Chapter 298: Aftermath
Chapter 377: Old Grudges
No one wants to mention those things in the past easily, especially their Xie family.
In those years, Xie Ji was walking on thin ice, and their brothers arrived in Jiankang City one after another, in fact, it was only after many years that they understood that at that time, the first emperor was killed, and if one was not good, they could be punished, and the first emperor had a thorn in his heart, no matter how well they did, they could always find the wrong place, but the first emperor had other plans, so he didn't move their brothers.
The dignified Chen Jun Xie family, how could he have such a day?
Now that I think about it, everything is still like a dream.
It was at that time that Zheng Duzhi ...... It's not right, when Zheng Duzhi came up with that thing, His Majesty had been the crown prince for several years, and the court was gradually stabilizing, although the first emperor was still angry with the Xie family, but it was not as powerful as before, probably for His Majesty's sake, and he really didn't want to hurt the relationship between father and son.
In fact, Zheng Duzhi can completely hand over that matter to him, although they don't force it, but it is inevitable that there will be knots at times.
When Wen Zizhang asked today, Xie Ji's thoughts were pulled back to when Haoyang was hit by the disaster a few years ago.
"It is true." Xie Ji rubbed his temples and had a headache, "Don't you know anything about it?" ”
Wen Zizhang sighed twice: "I've heard of some, but few people mention those things after that, I'm at home, Aya and my uncles rarely talk about it, when I was young, I chased and asked, I was reprimanded a few times, or they were perfunctory, and slowly stopped asking." ”
It seems that the Wen family doesn't look down on Zheng Duzhi's actions.
In fact, he really didn't say that he didn't want to see Zheng Duzhi, when it came to being a sect son, Zheng Duzhi was much better than his eldest brother, that is, compared with his second brother, even if he was not old, he was also a figure who could support the Zheng family in Xingyang.
Xie Ji just couldn't see the incident back then, this was the right thing and not the right person, and if he carried it, he didn't look down on Zheng Duzhi very much.
"What about Zheng Duzhi, people outside always say that he is a gentleman, and I don't object, he is actually very set about people and things, but he just met his Zheng family...... "Xie Ji shook his head blindly, "It's hard to say, after all, he is the son of the sect, and the entire Zheng family will be his burden in the future, and it is also human nature to return to the relatives of the family." ”
Human?
Wen Zizhang scoffed: "There are so many people in the court, and I don't see everyone like him, blatantly protecting the people in the clan." Besides, how many years have you been here, have you ever seen the Lang Jun of his Taiyuan Wang clan messing around so far? In the final analysis, he can't restrain his clan brother, or he is already ......"
He shut up and touched his nose curtly: "Forget it, it's like I'm arranging people behind my back." ”
Xie Ji knew that he didn't have this heart, but he just said it, but after all, it was ugly, and it didn't look like it, so everyone understood it in their hearts.
Besides, it was his Boling Cui clan, after he gained power at the beginning, didn't he also have unsuccessful sons and nephews messing around? This kind of thing is not unique to the Zheng family, and he is now making such a partial generalization, but in fact, he has involved many innocent people and counted them together.
Xie Ji likes Wen Zizhang's outspoken temperament, what he likes is what he likes, and what he doesn't want to see is what he doesn't want to see, even if the two of them don't have any personal relationship, but when they talk, they don't hide it.
People say that they are deep and shallow, but in fact, how can there be so many words, but they are just a little defensive against others.
Like Wen Zizhang, he has everyone's demeanor and a good mind, of course he knows what to say in front of anyone and what he can't say, these words aimed at Zheng Duzhi are out of the door of his Xie family, and I am afraid that outsiders will not say it easily.
Speaking of which, if you match him with Xun, no matter how you think about it, it seems that Xun has climbed high......
"You don't make it up to him, he did it himself, and he protected his brother back then, if it weren't for the credit of the past, His Majesty wouldn't have indulged him so easily."
At that time, Yuwenshu was only the crown prince, but the first emperor was no longer a big director, so he only lost it to him and called him to supervise the country, in fact, Xie Ji often thought later, if the first emperor was still thunderous at that time, how should Zheng Duzhi deal with himself?
Or perhaps, he just relied on that credit to dare to come wantonly.
However, the past is always in the past, and now it is vacated, and it is just that they talk in private, and they can't really take Zheng Duzhi seriously.
"The letter said that Ling Zhen gave Cui Buwen a roster, but Zheng Tandao's name did not appear on the roster, presumably for Zheng Duzhi's sake......" Xie Jisheng paused slightly, and looked sideways at Wen Zizhang, "Romance, you know your grandfather best, according to Wen Fuzi's meaning, this is to ask me to meet Ling Zhen?" ”
Wen Zizhang is actually a little unsure, not that he can't grasp his grandfather's intentions, but he doesn't know what Zheng Duzhi has to be afraid of, and he can ask Yu Zihui to protect him like this, so he didn't dare to talk nonsense for a while, and he was afraid that he would have the wrong idea.
He bit his lower lip and thought for a long time: "I still don't know what Zheng Duzhi has to be afraid of." ”
So Xie Ji understood.
He was right, he was a brilliant man, and his brain was quite good, and he didn't want to get a word out of his mouth when he shouldn't be talking nonsense.
"Actually, it's nothing, since you want to know, I just want to listen to you"
Xie Ji dragged out his voice, and when Wen Zizhang looked over, he thought in a trance that he had seen it wrong, Xie Ji's eyes flashed with gloom, and his face was gloomy, as if he was extremely displeased, but when he rubbed his eyes and wanted to see clearly, there was nothing left.
The story of the past, Xie Ji told him eloquently, from beginning to end, he was like a bystander, and what he said was just another story.
Only Wen Zizhang became more frightened the more he listened.
To this day, if he still doesn't understand the deep meaning of this, then he is really too confused.
No wonder I always hear people say that the Xie family and the Zheng family are afraid that there is an indissoluble enmity.
It's no wonder that in the past few years, Zheng Duzhi has held an important position in Yushitai, but every time the Xie family holds a banquet, he avoids him, and when he wants to hold a banquet at home, he also avoids the sons of the Xie family.
It wasn't until today that he fully understood.
Wen Zizhang coughed twice: "This person ......"
Xie Ji smiled: "Don't you think it's hard to believe?" He is also a gentleman, and he still calculates in every way, for the sake of his own future. ”
Yes, that's not called judging the situation, it's really just for your own future.
Wen Zizhang is not incomprehensible, in the end, what does the family have to do with the Xie family, if his future is good, the future of the Zheng family will be better.
It's just that these people, who didn't feel sorry for the Xie family in the past, even after the Langya Wang family was convicted and left the capital, they still felt sorry for the Xie family, openly and secretly, who didn't favor the Xie family more?
I'm afraid that there is only this Zheng Duzhi
Chapter 378: Misconduct
Wen Zizhang was up and down in his heart, and he always felt that he was really blocking Xie Ji by coming here today.
He hesitated for a moment, and his tone when he spoke was three points of temptation: "Now that all these years have passed, you don't hold a grudge against him?" ”
Xie Ji seemed to feel strange, listened to his words, rolled his eyelids and looked over: "Why don't I hate him?" ”
Surely there will be retribution.
Aya said before that he is a person who has revenge, no matter how many years have passed, there are some things he has suppressed in his heart, which is a hurdle that he can't get over, just like when he designed to marry his little aunt to the Wang family, and he took the concubine of the Xie family well, and filled the house for people, and he was not a big heir.
In fact, Aya and A-Niang figured it out later, but it was too late, and the situation forced them to act like that.
After a few years, the little aunt was not happy in the Wang family, especially the defeat of the Wang family, and left Jiankang in a gray manner, he Xie was in the limelight for a while, no one can compare, and the family has a deeper grievance, which is a deep grievance, where can it withstand that incident, the Lang master of the Wang family died, and the son of the good sect was removed from the court, and he will never be hired, if you can really treat their Xie girl, then you have really become a saint, and he is from the top and bottom of the Wang family, I am afraid that I can't find half a saint.
Later, his grandmother called him to him for this, scolded and scolded, and Aya also moved when he was angry, but he didn't regret it at all.
A-Niang hugged him and cried, knowing why he hated the little aunt, but he couldn't say it, people said that the eldest sister-in-law was like a mother, and when she came to A-Niang, she couldn't protect the little aunt, and at that time, she was very sad in her heart, and she felt ashamed of her grandfather and grandmother.
It was at that time that Aya pointed at his nose and scolded him for retribution, and he used such thoughts on his own family.
Xie Ji can't forget growing up so big in his life, Aya has a bad temper, and he disciplines their brothers very strictly, and when he scolds them, he doesn't have nothing to scold them, but he has never scolded them, and A-Niang sat aside, and he didn't know how to persuade him, so he told him to kneel there, kneeling straight, what Aya said, he was all born.
Later, Xie Ling asked him if he regretted it, especially when he learned that his little aunt had a hard time, whether he felt a little guilty and remorseful, and he told Xie Ling without thinking about it that in this life, the thing he regretted the least was this incident.
Today, Wen Zizhang asked him if he hated Zheng Duzhi......
It's ridiculous, such a person, why doesn't he hold grudges?
Xie Ji saw fear in Wen Zizhang's eyes, and he knew that the expression on his face must be terrifying at this time, and the cold around him was unexpectedly exposed, and he was going to get frostbitten.
He raised his hand and touched his face: "I saw the fear in your eyes, romance." ”
Wen Zizhang sighed in his heart: "It's just that I saw your face change dramatically for a while, and I have never seen ......."
Of course he has never seen it, he is an official in the Taiping world, and the intrigue is no longer as powerful as before, it does not involve life and death, it can only be regarded as a power dump, and other people's conspiracies are just to have more say in the court, that's all.
Unlike at that time, when they didn't get it right, they would die and give their lives to themselves.
"Actually, it's nothing, it's just that there are a lot of people who don't mention these things in front of me, and I'm going to lie to myself, when nothing has happened, I can't do anything with him now, I think too much, and it's not worth it to be angry." Xie Ji said while sighing, "You suddenly mentioned it today, I got on the head, and I lost my temper, which scared you." ”
Wen Zizhang waved his hand again and again: "It's not so intimidating, but it's just a little uneasy at first glance." ”
At this time, he thought about what Xie Ji asked before, did his grandfather want Xie Ji to meet Yu Zihui?
Wen Zizhang narrowed his eyes slightly and called Xie Ji: "If you go to see Yu Shizhong, can you ask him to change his mind?" ”
Xie Ji was puzzled: "What did you change your mind?" ”
"This ......" Wen Zizhang said that he was stunned, "The waiter didn't write Zheng Tandao's name on the roster, didn't he just have the heart to protect him and be biased against the Zheng family?" ”
Xie Ji was also stunned before, and he didn't think much about it for a while, Wen Zizhang asked without a head, he just asked a rhetorical question, and then he suddenly realized, and he said: "You said this, I was confused." ”
The ice on his face shattered, revealing that good-looking face again, although it was still not very gentle, but compared to before, it was much better: "He doesn't have to be biased against the Zheng family, but I didn't tell you just now, Zheng Duzhi's hand has a grace from the first emperor, but what the first emperor said, none of us know, even His Majesty doesn't know, so if this kind of thing happens, he probably doesn't want to involve the Zheng family, if Zheng Tandao is really involved, he has to ask Zheng Duzhi for help, When the time comes, if he moves out of the grace of the first emperor, who can help him? Coming and going, it's all troublesome and extraneous, so it's better not to touch their family members. ”
But Wen Zizhang felt incredible, and even felt that this remark was simply appalling.
They were afraid that Zheng Tandao would be involved, but in this case, it was a big case of King Guangyang's rebellion!
"According to what you say, how can the sons and nephews of the Zheng family act mischiefly, and the court can't help them?" Wen Zizhang pulled down his face completely, and asked Xie Ji with a sneer, "What kind of case is this?" Is it just a petty fight for ink? It is very likely that he was involved in a major case of rebellion, could it be that with the grace of his brother who doesn't know what it is, he turned a blind eye and let him go? Besides, even if he has nothing to do with rebellion, or in the end, King Guangyang has no intention of rebellion, then this time in a county in Nanzhang, there are so many officials involved in the corruption of ink, and most of the officials of Nanzhang County are not involved, this is not a petty fight against corruption! ”
He said it with righteous indignation and gritted his teeth.
Xie Ji thought to himself, in the end, he is still young and vigorous, being young has the benefits of being young, but when something happens, he can't hold his breath after all.
Wen Zizhang is already very good, he is frizzy and frizzy at Wen Zizhang's age, in fact, he is even better than Wen Zizhang now, but now that he looks back and looks at the person in front of him, Xie Ji can't help laughing.
He didn't stop laughing, but Wen Zizhang frowned, and he became more and more upset: "What are you laughing at?" ”
He was word-by-word, eerie.
Xie Ji was stunned: "It's not a joke for you, what you said is right, but isn'......t there an inside story here?" Fupin Chinese
