Chapter 821: People Must Have a Bottom Line (25)

Wei Wennan's ancestor is very brilliant, Wei was one of the eight meritorious families of the Jin Dynasty, hereditary nine generations of princely titles, passed to the seventh generation, to the Xuanzong period, Wei power tilted towards the government and the opposition, set up the emperor, tried to change the dynasty, and finally was jointly attacked by many gate valve families, and finally fell into a full house, the end of the piece of armor was not left, only a very small number of branch children, incognito outside, this escaped.

Wei Wennan's ancestors had an extremely glorious past, but that was hundreds of years ago, and by his generation, or even ten generations earlier, their lineage was already a complete common people.

So in fact, Wei Wennan's family background is modest, but he is from a poor family.

Wei Wennan studied hard in his childhood, at the age of eighteen he was in the Jinshi, when he was young, his blood was strong, his personality was reckless, and he provoked a lot of right and wrong, because he was loved by Emperor Pingzong, so he was safe and sound, Wei Wennan reached middle age, thinking of the past when he was young, and then he slowly understood the reason, so he was extremely grateful to Pingzong's love, and made an oath to swear allegiance to the Jin Dynasty and loyalty.

Wei Wennan was not trusted by Zhao Zhi, because he was an old minister of Zhao Yong, the crown prince of Emperor Pingzong, and he only valued his talent and ability, so Zhao Zhicai did not kill him, but after succeeding to the throne, he quickly sent Wei Wennan to Lingnan to do assassination.

At that time, the situation in Lingnan was turbulent, there were many popular riots in it, and the local festival envoys were suspicious, and in addition, the barbarian minister Zhang Fu usurped power and killed the king, and the Jin Dynasty severely criticized him, so the relationship between the two countries was tense, and war soon broke out.

Wei Wennan successively served as Qianzhou Sima, Assassin History, Observation Envoy, Fan seven years, several times successfully resisted the barbarian invasion, many military exploits, showed a very good military talent, therefore, Guangyuan eight years, Zhao Zhi saw that Wei Wennan was low-key, not greedy for power and money, respectful and obedient to the imperial court, so he appointed him as the governor of Qianzhou, two years later promoted to the festival envoy.

Pingzong has the grace of love for him, and Zhao Zhi has the grace of knowing him, and he has been favored by two generations of emperors, therefore, Wei Wennan is very heartfelt to the Jin Dynasty and the imperial court, but all the orders of the imperial court, he is doing his best, and he will never dare to be sloppy.

In February of the first year of Tianhe, Wei Wennan entered Beijing to face the saint, for the first time formally proposed to return to his hometown, Zhao Zhi was retained, after that, Wei Wennan lived in the capital, this residence is nearly half a year, during the period, Wei Wennan met Zhao Zhi five times, hoping to leave Lingnan, return to his hometown for the elderly, Zhao Zhi proposed to let Wei Wennan's eldest son go to Qianzhou as the governor, continue to lead the headquarters of the soldiers and horses, was categorically rejected by Wei Wennan, saying that although he has many sons, but they are all mediocre people, and they are all civil officials, do not know the military, that is, no prestige, no ability, It is impossible to suppress the fierce generals and soldiers of Qianzhou, and Qianzhou is very important both geographically and militarily, and those who are not talented and generous cannot go to it, and the imperial court should consider it carefully.

Wei Wennan's attitude was extremely sincere, and Zhao Zhi was sure that Wei Wennan was indeed sincere in delegating power, so Long Yan was happy, and asked Wei Wennan to return to Lingnan immediately to deal with the follow-up matters, and promised him that he would be given the title of prince, and let him return to his hometown with the honor of one of his sons as a princess.

Who knows, this walk is the eternal separation of heaven and earth, and Wei Wennan's sudden life and death will inevitably lead to sudden changes in the situation in Qianzhou and even the entire Lingnan Province.

Li Xun frowned, and his mood was heavy.

Judging from Shi Hu's means and actions, his next step must be to ask Qianzhou to stay behind, and then write to the imperial court, one is to show loyalty, and then to request him to be appointed as the new Qianzhou Jiedu envoy, which is the usual means used by the major feudal towns, if it is changed to someone else or other places, the imperial court may endure it, but Qianzhou is not good, Wei Wennan has always been loyal to the imperial court, and now the death is unknown, and the whole family is dead, whether it is reason or coincidence, it doesn't make sense at all, if the imperial court ignores it, where is the face, Where is the public trust, therefore, Li Xun is almost certain that once Zhao Xun knows the news, whether it is his posture or the actual situation, he will definitely show his anger and order someone to investigate the matter thoroughly, as for Shi Hu's self-request to stay in Qianzhou, he must also flatly refuse, in this way, how can Shi Hu, who has already controlled the military power in Qianzhou, sit still and wait to die?

Just as Li Xun was pondering, Xiao Lezi hurriedly came out of the hall and said to everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, the emperor let you in. ”

"Let's go, Li Xiangguo, I'm afraid today's things are indispensable."

Tao Kan said with a sigh.

Li Xun nodded, did not speak, and walked forward.

Perhaps because of the arrival of Li Xun and others, the hall was quiet at this time, but it was not difficult to see from the faces of some people that there had been fierce debates and quarrels here just now.

The nine ministers of the political affairs hall, with the arrival of Li Xun, it is rare to gather today, but their expressions are a little silent, He Zhongkai sat there, his face flushed, obviously he had just quarreled with someone, Yang Daolin, Li Zhong and others were sitting there, some closed their eyes to recuperate, and some were holding documents in their hands, looking down there, and I don't know how long they have been reading.

As for the protagonist Sheng Shitong, he is standing on the left, with a light expression and a solemn face, although he is over sixty years old, his body is still tall.

Zhao Xun looked at Li Xun and the others, and said with a gloomy expression: "You guys are hiding outside so quietly. ”

"Wechen doesn't dare."

Li Xun and the others hurriedly bowed down and pleaded guilty.

Helian Chu stood up straight and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to do. ”

Zhao Xun glanced at everyone coldly, and then said to Li Xun: "You are Xiangguo, sit down and discuss the matter." ”

"Your Majesty."

Li Xun bowed, and then came to sit down beside Xie Shiyuan.

Xie Shiyuan looked at Li Xun with an inquiring look in his eyes.

Li Xun said in a low voice: "Wei Wennan is dead. ”

Wei Wennan?

Hearing the news, Xie Shiyuan's eyes suddenly became solemn.

Zhao Xun looked at Helian Chu, knocked his fingers on the table, and said lightly: "Say, what's the matter." ”

Helian Chu took out the fold, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the emperor of the Liao Dynasty sent an envoy to ask Tumeng, the king of Yan, to marry the princess of our dynasty, thinking that the two countries were friendly. ”

"This Hu Ren Emperor is really interesting, not for himself or for his son, but for someone else's marriage."

Zhao Xun smiled, pondered for a moment, and then said: "The fold will be transferred to the political affairs hall, and let the ministers discuss it." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Helian Chu nodded in agreement.

Zhao Xun saw that Helian Chu did not retreat and was still standing there, so he frowned and said, "What else is the matter?" ”

The matter of the household department has been in turmoil, and Zhao Xun gathered all the nine ministers of the political affairs hall here, just to cut through the mess quickly and solve it as soon as possible, as for other things, it can be pushed back.

Helian Chu took out another note, his tone became a little heavier, and said: "Your Majesty, Wei Wennan, the envoy of the Qianzhou Festival, died violently. ”

Hearing this news, Zhao Xun was stunned for a moment, then stood up suddenly, stretched out his hand and pointed at Helian Chu: "Take the fold to me." ”

Xiao Lezi hurriedly took the fold and handed it to Zhao Xun.

Zhao Xun grabbed the fold, opened it, looked at it, and looked at it, his face suddenly became extremely ugly.
