Chapter 484: The mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings
The news made Wang Jingyan uneasy.
She knows very well that whether Wei Ji really misses her son or just uses this as an excuse to enter Weiyang, it will not have much impact on Wang Mang and herself. It's even a dispensable thing.
What sensitized her was the Queen Mother's change in attitude. Although the old woman is nearly eighty years old, she is not confused. She doesn't change her mind for no reason.
There must be a reason for her change!
Someone is doing a "PR" on her!
Don't think about it, it must be the Wei family. The Wei family can do the work of the Queen Mother, and they must have used a lot of means and a lot of "relationships". Will there be Wang Yu in this?
This is what Wang Jingyan is most worried about. Because, if this is the case, then this son of his own is dying according to "history"!
"How did you and the Queen Mother decide?" Wang Jingyan thought again and again and asked softly.
"Bu Tian!" Wang Mang explained.
"Huh!" Wang Jingyan chuckled lightly and dismissed. She couldn't say anything more, though. At this time, divination is the best and most commonly used method when encountering something difficult to decide.
"Yan'er, how many times have I told you! Fear the gods! I am afraid that your illness is caused by your disobedience. Wang Mang said very seriously.
"The fear of the gods and divination are two different things!" Wang Jingyan couldn't help but argue.
What gods? At this time, Buddhism had not yet taken shape, and there was no legend of the Jade Emperor or anything. At this time, the so-called gods were the general "heavens", or the so-called "immortals" of their own imagination, and they didn't even have a name.
"How can it be okay? If the heart is not sincere and does not respect the gods, the heavens will not bless you. Wang Mang knew that Wang Jingyan had just recovered, and he didn't want to argue too much with her.
"Then go and prepare! How many days do you have to fast? Wang Jingyan didn't bother to give Wang Mang a lesson, since he wanted to toss, let him toss himself.
She is now concerned about her son, and she really wants to talk to Wang Yu to see if he is "trapped" in this matter.
Wang Mang left, and Wang Jingyan ordered the maid to invite Wang Yu.
After a while, Wang Yu didn't come, and two costumed beauties came in.
One is Lu Yan, the wife he married for his son, and the other is his son Xinna's concubine, Wei Xuan's daughter Wei Wan.
The two beauties respectfully saluted Wang Jingyan, and came to her affectionately to "serve".
"Isn't Yu'er there?" Wang Jingyan guessed and asked, and began to enjoy the service of the two "daughters-in-law" comfortably.
"Back to my mother, my husband hasn't returned home yet." Lu Yan gently beat Wang Jingyan's legs, replied softly, and lowered her eyebrows.
Wang Jingyan still has a good impression of this daughter-in-law. The Lu family was originally a wealthy family in Nanyang, and when she chose a wife for Yu'er, her family was in Xindu, and there was an endless stream of wealthy families from the surrounding families who came to propose marriage.
Wang Jingyan didn't know what to do, and a name post for her relatives made her eyes shine.
It was a neat and dignified post, and it turned out to be quite similar to his own handwriting. What surprised her even more was that the name of this girl from the Lu family was also "Yan"!
Subsequently, she made a special trip to Lu's house to visit and saw the girl with her own eyes. Lu Yan, who has a calm temperament and dignified manners, suddenly grabbed her heart!
Lu Yan married into the family, was knowledgeable and gentle, which made her feel very satisfied.
What makes her even more satisfied is that this daughter-in-law is now five months pregnant!
"Yan'er, you tell your mother, what is Yu'er doing these days? Who have you seen? Wang Jingyan pulled Lu Yan, who was already bulging in her lower abdomen, into her arms and comforted her softly.
"My husband has added a new servant, and he has more business trips in the palace, and he always goes out early and returns late every day. You also know that he can't shirk some socials, and the people he has made recently should all be colleagues in the palace. Lu Yan replied obediently.
"He comes back late every day?" Wang Jingyan frowned, her son's promotion was already within her expectations, and this kind of celebration and entertainment in officialdom is indeed commonplace.
Lu Yan didn't answer, but turned her head to look at Wei Wan beside her.
Wei Wan is also smart and clever, so she hurriedly stepped forward, "Xianggong Xinshi, there is indeed more entertainment, but the concubine takes good care of her every day, please rest assured that my mother is relieved." ”
Wei Wan's "rest assured" made Wang Jingyan really feel a little uneasy. What she is most worried about is that Yu'er has a private relationship with the Wei family. These days, Lu Yan's health is not convenient, and Yu'er is afraid that she stays in this Wei Wan's room every night.
The wind blows on her pillow every night, and she is really worried about her son.
"Oh, has anyone come to the Zhongshan Mansion recently?" Wang Jingyan didn't think much about it at this time, and asked directly.
Wei Wan shook her head slightly, but smiled silently.
"Mother, no one from the Wei family has ever come, but there is an elder brother from the concubine's family who came to congratulate you." Lu Yan didn't know what Wang Jingyan meant, so she blurted out.
"Your brother? But Lu Kuan? Wang Jingyan was really anxious.
"Exactly, does Mother recognize it? I never heard my brother mention that his mother was unwell recently, so he didn't let him in to see An. Lu Yan explained softly.
"I've just heard of it." Wang Jingyan replied casually, and she began to think about countermeasures at this time.
This time she "went back", but she "reviewed" the history of the Western Han Dynasty again, especially Wang Jingyan's "history"!
In the past, I only knew that Wang Yu was because he opposed Wang Mang to isolate Wei's participation in politics, and was "killed by Wang Mang".
And this time, she figured out that Wang Yu was involved in the "Lu Kuan case" and went to prison and died in prison!
The so-called Lu Kuan case is because Lu Kuan secretly discussed with Wang Yu, planning to take advantage of Wang Mang's "weakness" of believing in gods and ghosts to create a "bloody smear" incident to scare and scare Wang Mang and force him to agree to Wei's entry into the palace!
"Where is your brother now? Please come to me! And Yu'er, go find him quickly, and let him come to see me too! Thinking of this, Wang Jingyan was really anxious.
"Mother, what's wrong?" Seeing Wang Jingyan's eager expression, Lu Yan was also a little nervous.
"Don't ask so much, hurry up and find it!" Wang Jingyan was too lazy to explain, and she couldn't explain it clearly to the two of them, just urging.
The two beauties didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly went out to find someone.
However, there was no response until midnight. Wang Jingyan is really anxious!
hurriedly went to find Wang Mang, but was told that Wang Mang was summoned by the Queen Mother and entered the palace!
The mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings! Wang Jingyan has an intuition that something big is going to happen tonight!
In her eagerness, she didn't care about any "etiquette", and rushed directly to her son's east chamber. Unexpectedly, Lu Yan did not rest and was accompanying a young man to "tea party"!
"Mother! How did you get here! Lu Yan was startled when she saw Wang Jingyan coming over in person.
Wang Jingyan was silent, glanced at the young man, and had already guessed the approximate.
Lu Yan had never seen Wang Jingyan with such an expression, so she quickly introduced to her, "Mother, this is my brother Lu Kuan, I have just found you." Seeing that the time is too late, I dare not disturb your rest, and I am ready to let him stay at home temporarily, and see you tomorrow! ”
Lu Kuan had already heard of this Mrs. Wang, and when he heard that she wanted to see him, he was secretly strange, so he didn't dare to go rashly to see him, so he went to his sister to inquire first. Unexpectedly, this Mrs. Wang actually came to the door in the middle of the night!
