Chapter Ninety-Five: Fang, Du to the Eastern Capital
There is no vanity under the fame.
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui are talented, Li Xuanba actually doesn't know. But the two of them can be praised for more than a thousand years, and they will definitely not be in vain.
Yang Guang still went to Jiangdu after all, and the trend of history did not seem to have changed much, which made Li Xuanba uneasy, so he immediately asked Wei Zheng to find out the whereabouts of the two, and asked King Zhao to invite them to Luoyang.
When Du Ruhui heard that King Zhao ordered him to go to Luoyang, he did not appear flustered, and said calmly: "Now I am just a cloth cloth, with the protection of my elders, I am at ease in the house, why did King Zhao order me to go to Luoyang?" ”
Wei Zheng also calmed down at this time, sweeping away the anxiety when he first arrived in Dufu. He saw a trace of panic in Du Ruhui's calm eyes, and guessed that Du Ruhui was not planning to do nothing as he said. So, Wei Zheng said slowly: "Junju is prosperous, but he knows everything about Luoyang, can't it be proved that you still care about the affairs of the world?" ”
Du Ruhui didn't expect an unintentional ridicule to reveal his flaws. He silently took out the chess pieces in the water, wiped off the water droplets on them, and said with a smile: "Although Keming is cloth, there are many elders who are officials in the court, and it is not a strange thing to know some things in the court, right?" ”
"Then King Zhao's order, do you listen or not?" Wei Zheng knew that his talent was not as good as Du Ruhui, and he did not argue, and brought out King Zhao again.
King Zhao is the prince, and it is even very likely to be the next monarch, no matter how high the status of the Du family is, he will not dare to disobey the emperor's orders.
Du Ruhui said indifferently: "Luoyang is more prosperous than the capital, I can go to Luoyang to live, why should I disobey?" After finishing speaking, he sat back on the kang and glanced at Wei Zheng.
Seeing Wei Zheng's face beaming with joy and secretly relieved, Du Ruhui arched his hand and said, "Who asked me to go to Luoyang, and asked Brother Xuancheng to make it clear." ”
Wei Zheng's face changed slightly, and he pretended to be puzzled and said, "Since it was ordered by King Zhao, naturally he wants to invite you to Luoyang." ”
Du Ruhui burst out laughing, and his laughter was full of mockery, making Wei Zheng's face extremely ugly.
"Although King Zhao is smart, he has just turned ten years old this year, not to mention ordering me to go to the Eastern Capital, I even dare to guarantee that he doesn't know that there is a person in the world named Du Ruhui!" Du Ruhui stopped laughing and said in a cold voice: "If Brother Xuancheng is unwilling to tell the truth, then even if Ruhui goes to Luoyang, he will only have a vegetarian meal." ”
"Who invited you to Luoyang, you must know it in your heart, so why bother asking?" Wei Zheng sighed and said, "I didn't understand before, why Gongzi valued you so much, but when I saw it today, I realized that Gongzi's vision of people is very comparable." ”
The son in Wei Zheng's mouth is naturally Li Xuanba. Du Ruhui thought for a while and said, "What does he want to do?" ”
"Although I have known Childe for a long time, I don't hide it from Brother Keming, and I don't know what Childe wants to do." Wei Zheng shook his head and said, "Now that the words have been explained, I don't know what your plans are?" ”
Du Ruhui picked up a chess piece, rubbed it with two fingers, bowed his head and said nothing, Wei Zheng did not urge, and waited patiently.
"If I don't go to Luoyang, what will happen to your son?" Du Ruhui thought for a while, then raised his head and asked, "Since he let you come to Daxing alone, there should be no intention of persecution." ”
Wei Zheng replied: "Childe really didn't mean to persecute you, but Childe also said that you would not refuse." ”
Du Ruhui instantly became curious about Li Xuanba, since King Zhao ordered it, of course he had to go to Luoyang, but whether he went voluntarily or not made a big difference, it seemed that Li Xuanba guessed that he would go to Luoyang willingly.
"Why did he dare to say that?" Du Ru asked puzzled.
No matter how smart Du Ruhui was, it was impossible for him to guess Li Xuanba's thoughts, after all, he had never seen this son of the Li family who escaped death. Even if Li Xuanba was later summoned to Luoyang, Du Ruhui still didn't pay attention to him.
Therefore, Li Xuanba was able to guess his thoughts, which made Du Ruhui very strange and curious, and at the same time, he was also a little afraid.
"Childe said, this question, he will answer you personally in the future." Wei Zheng said with a smile.
"In this case, when Keming packs up, he will accompany Brother Xuancheng to the Eastern Capital tomorrow." Du Ruhui bowed and saluted, and said: "I didn't know Brother Xuancheng's intention just now, I was offended, and I still hope that Brother Xuancheng Haihan." ”
Wei Zheng only now understands that Du Ruhui has been deliberately putting on a face to show himself, and he hurriedly helped Du Ruhui up, and asked him strangely why he did this.
"I always have to figure out what kind of people I'm going to work with in the future." Du Ruhui said with a smile.
Du Ruhui is talented, he is not willing to be unknown, the reason why he resigned is just because he feels that his position is too low to display his talents.
But this time when he goes to Luoyang, the situation will be different, and he will no longer face Yang Guang, but Yang Gao.
Wei Zheng was tired of driving, and his eyes were bloodshot, but Wei Zheng was very happy to complete the task assigned by Li Xuanba. He gladly accepted Du Ruhui's suggestion and stayed in Du Mansion for one night.
On an ox cart, Fang Xuanling asked the same question: why did Li Xuanba invite him to Luoyang.
Fang Xuanling became famous at a young age, but he did not reach the point of shocking the world, he couldn't figure out why Li Xuanba thought of him.
"Childe's intelligence, how can we compare with it?" Li Gou pretended to say: "In the same way, the mind of the son is not something that we subordinates can guess through. ”
Fang Xuanling is different from Du Ruhui.
Du Ruhui claims to be a civilian, but no one will treat him as a civilian, on the contrary, although Fang Xuanling has a half-official position, but in the eyes of Luoyang officials, there is no difference between him and a civilian at all.
King Zhao's order, Du Ruhui wanted to resign, but he always had some confidence, but Fang Xuanling could only pack up his belongings, dismiss the slaves, and go to Luoyang with his family and the old housekeeper.
Fang Xuanling's father was not lightly ill and had to be taken care of, and it happened that the old housekeeper was helpless, so he took him with him.
"What kind of person is Zhongyongwei?" Fang Xuanling asked curiously: "I only heard that His Majesty plans to marry the princess to him, but I didn't expect that as soon as Your Majesty leaves, he will already be able to control the court." ”
"Mr. Fang should pay attention to what he says." Li Gou said unhappily: "It was King Zhao who invited you to Luoyang, and the son just heard that Mr. was talented, and recommended it to King Zhao. ”
As the so-called Xiucai meets soldiers, it is unreasonable to say, Fang Xuanling is an authentic literati, so he naturally did not dare to argue with Li Gou, and said: "There is no other meaning in the bottom." ”
Three carriages slowly drove into the Luoyang City Gate, and a boat also stopped on the shore of Luoshui.
The Tang Mansion still often heard the sound of weapons colliding, Wei Zheng and Li Gou's departure, did not attract anyone's attention at all, today the two of them entered Luoyang City at the same time, and those who had a heart found that they had left.
After dinner, Wei Zheng invited Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui into the study, and Li Gou stood guard outside the door, not letting anyone approach.
