Chapter 410 Zhongdao flees, the Wellcome brothers are deceived
When Wei Ji came to Wei Ning's room in person, he was told that Wei Ning had been away from home for three days. Wei Ji was stunned on the spot and then began to be at a loss. After some cross-examination, Wei Ji learned from his servant that it was Wei Ning who used property to bribe his servant to take care of him. Then he quietly left the Wei Mansion without the knowledge of the gods and ghosts.
After knowing the whole story, Wei Ji did not dare to neglect and hurriedly went to report to Yang Fan.
After hearing this, Yang Fan played with the ring in his hand and smiled: "It seems that Wei Ning can't stand the loneliness at home. Have you gone out to look for flowers and ask about willows?"
Wei Ji was sweating coldly, but he didn't dare to reach out to wipe it. He bent his body and replied: "I don't know this!"
"Forget it!" After considering it, Yang Fan gave up working on an unknown soldier like Wei Ning and said immediately: "It is said that the leaders and generals of the battalions came to discuss matters. Wei Ning left, so he left."
Judging from Yang Fan's tone that was completely indifferent but slightly chilling, Wei Ji and others could guess that Yang Fan would not give up on this matter. However, Yang Fan was only targeting Wei Ning, but he did not mention Wei Ji, Wei Zi, and Wei Zhen. It can be seen that no matter where Wei Ning escaped, Yang Fan would capture him.
Just as Yang Fan summoned his civil and military officials to discuss matters, Wei Ning rushed to the outside of Chang'an City.
As soon as Wei Ning arrived at the city gate, he saw a young man with a young man over ten years old waiting. When the young man saw Wei Ning, he happily gave him a bear hug and said with a smile: "Zhongdao, why did you think of coming to Chang'an?"
Wei Ning looked at the powerful young man Kong Wu in front of him and smiled bitterly: "General Yuan, I am here to join you! General Zhong is here too!"
The young man replied shyly, "General Zhong, pay homage to Brother Zhongdao."
It turns out that the young man and the young man are the largest family in the Chang'an area. The two direct descendants of the Wei family are called Wei Kang, and the brother is called Yuan Jiang. He is more than eight feet tall and is extremely burly. He is usually good at dancing guns and sticks. He is considered to be a rare hero in the Chang'an area. His younger brother is called Wei Dan, and the brother is called Zhong Jiang. Although he is young, he is also literary. Especially the good handwriting is well-known in the Sili area.
Wei Kang and Wei Dan are two outstanding children of the Wei family. Wei Ning is also from a Hedong clan. He met the Wei brothers since childhood, and some special hobbies are similar to Wei Kang. Therefore, after a while, Wei Kang and Wei Ning became close friends.
Wei Kang was generous. Seeing that Wei Ning wanted to speak but stopped, he asked jokingly: "Zhongdao, why are you so frowning? Could it be that Brother Wei Ji drove you out of the house?"
Wei Ning looked sad and replied, "Oh, the past is unbearable to look back on..."
Seeing that Wei Ning's mother-in-law seemed to want to tell her, but she didn't dare to tell her. Wei Kang thought that Wei Ning was afraid that there were many people at this city gate, so she was inconvenient to tell her. Then he led Wei Ning to find a tavern.
After the three of them sat down, Wei Kang asked again: "Zhongdao, I have the same brothers and sisters. What do you mean, but it doesn't matter. There are no outsiders here, so there is no need to be so restrained!"
Wei Dan was good at writing and writing. Although he was not proficient in strategy, he also knew how to observe his words and expressions. He also said: "What the eldest brother said is extreme. Where did Brother Zhongdao get angry? You might as well say it out loud, so we brothers can also give advice for our brother!"
Wei Ning picked up the wine in front of him and drank it all in one gulp. Then he told the news that Yang Fan led his troops into Hedong and their Wei family defected. During this period, of course, he did not forget to explain it to himself, and he even added fuel to the fire and touched Yang Fan.
The Wei brothers were confused when they heard it, which was a bit different from what they heard from the people on weekdays.
Wei Kang frowned and said, "I didn't expect that Yang Piqi's mind was so narrow. Zhong said, "You just offended him in words a few years ago. Now that he has gained power, he actually asked your Wei family to give all your wealth and your life to let the Wei family go. What's the difference between this and those bandits and evil bandits?"
Wei Kang was filled with righteous indignation and cursing, but Wei Dan just frowned slightly, looked at Wei Ning with a profound look, and said softly: "Brother, you come to Chang'an to find our brothers. Are you asking us to fund you some money so that you can leave Sili? Go far away?"
Wei Kang waved his hand and said, "Second brother, what are you saying? I have a close relationship with Zhongdao. At this time, he is in trouble. How could I stand by and ignore it?"
Wei Ning seemed to be strangled, and he didn't know how to answer Wei Dan's words for a while. Fortunately, Wei Kang said that he avoided the temporary embarrassment.
This matter is very important. Seeing that Wei Dan was so obsessed with his brother, he felt inexplicably anxious. If he told him bluntly, it would definitely lose Wei Kang's face. Wei Dan had to explain tactfully: "How can I not know the relationship between the eldest brother and Brother Zhongdao? But Yang Piqi led his army to quell the rebellion, so we and other rural people could not point fingers at him, right? If the major affairs of Yang Piqi were delayed, then my Wei family would be in trouble!"
Wei Dan's words were secretly pointed, and Wei Kang was just a little stunned, and understood what Wei Dan said. As long as it involved family interests, Wei Kang would not be able to force the matter. He kept silent at the moment. The scene suddenly became deserted and the atmosphere was so dull that it was embarrassing.
Judging from the performance of the Wei brothers, Wei Ning guessed that they did not want to interfere in this matter. This made Wei Ning anxious, but he was helpless. Suddenly, a light of inspiration flashed through Wei Ning's mind, and Wei Ning immediately had an idea.
Wei Ning first got up and walked to the door, opened the door and window, checked the situation outside, and confirmed that no one noticed it, he closed the doors and windows of the private room again and whispered to the Wei brothers: "Don't you know that Yang Fan is the enemy of our aristocratic family? Look, when he went to a place, the aristocratic family in another place was destined to be uprooted, and the accumulation of generations or even dozens of generations will fall into Yang Fan's pocket. Are you willing to watch Yang Fan check your aristocratic family like this?"
Wei Kang replied without thinking: "Of course I don't want it. Who would like to give all his belongings to others?"
But Wei Dan was stunned. He didn't know what Wei Ning wanted to express, and he didn't say anything at the moment, just waited for the following words.
Wei Ning whispered: "My brother handed over all the money and land in the family to Yang Fan, but now, what did he get? He has nothing, just stayed beside Yang Fan for his own use. You said that Yang Fan was not willing to give him a small county magistrate. What would he mean by saying that?"
Wei Kang frowned and said, "Does he plan to cheat the family's money first, and then kick it away and let it fend for itself?"
At this time, Wei Dan finally understood Wei Ning's sinister intentions and hurriedly said, "Yang Piqi has always been a talented person. How could he do that?"
After hearing Wei Dan's words, Wei Kang showed hesitation again. It can be seen that Wei Dan had a considerable share in his heart. Wei Ning knew that if he could not convince Wei Dan, then he would be futile when he came to Chang'an. Even these two people could not convince them, how could he convince the head of the Wei family, Wei Duan?
Wei Ning sighed and said, "General Zhong, although Yang Fan said to the public that he was a person of merit, look at how many people under Yang Fan are from a noble family? Except for the two brothers Xun Yu and Xun You, which of the other officials in the Yang family are not from a poor family? You said, my aristocratic family has been well-educated in poetry and books since childhood, so take this talent as an example, which one is not several times better than those poor families? But did Yang Fan use it? This is just a means for him to weaken our aristocratic family. Zhong Jiang really wants to watch your Wei family follow the footsteps of my Wei family?"
Dozens of capable people beside Yang Fan passed through Wei Dan's mind. As expected, he was as Wei Ning said. He was hesitant at the moment and didn't know what to do.
Wei Ning knew that there was a chance when he saw Wei Dan's appearance. He continued: "If we don't talk about it, let's talk about the Sima family in Hanoi County. The Sima family can be said to be a wealthy family in our territory, right? Sima Yi was even more a genius and defeated the general under Yang Fan's command, Wen Pin. But what happened later? After Yang Fan took Huai County, Sima Fang just continued to be his prefect of Hanoi, and Sima Yi didn't know where he went?"
Wei Ning's words made Wei Dan wonder how to refute it. However, he felt that Wei Ning had something to hide from them.
Seeing that his second brother didn't say anything, Wei Kang thought he was moved by Wei Ning's words. He immediately decided to say, "Zhongdao's words are reasonable, but this matter is very important. We still need to ask our father for instructions. Why not go to see our father with us? How about it?"
Wei Ning said in surprise: "Ning, I can't find it!"
Soon, the Wei Kang brothers took Wei Ning to the door of a very large-scale mansion in Chang'an City. This is the mansion of the Wei family, the first wealthy family in Chang'an.
At this time, Wei Duanzheng and his friend Jin Shang were drinking and talking in the living room. They were so uncomfortable. Suddenly, they heard from the servants that their two sons were asking for a meeting outside the hall with Wei Ning, a son of the Hedong Wei family.
Wei Duan didn't understand why, but he also asked people to call them.
As soon as the Wei Kang brothers entered the living room, they hurriedly paid homage to Wei Duan and Jin Shang, "Children pay homage to my father, and to my uncle,"
Jin Shang first looked at Wei Kang with a tiger-backed and dragon waist, then looked at Wei Dan with a literary atmosphere, and smiled enviously: "Xu Fu, your two or two Qilin children are really getting more and more amazing!"
Jin Shang has a straightforward personality and is particularly foolish and loyal to Liu. He was just appointed as the governor of Yanzhou by the emperor. However, Yanzhou is now Cao Cao's back garden. Jin Shang had no choice but to turn to Chang'an and come to ask his old friend Wei Duan for help.
The name of Jin Shang, as a child of the Sili family, is well-known and can be seen clearly. It is precisely the appearance of Jin Shang that gave Wei Ning a glimmer of hope.
After receiving praise from old friends, Wei Duan quickly replied modestly: "Yuanxiu, these two kids cannot praise them. Once you praise them, your tail will be overwhelmed."
