Wei Ni

Chapter 14

Indeed, Xia Houhui didn't think he was wrong at all.

When he was having a banquet in the manor that day, when he saw that Wang Su was indifferent to the emperor and Cao Zhao and others taking pleasure in the scorpion, he suddenly remembered that the emperor Cao Rui, who has a tool to tolerate others, has not always been admonishing like a liar. .

For example, in the original historical track, Yang Fu, who had the festival of public assistant, was disheartened because Cao Rui repeatedly refused to listen to his advice, so he repeatedly begged to resign and return to his hometown.

In other words, it is time to commit crimes against Tianyan!

If you don't use correct words to persuade him today when he is still inspiring to be a sage monarch, and then persuade him in the future because Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu, has fallen into Wuzhangyuan, then he will be playing the piano with a cow.

It also means that Xia Houhui's expectations will come to nothing—Cao Rui will be like the historical track, laying a hidden danger for Cao Wei Sheji.

This is the reason why he used "A Fang Gong Fu" to accuse Sang and scold Huai that day.

As for comparing Emperor Cao Rui with Qin II, this is really too much~
It's not that he doesn't know how to live or die, but it's because of the consideration of the relationship between the monarch and his ministers in the future.

As the saying goes, insight into the world is knowledge, and understanding of human feelings is the article.

In the process of getting along with each other, people are always used to compromise and reconcile with each other.

Just like Xia Houhui felt that a room in his family was too dark and planned to open a window, his eldest brother Xia Houheng might not agree; That's fine, no need to bother.

The first time he persuaded the emperor Cao Rui, he used Qin II as an example, out of this consideration.

As long as the words of persuasion in the future are not as strong as this time, Emperor Cao Rui will feel that he has tried his best to restrain himself, and will be more tolerant accordingly.

Of course, this approach is highly likely to backfire.

For example, the emperor Cao Rui directly dismissed Xia Houhui when he became angry from embarrassment, so that he no longer had the opportunity to persuade him.

But Xia Houhui didn't care about it.

If you can't change Cao Rui, then the next best thing is to go to bed, and plan to change Cao Shuang in the future!

Renewing Cao Wei's life is not the only way to choose.

With such thoughts in mind, Xia Houhui has not yet confessed to the emperor for his inappropriate words, but let's wait and see what happens, and see how Cao Rui's tolerance is.

However, when Xia Houheng met Wang Su, he had no choice but to come to confess his crime.

However, Xia Houheng, who has been holding idle positions in the court, entrusted Wang Su to look after Xiahou Hui who had just entered the official career, and then began to seek a wife for the latter.

Until listening to Chaori, he met Wang Su outside the palace gate. Before he came forward to say hello, Wang Su pulled him to a corner, confessed that he had failed the previous entrustment, and thanked Xia Houhui, Xie Ensoma, and others. Shi Fu told the emperor about Sang and Huai.

After hearing this, Xia Houheng was stunned on the spot.

Even when Wang Su said his goodbyes and left after saying what had happened, he didn't react and thanked him according to the etiquette.

Gein, when Xia Houhui brought the good horse from the Western Regions back to his home a few days ago, he claimed that it was a gift from the emperor, which made Xia Houheng think that his sixth brother was deeply loved and loved by the emperor, and that he would be able to restore the glory of his father's generation in the future. !
Who would have expected it to be for such a reason?

And still compare the emperor to Qin Ershi Hu Hai in public?

After losing his mind, Xia Houheng blushed with anger, suppressed his anger, and rushed home in a hurry when the court was over.

As soon as he entered the house, he happened to bump into Xia Houhui who was practicing archery in the martial arts field today, and without a word, he directly picked up a few arrows from the field and slammed them across the face.

And while smoking and swearing.

"Straight!"

"An dare ask for the emperor's horse!"

"How can you compare His Majesty to Qin II!"

"It's in vain that you are familiar with all kinds of schools of thought, but you don't think about the decline of your family and offend the emperor. This is what a wise man does!"

At first, Xia Houhui wanted to hide for unknown reasons.

But after hearing the elder brother's scolding, he simply stood still and let the arrow go down.

Anyway, he has thick skin and thick flesh, and Xia Houheng didn't slap his face, so he acted as "a small stick to receive, a big stick to go".

Perhaps, it was because of his equanimity that Xia Houheng threw down the arrow after taking more than a dozen strokes, kicked him to the ground angrily, and roared loudly, "Still sticking to the ground!" Worse! Hurry up and change the court clothes, and follow me into the palace to plead guilty to the emperor!"

"I dont go."

Xia Houhui, who was just about to get up, just sat cross-legged on the ground with his neck stuck, "Brother, I am a close minister, and it is my duty to persuade the emperor, and the emperor has not committed any crime."

But before he finished speaking, he quickly stopped talking and raised his arms to protect his face.

It was Xia Houheng who was extremely angry when he heard that he dared to talk loudly, so he directly picked up the bow he had practiced just now and smashed it fiercely.

"How dare you make excuses!"

"It's just a play on the scorpion, how can you compare the emperor to Hu Hai!"

"It's my duty to persuade you, but it's not to allow you to be presumptuous!"

"You are not yet a weak crown, and you were given the title of loose cavalry by His Majesty's grace. You are not grateful, but ridiculed in public as a gift!"

Xia Houheng, who stepped over, started a new round of foaming.

If Emperor Cao Rui could see this scene, he would feel that today's meal is especially delicious.

Xia Houhui, who was being scolded, just bowed his head blindly, without any intention of getting up and going to change the court clothes - being scolded by his elder brother, he should accept it humbly; but it is impossible for him to enter the palace to plead guilty.

Huh?
Why is there no sound?

After a while, Xia Houhui suddenly found that his ears were quiet, and raised his head in doubt.

But he found that Xia Houheng somehow remembered something, and at this moment he was closing his eyes and raising his head to the sky, his face full of sadness.

"Brother, why are you doing this?"

Quickly got up from the ground, Xia Houhui asked aloud.

"Ugh"

Hearing this, Xia Houheng, who opened his eyes, first let out a long sigh, then stared at Xia Houhui's eyes and said quietly, "First I didn't discipline you well, which caused you to be reckless and offend Tianyan; now I want you to know your mistakes and correct them." I can’t do it either. I’m incompetent, I’m ashamed of Father’s spirit in heaven~~~”

Uh.
Suddenly, Xia Houhui was dumbfounded.

Although Xia Houheng, who is like a man, has not made achievements in politics and martial arts, he is really responsible for his elder brother like a father.

Originating from Xia Houyuan's long-term guarding relationship, as the eldest son of the family, he started to run the family before the crown ceremony!

He not only manages the family property in an orderly manner, but also handles the world well. The most important thing is that he almost treats his younger siblings as his own children, worrying about food, clothing, housing, transportation, reading and learning.Although it is unavoidable to chatter on weekdays, this love has been going on for more than ten years, and I have never felt impatient.

To put it bluntly, in the eyes of the young and lonely Xiahouhui, Xiahouhe, Xiahouheng is more like a father than Xiahouyuan.

Therefore, when Xia Houheng blamed himself for the crime and felt sorry for his late father, Xia Houhui couldn't help opening his mouth, and finally sighed in his heart, resigned.

"Brother, according to your words, I will go to change the court clothes and knock on the que to apologize to the emperor."

And not just talk.

As soon as the words fell, he turned around and strode towards his house.

However, what he didn't know was that when his figure left the martial arts arena, Xia Houheng, who was originally full of sadness and self-blame, immediately had a sunny face, and it was only after a moment of self-satisfaction that he went to tidy up. Grooming.

He has been in charge of the family for so many years, but he hasn't been wasting his time all the time!
He already knew the dispositions of everyone in the family very well, and now he wants to handle Xia Houhui, who is soft and not hard, it is not too easy
When they were young, the two brothers went out to visit the palace and knock on the palace.

It was almost the end of Shenshi when the guards on duty were passed on and recruited by the emperor.

Therefore, the two were the emperors they met in the Chonghua Houdian.

That is to say, if he knocked on the que and asked to see him later, the emperor Cao Rui might not have been summoned because he had returned to his bedroom.

At this time, the Son of Heaven had no accompanying ministers beside him, only a dozen or so attendants accompanied him, and the two brothers did not need to be too restrained when they faced the Emperor.

But Xia Houheng is not.

When he saw the emperor Cao Rui from a distance, he took small steps forward, bowed his head and said, "Chen Heng's teaching brother has no way to offend Tianyan, and it is a death penalty! A death penalty!"

Made a full gesture of pleading guilty.

It also made Xia Houhui have to learn from others, and followed closely behind and bowed to the ground.

For Xia Houheng, the emperor Cao Rui is very polite.

Not only because of Xia Houheng's wife Haiyang Aihou's daughter (Cao Cao's daughter-in-law), but also because he is gentle, law-abiding, and a courtier without any blemishes.

"The Marquis of An Ning doesn't need to blame himself, this matter has nothing to do with you. This place is not a court hall, don't be cramped, just get up."

In this regard, Emperor Cao Rui smiled and stretched out his hand to help Xia Houheng to get up.

But he was not polite to Xia Houhui.

After Xia Houheng got up and stood sideways, the emperor withdrew his smile and stared at Xia Houhui who was prostrate on the ground with a gloomy expression.

Because Xia Houhui just bowed his head blindly and didn't make a sound for a long time.
Is this here to plead guilty?
Obviously being forced to be brought by Xia Houheng out of desperation, but he still feels dissatisfied!
After a moment of silence, Xia Houheng standing next to him lost his composure and let out a light cough, reminding Xia Houhui to make an apology.After no results, he couldn't help feeling anxious, so he walked over lightly, intending to show his filial piety to his "brother" in front of the emperor.

After all, if he beat and scolded, it would be difficult for the emperor to get angry.

But before he could put it into action, the emperor raised his hand to stop him, and asked Xiahou Huifa in a deep voice, "Xiahou Zhiquan knocked on the que to ask for an audience, why?"

"Going back to Your Majesty, I'm pleading guilty."

Hearing this, Xia Houhui slightly raised his head and responded with a loud voice.

Then you should please!

The emperor Cao Rui was angry for a while, and just about to speak out, he laughed angrily at Xia Houhui's next words.

Because Xiahou Hui said so: "However, Hui secretly thinks that he is innocent and can be punished."

Not guilty? !
Comparing me to Qin II, I still say that I am not guilty! ?
When the emperor Cao Ruifu heard this, his eyes widened with anger.

Originally, when he learned that Xia Houheng and the two had come to knock on the palace to ask for an audience, he knew that the two were here to plead guilty, and he planned to take advantage of the situation to expose the matter.

Who would have expected that instead of acknowledging Xia Houhui's gratitude, Xia Houhui would say that he was innocent?

Shuzi!

I really think that after Qiao Pei's meritorious service, I will not be able to kill him!
When the furious emperor Cao Rui was about to explode, he called out soldiers to take Xia Houhui down, but Xia Houhui preempted him.

I saw him sitting upright on his knees, with a passionate expression, and said in a loud voice.

"Your Majesty, Hui has heard the saying that 'the wise master is above, and all the subordinates will say goodbye'; I have also heard that as long as the sage master, the ministers must have the enthusiasm to express their loyalty and disrespect. Hui Nian is only a weak crown, no With the talents of the next generation, thanks to His Majesty's long grace, and thanks to the merits of his father's generation, he was able to become an official and serve as a cavalry servant. He was always apprehensive and grateful, and he did not hesitate to sacrifice himself to serve the country! He is good at making judgments, follows advice like a stream, and promulgates many edicts, and the people are all happy. He is the master of sages! In this way, Huizi should not be afraid of the sky, express his loyalty by touching power, and do his duty by bluntly admonishing, in order to repay His Majesty For your kindness, Your Majesty's sage's reputation! Therefore, Hui thinks that there is no guilt to be excused."
