Wei Xuan asked, "Uncle asked to send troops to east Zhejiang to quell the rebellion. How do you deal with it?"

Wei Fufeng said: "There is a natural disaster in Fujian, so the dispatch of troops can only be postponed, or the court will ask the court to send troops."

Wei Xuan said: "The Guanzhong vassal state is arrogant, and the imperial court cannot take care of itself, so it is impossible to send troops."

Wei Fufeng replied: "Then we can only postpone the dispatch of troops. Dong Chang has 100,000 troops. Most of our military forces cannot go south."

At this time, the outside manager respectfully sent a message: "Brother, Fu'an."

Wei Xuan and Wei Fufeng stood up, and then saw Wei Zhaodu wearing a robe and walked in in a spirited state.

Wei Xuan raised his greeting, and Wei Fufeng bent down and said, "Grandson Fufeng pays homage to uncle."

"It's good that Fufeng is here, sit down." Wei Zhaodu said gently and kindly.

Wei Zhaodu sat in the seat, Wei Xuan and Wei Zhaodu got off.

Wei Zhaodu looked at Wei Fufeng and said, "I am anxious and still have a good time. Although life is comfortable, I am absent-minded."

Wei Fufeng said gently: "Grandfather, now Wang Xingyu is threatening the court and may enter Chang'an at any time. His grandson believes that his grandfather cannot rush back."

Wei Zhaodu was slightly stunned and then said, "I have been deeply grateful to you. I cannot fear the thief and refuse to return. We still discuss the important matter."

Wei Fufeng nodded and said, "My uncle's intention to go south was that my grandson resisted. When he first heard about it, my grandson returned from Longyou. In order to avoid the Fengxiang army blocking it in Chang'an, my grandson could only take the risk of going to Zhuge Liang to the former road of Qishan, hiding all the way, and walking through the Fengxiang army territory, which was physically and mentally exhausted."

Wei Zhaodu said righteously: "Grandpa knows your hardships in entrepreneurship, and my grandfather's rebellious scales. I will never want Wei to be the culprit of subverting the Tang Dynasty. You can be more peaceful and can be the second Liu Bei, but in the Tang Dynasty, you can't be like Dong Chang."

Wei Fufeng nodded, Wei Zhaodu's face was gentle and said, "It is in the southwest of the country, and hereditary Yongzhen. In fact, it is possible to advance and retreat with evidence. You can inherit Yongzhen. It is the glory of the Wei family and it is also conducive to tribute to the Central Plains in the future."

Wei Fufeng was slightly stunned and said, "Grandpa is not optimistic about the court."

Wei Zhaodu said dejectedly: "A family, there is no need to talk about it. After experiencing the Hedong Army War and the Fengxiang Army War, the foundation is already shallow and difficult to operate. There are many internal conflicts within the court. The kings and nobles take self-interest and refuse to contribute to the court. The foreign vassals and princes will not be defeated. It is difficult to revive it."

Wei Fufeng nodded and said, "Grandpa and grandson are also difficult. The foundation is shallow. The inner people's hearts are superficial. They rely on decentralization to restrain them. Not to mention foreign enemies, now there are natural disasters on the coast of Fujian and Lingnan, and timely assistance is needed. Tanzhou's military and food have been opened."

Wei Zhaodu said: "I know what you mean? The tribute and tax cannot be increased."

Wei Fufeng said: "Your Majesty the Emperor gave a marriage, and no matter how difficult it was, the grandson would have to be rewarded. The tribute from Lingnan and Fujian was 30% higher, and the princess was also allowed to give filial piety to the empress."

Wei Zhaodu thought something, nodded and said, "The establishment of Langfeng Mansion is divided into several subordinates. What do you think?"

Wei Fufeng replied: "Under the rule of his grandson, he was unwilling to spread all the Jiedushi, but he should strengthen checks and balances, and planned to establish the Zhongfushi in charge of the military and political affairs of the two states. For example, Fuzhou and Jianzhou established the Zhongfushi, and cancel the Observation Envoy. Guangzhou and Duanzhou established the Zhongfushi, and cancel the Lingnan Jiedushi."

Wei Zhaodu looked calm and said, "You want the government order to come from Langfeng Mansion to lay the humanistic foundation for the hereditary Yongzhen."

Wei Fufeng nodded and said, "In addition, Ganzhou, Tingzhou and Shaozhou, the three prefectures established Luling Jiedushi. My grandfather served as Jiedushi and my grandfather served as Jiedushi. However, he could only command the Three Thousand Ya Army, and the local military and political affairs were directly under Langfeng Prefecture."

Wei Zhaodu said: "Luling? In ancient times, Jiangxi once divided Yuzhang County and Luling County in north and south. Zhong Chuan, the governor of Zhennan, was located in Hongzhou, Yuzhang County. Now the name of Luling mainly refers to Jizhou, Jiangxi."

Wei Fufeng smiled and said, "Ganzhou was born in Luling County in ancient times. My uncle could not leave Junzhou. I asked my uncle to serve as a marching Sima."

Wei Zhaodu nodded and reached mutual acceptance.

Wei Fufeng said, "Grandpa, grandson is confused and asks for advice."

"Let me tell you." Wei Zhaodu responded.

Wei Fufeng said: "The grandson has a twelve uncle whom I met a few years ago. My grandfather wanted to serve as the prefect of Jiangling. Because of his strangeness, his grandson refused cautiously, he agreed to serve as the magistrate of Dangyang County. He said that if the county magistrate is competent, he can only be promoted to the prefect of the prefect."

Wei Zhaodu frowned and his face turned gloomy.

Wei Fufeng said again: "The grandson later asked the aunt, and the aunt was also unfamiliar with the twelfth uncle, but he casually said that his uncle didn't like it, but he didn't know why he didn't like it. Could it be that the person who made his uncle disliked was inappropriate in virtue?"

"Your twelve uncle has a good character and no mistakes in virtue." Wei Xuan said.

Wei Fufeng said righteously: "Father, children must be cautious in employing people, especially Jingzhou is related to the success or failure of guarding. Children respect their uncle's virtues. Grandpa and you are gentlemen. People who can make gentlemen dislike each other must figure it out."

Wei Xuan had no choice but to turn his head and look at Wei Zhaodu.

Wei Zhaodu hesitated for a moment and said, "The past should not be mentioned, but since it involves employing people, I will say that this matter is related to Wei Xuan."

"Ah? It has something to do with me?" Wei Xuan was shocked.

Wei Zhaodu nodded and said, "Among your nephews, I like you the most. When you were sixteen years old, your aunt went to celebrate your birthday and met your wife. She was very fond of her and said goodbye at the banquet.

But because your origin was inconsistent, there was a legitimate birth in the branch of the Wei family, who was forty years old and had no son, and he intended to adopt him. Your aunt asked me to inquire about it and reached an adoption intention."

Wei Xuan was stunned and said, "I was the adopted person back then?"

Wei Zhaodu nodded and said, "I have achieved adoption intention. Your aunt can't wait to propose marriage and has made you the legitimate daughter of the Qingyang Marquis' Mansion."

Wei Xuan frowned, and Wei Zhaodu continued: "The Twelve Lang was fourteen years old and was studying with you in the mansion. Somehow he obtained the information of adoption and ran back to his family alone.

Your father brought the Twelve Lang to Chang'an and went to see the Twelve Lang who was satisfied with the Twelve Lang."

Wei Fufeng glanced at his father, and Wei Xuan's face was calm.

Wei Zhaodu continued: "I was very annoyed when your father came to see me later. Your father said, "You are his most promising son, how can you adopt him to others?"

Wei Xuan nodded and said, "It should be adopted by Twelve Langs."

Wei Fufeng immediately realized that it was inappropriate and said, "Father, adoption is for marriage, and the twelfth uncle's approach is for breaking the marriage."

"Are you not together for your father and your mother?" Wei Xuan whispered.

Wei Fufeng was speechless, and Wei Zhaodu said calmly: "You can be together because your wife refuses to regret the marriage and insists on marrying you. Although this matter is finally fulfilled, it has caused me to suffer the stain on cheating. You don't care, and I feel very ashamed."

Wei Xuan stood up and worshiped respectfully: "My nephew knew his mistake, and his nephew also had official duties. Please ask my uncle to talk to Fufeng."

Wei Zhaodu said: "There have been many years since this incident. Few people know about it. Don't tell me about it, go."

"My nephew should pay attention." Wei Xuan responded in a low voice.

Wei Fufeng had already stood up and said respectfully: "My father, my son congratulated me on giving the title of Duke. From then on, the nobles were passed down from generation to generation and historical books are famous."

Wei Xuan turned around and nodded, and said gently: "I'm a good person to serve the elders, I want to be quiet for my father."

"Yes." Wei Fufeng responded, Wei Xuan bowed respectfully to Wei Zhaodu and turned around and left.

Wei Zhaodu said, "Sit down."

Wei Fufeng sat down, and Wei Zhaodu said again: "Your father is loyal and honest, he feels frustrated."

"My father is a gentleman. Looking at my father, you can see my uncle's demeanor. Has my uncle ever been through Guizhou? Before my father, Guizhou was poor, depressed and dilapidated." Wei Fufeng said.

Wei Zhaodu nodded and said, "Guizhou is full of prosperity and is a blessing in troubled times. Your father is a good minister, but unfortunately it is difficult to make a big deal. He should not be able to be the prime minister's talent, and he can only be in charge of the government and benefit the people."

"How many people have been famous in history that can benefit the people." Wei Fufeng said proudly.

Wei Zhaodu smiled and nodded, saying, "You are a versatile person, especially good at using people, can judge the situation and be a hero."

Wei Fufeng shook his head and whispered: "Grandpa, it's hard to use people, and it's hard to use people, and he is undecided, like walking on thin ice. His grandson realized that his temperament was becoming more and more suspicious."

Wei Zhaodu said: "It is too cold to be high. In this chaotic world, etiquette and morality collapse, and people's hearts have lost their moral constraints. It is normal for you to use the wrong person and cause the consequences of betrayal."

Wei Fufeng nodded, and Wei Zhaodu said again: "Twelve Lang, can you use it?"

Wei Fufeng replied: "What my grandson promises cannot be ignored. Past things cannot be used as reasons for refusal, but grandson needs checks and balances."

Wei Zhaodu nodded, and Wei Fufeng said again: "I heard that my grandson was resistant to the princess who gave me marriage. After seeing Qingxue, Qingxue strongly advocated accepting it, which made my grandson's mentality change from resistance to considering gains and losses."

"Lin Qingxue is a good wife." Wei Zhaodu said gently.

Wei Fufeng whispered: "The grandson and Qingxue share weal and woe, is the only relative in his heart who can be fully trusted. If you say disrespectful words, your father cannot let your grandson feel at ease, because your father is weak in his ears, lacks decisions on major issues, and cannot see the sinister hearts of people."

Wei Zhaodu nodded calmly and said, "What are your considerations for gains and losses?"

Wei Fufeng was convinced when he heard this, and he was worthy of being an old minister who had been in the officialdom for decades.

He replied: "The rule of grandson was troubled. The merchants led by the second uncle used their status to conduct business and refused to pay taxes. The grandson planned to use the eunuchs who were dowed by His Highness the Princess to collect and manage tariffs."

Wei Zhaodu said calmly: "Eunuchs are a greedy group. Once they lose control, they will harm the center."

Wei Fufeng said: "At present, what grandson fears most is that their relatives are too big. The second uncle will be able to win the food and business tax in a few years. If the grandson loses the business tax, it will be like the court falling into a difficult situation."

Wei Zhaodu said: "You want to use my husband's name to suppress the custody."

Wei Fufeng said: "If the grandfather is unwilling to lose his reputation, his grandson can break up and take action. Now he breaks up, it will be better than the second uncle's ambition in the future. He uses the wealthy to buy officials, raise elites, and force his grandson to add up."

Wei Zhaodu frowned and said, "Erlang has no great ambitions, he is just a slave to protect his wealth."
