Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    At this time, the night was deep, and the Su Mansion in Chang'an City seemed relatively quiet and monotonous compared to the noisy and prosperous scene around it.  Except for a few bright lights in a few places, and a few beautiful piano sounds coming from somewhere from time to time, all other places in the house have turned off the lights and are sleeping quietly under the moonlight.  Su Mansion is the residence of Su Wei, the right servant of Shangshu, the Prime Minister of the Sui Dynasty. Su Wei was extremely intelligent and well versed in laws and punishments.  His family is a wealthy family in Wugong County, Jingzhao.  His father Su Chuo was a famous official in the Western Wei Dynasty.  During the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Su Wei took the title of Duke of Meiyang County. The Sui Dynasty was established. Emperor Yang Jian of the Sui Dynasty appointed him as Prince Shaobao, Nayan and Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Later, due to his outstanding achievements, he was appointed as the Minister's Right Servant, and participated in the Council of Ministers.  He was in charge of government affairs and worked together to assist Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty. Together with Zuo Pushe Gao Ying, he was known as the "two prime ministers of the Sui Dynasty" and could be said to be the founding father of the Sui Dynasty.  But when Su Wei was at the peak of his life, that is, in the twelfth year of Emperor Kaihuang's reign in the Sui Dynasty, someone reported that he had become a friend of the official who presided over the election and hired a private person, so he was dismissed from his official title by Emperor Yang Jian of the Sui Dynasty.  Since then, although he has been appointed many times, he has also been dismissed many times.  Su Wei felt that he had already been jealous of Sui Emperor Yang Jian, and that one day he might lose his life if he continued like this. Therefore, in the early years of Renshou, he resumed his position as Shangshu's right servant for less than a month, and made an excuse for being old and inactive.  , resigned from all official positions and stayed at home, thus avoiding being involved in the prince's case.  Now three years have passed, and Su Wei is now over 60 years old. He has entered the age of "sixty and his ears are smooth". He is as calm as water. He reads books at home, plays the piano, occasionally goes to the street to have a drink in a wine shop, and listens to the opinions of the people.  His wife had warned him that he was already a very popular minister, and if he went up any higher, he would have to turn around. He took it for granted. At this time, he had no official position and was light-hearted. He only felt that he was in great trouble.  Take off.  In the study, Su Wei was discussing music rhythm with his son Su Kui.  Su Kui was the only son of Su Wei. He was smart and eloquent when he was young. He could recite poems and books at the age of eight, and he could also ride horses and shoot arrows.  When he was 3 years old, he went to Shangshu Province with his father and competed in horseback archery with Yang Xiong, the king of Ande. Su Kui won and returned with Yang Xiong's horse.  When he was 4 years old, he went to Chinese Studies to debate with many Confucian scholars. His eloquence was impressive and everyone he saw was amazed.  When he got older, he became popular among people and especially took pride in his music.  Su Wei loved his son very much, and the father and son often discussed music together as soon as night fell.  Although Su Wei resigned and stayed at home, he did not ask his son to resign with him and stay at home. Now his son Su Kui still serves as Shangshu and Fang Lang.  "Huh? This tune is wrong, it should be like this." Su Wei glanced at his son who seemed to be absent-minded, put down the music score in his hand, took the guqin in front of him and played it slightly, and said a little angrily.  After hearing this, Su Wei nodded and played it again.  In fact, Su Kui was absent-minded just now, thinking about how to persuade his father to attend the imperial ceremony in a few days.  After listening to his son's playing, Su Wei stroked his white beard and said with a satisfied smile, "Okay, it's getting late. Kui'er should go back and rest." "Father, when we are in the palace today, Your Majesty  It hints to me that I hope you can go to the imperial court the day after tomorrow." Su Kui hesitated and decided to say it. Although Su Kui had persuaded his father to go to Renshou Palace to visit the Holy One a few days ago, and finally said goodbye to the Holy One, he was already a king and a minister.  However, he was rejected by his father, which made him deeply depressed.  Su Kui knew that His Majesty's time was running out, and when he was about to die, he would miss his old brothers who founded the Sui Dynasty side by side with him. Today, his father claimed to be ill and refused to go to Zhuque Gate. His Majesty did not see his father, so he couldn't help but  A little frustrated.  So now he wants to persuade his father again.  Su Wei waved his hand to stop him, "I am determined not to go to the imperial court the day after tomorrow. Don't try to persuade me again." Su Wei knew better than anyone in his heart. Although he was an idler and the capital seemed peaceful, the Holy Emperor  The immortal is about to pass away, and the throne will be left without an owner. Will the man from Yinggufangguan be willing to do so?  A storm is coming in the capital. If he shows up again, he will definitely be involved in the coming storm. It is hard to say whether his old bones can withstand the storm.  "If you have time tomorrow night, we will practice the next song." "Yes! I understand, kid." Su Kui knew his father's temper and had no choice but to get up and leave.  At this time, the butler's voice came from the door, "Master, Mr. Peng is here. He said that he has something urgent and wants to see the master." "Liu Chang?"  ¡¯ Su Wei was stunned for a moment. He had not seen visitors for three years. He knew this. What was he doing to come to see him now?  Su Wei was very puzzled, but no matter what happened, it was better to protect himself wisely. He ordered his son beside him, "Please tell me for me, I have fallen asleep." Su Kui hurried away, and Su Wei was pacing in the room.  No matter what I thought, I couldn't imagine Liu Chang looking for me late at night.Therefore, it's no wonder. After all, he stayed in the mansion and had no idea that layman Liu's arm was chopped off by Yuwen Chengdu in Daxingfang tonight.  After a while, there was a noise at the door of the house.  "Peng Gong, my father has really fallen asleep. Please come back another day." "Su Gong, I heard the sound of the piano just now. You are not asleep yet, why don't you want to see me."  Su Wei was wondering, originally  He planned to disappear, but it seemed that he was not finished. If he did not see him tonight, there would be no peace in the house, so he had to open the door and walk out to see what made this old boy come to see him instead of sleeping with his beautiful concubine in his arms late at night.  "Mr. Su, help me." When Liu Chang saw Su Wei coming over, he pushed Su Kui's arm in front of him and quickly stepped forward to hold Su Wei's hand.  Su Wei winked at Su Kui, and Su Kui retreated.  "Peng Gong, I'm here late at night. It's a long way to welcome you." Su Wei smiled slightly. He hadn't seen him for several years. Unexpectedly, Liu Chang's hair was all white. It seemed that this old boy was still here, but he didn't know that he was in the house.  How many poor girls and maids were tortured.  "Mr. Su, please help me." Liu Chang did not treat Su Wei politely. After all, they were old friends.  Seeing that his old friend was still irritable and unchanging, Su Wei had no choice but to smile and said, "Mr. Peng, please come into the room to talk." The two of them entered the front hall and finished the meal. Su Kui had already ordered someone to bring him two cups of hot water.  Su Wei handed a cup of tea to Liu Chang and said with a smile, "This is mountain tea from Lingnan. It has refreshing and anti-aging effects. I suggest Mr. Peng drink more." Liu Chang didn't want to taste it, so he picked it up directly.  After finishing the glass, he wiped his lips rudely and said angrily, "Mr. Su, your brother and I have been humiliated. Today in the busy city, Quan Zi had his arm cut off and has become a cripple." "Oh, yes.  Who is so bold as to cut off your nephew's arm?" Su Wei asked curiously. He had heard of layman Liu's reputation for a long time, and today's result was also within his expectation. This was also a crime he deserved; it was just that he didn't deserve it.  Who knows who is so bold and dares to touch the layman Liu who even the princes and princes are in awe of.
