Han Shizu

Chapter 1919

The dusk in spring is also bright and the scenery is beautiful. Luoyang shrouded in soft light is like a fairy palace. Wang Yansheng has never appreciated the beauty and elegance of this scene, but today he stays in the corner pavilion in the back garden of the mansion, leaning on the railing and looking up. , but with extra concentration and patience, until the last ray of light dissipated in the sky, and the night fell on the world.

"Father, there are people coming from the palace!" A middle-aged man with a rough face, somewhat similar to Wang Yansheng, walked quietly to the front of the pavilion and whispered that it was his eldest son Wang Yinghao.

"Oh? This is a strange thing. What day is it today, and there are people from the palace?" Wang Yansheng asked in surprise when he heard this.

Among the meritorious officials, Wang Yansheng's qualifications and merits are there, so the treatment he can enjoy is naturally very high. In addition to the stipulations in the knight system, there are also some unwritten preferential treatment, such as gifts from the emperor. For big family matters, Emperor Liu will more or less spend a sum of money from his own money to buy gifts and rewards, or at least send representatives to the government to express himself. Wang Yansheng is obviously qualified.

"Father, today is March [-]th, not a special day!" Wang Yinghao replied.

"Who is here? How many grades of eunuchs? Is there an edict?"

"The envoy of the imperial city, Wang Jien, didn't say anything."

Wang Yansheng was silent all of a sudden, and his dry eyelids even twitched a few times. If Wang Jien came to the door in the tenth year of Qianyou, it could be regarded as the emperor's care, but this is the 26th year of Kaibao. Like Wang Yansheng, he didn't dare to be too optimistic.

For the nobles and bureaucrats of the big man, Wang Jien's reputation is really not very good. He is a hungry wolf, an old dog who can bring his dogs and grandchildren up if he smells feces.Although there was no entanglement, or even any conflict of interest, due to the influence of the general environment, Wang Yansheng still called Wang Jien a dog in private.

"Lead him to the hall, let him wait, I'll go later!" Wang Yansheng ordered in a bad tone.

"This..." Hearing this, Wang Yinghao showed hesitation, glanced at his old father, and still couldn't help reminding: "After all, Wang Jien is an envoy of the imperial city, with a lowly position, and he is directly trusted by His Majesty, if you neglect him"

"Then, in your opinion, what should I do? I want this old man to open the door of the mansion, to welcome an eunuch, who is just a dog beside His Majesty, does he have the qualifications?" Wang Yansheng angrily interrupted Wang Yinghao, He couldn't help shivering in fright.

Seeing his cowardly and unbearable appearance, Wang Yansheng's blood pressure soared, and his anger was almost out of control.The children of other people can join the army in their teens, serve in the battlefield in their twenties, become generals in their 30s, and there are all knighted. However, my eldest son, who is in his 40s, can only stay in the public domain. Cheating on the old in the house, doing some procrastinating things, and talking about some mother-in-law and mother-in-law.

"roll!"

"Father calm down, take care of your health, my son will go right away!" Seeing that Wang Yansheng was annoyed again, Wang Yinghao didn't dare to talk anymore, he hurriedly responded, turned and left in a hurry.

When he left, Wang Yansheng couldn't help sighing. He had three sons in total, all of whom were useless, and the only eldest son who could barely see him had such cowardly virtues. It's all because of Wang Yansheng's mental strength.

He looked up at the sky, and before he knew it, the sky was already pitch black, and there were a few stars dotted in different directions on the night. He couldn't understand the mystery and doorway in the stars, but he was restless all day long. Let him connect Wang Jien, a stray dog, to his door.

In the main hall of the mansion, accompanied by Wang Yinghao, with his head bowed deeply, Wang Yansheng stood there in a daze, with a very serious expression on his face. Naturally, Wang Jien was the most relaxed. Looking at Wang Yansheng who was stupefied, he smiled lightly and said, "Mr. Wang, what the officials say is next." It has been brought verbatim, how to deal with yourself, please consider it. I will go back and report, but what do you need to report to the next generation?"

Hearing this, Wang Yansheng came back to his senses, and looked deeply at Wang Jien. He was obviously an old man in his seventies, but his eyes were clearly murderous and oppressive. Even looking at Wang Jien felt a little uncomfortable, so he subconsciously looked away.

The corners of his eyes twitched a few times, Wang Yansheng tried his best to calm down, and said lightly: "Please report back to Your Majesty, just tell me that I have nothing to say! No!"

Seeing this, Wang Yansheng was still so arrogant, Wang Jien couldn't help being annoyed, anger flashed in his eyes, but he quickly restrained himself, and secretly sneered, thinking that he was the general who was treated leniently by the officials?There is a limit to the government's tolerance!
With a soft snort, Wang Jien walked away, while Wang Yansheng ignored him, took two steps back slowly, sat down in the chair, picked up the water glass, his hands were already trembling unconsciously.

Wang Yinghao beside him became even more flustered, and asked with a worried face: "Father, what is the meaning of His Majesty's questioning by the Imperial City envoy? Could it be?"

Hearing this, Wang Yansheng raised his eyes to meet the worried gaze of the eldest son, this time he didn't reprimand him, and after thinking for a moment, the old man showed a smile on his face, hehe said: "It's nothing serious! Your Majesty knows the old man's temper, so he just scolded him." !"

Although Wang Yinghao was slow, he was not stupid. He still had a basic sense of observation. At least for his old father who had been serving him for decades, Wang Yansheng's forced composure still didn't hide it from him.

While worrying, Wang Yansheng suddenly heard, "How are you preparing for the trip to Nanyang?"

He was taken aback by this sudden turn, but when he mentioned this, Wang Yinghao showed a bitter expression, and said: "The manpower is almost organized, and we are still a little bit ready to go!"

"How many people and who are they?"

Wang Yinghao: "The 32 people are all strong and strong people selected from clan relatives, tribal acquaintances, and neighbors and tenants!"

"Less! At least 300 people!" Hearing this, Wang Yansheng immediately frowned, ordered, and then stared at Wang Yinghao: "You also go along, you lead the team!"

Hearing this order, Wang Yinghao was stunned and looked at his father blankly. Seeing that he was not joking, he was upset, so he couldn't help but choked up and said, "What did my son do wrong? You want to drive me overseas. If the sons are all gone, who will take care of them, and how filial they will be!"

Obviously, Wang Yinghao is unwilling to go to Nanyang to work hard. Apart from being afraid of hardships and coveting the prosperity of central Beijing, he also cares about Wang Yansheng.It's not just because of filial piety, but because Wang Yansheng is already seventy years old, and his health is not looking good, and there is no telling when there will be a mistake. If he is not around at that time, what should we do if there is a twists and turns in the succession of the title.What's more, overseas is really not a good place, full of risks, how can it be safe to stay in China and wait for the inheritance of Juelu's family business to be secure.

Although Wang Yansheng is old, he can still see some things clearly. He is naturally aware of this son's thoughts. This is the eldest son he can still see. Looking at his dodging eyes, Wang Yansheng suddenly feels a little chilly. This is the descendant that he protected.
Hu father and dog son, this is probably Wang Yansheng's biggest regret in his life.

"Cry! Cry!" That violent temper could not be changed after all, Wang Yansheng finally got angry: "I have to cry for mourning, after I die!

Do you think this old man doesn't know about your little thoughts, and if you offend His Majesty now, if you don't work hard now, you will be able to please him in the future?This is a simple truth, the old man who doesn't read understands it, but you who read sage books don't understand? "

Apparently, Wang Yansheng also realized the seriousness of the matter, and wanted to redeem it through some performances, but the descendants who could be relied on seemed not to be up to date
