Da Situ, one of the Three Dukes, was one of the three masters of the Tang Dynasty. The Three Dukes were all honorary titles and were not given lightly. Only those who have made great contributions can occupy this position. Under normal circumstances, this position has no real power, but there are always exceptions.
Changsun Wuji held the title of Grand Situ as the right servant, and his position was actually one head higher than that of the prime minister, the Left Servant, Fang Xuanling, the Great Sikong, because at this time, the Third Division and the Taiwei had not been awarded the title.
, Changsun Wuji is actually a member of the court, with a high and powerful position. He is cautious and rarely expresses joy or anger. However, today he was quite happy and laughing. Without him, what gave him the most headache
The marriage of the younger son Changsun Chengliang has finally been finalized - the eldest Sun Chengliang has always relied on his talent and looks down on ordinary women from official families. He is already eighteen years old, but he has always refused to get married, giving Changsun Wuji a headache.
, it’s okay this time, after meeting the Pei family girl with his own eyes, Changsun Chengliang finally nodded, and it was considered that Changsun Wuji’s big idea was settled. No, at this time, he was in the "Misty Rain Building" with his prospective in-laws.
Pei Datong had a great time chatting with each other, discussing matters related to making a decision and even getting married, and laughed heartily from time to time.
"Mr. Pei, it's settled. Mr. Pei will have to leave Beijing in the next few days. Let's decide on the eighteenth day of the first lunar month. After some time, choose an auspicious day, and the dog will go to Luozhou to welcome the bride. Mr. Pei
What do you think?" The details were almost discussed, Changsun Wuji happily stroked his long beard and concluded with a smile on his fat face.
"Everything has been done according to Master Situ's wishes. I have no intention of lowering my rank..." Pei Datong was too late to rejoice at being able to move into the in-laws' house with someone from his current dynasty. There was nothing dissatisfied about him. Just as he was about to agree, he saw someone at the door.
Several people broke in, and the leader was the pale-faced Pei Yan. She was stunned for a moment, stopped before she finished speaking, looked at Pei Yan in surprise and said: "Yan'er, what's wrong with you?"
Although Pei Yan's face was pale, her expression was very calm. She blessed her old father and said firmly: "Father, Yan'er will not marry!"
"What? Yan'er, what did you say?" Pei Datong was stunned for a moment, suddenly became angry, suddenly stood up, stared at Pei Yan with blazing eyes, and asked repeatedly.
"My daughter has said, if you don't marry, you won't marry!" Pei Yan said decisively without flinching, holding her head high.
"You..., I'm so angry, I'll beat you to death, you damn girl!" Pei Datong, who felt that he had lost face, was so angry that he waved his hand and planned to hit Pei Yan, which frightened Changsun Wuji and his son.
He rushed forward and stopped the furious Pei Datong.
"Pei Gong, calm down. It's not too late to discuss things slowly. We can't ruin the girl's family. Come, sit down and talk. Sit down and talk." Although Changsun Wuji was also full of questions, he didn't figure out what happened.
Not wanting to mess up the matter, I hurriedly spoke to comfort Pei Datong, and forced Pei Datong to his seat.
Pei Datong naturally knows that his daughter has always been very opinionated. At this time, one of them is really angry. They are also making a gesture to show to Changsun Wuji. Therefore, Changsun Wuji
As soon as Ji said this, he took advantage of the situation and stepped down, sat down, and panted angrily: "Tell me, tell me, if you don't want to marry someone like Mr. Changsun, then who are you going to marry?"
Look at what the old man asked, even if Pei Yan is in love with someone, it is impossible for him to say it in public? Besides, the matter involves a personal relationship and is related to the Tian family's children. How can Pei Yan say it out loud? The only way is
He closed his lips tightly and stood there without saying a word. Two lines of clear tears flowed down his flawless white jade cheeks, making everyone feel distressed.
Changsun Chengliang is quite talented, handsome, and very conceited. He has never looked down on ordinary women. This time, he was originally very dissatisfied with his father's romantic partner. If he hadn't been forced to do so by Changsun Wuji,
, he didn’t want to come here for a blind date, but after seeing Pei Yan at first sight, his heart softened. Although he had never said a word, he already had thousands of wishes in his heart. At this time, when he saw Pei Yan saying,
Not marrying me, my heart suddenly ached. Seeing Pei Yan in such a sad state again, I felt sad secretly for no reason. He stood up and said: "Miss Yan'er, someone..." After saying this, Changsun Chengliang suddenly said
Feeling that he had nothing to say, he had no choice but to shake his head, sigh, and retreat silently.
Changsun Wuji could naturally see the sadness in his son's heart. He rolled his eyes, stroked his long beard, smiled and looked at Pei Yan who was following behind him dejectedly: "Nephew Pei Shi, what on earth is going on?
Can you tell me about it?"
"This..." The matter involved His Royal Highness the King of Yue, and Pei Yan didn't know whether he should speak out about it. He hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and was about to make up his mind to tell the story of the matter, but he saw the pavilion
There was a noise outside, and the eunuch Gao Yao led several young eunuchs out of the stairwell. Pei Yan immediately knew that something was wrong, his face turned pale, the corners of his mouth kept twitching, and he could no longer speak.
.
When the eldest son Wuji saw Gao Yao entering the pavilion, he didn't care to ask about his children's private affairs anymore. He stood up hurriedly, stepped forward to greet him, and said with cupped hands: "Eunuch Gao, does your Majesty have something to do with this old minister?"
Gao Yao and Changsun Wuji were old acquaintances, and they didn't have much scruples about each other. When Changsun Wuji came up to ask for information, he smiled and shook his head and said: "The Holy One has a decree, but it is not to summon Master Situ.
It's for Captain Pei." As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately stood up straight and loudly announced: "The Holy One has decreed that Captain Pei Datong of Zhechong in Luozhou can come to see you!"
Pei Datong had just met the Holy Spirit a few days ago. Based on his qualifications, there was no possibility of meeting the Holy Spirit again. When he heard the Holy Spirit's call, he was immediately dumbfounded. He was stunned for a while, and then he came back to his senses.
He quickly knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "I accept the order and thank you for your kindness."
"Captain Pei, please excuse me now." Gao Yao was a smart man. When he saw something was wrong with the scene in front of him, he knew that the matter might not be that simple. As soon as Pei Datong thanked him, he immediately urged Pei Datong to come immediately.
leave.
There was no way for the ministers to refuse to obey the call of the Holy One. Although he was complacent and doubtful, Pei Datong did not dare to ask any more questions. He raised his hand to Changsun Wuji and said: "Master Situ, I will go to see the Holy One now. We will discuss everything later."
Already." As soon as he finished speaking, he hurried downstairs, followed closely by a pair of children.
Pei Datong did not dare to ask, but Changsun Wuji had no scruples in this regard. He smiled and raised his hand to Gao Yao and said: "Eunuch Gao, Your Majesty, this is..."
Gao Yao was a smart man, and naturally he would not offend a member of the court like Changsun Wuji. He paused deliberately, and after Pei Datong and his son came downstairs, he whispered: "Your Majesty wants to marry His Highness the King of Yue. Yes."
A girl from the Pei family." As soon as he finished speaking, he hurriedly turned around and went downstairs without waiting for Changsun Wuji to ask.
Although Gao Yao's voice was soft, it hit the heads of Changsun Wuji and his son like a thunderbolt from the blue. They were immediately shocked to the point where they were stunned and couldn't recover for a while. Although Changsun Wuji was shocked, , but he had good self-control and did not lose his composure because of this, but Changsun Chengliang was different. When he heard the news, he felt as if the sky had fallen. His eyes turned red, and tears couldn't stop flowing down. He was silent for a long time, and his heart Ruo was ashen and murmured: "This is impossible, this is impossible, no, this is not true, it cannot be true!"
How could Changsun Wuji not know what his son was thinking? Seeing Changsun Chengliang's heartbroken look at this time, his heart suddenly sank. But he also knew that this matter was not trivial. He was not worried about what would happen to the emperor after the matter broke out. It's not appropriate, but he is worried about Li Zhen, the king of Yue. Without him, Changsun Wuji thinks he has good eyesight, but he still can't see through Li Zhen. Deep in his heart, he really doesn't want to stand on the opposite side of Li Zhen and stare at her. Changsun Chengliang's tragic situation made him feel sad.
"This is not fair, not fair!" the eldest grandson Chengliang suddenly burst into laughter and roared: "Father, I have made a decision in advance, how can I just let it go like this? Where is the dignity of my eldest grandson's family? Except for the child, Miss Yan'er. I won’t marry anyone else!”
Although Changsun Wuji was saddened by the bullying of his children and did not want to sit back and watch the family lose face, but when he thought about competing with the Holy Emperor for his wife, or competing with the evil wolf Li Zhen for his daughter-in-law, Changsun Wuji felt a little weak. Be careful, forming a deep hatred with Li Zhen is no joke. Unless you can defeat Li Zhen in a fight, you have to beware of Li Zhen's revenge at any time. It's not a matter of things on the surface. After all, the Holy Lord is Changsun Wuji is still confident. What he is afraid of is Li Zhen's evil hand, and no one else. Now that Li Zhen is powerful and powerful, although Changsun Wuji is not clear about the secret forces, he also knows that it is not simple. For the safety of the family, he will How could Changsun Wuji easily make a powerful enemy like Li Zhen just for the sake of his son's happiness? Therefore, when he saw Changsun Chengliang losing his composure, he immediately slapped Changsun Chengliang in the face and shouted: "Asshole! This is Are the words something you can say?”
"Dad, the child is dissatisfied, I feel so distressed! I beg my father to make the decision for the child." Seeing his father losing his temper, Changsun Chengliang immediately fell to his knees and kowtowed to the ground, his forehead bleeding. Jedi sobbed.
"You..." Changsun Wuji was so angry that he was trembling all over. He pointed at his eldest son Chengliang and said: "You are a traitor, do you really want my eldest grandson's family to be buried with you? Is His Highness the King of Yue so easy to mess with? Damn you, this matter. Just let it go and don't mention it again in the future, otherwise you won't blame your father for being ruthless."
Love is the most difficult thing to understand in the world. Poor Changsun Chengliang is usually a well-behaved person. At this time, he was burned by the love in his heart and had already forgotten everything. Seeing that his father refused to show up, he suddenly felt sad. As gray as ashes, his tearful eyes immediately turned red with blood. He kowtowed to Changsun Wuji several times and without saying a word, he jumped up and rushed down the stairs.
"Stop! Damn, come back!" Changsun Wuji naturally understood what his son wanted to do, and he roared loudly. Unfortunately, only their father and son were upstairs. Changsun Chengliang ran very fast, so he Even if he wanted his men to stop him, it was too late. Seeing that he could no longer stop his son from getting into trouble, Changsun Wuji's face suddenly turned pale. He stood silently on the attic for a while, stamped his feet, and sighed up to the sky. He sounded as if he had aged a few years. He shook his head and walked down from the attic, heading straight for the "Haoran Zhengqi Pavilion"... dd
