Do you know: I have a different surname: Wang, uncle Minglan

Wei Yuan was not familiar with the situation in Zhongqin's Mansion.

All they know is that they are getting further and further away from the center of power.

It is even reduced to the point where you have to beg for help in order to find a way out for your descendants.

After the so-called family dinner.

Wei Yuan and Wei Shuyi were chatting.

Ming Lan, who came to serve tea to the two of them, heard them discussing things about 'Qi Heng' again, so she hid aside and listened.

Wei Shu asked thoughtfully: "Why do you say that the young master is not a good match for Minglan?"

She believed that Wei Yuan knew more about those noble families than she did.

Therefore, I want to hear more from Wei Yuan.

Wei Yuan said matter-of-factly: "Sister, you have a royal decree now, and I am Minglan's biological uncle, Minglan's future aunt, and the only daughter of the Duke's family."

"To put it bluntly, with Minglan's current status, it is more than enough to surpass the number of officials and children in the capital."

"But is Qi Heng the one who can give everything for Minglan? The so-called parents' beloved son has far-reaching plans."

"Although I am only Minglan's uncle, I also hope that the person Minglan will marry in the future will be someone who can walk firmly with Minglan and take care of her regardless of all dangers."

"You and I, my sister and brother, will not be able to take care of her for the rest of her life."

When Wei Shuyi heard this, how could he still not understand?

Wei Yuan was worried that Qi Heng only had a temporary affection for Minglan, or that he was not the one who could give everything for Minglan.

only

"The love between men and women cannot last forever or be unswerving. Finding a good family is already a blessing for a daughter's family."

Wei Shuyi sighed.

Wei Yuan was silent for a moment and said bluntly: "Sister, how proud and arrogant were you before? But for our Wei family, you have wronged yourself."

"I will miss your kindness all my life. Therefore, I will protect the future of Minglan and Mu Geer. Please rest assured, sister."

Wei Shu said thoughtfully: "Brother, I came to the Sheng family willingly. I owe you nothing. Please don't say such words again in the future."

Wei Yuan nodded, "As an uncle, I won't interfere too much in Minglan's marriage. When she is two years older, if she really chooses someone, I will give her full support."

In other words, Wei Yuan chose to let nature take its course when it came to Minglan's wedding.

Even if Minglan's marriage is unfortunate, Wei Yuan can make her happy. He has the power now.

Regardless of Qi Heng's family background or Gu Tingye's family background, in Wei Yuan's eyes, they are all the same.

With him here, Qi Heng's parents would never underestimate Minglan.

With him around, Gu Tingye's stepmother, Xiao Qin, would never dare to act like a monster.

Because Minglan is not the Minglan who has nothing.

He and Zhang Guifen would make Minglan a person whom all the powerful children of the capital would fawn over.

As for the future, it’s just a matter of fate.

When Minglan heard this, she suddenly understood why her uncle would admit that Qi Heng was definitely not a good match for her.

It turned out that I was worried.

She felt warm in her heart, knowing that her uncle felt sorry for her, so he said that.

"Uncle, I will listen to you tomorrow. In the past few years, I will not think about any major marriage matters for the time being."

"You are Ming'er's uncle, and Ming'er will listen to what you say."

Minglan walked into the pavilion where the siblings were chatting and poured them a cup of tea.

Wei Yuan said happily: "You are still young. In two years, you will have your own opinion. Your mother and I will never stop you from deciding who you like."

Minglan nodded.

Later, Wei Yuan told Wei Shuyi about the British Duke adopting her as his adopted daughter.

"At the beginning of next month, the teacher has chosen a date. Someone will be sent to notify my sister within these few days."

Wei Shuyi asked: "Is it your intention that the Duke and his wife plan to adopt me as their adopted daughter?"

Wei Yuan shook his head and said: "This is a misunderstanding, little brother. I only found out about this plan of my master and my wife in recent days. Besides, even if I have extraordinary abilities, I can't influence my master and my wife's thoughts."

Wei Shu sighed: "In any case, the Duke and his wife decided to accept me as their adopted daughter because of your face."

"Brother, you have done so much for my sister, and you even asked for a title for me."

"I know that this must be paid for with your military merits. Your merits are all achieved by fighting with swords and guns on the battlefield."

"Now, for my sister, I..."

She has buried these things in her heart for a long time.

I have always wanted to find an opportunity to confess to Wei Yuan.

"If it weren't for you and my second sister, where would my little brother be today?"

"Don't say anything you say to others."

Wei Yuan said.

Hearing this, Wei Shuyi's expression suddenly changed and he said seriously:

"Brother, I promise, your second sister and I are already married. In the future, no matter what credit you get, it will all belong to you."

"Don't let your two sisters get you into trouble. Otherwise, your second sister and I will have no face to face the ancestors of the Wei family."

"The Wei family is the only one like you, so you have to shoulder the responsibility of revitalizing the family."

Wei Yuan nodded firmly, "Eldest sister, please rest assured that I will devote my whole life to making the Wei family prosperous."

After hearing this, Wei Shuyi was satisfied.

Minglan, who was on the side, heard that the two siblings were so serious while chatting all day long, so she smiled and said:

"Mom, my uncle is a great hero now and will definitely be able to revive the Wei family."

"Uncle, everything is fine with my mother and I. You should think more about yourself in the future and don't always think that our mother and I will be wronged."

Minglan has always been grateful to Wei Yuan.

She was never good at expressing this gratitude and kept it deep in her heart.

But one day, when Wei Yuan needs something from her, she will stand up without hesitation, even if there is a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​fire in front of her.

When Wei Yuan heard what Minglan said, he laughed twice and said, "Our girl Ming has grown up, and she will comfort your mother and uncle."

Minglan stood behind Wei Yuan and squeezed his shoulders.

"There is an old saying that goes, mother's mother is the uncle."

"In Ming'er's heart, the two most important people in this world are her mother and uncle."

Wei Yuan joked: "Where is your aunt?"

Minglan said: "My aunt is my second mother."

As soon as these words came out, Wei Shuyi and Wei Yuan both laughed.

——

The next day.

Wei Yuan went to the Prime Minister's Mansion and went to Han Zhang for an invitation.

They said it was a banquet, but when they arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, they saw only Han Zhang.

Only then did Wei Yuan understand that the Grand Prime Minister had something to explain!

The main hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Wei Yuan sat on one side.

Han Zhang said: "Uncle Zhongyong, he is in charge of the guard army and is in charge of the forbidden cavalry. He is so majestic."

Wei Yuan smiled bitterly and said: "My lord, you have defeated me. Even if I am powerful, I am not as good as you."

Han Zhang smiled and asked, "Do you know why I invited you here today?"

Wei Yuan said seriously: "Please make it public, Prime Minister Han."

Han Zhang nodded, "What do you think of the current civil-military struggle between the DPRK and China?"

Wei Yuan's heart tightened, a civil-military dispute?

Don’t you just feel unhappy that my teacher has become the Prime Minister?

At that time, Di Qing also served as Privy Councilor.

After Wen Zhenggong's death, Han Zhang began to target Di Qing.

I want to pull him down from his position as prime minister.

Now, Wei Yuan had to respond to Han Zhang's question,

"Juniors have heard of an allusion. During the Warring States Period, Lin Xiangru, the top minister of the State of Zhao, was at odds with the general Lian Po because Lin Xiangru's status was higher than that of Lian Po."

"Lian Po was dissatisfied and often insulted and provoked Lin Xiangru, but the minister of Zhao tolerated everything, which finally made Lian Po take the blame."

"Lin Xiangru said to Lian Po that only by harmonizing the generals can the world be at peace."

It was impossible for Han Zhang not to know this allusion. He nodded with a smile, ordered people to watch the tea, and asked again:

"What if the generals are at odds with each other? I heard that you were once a scholar."

The implication was that Wei Yuan was asked to take sides.

Everyone knows that Wei Yuan's teacher is Zhang Fu, and Wei Yuan will also become Zhang Fu's son-in-law.

Naturally, he wanted to be on Zhang Fu's side.

But why does Han Zhang still ask?

He just wanted to know Wei Yuan's attitude toward civil servants and generals.

This attitude not only means taking sides, but also a view on the current situation in the court.

Wei Yuan said: "Please forgive me for not knowing why the generals are at odds with each other."

"As a prime minister, you are responsible for the livelihood of all people in the world. My teacher, as a prime minister, is responsible for the soldiers and horses of the world."

"In the final analysis, if we are all responsible for the people and each performs his or her duties, how can the world be uneasy? How can there be any contradiction?"

"Wen Zhenggong once said that before worrying about the world, as long as it is for the sake of the world of Zhou Dynasty, a little disagreement is not necessarily a bad thing."

Han Zhang asked again: "So you don't want to see military generals governing the country happen?"

I never said that. Wei Yuan responded again: "I don't want to see a situation where civilian officials influence military and state affairs."

Han Zhang nodded, "General Wei's tea is a little cold. Someone, come and make some rock tea for General Wei that I just got."

After a pause, Han Zhang looked at Wei Yuan and said with a smile: "I understand what you are thinking."

"No matter what, the world cannot be governed by warriors."

As for who Minglan will be with in the future, whether it will be Qi Heng or Gu Tingye, it depends on the situation. If you have any opinions, you can tell me and I will take it as a reference.
