The General Is As Urgent As Law

Zuo Xiang's mansion used to be very beautiful in the past, but now the people in the government have surrounded Zuo Xiang's mansion, and there are many curious people around.Wei Yuanting and Yuan Zhi stood in front of Zuo Xiang's mansion, they looked at each other, Wei Yuanting first said with a smile: "You, please first?"

Yuan Zhi also smiled slightly, and made a "please" gesture, which seemed much more sincere than Wei Yuanting, and said, "General Wei will invite first."

"You're being polite." Wei Yuanting was no longer polite, and stepped into the gate of Zuo Xiangfu.

Shang Xu sat in the main hall drinking tea leisurely, as if he was not affected by the ransacking of the house at all.The emperor sent these two people to search, the meaning is very obvious, no one can do anything fake, and can only let the soldiers rummage through the Zuoxiang Mansion.

Yuan Zhi stepped forward and said politely: "The emperor ordered a search, offending Prime Minister Zuo."

"No problem, no problem." Shang Xu waved his hand indifferently, stroked his beard again, and turned to Wei Yuanting, who was standing aside without saying a word: "I heard that the emperor wants General Wei to recommend someone to enter the palace to lead the imperial army. I don't know what the general thinks Is there anyone to choose?"

"I haven't considered it yet," Wei Yuanting said.

Shang Xu smiled slightly, and then said: "Please sit down, both of you, and trouble you to search carefully."

The three of them had nothing more to say, and sat and drank tea.

Wei Yuanting had been on good terms with Shang Xu in the past, but now that he failed to bring down Xue Changfeng, and made Shang Xu suffer instead, he felt bad.But Yuan Zhi next to him is different. In the current situation, the one who benefits the most must be Yuan Zhi.Originally, he and Shang Xu were ministers in the same dynasty, and their status was not equal. If Shang Xu fell, Yuan Zhi would be the only one.

It didn't take long before soldiers found valuable evidence, and handed over the seized evidence to Yuan Zhi and Wei Yuanting one after another.

The jade pendant presented by Xue Changfeng was indeed the same in Shang Xu's place. In addition, there was a thick stack of letters, which was very conspicuous.Yuan Zhi picked out a few letters, glanced at them roughly, and said to Shang Xu: "Mr. Zuo has always served the country and the people, and he didn't want to commit such things as treason in secret. I am really impressed by you..."

Wei Yuanting only read one, and then stopped reading.He glanced at Shang Xu, Shang Xu was still at ease, as if he didn't worry about what would happen to these letters after they were handed over to the emperor.

After thinking about it carefully, Wei Yuanting couldn't think of the key point.With Shang Xu's cautious words and deeds, even if there was an act of treason, it would be impossible to blatantly put the evidence in his mansion, but now Shang Xu's appearance is as indifferent as a broken jar.

Just as he was thinking, Shang Xu put down his teacup, got up from the chair, and said to Yuan Zhi: "In that case, trouble the Prime Minister to take me into custody, and let the emperor decide everything."

"What does Shang Xiang mean... are all the conclusive evidence true?" Yuan Zhi asked.

Shang Xu shook his head and sighed: "If you want to commit a crime, there is nothing wrong with it."

Wei Yuanting coughed and said: "The emperor only said that the Prime Minister's residence is temporarily banned. Since we have found something, we will take our leave first, and the Prime Minister can take a rest."

"That's right." Yuan Zhi smiled and bowed, "Then I'll take my leave first. Someone, send these things to the palace."

"Yes!"

……

A little matter in the court is a big matter among the people. If you don't care, you won't notice it; but if you care, you can hear everything.Just like Wei Lin, he is one of those caring people.

Before Jiang Ye came back, under Wei Yuanting's guidance, he had already seen some things about the court clearly, and what he heard in Zuo Xiang's mansion that night was also given him some clear instructions.

After Jiang Ye entered the palace, Wei Lin found someone to bribe the palace servants and paid them to bring some news.

Zuo Xiangfu was confiscated, Wei Lin didn't go out on purpose, and waited for Wei Yuanting to come back at home.

Around evening, Wei Yuanting really came back, his face was full of tiredness, as if these things in court were more tiring than fighting.

"Dad is back?"

Wei Lin was sitting in the front hall eating snacks. When Wei Yuanting came back, he put all the snacks in his hand into his mouth, swallowed them whole, and immediately got up to meet him.Wei Yuanting raised his eyes and glanced at him. With such an abnormal attitude, he immediately guessed that Wei Lin wanted something from him.

Wei Yuanting ignored Wei Lin, and just asked Butler He next to him: "How is the young master?"

"The eldest young master is still recuperating, and the doctor said it will take some time before he can go to the ground."

Wei Lin continued: "Is the search of the house going well today?"

Wei Yuanting snorted impatiently: "What does it have to do with you?"

He was also used to being treated coldly by Wei Yuanting, his face did not change when he heard this, and he continued: "I heard that the commander of the imperial army in the palace is going to change..."

"What does this have to do with you?"

Wei Lin looked to the side, butler He was standing, and several servants were waiting for Wei Yuanting's dispatch at any time.He grinned, answered Wei Yuanting's words, and said to Steward He next to him: "Please trouble Steward He to go down for a while, I have something to say to my father."

Butler He glanced at Wei Yuanting, who was looking at Wei Lin with some puzzlement.

Although Wei Lin had an indifferent smile on his face, his words were so serious that one had to think about why he was so serious.Wei Yuanting could only wave his hand at Butler He, and Butler He immediately left the front hall with several other servants.

In a blink of an eye, there were only father and son left in the front hall, Wei Lin said cautiously, "I'm here to negotiate terms with you."

"About conditions?" Wei Yuanting's eyes widened a little, "Do you know who you are talking to?"

Facing Wei Yuanting's anger, Wei Lin was not surprised. He took a few steps back lightly, then slowly knelt in front of Wei Yuanting and said, "Why should we go around the corner between us, father and son?"

"I can say that, but if you say it, you just don't understand the rules." Wei Yuanting snorted coldly.

"I know, I just don't want to go around in circles." Wei Lin said, "If you promise me this, I will obediently be your son in the Wei family."

"I don't lack your son."

"But that trash Wei Tianqi, not to mention fighting, even has problems taking care of himself." Wei Lin said bluntly.

Hearing Wei Lin's words, Wei Yuanting couldn't hold back his anger, raised his hand and patted the table: "Presumptuous!"

"I'm used to being reckless." Wei Lin said, "You didn't blame me for running away for ten years. I have suffered so much in these ten years, and it is thanks to this 'brother'."

"What do you mean by that?"

"It doesn't matter what it means. If you are curious, you can ask Mrs. Wei in Jiangling, and then ask Wei Tianqi, and it will be clear." Wei Lin continued.

His face was expressionless, and his tone was very indifferent when he said this, as if he was talking about other people's affairs.

Hearing Wei Lin's words, Wei Yuanting couldn't help thinking, and Wei Lin went on to say: "In short, I can stay in the Wei family, and I can be the youngest son of General Wei. I only have one request."

"……you say."

"I heard that the commander of the imperial army is going to be replaced by someone from the Wei family, so let me go." Wei Lin said directly without making any detours.

Wei Yuanting glanced at him with deep meaning in his eyes, but he didn't speak.

Wei Lin just knelt on the ground, waiting for Wei Yuanting's reply.

The two were silent for a long time before Wei Yuanting said, "Who told you this news?"

"Investigating this matter, as the son of General Wei, it is not difficult."

"Then I really underestimated you." Wei Yuanting said coldly.

Wei Lin wants to be the commander of the imperial army, of course he is willing.If Wei Lin is now interested in these things, it would be great for Wei Yuanting.

But this request came out of nowhere, and the suspicion he had developed over the years made Wei Yuanting afraid to agree to Wei Lin for a while.The purpose of this cannot be fully explained, he always felt that Wei Lin's words were deceitful.

Thinking of this, Wei Yuanting suddenly felt desolate.He has been in power for so many years, and even his own son dare not trust him rashly.

"Just tell me what you want to do." After a while, Wei Yuanting said.

Wei Lin thought for a while and said, "Because, because a very important person is in the palace."

As soon as this remark came out, the man who had been entangled with Wei Lin when he was in the Northern Army popped up in Wei Yuanting's mind.He grabbed the teacup and poured all the hot tea on Wei Lin's face.Wei Lin didn't hide, the tea made him unable to open his eyes, he just raised his hand to wipe his face, and looked at Wei Yuanting again, the firmness in his eyes was something Wei Yuanting had never seen before.

"You bastard!" Wei Yuanting lowered his voice.

"If you want to inherit the family, Wei Tianqi can give it to you; if you want someone to inherit the Shangzhou Army, I can. Is this not good?"

"What exactly do you mean?"

"What I mean is, whether you agree or not, you can't interfere with who I will be with in the future. But now I have a chance, you let me enter the palace, and I am a member of the Shangzhou Army."

Putting aside personal emotions, Wei Lin's offer was very tempting to Wei Yuanting.Indeed, as he said, Wei Tianqi is enough to carry on the family line, but with Wei Tianqi's temperament, it is whimsical to want to command the Shangzhou Army.

Even if it was out of selfishness, he wanted his and Fu Yang's children to inherit the foundation he built with his own hands.

He can clearly remember the hardships of the Wei family from being alone, fighting on the battlefield, to being a famous family in Xuanguo today.If no one can inherit Wei Yuanting after a hundred years, then he will die with peace.

"Don't even think about it." Wei Yuanting said fiercely.

"In the past, you have always ignored me, but this time, I came to ask my father, not General Wei. If I insist on this, you can't stop me." Wei Lin said, "Look Father is perfect."

Wei Lin's words were threatening, and poured fuel on the nameless anger in Wei Yuanting's heart.Without further words, Wei Yuanting got up and cursed, "Then you should just kneel here", and then walked away.

Wei Lin knelt in the front hall for two days.

He has always been physically strong, but the two knives he suffered in the northern army made it really difficult for him to kneel for two days now.His face was pale and his lips were terribly dry, but he was as motionless as a statue.

If it's just kneeling, it's not a big deal, but if you don't eat or drink for two days, no one will be able to support it.

By the morning of the third day, Wei Lin's eyes were blurred and he couldn't see anything. He just insisted on kneeling with perseverance.

In the haze, he seemed to see Jiang Ye close at hand, and wanted to grin, but he didn't have the strength, and even moved his lips a little, and the chapped lips began to hurt.

"Ye'er..." With the last bit of strength, Wei Lin yelled out this sentence vaguely, and then fell forward, completely unconscious.

Wei Yuanting stood in front of him, and the moment Wei Lin fell down, he quickly squatted down and reached out to hug Wei Lin.

He hadn't hugged his stubborn little son for many years.This feeling is extremely strange, but it carries an indescribable complex emotion.
