Chapter 1314: Difficult
The next day, when Zhao Hongrun had just gotten up, he heard Zong Wei's report that Wei Gongziyu had been waiting in his study for a long time.
So, Zhao Hongrun took the finch to the study, and happened to see Wei Yu looking at the calligraphy and paintings on the wall, so he greeted: "How did my cousin rest in the house yesterday?" ”
Wei Yu smiled and nodded.
But in fact, he tossed and turned in the east wing of the palace last night for most of the night.
It's not that the conditions of the wing rooms in King Su's Mansion are too poor, but Wei Yu has been struggling with the conversation with Zhao Hongrun's cousin last night when he was drinking in the garden.
Although Wei Yu has a good impression of Zhao Hongrun's cousin, Wei Yu is quite resistant to the latter's suggestion that he should not pursue certain things again.
Therefore, in the end, Wei Yu decided not to get too close to this cousin, so as not to be embarrassed in the future.
Seeing Zhao Hongrun walking into the study, Wei Yu arched his hand and said, "Brother Xian, Brother Fool is here to resign." ”
Zhao Hongrun was stunned when he heard this, and said, "Cousin, could it be that the younger brother is not well entertained?" ”
Wei Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head.
In his opinion, this cousin was not well entertained, it was obvious that he was too enthusiastic, so enthusiastic that he was faintly worried about the future.
After all, in Wei Yu's opinion, if he wants to break away from the dependent Wei State in the future, then there will definitely be contradictions with the Wei State, and there will be a war between the two countries in the future, so keeping a distance from each other at this time is actually a good thing for both sides. - These are these words from the bottom of his heart, and he is not good at speaking directly to Zhao Hongrun.
"Where." Wei Yu shook his head, and said, "Brother Xian, Brother Fool came to Daliang this time, after all, he came as a proton, and he should live in the "Proton Mansion" arranged for me by the imperial court......"
Of course, Zhao Hongrun knows this kind of thing, but in his opinion, the cousin in front of him seems to have not given up on investigating some of the behaviors of Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, Sun Mu, the Marquis of Humu, and the Marquis of Yuanling, Uncle Yu and others in the previous war, and it seems that he has not yet learned to give up criticizing the court of Wei, which is destined to teach this cousin a lesson in Daliang.
And he kept this cousin to live in the Su Wang's mansion, in fact, he just wanted to help him - if he could dissuade this cousin from talking nonsense and criticizing the court during this period, wouldn't there be nothing?
Thinking of this, Zhao Hongrun said euphemistically: "Cousin, in fact, I think it's better for you to live in my house......"
Wei Yu shook his head when he heard this, and said with a smile: "It's still not good, the virtuous brother's mansion is preparing for a marriage, so the foolish brother won't bother." ”
After talking back and forth several times, seeing that Wei Yu still didn't listen to his opinion, Zhao Hongrun had no choice but to let Wei Yu lead his wife and concubines and children away.
When they were sent outside the mansion, Zhao Hongrun watched Wei Yu's wife and concubines get into the carriage when they came, and said meaningfully: "Cousin, if it is inconvenient to live in Daliang in the future, you might as well send someone to inform me." ”
"Then thank you, brother Xian." Wei Yu bowed his hand, but looking at his expression, Zhao Hongrun knew that this cousin did not take his words to heart.
Watching Wei Yu's carriage slowly drive away and go to the Ministry of Rites, Zong Wei Gaokuo, who came out to see him off together, sneered and said: "I really don't know what to do, and His Royal Highness still intends to pull him ......"
Hearing this, Zong Wei Mu Qing asked curiously, "What's wrong?" Could it be that someone deliberately embarrassed this Wei Yu? ”
Gao Kuo sneered and said: "I heard the rumor a few days ago, and some people are preparing to teach this Wei Yu a lesson, telling him to talk nonsense and attack the imperial court again...... I think this Wei Yu has to endure hardships. ”
Zhao Hongrun heard Gao Kuo's words behind him, frowned and turned back and asked, "Who released the news?" ”
Seeing His Royal Highness asking, Gao Kuo hugged his fists and said solemnly: "It's Zhu Jin, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites." …… If there is no accident, Lord Zhu will probably be this "wicked person". ”
Zhao Hongrun frowned thoughtfully, nodded for a long time and said, "I know." ”
With that, he turned around and returned to the house, much to the surprise of the finch.
After Zhao Hongrun returned to the study, Que'er couldn't help but ask without saying anything: "Son, if there is a senior official of the imperial court who wants to target your cousin Wei Yu, you will ......."
As if he had guessed the mind of the bird, Zhao Hongrun shook his head and said: "Zhu Jin, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, I have never dealt with him, but I also know that this is an upright and upright court official. …… In fact, it was not that Zhu Jin wanted to target Wei Yu, but that the Ministry of Rites wanted to teach Wei Yu a lesson. Speaking of this, he shook his head and said in embarrassment: "I can't interfere in this matter. ”
Indeed, as long as Wei Gongziyu still refuses to admit his mistakes and still insists on criticizing the so-called 'mistakes' of the imperial court, then the Great Liang Imperial Court is destined not to give Wei Yu a good look, although it will not harm Wei Yu's family of five, but it is inevitable that he will deliberately make things difficult in his daily life.
Although Zhao Hongrun and Wei Yu are cousins, it is really difficult for him to interfere in this matter.
Unless Wei Yu is willing to "repent".
Thinking about it, Zhu Jin, the left waiter of the Ministry of Rites, released that rumor, on the one hand, it was to make people understand the attitude of the Ministry of Rites towards Wei Yu, and on the other hand, it was also to say hello to Zhao Hongrun in advance.
As Zhao Hongrun guessed, about half an hour, when Wei Yu came to the Ministry of Rites with his wife, concubines, children and several guards, he was snubbed.
It stands to reason that with Wei Yu's identity as "Wei Gongzi", even if Du You, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, does not come forward to receive him in person, there will be Zhu Jin, the left waiter, and He Yu, the right waiter, who will come forward to receive him.
But in fact, Wei Yu's family of five and several guards have been unreceived since they entered the Ministry of Rites, and the officials in the office simply ignored Wei Yu and the others after they brought tea.
After waiting for an hour, Wei Yu's guard "Meng Chong" couldn't wait any longer, walked outside the house and called a small official, asking, "When will your mansion send someone to settle my son-in-law?" ”
The little official said politely: "Lord Shangshu and the two adults on the left and right are busy with affairs, and I ask Gongzi Wei to forgive me and wait here for a while." ”
Meng Chong nodded and returned to the living room.
Waited left and right, waited for another hour, waited for Meng Chong's heart to be angry, walked out of the living room angrily, called a small official passing by in the courtyard, and repeated the previous question.
Unexpectedly, the little official's answer was exactly the same as the previous one: "Lord Shangshu and the two adults on the left and right are busy with affairs, and I ask Gongzi Wei to forgive me for a while, wait here for a while." ”
Wei Yu's bodyguard Meng Chong, who was originally a heroic man who defended the country, was short-tempered, and when he heard this, he was furious, stretched out his hand and grabbed the placket of the little official's clothes, and shouted angrily: "Wait a while, my son-in-law has been waiting here for two hours, and you adults still don't show up?" Could it be that you're playing tricks on my son-in-law?! ”
However, although the rugged-looking Meng Chong grabbed the placket of his clothes, the little official was not afraid and reprimanded loudly: "What are you going to do? This place is the Ministry of Rites! …… Hugh is going wild! ”
As soon as the words fell, a team of guards rushed in the distance, about a dozen people, and the leader of the team shouted violently from afar: "Hey! What the hell are you trying to do?! Let it go! ”
As he spoke, the guards behind him drew their blades from their waists.
Seeing this, Meng Chong's eyes were cold, he tightened the placket of the little official's clothes, and raised it with one arm, pressed the saber on his waist with his right hand, and said with a cruel smile: "Want to play with the master?" Accompany you! ”
Just as he was about to draw his sword, a hand suddenly stretched out from the side and pressed it on the back of his hand: "Stop." ”
Meng Chong turned his head to take a look, and then saw that it was his own son-in-law Wei Yu.
At this time, the team of guards had already surrounded them, looking at Wei Yu and Meng Chong with unkind expressions.
Seeing this, Wei Yu motioned to Meng Chong to let go of the little official, and bowed to the little official: "It's Wei's guard who is rude, please don't be surprised by this adult." ”
The little official glanced at Wei Yu and Meng Chong a few times with a cloudy face, and then straightened his clothes, and said coldly: "Forget it this time, don't take it as an example." …… Don't forget, this is the headquarters of our Ministry of Rites, and no one is allowed to go wild here! ”
With that, he brushed his sleeves away, and the guards departed one after another.
Looking at the backs of these people leaving, Meng Chong's face turned red with anger, as if he wanted to draw his sword and cut them all, but in the end, he was pulled back to the living room by Wei Yu.
"These people are clearly deliberately snubbing!"
After returning to the living room, Meng Chong, who was born as a hero, still couldn't understand his hatred, and his face was angry.
Wei Yu was silent.
In fact, in his eyes, some things are obvious, such as the team of guards.
As far as he knew, the guards in the Great Liang City of Wei were only responsible for the defense and patrol of the city, although they would also send some people to stand guard at various official offices in the city, but they would generally not enter the official residence, unless something happened in the official residence.
And the speed at which the guards arrived was obviously too fast, as if these people were actually waiting around here.
"If it weren't for Gongzi just stopping me, I would have to make them look good! …… It's just a dozen people, I, Meng Chong, will be afraid of them?! Meng Chong still shouted loudly with hatred.
Hearing this, Wei Yu said with a light smile: "You are not afraid of more than a dozen people, but what about more people when they call for them?" This city has at least thousands of guards...... You're not going to be able to knock them all down, are you? Even if it is defeated, there will still be the Junshui army of Wei on the outskirts of the city...... Therefore, it is better to settle down. ”
Hearing this, Meng Chong was immediately speechless, after all, no matter how conceited he was, he couldn't defeat thousands of guards, let alone the Junshui army outside the city.
At this time, Wei Yu's main wife, Wei Chen, hugged the two cute little guys and whispered quietly: "If I knew this was the case, I might as well live in my uncle's palace......
Wei Yu was silent.
In fact, he did not regret it, because he had expected that the trip would be difficult.
"Wait a little longer." Wei Yu comforted his wife.
Wei Chen sighed slightly and didn't say anything more.
waited until noon, waiting for Wei Yu and his party to be hungry, and his lovely children couldn't help but pull their mother's sleeves and shout hungry.
At the same time, Zhu Jin, the left waiter of the Ministry of Rites, was in his waiter's room, quietly listening to the small officials in the house narrating the movements of Wei Yu and his party.
