Luoyang City was quiet all night, and it seemed that a storm was coming.

When the Tang Mansion opened the door, the early dynasty had ended, but nothing major had happened.

Li Xuanba did not take Wei Zheng into the palace, and the civil and military officials did not submit the recital. Under Pei Yun's gaze, many people clutched their sleeves tightly, for fear that the folds in their sleeves would fall off, even Yuwenshu, whose body had finally recovered, remained silent in the court.

In fact, not everyone is silent, such as Master Pei Yunpei.

The hundred officials entered the Qianyang Palace, and after kneeling to the emperor, they took their seats. Gonggong Li asked the hundred officials if they had anything to play, Master Pei stood up, took out a copy of the music from his arms, knelt in the hall, and bowed: "Weichen Pei Yun, there is something to play." ”

Yang Guang motioned to Gonggong Li to present the fold, opened it and glanced at it, then threw it on the dragon case, and said: "Thousands of imperial histories, good and bad, some people know and don't report it, what does it have to do with Master Pei?" Get up quickly. ”

Pei Yun cried bitterly and thanked him, and the early dynasty was over.

Many ministers originally planned to watch Pei Yun fall, but they didn't want to see Pei Yun acting in a scene by himself, and they couldn't help but be disappointed.

Back at the house, the adults threw the excerpts they wrote last night into the charcoal stove, and scolded Li Xuanba in their hearts: Since you don't go to court, why do you bring Wei Zheng back to the mansion?

On this day, Wei Zheng got up very early, carefully freshened up, took out a new set of official clothes from his baggage, put them on neatly, and sat in the room to wait. He, like those ministers, thought that Li Xuanba would take him into the palace.

After last night's attack, Wei Zheng had a trace of contradiction about the matter of facing the saint, he knew Yang Guang's character, and he also knew what kind of outcome he would face after facing the saint. Before last night, he relied on his enthusiasm and spared his own life, but he really faced death, Wei Zheng unconsciously thought about it, is it right for him to be a moth to a fire?

"Taoguang is obscure, Lord Zhongyongwei can say these four words, who will dare to say that he is an idiot in the future?" Wei Zheng sighed and said to himself, "Since his life was saved by him, I will hand it over to him." ”

Because of the contradiction in his heart, Wei Zheng never left the room, even if the sunlight outside the house shone through the window to Wei Zheng's feet, he didn't have the idea of getting up.

It was almost noon, Li Xing knocked on the door, and Wei Zheng took a long breath and opened the door.

Li Xing couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Wei Zheng wearing the official mansion, and asked softly, "Mr. Wei, is this?" ”

Wei Zheng saw that Li Xing was the only one outside the house, and arched his hand and said, "Dare to ask if Lord Zhongyongwei is still in the house?" ”

"Childe went to Guozijian to study early in the morning." Li Xing replied a little embarrassed, after all, he knew what Li Xuanba was doing in the Guozijian. After a pause, Li Xing continued: "Before the son left, he told the villain to take good care of Mr., the villain thought that Mr. was frightened last night and would sleep a little longer, so he didn't call Mr. at breakfast, and I hope Mr. will not blame." ”

Wei Zheng shook his head and said, "The lower officials live in the mansion, and they are carefully cared for by you, and it is too late to be grateful, so why blame it." ”

The two exchanged politeness, and Li Xing said: "Sir, it's not too early, the villain takes Mr. to the front hall for dinner." ”

Wei Zheng naturally refused, insisting on eating only in the side hall, where Li Xing could not beat Wei Zheng, and as a last resort, he sent someone to move the food to the side hall.

After being depressed for nearly a month, Wei Zheng did suffer a lot, seeing a table of good dishes, Wei Zheng was not in a hurry to move the chopsticks, he stared at the dishes for a while, and cried despite the presence of others.

Li Xing guessed why Wei Zheng was crying, comforted him a few words, and persuaded him to fill his stomach first, and then think about the affairs of the people in the world. Fortunately, Wei Zheng is not a hypocritical person, and after crying for a while, he ate something at random.

However, at the dinner table, Wei Zheng discovered a strange thing, the subordinates of the Li Mansion were all sitting on the edge of the dinner table, and there was no discomfort in the slightest. But now that he is sending people under the fence, how can he ask more?

Wei Zheng chewed the cake quietly, the taste was the same as chewing wax.

After eating, the subordinates cleaned up and exited the side hall, leaving only Wei Zheng and Li Xing.

"Lord Zhongyongwei is still some hours away from school, and the lower official will not wait for the adult, and please ask Steward Li to express his gratitude on behalf of the lower official." Wei Zheng took a deep look and said.

"Mr. still call the villain Li Xing, the son said, the master is not here, there are not so many rules in the Tang State Mansion." Li Xing gave Wei Zheng's gift, and said with a smile: "Childe asked the villain to take care of Mr., if Mr. doesn't say goodbye, I'm afraid that when Childe comes back, the villain will not be able to explain, so please wait for Mr. to come back." ”

"This" Wei Zheng hesitated for a moment and decided to stay. He wanted to know what Li Xuanba was going to do. Moreover, he was a little curious, what kind of person this Li Xuanba was

"Li Gou, when did you decide to follow me?" On the way back from Guozijian, Li Xuanba asked with great interest: "According to what you did, you seemed to be protecting me before Your Majesty gave you to me, why is this?" ”

"Maybe from when Gongzi took me to Guiyue Tower." Li Gou smiled and said, "People like us, being able to meet a master like Gongzi is a blessing from the previous life, how can the villain not cherish it?" ”

When Li Xuanba heard this, he smiled and said: "I didn't see it before, you are so good at talking, if Your Majesty keeps you by your side, I am afraid that you will also be a traitorous minister." ”

Li Gou put on an innocent expression and said, "Childe also underestimates me too much. ”

The two looked at each other and laughed.

"By the way, didn't Childe's classmates say something?" Li Gou thought of the news that came out of the court in the morning, and asked with some curiosity: "They returned to the house at noon, those adults should let them test the son, right?" ”

"Isn't it ashamed that they are expecting me to do what they dare not do themselves?" Li Xuanba said lightly: "Besides, Master Pei asked for this hand in the early dynasty, and he played so beautifully, even if I took Wei Zheng into the court, I am afraid that it will have no effect." ”

"After what happened last night, presumably Wei Zheng has become a thorn in Master Pei's heart." Li Gou thought for a while and said, "Isn't Gongzi afraid of offending Master Pei by leaving him in the mansion?" ”

"He sent someone to assassinate me, and I haven't settled accounts with him yet, do I still have to worry about offending him?" Li Xuan said domineeringly: "Now that I have made a clear posture, if he still doesn't understand the reason, he won't be able to climb to his current position." ”

Li Gou nodded thoughtfully, but there was one more thing he didn't understand, so he asked, "In that case, what does the prince mean by leaving Wei Zheng in the mansion?" The villain doesn't believe it, Childe just has a compassionate heart. ”

Li Xuanba kicked Li Gou and scolded with a smile: "Why can't this son be merciful? After scolding, Li Xuanba still explained: "Your Majesty treats me well, of course I want to repay Your Majesty, Wei Zheng is a great talent, but he was buried in the troubled times." ”

Li Gou scratched his head as he learned from Li Xuanba, and he was very puzzled in his heart: Gongzi and Wei Zheng are not familiar with each other, how can he be sure that Wei Zheng is a great talent?

Li Xuanba saw that Li Gou still had doubts, but it was inconvenient to explain too much, so he said perfunctorily: "Mr. Wei dares to be loyal and straightforward, based on this alone, if he dies in the hands of Master Pei, it is enough to be regrettable." ”

Li Gou understood and nodded.
