Datang Imperial Physician

Chapter 137 The Story at the Gate of the Capital (Revised)

Uh... there is a small bug, please fix it!
========================
Wei Chi shook his head: "I know, it's Lord Hou Junji, but has he returned from the expedition?"

In Wei Jia's impression, Helan Chushi, the dead ghost, once showed off to him.

"I'm back, I've been back for several days. With a lot of military exploits."

came back? !Wei Jia thought about the arrogant and domineering Helan Chushi who had been killed by His Majesty Li Er, who instigated the prince to steal cattle from his Zhuangzi.

Coughing, and looking at Mr. Qin, still smiling, there was nothing unusual, Wei Chi said: "Has the commander of the army returned to court? My son is not very clear."

Mr. Qin stroked his beard and said calmly.Wei Chi frowned, the matter of stealing the cattle thief, this guy was very consciously silent, and sternly told everyone present at that time to forget about it if they wanted to die.Everyone cherishes life very much, and no one talks nonsense.

Externally, His Majesty Li Er announced that Prince Chengqian had injured his foot while riding a horse, but Helan Chushi was dead and beaten to death alive!Although the connection among them is not very clear, everyone can guess it more or less related to the fact that His Majesty Li Er was able to kill Helan Chushi in a rage.

Helan Chushi was a victim of His Majesty Li Er's wrath.Perhaps, His Majesty Li Er was wise and mighty, and guessed the devious reason why Prince Chengqian went to Weijia Village to steal cattle.What is the reason, only His Majesty Li Er knows in his heart, and Wei Chi can't guess.

Wei Chi smiled faintly, and said: "It turns out that Lord Hou Junji, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, has returned, but my nephew didn't know."

Old Master Qin said: "On the day Helan Chushi was executed with a cane, when His Majesty asked He Lan's family to carry the body, he scolded him harshly, blaming Helan Chushi for corrupting the crown prince, he deserves death!"

This Wei Chi has never heard of it, but now he is more concerned about other things: "Then, after Lord Hou returns to the court, there is no doubt about it?"

"Except for the day of returning to court, after meeting His Majesty at the court meeting, Hou Junji has not had the opportunity to meet His Majesty yet. There will be a celebration banquet tomorrow. However, these few days, he has been asking people everywhere to inquire about the cause of Helan Chushi's death."

Wei Chi was very calm, saluted, and said: "Thank you Yifu for reminding me, the child knows it well, please rest assured."

Mr. Qin waved his hands and said: "Our family is a family of military generals, and we don't have as many rules as literati and rotten scholars. If you do so many rituals in the future, be careful that I will kick you! As long as there are a few of us old guys around, come and see. Who else in this Great Tang would dare to bully you!"

Wei Jia is very grateful. In this strange age, there is a adoptive father who treats him sincerely and loves him like his own son. Wei Jia has nothing to say, and can only repay his heart with his heart.

Mr. Qin, he is quite a nice person. At home, he would occasionally scold Brother Qin Meng and Wei Jia, but when he went out, he would definitely protect his weaknesses.The three brothers, whoever was bullied, the first thing they shouted was to find their way back!Hooliganism is worse than Cheng Zhijie's, but it's just that he is usually bored and only explodes at critical moments, which seems more scary.

Wei Chi kept this matter in mind and paid attention to it, but he didn't worry too much. Soldiers came to block him, water came to cover him, and panic was the last thing to do.Sometimes, this guy also admired his own rough nerves. The more critical the moment, the less nervous he was. After working as a surgeon for a long time, composure became an instinctive reaction.

It was almost dark when returning home from the Qin mansion, only Dahu came with him, and old master Qin sent Qin Meng to escort him.When father and son are together, there is no one who does not drink. Wei Zhi has a poor capacity for alcohol, a little drunk, his face is red, and his head is very serious.

I met Cheng Ming on the road, greeted him in a daze, and then heard Qin Meng say, "Cheng Mingzi, why are you still on business? When did you become so diligent?"

Cheng Ming smiled wryly and said: "There is no way, my father ordered me to be more diligent recently, or I will go home and clean me up! For the safety of my life, we can only follow suit."

Although a little dizzy, but the consciousness is still clear, Wei Jia smiled, his heart warmed, well, for the sake of taking care of him, half of the grievances of being bullied by Cheng Zhijie in the past are temporarily canceled, and the other half will be left for inspection. , To the locust army, you can't be too kind, being kind to them is cruel to yourself.

Cheng Ming and Qin Meng chatted a few words, and laughed at Wei Jia: "Wei Laosi, how come your drinking capacity is not good at all? You are useless!"

Wei Chi snorted, and said: "Don't be arrogant, wait, in two days, when my family's wine is brewed, I will see how much you can drink! Second brother, let's go, don't bother with this shit !"

Cheng Ming smiled boldly, and said, "Okay! I'll just wait! I want to see what's different about your wine!"

Cheng Ming was still on patrol, so after chatting for a few words, he took the man away.Wei Chi and Qin Meng continued to walk, and when they reached the city gate, a group of people just returned to the city, riding tall horses, and guards guarding a luxurious carriage. Judging by their posture, they were not small officials.

Wei Jia and Qin Meng, Wei Jia has the position of a fourth-rank official, and Qin Meng has a slack job. The two of them are young and have a younger generation. They are incomparable with these old guys in Beijing. , the two obediently gave way and let others come in first.

The first rider glanced at Wei Jia and Qin Meng. For some reason, he stopped suddenly, raised his head to the side of a dark and strong military officer behind him, and whispered something in his ear, that military officer, sharp Looking towards Wei Jia and the others, they saw that Dahu and Qin Meng had put their hands on the handle of the knife, staring at the man defensively, Qin Meng whispered to Wei Jia: "It's a coincidence today, it's actually here We met here, fourth child, recognize someone, he is Hou Junji!"

Wei Chi shook his head, pulled himself together, and met the man's gaze.The man's gaze seemed to pierce into his heart, and Wei Jia wanted to imitate the person in a certain movie he had seen. He yelled "murderous", and then drew his knife to guard against it.

Before the two of them could react, Hou Junji spoke over there: "Is it Qin Meng from the Qin family? What's the matter? Don't you know this general?"

Qin Meng jumped off his horse, pulled Wei Jia, and saluted very formally: "My nephew Qin Meng (Wei Jia) pays his respects to General Hou, the general is polite!"

Hou Junji sat high on the horse, and returned a salute lightly, sizing up Wei Jia with poisonous snake-like eyes, and asked slowly: "Qin Meng, the person next to you is Wei Jiawei, the adopted son of old General Shubao. Ziyue?"

Wei Chi smiled lightly, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "It is my nephew, who has heard many heroic deeds of the general, and now I can see the general with my own eyes, my nephew is very honored."

"It's easy to talk about. This general is also your nephew Jiuwen Xian. I only heard that the old general Shubao has adopted a capable adopted son. This general is away leading the army and has never been able to see him. Today I finally saw him. It's not bad."

Hou Junji laughed, that smile, in Wei Jia's opinion, wanted to ask him if he had tooth decay or a toothache.
