Zhenguan Han-in-law

Chapter 550
Chapter 546

Wei Hao returned to the mansion, lying there thinking about what he said to Li Shimin today. The meaning in Li Shimin's words was to give up the prince. Not only did he give up the prince, but he also planned to give up Li Tai and Li Ke. In case of emergencies, but once there is a better prince, Li Shimin will replace him without hesitation. Wei Hao couldn't help but think of Li Zhi. Does Li Zhi still want to be the emperor?
Wei Hao didn't dare to think about it anymore. If this is the case, Li Chengqian is really in danger, and Li Shimin may not really want to choose a suitable emperor. He is worried that the matter of Xuanwumen will be repeated.
Li Shimin is now in his prime, and his sons are also grown-ups. Those sons may not have no ideas. Therefore, Wei Hao is also skeptical about Li Shimin's words, and can only speak while watching.

The next morning, after Wei Hao got up, he needed to go to the homes of those older sisters. First, he went to the eldest sister’s house. Now the eldest brother-in-law is already in the management of the Royal Academy and has a grade. He also received the royal salary.

"Quick, Shenyong, come in, come in!" Cui Jin was very happy to see Wei Hao coming over with a small gift. Now Cui Jin's mansion is also very big, and there is also a greenhouse. Wei Hao just entered the greenhouse and found several An unknown person, Wei Hao nodded with a smile.

"This is someone from my hometown, just arrived this morning!" Cui Jin introduced to Wei Hao, and Wei Hao nodded.

"This is my younger brother, Wei Hao, Xia Guogong!" Cui Jin said to those people, and they all stood up and saluted quickly.

"Everyone, sit down!" Wei Hao said with a smile.

"Shen Yong, eat here at noon, don't leave!" At this time, everyone Wei Chunjiao came in and shouted at Wei Hao.

"Sister, I still want to go to the second sister's house. I'll have dinner at your house. When will I go to celebrate the New Year? If I don't eat, I'll leave after a while!" Wei Hao replied immediately.

"How dare you!" Wei Chunjiao left after finishing speaking.
Wei Hao shrank his head, and then shouted: "Eldest sister, I ate at your house, do you want to eat at the second sister's house, do you want to eat at the third sister's house, when do I want to go?"

"That's your business, don't you dare to eat at my house, and I'll ask my parents to clean you up when I get home!" Wei Chunjiao threatened Wei Hao.

"No, sister!" Wei Hao shouted wanting to cry without tears. This is her own sister, a compatriot from the same mother. Only Wei Chunjiao dares to flirt in front of Wei Hao. Wei Chunjiao dared to hit and threaten herself, but she had no choice but to deal with her.

"Sister, sister, tell me yourself. Sister has been in Chang'an for two years. You have eaten a few meals at my house. It's okay, so it's settled. Don't worry, I brought a few cooks from home. You taste it!" Wei Chunjiao said to Wei Hao.

"Okay, okay, can I eat? But I will go to the second sister's house first, then to the third sister's house, and then to your house for dinner, okay?" Wei Hao said helplessly to Wei Chunjiao.

"No, it's here, I can't go anywhere, and my sister still wants to talk to you? People who don't see you all year round, every time you go home, you are either not at home, or there are guests at home, so you can't talk to me." You chat, this morning, you are not allowed to go anywhere, just stay at home!" Wei Chunjiao said to Wei Hao, Wei Hao looked helplessly at his brother-in-law Cui Jin.

"Don't look at me, this is a matter between you two, you put me in the middle, I dare not!" Cui Jin immediately said with a smile.

"All right, all right, I'll listen to you!" Wei Hao could only nod his head in agreement.

"Okay, you guys are chatting, I'll go and arrange meals, my brother has a big mouth, we need to arrange, if the arrangements are not good, this brat won't come next time!" Wei Chunjiao said to those people, and they nodded quickly.

"Come on, drink tea, Shenyong, it's all good tea. I got it from my father-in-law. You don't know that my father-in-law is afraid of me!" Cui Jin said proudly to Wei Hao, now Cui Jin is much more cheerful .

"You take so much, I'm surprised. Every time you come to my house, you just make tea! You even urged my sister to come and get it. My mother who made it said, don't let my eldest sister go back. Every time you go back, you just make tea." Tea, why do you need so much tea?" Wei Hao said to Cui Jin with a smile.

"That can't be helped. They stole my tea. Those teachers are just trying to get tea from me. They are shameless. Every time I hide the tea in the office room, they can always find it. What can I do?" ?” Cui Jin smiled triumphantly, and he also knew that Wei Hao didn’t care about those tea leaves at all. Wei Hao was in the south, but he managed thousands of acres of tea gardens, and some of them were tea leaves.

"Well, are you okay? Are you at the academy?" Wei Hao looked at Cui Jin and asked.

"Okay, very good, I'm over there, teaching with all my heart, and I'm happy to see good children. The point is, you know, no one dares to provoke me, and I won't provoke others. Some things, they do too much Well, I'll go and say, let them correct it, I can't let your hard work be ruined by them, this is not acceptable, and I will turn a blind eye to the others, they are all here to gain merit, You don't care about these achievements, just let them do this, as long as they can teach students well!" Cui Jin said with a smile and nodded.

"That's good, don't worry about those things, you don't rely on this to make money, and you don't rely on this to get promoted. Of course, if you want to go to a local county magistrate, that's fine too!" Wei Hao said to Cui Jin.

"No, I don't have the freedom to be an official. I'm at the academy. I'm very happy. You know, I don't lack money. My family has a lot of property. It's all done by your sister. As for me, I work every day. When I come back, I will teach your nieces and nieces to study and let them take the imperial examination. If they can get a Jinshi, it is impossible for your uncle not to help me. That’s it for me. There is no such big revenge. Besides, second brother-in-law We also get dividends on the construction site, which is good every year, very good!" Cui Jin said with a wave of his hand.

"Well, fine, as long as you are happy, there is no need to be an official!" Wei Hao nodded and said.

"By the way, these few are all my clan brothers. This time, I came here to study for my children. In addition, this son was a Jinshi before, but the official position has not been granted very well. He is still in the Imperial Supervision Department. The Ministry is a small official of the eighth grade, and they want to be transferred, and the Cui family does not have so many resources for them, so they come to me, but I can't help, I am a teacher!" Cui Jin pointed at those people Speaking to Wei Hao, they also laughed at Wei Hao.

"Well, how old are you?" Wei Hao asked.

"It's 26!" Cui Jin's clan brother said immediately.

"Well, the eighth grade is fine, don't be in a hurry to transfer, you really want to transfer after only one year in the Ministry of Industry, you may not be able to transfer, this matter, wait, let's talk about it next year!" Wei Hao clicked He nodded and said, he was indeed still young.

"Okay, I just came to see Cui Jin. After all, I haven't moved here since I moved here from my hometown, so I came here specially to walk around!" The man said to Wei Hao with a smile.

"Well, walking is good!" Wei Hao nodded,
And when they heard what Wei Hao just said, they also knew that Wei Hao couldn't help them, at least not now, and it also depends on Cui Jin's attitude. If Cui Jin really wants to help, then Wei Hao will definitely make a move, Cui Jin doesn't want to help, Wei Hao will definitely not help, Wei Hao doesn't know them either,

After chatting for a while, Wei Hao went to tease his niece and niece. Now they are happy. During the Chinese New Year, no one cares about them.
After a while, Cui Jin's elder brother Cui Cheng came over, and brought his wife and children with him. The children were even happier when they gathered together.

"Xia Guogong, I went to your house in the morning on the first day of the lunar new year, but you were not at the house!" Cui Cheng came over and said to Wei Hao with a smile.

"Well, I spent the whole morning in the palace on the first day of the new year. In the afternoon, I walked to the houses of the princes. At night, there was a lot of trouble at home. I didn't see many people who came to pay New Year's greetings. I'm sorry!" Wei Hao said in return.

"Hey, that's because you're busy. We all know that if you don't sit inside for a while, those children won't be afraid of the cold!" Cui Cheng said to Wei Hao.

"Well, yes, please!" Wei Hao nodded, and then went to the greenhouse again.

"Come, Duke Xia, drink tea!" Wei Chen's wife Liang Shi saw Wei Hao approaching and immediately made tea for him.

"Hey, thank you sister-in-law!" Wei Hao quickly got up and took it.

"It's still a habit now, in the Ministry of Civil Affairs?" Wei Hao looked at Cui Cheng and asked.

"Utility is also very good. However, I heard that the Ministry of Civil Affairs is going to transfer. I am now a chief of the sixth rank, and I don't know if I can be transferred. Anyway, there are a lot of news. This time, the Ministry of Civil Affairs will release a few Going to serve as a county magistrate in a local area, don’t drive, Shangshu talked to me and asked me if I want to go, if I don’t want to go, I’ll be fine as long as I’m in the capital, I don’t have such high expectations for being an official , the whole family is safe!" Cui Cheng looked at Wei Hao and said.

"Well, that's true!" Wei Hao nodded.

"The Cui family also looked for me, and hoped that I could go out and serve as an assistant, let me come to find my younger brother, let my younger brother find you, they all know that if you want to transfer someone, it's just a matter of one sentence, and I didn't Promise, I don't have any good feelings for the Cui family, and I don't plan to get too close to them, and I don't plan to use their relationship, just like this, I slowly rise up, and the officials above see me doing it. In fact, if you want to be promoted, you can promote me, if you don't want to, forget it, I don't care!" Cui Cheng continued to say with a smile.

"Brother is so free and easy!" Wei Hao laughed when he heard this.

"That is, if it wasn't for you that time, I guess I would be dead now, leaving orphans and widowed mothers, and I will trouble my brother at that time. After seeing it through, just like this, I can save my life, continue to be an official, and make money , That's it!" Cui Cheng said to Wei Hao.

"Yes, the patriarch also came to look for me, and hoped that I would talk to Shen Yong and transfer the eldest brother's position. I said I would not go, but the eldest brother did not come to me and said, what do you mean by coming? Besides, Shen Yong Is the relationship so worthless?" Cui Jin also said to Wei Hao.

"That's okay. I also know what my brother is doing in the Ministry of Civil Affairs. It's okay to transfer, but it's not necessary. The Ministry of Civil Affairs is very good now. How many people are watching your position? Besides, they I also hope that you will be promoted, so they can arrange people to go in, and you may not be comfortable in the capital if you are transferred outside to be another driver!" Wei Hao looked at the two of them and said, and they also nodded,
After chatting for a while, we started to have lunch. After lunch, Wei Hao went to the second sister's house. After chatting with the second brother-in-law for a while, he went to the third sister's house. The third sister Wei Xijiao took Wei Hao to eat. Let go, there is no way, Wei Hao can only eat at the third sister's house,
After dinner, Wei Hao returned home.As soon as he sat down, Wei Furong came over and said, "Today, Du Gou from the Du family came over and seemed to have something to do with you. I told him that you don't have time all day, so he went back and said he would come tonight!"

"Du Gou? Oh!" Wei Hao nodded upon hearing this, and now Du Gou has been transferred to the Ministry of Punishment.

Just as Wei Hao finished speaking, the porter came over and said to Wei Hao, "Du Gou, please see me!"

Wei Hao looked at Wei Furong, stood up immediately, walked outside, and when he was talking outside, he found that Du Gou had come.

"I've met Cai Guogong!" Wei Hao immediately bowed his hands and said, he had been to Du Gou's mansion before, but Dugu was not at home.

"I met Xia Guogong, didn't I bother you?" Du Gou asked Wei Hao with a smile.

"No, I'm going to pay New Year's greetings to my sister's house today. There's no way, there are so many sisters!" Wei Hao said with a smile, Du Gou also laughed when he heard that, and then Wei Hao invited Du Gou to sit in the study, and Wei Hao sat in the study Make tea for him inside.

"Now there are a lot of news in the capital. I don't know if Shen Yong knows something?" Du Gou looked at Wei Hao and asked seemingly casually.

"Which aspect?" Wei Hao also pretended to be confused and said.

"It's about the workshop?" Du Gou immediately replied.

"Oh, I know something, it's a mess, why, you've heard about it too?" Wei Hao looked at Du Gou with a smile and asked.

"Well, I heard that the attitude of people outside is waiting for you. On the night of the first day of junior high school, there was news that as long as you harm your interests, it is fine, so now everyone is still waiting, no one has made a move yet, but maybe it will be done. Yes, we don't know yet." Du Gou nodded and said to Wei Hao.

"Oh, anyway, those workshops can't fall down. This is not only in my interest, but also in the interest of the common people, and even more in the interest of the court. I don't think I need to say that everyone knows about it. As for those shares, how do you I can't control the distribution!" Wei Hao said with a wry smile.

"Then, the people in charge of those workshops didn't come to you for help?" Du Gou continued to look at Wei Hao tentatively and asked. When Wei Hao heard this, he looked at Du Gou.

"Someone is putting pressure on those in charge. If we don't sell to them, the family will go bankrupt at least, and the family will be ruined at worst!" Du Gou said with a smile.

"Is it so domineering? The family is ruined?" Wei Hao said a little displeased at the moment.

"No one wants to sell it, right? This is a golden chicken that can lay golden eggs, who would be willing?" Du Gou said with a smile.

"Then what do you mean?" Wei Hao said and poured tea for Du Gou.

"I don't mean anything? Just come here and chat casually. Many people say that you are dedicated to making money for the royal family, but you are a member of the family, but you have not made money for your Wei family and the family. So, There are quite a few people who arrange you outside." Du Gou said with a very free and easy smile.

"Ha!" Hearing this, Wei Hao couldn't help laughing, and continued to drink tea. Now Wei Hao didn't know what Du Gou meant by coming here, whether he was here to stir up trouble, or he was really here to chat. After all, He is also a member of the Du family, and has a very close relationship with the head of the Du family. At the same time, he himself is on the side of the family.

"Shen Yong, it's just the two of us talking. What I said here has entered your ears, but I won't admit it when I leave this door. How about it?" Du Gou sat up straight, looked at Wei Hao and said.

Wei Hao nodded, looked at Du Gou, and wanted to know what he meant?Why do you still say this?

"Shen Yong, do you think the aristocratic family really shouldn't exist?" Du Gou stared at Wei Hao carefully. "Why do you ask that?" Wei Hao looked at Du Gou incomprehensibly.

"I just heard that you don't like the aristocratic family, and you don't like the way the aristocratic family does things, so I want to ask." Du Gou immediately explained to Wei Hao.

"It shouldn't exist. Families can exist, but the aristocratic family, um, is too domineering and self-interested in doing things. Moreover, it is an unstable factor in the world. With the aristocratic family, the people will not have a stable life!" Wei Hao immediately nodded and admitted. Said, Du Gou was surprised when he heard it.

"Why, what I said is wrong, or do you have a better reason?" Wei Hao immediately asked Du Gou,

Now it is said that Du Wei and Du Wei both have state dukes, and both of them are young, one is promoted by his own strength, while the other, although passed down by his father, is also a man who has read poetry and books. People, both of them are heroes of the two families, compare the two of them with the Changan Shuangjie!

"It's not wrong, it's just that the aristocratic family has existed for so many years, so there is a reason for it, isn't it? Now you want to destroy them, isn't it unrealistic?" Du Gou stared at Wei Hao and asked.

"What do you mean?" When Wei Hao heard Du Gou say this, he really didn't know what he meant?
"I don't mean anything, that is to say, don't be fooled by the royal family. The royal family is actually a family, but now the royal family is so powerful that it has firmly suppressed other families. With you here, you help suppress the family. , the life of the aristocratic family is very sad now, and there is a phenomenon of official faults, for example, in the current Zheng family, there is no one above the fifth rank who has been beaten by you." Du Gou looked at Wei Hao with a smile and said.

"I didn't hit that!" Wei Hao said immediately, waving his hands, and vaguely guessed the purpose of Du Gou's coming here.

"But it still has something to do with you, doesn't it? Besides, don't you feel scared when His Majesty treats those officials like this?" Du Gou looked at Wei Hao and continued to ask.
