Li Yuanying had never traveled far by himself.
But I heard that Wei Shu was not happy, and Li Yuanying was not happy either. The Wei family father and son didn't send many letters throughout the year, and he never heard Wei Shu mention them, so why did he take Wei Shu away as soon as he came back.
It would be fine if Wei Shu was willing to go with them, but Wei Shu obviously didn't want to.
Thinking of Wei Shu's letter saying that they might never see each other again, Li Yuanying became so angry that he had to chase him back. His little friend of Li Yuanying's can't be wronged like this, even if the other party is her father and brother! His imperial brother is still the emperor, so what should he do anyway!
Li Yuanying hurried all the way, and a person called Shanqi ran ahead and asked if the station on the road had received the Wei family and his party. Finally, two days later, he learned from a station that Wei's father had eaten something in the station and set off. Not long to go.
With the news of Wei Shu, Li Yuanying immediately got on his horse and led his men to chase after him.
Many servants and helpers in the station stopped what they were doing, looked curiously at the direction Li Yuanying was going away, and talked a lot: "Who are they?" "It looks like a child from an ordinary family!" "Of course!" , who in an ordinary family can support so many people with knives?"
The steward came out after hearing the news, waved his hand to drive away the group of guys who gathered together, and scolded: "What are you looking at? Can you tell me about the nobleman? Be careful that the nobleman gouges out your eyes!"
Everyone dispersed.
Li Yuanying quickly caught up with the carriage of the Wei family.
Compared with his mighty group of people, Wei's father's carriage looked much shabby, and there was not even a single extra helper except the driver.
Hearing the rapid sound of horseshoes coming from behind, the experienced driver shook his hand and was about to dodge aside, but was surrounded by strong horses, so startled that the docile old horse he was driving hesitated and dared not go any further. verb: move.
Soon, Li Yuanying rode a head-short horse across in front of the carriage, staring fixedly at the closed curtain.
Father Wei in the car sensed that something was wrong, signaled his wife and children to be safe and calm, raised his hand and raised the car curtain to look forward. After seeing the person coming, Wei's father was a little surprised. This young man was about eleven or twelve years old, but his posture on the horse seemed to have an aura that is rare for ordinary people.
Wei Shu looked up and was stunned for a moment, thinking it was her eyesight. After confirming that it was indeed Li Yuanying who came, Wei Shu got up and moved to the front, and asked Li Yuanying, "Your Highness, why are you here?"
When Li Yuanying saw Wei Shu, he suppressed his hostility just now, returned to his usual easy-going appearance, easily got off his horse, walked to the carriage and said, "You wrote in your letter that we will never see each other again, of course I want to come."
Wei Shu had already persuaded herself not to feel sad, but when Li Yuanying said this, her eyes suddenly became hot again. How many people in this world will chase after you because of a sentence in the letter
Father Wei was a little annoyed when he saw that the two children didn't take him seriously and talked on their own. Looking at Li Yuanying's gesture of having people surround the carriage, Wei's father sneered and said, "Is King Teng trying to hold the court order official hostage?"
Only then did Li Yuanying turn his attention to Father Wei.
Wei's father looks a bit like Wei Zheng, but Wei Zheng looks unreasonable, but in fact he knows how to adapt and judge the situation better than anyone else; I understand why Wei Zheng was named Zheng Guogong.
Li Yuanying said strangely: "I'm not interested in court officials. Why do you want to hold court officials hostage? I'm here to find my sister."
Father Wei's cheeks trembled, he was so angry that he didn't know what to say.
Wei Ying stepped forward to block Wei Shu from behind, and said angrily: "Sister Shu, who is your sister? Who allowed you to be called so close? Girls' boudoir names, are you an outsider? ?”
Li Yuanying said confidently: "Isn't the name just for people to call? I still hate that sister Shu keeps calling me Your Highness. What a good name." He snorted, raised his chin and asked Wei Ying, "Who are you? Huh? Sister Shu and I have known each other for so long and haven’t seen you, nor have you written a letter to Sister Shu, and I don’t know where it came from!”
Wei Ying was so angry that he wanted to tear him alive: "I am her brother!"
Father Wei finally regained his voice: "Since His Highness has no intention of holding our family hostage, let's let everyone disperse!"
Li Yuanying played a rogue: "That can't be done, I haven't talked to sister Shu properly yet."
Father Wei said, "What do you want to say?!"
Li Yuanying poked his head into the car, trying to look past the Wei family father and son to see Wei Shu, but Wei's father and Wei Ying blocked Wei Shu tightly. This father and son are really small minded! Li Yuanying couldn't play tricks, so he could only start to reason with Wei's father: "Dare to ask Wei Changshi, is it Zheng Guogong, or you, Changshi?"
Wei's father frowned and replied, "Of course it's Duke Zheng."
Li Yuanying asked again: "Will you be the father or the son?"
Father Wei said, "Of course it's the father."
Li Yuanying said: "That's it." He lied without changing his expression, straightened his back and looked directly at Wei's father and Wei Ying, "I was called by Wei Shizhong, and he wanted me to ask my sister Shu a few questions. What to do is entirely up to Sister Shu. Now I have to talk to Sister Shu according to Wei Shizhong's wishes, so hurry up and get out of the way!"
Father Wei didn't believe it: "How could father let you come?"
Li Yuanying spoke convincingly, not being half-distracted and guilty: "Why not? Wei Shizhong and I have studied the entire "Book of Rites", and we are considered to be half of Wei Shizhong's disciples. Wei Shizhong is over sixty years old. If you have something to convey, why can't you let me run errands?" This is called 'the disciple who has something to do is obedient to his labor'!" In order to prove that he learned "Book of Rites" from Wei Zheng, Li Yuanying brazenly boasted, "Wei Shizhong also said that I can learn things much faster than you! You are like me. At this age, you have to tell you a sentence three times before you can remember it! Don’t believe me? Just pick a passage from "Book of Rites" and see if I can learn it better than you!"
Li Yuanying acted too righteously, Father Wei was bluffed by him.
If Li Yuanying really came to help Wei Zheng spread the word, he really had no reason to stop him. After all, their parents have taken care of their daughter for so long. It would be wrong for him to take Wei Shu away regardless of his mother's objection. How could he go against Wei Zheng's intentions in public
Father Wei let go coldly: "You can convey it directly now."
Li Yuanying refused, pointing to Wei Fu who was blocking Wei Shu in front of the car door, and said: "You block sister Shu, give way, when you talk to someone, you must look into the other person's eyes to respect the other person."
Wei Fake turned around angrily, so that Li Yuanying could look at Wei Shu.
Li Yuanying asked: "Are you willing to go to Rendi with them?" He asked Wei Shu in a calm tone, "If you are willing, I asked someone to prepare a lot of things, and the next few carriages will follow immediately, and I will let them follow you Go to the place, write down the address, and we can continue to communicate when the time comes."
Wei Shu stared fixedly at Li Yuanying's serious eyes, unable to speak for a while.
Li Yuanying understood.
Wei Shu was really unwilling.
Looking at the attitudes of Father Wei and Wei Ying just now, it is clear that they and Wei Shu are definitely not in the same way, and Wei Shu will definitely not be happy if they go with them.
Li Yuanying said: "Then let me ask another question, are you willing to stay?"
Wei Shu couldn't answer either. Her father, brother and mother were all by her side. Why did she have to stay
Li Yuanying went straight on and said: "Your grandfather and grandmother are not too young. People will inevitably have problems when they get old. Your grandmother doesn't like to hire outsiders to come to the house. She likes to do everything by herself. There is no one close to her. It must be impossible. But you Your father and uncles have to serve the country, and your aunts are married, so it is impossible to stay with your grandparents for a long time. Therefore, although you are still young, you still have to do errands, cook, and call a doctor. If you can do it, are you willing to work hard to stay with your grandparents to take care of them, and to be filial to your grandparents instead of your parents?"
Wei Shu listened blankly.
Li Yuanying said: "What? Are you afraid of hard work?"
Wei Shu immediately said, "Don't be afraid!"
Li Yuanying said happily: "I knew you were filial, why would you be afraid of hard work?" He laughed, and showed two dimples to Mother Wei who was sitting in the car and looking at him, she looked cute and cute, "Auntie , Sorry for not being able to say hello to you just now."
Wei's mother felt that she had never seen a more pleasing and good-looking young man than this one. She said, "Shu'er grandfather really asked you to come?"
Li Yuanying said: "That's natural, otherwise how dare I come to stop people? Wei Changshi also said that he is the imperial court official. If I, a little prince, dare to hold the imperial court official hostage, I will definitely be scolded to death by the officials in the court." Li Yuanying said while the iron was hot, "Wei Shizhong doesn't have any children and grandchildren around, so it's really lonely. I don't think it's better than this. You and your wife can go to any place. I'll take the two young ones to Luoyang, and let them be with you later." Wei Shizhong will go back to Chang'an together."
If Li Yuanying wanted to take Wei Shu away alone, Father Wei would naturally not agree. But Li Yuanying said that he wanted to take Wei Ying back with him, and he said clearly about asking them to "be filial for their parents". Wei's father was ashamed that he couldn't stay with his parents to serve them. How could he refuse his father's request
Unknowingly, Father Wei's attitude softened. He and his wife looked at each other, wanting to ask her for her opinion.
Mother Wei made up her mind: "Since that's the case, Ying'er and Shu'er should stay."
Li Yuanying added fire to them: "Brother Wei staying in Chang'an is also very beneficial. I know a friend named Tang Sui, who is about the same age as Brother Wei this year. He went to Chang'an by himself to join his relatives, so he has to be admitted to the Imperial College. He is now in Guozijian is among the best, but you have worked hard!" Although Li Yuanying contributed a part of this effort (helping Tang Sui to say hello to Kong Yingda), Li Yuanying couldn't admit it. Li Yuanying said, "Although Brother Wei can wait for his succession, and he can become the Duke of the state without doing anything in the future. There is really nothing to worry about, but I think a man should learn more and learn more skills. Wei Changshi, do you think my words are right?"
Wei Ying blushed.
Of course Father Wei agreed with Li Yuanying's words, if he didn't agree, he wouldn't travel around to accumulate experience like he is now, and want to be a person who is useful to the country and the people. After hearing Li Yuanying's words, he changed his view of Li Yuanying a lot, nodded in agreement and said, "That's true."
Li Yuanying also nodded straightly: "Brother Wei, if you stay, you can also be admitted to the Imperial College to learn more. Those who can enter the Imperial College are the future pillars of the country. They come from all corners of the country, have different growth processes, and naturally have different insights. Getting to know more good friends like this can not only increase your knowledge, but also broaden your horizons. So I think it’s better for Brother Wei to stay together. Moreover, Brother Wei has to rejoice that Sister Shu is a younger sister or not a younger brother. If Sister Shu is Boy, you will definitely be admitted to the Imperial College, and maybe you can get a first name!"
Thinking of his daughter's intelligence far surpassing her peers, Wei's father agreed with Li Yuanying's words, and looked at Wei Ying more severely: "Take your younger sister and follow His Highness Prince Teng to meet your grandfather, and get ready to go to the Imperial Prison. Go read."
Until he was packed into the carriage sent by Li Yuanying by his parents, together with his luggage and his sister, Wei Ying still couldn't understand: why he not only failed to take his sister away, but also paid for himself? Why is the father's attitude towards Li Yuanying completely different from the beginning, but he has become so fierce towards his son
Li Yuanying successfully tricked his sister into his own carriage, and asked someone to attach a few carriage gifts to the back of Wei's small broken carriage. He held Wei's father's hand eagerly and said, "These are not valuable things. Some books, pens, inks, papers and inkstones, if sister Shu is in Chang’an, you can go to the library to read them, so you don’t have to take them back, you can take them anywhere for the local scholars to borrow.”
Father Wei couldn't refuse such a thing that was beneficial to culture and education, so he agreed with some shame, feeling that he had really wronged this good boy.
Rumors are harmful!
This child is so sensible and sensible, the arrogant attitude at the beginning may be due to misunderstandings between each other!
Li Yuanying did all the courtesy and stood there to see off the Wei family parents who had turned from a carriage into a small convoy. It wasn't until the small convoy had gone far enough that Li Yuanying handed over his pony to someone else to lead, and quickly got into the carriage where the Wei Shu brothers and sisters were.
Wei Ying said vigilantly: "Why did you come up?!"
Li Yuanying directly asked someone to drive the carriage back, ignoring Wei Ying's greetings, but complained to Wei Shu: "After riding the horse for two days, I was exhausted, but luckily I caught up."
Wei Shu looked at him with bright eyes: "Did grandfather really ask you to come?"
She felt that this was not something her grandfather would do.
Li Yuanying blinked, and said innocently: "I think Old Wei should think so."
Wei Ying suddenly understood that he was on a pirate ship! There is no request from his grandfather at all, this kid is completely lying to his father!
Wei Ying said: "Get someone to stop immediately, I'm going to expose you!"
Li Yuanying asked Wei Ying's wishes quite enthusiastically: "Brother Wei, do you want to go to Luoyang sitting by yourself, or do you want someone to knock you out and go to Luoyang lying down?"
Wei Ying: "..."
