Zhe Jinchun

Chapter 389

The two Xue brothers have always disagreed, and now they are even more distinct.What's strange is that both Xue Yunyan and Xue Yunheng seemed extremely calm at this moment. It is conceivable that debates like this should happen frequently between the two.

"Using deceitful methods in the name of the family to evade the responsibility that should be on one's own body is really against the way of a minister." With a sneer on his lips, Xue Yunheng said unceremoniously: "Father deliberately offended both of you at the beginning. The prince's mother's family is to avoid today's responsibility. Naturally, I admit that my father's move can be called wisdom, even great wisdom, but I have to say that although this move is wise, it is not benevolent. "

"This is the benevolence of a wise man. Don't you really understand the second brother?" Xue Yunyan's calm brows and eyes were filled with chills. How can you and I discuss right and wrong here? I’m afraid we’ve already been involved in right and wrong.”

Speaking of this, he suddenly hooked his lips, and looked at Xue Yunheng meaningfully: "Second brother came from a long way away, could it be that he just came to visit me?"

The implication is that Xue Yunheng fled to Pingcheng because he was hiding from truth and wrong, and it is the same as Duke Xue's pretending to be sick.

Xue Yunheng's long eyebrows raised immediately, and he flicked his sleeves awe-inspiringly: "Brother, what you said is wrong. I came here because of filial piety; when I discussed this matter with my elder brother, it's righteousness. This is the best I can do, I, Xue Erlang , with a clear conscience."

Indeed, Duke Xue would rather pretend to be sick than get involved in the affairs of the Huan family. Although Xue Yunheng disagreed, he could not openly disagree with his father, so he left. This is his filial piety as a son.

But he was arguing with Xue Yunyan at this moment, and he didn't abide by the rule of "the son never speaks of the father's fault", but this is his righteousness as a courtier.

This is indeed the best he can do.

An indescribable emotion flashed through Xue Yunyan's eyes as he looked at Xue Yunheng.

After a moment of silence, the aura on his body gradually relaxed. He sighed silently, and said, "I can only say that I thought that father was right. What father did was not only wise, but also for the Xue clan. Words are also benevolence. I know that in the eyes of the second brother, this kind of benevolence can only be called small benevolence, but the second brother will certainly not deny that the position of the three princes is not given up by anyone who says it, but the father does not. No love inn, no admiration for false fame, no greed for power. Isn't this enough to be called a 'scholar'?"

Indeed, in the face of the position of Da Situ, Duke Xue also let him go as soon as he said it. There are really not many people in this world who can do this, and it is all because he keeps a clear head all the time.

Don't underestimate the word "sober".Throughout the ages, how many people have been ruined by these two words.Being in the center of the highest power in Dachen, but being able to never be fascinated by wealth and power, but to put the Xue clan in the most secure position for consideration. It should be said that the Xue clan in Linqiu is like Duke Xue It is a blessing for the patriarch.

After hearing Xue Yunyan's words, the ridicule on Xue Yunheng's face faded.He frowned and thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "Indeed, father is indeed a model for scholars in this respect."

His words were very harsh, and the focus of his tone was on the words "this aspect". He paused for a moment, then suddenly changed the subject, and said decisively: "Of course, if it is for the sake of this so-called gentleman's integrity, then you will I would rather not be a gentleman who leaves the common people aside."

"If you don't participate in the affairs of the Huan family, do you mean abandoning the common people?" Xue Yunyan said immediately.

He looked up at the sky outside the corridor, his eyes were far away, and his voice was even more calm, even a little cold: "Since when has the dispute between the nobles become the common people's business? The common people don't even have food." If you can’t eat, why don’t you see these gentry putting in more effort? Father doesn’t want to get along with others, isn’t it right?”

Xue Yunheng was stunned for a moment.

Xue Yunyan was indeed right: the affairs of the Huan family have nothing to do with the common people.

Emperor Zhongyuan took the important ministers of the court to discuss this matter, and it was clear that he wanted to divide the power of the Huan family and remove the power of the Huan family.For these reasons, he didn't even care about the serious drought in Chen country, and he was thinking about how to check and balance the Huan family all day long.

Xue Yunheng himself looked down upon Emperor Zhongyuan's behavior.That being the case, is it really wrong for Mr. Xue Jun to keep his illness away from these unnecessary fights?
Xue Yunheng sat with his eyebrows folded, his hands resting on his knees clenched and then loosened, obviously thinking in his heart.

After a long time, he suddenly spread his palms flat, his frown relaxed, and he looked up at Xue Yunyan calmly, and said: "It's what scholars do when they are indifferent to fame and wealth; if a ruler has difficulties, but ministers solve them, this is The way that a courtier should have. I still think that there is no contradiction between helping the common people and sharing the worries of the emperor, and the path that father can take is not the only way to pretend to be sick."

After his words fell, the corridor became quiet again.

Xue Yunyan's gaze still stayed in the distance, and after a while, he just stood up and walked back.

This move meant that he didn't want to continue this topic anymore.

He couldn't persuade Xue Yunheng, just like Xue Yunheng couldn't persuade him.They are really brothers in vain. On many important matters, the two people's opinions are often completely different, and they can't agree at all.

Seeing him walking back, Xue Yunheng got up too, and the two of them still walked along the corridor one after the other.After a while, it was Xue Yunyan who broke the silence first.

"Second brother said that father is avoiding trouble. From my point of view, even if father is afraid, he will not be able to avoid it." Speaking of this, he turned to look at Xue Yunheng with a solemn expression: "We need to make plans early."

Xue Yunheng didn't speak, but his expression also became solemn.

Even though the two have different political views, the Xue family must remain unanimous in this matter.No matter how independent Xue Yunheng was, he never forgot that his surname was Xue.

After saying that, Xue Yunyan turned around and continued walking forward, his gray robe was billowing in the wind, and his voice seemed to be blown by the wind, a little fluttering: "If necessary, you can talk to Huan Good friends."

Xue Yunheng stopped suddenly, with a strange look on his face: "How do you say that?" He lowered his voice and asked, with the word "Chuan" drawn between his brows.

Xue Yunyan didn't answer his question, but changed the question again: "The Lu family's matter, and the ten-kill case, what have you found out?"

Xue Yunheng was stunned for a moment, as if he was very puzzled by his change of topic, but after thinking about it, he seemed to understand a little bit, and couldn't help curling his lips.

If the Huan clan... No, he will definitely return to court.They have recuperated in western Liaoning for many years, and their strength has gradually recovered. Once they return, they will definitely change the pattern of the court.

In order to maintain the stability of Dachen and protect the common people from the struggles of the gentry, it can be said that there is no way to make friends with the Huan family.

Thinking of this, Xue Yunheng inexplicably felt a little better in his heart, and the expression on his face became gentler.
