Chapter 229

The next morning, the head of the family went to the palace, and Wei Yuanzhao took Wei Furong with him.

Those family heads need to promise Wei Furong in front of Li Shimin that they will not assassinate Wei Hao in the future, and if they do, then His Majesty can kill their clan.

After Li Shimin learned of this situation, he also agreed, and an agreement was reached that morning.

The family wants to send the money to the palace before the first month of next year, and at the same time, Li Shimin said to those families that the previous account problems will not be investigated.

For those officials, the matter of dividends will no longer be pursued, and the matter will end here, and all the officials on the side of the Ministry of Civil Affairs will be arranged by Li Shimin, and the family shall not interfere, that is to say, there are no more children of the family on the side of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

After all the negotiations were settled, Li Shimin feasted the heads of those families in the palace, and now the court still needs them to stabilize the hearts of those officials, so Li Shimin invited them to dinner and show goodwill.

After those heads of the family left, Li Shimin was very happy, this time he won, and he won very beautifully.

"Your Majesty, it's a pity that Wei Hao didn't come today, if Wei Hao came, how good would it be?" Li Xiaogong said very happily.

"Well, this kid is grounded, Wei Furong won't let him come out, he still wants to kill those family owners, fortunately, Wei Hao and Wei Furong can stop him, otherwise, those family heads will be in trouble." Li Shimin sat there, nodded and said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, we haven't given Wei Hao an explanation for this matter, isn't that okay?" Li Daozong sat there and asked.

"Eh, those who committed the assassination will be exiled to Lingnan, and it is estimated that they will not live long, the head of the family, we can't kill him now, we can't give him an explanation, this kid, it is estimated that he will not help me in the future, hey!" When Li Shimin heard Li Daozong say this, he sighed helplessly, and now he can only treat Wei Hao badly.

"Your Majesty, this matter is not very fair to Wei Hao, and those generals and lords are a little dissatisfied." Li Xiaogong thought about it for a while and said.

"Are they dissatisfied? Why? ”

Li Shimin didn't understand what he meant by this, why did he still make the generals and princes dissatisfied, what does this have to do with them? When did Wei Hao get so close to them?

"Your Majesty, the family assassinated a county prince in Chang'an City, then they dared to assassinate a county duke, and those military generals and national dukes, but most of them were not from those families, and now they see Wei Hao so wronged and unfair, do you say they can have no opinion?

Li Jing was even more angry, but because of His Majesty's face, he didn't dare to be angry, these days, as far as I know, many princes have gone to find Li Jing, as long as Li Jing nods, those family masters, they dare to kill! Li Xiaogong said.

"What? This? When Li Shimin heard this, he was stunned, he really hadn't thought about it.

"Your Majesty, Wei Hao is not only your son-in-law, but also Li Jing's son-in-law, and this kid is also very good at fighting, and he is also bold, who do you say the generals don't like? Not to mention the generals, even the prison of the Criminal Department, who doesn't like him?

Your Majesty, in this matter, you still need to carefully consider how to appease Wei Hao, so that you can appease those generals, in fact, the minister is also a little dissatisfied, of course, the minister also knows that there is no way to do it now! Li Xiaogong said to Li Shimin.

"Well, you're right, I ignored this, Wei Hao is here to do things for me. I can't chill him, can I? Li Shimin nodded at this moment, and also attached importance to this matter in his heart.

"Your Majesty, it's okay now, after all, Wei Furong has come out, and he has forgiven those family masters on behalf of Wei Hao, no one can say anything, but everyone is still holding their breath in their hearts." Li Daozong said to Li Shimin with a wry smile.

"I know, I will give Wei Hao an answer, and I will also satisfy those lords, eh, there is no way, there are no readers!" Li Shimin said with a sigh at this moment.

"When will the library be built?" Li Daozong asked.

"How to build? Now in the winter, the address is chosen, and a school will be built in the annex, recruiting 300 people every year, this is the key, this matter, the Emperor is ready to be responsible, I am ready to let Wei Hao assist the Emperor to do this well! Li Shimin sat there and said worriedly.

He also hopes that these two things can be done quickly, so that there will be more hope.

And in Wei Hao's house, through Wei Furong, he knew about the court negotiations.

"Okay, there's nothing to do, didn't you say you didn't have much rest? There are only seven days left before the New Year, tomorrow is the New Year, what about you, just sleep at home, don't go anywhere, now everyone knows that you were grounded by the old man. Wei Furong looked at Wei Hao with a smile and said.

"Hehe, I can lie here and sleep every day, cool!" Wei Hao also said happily that it had been a long time since such a good cat had not been out at home.

The next day was Xiao Nian, Wei Furong was busy, there were so many fields, Wei Furong needed to go out and have a look, and at the same time go to see those tenants.

Those tenants had planted the family's land before, and now that the land has become Wei Hao's, then whether they are willing to continue renting or not, they still have to ask those tenants.

If they don't agree, he can recruit new tenants to come in and farm for his own family.

And Wei Hao's mother and aunts are also busy with the New Year.

It's Chinese New Year's Eve in a flash, Wei Hao needs to go to the ancestral hall to worship the ancestors, today is the big festival, and all the children of the family with heads and faces have to go over.

Wei Hao and Wei Furong also need to go, at this moment, there are hundreds of people standing in the ancestral hall of the Wei family, all of whom are people with some status in the family, either they are officials or rich, these people can be said to be the elite of the family.

"Patriarch, will Wei Hao come over today?" Wei Ting walked up to Wei Yuanzhao and asked.

"Yes, what about worshipping ancestors, Wei Hao doesn't understand, Wei Furong should understand, he should come!" Wei Yuanzhao nodded and said.

"Huh!" Wei Ting's brows were still a little worried.

"Haven't raised the money yet?" Wei Yuan looked at Wei Ting and said.

"Yes, Patriarch, I have too much!" Wei Ting looked at Wei Yuanzhao and said.

Wei Ting personally needs to pay 3,000 yuan to hand over to the family, and this money is apportioned, that is, for so many years, those of their children who have participated in the dividends have to take out the money according to the proportion.

"There's no way, the old man doesn't have any money, and I won't let you pay for it if you have money, the old man really can't help with this matter!" Wei Yuanzhao also said worriedly.

"Eh, I know, everyone actually doesn't have any opinions, it's just that the family doesn't have so much cash, and if you want to get so much money out, you can only sell some industries, do you know, now the land in Chang'an City has been reduced to 4 yuan per acre, and others are still required to buy it, and other families are now releasing a lot of land." Wei Ting looked at Wei Yuanzhao very depressed and said.

"Eh, can the old man not know?" Wei Yuanzhao said with a sigh.

At this time, Wei Hao and Wei Furong's carriage had already arrived at the door outside the ancestral hall.

"Hao'er, this is it, let's go!" Wei Furong got out of the carriage, carrying a basket of sacrificial items, and said to Wei Hao.

Wei Hao took it, and now those family members can't go in, so they can't mention it to Wei Furong

Stuff.

"Let's go, slow down, Dad, it just snowed hard yesterday, and the road is slippery!" Wei Hao held the basket in one hand and Wei Furong in the other.

Wei Furong is actually not very old, he is forty-five or sixteen years old, but he is fat! If you fall, it's enough to choke!

"Brother Jinbao and Hao'er are here?" The person standing on the outermost side saw Wei Furong and said with a smile.

"Eh, here, Hao'er calls uncle!" Wei Furong said happily and said to Wei Hao at the same time.

"Uncle!" Wei Hao nodded and shouted.

"Eh, get in, now everyone is waiting for you two!" The man standing there said happily.

He stood at the back, which means that in this, his status is the lowest, but Wei Furong's sentence made Wei Hao call uncle, which made him feel more face-saving.

"Eh, okay, you get busy first, let's go in first!" Wei Furong nodded with a smile, and then took Wei Hao all the way to the front.

The children of the Wei family, some call Wei Furong as a brother, and some even call Azu, too Azu!

"Dad, how old is our family?" Wei Hao looked at Wei Furong in shock and said.

"Eh, our family is slow to spread out, what can we do?" Wei Furong sighed quietly and mentioned this sad matter again.

Soon, Wei Furong and Wei Hao went to the innermost, and those standing in front were all the children of the Wei family as officials, they were the core of the family and protected the family.

"I've seen the patriarch!" Wei Furong said to Wei Yuanzhao, and Wei Hao also arched his hand.

"Well, Jinbao is here, Hao'er, you are also here, just wait for the two of you, Hao'er, put the sacrificial items on the table in front of you, and then take six incense sticks and light them and come over, it's time to worship the ancestors, after the ancestors, at noon, you children are all eating at my house, and in the evening, you go home to eat, all year round, and you can gather today!" Wei Yuanzhao said to Wei Hao.

"This!" Wei Hao looked at Wei Yuanzhao in embarrassment, today is the Chinese New Year, don't you want to spend it at home? Still going to the patriarch's house for dinner?

"Okay, the old man agreed first, Hao'er, just come back before dark, and then the family will have a reunion dinner, and you will have to accompany your father to celebrate the New Year!" Wei Furong nodded first and said.

"Ahh Wei Hao looked at Wei Furong, Chinese New Year's Eve, can he really go to someone else's house for dinner?

"Ah what, they are all children of the family, you will be crowned in the next year, and you will also enter the court as an official, and in the future, you also need to help each other with the children of the family!" Wei Furong said to Wei Hao.

"Oh, okay!" When Wei Hao heard Wei Furong say this, he didn't say anything, so he went to the front with the basket, put it down, and then prepared to smoke six incense sticks.

At this time, an official next to him immediately drew a good number and handed it to Wei Hao.

"Thank you!" Wei Hao nodded.

"Azu, you're welcome!" The official said to Wei Hao with a smile.

Wei Hao had goosebumps, this person was at least 40 years old, and he called himself Azu.

"Alright, all stand!" Wei Yuanzhao shouted.

Then the people outside also shouted to stand up, Wei Yuanzhao stood at the front, and at the same time pulled Wei Hao to stand on his left hand, and Wei Ting stood on his right hand.

"Prepare to worship your ancestors!" An elder of the Wei family shouted loudly, and everyone became solemn.

"Raise incense!" The elder shouted, Wei Hao, they held the incense high.

Then Wei Yuanzhao began to shout the sacrificial words, Wei Hao listened to it ignorantly, that is, talking about what happened in the family this year, and also mentioned Wei Hao, who was named the county prince, which was a great fortune for the family, and three children entered the court as officials, etc.

After reciting, he began to worship, Wei Hao saw others holding incense and bowing, and he also bowed, after bowing three times, Wei Yuanzhao began to insert incense, and after plugging it in, he asked Wei Hao to insert it, and then came one by one.

And the people outside can only be inserted in the incense burner outside, after inserting, Wei Yuanzhao carried the basket, the basket contained sacrificial supplies, and began to sacrifice alone, and then Wei Hao, this is carried out one by one, Wei Hao and Wei Furong together, Wei Furong carried the basket to worship the ancestors, Wei Hao followed behind and bowed, and planted incense!

After Wei Hao's sacrifice was finished, it was Wei Ting's family, and then one by one, Wei Hao finished the sacrifice first, and then went outside first.

"You will follow the patriarch later, my father will go back first, there are still things at home, and the children of the family who are officials will get together once a year, what about you, you have to participate now!" Wei Furong carried the basket and said to Wei Hao.

"Okay, I'll send you out, give it to me!" Wei Hao took the basket and said with Wei Furong in his arms.

"Well, don't talk nonsense, it's all a family, almost, forget it, let's not worry about those things, don't quarrel!" Wei Furong explained to Wei Hao and said.

"Don't worry!" Wei Hao nodded and said.

After sending Wei Furong away, Wei Hao waited inside, and when all the sacrifices were over, Wei Hao followed Wei Yuanzhao and went to Wei Yuanzhao's mansion with those officials and disciples.

"Wei Hao, let me tell you something, can you buy my land, I will give you 750 acres of land, you give me 3,000 yuan, they are all good land, although it is not in Chang'an, but the location is also okay, and it will take half a day to ride a horse at most!" Wei Ting pulled Wei Hao and whispered to Wei Hao.

"No, why are you selling your land, you have difficulties?" Wei Hao looked at Wei Ting incomprehensibly and asked.

"Tsk, isn't this to fill the hole in our family? I'm going to shell out 3,000 yuan! How can I have so much money for a while, the previous money, part of it was used to buy a house, and part of it was used to buy a field, so I bought 750 acres of land, no, it was hollowed out at once! Wei Ting said helplessly to Wei Hao.

"Oh. This thing, 3000 yuan, you don't have much money in your own family? Wei Hao thought of what was going on, so he asked.

"How can there be so much, the family is 100 yuan!" Wei Ting said worriedly.

"Okay, don't sell it, after the year, come to my house, I'll give you 3,000 yuan, and when you have money, give it back to me, my family is not short of land, and now my father is still worried, so much land, how to manage it is a problem!" Wei Hao said to Wei Ting.

"Then I'll take it seriously, I really don't have it, I really don't have much money left in the past few years." Wei Ting looked at Wei Hao in surprise and said.

"I can still tell lies and fill this hole, otherwise, no one knows when this matter will break out, and when the time comes, it will kill you, you are now in Shangshu Province, and in a few years, it is possible to serve as one of the six Shangshu, but you can't ruin your future because of such a thing!" Wei Hao said to Wei Ting.

"That's right, everyone was worried before, but now Your Majesty has also said that what happened before filling the hole, the past is not to blame, so what else do you have to say, it's better than going to jail, now Wei Qiang is still in the cell!" Wei Ting nodded and spoke.

"Still in the cell? He doesn't have much of an official, why hasn't he got it out yet? When Wei Hao heard this, he looked at Wei Ting and asked.

"This matter, there is no interrogation yet, how can it be released? It is estimated that it is difficult for him, I heard that those people who were arrested are likely to be exiled to Lingnan, they are unlucky! Ay! Wei Ting said with a sigh.

And Wei Yuanzhao, who was walking in front, had actually been listening to the two of them, and the officials behind him were also listening, after all, the two of them were talking and others didn't dare to interject at all.

"Oh, okay, when the time comes, I'll go find the book of the criminal department, it's really not good, just go to my father and let him out, a little clerk, how big a deal can it be!" Wei Hao nodded and said.

"There are two other people, they are Wei Shen and Wei Qing, you have to think of a way!" At this time, Wei Yuanzhao looked back at Wei Hao and said.

"What level are they? How did I not know? Wei Hao looked at Wei Yuanzhao and asked.

"They are all the last to do things, and they have also been arrested, both of them are from the eighth grade, and they have only been in the office for three years!" Wei Yuanzhao spoke.

"No, you're too bad, aren't you?" Wei Hao said to Wei Yuanzhao, it's only been three years for them to do such a thing.

"What do you know, the Ministry of Civil Affairs was promoted very quickly before, and there are benefits, to be able to enter the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the old man has worked hard, and he also begged Wei Guifei, who knows that this is the result, if you go to fish people, even the two of them will be fished out!" Wei Yuan looked at Wei Hao and said.

Wei Hao looked at Wei Yuanzhao depressedly, he thought it was one person, but now there are three people, so it's not easy to fish.

"And that... Can you talk in your cell? Their family has been begging me, hoping that I can send them something, but you say, I can't get in, Your Majesty won't let me! You see... Can you..."Wei Ting looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"Is there a place in the prison of the Criminal Department that I can't enter? What to send? Wei Hao heard it, smiled and said.

I am not familiar with other places, but I am quite familiar with the prison of the Criminal Department.

"Just some clothes and books!" Wei Ting said to Wei Hao, hoping that Wei Hao could help send him over.
