Inner house, main courtyard.

As soon as she returned here, Song Xinyou couldn't bear the joy, so she sat on the chair in the yard, looking up quietly at the sky, thinking silently.

Wang Hongyi defeated Wei Cundong, forced Du Gongzhen to surrender, seized Hongze and Dingyuan counties. This news may not be of importance to other women, but she knew it.

I knew in my heart that this time it was really a big leap.

"Congratulations to Madam, Madam, the general won a great victory this time. I am afraid that I will call you the Princess of Shu in a long time!"

As soon as He Gui left, several maids who had been dowry came over and said flatteringly.

Hearing what they said, Song Xinyou's eyes showed joy, but she deliberately raised her face and scolded her: "It's fine to say this in front of me, don't go out and say it randomly. This is only once, so I won't be the case."

"I understand, madam!"

"Madam, I will say it in front of you. I dare not say anything outside." These servants and maids responded with a smile. Seeing their appearance, Song Xinyou had to shake his head and stop pursuing it.

These people are not as good as ordinary servants. They are brought from the Song family. They have served them when they are young ladies. They are shorter for several years and longer for more than ten years. They even hugged her when they are born. They are her confidants and are just jokes. After she reminds her for a few words, she will never say more.

These people have been with her for quite some time, and they are all literate and have some intelligence, so they know what to do and what not to do.

"I guess these things have been known here, and my father should get the news." Song Xinyou waved his hand to order the servant to retreat, and then picked up the pen and wanted to write it on a roll of paper.

But when the pen got on the paper, hesitated and finally placed the pen aside.

She originally wanted to pass news to her father's uncle, but when she thought of her connections, Song Xinyou stopped this idea again.

She is the main wife of the General's Mansion. She gave birth to the eldest son easily and had a good relationship with the General. In this case, it is best to stabilize everything in the present.

Some things, whether to do or not, are of little significance, but they are likely to have an impact on the relationship between husband and wife. Therefore, unless necessary, she rarely sends people to contact her father and brother.

This is to show Wang Hongyi an attitude that no matter what the circumstances are, he is already a member of the Wang family and will never do anything that harms the interests of the Wang family.

"Madam, the young master is awake and crying non-stop, as if looking for you." A servant outside suddenly said carefully.

Song Xinyou came to her senses and thought of her naughty young son, a gentle look appeared on her face.

"What a naughty kid." She sighed, stood up and walked out.

"The young master is still crying now?"

"Yes, Madam, no matter what she gave him, she was just crying, just like the previous few times."

"Forget it, this kid, there is also reward for this night. Come and make a charter for me and tell me back. If there is no problem, it will be approved for execution." The voices gradually faded away, leaving only the table without any ink and white paper. When the wind blows in the window, it moved a few times and then calms down again.

At this time, the old butler was talking to someone in the new house of the Song family. Then the old butler entered the mansion, and the man continued to wait outside the door.

After a while, the old butler returned from the door and took the mansion again with him.

The gate slowly closed with the joint efforts of people inside. There were not many people on both sides of the street, so no one noticed this scene.

"Please follow me here." The old butler said to the people behind him without looking back, his pace accelerated a lot, and his destination pointed directly at the master's study.

The man behind him was silent, just following him silently.

The old housekeeper still has some impression of this person. He has been here several times and received him either as the eldest master or the second master. It can be seen that this person's identity is extraordinary among slaves.

The old housekeeper led the people, occasionally saying a word, and silently leading the way in front. Soon, the two of them came outside Song Han's study.

"Uncle, the person has been brought here." The old butler said respectfully outside.

"Very good, go down and do your business and let him come in alone." After a moment, Song Han's voice came from inside.

"No." The old butler responded and withdrew a few steps.

Before leaving, wink at the guards who were a distance from the study, and nodded clearly. The old butler left with confidence.

The man led by the old housekeeper was young and light, but very calm. After Song Han ordered, he pushed open the door and walked into the study.

At this time, there was only Song Han in the study room. He was sitting behind the desk and holding a book in his hand.

Seeing him enter, Song Han nodded lightly and said, "Are you back?"

"I've seen the Lord." As soon as the young man entered the study, he gently covered the door, fell to his knees and saluted Song Han.

Song Han said, "Get up and talk about your gains this time."

"Yes, Lord." The man stood up quickly and stood there not far or near Song Han, reporting all the information he had learned to Song Han.

The main reason is this - Wang Hongyi defeated Wei Cundong, forced Du Gongzhen to surrender, seized Hongze, and Dingyuan two counties.

After listening, Song Han didn't say anything for a while.

I saw him close his eyes and listen. After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes: "You should step back first, and go to the account office to receive a silver reward of 30 taels of patterns."

"I thank you for the rewards of the Lord." The man hurriedly expressed his gratitude. Seeing that Song Han seemed to want to be alone, he hurriedly withdrew carefully.

The guards on both sides saw him walking away, and the side approached the study rooms and continued to guard them.

After a while, Song Han's voice came from the study again: "Come on, go and invite the second master to my study."

"Yes, Lord." An escort responded outside, his footsteps gradually faded away.

Song Han sat alone in the study with a calm expression on his face and extremely excited.

"I really didn't expect that I could do this step. It develops faster than I thought." He said to himself, tapping his fingers on the table, and then he remained silent.

After a while, the footsteps outside gradually sounded, and the study door was pushed open from outside and closed again.

Song Han raised his head, looked at his second brother, Song Heng and said, "Second brother, there is a news that I want to tell you."

Seeing that his brother was hiding his excitement in his calm words, Song Heng frowned slightly, and then suddenly said: "Is there news about General Dingyuan?"

A stick of incense stick is enough for Song Han to explain things clearly. Obviously, the more he talks, the more excited Song Han becomes. The excitement he had been suppressed before was not covered up in front of his brothers.

"In less than a month, we first defeated Wei Cundong, then successfully surrendered Du Gongzhen, and also captured Dingyuan County... Haha! Now my son-in-law will definitely unify Shu!" Song Han was very happy about this, and when he spoke, he smiled happily.

Especially Wang Hongyi's move defeated Wei Cundong, and Wei Cundong couldn't hold on for much time. He wanted to avenge the Song family members who were killed 71 people, and he was just around the corner. As the head of the Song family, Song Han was extremely happy.

Song Heng looked at Song Han unable to sit in the study and said with a smile: "Brother, to be honest, the last time I saw you, I must have seen you before getting married. I miss you. So many years have passed..."

Song Heng is in a good mood recently. Not to mention his own business, he has been very popular in Wenyang Changding County and has received support from Wang Hongyi. It can be said that among the merchants in the territory under Wang Hongyi's jurisdiction, the Song family is the most prominent.

Moreover, in Chengdu, in order to avoid Wei Cundong's suspicion, this commercial institution did not dare to be very conspicuous. Now there is no such concern. It has successively contacted the Song family branches scattered in various places and developed publicly. The commercial institution created by the two brothers is not only regaining its vitality but also stronger than when he was in Chengdu.

Someone once persuaded that this wealth was too conspicuous, but Song Han said: "It is serious for our Song family to interfere in military and political affairs, but this money is fine. There are only rewards for money in all dynasties. How could we copy away the relatives of our countrymen who have a lot of money?"

Now he heard that his son-in-law will revenge and his son-in-law will win repeatedly and hope that Shu will be unified. At this time, he was in a very good mood.

Song Han had no time to understand the humor of his brothers. Suddenly he thought of something, frowned and said, "By the way, I heard about something, the court issued an order to reprimand General Dingyuan. Will this matter have any impact on General Dingyuan? No matter what, this is the emperor after all..."

Seeing that his brother was concerned, Song Heng sighed, knocked on the table, and said with a smile: "Brother, you are happy for a moment and are confused. Will General Dingyuan not think of what you and I think of?"

"At this time, the world is in chaos, and what can we do if we go on a journey? It's just a competition among the heroes. Looking at the counties in Shu, who can accept the order of reprimanding? Or, if he issues this order, who can serve the king?"

When Song Han heard this, he looked at his brother in surprise and woke up. Didn’t he understand this principle? He was just a moment of joy and was confused. He laughed silently and with a faint smile, he took a snack, put it carefully in his mouth, sat aside, swallowed the tea, and somehow, he felt relieved and sat on the chair.

"You are right. I'm confused for my brother and I think the emperor too high." Song Han sighed: "Now, the land is competing for dragons, and each state has its own restraints. Only Shu is closed and there is no restraint. As long as a unified wise ruler appears, there is almost no suspense."

Song Hengyi smiled: "Brother, you were just fascinated by it just now, and now you understand."

Speaking of this, he said with some concern: "It is easy to be the king of Shu, but it is difficult to be the emperor. I wonder if General Dingyuan can still maintain rationality and enterprising spirit after the great victory? If he only satisfies Shu as the king, the future kingship will not last long."

Shu has a vast territory, superior economic conditions, and relatively closed and independent geography.

The economic strength of Shu has always been in the upper reaches of the country.

"Shu Zhi" says: The fertile land is thousands of miles, the soil is fertile, and the benefits of fish, salt, copper and silver are also the benefits of floating water and water. The benefits of salt, copper and households are dedicated to mountains and rivers, and they live in a sufficient amount of people, so they are rich and prosperous..."

Shu has the guards of Jiange and Hanzhong, and Kuimen and Sanxia are dangerous, easy to defend but difficult to attack. But because of this, Shu kings of all dynasties have been locked up by dragons and do not want to make progress, and often protect themselves in a corner.
