"A concubine, as for it? You have to think clearly, in front of the mourning family here, if you ask for one point, you will lose one point, you ask for this matter this time, and if you want to ask for other things in the future, if you don't have enough feelings, then you can't ask for it. ”

Although the Queen Mother didn't quite understand what the old lady of the Weihou Mansion thought, this did not prevent her from wanting to agree to this matter.

The emperor has been having a headache for these old nobles, and it would be good if the Weihou Mansion could bury a few more eyeliners.

And as she said, there is only so much affection, and if you ask for some, you will have less.

Next time, it won't be so easy to beg her.

"The courtiers think very clearly, the queen mother, you don't need to persuade the courtiers. Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and courtiers can only do their best to obey the destiny of heaven. ”

"Okay, this matter, the mourning family will promise you."

The Queen Mother suddenly mentioned another matter, she said that she had heard a lot of news from the Weihou Mansion recently, saying that the head of Wei was doing a good job in the household department, and suddenly asked for long-term personal leave.

"It just so happens that you are here, so you can explain to the mourning family well, Wei is in charge of an official of the household department, and he is not good at doing the affairs of the household department, why did he suddenly study the law of the ministry? Is his hand a little too wide? ”

Yang Xiangwei's expression immediately became serious: "Queen Mother, can the courtiers refute your words?" ”

The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows: "Oh? Do you want to refute the words of the mourners? After all, if it is reasonable, the mourning family will forgive you for your innocence. But if your reasons can't convince the mourners, then someone has to be punished. ”

As for whether the punishment will be for the old lady of the Hou Mansion or the head of the guard, it will be the emperor's business.

"The Queen Mother, may I ask, what did the laws of the dynasty do?"

"What do you say you're doing for?" The Queen Mother wisely did not answer her directly, but threw the question back.

"The courtiers believe that the laws of the court are formulated for people to abide by, and only when everyone abides by the laws of the court, from top to bottom, up and down, can the laws of the court be smooth and invisible, and achieve the purpose of long-term peace and stability and the happiness of the people."

Speaking of this, Yang Xiangwei straightened her back, and the expression on her face became more serious: "Although the second son of the courtier is only a six-grade official of the household department, he is the official of the imperial court, and for the common people, he is the 'Shang', but his 'Shang' is not even clear about the laws of the imperial court, how can he do things according to the law?" If he can't do this, how can the people below him go up and down? If everyone learns from him like this, and does not understand the law, and all the people of the world do not understand the law, and no one understands the law, how many people will obey the law? At that time, everyone has broken the law, so what is the use of the law made by the imperial court? ”

As soon as the Queen Mother heard this, the expression on her face became serious: "The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, you know?" ”

"The queen mother, the courtiers have never been in politics, and the courtiers will not do this. But anyone who sees a courtier, I'm afraid there are few people who don't know that the courtiers were born in Zhuangzi, and they don't even know a few big characters, so what kind of ability does the courtiers have to do politics? All the courtiers are doing now is educating their sons. Judging from the short-sighted eyes of the courtiers, the second son of the courtiers couldn't even pass the Jinshi exam, which was really a disappointment to the emperor. It is not easy to be under the shadow of the ancestors, and he has been named an official, and he can do things for the emperor, what an honor. The courtiers must not let their sons discredit the emperor, so all the courtiers can do is to make him an upright person who will not break the law no matter what happens! ”

The last sentence was sonorous and powerful, hitting the heart of the Queen Mother.

She didn't expect that the answer to everything the other party did was this.

Come to think of it, the emperor probably didn't expect it.

"What you said, the mourning family knows, and the mourning family will tell the emperor truthfully."

Yang Xiangwei bowed to the Queen Mother: "The courtiers thanked the Queen Mother." ”

"What are the mourning families doing now, the mourning family is just a word."

But if there was no message from the Queen Mother, the courtier's words would not have had a chance to be spoken. Even if it is said, I don't know whose mouth it will pass before it reaches the emperor's ears, and as for whether the words passed on are not what the courtiers originally said, no one knows. The courtiers are very honored to be able to say these words in front of the Queen Mother, convey the true meaning of the courtiers to the emperor, please rest assured that the courtiers will definitely teach the sons of the courtiers to be an upright person, and will definitely not drag the emperor back and discredit the emperor. ”

……

Coming out of the palace, Yang Xiangwei felt that her legs were about to be wasted.

Although, all the kowtows and thanks, she did it willingly.

But she really wanted to say - she was getting older, and she was really tired of stumbling around.

I don't know if there will be a chance to dress as a higher person in the future, Ma Dan, and let her enjoy the taste of being bowed down again.

In the evening of the same day, the Weihou Mansion suddenly received a letter and reward from the emperor.

Wei Minwen held the freshly baked six big words of "upright and upright", and looked confused - what happened?

Why did the emperor suddenly give him these six words? Could it be that he asked for too much leave, and the emperor began to dislike him?

"Ahem!" Yang Xiangwei coughed lightly, "Okay, the emperor has said so, you two brothers have listened to me, and you will be an upright person for me in the future, if anyone dares to do something that steals chickens and dogs and violates the law, don't let me catch it, but if I am caught, I will be sent directly to the yamen." ”

"Mother...... It's none of my business, is it? Wei Minsen was startled and asked reflexively.

"Why is it none of your business? You're not my son? Didn't the emperor say it all? These words are given to my son. ”

Wei Minsen pointed to his nose and asked, "So this matter, and my share?" Wait, second brother, you can't take the emperor's reward alone, and my share. ”

Wei Minwen glared at him fiercely: "In addition to those gold, silver and jewelry, what else do you know?" ”

"What else do I need to know? I don't know what you have done, what does the emperor want to punish you for me? ”

Wei Minwen gritted his teeth, and his head was bright now: "When did the emperor say that I stole chickens and dogs and wanted to punish me?" And if you want to punish me, will you reward me with gold and silver treasures? ”

"You're not alone in these gold, silver and jewelry."

Wei Minwen almost didn't get angry: "Can you get to the point?" ”

Wei Minsen shook his hand indifferently: "Okay, okay, I know, isn't it just that you didn't do anything to steal chickens and dogs, and you weren't punished by the emperor?" I look like a fool, I'm not really stupid, I'm just joking with you. Don't forget my share. ”

Wei Minwen almost vomited blood. So no matter what the point is, when it comes to the mouth of the eldest brother, it is still the emperor's reward that is more important.

He didn't know that his eldest brother was slamming the door before, but recently he partnered with his brother to do those things, and he realized how poor the eldest brother usually is, so he can pick the door like this.

Even if the reward money is given to the maid and the slave, the eldest brother will calculate it in advance, and he will give what should be given, and he will definitely not give more money if he shouldn't give it.

For Wei Minwen, who has never been used to being big, what is the difference between this and taking back what was sent? It's a shame.

However, the mother also praised the eldest brother for being "thrifty" and running the family in a good way.

Poof-

Haematemesis.

What does it matter if you have a good house, and even withhold the reward of maids and slaves?
