression softened a bit after hearing this, and he nodded and said: "This boy does not have the demeanor of a soldier, but if we say that he is a senior in the household, he is still far behind. !”

After saying this, he no longer worried about his mood, and turned to Yu Wenhu and said: "In a few days, you will go to Zhao Yuangui's residence with the book and summon his young son to study in the government together. Mr. Li and Mr. Yu are classmates. "

When Yu Wenhu heard this, he guessed that the rumor that Zhao Gui was critically ill was probably because the old boy was pretending to be ill and using old feelings to coerce his uncle, and he couldn't help but feel a little angry.

Although he was unhappy that Li Tai had become his son-in-law, and even secretly communicated with Zhao Gui to prevent this from happening, Zhao Gui's pampering and arrogance also made him feel very unhappy, so he also He didn't bother to explain that Young Master Zhao Gui was already studying in a government school. He just knew that one more boy would come to sign in at his place.

He Lanxiang opened the army and had a deeper understanding of military aircraft affairs, so he could better understand why Yu Wentai made such a decision.

He stood up, lowered his head in shame and said: "After all, the younger generation is still short of talent and unable to be put to good use in the country. I am still trapped by these old and bad feelings, and my mood cannot be long." ”

"You have done very well, very well. When I was your age... well, I was more prosperous than you are now. That is also the situation. If you want to make me my old friend in a short time, To replace all old good things is to underestimate the merits and wisdom of our predecessors.”

After hearing this, Yu Wentai waved his hand and motioned He Lanxiang to sit down first. He proudly showed off his youth and strength, and then said with emotion: "Although Zhao Yuangui is not known for his bravery, he can The people of Harmony may be a little arrogant now, but in the early years, they had impressive moral integrity and everyone was happy to follow him. Therefore, when Qingshui Gong was killed, he was able to control the mood of the people and set the trend for me.

Although today is not that time, how could we have today without that time? I should treat him kindly both in love and in matters. If I can't tolerate this kind of behavior, how can those who come after me believe him? "

His words were not meant to be addressed to the juniors here, but rather to explain themselves. The so-called "never forget the original intention" is a bit pretentious for a hegemon, whether it is for internal unity and stability, or for continued borrowing. Even with Zhao Gui's influence and appeal in the old Wuchuan ministry, he had to make such a decision.

Zhao Gui's pretense this time actually reminded Yu Wentai that with the development of his power, his attention and reliance on these Wuchuan Township Party members were indeed not as good as in the early years. Even Yu Wentai like Zhao Gui There was always a secret suspicion and a sense of urgency.

Putting aside the appointment of various officials and nobles, in terms of the marriage of children, which is the most important thing that reflects the depth of friendship, it is a matter of course that Yuwentai's eldest daughter is suitable for the emperor's sect, and then she married Li Yuan, a confidant. Then Li Bi and Yu Jin, none of them were old friends of the Wuchuan Township Party.

If he had followed his original idea and married his daughter to Li Tai, the direct descendant of the Li family in Longxi, not to mention what other parties would think, at least the mentality of these Wuchuan party members would be somewhat unbalanced. Although it is said that everyone has a deep relationship and there is no need to publicize it too deliberately, at least it must be late but not too far away!

After the Battle of Mangshan in the ninth year of Datong, Yuwentai's most important concern was to restore the army and combat effectiveness as soon as possible, and other matters were not considered a focus for the time being.

With this mentality, when Li Boshan, a young man, first appeared in his sight, he proposed a military and political framework that he had been planning for a long time.

At the beginning, he thought he should be a young man from an aristocratic family who was proud of his family background and was fond of talking about military affairs and making nonsense. But then, every step he made and acted, almost scratched Yu Wentai's itch, and he cooperated just right. The pace of recruiting Guan Longhao Youxiang Regiment gave Yu Wentai a faint sense of ideological compatibility. This feeling was sometimes even stronger than when interacting with Su Chuo.

It is precisely because of this sense of compatibility that Yu Wentai pays more attention to Li Tai. Although this boy's qualifications and achievements are still low, he has an inexplicable certainty that this boy will shine in the Kansai he rules.

The fate between people is very wonderful. Yu Wentai wanted to adopt Li Tai as his son-in-law, so that he ignored some situations because of this idea.

For example, the process of this review is going very smoothly, and the troops who have been training for three years are gradually becoming a strong army. But then a question arises, that is, this army with a large proportion of Han people, will they wholeheartedly support the hegemonic regime of Yuwentai like the previous Xianbei troops?

There is no turning back when the bow is fired. Yuwentai will not give up the pace of organizing the army because of such worries, but it is also urgent to strengthen the overall control of the army. It is necessary to adopt some decrees and means to strengthen the recognition and support of Guan Longhaoyou, who serves as middle and lower-level generals, for his hegemonic regime.

Before this goal is achieved, of course, we still have to rely on the old personnel structure and relationships to control and balance Guan Longhaoyou, who has become more and more powerful.

With such a plan in his mind, Yu Wentai still felt a little regretful, but he was no longer as angry as before. Seeing that it was getting late, he waved his hands and dismissed everyone in disinterest. When he was about to go to bed, he suddenly chatted with a young man. Crazy, he directly summoned several concubines to sleep here.

The new year is approaching, so I would like to wish you all a happy new year and happiness in the new year! There are a lot of personnel around the Spring Festival, and I don’t have the time or energy to sit down and write. I will take a leave first and resume double updates on the third day of the new year. . .
