www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Young Master Fierce!
On September 26, the eighth year of the Xuanli calendar, it was the first day of autumn in Dayu, and there was a steady autumn rain.
Fu Xiaoguan did not go out today. The disaster relief plan will not be finalized until after autumn. He was a stranger in Beijing and could not meet Dong Shulan during the day, so he simply meditated and continued to practice the Nine Yang Heart Sutra.
Not long after we sat down, Chunxiu came to report, and the second young master of the Dong family came again.
Fu Xiaoguan thought for a while, stood up and welcomed Dong Xiude in.
Chunxiu brewed two pots of tea and retreated behind Fu Xiaoguan. Fu Xiaoguan looked at Dong Xiude and asked, "Isn't this Qiu Wei today?"
"I didn't go, I couldn't pass the exam anyway."
This guy is a bachelor, "Aren't you worried about your father beating you?"
Chatting with Shulan last night, he had a general idea of the situation in the Dong Mansion.
"I'm used to beatings... Do you think these parents are also stupid? Since I was beaten by them since I was a child, they haven't realized that beating me can't solve the problem at all, and they haven't thought of trying other methods!"
Fu Xiaoguan was happy and asked: "Then tell me what other methods are there?"
"For example...give me some money, maybe I can learn more."
This guy is a complete loser and a total money addict.
Perhaps it was because it was still early and it was raining outside, but Mr. Fu didn't say he would take Fu Xiaoguan out for a walk. The two just sat here drinking tea and chatting, which actually strengthened their relationship a lot.
Fu Xiaoguan has gradually become more mature, and he has a common language when faced with a dandy like Mr. Fu, which makes Mr. Fu say that it is too late to meet him.
Then under Fu Xiaoguan's deliberate guidance, we talked about the forces in Beijing.
"Among the six great families in Beijing, the number one now must be the Yan family. Yan Yunchuan is a famous prime minister who created the age of peace and prosperity. His son Yan Beixi, who is the prime minister of the dynasty, is not as good as Yan Yun. Sichuan, but it still sounds very powerful. As for Yan Shidao, the third generation of the Yan family, this person started from the county magistrate and climbed up to the position of Privy Councilor. Although he can't live without the Yan family. Strong support, but this person must have his own strengths. The so-called three-phase, that is to say, this Yan master is also able to worship the prime minister. As for the fourth generation of the Yan family, the most talented one is Yan Xiwen. But I’m not optimistic about Yan Xiwen.”
Fu Xiaoguan was a little curious and asked: "Why?"
"Isn't it said that you can only be rich for three generations? He is already the fourth generation! What's more, if he can't even defeat you, how can he possibly be in power again?"
What he said... Fu Xiaoguan smiled dumbly and was speechless.
"There is a lot of controversy among people about the second wealthy family in Shangjing. Some people think it is the Shi family, while others think it is the Fei family. In my opinion, it should be the Shi family, because the Shi family's business is very large. Let me tell you. , except for Huangren, the rouge gouache brocade silk and satin of the Shi family was sold to Fan State, Yi State and Wu Dynasty. It is not an exaggeration to say that the Shi family is as rich as the country. What's more, the current head of the Shi family, Shi Chaoyuan, is also the Minister of Rites of the current dynasty, a man of many talents. People.”
"This is the Fei family. Mrs. Fei is still alive. Don't underestimate this old guy. He is a real veteran of the three dynasties and the minister of Gu Ming! It is said that his prestige in the court back then was even that of Prime Minister Yan Bei. Xi was also beaten hard by him. You can imagine how powerful this old guy is. This old master Fei has four sons. The eldest son Fei An, who is fifty years old, was once a general of the southern frontier army. He retired and farmed in Nanling County outside Shangjing City."
"What? Farming?" Fu Xiaoguan asked in surprise, is the dignified general farming? This guy is quite interesting.
"Yes, he planted ten acres of land himself, and it is said that he lived a pastoral life, which was quite comfortable."
Fu Xiaoguan nodded, Dong Xiude took a sip of tea, and said: "Fei Bang, the second son of Master Fei, is forty-five years old, and is the Minister of War. Fei Ding, the third son of Master Fei, is four years old. 12. Even though he is a third-rank official, he has the power to supervise all officials! ”
Then Dong Xiude briefly talked about the Xue family, the Xi family and the Qin family, the remaining six great families in Beijing.
Each of these families has its own unique features. For example, the Xue family owns the largest shipping business in the world, has its own shipyard, dock, and so on.
The Xi family owned the three best pastures in the Yu Dynasty. Almost all the war horses of the Yu Dynasty were provided by the Xi family, and the Xi family also had many excellent cavalry generals among the four frontier armies of Yu. The most outstanding one is Xi Changge, who was born in a side house. He is thirty-five years old and is already the cavalry commander of the Western Frontier Army. It is only a matter of time before he takes charge of the Western Frontier Army.
What Fu Xiaoguan didn't expect was the Qin family, where Qin Bingzhong was.
Qin Bingzhong is not the head of the family. The head of the Qin family is Qin Bingzhong's younger brother Qin Yuheng. Qin Yuheng's son Qin Huizhi is now the counselor of the Political Affairs Hall. According to Dong Xiude, this person is extremely low-key, but he has faint signs of worshiping the prime minister. However, Dong Xiude does not think that Qin Huizhi can defeat Yan Shidao because the Yan family is more powerful.
I heard from Dong Xiude that Qin Bingzhong and Qin Yuheng had different opinions on the development route of the family. The two brothers had been inseparable for many years. In particular, an incident occurred in the first year of Xuanli, which caused Qin Bingzhong to go south to Linjiang and rarely returned to Beijing.
In the first year of Xuanli, there was friction between Dayu and Yi on the border. Qin Bingzhong’s eldest grandson Qin Tong was a captain in the light cavalry regiment of the eastern frontier at this time. Qin Tong led his troops to go on an expedition and encountered the Yi Kingdom's Red Ling Army. Both sides fought a battle at Ximayuan. Our army was defeated and Qin Tong died in the battle. This was the tragedy of Ximayuan in modern history.
After Qin Bingzhong learned the news that Qin Tong died in battle, he closed his doors for three days, and then went to Linjiang. He had no contact with Qin Yuheng anymore. The Qin family in Beijing had actually been divided into two. Of course, Qin Bingzhong’s lineage was not What kind of power is there? The so-called Qin family in Beijing generally refers to Qin Yuheng's lineage.
"How can I say Mr. Qin? He was a great Confucian of the time and was once a high-ranking member of the imperial court. However, once this person is exposed to a Confucian character, he will inevitably become a bit pedantic. He always wants to use sage's books to educate others. In the end, I was educated by others, so why bother?"
Dong Xiude shook his head, feeling sorry for Mr. Qin. He spread his hands and said, "Go and tell the wolf to let it eat grass instead of meat. Isn't this, this, ridiculous?"
"Is there any hidden secret in this?"
"How do I know the real situation at that time? But I heard some gossip while drinking. At that time, the commander of the eastern frontier army was Fei Bang. The order that Qin Tong was ordered to go out was said to be Fei Bang, but Fei Bang did not He didn't tell Qin Tong that he was about to face the most powerful Red Ling Army in the Yi Kingdom! Qin Tong only had a thousand light cavalry, but he had a **** 10,000 Red Ling Army! And now that he thought about it, it seemed to be a game, Qin Tong's. The scout did not find the enemy, but he was made a dumpling by others. In the spring of the third year of Xuanli, Fei Bang was transferred to the post of Shangshu of the Ministry of War, and his replacement as the general marshal of the Eastern Frontier Army was Yan Beixi's third son Yan Haochu. "
"Haha, a civil servant became the generalissimo of the Eastern Frontier Army!"
Dong Xiude stood up and said, "Don't talk nonsense about these nonsense. It's noon. Are you going to Sifanglou?"
