Chapter 38
After Dudu Yang thought of this inner meaning, he felt a little more happy.But after all, he was a man who had been a man in the imperial court for so many years. After all, his face did not reveal his innermost feelings. He just stretched out his hand to stroke his beard, making him feel a little nostalgic. It seemed that Wei Huaian's words brought back his memories.

"Your Majesty reminded me. It seems that I haven't had a chat with Wei Xiangchang for a long time." As he spoke, he showed a bit of emotion, and sighed: "I think back in the past, when I was in the same window as Wei, I knew everything. Chatting, caring about the family, the country, and the world, we used to make an appointment to meet again when we had time. I never thought about it, time flies, and now I am already over fifty years old, and the promise back then has never had a chance to be fulfilled."

Wei Huai'an listened to Dudu Yang lamenting to her the deep friendship between him and Daddy Cheap, and once again refreshed his impression of these ministers, and felt that their acting skills were so good that even she, a dramatist, was ashamed of herself.

It's absolutely amazing. It's absolutely amazing.

If it weren't for the fact that my father wanted to see them, I would have just made it up.

If it weren't for the fact that he also knew how Wei Wu often talked about Governor Yang and Shangshu Liu at home, he was arrogant.

Wei Huai'an was going to be deceived by Dudu Yang's sincere tone, and really thought that they were colleagues with a deep friendship.

But seeing the other party acting so sincerely, Wei Huaian was certainly not to be outdone.She also sighed softly, as if she was moved by the friendship of the older generation, and sighed: "The friendship between Mr. Yang and my father is really admirable. No wonder my father always said that there is something at home. Things can only be discussed with Master Yang."

Dudu Yang's ears are still very sensitive.After hearing Wei Huai'an's words, he keenly grasped the words "have something to talk to", and felt quite satisfied in his heart, and became more sure of the thought in his heart.It seemed that he really did what he expected, and the Wei family wanted to help them.

Of course, Liu Shangshu on the side also understood what Wei Huai'an was implying, and smiled at Dudu Yang.

Following Wei Huai'an's words, Yang Dudu seemed to be very curious and asked: "Madam, I would like to ask, do you know what Minister Wei wants to tell me?"

Wei Huai'an heard the words, but did not tell him directly.

Wei Huaian winked at Zhiluo beside him.Zhiluo nodded lightly, and then said to the other maids behind Wei Huai'an: "Your Majesty is tired from walking, the two of you go to prepare for Feng Yu to come; the two of you go get the round fan to fan your Majesty; you... "【1】

Knowing that he was familiar with the road, he dismissed the maids, and then bowed to Wei Huai'an himself: "Mother, this servant will supervise them for you."

After getting Wei Huaian's permission, Zhiluo left.

In an instant, only Wei Huaian, Governor Yang and Shangshu Liu were left in the imperial garden.

Wei Huaian took out an envelope he had prepared before leaving the house from his sleeve, and handed it to Dudu Yang.

Governor Yang understood it, took it, opened it and scanned the contents of the envelope.However, out of his usual vigilance, the first thing Governor Yang paid attention to was the font inside the letter.

After noticing that the font was indeed Wei Wu's, Governor Yang suppressed the inexplicable uneasiness in his heart.

I saw the letter read: "I have been experiencing various things in recent days. Logically speaking, my Wei family has always followed the words of the sages and never formed cliques. However, what His Majesty has done recently is really chilling. Your majesty's wings are becoming fuller day by day. As a minister who cares about the country and the people, I am naturally very pleased with your majesty's various reform actions. However, your majesty is gradually forgetting his roots and forgetting who helped him, and he actually pointed the finger at the past Only ministers who are loyal to him. This really chills me..."

"...As a fellow minister, I understand your difficulties, and I also understand the reason why your lips are dead and your teeth are cold. It is you today, and who will it be tomorrow..."

After he finished reading the letter, he couldn't help being moved by what he said in his heart.Obviously it was just a play, but while he was reading, he only felt that Wei Xiang's writing style was really good, every word was like a needle pricking his heart.

That's right, today it's just the Yangliu family.But now that these two families have been moved, how can the rest of the family be better?Human interests will not be satisfied.After His Majesty feels the benefits brought by the interests of the aristocratic family to the imperial power today, His Majesty will never give up!
And if they sit and wait to die, where will there be a position in the world in the future?
After reading the letter, Governor Yang already believed most of it.

However, upon noticing something mentioned in the letter, Dudu Yang couldn't help but frowned, then showed the letter to Liu Shangshu, and asked Wei Huai'an himself: "Mother, why didn't Prime Minister Wei come to talk to the minister himself, but instead Is it for you to come and tell the minister?"

Governor Yang could basically guess the content of this letter, but when he saw that Wei Huaian was asked to come and talk to him, Governor Yang was surprised and a little wary.

Although Wei Huai'an is the daughter of Wei Wu, but in the same way, Wei Huai'an is also the mother of a country.

Yang Dudu couldn't figure out whether Wei Huai'an was on his father's side or his husband's side.

What if this is a trap set up by the current emperors and empresses?
But since Wei Huai'an dared to pretend to imitate Wei Wu's handwriting to write this letter, he had certainly thought of this possibility.

Wei Huai'an didn't show any panic on his face. Instead, he sneered at Dudu Yang's suspicion. It seemed that the other party's behavior was ridiculous, and he said slowly: "Dudu Yang is a noble person who forgets things. Could it be that you have forgotten Zhou Yushi's impeachment this morning? Who is the person?"

Governor Yang gave a meal.Aren't they the ones Zhou Yushi impeached?
"It's an eventful time now, even my father can't guarantee that there are no people from His Majesty watching over him. If you don't mind being discovered, it's fine if you want to have an interview with my father."

Dudu Yang was reminded, and only then did he realize that things are different now, and caution should be the first priority in everything.He nodded, but this time he admired sincerely: "Wei Xiang still thinks thoroughly."

Liu Shangshu, who had just read the content written in the letter, also resolved some doubts in his heart after hearing this.However, Liu Shangshu pondered for a moment, and then asked: "Then, madam, according to the meaning of Wei Xiang's letter, that is to say, Wei Xiang has already thought of a way and informed the empress. I wonder if the empress can tell the minister?"

"That's natural." Wei Huai'an saw that they had all taken the bait, with a satisfied smile on his face, and then told them what he had planned.

 [1] Fengyu: "Ming Huidian": Phoenix sedan chair, (top) painted with gold and copper beads, top four corners, painted with gold and copper flying phoenix (four).Zhai Wen is painted on three sides. (Scarlet lacquered wooden car poles,) decorated with gold-painted copper phoenix head and phoenix tail.

  The setting here that the rights of aristocratic families can sometimes suppress imperial power is probably based on the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties when the centralization system was not so perfect and the imperial examination was not proposed.
