Wentang

Chapter 576
Wei Damao's gaffe didn't last long, he regained his composure soon, and solemnly apologized to Wang Gui.

He really should apologize to Wang Gui.

To be annulled in front of civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty is indeed an insult to the Wei family, and it can be called a sworn enemy.

But when he knew the cause and effect, he realized that it was not Wang Gui's fault, and he did everything by himself.

The art of witchcraft is aimed directly at the queen, and anyone who touches it will die.And it's not just that I die alone, but the whole family and three clans will die.

The one who should be angry is Wang Gui, not him Wei Damao. The dignified prime minister is married to your family, and even tried his best behind the scenes to get you to a high position. What happened?You suddenly had a witchcraft incident.

Put yourself in the situation and think about it, if he encountered such a thing, he would wish to tear the other party into pieces, so that Wang Gui could see that he had done his best.

One of the two apologized sincerely, and the other readily accepted it. The scene where all misunderstandings disappeared seemed very harmonious.However, everyone knows in their hearts that all this is an illusion.

Wei Damao is really willing to apologize?There is a saying that I understand the truth, but from my standpoint you are doing it wrong.Retiring the engagement in public is slapping my Wei family in the face, how could I apologize to you in turn?
Wang Gui is willing to forgive him?It's even more nonsense.You almost dragged my whole family into the abyss for your own selfishness. It would be nice if you didn't cut your body into thousands of pieces. You still expect me to forgive you?
But both of them are very clear that both sides have demands from each other, and in order to achieve their goals, they must put on a gesture of smiling and burying their grudges.

The two sides sat down again, Wei Damao picked up the chopsticks and slowly enjoyed his favorite food, Wang Gui naturally picked up the flagon and poured him a glass of wine.

Wei Damao began to ask some questions about the outside world, and Wang Gui seemed to know everything.

The new imperial examination was successfully concluded, Yueshan performed in public the event and progress of the female hen transforming into a male, many officials were assassinated, the emperor was very angry and was investigating the matter thoroughly, many officials were arrested and so on.

Having learned about the outside world, Wei Damao paused for a moment, and began to tell his own experience.

Born in the family of a prefect, but unfortunately the family fell apart due to the war, he successively sought refuge with Wang Shichong, Xiao Xian and others, trying to revive the family through assistance, but unfortunately they all failed.

After Xiao Xian's defeat, he turned to Datang, but because his previous experience was not reused, he had nowhere to display his talents, and later he got acquainted with Wang Gui.

After all, he is also a descendant of Junwang's family. Although the family fortune has fallen, the foundation of the family is still there, and Wang Gui appreciates his knowledge and generosity.The friendship between the two families became deeper and deeper, and later they even became relatives of their sons and daughters.

With the support of the Wang family, his career started to improve, but it was not enough.

He is no longer young, and if he endures this slowly until he dies, he will be a servant.The official position is big enough, but it is still far from restoring the glory of the ancestors.

So he thought about something else, and at this moment his brother-in-law, whom he had hardly any contact with, found him.then……

Everything was fine at first, but was sent to hell by Yue Shan's words.

"Why? Why is God so unfair to me?" Wei Damao cursed.

"Is God really unfair to you? Born into a family, your starting point must have surpassed most people." Wang Gui said: "Even if your family is in decline, the knowledge, experience, etc. in your belly can benefit you infinitely. Than How lucky are you to be with all living beings?"

"I am a son of an aristocratic family, how can I be compared with those of the heads of Guizhou?" Wei Damao said proudly.

"Heh... your family is also the head of Guizhou for tens of generations and [-] generations. For thousands of years, Yanhuang was also from the head of Guizhou. Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, there have been a lot of heads of Guizhou who have been enshrined as marquises and ministers. You say you look down on Qianshou? "Wang Gui said mockingly.

"You... are you here to humiliate me?" Wei Damao's face flushed red with anger.

"I'm just telling you that your starting point has surpassed most people, and you have no right to complain about injustice." Wang Gui said lightly:
"You think the imperial court doesn't value you because you have followed Wang Shichong and Xiao Mian successively, but is that really the case? When the Supreme Emperor raised troops, he had been reported before, but now he is not the same as the privy envoy Wei Guogong."

"Wei Zheng also followed Li Mi in his early years. After returning to the Tang Dynasty, he assisted Prince Yin. It is said that he once conspired to murder the saint. Now he is also the prime minister."

"Don't feel that you are underappreciated. When you refuse to look down and see how those Guizhou heads who you despise are struggling to survive, it has already been decided that you will not be able to reach a high position."

"The greatest duty of a subject is to serve the herdsmen of the Son of Heaven. How can a person who doesn't even want to look at the head of Guizhou govern the people? So even if I work behind the scenes, you can only be a royal servant history."

"You have the strength and generosity of the family, but you also have their arrogance. This is your strength and your biggest flaw."

Wei Damao was ashamed by what he said, although he could deceive himself, what Wang Gui said was all wrong and nonsense.But deep down in his heart, he knew very well that what Wang Gui said was right.

But Wang Gui didn't let him go, and continued: "Even if there is no Yueshan, do you really think you can please? The relationship between the saint and the empress is well known, and he will bear it if you force him to abolish the empress." ?”

"Once the limelight passes, he will definitely find an opportunity to liquidate. You, the vanguard, will definitely be the first to be cleaned up."

"You don't even have to wait until that time, when the queen is really deposed, they will even take the initiative to get to know you in order to clear the relationship."

"In the imperial court, you are the majestic censor Zhongcheng, but in their eyes, you are just a chess piece, a chess piece that can be sacrificed at any time."

"Didn't you always boast that you are brilliant? Why can't you figure out such a simple truth? I think it's because you have lost your mind."

"What I was talking about with Hu Mopi is that you are the kind of people who don't tolerate death. It's just pity for your family members. If you don't know anything, you will die with them. And your Wei family, let alone a prosperous family, probably won't even have incense this time. I'm going to cut it off, I don't know how you have the face to meet the ancestors under Jiuquan."

Wang Gui went around in a big circle and finally brought the topic to his children and family. After such a long time of contact, he has a very clear understanding of Wei Damao's weaknesses.

Restoring the glory of the family is his greatest obsession and the goal he has fought for all his life.

Now you are going to be killed by the Yi clan, and all your descendants will be killed. You can't even save your life, let alone restore your family's glory.

Starting from this aspect is the best chance to open up his heart of resistance.

Sure enough, Wei Damao, who was downcast at first, also became excited when he heard this.

"Brother Yu Yu, I was wrong. I was really wrong. I didn't deserve to die. I just pitied the innocent children in my family. I beg you to help them. As long as I can let them escape this disaster, I will be a cow and a horse to repay you in the next life." kindness."
