Volume 2 Reverse Chaoge 135 Who will go to Haojing?
Song of Chao, the son and his mansion.
Under the guidance of his servants, Wei Duoyou walked into the main hall of the backyard. Young Master He had been waiting here for a long time. When he saw him coming, he stood up to greet him: "Brother Duoyou, you have been back for many days, and I only have time to chat with you today."
, it’s really a mistake to make peace with.”
Faced with his enthusiasm, Wei Duoyou just responded respectfully: "Master, what are you talking about? Duoyou is just a disciple of the master, so what's the point? I really deserve to be treated so favorably by the master!"
Young Master He was stunned. In the past, Wei Duoyou and he had always been on the same page, getting along with each other. When did they become so polite and polite? He felt sad for a while, and blurted out involuntarily: "Brother Duoyou would never talk to me like this before.
It seems like you are really separated from me?"
Wei Duoyou didn't know what to say, and the two of them were speechless for a moment. Wei He sighed softly: "Actually, I know that my eldest brother is still blaming me for the slippery ground. This is the fact, and I have nothing to do with it."
Very easy to explain. On that day, Uncle Yu said that Brother Dao might do something bad for me, and my mother and wife made such an arrangement just to be sure. I saw that Uncle Yu left his own son as my substitute, and my heart
I just thought of luck, but unexpectedly, all this happened so tragically. Brother Duoyou is right to blame me, and I have nothing to say."
He bowed deeply to Kui Duoyou and said, "I apologize to my eldest brother."
"Young Master, why do you need to be so polite? Duoyou is an unlucky person, and this is his destiny." Kui Duoyou helped him up, with a self-deprecating smile on his face: "Wherever I go, disaster will happen. Aren't you afraid, Master?"
Wei He was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered something, and said hurriedly: "I haven't informed my brother yet, but there is news from the grassland."
Wei Duoyou felt anxious and asked urgently: "What's wrong?"
"The daughter of King Wei Rong has been married to King Wu Ending as a concubine, and Wei Nu has been appointed as the new king. Now they are intensifying their military training. It seems that the two armies will join forces to move south in a large scale in the near future, which will not be conducive to our defense of the country."
"Really?" Wei Duoyou murmured, thinking to himself: He abandoned his cousin in times of crisis, so how could he have the face to accuse Yu Weihe now? When he thought about it, he felt relieved.
Having said this, the awkward atmosphere just now was relieved. Wei He was waiting to say something more when he suddenly saw Gongsun Yu running from a distance. He didn't even have time to wipe the sweat on his head, so he hurriedly saluted: "Master, Madam
We summon you urgently and enter the palace quickly!"
Seeing him in such a hurry, Wei He felt puzzled: "What happened?"
"Well," Gongsun Yu knelt down and said, "Hao Jing has sent an obituary. The king------the king has passed away!"
"What?" Wei He and Wei Duoyou looked at each other, both surprised and frightened.
The young master and his wife entered the palace in a hurry. Their mother, Mrs. Li, had already cleared away the rest of the people, leaving only Gongsun Yu sitting at the table. The two of them had been waiting for him for nearly an hour.
Seeing him coming, Gongsun Yu remained calm and composed, but Mrs. Ke Li was not calm enough. Before he could finish greeting her, she left the table and took her son with her, with a look of excitement on her face: "This is great.
As soon as the man heard the news, he immediately summoned Doctor Shi into the palace. The two of them have been discussing until now, but they still can't come up with an idea. Huh! No matter who is sent, this is your chance, my son."
"Don't you plan to go to Haojing in person?" Wei He was a little hesitant. As a new prince of Wei and a prince with the surname Ji, it would be really unjustifiable if he didn't even attend the funeral of Emperor Zhou in person!
"This is Madam's clever plan." Gongsun Yu stood up respectfully: "If Marquis Wei is afraid of Madam and Young Master, and sends Doctor Shi to go, it will naturally be a great disrespect to the Zhou royal family; if he personally Going forward, the country is empty, which naturally gives the young master an opportunity to establish his prestige."
"But, what if my brother sends me there?" Wei He felt a little trembling in his heart when he thought of Wei Duoyou being robbed and killed in Huadi.
Mrs. Li sneered: "Don't worry, my son, you know that you have put a lot of thought into being your mother these days. Now rumors are spreading in Chaoge City. Everyone says that Marquis Wei wants to eradicate my mother and son. People's words are terrible, I forgive him for not dare to do it. This is a dangerous move. What's more, my son is the prince's companion, and now that the prince has succeeded, can he ignore this?"
Speaking of this, Mrs. Li proudly remembered the move she had made in advance. She slowly raised her head and said, "In my opinion, he will definitely go to Haojing in person. When he gets to the royal city, hey, he will be the one to feel better." That’s it.”
Wei He heard something in his mother's words and asked doubtfully: "Could it be that mother also has arrangements in Haojing?"
Mrs. Li quickly exchanged glances with Gongsun Yu and replied: "That's all, it doesn't hurt to tell you. On the second day after you returned to Chaoge, I compiled two letters and sent them to the East Palace and Duke Zhao's Mansion respectively. Counting the days, it will be delivered soon. The prince and my son are like brothers. I heard that Duke Zhao had also befriended Wei Duoyou a long time ago and told them that if they knew about the good deeds Wei Yu did in Huadi, they would definitely not do anything. Give him the good fruit to eat!"
As she was talking, for some reason, Mrs. Li suddenly changed her train of thought and murmured: "When the funeral ceremony is over, the prince will officially ascend the throne. The Duke of Zhou has declined, and Duke Zhao is in charge of the country's affairs. The queen still has the foresight to put the king in charge early. The woman with my surname is placed in Zhaogong Mansion and the East Palace, and no one else will even think about it. She is worthy of being the daughter of Jing Ji, and she is very capable------"
Unfortunately, Wei He didn't think so. As soon as he heard that his mother had sent a letter to Haojing, he suddenly looked sad: "Mother, why did you take it upon yourself to tell His Highness the Crown Prince and Duke Zhao about this matter? Why didn't you discuss it with me?"
Gongsun Yu felt strange: "Sir, is there anything wrong with this?"
"No, no - it's just that the prince and I have a very close friendship. I - - it's my own business, and I don't want to use his hand to suppress my brother. I'm sorry for Duoyou's slippage this time. Brother, I------I don’t want to take advantage of my friends anymore!”
"What do you know?" Mrs. Li was displeased: "Your eldest brother wants to kill you, are you afraid that others will know? As a mother, you just tell the truth, why should you not use it? It sounds so ugly. Do you want to defend yourself? Yu lived happily in Haojing, established his throne in front of the princes of the world, received the reward from the new king, and returned to Chaoge in a swaggering way. Only then can he be worthy of his friends? What do children know? "
Gongsun Yu hurriedly smoothed things over: "Madam, please calm down. The young master is kind and sincere to others. This is his benefit. It is precisely because of this that he has won the trust of His Majesty the Crown Prince, right? When he grows up and experiences some things, he will naturally understand what Madam means." Painful."
Madam Li's face turned pale and she asked, "Do you think Wei Yu will go to Haojing in person?"
"Nine percent will go in person. If he refuses to go, it will not only be disrespectful, but also deeply offend the new king. Either way, it will be beneficial to the young master."
Sure enough, as soon as they met in the meeting hall of the main hall of Wei Palace, Shijiao proposed that the young master Wei He go to Haojing instead of his elder brother. Wei Yu refused without thinking. In fact, he didn't want to do this and sent Wei He By sending an envoy to Haojing, he could not only relieve Mrs. Li's troubles, but also easily gain the new king's understanding by virtue of his relationship with the prince. But it didn't work!
First there was Mrs. Li's performance at the funeral of the late Marquis, and then Gongsun Yu's family held a funeral for the eldest son of the concubine with great fanfare. This clearly told everyone in Chaoge that their mother and son were a thorn in the side of the new Marquis. , intending to get rid of it quickly. At this moment, if he forcibly sends guards and envoys, rumors will fly all over the sky, and he wonders what trouble the difficult stepmother will make? Thinking about it, Wei Yu only felt a headache.
"Then, let me go as an envoy to Haojing. The prince and Duke Zhao will be blamed, and I will apologize again and again, that's it." Shi Jiao had no choice but to retreat and do the next best thing: "If the prince leaves the country at this time, then your wife will definitely meet If something goes wrong, I'm afraid I won't be able to control the situation!"
"Why don't I know this? However, with the title of my legitimate mother in front of me, I am in a dilemma!" Wei Yu looked helpless. For the first time, he felt that he would not hesitate to take on the throne that he gained by killing his brother and forcing his mother's reputation. In fact, the taste was not that good. Er: "But after thinking about it carefully, I can only go to Haojing by myself this time!"
"Why is this, Lord? Could it be ------" Shijiao asked tentatively.
Wei Yu sighed: "You know, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a very good personal relationship with his younger brother Wei He. The two of them slept together in the East Palace. Not to mention that Kui Duoyou and Zhao Zi Mu have long been sworn sworn brothers. I am only worried that slipping will happen." The news about the land has already reached Haojing. If I don't go to Haojing in person, I'm afraid the new king and Duke Zhao will have more reasons to embarrass me and embarrass our country. As a new prince, I will not attend the funeral ceremony of the Yi Kingdom. What kind of status does it have in a big country with the surname Ji? I won’t be able to raise my head when meeting other princes from the Central Plains in the future. This time, I have to go in person!"
Speaking of this, Shijiao also knew that persuasion was useless: "In this case, you have to take precautions. If your wife imitates the slippery ground and sets an ambush on the road, what should you do? You have to take precautions! "
Wei Yu thought about it, and it was the same. He pondered for a moment and said, "In this case, we will take away three thousand of Chaoge's defenders and use them as guards on the road."
Shijiao held up his palm and praised: "This is very wonderful. Weakening Chaoge's defenders can also prevent your wife from inciting them, and I can feel more at ease."
In the harem, a young chamberlain fell to the ground and whispered. Mrs. Li smiled slightly and nodded to let him go down to receive the reward. She turned to Gongsun Yu and said, "As expected, Wei Yu decided to go to Haojing in person. In this way, we We should make good use of this time and make good plans for He'er."
"No! Everything is as expected."
It is the spring plowing season, and there is a busy scene in the fields in the northern border of Weiguo. Farmers lead their cattle, wave rope whips, and hold rakes in their hands. They are busy plowing the land frozen in winter so that they can sow this year's crops. of crop seeds. Although it was just the beginning of spring, the men started plowing at dawn, and by sunrise they were sweating profusely.
Suddenly, the farmers felt the ground beneath their feet shaking slightly, and the cattle let out an alert "moo" sound.
