Li Yunze just glanced at Huo Zhongru and ignored him.
Don't pay too much attention to it until Huo Qubing and Huo Guang come out.
As the county magistrate continued to introduce, Li Yunze finally heard the name he wanted to hear today.
".Zheng Ji, from this county."
Finally found you!
An irresponsible scumbag, he doesn't even dare to recognize his son when he comes to seek refuge with him. By the time Wei Qing was granted the title of Marquis of Changping, Zheng Ji was probably filled with regret.
Even if he died, their ancestors would not recognize him.
He gave up such a huge opportunity without the foresight. What a fool.
How could Zheng Ji know that his son, who was so free and easy outside, would have such an incredible opportunity? When he saw Li Yunze looking over him, he was so happy that he didn't know how to do it, and he saluted Li Yunze again and again.
Li Yunze nodded with a smile, "You are all pillars of the Han Dynasty, and you must also have family backgrounds."
At this point, he changed the topic, "I wonder if any of your nephews are outstanding? If so, they can join the King's personal guard."
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of Pingyang County officials turned red.
Not to mention that King Zhongshan is about to ascend to the throne of crown prince, even if he is just King of Zhongshan, he is someone they cannot look up to.
To have the opportunity to send my nephew to the King of Zhongshan as a personal attendant, this is really like smoke and fire in the ancestral grave.
Everyone in Pingyang County was anxious to go home and call for help, but the people who came with Li Yunze here were whispering to each other secretly.
"I wonder how many heroes there are in Pingyang County, who can actually be found by the king himself."
"It goes without saying." The carefree Master Yan chuckled, "Of course he is among the nephews of these people."
Everyone rolled their eyes, the king has already figured out the matter, and you still need to tell me!
None of the people around Li Yunze are fools.
Even the bad guys can't get around him.
On the contrary, these people are almost all human beings, capable people who have left their names in the history books.
Li Yunze deliberately took a detour to Pingyang County and condescended to attend the banquet hosted by the county magistrate. He also took the initiative to ask these low-class people to bring his nephew over.
It's so obvious that if they can't see it, then they're really incompetent.
Li Yunze turned a deaf ear and sat behind the desk drinking silently.
Here, Master Fuyan took the initiative to lean forward and said, "Your Majesty, I feel that things went too smoothly this time."
Li Yunze, who was holding the wine glass, glanced at him and frowned, "Sit tight!"
The master's father was unshaven and sat with his legs spread carelessly, while Han Shi's clothes were empty underneath, which was really eye-catching, and he was not a beauty.
Although the master's father Yan was usually unrestrained, when Li Yunze frowned, he would never dare to be unrestrained.
Sitting up quickly, Master Yan bowed his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I feel that something might happen with King Jiaodong."
"Um?"
Li Yunze remained calm and took a sip of wine. "How to cause trouble?"
Of course he also knew the news about Chang'an City. The emperor had made things clear. No one among the courtiers except Zhou Yafu objected. Even the Changle Palace, the largest backer of the King of Jiaodong, expressed implicit support.
Under such circumstances, Li Yunze didn't believe that Wang Quan and Princess Guantao could make a difference.
"this."
The father-in-law knitted his brows and said, "The situation is now complete. The right time, place, and people are all by your side. But I always feel that something is going to happen."
Gongsun Hong next to him sneered, "What do you think? Don't say these depressing words, it will only cause trouble."
The master's father Yan, whose face turned dark, immediately retorted.
Everyone here yelled, "Shut up, don't disturb the great king Yaxing."
Li Yunze, who was thoughtful, was also thinking about what tricks Wang Quan sisters and Princess Guantao could use to make a comeback.
But no matter how I thought about it, even taking into account the fact that they rebelled, I didn't expect any possibility of success.
Just like what Zhufuyan said, the right time, place, and people are all on his side, so why should he turn the tables?
Just rely on your head? Or are you expecting to use witchcraft to make Liu Qi and Queen Mother Dou bow their heads?
If this is really the case, then the King of Zhongshan will start a forum to practice this.
Li Yunze, wearing armor, is a fierce commander on the battlefield.
Li Yunze, who is wearing a python robe, is an unparalleled candidate for the crown prince.
And if he puts on Taoist robes, then Li Yunze will have to slay demons.
Messy and rapid footsteps sounded, and a large group of people poured into the courtyard of Pingyang Houbieyuan.
Most of them were young people, all of them looked nervous but their eyes were full of expectation.
If you can be chosen by the king to follow you, you will have a bright future... ahem, in the future.
Li Yunze said calmly, "Introduce yourself."
Li Yunze wouldn't mind giving them a chance if they had real abilities and good character.
After all, conquering the Three Kingdoms, pacifying the Xiongnu, expanding the Western Region, entering the two rivers, etc., etc., all require a large number of talents to govern the place.
Under the recommendation of the county magistrate, a group of officials' nephews came forward to salute Li Yunze and then introduced themselves.
Someone said that he would be rich in learning, so Li Yunze arranged for Gongsun Hong to take the exam.
Someone said that he was an enemy of a hundred people, so Li Yunze called a group of sergeants to form a formation to face him.
Someone patted his chest and boasted that he was unparalleled in horseback riding and archery. Li Yunze had people arrange a table to light a row of candles, and then had someone lead a horse to let him perform horseback riding and shooting to extinguish the candles.
Someone claimed to be Zhang Liang, so Li Yunze motioned to his father Yan to weigh the food.
Some people said that they were proficient in Han laws, so Li Yunze asked Zhi Du to ask questions on the spot.
someone
After a test, the result was unsatisfactory. Only two or three people barely passed the test and were able to catch their eye.
Several of Zheng Ji's sons also appeared, both literary and military, but unfortunately they all had silver pewter spear heads.
In the words of Zhu Fuyan, if they hold their heads high, they will become a small official like their father.
However, Li Yunze never let go of his brows.
He looked at Zheng Ji calmly, "Are your sons here?"
Zheng Ji's forehead was sweating and his body was trembling slightly. "This, this"
The county magistrate here couldn't bear it anymore, stretched out his hand and tugged on his sleeves and whispered, "Zheng Laosi! Why are you so crazy in front of the king? If there are any nephews, please call him quickly."
Brothers, brothers and uncle Ji, the elders and younger ones are in order.
Since Zheng Ji's name has Ji in it, it basically means that he is the fourth child.
"Yes Yes."
Zheng Ji, who was sweating profusely, responded repeatedly, turned around and left the garden in a slightly embarrassed manner.
Master Fuyan and others secretly winked, it seemed that the person the king was looking for was Zheng Ji's missing son.
Wei Qing in history actually relied on Wei Zifu to rise to prominence, so when recorded in history books of all dynasties, he was first introduced as a relative.
For such heroes who defeated the Huns, it was really outrageous.
Li Yunze was willing to give him a chance, a chance to rise upright with his own abilities.
When Wei Qing was brought over, everyone in Bieyuan had strange expressions on their faces.
Without him, Wei Qing was thin, with a bruised nose and swollen face, and the blood stain on his chin had not completely condensed.
"Big, big king."
With trembling arms, Zheng Ji saluted, "This is a certain son, Wei, Wei Qing."
"Wei Qing? Isn't your surname Zheng?" The master's father Yan's words made Zheng Ji extremely embarrassed and angry. But he is a close minister of the king. How dare he offend him? He can only pretend not to hear.
Hearing Wei Qing's name, Li Yunze sighed and stood up slowly.
Wei Qing, who is famous throughout the ages, actually lived such a miserable life when he was young.
Stepping up to Wei Qing, Li Yunze stood with his hands behind his back and asked, "What's the matter?"
Wei Qing gritted his teeth and lowered his head and said, "When the villain was tending sheep, he encountered the king's cavalry setting up sentries on the hillside. He ordered the villain to return home and gave him copper coins."
Having said this, he looked at the evasive brothers at the side, "Brothers said that the villain lied and refused to herd the sheep, so they took away the copper coins and beat the villain."
"well."
Li Yunze sighed softly, "It's because of me that you have suffered."
After saying that, he looked at Zheng Ji and his sons, "We are born from the same roots, so there is no need to worry about each other."
"Okay, your Majesty is so talented!"
Master Fu Yan immediately clapped his hands and praised.
Gongsun Hong on the side was not to be outdone, "Your Majesty is both civil and military, and is gifted by nature!"
Everyone agreed, fearing that they would be one step slower than others.
Zheng Ji prostrated himself on the ground, his body was trembling and he couldn't even speak.
"Your son."
Li Yunze looked at Wei Qing, who although he was beaten badly, still had a straight back and was not full of resentment when he complained before, "Since you don't cherish me, I will make the decision today, and you will have nothing to do with me from now on."
"If you are born but not nourished, your fingers will be restored. If you are born and nurtured, your head will be restored. If you are nourished before you are born, you will never forget it."
His eyes fell on Wei Qing. Li Yunze took out a gold dagger inlaid with large gems and handed it over, asking in detail, "Are you willing?"
Wei Qing took a deep breath and his eyes became determined.
He took two steps forward and saluted Zheng Jizhong.
After three kowtows, Wei Qing took the golden dagger and raised his left hand.
The sharp sword flashed, and a tail finger fell to the ground.
Wei Qing, who was sweating on his forehead, endured the severe pain and saluted Zheng Ji again, and said tremblingly, "Ah, I will repay you the kindness of my life."
The Han family governs the country with filial piety. Even if someone is abused, it is impossible to sever ties with just a word.
Cutting off a finger and returning it is the most basic operation.
Li Yunze glanced at him, and someone quickly stepped forward to help Wei Qing and went to apply medicine and bandage the wound.
Looking at the shivering Zheng Ji, Li Yunze sighed softly.
"You, you have a Qilin son in your family and you don't know it. The opportunity to honor your ancestors came to you, but you turned it away. The Zheng family can only serve as officials for three generations at most, and there will be no future prospects."
"As for Wei Qing, I will take him to a good school and train him. I will give him the opportunity to become a marquis immediately and his name will go down in history. However, when he worships his ancestors, he will be worshiping the ancestors of the Wei family and has nothing to do with your Zheng family. connection."
After hearing this, Zheng Ji couldn't help crying anymore, tears streaming down his face.
