Chapter 286
Xiao Wu was clutching Liu Xu's sleeve tightly, so she didn't allow Liu Xu to go on an adventure, what if someone like Xu Jingzong was mad? She doesn't hesitate to think badly of people's hearts, her family's life is the most expensive, and it is not cost-effective to bet with that kind of broken jar.
Liu Xu is actually thinking about whether he will go or not, he is not afraid that Xu Jingzong will jump over the wall in a hurry and choose to die with him, his approach is too bastard, unless, he thinks that his Xu family does not even have a descendant. Liu Xu was just thinking about whether there was a need to go.
Wei Chi Jingde came to visit today, and after he entered the door, he didn't say anything, he asked for a bowl of noodles, and ate it in a daze, as if it was a good delicacy.
"Didn't you go to the Tao, what's the matter, you're ready to return to the vulgar again?"
Yu Chi Jingde snorted and put the big bowl down.
"I'm just a lay disciple, Tianzun said that my roots are not exhausted, so I will go down to the mortal world to take a look."
It seemed to be true, Liu Xu couldn't help it, and added wine to him, he took a sip, put it down, and looked at Liu Xu fixedly.
"Boy, Uncle knows what you have been wronged over the years, Uncle is useless, he can't help you, but can you leave a seed for the Xu family! My daughter-in-law's eyes are swollen from crying these days, and the child is helpless, running into my Taoist temple every day, my head is about to explode, what kind of Taoism do you cultivate! ”
Wei Chi Jingde paused for a moment and continued.
"Boy, back then, your uncle and I were blind, I was blinded by eating lard, I wanted a good history, I wanted him Xu Jingzong to embellish me, and I made such a family in-law, my damn remorse, what kind of person is my Wei Chi Jingde, I don't know a basket of mud legs, what do I want to do with those false names! But things have been done, and the mistake has been wrong for so many years, I, Wei Chi Jingde, am willing to swallow this bitter fruit, I have never begged much in my life, but I can't help it today, so I gave up my face and came to ask you, are you going to kill Lao Xu with your own hands! ”
Looking at Liu Xu fixedly, Xu Jingzong sold kerosene to the Goguryeo people, and almost killed Liu Xu and the prince, this matter is no secret now, such a big crime, that is, the disaster of extermination.
When Wei Chi Jingde knew the news, he couldn't wait to pick up a knife and cut Xu Jingzong, but his self-cultivation for so many years made him stop, and when Xu Jingzong's daughter begged for his father to come to Wei Chi, Wei Chi Jingde couldn't wait to let his son divorce his wife! But his son is also a coward, there is no way, so, Wei Chi Jingde, can only run to Liu Xu, the queen went to Liu's house with great fanfare, this matter is already a household name in Chang'an, now Liu Xu can swing a knife at any time, at the latest, there are still fifteen days, because fifteen days later, the army that conquered Goguryeo will return to Chang'an. At the celebration banquet, if people like Xu Jingzong had not been removed, Wei Chi Jingde didn't know what would happen, and the crown prince Li Chengqian would have killed people in anger for Liu Xu's life-saving grace.
If the prince makes a move, it won't be a matter of one person, and if it is implicated, it is possible for the three clans! No, absolutely!
Liu Xu's hand pouring wine stopped in mid-air, and he didn't come back to his senses until a lot of wine was overflowing. I wiped it off with a rag and clapped my hands before sighing.
"Uncle Wei Chi thinks Liu Xu will do something, or rather, how to do it."
Liu Xu took a holy decree, there was nothing on it, just the name, more than 300 people, just like that in that accident, Liu Xu could let him go Xu Jingzong? The people of Afang Town, can they let him go? People are doing it, the sky is watching, and the retribution is not happy, Liu Xu always feels that there is actually some truth in this. When he Xu Jingzong made a windfall with a bad conscience, did he ever think about others? Now, why should people pity him?
Wei Chi Jingde was stunned, his hands were trembling, he was a general, he naturally knew what this list meant to Liu Xu, not to mention, Liu Xu's personality, he knew it very clearly, if it weren't for Xu Jingzong's too much, he wouldn't be like this! The emperor asked him to wait for a year, and he went crazy for a year, and now the time has come, the emperor has already given him the right, how can he persuade these people?
There is only one Hou Junji in the world, if Hou Junji really attacked the city instead of simply besieging the city, Wei Chi Jingde believes that he Hou Junji will not survive at all!
What's more, how many blows Liu Xu has suffered over the years, and with such persuasion, Wei Chi Jingde himself feels that he is a bit of a bastard.
He slapped his palms hard and stood up.
"Uncle knows, it's Uncle who made a mistake today, and he shouldn't have come, don't think about it. What to do, what to do, you try to do it, uncle..."
He groaned and prepared to get up and leave.
"Hmph, you know you're still here? I don't think you're cultivating the Tao, you're cultivating foolishness! The more you repair, the more confused you become! ”
Liu Xu was about to speak, but was interrupted by a person, Lao Cheng listened to the big belly, his nostrils hummed, turned his belt a few times, and waved his hand at Liu Xu.
"Boy, let someone prepare some food for me, early in the morning, I didn't eat, I just thought about stopping some confused guys, for a person who is not worthy, and ruined the feelings of several families!"
Liu Xu bowed, Lao Cheng was irritable and asked him not to use it, he picked a place to sit down, looked at Wei Chi Jingde, and snorted again.
"Why, if the child doesn't help you, are you still angry? Feeling faceless? ”
Lao Cheng's mouth was very poisonous, Wei Chi Jingde gasped roughly, sat down again, and continued to pour wine.
Lao Cheng glanced at him, didn't bother to look at it again, and slapped it at Liu Xu.
"This matter, you don't have to care about other people, for this consideration, for that consideration, in the end, good people, what kind of grievances have they become, I heard that Xu Jingzong gave you an invitation? Hmph, he really dares, he doesn't even want to be cheeky, right? You don't have to go, today, just accompany your uncle to drink, what's the matter, please let you go to the door? He must have read all that book into the belly of a pig! Embarrassed to call yourself a bachelor? ”
Liu Xu smiled and nodded, Wei Chi Jingde was drinking in silence now, Lao Cheng glanced at it a few times, and snorted coldly again.
"Hey, you don't need money for drinks? What about when you're in your own home? ”
Well, this time he almost jumped up in anger, flicked his sleeves, and glared at Lao Cheng angrily. Liu Xu could only smile bitterly on the side, not only to persuade Lao Cheng to calm his anger, but also to persuade Wei Chi to surrender the fire.
"Hello, you are amazing, so many years have passed, why don't you give the kid a breath! Am I a fool, I don't know? But this kid has grown up since he was a child, and the old man treats him as his own family, in this case, why can't I come over and take a look, did I stop him from killing Xu Jingzong? I'm just giving my daughter-in-law an explanation, after all, she added two big fat boys to my Wei Chi family! ”
Wei Chi Jingde was angry, but Lao Cheng didn't let go at all, raised his sleeves, and stood up.
"Why are you murdering me after being murderous with the child? I don't have a child's temper! also give an explanation to your daughter-in-law, you are a grandfather, confess a fart! Is that your son's daughter-in-law, or yours? Ask for people, it's your turn? Your son is so afraid of Liu Xu? Liu Xu has taken care of your stupid boy for so many years? Don't you know? Xu Jingzong's business went out like that, do you dare to say that they don't know at all? Are all fools? Pure fools? I don't think so, I see, I just have no conscience! Eaten by a dog! An immature white-eyed wolf! ”
Lao Cheng didn't give the slightest face, and after many years of affection, Lao Cheng was also so angry, staring at him hatefully, foaming at the mouth.
Wei Chi Jingde's hands trembled violently, Lao Cheng snorted, then turned around and took the noodles, sat down by himself, and put his chopsticks on it, but he didn't move.
"Wei Chi, we are all a lot old, what age, what kind of thoughts should we have, when is it now, Your Majesty reins in power, how many nobles have been pulled off their horses, fallen to the ground and trampled to death? What are those people, just like your son and daughter-in-law! His Majesty's mighty imperial grace was used by them as a bargaining chip for making money, and they all lost their faces, and frantically made up for the pile of interests. Now that you have been dismissed from office today and taken away from your knighthood tomorrow, how strong do you think this bit of wealth you have earned with your own life can be? ”
After hearing this, Wei Chi slammed his fist again, and then sat down dejectedly, the corners of his eyes a little moist.
"I know, but I can't help it! There are only a few in the family, Baolin is a good boy, but Baoqi you know, he was born stupid, he married a wife for him, I took great pains, although Xu Jingzong is a bastard, but that daughter-in-law has nothing to say, everything in the family is handled by her, it is hard for her, and I and the old woman, I also love her, I can't find anything wrong, she has never asked me for anything, just this time, did I Wei Chi be ruthless, and she said those grandiose truths? She's not stupid, but she's also a child, Xu Jingzong is in trouble, is she just looking at it like that? Xu Jingzong, after all, is her father! ”
"Lao Cheng, what kind of person is my Wei Chi, you should know, what kind of person Liu Xu is, my Wei Chi understands even more, I want not to come here, but I walked and walked, I came here, I thought, relying on this kid's affection for me, I gave up my old face, came to ask, just ask, knowing the answer, I will die. I don't feel like I've lost any face, I'm Wei Chi Jingde, now I'm with the Daomen all day long, eating wind food, drinking white dew, what face do I need? I got everything I deserved, and I just wanted peace of mind. ”
"I know you're afraid that I'm getting involved in this whirlpool, but I don't care, I'm not an old pedant, a lot of things, I've already seen it, you're old Cheng's age, and you're still competing on the battlefield, isn't it also for a few babies in the family." I don't have your ability now, I go to a latrine, my feet and stomachs are fighting, God knows how many years I can live, after I die, there is a pile of loess, what can I expect? I also thought, while I haven't closed my eyes, I will help the second son and the poor daughter-in-law, do you think, I am doing this, but is it wrong? ”
I didn't want any wine glasses, I directly lifted the wine jar, poured wine into my stomach, and when I poured too much, he coughed badly, Liu Xu stepped forward to help him pat his back, and was held down by Wei Chi Jingde, and shook his head with a wry smile.
"It's okay, my body, I know myself, I can't die if I want to. Liu Xu, you are a good boy, since you were a child, you have always been, when your uncle was young before, he couldn't help you anything, and now that he is old, he can't help you anymore. You have been taking care of the family, the business at home, without your support, I don't know what it has become, those few ah, not at all the material for trading, I know all this. ”
"So, your Uncle Cheng is right, I did a bastard thing today, I ate lard and blinded my heart, and I have no conscience! Here, Uncle has made amends for your sins. ”
After speaking, he was about to get up and bow down, Liu Xu hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, and Lao Cheng also fell and finished eating the noodles and dropped the chopsticks.
"Tsk, say you're confused, you still don't believe it, you look at it, realize that it's confused, you make amends to the child, aren't you confused? We are elders, if we are wrong, we are wrong, he is a junior, I have to bear it, I dare to ask you to make amends, I can't kill him with a big ear scraper! Is the child such a fool? He has received this worship from you, how will he get out of this gate in the future? Are you letting the world poke him in the back? ”
Wei Chi Jingde froze, and then he could only smile bitterly, slapping his forehead vigorously, admitting that he was indeed confused. Lao Cheng snorted and loosened his belt again.
"Okay, boy, your Uncle Wei Chi also has difficulties, I know, you understand, you are not such a person, he came here today in a confused way, but he can't go uncomfortably, you, hurry up and give him a peace of mind pill, no matter how you say it, it is a family of Jiangmen, you can't let outsiders look down on it, the old man knows, you guy has already planned it, right?"
Liu Xuwaner bowed to the two of them, and added wine to them.
"Actually, when Uncle Wei Chi came, I was about to say, you two are a fork, and now, the two uncles know the kid, I don't like to kill, His Majesty used to laugh at me, this time I went to Goguryeo, and went to see how to bury the prisoners of war, I thought my heart was hard enough, but when I came back, I found that I was still bad, so I hid in the academy."
"To tell the truth, Xu Jingzong's matter, I wasn't going to care about it anymore, Your Majesty killed him, and I killed him, in fact, there is no difference, at most, but let me feel at ease, the soldiers are His Majesty's soldiers, not my Liu Xu's, as long as Xu Jingzong pays the price for his mistakes, what else do I Liu Xu pursue? Take him Xu Jing Zong Liwei? Then go to the court and compete with the eldest grandson Wuji for the position of the powerful minister? There's no need for that. ”
"So, Uncle Wei Chi, I'll give you a secret, Xu Jingzong can't be immortal, but if you want to kill his family, I Liu Xu can't do it, as for where to distribute or exile, this is no longer something I can control, Your Majesty, naturally has his decision."
