"People's hearts are not enough, how many can stop at the abyss, be content and happy?"

Wei Ba looked at Xiahou Hui, then at Peng Xiaoyu, picked up the book again, and there was a little more displeasure in his voice: "But, what does this have to do with us?" ”

Xiahou Hui was a little unbearable by Wei Ba, lowered his head, Peng Xiaoyu walked to Wei Ba's side, knelt down, and gently put his hand on Wei Ba's arm: "Husband, in terms of public opinion, if Li Yan really becomes a relative, it will not only be bad for the prime minister, but also good for you." Isn't the reason why you were able to move between the prime minister and Li Yan with your weakest strength was because they couldn't hold each other? If Li Yan really overpowered the prime minister, how could he tolerate you becoming his opponent? The Wei family is already a force to be reckoned with in the army, will Li Yan let you out of his control? ”

Wei Ba glanced at Peng Xiaoyu disappreciatively: "What about selfishness?" ”

Peng Xiaoyu smiled, and a pair of Danfeng eyes were bent into crescents, revealing a hint of playfulness. "In terms of selfishness, once Li Yan's daughter enters the palace, Empress Zhang will inevitably be threatened. Empress Zhang and Sister Rong are cousins, the Zhang family and the Guan family have always been friends, the leader of the Yuan Cong system, if the Zhang family is suppressed by Li Yan, or forced to fall to Li Yan, how will the sister deal with herself in the future? ”

Wei Ba laughed, stretched out his hand and gently twisted Peng Xiaoyu's nose: "What I said earlier is all nonsense, this sentence is the key, right?" ”

Peng Xiaoyu nodded, her face was blushing, and even the blue spot was much lighter. Wei Ba turned around and hooked his finger at Xiahou Hui. Xiahou Hui sat beside him obediently, and his voice was like a gnat: "Husband." I had no choice but to come to my husband. ”

Wei Ba spread his arms, hugged one with one hand, and shook his head. "You are all smart people, and I won't say those polite words. The Zhang family has always followed the path of prime ministers and helped me, but they have never really regarded my Wei family as friends. So even if Li Yan wants to take the Zhang family, he will definitely not deal with me, but against the prime minister. Now the prime minister has not reacted. I jumped out first. What is this? ”

He looked at Xiahou Hui and then at Peng Xiaoyu: "Aren't the forbearance skills I did earlier in vain?" Is the Zhang family worth the price I have to pay? ”

Xiahou Hui's face was a little pale, and even Peng Xiaoyu was a little embarrassed.

"Xiaoyu, I'll leave the confidential matter to you. It's because you're calm. Wei Ba rubbed Peng Xiaoyu's shoulder. The smile on his face gradually dissipated: "At the same time, it is also because your Peng family has no relatives and friends in the Han Dynasty." There are few people and things to be afraid of, and you can make calm judgments. But your performance today was a bit out of order, and I don't want to see next time. ”

Peng Xiaoyu lowered her head. Embarrassed.

When Xiahou Hui saw it, he hurriedly explained: "Husband, I asked Xiaoyu to intercede, and it has nothing to do with her. ”

"You begged, but she agreed." Wei Ba had a cold face and said very sternly: "You are the latest to enter my Wei family's door, but you know me first. How I treat you, you should know in your heart, what are you worried about? ”

"Whoa." Peng Xiaoyu fell to the ground and touched her head to the table. "Husband, the concubine knows that she is wrong."

"Hmm." Wei Ba softened his face and said to Xiahou Hui: "Rong, don't worry about this matter, I know it in my heart." In a few days, I will convene the families of the counties to open accounts and discuss the matter of reducing and exempting the customs and taxes, and you should prepare for it, and do not show your cowardice at that time. ”

"Whoa." Xiahou Hui answered, and went out with low eyebrows. Before going out, he glanced at Peng Xiaoyu guiltily, and then took the door with him. Listening to the news outside the door of Xiahou Hui's footsteps, Wei Ba coughed: "Okay, don't pretend, get up." ”

Peng Xiaoyu straightened up, her face red and white. She smiled embarrassedly: "Husband, the concubine is not pretending, and the concubine is really wrong." ”

"If you know your mistakes, you have to change them. In this family, no one can bully you except me, and you don't need to look at anyone's eyes, just do your own thing. Wei Ba paused, and then said earnestly: "Otherwise, I really have to consider changing someone, so as not to embarrass you." ”

Peng Xiaoyu nodded: "Thank you Fujun for relieving the concubine." My sister came to ask for a concubine, but the concubine really didn't know how to excuse herself. ”

Wei Ba didn't blame Peng Xiaoyu anymore. He knew that Peng Xiaoyu was difficult, he had just stepped into this house, whether it was Guan Feng or Xiahou Hui, she could not afford to provoke her, Xiahou Hui came to beg her personally, she couldn't help but give some face, otherwise she would not be able to gain a foothold in this family in the future. Iron-faced selflessness sounds noble, but it is difficult to do, and it is difficult for men, let alone women who get along day and night. How to refuse is a science, and Peng Xiaoyu can't solve it by himself, so it is also a safer way to use him to unblock the encirclement. Seeing Peng Xiaoyu's crescent-shaped danfeng eyes, Wei Ba knew that she had been careful again, and acted in a play along the river, making Xiahou Hui retreat.

Peng Xiaoyu was like a docile kitten, curled up beside Wei Ba. Wei Ba groaned: "I will consider the affairs of the Zhang family." If Li Yanzhen mastered the emperor, it would definitely be unfavorable to me. But now the time has not come, let's see how the prime minister dismantles the tricks, which is the most important thing. Besides, if you make a move now, the Zhang family won't really appreciate me, and when they are desperate, we will help again, and they will know how to cherish. Just like Ma Yan, I have to wait until the Prime Minister's order comes down before I am willing to save him? Because the heat is not enough, it will only be a waste of opportunity to strike early. ”

Peng Xiaoyu responded, rolled his eyes, and said, "However, what if the prime minister retreats again to maintain the overall situation, and even pushes you to the front?" ”

Wei Ba smiled silently: "First of all, the prime minister will not be so polite, and honestly hand over the country to Li Yan to toss." Secondly, if he really wants to be so polite, then I will not be polite, I will take advantage of the situation. Of course, if you want to sit firmly in that position, you need to have strength. As long as there is strength, any conspiracy is in vain. So let's not care about other things now, and concentrate on laying a solid foundation and strengthening our own strength, which is the most important thing. ”

Peng Xiaoyu laughed: "However, you still have to help Zilie, you can't let him be so wronged anymore, otherwise, what can you do if your husband is sluggish in the future?" ”

Wei Ba glanced at Peng Xiaoyu: "What are you talking about?" ”

Peng Xiaoyu giggled and said, "Husband, don't think that everyone else is stupid, the two sisters are smart people." ”

"You're not stupid, you know how to take advantage of the opportunity to be good." Wei Ba smiled and pinched Peng Xiaoyu's face: "Remember, if you want to gain a foothold in our family, it's not enough to please my aunt and younger siblings, but also to fight for your own belly, hurry up and give birth to a child with a child, and my father and mother will really have you in their eyes." ”

"The concubine must work hard." Peng Xiaoyu stuck out her tongue and blushed: "The husband also has to spoil the concubine a lot." ”

"Of course." Wei Ba sneered: "Then what are you waiting for? Can't we talk about these things that bad people are interested in later? ”

……

In order to accumulate strength as quickly as possible, Wei Ba began to implement a series of economic reforms, summoning his generals to Xu Wen for a meeting. After receiving the order, the generals rushed to Xu Wen from the station, but the road was far away, some came a little earlier, some came a little later, and those who came early rushed to contact Wei Ba before the formal meeting, and at the same time seized the time to enjoy the food and scenery of Jiaozhou.

Xu Wen was originally a place where commercial ports were concentrated, and Wei Ba wanted to ship in this vicinity, which added a little popularity to Xu Wen, and now everyone came with dozens or hundreds of personal guards, and there were thousands more people around Xu Wen at once, which was even more lively.

A few days later, Zhao Tong and Sun Luban also arrived. As soon as they met, Zhao Tong and Wei Ba were talking, and Sun Luban hurried to find Guan Feng and Xiahou Hui. As soon as he saw Guan Feng's belly, Sun Luban stretched out his hand to touch Guan Feng's belly and said with a smile: "Sister, this is about to give birth, right?" ”

Guan Feng's face was a little swollen, but she was in good spirits, she patted Sun Luban's hand, and scolded with a smile: "Don't touch it, I don't want my child to be as tiger as you." ”

"Hehe, I just don't touch it, he is sure of the tiger, and he doesn't look at who his parents are." Sun Luban couldn't breathe with laughter: "I heard that little Wei Zheng in your family will vomit saliva." ”

"Where did you hear the rumors?" Xiahou Hui walked over and handed Sun Luban a durian: "Plug your stinky mouth." ”

Sun Luban fainted suddenly, hurriedly threw the durian out, and retched while holding his chest.

Everybody daxiao.

After making trouble for a while, Sun Luban pulled Guan Feng's arm and said embarrassedly: "Sister, I'm here to ask you for help." ”

"The Zhao family's business or the Sun family's business?" Guan Feng said vigilantly: "The affairs of the Zhao family, then it is easy to say, the affairs of the Sun family are not to be discussed." She glanced at Xiahou Hui: "If you don't believe it, you can ask Yuanrong, she just hit a wall a few days ago, and she also affected Xiaoyu." ”

Sun Luban opened his mouth and stammered, holding back his stomach for words, and he didn't know what to say. After a while, she stammered, "But I have brought a relative to your family." ”

"Relatives?" Guan Feng laughed: "If there are any relatives in our family that you want to bring over, as long as he shows his name, which post station dares not to provide convenience." ”

"It's ...... Relatives you haven't met. Sun Luban thought for a while, and then said: "It's a relative of the Zhennan general Amu's side." ”

Guan Feng and Xiahou Hui glanced at each other, both a little inexplicable. If you want to talk about the relatives of Wei Ba's mother and Deng's side, they really don't know. However, is there anyone else in the Deng family?

On the beach, Wei Ba looked at a wooden man in front of him who was nearly forty years old and had a dark face like an old peasant, and his face was shocked: "You...... Is it from the Nanyang Deng clan? ”

The man arched his hand in embarrassment and stammered, "General Ming...... Mingjian, my ...... It is indeed a new ...... in Nanyang Xinye Tang, with Lingtang and ...... and former generals are ...... Same as the same sect. ”…… (To be continued......)
