When the crowds on the street gradually became thinner, Wang Xiongdan looked around and lowered his voice and said: "With the talents of a foster father, why are you just idle like this? Why don't we ask the Supreme Being for an official position? We won't go back to the south, just to the northwest of Chang'an."
To find a position, you should..."
Du Fuwei chuckled, waved his hand and said, "What's wrong with being idle? Besides, we're still the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy... Don't talk too much in the future, do you think I'm living too comfortably?"
Now he is in the stage of appreciating the scenery of Chang'an. His eyes are full of novelties. In addition, he is inquiring about the genealogy of the Chang'an family, and his heart is full of envy. In addition to losing the power to monopolize power in Jiangdu and write down the constitution, he feels a little lost.
Other than that, everything else really fits the good life he imagined.
Within a few days of his arrival, he had already walked around Chang'an City several times and even outside the city. Apart from making the people around him nervous, there were really no restrictions.
The emperor keeps his word, and he, Du Fuwei, is not one to go back on his word. It is not too late to stay here for some time before making other plans.
He knew all these things well, and it was too urgent to ask for an official position now. Whoever said a word might make him unable to advance or retreat, or even lose his life.
I have only been here for a few days, and I am just thinking about this and that. The emperor will inevitably feel that he is restless. You have been rewarded with so many things, and you are still not satisfied. Are you trying to steal the emperor's position?
Therefore, he must first put down his roots in Chang'an, for example, get married to a big family in Chang'an, or give birth to a son while there is nothing to do. That would be serious.
Just then he remembered it, and immediately said with a glare: "If you have nothing to do, don't stay in Chang'an for too long. Go back to the northwest for me. Also, hurry up and send someone to Jiangdu to bring your mother-in-law and son to Chang'an."
.
I left in a hurry this time and didn’t bring them here..."
It's not that he's walking in a hurry, it's because he doesn't know the fate of his trip to Chang'an.
Wang Xiongdan caught fire and couldn't help but muttered: "Didn't I tell my adoptive father a long time ago that I don't want to go back to that ghost place? Nothing but sand is dirt. Look at me. I've been like this for a year. What a shame!"
You won't even recognize me if you pick it up.
I want to find a position in Chang'an. General Xue said that he is a close friend of General Yuchi of Zuotunwei. It will be easy to find a position there.
Besides, I don’t feel at ease because my foster father is here alone. If I am in the Wei Mansion, I might as well have someone to take care of him."
When he heard him say this before, Du Fuwei felt that his adopted son was affectionate and righteous, and he was very happy, but after thinking about it for a few days, he came to understand.
Today, he just happened to start a conversation, and he suddenly got angry. He raised his leg and kicked Wang Xiongda to stagger, and said angrily: "If you go to the Wei Mansion and hang out in my house from time to time, other people around you will think that you are...
You want to help me run out of Chang'an, you short-lived devil, but I still want to live for two more days."
Wang Xiongdan rubbed his crotch and nodded subconsciously, but reluctantly said, "If you're not in the Wei Mansion, then you're not in the Wei Mansion... I heard that General Yuchi has become the Minister of War, I'll go
Looking for a position in the Ministry of War..."
Du Fuwei was furious, "Yeah, you haven't even listened to me since you've been out for a few days, right?"
As he spoke, he went up and punched Wang Xiongdan several times. The happy scene between father and son immediately turned into a father teaching his disobedient son.
Wang Xiongdan followed Du Fuwei when he was a boy, and now he has grown into a burly man with a big body and a round waist, but he does not dare to fight back. He holds his head and retreats, constantly begging for mercy.
Du Fuwei's anger subsided for a moment, his hands were sore from the shock, and he grinned and said: "Go back to me tomorrow, what about the Ministry of Defense and Military Affairs? Wait two years before talking."
Although Wang Xiongdan was still a little unconvinced, he did not dare to say anything more, so he responded aggrievedly: "Then I will have a few more drinks with my adoptive father tonight. If I go out again, I won't know when I will be back."
Du Fuwei calmed down, patted his adopted son on the shoulder and said: "We used to go to sea for half a year, and it was only with our heads that we are here today... It's not that my adopted father doesn't want to keep you, it's that he can't let you stay."
At this point, Du Fuwei's voice became lower, his eyes were deep, and he finally regained his appearance as a hero on the right side of the Yangtze River, "Dou Jiande has been captured and brought to Beijing, and the world is about to be at peace.
If we want to survive, we can't get together together if nothing happens. Although the emperor and I only met once, I can see that he is not a stingy person.
But having said that, if you deliberately put your head under the knife, they will not show mercy, so you should be careful in your actions in the future.
Again, the lives of my adoptive father and his whole family depend on you. If you are well, I will have nothing to worry about. If I am well, you don’t have to worry about anything.
When you go back this time, stop overthinking and let everyone see what Shandong heroes are capable of. If you come back with a wife and a son, your adoptive father will probably be happier than you."
Wang Xiongdan bowed his head to accept the instruction, but after a while, he recovered and said with a smile: "It's easy. It's not like my adoptive father doesn't know my skills. General Xue appreciates me. I'll try it with the Turks in the next two years."
With a knife, maybe I can open a house and build a tooth."
Du Fuwei's mood also improved. In fact, there were some things he didn't say. When he met with the emperor, the emperor was very interested in going to sea.
And he seems to be no stranger to maritime affairs... If he is right, people like them will definitely be useful in the future. He is not bragging. When it comes to overseas business, who can be more familiar with it than these people?
While they were talking, the people and horses had passed by, and the people gradually dispersed while talking about today's grand occasion. Du Fuwei took the people to the East Market.
A few days ago, he met a fortune teller there and asked him to tell his adopted son's future. If the fortune teller failed, he would ruin his fortune.
After that, I will take my adopted son to Caiyufang for a drink and let him practice it well.
His expenses have been a bit high recently, but of course, to him they are just a drop in the bucket.
Not to mention the salary of the King of Wu and the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, his family can be said to be rich and wealthy in the capital. Few people can compare with him. This is only half of his family property. When things are stable, he can be sent to Jiangdu.
Bring everything over.
He has already thought about giving half of the family property to the emperor to buy peace. I wonder if the emperor will want it. If not... we can also build an academy in Chang'an?
He went outside the city the day before yesterday and listened to his followers and went to Chang'an Academy to look around. The building was really good. In his opinion, this was nothing more than an invitation from the emperor. He followed his example and helped the emperor's reputation.
That should be right, right?
Needless to say, his ideas are indeed very strange...
In fact, he just inquired about it. The emperor had built such a Chang'an Academy two years after entering Chang'an. He must have paid more attention to it. If he wanted to flatter the emperor, he could start from now on...
