Northern Dynasties

Chapter 302
A few days later, the Beizhou Baojie team finally arrived outside the city of Huazhou, and the mighty team shocked everyone.

It's not because the people of Huazhou City haven't seen the world, but most of the people don't know that such a battle happened.And the small number of people who knew about this matter, when they had not read the briefing on the results of the battle, only felt that it should be similar to the small-scale troubles on the border in previous years.

But when so many captives and trophies were actually presented in front of them, everyone who knew about it or not was shocked for a moment.

Because the team of reporting victory is too large, it is impossible to put all of them in the city, so they temporarily stationed in Yibing City outside the city, and the Taifu sent officials to inspect the harvest of the troops and supplies, and selected meritorious men to follow Daxingtai to Chang'an at the end of the year. Repay the meritorious deeds.

Although Daxingtai had a general understanding of the outcome of the battle through the briefing, he still couldn't help but smile, He looks happy.

It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. Of course, Yu Wentai has also experienced the days of poverty, but with a large amount of windfall money in the previous year, all kinds of expenses have been lavish in the past year, and many planned affairs have progressed. Greatly speeding up, I can't help being arrogant in my heart, and I can't bear the previous years of living within my means and picking and searching.

But the momentary arrogance does not mean that it will become the norm, after all, it still needs to be based on reality.Especially after the end of this year's parade, the financial situation of the hegemony has become even worse, and it has almost reached an unsustainable level. Even the gifts of those generals who were rewarded for their outstanding performance in the previous grand parade, now It's still just a blank check that can't be cashed.

No matter how troubled Yu Wentai was, he didn't intend to treat these generals harshly, and even planned to withhold the tributes from all parties to the royal family and temporarily divert them as rewards for the generals.

But if he really wants to do this, it will undoubtedly intensify the conflict with the royal family. He has beaten the princes and other officials of the Eastern Palace before. Many unpredictable variables.

Now that a batch of booty from Beizhou has entered the mansion, it can be said that the urgent need of the hegemony's expenses has been greatly relieved, at least the next year can be lived very comfortably.

"Boshan really knows my heart, it's a pity..."

After Yu Wentai heard this, he hesitated a little. When the victory team arrived in Huazhou this time, they also brought a private letter from Li Mu to him. In addition to briefly talking about various things after he entered the state, he also expressed a lot of respect for everyone in the lines. Xingtai's longing also evoked Yu Wentai's longing for this confidant and beloved general, so he planned to recall him for a reunion a year ago.

When Yu Wenhu came to report that Zhao Gui's son Zhao Yongren's affairs had been arranged, but Yu Wentai's mood was not the slightest bit of joy, and he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

In his position, it is really difficult to say that he likes someone intimately emotionally. The occasional so-called true feelings are mostly based on buying people's hearts based on the balance of interests.But for Li Tai, a young man, aside from this level of master-slave relationship, he really once sincerely hoped to establish a relationship of friendship with him.

After hearing the words, Yu Wenhu said quickly: "Before Boshan returned to the mansion, he was first for the household affairs, and then he was busy with the grand parade. .Family affairs, both public and private, all owe an official statement. As for Mr. Wu'an, we might as well recall them together. After all, the war in Beizhou will be decided, and there will be no conflicts in a short period of time. Besides, Xiazhou There are also Hua Zhenggong and others sitting in town..."

Yu Wentai's previous intentions were often expressed almost explicitly, and Yu Wenhu believed that a shrewd and winking person like Li Tai would definitely be able to see it.But now that Zhao Gui and his son suddenly blocked their marriage, they must be depressed.

With Zhao Gui's gestures and affection to force Yu Wentai to decide to marry him, the possibility of Li Tai becoming the son-in-law of the Yuwen family is very small, unless Li Tai is willing to refuse to marry a wife and wait for several years or even ten years In [-], when their Yuwen family had another woman of the right age to marry, it was obviously impossible.

Hearing this, Yu Wentai's expression improved a little, and he said with a smile on his face, "I hope so, but if people who can match Li Boshan's demeanor can continue to emerge, that's the favor of underestimating God's will."

The corner of Yu Wenhu's mouth twitched again after hearing the words, but it's hard to accept the truth. Is it God's preference or your own preference, or the so-called God's will is your own meaning?
"Friendship in the world is not the only way of kinship. When Boya met his son, a good man had to meet Bole, and Li Boshan tended to go to Uncle, and it was also a good minister who was lucky to meet the Lord of Ming. Since Uncle appreciates him, this is also a long-term honor. maintain the friendship."

It's not that he's jealous of the virtuous and capable, and he doesn't allow others to share his uncle's trust and reliance, but as Yu Chijiong said before, if Li Boshan really enters the house and becomes their son-in-law, before the cousins ​​under his uncle's knees grow up, they may be real. They must obey orders and be dispatched to Li Boshan.

"Recall him back to the capital? But he just returned to the mansion before, and Li Xianqing has been away from the mansion for a long time, and this time he fought bravely and made great achievements..."

As long as he didn't become a relative in this sect, Yu Wenhu didn't have any prejudice against Li Tai, and even felt a little ashamed of Li Tai because of the fact that he sneaked into Zhao Gui and ruined his good relationship, so he said: "This time Beizhou has made great achievements. , and also need to call him back to the mansion to teach the generals, why not let Boshan come to Beijing on behalf of the soldiers there? At that time, the rank of the ranks will be super-elevated, and the magnate will give generously, so that people will be grateful to die!"

Although Yu Wenhu didn't want to see Li Tai become his son-in-law, he didn't reject his relationship with Li Tai, so he decided to take advantage of the time when Li Tai was depressed, to see if he could help Li Tai Get this lifelong event done and deepen your bond.

Of course, Yu Wenhu's enthusiastic advice to his uncle to recall Li Tai was not because he felt guilty, and it was so simple to let Li Tai come back to have a stable New Year, but because he had other private plans brewing.

The uncle and nephew had already had a conversation about this before, and Yu Wenhu didn't dare to express his guard against Li Tai directly in front of his uncle. Seeing his expression, he still couldn't let go, so he said: "There is an old saying that clothes are not as good as new ones." [-]. People are not as good as they are. Although Zhongshan Gong is not high-minded and talented, he is an old man who has known each other and shared weal and woe. Li Boshan is indeed an amazing talent, but in terms of emotion, it is just a decoration It's just colored ribbons and silk threads, Uncle's status is rising day by day, such talents will continue to come to the government to listen to..."

Yu Wenhu saw that the matter had come to this point, and his uncle still looked regretful when he mentioned the matter, and he couldn't help but secretly rejoice.

Even if it is not for the sake of forming a party, Li Tai, a rising star who is highly valued by his uncle and has outstanding ability, can keep pace with him in some matters, which is very comfortable.

Yu Wentai didn't know the thoughts in Yu Wenhu's mind, but after listening to what he said, he also felt that there were some things that had to be made clear in person.If he didn't explain the various traces of his performance before, it might turn into a knot between them.

So after pondering for a while, Yu Wentai also nodded and said: "What you said is not unreasonable, so I recalled these two members together, and entered the court with me to participate in the Yuanyue Dynasty meeting. Since last year, Li Boshan has indeed If you have worked hard, you should be commended.”

Li Tai has no way of knowing what happened here in Huazhou City in the short term. Although the war is over, many finishing tasks are more heavy and busy than during the battle, so busy that he has no time to take care of other things.

　First of all, I would like to wish everyone a good old age, good luck in the new year, and wish you a fortune! ! !
