Chapter 153: Wei Zheng's apology
Wei Zheng in the service, Xie Yi recognized the best matchmaker.
To marry a beautiful woman like Zheng Liwan, who moves the world, the matchmaker must have weight, and the waiter of the Tang Dynasty is like the prime minister, which is enough.
Furthermore, the person must be willing and capable of being a good matchmaker.
Xie Yi thought that Wei Zheng should be willing to help with this, at least try. After all, Zheng Liwan's misfortunes over the years are also related to him Wei Zheng.
If it weren't for his direct advice at the critical moment and breaking the marriage contract between Zheng and Lu's families, Zheng Liwan might have already entered the palace as a concubine. Why is it embarrassing to marry and waste the years.
Wei Zheng has also expressed apologies and regrets on some occasions, and now he is given a chance to make amends, presumably the loyal Wei Shizhong will be willing to help.
The reason why Wei Zheng is the best person is because he has the ability and possibility to do this.
Although Zheng Liwan is an unmarried daughter and marries freely, after all, there is such a stalk as His Majesty Li Er, either to smooth it down, or to find someone with weight, so that Li Shimin can't say anything.
Wei Zheng was the first person in the Tang Dynasty to speak out, he dared to speak, and after speaking, Li Shimin had to pay attention to it. Using it as a medium, it is easy to break this "deadlock".
Zheng Liwanlan was very heartfelt, and immediately understood the reason.
"San Lang, will the Wei Guild agree?" Zheng Liwan opened her mouth again, her title changed again, and her mind naturally changed.
Xie Yi said with a smile: "It's up to people, if Duke Wei doesn't agree, I will stay at the door of his house and pester him to agree." ”
"Are you trying to play tricks?"
"For your sake, what about playing Rippy?"
Although Zheng Liwan is not young, she rarely has contact with men, let alone such affectionate conversations, so she is easy to be ashamed.
"This matter, Sister Xijun's ......" In this regard, Zheng Liwan seems to have some concerns.
Xie Yi smiled: "You guys are doing well, and now you are sisters." In the future, it will be the same, but the meaning of sister has changed slightly.
As for Xijun's attitude, she has encouraged me to come to your door these days, and it is not until today that the time is ripe that I dare to summon up the courage to come. ”
"Then ......" Zheng Liwan pondered for a moment and said in a low voice: "San Lang, I have something to explain first." ”
"What's the matter? Even so. ”
"Liwan is willing to be a housewife, but she can't live in the main room."
"Why?" Xie Yi couldn't help but be a little stunned, this is also abnormal? A woman who marries is unwilling to be the wife of the main family?
Zheng Liwan said in a low voice: "After all, Liwan had a marriage contract with the Lu family, and Lu Shuang died early. If you are a widow; Coupled with the events of the past year, she is no longer the daughter of the whole festival, how can she be the main room and shame the lintel of the Xie family? ”
"Liwan, you think too much, you don't have to care about these vain things." Xie Yi comforted: "You know the situation of Xijun, I can't marry her in the open light, I am quite regretful; If I wronged you like this again. How can I bear it? ”
"Don't be aggrieved!" Zheng Liwan shook her head and said: "San Lang doesn't care, but Liwan doesn't want someone to criticize Xie's lintel because of Liwan in the future; Besides, Sister Xijun has been dependent on you for many years, and her age is also above me. How can Liwan leap to the top? ”
Xie Yi shook his head and said, "Xijun won't care about this, and you don't have to wronged yourself." ”
"Don't be aggrieved, there are other reasons for Liwan to think about it like this......"
"What is the reason?"
"This ...... Let's not talk about it yet. Zheng Liwan said softly: "Wasted a few years. As long as she can get married, Liwan doesn't care about her reputation. As long as San Lang is affectionate, he will cherish and love. Liwan was satisfied. ”
"The talented girl really thinks differently." Xie Yi smiled: "It's just that you're not worried that I will marry a lady in the main room and go home in the future, which will be difficult for you?" ”
Zheng Liwan smiled and said: "With San Lang's vision and temperament, how can a barbaric daughter enter the Xie family?" ”
"Not necessarily, in case I look away and don't care...... Don't regret it! ”
"What is there to regret?" Zheng Liwan smiled and said: "With Liwan's ability and means, even if she is the lady of the main room, she may not be my opponent......"
Xie Yi smiled: "Okay! Before I entered the door, I wanted to stir up the peace of my house, and I had to consider whether to marry ......."
"If I don't marry, I may not be willing to marry......"
In the garden, the sound of joyful jokes sounded, and Abi heard it from afar, and the corners of her mouth were also filled with sweet smiles......
……
Wei Zheng is a strange existence among the ministers of Zhenguan.
has knowledge and talent, so he was elected to the East Palace to wash the horse during the Wude period, and was a subordinate official of the hidden prince Li Jiancheng.
If nothing else, when Li Jiancheng ascends the throne as emperor, he will be a close confidant of the new monarch, and he will definitely be relied on and have a great future.
It's a pity that it is unfortunate that the Xuanwumen Incident happened, and Li Jiancheng died.
It stands to reason that these former ministers of the East Palace will definitely die, especially Wei Zheng once suggested that Li Jiancheng should clean up Li Shimin, the then king of Qin, as soon as possible to avoid future troubles.
It's a pity that Li Jiancheng hesitated, so that Li Shimin was given an opportunity.
It stands to reason that Li Shimin, who is on the top, will inevitably hold a grudge and will never let Wei Zhengcai go, but Li Shimin didn't do it. Instead, he released generously and reused Wei Zheng, Wei Ting, and Wang Jue, the old people of the East Palace.
I have to say that Li Shimin's move is very smart and politically clever.
First of all, he appears to be generous and broad-minded; At the same time, it also appeased the people involved in the old East Palace, after all, the involvement was widespread, and it was impossible to kill all of them, which helped to stabilize the situation.
Win a good name, but also reap practical benefits, not a loss at all.
Wei Zheng, a person whose life has had two twists and turns, miraculously returned to the original road, rising to the top, and his reputation and future are even more than before.
first went from the counselor to the scholar Zuocheng, and then to the secretary and supervisor, and finally became the courtier, the official to the prime minister.
Wei Zheng's position on himself is a minister, and it is his consistent practice to give direct advice even at the expense of shame.
There have been a lot of slights over the years, and there are countless examples of Li Shimin's discomfort, and even Long Yan was furious and wanted to kill him Wei Xuancheng.
Fortunately, there was a virtuous eldest grandson queen in the palace, who wore court clothes to comfort the king, and as a result, she achieved the reputation of a virtuous queen and a minister.
The reason why Wei Zheng dared to admonish directly, on the one hand, was his temperament, and on the other hand, he was convinced and responsible, so he was blunt when he should have said.
This kind of untactful way is by no means a wise move in the court, but Wei Zheng has a special resume, so it succeeded, and it became a good story.
In the final analysis, he also took advantage of the words "people's words are terrible".
Li Shimin has always advertised himself that he wants to be a monarch who is good at accepting advice, so he has to listen to the advice of his courtiers.
As for Wei Zheng's offense, although he was angry, he was helpless, and he didn't dare to kill Wei Zheng.
Killing the ministers is easy to be criticized, not to mention that he is still the old minister of the East Palace, as long as he Li Shimin dares to make a move, someone must assert that the emperor can't let go of the old hatred.
Therefore, Li Shimin could only be glared at again and again by Wei Zhengqi's blowing beard; The originally sensitive identity became Wei Zheng's talisman to save his life.
However, Wei Zheng basically has a clear conscience, and his admonitions over the years are basically reasonable, and it is what a good minister should do.
But there are also one or two things, every time he recalls, Wei Zheng will have some apologies and regrets in his heart.
For example, in the sixth year of Zhenguan, he achieved the advice of the Son of Heaven, and he was not good at beauty, but he missed a woman's life......
