Chronicle of Emperor Jing

Chapter 33 Admitting Mistakes

The candidates for the marriage had been confirmed, and there were still many things to be discussed about this marriage, so the eldest lady and the Liu family began to discuss it.

For example, on the day of the Sixth Salute, all auspicious days of the zodiac should be chosen, but they only have one month, and the auspicious days in this month are limited. If there is no suitable day, which days should be used instead?For example, who should the matchmaker invite, where should they be sent to for auspicious omens after changing the gengtie, what should be given as a betrothal gift, which courtyard will Wei Yan live in after getting married, and how should it be arranged in it?

These incidents are cumbersome and meticulous, but none of them should be sloppy, otherwise, either the Wei Mansion will lose face or the Han Mansion will be unhappy. They are getting married, not enmity, so naturally they have to do everything properly.

Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu discussed these matters very vigorously. Old Master Wei and Wei Yan sat beside them, basically unable to intervene. After sitting for a while, Old Master Wei took Wei Yan to the study to talk .

After arriving at the study, Old Master Wei took his seat, and asked Wei Yan to sit beside him, and waited for the maid to serve tea, but he just drank tea and didn't speak.

Old Marquis Wei has been in the ups and downs of the officialdom for decades, and he has already cultivated to become a master. He has no doubts about Wei Yan who has received so much grace these days and stays in the palace every night. Being promoted and reused by the emperor is not without some doubts.

It is normal for an emperor to favor and trust his courtiers, and it is normal for Yin to extend to his sons, but Yin to his father and brother, it always makes people think deeply.

It's just that he vaguely knew something was wrong, but he didn't know how to deal with it before the matter was revealed. There were some things he should say as a father, but he didn't know where to start. In the end, he could only pretend Don't know anything, everything is as usual.

This matter is related to the reputation of the royal family. Even if the emperor is really immoral, once there is a trouble, it will only be the courtiers who will suffer. Moreover, this kind of thing is a serious crime even if you think about it. How can he discuss it with his son in detail? In the end, there was only a sigh.

If the emperor is really interested in someone, that person will either follow or die, there is no third way to go.

It has never been so easy to obey. If the emperor is a mean, ungrateful, ruthless person, even if he obeys at this time, he may end up in trouble in the future.Death is not easy to die. Thunder, rain and dew are all the favor of the king. If you refuse to accept the favor, use blood to stain the emperor's eyes and spoil the emperor's happiness, even if you die, you may also harm your family.

As for directly making a fuss about this matter, causing the emperor to be accused by thousands of people, forcing the emperor to have to revise his virtue?

People who do this probably think that they and their family members have died badly enough.

In the past dynasties, there were not one or two emperors who acted absurdly and ignorantly, but which one would really be criticized by everyone for this kind of thing?

As long as the country is stable and the people are happy, no matter how many men and women there are in the emperor's harem, no matter what means he uses to get these men and women, he is a sage king, and there will be countless people who will worship him, sing praises for him, and sing songs for him Pen modification, even if he really did something unethical, it must be the fault of the person who made him unethical; if the country is not preserved, and the life is in jeopardy, even if the emperor has only one true love, he is also fatuous, vicious and cruel, not only the emperor He will be notorious and never stand up, and his true love will not end well, and the mistakes will be added to the mistakes.

Old Hou Ye Wei understands all the reasons here.It was because he knew everything that he never dared to act rashly.

"Yan'er, although you don't need to worry about how to handle your marriage, it's your own marriage, you can't ignore it, don't take it to heart, and you have to decide some things yourself. How about it, Tomorrow, you will ask His Majesty for some leave, and you will stay in the mansion for a while at night, and you can discuss things if you have something to do." Regardless of whether his worries are true or not, Yan'er's marriage will be fulfilled.

If he thinks too much, it's time for Yan'er to get married anyway.Getting married at this time was a bit hasty, but the matter of the emperor's selection was imminent, and if it was delayed, they would probably have no choice of daughter-in-law in a few days.

If he didn't think too much, it was just to cover up people's eyes and ears, and Yan'er had to get married too.Over the past few days, Master Wei has carefully observed that although Yan'er often stays in the palace, he can always enter and leave the palace freely, and he can also travel far to Youzhou. Even if something goes wrong, the person in the palace may He still regards Yan'er as a courtier, and has no intention of changing the relationship. He should not object to Yan'er marrying a wife at this time.

"My child understands." Wei Yan hesitated for a moment before agreeing.

He didn't need to try, he knew that it was a bit difficult for him to get this leave. It would be okay to say in a day or two, the emperor would probably readily agree, and even if he asked for a month, he would also need to add the wedding holiday in the future. So much leave had to be obtained from the emperor. To come down, it is quite difficult to go to the tiger's mouth and pull out teeth.

But since the old man opened his mouth, how can he say no as a son?He had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree, and then he was struggling with how he should talk to the emperor after entering the palace.

Wei Yan rested at home that night, thinking for a while whether he really persuaded the emperor to agree to pick him in order to get out of that terrible situation as soon as possible, whether it was really for his own self-interest, and he wanted to buy women all over the world In the middle of the fire and water, he was troubled for a while how to ask the emperor for this wedding holiday. After tossing and tossing for half a night, he still didn't think of a reason, and he didn't fall asleep in a daze until dawn.

On the second day, Wei Yan first went to report to the library of the Jinwei camp, and after spending half a day with the pen and ink documents, he went to the palace to see the emperor.

When Emperor Jing saw him, he noticed that he was not in good spirits, so he naturally ordered him to take a good rest.

"I think I'm going to be like a pig." I eat and sleep every day, and eat and sleep, although because of the habit, Wei Yan has already had the idea of ​​giving up on himself, but to be honest, this is really like a pig life.

"How come?" Emperor Jing heard his muttering, and shifted his attention from the memorial to Wei Yan. Today, seeing that Wei Yan looked a little tired, he planned to do more work by himself and not bother him, so he is not free now. Taking a lunch break with Wei Yan, he heard Wei Yan moaning there, looked him up and down seriously, and then continued solemnly, "Pigs are not as thin as you."

Wei Yan has the kind of physique that will not gain weight no matter how much he eats and raises. Although Emperor Jing has been working hard to raise him to the point of being fat and fat, it is really difficult. Even if Emperor Jing is an emperor, he will not get fat The ability to achieve what he wants is at most to make up for the meat that Wei Yan lost some time ago. It is simply impossible to add a little more meat on that basis.

In fact, after Emperor Jing's "pigs are not as thin as you", there is another sentence, which is "pigs are not as stupid as you", but in order to save some face for Wei Yan, he still tried his best to hold back and didn't say it, lest Wei Yan listen After this big truth, the blow was too big, the sadness was too much, and he couldn't eat or drink, and couldn't sleep well, which was not conducive to his great career of gaining weight.

Wei Yan felt that the emperor was probably joking, but when the emperor said this, his expression was serious and his tone was serious, no matter how he looked at it, it didn't look like he was joking. In the end, he could only accept the emperor's argument that he was fatter and thinner than a pig, Without saying a word, he buried his head in the soft pillow and fell asleep.

You are obviously joking, but you have to use an extremely serious tone. If you are obviously serious, you have to use a joking tone. Regarding the emperor's bad taste, with Wei Yan's skills in dealing with the world, he can tell the difference right away. Honestly, it's really unlikely.

He had no choice but to believe everything or not at all. He didn't have the guts to believe nothing at all, so he had no choice but to believe everything. However, when it came to what the emperor said on the bed, Wei Yan was usually trustworthy or not, depending on his needs.

Although he was a little depressed before falling asleep, Wei Yan still had a very comfortable nap.

About an hour later, he woke up, drank a cup of tea, and ate some snacks. The emperor didn't want his help today, so he went for a stroll outside, and when he came back, he had nothing to do. He took a book and read it, and he thought again Sleeping, but the emperor disliked him. Now he sleeps too much and can't sleep at night, so he ordered him to grind ink for the emperor.

Wei Yan murmured in his heart, "This is the servant's job, why should the minister do it?" But the emperor gave the order, and he didn't have the courage to refuse it face to face, so he had to be waited on by others, holding up his arms. He rolled up his sleeves and obediently went to grind ink for the emperor.

The ink used in Emperor Jing's royal pen and vermilion batch is made of high-quality cinnabar, which can be grinded silently and has a strong fragrance. Wei Yan didn't feel too wronged for such a fine ink to be grinded.

However, Wei Yan is the first time to grind ink, and he has never mastered the lightness and gravity of ink grinding. When he starts, the ink is light and heavy, and the result is that the ink is so weak that it turns into smoke when written on paper, or it is so thick that it is difficult to write. Unexpectedly, Emperor Jing asked him to add water for a while, and asked him to continue grinding for a while. It took a little effort to teach him to the level he wanted.

Although such a scene is not considered to be a beauty with red sleeves and a beautiful woman studying ink, when Emperor Jing occasionally raised his head and saw the face beside him who was working hard and concentrating on studying ink during the gap between correcting memorials, his heart was very peaceful and peaceful, and the corners of his mouth were twitching. A faint smile slowly emerged.

Although Wei Yan is a big fool, so stupid that he can't help but want to bully him, but he will not despise him.If it is like this in the future, accompany each other silently, slowly passing by the time, enjoying the morning and sunset together, laughing at the clouds rising and falling, thinking about it, I think it is a very good thing.

Emperor Jing was in a good mood, and the speed of correcting the memorials was naturally accelerated a lot, and the work was soon completed and the booth was closed.

Then there are some trivial matters, chatting, eating, bathing, going to bed, all these are the usual trivial matters.

Wei Yan had been thinking about how he should ask the emperor for his wedding holiday, and he was a bit slow in responding to everything. Fortunately, at the last moment, he racked his brains and finally came up with a solution.

"Your Majesty, I was wrong."

When Wei Yan said this, Emperor Jing was untying his belt, he was taken aback when he heard Wei Yan admit his mistake so simply.

Although he was sure that Wei Yan would admit his mistake in the end, he was not arrogant enough to think that if he got out of the palace once, just listening to some gossip would make Wei Yan easily admit his mistake.If Wei Yan had such a good-natured personality, he wouldn't have such a headache most of the time.

So in order to let Wei Yan realize his mistakes, he has already arranged a detailed plan. Listening to the gossip is only the first step. He always needs to find some examples that can convince Wei Yan and make him uneasy. Let him bow his head obediently.But there is no rush, Emperor Jing is used to taking things slowly, burying people in the deep pit he dug long ago.

It's just that this person admitted his mistake so readily at this time, making all the subsequent arrangements behind him useless.

Emperor Jing felt a little depressed, as if he couldn't spit out blood in his heart, and he couldn't even breathe smoothly.

Many people may not understand why he is depressed. In fact, it is very simple. If a bad person has all kinds of tricks and tricks but has no room to display them, he will definitely be as depressed as him. The reason why he can't empathize with him is because he is not like Emperor Jing. the bad guys.

Fortunately, Emperor Jing thought about it after being depressed for a while, because he soon thought that after Wei Yan confessed his mistake, he would definitely get some kind of benefit, and this depression was nothing to worry about.

"Now that you know you're wrong, is Aiqing ready to accept punishment?" Emperor Jing couldn't help laughing when he saw that Wei Yan was blushing because of the word "Aiqing".

He deliberately said the word "Ai Qing" at this time, because every time he could see Wei Yan's ashamed face, he couldn't help calling him that from time to time.

"Yes." The emperor's words sounded a bit malicious, although Wei Yan felt a little uneasy, he still answered yes.

Based on Wei Yan's understanding over the past few days, the emperor's punishment must be inseparable from the things on the couch. On this couch, what else has he never done?Wei Yan had already been mentally prepared, even if the emperor asked him to be the mouth servant that he hated and didn't want to do the most, he would do it.

The emperor was still untying his belt just now, but after hearing his confession, he immediately stopped, took a few steps back, leaned there, and put on an appearance that he wanted him to serve him.

Wei Yan looked at the emperor's appearance, as if he wanted him to serve him, but he was not sure, or there was still a little luck in his heart, so he asked for instructions: "What should I do, please show me your Majesty."

Hearing his question, Emperor Jing leaned into Wei Yan's ear with a smile, and whispered in a low voice, and then he saw Wei Yan's face turn red and white, white and red again, very interesting.
