Chapter 134: Confrontation I
Xiao Zhuzi smiled all over his face, and soon said with palpitations: "County Lord, the situation was really intense at that time, and the minions couldn't understand what the adults were talking about, but the minions remembered the conversation between them, so they said to you." He tried his best to recall what he had seen and heard, and tried to restore the scene so that Zhao Shu knew carefully.
"At the time, it was like this......"
At the end of the day, the sky was already white, and if this hour was placed in the previous month, the road on the ground would be faintly visible without lights, but it was about the beginning of autumn, and at this hour, the noon gate was still covered in darkness.
The palace lanterns on the side of the road have added a lot of popularity in the night, and from a distance, there are already shadows and figures shaking.
The carriage of the Wei family was slow, and the sound of the horse's hooves came to the noon gate, and the ministers were suspicious, Lord Wei had never driven the carriage of the Wei family in the early dynasty, and many times they came on horseback, nor from this direction, but generally from the direction of the command camp of the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses, what happened today?
There are strange things every year, and this year is especially numerous.
Several officials who did not participate in the partisan dispute gathered together and began to talk in a low voice, "A while ago, it was rumored that the third son of the Wang family had been beheaded by Lord Wei Ting Siwei at the entrance of the vegetable market, and then the eldest grandson of Lord Yang's family was imprisoned. ”
"Yes, yesterday I heard that the Huo family entered Beijing and lived in the Yongwang Mansion, please don't doubt your ears, it is indeed the Yongwang Mansion! How did this great good thing fall on that ridiculous prince? Why didn't I invite the Huo family? The man sighed.
Without waiting for them to digest this shocking fact, another person said: "I heard that Lord Qiu Ji Shiqiu personally went out of the city ten miles to greet the Yan family, Lord Xie has returned to Beijing, Lord Xie and Lord Yang do not deal with each other, and now Lord Yang is still kneeling at the east gate, and now the court and the middle are all Lord Xie's world." ”
"What do you mean by that?" Several people asked in unison.
The officer who spoke stroked his goatee and looked around, seeing that no one was paying attention to them, and that they were far away from the other officials. Only then did he say in a low voice: "I heard that the Xie family has a secret relationship with the Yongwang Mansion, and now the Yongwang has invited the Huo family, and Lord Xie has invited the Yan family." The Yan family lives in the south of the Yangtze River, and I am not familiar with it, but the Yan family in Jiangnan is after the great painter Yan Youyuan of the previous dynasty, and the three families of Xie, Huo, and Yan are all amazing people, and the three giants get together. Looking at it, who in the DPRK and China can resist tyranny? It's not going to be Lord Xie's world. ”
When several officials heard him say this, they shook their heads and sighed a few times, and some of them couldn't help it, and said, "You forgot a little, the last time Lord Xie came to the court, do you remember?" ”
"What?" The man asked.
"The last time Lord Xie came to the court, he not only asked Lord Liu Huanliu to investigate the fraud case of the imperial examination, but also had a secret conversation with Lord Xie for a long time. Master Xie went to Jiangnan now, and it can be seen that the biggest winner is the current emperor. ”
"Shh Several people hurriedly made a silent movement, and saw that the Wei family's carriage had stopped not far away, and several people pretended to look elsewhere, but the rest of the eyes were watching the Wei family's carriage.
I saw that the carriage curtain was lifted, the fairy wind was bonely, and Wei Caitao, who had a gentle temperament, poked his head out of the carriage, and the house slave had already moved the ladder and put it next to the carriage, he glanced at the ministers, and Shi Shiran walked down the ladder.
"Good morning, gentlemen." Get off the carriage. Wei Caitao smiled, that smile made people feel like a spring breeze, arched his hand and saluted, and held a folding fan in his hand.
It is clear that he is already middle-aged. But he was stunned to be able to make that personable demeanor, and he compared all the officials present.
The ministers were secretly jealous in their hearts, their wives, daughters, sisters, and sisters were infatuated with Wei Caitao back then, hateful, hateful.
"Mr. Wei, morning." Everyone chose to play haha, and Xie Yun, Qiu Jishi and other chief officials have not yet arrived. No one dared to talk to Wei Caitao, for fear that Wei Caitao would refuse and lose face, Wei Caitao seemed to be gentle but was actually a very arrogant person.
Wei Caitao glanced at it, the rebel was not there, the emperor valued him so much, he came so late.
He couldn't find Wei Tingsi, so he felt a little bored, and was about to find someone to say a few words, but he saw two carriages coming, from two directions.
Someone whispered: "Come on, Lord Xie and His Royal Highness King Yong's car." "I was so excited that I was spitting.
But no one cared, I saw Xiao Zhuzi unhurriedly take the ladder from the carriage and put it next to the carriage, and Xie Qian on the opposite side also did the same as him, took off the ladder and put it next to the carriage, and then lifted the curtain.
"Sir, it's here."
Xie Yun and Yan Shiren came in the same car, and in order to show their attention, Xie Yun said: "Brother Yan, please." Xie Yun made a gesture of please.
Yan Shiren is not as old as Xie Yun, and he is the second master in the family, so he is very humble and also makes a gesture of please, "Brother Xie, please." ”
This scene was seen by Sun Ganzheng, who arrived later, his face was like frost and he snorted coldly, and wanted to stab Xie Yun twice, Xie Yun got out of the car first, and Yan Shiren followed.
On the other side, King Yong lifted his skirt and got out of the carriage, but Huo Baichuan, who was following him, jumped out of the carriage on the other side.
"Huo Xian's nephew." Yan Shiren stroked his short and capable beard and greeted Huo Baichuan with a smile, "After decades of absence, I don't know if Ling Zun is good?" ”
Huo Baichuan held a piece of hay in his hand, casually inserted it into the belt around his waist, arched his hand and bowed, the smile on his face didn't know whether it was true or false, just because his face was handsome, and his smile and non-smile were so charming.
"The little nephew has seen Uncle Yan Shi." He bowed, stood up and walked to Yan Shiren's side after the salute, and the two brothers leaned on Yan Shiren's shoulder with their right hands, and said: "My father is still the same, he has nothing to fish, otherwise he will raise birds, if Uncle Shi is free, he can go to Bianzhou for a walk, my father's pool of brocade fish is fat." ”
Just now, I saw a good noble son of the family, and in a blink of an eye, his style changed immediately, everyone was full of black lines, he didn't pay attention to the actions of the occasion, as well as the idle posture, uninhibited smile, and the style of the sons of the family did not match at all, but none of the people who watched dared to say a word, they didn't agree with reason, they didn't obey the etiquette, and they didn't know the etiquette.
Someone else muttered in a low voice, "Huo Gongzi really has the demeanor of a famous man, and his language is also funny." ”
If this gesture is changed to other sons, the evaluation will not be the style of celebrities, but disrespect and cynicism.
I don't know if Yan Shiren cares about Huo Baichuan's uninhibited posture in his heart, he has a smile on his face, and he also sighs with emotion. "Time flies, in a blink of an eye, the virtuous nephew has been crowned, I want to think that the old man traveled to Bianzhou, and the virtuous nephew has not yet been born. Now that the virtuous nephew has started a family, we are old. ”
"Not old or old, Uncle Shi is amazingly talented, and the "Guannanzhou" written a few years ago is elegant and profound. My father often said in front of me that Uncle Shi was a great talent in the world, and he was a model for us boys to learn from. ”
He spoke and behaved like a civilian, and the people around him were dumbfounded, but Yan Shiren laughed and pointed at him: "Like, like your father, hahaha." ”
Everyone listened to the sentence in their hearts, so it is so, Huo Gongzi really doesn't put on a show.
After speaking, Yan Shiren dressed up and saw King Yong next to him, and hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted, "The grass people ask the prince for peace." ”
The ministers looked at each other. After a few glances at each other, they hurriedly followed and saluted, "Weichen greets the prince." "Now Yongwangfu is different from the past, not only has the Huo family been invited, but he is also the eldest son of the Huo family, and this is the future helmsman of the Huo family.
Although it doesn't look so stable, the Huo family is the Huo family, no matter what the appearance is, the heart is inside.
Unconsciously The courtiers' hearts were much more sincere, and King Yong was shocked, these people used to bow with pretenses, but now they said so neatly and carefully. It was the first time he had experienced it for himself.
"Mr. Yan doesn't need to be polite, this king has admired Mr. for a long time, and it is really worth the trip to see him today." He said that he bowed seriously, and only after the salute did he say to the ministers: "Your Excellency does not need to be polite. ”
Everyone also sighed in their hearts, and His Royal Highness Yongwang became not ridiculous. The way they talk and behave is the same as before, which is really strange and strange.
Yan Shiren was just a routine greeting, and after the salute, he looked at Sun Ganzheng on the side, Sun Ganzheng had a cold face, pretending to look elsewhere, Fang Youzhi and Ji Dongxue were standing beside him, as well as several other officials, all of whom were former Xie Sun and his party, and now they are all watching.
Speaking from the heart, if Lord Sun and Lord Xie turn their faces, what they are thinking about privately is to wait and see what happens, if Lord Sun and Lord Xie fight, and Lord Sun loses, they will throw themselves into the arms of Lord Xie, if Lord Xie loses, then it is just right to divide Lord Xie's real power in the court, and then enhance the strength of the family.
Sun Ganzheng turned his head when he heard this, squeezed out a smile, and saw Yan Shiren at this moment, no matter whether Xie Yun changed his mind or not, he had to turn his face with Xie Yun, the two of them had supported each other for decades, and when Yan Shiren suddenly intervened, he Xie Yun really didn't take him seriously.
At first, when Xie Yun first went down to Jiangnan, he sometimes secretly rejoiced, if he could invite the Yan family, their Sun Xie party would be able to overpower Wang Yang's party, and he didn't believe that the Yan family would agree to implement the new policy today, but Wang Kuanqi stepped across, and this time the first party of Qiu Ji became bigger in an instant.
Qiu Jishi said on many occasions that the outline of the dynasty is changing, the law should be newly written, the family has too many privileges, this person can not be deeply acquainted, and Wang Jiyang took over the Wang family, Wang Jiyang is not a high grade when he first arrived, and the Wang family is in a mess, so there is nothing to be afraid of for the time being, but behind him stands Wei Tingsi, who is the favorite minister of the court, and this guy only can't think of what he can't do without him.
At this point, Yan Shiren should have been more happy to join him, but he had already gotten the news that it was the second master of the Yan family, and the second master of the Yan family had written a book, which was "Guan Nanzhou" that Huo Baichuan said just now, and he had also read this book, which implied that the privileges of the family were too much!
It's just eating inside and out, and I don't cherish the blessings left by my ancestors!
At this time, King Yong invited the Huo family and lived in the Yongwang Mansion, although he knew little about the Huo family, but living in the Yongwang Mansion was a good signal, that was with the emperor.
"Lord Sun, I haven't seen you for many years, but my demeanor is still the same." When they were young, the two had a relationship, but Sun Gan was already an adult, and Yan Shiren had not yet reached the crown.
Sun Gan is perfunctory arching his hand, clearly, clearly expressing his dissatisfaction with Yan Shiren, he is older, even if he is arrogant, no one dares to say anything, not to mention that his surname is Sun.
Yan Shiren was not angry, he still continued to greet with a smile on his face, Wei Caitao stood in front of the carriage, his hands behind his back, dressed in gray, his posture was straight and slender, like a green bamboo between the green mountains and green waters, leisurely.
Wei Caitao kept looking at Yan Shiren and greeting everyone, the corners of his mouth raised to give people a smile like a spring breeze, seeing Yan Shiren looking over, he nodded slightly, that is, he bowed his head slightly, and with a shallow smile, he compared all the officials over thirty years old in front of the noon gate.
Those under the age of thirty are Yongwang and Huo Baichuan.
"Presumably this is Mr. Wei, who is known as Xu Gong in the north of the city?" "Warring States Policy, Qi Ce I" 'Xu Gong in the north of the city, the beautiful one of the Qi country'.
Wei Caitao arched his hand, "Brother Yan praised it." The two began another round of praise for each other, Yan Shiren sighed that the years were unforgiving, and now he has gray temples...... And so on and so forth.
In fact, it is not a thing to be happy for a man to be praised for his beauty, but Wei Caitao has been listening to it for decades, and he has already been as calm as water.
Between the words, a jujube red BMW came to the dust, and immediately the young man was heroic, wearing red-edged silver armor, and a silver-toned cloak with the same red edge hanging behind him on the cloak buckle on his chest, constantly flying with the wind.
His charming eyes are somewhat similar to Wei Caitao, but they are different from Wei Caitao's gentle and elegant fairy wind and leisure, he is like a sharp sword, he can be unsheathed and plunged straight into Yunfeng at any time, and his domineering momentum makes people dare not look directly.
Wei Tingsi stopped, glanced at Wei Caitao, and turned his cold eyes to King Yong, when he looked at King Yong, he was already a beautiful man who turned over and dismounted and fell to the ground, his hand on the sword at his waist, he only bowed his head, and said, "I have seen the prince." ”
After that, he stood there like an icicle on an ice peak, ignoring no one.
Wei Caitao looked at such a son, trembled with anger, felt that he had lost face, and pointed at Wei Tingsi and said, "Rebel! ”
Between father and son, the father called his son a rebel in public, and his face was blue with anger, as if it was not the first time, everyone held their breath, including Sun Ganzheng Xie Yun and others, Wei Tingsi is like a wolf, don't provoke it.
Listening to the voice, Wei Tingsi slowly turned his head, and looked at Wei Caitao with a pair of sword-like eyes, Wei Caitao instinctively took a step back, and the leisurely temperament of the fairy wind bones suddenly weakened a lot, and after taking a step back, he felt that he had lost face, so he stood back again, "Rebel!" Why not go home! Originally, the big truths he was going to say in his heart instinctively choked back after seeing those eyes.
"Back home? Which province? He clearly just said softly, but everyone felt that the surroundings were a little colder, and there were small officials from the last family who hurriedly hid behind people, Lord Wei had a strange temper, moody, and trusted by the emperor, without a strong backing, he couldn't be provoked.
"You don't return home all year round, and you haven't taken a look at your grandfather when he's sick, why are you so unfilial?" Wei Caitao remembered that his father was the only one who could hold down this rebellious son.
Wei Tingsi's face was even colder, and his body seemed to melt into solid ice, he went to see his grandfather as soon as he returned to Beijing, and this father didn't know that he went to see his grandfather before entering the palace to see the emperor! What a good father to him!
said in public that his son was not filial, and everyone outside the noon gate had no one except Wei Caitao, Huo Baichuan turned his head and asked King Yong in a low voice, "Lord Wang, is the surname Wei really the biological father of the favored minister Wei Tingsi?" (To be continued.) )
