After the You hour, He Fu left the simple and elegant Five Army Governor's Office and walked out of the imperial city through Hongwu Gate.

It was not snowing in the capital at the end of the winter moon, and the cold was gradually coming. Under the gloomy sky, everything seemed to be calm. But He Fu had already seen the big things rushing, and even felt that the undercurrents were surging where they could not see.

When he returned to the Marquis' Mansion west of the imperial city, He Fu met his wife Xu. Xu whispered: "My niece is here, my brother Xu Zhang's daughter, cried for an afternoon."

"What are she here to do?" He Fu frowned.

"I've been retired by King Zhao, I'll be wronged at home, I'll complain to me." Xu said.

Before Xu married He Fu, she was a widow. Her younger brother Xu Zhang was once a general guarding the Yan Prince's Mansion.

The daughter of Xu Zhang, the military general of the Yan Prince's Mansion, married King Zhao Zhu Gaosui in Yongle. Later, because Emperor Taizong (Zhu Di) wanted to marry the Mu Mansion, and Madam Xu had not given birth to a child for several years, she was divorced by King Zhao and returned to her parents' home.

In this world, if a woman is divorced by her husband's family, it would be a great humiliation. Both relatives usually turn against each other and become enemies. The abandoned woman should just hang herself and make her own decision! Since Madam Xu is living in the world, isn't it natural to suffer some grievances?

Xu Zhang's relationship with the royal family became more subtle because he fell from his royal relatives all of a sudden. The royal family might also feel a little sorry for the old general of the Yan Prince's Mansion, but instead avoided him even more neglected him. Xu Zhang would probably be even more unhappy and would inevitably blame his daughter for being unscrupulous.

So He Fu immediately muttered again: "I don't know what to cry about? I don't know why I'm crying for you!"

Xu whispered: "I have lost my husband before, maybe she thinks that my aunt and nephew can share the same illness."

He Fu glared at him and said nothing. Now that he and Xu have been married for many years, they have a good relationship. How can they share the same illness with Xu Zhang's daughter?

He Fu walked into the living room of the inner house and asked Miss Xu to meet her. She was always a relative, but if she didn't meet her, she seemed too snobbish and ruthless.

After Madam Xu came in, He Fu looked at her and saw that Madam Xu and her father, Xu Zhang, had different figures. Madam Xu was a little short, petite, and a small face. Although she was very young and tender, her appearance really felt like a small family and had no demeanor.

Her eyes were red. When she saw the ceremony, she did not complain to He Fu and acted silently.

He Fu asked on his own initiative: "Your father asked you to come?"

Madam Xu shook her head and said pitifully: "When I say goodbye to my son-in-law, I just miss my aunt, what I want to come."

After hearing this, He Fu changed his words and asked, "Have your father allowed it?"

This time, Madam Xu nodded.

He Fu immediately couldn't help but think: As a hero of the "Jingnan", Xu Zhang was blocked from following the path of the Yan Prince's Mansion; was he trying to redirectly use the power of He Fu and other former Jianwen generals?

But then He Fu shook his head slightly, feeling that he was worried... Xu Zhang didn't know what Xu Huizu discussed.

He Fu said, "What is the cost of clothing required? Tell your aunt that you can do it."

"Sister-in-law Xie took care of him." Madam Xu said with her head down quickly.

He Fu sighed and walked out of the living room. Madam Xu was originally a princess, but now she looks so depressed that she really made him feel mixed when she sees it...

Before the dinner was ready, He Fu walked into the study and sat down. He didn't write or read, so he sat there thinking about things.

He Fu had thought by chance that Xu Zhang might be able to use his own power... After all, the old general Jianwen is planning to recover, and there is a chance!

Today, Xu Huizu, He Fu, and Wu Gao, three Dukes and Queens of the Five Army, talked about the country, the country, military affairs, and some of the next round of major battles in the fight against the rebellion. But He Fu has already picked out the most critical points from the grand topic.

Who will serve as the commander-in-chief to assist Guizhou?

...There can be a difference between the nobles and generals in the court, namely "the heroes of Jingnan" and "the heroes of founding the country".

Former Jianwen generals like Xu Huizu, Wu Gao, He Fu, etc., who were able to be a prince, not because of their loyalty to Jianwen, but had already risen in the Hongwu Dynasty and could be classified as "founding heroes"; some of them followed the Taizu to fight, while some of them were their fathers fighting for the Taizu.

Those of Qiu Fu and Zhang Fu were nothing in the past. They could gain power all by seeking the throne for Emperor Taizong, so they were called "the hero of Jingnan".

Many people have died among the heroes of Jingnan, and most of the younger generations have not yet grown up; Zhang Yu's son Zhang Fu is the most favored general. Zhang Fu's meaning is not to be a general on the battlefield in Guizhou, but to be a "General Pinghan" and to command the military and political affairs of several southwest provinces!

Zhang Fu is the military general with the greatest opportunity. He is not only an important general of the King of Yan, but also took the lead in the dispute between the sons of Taizong. He was born and loyal, and he made great achievements in Annan. He performed well and had great ability...

As for the founding heroes, due to the death of Emperor Taizong, the affairs of the old party of the Qing Dynasty, and with the help of Empress Renxiao before his death, Xu Huizu gradually came out of the cage. However, their vitality was still far from recovering, so it was impossible to ascend to the sky and compete with the "Jingnan heroes" in one step.

Now He Fu understood the intention of the old party. Xu Huizu wanted to first oppose Zhang Fu's proposal to "suspend the decisive battle and siege the southwest", and to win Xu Huizu's own strategy of "suspending Guizhou and winning the southwest" was recognized by the court; then he tried to make the old party nobles serve as generals who rushed to Guizhou.

Once the old party nobles have achieved great contributions to real swords and guns in the fight against the rebellion, the old people will come back and return to the center of the court's decision-making, then it will no longer be a luxury!

It is not feasible for Xu Huizu to make money by himself. His identity is too concerned, just as he said, "This proposal is not feasible, and the court officials will definitely not accept it." So Wu Gao and He Fuyi are the best choice.

The two of them had long been granted titles, with both status and prestige, and had the ability to lead a large army through many battles. They surrendered early and survived the Qing Dynasty in Yonglechu, and would not be a stubborn enemy that threatened the King of Yan lineage, but were those who could become loyal ministers of the court again, otherwise they would have died long ago.

Xu Huizu seemed to be more inclined to let He Fu lead his troops. This first step requires caution. He Fu had at least been a relative with King Zhao for a while, and was more likely to be accepted by the civil and military officials of the King of Yan's mansion.

...He Fu is now frowning, thinking for a long time, wandering around. Because he knows that he is not that simple, there are some inside stories that even Xu Huizu doesn't know!

His younger brother He Lu was captured on the spot by the King of Han in Yunnan as a close servant who protected Jianwen and his son! Moreover, in order not to be exposed, He Fu also wrote letters with the King of Han, which were all handles... and there was also a relationship that even the King of Han did not know. He Fu even felt that the situation was complicated.

So among the old generals of Jianwen, He Fu, who seemed to be closest to the King of Yan lineage, was actually the most unreliable person!

He led his troops to fight against the King of Han. If he wins, can the King of Han not revenge on him? If he deliberately loses his troops, can the court spare him?

Therefore, when Xu Huizu and others were considering how to return to the court and how to achieve military achievements, He Fu was considering how to protect himself and how to survive to the end. Everyone’s foothold was not the same.

He Fu thought hard and gradually clarified the priorities of the matter.

The officialdom is like a battlefield, and it is not necessary to move forward bravely. When the situation is forced, retreating is a necessary choice! The situation is still unclear, and He Fu feels that he jumped out too early, which will put himself in the forefront of the knife. It is better to take a step back and stabilize first.

Of course, He Fu hoped that the King of Han would win in the end. In this way, if the general situation was settled, he would be sure to win and there would be no danger at all.

On the contrary, if the court successfully suppresses the rebellion, even if He Fu keeps silent, if the King of Han goes crazy and exposes him before he dies, everything will be over! The situation behind is dangerous, and life and death are all based on the King of Han.

He Fu already knew how to cleverly let Xu Huizu give up the idea of ​​opposing him. He remembered a small thing a few years ago and was ready to use it at that time.

...After He Fu went to the study, when King Zhao's abandoned wife, Mrs. Xu, talked too much when she saw her aunt. After all, the son-in-law was a man, and there was another floor left. Mrs. Xu and He Fu had nothing to say.

My aunt asked her quietly in the warm room: "Do you don't know how to serve men? King Zhao doesn't want to get close to you?"

Madam Xu said aggrievedly: "It's not true! I have a good relationship with the prince. The prince is not very close to others and often has sex with me. The prince still praises me by the pillow, saying that although I am petite, it is beautiful. He also said that he likes to look at my expression and listen to my voice, but no one can compare to others. He feels like a majestic real man."

The aunt spitted, her face turned red, and she said, "You really dare to say it!"

Madam Xu was embarrassed to say, "In this boudoir, I only dare to say to my aunt. The prince is good at everything, but he is too ruthless. He just wants to marry a woman from the Mu family, and thinks that the other person has a higher status. He turns his back and ignores the kindness of the couple for several years!"

The aunt said: "Marriage is not something that King Zhao can decide."

Madam Xu sighed resentfully: "I feel that we are just like the goods in the market. If we are useful, we will sell them. If we are useless, we will throw them away. If we are useless, we will throw them away. Alas!"

The aunt comforted her kind words: "It depends on who she is with..."

Madam Xu lowered her head and was only worried about herself.

The aunt said seriously again: "As long as your father can get out of the predicament and have a place in the court, don't worry too much. Look at my aunt, she is also a man who has married once, can she marry your son-in-law again? He is also a marquis."

But Madam Xu couldn't get out of depression and depression. She murmured: "This world is so boring. I really want to become a monk. Or maybe I can find a poor and humble young man to treat me well."
