1347. Heavy rain in the city of Daliang
Dark night, Daliang City.
Heavy rain and lightning fell in the sky, and the palace in the city of Great Liang.
Wei Ying sat by the window alone and watched the heavy rain, his eyes looking at the heavy rain, not knowing what he was thinking.
And at this moment he heard a commotion outside, as if it was the sound of a fight, and he stood up and prepared to come out to take a look.
But before he could go out, a group of black-clothed guards rushed in, Wei Ying was stunned, he never imagined that someone would dare to break into his room like this.
He snorted coldly, "Who are you?" How can you enter the depths of this palace? ”
These people stood in two rows, only to see a man in a black dragon robe walk in, Wei Ying looked at the man in front of him: "Wei Si is you?" What do you mean by bringing someone to break into me in the middle of the night? ”
Wei Si looked at Wei Ying and said lightly: "Father, you are old!" ”
Wei Ying was stunned, he has been a monarch for so many years, and he has participated in the struggle between the court and the middle, even if the Wei clan is peaceful, there are still some struggles more or less, and Wei Ying can become this monarch, he has more or less seen and participated in this struggle.
A sentence Father, you are old, how deep is the meaning in this sentence, he Wei Ying understood it as soon as he heard it, and Wei Ying laughed when he heard it: "Do you want to kill your father and usurp the throne?" ”
This kind of thing of killing one's father has never happened here in the Wei people, because no one dares to do this, after all, the Wei clan has filial piety in the education of their children, and the first thing they educate is filial piety.
"Father, the son is not willing to do it himself, I hope the father chooses for himself!" After speaking, I saw a guard holding an iron plate, and on the iron plate was a pot of wine and a white silk.
, Wei Ying snorted coldly: "Do you think you can kill me with this little person?" ”
"There are three thousand forbidden troops in the Wei Palace, and they come here to inspect once an hour!" Wei Ying looked directly at Wei Si and said.
Although Wei Ying came to his residence with more than a hundred people and killed the guards here, the Wei Palace was very large, and there were three thousand Praetorian Guards stationed in it, all of whom were the elite of the army.
The force is amazing and well-equipped, this is the army directly under Wei Ying, or the army directly under the emperor of the Jin State, and this is also the person who guards the safety of the palace.
Once discovered, the rebellion was largely a failure.
"Father, you also said that it will take an hour, as long as you die within this hour!" Wei Si said lightly.
Before coming to the Wei Palace, he was prepared, and he also knew that seeking power and usurping the throne, killing his father, this kind of thing, if he was not prepared, there was no place to die.
He knew that he couldn't buy off the entire Forbidden Army, but there were one or two scum in each unit, and he bought off the commander of the Forbidden Army, and after his patrol left, he broke into Wei Ying's residence.
Kill the two guards outside the door, and then replace them with their own people, rush in by themselves, and kill their father, as long as Wei Ying is dead, as the heir to the throne, it is a matter of course to succeed to the throne, without the support of those ministers.
And the only person who can stop him from succeeding to the throne is Wei Wuji, and Wei Wuji is far away in the Qin State at this time, what if he is blocked?
What's more, Wei Wuji didn't know about it, Wei Ying died, he succeeded to the throne, and Wei Wuji was just waiting to accept it.
After Wei Ying heard Wei Si's words, he was stunned, he did not deny that what Wei Ying said was very correct.
The tradition of the Wei people, that is, the succession of the father to the death of the son, is a very traditional way of succession, and no one has corrected it, he died, as long as no one finds anything strange, it is natural for him Wei Ying to succeed to the throne. 228 Literature Network
Among his sons who are alive, Wei Si is the most powerful, the deepest, and the oldest, even if those sons find out, do they dare to identify them? I'm afraid that identifying it is a dead end.
As for the ministers, I am afraid they will all choose to protect themselves.
Of course, the succession of Wei Si so smoothly is still a problem with the Wei inheritance system, and there is no big problem such as the struggle between princes and princes.
If there is a problem such as the struggle between the prince and the prince, even if Wei Hei succeeds to the throne, he will not be at peace, of course, because there is no such problem, there has never been such a rebellious thing as killing his father.
Wei Ying was silent for a while, then looked at Wei Si and said, "Why are you in such a hurry?" ”
"When I die, my place is yours!" Wei Ying said lightly.
If you want to say that anyone has the possibility of usurping power and seizing the throne, Wei Ying will believe it, but he can't believe that his son Wei Hei will do it, because Wei Hei is the only legitimate heir in the empire, and his Xiangguo, including Wei Wuji, supports him, and according to the development, after his death, Wei Hei will succeed to the throne.
Wei Si was silent for a while and said, "I want to stop fighting!"
Wei Ying was stunned: "You want to stop the war?" ”
"Father, go out and take a look, what has become of our Jin Kingdom, how many people are starving to death on the streets, and no one collects the corpses!"
"Our Wei family sits on this land in the hope that they can live and be rich and strong, not for your imperial hegemony, let them run to death one after another!" Wei Si looked at Wei Ying and said.
"Hangu Pass has been broken, we have already won the battle of Guanzhong, we have already achieved a very good victory, why do we have to fight?"
"We can negotiate peace with the Qin State and obtain a large amount of materials, so that our people can live well!"
"Father, tell me, why do you keep fighting?"
"Destroy the Qin State?"
"Look at the scene outside, I'm afraid that the Qin State has not been destroyed, we have already destroyed ourselves first!" Wei Si looked at Wei Ying and said fiercely.
"Father, I killed you, not because I coveted this position, but for the sake of my Wei people and the people of the Jin Kingdom!"
"I don't know how Zhao He thinks, what Zhao Sheng thinks, and I don't know what Han Ran thinks, they are indifferent to watching their people die one after another!"
"They and you can be indifferent, but I can't do that!"
"If Mr. Fan hadn't told me this, I wouldn't have known that the people of my Jin Kingdom are living in such a hot and watery life!" Wei Si stared at Wei Ying with his eyes and said lightly.
At this time, Fan Zuo came out, he was the one who persuaded Wei Si, he was a famous scholar of Wei, and he was also a great Confucian who was not of Qi.
In his early years, he studied in Qiu of the Xihe School, where he met many aspiring non-Qi Confucian people, who joined the Wei State with their own ideas.
In fact, there are many Confucians who are not in Qi State, because of Qi Xiaobai's reasons, so that many of those idealistic Confucian people can not carry forward their own ideas, although Qi State gives them the opportunity to enter the office, but it is difficult for them to be promoted, so many of them left Qi State angrily, and most of them came to the Xihe School.
Here they are like-minded, and of course, after coming here, the Confucianism of the Xihe School has gradually grown.
