spring as old

Chapter 47

The rain is still falling, as fine as silk, it doesn't seem to be heavy, but when people go out, their clothes will be wet.

The emperor sent Puyang and Wei Xiu outside the Xuande Hall, Dou Hui felt that it was cold and damp outside, so he hurriedly asked for a cloak.The emperor looked up at the gray sky outside the eaves, and said in a manly voice: "Mr. Wei has a measure, and he shouldn't force it. However, it is a pity to waste the years before that."

There is no time to attack Qi and Song Dynasties, and talents cannot be left in the wilderness. The emperor tried to persuade him.

Wei Xiu declined politely: "Everyone has their own ambitions, I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

The emperor's eyes darkened, he was a little unhappy, and he didn't look at Wei Xiu, he was still looking at the increasingly rapid rain outside, and said calmly: "The famous scholar Chen Du once had ambitions and went astray. Yu Chaotang."

Why did Chen Du become Wei Chen? Because his three younger brothers were all dismissed from office and returned home. His parents and family members took turns persuading him not to damage the family's future because of his own ambition.Angry in his heart, he moved out of his home and changed his residence, but in the end he compromised and entered the Chongwen Museum as an editor.

Listen to the emperor citing Chen Du as an example.Pu Yang's eyebrows twitched, he endured it and didn't bother to look at Wei Xiu.The eunuch who took the cloak came over quickly, Pu Yang took it personally and put it on for the emperor.The emperor pulled up his collar, glanced at Wei Xiu, and said with a smile, "Of course, sir is different from Chen Du, he is rotten and childish, and you have the world in mind, how can you compare him?"

Pu Yang chuckled, as if he was helping the emperor: "It's different. Chen Du is inherently respectable, but he doesn't understand righteousness as well as Mr."

The emperor's expression improved when he heard the words "Shen Ming Da Yi".Wei Xiu glanced at Pu Yang, in terms of finding the emperor's veins, no one can compare to this His Highness, she followed suit and said: "If you have achieved something in your studies, you will serve the world, I have a clear heart."

But he didn't let go of wanting to enter the dynasty.

The emperor was somewhat relieved, and said with a smile: "Sir, let's go, come back tomorrow!"

Back in the mansion, it was almost noon.

Pu Yang didn't say a word all the way.She held an umbrella and walked beside Wei Xiu, protecting her from the rain.The small courtyard was right in front of him, Wei Xiu thought that the princess would stay for dinner as usual, but unexpectedly, she stopped in front of the courtyard gate.

Wei Xiu was puzzled, raised her head in doubt, her eyes touched the princess's shoulder, only to see her body on the other side outside the umbrella, her clothes were already thin and wet.

"Your Highness..." She held on to the handle of the umbrella, trying to move it to Puyang's side, but Puyang took her hand.The fingertips felt cool and were still wet from the rain, as soon as they were pasted, Wei Xiu was so excited that she wanted to shrink her hands.Pu Yang held her tightly.

Her palms were also cold, she must have caught a cold.

"Your Highness, go and change your clothes first." Wei Xiu couldn't get rid of it, so she just stopped struggling, and persuaded her in a gentle voice.

Pu Yang didn't speak, she just looked at Wei Xiu, and Wei Xiu also looked back at her.

But their demeanor is different, Pu Yang is upright, without concealing his gentleness, the brilliance in his eyes is like the river water on a spring night, reflecting the soft moonlight.In contrast, Wei Xiu's relentless evasion seemed to be a pretentious evasion, like a deserter who abandons his weapon and leaves, but does not admit his weakness.

Wei Xiu finally turned his eyes away.

Pu Yang let go of his hand, put the handle of the umbrella into Wei Xiu's palm, and let her hold it.Wei Xiu felt an indescribable anxiety, she endured it, and said in a gentle voice: "Your Highness, please enter the house to shelter from the rain."

Pu Yang didn't agree, she smiled suddenly: "Mr. seems to be very afraid of looking at me." Wei Xiu seemed to be hit in a weakness in her heart, and became even more irritable, looking away without saying a word.

Pu Yang pursed his lips and smiled, without forcing her, shook his head, then turned and left.She walked leisurely and walked away in the rain. The palace people behind her hurriedly held up umbrellas to protect her from the rain. Surrounded by a group of people, she quickly disappeared at the end of the path.

The rain suddenly became faster, and pea-sized dots fell and hit the ground, splashing water everywhere.Wei Xiu looked at the direction Pu Yang was leaving, closed her eyes, and said quietly, "Go in."

The next day, Wei Xiu was not summoned, but Pu Yang was summoned to the palace.

The emperor summoned Puyang for two reasons, one of which is how to make the best use of Wei Xiuren.Although everyone has their own ambitions, as an emperor, he always does not want to see talented people shrinking in the mountains and forests, and does not want to serve the country.

After days of rain, the water in Taiye Pond rose up. The grass beside the pool was green and fresh, and the willow trees had long branches, which swayed slowly with the wind.

The emperor walked on the stone path by the pool, and said slowly to Pu Yang: "None of your elder brothers knows why I suppressed the family and raised the poor family. Instead, because of the power of the family, I got involved with them. But you know, for A Dad has done a lot of things, but he has never invited a single credit."

A few days ago, Pu Yang had recommended Jiang Zhen and several people to the emperor. They were all from poor families and possessed great talents. When the grades come, think again about promotion.

"Those people are all good, but now they don't care, and the courtiers don't say anything." The emperor has accumulated power for eighteen years, and he has a few small officials of the sixth and seventh ranks, and the courtiers have given him this face, and no one talks too much, " These people, who came from your sect, can be considered as the seal of the princess mansion, so don't worry about them going to flatter the royal families again."

When talking about the kings, the emperor's complexion darkened, showing a deep hatred of iron being weak.

Pu Yang would not throw trouble at this time, nor would he rush to persuade the emperor to consider the emperor's grandson, he just smiled.

"And Mr. Wei," the emperor stopped, frowned, turned his head to look at Puyang and said, "Do you think he really doesn't want to be an official, or is he like those people who are just trying to get fame and fame, and set a price on the ground?"

He was quite strange, Chen Du didn't want to be an official because he didn't want to serve Wei Chen and keep his obstinate loyalty, but Wei Xiu was obviously not like that.He entered the capital and lived in the princess mansion, which shows that he does not have the heart of entering the world, but being able to present "On Migration of the Army" shows that he also has the heart of court.But if he really wants to become an official, he doesn't want to?

The emperor didn't believe Wei Xiu's rhetoric. If he wanted to become a minister in troubled times, he couldn't become an official first. He had to wait for the war between the North and the South?It was obviously an intentional evasion.But the emperor has been the son of heaven for so many years, and he has seen more than a thousand people of all kinds?Looking over with his eyes, how many people can play tricks under his nose?Whether it's true or not, he can tell that Wei Xiu is really as he said, and she doesn't want to be an official in the court.

Such a contradiction confused the emperor.

At this time, the wind is calm and the water is sparkling in the Taiye Pond. There is a pavilion in front of it. This pavilion is a good place to watch fish. Every time you lean on the railing and sprinkle a couple of baits, it will always attract groups of fish.

Pu Yang looked at that place, supported the emperor and walked over slowly, and said in his mouth: "I have been watching for several months, thinking that Mr. Wei has the desire to guide the world, but he really has no heart to become an official in the court."

"Oh?" The emperor sighed, quite surprised.

It is unheard of to have a heart for the world but no heart for an official career.

Is it not for the purpose of giving advice to the country?

The emperor sneered: "If it's as my son said, it's really a strange person."

He doesn't like glory, he doesn't admire power, and he only points out the country for the sake of pointing out the country, what a strange person.

Pu Yang also laughed, the pavilion was not far away, she turned her head to signal the palace people to bring some fish food, then helped the emperor into the pavilion and sat on the railing.

A gust of wind just blew up on the pool, which was cool but warm, making people feel peaceful.

"At first I was also surprised, thinking that she was like Chen Du, who would not let go of the previous court, so she asked for an invitation. In the end, she agreed immediately. I knew that although this person is in the mountains, his heart is in the capital. Empress Dowager was worried about Qiang Rong, so I mentioned it to her. She devoted herself for several days and stayed behind closed doors to present "On the Migration of Soldiers". In this way, I thought that she was just waiting for a chance when she was interested in an official career. "

The emperor was engrossed in hearing this, and seeing Puyang stop, he asked, "What about the back?"

Pu Yang smiled: "Every time we talk about government affairs with her, she is very interested, but when it comes to recommending her to be an official, she always declines with a smile."

It is nothing more than a refusal to fall once or twice, and it is not modesty, let alone a posturing.

The emperor thought about it, and the palace servants brought fish food.Pu Yang took it, leaned on the railing, and threw it into the pool.In an instant, countless fish gathered and competed for food.

The emperor seemed to have figured it out, and sighed: "It's a pity, but it's okay, I don't have anything to worry about when he is in your mansion." If there is anything that needs advice, it is very important to invite someone from the princess mansion to the palace. convenient.

The fish food in the pond was exhausted, the fish lingered for a while, then scattered away, Puyang knew it, and he convinced His Majesty.Regardless of her husband's thoughts, she does not want her husband to step into the court.

A talented person who is well-versed in the world is indifferent to fame and fortune, and regards power and wealth as nothing. Her words are often impartial in the eyes of the emperor, and they are more listenable than the words of the ministers in the court. It is very suitable for certain critical moments. last one.

"There is one more thing. It is Mr. Wei's suggestion." As soon as the emperor finished speaking, he sprinkled another handful of fish food into the pond, attracting the fish just now.

Pu Yang took the handkerchief presented by the palace man, wiped his hands, and said respectfully: "Please make it clear, Your Majesty."

"I already have some clues about this matter, and you have to share the rest with me."

"It's great to be able to share my father's worries, as my father said." Pu Yang smiled, showing a happy look.

The emperor couldn't help but relax his heartstrings, but when he thought about it, he felt embarrassed again: "This is not easy. Mr. Wei said that turning resistance into motivation is to use the power of the family. I will come up with a plan to do this.”

After he finished speaking, he looked at Puyang, Puyang just smiled, his eyes were full of understanding.

The emperor smiled and shook his head: "It seems that you have also thought of it. This matter has to be dealt with by your elder brothers. With them taking the lead, the family will not refuse."

Not only will he not refuse, but he may even strive for merit.

The kings are fighting, and the aristocratic family is trying their best to put the prince who supports them on the throne. It is extremely important to win the favor of the emperor for the prince.

Pu Yang made a salute: "I will leave this matter to my minister."

Qiniang was indeed caring.The emperor felt a lot of emotion in his heart, and secretly decided that if this matter came true, he would bestow Puyang generously.

After talking about the business, the emperor also had the thought of feeding the fish, and started chatting with Puyang again, and the one he was talking about was Wei Xiu.The emperor has seen countless people in his life, such as Wei Xiu, this is the first time seeing him.He thought back to yesterday, and suddenly felt: "That Mr. Wei seems familiar. He seems to be alone."

Deep in his memory, there seems to be a person who looks somewhat similar to Wei Xiu.

The author has something to say: Emperor: "That Mr. Wei seems familiar. He seems to be alone."

Wei Xiu: "Shouldn't I be human? (¬_¬)"

Don't need money, don't need officials, you have to guide the world to realize the ideals in your heart, and you are talking about Dao Yan.
