At the end of the court meeting, King Jin returned to the imperial study, and several people also came to the imperial study together, bowed and took their seats.
"We have met Wei Yuan today, how do you feel?"
On the left hand side of the King of Jin is a clear and handsome man whose age cannot be discerned. He has a sense of being at ease wherever he goes. It seems that whether he is in the court or sleeping in the mountains, it cannot affect his state of mind. This man is a mature man.
King, he was promoted to true king a hundred years ago.
Opposite King Cheng is a slightly younger-looking man. His eyes are like lightning, and his whole person is like an unsheathed sword. His aura is extremely sharp. But this sword seems to be integrated with the heaven and earth, clearly right in front of you.
, but you don’t feel its threat at all until the moment it is chopped off.
This person is the King of England, he is also a member of the Western Jin Dynasty clan, he has also cultivated to the imperial realm, and he is a key figure in turning the tide in the near future.
The two of them lowered their heads to the left and right, and beside the King of Jin stood Liu Quangong.
King Jin asked, and King Cheng said: "I am rebellious in my bones and do not want to be humiliated. But it is normal for young people. Only with this spirit can you achieve such a record."
The King of England also said: "With him guarding the country in the Western Regions, our pressure will be much less. I think we can transfer Yue Jinshan back to the northern Xinjiang. There are no troops available in the north now, and we urgently need to replenish them."
The right minister said: "This boy is born with a rebellious nature, so we must guard against him! If he gets bigger in the future, I'm afraid it will be difficult to control him."
The King of England's face immediately darkened, but his right minister acted as if he hadn't seen it.
The King of Jin remained calm and said: "Several people have reported that Wei Yuan has close contacts with the State of Zhao and is disobedient. What do you think?"
Zuo Xiang said: "Qing Ming had nothing when he was first established. The Xu family blocked the eastward trade route, so he had no choice but to go south to exchange what he needed with Zhao. The reports given by several censors were biased."
King Jin was a little surprised and said: "I didn't expect you to speak for Wei Yuan. Then tell me, what kind of regulations should be used against him?"
Zuo Xiang said: "There is a lot of criticism of Wei Yuan in the court. In fact, it is because he is not from a noble family and comes from a poor family. Secondly, he is still young. Many people in the palace are old enough to be his grandfather, so he does not like it. Besides, Zilai
There is a saying that commoners are only of the seventh rank, but when Wei Yuan became an official, he was of the second rank, which will inevitably arouse people's jealousy."
King Jin nodded slightly.
The Zuo Prime Minister added: "I thought that Wei Yuan should be restrained around Ningxi, but this restraint was for everyone in the court to see, to calm the public opinion, and it was not really to restrict Wei Yuan. Don't trust the people you employ, and don't use the people you suspect.
, our Jin Dynasty is now focusing on the north, and we might as well leave the west to Wei Yuan. The Wu clan suddenly slowed down their offensive for some reason, but sooner or later they will come back. The Xu family couldn't defend the Western Region at first, but Wei Yuan can.
Live?"
King Jin gave a low smile and said, "That's it."
In the Prince's Mansion, the current Prince is sitting behind the desk, with a row of civil servants and military officers sitting on both sides, like a small court meeting.
The Prince's Mansion is not far from the Royal Palace. It is larger than the ordinary Prince's Mansion and not much smaller than the Royal Palace. According to the Jin Dynasty system, the Prince should have lived in the Qian Palace in the palace. However, in recent years, the Prince has begun to share the state affairs and is allowed to open a palace.
The number of civil servants and military officials in the palace increased day by day, and it was extremely inconvenient to enter and exit the palace, so the prince moved out.
At this time, the scribe who was only in his early thirties looked down and said: "That Wei Yuan is wild and untamable, and naturally does not want to live under others. I think there is no need to recruit him. This is a sword without a hoe, and it will be wounded if you hold it!"
A scribe on the opposite side sneered: "Isn't it possible that Shilang Zhang said this because he didn't overpower him?"
Zhang Shilang was immediately furious: "Liu Hanlin! If you can overwhelm him, I will serve you a drink and apologize immediately!"
An old minister smoothed things over, and then said: "Wei Yuan was neither born into a noble family nor a disciple of a saint. Wouldn't it chill the nobles of the world to be suddenly promoted to such a high position? Secondly, he is still young and his own cultivation is mediocre. Obviously,
There is still a lack of tempering. What he is today is all supported by the Taichu Palace, which is his own ability? It is ridiculous that such a young person can be a second-rank official! Your Majesty's thinking this time is really wrong."
Another veteran minister also said: "Whoever recruits Wei Yuan will be an enemy of the world's gentry and an enemy of the world's literati!"
The prince was silent.
At this time, the room was so full that there was almost no room for a new seat.
When Wei Yuan returned to the post house, the sky was bright and the attendants served breakfast.
The morning dynasty started early and ended early. The breakfast in the post house was also divided into two meals, one before going to the morning dynasty and the other after returning from the morning dynasty. Lunch was another meal.
On the big table in front of Wei Yuan, there were twelve dishes, eight small plates, six staple dishes, and four soups, a total of thirty dishes.
This is the breakfast of a first-class official.
Wei Yuan looked at the table full of dishes and felt a little startled. Then he called Cui Yu, Xu Yi and other disciples from the aristocratic family over, and together they cleaned the table full of dishes.
For these people who came from a wealthy family, breakfast like this is really common. But in the past few months in the realm, everyone has been greedy for a long time and basically didn’t eat anything good, so all the children of the aristocratic families all transformed into
Hungry wolf, you can't tell where you are from at all.
Before noon, Wei Yuan's reputation for being vulgar and ignorant of etiquette spread again.
After breakfast, Wei Yuan came to the study room of the post house and spread a map on the table. This is the map of the newly designated counties of the Western Regions. The four counties are still there, but the boundaries have changed, and there are three counties in the southeast.
After retreating, Ningxi County turned into a crescent moon. Ten miles outside Quliu Town was the jurisdiction of Dingxi Jiedu Envoy.
It's just that although Ningxi County is only a narrow strip, with the narrowest point being no more than ten miles, it is like a thin skin that wraps up the boundary. Theoretically, the Ningxi County Governor can set up cards to completely block the boundary. In fact, Yuan Qingyan has done this before
Yes, it's just that all the checkpoints were blocked by Wei Yuan's men disguised as horse bandits.
At this time, if the King of Jin wants to win over Wei Yuan, he will turn a blind eye. But one day there is no need to use Wei Yuan, these things will be revealed again and he will be convicted again.
Wei Yuan's eyes fell on Anzhao County. The Western Jin Dynasty set up a boundary stone here, but he didn't know the extent of the boundary, and he didn't know what it would be like when the two boundaries met.
After a moment, Wei Yuan put away the map and continued to observe the sword.
Today, when the court encounters a secret hand, Wei Yuan relies on his physical strength to bear it. Since he became a Taoist, he has rarely used his physical strength, almost forgetting that he still has a top-notch physical body.
The Dao power of Wei Yuan who was promoted to Wei Yuan is even more vast. For example, the rapid water blade technique is purely based on pouring out a huge amount of Dao power to overwhelm people with force. During this period of time, Wei Yuan firmly believes that one force can defeat ten masters and use clumsiness to defeat skill.
I forget that besides Dao power, I have countless means.
For example, the sword energy of the Three Immortal Plants and the Laurel Immortal Tree can be used to some extent, but its other magical uses have basically not been developed.
The Dharma Warrior has endless magical uses when used properly. Although the Taoist Yin and Yang cannot be moved, her breath can be used as the core of many formations, and can also enhance the artistic conception, making the originally ordinary Taoist moves become lofty in artistic conception.
Another example is the Eternal Qianqiu Sword, which is the true method that points directly to the great road. It can be unified by just relying on the true meaning of three moves, but Wei Yuan has not even scratched the surface of it yet.
Even if there is not much Tao power left, there are countless ways to play. For example, although Wei Yuan's Tao power is not even ten, it is still stronger than the ordinary heaven-level Tao foundation. But he deliberately suppresses the Tao power, and presses it down in one breath.
It has reached the level of ordinary people. It would be interesting if someone really treated Wei Yuan, a local monk.
In addition, he and Zhao Tong told each other sincerely that only 23% of his Tao power remained. If Zhao Tong believed it, he would naturally seriously underestimate the upper limit of Wei Yuan's normal Tao power.
Thousands of miles of rivers and mountains cannot be realized, and it is truly an unprecedented experience. Wei Yuan seems to have opened up a new world before his eyes, and has a glimpse of infinite mysteries.
Wei Yuan was not in a hurry and watched the sword calmly. His Tao power and his own control gradually improved as he watched the sword.
At noon, Wei Yuan finished his sword watching, and his attendants sent two greeting cards.
One letter is from the King of Wei, who is the fifth son of the current King of Jin. The other letter is from the King of England.
These two greetings are the highlight.
Although the King of Wei is the fifth son, he is more than 20 years older than the crown prince. It is said that in his early years, the King of Jin concentrated on his immortal career and rarely entered the harem, so he did not have many heirs. It was not until the first queen died of illness a few decades after he ascended the throne that he
He changed his mind and his descendants gradually increased.
After being granted the title of Xi, the mother of the King of Wei became the second queen of the King of Jin. However, she had a bad fate. She died of illness in the second year after being granted the title of Xi, leaving only the son of the King of Wei.
The King of Wei has been smart since he was a child. He can learn everything immediately and has good luck. It is said that he is not inferior to the prince.
He has reached the threshold of the Dharma. But he is determined to imitate the sages and suppress his realm. He wants to polish the Dharma so that he can reach heaven in one step.
The King of Jin obviously liked the King of Wei more. As the King of Wei was about to become the Prime Minister, there were already some rumors about deposing the crown prince.
The King of England is one of the two true kings of the clan. He is currently a general, in charge of the northern military, and controls the border armies. The Snow-Taking Army brought by the King of England in his early years is even more elite in the world, and was once ranked among the Nine Armies of Datang.
However, later the King of England was convicted and imprisoned, and many of the lieutenant generals of the Taxue Army were implicated. The 100,000-strong army was also dispersed and divided into other armies. The Taxue Army was removed from the Ninth Army from then on.
The King of England was imprisoned for ten years before being released, but he was also under house arrest. It was not until the recent war situation deteriorated that the King of Jin re-activated the King of England to lead the northern military. After recent months of hard fighting, the defeat was finally stopped.
The King of Wei has a reputation as a courteous and virtuous corporal, and it is a foregone conclusion that he will actually be appointed as the Jiedushi after meeting the emperor. The banquet hosted by the King of Wei was actually expected by Wei Yuan. No matter what the King of Wei was thinking, he had to do something for the sake of his reputation.
But Wei Yuan couldn't understand the invitation from the King of England. This man was a real big shot. He was able to single-handedly lead an army from nothing back then, which was simply unparalleled!
Later, his conviction and imprisonment were also full of doubts. When Wei Yuan looked up important figures in the court, he could not find any information about this period of history.
The King of Wei's banquet is tonight, and the King of England's dinner is tomorrow. There is no conflict between the two.
So Wei Yuan calmed down and watched the sword all afternoon. If nothing unexpected happens, tonight will be a turbulent night, and the drama in the capital has just begun.
Chapter completed!
