Chapter 894 Di Renjie and Wei Zheng
Facts have proved that the entertainment of stone gambling is not only popular in later generations, it is even more popular in the Tang Dynasty when everyone likes to gamble.

The first stone gambling competition in the Tang Dynasty was jointly organized by Bai Fan and Yue Wang Feng An, both of them took this opportunity to make a lot of money.The one who spends the most money in the casino is not the richest man Bai Fan, but Li Yuan, the first richest emperor in the Tang Dynasty.

This day's stone betting is even more generous, picking all the big stones, but the old man has never been lucky. He couldn't win the martial arts tournament back then. This time, he still loses in all likelihood, so Li Yuan In a fit of rage, he bought all the stones in the venue and opened them up one by one.

This action made everyone sweat profusely, Bai Fan and others hurriedly persuaded him, but finally he had to let the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan be the referee before he gave up.

Since then, the Datang Stone Gambling Conference has become a frequent entertainment activity in the wealthy circle, and there is even a perennial stone gambling venue in Chang'an Entertainment City.

A few days later, at Zheng Guogong Wei Zheng's mansion in Chang'an City, a person came to visit today, holding a letter from Bai Fan, and it was the young Di Renjie.

Wei Zheng read the letter carefully, pondered for a moment, and said to Di Renjie, "Do you know what your master asked you to come to me for?"

Di Renjie said respectfully, "Student doesn't know, my teacher told me before leaving that I only brought my eyes and ears with me, not my mouth."

Wei Zheng laughed loudly, "Master, you are so cunning, you are so cunning even as an apprentice, let you come to me to practice for a year, I am half of your master, you don't need to be so secretive."

"Students pay a visit to Master Wei, and their teachers have told them that you are an admonisher of the Tang Dynasty, a generation of celebrities, let me follow you to watch more, listen more and talk less, so the students dare not make mistakes." Di Renjie gave Wei Zheng a half-teacher The ceremony, opened the mouth again.

Wei Zheng laughed, and said in a self-deprecating manner, "Admonisher? Your master raised me up quite a bit. In contrast, he really got the essence of admonishment. Has your master ever taught you the way of admonishment?" ?”

Di Renjie shook his head and said, "No, my teacher said that I am good at governance and prison laws, and did not teach me how to be an admonisher."

"That's right. Zhongnan Academy is full of talents. There are no fewer than five people like you who are talented in the country. And you, Di Renjie, are the youngest and will definitely achieve the greatest achievements in the future. Wouldn't it be a loss of talent to just be an admonisher?" Already?" Wei Zheng said to himself.

"Why, what is this? What are your achievements? How does it have anything to do with your age?" Di Renjie asked puzzled.

Wei Zheng explained: "It's age, Your Majesty is in the prime of life today, but 30 years later, how old are your senior brothers? How old will you be in 30 years? So you, Di Renjie, are not from this generation. It is very important for you to realize that you are the mainstay of the future, but the mainstay of the next dynasty."

Di Renjie bowed and said, "The students have been taught."

"Your master is good at eloquence and is the best admonisher, but he doesn't teach you how to admonish others, so he didn't ask you to come to me to learn how to be an admonisher, but to let you come to me to learn how to protect yourself .”

"The student is confused, please tell Master Wei."

"Since ancient times, there has been a saying that Wen dies to remonstrate with Wu to fight to the death. Do you know the essentials of remonstrating with death?" Wei Zheng asked.

Di Renjie replied, "Using death to force the monarch to be vigilant."

"It's wrong, it's a big mistake. It's not the goal to remonstrate with death, but remonstrance is the goal. When we are in power in a country and are called the prime minister, how dare we always say death? An excellent admonisher , the most important thing is to learn how to protect yourself, only by saving your life can you do more long-term things, if you give away your life with one remonstrance, how can you talk about serving the country and the people in the future?"

Di Renjie thought it was wrong, Mr. Wei is known for being upright and not evil, every time you go to admonish the monarch, don't you always admonish with death?

Wei Zheng couldn't understand what Di Renjie was thinking, and explained with a big smile, "Silly boy, it means that I am sure to survive every time, your master always laughed at me and called Wei Wei a black-bellied person. To put it bluntly, he made me You came to me to follow and learn how to be black-bellied and save your life."

Di Renjie stood on the spot blankly, never expecting that in his impression, the most upright person in Datang could say such witty words, Wei Zheng's image instantly changed drastically in his mind.

"Tomorrow you will go with me to apply for the status and entry. First, you will be a clerical assistant with me. Remember, you can have the opportunity to enter and leave the military plane so early. You must seize the opportunity and learn more." Wei Zheng urged .

The next day, Wei Zheng took Di Renjie to the Datang Political Affairs Hall. At this time, Datang was not a complete system of three provinces and six ministries, but only a prototype of three provinces and six ministries. The control still maintained many old job titles in the Han Dynasty, but there were also some Many new changes.

The place where ministers work is not called Liubu, but Zhengshitang, which is actually a palace, next to the imperial palace, and ministers can go back to their own sites directly to work as directors.

Seeing that Wei Zheng brought a child in together, everyone was surprised. Could it be that Old Wei thought about it and started taking apprentices?So they all gathered around.

Wei Zheng explained: "Don't misunderstand, this is Jian Zhi's young disciple Di Renjie, who is about to graduate, and Jian Zhi asked him to come out to practice for a while. I have already reported to His Majesty, and asked him to be a clerical assistant with me. .”

Du Ruhui knew Di Renjie, and he was very clear about this kid's talent. He was a young talent with a limitless future. He thought he would be cultivated by Fang Xuanling's side, but unexpectedly, he was placed in the Side by the tough old Wei.

Changsun Wuji said: "It turns out that you are Di Renjie, a genius and expert in solving crimes who is well-known in the academy. I have heard the two boys from my family come back and talk about you, saying that you are a god at a young age, and even your master Bai Fan is as good as you!" If it’s too late, what are you going to learn from Old Wei? Do you want to learn from his stubborn temper? Why don’t you follow the old man and develop the law in Xing Prison in the future.”

Wei Zheng introduced: "This is the uncle's eldest grandson Wuji.

I said old fox, what do you mean?Are you saying that my old Wei is inferior to you?Why can't I bring this child? "

In order to smooth things over for Di Renjie, Wei Zheng also stood up and played a trick.

As soon as Di Renjie heard that he was Changsun Wuji, he already had a certain position in his heart for this person. This person is the number one old fox in the court, and he is still unknown to the enemy. Although he and his sons Changsun Chong and Changsun Huan are classmates, But the gossip said that he had a gap with the master.

"Students also often read Uncle Changsun's Discussions on Laws of the Tang Dynasty. Every time they read it, they have different ideas. After I learn to be a middle-class admonisher with Master Wei, I will come to ask Uncle Changsun's knowledge of law, punishment and prison. After all, students have limited talents. , unable to multitask.”

"Okay, okay, the old man is waiting for the day when you can complete your studies. If you can learn from old Wei Sancheng, my Tang Dynasty will have another honest and selfless minister." Changsun Wuji laughed.
