(Everyone, it’s not gold to be silent here, let’s go for comments!)

November soon entered. When Wei Wuji's troops returned to Wu'an, the war between Wei and Zheng had not ended.

Qi State had no idea of ​​fighting to the death with the Wei army, which made them always fearful when fighting and could not do their best to retreat and make plans for gains and losses.

So Wei and Qi were stalemate in Zheng, and the biggest victim was undoubtedly Zheng.

The State of Zheng not only had to face the conquest of the Wei army, but the Qi army was not friendly to them. The State of Zheng's State of Zheng directly lost control of other parts of the country except for the surrounding area of ​​the capital.

In other words, because of the battle between the two major powers of Wei and Qi, the original Zheng State had been dead in name only.

This situation is like the Chen State in the past. When Wei State attacked Chen State, Chen State introduced Qin State troops to help. Qin State's attack on Chen State's land directly led to the demise of Chen State.

In this era, the survival of small countries depends entirely on the relationship between big countries. When the power between big countries is unbalanced, it is time for these small countries to die.

Fortunately, as the atmosphere became colder today, the scale of the war between Wei and Qi in Zheng decreased relatively. After losing the opponent of Qi, Zheng Chang, who led the troops, harassed Zhengdu.

After Wei Wuji returned to Wu'an, he found that his task was extremely large, and he needed to review the handling of major matters for several consecutive months.

Therefore, Wei Wuji's daily tasks were not only in court to listen to the affairs, but also in court to meet the ministers, and in the gaps between them, he kept reading the memorials.

In recent court discussions, Wei Wuji focused his main energy on national finances.

Simply put, after several months of foreign wars, almost all the wealth that Wei State has saved since Wei Wuji ascended the throne has been smashed out.

But at this time, no one said that Wei Wuji was not because he received a lot of rewards from his investment.

The State of Wei not only captured the State of Tang, Xiao, but also defeated the State of Qin and occupied the territory of its two counties.

Moreover, unlike the land of Qi, the Qin army suffered heavy losses this time and had lost its strategic initiative. In the future, they could only be passively beaten.

On November 25, Wu'an's snow was covered with snow, which is a rare sight in the Central Plains.

After leaving the court, Wei Wuji did not leave important officials to continue discussing matters as usual, because he wanted to give himself a vacation today.

Now most of the matters that should be discussed have been discussed, and there are roughly accusations for next year's arrangements. There are no major mistakes in state affairs overall, so Wei Wuji dared to rest.

On the way down the court, Wei Wuji did not use a sedan chair and walked slowly on the palace road accompanied by a group of eunuchs.

The pressure accumulated over the years has caused the eunuchs and maids along the way to kneel down on the ground when they see Wei Wuji from afar, and dare not be disrespectful at all.

It was not until Wei Wuji left that these people dared to get up from the ground and then were busy with what they had on hand.

Along the way, all the situations encountered were like this, which made Wei Wuji feel very bored or lonely.

Because this made him feel that he seemed to be the only one in this world, and he couldn't even find someone to speak.

At this time, Yu Zhong, who was following Wei Wuji, said: "Your Majesty, it's cold outside, you have to take care of yourself!"

Finally someone spoke, which awakened Wei Wuji from loneliness, but the surrounding environment was a little unfamiliar.

Wei Wuji was walking aimlessly, and no one in the palace could stop him, so he walked to a place that he rarely went to on weekdays.

So he asked, "Where is this?"

Wei Wuji couldn't recognize where this was, but Yu Zhong was very familiar with the palace, so he said, "Your Majesty, this is outside the worship palace!"

The worship hall, as the name suggests, is a place where the ancestors of the Wei Dynasty were worshipped.

Although there was a Taimiao in the State of Wei, it was only visited during the great sacrifice. In order to facilitate worship, this worship hall was set up in the Wei Palace.

At this time, Yu Zhong continued, "Your Madam, my wife has just sent someone to invite you there, or not?"

Wei Wuji's harem now shows signs of palace fighting. Even though he is determined to stop it, intrigues still occur one after another.

Therefore, Wei Wuji in the harem did not want to go now, so he heard him say, "Since you have arrived outside the worship hall, then go in and worship!"

Yu Zhong didn't say much, so he followed Wei Wuji and walked into the gate of the Fengsheng Palace.

When you enter the worship gate, the eunuchs on duty are arranged in an orderly manner and kneel on both sides of the road.

After passing through the crowd, Wei Wuji slowly walked up the steps, staring at the three big words "Sacrificial Hall" on the door frame of the main hall.

Through the door, Wei Wuji could see the dense candlelight swaying inside, as well as the throne of the ancestor of the Wei Kingdom worshipped on the eight shrines.

After entering the hall, Wei Wuji stopped Yu Zhong and others from following, and shouted out more than a dozen eunuchs serving in the hall.

So only Wei Wuji was left in the hall, as well as his eight ancestors.

The eight shrines are located in the middle, and the founding king of Wei State is Wei Dingbo, who was also a hero who competed for the Great Zhou world.

Wei Wuji knelt down slowly on the cushion in front of Wei Dingbo's shrine and bowed three times to the throne on the shrine.

Unlike the quiet outside, in this hall, he found that he could feel the peace of mind.

The ancestors of Wei are worshipped here, and only in front of these people can he not have the qualification to be arrogant.

In other words, he is the smallest here, and this experience is completely different from being outside the temple.

After worshiping Dingbo, Wei Wuji kowtowed to other ancestors continuously until he came to the throne of Zhaohou.

Still kneeling on the cushion, Wei Wuji looked at the throne on the shrine, and at this time he felt that the throne was also looking at him.

Silently, Wei Wuji felt a little sad. When Zhaohou was alive, they had almost no chance to be alone.

After a long time, Wei Wuji suddenly spoke, "Father... I'm afraid you never thought in your life that your successor will be me!"

"Before you die, you said to your son... The person you want the most is the third brother!"

Speaking of this, Wei Wuji couldn't help but smile bitterly, and then said, "Do you know that this sentence is like a thorn to your son. In your eyes, isn't it as good as the third brother?"

As if he knew Zhaohou’s original consideration, Wei Wuji continued: “Son, I know that the third brother is close to the aristocratic race, and I am against the aristocratic race. You choose the third brother just to pass on the throne and inherit the throne!”

This is indeed true. At the beginning, the gap between Wei Jianlin and Wei Wuji was obvious, and Wei Hou still believed in Wei Jianlin, so he had such considerations.

Zhaohou did not have the prestige of becoming a marquis, so he could not choose Wei Wuji to succeed the throne, as this would likely lead to unstable inheritance of the throne and even a major disaster.

The hall was quiet, and only the eight gods listened to Wei Wuji's words silently. I'm afraid that only here can Wei Wuji express his feelings.

Wei Wuji continued, "But look, after my son succeeded to the throne, does anyone in the aristocratic race dare to jump around?"

"My son taught them to be ministers with the butcher knife in his hand... Now my son can tell you with confidence that it was wrong for you to choose the third brother!"

Not to mention it, Wei Wuji was very happy when he said this. His mood at this moment was just like he had scored 100 points in his previous life, and he felt like reporting his grades to his parents.

Speaking of this, Wei Wuji continued: "However, my son has something to let you down. You told your son to take care of all the brothers and sisters, but... the second brother is still dead!"

Before Weihou died, the only thing he told him was to tell him not to kill all his brothers.

Wei Wuji was admitting his mistake, but the Marquis of Wei on the shrine could no longer be angry, and his throne could only look at Wei Wuji quietly.

The so-called admitting mistakes is just Wei Wujixiang's words, so he was not regretful or ashamed at this time, but was just telling a fact.

After being silent in the hall for a long time, Wei Wuji smiled and then continued: "But my son has achieved considerable achievements in the past four years of succession to the throne!"

After achieving achievements, how can we not show off in front of our father? This is what Wei Wuji thought at this time.

Then he heard Wei Wuji say: "In the north of Wei State, his son has completely eliminated the threat of the Hu people, and the Donghu and the Xiongnu will no longer be in chaos!"

"To the west of Wei State, my son even destroyed Chen Xiaotang's three kingdoms, besieged and killed the main army of Qin, so that there would be no more powerful enemies in the west of our Wei State!"

Speaking of this, Wei Wuji said confidently: "Even if his son has such merits, I believe his father will forgive his son's faults!"

But Wei Wuji couldn't wait for an answer!

Shaking his head, Wei Wuji said intimately that he was talking more and more, but after saying this, the depression and depression in his heart over the past few days disappeared a lot.

But Wei Wuji was not going to say anything else, so he would leave some words to come back.

Wei Wuji kowtowed to the position of Zhaohou in the shrine three times, then stood up and turned to walk outside the hall.
Chapter completed!
