Chapter 285: New Hatred and Old Hatred
King Hou buried his head on the ground and said in a deep voice: "Following Xu Hongru's side is actually on the order of the young sect leader of the Wenxiang Sect!"
Wei Zhongxian was surprised: "Wang Haoxian?! Now the Holy Lord is preparing to send troops to Shifokou in Luanzhou, Hebei Province, to serve this Wang Haoxian and Wenxiang Sect in one pot, tell me, what did he send you to Xu Hongru's side?"
Hou Wang continued: "Gonggong Wei doesn't know anything, in fact, Xu Hongru is the eldest disciple of the former sect leader Wang Sen, and he doesn't take the young sect leader in his eyes at all, and he has long coveted the position of the sect leader. Two years ago, the young sect leader noticed that Xu Hongru had a big plan, so he ordered the villain to find ways to break into it and grasp its movements and conspiracy. I think all the adults know that I have always taught the young sect master to be pure-hearted and kind, and to obey the government's orders, and every time he opens the altar, he also persuades the people to be safe and good, and will never do such a great rebellion, rebellion and rebellion. In the battle of Zou County, the villain captured Xu Hongru and surrendered to the two Yang adults, which was also ordered by the young sect leader of my sect!"
Wei Zhongxian smiled incredulously: "You mean, Xu Hongru's rebellion this time has nothing to do with Wang Haoxian, on the contrary, Wang Haoxian also made a contribution to quelling the rebellion?!"
King Hou kowtowed: "That's right!"
Yang Guodong also clenched his fists at this moment and said: "Father-in-law Wei, before the siege of Zou County, the uncle and nephew of the last general had already received a secret letter from King Hou, saying that he would cooperate with my Ming officials and troops to take Zou County in one fell swoop. The words of the prince are credible!"
Wei Zhongxian pondered for a long time, and then asked Hou Wangdao: "Then Wei Qi is also like you, was Wang Haoxian sent to Xu Hongru's side?"
Hou Wang shook his head and said: "Fei Ye, after the subordinate got Xu Hongru's trust, in the past two years, he has been on a good relationship with Wei Qi, after Xu Hongru rebelled, I and Wei Qi showed their identity, and stated the interests and disadvantages, persuaded him, and finally got his help and successfully captured Xu Hongru!"
Wei Zhongxian nodded and said: "This matter is very important, you can't use your one-sided words to exonerate Wang Haoxian, the old man needs to make a decision after making a decision with the saint, you can wait patiently for news!"
When the three of them saw Wei Zhongxian agreeing to help, they were overjoyed and bowed down together to thank them.
Wei Zhongxian motioned for them to get up and asked Hou Wang, "How old is Wang Haoxian now?"
The prince bowed down again, and replied respectfully: "Eight out of fifty this year!"
Wei Zhongxian wondered: "Fifty-eight, isn't it four years older than the old man, why do you still call him the Young Sect Master, it's really interesting!"
King Hou replied: "The first sect leader Wang Sen once instructed that if you want to become the leader of the Smelling Fragrance Sect, you must first obtain the tail of the fragrant fox. And after the first sect leader returned from the crane, the whereabouts of the tail of the Xianghu Fox, the treasure of the town sect, were unknown, so for many years, although my Wenxiang Sect respected the young sect leader, the position of the sect leader has been vacant!"
Wei Zhongxian said with a smile: "The title of Young Sect Master is really easy to misunderstand, and the old man still thinks that Wang Haoxian is a young talent who can be compared with the Marquis of Zhongyong!"
Although Yang Guodong has been guarding Shandong, he knows a lot about what happened in Beijing, Gao Jie was a blockbuster two months ago, and people with a heart have already learned the news, and Yang Guodong happens to be a person with a heart, even if Gao Jie and the Wei family are close, this Yang Guodong is also clear. He immediately smiled and said: "Gonggong Wei, even if this Wang Haoxian is dozens of years younger, he can't be compared with the Marquis of Zhongyong!"
Wei Zhongxian glanced back at Gao Jie, and saw that he was depressed and depressed, and he was a little puzzled, and then smiled and pointed at him, and said to Yang Guodong and the others: "Do you know who this is?"
Yang Guodong and the three of them looked at each other and shook their heads.
Wei Zhongxian smiled and said, "He is the loyal and brave Marquis Gaojie!"
Yang Guodong and the three of them were shocked, and hurriedly clasped their fists at Gao Jie and saluted: "I don't know that the Marquis of Zhongyong is here, I'm rude!"
Who knows, after they finished speaking, Gao Jie didn't react at all, his eyes were still blank and demented.
Yang Guodong and the three of them looked at each other speechlessly, not knowing what this eccentric Zhongyong Marquis was doing.
When Wei Liangyue pinched Gao Jie's arm hard, he came to his senses with an "ahhhhh
Yang Guodong and the others didn't even dare to say it. Although they didn't know much about Gao Jie, they were clear about the fact that he was deeply appreciated by the saints and was the godbrother of His Royal Highness King Xin, and they were all glad that they had met this young magnate on the way when they visited Wei Zhongxian today.
Gao Jie is not too familiar with Yang Guodong, but Yang Zhaoji has been famous for a long time, and he can be regarded as one of the rare fierce generals in the late Ming Dynasty. At first, I was quite happy to see this famous general, but when I learned that he came with the prince, my mood suddenly changed. When King Hou showed that he was actually on the orders of Wang Haoxian, he did undercover business, betrayed Xu Hongru, and sold him to the government, Gao Jie was even more indignant, and secretly greeted Wang Haoxian's ancestors for eight generations, and he was a little distracted for a while.
But Gao Jie is not an ordinary person after all, he instantly adjusted his mentality to normal, and while dealing with Yang's uncle and nephew and Hou Wangxu, he secretly made up his mind to punish this hateful Hou Wang fiercely, and avenge Doctor Xu and thousands of righteous soldiers.
After thanking Wei Zhongxian again, Yang's uncle and nephew and Hou Wang gave generous gifts and left.
Wei Zhongxian looked at the gift boxes piled up on the table, and said to Wei Liangqing with a smile: "Qing'er, you and Long Feng, Wukong and Yue'er take these gift boxes to the backyard to see what is delicious and fun, and divide them all." Xiaojie and I still have something to say. ”
Wei Liangqing agreed repeatedly, and left the living room with Ji Longfeng and the others.
Wei Zhongxian looked at Gao Jie with a smile and said slowly: "Xiaojie, do you know why Uncle Wei left you behind when he saw a guest?"
Gao Jie frowned and shook his head uncertainly.
Wei Zhongxian stood up, walked up to Gao Jie, patted him on the shoulder vigorously, and comforted: "When I learned that these three people had hit a wall with Sun Shenxing, I knew that they would come to me for help, and it was just because of your relationship with that Xu Hongru that you left!"
Gao Jie's heart sank when he heard this, staring at Wei Zhongxian and not making a sound.
Wei Zhongxian smiled slightly: "You don't have to be nervous, the relationship between you and Xu Hongru is not known to the saint, I can know, just because there are my people in Ciqing Palace." ”
Gao Jie looked at Wei Zhongxian, his heart was beating, and he secretly thought that although Uncle Wei was born in the market and looked very arrogant, he was actually thoughtful and scheming, and he had only been a eunuch for less than a year, and he had a lot of eyes and ears inside and outside the palace.
Wei Zhongxian saw that Gao Jie was silent, looking quite wary, smiled bitterly, and sighed: "It seems that Xiaojie is still a little worried about Uncle Wei!"
Gao Jie saw sincerity and love in Wei Zhongxian's eyes, and the White Lotus Nine Life Divine Skill Seven Life Police did not let him feel the signs of danger, so he immediately relaxed, and said sincerely: "Uncle Wei, you are well-informed, since you know that I have a good relationship with Xu Hongru, why do you want me to meet the prince who betrayed him?!"
Wei Zhongxian smiled and said: "Because, Uncle Wei and you have the same feelings, and I hate this Hou Wang, as well as the Wang Haoxian of the Smelling Fragrance Sect!"
Gao Jie was surprised and asked, "Why is this?"
Wei Zhongxian paced a few steps with his back before he said slowly, "Do you remember where Uncle Wei is from?"
Gao Jie thought for a while and said, "Beizhili Suning." ”
Wei Zhongxian nodded and said, "Suning is close to Hebei, not far from the Shifokou in Luanzhou, the base camp of the Wenxiang Sect. When Uncle Wei was young, he was mixed in the rivers and lakes, and the power of the Wenxiang Sect was not small, and the disciples were all over Hebei, Shandong, Jiangxi, Jin, Henan, Qin, Sichuan and other places, and the old man inevitably had contact with them. Speaking of this, his eyes gradually became cold, and he suddenly looked up at the sky outside the gate, and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Wei was also like you, with good brothers and good partners around him, but unfortunately, they didn't survive to this day, and they all passed away before they could wait for Uncle Wei to make a difference!"
Gao Jie's heart moved, and he asked, "Those seniors are not because of the Smelling Fragrance Sect... ”
Wei Zhongxian retracted his gaze, turned his head to look at Gao Jie and said: "To be exact, my good brothers were killed because they offended Wang Haoxian's house, even if they were old men, they only escaped because of their fate! After that, because they really couldn't stay in their hometown, they made up their minds to harm themselves and enter the palace to avoid trouble!"
Gao Jie didn't expect Wei Zhongxian to enter the palace to be related to Wenxiang Sect Wang Haoxian, and he was stunned.
Wei Zhongxian let out a poignant and bitter laugh and continued: "I think that at the beginning, a few of our young people were just frolicking, and they didn't have time to avoid that Wang Haoxian's big ride, so they were ordered to escort the leader Liang Zilong to chase and kill him afterwards, except for the old man, the other three were all killed. Hehe, Wang Haoxian, a young sect leader of the Smelling Fragrance Sect, the pomp and circumstance are even bigger than the prefect's, and the end is extremely arrogant, me and my three brothers, in his eyes, are not even as good as ants!"
Seeing Wei Zhongxian's eyes red and hateful, Gao Jie was sad for a while, got up and patted him on the back, and comforted: "Those who do evil will be punished by heaven." It's not that I don't report it, the time has not come!"
Wei Zhongxian wiped away the old tears that he was about to fall, sniffed, and said to Gao Jie: "Xiaojie said it well! It's not that he didn't report it, the time has not come! However, this time, the time has still come!"
Gao Jie hesitated: "What does Uncle Wei mean is to take advantage of the cause of this Shandong rebellion to get rid of Wang Haoxian?!"
Wei Zhongxian said: "That's right, blood debt, it's time to get it back!"
Gao Jie thought for a while and said, "Then Uncle Wei, you just agreed to help Yang's uncle and nephew and Hou Wang... ”
Wei Zhongxian smiled and said: "Yang Guodong and Yang Zhaoji are both rare generals, and this time, the counterinsurgency is meritorious, and it is natural to help them." As for this Hou Wang, although he was ordered by Wang Haoxian, he is also a disloyal and unrighteous person, how can I really help him?!
Gao Jie hesitated: "Uncle Wei, don't you worry at all about telling Xiao Jie all such a secret thing without reservation?"
Wei Zhongxian stared into Gao Jie's eyes and said sincerely: "It's not Uncle Wei who boasts, from the rivers and lakes to the palace, the old man is always auspicious and auspicious when he is in trouble, in addition to having good luck and good luck, it also has a lot to do with me reading countless people and being good at recognizing people." The first time I saw you, Xiaojie, Uncle Wei regarded it as his own nephew, in my eyes, you are no different from Liangqing and Yue'er!"
Although Gao Jie knew that Wei Zhongxian's words were a bit exaggerated, he also felt his trust and importance to himself, and immediately smiled: "After that, Xiaojie will really have an elder who loves him!"
Wei Zhongxian nodded and said affectionately: "Xiaojie, you are a good boy who is smart and wise, but also attaches great importance to love and righteousness, it is very rare in this world, my family Liangqing and Yue'er may need you to take care of and help in the future!"
Gao Jie said solemnly: "Although Xiaojie and Liangqing's eldest brother and Yue'er have known each other for a short time, they are like brothers and sisters, and they will definitely support each other in the future, although Uncle Wei can rest assured." ”
Wei Zhongxian said with satisfaction: "That's good, that's good, I think you also realize that Uncle Wei is taking a dangerous road, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss, and there is no chance to turn over." Moreover, at that time, it will definitely cause disaster to my family, and this is what I am most worried about. Now that you have Xiaojie, Uncle Wei is pleased!"
Gao Jie thought of the verbal and written criticism of Wei Zhongxian by the literati of later generations, and thought that he was just a lone pioneer for the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and he immediately felt reverence, but he couldn't bear it, and persuaded: "Uncle Wei, haven't you thought about giving up? Maybe there is another choice?"
Wei Zhongxian smiled for a long time, and said in the middle of the night: "When I Wei Zhongxian first entered the palace, I was just the lowest servant, and I had to be favored by the saint, so I had the situation like today. ”
After Gao Jie heard this, the word "Yuzhong" appeared in his mind, but at this moment, looking at Wei Zhongxian, who had no hesitation, he suddenly felt for the first time that "Yuzhong" was so admirable.
Wei Zhongxian cleaned up his mood, pulled Gao Jie to sit down, and asked, "Uncle Wei knows that you want to save Xu Hongru, so you can speak, do you want Uncle Wei to help?"
