Chapter 69 Epilogue
Mrs. Wang's funeral was very crude, and from Yuan Wenshao's point of view, it was probably not as good as ordinary civilians. Two or three kittens went through a scene in a hurry, and they didn't dare to eat or drink tea, for fear of getting stuck A little relationship, corresponding to Gu Tingye's re-establishment of the ancestral hall, ordinarily this is the Gu family's own business, and has nothing to do with others, but even if it has a little relationship, they are desperately pushing forward for fear that others will not agree. Know yourself the same!
It’s true that no one knows about being poor in the downtown area, and having distant relatives in the deep mountains when being rich. By the way, the fourth-bedroom old lady of the Gu family also went into exile with his son. This time, no one is arguing with Gu Tingye anymore. Obviously, everyone is afraid of him. The fuss is gone.

Afterwards, the system prompted Yuan Wenshao to leave and enter the next world. Yuan Wenshao was still a little nostalgic, thinking that he could leave at any time, so let's just wait.

In the ninth year of Jiaxi (Zhao Zongnian), the state of the Great Zhou Dynasty was established and flourishing, and the officials launched the Northern Expedition again. This time, the Northern Expedition was led by Taiwei Yuan Wenshao, the governor of 50 troops, and the troops were divided into three groups. Gu Tingye and Shen Congxing led 15 troops. Starting from Yanmenguan to attack Shuozhou, Huanzhou and Yingzhou are the left army, and generals Wang Shuang and Zhang Li led 15 troops to attack Ruzhou, Guizhou, Wuzhou, and Xinzhou from Youzhou. Yuan Wenshao led an army of 20 to attack Yunzhou and Weizhou, which have the strongest defense forces, from the middle of Taihang Mountains.

The three-way army was as powerful as a broken bamboo, and all battles were victorious. The Liao Lord urgently mobilized 50 troops to help. The main force of the army was defeated, and the morale of the other defenders was low and they were defeated one by one. Since then, the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun have returned to the embrace of the Central Plains, and the defensive barrier on the northern Great Wall has been rebuilt. The northern nomads can no longer invade the Central Plains at will!
On the day of the triumphant return of the army, the official family held a grand welcome ceremony. Yuan Wenshao was conferred the title of King of Chongning County because of his duties, and he was awarded a gold book and gold treasure.

Yuan Wenshao immediately returned the military amulet and resigned from all positions. He said that his body had been severely injured in successive years of fighting, and his blood was seriously deficient. Persisting, the officials approved Yuan Wenshao's resignation, and named the prince Taibao.

The rest of the people also received rewards. Gu Tingye's Marquis of Ningyuan was directly promoted to Ningguo Duke, which can be regarded as surpassing his ancestors. The whole family of Gu family was overjoyed, and they admired and respected Gu Tingye as the Duke of Ning.

In the same year, Mrs. Wang who was in Youyang’s hometown was welcomed back to the capital. The prince’s mother-in-law can’t be allowed to stay at her hometown all the time. The pillar of the country, who can be proud of her, she is a little bit reluctant on the road, but fortunately, after experiencing the things of the Wang family in the past few years, Mrs. Wang is quite stable now, and returned to the capital without too much delay.

The Sheng family didn't give a big welcome either, just a small gathering of relatives, and the girl Mo Lan came here this time, licking her face. She is having a hard time now, her husband despises her, and her natal family also hates her, so far she has no children. , her in-law’s family also complained quite a bit, and it’s useless to have such a big help. Everyone in the capital knows that Princess Chongning and Mrs. Ningguo hate her, and they never mention her in social activities. A little sober, knowing that her natal family is her last support, she ran to her natal family if she had nothing to do, but unfortunately the effect was not great, so Chang Feng and his wife still missed her as an older sister and greeted her with smiles.

Compared with Mo Lan, Ru Lan is much better. The year before last, she gave birth to a fat boy, her husband Wen Yanjing was promoted to the fifth rank, and her sisters and sisters also took good care of her. Hers, not to mention her mother-in-law, had a fun little life!It's very comfortable, but the idea of ​​wanting to associate with the eldest brother-in-law's family is getting stronger and stronger, so she runs to the palace if she has nothing to do. She has always been a little spoiled, and she can't speak in a tone.

That time Yuan Wenshao made a big fuss, scaring Hualan and Rulan into trembling, if it wasn't for his brother's pleading in the end, the two really didn't know what to do, and since then they haven't dared to mention the friendship Son.

It's not that Yuan Wenshao doesn't look down on sister Rulan Jiafu, that little girl is good-looking, the key is that the two families are too close, this is a marriage of close relatives, in case the offspring has a crooked mouth and eyes, and is mentally abnormal Yes, he was so troublesome, he decided that long-term pain is better than short-term pain, and directly cut off their thoughts. Yuan Wenshao took a fancy to Hai Hanwei, the daughter-in-law of the next generation of the Hai family. Said that his niece, his daughter-in-law, is unparalleled in appearance and has a personality like Chaoyun. Yuan Wenshao was very satisfied after seeing it in person. The daughter of the Hai family is really good. The daughter-in-law returned to her natal home to facilitate this matter.

Hai Chaoyun's eldest brother hesitated a little when he heard about this matter. Their Hai family has always been associated with a scholarly family, and they don't want to lose the reputation of clinging to the powerful, but Hai Chaoyun said a lot of good things.

"Although my elder sister and elder brother-in-law are prominent, they have always been kind and loving, and the courtyard is relatively clean. There are no messy concubines, and they never look sideways at others. Even when they treat servants, they are generally not serious In other words, I am Hanwei's aunt, and I can still harm her. I am the one who is rushing back for an absolutely good marriage. You must know that Hanwei married in the past, so it can be seen that she is a concubine of the world, rich and noble for many generations! "

Her elder brother is still hesitant, but her sister-in-law doesn't have so many worries. She has long been envious of seeing the scenery of her sister-in-law's house all these years. Now that such a good marriage has found them, why don't you hurry up and hold on to it? He directly handed over his daughter's Geng Tie to his sister-in-law Hai Chaoyun, and also asked Hai Chaoyun to make it happen.

The eldest brother of the Hai family didn't say anything when he saw this. He actually knew that this was a good marriage. The Chongning county king and his wife have always had a good reputation. They are generous and kind, and they have never heard of any dirty things Son, it is indeed a perfect marriage, but as a civil servant, he is somewhat arrogant, and he doesn't want people to say that he is just clinging to the powerful, and since it is done, he will acquiesce.

In the 11th year of Jiaxi, Emperor Yingzong died at the age of 58. In the same year, King Huan ascended the throne and changed his name to Yong'an. The second year was the first year of Yong'an.

In the third year of Yong'an, Emperor Yong'an took Xixia's disrespect as an excuse, disregarded the opposition of all the ministers, and launched the Northwest War. He dispatched the Yuzhou Group forces headed by Gu Tingye and Shen Congxing to lead an army of 45 to Xixia. After reaching Xingqing Mansion, the capital of Xixia, facing the danger of destroying the country, Xixia mobilized all the power of the whole country to resist to the death and defended the capital for three months, then launched a night attack when the Zhou army was exhausted and defeated the Zhou army, 40 The tens of thousands of troops were almost wiped out, and less than [-] soldiers fled back to the territory of Dazhou, and the rest were all buried in Xixia.

When Emperor Yong'an heard the bad news, he vomited blood immediately. His body and mind were greatly shocked, and he died of depression not long after.

Yuan Wenshao, the king of Chongning County, was ordered to go to the northwest to resist Xixia's counterattack. Fortunately, Xixia was also exhausted. After successive battles, he was unable to make more attacks. Yuan Wenshao was stationed in the frontier, stationed in the fields to train troops, and returned to the capital when the situation was stable in the second year.

In the same year, Emperor Yuanguang, who was only 12 years old, succeeded to the throne. Fortunately, at this time, Wang Daxiang was a practical talent. At this time, the land annexation in Dazhou was fierce, and the country’s finances were insufficient. Now it was suddenly defeated, the country was in turmoil, and the young master succeeded At this time, the power of the country is actually concentrated on Wang Daxianggong and Yuan Wenshao. Fortunately, neither of them is an ambitious person. They are both for the country, and the general and prime minister are quite harmonious.

With the support of Yuan Wenshao, Mr. Wang Daxiang decided to reform and reform, and implemented some reforms that were beneficial to the country, such as the Young Crops Law, the Recruitment Law, the Fangtian Equal Tax Law, the Farmland Water Conservancy Law, the Market Exchange Law, the Equal Transport Law, and so on.

At the beginning of the reform, there was great opposition from conservative forces, and they were suppressed by the two.

In the third year of Yuanguang, the reforms had achieved initial results, the country was rich and the people were strong, the soldiers were strong and the horses were strong. Da Xianggong and Yuan Wenshao refused.

In the fourth year of Yuanguang, Emperor Yuanguang launched a coup with the support of Yuzhou forces (without Gu Tingye, he chose not to help each other) in an attempt to defeat Wang Daxianggong and Yuan Wenshao's forces in one fell swoop, but Yuan Wenshao led troops to extinguish them. Among them were shot.

The following year, Wang Daxianggong and Yuan Wenshao selected Zhao Yun, a mild-mannered member of the clan, as emperor after discussion, and changed Yuan Jiankang.

Emperor Jiankang was quite benevolent and benevolent, with the style of Renzong, the monarch and his ministers worked together, and the big day became rich and powerful.

In the third year of Jiankang, Yuan Wenshao led the army to destroy Xixia, and the territory of the Western Regions was included in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

In the sixth year of Jiankang, Liao and Jurchen were defeated, and the grassland became a minister. In the same year, Emperor Jiankang named Yuan Wenshao King of Yan, but Yuan Wenshao declined.

In the seventh year of Jiankang, Yuan Wenshao was dismissed and returned to the land. He passed on the title to his eldest son, Yuan Jixun, and led Hualan to travel around the mountains and rivers without interfering with the affairs of the court.

In the 36th year of Jiankang, Hualan died with a smile in Yuan Wenshao's arms.

Yuan Wenshao has no regrets in this world, and indicated that the system can leave.
