My balcony connects the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 209 Intercession (Two in One)

That night, Wei Ning told her husband Yang Xiu the good news.

From Wei Ning's point of view, Yang Xiu has talent, but he is too noble, or it may be more appropriate to say that he is proud of his talent, he always feels that there is nothing he can't do, but he looks like he can accomplish nothing.

See what he does every day, either at home with books, or out drinking, talented and talented, but what can you do with your airs? Look at Tian Feng, a model of self-recommendation , Now who doesn't call him the number one counselor in Anyi.

Upon hearing the news, Yang Xiu acted a little complacent, nodded and said, "Cousin will owe me a favor now, haha."

Hearing this, Wei Ning frowned and said, "My husband, don't be too happy. Do you know exactly what Yuan's elder brother is looking for with Cheng'er?"

Yang Xiu was stunned for a moment, and said as a matter of course: "It won't be too much. I'm Zhongdao's uncle. Could it be that he can shirk me if I ask him for a favor and a small matter?"

Wei Ning knew what he was thinking in his heart, and reminded him kindly: "My husband is too optimistic, Cheng'er is a person with his own ideas, not to mention you, my elder brother can't do anything about him, Wei Shi can have what he is today Prestige depends entirely on his own strength, so don't be careless."

"There's still this kind of thing, the kid Zhongdao has changed quite a bit." Yang Xiu frowned, then let go, and said, "However, my husband has already made up his mind about this matter, and my cousin just wants to ask him for a little favor." Forget it, I still have some face."

Wei Ning smiled wryly, and was waiting to persuade him to be more tactful, because Yang Xiu couldn't wait to go out.

"Madam is good to rest. I will go to my cousin and tell him the news. By the way, I won't come back to eat tonight."

Looking at Yang Xiuyuan's back, Wei Ning always felt helpless and angry, shook his head, and only hoped that everything would go well for him.

Hao Ke came to the restaurant.

Yang Xiu is qualified to buy good wines on the list. Wei Cheng had someone set up a chess game to challenge him. He passed two rounds, but he couldn't pass the third round anyway. Later, he simply gave up. Anyway, he is already better than many people.

"Shopkeeper, here's a bottle of Gujing Tribute Wine." After entering the door, Yang Xiu greeted the shopkeeper.

"Yo, it's my aunt who's here. Hurry up and invite me upstairs, the private seats have been reserved." The shopkeeper is originally from the Wei family, so he naturally knows Yang Xiu.

The children of many aristocratic families in the hall on the first floor gathered together to watch the chess game challenge. After hearing Yang Xiu's voice, they hurriedly turned around and bowed their hands to greet each other. Not to mention that Yang Xiu is Wei Cheng's uncle, it is his identity as a famous scholar of Hongnong It is enough for these people to worship.

"Oh, someone is challenging again today?" Yang Xiu vaguely saw a petite figure sitting cross-legged in front of the chessboard through the crowd.

A young man clasped his hands and said, "That's right, a master came today. He has already passed five rounds in a row, and he is just one round away from top Xun Wenruo."

Yang Xiu was startled when he heard the words, and squeezed into the crowd curiously. It was hard for the surrounding audience to complain to him, so he took the initiative to make way for a passage.

Yang Xiu casually cupped his hands in thanks, walked up to the crowd, took a closer look, and was dazed.

Today there is only one chessboard, that is to say, only one person is challenging those perverted endgames.

However, compared to the challenge of the chess game, Yang Xiu cared more about the figure sitting on the challenge seat.

Just now, I thought it was petite from the outside, but only now did I realize that the challenger was a child.

"You mean, this little guy has passed five rounds in a row?" Yang Xiu couldn't believe this fact. After all, he had only passed two rounds, and it took a whole day of hard thinking to succeed in the challenge.

The young man who wanted to get close to him nodded and said: "Don't dare to lie to Brother Yang, it's already the sixth round, look at the shopkeeper's face, this is the first time I've seen the shopkeeper being forced to this point."

Yang Xiu looked at the shopkeeper who was playing chess with the child, and sure enough, cold sweat broke out on the shopkeeper's forehead, as if he was the challenger.

"General!"

At this moment, the child's immature voice resounded in the hall, and everyone whispered to each other, because the shopkeeper had already stood up and bowed his hands in salute, that is to say, the child really won.

"Little friend is amazing. You are the second challenger to win six rounds in a row. Please allow me to rest. I need to invite someone to play with you for the next challenge."

The shopkeeper's face was full of regret. Although he was not a celebrity, he was talented, otherwise he would not have been selected as the shopkeeper of this restaurant.

In the past, when he faced those challengers, he was able to win consecutive battles according to the chess moves Wei Cheng gave him, but today he was caught off guard by a young boy, so that he began to doubt the chess left by Wei Cheng. Is the path correct.

"Oh, are you going to invite my master?" the child asked excitedly.

The shopkeeper frowned, and the onlookers also wondered who the child's master was, so the shopkeeper asked, "Could it be that little friend is Mr. Zhang's master?"

"Mr. Zhang?" Sima Yi's disappointed voice sounded, "What, it's not my master, that's boring, I won't leave."

As he said that, he got up and patted his buttocks, and muttered angrily: "I thought I could attract Master."

"Hey, you don't want this wine?" Seeing that he really wanted to leave, the shopkeeper hurriedly shouted.

Sima Yi looked at the six bottles of good wine on the ground beside him, shook his head, and said, "I don't drink, it will only affect my thinking speed, whoever wants it can take it away."

"Hey, it's you little guy!" Seeing Sima Yi, Yang Xiu couldn't help but exclaimed.

Hearing this, Sima Yi also looked at Yang Xiu, his small brows were frowned like an adult, and he bowed his hands lazily, "Yi has seen Mr.

Yang Xiu said angrily and amusedly: "Why did you come to the tavern by yourself, kid? Has your father returned to Luoyang yet?"

Sima Yi shook his head, then nodded again, "My father has returned to Luoyang, and I wanted to stay."

Yang Xiu gave a thoughtful 'hmm', wondering why Sima Fang would leave a child here at ease, and at the same time couldn't help but look at the six bottles of good wine beside Sima Yi. He is a good drinker. There are more than a dozen kinds of good wine in the restaurant, but he has only drunk two.

Seeing this, Sima Yi cupped his hands and said, "If Mister likes it, I will give this wine to Mister."

Yang Xiu's eyes lit up, and he immediately restrained his emotions. He shook his head and said, "Forget it, this is your prize. I'd better get someone to send it back for you." If you want to drink, you have to drink the wine you won. What is a child's wine?

Sima Yi chuckled, and when he lowered his head, he twitched his lips in a cryptic manner: Father said that he is unparalleled in humanities, but he thinks too highly of himself and is hard to use.Looking at it now, it was indeed the case, but luckily he was not left as an apprentice to him.

"Hehe, if that's the case, then thank you, sir." Sima Yi did not refuse Yang Xiu's kindness. He heard that these wines were brewed by the 'master' himself. There are many people who want these wines, and they may be able to accept a few copies later. What about favors?

After Sima Yi left, Yang Xiu asked someone to deliver the wine to Sima's house in the city.

After waiting for half an hour, Yuan Shu came to the appointment.

Seeing Yuan Shu's tired face, Yang Xiu asked curiously, "What's wrong, brother?"

Yuan Shu yawned, knelt down opposite Yang Xiu, and said with a wry smile: "What else could it be, your nephew gave me another 'surprise', I can see that this kid is not a master of silence. "

"Zhongdao?" Yang Xiu blinked his eyes, "What is it that made my brother feel so emotional?"

Yuan Shu raised his eyes to look at him, and said faintly: "That kid took the Taiyuan Wang family to the pot!"

···
Time goes back to yesterday.

After seeing off several aunts and sisters-in-law, Wei Cheng took Zhong Chan to deliver the flowers to the pastry shop.

Hao Niang personally made delicious flower pastries for everyone. On the [-]th of every month, the pastry shop will make a large number of pastries and send them to the college. It is a special benefit for the teachers.

"Miss Huang is here too." When Wei Cheng entered the door, he saw Huang Yueying was also helping with the meeting.

Huang Yueying has been recuperating her body strictly according to Wei Cheng's menu recently, and now it has achieved some results. Although her face is still sallow, she no longer has to wear a veil and a bamboo hat to go out every day, and she is much more cheerful and optimistic.

"Brother Wei." Huang Yueying bowed cautiously to Wei Cheng.

The other cooks also stopped their work to greet them, but Hao Niang smiled faintly at Wei Cheng, "Here we come!"

Wei Cheng nodded with a smile, put a few bags of petals on the console, and asked Huang Yueying, "Why are you here?"

Huang Yueying said helplessly: "It's all my uncle's fault. He goes to the house to look for me every day. It's so annoying."

Wei Cheng was startled for a moment, then nodded awkwardly.

Huang Yueying's uncle is Liu Biao. Liu Biao and Huang Chengyan are brother-in-law. They are married to Cai Mao's two younger sisters respectively. They have a good relationship. The reason why Liu Biao went to Huang Yueying is probably because of his own relationship.

Huang Yueying said angrily: "My uncle knew that my father was a teacher in the college, so he thought of ways to ask my father to help, but my father disagreed, so he came up with my idea again, asking me to find a way to help him with something. Good thing, do you think I should say it?"

Wei Cheng laughed and said, "Then you go back and tell him that you've already said it, and I'm very satisfied. Isn't that all right?"

Huang Yueying pouted, "I won't get involved in your mess."

She had also heard about Liu Cong's death, and felt that he deserved it. She was always disgusted with this cousin who was so muddy that he couldn't support the wall. The most important thing was that when Liu Cong saw her for the first time, She was so scared that she cried, and then called her an ugly girl and threw stones at her.

Wei Cheng didn't know Huang Yueying's real thoughts, and he didn't care. As for Liu Biao's so-called 'sincerity', he always kept a respectful distance.

The pastry was ready soon, and Wei Cheng originally wanted to accompany them to the college.

"My lord, someone brought it back." Xu Ding suddenly came over.

Wei Cheng nodded calmly, and told Hao Niang that there were important things to deal with, so he would not accompany her to the academy.

Hao Niang is a caring girl, although she really wants to spend more time with Wei Cheng, "Then you can get some cakes to eat on the way."

Wei Cheng responded with a smile, and personally carried a snack box of pastries, and got into the carriage while eating.

The carriage went all the way out of the city and arrived at Dingjunfang.

"Why are there so many people gathered?" Wei Cheng opened the curtain, looked at the people gathered on both sides of the road and smelled it.

Xu Ding frowned and said: "The commotion is so loud that you can't cover it up even if you want to. Many members of the Wang family have relatives or friends in Anyi. Our people brought them all the way here, which naturally caught the attention of these people. "

At this time, a woman next to the carriage suddenly knelt on the ground and shouted: "Second Master, I beg Second Master to bypass my Dong'er, she is still young and doesn't understand anything, it is impossible for her to have anything to do with the Huns."

Someone took the lead, and more and more people began to intercede for Wang's people. Wei Cheng frowned and looked at the people gathered outside the car window, including some of Wei's relatives and friends, such as Xie's old grandpa.

"Nephew Zhongdao!" The old grandpa looked anxious, with Xie Yu supporting him and Ninth Uncle Xie Jin beside him.

Others may be able to ignore him, but Mrs. Xie has high morals and high prestige. No matter what aspect Wei Cheng considers, he cannot turn a blind eye to him.

"My lord, why don't you let them talk in Dingjunfang. There are so many people here, I'm afraid someone will make trouble." Xu Ding suggested.

Wei Cheng paused as he opened the door curtain, nodded and said, "Okay, let the old man and the others get in the car."

Xu Ding jumped out of the carriage, walked up to Mrs. Xie and said something, Mrs. Xie's face softened a lot, nodded, and boarded the carriage with the support of Xie Yu and Xie Jin.

Wei Cheng stood up and cupped his hands, and said, "Old Grandpa, this is not a place to talk, let's go in and talk."

Mrs. Xie nodded tremblingly, "Alright, I've made it difficult for you."

Wei Cheng looked at Xie Yu and Xie Jin, both of whom looked helpless.

Wei Cheng laughed and said, "It's okay."

Entering Dingjunfang, you will see rows of people kneeling in the central square, and the guards of the city are waiting in full force with weapons.

Mrs. Xie's eyes widened with anger, and she jumped out of the car excitedly, walked up to the leading middle-aged man, and was about to smash down with the crutch in his hand.

Fortunately, the city guards on the side had quick eyes and quick hands, and hurriedly stopped him.

Old Mrs. Xie scolded angrily: "Wang Qian, what do you say you did? Why did you collude with the Huns to persecute your compatriots? What are you talking about?"

A woman next to the middle-aged man cried and knelt, crawled over, hugged Mrs. Xie's leg, and begged: "Father, father, please save Peng'er and Luan'er, they don't know anything, woo woo , father, daughter please, they can't die."

A pair of teenagers and girls behind the woman also cried and shouted: "Grandfather, save my father, woo woo woo."

Mrs. Xie looked at her two grandsons, her heart was bleeding.

However, Wang Qian, who was kneeling in front of him, was ashamed of his heart. As early as when the city guards surrounded Wang's mansion, he knew that his affairs had been revealed, colluding with foreign clans, which was a way to kill the nine clans. felony.

Even though the Wei family is not the imperial court, Wei Cheng is not the emperor, and has no power of life and death, but Wang Qian knows that no matter who is in this matter, as long as he is a Han, he has the right and obligation to do it. A traitor, not to mention the law, is human rights. No.

Now, he only hoped that his wife and children would survive, so when he saw Mrs. Xie was going to beat him, he didn't dare to move. He was already mentally prepared to sacrifice himself to protect his family.

"Nephew Zhongdao!" Mrs. Xie looked back at Wei Cheng, his cloudy eyes were full of pleading.

Wei Cheng looked at this scene indifferently, regardless of whether Mrs. Xie was acting just now, in short, he did not intend to let any of the members of the Wang clan who participated in it go. For two lifetimes, what he hated most were traitors and traitors.
