Chapter 138: The Truth (I)
After the early dynasty, as soon as King Rui Liang Yinhuan walked out of the Showa Palace, he hurriedly called Wei Ming, the minister of Zhongshu Ling, who was walking in front. "Lord Wei! Lord Wei, please stay! ”
Wei Ming looked back and saw that it was King Rui, who had just returned to Beijing, who had just returned to Beijing, so he also stopped and said respectfully: "I don't know what Your Highness commands?" ”
"I don't dare to command." Liang Yinhuan smiled modestly, "It's just that there are some things I want to ask Master Wei." ”
Wei Ming smiled heartily, he still had a good impression of this young prince, so the atmosphere of the conversation between the two was obviously much more relaxed and calm than before. Wei Ming bowed and said, "Your Highness is serious!" If Your Highness has any questions, the old man must know everything. ”
Liang Yinhuan smiled and said: "My lord also knows that the position of the secretary of the Ministry of Industry has been vacant, and there is a shortage of manpower. As a courtier, of course, he has to solve problems for the emperor, so this king will first discuss with Lord Wei to see if there is a suitable candidate in the court. ”
"It turned out that this was the case, His Royal Highness didn't say it, and the old man really forgot about it. I'm old, and this brain is really not good. Wei Ming lowered his head and smiled, but he didn't hide the satisfied look in his eyes, "But during the complete period, this candidate is not something that can be said to be available for a while, and the old man still needs to think about it before he can answer His Highness." ”
"My lord is very right, after all, he is a second-class member of the imperial court, so he naturally has to be cautious. What's more, the current situation is complicated, and the details really need to be carefully scrutinized. ”
Although Liang Yinhuan said tactfully, Wei Ming clearly understood his words, and said with a smile: "Your Highness understands." ”
Liang Yinhuan lowered his head and thought for a while, and said: "Then let's do it, these Japanese kings and Lord Wei will think about it separately, and in three days, we can put forward our favorite candidates and discuss them together." ”
Wei Ming thought about it and felt that this method was very reliable, so he nodded and responded: "Okay, in three days, the old man will go to His Highness's mansion in person." ”
Liang Yinhuan smiled extremely modestly and politely, bowed his hand again, and said, "There is Lord Lao Wei, farewell." Then he turned and left.
Wei Ming looked at King Rui who was gradually walking away, and his heart was mixed, and he couldn't tell what kind of feeling it was. Wei Ming knew that Rui Wang was a talented young man, and what was even more rare was that he had a mind and ambition to serve the world, but it was a pity... The mistake of a thought back then led him down the wrong path. But fortunately, time has passed, and King Rui can still turn back, and he can be regarded as living up to the high expectations of the first emperor for him! ――
Three days later, at the end of the hour, King Rui had just finished dinner, and he only ate a few small bites before feeling like chewing wax, so he put down the dishes and chopsticks boringly, and simply waited for Wei Ming's arrival in the main hall. Since he was not sure about the next gaffe, he was in a state of anxiety all day long, and naturally even his appetite was worse than usual.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Wei Ming to come to the Ruiwang Mansion alone, because Wei Ming wanted to be alone and didn't have the habit of bringing a guard entourage, so today he just brought a small guy who drove a car.
Liang Yinhuan learned from Wu Sheng that Wei Ming had come, and immediately got up and went out to greet him. "Lord Wei, let you go on such a trip, this king really can't help it. They all said that the king could send someone to pick you up in your house, but you just said that you would not say anything! ”
Wei Ming said nonchalantly: "My old man hasn't reached the point where he can't walk, so he's so squeamish." His Royal Highness King Rui's body has just recovered, don't stand in the entrance and blow the cold wind. ”
Liang Yinhuan smiled very lightly, but he didn't mean to welcome Wei Ming into the mansion, but raised his hand to the outside of the house, and signaled: "It's a good night today, this king may not have been out of the house for a long time, why don't you accompany this king to the tearoom to sit?" Let's discuss things while drinking tea. ”
It's all this time, how can there be a tea room open?
Although Wei Ming was slandered in his heart, after all, King Rui had already spoken, and it was not good for him to refute other people's face in person. Besides, things are not the same wherever you talk about them, so Wei Ming followed Liang Yinhuan's wishes and sat behind him in the carriage prepared by Liang Yinhuan in advance.
The carriage stopped after about a cup of tea, and Wei Ming was shocked when he got out of the car. The surrounding lights are red and green, the traffic is busy, people come and go in an endless stream, and from time to time there is a soft shout of the women, what kind of teahouse is this, it is clearly a brothel, and it is also a famous brothel in Beijing!
Wei Ming's face turned green with anger, he thought that King Rui had reformed himself, but he didn't expect that his nature was still difficult to change, even if he liked beauty, he brought him an old man to this kind of place, which was really insulting to his reputation in his life!
Wei Ming turned around and looked at Liang Yinhuan angrily, and said, "It turns out that this is the 'teahouse' that His Highness said, please forgive the old man for not being blessed, so I will leave!" ”
Liang Yinhuan's rejection of Wei Ming was not surprising, after all, Wei Ming was honest and clean, and he had always been the most disdainful of this kind of land of wind and snow. However, Liang Yinhuan didn't bring Wei Ming to have fun today, so he didn't think it was angry, and patiently explained: "Don't misunderstand Lord Wei, this king didn't bring you to have fun, but wanted to take adults to meet someone, a person who will regret it for a lifetime if he doesn't see it!" ”
"Joke, how can there be someone the old man wants to see in this kind of place." Wei Ming sneered, the disdain in his eyes clearly visible.
"I'm afraid my lord is too arbitrary." Liang Yinhuan smiled meaningfully, "Your Excellency may wish to go in with this king to have a look, if there is anything that makes your adult feel unhappy or uncomfortable, your adult can leave immediately, and this king will not stop you." ”
Wei Ming saw that Liang Yinhuan was speaking very seriously, and he didn't seem to be a benefactor who came to Flower Street and Willow Lane. Moreover, Liang Yinhuan's mysterious attitude of wanting to speak and stopping did successfully arouse Wei Ming's curiosity, although he pretended to be disdainful on the surface, there seemed to be a voice in his heart that was always encouraging him.
So, Wei Ming finally followed Liang Yinhuan into the Yanyu Building.
Liang Yinhuan really didn't break his promise, he took Wei Ming into a side room on the second floor, not only did not have good food and wine, but also no enchanting girl, but an empty room.
Liang Yinhuan walked into it by himself, did it unhurriedly, and was silent.
At this time, Wei Ming felt that things were getting stranger and stranger, and finally couldn't hold back his temperament and asked, "Who did Your Highness bring the old man to see?" ”
Liang Yinhuan showed an unfathomable smile and said, "Lord Wei, don't be impatient, after a while, you will naturally know!" (To be continued.) )
