The first-class concubine of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 140 Lingo
After Liu Wei left, the people outside the capital gradually dispersed.

Su Tong saw that after returning to Kaifeng mansion, he recited Liu Wei's poem to the King of Jin. But it can also be called a good work, it's just... just some traces of artificiality."

Su Another looked at him with a slight smile: "My lord, the word Liu Wei is an affirmation to the lord and the saint!"

"To the King and the Holy One?"

"Exactly, my lord, please taste this word carefully. There is nothing wrong with saying goodbye on the last day, but this time it is different. The second man said that he intended to go into seclusion, but now he wants to become an official against his will. Of course, this is just the literal meaning. If we combine Liu Wei’s own situation, it’s not hard to understand that Liu Wei doesn’t want to be a hermit, he may just want to be a carefree son-in-law, and has no intention of fighting in court, but now Lingnan is urgent , he had no choice but to give up his will to serve the country."

When Su Tongjian said this, he showed a slight smile, and King Jin nodded slightly: "Mr. is right. So, Liu Wei wants to show this King and the Holy One that he is wholeheartedly for my Great Song Dynasty?"

"That's what I mean, but from the point of view of my subordinates, Liu Wei still wants the Holy Majesty and the prince to trust him, trust him that he won't have second thoughts and let him do things."

"This……"

King Jin frowned slightly: "If you don't know Liu Wei, this king will really believe it after hearing his poem, but that Liu Wei is by no means an indifferent person. He wants this king to trust him and let everything go as he pleases. I'm afraid it won't be that easy."

Su Jiao didn't even refute it, after all, Liu Wei was very popular in the capital, saying that he only wanted to be a happy son-in-law, and no one would believe it.

It's just that you don't believe it or not, but now that Liu Wei has made such a word, with his reputation, this word will spread quickly, so they have to think about some things carefully.

"My lord, apart from showing his ambition, Liu Wei might also have the intention of forcing each other!"

"Forcing each other, who is he going to force?" King Jin's expression changed slightly, he didn't believe that a little son-in-law dared to do something persecuting him.

Seeing that Su was not panicked, he smiled slightly, and then said in a very calm tone: "There is a saying in the poem that Liu Wei originally wanted to be a hermit, whether you believe it or not, he just let the people in the world know that he has this intention. For one thing, if we persecute him too much, I’m afraid it will have the opposite effect, and we will really force him to be that happy hermit.”

"He... If he really has such an idea, this king will fulfill him."

King Jin's tone was cold, which showed that he was already a little angry. He is a majestic King Jin, is he still afraid of Liu Wei?
Su Tongkan shook his head: "Nowadays Liu Wei is famous all over the world, if we really let him become a hermit because our court is too aggressive, wouldn't that mean losing the hearts of scholars in the world? I believe that our imperial court really values ​​talents and literati, so what the imperial court said before is all empty talk?"

After reading Su Tongan's words, the King of Jin couldn't help being taken aback, and finally understood what Su Tongan meant by coercion. With Liu Wei's current situation, the imperial court had absolutely no reason to use it. If you want to lose the hearts of scholars in the world, you can only use him, but if you want to use him, you must use him without doubting, otherwise if he really plays his temper and becomes a hermit, the biggest loss will be the court.

This is Liu Wei's persecution, forcing the emperor and him, King Jin, not to push him too far.

King Jin's teeth itched with hatred.

"This king treats him well, but now that his wings are hardened, he actually plots against this king, hateful, hateful!"

As King Jin said, he looked at Su Tong and said, "Sir, what do you think we should do now?"

Su Another was not in a hurry, and smiled: "My lord, although Liu Wei is afraid that we will interfere with him in everything or completely monitor him, but if we don't say anything, can Liu Wei know that we have sent someone to monitor him? Since It’s not clear, we came in the dark; as for Liu Wei’s going to Xingwang’s mansion, he should go there, he went there to do things for me, Song, we should support it, and apart from him, we temporarily Can't find a suitable candidate."

At this point, Su Paused for a while, and then continued: "The general's orders are not accepted, as long as Liu Wei doesn't do anything too outrageous, we will do as he pleases, and Liu Wei just wrote A poem, these are still our conjectures, it is not worth it for the prince to be angry with him, and the prince has always admired him?"

King Jin was silent.

Su Tongkan continued: "No matter how famous Liu Wei is, he is just a minister like his subordinates, and he is a civil servant. As long as he has no military power in his hands, he will always obey the prince's orders."

After Su Tongan said this sentence, King Jin had a smile on his face, because Su Tongan's sentence finally made sense to him. As a prince, he might be the emperor in the future. What he wants is not a bunch of wine bags and rice bags Officials, what he wants are officials who can strengthen his Great Song Dynasty. If even people like him are jealous of talents, how can Great Song Dynasty be prosperous and strong?
"What you said is very true, so according to what you think, should this king go to see His Majesty?"

Su Another looked at it with a smile and shook his head: "No need, the Holy Majesty assigned Liu Wei a guard. Since the Holy Majesty did this, he was worried about Liu Wei, so what Liu Wei did could not escape the eyes of the Holy Majesty." , other people don't know the Holy Majesty's ability, presumably the prince should be clear about it."

King Jin nodded slightly.
-
The scenery outside the capital is pleasant, and the spring breeze blowing on his face feels indescribably comfortable.

Qin Yun was also puzzled by Liu Wei's words, but when the carriage was driving slowly on the road, she suddenly understood.

She and Liu Wei have experienced hardships together, and many things about Liu Wei are not secrets to her. She knows that Liu Wei has great ambitions, and it is absolutely impossible and never thought of becoming a hermit, so he must have a reason for writing this poem Metaphorically.

Although she is a woman, she also knows that the court is dangerous, and the high-ranking emperor is even more suspicious. Liu Wei is now far away, and it is the old capital of the Southern Han Dynasty. It is no wonder that the current emperor is at ease with him.

But the Holy Majesty was worried, so he would inevitably listen to other people's slander, especially Pan Mei. If Pan Mei slandered Liu Wei in the emperor's ears, the emperor would have to doubt Liu Wei and take actions to contain Liu Wei.

Qin Yun heard that Liu Wei was recommended by Pan Mei as the magistrate of Prince Xing's Mansion. Pan Mei knew that Liu Wei was the murderer who killed his son, so how could he recommend Liu Wei? There must be something wrong with it. , and Liu Weiding thought of this, so he wrote that poem to express his will to the people of the world and to the Holy One.

When Qin Yun thought of this, he already felt that he had figured it out, so he showed a dazed look, and when she showed a dazed look, she realized that Qin Yun was looking at him with a very strange look.

"County... princess..."

Princess Ruyi suddenly had two thoughts when she saw Qin Yun's sudden realization. One was that the woman in front of her knew her son-in-law better than her, and the other was that this woman was smarter than herself.

And these two ideas are both unbearable and unacceptable to Princess Ruyi. She is Liu Wei's wife. The person who knows Liu Wei best should be her, and her identity is much nobler than the woman in front of her. Can be smarter than yourself?

However, these two thoughts only flashed in Princess Ruyi's mind, and then disappeared without a trace, because she soon realized that she really didn't know much about Liu Wei. They are husband and wife, but they have not consummated their marriage, and they have never confessed their deepest secrets.

As for riches and honors, Princess Ruyi thinks more openly, can the world's nobles and humbles really be explained clearly?Her current status is indeed noble, but many years ago, she might not be as good as Qin Yun, right?
Princess Ruyi figured it out, and wanted to ask Qin Yun what she thought just now, but just as she was about to speak, she felt that it was inappropriate, mainly because she couldn't bear face. Although she figured it out just now, it was not easy to convince herself. To understand is to understand, but it takes time to really let go.

Therefore, when Qin Yun opened his mouth, Princess Ruyi showed a slight smile and asked: "Although Miss Qin and this princess have known each other for a long time, they have never really chatted. The journey is long, why don't we find some topics to talk about?" ?”

Qin Yun was originally a smart woman, she felt just now that what Princess Ruyi wanted to ask was definitely not this, but now that Princess Ruyi asked, it was naturally difficult for her to refuse, so she nodded repeatedly.

Princess Ruyi smiled and asked, "Where is Miss Qin's hometown?"

"In Prince Xing's Mansion."

"Is there anyone else in the family?"

"No... no more."

Princess Ruyi showed a trace of sadness, as if she was lamenting Qin Yun's fate, and seemed to be thinking of her own experience.

But soon, Princess Ruyi's expression changed slightly, and she continued to ask: "I heard that Miss Qin fled to the capital because she couldn't bear the tyranny of the Southern Han Dynasty, but is that so?"

Qin Yun nodded: "The empress of the Southern Han Dynasty oppressed the people in his position, and the people had no means of living. However, some aristocratic families in the Southern Han Dynasty only knew how to enjoy themselves. Hope, this is how I escaped all the way to Kaifeng."

"Miss Qin, a weak woman, was able to escape from the distant Xingwang Mansion to Kaifeng City. This courage alone is incomparable."

Qin Yun lied a little, and then quickly smiled and said: "The princess is very good, in this world, the will to survive is always very strong, especially for people like us. As long as we can survive, why not suffer a little bit?"

He still laughed at the beginning, but when he said the last sentence, his tone was almost sighing.

Princess Ruyi nodded in agreement, why hasn't she lived such a life?
"From Miss Qin's words, it seems that when she was in Xingwang's mansion, she was just a girl from an ordinary family?"

"Exactly."

Princess Ruyi smiled and nodded, but in her heart she felt that it was necessary for her to have a talk with her son-in-law.
