Volume 6 Chapter 48 Human Mirror, Human King
The state is the fief of Li Su, the king of Shu, and the state of Qi is the fief of Li You, the king of Qi. Flowing from the place. Qizhou came the most. So Wei Zheng focused on Qi Wangyou.
His Majesty Li Er snorted heavily, Wei Yan's face was full of confusion, he turned his head to look around, and asked, "Your Majesty, is there any taboo in it?" Or shouldn't the displaced people be relieved and left to fend for themselves? ”
His Majesty Li Er glared at Wei Yan again and did not speak. Wei Zheng said: "Ziyue did a good job, there is nothing wrong, but why don't you naturalize those displaced people?" ”
Wei Yan was surprised: "Do you still want to be naturalized?" I don't know, the affairs of the homeless people are all handed over to the housekeeper in my house, and I still need to ask the housekeeper to know. ”
"If you don't learn, you can't do it!"
Despised again. Wei Yan pursed his mouth, kept his head and didn't speak, but just looked at His Majesty Li Er innocently, and didn't have the courage to refute. Wei Zheng was not afraid of His Majesty Li Er's black face, and his face was still full of seriousness, and said: "Your Majesty, it is the fault of the two princes that Wang You of Qi and King Shu made mistakes, causing the people of the fiefdom to flee from the famine. His Majesty reproached Wei Ziyue like this, which violated the virtue of the king. ”
Human Mirror Wei Zheng! Idol!
Wei Yan's eyes shone with the light of the stars, and he looked at Wei Zheng with admiration, he really deserved to be the first minister of the ages, and he dared to say this in front of His Majesty Li Er, idol! Adore!
His Majesty Li Er's face darkened a little again, his expression was quite ugly, and he said angrily: "Wei Zheng! What's wrong with me? ”
Wei Zheng talked eloquently: "The so-called son does not teach, the father's fault." Qi Wangyou and Shu Wangyou are both sons of His Majesty. Your Majesty did not teach his sons well, which led them to misconduct and harm the people, and His Majesty is also responsible; The Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, Yu Shitai is responsible for picketing, the two princes make mistakes, His Majesty does not blame the prince, but blames the innocent Wei Ziyue for taking in the homeless people. It does not conform to the virtue of the king. ”
Wei Zheng's words were sonorous and powerful. Wei Yan was drenched in a cold sweat when he heard this. I really dare to say it, old man Wei Zheng. I looked at him very admirably, and I saw that Wei Zheng was sitting with his eyes and nose and heart, and he was awe-inspiring.
His Majesty Li Er didn't speak, and Wei Zheng continued: "If the law doesn't work, it will be violated from above." If the world is not ruled together, the country will be lawless. Therefore, Tang Wu does not follow the ancient times and is king. Xia Yin died of not easy manners. Those who are anti-ancient are not to be blamed, and there are not many people who follow the rites. ”
"Wei Zheng's old horseman!"
His Majesty Li Er was amused by Wei Zheng, with a vicious expression, as if he wanted to kill Wei Zheng to relieve his hatred. On the other hand, Wei Zheng's expression is still there, the old god is still there, righteous and awe-inspiring, and not afraid. Looking at other people's expressions and expressions, it seems to have become commonplace. It seems that His Majesty Li Er was accused by Wei Zheng so face-to-face. It's not once or twice. But. After watching it for a long time, Wei Yan also understood, he was also a wronged man. His Majesty Li Er, who was embarrassed and felt that he couldn't get off the stage, brought it out of anger.
His Majesty Li Er glared at Wei Zheng for a long time, and said coldly: "Wei Yan, why didn't you report to the imperial court at the beginning of the shelter of the homeless?" ”
Wei Yan scratched his head and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the first time Zhuangzi came to the homeless people in the cold winter, the heavy snow crushed the farmer's land and houses, when I took people to help repair the house, I saw two strong men come to beg, scolded them twice, only to know that they escaped from the famine." Two big men have to take care of a group of people, the situation is very pitiful, I relented for a while, let them live in the side courtyard of my house, and first borrowed food for them to spend the winter. The minister is not very familiar with the imperial court decrees, and he doesn't know what to do, although Uncle Cheng, the housekeeper of the family, is a sophisticated person, but he is also a little unfamiliar with the things in the official face, and he only knows that it is not too late to become a naturalized citizen after settling down. Otherwise, I didn't think much about it. In line with the principle of giving priority to human life, it was decided to save people first, and the rest of the things that could be postponed were postponed. Those people were so hungry that they had been hungry for several days, and they had to drink gruel for a day before they dared to let them eat dry food, and the situation was so miserable that it was unspeakable. At that time, I was only thinking about saving people, and I didn't have time to think too much, Your Majesty. ”
Wei Yan said what was from his heart. At that time, when I saw the miserable situation of those displaced people, I thought about relief with all my heart, but I didn't think about naturalization at all, and the housekeeper also inquired and said that he was not in a hurry to naturalize. Later, the reason was found out, and Wei Yan was even less busy letting them naturalize, who knows what His Majesty Li Er will do with his two sons. At this moment, Wei Yan gave a thumbs up to his decision, and he was still angry if he didn't become naturalized, who knows what it would be like if he became naturalized.
His Majesty Li Er glanced at Wei Yan coldly, and said: "Wei Yan, I often say that you have a pure heart, and now, you have also learned to hide it from others with others, with your slippery head and caution, how can you contain so many homeless people without asking clearly, you are too disappointing to me!" ”
Wei Yan's heart was on fire when he heard this, and he couldn't help but blurt out: "Since Your Majesty wants to listen to the truth, then the minister will tell the truth." Yes, the minister later learned the inside story, and knew that it was caused by the misbehavior of the two princes. However, even if the minister knows, what will the minister say? What to do? Did the minister come and tell His Majesty? That's the responsibility of the Imperial Tower, not a place where ministers can talk more! Just like His Majesty said, the minister is just a guy who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it, all he can do is to settle those displaced people, so that none of them will starve to death due to poor relief, and let everyone live well, so that in the future, they can return to their homeland safely, is it wrong for the minister to do this? Please teach me, Your Majesty! ”
Wei Yan knelt straight to the ground, and the grievances and anger in his heart were no longer hidden. His Majesty Li Er was stunned for a moment, looked at Wei Yan for a while, sighed, stepped down from the dragon seat, helped Wei Yan up, and said, "I let Ziyue be wronged!" ”
Wei Yan glanced at His Majesty Li Er, lowered his head again, and did not speak. His Majesty Li Er sighed: "I am not only an emperor, but also a father. The two little beasts made a mistake and got so angry that I had a headache, and I blamed you for my mistake. ”
Wei Yan said: "Your Majesty's words are serious, Your Majesty has always been good to your ministers, it is nothing to be wronged, and it is not necessary to disappoint Your Majesty." ”
His Majesty Li Er's expression softened a lot, and finally showed a faint smile, with emotion in his eyes, patted Wei Yan's shoulder, and ordered: "Pass Li You and Li Yu to Beijing immediately!" ”
Having received the order, the herald galloped away. As for the displaced people on Wei Yan Zhuangzi, they are all registered in the Wei Mansion. All of them were allocated to the Wei Mansion to supplement the Wei Fu's understaffing predicament.
After going to the court, His Majesty Li Er asked Wei Yan to stay and return to the Lizheng Hall with him. His Majesty Li Er snorted and said, "Wei Zheng's old puppet has repeatedly refuted me in front of the courtiers
It's hateful! ”
That expression, indescribable gritted teeth. Wei Yan smiled strangely in his heart, and said with a sincere smile on his face: "I think this is good." ”
His Majesty Li Er said: "What's good." I have no face or majesty. You kid. Didn't Wei Zheng excuse you with a few good words. Are you reciprocating? ”
Wei Yan Khan ran and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, you can't wronged Weichen anymore, then Weichen is really going to be humbled to death." ”
His Majesty Li Er smiled and said, "Whether it is a grievance or not, I will only know when I ask Ming." ”
As he spoke, he had arrived at the Lizheng Palace. Empress Changsun led her son and Xincheng to greet her at the door, Wei Yan smiled and waved to the little son, the little son pursed his lips and smiled, and saluted his father first, and after His Majesty Li Er was welcomed back to the apse by Empress Changsun to change clothes, he jumped up and ran to Wei Yan, and greeted him with a sweet smile: "Lord Wei, I heard that you were scolded by your father today." Is it? ”
Wei Yan crouched down. was pitiful, and said very aggrievedly: "Yes, yes, I was scolded so miserably." The little princess will comfort me. ”
The little son smiled sweetly, and said with seriousness in his eyes: "Brothers make mistakes, my father is angry, and my anger will naturally not be good, we must be considerate of my father, my father is so busy and hard!" Isn't it okay for the son to help his father accompany Lord Wei, okay? Is Lord Wei willing to forgive his father? The son likes Lord Wei and his father the most, and the son doesn't want his father to be angry with Lord Wei, and he doesn't want Lord Wei to be angry with his father. ”
Wei Yan was stunned, such a long list of words, it was difficult for her to say so clearly. This little girl is really getting more and more like the eldest grandson, so considerate of people.
"Good! Don't worry, little princess, it'll be fine, I'm afraid that Your Majesty will hit me. ”
The son smiled sweetly, took Wei Yan's hand, and went over to look at the words and drawings she wrote, the little girl's flying white, writing more and more like His Majesty Li Er's, but with a small hand, it looks like her mother's. The handwriting is better than that of Wei Yan, an adult. Wei Yan looked at the considerable number of notebooks she had written, but he was only sad in his heart.
Sneaking a peek, His Majesty Li Er hadn't come out yet. Wei Yan asked in a low voice, "Son, are you...... Do you feel lonely? ”
The son was stunned for a moment, and said with a slight smile: "No, the son is very happy." ”
Wei Yan smiled bitterly, touched her little head, took her little hand, and said, "You don't need to hide in front of me." I can't fool you since you watched you grow up so much. ”
The son pursed his lips and said in a low voice with a smile: "The queen mother has to take care of the studies of the prince's brother and the ninth brother, reply to Brother Tai, take care of the little sister Xincheng, the father wants to go to the court and deal with political affairs, the son is a good child, the queen mother and the father are so hard, the son has to learn to take care of himself, isn't this good?" ”
The normal treatment of the children in the middle, even the daughters of the emperor's family, are not immune. Wei Yan sighed silently in his heart and said with a smile: "Okay, my son is very well-behaved and sensible." However, my son doesn't go to my house to play, my Qiqi and Linlin miss you, and the small tree house is also messed up, and we all look forward to my son's going. In the future, when Gao Yang goes to my house, come together, okay? ”
Thinking of the fruit juice candy that coaxed her daughter to learn to walk, Wei Yan touched her pocket, took it out, and asked with a smile: "Eat together?" ”
The son happily twisted one into his mouth, and Wei Yan also took one in his mouth, and the two laughed together. The little princess of Xincheng ran over, and Wei Yan also stuffed one in her mouth. When His Majesty Li Er and Empress Changsun came out, what they saw was the scene of Wei Yan, an adult, leading two little girls, squatting and eating candy, and the three of them giggling together.
The emperor and queen looked at each other, and the eldest grandson queen covered her mouth and smiled, walked over to pick up Xincheng, and said with a smile: "Ziyue always seems to have candy on her?" ”
Wei Yan smiled and said, "I'm used to coaxing children at home." ”
Princess Xincheng was held in her mother's arms, but she still didn't forget to stare at Wei Yan's mouth and hands, and Wei Yan consciously contributed the small bag of candy she was carrying and handed it over.
Coaxed the two little princesses, Wei Yan came to His Majesty Li Er, and asked with a smile: "Your Majesty, you asked the ministers to stay, I don't know what to order?" ”
His Majesty Li Er's anger that seemed to have been hit by Wei Zheng had subsided, and he actually said with a smile: "Don't be busy talking, let's talk first, why do you want to help Wei Zheng speak?" ”
Wei Yan smiled: "Your Majesty, the reason is very simple. Throughout the ages, how many generations of emperors and how many virtuous ministers can be like Your Majesty? Your Majesty's ability to tolerate Lord Wei Zheng's direct admonitions shows that Your Majesty is broad-minded and knows how to make good use of others. With Wei Zheng here, in the world, more and more talents who can be used for His Majesty will be thrown into His Majesty, and everyone is eager to dedicate their talents to the virtuous king; There will also be more and more advice that His Majesty can hear, because everyone knows that His Majesty can listen to the truth, and he is not a person who is very happy. For example, the minister, the minister secretly pondered in his heart, Lord Wei Zheng is like that, His Majesty can tolerate it, and if the minister is like this, and he does not make a direct admonition, and he does not disobey His Majesty, His Majesty should also be able to treat the minister. ”
His Majesty Li Er, who praised these words, had a red face and said with a smile: "It seems that Wei Zheng is not only talented, his existence, but also such exemplary effects, okay, I don't blame him." ”
"Your Majesty is wise, open-minded, and admired."
Wei Yan said with a smile.
His Majesty Li Er waved his hand to show that it was nothing, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't pat yourself on the back." ”
Wei Yan smiled and said: "Your Majesty, what the minister said is the truth, the minister really admires Your Majesty, Lord Wei Zheng's temper, to be honest, it is really not welcome, Your Majesty can endure it for so many years, it is not easy." ”
His Majesty Li Er felt like a confidant, and pulled Wei Yan to spit out bitter water. Actually, these words are really Wei Yan's heart. To the old man Wei Zheng, when I read the history books, I thought this person was very good, but when I really got along with him, I found that this person was too unpopular, too serious, too dark-bellied, too calculating, and didn't leave any affection when it came to people. His Majesty Li Er can endure so many times, which is really admirable.
