Chapter 357 Oiled Paper Umbrella
"You blocked her way and ruined her plans time and time again."
"So she won't let you off the hook!"
"Women of the Tang Dynasty are not as simple as you think..."
"Take Empress Zhangsun as an example!"
"If she wants to interfere in politics, no one in the court can stop her!"
"Changsun Wuji, Gao Shilian, and others are all her people."
Even your father has to owe her a debt of gratitude!
"If it weren't for her advice, your father might have been beheaded by His Majesty long ago."
"down……
"None of the four imperial concubines were simple."
"Secondly, outside..."
Do you think I'm the only one?
"Zheng Guanyin is also eyeing this covetously!"
As Princess Hailing began to speak, Wei Shuyu fell into a brief silence.
"So who is the 'she' you're talking about?" Wei Shuyu couldn't help but ask.
"Do you still want to ask?"
Princess Hailing glanced at Wei Shuyu with surprise.
"You said it yourself..."
A cold glint flashed in Wei Shuyu's eyes: "I've ruined her plans time and time again!"
"So even if I cower, she still won't let me go!"
Princess Hailing thought for a moment.
indeed……
Wei Shuyu did far too many terrible things.
"I have no idea!"
Princess Hailing vehemently denied it.
Wei Shuyu, however, was completely skeptical.
Princess Hailing harbored resentment towards Li Shimin, and the mastermind behind it must have had contact with her.
I just don't know what agreement they reached.
"Never mind, I never expected you to tell me anyway."
Wei Shuyu suddenly laughed and said, "As long as we know she is a woman, and of a high status, that's enough!"
"how?"
Princess Hailing frowned and said, "Did you not listen to a single word I said?"
What do you want to tell me?
Wei Shuyu tilted his head and asked, "Is it because she's very powerful that she told me not to go against her?"
"Or is it that women are so powerful that I shouldn't mess with them?"
Princess Hailing's gaze gradually turned cold.
"Don't provoke her again!"
Princess Hailing rebuked in a deep voice, "She is not as simple as you think."
Wei Shuyu laughed heartily...
Then he took a step forward and stood side by side with Princess Hailing.
"Women's rights in the Tang Dynasty, women's rights..."
Wei Shuyu murmured something, then said loudly, "You've said so much, but isn't all this feminism just revolving around His Majesty?"
"Isn't it a coincidence?"
"My Wei family... is afraid of everything!"
"We fear the people won't have enough to eat, we fear the people won't sleep well, we fear corrupt officials running rampant, we fear corrupt bureaucrats acting recklessly..."
"But the only one I'm not afraid of is His Majesty!"
Do you think the Wei family would be afraid of her?
Wei Shuyu's eyes were filled with determination.
Even Princess Hailing was momentarily stunned upon hearing these words.
"Have you thought it through?"
Princess Hailing advised, "I'm only telling you so much because of Wei Zheng."
"Yeah?"
Wei Shuyu retorted, "Then why don't you go and persuade my father?"
Princess Hailing had no choice.
Wei Zheng was such an old-fashioned man, no one could persuade him otherwise.
But you can't touch him.
Although Wei Zheng may seem to be all alone, no one can bear the consequences of anyone who dares to touch him.
I won't go into Wagang, Confucianism, or Li Shimin.
Even the five surnames and seven noble families, each faction would lend their full support.
Behind Wei Zheng stood the people!
Avenging Wei Zheng would not only bring promotions and titles, but also immense fame!
"Aren't you really afraid of death?"
Princess Hailing said with an extremely solemn expression, "You are not your father, it wouldn't be that difficult for her to kill you!"
"As long as you promise not to target her anymore, I can guarantee she won't attack you again!"
Wei Shuyu looked up.
The drizzle in the sky gradually intensified.
The drops of water on the ground, like a melody, touched people's hearts.
"The rain is getting heavier!"
Wei Shuyu did not answer directly, but simply extended his hand.
As raindrops fell into his palm, Wei Shuyu clenched his fist tightly!
"Heavy rain, light rain, showers, torrential rain..."
"It's all rain."
"Old people, children, men, women..."
"They're all human!"
"You're right, my Wei family may have offended some people!"
"But it's definitely not two-thirds of the people of the Tang Dynasty!"
Wei Shuyu withdrew his hand and put it behind his back.
His body was ramrod straight, exuding the refined elegance of a scholar.
"What about women's rights in the Tang Dynasty? What about offending two-thirds of the people in the Tang Dynasty..."
"It's just you powerful and wealthy families trying to gild your own image!"
"Our Wei family speaks out for the people, bringing benefits to all the people under heaven!"
"Go to the market and ask any thirty women!"
"Don't even mention twenty..."
"If even five people speak ill of the Wei family, then Old Wei has worked for nothing all his life!"
Princess Hailing remained silent.
This is the Wei family, a troublemaker in the imperial court.
It's clearly murky and chaotic, yet it insists on creating a bright and clear world!
This prevented the flies from eating in peace.
"Fine, whatever."
Princess Hailing said no more.
This brat has completely inherited Wei Zheng's traits; even his stubbornness is exactly the same.
"Actually, I think..."
"If you still have a conscience, we can cooperate."
"Don't you have a grudge against the Fang family?"
"I'll find Fang Yi'ai and soak him in a cesspool for three days and three nights to vent your anger?"
You still say so, right?
Princess Hailing stared at Wei Shuyu.
"Why...why are you looking at me like that?" Wei Shuyu immediately cowered.
Don't be fooled by the fact that Princess Hailing is now dressed as a nun.
But becoming Li Yuanji's queen made her even more cherished by Li Shimin.
Her looks are absolutely one in a million.
And... he's in his thirties.
It adds to the charm of a mature woman.
Being stared at by such a young woman suddenly made Wei Shuyu's heart race.
"Heh... little brat."
Princess Hailing suddenly laughed: "Shouldn't you be leaving?"
Walk?
Wei Shuyu looked at the torrential rain in the sky: "Your Highness, it's still raining."
"Whether it's heavy rain or light rain, it's still rain, getting a little wet won't hurt."
Princess Hailing shouted, "Guards, show the guests out!"
Tap tap tap.
The guards arrived wearing straw raincoats.
He glared at Wei Shuyu and said, "Please."
"..."
Wei Shuyu asked in a low voice, "Could I borrow an umbrella?"
"There's no umbrella, but..."
Princess Hailing shifted her gaze and landed on the banana tree in the courtyard: "Give him a whole banana leaf, so that others won't say that I, the princess, am heartless."
Then……
Wei Shuyu was kicked out, and then they threw him a banana leaf.
Bang.
The door closed.
That arrogant and dismissive attitude was on full display!
A passerby gave Wei Shuyu a strange look.
Wei Shuyu quickly picked up the banana leaves and stepped forward...
"Brother, would you trade your banana leaf for your umbrella?"
"No change."
"I'll offer ten coins."
"The weather is at least as usual."
"Yeah?"
Wei Shuyu nodded: "I haven't stretched my muscles in a long time either."
"What do you mean?"
Wei Shuyu glanced around and saw that there was no one else on the road, then a smile appeared on his lips.
Ping-ping-pong-pong.
A moment later.
"Would one coin be alright?"
"Okay, okay, okay..."
Wei Shuyu left, holding an umbrella.
Oiled paper umbrella!
The Tang Dynasty was in full swing, and some people who were living comfortably adopted it.
I wonder if they will come to pay tribute this time?
Once upon a time, I was just a soldier.
This time, I stood at the center of power in the Tang Dynasty!
