Chapter 21 Requesting Politics and Leaking Opportunities (4)
"You?"
"Yes," Xia Yuanlong walked up to Yang Huaisheng, "I deceived Jimin and made him think that you really agreed, isn't this matter easy to handle." Who would have thought ...... You didn't go to Guozijian. ”
Wei Huai turned his head depressedly and looked out the window in silence.
"You!" Yang Huai grabbed his shirt and looked at him forcefully, "Renying, how dare you lie to me for this matter!" ”
"Brother Zhong Fang," Xia Yuanlong knelt down, "If you can really understand the reason, why should I hide it from you and the people!" I don't want to ruin our friendship, but for the sake of the new deal, Yuanlong sometimes has to give up these feelings! I hope Zhongfang thinks twice......"
"For the sake of the new policy, you are willing to cheat, are you not afraid of ruining our reputation of benevolence?!" Yang Huaisheng asked.
"Brother Yang, I know that what I did was not righteous, if you count me, I will not complain."
"Brother Zhong Fang," Wei Huai had to say something, "Renying can't stand you in this matter." But I am going to stop the discussion at this moment, and I ask you to forgive him for the sake of brothers. ”
Yang Huaisheng looked at Xia Yuanlong again, and helped him up: "I don't mind in my heart, it's just that Renying, it's too hurtful for you to do this...... In the future, if there is something to discuss openly, don't fool you as smart! ”
"Brother Xie Yang! Yuanlong must listen to Brother Yang's words. ”
"Disperse, disperse." Although Wei Huai didn't care, he felt quite bored, and said lazily.
This majestic plan ended in vain and was hastily concluded. After that, the three of them looked as harmonious as before, as if nothing had happened; But there is some estrangement in my heart. In addition to the important things on weekdays, the connection between them has not become as close as before.
Xia Yuanlong made a mistake in this matter, so he wanted to find another way to remedy it, so he said to Wei Huai: "The previous plan failed, and we must use other methods to figure it out." Why don't you find someone available to bypass Wan Heshun's Nanjing, send the book directly to Beijing, and let the imperial court decide on the new policy, wouldn't it save the effort of compiling? ”
Wei Huaizheng was writing "Xingyao", and when he heard his words, he immediately put down his pen and said, "I also thought so. But I have offended many people among the officials, and I am like isolation, how can anyone I trust help me to deliver the recital? ”
"That's a problem, too." Xia Yuanlong said.
"Are you discussing matters here?" Yang Huaisheng came from behind and asked; Then I walked around the corner and rummaged through the bookcase.
"yes......"
"I'll take something and won't disturb your discussions." Yang Huaisheng pulled out the book and said.
"Brother Zhong Fang, is your illness better?" Wei Huai asked.
"It's still not good, I got sick again yesterday...... "He got up and touched his forehead, "I still have a headache." ”
"Then you'd better rest at home for a few days, don't be so tired. Don't take this cold lightly. ”
"I still need my help here for the matter of "Xingyao", don't worry. Consult yourselves. Yang Huaisheng said, turned around and wanted to leave.
Xia Yuanlong hurriedly stopped at the door and said with a smile: "I have to ask Zhong Fanggong about this matter!" You are also the deputy leader of this academy. ”
Yang Huaisheng suddenly stopped, and wanted to mention what he was hiding from Wei Huai, but he stopped his mouth in time and only said, "Let's talk about it." ”
Xia Yuanlong repeated what he had just said to Wei Huai, and said, "Do you know such a person? ”
Yang Huaisheng glanced at him, and his tone was calm: "Cai Xianqing." So saying, he went out from the hall.
"Cai Xianqing?" Xia Yuanlong looked back at Wei Huai.
"According to Wei Huai's opinion, this person is able to take on the job!" Wei Huai pushed the draft of "Xing Yao" aside, "I'll write another recital." ”
Xia Yuanlong grabbed his arm, "He has nothing to do with us, and besides, he is a party of Wan Heshun, so he can easily entrust it to him...... I'm afraid it won't be possible. ”
"He could do anything to get me out of prison, and he didn't want a penny; Now it's just a matter of sending a piece of music...... I can trust him! ”
Xia Yuanlong had nothing to say.
Wei Huai asked Cai Xianqing's residence with a piece of music, looked for it on the street, but never found it, and walked straight onto the Huaiqing Bridge.
He walked slowly, and was suddenly patted behind him, and when he turned his head, it was Cai Xianqing.
"I'm looking for you, Cai Gong!" Wei Huai greeted him with joy.
"I know. Just now I saw the sake of the guard and asked my name, so I followed all the way. It's a pleasure to meet you here, it's a pleasure to meet you! Cai Xianqing saluted, "There are a lot of people here, it's not easy to talk, and I hope Mr. can enter the mansion to talk about it!" ”
"Of course, of course!" Wei Huai laughed, followed him out of the bridge, and went straight to his house.
The two walked into an alley, stopped under the white wall on the east wall, and saw a plaque with the word 'Cai Yu' hanging in the room in front of them, so Cai Xianqing took the key and pushed the door open.
Wei Huai thought that the house must have been noisy, but he saw a large circle of open space in front of him, with five or six chairs in the main hall, and firewood piled up in front of the ear rooms on both sides, which was deserted.
"Didn't Cai Gong teach many children who sang opera? Why didn't anyone come out? ”
Cai Xianqing laughed and said: "Recently, there are masters in Liangzhejiang who come to invite the opera troupe, so I sent them; Some of them are still on the side of Lao Lang'an, how can they be in my house. ”
"That's right...... Then Cai Gong has never married a wife? ”
Cai Xianqing beat his arm: "I used to have a wife, but I died when I was forty-three years old, so I didn't want to marry again, anyway, I'm old!" ”
Wei Huai saw that he was so kind and said everything openly, so he sincerely respected him.
The two of them sat down, Cai Xianqing poured tea for him, and asked, "I saw that Mr. Wei was looking for me urgently, why don't you talk about it now?" ”
"Oh," Wei Huai took out a note from his bosom, "This is my letter advising Prince Wan to implement the academy system, but the prince has not agreed. I thought I'd just hand it over to the court...... Get around this hurdle. ”
Cai Xianqing looked at him in surprise, then raised his eyes and exhaled: "I have to say, it's a bit bold." ”
"How?" Wei Huai asked nervously.
"Don't you just want to take advantage of the relationship between Liu Zhennian and the prince?"
"Liu Zhennian? I am handing it to the emperor, what does it have to do with him as a military minister? Wei Huai asked consciously and strangely.
"So the sake priest doesn't know about this? I don't know if I won't tell you more, the more you know about these things, the more troublesome it is. ”
Although Wei Huai was still with Geng Yuhuai, he didn't dare to ask any more, so he only replied: "That's good." ”
"All I can say is," Cai Xianqing touched his beard, "it will cause trouble." ”
"This ......" Wei Huai was embarrassed.
He looked at Wei Huai's depressed appearance, and a little entanglement appeared in his heart. But he didn't want to make himself look like an impotent coward in front of the people he admired the most, like an opportunistic rat; Although he is a henchman of Lord Wanwang, how can he be in the company of those shameless people! Thinking of this, his spirit is lofty and majestic, and his ambition has become to be a hero. Facing Wei Huai's longing eyes, he replied resolutely:
"Sir, just give me the recital, I can do it!"
