Chapter 16: The Tragic Buddhism, the Tragic Hu People
The next day, Wang Lang had just finished exercising in his small courtyard when he was called to the study by his old man. Wang Lang couldn't help but ask curiously when he saw the eldest brother with a happy face and the old man with a smile on his face
"Father, what's so good today? Are you and your eldest brother so happy? Could it be that the good day of the eldest brother has been set? ”
Wang Weizhou said with a smile
"No, no, His Majesty has made an order today."
Wang Lang asked curiously
"What did the emperor order?"
Wang Weizhou said excitedly
"It's about Jinzenji Temple. His Majesty took back the title of Jinchan Temple. Moreover, the master of wisdom has already ordered his arrest. His Majesty ordered a thorough investigation into the matter. In broad daylight, it is a felony to attack an official of the court on the street. This time, Jinchan Temple has planted a big heel. It's really relieving. Haha~"
Wang Lang was stunned and muttered to himself
"It seems that this prince is still very reliable. The emperor believed in him. No wonder there were eunuchs waiting. ”
Wang Gui was also listening to Wang Weizhou, but he found that his second son's surprised expression was only for a moment. Then it became normal again. I also heard my youngest son say something about the prince. Wang Gui couldn't help but ask suspiciously
"Fang'er, you just said the prince? Which prince? ”
Wang Weizhou also looked at Wang Lang curiously, and Wang Lang said
"I don't know what that prince's name is. I keep calling him uncle. ”
Wang Gui continued to ask
"Then you can describe to me what this prince looks like, and whether he has any special temperament or characteristics."
Wang Lang thought for a while and said
"It's a middle-aged man in his forties, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes. Qi Yu Xuanang, at a glance, you know that he is the kind of person who has been in the top position for a long time. ”
Wang Gui shook his head and asked again
"What else?"
Wang Lang thought for a while and said
"Oh~ By the way, there are eunuchs by the side of that prince. Looks white and chubby. ”
Wang Gui was stunned for a moment, his face became strange, and then he looked at his eldest son and found that Wang Weizhou was also like this. Wang Gui coughed and said
"Well, that, Fang'er. That prince didn't tell you who he was, so he naturally had a reason. You tell Daddy all the processes you've seen him. Dad, see if there's anything wrong with you. ”
Wang Lang nodded and started from the first time Zhao Xiang looked for him, and Wang Lang finished speaking in half an hour, sitting leisurely on the chair and drinking tea. Wang Gui's face turned into crying and laughing, and Wang Weizhou was even more dumbfounded.
Wang Weizhou asked with difficulty
"You really refused the request to marry the princess to you?"
Wang Lang nodded and said as a matter of course
"Yes, I am married to a daughter-in-law, not an ancestor. Seeing my daughter-in-law every day is like seeing my ancestors, so I don't want it. ”
Wang Gui nodded and said
"You made that economic blockade. The second thing His Majesty announced today is the economic blockade of the Hu people. ”
Wang Lang was a little surprised, because in this world, Wang Lang may be the only one who knows what economic warfare is. Although this is only the simplest application of economic warfare. But that's not something that people can accept today. Wang Lang couldn't help but sigh
"It seems that this prince has a lot of weight in the emperor's heart."
Wang Weizhou didn't know why he was holding back a smile, but nodded violently and said
"yes, yes. It's weighty. ”
Then he said excitedly
"You don't know, as soon as His Majesty came to court today, he announced the first thing. It's hard to look at Uncle Guo's eyes. ”
Wang Lang asked puzzled
"The title of the Golden Chan Temple has nothing to do with Uncle Guo. His face was ugly something. ”
Wang Weizhou said with a smile
"It doesn't matter, when His Majesty just ascended the throne, he was persuaded by his uncle to seal the title of Jinchan Temple. Now that His Majesty has withdrawn this title, do you think Uncle Guo's face can look good? ”
Wang Lang nodded and said in his heart
"It is estimated that this Jinchan Temple has something to do with Uncle Guo, otherwise Uncle Guo would not have wanted to lift Jinchan Temple so hard."
Wang Weizhou took a sip of water and continued
"The second thing is about dealing with the Hu people. His Majesty decreed that the Hu people were treacherous, unrepentant, and extinguished their conscience. Kill my people and take my property captive. The demonstrations were disloyal and unjust, blocking the source of daily necessities and banning the sale of all technical capabilities, such as smelting, planting, and making tools. Moreover, all daily necessities such as salt, tea and so on are prohibited. ”
Wang Lang was also happy when he heard his eldest brother say it. Heartway
"This emperor is really ruthless, what he didn't expect, inconsequential things have been sealed."
Wang Weizhou said with a smile
"Brother, you weren't there at the time, you didn't see how fierce the reaction of that group of ministers was, and they have been using the way of a saint and the state of etiquette to persuade Your Majesty, do you know what Your Majesty said?"
Wang Lang shook his head, and Wang Weizhou said excitedly
"Your Majesty said, Lord Liu, I heard that you have a daughter who just turned sixteen this year, right? Then I will crown her as Princess Heshun today and recognize her as a righteous daughter. Marry to the Hu people. I see that you are also a master of Confucianism, and it is not good to watch your daughter suffer, so let's go to Hu Renna with your daughter. Teach them what the way of the saints, the state of rituals. Let them not dance with knives and guns every day, it is against the words of the saints. ”
Wang Lang snorted and said in his heart
"This prince is so interesting, he used all the bad ideas he gave him. It's just so talented. ”
Wang Weizhou was still sighing on the side
"Your Majesty is wise."
Wang Lang couldn't help listening to his eldest brother's sigh, and sat on the chair and laughed, Wang Weizhou asked suspiciously
"Brother, what's wrong? Am I wrong about what I said? ”
Wang Lang hurriedly shook his head and said
"That's right, that's right, Big Brother is right. Your Majesty is indeed wise. ”
Wang Weizhou nodded and didn't care, but suddenly remembered something and said to Wang Lang
"By the way, His Majesty said one more thing today."
Wang Gui was also stunned, and then said as if he remembered something
"Yes, at the end of the day, His Majesty seems to have said that he would set up some kind of fine prison. Listening to His Majesty's meaning, it is necessary to cultivate and use it for the purpose of probing the enemy's intelligence. I really can't guess what His Majesty is thinking. ”
Suddenly, Wang Gui looked at Wang Lang and said hesitantly
"Fang'er, I remember you told that you told the monk to be a meticulous worker and spy on the situation of the Hu people, right?"
Wang Weizhou nodded and said
"Yes, there's such a thing, but that's just an idea. It's not perfect. ”
Wang Gui frowned, nodded thoughtfully, and did not speak.
At this time, I heard a burst of chickens and dogs jumping outside the house, and Wang Gui walked to the study and said
"Wang Fu, go see what's going on?"
Before Wang Fu came back, he heard someone shouting in the courtyard
Wang Weifang stepped forward to receive the order.
The father and son glanced at each other, and saw doubts in each other's eyes, I don't know which one the emperor is playing.
