Chapter 441
The emperor asked Liang Xiao to participate in the trial of Yan Zhu and Zhu Maichen, and Liang Xiao refused without hesitation.
His reason is very strange. First, I don’t have time, I’m busy getting married, I don’t have time to deal with these things. Second, I’m not interested. The conflict between Yan Zhu and Zhu Maichen has been resolved in Balingyi. For now, I am the winner and have no revenge to avenge. Besides, if I want to take revenge, I will do it myself and be quick and neat. There is no need to talk to him in this way and waste time.
The emperor did not force Liang Xiao anymore. He suggested that Liang Xiao participate in the trial of this case, not only to give Liang Xiao a chance to vent his anger, but also to see how Liang Xiao handled it and see if he had any signs of cooperation with Tian Fu. He had no problem dealing with Yan Zhu, and if he had anything to do with the ministers of the Foreign Court, he would not accept it.
Liang Xiao's reaction was very satisfied, and it also suited Liang Xiao's rough personality. The emperor was relieved and let Liang Xiao go back to prepare for the wedding. After the arrangement was made, he would just notify him of the time. He, the host of the marriage, would be on time.
Liang Xiao thanked him repeatedly and left Weiyang Palace with satisfaction. He knew that Yan Zhu and Zhu Maichen would have to peel off even if they were not dead. They had nine of them covered in the face of the emperor, and they were not enough to cut their heads. He had no sympathy for Yan Zhu and the others. Not to mention that there was a conflict between them, even if there was no conflict, he had no good feelings for these two.
For the sake of their own wealth, they abandoned the principle and only the emperor's orders are followed. What is the difference between them and Zhang Tang and others whom they look down on.
Liang Xiao returned home and continued to prepare for the wedding. While busy with these major events, he did not forget his plan to grow vegetables. He asked someone to take out the seeds, opened a few pieces of land in Maoling's manor, and planted them.
On this day, when he was checking the germination of the seeds in the ground, Wei Qing and Zheng Er came.
"Zhongqing" Liang Xiao was very surprised. "Why did you come here? You can't tell me if you have something to do."
Wei Qing was embarrassed. "I'm afraid you'll be bombarded out."
Liang Xiao was stunned for a moment and laughed. "Why did I want to beat you? Because of the matter of merit?"
Wei Qing nodded. Just as he was about to speak, Liang Xiao stopped him. "Okay, I know this is not your problem, and you don't need to blame yourself. This matter is revealed. There is no need to mention it in the future. Tell me, what else is there?"
Wei Qing was a little confused. He thought about the words all the way, but Liang Xiao exposed the matter without listening to a single word. He didn't know what to say next. When Liang Xiao saw him, he couldn't help but feel sorry for him. In history, he had the strength of a famous general, but was exhausted by the reputation of his relatives. Now, his chance was robbed by himself, and he felt guilty.
I should feel guilty.
"By the way, when will you do your business?"
"I'm here today, I'm going to discuss it with my senior brother." Zheng Er came over and rescued Wei Qing. "Your marriage is well known to everyone. Should we do it well or not?"
Liang Xiao turned his head and looked at Zheng Er. He grinned. "Have you been in contact with the master recently?"
Zheng Er pretended to be puzzled. "Senior brother, what did you say?"
"You are pretending to me." Liang Xiao pinched Zheng Er's nose. "If you don't go to find a master to make decisions for you, or you don't go to find your brother, but you just come to me. You're not worried that I have any ideas in my heart, so I'm not so scrupulous."
"I knew my senior brother was not that kind of person." Zheng Er jumped up and looked furious.
Wei Qing was startled and quickly pressed Zheng Er's shoulder. "Be careful, you are pregnant."
Liang Xiao couldn't laugh or cry. Zheng Er was just a slut. It was useless to have a lot of children, just like when she first saw her. If she wanted to practice like Liu Ling, she could only count on her next life.
"Talk the serious business." Liang Xiao waved his hand and interrupted Wei Qing and Zheng Erqi's rhythm. "You can do it first. When I start doing it, you may not even be able to invite guests. In addition, I will be your best man before I get married."
Zheng Er said in a slight manner: "That's so sorry, how dare I rob the senior brother of the first place?"
Liang Xiao said bluntly: "Your son has two, and now I tell me that I dare not take the lead."
"Oh," Zheng Er was so embarrassed that he covered his face and stamped his feet. He turned around and ran towards the carriage.
Wei Qing hurriedly chased him and brought Zheng Er into the car. Zheng Er took Wei Qing's hand and whispered: "Be careful, my senior brother is a little bit too much. Who knows if he really doesn't care or says he must make sure to make sure to him that when we get married, he must come. Once he agrees, we will report to the master and make it difficult for him to regret it."
Wei Qing nodded repeatedly and listened to the crowd. He asked Zheng Er to stay peacefully in the car, and he returned to Liang Xiao's side, bowed his hand, and wanted to speak but stopped.
When Liang Xiao saw it, he couldn't help but want to laugh. He sat down on the Qianmo by the field and signaled Wei Qing to sit down. Wei Qing did not hesitate and sat down next to Liang Xiao. Liang Xiao patted his hand covered in soil. "What are the gains in this battle?"
When talking about the war, Wei Qing's expression changed, adding a little confidence and calmness. "You are right, the Huns are actually not that scary. As long as there are enough war horses, we can quickly recover the Qin border. However," he paused, "It is easy to defeat the Huns, but it is difficult to eliminate the roots. Once the Huns escape into the depths of the desert, it is not so easy for us to pursue them."
"Slay the weeds and eliminate the roots" Liang Xiao shook his head. "This is not a matter of one or two days, nor a matter of one or two years. Long-term plans must be made. However, as long as they can seize Yinshan and drive the Huns to the north of the desert, they will have no threat."
Wei Qing nodded. "Yes, I think so too, Your Majesty has this plan. However, the current dispute is to take Hexi first, and Yinshan first."
Liang Xiao was stunned for a moment, tilted his head, and glanced at Wei Qing. Wei Qing smiled awkwardly. "I think it's better to tell you."
Liang Xiao turned his eyes and thought for a while. "It would be better to seize Yinshan first. If you seize Yinshan, the gateway to the northern border will be in the hands of our army. The Xiongnu royal court will be severely weakened. Hexi, the main force of the Huns is lost and no storm can be caused for the time being. What I am worried about is not the Huns, but the Qiang people. Mei Shaoru has been there for so long and has no news back. I don't know whether it is good or bad."
"It should be no problem. A few days ago, the court received his memorial saying that he had passed the West Sea and was preparing to detect the way to the Western Regions."
Liang Xiao didn't say anything more. What he was most worried about now was Mei Gao. Mei Gao was his idea to go to the Qiangzhong. Without the Han army in Yaowu in Hexi, he was not sure whether the Qiang people would take the Han people seriously. Now that he knew that Mei Gao was fine, he felt relieved.
"Bo Ming, I think I should tell you something."
"What's up"
“There may be something in the southeast.”
"southeast"
"Minyue."
Liang Xiao was shocked and suddenly remembered something. In the original history, he conquered Fujian and Yue twice. Although he did not fight twice, before the Han Dynasty launched a large-scale army and completely dealt with Nanyue, these Yue tribes were not very stable. They either fought each other or harassed the Han Dynasty's borders. Moving Dong'ou to Jianghuai has proved to be a foolproof move. The chronic disease in the southeast has not been eliminated, and it will be a matter of time before something happens.
"What happened to Minyue"
"The General Zheng had a letter from his family, saying that Yu Shan had close contacts with Nanyue and had the intention of being unjust. He advised the King of Minyue to be careful of Yu Shan, but was arranged by the King of Minyue to go to the old place of Dongou. Bo Ming, I am worried that something might happen in the south when the court's attention is focused on the northern border."
Liang Xiao pondered for a long time. "What plans does the court have?"
"The rebellion of Minyue has not been revealed, and the court cannot do anything to avoid changes. However, once there is a change, Your Majesty needs to send trustworthy people to guard Kuaiji and support them at any time. I want to."
Liang Xiao was surprised. "You don't want to recommend me to go?"
Wei Qing looked at Liang Xiao in surprise. "You don't want to"
"Nonsense, of course I don't want to." Liang Xiao said angrily: "I'm busy getting married and having children, so how can I leave if I say it. There are so many people in the court, why do you have to go?" He waved his hand hard without leaving any room. "Don't go"
Wei Qing was speechless. He thought about it and asked again: "Do you think the south is humid and not good for the cavalry to run, not as refreshing as on the grassland?"
"Die it quickly." Liang Xiao glared at Wei Qing. "I don't go to the war place in the south or north." He stood up and stomped the land under his feet. "The prince of Chang'an City is not a hundred, but also eighty. He has a higher title than me and a large number of people with a fief than me. Why do you want me to enjoy the blessings of so many years? It's time to do your best to let me enjoy two days of aristocratic life with money and leisure, and fighting cocks and dogs."
After saying that, Liang Xiao stretched out his hand and pointed at Wei Qing. "Zhongqing, I appreciate your kindness. But if you dare to recommend me in front of the emperor, I will break up with you."
Wei Qing was speechless. He felt that he was owed Liang Xiao. He thought for a long time before he came up with this way to compensate Liang Xiao. Unexpectedly, Liang Xiao refused as soon as he opened his mouth. He looked at Liang Xiao, wondering whether Liang Xiao really wanted to live a peaceful life or was angry.
"That, Bo Ming"
"Okay, okay." Liang Xiao smiled and said, "Zhongqing, I understand what you mean. Don't you just feel that you owe me this way? If you give me the 300 acres of fertile land that Your Majesty rewards you, we will clear up both of you."
Wei Qing scratched his head and said for a long time: "Okay. In addition to the three hundred acres of land, all the money rewarded by His Majesty will be given to you."
"I don't need a thousand gold coins." Liang Xiao laughed and said, "I have been coveting the fertile fields next to the 300 Wei River for a long time. Now I am eating more and more, and there is no surplus grain at home. If I want to grow vegetables, I must occupy a part of the land. With these 300 acres of fertile fields, I will be much more abundant. Don't worry, I won't lose money to you. I will take care of your family's food in the future."
Wei Qing stared at Liang Xiao and looked again and again, but still couldn't figure out whether Liang Xiao was true or not. However, when the three hundred acres of fertile land were sent out, his guilt finally faded. He could finally discuss the date of marriage with Liang Xiao. Liang Xiao listened to his plan and agreed immediately.
"No problem. Later, you go back to the city with me and report this to my master. By the way, Zheng's family is in Minyue, which is too far away. Since the master lives in my house, please treat my home as her mother's house."
"This is great." Wei Qing was overjoyed.
