As soon as the boat arrived at the Weiqiao ferry, Wei Shuo quickly stepped off the boat, then turned over and got on the horse, and galloped towards Chang'an.

When he entered the Wei Mansion, it immediately caused a commotion.

Hearing the noise, Guo Yuan and several other ladies hurriedly led the child out to greet him.

Wei Shuo pushed aside the crowd, strode over to Guo Yuan and several other ladies, and said softly, "Madam." ”

Guo Yuan, Yin E, Tang Yao and others pulled Wei Shuo's arm, and there were a few crystal tears in their eyes.

Wei Shuo hurriedly helped the ladies wipe away their tears and said excitedly: "Today's family reunion is a good day, no one is allowed to cry." ”

He said he wouldn't cry, but he couldn't help but sob, causing Guo Yuan, Yin E, Tang Yao and others to cry along.

Of course, these are tears of joy and tears of joy.

"Mother, father, don't cry."

Just as the husband and wife were about to stage a bitter love scene, several children broke the atmosphere of the scene

Wei Shuo suddenly burst into tears and laughed, he stood in the middle of several children, looked at this, looked at that, and felt that which one was his own treasure.

Xiao Weiling didn't understand the emotions between his parents, so he only jumped around his father.

She hugged Wei Shuo's thighs and shouted impatiently: "Daddy, daddy, Ling'er misses you." ”

"Really?" Wei Shuo lowered his head, looked at his daughter's delicate face, and hugged each other with infinite pity.

"Of course." Wei Ling blinked at him.

Wei Shuo smiled, patted his daughter's jade neck lovingly, and nodded slightly to his wives.

When he returned to the house and just sat down, the eldest son Wei Shu led several boys to kowtow to Wei Shuo to say goodbye.

Next, Wei Shuo's family sat around and talked happily.

At dinner in the evening, everyone sat down around a large table, and the food was home-cooked, but it was sweeter than the delicacies of the mountains and seas.

When the children went down to rest, Wei Shuo had the opportunity to talk to several wives and concubines.

At night, Wei Shuo hugged Guo Yuan's waist and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

After a while, Wei Shuo blew out the candle and lay down with his wife.

……

In August of the first year of Long An, despite the hot weather, the whole Guanzhong was full of life.

Since most of the people have been protected into the main pass, the life of the people has been getting better and better.

As night fell, red lanterns were quietly hung in front of the shops on both sides of the street.

The red candlelight reflects the bright moonlight, creating a dazzling streamer.

It is close to the residence of Xicheng dignitaries, so there are fewer pedestrians.

Occasionally, a few children ran by, chasing and beating, and let out strings of laughter like silver bells.

At this moment, a horse-drawn carriage drove slowly down the street.

In the carriage, Zheng Wen was dressed in a plain Confucian robe, with his hands in his sleeves, and was sitting with his eyes closed, not knowing what he was thinking.

After the celebration banquet, the heads of all families were not in a hurry to leave Chang'an, including Zheng Wen and his son.

Each family has the custom of intermarrying with each other, and if it is deliberately related to each other, almost every family will be related to each other.

Zheng Wen was living at a relative's house, and tonight he was invited to Wei's house as a guest.

"Father, Wei Mansion has arrived."

"Take my post and knock on the door."

Zheng Wen said lightly, then opened the curtain and walked down.

After a while, the door of Wei's mansion creaked open, and I saw Wei Zhen come out in a brocade robe.

As soon as he saw Zheng Wen, he smiled and said, "Brother Zheng is a rare guest!" ”

Just now he was talking to a few heads of the family, and suddenly received a post from his subordinates, and then he knew that the head of the Zheng family had arrived.

As one of the representatives of the Central Plains family, whether it is a family or a clan, it is not much worse than Jingzhao Wei's.

Therefore, Wei Zhen did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly got up and went out to greet him.

"Brother Wei, I hope you will forgive me for visiting rashly."

"Hahaha, Brother Zheng is polite, please come into the cold house and sit down."

Saying that, Wei Zhen grabbed Zheng Wen's arm, and the two walked side by side towards the courtyard, Zheng Ye didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly followed.

Walking into the Wei family's study, Zheng Wen found that there were several people sitting inside.

Everyone saw Wei Zhen and Zheng Wen walking in, and hurriedly got up to greet them.

"This is the head of the Du family, and that is the head of the You family...... The few people next to him are all talents from major families. ”

With Wei Zhen's introduction, Zheng Wen stepped forward to greet everyone one by one, and the others returned the salute with a smile.

Everyone exchanged a few words of greeting and sat down one after another.

Wei Zhen ordered someone to clean up the study again, and served tea to Zheng Wen and his son.

"The old man summoned everyone tonight because he has a big deal to discuss with you." Wei Zhen got straight to the point.

"All of you present are talents from the family, and we can be said to be both prosperous and loss-making."

"In view of this, the old man will speak directly if he has something to say, if there is anything inconsiderate, please also ask everyone Haihan."

"Please also ask Wei Gong to make it clear, and I will listen to you."

"In recent years, due to the continuous wars and the fact that Hu Lu was in power, the families in various places suffered heavy losses, and the glory of the Wei and Jin dynasties was no longer restored."

"Finally, there was a hero of the Han family-Wei Dadu, but he didn't want to see me and other families."

"If most of them are not good at protecting their skills, then we don't need to take it to heart."

"But seeing that Dadu Hu has entered the main pass, and has achieved a great victory in Yecheng, half of his feet have stretched into the Central Plains."

"According to the current situation, most of the capital guards can also divide Guanlong and dominate the side."

"It is not even ruled out that in the end, Hexi will unify the northern land and become the second former Qin Empire."

"Since most of the protectors are heroes who do great things, then we need to bet and speculate earlier."

"Otherwise, when the overall situation is decided in the future, you and I may not even have a chance to cry and regret it."

"Oh, what Wei Gong said is very true! Can...... But I really don't know where to please the capital. ”

"Isn't it?! Most of them escorted the private soldiers and subordinates, and we did the same, but the effect was ......."

"That's right! In order to show his loyalty, the old man handed over most of the family's land, but my family's situation is still the same. ”

Wei Zhen tapped his fingers lightly on his thighs, and he heard from the complaints of everyone that the family was not opposed to taking refuge in Hexi, and even a little impatient.

This couldn't help but shock his spirits, and he had a little more confidence in the next plan, after all, this matter depends on the families to be successful.

If everyone is not optimistic about Hexi, then he doesn't have to talk in vain.

After a while, Wei Zhen said vaguely: "Relying on some old methods is no longer effective, I need to find another way." ”

At this time, Zheng Wen suddenly asked, "Brother Wei, what charter do you already have in your heart?" ”

"Gong Wei, if you have something to say, just say it, why bother going around?" A housemaster next to him also said.

Wei Zhen picked up the teacup and said with a smile: "Hehe, the old man always has to find out what he thinks before he can say it." ”

"Okay, you, Wei Zhen, have not been an official for a few years, but have become more and more unfathomable." Zheng Wen scolded with a smile.

After the joke, Wei Zhen put down the teacup, sighed and said, "Everyone, this matter is a bit risky, I don't know if you have the courage to fight with the old man?" ”

Zheng Wen couldn't help frowning, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Wei, what do you mean by this?" ”

"Although the general trend in the north has entered a situation of confrontation between the two heroes, the Wei State has missed the best opportunity to defeat Hexi."

"In the future, the state of Wei will deteriorate."

"As for Hexi...... Although most of the protectors do not like the family, they are quite like a wise monarch, and they will be able to achieve great things in the future. ”

"The question is, how will we and the rest of the family deal with themselves then? How to get a place in the new dynasty. ”

"The old man feels that we can't continue to be passive, and we must take the initiative to attract the attention of most of the capital."

"Otherwise, in the future, I am afraid that even the ordinary Hanmen clan will not be able to compare."

Speaking of this, Wei Zhen deliberately paused, waiting to attract everyone's attention.

Only then did he say loudly: "Now that most of the capital is famous, and there is one of the three parts of the world, it is time to stand on its own feet and build a country, otherwise why call on the world?" ”

"As far as my family is concerned, if you take the first step to persuade you, it will be a great achievement, and you and I will definitely be on the rise from now on."

"As early as a few months ago, the old man had already started to arrange this.

"Just because Guan Long was initially decided at that time, most of the guards were busy rectifying the place, and the old man kept holding back."

"Now it coincides with the great victory of Yecheng, and the situation in Guanzhong has stabilized, which is the best opportunity for Dadu to protect the emperor and build the country."

Wei Zhen's words made the eyes of all the family heads light up, and they seemed to feel that a broad road was paved in front of them, and the study suddenly became noisy.

"Most of the capitals are strong, and they are virtuous corporals, occupying half of the states and counties in the north, and their strength is the best."

"Even Hulu everywhere can be called the king and the emperor, and most of them can protect the emperor, so why not?"

"Most of them have been protected as emperors, and our family will naturally rise with the tide."

"There is no need to be like now, although it is very famous, it has never been able to integrate into the core high-level of Hexi."

"However, this matter needs to be considered in the long term."
