Volume 7 Chapter 26 One needs to think twice before acting

"The interests of the country are no small matter?!"

His Majesty Li Er gently read the words that Wei Yan said casually, his eyes lit up, and he praised: "Good, very good!" Have you ever heard what Wei Yan said? National interests are no trivial matter, and in the future, the secretaries should always keep in mind and remind themselves at all times that they should not forget. ”

"Yes."

The ministers hurriedly saluted. Wei Yan was sweating a little profusely in his heart, and accidentally threw out a proverb, he really didn't mean it, he just said it in passing, Emei tofu.

was said by Wei Yan like this, of course, it is impossible for him to be transferred to the household department. His Majesty Li Er also pondered and understood, maybe this kid was not playing tricks, but telling the truth. Thinking back carefully about what this guy did after returning to the Tang Dynasty, if he wasn't soft-hearted, how could he be stupidly involved in royal affairs, and others were afraid to avoid it. Thinking of the benefits of the stinky boy in the past, His Majesty Li Er also gave up, and no longer said that he wanted him to be transferred to the household department, and he also loved that guy very much.

Wei Yan knows his own family affairs, and it is a problem to get a petty official in the idle department, but if he goes to a key department to serve as a powerful official, it means that he has to participate in the political struggle of the imperial court, those ministers in the Taiji Palace, who is not a tried and tested old fox, he went like this, it is estimated that he can only be cannon fodder, or it is better to settle down, he also wants to watch his son marry his daughter-in-law, and he hopes to hold his grandson in the future. The medical school is also a big official, and he is also a third-grade official. Wei Yan was satisfied.

There is no problem on the medical school's side, and the focus of the political discussion has shifted to other matters of the army's expedition, Wei Yan understands that he doesn't understand these things, and he doesn't interject, he just listens with his ears pricked up, and doesn't say anything else. It's also good to gain knowledge. In other words, I have never seen what the ancient army was like when they went on an expedition. At this time, listening to the discussion of the ministers, I realized that there were still many etiquettes and rules. Sacrifice is a national event, and sacrifices are made during the New Year's holidays. Red and white ceremonies are to be sacrificed, and this expedition is also to be sacrificed, listening to the rules and etiquette, Wei Yan feels quite novel.

On the end of the government. Wei Yan rubbed his eyes. This guy has a habit, as long as he is sick, he will fall asleep a lot, and he will sit in it for a long time, if it is not for talking about things on the ground or he is interested, he is afraid that he will have fallen asleep long ago. While rubbing his eyes and walking, Wei Yan suddenly found that it was Wei Zheng who was walking in front of him, and he was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that he had planned well during the autumn hunt. hurriedly rushed up and said, "Lord Wei, please stay." ”

Wei Zheng stopped, his serious face showed a rare smile, and said, "Ziyue called the old man." What's the matter? ”

It seems a bit abrupt to suddenly call someone. Wei Yan was a little embarrassed and said, "I don't know if Lord Wei is free." It's rare that the weather is good today, how about we go out for a drink? ”

Wei Zheng looked up at the gray sky, seemed to be smiling, and said, "Ziyue, is there something to find the old man?" The same is true here. ”

This old-fashioned and insidious stinky old man! Wei Yan hated itchy, but he was helpless, so he had to say: "It doesn't seem to be convenient here, it's cold, and my little nephew is still sick, please Uncle Wei take care of it." ”

Wei Yan looked pitiful, Wei Zheng was from the same generation as Qin Shubao, and it was not an exaggeration to call him uncle. Lin Lei Wei Zheng smiled and said: "In this way, the old man will disturb Ziyue for a meal, and say okay first, the old man is penniless, and Ziyue is treated." ”

Wei Yan sweated for a moment, and nodded busily, Wei Zheng is a so-called Qing official, and Yu Shitai seems to have no other source of income except for corruption and bribery. It seems that the Qing officials in these years, if they don't know how to operate, they can maintain their expenses with the family's land and property, and it seems that they can maintain their expenses, and their lives are better than ordinary people's, and they will not starve, but if they want to talk about luxury and comfort, it is far from enough.

The two of them went out of the palace together, and after Wei Yan asked Wei Zheng what he meant, he went to the restaurant, entered the private room, and called a table of hot pot. Wei Zheng said: "This hot pot is good, and the old man occasionally buys the base ingredients for the second come, and goes back to the kitchen to make it and eat it." ”

Wei Yan smiled: "If Lord Wei likes it, please use it, you're welcome." ”

Wei Zheng stirred the materials, glanced at Wei Yan inexplicably, and said: "Although the food is tempting, the old man must first know why Ziyue called the old man, otherwise, I am afraid that this meal will not be safe to eat." ”

Wei Yan scratched his head and said with a smile: "It's not a matter of urgency, let alone asking Uncle Wei for any help, Uncle Wei is upright and self-controlled, and the little nephew understands in his heart, the reason why he stopped Uncle Wei is just to chat casually and talk about family life." Uncle Wei's upright name, with His Majesty's monarchs and ministers, the reputation of the world is passed down all over the world, the younger nephew, admiring the uncle's demeanor, having a light meal, what special intentions will there be? ”

This kid is starting to call other people's uncles again. Wei Zheng smiled, no longer rigid, and began to eat, looking at the posture, there was no politeness, eating Xili snoring, Wei Yan was dumbfounded, and regretted it in his heart. Who said that Wei Zheng's old man was old-fashioned, and whoever said this in the future, he immediately threw a shoe on it! Ya is simply pretending. However, thinking about Old Man Wei's experience, you can also understand his intentions.

I think that Wei Zheng was a minister at the beginning of Li Jiancheng, the king of Xi, and came up with a lot of good ideas for Li Jiancheng, and even suggested to Li Jiancheng to kill His Royal Highness the King of Qin and now His Majesty Li Er. It's just that Li Jiancheng didn't listen to him all, otherwise, how could he end up with such a tragic end. Later, he was taken under the command of His Majesty Li Er. Just because of his embarrassing past, Wei Zheng wants to be a loyal minister, but it is no play, if he is a loyal minister, it will be a slap in the mouth by himself, and he has no position at all. As a result, Wei Zheng chose to be a direct minister, which is why he has a prominent reputation today.

Wei Zheng is a reader, a reader who is completely different from Kong Yingda, a reader who is completely different from Kong Yingda in his heart, thinking about his approach, what he wants in his heart, he can probably guess something, but Wei Yan has never understood, why would such a shrewd person do something that seems stupid? With so many years of dealing with His Majesty Li Er, can't he still understand the temperament of that Majesty? What a mystery of history!

Accompanied Wei Zheng Xili to snort and eat a hot pot, seeing that Wei Zheng was full and put down his chopsticks, Wei Yan also put down his chopsticks, and said with a smile: "Uncle Wei, you are full of food and drink, can you take the time to listen to the little nephew say a few words of homely things?" ”

Wei Zheng laughed. said: "The old man has long known that it is not easy to eat you, let's say it." What do you have to say? ”

Wei Yan smiled, and his face became thicker again. Scratch your head and think about it. simply said directly, "Uncle Wei, the little nephew heard a rumor and thought about it. It's better to listen to it with your uncle. ”

Wei Zhengqi said: "What kind of rumor is it?" Let Ziyue make such a decision? ”

Wei Yan said: "The little nephew heard that my uncle had recorded a message to His Majesty and showed it to Lord Chu Suiliang in private. The little nephew has always admired Uncle Wei's personality, and he didn't want his uncle to be hurt by the hands of the villain, so after hearing it, he made his own decision and asked his uncle to have a small dinner. ”

Wei Zheng was noncommittal. just smiled bitterly, laughed, and said: "Thank you Ziyue, as the saying goes, there is no wind and wall in the world." It seems that this is the case. Don't lie to me. ”

Wei Yan smiled and stopped talking. Wei Zheng settled his mind. He glanced at Wei Yan meaningfully, and said, "As a reward for Ziyue to inform you of this matter, the old man will ask your stepfather to beat you with thirty canes." Leave. ”

After that, he got up and left in a dashing manner, leaving Wei Yan to sit alone, gritting his teeth, stinky old man, kindly persuading him, he actually repaid him like this! Black! It's so black!

Wei Yan gritted his teeth and left the restaurant, and went home with an angry expression, not to mention how depressed he was. Xie Jiu was surprised and asked, "What's wrong?" Who made you angry? ”

As soon as Wei Yan said the matter, after speaking, he snorted angrily: "Madam, you say, is it good to repay your kindness?" Wei Zheng stinks old man, whether he is pushed to the tombstone or whipped corpse in the future, he will not be sympathetic anymore! ”

Xie Jiu ignored his angry words, contemplated with his eyebrows, and said, "I agree that you should be beaten with thirty rods!" ”

“…… Madam, why do you agree? We're the same family as you, right? Wei Yan couldn't laugh or cry. Xie Jiu glanced at him and said, "You are indeed reckless today." But...... I've also been reckless once, and we're even! ”

"Uh...... How so? ”

"Treating the queen is the place where I recklessly participated, although the result was good, but after all, it was willful. And Wei Zheng's matter, you were reckless, and the result is still unknown, but judging from Wei Zheng's words, he used to protect you as a thanks. ”

"I still don't understand!"

Wei Yan was honest and shook his head directly. Xie Jiu smiled bitterly and said angrily: "Do you know the reason why Wei Zheng was pushed to the tombstone in history?" ”

Wei Yan nodded and said, "It's just a half-understanding, it seems that because someone told Taizong that Wei Zheng privately told the historian Chu Suiliang, Taizong felt that he had lost face, so he whipped him and got angry." ”

Xie Jiu stroked his forehead and sighed: "Where did you see the wild history?" ”

Wei Yan was stunned: "What kind of wild history, this is the official history, right?" Belch...... Is there anything else that can't be hidden? Come, ma'am, tell me about my favorite stories, especially historical stories. ”

"You're poor!" Xie Jiu glanced at Wei Yan and said, "I have read the information in my mother's study, does Chen Yinke know?" ”

Wei Yan shook his head very honestly, and was right: "I don't know, if you ask who Karl is. Landsteiner, then I can tell you who Chen Yinke is, I don't slaughter sheep! ”

Xie Jiu said: "To put it simply, he is a very famous historian. As for why Taizong hated Wei Zheng in history, he hated Wei Zheng and knocked down his tombstone after Wei Zheng's death, Mr. Chen thought that it was not only because of the rumor you said, but because Wei Zheng violated Taizong's taboo. ”

Wei Yan is very humble and studious: "Please ask Madame for advice." ”

Xie Jiu said: "Wei Zheng's background is neither a Shandong noble, nor a Guanlong noble, nor a Shandong martial artist, so the task given to Wei Zheng by Taizong is to monitor the Shandong nobles and the Guanlong group, so as to divide and manipulate the political groups and achieve some political tricks." However, before Wei Zheng was alive, he recommended two people to Taizong---- Du Zhenglun and Hou Junji, saying that they had the talent of prime ministers. ”

Wei Yan rubbed his chin and said: "These two people, if I remember correctly, these two people are indeed very talented, putting aside the problem of prejudice, two guys can be competent as prime ministers." ”

Xie Jiu nodded in agreement and said, "That's true, but the problem lies with these two people." Du Zhenglun is a Shandong nobleman, and Hou Junji is the place of the Guanlong aristocratic group, you say, what will Taizong think if he knows that Wei Zheng recommended these two people? ”

Wei Yan gasped and said, "Form a party for personal gain!" This is really a king's taboo, especially Wei Zheng is still the person who was ordered to monitor these two groups, no wonder, no wonder. As soon as you say this, I also somewhat agree with Mr. Chen's point of view, but it's a pity that I crossed over, otherwise I would have gone to read Mr. Chen's writings. ”

Xie Jiu said: "Fortunately, these things were only exposed after Wei Zheng's death, and Taizong was angry and pushed his tombstone." ”

Wei Yan sighed: "No wonder, Taizong should have a lot of trust in Wei Zheng, otherwise he wouldn't have let him spy on two such important groups, we don't know what Wei Zheng thinks, but for Taizong, this is a naked betrayal." Fame and fortune, how many people in ancient and modern times have seen through it and sighed. ”

"Wei Zheng is also a human being, not a saint." Xie Jiu smiled and said, "Do you know why Wei Zheng said that he wanted his father-in-law to beat you with thirty rods?" ”

Wei Yan scratched his head depressedly, but his mouth was dry: "I understand, I will take the punishment myself, I must remember in the future, and I will no longer talk nonsense!" Even if it's the person I admire the most, I don't care. Madame remember to prepare healing medicine for me, and I will go. Xie Jiu touched his face and said with sympathy: "Good! Go ahead. Remember to pretend to be pitiful, and say that it will be easier to say that it is not defined that the father will be lighter...... Forget it, I'll go with you. ”

Wei Yan looked up to the sky and sighed: "I'm stupid, I'm from Mars!" Send yourself to the door to be beaten! Madam, you say, did I have a fever this time and burned my head stupidly? ”

Xie Jiu just smiled and said, "It's okay, just endure it." Wei Zheng owes you a favor no matter what he says, with his friendship with His Majesty, with his talent, there will be nothing wrong this time, you can be beaten once, just withdraw yourself. Well, bear with me. ”

Wei Yan drooped his head, depressed, such a big person will be spanked, and the more he lives, the more he will turn back! This time you must remember it for a long time, and you won't care about this kind of thing in the future!
