Han Shizu

Chapter 1593 Chill or not?
After Emperor Liu left, the hall of Duke Yu's mansion fell into a quiet, deadly silence, and the solemn winter wind seemed to add a bit of desolation.

They didn't send them out of the house in person, Wei Renpu sat on the chair, his aging body almost huddled and leaned against the back of the chair, his energy seemed to be taken away a little, his old eyes seemed to have returned to the dimness they should have at a normal age with cloudiness.

Wei Xianxin was obviously not stupid. Compared with his father's calmness, he seemed a little out of his mind. He took a leather jacket and stepped forward, gently covering Wei Renpu's body. After hesitating to speak, he asked worriedly: "Father , Your Majesty, what does this mean?"

"Have you noticed it too?" Wei Renpu came back to his senses and asked instead of answering.

Wei Xianxin nodded, hesitated for a while, and finally revealed his depression, hidden worries and puzzlement, and said, "Your Majesty, His Majesty, seems to be suspicious of you?"

In this regard, Wei Renpu smiled bitterly, did not answer the words, nor did he refute his son's words, the corners of his mouth were slightly opened, and he just let out a silent sigh.

Seeing this, Wei Xianxin became a little anxious, and even felt slightly indignant: "Why is this? You are His Majesty's servant of the dragon. For many years, you have worked hard, fulfilled your duties, and dedicated yourself to the country. It can be said that you have devoted yourself to death.

Furthermore, it has been almost ten years, and you have been recuperating in the mansion all along, and you have long since stopped interfering in political affairs. You have kept yourself so peaceful, why is Your Majesty suspicious? "

"National Treasure, with your heart, you shouldn't have said such indignant words!" Wei Renpu's tone and expression became extra serious as he warned, probably feeling that Wei Xianxin's mood was a bit wrong.

Wei Renpu's words, like a splash of cold water, poured out Wei Xianxin's resentment and unyielding, he was stupefied when he saw his old father, a feeling of unbearable grief came to his heart, from which he shook his head and said: "My son just doesn't understand, and there are some I can't bear it, you have worked hard for the king's affairs for many years, and the root cause of your illness is the accumulation of years of hard work.

Your Majesty is really scary. You have been seriously ill. You have kept a low profile. You have not been in court for many years. There are so many ministers and ministers in the court.

When my son was young, the entire court was singing praises that you are His Majesty's most loyal and promising minister, and His Majesty has always relied on you as his heart, and told people many times that you are his good teacher and helpful friend. Zhihan's suspicion?
Shu'er dared to say bluntly, did His Majesty come to visit the mansion this time, to see a sick person, or to remind him to die? "

Hearing what he said, Wei Renpu's complexion suddenly changed, his pale old face was flushed with a blush, and he coughed violently due to his excitement: "You are bold! Kneel down!"

But seeing Wei Renpu's reaction, Wei Xianxin was also frightened, and nervously stepped forward to take care of him, but was forced to kneel down by Wei Renpu's stern eyes, but still looked at his father with concern and concern.

Wei Renpu took out a handkerchief and wiped his mouth with trembling hands, then stared at Wei Xianxin, and said urgently: "National treasure! I always thought that you have a peaceful and honest personality, but I never expected that there is such a strong heart hidden in your heart."

As he spoke, he subconsciously looked around, and after making sure no one disturbed their father and son's conversation, he said earnestly, "How could you say that kind of thing just now, such rebellious and blasphemous words, how dare you say them out?" , I shouldn’t even think about it!”

Hearing what Wei Renpu said, Wei Xianxin also calmed down, knowing that he had said something that he shouldn't have said, he was inevitably a little scared, and looked around for a while, before he kowtowed and said sincerely: "Father taught you the right thing, but I was wrong!"

Seeing that he understood, Wei Renpu slowed down and let Wei Xianxin get up with a sigh.

Seeing his father calming down his anger, Wei Xianxin regained his usual composure, and asked softly: "Father, I just don't understand why it has come to such a point, your majesty is so conceited, can you be calm and not worry about it? "

This time, Wei Renpu did not directly refute Wei Xianxin, but said softly: "National treasure, in all fairness, what do you think Your Majesty treats the Wei family, your father, and your brothers? Have you ever treated him harshly?"

Wei Xianxin was slightly stunned when he heard the words, thought for a while, and cupped his hands weakly: "Father is ranked as the 24th minister, and he was bestowed by the Duke of the country, and the mother was ordered by the third rank, and the two elder brothers are also holding important positions outside. Just now, they are still concerned about the future of the son , If you want to confer a position or an official, this kind of favor is as high as the mountains and as deep as the waters!"

"It's just!" After summarizing, Wei Xianxin followed up and said, "The kindness is so profound, and the groundless suspicion is even more creepy!"

Wei Renpu laughed, very lightly, looked at his son and said, "I'm not even excited as a father, so why are you so excited!"

Without waiting for Wei Xianxin to answer, Wei Renpu said slowly: "I have followed Your Majesty for nearly 15 years, and in the first [-] years, I have been in the same boat through thick and thin, and we have shared weal and woe. During this journey, I still have some understanding and experience of Your Majesty.

Your Majesty is the wise master who is born in the world, and it took hundreds of years to have such a person, who helped the poor and the needy, and ruled the world.Your Majesty Xiong guessed that this is something you can see from the early years, and it is this suspicion that makes your Majesty lead the world from collapse to stability.

If the emperor loses his vigilance and vigilance, he will not be far from peril. This suspicious character is also the foundation of His Majesty. "

"This kind of suspicion is applied to my father. I really, really feel it." Wei Xianxin seemed to be at a loss for how to describe it, but his reaction was aggrieved.

Wei Xianxin had calmed down, but he was still a little upset. Seeing this, Wei Renpu said, "Even if His Majesty is the one to speculate, how can there be unreasonable suspicions, inexplicable suspicions? As you said just now, as a father, it is true that you are right to Your Majesty. Loyalty, no shame in my heart!"

"Because of this, I feel that Your Majesty is going too far?" Wei Xianxin said cautiously.

"In these years, I have been reflecting and thinking, and I finally got something!" Wei Renpu said with a wry smile: "I am probably also tired of fame!"

"When your majesty is magnanimous, it is enough to accommodate the world, but for the unspeakable and unbearable, there will be no room for even a single stitch!" Wei Renpu sighed: "There is no shortage of clean streams in the court. Those ministers, even if they talk empty talk, or even bluntly remonstrate, His Majesty can still laugh at it.

Those Qingliu scholars, even if they are well-known and spread far and wide, are irrelevant to His Majesty, and even need such people to show His Majesty's mind and tolerance.

However, His Majesty will never tolerate a prime minister who is full of reputation and praised internally and externally.In the past, people often said that I, the prime minister, is a famous prime minister through the ages, and everyone expects it, even His Majesty often praises it.

At that time, I realized that such public opinion is not a good thing for the ministers, and it is too dangerous.As everyone expected, is this the praise a minister deserves? "

Hearing Wei Renpu's eloquent talk, Wei Xianxin also had some awareness, but the worry on his face became more serious, and he sighed: "Father has already sensed the danger, and hastily retreated bravely. For many years, he has been devoted to His Majesty and loyal to the court. How has it ever changed, doesn't His Majesty know?"

Wei Renpu sighed: "What kind of person is Your Majesty, and how many things in the world can be hidden from those wise eyes, many people and many things, he knows very well.

However, what is needed to be an emperor is inscrutable, how can ordinary people see through it.It is naturally difficult for you to guess extraordinary people with the heart of ordinary people. "

Even though Wei Renpu explained it this way, Wei Xianxin still had doubts and doubts, but seeing the old father who was getting older and weaker, he said softly: "It's just that my father is so miserable, and my son is by the side, I can't bear it!"

Wei Renpu shook his head, suddenly thought of something, and said to Wei Xian seriously: "Your Majesty's last question is very meaningful! He even knows the posthumous note I have already prepared. What does that mean?"

Wei Xianxin lowered his voice, and said, "Those hawks and dogs of the Imperial City Division, I'm afraid they have already been buried deep in the mansion!"

"It's good that you understand!" Wei Renpu confessed: "Because of this, you must be more cautious in your words and deeds in the future, even in the house, don't make bad words, lest disaster come out of your mouth!"

Wei Xianxin nodded, and said solemnly: "I understand, this time, I lost my composure!"

For his third son, Wei Renpu was still very satisfied, and said with relief: "The affairs of my life and death are almost arranged. Juelu is heir to the family, and the court has its own custom, but you have to be the guardian of my Wei family." ah!"

Seeing what Wei Renpu said, Wei Xianxin felt a little embarrassed, bowed his head and said, "With the elder brother and the second elder brother here, I should only support each other with the two elder brothers."

Wei Renpu smiled, and sighed again: "You are just not the right age, otherwise, that's all, don't mention it, you go to the study and get my posthumous note."
