Chapter 106 Why Are People From Other Countries Superior to the People of Our Great Zhou?
Yelu Xinxian and Li Liangzuo's comments on Wei Yuan were all from the bottom of their hearts.
Since the battle of Yanmen, these two have paid attention to him.
Zhang Fu, Yeli Yuqi, Yelu Renxian and other older generations will sooner or later pass away. In the next 20 to 30 years, their generation will rule the world.
Among the younger generation, a leader has emerged. The key is that this person is still in the enemy country, so they have to worry.
Now, the entire official post station is filled with people from the Imperial City Department.
The remarks between the envoys of the two countries will be accurately conveyed to Zhao Zhen.
At this moment, in the Xuanzheng Hall.
Yan Da, the commander of the Imperial City Department, bowed and said:
"Your Majesty, they say that General Wei is a hidden dragon. Could this be their plan to alienate him?"
The word "dragon" cannot be said casually in the Great Zhou.
Zhao Zhen smiled and said, "I understand."
"Since Wei Qing joined the army, his achievements have been unmatched. They are also worried about Wei Qing's future growth."
"The more they praise Wei Qing, the more they alienate the relationship between Wei Qing and me, the more I feel that Wei Qing is worthy of reuse."
Let me ask, a general leading an army tells his soldiers to be loyal to the emperor and to the country.
Can such a person have a disloyal heart?
So, Zhao Zhen trusts Wei Yuan very much.
Even this trust is faintly more than Zhang Fu's.
As the commander of the Imperial City Division, Yan Da speaks for Wei Yuan, but not for the person.
Although he is also a military general, he is only loyal to Zhao Zhen and does not participate in the dispute between civil and military.
Whoever has problems and whoever is worth guarding against, whether civil or military, the Imperial City Division treats them equally.
What surprised Yelu Xin first was that he originally thought that after saying that Wei Yuan is a hidden dragon.
Those civil officials of the Great Zhou would definitely stand up and take the opportunity to cause trouble for Wei Yuan.
After all, it is well known that there are serious factional struggles in the Great Zhou.
However, after a few days, there was no movement in the court of the Great Zhou.
It seemed that those civil officials did not hear what he said at all.
This made him have an illusion, could it be that there was no factional struggle in the Great Zhou? ——
The news that Wei Yuan defeated the envoys of Liao and Xia by fighting one against two also spread throughout Bianjing.
I believe that the whole Great Zhou will know about this soon.
Now, everyone in Bianjing is talking about this:
"General Wei is as brave as Guan Yu and Zhao Yun! First, he killed seven enemy generals in battle, and then fought one against two, winning a great victory and enhancing our country's prestige!"
"Those Liao and Xia people are all arrogant in front of us Zhou people, saying openly or secretly that our Great Zhou does not have enough martial virtues, but now that we have General Wei, who dares to say that our Great Zhou does not have martial virtues?"
"General Wei's victory over the envoys of Liao and Xia is really a gratifying move, so great!"
"."
In the past, the people of Great Zhou talked most about which literati wrote what new poems.
How about now?
The number of discussions about Wei Yuan has increased.
This is a good thing for the military generals of Great Zhou.
Killing enemies and making achievements on the battlefield can also bring honor to the ancestors, not just the imperial examination to enter the officialdom.
To be honest, if there was no Wei Yuan, Xu Changzhi and others would have difficulty in making a name for themselves.
Since Zhang Fu, the Great Zhou has not experienced much turmoil. If no heroes emerge, the military generals will be cut off.
At this moment.
At the House of the Loyal and Brave Marquis.
Wei Yuan is having dinner with his second sister Wei Ruyi.
Suddenly, Minglan came here with Mu Ge'er in her arms and said with a smile:
"Uncle, you are famous again. Now people all over the street are discussing your victory over the envoys of Liao and Xia."
Hearing this, Wei Yuan smiled and said, "How can a girl like you be interested in such things?"
"Where is your mother? Why didn't she come?"
It has been three days since Wei Yuan defeated the envoys of the two countries.
And Wei Shuyi had returned to the Sheng family yesterday.
Minglan handed Mu Ge'er to Xiao Tao behind her and said:
"It's hard for Ming'er not to know, this matter is going crazy."
Wei Yuan nodded and said nothing more.
Minglan sincerely admired and said: "I don't know about other things, but in the past, it was said that whenever Liao and Xia sent envoys here, they would always ask us to compete with each other, and we would lose every time."
"Now you and Uncle Changzhi can be said to have vented the anger of the people of our Great Zhou."
When Wei Yuan was here, she used to call Xu Changzhi uncle.
Only in front of the Sheng family or her grandmother did she call him 'Xu's brother'.
In this regard, Wei Yuan did remind him that Minglan's surname was Sheng after all, so she still had to follow the etiquette of the Sheng family.
However, Xu Changzhi didn't care, so Minglan naturally didn't care either.
Who made her close to her uncle.
"You brought Mu Ge'er here today, are you going to stay here for a few days?"
Wei Yuan asked.
Minglan nodded and said, "Uncle, you are a busy man now. You can't let your aunt stay here alone, right?"
Wei Yuan said, "Call your mother tomorrow. I have just discussed with your aunt and plan to move the Wei family ancestral hall from Jiangnan to the capital."
"I will build a temple beside the official road 50 miles outside the city to worship the ancestors of the Wei family. Discuss it with your mother."
Minglan smiled and said, "This is a good thing. Uncle, you are now a noble baron, and you are indeed qualified to open a clan temple."
Generally speaking, only the emperor and the princes can establish a clan temple.
Now, Wei Yuan is a loyal and brave baron, and he can barely be considered a "prince".
In the Western Zhou Dynasty, Qin State was the earl at the beginning.
"In addition to building a temple to use as a place to worship ancestors in the future, I also want to recognize Wei Qing, the Great Sima General of the Han Dynasty, as my ancestor, but I don't know if it is appropriate."
Wei Yuan spoke slowly.
Wei Qing's first surname was Zheng.
Since then, many Wei family members have regarded him as their ancestor.
According to folk rumors, after Wei Qing's death, the Wei family was exterminated.
However, there is no clear record of this matter in the history books.
Therefore, fundamentally speaking, it makes sense for Wei Yuan to recognize Wei Qing as his ancestor.
In addition, he had another consideration.
If they recognize Wei Qing as their ancestor, their Wei family will have a higher family lineage.
This will help future generations of the Wei family become generals and prime ministers.
Wei Ruyi said: "Why don't you discuss this matter with the British father before making a decision?"
After all, she is a daughter's family and doesn't know what's going on here.
However, she did hear about some similar things. For example, the former Emperor Taizong, Li Shimin, once recognized Li Er as his ancestor.
But is Li Shimin really a descendant of Li Er?
Wei Yuan said: "I told the teacher about this before. The teacher said that there are some benefits to admitting it and it's harmless. It doesn't matter if you don't admit it."
Wei Ruyi said: "In that case, there is no harm in admitting it."
Wei Yuan said: "Let me think about it again."
Afternoon.
On the way to the envoy's post, Wei Yuan heard a report from his servants, saying that an envoy from the Liao Kingdom had a conflict with the people of Zhou Dynasty in the busy city.
This incident has alarmed Bao Xiaosu, who is also the governor of Kaifeng.
Even Honglu Temple sent people to understand the situation.
Today, people are still in the busy city.
Yelu Xin is rushing there first.
Now, Wei Yuan was fully responsible for the envoys from the two countries. If such an accident happened, he would definitely take care of it, so he rode a horse and rushed there quickly.
Far away, I heard the extremely arrogant voice of the Liao envoy,
"How dare you, a little Zhou person, to cause trouble for me, the general?"
"This general is your honored guest when I am on an envoy to your Kingdom of Zhou. This man blocked my way and spoke harshly to me. Even if I kill him or his daughter, what can you do to me?"
"Zhou people. Humph!"
The people around him were all pointing and talking at the Liao envoy.
"It's so irritating! He obviously wanted to take possession of Old Man Qiu's daughter. He got drunk and took advantage of others on the street, causing their daughter to hit the wall and die. Yet he is still confusing right and wrong here, saying that Old Man Qiu said bad things to him. Facing each other!”
"Are these Liao people really that lawless? In broad daylight, no one will take care of them?"
"How to care? Have you forgotten that a few years ago, a Liao envoy raped a civilian woman, and later killed the civilian woman's husband, and finally left our Zhou Dynasty safe and sound?"
"Why are the Liao people in our Zhou Dynasty so superior to our people in Zhou Dynasty?"
"Okay, just say a few words. If this guy hears it later, you will have no place to reason with me if I come to trouble you again."
"."
The Liao envoy naturally heard these sounds, he laughed and said:
"You Zhou people are all cowards!"
After that, he kicked Old Man Qiu hard, who was squatting on the ground crying.
And his daughter's body was lying under a high wall.
Currently writing, there will be more to come
