Chapter 52 Tea Talk in West Garden

Wei Fufeng waited outside the city for three days, ready to deal with possible mutinies in the city at any time.

The result was very peaceful, and my grandfather successfully incorporated all the troops.

The other five counties under the jurisdiction of Jinzhou also reported that the 200 regiments were issued to each other, and the "old governor" who issued military orders was gone, so naturally the new governor was assigned to it.

My grandfather forced arriving in Yinghu Town Fort and obtained 600 troops and more than 30,000 stones of grain reserves. The reorganized military strength was 4,200, of which 200 were prison guards, and the spearmen of the Fufeng Army were not included.

My grandfather wrote a letter and asked Wei Fufeng to come into the city to see him. Wei Fufeng took the car he came to pick him up and went to the city.

Since his grandfather came forward, Wei Fufeng retired from the Jinzhou incident, which was considered to have reached a tacit understanding with his grandfather. Wei Fufeng was concerned about his relatives' involvement in his ruling territory.

The car went straight to Xiyuan. Wei Fufeng got out of the car and saw that the guards in Xiyuan were all his Fufeng army spearmen. Lu Tao, who was promoted to a military envoy, stood outside the gate of Xiyuan and saw Wei Fufeng saluting respectfully.

Wei Fufeng smiled and nodded, walked past and entered the West Garden. Not long ago, Lu Tao recommended fourteen prisoners to him, one of whom was extremely brave.

The fourteen prisoners were imprisoned in the county jail. Wei Fufeng went to meet and recruit him, and was surrendered. They were all introduced to his father as a prison guard.

When I entered the West Garden, I took the tour guide to him. The birds sang and the flowers were fragrant and the scenery was pleasant. It was a good place to nourish my heart.

When we walked to a hill, Wei Fufeng saw four prison guards standing, including Tongshan.

Wei Fufeng smiled and nodded to the four guards, and the four guards silently clasped their fists and saluted.

Wei Fufeng walked past the stone path up the hill and arrived at a pavilion on the top of the hill.

There is a table in the pavilion and pavilion, and grandfather and father sit opposite each other to taste tea.

Wei Fufeng walked in and worshiped respectfully: "Grandson greets grandfather."

Grandfather smiled and nodded, saying, "Here you come, you can see the scene here."

Wei Fufeng nodded and looked around, but saw a vast area, standing on the top of the hills, with white fog floating near, and the rolling eastward river can be seen from afar. On the Han River, white gulls fly in groups, sails stand in a row, and even further away are the mountains.

"Grandfather, although here is in the city, he can see the beautiful mountains and rivers." Wei Fufeng replied in a whisper.

"Well, sit down." Grandfather said happily.

Wei Fufeng sat opposite his grandfather, picked up a pot and poured tea, and heard his grandfather say gently: "The Feng Shui in Jinzhou is very good. If I can have a good end, I will be buried in Jinzhou."

Wei Fufeng was stunned, and Wei Xuan said unexpectedly: "My father, you should enter the ancestral tomb in a hundred years."

Grandfather shook his head and said, "Don't you think that being a father should become the founder?"

Wei Xuan's lips moved and said, "My father is qualified to be the founder, but he will inevitably have a crack with the Jingzhao lineage."

"I'm so humble, I've been the father for so many years, but I've been supported by Jingzhao. We have long been divided from the main branch. Now we have gained power for our father. Should we tolerate the Jingzhao lineage being pointed and stumbled. If we have a good end in the future, we will be the founder of the Wei family in Jinzhou?" Grandfather scolded.

"Yes, my son knows his mistake." Wei Xuan nodded quickly.

Wei Fufeng smiled bitterly after hearing this. His grandfather actually had concerns about rejecting the Lord's family, and was worried that the Lord's family would interfere with the rule of Jinzhou. That kind of concern was not false. The Lord's family could completely bring people to work in Jinzhou, such as arranging military positions such as generals.

Wei Xuan hesitated for a moment and said, "My father said he should rely on Chang'an Wei family."

Grandfather frowned slightly and said, "Is Wei's only one family in Jingzhao? And what he said about support refers to the entire Chang'an.

The nobles, because we have the power and can protect the interests of many nobles, the nobles are willing to choose to support them."

Wei Xuan nodded gently, and his grandfather whispered again: "Do you know what is a scattered person?"

"The boy knows." Wei Xuan replied.

"You know, but I failed to understand the true meaning of that sentence. We occupied Jinzhou and had thousands of troops. In terms of momentum, we would pose a threat to the Sect Master of Jingzhao, and we were worried that we would turn against each other and take away the clan power and authority that belonged to him." Grandfather explained whispered.

Wei Xuan was stunned, and his grandfather shook his head and said, "You are not in his position, and you don't know the danger."

"My son is stupid." Wei Xuan said in panic.

Grandfather waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's talk about the serious business."

Then he looked at Wei Fufeng and said gently: "Fufeng, Jinzhou is basically stable, your military strength can go back to Lantian County."

Wei Fufeng nodded and said, "Grandson goes back and sets off."

Grandfather smiled and said, "Grandfather has something to do. He needs your military force to escort 3,000 stones of grain to Chang'an. Grandfather asked your fifth uncle to lead 300 regiments to practice and go to Chang'an together."

Wei Fufeng nodded and said, "You can only use the spearmen here, and the other military forces are eye-catching."

The grandfather nodded with satisfaction and said, "The grandfather has already written to the court to describe the process of seizing Jinzhou, and to provide food to support the emperor in oppressing Li Keyong. He also asked the emperor to choose a lord clan relative to inherit the county duke's mansion."

Wei Fufeng nodded, and Wei Xuan suddenly said: "My father, will it be a constraint on us if the royal family inherits the county magistrate's mansion?"

Grandfather turned his head and said gently: "Let the emperor choose his relatives to inherit the county magistrate's mansion, it is a big disadvantage for us. First, it is to gain the emperor's trust, second, it can show the legitimacy of our entry into Jinzhou, third, it can make Yang Fugong have some concerns and dare not instruct his subordinates to attack Jinzhou in the short term, because Yang Fugong was in Chang'an and belonged to the emperor's slave."

Wei Xuan nodded, and his grandfather said again: "As for the constraints, the governor who is in charge of military affairs for his father, the clan came to Jinzhou, and he was just a nobleman with so-called huge wealth. Moreover, he was new to him and could not get the support of the original family soldiers of the county government."

Wei Xuan nodded, and his grandfather said again: "For my father, Erlang has appointed him as the judge. If you cooperate with him to organize the land of the county and the government, we must leave at least 30%."

Wei Xuan nodded and responded, and suddenly Wei Fufeng said, "Grandfather, grandson has suggestions."

"Oh, you said." Grandfather turned his head and replied.

Wei Fufeng said: "Just this time, my grandfather mentioned the family soldiers. According to grandson's subordinates, the family soldiers of the county duke's mansion are very powerful. Grandson suggested that it is best to release them out of the city. It is not advisable to keep them in the city in the near future, so that those family soldiers can suppress the bandits."

Grandfather nodded and said, "Grandfather has known the soldiers of the County Duke's Mansion, and most of them have families. If they are released from the city, they are not afraid of their rebellion."

"Sun'er also suggested that it is best not to let the strong men in Shangzhou be their family soldiers, because warriors admire the strong, despise the weak, and value the weak, which makes it difficult for the family soldiers to return to their hearts." Wei Fufeng said again.

"You mean, you should value the agile people among the family soldiers." said grandfather.

"Yes, my grandson recommends here that the four guards at the foot of the mountain can all become leaders of hundreds of soldiers, and they can lead troops to suppress bandits, and then reward them with official positions based on their merits. The official positions they obtained for their merits can be cherished and then be grateful for their grandfather's value." Wei Fufeng said.

Grandfather nodded and said, "Since you recommend it, let them lead the troops to suppress the bandits."

"Please give them to me by my grandfather." Wei Fufeng said respectfully

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

.

"Okay, let them come up." Grandfather nodded.

Wei Fufeng got up and went out, and asked the group guarding the hills to call him. He went back to the pavilion and sat down.

After a while, the four guards came outside the pavilion and saluted respectfully together, but did not speak.

My grandfather looked out and said, "The grandson of our army said that you are brave and agile. I recommend you to lead the troops to suppress the bandits. You are willing to protect the peace of the side, suppress the bandits and make contributions, and become military officers."

The four guards were surprised and looked at Wei Fufeng's back together. Soon, the guard Tian Wen replied respectfully: "I am willing to serve the envoy."

Then the other three responded, and the grandfather said, "Okay, you are still affiliated with the county government. Our army will give you the military post of the lieutenant, each leading 100 troops to suppress the bandits, and then reward them after making contributions."

"Thank you for your gift, Lord Lord." The guards thanked.

Wei Fufeng suddenly turned around and said, "Remember, the purpose of suppressing bandits is to protect the peace of the country. If you take the opportunity to harm the people, you will have nothing."

"I don't dare." The four guards responded respectfully with uneven responses.

Wei Fufeng turned around and picked up the bowl to drink tea. His grandfather waved his hand and said, "You guys go down and wait."

The four guards respectfully retreated and left and returned to the hillside. Wei Fufeng then stood up and said respectfully: "I wonder if my grandfather has any instructions?"

"No, let's go, it's going well." Grandfather said gently.

Wei Fufeng said respectfully to Wei Xuan again: "Sir, the child is gone."

Wei Xuan hesitated and said, "You can let your subordinates lead the army when the Hedong Expedition."

Wei Fufeng shook his head and said, "Dad, sometimes it is very important to walk with his subordinates."

Wei Xuan was slightly stunned, and then said sadly: "You go."

"Boy left." Wei Fufeng said respectfully, turning around and leaving.

Looking at Wei Fufeng's departure back, grandfather sighed: "Jin Lin is not an object in the pool. When he encounters the wind and clouds turning into a flying dragon, it's a pity that I'm old."

Wei Xuan hurriedly said, "My father is walking as fast as he is not old."

Grandfather smiled and stood up to look at the Han River in the distance. Wei Xuan stood up and looked at the distance.

After a while, my father said, "Juro, you said it right. Many heroes have become dragons for their father's age."

Wei Xuan didn't think much about it and nodded, "What my father said is that you are not old."

Grandfather smiled and said, "Go back and arrange military force for your father. You go back and deal with the matters of the fields. Erlang is the main thing. Don't argue."

"The second brother is good at financial affairs, and the child doesn't talk much." Wei Xuan replied.

......

Wei Fufeng left the county town and returned to the woods to wait.

A moment later, Lu Tao led the Fufeng Army's spearmen to the outside of the woods.

Wei Fufeng ordered the army in Linzhong to return to Lantian County. He led the spearmen to Yinghu Town Fort. When he arrived at Yinghu Town Fort, the grain truck was already waiting outside.

"Ha, Fufeng, you are here, let's go." When the fifth uncle saw Wei Fufeng, he spoke cheerfully. In fact, he was the third brother, and Wei Zhaodu's son was sorted for Goro.

"Fifth Uncle." Wei Fufeng greeted him with a smile and then set off.

Wei Fufeng was not close to his fifth uncle, and he rarely met. He only knew that his fifth uncle often traveled abroad.

The second uncle was the leader of business, the eighth uncle worked as a clerk in the Luonan County government under Shangzhou, the ninth uncle died, the tenth uncle was his father, the twelfth uncle heard that he was working in Chang'an, and the fourteenth uncle was practicing martial arts and was unemployed.
