With a suitable explanation and no evidence, Ji Yiren's matter passed quickly.
A few days later, another message came from Beijing, about how Wei Changying had asked Huo Zhaoyu before that his love had been stolen.
After reading only two lines, Wei Changying frowned tightly: "How could Changfeng do it?"
Mrs. Huang was also surprised that Huo Zhaoyu's love-stealing was actually done by Wei Changfeng: "My servant remembers that the Fifth Young Master probably doesn't know the First Young Master Huo."
"When he arrived in the imperial capital, Huo Jiayao had already carried his spirit back to Yunxia County. Where would he have seen him?" Wei Changying felt confused, "What is Changfeng doing?"
The master and the servant looked at each other, and Wei Changying hurriedly continued to read. When he saw that Wei Changfeng did this because of Princess Qingxin's words, Wei Changying's face suddenly turned ugly: "Send off? A chance encounter? Really? Is that so?”
Mrs. Huang also knew that Princess Qingxin was extremely beautiful. Although Wei Changfeng was not the kind of womanizer, he was in the prime of his life, not to mention that Princess Qingxin was not an ordinary beauty... But Wei Huan and Mrs. Song carefully trained her Shouldn't the legitimate grandson who came out be so brainless? So Mr. Huang coughed and suggested: "Madam, look at the bottom and see if there is a reason? The Fifth Young Master should not do this just because of what Princess Qingxin said."
"... He thought that the royal family had returned to Xiliang after seeing her husband, and the Su family was the only one, so he felt uneasy. It just so happened that because of his sixth uncle, he also felt that he should show some respect to the Su family, so he agreed to the matter." I heard that the Chief of Guards Feng did not do this for Princess Qingxin, which made both Wei Changying and Huang relieved.
It's hard to say how long Princess Qingxin can maintain her golden status. For this reason alone, she is definitely not suitable for Wei Changfeng. Besides, although Wei Changying does not dislike Qingxin, his favorable impression is limited - even Princess Qingxin, who is now more sensible, is still far from meeting the requirements of being Yu Yue's legitimate wife.
But she was so good-looking, and Wei Changying had to worry about his younger brother being deceived by her beauty.
"Speaking of which, there is still no news about Uncle Six, and I don't know where he is hiding." Wei Changying thought about what his brother had done, and felt that it was a big deal or a small deal. Anyway, with the backing of the Wei family, Thinking about it, even if the Su family doesn't like this, they can't do anything to Wei Changfeng - as long as anyone in the Su family is awake, they will never fight against the Wei family.
But Huo Zhaoyu is really pitiful, why was he dragged in again
Recalling that he had caused this man to become Princess Anji's consort, and now that he had returned to his hometown to observe mourning, his brother had tricked him... Wei Changying couldn't help but shook his head secretly, thinking that his brother and Huo Zhaoyu were just like in the previous life. Enemies, intentionally or unintentionally, are always trying to trick him...
Back then, she confusedly sold Huo Zhaoyu to Princess Anji, although it was said that the two of them had been living well since they got married. But now that the Wei Dynasty is about to fall, it is hard to say what this marriage will bring to Huo Zhaoyu in the future. Wei Changying did not intend to harm Huo Zhaoyu back then, but now he feels very embarrassed when he thinks about it.
So she quickly found another topic to change the topic, "There are so many people looking for it, and they have searched Panzhou several times. How come they can't find it?"
Huang also felt very strange: "Not only the Su family is looking for it, but the Shen family of the Wei family is also looking. Even if I am afraid that the Su family will suffer the most, at least let a reliable person send a message! When our master is still in the imperial capital , can you still send someone to respond? "
"Could it be..." Wei Changying felt that his uncle was cunning and deep. Even if he had no power, he would not easily get into trouble with his scheming. However, since there has been no news for a long time, it was hard to say, "Something happened?"
"Master Wei Liu has always been smart..." Huang hesitated for a moment before saying.
Wei Changying thought of Song Zaishui's previous entrustment and sighed: "I hope it's not like this, otherwise Cousin Song and Cousin Song will have regrets throughout their lives!"
"Captain Mo didn't make any move either. He might be with Mr. Wei Liu." Huang thought for a moment and said, "If that's the case, it's not easy for them to cause trouble if they are both civilized and military. Besides, the Su family is about to destroy the entire Panzhou." If something happens, how can there be no news? My servant thought, could they have left Panzhou? "
Wei Changying thought for a while and said: "This is also possible. It's just that Uncle Liu is too capable. He can actually walk in an unfamiliar place without leaving any traces." He frowned again, "If it had already been After leaving Panzhou, even if I can’t go back to Fengzhou in a circle, it’s time to send a letter... But I am on the road now, and if I want to know about it from my grandparents, I may not have time to write to me. "
Huang smiled and comforted her: "If you wait a few days at most, there will definitely be news."
After a few days like this, there was still no news about the whereabouts of Wei Xinyong and Mo Binwei, but the news that the Rong troops had successively attacked the eleven cities of Donghu arrived first!
"How could the Donghu army be so helpless?" Although they were on their way back to Xiliang, escorted by another 120,000 rear troops, far away from the battlefield, the guard commander Ying was still shocked when he saw it, "Although he was defeated last time , but isn’t it because of the people of Shinshu? Why can’t we see Rongren anymore after that defeat?”
The spy who delivered the letter reported through the car curtain: "As I replied to my wife, I heard that the Donghu Army was also affected by the struggle for power in Ranli Hall."
"Liu Bozhao and Liu Xixun..." Wei Changying frowned, thought for a moment and asked, "Then what is the situation now? Eleven cities were occupied by the Rong, and even Donghu Diguang has lost less than half. Can the remaining Liu family hold on?"
The spy muttered: "It's hard to say, otherwise the Liu family wouldn't have desperately urged the Qingzhou Army to leave overnight!"
"The Qingzhou Army set off overnight? How many people did they leave?" Guard Chief Ying asked hurriedly.
"According to our estimates, it should be around 200,000, but according to the Rong people, it is 500,000."
Since ancient times, it has been common practice to lie and overreport the number of troops in battles to intimidate the enemy. Wei Changying knew this, so he didn't think the Su family was talking too much. He just felt a little worried and asked Shi Man'er to come over and add some words.
Shi Man'er understood, lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage. He came back after a while and whispered: "Madam, the spies outside said that there are some rumors in the imperial capital to slander the master. But not many... Now I am more worried that the Liu family will not be able to resist it. Stay, the Rong people came to the imperial capital again."
"These people have suffered great losses at the hands of the Rong people, and now they are very afraid." Wei Changying secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although Shen Zangfeng's reason for returning to Xiliang was to resist the aliens - but it was such a coincidence that he left. It is inevitable to be accused of being afraid of soldiers.
In his heart, Chief Wei Yingsi did not want his husband's helpless act to be slandered too much.
"If the Liu family really can't hold on, the fall of the imperial capital will definitely happen again. Fortunately, it happened once, and this time the Rong people can't quietly surround the imperial capital like last time... In addition, I asked my subordinates to I reminded Cousin Song two days after I left, and I personally told Duanmu Xinmiao before I left... Isn't this response as tragic as last time?" Wei Changying rubbed his brows and sent the Shen family away. The spy called one of his dowry guards, "Go back to the imperial capital, find Changfeng, and tell him that there is nothing urgent. Go back to Fengzhou as soon as possible! Don't stay in the imperial capital any longer!"
She originally persuaded Wei Changfeng to return to Fengzhou before leaving, but Wei Changfeng thought that as soon as he arrived in the imperial capital, he was summoned and given an official position by Emperor Wei, and people below said that he relied on Shen Zangfeng, his brother-in-law.
Now that his sister and brother-in-law left, he returned to his hometown. It seemed that he was completely taking care of the Shen family and could not afford the situation, so he decided to stay in the imperial capital.
Wei Changying felt that because this younger brother would inherit the Wei family in the future, after hearing these words, Wei Changfeng felt that Wei Changfeng could not leave immediately after he left. But the situation in the north is not peaceful at the moment. Although he knows that the imperial capital is safe for the time being, Wei Changying is still worried about his brother, fearing that he will be careless and leave late.
So I decided to send someone back to urge him. How can face and reputation be compared with life? What's more, Wei Changfeng is young, so he doesn't have to worry about not having the chance to support his family in the future.
News of the Liu family's defeat spread among the troops, and everyone was very surprised at the extent and speed of the Donghu army's defeat.
Even Shen Lianshi, who was recovering from his injuries, knew it. Because of the differences between men and women, he couldn't let Captain Ying get into his carriage, so he called the spies and his nephew Shen Shuguang to inquire.
In fact, Shen Shuguang was not there when the spy replied to Wei Changying, so he didn't know anything.
When his son came back from the heavy carriage, Wei Changying asked him: "You don't know what your second uncle wants to ask, so why did you stay for so long?"
Unexpectedly, Shen Shuguang said: "The second uncle said that the child is the father's eldest son. Even if he is still young and not sensible, it is time to start listening to such things."
Wei Changying was stunned when he heard this, with a complicated look on his face, and said: "What else?"
Sure enough, Shen Shuguang said: "The second uncle said that when my uncle and father were at the age of the children, my grandfather would let them listen when he was discussing with others or giving instructions on military matters."
"Then you come to my mother half an hour earlier every day." Since there are examples of Shen Zangli and Shen Zangfeng, two people who were cultivated as young lords, the second brother-in-law reminded him like this again. Of course Ying did as he was told, and immediately said, "Now on the road, if anything happens, I'll call you over. I'm tired from running, and it's easy to interrupt your business if I think about it. If it's not particularly important, I'll wait for you to come over later. My mother told you to listen."
Shen Lianshi only let Shen Shuguang listen. As for who told him but didn't tell him, Shen Shuguang had no idea: "My child will obey his mother's orders!"
Because Wei Changying felt that this method of instilling influence was really good, he originally wanted his naughty second son to follow suit - but Shen Shuxie followed his brother and listened to his mother telling a few words about the situation in the imperial capital, and then he started rolling around and asking for food and drink. It's time to play - Wei Changying could only sigh and let someone take him away.
In this way, whenever there was news from the Imperial Capital or Xiliang on the way forward, Wei Changying would tell his eldest son and talk to him about some details and enlightenment.
As a result, when she was approaching Xiliang, a piece of news made her stunned for a long time, and she didn't even say anything to her eldest son.
After Shen Shuguang encountered a big change, his originally cheerful personality became cold and taciturn, and he became particularly calm. But after waiting for a long time, he still didn't see his mother speak. She only told some bad news. He asked in fear: "Mother?"
"...It's nothing, your sixth uncle has been found." Wei Changying was awakened by his son. He forced a smile, folded the letter in half and put it in his sleeve, sighing softly, "I need to think about this for mother... Be good and go play with your brother first." (To be continued)
