Changsun Sheng showed admiration, stroking his beard, nodded, and said in a test-like tone: "Wuji thinks this conflict was deliberately planned?"
Changsun Wuji nodded and said, "Yes, I thought someone had found out the time of Wang Junlin's entry into the city in advance, so he deliberately arranged this conflict."
Changsun Sheng's eyes flashed, he frowned in thought, he didn't know what he thought of, and remained silent for a long time. Changsun Wuji vaguely knew where his father was thinking, so he didn't say a word to disturb him.
"Mom, I know Wang Junlin is that very fierce uncle. Last time I heard from my second uncle that many people are afraid of him." When Changsun Wuji came in, Changsun was put down from his lap by Changsun Sheng.
Wu Gu suddenly spoke.
When Changsun Wuji and Changsun Sheng heard this, their bodies trembled at the same time. They both looked at Changsun Wugou. Changsun Sheng gave a bitter smile and said: "Madam, you take Guanyin down first, and then order us to hold a banquet for Wang Junlin to welcome the king.
.”
Mrs. Gao knew that the father and son had extremely important things to talk about, so she left the study with her eldest grandson Wugou.
"Father, is this really what His Majesty secretly ordered others to do?" Changsun Wuji whispered with some indignation.
Changsun Sheng's face changed slightly. He turned his head and glanced at a servant who was building in the garden outside the study. After making sure that the servant could not hear the conversation in the study, he whispered: "Wuji must remember that in the future, all matters involving your majesty will be ignored."
Don't talk about it lightly, and don't talk to anyone who is not very trustworthy, lest you risk death."
Changsun Wuji looked solemn, saluted respectfully, and said: "My father taught me, children should remember it."
Having said this, Changsun Wuji hesitated for a moment, then continued in a low voice: "Father, as far as my child knows, all the emperors in the past dynasties were prone to suspicion of their ministers. However, although your majesty is tolerant, he is also very suspicious of the family members."
There is so much suspicion and suspicion, why is this?"
Changsun Sheng sighed and said with a slightly complicated expression: "Your Majesty got the throne improperly. He took the throne from his son-in-law, so he is a bit pessimistic and always suspects that other wealthy families have the same intention. Fortunately, your Majesty is wise and powerful.
If there is no real evidence, he will never take action against any noble family. He is just trying to weaken the strength of each noble family. But today, one of the princes and Prince Yin is too murderous, and the other is narrow-minded... Alas! If His Majesty cannot solve the problem of the noble families in his lifetime.
After His Majesty passed away, he handed over the country to the Emperor. If Yang Guang were to take charge of the world, he would probably force the nobles to take desperate measures, but Prince Yin would probably make the emperor weak and his ministers strong, so he really answered your Majesty's concerns."
Changsun Wuji looked grave and said: "Junlin is a lonely man with no family members behind him, but he has a reputation that is unparalleled in the world, and he has outstanding military exploits that are comparable to those of the nine elders of the Sui Dynasty. Therefore, Your Majesty,
Only then did Jun Lin have to be summoned to the capital city, where he would use it as a sharp sword and wield it at the noble families, weakening the strength of the noble families."
Changsun Sheng sighed, nodded appreciatively, and said, "Wuji, it's great that you can see this, but don't be too confident in everything."
After a slight hesitation, he continued: "However, the conflict between Jun Lin and Yang Rong and the other five juniors may not have been arranged by His Majesty. Of course, Your Majesty will definitely be happy to see such a thing happen."
…
…
It was almost evening, and it was obviously inappropriate to go to see the emperor at this time. Wang Junlin was wondering whether to visit Changsun Sheng overnight or go there tomorrow. Unexpectedly, Changsun Wuji had already taken the initiative to come to the door outside Wufu Teahouse.
"Brother Wang, please go to our house with me now. My father has already set up a wedding banquet for you." As soon as they met, Changsun Wuji casually held his hand and said with a smile.
Wang Junlin smiled and stepped forward, patted Changsun Wuji on the shoulder, and said: "Your Changsun family is well-informed. I just arrived in the capital, and less than half an hour later, you came to my door."
Changsun Wuji said with a smile: "To be fair to Brother Wang, I have already told the brothers at the city gate that as soon as you enter the city, you will inform our house."
Wang Junlin said: "Wuji, wait a moment, I will change my clothes and follow you."
"Brother Wang, don't be anxious. I'm waiting here... Hey! This little guy is actually a lynx." As he spoke, Changsun Wuji knelt down with curiosity on his face to see the little lynx.
At that time, I followed Chang Sun Sheng on his mission to the Western Turks. I had seen lynxes hunting yellow sheep on the road. I knew that lynxes are as ferocious beasts in the northwest as tigers and leopards. Wang Junlin was able to raise such ferocious beasts, even cubs. This is
Things like this are also extremely rare and rare.
Wang Junlin was quite happy that Changsun Sheng could send Changsun Wuji to invite him to the banquet at the first time.
In the history of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, both Changsun Sheng and Changsun Wuji were definitely indispensable figures.
Yang Jian commented: "Chang Sun Sheng's martial arts skills are outstanding, suitable for others to talk about, and he has many unique strategies. The famous generals in the future are not like this son!"
In fact, in the battle against the Turks during the Kaihuang period, Changsun Sheng repeatedly performed extraordinary feats.
The idiom of later generations, "killing two birds with one stone", also comes from Changsun Sheng. But what makes Changsun Sheng known to more people in later generations is his children Changsun Wuji and Changsun Wugao. The former is a famous person, and the latter is a virtuous person.
back.
After changing clothes, Wang Junlin called Yu Zimo to introduce him to Changsun Wuji. He originally wanted to take Yu Zimo with him, but Yu Juluo had made an explanation and asked Yu Zimo to do it as soon as he arrived in the capital.
Go to see Yu Chengqing. Yu Chengqing is the second son of Yu Juluo. He serves in the Ministry of War in Kyoto, but he is only a deputy lieutenant of Zhaowu, the sixth rank, two ranks lower than Captain Guoyi, the fifth rank of Wang Junlin.
When Wang Junlin was at Yu Juluo's house in Jincheng, he vaguely heard that Yu Chengqing had done something that made Yu Juluo very unhappy. However, Yu Julu didn't tell him about it, and after all, it was the Yu family's.
It is not convenient for Wang Junlin to ask about his family affairs.
So after Wang Junlin left with Changsun Wuji with the gifts, Yu Zimo took Zhan Peng, two guards and a guy from Wufu Teahouse who led the way and left. Zhan Peng was specially asked to follow Yu Zimo because of this kid
He has a simple mind, but he is also very murderous, and he is worried that something will happen.
Everyone in the capital knows that Changsun Sheng never accepts gifts, but this does not mean that Wang Junlin can go empty-handed. The saying "It is not strange to give gifts to many people" is actually very reasonable. Of course, you have to give something as a gift.
After some thought, Zhang Sun Sheng would definitely not be able to see anything yellow or white.
Changsun Sheng is recognized as the best archer in the Sui Dynasty. He has a powerful five-stone bow and thirteen arrows. So far, no one except Changsun Sheng has been able to learn this unique skill. Therefore, Wang Junlin asked Kang Baobao to find a way to collect it.
A bowstring made from a centuries-old fish bladder from Qinghai Lake.
…
…
After the dinner, everyone else in Changsun's house dispersed, leaving only Wang Junlin, Changsun Sheng and Changsun Wuji.
After a confidential conversation, Wang Junlin said goodbye and left with a calm expression, but deep in his eyes was a look of solemnity and murderous intent.
After being reminded by the eldest princess Yang Lihua, he already vaguely knew the Sui Emperor's intention of calling him to the capital. Although he was unwilling to do so, he could not do it. However, he did not expect that as soon as he entered the city gate, he would have a conflict with the five hegemons of the capital.
To express hatred, you must know that these five noble sons are not worth mentioning in Wang Junlin's eyes, but the five aristocratic families represented by these five people are huge.
Yang Rong's grandfather was Yang Su, the Duke of Yue. He once commanded an army of 200,000 people as a land and water marshal, and single-handedly destroyed the Chen Dynasty. Now he is worshiped as Minister Zuopushe, and his official position in the court is second only to Prime Minister Gao Jiong.
Behind He Ruojin is the He Ruo family. His grandfather was He Ruobi, one of the nine elders of the Shangzhu Kingdom in the Sui Dynasty. He was also ranked among the top ten generals. He is now the Great General You Wuhou.
Yu Wen Chengji's grandfather was Yu Wenshu, the general of the Right Tun Guard, and Mai Zizhong's father was Mai Tiezhang, the general of the Left Tun Guard.
Zheng Wenyi's father, Zheng Yuanshou, was General Yitong, with a lower official position than the previous ones. However, the Zheng family was a prominent family in the north. Since the Northern Wei Dynasty, it had been closely related to the Cui family of Boling, the Li family of Longxi, the Li family of Zhaojun, and the Fan Yang family.
The Lu family, the Cui family in Qinghe, and the Wang family in Taiyuan are collectively known as the Five Surnames and Seven Families.
In short, although Wang Junlin will not become enemies with the five major forces because of a conflict with the juniors of these five families, there is a gap after all. Of course, this premise is that there is no follow-up to this matter, but how is this possible? Those five
Who among the younger generation is not an arrogant master? Even if he knows his true identity, he will never give up.
"According to what Chang Sun Sheng said, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty would not use this method to bring himself into conflict with these five guys before meeting him in person. But if Yang Jian hadn't done it, the only one would have been Changping Prince's Palace." Wang Junlin said.
Faced with murderous intent, Emperor Sui wanted to use himself as a sharp sword. He was unable to change this matter for a while, but doing things for the emperor would have equal benefits. But if it was designed by the Changping Palace, his king Junlin would be alone.
Even though we are weak, we still have to find a way to make the Changping Palace pay the price.
Wang Junlin walked out of Changsun's house full of thoughts. Changsun Sheng originally wanted him to stay overnight, but Wang Junlin was worried that the conflict at the city gate in the afternoon might be followed up, and he was also worried that Yu Zimo would cause trouble, so he refused the kindness of Changsun and his son.
Changsun Sheng was an elder and had a much higher official position than Wang Junlin. He was able to host a banquet for Wang Junlin in person, but he was already a bit out of character. He would not see Wang Junlin out in person. Therefore, Changsun Wuji saw Wang Junlin off.
Changsun Sheng stood on the corridor outside the study door, watching Wang Junlin's back disappear from the corner door, and said: "Madam, you have always had a unique vision, what do you think of this boy?"
A beautiful middle-aged woman walked out from one end of the corridor. Yingying walked to Changsun Sheng and said: "If this son is just a general, even if he possesses poisonous skills, it is nothing. At most, he is just another Yu Juluo.
But today I saw that his conversation was extraordinary, he was obviously good at both civil and military affairs, and he was steady and decisive in his work, so I thought this son was quite extraordinary."
