Chapter 139: Recognizing Wei Qing as the Ancestor, Zhao Zhen Ordered the Ministry of Rites to Record It
"Your Majesty, I first came to the capital. Fortunately, I was cultivated by your Majesty, and I am where I am today."
"But my qualifications are still lacking and my position is humble. I cannot stand up to many nobles."
"I can only kneel down and beg Your Majesty to grant you a decree!"
When Wei Yuan said this, he couldn't kneel down.
What is the basis for negotiating terms?
Just to make Zhao Zhen think that he is absolutely loyal!
Otherwise, the emperor would be suspicious the moment he said it!
Behind the Wei family stood the British government.
But that is not a long-term solution after all, and it is not the foundation of the Wei family itself.
What Wei Yuan wants to do is to let the descendants of the Wei family take root in the capital and thrive into towering trees without having to rely on anyone!
He wants to make the Wei family the most prominent family in the Great Zhou Dynasty after the royal family!
Or.take it one step further!
This requires the joint efforts of several generations!
At this moment, Wei Yuan revealed his ambition.
But he believed that everything he did was flawless and would never make Zhao Zhen suspicious!
Starting from greed for money and lust, he gradually gained Zhao Zhen's complete trust.
If there was any disclosure in the middle, he would not say what he said today!
For example, if he stayed overnight in the palace and pretended to be drunk to gain Zhao Zhen's trust, if Zhao Zhen found out about his fake drunkenness, Wei Yuan would not have to form a new army.
The Wei family has no foundation, so Wei Yuan needs to fight and earn everything by himself!
Don’t you, Zhao Zhen, still lack martial arts? If the new army is established, it will be martial arts!
The premise is that if you offend your nobles, you will do it!
The Wei family still needs to be firmly tied to the big ship of Xungui!
Zhao Zhen stared at Wei Yuan with deep eyes and frowned slightly.
Finally, the tea time passed.
Small beads of sweat gradually appeared on Wei Yuan's forehead.
Zhao Zhen withdrew his gaze, stood up slowly, and walked outside the hall alone.
Wei Yuan knelt on the ground and remained calm.
Zhao Zhen, who was looking at the scenery outside the hall, sighed softly and said:
"Your honor, I can help you offend."
"New Army, I want to see the results."
"I just want to hear one word from you, just one word."
Wei Yuan was stunned, his thoughts racing.
If it were anyone else, his clothes would have been soaked with sweat at this moment.
Wei Yuan, on the other hand, was just thinking about how to respond.
I'm just thinking about where the Wei family will go!
He faced Zhao Zhen's back, his eyes gradually turned cold, his fists clenched tightly, and suddenly, he kowtowed heavily and said:
"The new army belongs only to His Majesty and the royal family!"
"I will serve your Majesty to the death for the rest of my life. I will die without regrets and never give up!"
Wei Yuan's voice echoed in the empty hall for a long time.
I don’t know how much time has passed.
Zhao Zhen slowly turned around and looked down at Wei Yuan who was kneeling on the ground, his expression gradually became gentle.
He helped Wei Yuan up and said with a smile:
"My victory over Wei Qing is like Liu Bei's victory over Kong Ming."
Zhuge Kongming was both civil and military.
Both civil and martial arts were featured in the Three Kingdoms.
Today, Wei Yuan presented the salt introduction method, which can be called Wenzhi.
Wei Yuan cupped his hands and said, "My lord, I only want to be your Majesty's Wei Qing, Huo Qubing!"
Zhao Zhen nodded meaningfully.
Later, Wei Yuan left the Xuanzheng Hall.
Zhao Zhen stood in front of the palace gate, with his hands behind his back, staring at his back.
Wei Yuan felt that someone had been staring at him.
But he didn't dare to turn his head.
Step by step, we descended the steps leading to Xuanzheng Hall.
Soon, Zhao Zhen could no longer see his back.
"Wei Qing, for my sake, don't you dare to offend even noble people?"
"I can understand it. After all, if you want to shine on the lintel of the Wei family, I can give it to you, but I can also make you irreversible."
"I don't hope that you will become Sima Yi, and I will not be Cao Cao."
"Wei Qing, please don't let me down!"
——
Zhao Zhen personally posted the imperial decree that no nobles should interfere in the formation of a new army.
In an instant, many martial artists came to the British Duke's residence to discuss the matter.
"I said, brother, isn't this the order of your precious disciple?"
"His Majesty has always treated our military heroes favorably, why would he issue such an imperial edict?"
"Brother, if you don't give us an explanation, we will go before His Majesty and form a new army. Our noble sons and daughters cannot be left out."
"That's right, Your Majesty knows that our noble sons are loyal!"
"."
Some people speculate that this matter is related to Wei Yuan.
No matter what the actual situation is, they dare not make a decision.
So, come and ask Zhang Fu.
There was a pause.
Zhang Fu looked at the crowd, pretending to be calm and said:
"Think about it carefully, how old is your Majesty this year?"
"Your Majesty wants martial arts. If you continue to use noble sons, what's the point of forming a new army?"
Mr. Han frowned and said, "Brother, that's not what you said."
"If our noble sons are not needed and the new army's combat power far exceeds that of the ordinary imperial army, what will your Majesty think of us?"
As soon as these words came out, someone immediately echoed:
"Yes, the new army is about to be formed. How will Your Majesty pay attention to our noble sons from now on?"
"No, this absolutely won't happen! You guys will jointly sign on!"
"Yes, if we jointly sign the memorial, we will both be prosperous and suffer losses!"
"."
Zhang Fu stared at Mr. Han, his brows furrowed deeply.
At this moment, Ningyuan Hou Gu Yankai came with a spear in his hand.
"Jointly submit a petition? Obstruct the establishment of the new army? Let me see, who among you brothers has the courage to do this!"
As soon as the voice fell.
Gu Yan opened the wine and looked at Zhang Fu.
The two looked at each other, as if to say, if Wei brat gets into trouble, there are elders to take care of him!
With Gu Yan making such a fuss.
Those military heroes who could pry at least half of the army of the Great Zhou suddenly became silent.
Then, Zhang Fu stroked his beard and said:
"Whether the new army succeeds or not, it will not affect our interests."
"Your Majesty may just want to give it a try. If we don't participate, what can the new army look like?"
"Because Your Majesty knows the usefulness of us brothers. If you want to train soldiers on a large scale, you have to look at our nobles."
"As for the new army, Your Majesty just wants to know whether it can be trained into an elite army according to the actual training records without the help of our nobles."
When everyone heard this, their faces were slightly better.
——
In late September of the fourth year of Jiayou.
The ancestral temple built by Wei Yuan outside the capital was completed.
He asked Zhao Zhen for permission and invited a master from the Daxiangguo Temple to be the host of the ancestral temple.
And this ancestral temple was named "Zhonglie Temple" by Wei Yuan.
When Zhao Zhen learned about it, he was very pleased, so he wrote down the three words in his own handwriting and asked Wei Yuan to copy them down and use them as a plaque.
In early October.
Before Hualan's wedding.
Wei Yuan, Wei Shuyi, Wei Ruyi and some children of the Sheng family.
There are also the younger generation of the Duke of Yingguo's mansion, and several nobles who have a good relationship with Wei Yuan.
They all went to Zhonglie Temple to observe the Wei family's ancestral worship ceremony.
Today, Wei Yuan wants to worship his ancestors.
He wants to recognize Wei Qing as his ancestor.
The Wei family will also step onto a new level from now on.
At the same time.
In the Xuanzheng Hall.
Zhao Zhen put his hands behind his back and remained silent.
The eunuchs and maids in the whole hall were shocked by the aura he showed, and thus a little frightened.
They hadn't seen such a "silent" emperor for a long time.
Some older eunuchs vaguely remembered that the first two times were because of the news of the death of Fan Wenzheng and Wuxiang.
What was it for this time?
I don't know how long it took.
They only saw the emperor take a deep breath and slowly say:
"Order, Minister of Rites Su Che."
"Register the matter of Zhongyong Bo's recognition of his ancestor and spread it throughout the world."
"So far, the ancestor of the Wei family can be traced back to Wei Qing, Marquis of Changping in the Han Dynasty, and record it in history for future generations to hear."
