[126] The first confrontation
Wei Tingyu stayed in the study, not doing anything else, just sitting so quietly, with mixed thoughts. He seemed to be thinking of many things, but also seemed to be thinking of nothing. However, no matter what, the last picture in his mind would always be his.
Xuan'er.
Wei Tingyu felt in a daze at this moment that in his current state, he might not be able to wait until death, but would probably go "crazy" first. As for whether he was crazy or a madman, he didn't know.
However, venting his anger on Wei Jincheng does seem to have some effect. At least he is sober now. He is a little lucky that Wen Xin is with him. Others may not be able to stop him. Of course, they may not want to stop him in their hearts.
After all, they are the people who serve Wei Tingyu. Even if they have a good impression of their prince's wife, but have never gotten along with each other, they are naturally still emotionally biased towards their prince. According to their ideas, the prince's wife can stay with him, at least for the last part of his life.
It is also good to spend time happily. As for the wife who will be in pain and sorrow again after the prince is gone, compared to the former, I can probably only say sorry to the wife.
It's a pity that the master has never allowed this. They can't go against the master's wishes.
Today was a good opportunity, but Wen Xin, a fool, didn't grasp it. "If it were me, I would be happy to be severely punished by the master afterwards." Hua Yu felt infinite regret, and then gave Wen Xin a useless look.
.
Wei Tingyu was familiar with Xiaocao's schedule, and it would not change even when there was nothing wrong. It had been the same for many years, including the two or three years when he lived alone in the imperial city. Therefore, he chose to take his people to Dingding after Xiaocao had gone to bed.
North County Prince's Mansion.
Wei Tingyu took not many, not too few, people with him. They were riding in a sedan chair. The original couch inside was removed and the wheelchair slid directly inside.
There were only two lanterns used to guide the way along the way. The light was relatively dim. From a distance of more than ten steps, the outline of the sedan chair could be vaguely seen.
The old concubine had previously ordered the door to be closed to thank guests. No matter who it was, someone would have an objection if someone came to the door this night. However, when Kaipingwei's badge was revealed, the people in the mansion did not dare to neglect, and they rushed to the door as quickly as possible.
Notified the old lady and King Dingbei.
In terms of title, Mu Bei is the prince of the county, and Wei Tingyu is just a prince of the prince's palace; in terms of official position, Mu Bei is the first-rank governor, with real power, while Wei Tingyu is subordinate to the governor, and even if he is the boss, he is only a third-rank official.
A bunch of people just waiting to die. In this comparison, Wei Tingyu seems to have lost a bit completely.
Based on the above and the etiquette, when you arrived at the door of someone's house, you should get off the sedan. Unexpectedly, Wei Tingyu had no intention of moving and followed him. But these subordinates were also a little embarrassed. The master is not the kind of rude person, but
Sometimes the things they do are really confusing. What they do is inherently offending. Although the situation tonight is different, I just want to ask about some things, but you are so high-spirited that you still don’t know.
I thought you were here to cause trouble. Do you have a grudge against King Dingbei or something?
These lovely subordinates obviously discovered the truth unintentionally.
In Wei Tingyu's eyes, King Dingbei was not his enemy. He asked his wife to save his life and took advantage of his wife. It was a heinous crime. Not to mention it was just a high-profile act, and he did not directly fabricate evidence for him to get him.
That's very kind.
Therefore, this jealous and possessive man, no matter how smart and wise he is at other times, is unreasonable and even childish to the extreme.
Speaking of which, Prince Wei did not have the ability to predict the future, because he had made up his mind not to recognize Xiaocao. At other times, he was indifferent, just like an outsider. He didn't care whether he could offend or not, and he didn't care whether he would leave bad people behind.
Impression, so that what he does today, the person he offends will either become a stumbling block or a pit in the future. They will try every means to prevent him from being with Xuan'er. Even after they get married, each one of them will have sinister intentions.
Break them up.
When I look back on it now, will I regret it?
In short, at this moment, Wei Tingyu was carried into the Dingbei County Prince's Mansion through the gate, and his target was directly designated the main courtyard of the North Prince. He did not alert anyone else, but the old concubine was already waiting.
Seeing the battle, the old concubine couldn't help but frowned, her face looked a little ugly, and she felt even more unhappy. Even people from Kaipingwei dared to be so arrogant in their palace? Their palace had not committed anything.
.
When Wei Tingyu controlled the wheelchair and got out of the sedan chair, the old concubine was a little surprised, but the unhappiness in her heart did not ease. Bad words and deeds are not the reason for your lack of etiquette.
Wei Tingyu bowed his hands to the old concubine, "Wei Tingyu, the younger son of the Pingyang Hou Mansion, has met the old concubine. I visited late at night and caused too much disturbance. Please forgive me for this."
The only person who has a close relationship with Dingbei County Prince's Mansion is Wen Renjia. For many invitations from the upper class circles, the old concubine basically just goes with the ceremony and does not participate. She is not interested in the affairs of each family's house. The affairs of Pingyang Marquis Mansion naturally
I don't know, at most I know that there is a bad son in their family.
The old concubine was a little puzzled at the moment. Although this man looked sick, his features were pure and he seemed to have a cold temperament. He did not look like the kind of arrogant and uneducated person who occasionally did inappropriate things.
, it seems to be full of violations.
"Master Wei, why are you here?" The old concubine knew something about it, but she couldn't guarantee that it wasn't something else.
"Ask some things from King Dingbei." He said King Dingbei, with a hint of emotion in his tone.
The old concubine was keenly aware of it, but her grandson probably had no interaction with the Prince Pingyang, right? "Mr. Wei is not feeling well, so why bother working at night and visiting during the day? I will also sweep the couch at Dingbei County Prince's Mansion to welcome you."
This is also a very unhappy point. They are sitting in the palace of Dingbei County and they have nothing to say to others. But what does it mean that you came here so late at night? If someone who doesn't know notices it,
I don’t know what the association will be. Besides, her grandson is seriously injured and needs to recuperate, but she insists on disturbing him at night. He doesn’t get enough rest and recovers slowly. Who is responsible?
"Forgive me, old concubine. After all, this junior is in the name of the Supervisor and is secretly taking over the affairs of Kaiping Wei. Sometimes it is necessary to be more covert." Wei Tingyu explained unhurriedly.
The old lady reluctantly accepted his words.
But those who knew the truth later couldn't help complaining in their hearts. The master lied so casually. He was obviously afraid of bumping into the madam during the day. He was so selfish and yet he spoke so high-sounding.
"In that case, Mr. Wei, please go see my grandson, and I will not accompany him."
Although she has been sitting in charge of the Prince's Palace in Beijun, she is still a woman, and it is difficult to interfere with external affairs. Moreover, she has not been to Northern Xinjiang for many years. She knows nothing about what is going on and is not suitable to get involved.
"I deeply apologize for disturbing the old concubine's rest. I hope it will not affect the old concubine's continued sleep. Otherwise, it will be my fault."
This son was very respectful to her and showed some concern for his elders. He was indeed a well-educated person. Therefore, if he did something that was not etiquette, was it really just related to her grandson? He looked calm and steady.
, why do you do things that only a child would do? The old concubine wondered for a moment, are the young people today different from when they were young?
King Dingbei was already waiting in the room. He lit two lamps and the room seemed a little dark.
Surprisingly, King Dingbei was actually sitting on his back, even though there were cushions behind him, but it was quite incredible.
"I've met King Dingbei." Compared to when he introduced himself to the old concubine, he was much colder now, and the gesture of raising his hands seemed a bit perfunctory. His eyes looked directly at King Dingbei. It can be said that
It's quite offensive.
King Dingbei was puzzled. He could clearly feel that this unknown person in Kaipingwei was hostile to him. They must have never been in contact with each other. Where did this hostility come from?
It makes no sense to say that they have different positions and are political enemies. Their family has no connection with civil servants, and they have not participated in the factional disputes between the princes. Because they have always guarded the northern border, they have no conflicts of interest with other generals.
"I personally think it would be better for King Dingbei to lie down."
King Dingbei was stunned. He was obviously hostile to him, but now he cares about him?
"It is not easy to rescue King Dingbei. King Dingbei forces himself to sit up even though it is not appropriate for him to stand up. No one will think anything of you, only that you are wasting the efforts of the doctor. If you are accidentally injured again, you will have to let him go."
Are the doctors busy with you?"
This is indeed true, but why does it sound a little weird? It seems that you are completely standing in the position of a doctor? So, is he someone who is familiar with the fourth girl Wenren?
As long as he said so, King Dingbei didn't show any pretense and just lay back down. However, because there was no third person present, King Dingbei lay back down by himself. His movements seemed slow and difficult. It was obviously a very simple movement, but it took a long time.
After a while, there were even beads of sweat on my forehead.
Wei Tingyu put his hands naturally on his legs, his posture was upright, and he just looked at him coldly, with no intention of calling anyone in to help.
After King Dingbei lay down, he breathed out gently.
Then the two began a formal "confrontation". Facing the enemy, Wei Tingyu did not do anything childish and inappropriate. He would neither lose people nor lose the battle. From the time he worked for the emperor, his exposure to related matters became more and more
The more he handles, the more he handles it. The accumulation and talent make him very keen on certain issues. Otherwise, he would not have noticed that spies from other countries obtained information about many officials from Qi Dynasty.
Therefore, at the beginning, King Dingbei was still narrating. Later, Wei Tingyu made in-depth and detailed inquiries. Every detail was clearly understood. Some places were obviously just small problems, but generally they were not fundamental at all.
He can't find it, but he can. He can also make small problems and loopholes bigger and bring out more problems, so that people find that these small problems are actually quite critical. If they are missing a little bit, it will be very important.
It's hard to connect things completely.
King Dingbei was speechless when he was asked. Not to mention that his strongest field was war, but also that he was seriously injured at that time and was low on energy. Later, he was injured in an accident, and it was as if he couldn't go and ask more questions.
too much.
"Does King Dingbei only know this? In this case, the general situation is not understood."
Wei Tingyu's tone was calm, but King Dingbei felt inexplicably that he seemed to be saying: Why are you so useless?
Even though I was trying to determine the character of King Bei, I couldn't help but move my lips. I really want to ask, where did I offend you?
"The relevant personnel are detained in Northern Xinjiang by King Dingbei, right?"
"right."
"Then, please give me a warrant from King Dingbei. Tomorrow, I will send someone to Northern Xinjiang to take the person into custody."
"Can you write it tomorrow and have it sent to Kaiping Wei Yamen?"
"But, sorry for bothering you, King Dingbei will take a rest and say goodbye."
After Wei Tingyu finished speaking, he asked Wen Xin to come in and left without looking at King Dingbei again.
After they left, the people who had been serving King Dingbei also came in quickly and breathed a sigh of relief when they found that their prince was fine.
"What is this for?" King Dingbei was puzzled.
"My lord, it's nothing. I just thought that the adult in the wheelchair had a cold and solemn look on his face, which looked a little scary. I thought what you were talking about was not going well."
Was it smooth or not? It was considered smooth or not.
King Dingbei was slightly distracted. He had to admit that this young man, whose name he did not know and what position he held in Kaiping, was very good and outstanding. Although he did not know why he was hostile to him, it did not hinder him.
The admiration for the other person is that it is a pity to see that he is not in good health and cannot perform well. And now that he is like this, he even feels a little sympathy for each other. However, he seems to be the same as Miss Wenren.
You know me well, haven't you had Miss Wenren treat you before?
Miss Wenren can cure me of my own situation. Is it possible that the other party's situation is worse than his?
The maid tucked King Dingbei into a quilt. After all, King Dingbei was currently weak and needed more rest to recover faster. He gradually started to feel sleepy again.
However, Wei Tingyu's situation outside was not so wonderful. They were only a few feet away from each other.
Strong, and the location he was in happened to be the darkest place, and the attendants in front and side blocked part of his body. However, he was immediately confused by the fact that Xuan'er actually lived in King Dingbei's yard.
Frowning, if word spreads, will Xuan'er's reputation be lost?
"It's so late. Is Prince Wei still at work?"
"I asked King Dingbei about something." Wei Tingyu tried his best to keep calm and not do unnecessary things. "Did we affect the girl's rest?"
"No, I just had a dream. I dreamed that he came to me and was standing very close to me, but I couldn't see his face clearly."
