I Xiaoxiong

Chapter 70
"It's been playing for 100 years, it's unheard of."

Since the day the Great Jin Dynasty was founded, it has fought intermittently with the Golden Horde for hundreds of years.He never took the initiative to ask for peace, let alone ceded half of the land, and never had a marriage.

Now the other party proposes to make a marriage, or to marry the princess, which is really a bit strange.

"Forget it, let the people in Beijing worry about this matter."

Fu Maoxiu didn't care about issues outside his scope of authority.And the matter of making a marriage must be decided by the emperor.

"The new Khan, Bishamon, has some knowledge. He is seeking peace and doing business. Give him a few years to recover."

The Golden Horde also lost a lot in a big battle last year, and it is unrealistic to compete with the Jin Dynasty in the short term.But this majesty can put down his body and ask for peace, which is considered to be far-sighted and has the heart to endure and overcome difficulties.Fu Maoxiu couldn't help but praise a few words.

"Bending down to seek peace, the intention must not be small. If it weren't for the court's difficulty in sustaining the cost of the war at this time, it would be best to take advantage of its weakness and destroy the Golden Tent in one go. No matter how bad it is, it will smash him to pieces and make the Golden Family powerless. Only by controlling the northern border and all the tribes attacking and killing each other can we rest easy in the Great Jin."

Hearing Sanlang's words, Fu Maoxiu smiled and shook his head, while Liu Xianke and Cui Fangyi beside him also smiled and remained silent.

It's not that what Fu Jinchuan said was unrealistic. On the contrary, "taking advantage of his illness to kill him" is undoubtedly a very correct strategy for the Golden Horde, the formidable enemy in the north.

The problem is that the Golden Horde was seriously injured last year and experienced a change of throne, but now the Great Jin is also facing a huge dilemma, and it can even be said to be "sick with serious illness".

We all need a respite.

In Fu Jinchuan's view, the imperial court's plight is only temporary, and it will be greatly improved after a few years of delay. After all, it is still a peaceful and prosperous age.
After Liu Xianke and Cui Fangyi finished talking, they left.

A few days ago when the two nephews came, Fu Maoxiu didn't bother to ask about the situation of the family. It was a good question. When he heard what Hachiro did, the British Duke, who was very good at raising his spirit, almost took the white man in his hand. The glazed teacup was dropped.

"Sanlang, you go home in a few days and discipline him for me. Your mother is also true, how can you be so spoiled? How can you become a weapon?"

Fu Jinchuan said: "You also know that Aunt spoiled the eighth younger brother and asked me to discipline her. Can Aunt be willing?"

"I'll write a letter to your aunt later, and you will take it home with me. This kid is so stubborn, he must be disciplined strictly, and if he doesn't obey, he will call me. With Hachiro's virtue, he is just like your little uncle. He is really a nephew, Uncle Xiao."

This brought up the fact that the youngest son was spoiled by his wife, and it reminded him of the unworthy brother-in-law of his father-in-law's family.
When the nephews heard it, it seemed that this was true. Yang Liulang, who served as the Duke of the State, was known as a libertine a few years ago, and of course he is now.

But Fu Maoxiu forgot that his reputation didn't seem to be very good when he was young.
"After you return to Beijing, you should be able to be named a marquis. But you are still young, and you will be preparing for your marriage when you go back, so I should give you a job."

After hearing this, Fu Jinchuan was already prepared, "I know, after I go back, I will probably go to the East Palace to work."

He had long thought in his heart that he would go back and be on the bench for a few years. After all, he was a prince with less than [-] military exploits, and he was also the prince's confidant.

Before the crown prince takes control of the government, people like Fu Jinchuan will generally not be in charge of the military power. At most, he will be in charge of the sixth rate of the East Palace, which is the imperial guard directly under the crown prince.

Fu Jinchuan was very clear about this, and he didn't have any complaints. He fought a battle when he came out, and stayed with the elite frontier army for a long time. If he was asked to go back to bring the bastards of the Imperial Army, it would be embarrassing for Fu Sanlang.

The world has been at peace for a long time, and Shangjing City has not seen any military disasters for almost a hundred years. The Imperial Army guarding Shangjing is naturally less armed.

If there are enough people, it should not be used.

The soldiers in the world who can fight are only the elite frontier troops in Hexi, Shuofang, and Hedong. Because there are many old soldiers in Guanzhong, they are also considered capable of fighting.

Now the imperial court is quite strong and weak, but because of the hundred years of the Great Jin Dynasty, the majesty and laws of the imperial court are still there, so no troubles have arisen.

Fu Jinchuan is also very clear about this, but now the court still has the final say on the Taoist emperor, even if he is a marquis and married a princess, he is still considered a junior.

Moreover, the imperial army is corrupt, soldiers cannot fight, soldiers are lazy, and it is not uncommon to resell military rations on empty pay. Does this have anything to do with his Fu family?
Taking a step back, even if his Fu's family is clean, what about old in-laws like Fuguogongfu, Dingyuanhoufu, and Weiguogongfu?

Even if the Emperor Daojun is determined to rectify the imperial army, the Fu family can only stay out of the matter at best, after all, these noble generals are inextricably linked and connected with each other.

Even though Dingguo's government seems to be at odds with each other, in fact, the two families have tacit understanding on certain matters.

Does Emperor Daojun know that the Imperial Army is corrupt?Of course I know.

But to rectify the forbidden army means to kill the honorable generals, which is undoubtedly the foundation of self-destruction for the emperor.

After all, these noble generals can still be used, and they must be used.Otherwise, without the checks and balances and suppression of nobles, the emperor's control over the imperial army and the locality would be weakened to a very dangerous level.

Let's not mention the century-old friendship between these honorable families and the royal family.Even if most of the honorable generals are ineffective, there are still old and firm Dinghai gods like Dingguogong, Weiguogong, Wu Dinghou, the pillars of the country, and young talents like Fu Jinchuan.

If there were no such human beings, the emperor might not be able to sleep well at night.

What's more, there is a fierce tiger in Liaodong, hiding in a deep mound, watching it covetously.

At the end of September, the purpose of going to the capital finally arrived.Order Fu Jinchuan, Xue Cong and other meritorious officers and men to enter Beijing to present victories and confer titles.

The eunuch who was in charge of bringing the edict did not forget to say to Fu Jinchuan in advance, "Congratulations, sir." Although the title has not yet been determined, the position of marquis has already been determined.

In the past hundred years of the Great Jin Dynasty, Fu Jinchuan was the only one who was dissatisfied with the age of the weak crown and became a marquis with military exploits, and his name will surely go down in history.

On the other side, Japu Huali and his younger brother Japu Sigong walked on the road to Liangzhou with hundreds of guards.

"Brother, this time I'm going to Liangzhou, just in time to go to find Xiu Niang in a fair and honest way."

Japu Sigong was still thinking about the pipa girl he met in Liangzhou City last year. He was the prince of Tielebu.

Jape Huali, however, seemed to be thinking about something, and just casually agreed: "Yes."

"Liangzhou City is big enough. Last time I heard Guo Liulang say that Shangjing is bigger. After a few years, I will go to Shangjing to see it."

It was only at this time that Jape Huali came back from his thoughts, "If you were to stay in Shangjing for the rest of your life, would you be willing?"

Japu Sigong thought for a while and said: "If I can be with Xiu Niang, I think I would be willing. Hahahaha."

Zhapu Huali received the order to go to Liangzhou, so he naturally knew that he would go to Beijing with him to confer the title, and also knew that the Jin court would set up guards in the four departments, each with a thousand guards, and the four guards Chief of Horses.

The Four Departments didn't even have a chance to raise objections to this.

Because the Hexi Jiedu Mansion was not discussing with them, but directly telling them to prepare a barracks for thousands of people in the city.

Even have to bear food and grass.

reject?Even today, do you still have the qualifications to negotiate conditions with Da Jin?
When Gao Changguo was here, there were none.Not to mention that now the old land of Gaochang has been cut into four parts, a plate of loose sand.

Moreover, Japu Huali also knew that the transfer of four warriors and young nobles to the Hexi Festival Mansion, although it weakened the four tribes, was actually considered a good thing, at least the Great Jin Dynasty would not ignore the four tribes.The four divisions have a special position, without the Great Jin they would have been divided up by Qingtang and Jinzhang long ago.

At this time, he still doesn't know what kind of official he will be appointed when he goes to Beijing this time, and he also doesn't know when he will be able to come back.

But being an official of the Jin State, it seems that being a Jin State person is not bad.

Especially thinking of the two battles between Baiting and Shule, the invincible Jin army, the strong confidence of the Jin people from the bottom of their hearts, and the demeanor of the people of the state, all fascinated him.

All the members of the camp of Huben Festival in Liangzhou City were packing their bags, and when Fu Jinchuan returned to Shangjing, they all had to follow.

As for whether to go to Shangjing to serve in the Imperial Army, or to serve somewhere, it mostly depends on their personal thoughts and Fu Jinchuan's arrangements.

But right now, they don't care about these at all, all they want to do is go to Shangjing to see what the bustling city looks like.

Pang Yun, who didn't know what to say, began to give a speech again.

"Let me tell you, the one hundred and eighth square in the capital city is a place for eating, drinking and having fun. The night market closes its stall at three o'clock in the evening, and opens again at five o'clock. The morning food, the mutton soup of Chen Ji, is so delicious. a must"

"Okay, Captain Pang, I've heard you say it for several years, but I haven't seen it yet."

Zhao Fubo sighed.

"My lord, it's not too late for a good meal."

Although Zhao Fubai was born in the imperial family, he was born in the Daxing Mansion in Xijing, he had never been to the capital.

When I was at home, I heard my grandfather and father mention the prosperity of Shangjing. In his eyes, Xijing is prosperous enough. What about Shangjing, which is more prosperous than Xijing?
At the end of September, Fu Maoxiu saw him off in person. Fu Jinchuan and Xue Cong set off from Liangzhou with 600 soldiers, Japu Huali and his hundreds of personal guards, and the captured Yuezhen royal family. , Go to Shangjing thousands of miles away.

At the same time, a strange event also happened in Shangjing, thousands of miles away from their destination. Finally, there was news of a censor and four embroidered guards who had been missing for half a year.

It turned out that these people were robbed by bandits on the way to Yangzhou last year, but for some unknown reason, they were not killed, but locked up by bandits.

It just so happened that Yangzhou garrisoned the bandits and rescued them from the bandit camp. They are currently resting in Yangzhou and preparing to return to Beijing after a tour in Huainan.

When the news spread to the palace, the Emperor Daojun couldn't stop laughing, and then smashed a branch of Lantian Jade Ruyi in his hand.

"Very courageous."
