The night is quiet and the undercurrent is surging.

Wei Zheng's house also had some people coming. Although his family's house is in Pingkangfang, which is not far from the imperial city, the location is very remote. There is also no plaque at the door, which is difficult to find if you don't look carefully.

A dignified and dignified countryman, living in such a house, is not in line with the etiquette system. According to the system, the mansion of the Duke of Guo should have a room dedicated to worshiping ancestors, but Wei Zheng's house was very small, and his bedroom was with the house of worshipping ancestors, so he was impeached by the imperial history. After Li Shimin learned of this, he gave Wei Zheng money and asked him to change a house to live in, but Wei Zheng did not change it, and took all the money to help his relatives. He was born poor, and his relatives were all poor relatives, and he came to the door every New Year's holiday, saying that he was visiting, but in fact he was asking for money. None of them can be sent away without a consistent half-coherent one. Wei Zheng never accepts bribes, and the money he obtains, except for Yulu, is the reward of the Son of Heaven, with this group of vampires staring, how can he have plenty of money.

When someone impeached him, he didn't tell the difference, and over time, everyone knew about him, and he was not impeached. Li Shimin gave him money once, but he couldn't always give it, so his living environment has not improved, and he has lived in this small mansion for almost five years.

The Shandong Shi clan also wanted to help him, but Wei Zheng did not accept it, he said to people that he had nothing in his life, so he only had this reputation left, and he didn't want to even leave a little fame, so he did things, but when it came to money and bribes, he sternly refused.

It is precisely because of this foundation that people praise Wei Zheng's conduct very much, how can a person who doesn't even love money be disloyal?

After the news of Wei Zheng's insult by Li Mu spread today, many people came to Wei Zheng's house one after another. After Li Mu killed, more people came. The house is small, and the house is also small, Wei Zheng had to let the guests be wronged, took a few stools, and everyone sat in the courtyard.

A group of representatives of the imperial history and Lu, Cui, Zheng and other Shandong clans were filled with righteous indignation, and held grievances for Wei Zheng, this statement will impeach Li Mu tomorrow, and the one who has written the recital will be taken out and recited, everyone you and I will say a word, and the noise is endless.

But the person concerned, Wei Zheng, did not say a word, and sat in a daze.

He was thinking about Li Mu and what he said today.

Wei Zheng is known for his eloquence, and he is unstoppable and reasonable, and he can argue three points if he is unreasonable. Although what Li Mu said today was logical, if it was an argument, Wei Zheng would not have nothing to say. It's just that what Li Mu said happened to hit his cover door, making him confused, and he wanted to argue, but he couldn't open his mouth.

Li Mu said that he was a slave with three surnames, but in fact, he said it lightly. Wei Zheng himself knew that he was actually a slave with the surname of Seven. The word loyalty, he is unworthy.

When Wei Zheng was at the age of Li Mu, he was talented and talented, and he couldn't survive in his hometown, so he had to become a Taoist priest and wander around to eat. When the world was in turmoil, the treasure of Chengyuan in Wuyang County started with Li Mi of Wagang, and it happened that Wei Zhengyun traveled to Wuyang County, he felt that the opportunity was coming, took off his robe, and became the staff of Yuan Treasure. Yuan Bao was his first lord.

Because Wei Zheng had read books and made good articles, Yuan Bao relied on him very much, and the letters exchanged with Li Mi were all dictated by Yuan Bao and written by Wei Zheng. After following Yuan Bao for a period of time, Wei Zheng felt that Yuan Bao was a reckless martial artist who couldn't become a climate, so he took the opportunity to send a letter to Li Mi and recommended himself to become Li Mi's staff. Wagang Li Mi is his second lord.

Soon after, Wagangzhai was in internal strife, internal and external troubles, Li Mi could not withstand Wang Shichong's attack, so he had to take refuge in Li Yuan and work as a strategist under Li Yuan. Li Yuan was his third lord, but at that time, there were so many strategists under Li Yuan's command, and Wei Zheng was never reused. Li Mi surrendered to the Tang Dynasty and rebelled against the Tang Dynasty, and was beheaded by Sheng Yanshi in Bears Ears Mountain. The remnants were incorporated by Li Ji, who was still called Xu Shiji at the time, both of them were under Li Mi, Wei Zheng secretly wrote a letter to Li Ji, and secretly left the Tang army camp at night and came to Li Ji's account. Li Ji is his fourth lord.

Subsequently, Dou Jiande waved his army south, Li Ji was short of grain and grass, and his army was scattered. Li Ji led the remnants to return to Tang, while Wei Zheng did not dare to return to Tang because he fled from the Tang army camp and surrendered to Dou Jiande. Under Dou Jiande, Wei Zheng was finally reused, and in the first year of Wude, the Tang Dynasty was founded, and Dou Jiande also established himself as the king, and named Wei Zheng as a living houser. Dou Jiande is his fifth lord.

Dou Jiande raised a large army to attack Tang, and the two sides fought in Bishui. Li Shimin took the lead, rushed into Dou Jiande's army formation, fought for four days and five nights, Dou Jiande was defeated and captured, and was beheaded in Chang'an. Wei Zheng was also captured, Li Jiancheng had heard of him, at that time, Li Jiancheng's prince's mansion was competing with Li Shimin's Tiance Mansion, as long as people were willing to join the prince's mansion, they were not to blame in the past. Wei Zheng was naturally willing to live in order to survive, Li Shimin asked a few times, Wei Zheng answered like a stream, Li Jiancheng was overjoyed, and named him the prince to wash the horse, with great courtesy. Li Jiancheng is his sixth lord.

Xuanwumen Incident, Li Jiancheng died, Wei Zheng became a prisoner again, Li Shimin had long heard that Wei Zheng gave Li Jiancheng a lot of ideas, and felt that he was a talented person. Li Shimin became his seventh lord.

Loyal ministers don't care about the two masters, but he Wei Zheng has seven lords, isn't he a slave with seven surnames? Having said that, in Wei Zheng's heart, he only regarded Li Jiancheng as the lord, because Li Jiancheng treated him with the most respect and courtesy, and Li Jiancheng was indeed a virtuous person, if he became the emperor, he would not necessarily be worse than Li Shimin. As for the others, in Wei Zheng's view, they were all just expedient.

But Li Mu said that he did not have the righteousness of a monarch and a minister, and he really couldn't refute it, because he knew in his heart that he really didn't have it.

In Wei Zheng's heart, he has his own persistence. He regarded Li Jiancheng as the main one, and the relationship between Li Jiancheng and the Shandong Shi clan was also promoted by him. Now that Li Jiancheng is dead, and the Shandong Shi clan has been greatly implicated because of the events of that year, and there is not one in the ten forces of the DPRK and China, Wei Zheng feels that he must take on this responsibility. He repeatedly contradicted Li Shimin, and it was also because of this. Half of my life has passed, and the perspective of right and wrong is long different from that of youth. Maybe when Wei Zheng was at his age like Li Mu, he still had the boundary between good and evil in his heart, but now, as a prince of the country, he has responsibilities that he can't let go, and he can't distinguish between right and wrong in many things, he can only look at the position under his feet.

But in the bottom of his heart, Wei Zheng knew right and wrong, and it was because he knew that he was in pain. Originally, only he knew this pain, because everyone in the court was the same person, and no one would expose this old bottom. Who would have thought that Li Mu would be so stunned and uncover his scars, making him feel like a thousand arrows piercing his heart, and there are words of suffering.

Wei Zheng actually didn't hate Li Mu, Li Mu said the truth and didn't slander him. But he had to make a move on Li Mu, because this group of people in front of him was his responsibility. If he had a choice, he didn't want to attack Li Mu, Li Shimin pitied Li Mu's talent, Wei Zheng also pitied it, and even envied it, but now, he had no choice.

Wei Zheng finally spoke.

"Tomorrow, you will play with me. Old Lu, on the student's side, I'll leave it to you. ”

The person who was called Lu Lao stroked his beard slightly, did not speak, and nodded.

……

The Zhao Guogong Mansion is also full of people.

Today, when Li Shimin forced the six Shangshu to express his position, the eldest grandson Wuji gave an ambiguous answer, and he knew that this answer could not satisfy Li Shimin. But the eldest grandson Wuji has no choice, he is the principal of the Guanlong Group, the Guanlong Group, and is also a nobleman, although it is not as big as a family with five surnames and seven wangs, but in terms of preferential treatment, it is not weak at all than the gate valve.

The people sitting in this hall are all from the ministers of the dragon, the older generation from Li Yuan, and the younger generation from Li Shimin, and they are all more or less related to the Li family, even if Li Shimin is here, they can't do anything to them.

Mineral deposits are profiteering. These people, big and small, have a little mine in their family, and now Li Shimin wants to take back the mineral deposits to the imperial court, which is almost equivalent to robbing their money, how can these people agree? The eldest grandson Wuji was also staring at a lot of pressure before giving Li Shimin an ambiguous answer, otherwise if he followed the meaning of these people, he would directly oppose it.

Most of the people present were born as military generals, with a strong temper, a straight temperament, and many knighthoods, the second and third in the world, and there is no restraint when he speaks, this one is a word, and that one is roaring, although the eldest grandson Wuji is the principal, but many people are still a generation higher than him, and he can't say anything. Although I was unhappy in my heart, I could only watch silently. The eldest grandson Wuji is not worried, anyway, they quarrel and quarrel, and in the end he is in charge.

Finally, these people were tired of arguing, and remembered the eldest grandson Wuji, everyone, you look at me, I will look at you, Shen Guogong Gao Shilian opened his mouth and asked: "Auxiliary, you are talking, there will be turmoil in the court tomorrow, where am I standing?" ”

Shen Guogong Gao Shilian is the maternal uncle of the eldest grandson Wuji and the eldest grandson queen, their father died early when they were young, and they were driven out of the house by the clan uncle, it was Gao Shilian who took them in and raised them as adults, and had the grace of raising the eldest grandson Wuji and the eldest grandson queen. During the change of Xuanwumen, Gao Shilian played an important role, not only advised Li Shimin to do it, but also entered the palace to paralyze Li Yuan, to create opportunities for Li Shimin, after Li Shimin ascended the throne, he was named a servant, and later Gao Shilian felt that he was sorry for Li Yuan, and he was ashamed, so he resigned in old age, retired after success, and built a mansion on the outskirts of Chang'an, and rarely participated in major events in the court.

But that doesn't mean he doesn't care about money. Li Shimin wanted to collect the ore from the imperial court, and he was the first one in the Guanlong Group who did not agree, but Li Shimin was his nephew and son-in-law, and he was embarrassed to say it, so he came to find the eldest grandson Wuji.

The eldest grandson Wuji heard his uncle's question, and he didn't dare not answer, so he groaned for a while and said, "Li Mu, we have to be protected!" ”
