Chapter 174 Strange Father and Son

 Huangfusong’s funeral finally began.

The mausoleum is in the eastern suburbs of Chang'an.

Immediately after the burial, hundreds of officials accompanied him, and many of the hundreds of thousands of people in Chang'an City spontaneously accompanied him to see Huangfu Song off on his last journey.

Zhu Jun, Sheyuan and others all walked silently, each wearing a white scarf on their head.

Wang Ding is also among the hundreds of officials. He, Wang Yun, Yang Biao and others are in front. Those in front of him are Huangfu Song's relatives.

In the crowd, Zhu Jun looked at Wang Ding's back.

In the days after arriving in Chang'an, Zhu Jun did not stay at Huangfu's house every day. He also walked around Chang'an City during the day and visited some former classmates and friends.

The more he saw and heard about the changes in Chang'an, the more surprised he became.

And all of this is because of the man walking in front.

"Maybe it's because I'm old." Zhu Jun thought.

In the past, he, Huangfu Song, and Lu Zhi fought against the Yellow Turban Army.

Lu Zhi died of illness two years ago, and Huangfu Song is also dead now, leaving him alone.

Zhu Jun was a little disheartened. He felt that his life had been meaningless in the past few years. He had been fighting for nothing, but it was all in vain.

Huangfu Song's coffin was carried into the mausoleum, and the last few craftsmen completely sealed the entrance.

As soon as the funeral was over, Chang'an City seemed to become deserted in an instant.

Many people who came to pay homage did not even return to Chang'an City after the funeral. They left directly from Huangfu Song's mausoleum and returned to where they came from.

Chen Gui, shooting aid, trial match...

Many people leave directly, fearing that if they are too late, they will be left behind by Wang Ding.

In fact, Wang Ding didn't pay attention to them at all.

It was only when Sima Lang came to report that Wang Ding found out that Zhu Jun had not left.

To Wang Ding's surprise, Wang Ding didn't go out of his way to see Zhu Jun.

Although Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song were generals of the same period, in Wang Ding's heart, Zhu Jun's status could not be compared with Huangfu Song.

Moreover, Zhu Jun is getting old. Even if he wants to jump, Wang Ding estimates that he won’t be able to jump for long.

In this era, medical conditions are so poor that anyone who can live over sixty is considered a longevity person.

When a person gets old, he may not be able to survive even a minor illness.

Zhu Jun was alone in Chang'an. Even if he was still hostile to Wang Ding, he would not be able to stir up trouble.

Sima Lang only sent a spy to follow Zhu Jun secretly when he went out. As long as Zhu Jun did not do anything bad, he would be left alone.

After Huangfu Song was buried, Huang Wan took the edict and rushed to Xuzhou.

To prevent Xuzhou from making preparations in advance and not disclosing them before.

At least when Chen Gui left, he definitely didn’t know that Huang Wan would also go to Xuzhou.

It's just that after Huang Wan left Chang'an with the edict, it was estimated that people would soon know about it. Based on the route he took, Huang Wan's purpose should be guessed.

Wang Ding was a little curious about how Liu Bei, who was in Xuzhou, would react when he learned that Huang Wan had come to replace Tao Qian.

He still won’t give in to Xuzhou three times and is willing to make Huang Wan’s wedding dress.

Regarding the appointment of Huang Wan as Xuzhou Shepherd this time, what Wang Ding said in front of Liu Xie was indeed correct. He was also on Liu Xie's side and considered for Liu Xie.

But at the same time, I am also thinking about Wang Ding himself.

The biggest profiteer from this move is Wang Ding.

Huang Wan was taken out of Chang'an, and Wang Ding did not need to worry about the other party fanning Liu Xie's anger.

In addition, after Huang Wan went to Xuzhou, no matter whether he could control Xuzhou or not, he would still be able to cause some chaos for Cao Cao and Liu Bei.

If Huang Wan can really control Xuzhou, it will be more beneficial to Wang Ding. It is definitely better than falling into the hands of Cao Cao or Liu Bei.

Among these three people, Huang Wan is undoubtedly the best to deal with.

Both Cao Cao and Liu Bei are heroes.

Chen Gui walked in a hurry, deliberately bypassing Yanzhou, heading south from Luoyang to Jingzhou, then passing through Yuzhou, and finally returned to Xuzhou.

It happened to be consistent with the route chosen by Huang Wan. Neither of them wanted to pass through Cao Cao's territory for fear of being detained by Cao Cao.

At least for now, Liu Biao of Jingzhou and Yuan Shu of Yuzhou have no conflict with Tao Qian for the time being.

Moreover, there is actually a connection between Tao Qian and Yuan Shu. The two parties can be said to be allies, working together to resist Cao Cao.

Although Chen Gui left for a day first, he was older and his speed on the road was not very fast, so he was caught up by Huang Wan halfway.

Huang Wan simply stopped hiding it and told Chen Gui that he was going to Xuzhou to replace Tao Qian, hoping to get Chen Gui's help.

Chen Gui naturally smiled and nodded in agreement, but outsiders didn't know what he was thinking.

When they hit the road again the next day, Chen Gui’s team was inexplicably missing one person.

……

Wang Yun took office again and stood in the court, he was very active.

Wang Ding tried his best to let himself meet Wang Yunshao.

The two are father and son, but their positions are different.

It is absolutely impossible for Wang Ding to really stand by Liu Xie and really devote himself wholeheartedly to Liu Xie.

This is a ruthless and unjust emperor.

No matter how much Wang Ding paid for him, he would never get Liu Xie's gratitude.

Wang Ding is in the military camp every day, and Sima Lang Jia Xu is responsible for matters in Chang'an City. If there is any important news, Sima Lang will inform Wang Ding immediately.

Within a few days, Wang Ding heard from Sima Lang that Wang Yun had repeatedly caused trouble for Jia Xu.

Jia Xu, who is good at protecting himself wisely, really suffered an unexpected disaster this time.

Although Jia Xu has long been branded with the label of Wang Ding, on weekdays in the court, Jia Xu talks less and does more, and is only responsible for the things he should be responsible for, and does not care about other things.

But even so, Wang Yun is still eyeing him.

It’s not that there is a problem with Jia Xu’s job, it’s just that Jia Xu is his son.

No matter what happened, Wang Yun just wanted to pick on Jia Xu. That is to say, Jia Xu was still able to gain a foothold in the court in the face of many difficulties from Wang Yun. Wang Yun never caught him once.

Wang Yun could only say a few words to punish Jia Xu, but he had no choice yet.

In just a few days, Wang Yun quickly replaced others and became Liu Xie's most trusted minister.

Every time you enter the palace, you don't need to report it to the eunuch. You can go directly to the palace to meet Liu Xie.

This is definitely the strangest father and son pair in the modern world.

The relationship is obviously that of father and son, but everyone in the court thinks that they are opposites.

A Situ and a cavalry general, if the father and son could connect with each other, there would be absolutely no room for anyone else to talk in the court.

But the fact is that this father and son made the ministers in the court feel extremely at ease. Even Liu Xie's meals have become more delicious these days.

With Wang Yun here, it seems that Wang Ding is no longer a threat.

Wang Ding also liked to see this situation. He didn't want to appear too much in front of Liu Xie and other ministers.

It's just right now, he can train his troops with peace of mind.

The time for the recruit competition has been determined and will be in three days.

Everyone is already gearing up, waiting for the recruit competition to begin.
