Chapter 495: Failed Proposal

If Cai Yong hadn't known the true situation of Wei Zhongdao, he would have noticed the trap left by Wei Qi in the language, but it was precisely because of Wei Qi's words that Cai Yong affirmed that the news about Wei Zhongdao that Liu Xin told him before was true, after all, if Wei Zhongdao was not seriously ill, Wei Qian would not have deliberately ignored this condition like this, but emphasized that Wei Zhongdao met his first two conditions, which is obviously a thief, so he wants to divert his attention.

Therefore, Cai Yong's favorability towards Wei Qi has been declining rapidly, after all, at the beginning, Cai Yong was because Wei Qi was a young man who was erudite and talented, so Cai Yong and Wei Qi became New Year's friends, but now Wei Qi has begun to deceive himself, and Cai Yong has to suspect that Wei Qian is just to deceive himself, and wants to let himself marry Cai Yan to Wei Zhongdao, so he intends to make friends with himself, which makes Cai Yong feel that he was deceived by Wei Qi very miserably, if it weren't for Liu Xin reminding himself in advance today, Let yourself know about Wei Zhongdao's situation, otherwise Cai Yong felt that he was afraid that he would fall for Wei Zhongdao's routine, and promised to marry Cai Yan to Wei Zhongdao.

After all, if you ignore the fact that Wei Zhongdao is a sick son, Cai Yong also thinks that Wei Zhongdao is a good candidate for a son-in-law, after all, Wei Zhongdao is the son-in-law of the Hedong Wei family and the second son of the head of the Hedong Wei family.

But it's a pity that there is a good saying, "One white covers a hundred ugliness, one fat destroys everything", Wei Zhongdao's serious illness may bring the result to Cai Yan, Cai Yong also understands it very well, so Cai Yong also knows that Wei Zhongdao is a big fire pit, if Cai Yan jumps down, I'm afraid there is no way to climb up again, so Cai Yong will never do anything to push Cai Yan into the fire pit with his own hands!

But it's still that sentence, although Cai Yong is not afraid of offending the Hedong Wei family, but no one will want to provoke a first-class family of the Han Dynasty, after all, at Cai Yong's level, everyone is looking down and not looking up, after all, they want to save face for Wei Qi, or the Hedong Wei family, so Cai Yong hopes to make Wei Qi retreat.

So, Cai Yong held back the unhappiness in his heart, and still said to Wei Qi with a smile on his face: "Brother Boru, according to what you say, this younger brother of yours Wei Zhongdao is in such a good situation, and I am also very tempted, but don't blame me for talking too much, with the ability of your Hedong Wei family, Brother Boru, and your younger brother Wei Zhongdao is already thirteen years old, why haven't you set a good family affair?" ”

Cai Yong's question can be described as hitting the nail on the head, after all, as Cai Yong said, according to the situation of the Wei family in Hedong, as the second son of the head of the family, Wei Zhongdao should have set a family affair a long time ago, after all, it is not good to say, like the sons of these big families, they are basically the best personnel in political marriage, and they are the best weight to maintain the position of the head of the family in their side branches, after all, although the family infighting is an important means to determine the position of the head of the family, but with the help of other families, It is also an important weight to sit on the position of the head of the family, among which political marriage is the best choice.

Whether it is the Hedong Wei family or the Hongnong Yang family, it is the same in this regard, a family will have a political marriage with several family families that are about the same level as it, but as long as you look closely, it is not difficult to find that each side branch of this family will have a political marriage with a fixed family family, and the other side branches will basically not have a political marriage with this family family, which is also a kind of convention and customary rule, after all, a family will only support a side branch. Therefore, those first-class families of the Han Dynasty, basically the sons of their families will be fixed to carry out political marriages with the daughters of several families, and rarely choose the object of political marriage from other families.

Therefore, Wei Zhongdao of the Hedong Wei family is also an important political marriage weight for the side branch where Wei Qi is located, it stands to reason that a marriage should have been arranged a long time ago, and it stands to reason that it is not Cai Yong's turn, although the Hedong Wei family is also a Confucian family, and Cai Yong is also one of the most famous contemporary scribes, but for the battle for the position of the head of the Hedong Wei family, Cai Yong is basically useless.

Therefore, Cai Yong's question made Wei Qian only secretly say that it was bad, after all, Cai Yong got to the point, Wei Zhongdao is now thirteen years old, and he didn't arrange a marriage, which is not realistic no matter how you look at it, and there is a problem at first glance.

However, Wei Qi can be regarded as ready, and has already prepared a set of rhetoric, so Wei Qi quickly reacted, nodded with a smile, and said to Cai Yong: "Mr. Cai, this question is very good, in fact, things are like this, the reason why his younger brother Wei Zhongdao has not decided on a family business until now is actually because his younger brother Wei Zhongdao met a Taoist priest when he was a child, and after seeing my younger brother Wei Zhongdao, he told his father, Wei Zhongdao can't casually set a family business before he is thirteen years old, otherwise he may harm others and himself, and both die, but as long as Wei Zhongdao reaches the age of thirteen, there will be no problem, at this time, Wei Zhongdao had better find a wife from a scholarly family, so he can get along with each other and grow old, so his father has the idea that he would rather believe in what he has and not believe in his nothing, so he has not arranged a family affair for his younger brother Wei Zhongdao, until his younger brother Wei Zhongdao passed his thirteenth birthday two days ago. After all, Mr. Cai, you also said that the younger brothers are now thirteen years old, and the result has not yet set a family matter, isn't it a bit embarrassing to say it, so the father in Xia began to inquire in many ways, and heard that Mr. Cai, you have a young lady under your knees, which just meets the conditions proposed by the Taoist priest of Youfang, after all, Mr. Cai, you are one of the best scribes in the Han Dynasty, so Mr. Cai, your family is naturally a scholar. It just so happened that my father also heard that you were friends with Mr. Cai, so my father asked to propose to Mr. Cai in Xia, hoping that Mr. Cai you could marry Miss Cai to your younger brother Wei Zhongdao. ”

Wei Qian's words are also reasonable and convincing, but this is also based on the fact that others don't know anything about Wei Zhongdao's true situation, as Cai Yong, who already knows the truth, it is naturally impossible to believe Wei Qi's words, and Cai Yong is also very disappointed in Wei Qi, after all, Wei Qi is full of nonsense, in the face of such obvious doubts about himself, he is still thinking about how to deceive himself, which makes Cai Yong feel that his IQ has been insulted...

And Liu Xin, who was sitting on the sidelines, could only say to Wei Qi in his heart, "Piercing the heart, Lao Tie", he was able to casually make up such a bloody story, but Liu Xin stood in the perspective of a bystander, Liu Xin felt that he was about to believe Wei Qi's words, after all, for people in ancient China, such stories are actually very common, after all, the prevalence of Zhou Yi's doctrine made people in ancient China willing to believe in the prophecies of those Taoist priests, so in many historical records, some Taoist prophecies are mentionedOf course, most of these so-called "prophecies" are actually some people who deliberately pretend to "prophecy" in order to achieve their own goals.

However, for Liu Xin, who knew the cause and effect of the incident, he naturally knew that Wei Qi's words were all made up temporarily, and they were full of loopholes, but Liu Xin also knew that Cai Yong had discovered this fact, so Liu Xin continued to drink tea quietly, looking like he had nothing to do with himself, and sat aside to continue to watch the show.

And Cai Yong pondered for a moment, and felt that he should still save face for Wei Qi, after all, although Cai Yong did not fully believe Wei Qi's words, Cai Yong believed Wei Qi's last sentence, that is, Wei Qi said that he was asked by his father to propose to Cai Yong on behalf of Wei Zhongdao.

After all, Cai Yong has known Wei Qi for a while, and knows that Wei Qi is not bad, and he is a decent gentleman, so he should not do such a shameful and conspicuous thing.

So Cai Yong believes that it was Wei Qian's father who asked Wei Qian to do this, after all, as Wei Qian said, Wei Zhongdao, who has not decided on a family business at the age of thirteen, will undoubtedly become the black history of the Hedong Wei family, and Wei Qi's father is not willing to see it, so he will look for a suitable family business for Wei Zhongdao everywhere, and now he has found his own head, and Wei Qian was forced by the pressure of his father, as well as the pressure of the entire Hedong Wei family, he had to do these things today, Cai Yong can only express his understanding of Wei Qi's current approach, so Cai Yong also wants to save face for Wei Qi.

So, Cai Yong's face was straight, and he decided to solve the problem simply, after all, there was no point in talking about this matter, so Cai Yong said meaningfully to Wei Qi: "Brother Boru, in fact, I heard such a rumor, saying that it is your younger brother Wei Zhongdao who has been seriously ill since he was a child, I don't know if it can be taken seriously?" ”

Cai Yong's words undoubtedly made the matter clear, after all, although Cai Yong said it was a rumor, but this is undoubtedly the truth, after all, the true situation about Wei Zhongdao, although it is not known all over the city, but it is also circulated among the high-level leaders in Luoyang City, although the Hedong Wei family has also refuted rumors before, but the effect is almost zero, after all, the people who know this rumor are some big people, and naturally learned about this matter through some reliable news channels, so over time, the Hedong Wei family also gave up the last struggle, Acquiescing to the truth of this rumor ...

Therefore, after Wei Qi heard that Cai Yong knew the true situation of Wei Zhongdao, he could only sigh silently, because Wei Qi knew that Cai Yong already knew the truth, and he also knew that he was deceiving him.

Thinking of this, Wei Qi also gave up the last struggle, after all, Cai Yong knew the true situation of Wei Zhongdao, and if he continued to quibble like this, he would only be more embarrassed, and Wei Qi also knew that Cai Yong was now saving face for himself, after all, there was still a Liu Xin sitting next to him, if he really wanted to tear his face, then Liu Xin would also have a bad image of himself and the entire Hedong Wei family...

Thinking of Wei Qi here, he could only shake his head with a wry smile, sighed helplessly, and said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Cai, I deceived you, just like the rumor you know, Mr. Cai, the younger brother Wei Zhongdao has been seriously ill since he was a child, and he grew up holding a medicine jar, so he has never found a suitable family business, after all, Mr. Cai, you also know that in a family like Zaixia, face is very important, and the sister-in-law of the head of the family must definitely set a suitable family business. But in the case of the younger brother, it is undoubtedly very difficult, after all, those families who have a suitable object are unwilling to marry with the family below, so up to now, the younger brother under has not decided on a suitable family matter. ”

"As a result, a few days ago, Zaixia's father first inquired about Miss Cai's situation, and then knew the relationship between Zai Xia and Mr. Cai, so there are these bad things today, I have to say that Zai Xia is very sorry to deceive Mr. Cai, but I don't ask Mr. Cai that you can forgive me, I just hope that Mr. Cai, you can not make this matter public, and leave a face for Zaixia, as well as the Hedong Wei family where Zai is located, after all, the matter of the younger brother in Xia, has made the family's reputation dusty, and such a thing happened today, and I really can't go away, so I hope that Mr. Cai you can give face to the next one, and in the future, I will also send a generous gift to Mr. Cai on behalf of the Hedong Wei family to show reparation... ”

Wei Qi said, while looking at Wei Qi with apologetic eyes, begging for Cai Yong's forgiveness, after all, just like Wei Qi said, if these things that happened today are spread, it will be a huge blow to the Hedong Wei family, after all, as a first-class family of the Han Dynasty, it is undoubtedly despicable to do such a cheating marriage, and then the reputation of the Hedong Wei family will definitely plummet, and then it will be accompanied by all kinds of events that are unfavorable to the Hedong Wei family, after all, at this time, There will be no shortage of people who fall into the well.

And even if it is the Hedong Wei family, it is impossible to force Cai Yong to shut up, so Wei Qian can only give heavy profits, hoping that Cai Yong can rot this matter in his heart.

And Cai Yong didn't plan to talk about this matter, after all, although Cai Yong was the victim, it didn't cause any actual loss to Cai Yong, so Cai Yong didn't plan to chase and beat the Hedong Wei family, not to mention that this would be completely opposed to the Hedong Wei family, so Cai Yong opened his mouth and said: "Brother Boru, let's treat this incident as if it didn't happen, after all, I also understand your difficulties, so be it." ”
