Chapter 1 It's all about Jinling's daughter
On December 27th, the New Year is approaching, heavy snow is everywhere, and Jinling City is covered with silver.
The Xinting Pavilion in the west of the city will gather more than a thousand people, with red clothes and purple clothes, and a crown covering the clouds, and you can't see the end. Lincangtai is on the bank of the Yangtze River in the west of the Xinting Pavilion. Almost the most powerful people in the entire Great Chu are surrounded by the small platform. In front of it is the Emperor An Xiulin of Chu. He rubbed his hands and stamped his feet. He completely ignored the emperor's majesty and looked at the river anxiously, saying, "Why haven't you arrived yet?"
Xie Xiwen smiled and said, "I just received the news that the general has passed Jiangning, and it will probably take half an hour."
Instead of following the army, Xu You brought five thousand guards back to Beijing first, followed the Wo Water into the Huai River, then passed the Ruxu Water into the Yangtze River from Hefei, and then went downstream.
After passing Jiangning, after passing Sanshan and Bailuzhou, you can see Xinting from afar.
"Here you come!"
An Xiulin suddenly ran down to Lincangtai and rushed straight to the dock. This behavior shocked everyone around him. Fortunately, Tao Jiang reacted quickly enough and waved her hand and said, "Hurry, hurry up, guards will follow!"
When the emperor moved, the whole book was in chaos. Everyone hurriedly chased after him. Even the old officials in the court lost all their elegance. After finally reaching the dock, eight sea dragon boats appeared in their sight. They were not as spectacular and mighty as they imagined that the flags and swords and guns were flying. They were just hanging a red flag representing the Chu army on the boat, and there were no extra ornaments on the rest.
Perhaps seeing the movement on the banks of the river, Xu You walked out of the cabin, wearing a moon-white robe, a black belt on his waist, and leather boots on his feet. He stood in the wind and was not like a person in the turbid world.
"Weizhi!" An Xiulin held his hands together and shouted loudly.
Xu You seemed to be stunned. After a moment, he quickly walked to the bow of the boat, lifted his robe and knelt down, and visited him from afar, showing great respect and loyalty.
Whispers rang out in the crowd.
"The general is as humble as this, we are really ashamed!"
"Yes, rumors have been everywhere a few days ago..."
"How can those villains judge a gentleman's affair?"
"The so-called generals, tigers and wolves, destroy the country of Thousand Miles, and their brilliant military power has gone down to history. Throughout history, only Han Baiwei Huo Kebi!"
Xie Xiwen and Tao Jiang heard it and looked at each other. Tao Jiang whispered: "Wang Mang!"
"Emperor Wucheng, Emperor Ai, Emperor Ping for three generations of stupid and incompetent, how could Wang Mang usurp the Han Dynasty? Even if Wang Mang is gone, Zhang Mang and Li Mang, the overthrow of the Han Dynasty is the common crime of the king and his ministers! Now the emperor is the wise ruler. We only need to help the government with all our hearts, let the people live in peace, and the country is prosperous. Even if Wang Mang is alive, he can only be his official position and there is no chance for him to rebel!"
Xie Xiwen thought it very clearly. Just looking at An Xiulin's attitude towards Xu You today, you will know that the emperor would not listen to any advice. Then he could only settle for the second best. On the one hand, he should do his duty as a prime minister. The people's hearts are in the court, and no one can rebel. On the other hand, he should keep a close eye on Xu You and kill the ambitions that may or may not have in the bud - this is for his own good and for the country.
"Brother Xuanhui is saying!" Tao Jiang has always been the only one who follows Xie Xiwen. The two prime ministers are truly united and virtuous, saying: "With you and I are here, no matter Wang Mang or Cao Cao, there will be no chance!"
Sea dragon boat docked.
Xu You just passed the springboard and stepped onto the land. An Xiulin had already come over. He reached out to stop Xu You's kneeling body, hugged him, and patted his back happily.
"Weizhi, you're finally back!"
An Xiulin may not be the wise and powerful master like Yuan Yu, but he respects Xu You even more affectionately and righteousness. Feeling the sincerity in the hug, Xu You chuckled and said, "Yes, I'm back!"
An Xiulin took three more excitement and separated from Xu You, looked up and down, and said, "It's great, I'm not thin, I'm just a little dark!"
"The water in Guanzhong is good and the food is good. It's just that the sun is bright and there's no way to tan."
"Haha, go back to Jinling to raise it well. Be fairer, which is the You Ye Yiguang that the girls of the Great Chu admire."
The two were chatting and making jokes that men knew. An Xiulin did not mention the battle situation in Luoyang, nor did he mention the rebellion in Yizhou. He only cares about Xu You now.
People have a strong heart, how can Xu You remain indifferent?
I had seen the ceremony with Xie Xiwen and others, and the grand welcome ceremony only started. Hundreds of thousands of people in Jinling City took to the streets, lined up on both sides of the road, wearing new clothes, carrying fruit baskets, waving scarves and flags, preparing to see the general's style.
Xu You didn't want to show off this and planned to quietly enter the city from the south gate, but An Xiulin convinced him and invited Xu You to ride on the imperial chariot together. Xu You strongly refused. An Xiulin allowed him to ride a horse next to the carriage, saying that he was an escort, but it was also a rare honor for his subjects.
There is no need to mention the sensation caused by entering the city. The girls rushed to the front, and threw fruit into the car. If the Yulin Guard had not tried his best to maintain it, there would have been a serious stampede.
When Xu You studied for Cui Yuanxiu, someone who is interested in writing a poem: "The wind sends the autumn lotus fragrance, and the moon passes the sparse curtain and the night is cool. Since I saw Xu Lang, I have lost all my lovesickness."
Today someone wrote a poem: "When the gods are clear and the eyebrows are tall and the sturdy, and the swaying leaves show their kindness. The surging rivers are flowing, and they are all thinking of the daughter of Jinling."
Ding and Nai are two kinds of cooking utensils in ancient times, referring to the prime minister and other ruling ministers. This poem is more straightforward and respectful than the previous one, and should have been written by Xu You's fans.
After leaving the crowded Zhuque Avenue, the emperor in Taicheng feasted the ministers, sang and danced until midnight. Many people were drunk. An Xiulin originally wanted to stay at Xu You, but was bid farewell by Xu You on the grounds that he was tired of the journey.
Staying in the deep palace at night, even if the world is selfless, it will be worthy of the demographic!
Only when she returned to the General's Mansion could she see Zhan Wenjun. She was wearing plain clothes and face, standing against the door, her pretty eyes were slightly red, and her face showed joy, and she said, "Husband..."
Xu You hugged her hair lightly, smelled her hair, and said, "Ah, thank you for your hard work in the capital day and night!"
"No matter how hard you work, it's not as dangerous as your husband's fight..."
"It's not a danger. I'm a general. I won't hurt me unless the entire army is defeated..."
Zhan Wenjun raised his head, shyly outside, but charming inside, and said, "Do you miss me?"
Xu You hugged her body a little tightly, blew a breath into her crystal earlobe, and chuckled, "Did I think about it? Could it be that you can't feel it?"
Zhan Wenjun almost had water flowing out of his eyes, and he spat lightly: "It's not that I can see the picture, why do I feel...ah..."
Xu You beat Hengli and picked up Zhan Wenjun, pretending to be angry and said, "As a man, how can you be humiliated? Look at me, I will kill all directions, and I will definitely surrender!"
Zhan Wenjun bit his lip and said, "Who surrenders may not be sure..."
After taking a bath, Xu You changed into light clothes for homes. When asked about the current situation, Zhan Wenjun said: "Yizhou is all invaded, but it is very quiet. Jiangzhou has drawn Zhang Jian, a powerful general from Pingjiang Army, to assist the governor Wei Buqu. He has recaptured the three counties and twenty-one counties and suppressed the rebels at the junction of Guangzhou and Jiangzhou. Guangzhou, Yuezhou, and Ningzhou are in a tug-of-war, and new wars are reported almost every day. The court is at a little bit of an advantage, but it takes time to quell the rebellion..."
"Guang, Yue, Ning is not enough to worry about Jiangzhou. If Zhang Huai is stable in Xiangzhou, it can successfully block the Tianshi Road to the north. Even if Sun Guan's troops leave Yizhou, they will only go all the way to the west and cannot join the south. This is good news." Xu You said: "By the way, is there any progress on Zhang Huai?"
"Zhang Huai has figured out the land surrounding Fengdu Mountain, but what is in the mountains is so he is afraid of alarming the snakes, so he dare not go deeper, and has not yet found out the truth. After the layout of the secret government, he has locked in a total of three people related to Fengdu Mountain in each county in Xiangzhou. One of them is Jiang Chengxian, the largest grain merchant in Xiangzhou. He is responsible for the transportation of grain, vegetables, salt and oil and clothing in Fengdu Mountain. The other is Cao Lan, a prominent family member of Xiangzhou. He is responsible for making good friends and transportation inside and outside.
There was another person who was one of the top brothels in Xiangzhou, Aunt Yan, who was responsible for inquiring about the news, alerting the periphery, and welcoming and seeing off the trip. The three people were not related to each other. The secret office has been surveillance so far, and they have never found any contact with them. But it is worth noting that when the former Yuzhou governor Yu Ying was in power, he had a close relationship with Cao Lan. The two went out day and night, and they were together day and night. There were even rumors outside that Yu Ying broke his sleeves and Cao Lan divided his peaches. They were friends of Longyang."
Xu You pondered and said, "What about your judgment?"
"Yu Ying, chief of the ruler of Xiangzhou for many years, has also risen strongly in the past six days. I think he cannot escape the relationship and is likely to be an important figure in Six days. However, when the throne of the throne of the emperor, Yu Ying was the first to report Xiangrui to persuade him to advance. From this perspective, he doesn't look like..."
"The same group of people persuaded him to enter, but what about Zhu Zhi? Zhu Zhi had a strange intention, so he could not rule out the suspicion of Yu Ying."
Xu You thought for a while and said, "Where is Yu? Is it involved?"
A single Yu Ying has no impact on the overall situation, but if the entire Yu family is a six-day backstage or partner, the matter will be serious.
Fortunately, Zhang Huai went to Xiangzhou to serve as the governor. Only a few people including Xu You and Zhang Huai knew about the purpose behind it. If they had reported to Taiwan Province earlier, all the arrangements would become jokes.
Zhan Wenjun looked solemn and said, "Wenyushi sent someone to investigate the Yu family secretly, but three people disappeared."
“Missing?”
"Yes, you can't see people in your life, you can't see corpses in your life, and you can't see corpses in your life, and you will disappear silently!"
"How did Yu's hand move?"
"Unsure, if the Yu family takes action, then six days will definitely be related to the Yu family." Zhan Wenjun explained: "According to the regulations of the secret government, the Wenyu Department has very standardized procedures for investigating the aristocratic families and noble families, and will never be quick to make progress. That is to say, there are no operational mistakes, but such a thing still happened. From this we can see that the Yu family is not simple. This is not simple, it does not refer to the Yu family's foundation. As a top aristocratic family, there is no doubt about the foundation. However, the Yu family is not the Mingdie Secretariat of Xiliang, nor the Marquis of the Northern Wei Dynasty. He should not have the power to confront the secret palace and hide in the dark..."
"So, as long as it is confirmed that Yu's actions are taken, it means that Yu's support is behind the scenes for six days!"
