When Xue Rengui mentioned Xue Ne, he looked solemn and said, "I feel ashamed to say that I have been following His Majesty for many years and devoted myself to His Majesty and the court. I have been away from home for many years but have neglected to discipline my dog. Fortunately, I am also a sensible person.
Small things are okay, but if you take on a big responsibility, you will never be able to do it.”
"I wonder what your Majesty wants to do with this person?"
Qin Huaidao had unconditional trust in Xue Rengui, so he had no intention of hiding what he wanted to do. He mentioned: "You should know that I once asked Xue Yan to establish a spy intelligence organization, which is independent of the Military Intelligence Department. This organization
It’s called ‘Eye of Heaven’.”
"In the case of the grain merchants, the Sky Eye found that there was a pair of invisible hands secretly controlling the matter. Upon closer inspection, it turned out that many hidden forces in the country were involved. Therefore, we need to send an undercover agent who is trustworthy and can find support in various places in time."
"Undercover?"
Xue Rengui didn't understand this term. Seeing his confusion, Qin Huaidao explained: "It requires one person to pretend to surrender to the enemy, and then steal information from the enemy to become the internal agent and eyeliner of the Sky Eye."
Xue Rengui understood. He cupped his hands and said: "I understand, but Your Majesty, Dog is kind-hearted by nature, so it may not be suitable for him to be a spy, but I do have an excellent candidate."
"oh?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Huaidao immediately became interested.
"Brother Xue, tell me quickly."
I saw Xue Rengui asking him: "I wonder if your majesty remembers that Wei Zheng has a son in his hometown?"
"You mean Wei Shuyu?"
Wei Shuyu was the son of Wei Zheng, an important minister of the Ministry of State. Qin Huaidao heard this name accidentally when communicating with Wei Zheng. Whenever he talked about this person, Wei Zheng would shake his head and sigh.
He has always respected the law and taken pride in rules. He has no tolerance for disgrace in his eyes. Even if the emperor makes a mistake, he will point it out outright. He is the first direct minister who is famous all over the world.
But his son is completely different.
Not to mention that Wei Shuyu did not inherit Wei Zheng's proud character. He often traveled to various places and traveled among mountains and rivers. He knew a little about the customs and customs of various places. He often called himself Wei Ran, and there was no trace of him on weekdays.
Completely the opposite of Wei Zheng.
If he were in Chang'an, he would indeed be a good candidate.
Thinking of this, Qin Huaidao raised his head and looked at Xue Rengui: "Where is Uncle Wei's beauty now?"
Xue Rengui cupped his hands and said, "I heard that he went on a study trip to Longyou Road last autumn and just returned recently. I think he was still scolded and grounded by Mr. Wei at home, so he can't go out for the time being."
"If you can't get over the mountain, I'll go over there and take a trip to the Wei Mansion with me."
"promise."
The two of them left the Ganlu Palace together, and Luo Wu took fifty guards in royal robes to protect him. Chang'an was not at peace recently, and he would not let Qin Huaidao leave the palace quietly alone.
Although he knew that His Majesty's martial arts skills were the best in the world.
The group was about to go to Zhuque Street when they suddenly remembered that the grain merchants might still be blocking the entrance to the palace. After thinking about it, Qin Huaidao took them to turn around and go through the side door. After all, the case had not yet been investigated. If they happened to bump into these grain merchants, they would be killed.
If you hold on, time will be delayed.
It's not that he is afraid of these grain merchants, nor is it that he is unwilling to deal with this matter. As long as the truth is not found out, any explanation can be easily misunderstood and overturned. The best way is to find out the matter as soon as possible in order to comfort those who have died.
Man’s spirit in heaven.
After taking a detour, everyone hurriedly left the palace and passed through several neighborhoods before arriving at the Wei Mansion.
Sure enough, as Xue Rengui expected, Wei Zheng was roaring in the mansion at this moment.
"You rebellious son, as Confucius said, your parents are not traveling far away, and which of the young people in your generation is not studying hard to obtain fame? You are good. You ran to Shannan Road today and set off in the direction of Longyou Road tomorrow. The day after tomorrow
We may be reaching Jiangnan Road, how could I give birth to such a wild thing like you? I am really angry!"
Another confrontational voice came from the house: "You have backward ideas. As the saying goes, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. How can those idiots who sit in the house and study hard have the open-mindedness like me after seeing the mountains and rivers?"
"You are so open-minded!"
Wei Shuyu's behavior made Wei Zheng angry and cursed. He pointed at his nose and cursed angrily: "You are young, you don't have a youthful spirit, you don't want to serve the country and be loyal, and you don't want to be in the imperial examination and soar into the sky. If you want to be so open-minded and generous,
What’s the use?”
"These two words are meant for us elderly people."
Wei Shuyu said: "My father has always been stubborn. He always thinks that he is right no matter what. But who can listen to the word "open-minded" and who can make the decision? In my generation, everyone can seek fame, wealth or wealth.
If you are content in a corner, why can't you be open-minded?"
When Wei Zheng heard the word stubborn, he exploded on the spot.
"Okay, you rebellious son, you dare to contradict me. Do you know that in the court, even if His Majesty does something wrong and I say a few words to him, he will give me a thumbs up and praise me? You actually
Call me stubborn, if I don’t beat you to pieces today, my surname will not be Wei!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of bamboo whipping and the wailing of a young man could be heard in the mansion.
"It's broken, hurry in." Qin Huaidao and Xue Rengui each quickened their pace.
Before anyone arrived, the voice came first. Just as Wei Zheng was holding up the bamboo stick and preparing to hit the unscrupulous man a few more times, Qin Huaidao's voice sounded faintly: "Sir Wei, wait a moment."
Wei Zheng felt that the voice was familiar, so he turned around and looked back, just in time to see Qin Huaidao leading Xue Rengui hurriedly into the house.
He was suddenly shocked. He didn't know when His Majesty came. Could it be that all the words he just taught his son were overheard by them?
Without any time to think about it, he and Wei Shuyu all bowed to Qin Huaidao.
"Wei Zheng, a humble minister, and Wei Shuyu, a common man, pay homage to Your Majesty."
"Get up quickly. There is no need to stick to this ritual at home. Mr. Wei, I heard that your young master set off for a study trip last autumn and only returned a few days ago. It is rare to see him again. I think this whipping is not necessary. You two
Let's talk about our feelings and experiences." Qin Huaidao laughed loudly, patted his arm towards Wei Zheng, and took the bamboo stick out of his hand.
Seeing that Wei Zheng had lost the bamboo stick, Wei Shuyu felt relieved. He gratefully thanked Qin Huaidao: "Thank you for your help, Your Majesty. Mr. Wei, regardless of his background as a civil servant, he is more brave than many generals when he fights his son."
At this time, Wei Zheng's face was not good-looking. For him, it didn't matter that this son did not seek fame. He could be a wealthy man in Chang'an and wait for him to inherit his title after a hundred years.
No matter how bad things are, you can follow the example of Cheng Chu, Mo Fang Yiai and others, follow His Majesty into the army and hone your skills, and you can become a good general in the future.
But this kid insisted on traveling thousands of miles to see all the beautiful places.
Isn't this a joke?
If he hadn't been his biological son, Wei Zheng would have kicked him out of the house long ago.
