274, Chapter 274
Mr. Wei, who secretly guessed in his heart, was stunned for a moment because the traces on his neck disappeared. If he hadn't only drank a little wine today, he might have suspected that something was wrong with his eyes.
"What are you looking at?"
The old man wearing long and wide sleeves let go of his hands, and his face, which was only slightly thin lines at the end of his eyes, showed a little disdain on his face.
"Have you met a woman?"
Woman? No woman is there? Mr. Wei shook his head in confusion.
"laugh."
He looked at the old man who was 50 years old but was younger than him, narrowed his eyes slightly, put his nose in front of his son, and after sniffing, he looked up at Mr. Wei with mocking in his narrowed eyes.
"Why didn't I see it on weekdays? You still have such a special hobby."
Mr. Wei couldn't understand what his father was saying at all. As the old man stood up, he subconsciously raised his sleeves and smelled them, and there was nothing.
"Father, I don't understand what you mean."
"Tsk."
In the dark courtyard, the old man in white dress did not answer, but turned around and sat on the stone bench, slowly pouring a glass of wine for the wine glass in front of him.
Only then did Mr. Wei realize that there were wine and food and a wine pot on the stone table. After pouring the wine, the old man stretched out his chopsticks to eat the food. After chewing, he turned his head and looked at his son.
"Go, go to that tree and catch the insects on it."
Mr. Wei looked over with his father's hand, but saw that he was pointing to the big tree that was cooling down under during the day.
There are no insects at this night.
Seeing Mr. Wei hesitating, Wei Mingyan put down his chopsticks, "Why haven't you gone yet?"
Although he had no angry expression on his face and his movement to put down his chopsticks was not angry, Mr. Wei was forced to be seen by his father, and it seemed like a bucket of cold water was poured on his head.
He didn't care whether there were any insects in the middle of the night, so he quickly arrived under the big tree and searched around the tree with the light of the lanterns hanging on it.
Anyway, he has looked for it, and he can't blame him if he can't find his father... Huh?
Mr. Wei looked at a black bug on the trunk in front of him in shock. It looked like a common vegetable bug, lying fat and fat on the trunk. However, Mr. Wei had never seen a black vegetable bug before, and his whole body was black. Even his back seemed to be glowing under the lantern.
Too strange.
My father said that when he came here to find a bug, he really found a bug. Could it be that he really...
Mr. Wei, who was full of thoughts, said "Is my father really not an ordinary person?", suddenly stopped.
Why can't it be that my father caught the bug and put it here, and then asked him to come and look for it?
If ordinary people were definitely not going to do such boring things, but if it were the old man of their family...
Mr. Wei quietly looked up at his father who was sitting on a stone bench and ate food but did not drink, and remembered the star-watching constellations he had just seen at night when he was staring at the sky and night without even a single star.
Mr. Wei's mouth twitched.
It seems that my father can really do such a thing...
"What are you doing when you're cold?" The old man who had not raised his head seemed to have eyes on his back, and he urged coldly, "Why don't you catch it quickly."
"Yes, that's it."
Mr. Wei was startled by the sudden sound and quickly pinched the black bug with his hands.
He followed Shangguan to deal with floods and encountered many insects, so he naturally would not be afraid. When he pinched two fingers in his hand, Master Wei realized that the black worm would not move. He looked like he was dead.
Suddenly, my heart became more convinced that it was my father who let it go.
When he caught the bug and sent it to the table in front of his father, Mr. Wei asked respectfully, "I wonder what my father wants to do?"
Wei Mingyan glanced at his son coldly, picked up the black worm with chopsticks and threw it into the wine. Under Mr. Wei's shocked gaze, he even poked and inserted it into the wine glass with chopsticks a few times.
Mr. Wei: "...father?"
This is really crazy.
You must be crazy.
"When Zhou State was still alive, Emperor Wuling appointed Zhang's daughter as the imperial concubine. After he was appointed as a concubine, he began to be addicted to the harem and stopped courting for dozens of days."
Wei Mingyan said, with clear joints, holding the wine glass with one hand and chopsticks in the other hand, the already faint voice became even more faint, "In the tenth year of Wuling, the Zhou people were full of grievances, and King Liu rebelled, and eventually destroyed the Zhou Kingdom and proclaimed himself emperor."
Mr. Wei has been reading history books since he was a child, so he naturally knew that this was a story recorded in history books. He was a little confused, "Why did my father talk about these?"
"Emperor Wuling succeeded to the throne for five years, he has always been diligent in his work and loves the people. He never indulged in women. However, after being named a concubine, his temperament changed drastically and he ignored political affairs. Do you know what?"
Mr. Wei was stunned, "Did my father behave like the historical books, thinking that the imperial concubine was ruining the country?"
Slowly turning the chopsticks in the cup, Wei Mingyan raised his eyes and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Why, don't you think so?"
The moon, which had been covered by clouds, gradually revealed, and the yard was covered with moonlight, which became brighter than before. Mr. Wei looked at his father, but strangely discovered that as the moonlight became thicker, the fine lines on the corners of his father's eyes seemed to gradually disappear.
Why, why is this happening...
Such a strange thing made Mr. Wei subconsciously take a step back, looking at the father in front of him, and his back felt cold.
"You are close to the villain, but you want to hide from me, your father."
Under the moonlight, the old man, who seemed to have a little younger face, hooked up at his son, "Come on, tell me, do you think the demise of Zhou State has anything to do with Concubine Zhang?"
Mr. Wei didn't want to tell the truth in his heart, but when he opened his mouth, he seemed to be out of control, and he snored cleanly, "A, I feel that I can't blame a woman for everything. In the end... Emperor Wuling himself has changed his temperament."
"You are so kind to the beauty." What Mr. Wei didn't expect was that his father did not show anger after hearing this, but instead smiled, "It would be better for us father and son to have such an opinion."
He leaned back slightly, and the chopsticks in his hand slowly turned in the cup again, lowering his eyes slightly, and talking about the past in a calm tone, "In the fourth year of Wuling, Zhang was in the position of concubine, possessed a dragon fetus, and had a good relationship with Emperor Wuling. He was just afraid of the empress dowager's power, so he was not up to the forefront."
"In the fifth year of Wuling, Zhang's mother entered the palace and presented a treasure called Daughter Xiang to Zhang. From then on, Emperor Wuling's temperament changed drastically. He stayed in the residence of the imperial concubine day and night, and refused to take a step."
"Since Emperor Wuling did not handle government affairs, Zhang has persuaded him countless times, but it was useless."
The wine in the glass gradually turned into a thick ball of black. Wei Mingyan stopped and threw the chopsticks on the stone table at will, saying in a low voice, "In the sixth year of Wuling, Zhang persuaded Emperor Wuling to go to court to handle government affairs, and committed suicide."
Mr. Wei was so dizzy that he was hit by this huge amount of information. "Yes, it is said in history that Zhang was buried in the sea of fire with Emperor Wuling when the palace was destroyed in the tenth year of Wuling."
"right."
The old man stood up, brought the wine to his son, "It's not wrong in history books. Zhang was indeed in the sea of fire with Emperor Wuling, but it was not written on it. Concubine Zhang was still alive at that time."
"In the past four years after she died, Emperor Wuling still slept with Zhang. In order to ensure that the body was not rotten, she dug up her abdomen, took out her internal organs, and placed them in silk cloth. The imperial concubine's bedroom was placed in constant ice all year round. Emperor Wuling still had husband and wife affairs with her day and night, just like Zhang's lifetime..."
The matter between husband and wife, with a dead person...
Mr. Wei's face turned pale, his throat rolled, and he almost vomited.
How beautiful is Zhang? That's why an emperor wants to die even if she dies...
Wei Mingyan looked at his son who bent down in front of him and dripped. He covered his nose with one hand and held the wine glass with the other hand, and handed it to Mr. Wei lightly.
"Drink him."
Mr. Wei, who had just barely suppressed his disgustedness and straightened his waist, looked at the black ball in the cup: "...drink, drink it?"
"nature."
The old man looked calm, holding the wine glass, but handing it forward again without any rejection, "If you don't want to become Emperor Wuling, you will drink this glass of wine."
Mr. Wei's face was extremely pale in an instant, "Father, why did I become like Emperor Wuling..."
"Today, someone used your daughter's incense to you."
The old man said, completely ignoring the horror on his son's face and still covered his nose with disgust. "This smell can be clearly smelled by the father from ten miles away."
"If a man who smells this fragrance is touched by a woman, he will fall into madness and just want to do husband and wife with her. When the latter comes, whatever the woman says is, even if you ask you to die for her, you will not hesitate."
"Speaking of it," Wei Mingyan shook his head with regret, "Zhang and Emperor Wuling are really affectionate. One of them committed suicide in order not to shake the country, and the other was able to stay awake but did not kill her..."
Mr. Wei didn't even bother to sigh with his father whether the emperor and the imperial concubine hundreds of years ago had true feelings.
He was almost scared to death!!
What is the beauty of a daughter, what is the madness of a woman?
By the way, woman!!
Mr. Wei immediately remembered his father's question about him having contact with women outside. The woman who was selling herself to bury her father and looking pitiful appeared in Mr. Wei's mind in an instant.
At that time, he did have the idea of bringing the woman back.
If it weren't for the shortage of money, maybe the woman had been taken to the mansion now.
Then in the future, will he be like Emperor Wuling, and he will have no way to control himself, and even become a puppet where the woman says anything?
The old man held the wine glass and said again, "Drink."
Mr. Wei didn't care about anything, so he took it and poured wine into his mouth desperately.
Gudong, swallowed it.
Then, his pale face turned pale in an instant.
OK, so bad.
Wei Mingyan glanced at his son who was retching constantly with a blue face and shook his head.
"Thirty years ago, when my mother and I had a child, I was not cautious enough."
