Chapter 8 Loss is cherished
People often don't cherish what they have now, and when they really lose it, they regret what they have done in the past. Of course, some people are not aware of the valuable things that are difficult for them from beginning to end, and of course they do not understand that they need to make reasonable choices for their lives.
Yu Huang and Chen San obviously didn't understand this truth. When the Yuhuang Chen San clan chose to decide who was the overlord of Yucheng through the outside world, it also showed that the ugliness between the Yucheng clans had reached the extreme. When the development of things reaches a certain level, the two sides of the contradiction will either reach a new state of coexistence and reconstruct the pattern of Yucheng, or one side will annex the other, or both sides will end up together.
Obviously, the Yu Huang Chen San clan did not choose to reach a new reconciliation with the Wei clan, and developed from the original new pattern of the first super three to the top four, and did not have enough strength to completely annex the Wei clan. When external forces enter Yucheng, especially when external forces far exceed the local clan forces in Yucheng, it is like a tiger entering a fat pigsty, as evidenced by the fact that the children of the Yuhuang Chen San family are stuck in the bamboo pole and die without looking at their heads.
After Wei Kai crossed over, he realized that the Yu clan's native clan was about to perish.
The Wei State inherited the Jin system, and since the Marquis of Wen began to divide the land and population of the princes and ministers, so that the towns were guarded all over the Wei State. The fiefdom of the Shi clan was like a small vassal state in the Wei state, and later evolved into the situation of the Wei court and the Shi clan sharing the Wei state, which has been more than 100 years. But people's desires are endless, but there are only so many lands and populations in Wei, and land annexation is becoming increasingly fierce.
At the beginning of his succession to the throne, Wei Wangying experienced the rebellion of Gongzi Shou, although he inherited the position of Wei Hou with the help of the princes and ministers, but he also saw the strength of the Shi clan, which shocked Wei Wang Ying, so he had the idea of weakening the land and population of the Shi clan.
However, the fiefdom of the family has always been managed by itself, and it is like a small vassal state in the Wei State. The foundation of the continuity of the family lies in the land and the population. If the idea of weakening the land and population is implemented, it will definitely be wary of the various clans of the Wei State and will unite to oppose it, causing chaos in the Wei State. But after all, the Wei State respected the king of Wei, and the big fish had to eat, and the small shrimp was often the simplest, such as Yucheng.
For Yucheng, the Wei family is the head of all the clans in this city. Since the death of Wei Kai's father, Yucheng has not united, and even attacked each other, so that they have not been able to resist the pressure from Wei Ting in time, so that the army of King Wei has been stationed in Yucheng, and the sword of King Wei is on the neck of the Yucheng clan.
If it is said that the Yuhuang Chen San clan gave the Wei king the goal of annexation by looking for external forces; Then, Wei Kai's self-defense in the Wei court gave the king of Wei an excuse to eat this fat meat without causing public outrage. Wei Kai was young, and he had no strength to resist, and he took the initiative to comply with the expectations of King Wei, which was also the reason why Wei Kai could survive.
When the demise of the Yucheng clan reached Anyi, people realized the dissipation of a group of great clans. Among them, there are many people who are worried about the tragic ending of those noble ladies and ladies of the big families, but more of them sigh about the impermanence of the world. It can really be said: "The world is a big dream, and life is cool several times".
Wei Kai has no regrets from beginning to end, he is a person who understands what he really needs. For Wei Kai, a million family fortunes are no match for a small head of his own, and he never thought about going back when he came out of Yucheng, after all, the destruction of the Yucheng clan has become a foregone conclusion, unless he wants to rebel.
After all, Wei Kai is not the real Wei Kai, and he had long expected the fall of his Wei clan, and even played a role in fueling the flames and accelerating the demise of the Wei clan. In the end, when I heard the result, I only felt a little sadness and even a hint of liberation. Wei Kai brought the important things and people of the Wei clan to Anyi, and the Wei clan in Yucheng had nothing to be nostalgic for.
When he returned to his residence, Wei Kai saw Uncle Wei sitting at the table with a lonely face, and suddenly understood in his heart that Uncle Wei probably knew about the destruction of the Wei clan in Yucheng. Wei Kai stepped forward and comforted: "Grandpa Wei, don't be sad, with Wei Kai here, Wei Kai will definitely be able to revitalize the family business."
Uncle Wei, hearing Wei Kai's voice, said extremely desolately: "Did the little master know about it as early as in Yucheng?" ”。 After Wei Kai heard this, he was silent for a while, and understood Uncle Wei's mood at this time, and the person he loved the most like his own grandson finally buried the most precious glory in his life with his own hands, and said, "I'm sorry, Grandpa Wei."
After Uncle Wei heard this, how much he wished to hear a negative answer in his heart, he would rather the Wei clan be annexed by the Yu Huang Chen San clan than so. After a long time, Uncle Wei looked at Wei Kai, recalling the lonely figure of the little master kneeling in front of the master's coffin after the old man's death, no matter how he persuaded him, the little master never spoke. I was so worried. Later, one day, the little master suddenly called Grandpa Wei, and the joy of Uncle Wei at that time can still be felt by Uncle Wei now. Uncle Wei had tears in his eyes, and said in despair: "Little master, the old slave doesn't blame you, it's the old slave who is useless and fails to keep the master's family business."
When Wei Kai heard this, he hurriedly said: "This is Wei Kai's mistake, it is Wei Kai's mistake that failed to keep the foundation of his ancestors." Uncle Wei got up and returned to his room, took out a bronze box, handed it to Wei Kai and said, "This is the sword handed down by the ancestors of the Wei family, and according to legend, it was made by Ou Yezi, a swordsmith of the Yue Kingdom. Now, the old slave has delivered him to you for safekeeping."
Wei Kai was stunned, isn't this a sword that can only be inherited by officially becoming the head of the Wei family? Thinking back to the fact that when he was a child, he turned the Wei family upside down, and only this sword, Uncle Wei didn't let himself touch it. Every time you worship your ancestors, this sword will be taken out for worship. When I was a child, I asked Uncle Wei, and Uncle Wei said that he would wait for me to officially become the head of the family, and then transfer it to Wei Kai. Wei Kai hurriedly said, "Grandpa Wei, Wei Kai is young, do you still need Grandpa Wei's help?" Grandpa Wei doesn't want to leave Wei Kai? Finally, he knelt in front of Uncle Wei.
Uncle Wei said: "The old slave is old, and he can't help the little master, but will drag the little master down." The old slave wanted to go back to Yucheng and guard the spirit of the Wei ancestors. The little master doesn't have to mind, the old slave will wait for the little master's success in Yucheng, and the old slave's death is enough."
The next day, no matter how Wei Kai persuaded him, Uncle Wei still returned to Yucheng alone. Looking at the ox cart in the distance, Wei Kai suddenly found that something was missing in his heart, remembering that he was frightened and at a loss when he first crossed over, it was Uncle Wei who had been accompanying him, giving himself warmth like a kind grandfather, and the scenes of the past recalled to his mind.
Wei Kai suddenly found that he had destroyed his home with his own hands, and he realized the pain of losing to make people cherish, and thought that he would definitely reorganize the Wei family and restore the glory of the Wei family.
But Wei Kai didn't expect that what happened in the future would completely change his life, and this regret for Uncle Wei could only be buried deep in his heart, becoming Wei Kai's eternal pain, and also changing the entire Great Wei Dynasty.
