Chapter 53: The heart is cold

Third Uncle Wen is a man of great ambition and talent. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Mr. Wen only gave birth to a son and a daughter, which is Wen Shaoyang's deceased father, Uncle Wen, and Zhao's strange mother, Wen. This Mrs. Wen is quite virtuous, and she once accepted a good concubine for her husband, and she gave birth to the second master Wen, who is also kind and steady, and is the right-hand man of Master Wen and Uncle Wen, and has always gotten along well with her brothers and sisters.

After Yuan Pei's death, Master Wen remarried another room. This current Mrs. Wen is not as virtuous as her predecessor, she can't tolerate her husband having two hearts, and all the warblers and Yanyan in the inner house have been dismissed, and there are few girls with flat heads and straight faces. Second Master Wen's biological mother couldn't be sent because she had a son, so she couldn't stand it, so she had to go to the nunnery to leave home, only saying that she was praying for Master Wen and his wife. In this way, Mrs. Wen still can't tolerate her, and the money and food sent every month have to be deducted again and again, if it weren't for the fact that Second Master Wen already has a place in the family business, and helps his biological mother from time to time, I am afraid that his biological mother would have been starved to death long ago.

Master Wen values the second son, and he is actually dissatisfied with the stepfamily's approach. However, Mrs. Wen was young and beautiful, and her means were powerful, and she firmly grasped his heart. Every time he wants to get angry, he is always in Mrs. Wen's soft words, big things turn into small things, and small things turn into nothing. Uncle Wen and Second Master Wen were helpless about this.

This Mrs. Wen only has one son, Wen Sanye, so she treats him as a treasure in her palm, and she has done everything he has done since she was a child. The Wen family's million-dollar fortune is naturally what her son deserves. It's just that Uncle Wen, the eldest son, was there at that time, and her idea was not supported by her husband, so she didn't dare to say it clearly. Uncle Wen died of illness two years ago, which completely fueled her ambitions. As for Second Master Wen, he is just a concubine, and he can be a steward in the family business, and he is not taken seriously by her at all.

However, Uncle Wen's son Wen Shaoyang, who has grown up in the past two years, has become more and more intelligent, and is very loved by Master Wen, and has the heart to become the heir in the future. This greatly hindered Mrs. Wen and Third Master Wen, and their mother and son regarded Wen Shaoyang as a thorn in their side and were bent on driving him out of the house.

However, Wen Shaoyang himself is the eldest son and grandson, Uncle Wen is still in the family, and there are many people in the clan who support Wen Shaoyang, not to mention that he also has an aunt who married into the Liao Palace. The Liao Wangfu did not value the eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law, and did not provide much convenience and benefits to the Wen family. However, the King of Liao and the step-concubine of the King of Liao still pay attention to a little identity and decency, and they will not shout everywhere that they hate Zhao Shuo and Wen's husband and wife, and they have to pretend to be a harmonious family with their eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law in public. Those outsiders who didn't know the inside story saw it, but when the Wen family was very decent in the Liao Palace, they naturally looked at her maiden family differently. The Wen family would not be stupid enough to disclose the truth on their own, and low-key to receive the benefits secretly brought by this in-law. With this level of relationship, who doesn't value Shaoyang a few points?

What's more, Mrs. Wen has a bad reputation in the family, and her evaluation is far inferior to that of Yuanpei, and the third master himself has no real talents and skills, except for some people who have a heart, no one will support them. Mrs. Wen and Third Master Wen therefore regarded the Wen family as enemies like Uncle Wen and Wen Shaoyang, and they didn't think that her in-laws would let themselves be stained with anything, knowing that she was not treated well by her in-laws, and often laughed at her in private, wishing she was unlucky.

In this way, the Wang family found Wen Sanye, and it was simply drowsy and met a pillow, and they hit it off.

Wen Sanye thought, anyway, the Wen family is dead, and it is a foregone conclusion that Zhao Shuo will marry someone else, and Zhao Mo is clearly an abandoned son, and it is impossible to bring any benefits to the Wen family. Even if Zhao Shuo has the opportunity to enter the East Palace in the future, he may not be able to fight against the Wang family who helped him a lot. Eating people has a short mouth, not to mention that he has received such a great favor from the Wang family? Without the Wang family, where would there be the glory and wealth of Zhao Shuo at that time? If he turned his face and didn't recognize people, he would definitely be poked in the back.

Besides, men like the new and hate the old. Isn't Master Wen the best example? He has a stepwife, so he naturally favors his younger son. Zhao Shuo has a young and beautiful daughter of the Wang family who can help him, can he still remember the Wen family? When he has a son again, Zhao Mo will naturally not be important. At that time, the Wen family will only be forgotten along with Zhao Mo.

However, if the Wen family can take the opportunity to climb the Wang family, there will be countless benefits in the future. Even if Zhao Shuo blamed them for not protecting Zhao Mo well, the Wang family would protect it and not let the Wen family suffer. A cheap nephew who has no use value, and a backer who can support himself everywhere, Wen Sanye firmly chose the latter.

Master Wen was hesitant, he felt that his youngest son's words were reasonable, but he felt that his family did not need to do that part. Protect Zhao Mo and abide by the agreement reached by his son-in-law Zhao Shuo, if Zhao Shuo can soar in the future, no matter what, he will remember the old feelings of the Wen family. What's more, the Wang family just asked Zhao Shuo to agree to let the heir born by his daughter be the heir, and they didn't say that they would kill Zhao Mo. As long as Zhao Shuo has to ascend to the throne, his son can at least be crowned a king, right?

But if something happened to Zhao Mo in the Wen family, Zhao Shuo would definitely feel dissatisfied in his heart. Even if he has the protection of the Wang family, he can't ensure that when he gains power in the future, he will not be condemned to the Wen family. At that time, his status was unspeakably expensive, could he still be at the mercy of the Wang family everywhere? Even if it was the Wang family, he might not turn his face with Zhao Shuo for the sake of a vassal of the Wen family. The two families of King Wen are not related to each other, but Master Wen can't believe it and doesn't want to agree to the conditions of the Wang family.

At this time, Mrs. Wen interjected, saying that Zhao Shuo would not kill the Wen family no matter what, just because between him and the Wen family, there is not only the relationship between the Wen family and Zhao Mo's mother and son, but also the relationship between the Tang family. Wen's daughter-in-law, Tang Shi, is the daughter of Zhao Shuo's maternal uncle and his cousin. Even if it is in the face of his cousin, Zhao Shuo will be a little more tolerant to the Wen family. As long as the Wen family does not act in a clear place, and does not let Zhao Shuo know that Zhao Mo's death is mixed with them, he will blame him in the future, and he will only blame his stepwife and the Wang family, how can he embarrass the Wen family?

When Mrs. Wen said this, she had completely forgotten the fact that she had regarded the widow and weak grandson of the long house as a thorn in her side for many years, and she was eager to get rid of it quickly, and only regarded the Tang family and Wen Shaoyang as a good shield.

Wen Sanye said again: "The Wang family is powerful, and our Wen family is still somewhat decent in Datong, but it is far from being able to compete with the wealthy families in the capital. If my father refused to agree to the conditions of the Wang family, they would blame us and squeeze us so that we couldn't do business, and even get into trouble with the officials, and the family would be ruined, it would only be a matter of one sentence. When the time comes, who can we find to administer justice? Zhao Shuo's brother-in-law still has to rely on the Wang family to get ahead, so he won't care about us, but our Wen family is really going to be forced to a dead end. Father, do you really want to bury the Wen family's century-old cause for the sake of Zhao Mo's little cub?

Master Wen was a little scared this time, and Third Master Wen repeatedly emphasized that the Wang family is by no means a good one. After a short period of consideration, Master Wen made a decision: "Mo'er is also my own grandson, I really can't do anything to hurt my relatives." If the Wang family really can't tolerate Zhao Mo's existence, they can do it themselves, but there is no need for our Wen family to get involved. In the future, if Zhao Shuo wants to blame, he will also go to find the bad luck of the Xinyue family, and we can't blame it. ”

Although Master Wen rejected his youngest son's proposal, he also invisibly acquiesced and stood by to the Wang family's assassination of Zhao Mo.

When Sanye Wen and Master Wen discussed, they didn't notice that all these words were heard by Zhao Mo. His heart was cold, and he knew that his situation was extremely dangerous. The grandfather was coaxed by the rhetoric of the stepfamily and the youngest son, and he had already given up on him as a grandson. Jingzhong's father can't be relied on, and his stepmother, the Wang family, is even more treacherous and fierce, and he can't wait to get rid of him quickly. The eldest aunt Tang and cousin Wen Shaoyang can be trusted, but they are in a weak position, and it is still difficult to protect themselves, let alone help him. The second uncle is weak, so there is no need to mention it. If you think about it carefully, it is only my grandfather's place, and there is still a trace of vitality.

Although the King of Liao and the step-concubine of the King of Liao are not pleasing to the eye of the eldest son, Zhao Shuo, the chief figure, is in the capital, and the Zhao Mo brothers are just children. If Zhao Mo returns to the Liao Palace, at most he will suffer more, but his life will be fine.

Zhao Mo made up his mind, so he quietly accumulated some gold and silver property for travel expenses, and found a reason to go out of the city to play, so he only took a small servant and rode out on horseback. Halfway through, he threw off his little guy and fled, without eating or drinking on the road, riding at full speed, and in less than a day, he quickly escaped nearly 100 miles.

It's a pity that it fell short.

Since the Wang family had bad intentions towards him, they naturally sent someone to keep an eye on him early, and when they found a good opportunity, they were going to poison him and find Wen Sanye, but they just wanted to find a thug who was also a thug. If Wen Sanye can help solve Zhao Mo, they can push the responsibility on Wen Sanye's head, and attribute Zhao Mo's murder to the evil result of the power struggle within the Wen family, and the Wang family can get out lightly and skillfully. Now that Wen Sanye has just heard back, Zhao Mo is about to flee, obviously the former has leaked the news. They tracked Zhao Mo all the way, and almost lost it, because they were afraid that the night would be long and dreamy, so they ambushed him and tied him back when he was extremely tired at night and wanted to stop his horse to rest.

When the people of the Wang family did these things, they used the banner of the Wen family, so as not to find out to them afterwards. They shackled Zhao Mo, and sent a letter to Wen Sanye, asking him to take a carriage out of the city to pick up people, bent on letting Zhao Mo die in the Wen family.

On this day, it happened that the Qin family's convoy entered the city. What Qin Hanzhen saw was Zhao Mo, who had just been captured by Wen Sanye and returned to the Wen family.

It's just because Wen Sanye took Zhao Mo back according to the wishes of the Wang family, and made it a little more public, so that outsiders could see it. Master Wen felt that he was against his will, and he was afraid of gossiping afterwards, so he didn't do anything to Zhao Mo, but just grounded him and didn't allow him to contact the outside world. In person, Master Wen naturally said that this was for his safety, but Zhao Mo himself knew it. When Wen Shaoyang came to visit, he asked him why he fled suddenly, and Zhao Mo simply told him about it.

Wen Shaoyang was startled, and he was also worried about his cousin's future. He asked Zhao Mo to wait with peace of mind, and he went to discuss countermeasures with his mother Tang. Because he heard that the third master of Qin from the Chengenhou Mansion in the capital came to the capital, the Tang family remembered the friendship between his deceased father Tang Fu and Qin Bai, so he discussed with his son and begged Qin Bai to bring Zhao Mo to the capital and reunite with his father Zhao Shuo.

Tang believes that Zhao Shuo still has a family affection for his eldest son, even if he gives up on him, he will not sit idly by and watch him be killed. With Zhao Shuo's protection, the Wang family always has to think about their daughter and act fearfully, so Zhao Mo will be safe. As for whether the Wang family will embarrass Zhao Mo after passing the door...... There is a place for the children of the clan to live in the capital, and Zhao Mo is a big deal to separate his family.

Wen Shaoyang immediately contacted Zhao Mo and wanted to take him to visit Qin's house, but who knew that he had escaped privately again, which made Wen Sanye furious and openly sent slaves to search. Wen Shaoyang knew that those evil slaves were mixed with people from the Wang family, and he was worried that if they found Zhao Mo, they would immediately harm him, so he took the first step to find his cousin in the city and quietly brought him to the Qin family......
