Chapter 63: The Inside Story Is Like
[Chapter 2, Volume 2]
Section 98
Seeing that Wei Changying and Wei Qing were stunned, Wei Xinyong sneered and said, "Wei Xinyong, the son of Zhibentang's concubine, is ...... Speaking of which, eldest lady, you should call me Uncle Clan! ”
"Are you...... The son and nephew of the Marquis of Jingcheng? Wei Changying's eyes froze.
Wei Xinyong said lightly: "Yes, my father is a single word, and he is Wei Qi's half-brother!" ”
Wei Changying and Wei Qing glanced at each other, and there was a suspicious look in their eyes.
Zhibentang's covetousness for the status of the main branch of Ruiyu Hall, and Jingcheng Hou Weiqi's coveting of the position of the lord of Weihuan and Shangzhuguo...... Although no one advertised it on the surface, how could the younger generation and granddaughter of the clan who Wei Huan had high hopes for? It is said that since this Wei Xinyong is a person who knows the main hall, or Wei Qi's nephew, most of them are inseparable from the assassin this time, and the previous so-called lack of malice and a clear conscience are also very ridiculous.
But Wei Xinyong kept calling Wei Qi's name, and he had no respect for this Marquis of Jingcheng, but he really didn't look like a disciple of Zhibentang?
I heard Wei Xinyong continue: "I have a big enmity with Wei Qi and his son, and I volunteered ten years ago to spy on the secrets of this hall and report it to Chang Shan. As a reward, Chang Shan Gong secretly funded me with a large amount of money, so that I could live and study - this transaction has always been very secure, but in the past two years, Fengzhou has been turbulent, and Chang Shan Gong is very old, I doubt that I will continue to contact Chang Shan Gong or find someone else...... It just so happened that I had decided to leave the imperial capital, so I came to see it for myself. Now that I see that your brother and sister are okay, then this cooperation can be continued. ”
Wei Changying didn't like his condescending tone very much, so he said coldly: "Whether this is the case, I haven't seen my grandfather, it's hard to say just a few words from you." You said that you have a great enmity with Wei Qi and his son, but you don't know what kind of hatred makes you not hesitate to betray the entire Zhihondo? It is said that Wei Qi is a son-in-law, and now he has taken over the Zhibentang, so why bother with a junior of yours? ”
After these words were asked, Wei Xinyong, who had been calm, did not speak for a long time, and after a long time, he raised his head, looked at Wei Changying with no emotion, and said, "I don't want to hear people mention this issue, you'd better never ask again...... When I found your grandfather, he wasn't as big as a tiger slave. Rao is like this, Chang Shan Gong didn't manage to encircle me as a subordinate, I and him just took what they needed! Do you think you'll be smarter than you were ten years ago? The first time you and I negotiated, it is common for us to have mutual temptations, but I am afraid that it will be harmful and stupid to cross each other's bottom line! ”
His sudden toughness made the atmosphere in the room stiffen, and the tiger slave's eyes showed a look of schadenfreude, but Wei Qing frowned and quickly thought about how to round the field - but Wei Changying immediately sneered and said proudly: "I am not as shrewd as my grandfather!" It's just that you don't forget, you also said just now, in this square inch room, your master and servant are powerless, and life and death are up to me! How dare you talk to me like that? ”
Neither of the two would let anyone, they stared at each other for a moment, but in the end, it was Wei Xinyong who retracted his gaze first, shook his head, and said: "So I want Wei Changfeng to come, and Wei Changfeng, who is cultivated as the future valve master, understands when he should see it and accept it!" And you, the spoiled eldest lady, only think about not falling behind! ”
Obviously, Wei Changying's question stepped on his sore spot, Wei Xinyong's tone suddenly became extremely cold, he didn't wait for Wei Changying to refute these words, he immediately said, "I don't want to say anything more to you, the following words are for you to tell Chang Shangong, I will only say it once, you had better remember it!" ”
"The person who assassinated your sister and brother was brought over by the Liu family when they sent their heir to Fengzhou under the pretext of sending them, and they have been lurking near Fengzhou! The reason why I was able to ambush you this time was because Liu Xixun, who had gone to Ruiyutang for a banquet before, was asked by the sons and daughters of the princess of Jingping about their departure from Fengzhou! ”
"On the bright side, this time your team has suffered a big loss, in fact, since you and Wei Changfeng are safe and sound, it can be said that you have taken advantage of it - it is estimated that Chang Shan Gong has now used this matter to investigate the 'Biwu' who did not arrive in time, and in the future, this elite of Rui Yu Tang can really be in the hands of Chang Shan Gong......"
Wei Changying didn't care about his previous words with him, and said in amazement: "Wait a minute! 'Biwu' is the secret guard of my Wei family, how is it not really in the hands of my grandfather?! ”
Wei Xinyong glanced at her coldly, and said sneeringly: "You yourself are the eldest daughter of the eldest daughter of the big house, so you have forgotten that Chang Shan Gong is not a concubine!" Back then, the old Jing Ping Gong passed the position of the valve owner to Changshan Gong, and it stands to reason that 'Biwu' should also be in charge of the valve owner. But the old Duchess Jingping was worried that Chang Shan Gong would not be satisfied with further seeking the hereditary title of Jing Ping Gong, so she persuaded your great-grandfather not to hand over 'Biwu' to Chang Shan Gong, but to the current Jing Ping Gong - Chang Shan Gong wants to use 'Biwu', and every time he must first tell Jing Ping Gong, and Jing Ping Gong will order! Although Jing Ping Gong is good at talking and doesn't like these vulgar things, every time Chang Shan Gong proposes it, he agrees without even asking about the cause and effect...... However, when your cousin, the prince of Jingping, grew up, he took all of these away! ”
He sneered and asked, "How noble are you and Wei Changfeng in the Ruiyu Hall?" Why do you rarely see 'Biwu' people around you? This is because Chang Shan Gong has worked hard for many years, although he has won the allegiance of some of the people in 'Biwu', in the end, the name is not right! I was afraid that forcibly seizing 'Biwu' would arouse the desperate gamble of the prince of Jingping, and he was just an ordinary guard by Changfeng's side! This is also the reason why Wei Changfeng is fifteen years old, but Chang Shan Gong still doesn't let him go to the imperial capital to become an official - 'Biwu' can't be used directly, not to mention, and can't even be trusted! What's more, Chang Shan Gong only has one grandson under his knees, how dare he risk him? ”
"A few months ago, Chang Shan's father-in-law went to Fengqi Mountain to suppress bandits...... Oh, the bandits are the people outside the door and the people who saved you, do you know why? Wei Xinyong said hesitantly, "This bandit is my reward for doing ten years for Chang Shangong, and this time the bandits are ...... Before Changshan Gong left, he insisted on getting out of the hands of the prince of Jingping, the most elite and most loyal to the prince of Jingping, and almost all of them died in Fengqi Mountain! The few people outside alone personally killed more than a dozen 'Biwu' who were tied up by their own people in their sleep! Another batch of deaths from the Great Victory in the state of the state...... If these people are in the hands of Chang Shan Gong, how can the assassins of the Liu family who have worked so hard to get them kill you so easily?! ”
"Of course, your assassination this time has a lot to do with Chang Shangong's two secret hands on 'Biwu'. After all, Chang Shan Gong's seniority theory is above that of Jingping Gongzi, and if Chang Shan Gong is called so many times, sooner or later 'Biwu' will be out of the control of Jingping Gongzi! This time, the prince of Jingping was also forced to be anxious by the prince of Changshan-"
Wei Changying's face turned pale, and he almost stood up, and said, "What do you mean, this assassination, is it...... Is it my uncle's hand in collusion with the Liu family? ”
"Maybe there's the Queen Mother in there?" Wei Xinyong said in a mocking tone, "There are so many people who want to think about the fall of Chang Shan Gong, for example, Zhibentang is not unprepared to intervene this time." ”
Wei Changying frowned and said, "What did Zhibentang do?" ”
Wei Xinyong said lightly: "It should be said that I am going to do something...... Your brothers and sisters are fine, especially Wei Changfeng escaped safely, and of course Zhibentang didn't do anything. ”
"......" Wei Changying lowered his head and thought for a moment, but understood, "Could it be related to my second uncle?" ”
- The assassin was brought over by the Liu family, and the timing of the move was from Liu Xixun. The Jingping Mansion was also not sure that Wei Changying would pester Mrs. Song and promise her to go to the suburbs to see her off, so the target of this assassination was Wei Changfeng.
Wei Zhengya, the son of Jingping Gongshi - Wei Changying, Wei Changfeng, and Wei Gaochuan are all called cousins, and he is so deliberately murdering his relatives and nephews, what else can the purpose be besides the position of the lord?
But although Wei Huan was repeatedly persuaded by Mrs. Song, he decided to cultivate Wei Changfeng to take over Rui Yutang, but if something happened to Wei Changfeng, Wei Huan would be sad and sad, and he would not have no other heirs under his knees, so he would not go to cheapen his nephew. It's just that in addition to Wei Changfeng, the most likely person to take over is undoubtedly Wei Shengyi.
…… It is no secret that Mrs. Song is wary of this concubine, a few months ago, for the fact that Wei Changying was beaten by Mrs. Su, she summoned Wei Changsui back as a hostage.
If Wei Changfeng died, when the Wei family tracked down the real culprit, they found out that it had something to do with Wei Shengyi, even if it was only a little relationship, how could Old Madam Song let go of this concubine?!
Even if she knew that it might be provoked by outsiders, but she felt that Wei Shengyi would be unfavorable to Wei Changfeng, who knew what she would do, in the case of the loss of her only grandson, who knew what she would do?
But Wei Huan has no grandson Wei Changfeng who has high hopes, and he must protect the most capable second son, Wei Shengyi......
In this way, Wei Huan is in chaos, this is Wei Zhengya's opportunity to take over Rui Yutang and regain the position of the lord of the valve!
The answer was obvious, Wei Xinyong didn't even bother to confirm it, and continued: "There is another piece of news that Chang Shan Gong probably already knows: there are Rong people in the corpses of the assassins. I heard that when the Liu family sent their heirs to Fengzhou and raised them for your cousin, they brought a group of slaves with them, and they were Liu Jizhao's servants in Donghu, and this time they were sent over to serve Liu Jizhao's widow and the heir who passed by...... But then the Jingping Mansion used the excuse that there were no spare empty houses in the mansion, and sent people to the Zhuangzi, you might as well ask if there is any trace of those people on the Zhuangzi after you go back! Your sister and brother were attacked outside Fengzhou City, and if you don't put the blame on the Rong people, no one in the sea is willing or able to bear such a big hatred. ”
"Not long ago, wasn't there a holy decree to praise the victory of the state and the north? It is said that he also beheaded a Rong general with some background, and now the Rong people sneak to Fengzhou to take revenge, which is a matter of course. Wei Xinyong said lightly, "When your cousin returned to her parents' house after being widowed, she wanted to be a widow, but she didn't bring her husband's servants back, nor did she immediately take over her step-heirs, I'm afraid it was here that she left a foreshadowing." After all, the charge can be blamed on the Rong people, but if there are too few Rong people, it is not credible...... Too many Rong people crossed the Nu River into Fengzhou, not to mention whether the Liu family would be held accountable for their ineffective border guarding afterwards, the appearance of the Rong people is different from that of our Great Wei people, and it is inevitable that more than one person will be easily detected. Therefore, only by hiding in the team of the Donghu Liu clan and borrowing the power of the Liu family can we achieve the effect of hiding people's eyes and ears so that Chang Shan Gong cannot detect it in advance! ”
After a pause, he continued, "If it weren't for this accident, I wouldn't have imagined that those so-called servants would most likely have a large number of Rong people among them!" ”
Wei Changying stared for a moment, and said, "I don't know something. If it is said that Zhibentang plotted to kill Changfeng, it was for the position of the Shangzhu Kingdom, and the cousin was for the position of the lord of the valve...... What about the Liu family? Although the two cousins and aunts are both daughters of the Liu family, but the Liu family is not without daughters now, Changfeng has not discussed marriage so far, why can't they marry a daughter and Changfeng, and save trouble? In the end, Uncle Tang and Zhibentang join forces, and they will inevitably give up the position of Shangzhu Kingdom! At that time, even if Ruiyutang falls into the hands of Uncle Tang, how can it be compared to now? ”
Wei Xinyong said lightly: "I don't have to explain it for you, but I think you have the courage to go to the appointment on behalf of your brother today...... It doesn't hurt to mention you: not only does your cousin not want to marry into the East Palace, but the queen doesn't need the Song family's concubine much now! ”
Wei Changying was taken aback, and subconsciously asked, "You mean, the queen wants the daughter of the Liu family more now?" This time Yiwei passed through Fengzhou, and Deng Zongqi ...... The queen did it on purpose?! ”
"None of this has anything to do with me." Wei Xinyong said indifferently, "I don't want to bother to solve your doubts - all in all, you bring these words to Chang Shangong and tell him that I saved your sister and brother this time, and these words, I will exchange a batch of money and food with him, and there is one person!" ”
Wei Changying frowned and said, "Who are you going to replace?" ”
She doesn't care about money and food, Fengzhou is Shangzhou, the wind and rain have been smooth in recent years, the harvest is good, and the state treasury is very sufficient. Although the northern part of the state was invaded by the Rong people from time to time, the impact on the whole state was not very great. What's more, with the background of the Wei family, even if there is no grain in the state treasury, the Wei family itself has always stored enough grain and rice for more than ten years.
- With so much money and grain storage, not only the Wei family, if it is not peaceful today, even if the people are promoted to the small people, they can have spare money, and they also want to save more for spare. A prominent family like the Wei family, who has experienced more than one dynasty, will prepare a way out for the whole clan as soon as they perceive the turmoil, otherwise they will not always prosper.
Therefore, Wei Changying was keenly aware that the most important thing in the remuneration that Wei Xinyong asked for was the person he said.
Her feeling was really right, Wei Xinyong said lightly: "Mo Binwei! ”
"It can't be!" Wei Changying didn't even think about it, so he rejected him, "This person has already been recruited by Changfeng, you will die of this heart!" ”
However, Wei Xinyong just smiled inexplicably: "You can't count what you said, why don't you go back and ask Chang Shangong?" ”
