MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 380 Fu Yanhui (Xiaoxiang ticket will be updated)
Chapter 380 Fu Yanhui (Xiaoxiang ticket added)
Chancellor Guo is worthy of being a person who has been deeply involved in the court. Since he wants the emperor to agree, then the most important thing is to attack the root cause. The skill of practicing navy is not painful, but it may not be able to impress the emperor.
It’s hard to talk about the tax inspection. What was recovered was all real money, and it was Gu Shaoyu who offended others outside. It had nothing to do with him, a benevolent emperor!
Thinking of this, the prince also readily agreed.
Then Guo Xiang turned to Gu Shaoyu and gave instructions.
"When Shao Yu goes this time, mourning for your grandmother is naturally the top priority. After His Majesty agrees, the 50,000 Tiger and Ben troops will naturally go south. However, this thorough investigation of sea and canal transportation tax evasion is also full of dangers. Yizhou is the first to bear the brunt. It’s a tough nut to crack, so be careful.”
Yizhou, that is Princess Yuehua’s territory.
It is very close to Jinling City. If the tax evasion of sea and canal transportation is really inseparable from it, then the 50,000 tiger soldiers will be a hard thorn in her heart.
And Princess Yuehua will not be the only one. She is involved in so many things that it is impossible to imagine.
But for their future plans, Gu Shaoyu naturally wanted to not be afraid of dangers, so he opened his mouth and spoke.
"Yizhou will not be the first or the last to crack a hard bone. The general will be willing to go through fire and water for the sake of the crown prince, and he will not hesitate to do so!"
He was a person that the prince relied on very much, so after hearing this, the prince also gained a lot of trust.
After the three people discussed the countermeasures, Gu Shaoyu called the lieutenants.
He told the news that his grandmother had passed away and that he was going back to Jinling City for the funeral. After they learned about it, they were all shocked. However, hearing that it was an accident, they could only lament that things are unpredictable.
Wei Lun and Zheng Deli, who were ordered to do so at the critical moment, were both serious at the moment and immediately expressed their opinions.
“General, don’t worry. The two generals will definitely guard the Hu and Ben army, and we will never let anyone else get involved.”
They were following Gu Shaoyu, and the person following their orders was His Highness the Crown Prince.
Although they don't necessarily have a clear understanding of the situation in the DPRK, they know that during the period of General Ding You, there will rarely be anyone who has ideas about the Huben Army, so they will never take it lightly.
After receiving affirmative answers from the two of them, Gu Shaoyu felt relieved.
Finally, after arranging everything, he led the people towards Jinling City in a familiar way.
As for the prince and Prime Minister Guo, they naturally returned to Sui'an City.
Gu Shaoyu and others were less than ten miles away on horseback when Wei Taiwei in the city got the news and hurriedly sent it to the fourth prince's house.
Speaking of the fact that the Wei family took refuge with the fourth prince, it happened some time ago.
Wei Jialian is now the legitimate fourth prince's concubine. Although people outside have some objections to this, who dares to say no to the imperial concubine's marriage decree that the imperial concubine personally requested from His Majesty?
Thus, the Wei family got an opportunity to achieve great success and the whole family flew into the sky, and the fourth prince also got a strong help, which can be regarded as mutually beneficial.
In this mutual benefit, Wei Jialian and the Fourth Prince had a rare real feeling. Therefore, with her mediating, the entire Wei family, even Prince Fu's Palace and Duke Guo's Palace, all gravitated towards the Fourth Prince's Palace. .
Therefore, during this period, the situation in the DPRK also gradually moved from the strong position of the crown prince to the weakness of the four princes, to a draw. Although it was not yet to the point where it could overwhelm the crown prince, it did not stop there. Therefore, both Dong Gong and Prime Minister Guo showed signs of pressure, and the four princes also had a chance to show off.
The Fourth Prince's Mansion, in the study.
When the fourth prince heard the news, he was shocked at first, and then became a little excited. He looked at Wei Taiwei and Shang Qilang opposite and said.
"This is a great thing. Gu Shaoyu won't be able to come back for at least a year and a half after leaving. The tiger and benign army is leaderless. Maybe we can arrange for our people to go in."
He has long wanted to have meat and bones like the Huben Army, but the reason why he didn't take action before was simply because he couldn't find the opportunity. Even though he was running around, he still firmly held the real power of the Huben Army. in hand.
Ding Dingyou's period is different, it is to completely step down from all positions.
This is naturally a great opportunity, but it is a pity that after hearing what he said, Wei Taiwei did not take it seriously and said it clearly at a glance.
"Some of the people in the Huben Army have been there since the time of Gu Yangang (Old Marshal Gu), and some have grown up with Gu Shaoyu. I don't know what our people will do after they leave, so we might as well just do it. As it is now, at least we are together and have a clear goal, but we have to shift our minds and focus more on the Gyeonggi Division."
The main people in charge of the Gyeonggi Department are Wei Mingxian and Concubine Liu's father. They are both from the Fourth Prince's side, so the arrangement will naturally be much more convenient.
The most advantageous thing is that it takes two hours to ride a horse to reach the main camp of the Huben Army from Sui'an City, but the people from the Gyeonggi Division are rooted in the imperial city, so they can talk about it.
The most important thing in this war is to gain the upper hand. This alone gives them a good chance.
Thinking of this, the fourth prince also felt that what Taiwei Wei said was true, so he hurriedly said.
“Your Majesty Taiwei is right! There were several vacancies in the Gyeonggi Division before, but it’s a pity that I don’t have any capable young generals around me, otherwise I could have been promoted to the top.”
Seeing this, Wei Taiwei told the purpose of today's visit.
I saw him clapping his hands, and soon someone knocked on the door from outside and came in. He looked tall and mighty, and his whole body exuded an indescribable whiteness. The most important thing was that he had given birth to a pair of twins that would make people sick. Cold eyes.
As soon as he came in, he scanned the people present and felt that the atmosphere was frozen, and then he said to the fourth prince.
“Fu Yanhui, a grassroots man, has met the fourth prince.”
Although he had his hands clasped in his fists, he did not show any haughtiness at all. His whole person exuded a determined temperament, and even a hint of majesty that others did not have.
“Wei Taiwei, this is...”
"This is an orphan that the old minister rescued in Shuzhou many years ago. His parents and clan members were all killed at the hands of bandits. The old minister saw that he was pitiful, so he sent him to Qingcheng Mountain to learn his skills from a Taoist immortal. Unexpectedly, he became a master a few days ago. He came up north to look for me, saying that the master's soul had returned to the mountains, so he thought of coming here to seek refuge."
"So I took him in as a caretaker at home. Who knew that he was quite capable? Not only was he good at both civil and military skills, but he was also proficient in the art of war and formation. With such a talent, I thought it would be a pity to keep him at home. , I specially brought it to the fourth prince today, if possible, we can arrange for him to join the Gyeonggi Division, and we will start slowly."
