Chronicle of Emperor Jing

In the blink of an eye, it was December fifteenth.

On the first and fifteenth day of each month, there will be a grand court, and all Beijing officials will come to participate in the court meeting. Usually, there is no chance to meet the emperor's sesame and mung bean officials. .

On this day, Jing Li ascended to the throne amidst the sound of ceremonial music, accepted the visits of the courtiers, and entered the old process of "playing if there is something to do, and leaving the court if there is nothing to do".

"Your Majesty, I have something to do!"

"His Majesty……"

As soon as the servant of Xuanli finished the eight words, the courtiers came out one after another, asking for a performance.

These courtiers who came out glanced at each other, and automatically arranged the order of the performances according to their ranks, and went forward one by one.

The court meeting on this day, as Jing Li expected, most of the courtiers began to argue about changing the Yuan.

The courtiers wanted to change the yuan first, quoted the scriptures, and sprayed countless saliva on each other. After a hard fight, the side that wanted to change the yuan won the final victory.

"What Qing and others said is very true, but how should we change it? Do you have any suggestions?" Jing Li sat on the throne, with an unfathomable expression, agreed to change the Yuan, and continued to provoke trouble.

Once these people have nothing to do, they will find other people's work, of course Jingli can't let them idle.

The courtiers who agreed to change the Yuan Dynasty had prepared a new year name early on, and quickly brought it up for discussion.

The courtiers who opposed the change of Yuan just now, seeing that the change of Yuan was a foregone conclusion, immediately changed their positions and joined the ranks of proposing the new name.

The rapid change of positions of these people and the skillful expression of these people are simply breathtaking.

However, the courtiers were all used to big storms, and they were no strangers to this kind of thing, and they were not surprised by such a trivial matter.

"Your Majesty, I think..."

When the courtiers played, they always started with the same beginning, followed by eloquent and long speeches, each with its own differences.These people, all kinds of great truths, can be easily spoken, and those who are a little bit indecisive may be taken away by them.

Jing Li was taken away unexpectedly.

This is not the first time he and his courtiers have fought against each other. After all these years of getting along, who doesn't know the details of who!On the surface, everyone will always behave like a wise monarch and virtuous minister, but as for all kinds of things behind the scenes, we all understand each other.Those who don't understand must be newcomers who have just entered the officialdom. As long as they have been in the officialdom for a long time, they will understand sooner or later.

During the entire court debate, he just listened, nodded occasionally, but never made a statement.

He didn't want this matter to be settled too quickly, lest these people come to find fault again when they are free, so at the court meeting that day, the courtiers quarreled and quarreled, and had a good time, but no result was reached.

Those who didn't quarrel happily at the court meeting grabbed each other again and continued to quarrel.

Soon, some people started to form groups, some people wanted to find foreign aid, and the courtiers formed various alliances for this matter.

Of course, these things have nothing to do with Jingli.

Anyway, he didn't care much about what the New Year's name was. He waited for the courtiers to come to a conclusion, and then ordered Qin Tianjian to make a calculation.

December [-]th was the auspicious day calculated by Master Yunhua for the Zhongyihou's mansion.

The big butler of the Weize Mansion commanded people to clean up the street in front of the door early in the morning. On the main gate of the Hou Mansion, on the stone lions in front of the door, the family members standing on both sides were also dressed in red ribbons. , showing a lively scene.

Around the middle of the day, the masters of the Hou Mansion and the family members who were watching the ceremony all came to the door one after another.

As soon as the auspicious time came, the plaque "Loyalty and Righteous Marquis's Mansion" bestowed by the emperor was finally hung high above the middle gate of the Marquis's Mansion under the gaze of everyone.

Standing in front of the door, amidst the loud sound of firecrackers, Wei Ze looked at the plaque, deeply moved.

The Wei family is now a family of three lords again, the emperor is so trustworthy, in addition to serving faithfully, he must also be more cautious in his actions.

As for Wei Yan, he turned his head and glanced at his younger brother.

Even if his stupid younger brother is caught in the vortex of rumors, he always looks like he has nothing to do with him, and he doesn't know if he is really stupid or just pretending to be stupid.

Wei Ze pondered for a while, and found that this question was quite difficult to answer.

His stupid brother often switches between being stupid and not stupid, not to mention other people, even his family members, will never be able to predict what state he will be in today when he wakes up.

Wei Ze's thoughts flashed through his mind.

The sound of firecrackers gradually subsided, he came back to his senses, and said to Old Master Wei: "Father, it's cold outside, let's go in."

He stretched out his arm, trying to help Old Hou Ye walk in.

"I'm not old yet. I don't need anyone to help me when I'm on this road!" The older Master Wei became, the more he refused to accept his old age. He shook off his eldest son's hand and wanted to walk alone.

However, his body was indeed still strong, so Wei Ze didn't push forward, but greeted Wei Yan: "Xiao Qi, come in, let's have a good drink today, brothers."

"Brother, please!" Wei Yan raised his hand to signal his elder brother to go first.

Wei Minwen and Wei Minshi bit their ears, and the two ran up happily, one on each side, holding the arm of Old Master Wei.

"Grandfather, we will help you go!" they both shouted in unison.

His son wanted to help him, and he rolled his eyes, but if the grandsons wanted to help him, Old Hou Wei must be very useful in his heart.

"Okay, okay, what a good boy." He reached out and touched the heads of the two grandsons, took their hands and went inside.

Wei Ze glanced at Wei Minwen, then at his silly son who could only eat but knew nothing, and couldn't help frowning.

"Xiaoqi, I heard that you are asking Minwen to be the housekeeper?" He took a few steps forward and asked suddenly.

"Yeah!" Wei Yan didn't know what his elder brother meant by asking this question, but it was something he was proud of. He never realized that there was something wrong with doing so, "Does elder brother think that Minwen is very smart and capable? Elder brother Don't worry, Minshi is still young, after two years, he will be able to do so."

Wei Minshi was two years younger than Wei Minwen, now one is eight years old and the other is ten years old.

Wei Yan's "over two years" is a real two years, not at all hypocritical.

What he said made Wei Ze not know how to continue. He was really saying that he was not good, and it would be good not to say that he was not good.

"Minwen is still young, you should take care of the affairs of your house when you are free." He took a deep breath before saying this.

Whether Minwen can do it is his business, but Wei Yan doesn't think there is anything wrong with ordering his son like this, it's too natural.Besides, isn't he surprised at all, Min Wen is a little too capable.

Wei Ze recalled the case back then, and Minwen's original identity, and felt a little hesitant.

The child Minwen was obviously not brought up in the way of ordinary people, but his younger brother never realized this, and he didn't even shy away from it at all.

He frowned, looked at Wei Yan, and wanted to reprimand him a few words, but he didn't know how to speak for a while.

The main reason is that Wei Yan's expression is too calm, making him who thinks a little too much seem out of place.

Wei Minwen supported his grandfather and walked in front of them. Hearing the faint voice of conversation from behind, he discovered for the first time that there were normal people in the Wei family.

His father took it for granted that he was the housekeeper. His grandfather nodded when he heard about it, and his grandmother, who always loved him, also nodded. Even Min Shi would applaud. Now, his eldest Uncle finally felt that this should not be done.

It's rare that there will be a sensible person in the Wei family, which really moved him inexplicably!

"Don't worry, brother, I'll help you when I'm free."

Wei Minwen heard his father reassuring his uncle that he didn't need to look back, he knew that what his father said was just talking, he didn't pay attention to it at all, and it was impossible to do it.

"Forget it, let's not talk about it." Wei Zeyuan wanted to say something, but thought of the emperor, and finally swallowed the words back.

In Wei Yan's mansion, it is a fact that no one is in charge of the internal affairs. Originally, it was not difficult to find a person in charge, but with the emperor there, these things can only be delusions.

A few of them entered the main hall, and the banquet inside was already set up. Then, the family gathered together and had a lively lunch.

Wei Yan originally planned to drink a few more glasses, but before the third round of drinking, a subordinate came to report that Commander Shen was going to see him in the afternoon.

Since he was going to see his boss later, he definitely couldn't drink too much, so he had someone serve hangover soup early on, and then replaced it with mellow hot tea to relieve the hangover, and then took some food before leaving.

After he left, Wei Ze stayed with Old Master Wei and had a few more drinks.

Although Old Marquis Wei was not drunk, he obviously talked a lot more. Weize couldn't help being a little excited when he heard him talking about his time in the army when he was young.

"Father, don't worry, I will take good care of Wei's house." He assured Old Master Wei.

Even if there are all kinds of shadows in the prosperity of the Wei family, he will do his best to protect everyone in the Wei family.

"There are some things, don't worry too much, your brother is not a child anymore." Old Master Wei comforted him.

It has never been an easy task to serve the king, this point, Master Wei knows better than anyone else.

"I know, father, don't worry, I will ask for his opinion on some matters." Wei Ze also understands this truth, he is too worried, so all kinds of anxiety.

Moreover, Wei Yanjiu probably knew more than anyone else in front of the emperor, and he didn't say anything because of his loyalty to the emperor.

But when it comes to the family, Wei Ze believes that there should be some reminders, and he will definitely give them.

"Grandfather, uncle, I have something to do in the afternoon and I need to go out." After a while, Wei Minwen came over and said to them.

"Have you brought all the people around you? Are you riding a car or riding a horse?" Before Wei Ze could speak, Old Master Wei spoke.

"Everyone has brought them, the servants and guards have brought them all, and they are in a carriage."

"Okay, you go out early, and come here to have dinner at the mansion in the evening." Old Master Wei didn't ask him why he was going out, but only checked the manpower he brought with him, and agreed.

For Wei Minwen, this is probably one of the benefits of being a housekeeper.

He is the manager of the housekeeper of the Yongning Hou Mansion, and everyone obviously treats him as an adult, that is, his father treats him as an adult when using him, and treats him as a child in normal times. Not sure how he can switch between the two so well.

He couldn't help but secretly murmured a few words about his father in his heart.

Seeing that Old Master Wei had already agreed, Wei Ze didn't bother to say anything that needed to be said. He just told Wei Minwen to be careful and come back early, and watched him go out.
