Wang Gui walked in front and sang from a distance: "Lord County, your distinguished guest is here." ”

The middle-aged man was excited, looked over here, and then hurriedly stepped forward, and said, "Useless things, it took so long to welcome guests in!" If you neglect the guests, I can't spare you! ”

Wang Gui muttered continuously, bowed down and stepped aside, revealing the eldest grandson Hong behind him.

The middle-aged man's eyes lit up, he took a few steps to catch it, looked up and down carefully, and praised it in his mouth: "Grow up, grow up, time flies so fast, I was only knees high back then, but now I look so handsome and tall, it's so fast!" ”

The eldest grandson Hongzheng was about to bow down, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but be confused.

Why have you seen me?

Lijia Village has never heard of a county order coming to the door, where have you seen Lao Tzu?

The middle-aged man held the shoulders of the eldest Sun Hong with both hands, touched and pinched affectionately, and kept boasting: "The body is sturdy, the face is delicate, and at first glance it is the embryo of both civil and military, and there will be a future in the future, the talents of the Great Song Dynasty are withering, and the virtuous nephew is promising!" ”

Changsun Hong is completely stupid, when did I become your virtuous nephew? He stood stunned, his mouth open, not knowing what to say.

The middle-aged man took his hand, took it to the courtyard one by one, and entered the moon gate, which was a big garden, the autumn chrysanthemum was in full bloom, the fragrance of flowers was full of gardens, and a flower hall appeared on one side in the fragrance, which was elegant and quiet, and had a unique style.

The middle-aged man brought Changsun Hong into the flower hall, turned back to Wang Gui and shouted, "What are you doing in a daze?" Don't hurry up and tell your subordinates to pour tea. ”

Wang Gui agreed, and walked away.

The fragrance of books in the flower hall is circulating, there is a bookcase, a few chairs, the bookshelves in the room are standing against the wall, the shelves are full of books, and on an empty wall, there is a long sword hanging, the scabbard is inlaid with gold and jade, and you can know that it is very precious at a glance.

"Sit down." The middle-aged man sat down with Changsun Hong, he did not sit in the main seat behind the bookcase, but deliberately sat next to Changsun Hong, without the slightest respect for himself as a county.

The eldest grandson Hong came back to his senses a little at this moment, and guessed the reason why the county order attached so much importance to him, sighed in his heart, and said to him with a smile: "The county lord ......"

The middle-aged man waved his hand and interrupted him: "Don't be polite to the virtuous nephew, there are no outsiders here, you and my uncle and nephew can be commensurate, my surname is Wang Xuejin, you can call me Uncle Wang." You don't know, I'm Wei Weng's protégé. ”

"Think about Wei Weng back then, the country's heavy weapon, the main Sichuan Central Fourth Road, a big man, what a scene, my small county order, but also during his reign by his care, to the ministry to ask for come, Wei Weng to me, there is the grace of knowledge, when in the capital of his house, I had the fate to see Wei Weng once, the virtuous nephew was just a child playing in front of the hall at that time, not as tall as now, but Wei Weng was high-spirited, a moment of excellence. Now that he is framed by a villain and degraded to live idle, it is really a loss of the Great Song Dynasty, a loss. ”

With a smile on his face, he hesitated slightly, and asked without changing his face: "Wei Weng's letter only said that the virtuous nephew was coming, but did not specify the name, I don't know what the title of the virtuous nephew is?" ”

Changsun Hong couldn't cry or laugh, and said in his heart that this county order is really an old fritter in officialdom, and he didn't even know his name yet, so he called a virtuous nephew and a virtuous nephew affectionately, and just now he pulled Lao Tzu and said that he had seen me when he was a child, and he didn't even know my name where did you see the virtuous nephew? The child in your mouth doesn't know whose child it is, and you are not afraid to flash your tongue if you recognize it casually?

In his heart, he replied respectfully: "Yes, Uncle Wang, the boy's surname is the eldest grandson, and his single name is a Hongzi." ”

"Oh?" The county commander Wang Xuejin's eyes rolled and tilted his head: "I don't know the eldest grandson and nephew, how do you call Wei Weng?" ”

The eldest grandson Hong knew that this was to touch his own bottom, and Wei Liaoweng's letter was vaguely written, just saying that he had a son and nephew of his own, who was diligent and studious, motivated and hardworking, and specially introduced him to his colleagues to take care of one or two clouds. He did not name him, nor did he say what his nephews were. So Wang Xuejin only knew that he was Wei Liaoweng's person, but he couldn't figure out who he was.

This question is very important to people in the officialdom, and the children of relatives are very different from the students under them, so there is this question.

Eldest Sun Hong's mind turned, and he said silently: Congratulations to Old Man Wei, let you take advantage of Lao Tzu. raised his head, put on a solemn expression, and said, "He is my own uncle." ”

"Ahh Wang Xuejin stood up suddenly, his eyes sparkled, the smile on his face became a little stronger, and he said in surprise: "Sure enough, it's a virtuous nephew!" Back in the day, you and I had a relationship, and today I really didn't admit my mistake, virtuous nephew, I have grown up! ”

Changsun Hong looked at his pretended enthusiastic face, he was about to vomit overnight, he endured his nausea, and said with the same joy: "Uncle Wang is the style that has not diminished back then, and he is still radiant." ”

Wang Xuejin waved his hand: "Hey, the virtuous nephew doesn't know, Uncle Wang cares about the country and works hard in the county, and he is already a lot older, not as old as he was back then." ”

He sat down again, and said to the eldest grandson with concern: "Compared with me, Wei Weng is old, so he should take care of it carefully, I don't know how Wei Weng is in Jingzhou, how is his health?" Can you get used to it? I wanted to go over to see him, but there are so many mundane things that I can't get out of my body, and I really can't leave. ”

"Uncle is in good health, thank you Uncle Wang for your concern." Changsun Hong smiled secretly, this hypocrite, he said it in a high-sounding manner, but he saw that Wei Liaoweng had lost his power and didn't want to wade into this troubled water, but he was worried that the officialdom would be repeated, and he would be demoted today, and he might be used tomorrow, and the official position would be one level higher, so Wang Xuejin treated himself so well, but he just wanted to set a set of Wei Liaoweng's current thoughts and plans, if he still had ambitions, then he could continue to stutter.

Sure enough, Wang Xuejin immediately asked: "It's so good, alas, Wei Weng was demoted, and all his colleagues in the DPRK and China talked about it, all of which were uneven, but the official family issued a holy decree, and no one could do anything, but Wei Weng's fame was spread all over the world, and his political achievements were shown all over the world, and everyone saw it in their eyes, and the official family would not know that sooner or later he would return to live in the temple, right?" ”

Facing his inquiring gaze, the eldest grandson Hong sat down and nodded solemnly: "What Uncle Wang said is reasonable. ”

The historical Wei Liaoweng was indeed reinstated a few years later, and he was also promoted to the Privy Council, ranked as the chief minister, and took on the important task of resisting the Mongols.

However, Changsun Hong's words, neither agreed nor objected, let Wang Xuejin think about it himself.

Wang Xuejin blinked, didn't know what he thought, was surprised, and said in a loud voice: "Really? Really? Great, I know that Wei Weng has already seen through the momentary gains and losses, and Wang has been worried and worried. ”

He smiled happily, as if he was about to be promoted, and the eldest grandson Hong looked at him with interest, smiling slightly, like watching a monkey performing a circus.

He decided to add some more material to the joyful Wang Xuejin, so he leaned over and whispered: "Actually, my uncle moved this time, and the official family couldn't bear it, but when he was angry, the words were already out, and it was not easy to take it back, so he secretly gave his uncle a gold belt as a comfort." ”

"Gold, gold belts?!" Wang Xuejin shouted, and his face changed in surprise: "Isn't that what the prime minister can get?" The officials did this...... Is it ......?"

Eldest Sun Hong looked at Wang Xuejin with a meaningful look.

Wang Xuejin slapped his face, and suddenly realized, and the word "oh~~" involuntarily popped out of his throat.

In fact, a twelve-year-old boy had a conversation with an adult man who had been a county magistrate for several years, and it should be Wang Xuejin who took the initiative.

A little maid outside the door walked into the door with two cups of tea, Wang Xuejin didn't wait for her to approach, he went over and continued, and urged in his mouth: "Go, go and cook two bowls of bird's nest again, it's late at night, the eldest grandson and nephew have to drink some hot warmth." ”
