Chapter 64: Jealousy
The strange look was fleeting.
Then Shi Wei asked Xu Xian's pulse, tongue color, and other symptoms.
Pan You didn't think much about it at first, but just told the truth in passing, but when he saw Shi Wei's gradually confident expression, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"I almost forgot, Yuanzhi, you have excellent medical skills, don't you already know how to cure Lord Xu's illness?" Pan You looked a little excited.
Shi Wei didn't answer, and said lightly: "I don't say if Wansheng can cure his illness, but there is one thing that Wansheng is very curious about, and I don't know whether to ask or not." β
Pan You was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "There are no outsiders here, you don't know what's going on, but it's okay to say it." β
"That's the case, when I was just now, I noticed that Lord Xu seemed to be deliberately targeting Lord Pan, and since this is the case, why is your Lord still so worried about his safety?"
Shi Wei was honest with him about his confusion.
Pan You smiled wryly, shook his head and sighed: "The old man attaches great importance to state affairs, and this is all a last resort." β
So that Pan You dragged Shi Wei to a remote place, and saw that there were no ears and eyes in all directions, so he expressed his bitterness.
It turned out that Pan You felt that the Southern Tang Dynasty was weakened and the Northern Song Dynasty threatened to flourish, so in order to avoid the fate of the overthrow of the country, he and several ministers formulated a set of reform methods, trying to improve the national strength of the Southern Tang Dynasty.
The root of Pan You's change is to imitate the ancient Zhou Dynasty and implement the "well field system".
It's just that as soon as the news of this change of law was released, the government and the opposition continued to disagree, and the most fierce opposition was the old ministers in the period of the first emperor.
Although Emperor Li Yu also had the heart to change the law, he did not dare to implement it because of the heavy opposition of the court and the central government.
Pan You and other reformist ministers were mostly from the group of literati in Chongwenguan when Li Yu was the crown prince, although they were quite trusted by Li Yu, their influence in the court was still insufficient.
However, Xu Xian is different, he has been used heavily since the time of the first emperor, and he is extremely influential among the old ministers, and Xu Xian has always maintained a neutral attitude towards the change of law.
Therefore, Pan Youcai wanted to use Xu Xian's prestige to persuade those opposition ministers to support his change of law.
Throughout the ages, there have been very few people who dare to dispel public opinion and implement law changes, and most of those who carry out reforms have not ended well, and Wang Anshi is one of them.
Although Pan You's courage really made Shi Wei admire, when he heard what the "Jingtian system" was, he felt a little naΓ―ve.
What kind of well field system are you engaged in, to put it bluntly, don't you just divide the land according to the head and engage in egalitarianism?
The old ministers of the people, serving the emperors of the two dynasties, for so many years, who has not fished a thousand hectares of good land, you change the law, engage in the well field system, isn't it just to cut the meat of people's mouths, it is strange if you don't oppose you.
These thoughts in his heart naturally can't be said to Pan You, since Pan You has spoken, he can't help but help with this favor.
It's just that when he thinks of Xu Changqing's house, Shi Wei has fire in his heart, and now if he goes to save his father again, Shi Zhi can't do such a stupid thing of repaying grievances with virtue.
After pondering for a moment, Shi Wei vaguely had an idea.
So he smiled faintly and said: "Since Master Pan has orders, how can Wansheng not obey, but before Wansheng rescues, I still want to say a few words to that Xu Gongzi, I don't know if Master Pan can tell me on his behalf." β
When Pan You heard that Shi Wei was willing to make a move, he immediately showed joy on his face, and when he returned to the side hall.
After a while, Xu Changqing, who had a gloomy face, came out sullenly.
He was very reluctant to go outside the door, and said coldly: "I heard Master Pan say that you have something to say to me, hurry up, this son has no time to waste his lips and tongues with you." β
Shi Wei glanced at him and asked, "Brother Xu, I want to ask, did you push me from behind?" β
A hint of surprise flashed in Xu Changqing's eyes, as if he didn't expect that Shi Wei would poke this layer of window paper in front of him.
"Hmph, what if it's me." Xu Changqing saw that there was no one around, so he admitted frankly and arrogantly.
Shi Wei exhaled lightly, pretending to be puzzled: "Shi and Brother Xu have no grudges or hatreds, I really don't understand, Brother Xu, why do you want to frame me like this." β
Xu Changqing snorted coldly, looked at him contemptuously and said: "With my identity, I originally disdained the general calculation of a lowly person like you, but you didn't know what to do, and repeatedly challenged my bottom line of patience, forcing me to teach you a lesson." β
This Xu Gongzi kept calling him a "despicable man", completely ignoring Shi Wei's face, and he had already torn his face.
At this time, Shi Wei's expression calmed down, and he asked with interest: "This is strange, I only have a few relationships with Brother Xu, and I really don't know how I provoked you again." β
"Boy, don't play stupid." Xu Changqing glared at him fiercely, "Zi Su is my Xu Changqing's future wife, this is something that everyone in the capital knows and hears, but your kid first treated her lightly, and then deliberately damaged my face in front of her, obviously I just want to get involved with her, if this revenge is not avenged, how can I Xu Changqing have face!" β
The one surnamed Xu finally revealed his motives.
The two things he was referring to, one was that when he was in Pan's Mansion, Shi Wei dressed Pan Shisu, and the other was that at that literary meeting, Shi Wei shocked the audience with a song "Yulin Bell".
Shi Wei sneered: "When it comes to the matter of Pan Mansion, I have already explained that it was a misunderstanding, and as for that meeting, it was you Brother Xu who forcibly invited me to go." Just because of this chasing after the wind and catching shadows, Brother Xu, you will be jealous and use such shameless means, Brother Xu, are you not afraid of ruining Lord Xu's style? β
Hearing Shi Wei's cynicism, Xu Changqing suddenly became angry.
"Stinky boy, don't think that you can write a few poems, and with the help of Master Pan, you can ascend to the sky in one step, unscrupulous. I warn you, get out of the capital as soon as possible, go back to the countryside and be your little langzhong, otherwise, I, Xu Changqing, have the means to kill you. β
This annoyed and angry official son not only pierced the window paper, but also demolished the door, and now it is Chi Guoguo's threat to Shi Wei.
What Shi Wei was waiting for was his impatience and decay.
At that moment, he didn't think it was strange, but smiled and said calmly: "Brother Xu has such a big breath, Shi is really afraid." However, I heard just now that Lord Ling Zun Xu is now critically ill, and several imperial doctors have nothing to do. Shi thought, if something happens to Ling Zun, can Brother Xu still be so arrogant? β
This sentence sneered at each other, straight to the point, like pouring cold water on Xu Changqing, which made his arrogant expression change suddenly.
"Boy, don't curse my father, be careful of my ......"
When Xu Changqing was about to speak viciously to each other again, a eunuch hurriedly ran over from the side hall and shouted at Xu Changqing with a panicked expression: "Master Xu, Ling Zun is afraid that it will not work, you can go and take a look." β
"What?"
Xu Changqing was taken aback, all his arrogance turned into horror in an instant, and he immediately had no intention of talking to Shi Wei again, and he was busy running to the side hall to visit his dying father.
Just as Xu Changqing turned around and was about to leave, Shi Wei behind him said painlessly: "Lord Xu's disease is not an incurable disease, and the imperial doctors are incurable, it's really strange......
His words seemed to be just a low sigh of self-talk, but the size of his voice was just right, so that Xu Changqing, who was a few steps away, could hear it.
Xu Changqing, who was in a panic, suddenly heard these words, and his body shook violently.
He didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly turned around and came back, shouting at Shi Wei: "Boy, what did you just say? β
Shi Wei pretended to be taken aback by him, and said disapprerovingly: "It's nothing, I'm just talking to myself." β
"Nonsense, I obviously heard you talk about my father's illness, what did you say." Xu Changqing asked anxiously.
Shi Wei pretended to be helpless and said: "I'm just strange, Lord Xu's illness is very simple, and those imperial doctors don't know how to treat it, so they said to themselves, what, isn't it okay." β
Hearing this, Xu Changqing's expression immediately changed.
