I was a gentleman in ancient times

Chapter 120

Coming out of the garden, seeing Xu Xuan who was still waiting for the result, Wei Su smiled slightly, left without saying anything.

Xu Xuan couldn't see any clues from him at all. For a while, he murmured in his heart, what was the final result?

He raised his head and looked around, but he didn't see the young master's pregnancy, so he became more and more impetuous.

Wei Su sat in the carriage, closed his eyes and meditated, recalled the response in the palace again, and smiled with an unknown meaning.Now he handed over the position of little Situ, not without purpose.He wants to leave, of course he can't be noticed, so throw this bait and let several forces in the court fight for each other. Who will have the time to pay attention to him then?As long as the arrangements are made properly, there will not be too much difficulty in leaving Yi'an and entering Shu County.

When the son came out with a smile on his face, Xu Xuan hurriedly went up to meet him, and asked with concern: "Master, is it all done?"

Young Master Huai laughed loudly, "Mr. Xu still has a solution, and the king is in charge. Wei Su has to agree if he doesn't agree."

Xu Xuan squinted his eyes, "Congratulations master, congratulations master. A difficult master like Wei Su can let go of his mouth and let master get what he wants. Master really has the foresight. Here I wish the master the beauty and enjoy the beauty." Blessing of man."

Xu Xuan's flattering words made Young Master Huai even more proud. To him, the daughter of the Wei family is just a rare thing.Compared with other beauties in his house, he put a little more thought into it.It's just that I don't know when I will get tired of it. Of course, I can't let go of things that I haven't got yet, but after I get them, I don't necessarily want to, and I might just throw them away like a shoe.

"Hahaha, with your auspicious words, Wei Su is nothing more than that. He said that he valued friendship, but it was not a compromise after all. He even resigned from the little Situ, saying that he would prepare a dowry for his sister. Haha, you Tell me, is he thinking of clinging to me? In this way, he can get a beauty and Wei Su's help, it's really a beautiful thing to kill two birds with one stone." Young Master Huai said with a smile.

"Master said that Wei Su asked to resign from little Situ?" Xu Xuan was puzzled, what did Wei Su ask to resign?

"That's right! But how many people are staring at his little Situ's position, I didn't expect him to be so savvy, so I brought it up myself. But according to what your majesty means, he should be allowed to be an official in the court in the future. Marriage with the Wei family, when the time comes, he will have no choice but to attach himself to me."

Xu Xuan twitched the corners of his mouth, congratulating on the surface, but he was already planning to do it in his heart, because he thought highly of Wei Su.He thought that Wei Su would reject Young Master Huai for his younger sister, but since Wei Su accepted, he also has a way to discredit Wei Su.So what if you enter the dynasty?A ruined hypocrite, he can still step Wei Su into the quagmire.

Wei Su went straight home. Wei Zhen at home had already heard about the incident, and had been anxiously waiting for Wei Su's answer.Seeing Wei Su coming back, he hurriedly greeted him, hesitant to speak with a worried expression on his face.

Wei Su smiled at her, "What's the rush, we'll go in and tell you slowly."

Wei Zhen nodded and followed Wei Su into the study.After closing the door, Wei Zhen couldn't wait to say: "Brother, you go into the palace, but, but because...?"

Wei Su sat down, "Indeed, it's Young Master Huai's marriage proposal, Lord Lou said he would personally order the marriage."

"What? It's ridiculous, how can they decide other people's marriage without authorization?" Wei Zhen was furious when she heard the words.

Wei Su chuckled, "It's not for anything else, it's because they are dignitaries and the kings of a country. Taking things by force is a matter of course for them, and they only care about their own interests and ideas, and they don't care about other things at all. "

"Brother, what should we do then?" Wei Zhen asked eagerly, he didn't want to marry that dude.Why does he have to marry himself if he wants to marry him? Go ahead and make his dream come true.

"What should I do? What else can I do?" Wei Su smiled and said, "Brother has no choice but to agree. Why don't you come back and prepare a dowry for you?"

Wei Zhen glared at Wei Su, what time is this, brother is still in the mood to joke.

"I'm really not kidding." Wei Su said seriously.

Wei Zhen was stunned for a moment, her face full of disbelief, "You, didn't you say that you would not arrange my marriage casually without my consent, and you said you would agree to what I like. "But now, what did she hear from her brother?The elder brother actually made the decision without authorization.

"That being said, you have never had someone you like..." Wei Su said in a difficult way.

"Who says I don't? I already have someone I like."

A smile flashed across Wei Su's eyes, "Oh? Then why don't I know? Who is it?"

Wei Zhen didn't notice Wei Su's strangeness, she stomped her feet and said, "He...hasn't he already proposed marriage to you?"

"Oh? Proposed marriage?" Wei Su pretended to think about it, "Is there such a thing? Why don't I remember?"

Wei Zhen was helpless, "Prince Qi had already proposed marriage when he first came to Lou country."

"Oh, the prince Qi you mentioned, didn't you agree at that time? You like him? In the past two or three years, between you?" Wei Su guessed.

Wei Zhen blushed in a rare way, "He would write to me occasionally and tell me about him. He said he would wait for me all the time. I would rather choose Wang Ziqi than that son Huai who I have never met."

In the past few years, the two have also communicated with each other, expressing their sincere feelings and talking about their confidants. Although the two have not met each other, their relationship has taken a step forward.

Wei Su's face was already blue, and he gritted his teeth, okay, what a prince Qi, when I wasn't paying attention, Chen Cang turned dark.

Seeing Wei Su's face was sombre and silent, Wei Zhen thought he was making things difficult.I can't help but regret in my heart, my brother gave her too much, but I went against my brother's wishes in this matter, how does this make my brother deal with himself?

When they came to Lou country, their identities were in an embarrassing situation. The elder brother must have had his last resort, so he agreed to his marriage without asking himself.

Brother has paid too much for her, but she only cares about herself. This is really inappropriate, isn't it a marriage?Since ancient times, the order of parents and the words of matchmakers.The brother's joke at the beginning gave me a choice, so I took it seriously. Is there any woman in this world who can really make her own decisions?

"Is brother really helpless?" Wei Zhen's eyes were red, "Zhen'er shouldn't be selfish, if my marriage can be exchanged for my brother's future, then... I am willing!"

Wei Su was taken aback by Wei Zhen's words, Wei Zhen was so sensible that it made people feel distressed, Wei Su wanted to rub her head, but he didn't reach out. "Silly girl, why would brother trade your happiness for my future?"

Wei Zhen raised her head, tears fell one by one, "Zhen'er won't blame my brother... Zhen'er is proud of having a brother like you. My brother has done so much for me , I can do anything for my brother."

Wei Su's heart ached for a while, a person who never panics when things happen, but panicked at this moment, "Hey! Don't cry, brother is teasing you. Brother doesn't need Ah Zhen to sacrifice for me, brother will protect you well .”

Wei Su wiped her tears at a loss, "Silly girl, do you think there is anything that can make it difficult for brother? The matter of the son Huai's marriage proposal is just a trivial matter, why can't we handle it? What else do you need?" Are you worried?"

"So, don't worry, if you like Wang Ziqi, that's fine. I'll prepare the dowry for you, and wait for him to come to formally propose marriage. My brother promises not to kick him out of the house."

Wei Zhen was stunned when she heard the words, the emotional brother was trying to test her just now, and she accidentally told about Wang Ziqi.This... this... She was blushing right now, wishing she could get in.

Seeing Wei Zhen's accusing eyes, Wei Susheng felt a little guilty, "I have never lied to you. I temporarily agreed to the marriage proposal of Young Master Huai, but it will take three months. During this time, I will Will arrange to leave Lou country."

"Leaving Lou Country?" Wei Zhen was surprised, she had never heard her brother mention this matter.

Wei Su nodded, "I've almost made the arrangements, just wait for the opportunity."

Wei Zhen was delighted, "Then where are we going, back to Yingyang City?"

Wei Su shook his head, "We can't go back to Yingyang City for the time being, but I plan to go to Qin State."

Wei Zhen heard that, although she was a little disappointed, she didn't show it, "Qin, is Prince Zhan's mother country?"

Back in the academy, Wang Zizhan lived next door to their house. His brother and him had a good relationship, and it was good to be able to go to Qin.But she had a question in her mind, "Wasn't Wang Ziqi always wanting us to go to Bei Country? Why didn't my brother choose there?"

Wei Su stared at him with a half-smile, and teased, "Why? You haven't been married yet, so you're helping Prince Qi talk?"

Wei Zhen didn't expect this level at first, but being mentioned like this, she seemed to be doing it on purpose, and stomped her feet, "Brother knows how to laugh at me, so I won't tell you."

After finishing speaking, he ran out. Anyway, my brother has a plan for my brother, so why should I worry about it?Wei Su's hearty laugh came from behind him.Wei Zhen's face was red and her ears were red. Brother and so on, I hate it the most.

Wei Su kept his ears to the outside world, and sent his servants to purchase various dowries in various parts of the city, and Lord Lou also rewarded them with many rare things.

In the imperial court, because Wei Su asked to resign from the vacant position of the little Situ, several forces fought fiercely, and even Lou Guojun had a headache, not knowing what to do.

The little Situ, who used to be inconspicuous and avoided by everyone, has become a sweet potato that everyone scrambles for after being resurrected in Wei Su's hands. This is something that many people did not expect.

The news that the Wei family is about to marry the young master Huai of Gongqing's mansion has spread throughout the entire capital.

People all congratulated and congratulated on the century-old marriage, but there were also rumors quietly rising, and the momentum was not small.Many people spread rumors and spread rumors more and more widely. Many people don't even know what is true and what is false.

"Send your sister out to marry for your own status, tsk tsk tsk, what's the difference between selling a girl for glory?"

"Don't talk nonsense! Mr. Wei is not such a person."

"Are you still talking for him? The facts are in front of you, how can it be called nonsense?"

"Brother Li said that it has been spread everywhere now. Wei Su is nothing more than a fame-seeking person. For the sake of high officials and rich salary, he has indeed done too much."

"What did he do? Didn't he marry a public official? Isn't it normal for a man to be talented and beautiful? Why did he have something to do with prostitution, high-ranking officials and rich salary? It's a joke." The person who spoke for Wei Su said Can't understand why they would say that.

"Brother Liu, is it possible that you don't know?" Someone asked in surprise.

"what do you know?"

Someone began to repeat what they had heard, "I heard that Wei Su's sister had already arranged a marriage a few years ago. But now Wei Su, in order to curry favor with the powerful, regretted the previous marriage, and then separated his sister Promise to the young master."

"That's right, that's true, Wei Su is a hypocrite with a good face. He kept saying that he wanted to find a good son-in-law for his sister, but what happened? Hehe, the young master has a lustful nature and a hot temper. There are countless beauties in his house." , but it is not uncommon for his mansion to bring out corpses to be dumped in mass graves every few days. The daughter of the Wei family married, I am afraid that she will suffer."

Everyone sighed and sighed, all regretting.Back then, the story of Wei's daughter rescuing a woman who was hit and pregnant with Liujia on the street had already spread throughout the streets and alleys.

Wei Zhen is not only beautiful, but also has medical skills, and her medical skills are superb at a young age.Seeing that the mother and child were pulled back from the gate of hell, who would not give a thumbs up when mentioning this?

But now, such a good little lady is actually being used as a bargaining chip in exchange for benefits, who doesn't regret it?

There are still people who don't believe that Mr. Wei is a good person, judging by how much he has done for the people since he became a young Situ, he is not so much better than those who eat vegetarian meals with corpses.

So what if the ability is good?This behavior of doing everything in order to gain wealth and honor is really chilling.Today's gentlemen all pay attention to virtue, as long as they have good conduct, they will be respected wherever they go.But if the conduct is bad, no matter how strong the ability is, there will still be someone pointing at him behind his back.

Wang Ziji stopped to hear this, and was very angry. I really don't know where these rumors came from, and each one was more outrageous than the other.Even if he wanted to go down and defend Mr. Wei, who would listen to him alone?He didn't listen any more, and went to Wei Mansion angrily.

Seeing Wei Su, Wang Ziji was full of anger, and said all that he had heard, "Mr. is obviously not such a person. There are rumors outside, why didn't you come forward to explain?"

Wei Su took a sip of tea leisurely, and said with a smile: "Explain what? Those who know me will naturally not believe this, and those who don't know me, what's the use of explaining it? Rumors only stop with wise people, and it's human nature to follow what others say. Why bother explaining too much?"

Wang Ziji was furious, but in the end he could only sigh.

Why didn't Wei Su know that this was premeditated by others, and didn't all these rumors and public opinions be learned from him, the patriarch?Isn't this just playing big swords in front of Guan Gong?He really didn't take these methods seriously.

When Wei Su asked Wang Ziji what he was doing here, Wang Ziji remembered the purpose and said: "There will be a spring festival outside the city soon, and all civil and military officials will go to sacrifice at that time, Mr. Wei, will you go too? "

Wei Su nodded with a smile, "Of course I'm going. After all, it's an annual event, and I can take my younger sister there too. Let the mountain god protect my younger sister to have a harmonious husband and wife after she gets married, and to have a baby early."

The Spring Sacrifice is a sacrificial ceremony held every year in Lou State. At that time, not only civil and military officials will participate, but most of the common people will also go there to pray for themselves or their families.

Wang Ziji's heart skipped a beat when he heard the words, he hesitated to speak.In the end, he could only nod his head, and said meaningfully: "That's fine, I will also pray for my husband."

Hearing what Wang Ziji said, Wei Su felt relieved, "Then I would like to thank Wang Ziji. I also hope that you will be safe and successful. If there is a chance in the future, I will be able to answer your questions."

The tip of Wang Ziji's nose was a little sour. At the beginning, he swore that he would protect Mr. well, but now, he broke his promise.He bowed deeply to Wei Su, "Ji hasn't thanked Mr. for his kindness in cultivating him. If he has the opportunity in the future, Ji would like to join Mr.'s school and devote himself to learning."

Wei Su also patted him on the shoulder with some reluctance, recalling the sophomore boy in Yingyang Academy back then.After so many years, things have changed and people have changed, but he can still keep his original intentions, which is already very rare.

"Learning can be done anywhere. Only by protecting yourself can you do your own thing better. Sometimes, status is a double-edged sword. If you keep the green hills, you will not be afraid of no firewood. Nothing is more precious than life. You want Remember what I said today."

"Yes, Ji will keep it in mind."
