Datang Imperial Physician

Chapter 328 People Need to Think Twice Before Acting

"National interests are no small matter?!"

His Majesty Li Er read Wei Jia's casual words lightly, his eyes lit up, and he praised: "Okay, very good! Have you heard what Wei Jia said? National interests are no small matter. From now on, everyone You should always keep it in your heart, remind yourself at all times, never lose it and never forget it."

"Yes."

All the ministers saluted quickly.Wei Jia was sweating profusely in his heart, and accidentally threw out another proverb. He really didn't mean it, but just said it by the way, Emei tofu.

After being told by Wei Jia, of course, it is impossible for him to be transferred to the Ministry of Household Affairs.His Majesty Li Er also figured it out, maybe this kid is not playing tricks, but telling the truth.Thinking carefully about what this guy did after returning to the Tang Dynasty, if he hadn't been soft-hearted, how could he have foolishly meddled in royal affairs, and others were afraid to avoid it.Thinking of Wei Chi's past benefits, His Majesty Li Er gave up on that, and stopped talking about transferring him to the household department, and he loved that guy a lot.

Wei Jia knows his own affairs, so it is not a problem to find a small official in an idle department, but if he goes to a key department to serve as an official with real power, it means participating in the political struggle of the imperial court. Those ministers, who is not a well-tested old fox, he went like this, probably only as cannon fodder, it's better to be quiet, he still wants to watch his son marry a wife, and looks forward to having a grandson in the future.The medical school sacrifice wine is also a high-ranking official, anyway, he is also a third-rank official.Wei Chi was very satisfied.

There is no problem with the medical school, and the focus of political discussion has shifted to other affairs of the army. Wei Jia understands these things he doesn't understand, and he doesn't interrupt. He just listens with his ears up. OKIn other words, I have never seen what it was like to go to war in ancient times. Now, after listening to the discussions of the ministers, I realized that there are still many etiquette and rules.Sacrifice is a major national event. There are sacrifices during the New Year and festivals, weddings and funerals, and sacrifices are also required during this expedition. Hearing the rules and etiquette, Wei Chi found it quite novel.

After discussing politics, Wei Jia rubbed his eyes. This guy has a habit of dozing off when he gets sick. He sat there for a long time. If it wasn't for what he was talking about, he would have fallen asleep long ago. .Rubbing his eyes as he walked, Wei Chi suddenly realized that Wei Zheng was walking in front of him. He was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly remembered the plan he had planned during the autumn hunting, so he rushed up and said, "Master Wei, please stay."

Wei Zheng stopped in his tracks, with a serious face and a rare smile, he said, "Ziyue called me, what's your business?"

It seemed a bit abrupt to call someone suddenly, Wei Jia was a little embarrassed, and said, "I don't know if Mr. Wei is free, but the weather is nice today, how about we go out for a drink?"

Wei Zheng looked up at the gray sky, with a half-smile, and said, "Is Ziyue looking for something to do with the old man? It's the same here."

This old-fashioned and sinister smelly old man!Wei Zhi hated his teeth itching, but he had no choice but to say: "It seems inconvenient here, it's cold, and my nephew is still sick, please ask Uncle Wei to take care of him."

Wei Zhi had a pitiful look on his face. Wei Zheng was from Qin Shubao's generation, so it's not an exaggeration to call him uncle.Wei Zheng smiled and said: "So, then the old man will disturb Ziyue for a meal, let's say yes first, the old man is penniless, Ziyue treats me."

Wei Chi sweated a little, and nodded hurriedly. Wei Zheng is a so-called upright official, and Yushitai seems to have no other source of income except for corruption and bribery.It seems that the upright officials these days, if they don't know how to run a business, their salary plus the family's land property, it seems that they can maintain their expenses, and their lives are better than ordinary people. They don't go hungry, but they are luxurious and comfortable. , that is far from enough.

The two left the palace together. After Wei Zheng asked Wei Zheng what he meant, he went to the restaurant, entered the private room, and ordered a table of hot pot.Wei Zheng said: "This hot pot is really good. I occasionally buy the bottom ingredients that come back, and ask the kitchen to make it for eating."

Wei Chi smiled and said, "As long as Mr. Wei likes it, please use it. You're welcome."

Wei Zheng stirred the ingredients, looked at Wei Jia with an inexplicable expression, and said, "Although the food is tempting, I must first know why Ziyue called me here, otherwise, I'm afraid I won't feel at ease eating this meal."

Wei Chi scratched his head and said with a smile: "It's not an important matter, let alone asking Uncle Wei for help. Uncle Wei is upright and upright, and my nephew understands it in his heart. The reason why he called Uncle Wei is just to have a casual chat. It’s also enough to talk about the family life. Uncle Wei’s reputation of being upright and upright with His Majesty’s monarchs and ministers, his reputation spreads all over the world, and my nephew, a junior, admires my uncle’s demeanor and eats a simple meal. What special intentions do you have?”

This kid started calling him uncle again.Wei Zheng smiled, and stopped sticking to it. He started to eat, looking at his posture, he didn't look polite at all.Whoever said that old man Wei Zheng is old-fashioned, who will say that in the future, he immediately threw his shoes on!Ya is just pretending.However, thinking about old man Wei's experience, he can also understand his intentions.

I think Wei Zheng started as a counselor at Li Jiancheng, the king of interest, and he came up with a lot of good ideas for Li Jiancheng, and even suggested to Li Jiancheng to kill the former His Royal Highness King Qin and now His Majesty Li Er.It's just that guy Li Jiancheng didn't listen to him all, otherwise, how could he end up in such a tragic end.It was later accepted by His Majesty Li Er.Because of his embarrassing past, Wei Zheng wanted to be a loyal minister, but that would be useless. If he was a loyal minister, he would be slapping himself in the face, and he has no position at all.Therefore, Wei Zheng chose to be a direct minister, and he gained his current reputation.

Wei Zheng is a scholar, a scholar who is completely different from Kong Yingda, and what he wants in his heart is completely different from that of Kong Yingda. Thinking about his actions, he can probably guess what he wants in his heart, but Wei Zhi has never understood why so How can a shrewd person do something that looks stupid?After dealing with His Majesty Li Er for so many years, can't he still understand His Majesty's temper?The mystery of history!

Accompanying Wei Zheng to eat a hot pot meal, seeing that Wei Zheng put down his chopsticks when he was full, Wei Chi also put down his chopsticks, and said with a smile: "Uncle Wei, if you are full, can you take the time to listen to my little nephew say something about homework?" gone?"

Wei Zheng laughed loudly, and said: "This old man has long known that eating you is not an easy task, so tell me, what do you want to say?"

Wei Chi chuckled, his skin thickened again now.Scratching his head, thinking about it, he simply said, "Uncle Wei, my nephew heard a rumor, after much deliberation, it's better to listen to it with uncle."

Wei Zheng wondered, "What kind of rumors made Ziyue make such a decision?"

Wei Chi said: "My nephew heard that my uncle had recorded his remonstrance to His Majesty, and showed it to Master Chu Suiliang in private. My nephew has always admired Uncle Wei's character, and he didn't want my uncle to be hurt by a villain. , Make up your own mind, invite uncle to have a small dinner, my nephew is reckless, young and ignorant, please forgive me."

Wei Zheng was noncommittal, just smiled wryly, and said, "Thank you Ziyue, as the saying goes, there is no wall that is impenetrable to the wind, it seems that it is true, sincerely do not deceive me."

Wei Chi smiled naively and stopped talking.Wei Zheng settled down, looked at Wei Chi meaningfully, and said, "As a reward for Ziyue's notification of this matter, I will ask your adoptive father to hit you with thirty sticks. Farewell."

After all, he got up and left gracefully, leaving Wei Chi sitting alone, gnashing his teeth, the smelly old man, who kindly persuaded him, actually repaid him like this!black!It's too dark!
Wei Chi gritted his teeth and left the restaurant, and returned home with an angry expression on his face, not to mention how depressed he was.Xie Jiu was surprised and asked, "What's wrong? Who made you angry?"

After Wei Chi finished talking about the matter, he snorted angrily and said, "Madam, tell me, is your kindness unrewarded? Old man Wei Zheng, it doesn't matter if he is pushed to the tombstone or whipped to death in the future. I'm in love!"

Xie Jiu ignored his angry words, frowned in thought, and said: "I agree that you should be hit with thirty sticks!"

"... Ma'am, why do you agree? We're from your family, okay?" Wei Jia couldn't laugh or cry.Xie Jiu rolled his eyes at him, and said: "You are indeed reckless today. But... I was reckless once, and we are even!"

"Uh... how to say?"

"I recklessly participated in the treatment of the queen. Although the result was good, it was willful after all. As for Wei Zheng's matter, you were reckless. The result is still unknown, but judging from Wei Zheng's words, he Thank you for protecting you."

"Still do not understand!"

Wei Chi was honest and shook his head directly.Xie Jiu smiled wryly, and said angrily, "Do you know the reason why Wei Zheng was pushed off the tombstone in history?"

Wei Chi nodded, and said: "It's just a half-knowledge. It seems that because someone told Taizong that Wei Zheng had told the historian Chu Suiliang privately, Taizong felt that he had lost face, so he whipped him to vent his anger."

Xie Jiu touched his forehead and sighed: "Where did you read the unofficial history?"

Wei Chi was stunned: "What unofficial history, is this official history? Uh... Is there any secret? Come, madam, tell me, I like listening to stories the most, especially historical stories."

"You must be poor!" Xie Jiu gave Wei Jia a white look, and said, "I have read the materials in my mother's study, does Chen Yinke know?"

Wei Jia shook his head honestly, confidently: "I don't know, if you ask who is Karl Landsteiner, then I can still tell you who Chen Yinke is, I don't want to kill sheep!"

Xie Jiu said: "To put it simply, he is a very famous historian. As for why Taizong hated Wei Zheng in history and pushed down Wei Zheng's tombstone after his death, Mr. Chen thinks that it is not only because of the rumor you said, but Because Wei Zheng violated Taizong's taboo."

Wei Chi was very open-minded and eager to learn: "Madam, please advise."

Xie Jiu said: "Wei Zheng was born neither from Shandong nobles, nor from Guanlong nobles, nor from Shandong warriors. Therefore, the task Taizong entrusted to Wei Zheng was to monitor the Shandong nobles and the Guanlong Group for the purpose of splitting up and manipulating various political groups to achieve Some political tricks. However, before Wei Zheng was alive, he had recommended two people to Emperor Taizong—Du Zhenglun and Hou Junji, saying that they were talented prime ministers.”

Wei Jia rubbed his chin and said: "These two people, if I remember correctly, these two people are indeed very talented. Putting aside the problem of prejudice, these two guys are also competent as prime ministers."

Xie Jiu nodded in agreement, and said: "That's true, but the problem lies in the origins of these two people. Du Zhenglun is a Shandong nobleman, and Hou Junji is from the Guanlong noble group. You said, Taizong knew that Wei Zheng recommended these two people. , what would you think?"

Wei Chi took a deep breath and said, "Forming a party for personal gain! This is really a taboo for kings, especially since Wei Zheng was ordered to monitor these two groups. No wonder, no wonder. When you put it this way, I agree with Mr. Chen's point of view. It's a pity that I have traveled through time, otherwise I would go and read Mr. Chen's works."

Xie Jiu said: "Fortunately, these things were only exposed after Wei Zheng's death. Emperor Taizong pushed his tombstone in a fit of anger."

Wei Chi sighed: "No wonder, Taizong should have a lot of trust in Wei Zheng, otherwise he would not have let him monitor two such important groups. We don't know what Wei Zheng thought, but to Taizong, this is naked Betrayal. Fame and fortune, how many people in ancient and modern times have seen through it and sighed."

"Wei Zheng is also a human being, not a saint." Xie Jiu smiled and said, "Do you know why Wei Zheng said he wanted his adoptive father to beat you thirty sticks?"

Wei Jia scratched his head depressedly, but said simply: "Understood, I will take the punishment myself, and I will definitely remember it in the future, and stop talking nonsense! Even if it is the person I admire the most, I don't care about it. Madam, remember to give I have prepared the healing medicine, and I will go."

Xie Jiu touched his face, and said sympathetically, "Good boy! Go ahead. Remember to pretend to be pitiful, maybe father will be more lenient... Forget it, I'll go with you."

Wei Jia looked up to the sky and sighed: "I'm stupid, I came from Mars! I sent myself to the door to be beaten! Ma'am, tell me, did I have a fever this time and burned my head stupid?"

Xie Jiu just smiled and said: "It's okay, just bear with it. Wei Zheng owes you a favor no matter what. With his friendship with His Majesty and his talent, nothing will happen this time. You suffer Hit once, just pull yourself out. Be good, hold on."

Wei Chi drooped his head, feeling very depressed, such a big man would still be spanked, the more he lived, the more he looked back!This time we must have a long memory, and we will not care about this kind of thing in the future!
