Chapter 101 Father and Son Conversation
In recent days, in addition to the arrest of Wu Shihuo, another major event has occurred in Chang'an.
Songtsen Gampo challenged Changsun Chong and won decisively!
Moreover, Songtsen Gampo also challenged the sons of noble families in Chang'an.
I am fearless in the face of challenges, whether in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, martial arts, or military strategy.
Wei Mansion.
Wu Qiqi ate her meal quietly to the side, while Wei Zheng held his rice bowl with a particularly strange expression.
Originally, Wu Qiqi was beautiful, intelligent, and of a suitable age.
She was one of the daughters-in-law he had his eye on.
But after what happened with Samurai Go, he felt uneasy.
Because Samurai Go was arrested, he was one of the masterminds behind it!
Wu Shihuo entered Chang'an without imperial decree, which was tantamount to plotting a rebellion.
Wei Zheng will not be protected!
And then stomp on it...
Only by consolidating his imperial power could Li Shimin better serve the people and bring them happiness.
Although he knew that Wu Shihuo wanted to see Li Yuan, Wu Shihuo was in a precarious position and could only be used as a warning to others!
"Qiqi, is the food to your liking?" Wei Zheng put down his chopsticks.
"Thank you, Uncle Wei, it's delicious." Wu Qiqi smiled sweetly.
"Um."
For the rest of the meal, Wei Zheng remained silent and left in a hurry after finishing his food…
He didn't even eat much of his favorite pickled celery.
"Fine, you're the first person to scare my dad away." Wei Shuyu rolled his eyes.
Did I scare it away?
Wu Qiqi chuckled, but the smile quickly vanished: "Do you really have a way to save my father?"
"Don't rush, I'll go sound out Dad later..."
Wei Shuyu ate a few mouthfuls of rice, licked the last grain into his mouth, and then slowly left.
Inside the courtyard.
Wei Zheng sat on a stone bench, sipping tea.
"father."
Wei Shuyu called out.
"You want to save Samurai Go?"
"Um."
“If we can’t save him, Wu Shihuo will surely die,” Wei Zheng said after a moment’s consideration.
How will you know if you don't try?
"If you want to save Samurai Go, I will be the first person to stop you..."
"So, Dad, I'm here to tell you to stop interfering."
Do you think I wouldn't get involved?
"I misspoke, it was Dad, just don't interrupt!"
"..."
Wei Zheng suddenly felt an urge to strangle his son.
“If the Imperial Seal were still in your possession, His Majesty might have agreed to release Wu Shihuo, but as things stand now…” Wei Zheng paused.
After Qin Qiong obtained the Imperial Seal, he immediately delivered it to the palace.
The Imperial Seal of the State was already placed on the dragon's desk.
It is estimated that Li Shimin will bring it out at the next court assembly and show it off to the civil and military officials.
"It's alright."
Wei Shuyu smiled and said, "Using the Imperial Seal to threaten His Majesty would sow the seeds of disaster for our Wei family. It is not the best course of action."
Wei Zheng nodded with satisfaction: "Then I'd like to see how you rescue Wu Shihuo."
"The former subordinates of the retired emperor are gathered in Chang'an. Your Majesty will not delay for long."
"His Majesty will convict Samurai Gou at the court assembly the day after tomorrow."
"Convict him immediately and execute him on the spot!"
Wei Zheng still revealed a clue: "So, you only have one day to prepare."
Wei Shuyu nodded.
Seeing this, Wei Zheng continued, "The day after tomorrow is the first day of the month, a grand court assembly. All officials of the ninth rank and above in Chang'an will attend..."
"Dad, why are you saying this? Does it make any difference to our Wei family whether there are more or fewer people?" Wei Shuyu retorted.
"Ha ha……"
Wei Zheng laughed loudly.
The Wei family has never been afraid of large crowds.
"I'm just reminding you that there were a lot of people that day, and you, a mere eighth-rank county magistrate, could only stand outside the hall, in the very back corner..."
"On the day of the court assembly, you won't even have the right to speak!"
Wei Zheng stroked his beard, a smile on his face.
This may sound heartless, but reality is far crueler...
It is absolutely impossible for an ordinary person to see His Majesty.
"If I could walk up to the main hall, would you remain silent, Father?" Wei Shuyu asked casually.
Wei Zheng was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said, "Let's talk about it when you can step into the Taiji Hall."
After saying this, Wei Zheng left with his teacup.
"Father, it's a promise, you're not allowed to interrupt that day," Wei Shuyu called out from behind.
Wei Zheng turned around and glared at him: "Believe it or not, I'll sew your mouth shut first."
You dare tell me to shut up?
This is absolutely outrageous!
Turning around, Wei Zheng's lips curled into a smile again.
It's a good thing that my son is growing up and has his own ideas.
The matter of Samurai Go is simple in some ways...
As long as the officials shut up, His Majesty will shut up!
That was the end of it.
But do you think His Majesty and his officials will shut up so easily?
As I said before, without Wei Zheng supporting him, Wei Shuyu wouldn't even have made it to the Taiji Hall.
"Suffering a loss is a blessing, suffering a loss is a blessing... It's just a pity for my future daughter-in-law."
Wei Zheng shook his head and muttered something under his breath.
The next day.
"Big pot, big pot..."
Choi Shin-ki burst in again, carrying a bolt of brocade in his arms.
"What's wrong now?"
"Look, His Majesty's reward has arrived! Let's go make some clothes..."
Wei Shuyu glanced at it.
The group's discovery of the Imperial Seal was a significant achievement, and Li Shimin naturally rewarded them.
However, the matter of the Imperial Seal could not be publicized widely, so only some money and valuables were bestowed as rewards.
"Aren't you going to take care of Qiqi's matter?" Wei Shuyu shook his head.
"That's right."
Choi Shin-ki slapped his forehead and then threw the brocade cloth away.
The Cui family has plenty of money.
"Big brother, tell me what to do!" Choi Shin-ki said earnestly.
"Um."
Wei Shuyu looked at Cui Shenji with a serious expression: "Go do a hundred push-ups first."
One...one hundred?
Choi Shin-ki was dumbfounded: "Does this have anything to do with saving Uncle Wu?"
"It's okay."
"Then what do you want me to do?"
*Smack*
Wei Shuyu raised his hand and smacked him on the head.
"How many times have I told you? Come on, don't make a racket and shout. You're disturbing the neighbors."
"..."
Choi Shin-ki licked his front teeth.
It's already grown a tiny bit.
After exercising in the yard for a while, Wei Shuyu went out on time.
Check-in?
It no longer exists.
Someone else clocks in for me at work.
In ancient times, officials would take attendance on behalf of others...
Wei Shuyu and the other two went out again.
Wu Qiqi's current identity is sensitive, and it is not appropriate for her to show her face.
Qin Shandao...be a good student and learn to read.
Xuanwu Gate.
"Halt! Who goes there!" The gatekeeper blocked their way.
"Please inform Your Majesty that Wei Shuyu requests an audience with Princess Changle," Wei Shuyu asked.
"See the princess? Don't you know men aren't allowed in the harem?" the soldier shouted.
"Then how can I see Princess Chang Le?"
"Nothing will work!"
The soldier decisively refused: "There are plenty of talented young men who want to see the princess. Stop daydreaming and get lost..."
The soldiers, holding their long spears horizontally, began to drive the people away.
"You bastard, my father is Fang Xuanling!"
"My dad is Choi Ni-hyun..."
The soldier paused when he heard Fang Xuanling's name.
Upon hearing Cui Yixuan's name, the soldiers pressed on even more fiercely...
They were driven straight away, more than ten meters away.
"..."
Xuanwu Gate was guarded by Li Junxian.
A few days ago, Li Junxian suffered several setbacks in front of Cui Yixuan's door, causing them all to lose face...
"It's all about the air."
Choi Shin-ki stomped his feet in anger.
He, who was so domineering and arrogant, had never been treated like this before.
"Big brother, I know what brocade is for now..."
"Let's stop making clothes, let's make burlap sacks!"
"Use the imperial sacks to tie them up!"
? ? ?
This can be changed?
