Chapter 254: Sober
"Don't worry, this king's words haven't been finished yet." Lu Chengxiu smiled slightly, his tone was slow, and he was really not in a hurry at all, "Just half a month ago, Helian Qi, the prince of the Gui clan, led his troops to capture the Missing Moon Pool, and Gu Jiangyuan was seriously injured. Also a few days ago, this king and Ning Guogong gathered 50,000 soldiers and horses to Dingzhou City, and decided to behead Lu and return to the hall under the city gate! ”
Wei Yuchuan fried the tea in his hand, and did not hand it to Prime Minister Wei, but got up and handed it to Lu Chengxiu.
The girl's voice was gentle, as if she had a pool of spring water warm into the sky: "Dare to ask Your Highness, is the gate of Dingzhou broken?" ”
Just this sentence hit Lu Chengxiu.
Yuan Changxin led the troops to Dingzhou for a few days, but he didn't even break through the city gate of Dingzhou, which almost became the reason why Lu Chengxiu was anxious at this time.
Seeing that Lu Chengxiu's face was a little darker, Wei Yuchuan had a shallow smile on his face.
She didn't understand the affairs of the court, she only cared about the safety of Gu Jin and Lu Guitang, since she got the answer, she didn't say more, and she didn't avoid suspicion, she just turned around and sat in front of the tandoor to choose the tea bait.
Lu Chengxiu held the cup of hot tea in his hand, which added to his irritability.
He slammed the teacup on the stone table to the side, losing his patience.
"This king didn't come today to see how Xiangye and Miss Wei handled things calmly."
Prime Minister Wei Cheng groaned, stretched out his hand and stroked his beard before asking him again: "Does the prince want to ask if there is any way to break the power of King Xian and Gu Er?" Your Highness thinks that now, my Wei family will still give advice to Your Highness? ”
Lu Chengxiu got up slightly, leaned closer to Wei Cheng, and smiled deeply: "What is the situation now, Xiangye should be clear in his heart, the one who knows the times is Junjie, Xiangye alone does not care about his life, and he will also involve Miss Wei and Mrs. Wei?" ”
Today, Lu Chengxiu and Ning Guogong hold the power of the government, but they dare not openly eradicate dissidents, but one day Lu Chengxiu will not keep these courtiers with different intentions.
But here's the problem...... Someday, what day?
Sure enough, Prime Minister Wei didn't answer this.
He stared at Lu Chengxiu for a while, and a faint smile appeared on his face, and he said: "King Shu is so confident, the old man admires it very much, the old man has gone through three dynasties, and he has personally seen the former prince of the previous dynasty in charge of the seal of the country, but he was deposed before the enthronement day; I have also seen Crown Prince Qin in charge of the government for ten years, but he is under the iron horse of the Gui clan. Now that His Royal Highness King Shu is not in power, even the national seal in his hand must listen to the words of Ning Guogong one by one, the war in Shuobei has not stopped, Dingzhou has hidden the dragon and crouching tiger, and half of the people in the court are under house arrest, His Royal Highness has already anticipated the future? ”
The crown prince of the first dynasty was Lu Chengxiu's uncle, and the crown prince of Qin was Lu Chengxiu's uncle.
The piles and piles in Prime Minister Wei Cheng's mouth all poked at Lu Chengxiu's sore spots, which made him more uncomfortable than mentioning that Yuan Changxin could not break the gate of Dingzhou.
Lu Chengxiu has always been steady, but today he has darkened his face several times in a row, and I don't know if these things really forced people to be anxious, or since he beat him to force the palace, he has become anxious for quick success.
"No matter what Xiang Ye has seen and heard in the past, he should know today that the person who holds the power of the court is this king, and the person who is uncertain about his life and death in Dingzhou is Lu Guitang." At this point, he suddenly paused, turned his gaze to Wei Yuchuan on the side, and changed the conversation, "But there is one thing that this king really doesn't understand, I have a marriage contract with Miss Wei, if Xiangye stood with me early, why would I end up where I am today?" ”
He mentioned Wei Yuchuan in his words, and Prime Minister Wei subconsciously glanced to the side, he knew that his daughter had been moved by Lu Chengxiu, and he was worried that Lu Chengxiu's words would make Wei Yuchuan unhappy. 1800 Literature
But seeing the girl Shi Ran saluting, as if carrying the spring breeze to cross the peach blossoms, "Since the prince has the county lord of Ningguo by his side, please don't mention the previous unwritten agreement, which adds to people's laughter for no reason, and the courtiers don't want to let this formless marriage be involved in the current situation." ”
Her expression is soft as water, not as cold as Gu Shen, but she has a clear body and is out of the dust.
There is no shortage of women in the world who are from such noble backgrounds, with the orders of their parents, and the words of the matchmaker will be stable with their husbands for a lifetime, and they will raise their eyebrows. What is lacking is such a woman who can afford and put it down, dare to love and hate, and still have a clear understanding when the situation is turbulent.
At this moment, Lu Chengxiu was thinking that if there was no marriage contract promised to the Prime Minister's Mansion by Jinsheng, Wei Yuchuan might have been emotional about himself that day.
How...... The past is like a cloud of smoke.
He chuckled and got up, "I don't know what's wrong with the world, the high-headed horses can't be carried, and the eaves and pavilions are willing to climb and fold." ”
I just don't know if he is talking about Lu Guitang and Gu Jin, or Prime Minister Wei Cheng and Wei Yuchuan.
Since then, this conversation has been unhappily dispersed, and Prime Minister Wei's father and daughter did not send Lu Chengxiu, but let him gradually go away.
The cup of tea on the stone table had not moved a sip from beginning to end, and had already cooled.
Prime Minister Wei turned around and looked at Wei Yuchuan and sighed, "Yuchuan, do you blame your father?" ”
Wei Yuchuan smiled gently, "Why are you resentful?" ”
"If your father is on the side of King Shu in the partisan dispute, you may be able to take the back seat."
The girl got up, the night was already thick, but her eyes were clear and snowy, drunk and striving for spring.
"It's me who is wrong, father, I have been wrong about him from the beginning, he dared to force the palace to rebel, dared to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and dared to abandon the people of Dingzhou and Shuobei, such a person, I disdain."
Fang had already seen Wei Yuchuan's sobriety, but when he really heard her say this, Prime Minister Wei was still stunned.
She is a boudoir woman, she has never known about political affairs, but today she can see that Lu Chengxiu is a person from state affairs, but she has extraordinary insights.
Wei Yuchuan slowly stretched out his hand, took the tea cup that had cooled on the stone table, and gently knocked it, and all the tea was sprinkled on the ground, and the bowl was empty.
"If he really has the heart to marry me, he will not be helped by Ning Guogong, then Jiang Rou doubts whether he has a friendship with him, I don't know, but it is true that he has no friendship with me."
As soon as Wei Yuchuan's hand was loosened, the empty bowl fell to the ground, scattered into broken porcelain, like a broken mirror that is difficult to round, like a chaotic autumn water.
"Father, I am not Erjin, I was born in a family of Jiangmen, with all the people in the world in mind, she can stir up the court, she can turn the clouds and rain, and she can wear armor and protect her heart. And I'm ......" Wei Yuchuan pursed his lips, and his originally slightly sad expression suddenly calmed down.
"I am an idle person, carrying fireworks to live my life, I don't want to be troubled by love, and I don't have the power to stir up the political storm, but I want myself to have a clear conscience, and don't let my unknown mind become my father's trouble."
