Chapter 19 In the seventh quarter, Wei Yang, Pang Juan, and Pang Juan made clever plans

There is a long street running east-west to the south of Tianjie, which is the area where the official residences of Wei State are concentrated.There are two particularly prominent mansions here, one is the prime minister's mansion, and the other is the general's mansion.The prime minister's uncle Cuo is dead.According to the regulations of the State of Wei: after the death of the prime minister who founded the mansion, his family members should move out of the prime minister's mansion and move to a pure residence rewarded by the monarch.Although the current successor prime minister has not been determined, the officialdom is still optimistic about the appointment of General Pang Juan as prime minister, thinking that he may become the master of these two prominent mansions at the same time.Anyi's officialdom has always been famous for its agility, so they naturally found their own reasons to ask the general for advice.At this moment, which was almost midnight, there were still tall cars and horses streaming in and out in front of the General's Mansion.General Pang Juan has also recently changed his habit of being negligent in socializing. He sincerely gives advice to anyone who visits and asks for advice, and he also readily accepts those who are willing to be students.This kind of prosperity and bustle is in contrast to the quiet and deserted Prime Minister's Mansion a hundred steps away. On this beautiful and luxurious long street, it actually shows a period of vicissitudes of life.

Ten iron armored knights escorted a shiny chariot and drove towards it.Wei Yang in the car felt uncomfortable.Corporal Lixian?Send a commander in command.Are you protecting your guests?It was more like preventing him from escaping.As soon as Wei Yang came out of the cave, Xiangchun saw the chariot armored soldiers, and guessed where he was going.So he got into the car safely, and didn't ask why he didn't enter the prime minister's mansion when he mentioned it, and let the car drive up to the general's mansion.The car didn't stop when we arrived at the Chemachang, and we drove directly into the west side gate and entered the quiet Kuayuan.The commander got out of the car in front of the moon gate of Kuayuan, cupped his hands to Wei Yang and said, "Here we are, sir, please get out of the car." , the military official stepped back solemnly, and the two entered the quiet courtyard.

A man in a red cloak stood under the pillars of the hallway in the courtyard, and the commander reported loudly: "Report to your son, Wei Yang, the middle-class son, will bring you here." Greeted with a smile: "How flamboyant is Wei Yang? He went to Dongxiangchun for entertainment, wonderful!" Wei Yang said with a indifferent smile: "Young master, the royal family and nobles, don't you have a room to entertain guests?" Young master Yang burst into laughter again, " You are always so serious. Come, come, and you will know the reason when you go in." He said, holding Wei Yang's hand and walking into the candlelit main room.

In the main room is an exquisite small hall, surrounded by bamboo slips, the sword stand is neutral, and the two long tables have already placed Dingjue wine and meat, waiting for empty seats.Young Master Ang smiled kindly: "Wei Yang, please take a seat." Wei Yang sat in the guest seat to the south without saying a word.Young Master Ang took the honorary seat in the north, raised his honor and said with a smile: "It's been a long time since we met, and I miss you all the time. Come, let's be a noble first." Wei Yang raised his honor with an indifferent smile, and the two drank in one gulp.Young Master Ang sighed with emotion: "Wei Yang, I have known you since you first came to Anyi. It has been five years. Although Wei Ang is a royal nobleman, he has not regarded you as a petty official. You are my good friend and good friend. , my military advisor. Whenever I have difficulties, you can always give me a good plan. Otherwise, I would have been swallowed alive... Come on, do it again!"

Wei Yang said with a smile: "Wei Yang is not proud of power schemes and schemes. What's the point of talking about playing games?" "Okay! Have fun. However, I still want to repay the favor." Wei Yang burst out laughing, but didn't pick up the topic.Young Master Ang continued to talk excitedly, "In the past, I also recommended you to be a housekeeper next to the King of Wei. How expensive are you? But you just didn't go, and spent five years in the study with your old uncle. This is called a celebrity." Do you join the WTO? Does the old man think highly of you? Situ doesn’t even give you any, and in the end he prevaricates and recommends you to be the prime minister! Isn’t this a dream? How can a prime minister be easy to do? This is clearly a joke! He said he would kill you How sinister is this old uncle! If it weren’t for King Wei’s wisdom and understanding, wouldn’t you be in a catastrophe? At the end of the day, you still guard the tomb for him. Is there any justice in the world?”

Young Master Ang spoke impassionedly.However, Wei Yang's complexion gradually became gloomy, and he drank three consecutive drinks for a while, trying his best to suppress the roiling fire of anger in his chest.What can he say to a person like Gongzi Ang?At this time, this place, this person, I should not defend myself. The only thing I have to do is to be patient, to be patient.Young Master Ang had a different feeling, he sympathized with Wei Yang very much, and understood Wei Yang's mood very much - after his advice, Wei Yang came to his senses, naturally he felt uncomfortable.He drank three honors with Wei Yang and sighed: "Wei Yang, don't be sad. There is no unparalleled road in the sky. It is a good thing to invite you today. General Pang Juan listened to me. Your talent is very important, and I want to entrust you to be his military commander, with the same rank as a doctor, but compared to a bastard, it is heaven and earth! How is it? Times are turning around, right?" He spoke with great interest, overflowing with gratitude The pleasure of fulfilling one's wish.

"Military Sima, the same rank as a doctor in the middle school, he is not young." Wei Yang smiled faintly. "There are three houses, three-foot carts, ten armored soldiers, and an annual salary of three thousand dendrobium." "It's leisurely and beautiful. It's full of people. I want to be comfortable, Dr. Zhong. Right?" Young Master Ang laughed loudly and said, "Brother Yang, you've got it right. Besides, it would be nice for you to go to the General's Mansion." When he spoke the second half of the sentence, he lowered his voice and smiled mysteriously.

Wei Yang shook his head and said: "Young master talks about it, Wei Yang doesn't know." "You, you, the study really spoiled you? With you here, I know what's going on here. Don't worry, with me here, no one will dare to touch you." For a split second, Wei Yang's piercing eyes fixed on Young Master An, but disappeared suddenly, with an indifferent smile on his face, "Young Master is hardworking, Wei Yang is very grateful. It's just that Wei Yang has no chance to be an official. What can I do?" "But why?" came a thick voice from outside the hall, and then walked into a man in a red shirt, sweeping the floor, long hair and shawl, who looked casual and dignified. It was the General Pang Juan.

Young Master Ang hurriedly said: "Wei Yang, the general has arrived, and you still don't see the ceremony?" Wei Yang got up from the table and bowed in a salute, "Wei Yang, the concubine, see the general." "Take a seat." Pang Juan sat in front of the horizontal long table, stroked his long beard and smiled leisurely: "Wei Yang, my bookkeeper said that you are erudite and memorized, and you know all the six classics. The young master is very grateful to you." Appreciation. I am busy with military affairs, I did not come to the door to seek talents in person, I have offended you, please forgive me."

Wei Yang said humbly: "You are a mere official, how dare you take care of the general?" "Wei Yang, Military Affairs Sima is an important position in military planning, why do you say that you have no chance to be an official?" "General, the uncle and the prime minister are newly mourned, and I am guarding his tomb for him. It is not suitable for me to be an official." Young Master Ang said anxiously: "It's not relative, it's not even an authentic student, why do you need to guard the tomb for him?" "My son's words are wrong. The uncle and the prime minister taught me for five years and treated me well. Wei Yang should repay him with the courtesy of a teacher. My Confucianism has always regarded filial piety as the most important gift. Besides, I guard the mausoleum for the king of Wei. How dare you Give up halfway?" It really has the seriousness and stubbornness of Confucianism.

Young Master Ang said anxiously: "What's the problem? I'll tell the king of Wei the truth, and I'll just excuse the guarding of the mausoleum." Pang Juan has been watching Wei Yang quietly, waved his hand to Young Master Ang, and turned his head and said, "Who doesn't want to make meritorious deeds today? Doesn't Wei Yang want to fight against the nations with me, to rule the world, and to go down in history?" "After three years of ceremony, Wei Yang will serve in the army." Wei Yang replied respectfully, cupping his hands. Suddenly, Pang Juan laughed loudly, "Could it be that Wei Yang is pretentious and thinks the official is insignificant?" "Little bastard, Wei Yang has been in office for five years, and the general will naturally know about it." "Could it be that you want to apply for a job in another country?" "If you go to another country, why wait for today?" Young Master Ang's face was full of displeasure, and he sighed, "General, let him take his time to study it." Pang Juan smiled magnanimously and said: "Confucian scholars are very steadfast. Wei Yang is a filial piety, and his name is just and obedient. Wei Yang, if you can come to serve in our army after the expiration of the guarding of the mausoleum, even if the general didn't read it." It's your fault." Wei Yang bowed deeply and said, "Thank you, General, for your success." Pang Juan clapped his hands and walked into the proud commander.Pang Juan sternly ordered: "Wei Yang is already the Sima of our military affairs, and he will take up his post after the period of guarding the mausoleum expires. You will bring a hundred soldiers to guard Sima, and there will be no mistakes!" "The last general obeys orders!" The commander-in-chief answered with high spirits. The young master clapped his palms and laughed loudly: "The general is very clever in seeking talents. I think you, Wei Yang, dare not be an official?" Wei Yang pondered for a while, and said: "In this case, General, will you give me a salary in advance?" Pang Juan felt relieved for a moment—when a person cares about official salary, it means that there is no threat—so he said happily: "Wei Yang's request is reasonable, and Sima's official salary, carriages, and mansion will all be accepted from the next year." release." Wei Yang bowed in trepidation, "Thank you, General, for your kindness." "Ahahahahahaha..." Young Master Ang burst out laughing, "You Wei Yang, you stand at the front and respect at the back, and you only serve the general." Wei Yang smiled with a bit of shame and said: "Master, forgive me, Wei Yang also respects you." Pang Juan and Young Master Ang laughed at the same time. In the middle of the night, Commander Ang Ang "escorted" Wei Yang to the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion.Wei Yang declined the carriages and horses entering the mansion, and got off the car in front of the dark and deserted prime minister's mansion.Watching the car go away, he stood in the shade of a tree in a daze, and he let out a heavy sigh. Suddenly, there was a soft laugh behind him. Surprised, Wei Yang turned around quickly, only to see that handsome civilian man standing in front of him with a smile.Wei Yang said angrily, "Why are you not in good shape? It's like a wandering spirit in the middle of the night." But the commoner laughed and said, "Why didn't you ask where I was when you left?" Wei Yang said with a straight face: "You don't Say, let me ask you where you came from?" The commoner said: "Oh, but I know that Wei Yang, a concubine, became an official and became a military commander, and he will have an official salary next year." Wei Yang was so surprised that he couldn't answer for a while. , Thinking awe-inspiringly: "Tell me the truth, who are you?" The commoner smiled, "No matter who I am, I won't harm you in the slightest. I'm here to remind you of one thing." "Remind me what? Tell me." "It's fierce, are celebrities like this?" Wei Yang was a little embarrassed by what he said, and when he thought about it, his voice was stern for no reason, and he couldn't help laughing: "Okay, I apologize to my brother. Excuse me, what do you want to remind me about?" "Hmph, like an old Confucian, might as well be fierce." Wei Yang couldn't help laughing loudly, "Oh, you little brother, you're really hard to deal with. Talk about it, don't pout your lips." The civilian scholar looked at Wei Yang, his face was as red as a cloth.Wei Yang patted him on the shoulder kindly, "Don't be nervous. Is there any bad news?" The commoner shook his body slightly, and immediately calmed down again, "Brother, the big businessman who is playing chess with you is Qin State secret envoy." When Wei Yang heard this, he was too surprised to speak.Is it Qin again?All sorts of coincidences about Dong Xiangchun flashed through his mind in an instant—the old man said Qin, played chess with "Qin", and the opponent was Qin's secret envoy—could it be God's will?Suddenly, a burst of vigilance passed through my heart, and I felt a sense of coolness and comfort.Wei Yang heaved a sigh of relief. In any case, he could at least clearly conclude that at least the secret envoy of the State of Qin had no ill intentions towards him, and it would not be a bad thing.Suddenly, he felt cordial to this commoner who he had known for a short time, put his hands on his shoulders and smiled with relief: "I don't ask who you are, thank you very much... Hey, why are you shaking? Is the cold wind blowing?" After speaking, Wei Yang took off his long gown and put it on the body of the commoner scholar. The commoner gasped slightly, "It doesn't matter if you get a little bit of wind and cold. Don't go to Dongxiangchun again, brother. I'll sue you for a big rumor." "Oh, you won't let me go again? Okay, I won't go. Hey, didn't you do it in Dongxiangchun?" The commoner man shook his head and smiled, "You should have gone back to the cemetery, but you are concerned about the lack of news. How about solving your problem?" Wei Yang didn't expect that the young man he met was so smart, he could think of his situation, he couldn't help feeling relieved, and sighed softly, "Yes, I can't hang around under the general's nose all the time, I should leave , I have to think hard, I have to think through many things." The commoner man cupped his hands and said with a smile, "I'm leaving. I'll give you the gown." Wei Yang smiled and said, "The night is as cold as water, how can I get it?" The commoner man let out that mischievous smile again, "Brother, you wear an official uniform, how will you go out tomorrow?" Wei Yang couldn't help laughing when he told the truth, "You ghost spirit! Hey, I don't have a car, so I can't see you off. Why don't you go to my hut for a night of drinking and talking?" The civilian scholar's bright eyes flickered, and he said with a smile: "Dong Xiangchun is not far away. I'm leaving." After speaking, he left in a hurry.
