Shuangjiao

The domineering, doting girl from the Wen family was ridiculed by him?

Although Wen Xueqing would come to listen on weekdays, she never made a sound, and kept her presence to a minimum, and waited until the assembly was over before discussing with the Fujun.

"It turned out to be the son-in-law, the official offended..." The official was secretly startled, and immediately leaned over to apologize.

He stood up, feeling uneasy, the lord and the young masters were all there, and he didn't know if he would hold his grudge and give him small shoes behind his back...

"Your Excellency is right, you should be considerate." Wen Xueqing's tone was as usual.

Out of the corner of his eye, the official glanced quietly at the Fu Jun and the other young masters.

Wen Jiming took a step forward, Lang Lang said: "Your Excellency is right, whether to give food and grass, and how much to give, still need to be carefully considered."

Seeing that the time is not too early, no further discussion will yield results.Wen Guanghe told them to go back and think about how to deal with it, and the meeting broke up.

After going on and on all day, Wen Guanghe was exhausted, so he didn't want to keep a few children for further discussion.Waved them to go back and rest quickly.

Wen Jiming sent Wen Xueqing back to her room.

Wen Jiming asked her: "Zhenzhen, what do you think?"

Wen Xueqing did not reply immediately.

"What?" Wen Jiming smiled lightly, "I was hit when I participated for the first time, so what should I do in the future?"

"No, I just can't figure it out." Wen Xueqing mumbled.

"There's nothing I don't understand. The king of Wei is powerful, and Da Sima avoids his edge and doesn't want to get involved." Wen Jiming raised his eyelashes, his eyes filled with a smile, "Do you think so?"

Wen Xueqing nodded: "Yes, I always think it's too late for Da Sima to get sick."

"The crown prince is the son of Empress Wei, and the concubine is the daughter of the king of Wei. The crown prince is sick in bed, and His Majesty doesn't care about anything." Wen Jiming shrugged, "The crown prince is basically..."

- useless.

Wen Jiming didn't say anything, but Wen Xueqing understood what he meant.

It doesn't matter whether the prince exists or not, so there is no need to mention it.

"I'll have to think about it for a while later, it's not difficult." Wen Jiming nodded, "The third minister is very powerful, and he is very stingy with the canonization of official titles, but the King of Wei has been promoted step by step. The five northern states are all in the palm of your hand."

"I see. I still need to learn more, and I hope brother will teach me more." Wen Xueqing exhaled softly.

She couldn't change any of these, and raising it rashly would make people think it was childish nonsense.

"Don't worry, take your time." Wen Jiming smiled, "Besides, you will go to the Shenhu in the future, and these things will not bother you, just leave it to me."

His own sister, who has reached the age of youth, looks like a flower. He watched her grow up, and hoped that she would be happy and healthy all her life, and not be involved in those silent and treacherous waves.

The emperor did nothing, and the princes were allowed to separate themselves.Nowadays, bandits are frequent in the south, and King Zhao, who failed to seize the throne, used this to develop his power and control the three southern states.

In the north there is the ambitious Wei Miao, in the south there is the covetous King Zhao, and Linzhou is caught between the two. If it weren't for the Wen family's toughness and firmness, insisting that the emperor Luoyang, the emperor's capital, be orthodox, coupled with the solidarity and support of the Linzhou aristocratic family, Linzhou would be in the middle. The state has long been reduced to the first front in the battle between the two parties.

However, it's almost gone now.

The prince is hanging on by the treasures of heaven and earth. As for Da Sima, he is said to be seriously ill, but no one has actually seen him.

If Da Sima is gone, who else can be promoted?Who else is holding Wei Miao hostage?

This is what the Wen family is most afraid of. If Wei Miao coerces the emperor to order the princes, will the Wen family follow or not?

===

After much deliberation, Linzhou decided to allocate part of the food and grass to support both sides at the same time.At the same time, two sons of the Wen family were sent to escort them separately.

At this point, the Wen family sent two sons to go to the two sides, called Lilian, but actually they were investigating.

There was a banquet and drinking in the front yard, Princess Lekang and Wen Xueqing ate half of the banquet, and then went to the backyard.

The servants came and went in the backyard, and the Wen family's sister-in-law called the youngest son's nurse over in a panic, and asked her to take away the crying child.

Second Sister-in-law Wen had just embraced a fat boy at the beginning of the year. Half a year later, she was white and fat. When she heard a voice, she would quickly turn her head away, drooling at the corners of her mouth and echoing indistinctly.

Wen Dalang likes to hang around this little brother the most. When he hears that he is going to leave, he hugs him tightly and does not let go. Anyone who dares to step forward and pull him will cry.

"Da Lang is good, it's time to go to bed. When I wake up, my brother is still there." The wet nurse patiently coaxed Da Lang.

Da Lang's eyes were swollen from crying: "No, you are lying! Uncle Six said that my brother is leaving! He will never come back!"

Princess Lekang's expression changed: "Who said that? Where's Liulang?!"

When Da Lang saw Wen Xueqing, he ran over and hugged her leg: "Auntie, is what Uncle Six said true? My brother is leaving and will never come back..."

Although they are uncles and nephews, there is not much difference in age between Da Lang and Wen Liulang. Since childhood, Wen Xueqing took the lead, Wen Liulang followed Da Lang, and the three of them messed around together.

Compared with Wen Liulang, who has already learned the truth in school, Dalang is just getting started now. His husband will teach the Book of Songs and be literate.

Dalang is still at the age of ignorance, but Wen Liulang is already a young adult, and he has a vague concept of many things.

He probably understands the departure from his brother.Maybe he had a faint feeling, but he didn't say it out, and only mentioned a few words after Da Lang.

"Uncle Six told you?" Princess Lekang strode over, passed Wen Xueqing, knelt down and asked Da Lang.

Mrs. Wen's complexion is also very ugly.

She can't care about Xiao Lang, and my son at this age likes to play with Xiao Lang, so it's fine on weekdays, but now that something is going on at home, Xiao Lang doesn't help, and actually makes trouble!

The sisters-in-law looked at each other helplessly.

As a last resort, we need to separate, and no one is willing.

Wen Xueqing lowered her eyes, she understood better than Wen Liulang that if the situation of these two elder brothers was not good, they would probably separate from the Wen family and join King Zhao and King Wei respectively.

This is a choice made by the Wen family. Fearing that the world situation will be unstable, they will book separately.He just wanted to win a chance after the situation changed—after all, the Wen family was originally a sparsely populated family, and they couldn't put all their eggs in one basket.

"Second brother will come back," Wen Xueqing said decisively, "Second sister-in-law don't leave."

"Zhenzhen!" Princess Lekang looked serious, "If you feel tired, go back and rest first."

This is to keep her out of it.

Liu Lang was still eating during the banquet.

Since his brother wanted to leave, he naturally had to stay longer.

Wen Xueqing took a deep breath and said, "Auntie, don't go to Liu Lang, this is my idea, and I asked Liu Lang to do it."

"What did you say? Are you sure you did this?" Princess Lekang stared at her.

"Yes." Wen Xueqing raised her neck and did not evade, "I have been going to the study to listen in. I knew that brother was leaving, but I didn't want to, so I let Liu Lang do it."

Princess Lekang was silent for a while, and she immediately slapped her when she raised her hand.

Wen Xueqing remained motionless.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the sisters-in-law quickly stopped her.

"Auntie must!"

"Zhenzhen, apologize quickly and say you are wrong!"

Princess Lekang's eyes were red, and she shook off the hand that was holding her: "Is it because I am too indulgent with you? This is the decision of the entire Wen family! No one can change it!"

"I don't think it's necessary." Wen Xueqing twitched her lips, half of her face was hot, "I don't want everyone to be separated, isn't that okay?"

Princess Lekang almost shouted: "No! Not even me!"

When she wanted to fight, everyone around her pulled her, and some pulled Wen Xueqing, telling her to apologize quickly and obey Princess Lekang.The two children were frightened by this situation, hiccupped suddenly and started howling.

The whole backyard was in chaos.

The farewell banquet in the front yard was also disturbed, and all the men from the Wen family rushed over.

The eldest uncle stepped forward first, and embraced Princess Lekang: "Your Highness, calm down, Zhenzhen is just a child, don't be angry."

"Still young?" Princess Lekang looked at him in disbelief, "She's about to get married and still young?!"

The uncle persuaded slowly: "I know what Your Highness means, Zhenzhen... Zhenzhen will be fine, she will understand."

Wen Xueqing made such a scene today that it was really absurd.No one in the Wen family wants to do this.

Wen Jiming pulled Wen Xueqing closer, almost half forcing her to kneel down: "Apologize, admit your mistake to Auntie!"

"Today is Zhenzhen's fault. She made auntie angry." Wen Jiming knelt down, "I will apologize for her first, and I hope auntie will not be angry."

Wen Liulang was also frightened by the situation, ran to Wen Xueqing, and looked at Princess Lekang timidly: "Auntie, don't be angry, don't hit sister."

After he finished speaking, he knelt down: "I admit my mistake on behalf of Sister."

"I……"

Everyone is around her, every pair of eyes is watching her.

"I'm not wrong," she opened her eyes wide to keep the tears from falling, she gritted her teeth and continued to speak, shaking her lips, "I think it's arousing suspicion since it's escorting food and grass, and dragging the family along. The fifth brother is still in Luoyang, and now he's gone. Having passed the imperial examination and being deeply trusted by His Majesty, if we...we rashly do something else...or both sides...send people, wouldn't it be good?"

At the end, Wen Xueqing was a little incoherent.

But everyone present understood what she meant.

Wen Guanghe pondered, and asked the servant to bring a cup of tea to moisten her throat: "Go on."

Wen Xueqing continued to kneel and said: "I heard that King Wei is suspicious and King Zhao is cunning. They are people who will not be easily trusted by others. If they fall on both sides, it will be self-defeating. Linzhou has always been the place of our Wen family, and no one can do it. Shaken. Even if the officials sent by His Majesty, there are few who can intervene. In addition to being self-sufficient, Linzhou still has the spare power to provide support. Father's soldiers are strong, and brother is capable of civil and martial arts, so why should he be forced by others?"
