Chapter 186: Desolation
While the Shen Mansion was talking, the Wang family's study was not calm.
Because of her previous worries, Wang Zihan decided to try to see less and ask less questions in the future, and no longer care about her grandfather's plans, just do her duty as Miss Wang's family, but can she really do what she wants?
The night is late, and it is inconvenient to go to bed early on Chinese New Year's Eve because of the observance, because many people are tired today, and Wang Zihan is no exception.
I took off my jewelry, scattered my hair, and was about to go to wash up, when I heard a knock on the door outside.
"Light smoke, go see what's going on." Wang Zihan commanded.
"Yes, miss."
The maid beside him put down the hairpin in her hand and went to open the door.
Qingyan opened the door, looked at the maid standing at the door and asked, "It's so late, what's the matter?" I don't know if Miss is tired and is going to sleep? ”
The maid at the door was reprimanded by Qingyan, shrunk her head before she said, "Sister Qingyan, it's the eldest man who is here, just outside the courtyard gate." ”
Master, Wang Zihan, who was sitting in front of the dresser, looked at him fiercely.
"You come in."
The old man was also stunned when he heard the light smoke, and when he heard the young lady's words, he hurriedly let the maid in.
"You said the eldest master is waiting outside the courtyard?" Wang Zihan stared at the maid and asked.
"Yes, Miss, it was Mother Liu, who was guarding the door, who asked the slave maid to report to Miss." The maid replied cautiously.
Although the young lady treated them more leniently in the past, once they became serious, they were still very afraid.
"Do you know what my uncle is doing when he comes to me so late?" At the same time as asking, Wang Zihan was also pondering in his heart, the eldest uncle treats these juniors relatively coldly on weekdays, and he is a silent person, why did he come back to her niece's yard today, or at night, no matter how she thinks about it, it is unreasonable to think about it, could it be that she followed the eldest uncle to the deserted courtyard and was discovered? Thinking of this, Wang Zihan's heart tightened.
"The slave doesn't know, Mother Liu said that the eldest master has something to tell Miss, please go out for a while."
Wang Zihan was silent for a while, why did the eldest uncle come?
Qingyan walked up to her and whispered, "Miss." Why did the eldest lord come to our yard so late, this is too inappropriate, or the slave maid will go out and tell the eldest lady that she has slept. "Because Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Wang are often-for-tat, they are in the hearts of the people in the second room. The man of the big house is the enemy.
Wang Zihan raised his eyes and glanced at her and replied: "The eldest uncle is the elder, how can the elders not see it?" ”
After speaking, he looked at the maid kneeling on the ground.
"You go to the gate of the courtyard and tell the eldest master, and say that it is getting late, and it is inconvenient to invite your uncle in. I hope to wait a while, and I'll clean up a little and go out immediately. ”
The maid took the order and left.
Wang Zihan hurriedly asked Qingyan to make up for himself.
No matter why the eldest uncle came to her yard, instead of guessing, she should hurry up and meet people, and when she sees people, she naturally knows everything, but for some reason she is still a little nervous in her heart, maybe it's because of the deserted courtyard, she thought.
Wang Liang was draped in a big hat, his hands clasped in front of him, and there was only one customary servant carrying a lantern beside him.
He had heard the maid's reply.
He couldn't say that he wasn't surprised that his father suddenly decided to call him this niece.
This niece has always been brilliant. It is the pride of the second room, and it is also the focus of his father's training. Mrs. often complained in his ear that his father was partial to the second room, he didn't care, his father was partial to the second room, how could he only discuss everything with him, the second room is a relatively good daughter, sooner or later she will get married, what big waves can be turned, even if it is the future queen, there is no strong maiden family to rely on. That's nothing.
Father has always valued him as the eldest son the most, and now letting the second room head of the house is just to better cover him up and facilitate his daily actions. In the future, the entire Wang family will be his, so he never takes his wife's complaints to heart.
But this time. The plan has been frustrated one after another, and my father is calm on the surface, but I am afraid that he is also very sad inside.
After following his father for so many years, he has already figured out his father's character.
The calmer you are on the surface, the less calm you are inside.
This time, he successfully killed Mo Ziting, the son of King Huan, and finally got rid of a big trouble. But my father seemed to be even more sorrowful.
It's just that at this time, why do you want to see his niece?
He couldn't figure out what his father was going to do. When do they need their dependents to be involved?
But my father always had his own intentions in everything he did, so he couldn't say anything, and even in order to avoid more people from finding out, he only brought a henchman to call someone in person.
Wang Liang was pondering his father's intentions, and his nephew Zihan, who was dressed simply and had elegant makeup, came to meet him, although the overall makeup was not as exquisite as during the day, but he still had bright eyes and bright teeth, and was radiant.
"Zihan has seen his uncle, I don't know if my uncle came to his niece's courtyard late at night, did he have anything to order?" Wang Zihan asked in a measured manner.
I have to say that my niece is really good, and she deserves to be a candidate for the queen carefully cultivated by the Wang family. Wang Liang's eyes showed admiration.
"It's your grandfather who wants to see you, come with me." After Wang Liang finished speaking, he turned around and led the way.
Hearing that it was his grandfather's request, Wang Zihan became even more uneasy.
She decided to ignore the things outside the window and just be her own Miss Wang, and her grandfather wanted to see her, which is really ironic, but she was born as a member of the Wang family, and all food and clothing are provided by the Wang family, even if her grandfather wants her to do something for the Wang family, can she not agree?
Thinking of this, her heart was a little sad, outsiders only saw her brilliance as Miss Wang, but no one knew that her greatest wish was actually just to be able to do what she wanted to do and live more freely.
On the way to the study, there was only the sound of soft footsteps, and Wang Meng and his nephew Queen Zihan did not talk again.
Along the way, I didn't meet anyone.
When he arrived at the door of the study, Wang Liang stepped forward and knocked on the door, and said softly: "Father, Zihan is here." ”
"Let her in, you go back to your room and rest." Wang Meng's voice soon came out.
"Yes, father." Wang Liang looked back at Wang Zihan deeply, his eyes were obscure, and then he walked away.
Wang Zihan calmed down, and then pushed the door in.
Wang Meng still maintained the action of leaning on his seat.
Hearing the sound of Wang Zihan coming in, he opened his eyes.
looked at Wang Zihan kindly and said, "Zihan, come and sit." ”
Wang Zihan bowed his head, and Lianbu moved lightly to Wang Meng's nearest chair and sat down gently.
"Zihan, did your grandfather call you so late, did you have a lot of doubts in your heart?" Wang Meng looked at his calm granddaughter, felt a little proud in his heart, and asked with a smile.
"Yes, there are some." Wang Zihan replied honestly.
"Grandfather called you here today because he wanted you to do something."
"But at my grandfather's command." Wang Zihan replied without hesitation. (To be continued.) )
