Chapter 616: Details about the Wei Family

The Wei family's affairs are quite simple to talk about, at least much simpler than the Shen family's quagmire.

To sum it up in one sentence, it is a cuckoo taking over the magpie's nest.

The Wei family claimed to be a family of generals, but in the previous dynasty, being a family of generals was not something worth bragging about.

If you come from a family of nobles, or a family of poetry and literature, then it sounds more classy.

Military generals have long been unpopular.

Wei Dongliang, the head of the Wei family, once served as a fifth-rank guerrilla general. Later, he followed the President in his campaigns and led a battalion of troops in the Qilin Army. He, his two younger brothers, three sons, and his eldest grandson all died in battle.

By Wei Anran's generation, apart from him and his sister Wei Anyu, there was no one else in the line of the eldest son. It was no exaggeration to say that the family was full of loyal heroes.

Due to complicated historical and political reasons at the time, the Wei family did not receive any title from the imperial court, and after the establishment of the new government, there was no such thing as being conferred a title of nobility or being appointed as a prime minister. The president appreciated the loyalty and bravery of the Wei family and specially recruited the illegitimate son of the Wei family into the army.

In the past, when a general led an army to war, he would bring his personal soldiers as the core of the army, and the personal soldiers basically came from his own clansmen and subordinates. Especially for a family of generals like the Wei family, they paid more attention to the cultivation and training of personal soldiers.

But on the other hand, if even his own direct bloodline is wiped out, there will naturally be few personal soldiers left.

Outsiders do not know the specific details, but to sum it up, those battles were extremely brutal, and almost all the male members of the Wei family who were able to fight were killed.

The rest are naturally ordinary tribesmen who are not even qualified to be personal soldiers. Now in peacetime, relying on the military merits of their ancestors, they are able to enter the army and take up some less important jobs.

As the grandson of the eldest branch of the Wei family, Wei Anran was sent to Jishan Academy to study since he was a child. He has excellent grades and outstanding abilities, living up to the reputation of his ancestors. Moreover, he is childhood sweethearts with Cheng Xuefei, the eldest daughter of the Cheng family. If nothing unexpected happens, they will be engaged after graduation. If he is given a few more years to develop well, his future is limitless.

But Wei Anran died.

The person in charge of the Wei family now is his "third uncle" Wei Heng.

To sum it up in two words: "born out of wedlock".

Wei Ming is the grandson of this third uncle, and now serves as a captain in the Qilin Army. Wei Dafu is the old servant who manages the Wei family. When he heard that the young master was beaten and hospitalized, he made a special trip to visit him. Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the door, he was tied up by several boys and given a good beating.

"Why don't you let Wei Anyu go to school?"

"The eldest young master had an accident, and the marriage that had been arranged with the Cheng family fell through. In order to maintain the relationship with the Cheng family, the third old master wanted to marry the eldest young lady to Cheng Yunting from the third branch of the Cheng family, and the Cheng family agreed."

If you look at it from this perspective, there is certainly nothing wrong with it.

It’s like a salesperson who recommends financial products to you. All the financial products he sells are profitable, and you will lose money if you don’t buy them.

Men should get married when they are old enough and women should get married when they are old enough. Whether to study or get married, since the elders have made arrangements, why should outsiders interfere? Moreover, the in-laws found for Wei Anyu are not ordinary people. The Cheng family is now in a high position and is in its heyday.

If you don't even want to marry this husband, who else do you want to marry? The Monkey King?
If we look at what Wei Dafu said, it was not unfair for Tang Ping'an to be beaten.

But Wang Yunxiao was not fooled by such high-sounding nonsense.

"All the main branches of the Wei family have died. Did all the comrades-in-arms from the past also die? No one cares about this matter?" "After all, it is a matter of our own family. It is not the place for outsiders to point fingers..."

"Then why was Tang Moli detained by you? She is not a member of your family, right?"

"This……"

Seeing Wei Dafu hesitating, Tang Pingan gritted his teeth and said, "When we went there, the Wei family wouldn't let us in. Later, my sister used some tricks... and finally got them to tell her that Wei Anyu was locked up at home and not allowed to go out or have contact with outsiders. Then my sister went to the backyard to look for her, and at that moment, that bastard came back with his men."

"Oh, so your sister must have found out something that the Wei family doesn't want outsiders to know."

Wang Yunxiao turned to look at Wei Dafu, frowned and said, "Let's not talk about this for now, let's talk about your young master first. Isn't his temper too arrogant? It's not enough to capture Tang Moli, he also ran to the school to kidnap people. Does he think he is the king of the world?"

Wei Dafu laughed dryly and said, "There must be some misunderstanding here..."

"I believe there must be a misunderstanding."

Wang Yunxiao nodded and smiled, "So go back and tell your head old man that if he wants his precious grandson to return alive, release Tang Moli tonight, and tomorrow morning, have him bring Wei Anyu and 100,000 yuan to the school in person to apologize to our principal. Just these two things, remember them?"

Wei Dafu opened his mouth, but hesitated to speak.

"Don't remember? Need me to repeat it again?"

"Remember! Remember! I will definitely pass on your message!"

After Wei Dafu limped away, Wang Yunxiao turned his attention to the younger students in the younger grades.

"What do you think of the information I just got from him?"

Everyone looked at each other in silence.

Liu Crab asked tentatively: "Kill his whole family and eradicate the roots?"

"What's the matter with killing the whole family?"

Wang Yunxiao said helplessly: "I am asking you, since you are not happy after being beaten up, have you thought of any good way to get revenge? I am not asking you to shout slogans here, but how to do it specifically!"

Yang Tianyu raised his hand and said, "Since they want to form an alliance with the Cheng family, we only need to inform the Cheng family of the cause and effect of this matter, and the Cheng family should have some concerns. This may be more painful for them than killing them."

You have a bright future, don't you?

Wang Yunxiao looked at Yang Tianyu in surprise. This kind of words were not something that a child from an ordinary family could say. When he and Yang Dahe were hung on the playground and whipped, Wang Yunxiao thought that the brothers were not serious people.

Yang Tianyu glanced at the expressionless Yang Dahe next to him and continued, "To put it bluntly, the Wei family's affairs are a dispute between legitimate and illegitimate children. Miss Wei only lost her father and brother, and her entire family was not exterminated. How can a bastard Third Grandfather, who was born out of wedlock, make the decision on the main family's marriage? If it is really a good marriage, it would be fine, but look at the way the Wei family is trying to hide it. Is there anything fishy going on?"

"It's not difficult to find out the truth. We just need to write a letter and send it to the Qilin Army, and someone will naturally ask about it. The real difficulty is that we can't take revenge on ourselves for the beating we received."
