There is no "if" in the world, at least for Yu Wenhu, there is no chance to come back again with all the memories. Even if he has some imagination, it can only turn into helplessness and regret in the end.
Li Tai left Yuwen Hu here. In addition to reuniting him with his mother, he also had other questions he wanted to ask.
When he saw that his mood had calmed down a little, he looked at Yu Wenhu again and said: "Since I left the mansion last year, I have been away from home for a long time, and I am also unfamiliar with the people in the mansion. Now I am entrusted by the late Otsuka Prime Minister to handle it.
Family affairs, but I am also quite unfamiliar with the people in the sect. So I would like to ask Brother Sabao, according to your opinion, who of the sect is worthy of being the heir?"
The inheritance of a title after a person's death originally involves direct descendants and elders. But Yuwentai's situation is a bit special. There are no direct descendants and elders. Unlike He Basheng, the He Batayue brothers only have two.
Each of the boys had heirs, and it was quite a headache for who would have the heirs for the little carrots under the family.
Nowadays, Yu Wenyong, the oldest of Yuwen Tai’s disciples, is only twelve years old. Although his talents have been good in history, it does not require any imperial strategy to inherit the Yuwen family business, and Yuwen Yong is not a person with long life in history.
People. Moreover, Yu Wenzhi, Yu Wenyong’s direct brother, is not a law-abiding person. If this branch becomes dominant, will it bully Yu Wentai’s other children in the future?
Based on the performance of the Yuwen family members, Li Tai thinks that Yu Wenxian is a better successor. But his knowledge is limited to his understanding of historical figures. Is Yu Wenxian really suitable for the current Yuwen family?
In this situation, Yu Wenhu, the nephew who has been helping Yu Wentai with his family affairs for a long time, should also have more say.
"Boshan is willing to honor my uncle. He is so attentive to family affairs, which makes me even more ashamed of my past!"
When Yu Wenhu heard Li Tai's question, he couldn't help but sigh.
Li Tai can certainly say that he has a clear conscience regarding the treatment of Yu Wentai Airong. As for Yuwen Jue's behavior, he arranged for his people to complete Yu Wentai's funeral before being tortured, so he was taken care of in terms of human relations.
When discussing the posthumous title of Yu Wentai, some suggested that He Ba should be given the posthumous title of Wuzhuang, while others suggested that Huan Wen should be given the posthumous title of Xuanwu. However, after weighing the matter, Li Tai decided to give the posthumous title to the higher-ranking Wu.
become.
Although Yu Wentai's life experience is also consistent with his death in the wilderness and failure of force, his actions in Guanzhong can be said to be an attempt to stabilize the people and establish governance, and in the end, he was barely able to help the prime minister overcome his death and eliminate the sins of him and his nephew.
As for the posthumous title of Xuanwu, it would inevitably impose an invisible personnel shackles on Yuwentai's sons.
Of course, there are no limits to people's pursuit of morality, especially when they don't have to bear the cost themselves. They can freely criticize others and demand that others implement higher moral standards. After all, as long as this standard is raised, the commentator himself will gain
A sublimated pleasure.
But many times, people who do things still have to base themselves on reality. If things go too far, they will collapse, and if love goes too far, they will become excessive. Jiangdong Xiao Bodhisattva's lesson is not far away. Such people still cannot become Buddhas, but they also teach people to know when enough is enough.
When things got to this point, Li Tai was willing to ask Yuwen Hu who was more suitable to be Yuwentai's heir, because he did not regard arranging Yuwentai's family affairs as a temporary show, but wanted to see Yuwentai's family lineage passed down.
At this point, the main thing is naturally that Yuwentai's descendants must know how to manage the family.
After some thought, Yu Wenhu spoke again and said: "My uncle's ninth breath, Pu Letu, is worthy of being his heir."
"Brother Sabao, are you sure?"
Li Tai really doesn't know how many sons Yu Wentai has, nor what is the situation of this son named Puletu, but as the fourth son, Yuwen Yong is only twelve years old, and as the ninth son, Pu Letu
The Letu will naturally be smaller.
Yu Wenhu nodded firmly, and then explained to Li Tai: "My uncle has few sons, and it is difficult for anyone to be the heir. It is not so much choosing who to be the heir, but choosing to be the mistress of the family. Pule Tuzhi
My mother is Mrs. Xiao Erzhu. In recent years, my uncle has arranged me to take charge of the household affairs. Although she does not have the name of mistress, she has the actual status of mistress. If I choose someone else as my heir, I am afraid there will be hidden conflicts.
What's more, when the young disciples who are getting stronger and stronger are ready to serve, Duke Tang's kindness and righteousness have not slackened, and they can still take care of them. Even if they lose their heirs, they have their own orders and talents to use. Given the size of Duke Tang, these disciples can still stay in their prime.
You can have a trouble-free future.”
"Brother Sabao sees things very carefully and clearly, just as you said."
Perhaps only when people abandon their original positions and prejudices can they understand each other more objectively. It was only at the end of the road that Yuwen Hu realized that Li Tai was really loyal and willing to properly arrange his uncle's funeral. After listening to Yu Wenhu's advice, Li Tai
Afterwards, he also understood why Yuwentai entrusted Yuwenhu to handle his family affairs for a long time.
The so-called friendship will always fade over time. Li Tai is still willing to take care of Yuwentai's sons. However, as time goes by, Yuwentai's influence weakens, and many years later, he may not be as good as he was at the beginning.
kind of concern.
Therefore, even if Yu Wenyong and the other slightly older ones are not heirs, they will inevitably receive some personnel care and will not be unknown. And if the younger sons do not have a kind and protective shield right now, I am afraid that they will be in trouble when they become adults.
Lost everyone.
Even if the factor of Xiaoer Zhu's family is not taken into account, the arrangement proposed by Yu Wenhu is deeply in line with the world. He is really willing to take care of Yu Wentai's family affairs, but when he is in the whirlpool of current politics, people
The state of mind and behavior will be distorted by power.
After putting away the emotion in his heart, Li Tai stood up, dusted off his clothes, and clasped his fists at Yuwenhu and said, "Brother Sa Bao, I will never live this life again. I will also leave a few breaths under your sect and inherit your title to support your benevolent relatives. The rest will be left to the world.
If you let him wander, there may be young men who are as ambitious as my father and may have more meritorious deeds!"
"Thank you so much, Duke Tang! I wish Duke Tang will rule the world and create a prosperous world!"
After hearing this, Yu Wenhu burst into tears and said goodbye.
Li Tai stayed another night in Weinan, and set off for Chang'an the next day. He arrived outside Chang'an City in the evening of New Year's Eve, and then went to Longyuan Academy to stay, preparing to enter the court at dawn tomorrow morning.
Yuan Day Ceremony.
In the evening, when the sky was dark, when Li Tai drove into the school, he saw someone kneeling outside the school door. He did not stop and wait until the car entered the school, and then summoned the general who was staying here.
, asked what was going on in front of the door, and then found out that it was Gao Ping Li Xian and the former general Hou Mo Chen Qiong who came to the academy to kneel down and beg to see the foreign minister yesterday and today respectively.
Li Tai then took the notices submitted by the two people from his family, which briefly stated why they asked for an audience. Li Xian's statement was more complicated, while Hou Mo and Chen Qiong only said that they hoped that Tang Gong would be interviewed to tell the story of Shannan.
.
After Li Tai read it, he sneered, threw Hou Mo Chen Qiong's greeting card out of the car, and told his family: "Go and sue him. We are busy with internal and external affairs at the moment and have no time to talk about the past. After everything is decided for the coming year, we will call again."
I'll see you when I enter the house."
Hou Mo and Chen Qiong came here to ask for an audience, simply because they wanted to intercede for his brother again. But this approach made Li Tai feel even more dissatisfied. This had nothing to do with nostalgia for the past. These people felt that they wanted to be powerful ministers of the hegemony after entering the dynasty.
Or do I want to be the irritated little daughter-in-law, listening to you talk about everyday complaints and grievances? I have talked about it to Hou Mo and Chen Chong before, but I still can’t understand it!
On the other hand, although Li Xian has been staying in Yuanzhou Township, far away from the center of power, he understands the current situation better than the Hou Mochen brothers. So after Li Tai got off the bus at the academy, he took Li Xian and others
Bring in and meet.
"The criminal Li Xian, together with one hundred and thirty-six men and women, set out for the capital on the day he knew he was guilty. He entered the capital yesterday. Everyone, young and old, is waiting outside the door to be sentenced by Duke Tang!"
Li Xian's beard and hair were messy, his face was pale and haggard, his lips were cracked and covered with blood stains. After entering the hall, he held a name book in both hands and bowed in front of Li Tai's table. At the same time, he continued: "Xian really doesn't know about the disputes in the former house. He only heard that his brother is far away."
My nephew Zhi returned to report to the Turks. He knew that this dangerous plot was extremely sinful. A certain family has always been loyal and righteous, so how could it be such an evil plan? So he immediately killed Yuan Zhi. Another nephew, who was lucky enough to be the chief minister of Otsuka, was not able to do it.
Anyone who dares to be punished by law will be punished here, and the whole family, young and old, will be punished by Duke Tang!"
Li Mu also followed his brother and set up two square baskets. After opening them, the heads of Li Yuan, Li Zhi and his son were revealed. Li Mu paused again and said: "Yuan, this is the head of the two sinners Zhi."
, as my brother said, all the criminals in the family are sleeping outside to be punished, but one person is free, so my brother is willing to suffer the death penalty of mutilation!"
Li Tai asked someone to present the heads of Li Yuan and his son. After a brief inspection, he put Li Yuan's heads in a box and walked down the hall and placed them in front of Li Xian. As for his list of men and women, he took them and stuffed them back.
Li Xian sighed in his arms and said: "Yuan, father and son Zhi have their own way of death, and they must be punished for their crimes. Why should the young and old in the family deserve to be punished? Why should they be frightened by this running around."
"There is such filth in the family. It is known that the upbringing is not careful. It is hard to be called wise when running a family. How dare you try to guess the will of your superiors and escape from the law. The kindness and power come from the will of the superiors, and the crime is rejected by Duke Tang. The whole family is full of filth.
With this in mind, Yang Gong makes a wise decision!"
Li Xian bowed deeply to the ground again and said in a deep voice.
