Chapter Eighty-Six: Master Sheng
"Just like last time, I also asked Mrs. Jiang to take me to the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department to find Master Wei."
Bao Yun's answer was completely different from what Mi Yuehua thought, and after being a little stunned, she didn't refuse Bao Yun's request, let alone ask Bao Yun what happened.
Like last time, the two of them had breakfast in Jiangfu, and after talking for a while, they estimated that the time for the next dynasty was up before they set off from Jiangfu to Weifu.
However, the difference this time is that Baoyun is not as patient as before, although Baoyun did not say it explicitly, and her smile is still so peaceful and indifferent, but looking at her eyes, Mi Yuehua can feel Baoyun's anxiety.
Because the Wei Mansion is closer to the palace than the Jiang Mansion, there is generally nothing Jiang Mohan went back to the Jiang Mansion with Wei Rong and then went to the Criminal Department and the Ministry of Officials respectively, so it was not a strange thing for Mi Yuehua to come to the Wei Mansion.
Now it's not a strange thing that another Baoyun has come to the Wei Mansion.
Today, they came a little earlier in a hurry, and when they came to the Wei Mansion, Wei Rong and Jiang Mohan had not yet returned. It can't be said that they came early, it was Jiang Mohan and Wei Rong who came back a little late.
Wei Rong is the son of Wei Jie, the prime minister of Wei Cheng, but because he opened a mansion, Wei Rong rarely goes back. So much so that it was more convenient for Wei Jie to talk to Wei Rong or when he went down to court.
After going down, Wei Jie caught up with Wei Rong and asked, "What did you go to Yu Mansion for the day before yesterday?" Is it really just for the girl of the Yu family? ”
Wei Rong's expression did not change in the slightest, and it seemed that Wei Jie would come to question him without the slightest surprise.
"I'm not too young, so it's not surprising to have such a mind." Wei Rong did not deny it.
Wei Jie didn't want Wei Rong to admit it so refreshingly, so he was stunned for a while before he said: "Over the years, my father has shown you so many outstanding famous and noble girls, and you can't look down on it. ”
"I never said that I like famous women, the woman I like is the woman I like, it has nothing to do with the family, let alone anything else."
Listening to Wei Rong talking to Wei Jie like this, Jiang Mohan really sweated for Wei Rong. You must know that the one standing in front of him is the only prime minister of the Dajin Dynasty, and he has gone through two dynasties, has a high position, and has won the trust of the emperor.
"You should know what your father expects of you, and it won't be a joke if your future wife is low! Wei Jie said with a face. ”
"My father's expectations for me are afraid that my son can't afford it, so what can I achieve depends on my son's creation. If you can't even marry the woman you like, what's the fun? Wei Rong Lingran said.
I can't even marry the woman I like. Wei Jie's face flashed gloom when he heard this, and his gaze at Wei Rong was no longer so harsh, but more tender.
Wei Rong felt the change in Wei Jie's mood, but he didn't know where this change started.
He didn't know, so he didn't see it, and said, "I still have some things to deal with, so I won't talk to my father." When the son has free time, he will go to say goodbye to his father, and the son will retire first. ”
After speaking, he didn't wait for Wei Jie's reaction, and walked away with his legs.
Jiang Mohan smiled apologetically at Wei Jie, bowed his hand, and followed Wei Rong's footsteps.
Looking at Wei Rong's distant back, Wei Jie sighed helplessly. Wei Rong is his most beloved son, and he can't let him take a wrong step.
But Wei Rong's words just now touched his heart, why didn't he come over like this, he also had a time when he was a teenager.
Let's see how things play out. Wei Jie sighed and walked forward, and suddenly a voice shouted to him behind him, even if he didn't turn around, he could hear who the voice belonged to.
After recovering his face, he turned around, smiled politely at the visitor, and said, "Master Sheng, I don't know what is important for Master Sheng to call the original appearance." ”
The Sheng Taishi in Wei Jie's mouth is the queen's father Sheng Qinghe, Sheng Qinghe has gone through three dynasties, and is now sixty years old, but the identity of the Taishi is only available in this dynasty.
The Sheng family is also full of glory, Sheng Taishi's eldest son Sheng Langming was named the general of Zhennan by the saint, with 200,000 soldiers and horses stationed in the south, and his daughter Sheng Langyue is the current queen. Sheng Langming's eldest daughter Sheng Yufei married Zhao Xun, the current commander of the forbidden army.
"It's not a big deal, it's just a matter of asking Prime Minister Wei to say a few words." Master Sheng stroked his gray beard and smiled very kindly.
Wei Rong shook his wide sleeves and said with a smile: "Master Sheng is so interested, what does Master Sheng want to say, I will accompany him." ”
Sheng Qinghe raised his eyes and could still see the back of Wei Rong striding away, and said: "Recently, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department has been in the limelight in the market, saying that it is for Yu Shilang's eldest girl who is fascinated, I don't know if this matter is true or false." ”
"Since Master Sheng said that it is the words of the market, it must not be believed." Wei Jie replied with a smile.
"It's a popular word, but it's not necessarily unbelievable. The day before yesterday, Imperial Physician Xu was invited into Yu's mansion, saying that Yu Shilang's eldest girl was poisoned by the red of the crane, and the person who went to invite Imperial Physician Xu was holding Wei Shangshu's waist card in his hand. Sheng Qinghe said with a smile.
"Yu Shilang has just taken office from Yicheng, and there must be many places where he is not adaptable. As his immediate boss, my son is also more concerned. Besides, my fair lady and gentleman are good, although my son is twenty-seven, but after all, he is not married, which is also reasonable. Wei Jie directly took Wei Rong's words and blocked Sheng Qinghe's mouth.
Sheng Qinghe, like Wei Jie before, didn't want the answer to be so direct, and after a pause, he said with a smile: "Lord Wei, the old man and your colleagues have been in disagreement for decades, although there have been times when there are political disagreements, but it is a business after all. For the sake of the affection of colleagues for decades, the old man also wants to remind you that Wei Shangshu is still young and ignorant, but as his father, Master Wei should plan for him, how can he come from his temperament? ”
"My son is not an assertive person, he is already a scholar, how can he be young and ignorant, Master Sheng is really joking. Could it be that the emperor had a bad eye back then, and actually promoted him to manage the criminal department with such a young and ignorant person? ”
Sheng Qinghe dared to say that the emperor was wrong, waved his hand and said: "Alas, Lord Wei has thought too much, Fang is the old man's mistake, but the old man is also kind-hearted, for the sake of Lord Wei." ”
Wei Jie already had a coldness in his smile, and said lightly: "Thank you Master Sheng for your kindness, I understand it." ”
Having said that, he couldn't say any more, Sheng Qinghe casually found an excuse and left.
