Chapter 345 Meet with Dongchuan Army
Linghu Wan'er was silent, took a few steps, and whispered: "Master, we are suspicious of each other."
Wei Fufeng whispered: "The warmth you miss comes from the pure love between husband and wife. Now, we, in metaphor, have more relationships between king and ministers, just like me and Yang He.
After Yang He took office in Fujian, I visited Fujian and clearly felt Yang He's cautiousness and less casualness.
The reason is simple. Fujian has a difficult governance, and there are many crises that need to be dealt with. The pressure is huge. With the identity of a rank-in officials, I am worried that I am suspicious of him being a big plan to become independent, so when we meet, we feel strange to each other."
Linghu Wan'er nodded, and Wei Fufeng said again: "When you talk about contentment, it is difficult for people to be contented. As the status and power change, the limit of contentment will be continuously improved.
For example, I just wanted to be a rich family who had no worries about food and clothing. After getting the foundation of southern Sichuan, I wanted to win honor and honor. Now I dominate the southwest and have thought about whether one day I will enter the Central Plains and rule the world."
Linghu Wan'er whispered: "Master, I am a woman. Women like Wu Zetian are rare. I don't have the ability and ambition."
Wei Fufeng whispered: "Wu Zetian also started out as a small talented man. People's ambitions change with their possession. As a king, I must take measures to curb the breeding of ambitions.
You over-interpret my normal methods and think that I don't trust you, but because of the decentralization of supervision, our suspicion can be minimized."
Linghu Wan'er whispered softly: "I am a mediocre person who disturbs me."
Wei Fufeng smiled and said, "It's not considered a mediocre person's disturbance. It's a normal mentality of distress. I know you please me, and I'm willing to accept it. We have a close heart to each other."
Linghu Wan'er smiled and nodded, and said gently: "The Empress Nanzhao and Princess Anhua, whom I wrote to, are all rare beauties. Does the master want to enjoy it?"
Wei Fufeng whispered: "If you want to enjoy it, you can't do whatever you want. Whether you accept the Empress of Nanzhao depends on whether the Duan of Nanzhao is worthy of winning. If you are familiar with the situation, I will listen to you."
Linghu Wan'er whispered: "The reality is that the Nanzhao nobles are not as important as they imagined, and at most they are like ordinary powerful people in Shu."
Wei Fufeng nodded, and Linghu Wan'er said again: "Zhao Yang family Duan family has not yet expressed surrender."
Wei Fufeng whispered: "The mentality is on the lookout, hostile, and maybe waiting for the price to be sold, waiting for us to recruit."
Linghu Wan'er nodded and whispered: "More than ten concubines of the Emperor Nanzhao come from more than ten more tribes that are stronger. Should the master stay?"
Wei Fufeng shook his head and said, "If marriage is useful, why should Emperor Nanzhao be defeated by powerful officials? Let them go."
Linghu Wan'er whispered: "After all, the Duan family, the Zhao family, Yang family, is worthy of marriage."
Wei Fufeng whispered: "I took the initiative to marry, and at the cost of using the so-called nobles as officials, repeating the same mistakes as the powerful ministers in Nanzhao, and let's talk about how to locate a married woman."
Linghu Wan'er smiled and said, "You are the emperor, and you are the three thousand beauties in the harem."
Wei Fufeng shook his head and smiled: "There may be one day to be an emperor in this life. Now I dare not think or do it."
Linghu Wan'er nodded, and Wei Fufeng asked again: "Does Emperor Nanzhao have any clothes?"
Linghu Wan'er was surprised and replied: "The relics of Emperor Nanzhao should be collected by Empress Nanzhao."
Wei Fufeng whispered: "If you have it, take it. I want to follow the customs and reduce the hostility of the barbarians."
Linghu Wan'er nodded, but asked again: "Will the master and the barbarians provoke him?"

Do the Han people criticize and accuse?"
Wei Fufeng whispered: "In order to have a meal, literati in troubled times have no leisure to sip. I don't care about the criticism decades later."
Linghu Wan'er said, "I'll ask now."
......
After Linghu Wan'er's return, Wei Fufeng officially met with civil and military officials.
The chief general of the Dongchuan Army, dozens of generals, had to be ordered to arrive at the palace to meet, and hundreds of generals gathered outside the Golden Palace.
The entire palace was well-defended, and the two thousand guards who followed Wei Fufeng to Erhai Lake were all elite armored soldiers.
Five hundred strong iron armored swords and shield soldiers, five hundred armored spearmen, five hundred leather armored archers, and five hundred leather armored crossbow soldiers wearing long swords.
When the generals of the Dongchuan Army saw him, they felt awe.
In fact, a few days after Wei Fufeng arrived, the heads of the Dongchuan Army gathered to discuss secretly, and the Central Army envoys launched a surprise attack and occupied Erhai Lake.
However, the reason is opposed by most generals is simple and the chance of winning is very small. In a foreign country, the consequence of both sides being defeated is destruction.
In addition, without the instruction of the Dongchuan Army Jiedushi, the army cannot be good.
Wei Fufeng said a few words intimately, then ordered a banquet and brought in large wooden tables.
The officers were unexpectedly brief and took the initiative to place tables and chairs, and the atmosphere changed from seriousness to lively.
"Okay, you are all heroes who are enterprising Erhai Lake. I will never forget the merits. Today I will drink and celebrate the merits. It's okay to get drunk, drink it." Wei Fufeng raised his glass and smiled casually, and slapped it all over again.
Sitting down to eat food, the people at the same table with him were all civil servants, plus Linghu Wan'er.
The banquet was quite enjoyable. Many generals and officials drank too much and were serious about each other, laughing, shouting, and cursing. They were full of ugly things, but they also filled with a casual atmosphere of harmony.
The banquet ended, and Wei Fufeng was toasted by some drunk generals and became 70% drunk.
When they returned to the harem, the women were concerned about sobering up soup. Wei Fufeng drank it and lie down high to rest and rest.
"Mudan Baihe, you guys go to work." Wei Fufeng said gently, and Mudan Baihe left.
Linghu Wan'er sat on the wooden couch and asked with concern: "Are you better, lord?"
Wei Fufeng smiled and said, "It's just that I'm drunk too much, it's okay."
Linghu Wan'er nodded, Wei Fufeng looked at Li Nu and called out: "Li Nu."
Li Nu approached the wooden couch and responded respectfully: "Prince Prince."
Wei Fufeng whispered: "Linu, Xiaoxue and I share weal and woe. I am afraid that she will be angry. You and I really can't be together."
Li Nu stared gently and smiled: "I am not with the prince. I like dancing and would rather stay in Erhai Palace as a female slave."
Wei Fufeng whispered: "Why do you have to do it?"
Li Nu said softly: "The wild and wild mountain flowers in Erhai Lake are deeply rooted in my heart. I can't be the same as before."
Wei Fufeng turned his head and looked up, whispering lazy: "You can do whatever you want, and you can't stand the loneliness in the palace. Tell Wan'er, Wan'er will find you a high-ranking official with good character."
Li Nu said nothing, and Wei Fufeng said whispered again: "Since I started my career in southern Sichuan, I have gradually claimed to be Cao Cao. The desires in my heart are messy. Sometimes I think that I am a descendant of the Wei family. I should abide by etiquette and law and cherish my reputation. Sometimes I am like Cao Cao, but I want to be unruly and do my own things."
Linghu Wan'er whispered: "Master, it's not wrong to be a human being. Just distinguish regional customs.
In metaphor, inside and outside the house, the Han people are outside the house and need to be hypocritical.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The clothes are neatly dressed, and the areas of Liaoren and Erhai are inside the houses, with loose clothes and hair, and you don’t need to wear masks to live.”
Wei Fufeng smiled and said, "You can still talk."
Linghu Wan'er smiled and said, "It is also a metaphorical saying that if the master met officials today, if he acted solemnly, the consequences would be disgusting. The generals were all rough people and kept talking about the truth. They wanted to shut up when they were hit."
Wei Fufeng smiled, raised his hand and pulled it, and Linghu Wan'er leaned against Wei Fufeng.
Wei Fufeng held his beloved concubine with tenderness, drunkenness and indulgence, and unruly heart.
......
The next day, Wei Fufeng held his son Wei Wenzhu and was fishing for leisure, with peony accompanying him.
After Wei Fufeng was waiting for the local leaders to gather and marry Meng Yunu, he would go north to the Jianchuan Jiedu area, meet the cavalry, and return to Bashu.
Just as he was leisurely, Bai He suddenly rushed over and reported: "The prince, the two commanders of the Dongchuan Army, have someone come to communicate."
Wei Fufeng was unexpectedly, and Mudan took the initiative to take Wei Wenzhu away.
Wei Fufeng strode away and arrived at the Golden Palace and saw two ordinary soldiers.
When the two soldiers saw Wei Fufeng, they saluted respectfully.
"Who are you?" Wei Fufeng stopped and kept his distance and asked gently.
"Prince Prince, I am the personal soldier of Liu Jun's military commander, and he is the personal soldier of Baofan's military commander. We are ordered to ask the prince, if he joins the prince, what can the prince give?" A square-faced soldier spoke in a blunt manner.
Wei Fufeng was thinking about whether his first reaction was to be a fraud. If he bought the Dongchuan general and was regarded as a reason for inciting a mutiny, the consequences would be internal fighting.
"You are here too abruptly, which surprised me." Wei Fufeng smiled.
"Mr. Prince, my elders are convinced that the prince is generous and disappointed, and I am disappointed in my heart. If I continue to waste this, I will be confused in the future. Therefore, I will come to ask the prince for the benefits." The soldier explained.
Another soldier suddenly said, "My Lord has a deep friendship with Lord Pang Yu."
Pang Yu? The first time the Dongchuan Army invaded southern Sichuan, was defeated and captured. Wei Fufeng was forced to use Pang Yu due to unstable military strength and out of checks and balances.
For so many years, Pang Yu has been serving as the commander of the Shunan Military Office and acted in accordance with the rules. Wei Fufeng was quite satisfied and relieved.
"Did Pang Yu contact your master?" Wei Fufeng asked unexpectedly.
The soldier shook his head and said, "I haven't contacted you for many years. My subordinates mentioned it, just to win the trust of the prince and express sincerity."
Wei Fufeng nodded and looked at the soldiers deeply. He thought it was useful in his initial impression and asked, "Are you literate?"
The soldier was stunned and nodded, "I'm aware of literacy."
Wei Fufeng nodded and said, "You know that if you separate troops and subordinates, you will lose some power. The advantage is that their descendants are hereditary, and there is no need to worry about the need for fear of being unable to withstand the governor.
Many generals fought against the Jiedushi in the feudal towns. Most of the reasons were not that the generals were ambitious to rebel, but that they were afraid of harming the Jiedushi. No one was willing to destroy the family. Once they heard rumors that were not conducive to themselves, they could only take the initiative to survive in a suspicious way."
The two soldiers nodded, and Wei Fufeng said again: "Since the establishment of the Southern Sichuan Army, I, as the governor, still have the title of Fufeng Marquis, and the highest hereditary commander under my jurisdiction.
In fact, the high-ranking officials of the Tang Dynasty were flooded, and a state could also be a military governor. How much does it mean? Some military governors’ official positions are not as powerful as yours.”
