Chapter 255 Falling into the water

"Brother Qiu has now been transferred from the palace, and the eunuchs and palace maids around His Majesty have been replaced. Princess Taiping's personnel have been gradually removed. Even Eunuch Wei has shown signs of falling out of favor in recent days. It is not as easy to obtain news as before." Wang Ji explained first, and then said, "It's just that His Majesty seems to have fallen in love with drinking recently. He has to call up concubines for banquets almost every day. It is said that he has been drunk several times in the palace to curse all the ministers."

Sure enough, the country of the Great Wei will undergo a major change. Wang Xun remembered the strange scene he saw on the Qingbox Building in the old house of Wang's family in Langya County. Ying Huo violated Taiwei as a sign of chaos in the world. Since then, Tang Kuo's troops first invaded the border and then personally led the army to fight. Hundreds of thousands of elite troops in the Great Wei have been lost. Now the emperor and civil and military officials are incompatible. Without the support of the nobles, he may not be able to sit on the dragon throne for long.

In addition, the north has been drought for years, the south has been flooded, and the court has not built water conservancy for many years. Small disasters that were not worth mentioning decades ago can displace the people. There are also more and more local tyrants and evil gentry who took the opportunity to annex the land and forced more and more people to survive. The Great Wei was full of chaos.

When he went to Mobei, there were frequent reports of the Wang family's sons in the west that Arubu, the leader of the Tang Kuo tribe in Mobei, was wise and decisive. In addition, Yuan Zhang sorted out his internal affairs, and he had a great scene of invading the Central Plains to achieve a career. In addition, there were heroes in Yansui Town in the northwest who rose up and were fair in their work. His subordinates were willing to die for him, which was quite a kingly aura.

The Qianlong I saw on the Qingbox Tower that day, there were more than these two people. There were also strange scenes in the southeast. At this critical moment, Wang Xun did not dare to continue to recuperate in his hometown of Langya County. Instead, he set out to the capital to explore the changes in the world, hoping to prepare as soon as possible. Now, there are Wang's children changing their names and surnames in the north and northwest of Mo family, but there is no place in the southeast. When Wang Ji heard about the face of the young Jiazhou Bo, Wang Xun immediately became interested, but it was not a small matter at this time. He still needed to observe for a while before he could decide.

"Don't make a decision on your release. I still can't figure out what this Jiazhou Bo has done." After careful consideration, Wang Xun ordered, "I will stay in the capital for a while to help you keep an eye on the news about Yunzhou and Jiazhou. When you make a decision for your father, you will find a suitable place for you to release."

Li You had a great contribution to protecting the emperor, and he still held a military power in his hand that could determine the situation in the capital. There was Princess Taiping outside. Qian Sa had a strong relationship with someone like Qian Sa. If Wang Xun was in such a room, he would probably think about how to control the emperor and overwhelm Yang Jiefu and other civil servants. Unexpectedly, Li You easily gave up this hard-won good situation and returned to his hometown in Jiazhou to organize a group training. This made Wang Xun a little confused, so he temporarily suppressed Wang Ji's outward release.

"Yes, my son obeys the order." Wang Xun's analysis of the noble just now had convinced Wang Jixin, so even if he had any doubts in his heart, he would only think that there were many things he had not figured out. He dared not argue at the moment and planned to go back and make up the matters of these days before talking about them.

"Well, you go down and rest." Before leaving, Wang Xun did not forget to remind him, "In my opinion, Yang Jiefu should think about dealing with Qiu Shangjian these days. You should be more alienated from him for the time being."

"This" Wang Ji was stunned. After all, he was just a young man in his twenties, and the passion of young people was indispensable in his heart. Now he heard that his father wanted to give up his friend himself, he couldn't accept it for a while.

"It's an extraordinary time now, so you must not let my Wang family suffer because of a moment of impulse." Wang Xun said word by word. Although his tone was not strict, Wang Ji still couldn't breathe.

"Boy, boy, I understand." Wang Ji knew that his cherishment of friendship made his father dissatisfied. After saluting, he withdrew from the house. Looking at his disappearing back, Wang Xun narrowed his eyes. He seemed to see that his beloved son's waist seemed not as straight as when he came in.

After coming out of the backyard, Wang Ji stared at the moon in the sky blankly. Countless people envied him for having a prominent background, but only he knew how much he needed to give up as a child of aristocratic family that had lasted for thousands of years. The reputation of the family and the glory of thousands of years have been pressed on his shoulders since he was a child, which made him almost breathless. Sometimes he would rather be born in a poor family, even if he had no luxury, he would not have to be so restrained.

Depressed, Wang Ji wanted to whistle to the sky, but thinking about his father in the backyard and the prominent names in the ancestral hall of the old house, he did not shout out after all. He could only shake his head and sigh, and slowly went back to the room to rest.

Wang Ji has been living a very depressed life recently, and Li Gui is also depressed during this period. Since the news that he ordered the county horses for Princess Taiping have spread, he saw that the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace were like spies photographed from outside. No matter what he did, they would quickly spread the news, either to Princess Taiping or to Yang Jiefu.

It is precisely because of this reason that he fell in love with drinking. The drunken feeling made him forget the great etiquette that he had not been able to pass so far, the disastrous defeat of the imperial army, the dripping blood outside the Chang'an Gate, the King of Huang outside the palace, and the hypocritical faces in the court.

"Give wine!" Li Gui, who came to the Imperial Garden today, had a drink. The colorful flowers in the garden could not make him feel better. Only fine wine can relieve his sorrow.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Doctor said you are a little weak recently, so you must not drink anymore!" Wei Shiliang, who was serving him, hurriedly knelt down and begged.

"You're just talking too much." This old face made Li Gui even more disgusted. He stared at Wei Shiliang for a long time, and suddenly raised his voice, "Come on, drag this old slave down and hit the top twenty more boards,"

Even the most beloved Eunuch Wei was beaten, and no one dared to speak for the other eunuchs and palace maids. He immediately rushed to get some wine and side dishes for Li Gui, and held a banquet for Li Gui in the pavilion beside the Huai'an pond.

After drinking three glasses of fine wine, Lee Kyu seemed to be revitalized. He swayed to the fence while drinking, leaning against the fence and staring at his reflection in the water.

"Why? Are you laughing at me?" The reflection of the water made him feel more angry, who was already drunk and he smashed the wine pot directly.

The waves swayed and his face dissipated, but before Li Gui was happy, the ripples gradually subsided, and the hateful face appeared in his eyes again.
