Chapter 741: Teachers and Students Reunite
In later online novels, there are always a few sets of protagonist templates that have been passed down, such as the death of both parents, the fall of the family, and the break-up of someone else... For example, the side branches of a big family who were born in a big family were suppressed and bullied, relying on hard work and luck to fight back. During this period, the protagonist will inevitably have conflicts with his family...
It is really not inconsistent to put these protagonist templates on Wei Liang.
He was born into a branch of the Wei family in a big family. He was young and successful, elegant and even looked the best. He was smooth and smooth as an official. He was about to become a powerful senior official in the six ministries of the court in less than 40 years. More importantly, he would have a fierce conflict with his family this time. Isn’t this paving the way for his counterattack and slap in the face?
Anyway, no matter how others view their teacher's current situation, Li Ling recognized that this was the prelude to the protagonist's teacher's glory and bright appearance. Then, as a disciple, what he had to do next is to cooperate with the teacher and make this appearance perfect.
For this reason, Li Ling spent a lot of time familiarizing himself with what kind of family the Wei family was. After this investigation, he was shocked again.
As a prominent Heluo clan, the Wei clan does not have a history of hundreds or thousands of years like the wealthy families in Jiangnan. Although this surname has been passed down here for two or three hundred years, it has truly flourished during the reign of Emperor Taizong.
Their ancestors had two extraordinary figures, one literary and one military, and became the most trustworthy ministers in front of Emperor Taizong at that time. It was with their assistance that Emperor Taizong had achieved the feat of destroying Dali in the south and sweeping the desert in the north, and almost slaughtering all the remaining Guirong tribes.
Then the Wei family's civil and military ancestors did not have a rift with their respective identities. Instead, the two families were like one, which made the entire Wei family one for twenty years, and all descendants worked together to study martial arts, and never slacked off. They finally became the Heluo family.
Even though the children have been passed down for three or four generations in the past few decades, the clan popularity of the Wei clan has remained unchanged, and many of them have been able to gain fame and official positions in the court. Until now, five people in the Wei family hold important positions in the court. In addition to the Wei Jie mentioned earlier, there are also Wei Sansi of our sect, who is Wei Jie's uncle, who is the Minister of Works, Wei Chengxin is the edict of the Privy Council. Both of them are third-rank officials, Wei Xuan, who serves as Shaoqing in Honglu Temple, fourth-rank, and Wei Liang, fifth-rank prefect...
Perhaps there are still many prominent families in the capital, which are far above the Wei family, but in terms of their outstanding children and holding many important positions in the court, the Wei family is one of the few.
It is precisely because of this that the Wei family has great reputation and power in the local area. Even officials like the prefect must be polite to them, especially Wei Changming, who was once the Minister of Personnel and later retired from his hometown to become the head of the family due to illness. He is even more famous in Heluo and respects everyone.
Looking at the book about the Wei family's situation, Li Ling couldn't help but sigh again. It's really a matter of death. Compared with his Li family, his teacher's Wei family, he is really too arrogant. Speaking of the entire Li family, he has only some power. His cheap father has gone to today because of hiding debts.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little strange. Logically speaking, he was quite famous in the world, and he had already pulled out the roots of the dealer who had planned to do it. After so long, why did his cheap father not see anything? He never even saw a letter. Where did he die, or did he really have no shame to see his such an excellent son?
However, this question changed in Li Ling's mind, and he was soon left behind. Anyway, he had no impression of this cheap dad, and his relatives were all around him, wherever he loved.
When he returned to the present, Li Ling frowned again: "It seems that although the teacher is from the Wei family, he is really nothing in the entire family. And because he is a side branch, he is even less valued. Now he has taken the opportunity of Junyan of this sect, and I am afraid that he will be criticized next. If the Wei family is strong enough, he might have asked him to give in and give the opportunity to Wei Jie."
After knocking on the table for a while, Li Ling smiled: "The teacher has something to do, and the disciple will accept his efforts. Since the teacher may be in trouble, I, a disciple, naturally have to come forward to help him settle it." Thinking of this, he called Li Moyun again: "Go and check it out to see when the teacher will arrive in Beijing. We have to come forward to greet you in time."
"Yes, I'll take someone to investigate now." Li Moyun agreed and hurried away. As the person Li Ling trusted the most, he actually made many contributions. According to Li Ling's idea, he could have asked him for a military officer of a considerable rank, but he politely declined. He said that he would rather follow the young master and give him a general than give him a general.
Seeing that Li Moyun's attitude was so firm, and Li Ling was indispensable to his trusted brother in everyday life, so in the end, Li Ling chose to keep him apologetically. However, neither he nor the rest of the family had ever treated Li Moyun as a subordinate. In everyone's eyes, he was the master's brother and half of the master of the Li family.
...
In late October, the weather became colder and it seemed that even anyone in the Luo River was about to be frozen.
However, there are still few ships on the river. As the capital of Dayue, the number of cargo taken in Luoyang in the world is an astonishing astronomical figure. Compared with land, water transportation is obviously more reliable. Therefore, the Luohe pier outside the city has been extremely lively since the beginning. Countless ships of all sizes come and go, constantly sending people and transporting goods away, without a moment of stopping.
At noon, several other ships of all sizes came over the north wind and broke through the waves.
Logically speaking, these ships would compete for order. After all, if you dock earlier, you can unload the things on the ship earlier, and the boatmen can get more time to rest. But this time the situation is a little different. Although the passenger ship landed behind several ships, when it was about to get on the dock, the other ships did not compete with it, but quickly gave up their way and let it go to the port first.
The reason why this scene happened was just because there were two official flags in the bow of the passenger ship, which meant that there were court officials sitting inside, which was not something that ordinary cargo ships dared to offend first.
When the ship was docking and the springboard was still fixed, a team of well-dressed men and horses on the shore quickly greeted him, which further highlighted the extraordinary identity of the people on the ship. Yes, in the capital, do ordinary officials have special identities for people to wait for? I am afraid that the person who came to the second and third ranks was coming.
Just as many people on the shore were speculating, they all raised their heads and tiptoed to take a closer look. When the curtain was lifted in front of the cabin, a middle-aged man who was not old but elegant walked out first. This surprised everyone. Didn’t he agree that he was a high-ranking official in the boat? Why is it so young and doesn’t look like him?
Oh, maybe the real big man is still behind, and they are leading the way. Even the lead is so extraordinary. The big man may be the magistrate and marquis... Then, a few servants in green clothes and small hats were followed. In the end, there were only a few scholars and scholars with ordinary temperaments. Instead, they were better off coming out with men with strange colors on their faces.
Wei Liang, who was standing at the bow of the boat, looked at the team at the dock below with confusion, and felt strange. He didn't know who they were here to pick up in such a big show. Looking at the left and right, there seemed to be no big shot. It was only when he walked from the springboard to the shore and watched the team rush forward, and the man in front of him who smiled and bowed to him to meet, he finally made it clear that they were here to welcome him.
"Wen Zhong, why are you here? It's too ostentatious to have such a big show." Wei Liangwei said with some blame after supporting his student Li Ling.
Li Ling smiled and looked at the team behind him and said, "The teacher has not returned to Beijing for many years. Now he has been granted the title of His Majesty and returned to the court again. Being a student should be a good show, so that colleagues in the court and the people in the capital know such a big deal."
"You, I am a master from any other place. I can't tell anyone to laugh at it."
"How could it be? This time the teacher is the minister of the Ministry of Justice, one of the six ministries. How can he be considered an adult? Please, that is our carriage. If you have anything to say, let's get in, it's strong wind here, don't get cold." Li Ling smiled and sent the person to the carriage in front of him with great decoration and huge carriage, which had to be pulled by four horses in parallel.
Seeing this, Wei Liang shook his head again, but his eyebrows were still quite moved by the various actions of Li Ling, a student. He could see that Li Ling was supporting the scene for him. Obviously, the other party knew something and did so that more people would know about it.
Just as the two of them were about to arrive in front of the carriage under the gaze of many docks, someone in front of them said loudly: "Zhongxian, you have arrived. You can let me wait for my brothers!" There seemed to be complaining in their tone, and as the words rang, Wei Liang's face, who was originally smiling, changed. Then Li Ling turned around with him and saw several men in brocade uniforms strode towards him. He ignored Li Ling, and then rushed to Wei Liang and said: "The Grand Duke and several uncles are waiting for you at home. Are you not going with me?"
