As early as the strange sound sounded before, the lights in the house had already turned on, and they entered the study through the window. However, it was not uncommon for the father to summon the child into the study late at night, but he did not hear any panic noise.

Inside the room, there was a strange silence for a while, except for the sound of Wang Mang sipping the wine in his cup softly. And the glass of wine in front of Wang Mu was never touched.

The sound of footsteps gradually sounded from far and near, small and urgent.

"Father, what do you do to summon the child?"

There was a soft knock at the door, and a young man's respectful voice rang out outside the door.

"Come in."

Wang Mang raised his voice slightly, and a hint of uncertainty appeared on his face.

The door was carefully pushed open, and a young man and a woman stood in the doorway.

The man looked to be in his twenties, with a look of respect on his face. Although Mu'er's words had not been long in coming, he had come in a hurry late at night, but he had already changed out of his pajamas and put on his daily clothes. It's just that I'm afraid it's still a little too late in time, and I didn't wear the crown.

Standing beside him was a woman who looked younger than him. Although she is already dressed as a woman, she looks at her face and has only just passed the age of a girl. Her face is not powdered, she looks delicate and lovely, with a bit of innocent and immature atmosphere, while her lower abdomen is slightly bulging, and she is obviously pregnant.

This is Wang Mang's eldest son Wang Yu, and Wang Yu's wife Lu Yan.

The moment he pushed open the door, seeing Lu Kuan, who was grabbed by Han Zhuo's hair and pressed to the ground, Wang Yu's face instantly changed color, and his hands couldn't help but tremble.

Even if it was only for a short moment, Wang Mang could see it clearly, and his eyes showed fear.

"Sure enough......"

Wang Mang sighed bitterly and shook his head slightly.

His own son really knew about it.

And daughter-in-law Lu Yan, when she saw her brother, couldn't help but snort, her expression was only confused in addition to shock.

"Sit."

Wang Mang stretched out his hand, pointed to the two empty seats in front of him, and watched his son and his wife sit in front of him.

After Wang Yu sat down, he no longer raised his head, his eyes were only fixed on the wine utensils on the table, and his whole body tensed nervously. But Lu Yan was far less calm than him, clenching a pair of fists tightly, his eyes would look low at Wang Mang from below, and then he would cautiously glance at his brother Lu Kuan, who was still pressed to the ground.

Since the two of them arrived in the study, Lu Kuan's face had been as dead as ashes, and he closed his eyes tightly.

"Yu'er, how old are you this year?" After a moment of silence, Wang Mang asked.

"Child...... Next month it will be twenty-eight. ”

"Twenty-eight...... After the age of twenty-eight, even young people are not counted......" Wang Mang came to such a strange sentence for no reason, then smiled bitterly, and shook his head vigorously, as if he wanted to throw the thought out of his mind just now.

He stretched out his hand and pointed at Mu'er beside Wang Yu: "Your cousin is only fourteen years old this year, and in terms of age, he is only half of yours." Can you ...... with his talent But it's too far off. ”

Wang Yu raised his head, looked at Wang Mu beside him, and quickly lowered his head.

"It's for Wei's business, right?" Wang Mang picked up the wine glass and took a sip: "You persuaded me last month that you should not obstruct the Son of Heaven from meeting the Empress Dowager Wei, and you also want me to return to the Wei family." ”

Wang Yu did not move and did not speak.

Wang Mang continued: "In your eyes, this should be the so-called loyalty. Son of Heaven, Son of Heaven...... In order to be loyal to the Son of Heaven, you must not be filial to your father. The so-called loyalty and filial piety since ancient times cannot be both, in your heart, you must feel that what you think, say, and do is out of righteousness, right? ”

"Child...... Children are not unfilial! ”

Wang Yu hoarsely spoke, "Son of Heaven...... After all, it will be the Son of Heaven. Father has always insisted on going his own way, whether it is the Son of Heaven or the Wei family, how can there be no resentment in his heart? When one day, the Son of Heaven is in power, how can he not miss his biological mother? And what will you think of your father's obstruction of his meeting with his biological mother? My royal family is a ...... What will happen to you? Father! The child is not unfilial, but for the sake of my royal family! ”

"So, that's what you've come up with?" Wang Mang sneered: "Do you think that strange forces can scare me?" Do you think that if Lu Kuan hadn't been caught by me, I would have panicked without knowing what had happened, and then I would have listened to you in a few words? ”

"......" Wang Yu lowered his head and said nothing, but Lu Yan on the side widened his eyes, looked at his husband deadly, and almost screamed.

But looking at Wang Mang's face, the scream was suppressed in her throat.

"But there's at least one thing I'm happy with." Wang Mang pointed at Lu Kuan and said to Wang Yu: "At least, you didn't blindly deny it and clear up your relationship with him." ”

"Skimming the ...... Does it work? Wang Yu laughed miserably, raised his head and looked at his father: "You shouldn't forget, how did the second brother die?" ”

Wang Mang's expression remained unchanged, but Lu Kuan, who was on the side, suddenly tightened his whole body, and the horror on his face was even worse.

Although he is not a member of the Wang family, it is very clear about the death of Wang Mang's second son and Wang Yu's younger brother Wang Shu.

It should be said that everyone in the world knows it very well.

Lu Kuan raised his head and looked at Wang Yu in panic, not knowing why he wanted to mention that incident. He desperately glared, hoping that Wang Yu would keep his mouth shut.

But Wang Yu ignored Lu Kuan's eyes. He still had that bleak smile on his face, and in his mind, he remembered the incident four years ago.
