Wei Wuhou

Chapter 162 The Roar of Father and Son

Wei Wuji stood outside the door, his legs seemed to be stuck to the floor, unable to move at all.

The distance of those few steps made him feel as far away as the end of the world.

While Wei Wuji was in a daze, a deep voice came from the hall.

"Come on... just come in!"

It was Wei Hou's voice, which made Wei Wuji's body tense and thoughts flooded his mind.

But in the end, he still took a step, and after the servant helped to lift the curtain, he walked slowly into the hall.

Wei Wuji's first impression of the hall was that it was big, and the second was that it was deep.

Although he was only more than ten meters away from Marquis Wei, Wei Wuji clearly felt that the distance between him and Marquis Wei was as far away as heaven and earth.

After staying for a while, Wei Wuji suddenly woke up, and then smiled in his heart, this is not the distance between father and son.

This is the distance between king and subject, this is the distance between heaven and earth...

"Minister... Wei Wuji, pay homage to your majesty!" Kneeling on the ground, Wei Wuji bowed deeply again and knocked his head on the floor of the hall.

"Get up!" Wei Hou's voice on the throne became deeper and lower, pressing down on Wei Wuji's head like a mountain peak.

Standing up with difficulty, Wei Wuji stood with his hands down, without saying a word.

The hall suddenly returned to calm, Wei Wuji didn't know what Wei Hou was doing, and Wei Hou didn't know what his son was thinking.

After a long time, after a long time, Wei Hou said, "You all stand down!"

"Yes..." All the servants in the hall bowed down in unison, their eyes full of relief.

As the number of people in the hall decreased, Wei Wuji became more and more anxious. He didn't know what he was about to face.

In this summer, although it was almost dark, the warm current in the air still made people feel hot, and Wei Wuji felt that his front and back were soaked.

"I heard...you were assassinated?"

Wei Wuji was taken aback by the first sentence Wei Hou said, how did he know?
But when he thought of the existence of Fengyingsi, both civil and military, he felt that everything could be explained.

"It's just a few thieves!" Wei Wuji replied softly, not knowing Wei Hou's intentions, he still had some reservations.

Unexpectedly, Wei Hou said, "You are not covered up anymore, the widows already know about the attack more than 20 days ago!"

Wei Hou said it so clearly, Wei Wuji naturally had no need to cover up.

But he didn't change his mind about it, he wanted to see what Wei Hou meant, so he chose to remain silent.

After staring at Wei Wuji for a long time, Marquis Wei let out a long sigh, "I have ordered the Zong Zhengfu to make up for the lost guards."

Wei Wuji still didn't speak, just stood there straight.

Wei Hou continued, "In addition, the number of your bodyguards has been raised to 60 by the widow."

Wei Wuji just bowed down as a way of expressing his gratitude, but then there was no movement again.

But he didn't move, and Weihou above didn't speak anymore, and the situation became deadlocked again.

"You have nothing to say?" After a while, Wei Hou asked aloud.

A person was assassinated and almost died. If he had nothing to say in his heart and behaved calmly, it would be too abnormal.

Wei Wuji struggled hard, he wanted to say too much, but he didn't know how to speak.

After mustering up his courage, Wei Wuji raised his head and said to Weihou above, "Father will find out who is behind the scenes?"

Wei Wuji's question is undoubtedly superfluous, even wrong.Because of this indirect proof, he didn't trust his father.

"What do you mean by that?" Marquis Wei's mood didn't fluctuate, as if he was asking something very ordinary.

"The son is just asking. If the father finds the matter difficult, the son is willing to share his worries." Wei Wuji raised his head again, showing a determined look on his face.

He was apprehensive just now, but as soon as the words came out of his mouth, he went all out.

From Wei Hou's sentence "What do you mean by that", Wei Wuji can guess that his father is definitely not going to investigate strictly.

This further shows that Wei Wuji's original guess was correct, and the main messenger behind the scenes is very likely to be inside the palace wall and on the Zhanghuatai.

"Madam Wei..." Wei Wuji said bitterly in his heart, he was furious with this woman he had never met before.

"You want to share the worries of the widow?" Wei Hou repeated Wei Wuji's words, looking very tired.

The matter of the palace is kept secret, even Wei Hou is unwilling to reveal it so clearly.

This time Wei Hou called Wei Wuji over, just to warn him not to act rashly, but Wei Wuji said that he wanted to investigate to the end.

"I know... now that you have grown up, many things are clear, and you have your own ideas..." Marquis Wei's voice was low, but his tired face did not look like a king.

Wei Wuji didn't understand, he didn't know what Wei Hou meant by these words, what he wanted to express.

Wei Hou's words continued, "You will feel wronged in your heart after being assassinated. This widow knows, but..."

"The widow hopes that you will put the overall situation first...don't say anything about this matter." Having said this, Wei Hou looked at Wei Wuji with eyes full of brilliance again.

This made Wei Wuji understand that what Wei Hou said was not a joke, but that he really wanted to do that himself.

Wei Wuji suddenly felt ridiculous, is this really his biological father?His own son was assassinated, so it's fine if he doesn't find out the real culprit, and let himself, the victim, swallow the bitter fruit.

"Why?" Wei Wuji growled, no matter how rebellious he was, he still had to ask clearly.

"Hehe...why?" Wei Hou sneered, his eyes troubled by tiredness again.

Wei Wuji stared fixedly at the top, he was about to get an answer.

"You already know in your heart who is behind the scenes, but I can't let you drag her out!" Wei Hou said in a deep voice.

He had understood before that that the reason why Wei Wuji didn't embrace the Wu'an order was that he was waiting for him to come back before revealing the matter.

"Why?" Wei Wuji said again, he couldn't accept this kind of treatment.

"Once you do that, it will inevitably cause an uproar, causing turmoil in the government and the public..." Wei Hou spoke a little fast, and his emotions seemed very excited.

Regarding Wei Hou's statement, Wei Wuji didn't say a word, he didn't agree that the matter would be that serious, even if it was that, it wouldn't be a reason for him to be wronged.

"Could it be that the father thinks that this is the only way for a child to be humiliated?" Wei Wuji took a step forward and let out his own roar.

In the main hall, the distance between the father and son standing up and down has widened again.

"Then do you think your personal honor or disgrace is more important, or Wei's hundreds of years of foundation?" Marquis Wei slapped the table and roared in the same way.

But he also felt very uncomfortable. Looking at the young face below, he seemed to see his unwillingness more than ten years ago.

"If the child is not that important, the father will just let the son hit his head and bleed his blood, so why call me here to talk about these things." Wei Wuji is also passionate, and has already disregarded the etiquette of monarchs and ministers.

"You're presumptuous..." Wei Hou slapped the table again and stood up abruptly.

But Wei Wuji's stubborn eyes made Wei Hou touch the soft place in his heart again, which was too similar to her temper.

Facing Wei Hou Lei Ting's fury, Wei Wuji did not give in. He stood up straight and looked up at the tall figure.

"Why don't you understand!" Wei Hou finally put down his hand, and his whole momentum collapsed in an instant.
