Chapter 503: The Face of the Marquis of Wei
(Thank you for the reward of "Ying Zuci", I haven't received a reward for a long time, thank you!) The big chapter is here! )
On the second day of December in the 14th year of the Marquis of Wei, that is, on the second day of the Great Dynasty Meeting, the Marquis of Wei finally issued an edict to the Military Commander's Office.
The most important part of the edict, and the one that most people are concerned about, is that the Marquis of Wei finally agreed to promote Wei Wuji to the rank of naturalized general.
A wave stirred up a thousand waves, and the entire Wu'an was shocked by this edict, from the nobles to the peddlers and pawns, everyone was talking about this time.
As the initiator, Wei Hou sat alone in the small pavilion in the middle of the lake at this time, facing a pool of frozen lake water with an expressionless face.
The reason why he was said to be alone was compared to the scene where he usually hugged each other, and at this time there was a middle-aged man with a haggard face standing next to Wei Hou.
The middle-aged man was wearing a thick fur coat, and the whole person looked round, but the perseverance in his eyes would make anyone look in awe.
"When all the widows have told you to sit down, why should you stand and suffer!" Looking at the bright white in the distance, Wei Hou said in a low voice.
The middle-aged man smiled, and then said: "The monarch is standing, how can the minister mess with the courtesy of the monarch and the minister!" ”
Wei Hou turned his head and looked at the middle-aged man for a long time before sighing: "The widow shoulders the country, how can he sit if he wants to!" ”
The middle-aged man said: "It's the incompetence of the ministers, and they can't share the worries of the monarch's father!" ”
And after saying this, the middle-aged man may have been a little emotional, and even coughed incessantly.
Wei Hou suddenly said with a stunned expression: "I told you to sit, this is the end of recklessness!" ”
Even if it was rare to say some words of concern, Wei Hou even expressed a feeling of scolding, but fortunately, the middle-aged man could still understand it.
Now the middle-aged man was no longer strong, and after sitting down honestly, he said: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to ask in his heart!" ”
Wei Hou also sat back in his place, and then said, "What you want to ask, is it the will that was sent out today?" ”
The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Why did the king promote the fifth prince, which is not in line with the world's ...... interests, too, also go against the monarch's original intention to exile the fifth prince! ”
Seeing the middle-aged man finish speaking, Wei Hou said, "Qingliang, you have been with the widow for so many years, do you really not understand?" ”
The man known as Qingliang was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Your Majesty, half of your body has been buried in the ground, and you can ...... your advice on your side for so many years The minister can't see through it at all! ”
In fact, when this Qingliang fought in Changping two years ago, he was still able to go out with the army, but now he is sick like a mountain, and his body and bones have reached such a point.
And Lu Qingliang's words just show that Marquis Wei is a qualified monarch.
A person who followed him when he was still a son, but now he does not dare to say that he understands him, who is not afraid of such a monarch.
For this minister from the dragon, Wei Hou undoubtedly trusts in his heart, of course, this is based on the fact that the other party is about to die.
And when Lu Qingliang asked this question at this time, he actually slightly refuted what he said before that he didn't understand the problem at all, because he still expected a little bit of Wei Hou's thoughts.
To Lu Qingliang's question, Wei Hou replied: "When the widow left Wu'an a few years ago, he asked him to fight against the Xiongnu, and he did not say that he was exiled to him!" ”
"After he arrived in Yanshan, the conscription exceeded the system, and the widow didn't care...... He asked for armament, food and grass, and the widow let the Lingbei camp satisfy them one by one...... He sent troops to the grassland at will, and the outnumbered people also made the Lingbei camp ignore it! ”
"All this is because the widow wants to see how high he can jump, and now that he has jumped high, the widow will naturally reward him!" Wei Hou said indifferently, as if this was a trivial matter.
Lu Qingliang was stunned, and then asked in disbelief: "The king has no intention of assigning the fifth prince, and use this to deal with the world?" ”
Circumstance and compromise mean the same thing here, but there is no doubt that it is more appropriate to use circumference.
After Wei Hou glanced at him, he said: "If you go to the northern frontier, how can it not be his creation, and in adversity, you can temper people's will even more!" ”
"The king cultivates the fifth prince like this, could it be ......" Lu Qingliang said that there was some hesitation here, after all, the matter of the successor is extremely sensitive.
So Wei Wuji said: "The widow is not cultivating the fifth child, the widow is giving his son a chance, and all his sons have it!" As long as they are not willing to be frequent, the widow will give them a chance to show themselves! ”
Maybe he held it for too long, Wei Hou said again: "The second child is the same as the third child, they want to experience in the army, and the widow just let them go!" ”
Speaking of this, Wei Hou sighed and said: "It's just that their performance is not so outstanding, otherwise the widow will not hesitate to reward!" ”
Lu Qingliang saw that Wei Hou finished speaking, and only then did he say slowly: "Your Excellency, the minister still has a few questions, I hope your lord will answer them!" ”
Wei Hou glanced at Lu Qingliang, and saw that the other party's complexion had become more flushed, so he said, "Ask!" ”
Lu Qingliang said: "Your Majesty, do you want to compete with this to decide who is the crown prince?" ”
After all, the topic still led to the topic of the prince, which was indeed very taboo, and only after Wei Hou stared at Lu Qingliang for a long time and found that the other party's eyes were pure, he looked straight ahead again.
Wei Hou said: "Yes and no, the position of the crown prince is related to the country, sometimes you need to follow the trend, sometimes you have to go against the trend!" ”
The so-called situation of the Marquis of Wei is, of course, the internal situation of the Wei State. For him, the power over there is stronger, so he should make the person over there the prince.
"Your Excellency thinks that this is fair or fair?" Lu Qingliang asked again.
Although Lu Qingliang didn't say who was fair, Wei Hou still knew who the other party was asking. I only heard Wei Hou say: "Life should be like this, if you can't go upstream, the widow can't save him!" ”
Lu Qingliang actually felt lost in this answer, because Wei Hou's words indirectly admitted that competition was unfair to Wei Wuji.
If Wei Wuji didn't work hard himself, once Wei Hou was gone, then no one would be able to save him.
Hearing this, Lu Qingliang suddenly stood up and said, "Could it be that Your Majesty has given up his original revenge and his ambition to be fair to the world?" ”
If others questioned him like this, then this person could be said to be a corpse, but Lu Qingliang was after all an old subordinate when Wei Hou was still a son.
This is not to say that Wei Hou misses the old feelings a lot, but because Lu Qingliang has little time, and when the time comes, he will have one less person to talk to.
I heard Wei Hou say unhurriedly: "You have also seen the results of the reckless change back then, there are already a lot of people who have been harmed, and now the tigers and wolves around Great Wei are around, and they no longer dare to make a big move!" ”
"Not only that, but also the family or the poor...... As long as you are loyal to the country, it will be a good thing for Dawei! Wei Hou said in a deep voice.
It wasn't until Wei Hou said this sentence that Lu Qingliang really believed that the vigorous young monarch back then had now become a cold politician.
Sons or sons...... It's just a tool he uses to maintain his rule and maintain his hegemony.
Even to put it clearly, it is also what Lu Qingliang has always been unwilling to admit that it was Wei Hou himself who betrayed the vigorous change in the first place.
"The minister understood...... The ministers have understood! Lu Qingliang was a little incoherent, and at this time, wisps of tears even flowed out of the corners of his eyes.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Wei Hou was speechless for a long time. As a monarch, all he cares about is the foundation of the Wei State, and the Hanmen clan is no longer important to him, and even the more fierce the fight between the two, the better.
Of course, for the now powerful family, Wei Hou of course has to support the Hanmen family to a certain extent, which is another inhumane reason why he promoted Wei Wuji.
"Your Majesty, give the minister a death!" Lu Qingliang wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. At this time, he thought of the dead Yu Shiyun and the group of like-minded friends at the beginning, Lu Qingliang didn't want to stay in this world that made his ideals collapse for a moment.
Courtiers always have a tendency to delve into the true face of the monarch, and when the monarch really takes off that layer of masks, what he sees is a chilling scene.
After a long sigh, Wei Hou still looked so majestic, and then said: "The widow won't let you die, if you die, it's really difficult for the widow to find someone to talk to!" ”
"The old friends of the year have already gone, so the minister should naturally follow them!" Lu Qingliang laughed miserably, after hearing so many secrets of Wei Hou, he would only be relieved if he died, so that he would not be able to affect his family.
may have guessed what Lu Qingliang was thinking, so Wei Hou said: "Qingliang, you have been with the widow for twenty years, right?" ”
Lu Qingliang nodded, and then said, "It's been twenty-two years!" ”
Wei Hou said: "Do you think that the widow will not be able to trust you?" ”
At this time, Lu Qingliang also looked at Wei Hou, and said for a long time: "Of course the minister trusts the king, but the minister is ...... But it's hard to give advice to the king anymore! ”
"Take good care of your illness, the war with the Qin people in the open face, the widow still has to ask you!" Wei Hou said with a smile.
At this time, the two of them became the pair of intimate monarchs and ministers again.
