Chapter 268: Loyal to Xu Maoze
The weather is a little cold, and there are charcoal basins indoors.
Smokeless carbon burns silently and warmly.
This is the most expensive charcoal fire in the silver dust charcoal capital, and as soon as Wang Wei approached the back hall of the Qin family, he felt a burst of warmth sweeping through his heart.
There was a slight smoke at the end of his nose, and Qin Wei looked at the void.
Nothing.
The winter nights seem to be suffocating with life.
And at the moment there is only dead silence.
Winter gives people the illusion that there is only oneself in heaven and earth.
Qin Wei lowered his eyes slightly, and said softly: "After curing Neizi, you and I will have all our grievances, but don't think about it for 100,000, I can only guarantee that you return to your hometown alive." ”
Didn't you just talk about grievances during the day?
Wang Weiyi shook his head secretly in his heart, it seems that this young man's words really can't be believed.
His eyelids twitched, but Qin Wei found out but didn't react.
Wang Weiyi continued his judgment.
After a long while, he bowed down and saluted: "Wang doesn't dare to ask for extravagance, I just ask Lord Qin to make a move and let the Wang family stay in Bianliang ......."
Wang Weiyi's ancestral home is South Guangxi Road.
It is surrounded by karma all year round, and it is not easy to live, let alone any quality.
He didn't want to go back to his hometown, and besides, he was already a degraded person, and when he went back, he was just ridiculed.
Qin Wei moved his shoulders and said lightly, "You are excessive." ”
He has mixed feelings right now.
I can't talk about hating anyone, I just feel very aggrieved, no, it's quite aggrieved.
Just brought down people, and this is another cheap crime to protect people.
Are you cheap......
These words came from Xu Mao from the palace, which shows that he despised Qin Wei for this matter.
Wang Wei had seen Qin Wei's methods.
Now he can only plead, and he will never dare to ask for any more conditions.
"Wang didn't dare to ask for an official position, he just asked Lord Qin to ask His Majesty for a favor for the sake of my dedicated diagnosis and treatment, so that my family could stay in Bianliang and live."
Zhao Zhen will give Qin Wei this face.
After all, it's not a big deal, it's just a face.
……
"The Qin family's bounty has been withdrawn!"
When the news reached the palace, Zhao Zhen couldn't cry or laugh.
This was Qin Wei's request, but Zhao Zhen smiled bitterly and said, "He's giving me a problem."
Wang Weiyi is destined to be driven out of the capital, otherwise Zhao Zhen's face will not be able to hang.
Xu Mao doesn't care, he is not the emperor, his face is not so valuable, Qin Wei can buy his face, but it is difficult to buy back Zhao Zhen's face.
Xu Mao also smiled and said, "If Your Majesty can trust it, leave this matter to the old slave." ”
"How?"
Zhao Zhen glanced at him.
As an inner servant, you must have the consciousness of a master to share your worries.
Zhao Zhen felt that although this Xu Mao was older, his ability was still good and loyal enough.
If Xu Mao knew Zhao Zhen's thoughts, he would be happy.
He smiled and said: "The old slave found someone to assassinate Wang Weiyi in his private name, and you punished the old slave for committing taboos, so even if Wang Weiyi stays in the capital, outsiders will only say that you are merciful and forgiving." ”
Help!
With the punishment of Xu Mao, he hugged his fist, and he and Qin Wei saw the friendship of the monarch and the minister.
It's a good idea, it's just ......
Zhao Zhen looked at Xu Maoze with relief, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, loyal and courageous!
If he could have a few more such courtiers around him, the world would have been in his hands a long time ago.
Xu Mao also looked at Zhao Zhen, and his face did not change in the slightest.
There is no pampered and proud and fluttering.
All right! Although he is an old man left by his father, he is also the most loyal to me.
Zhao Zhen thought so, so he said softly: "You have worked hard all these years, go back to the inner library to get some self-esteem, and rest more when you are old, and let the people below do some work." ”
Grace!
Xu Maoze's eyes instantly moistened, and he looked at Zhao Zhen blankly.
How many years......
Since Zhenzong ascended the throne, he was the emperor's chamberlain, and later Zhao Zhen succeeded to the throne, and Liu E had just taken power, so it was natural to suppress some old people from the previous dynasty and courtiers from the pro-imperialist faction.
Xu Mao is one of them.
He had a hard time in those years!
The little emperor was only thirteen or fourteen years old, and he was completely an uncivilized child, and he didn't understand these confrontations between power and government at all.
As the most powerful first chamberlain in the Imperial City of the Great Song Dynasty, he experienced different versions of the world every day.
Those little eunuchs who had been called and drunk by themselves in the past all began to take revenge.
In fact, everyone has no hatred, but if you are born in this palace wall, if you don't step on people, others will step on you.
Later, Zhao Zhen slowly began to manage the government, and Xu Maoze's life improved a little.
The master has the right, and the talent to be a slave is beautiful.
It's just that the 'improvement' is also limited, after all, Liu E was the real master of the Great Song Dynasty at that time, and the palace attendants also took advantage of the situation to fall with the wind.
Especially Zhao Zhen in adolescence, it is simply cloudy and uncertain.
From time to time, he would lose his temper because of the hesitation between him and Liu E, and in the end, it was him, the personal attendant, who was hurt.
But today, Zhao Zhen gave him 'hard work'.
This is the first time I've ever experienced it!
Xu Mao finally experienced the favor from the emperor again.
This favor will make his status in the palace walls skyrocket.
And the people who caused all this...... It's Qin Wei!
The things before and after were all caused by Qin Wei.
Just now, he was still angry about Qin Wei's self-inflicted behavior, and felt that he had helped him, but he also made you lose face.
But now he was extremely grateful to Qin Wei.
If there was no matter today, Zhao Zhen would definitely not let down his guard against him, a former courtier, so quickly.
……
At night, the cold wind howled.
Qin Wei sat beside the charcoal fire, holding the prescription in his hand and carefully considering it, while Duan Yu next to him was holding a warm basin, in which the wine was warm with a pot of low-degree sake.
Bang bang.
Two slight knocks on the door interrupted his thoughts.
Duan Yu didn't open the door, and Qin Wei didn't move, just said lightly: "Someone did it?" ”
"Yes!"
Daniel Zhang's voice came from outside the door.
"Do you recognize who it is?"
"I can't recognize it, the other party is all raw and masked, and they are all masters, if it weren't for Lang Jun sending the Northern Expeditionary Army, we might have suffered a loss......"
"Could it be someone from the palace?"
There are only a few capable killers in Bianliang City.
Everyone has their own channels, and it is not difficult to find out if you look carefully.
The person who may make Daniel Zhang unable to find out the problem should be in the palace.
"It's hard to say, but it's very likely that they are all masters! And he was very keen, and he felt that he was defeated by the Northern Expeditionary Army, so he retreated decisively...... Di Qing wanted to catch a living, but the other party escaped......"
Can escape from Di Qing's hands...... Qin Wei was a little shocked.
You must know that Di Qing is more than one person now, and the Northern Expeditionary Army under him is gradually becoming elite, it is impossible to fight one against a hundred, but it is stable with one enemy and ten.
And the killer is not a level against the army.
They don't have that tacit understanding of coordination and cooperation, and they don't know how to rush into battle.
In addition, Daniel Zhang emphasized the 'master' twice.
That means that he thinks that he did it in the palace, but he can't say it directly because of his identity.
Qin Wei sighed: "Lao Xu won't even give me this face?" ”
It is said that he has a good relationship with Xu Maoze, and in recent years, Qin Wei has shown favor many times, and Xu Maoze has also responded.
This shows that he recognizes Qin Wei.
But today, when it was time to test, Xu Mao collapsed......
Hurry up Ming'er to send him some braised pork with rat medicine!
Qin Wei was a little angry, but he was helpless, he couldn't go to the palace to get people.
Just like Xu Mao can't really attack him, everyone has their own means, but they are also distinct.
……
The next morning, Qin Wei had just gotten up, and Daniel Zhang waited for the wind and snow to come.
The thin face was red from the cold, and there was a snot hanging under the nose, which seemed to be frozen hard.
Qin Wei took Duan Yu's towel, dipped it in hot water and handed it to Daniel Zhang.
Daniel Zhang was a little flattered and hesitated to pick it up.
After all, the current Qin Wei is no longer the night market shopkeeper who fooled himself under the bridge of that state.
The disparity in status has reached the horizon.
Earlier, Daniel Zhang was still a little depressed, but as Qin Wei moved up step by step, the accumulation turned into admiration, which also made him respect this young man who was much younger than himself.
"Don't worry, Nuan Nuan will speak again."
He motioned Daniel Zhang to enter the house, and then said to Duan Yu: "Go and find a warm pot for Lao Zhang, if he freezes this day, he will have chilblains every year in the future." ”
"Thank you, Lang Jun......"
Daniel Zhang is from a ruffian, but he has a rare Geng straightness in a hooligan.
He was moved and not hypocritical at the same time, he hurriedly sat down and roasted the fire, rubbed his hands and said, "Lang Jun, you guessed right, it was the people in the palace who shot last night." ”
"Who is it?"
Qin Wei wanted to ask, was it Zhao Zhen or Xu Maoze.
There is an essential difference between the two.
If it was Zhao Zhen, with his soft and waxy temperament, he probably wouldn't be so harsh.
After all, there is still affection between the monarch and the minister, if it is really Zhao Zhen who did it, then he has to consider finding another way.
Such a snarky emperor, do you dare to follow?
Anyway, Qin Wei didn't dare.
"Neidu knows Xu Maoze!"
Daniel Zhang's words made Qin Wei breathe a sigh of relief, and he said, "It's not unusual for him to instruct the guards in the palace to assassinate...... But there is no impermeable wall, it depends on how His Majesty handles this matter. ”
After Daniel Zhang warmed up, he talked more: "Dispose of it...... Your Majesty got up in the morning and learned about this, and then he was furious, saying that he was dividing the relationship between you and Your Majesty...... Xu Mao was beaten by 20 boards, and his official position was demoted by two levels, and now it has become the Funing Hall Incident. ”
"En......"
Qin Wei nodded, Zhao Zhen's approach is in place, as an emperor, you must be ruthless when you should be ruthless.
But...... Well? …… Wait a minute!
Qin Wei was suddenly stunned, and then smiled again.
Seeing him smile, Duan Yu followed: "You deserve it, let that old servant not give Lang Jun your face!" Collusion with the royal guards in private is a grave crime......"
Qin Wei glared at him angrily: "Get out!" That's not what I'm laughing at. ”
Help!
What a bitter ploy.
Lao Xu, you are ruthless enough, you would rather be beaten than fulfilled, this Qin family has been recorded!
Xu Mao seems to have been punished, but it depends on his position...... Funing Hall Incident!
This is the rise of light and the fall of darkness......
