Shu Blossoms

Chapter 261 You will have to pull a few backs when you die

There was a moment of silence in front of the palace gate, it wasn't that these people were questioned by Zheng Wei, nor was they touched, most of them felt that only women and villains were difficult to raise, and disdain to argue with her.

Zheng Wei couldn't help sneering, these people standing in the court hall and claiming to be courtiers are so ridiculous, they look down on you on the one hand, and on the other hand they sold you out without hesitation, without feeling any guilt at all.

"Today, the princess gave you the opportunity to discuss the marriage of the princess. If you have nothing to say, then don't say anything about this matter in the future, otherwise you must have heard that the princess has a bad temper. Well, the national teacher is much older than you!"

Zheng Wei's words seemed to be a blatant threat.

Finally someone couldn't get used to her arrogant appearance, and couldn't help scolding her, "Women stay inside, take care of their husbands and children, and men go outside. They either run around for the livelihood of the family, or stand in the court and share the worries of the country. It's a rule since ancient times!"

"Since ancient times, there has been a father who sells daughters to seek glory. Is this lord selling daughters to survive today to share the worries of the society? The ones who sell are still girls from the Zheng family, so don't feel bad about it, right?" Zheng Wei didn't know this person either. She is an adult, but seeing that she is about the same age as her grandfather, the words she said made people feel harsh, and she didn't feel burdened at all when she scolded.

Apparently, this old man was not broad-minded enough, Zheng Wei was so angry that he didn't let out his breath and almost fainted.

At this time, standing at the front and listening quietly to Zheng Wei, the old man who was against all the courtiers slowly took two steps towards Zheng Wei, stopped when he was about ten feet away from her, and bowed slightly to Zheng Wei.

Zheng Wei looked him around, his hair was grizzled, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to be irreversible, he should be an octogenarian.

"Old man He Qing." This person gave his name indifferently, Zheng Wei got up solemnly after hearing this, and performed the student salute.

This Mr. He Qing, unlike most of the other people sitting here, is a talker, he is one of the few great masters of Confucianism in the world, and his grandfather respected him very much.

When she was a child, her grandfather told herself the "Analects" and "Spring and Autumn" annotated by He Qing, and she was highly praised in words.

Moreover, He Qing not only has high attainments in Confucian classics, but also has a truly noble character. He has a son who has been stubborn since he was a child.

Now his son has turned back as a prodigal son and has made some achievements in academics, but he is still not allowed to enter the house.

Unexpectedly, such a person would be involved in this kind of thing, which made Zheng Wei feel very uncomfortable.

"My official position is not high, but I am a doctor of the Imperial College under your grandfather, and I am not here today to force the princess to get married, nor do I feel that women are inferior when I speak at this time." He Qing said slowly.

"Why is that?" Zheng Wei was really puzzled.

Guozijian is located in Jilong Mountain, independent of Jiankang City, and has never participated in political affairs. Why did He Qing have to wade into this muddy water.

"Four years ago, after the war between the two countries, the old man was worried about his hometown in Qingzhou. He asked for leave and went to Qingzhou. The people were displaced and starved to death along the way. Nearly [-]% of these refugees were old and weak. Many young and middle-aged people joined the army and never returned. Here comes. The old man's hometown was trampled and robbed by the Great Wei cavalry, the grain in the fields was almost robbed, and the women and children in the village were bullied and robbed by the thieves. The old man was heartbroken. Four years have passed, and two months ago, the family wrote a letter saying that life is just now Now that they have settled down, they have a harvest in the field this year, and they can eat a bowl of the grain they grew themselves. Although they are still not full, they will not starve to death, and will no longer be threatened by the big Wei cavalry every day, and leave their homes. They are actually the easiest to satisfy, I really can't bear to let them lose their home again!"

In the end, the octogenarian was sobbing.

He Qing tried tears, and quickly regained his composure. Looking at Zheng Wei's righteous speech, he said: "If this old man has a daughter, if I can exchange the lives of this old man's family for the peace of the world, I would like to make my family die calmly! This old man wants Ask the princess to hang the curtain on the people of the Zhou Dynasty.

Those scenes seen four years ago, once again churned in her heart, Zheng Wei couldn't help the redness of her eyes, she didn't doubt the sincerity of this old man.

But what makes her most uncomfortable is this sincerity, so sincere, and so stupid!
Zheng Wei admires Mr. He for his righteousness for the public and the people! Four years ago, when the Northern Expedition started, I was in Qingzhou. When I hurried back, I was hijacked by the current emperor of Wei, and then I was exiled among the people. taste." Zheng Wei bowed, and looked into He Qing's eyes calmly, "So if I can exchange the peace of Da Zhou and Da Wei for decades, I am willing to have no complaints!"

He Qing's eyes were filled with relief, but Zheng Wei's voice changed again.

"It's just that I have a question that I need to be cleared up by Mr. He. Today, Dawei wants the princess, and Dazhou will give it to the princess. If he wants the princess, he will give it to the princess. What if Emperor Wei's favor is only a few months? What if he no longer loves you?" What about the women of the Great Zhou? What else can you give? The country? The people? Or the land of the Great Zhou?"

Zheng Wei's questioning made He Qing bewildered, he murmured: "Impossible"

"Why is it impossible? The ten-year agreement between Dawei and Dazhou was only three years old. He said that it can be destroyed if it is destroyed. You still believe that only one girl can extinguish the Xianbei people's ambition to drink horses and the Yangtze River! Just let it go. It can only be humiliation, and submission will only obliterate the people's belonging and trust in Da Zhou."

Zheng Wei was impassioned, her voice was a little hoarse, and after taking a breath, she turned back to the unreasonable princess, "If it's for Da Zhou and the people, I can get married. But I don't believe in Da Wei! If Da Wei Wouldn't I lose my life if I broke my promise and fought again? But I don't want to."

Zheng Wei sharp-eyed saw a certain person's disdain, and suddenly raised his voice, "Well, if you really think Princess Danyang's marriage is useful, then you should pay a little, after all, it's all for Da Zhou."

Everyone looked up at her curiously, Zheng Wei looked back at Gao Han who had come late, and said with a smile: "Gao Weng, please bring me a pen, ink, paper and inkstone!"

Gao Han turned his head and gave an order, and a little servant rushed over in no time.

"What is the chief of the county writing? I will study the ink for you!" Gao Han laughed at the side.

Zheng Wei picked up the Langhao brush, lightly dipped it in the ink, and swiped the big brush.

After blowing it dry gently, she raised her head and grinned at the ministers, and everyone's backs shivered inexplicably.

"I believe that the adults here today are as old as they are, and they are dedicated to the public. You might as well imitate Mr. He and pledge here, and I agree to marry Da Wei."

"What is this?" Someone asked suspiciously.

"It's very simple, that is, if the emperor of Wei breaks the contract again one day and harms the princess, all the adults here are willing to accompany the princess to die with his family and children!"

Gao Han looked at the content written on it, and was shocked, but his face remained unchanged, and he was very enthusiastic to explain the confusion for the courtiers.

"Nonsense!" "How can this work?"

Everyone was filled with righteous indignation, but Zheng Wei didn't back down at all, and snorted coldly: "I dare to marry Da Wei, and Mr. He is willing to pay for the life of the family, why can't you? Could it be that you are not for the public, but are just greedy for life and afraid of death, Let me die for you?"

"It's nonsense!" Everyone vehemently denied it, and the face of the self-proclaimed upright Qi turned blue.

"Then sign and make a pledge!" Zheng Weigao shouted, "Gao Weng, remember these people well, if anyone refuses to sign, I will tell His Majesty to let their children be dowry!"
