Chapter 90: Ancestors and Grandchildren Discuss with Each Other
The room fell into silence again, and the faces of the three were reflected in the flickering candle flame. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThe wind outside is not small, although it does not have the wanton whistling of the east wind, but the sound of the occasional blowing of tree branches also exudes a unique and terrifying atmosphere. Aunt Hui and Aunt Lan outside the door stood upright, and it could be seen from their slight shaking that the temperature outside the house was not as warm as during the day.
Mrs. Yang's face was expressionless, but her eyes were not as calm as she appeared. Wu Shun looked at the two of them, his beautiful face was full of anxiety. Helan Minzhi knew that his mother was very smart and skillful, but for such a long time, she was just a family woman. This is a man's society, and politics has always been a man's politics, and she is not used to and has never done these things, and she has never even thought about it.
For the imperial power, anyone is afraid. Even Helan Minzhi, as a traverser, never had the slightest idea of wanting to be unfavorable to the imperial power of this feudal society.
Suddenly hearing about the things in the palace, involving imperial power, everyone will panic, and Wu Shun naturally can't avoid it.
But fortunately, Helan Minzhi's accumulation for such a long time has finally shown its effect. Neither Wu Shun nor Mrs. Yang treated him as a child.
At the first moment of encountering something, Wu Shun's eyes were not looking at his mother, but at her son. With this one look, Helan Minzhi knew that his efforts for so many years had not been in vain. I have become my mother's support in this world.
Raised his head and looked into Wu Shun's eyes. He smiled slightly, then gave her a determined look.
A woman obeys her father at home, her husband when she marries, and her husband obeys her son when she dies. In the Tang Dynasty when Wu Zetian had not yet become the empress, although the atmosphere was open enough, the idea of three subordinates was still deep-rooted for ordinary women.
"Auntie, don't worry, this matter can't be rushed." As he spoke, he handed her the water cup in front of Wu Shun, and watched her take a sip of water before he began to speak.
"I wonder if my grandmother and the eldest grandson have ever interacted?"
Mrs. Yang replied without thinking: "If you say that you are unsociable, it is not quite right." But that was a few decades ago, when it was still a former dynasty. I don't know how many years I haven't been able to do it lately. ”
Helan Minzhi nodded lightly. Come to think of it, Wu Shi Tong died early, the martial arts family has been defeated for a long time, and the eldest grandson Wuji is rising again, so naturally there is no contact. That's even simpler, and he sipped his saliva: "Since that's the case, then there's nothing to think about, let's go to my uncle's house tomorrow to visit!" ”
Hearing this, Mrs. Yang frowned: "Zhi'er may not know much about the recent court situation. Your uncle is getting older and older, and he used to participate in the two dynasties on time, but now he only participates in the first dynasty. As for the affairs of Guozijian, he gradually let go, and he may not have so much influence in the court. ”
"Speaking of which, the son is not filial, and he has not visited his uncle's house for so long. He's not in good health lately? ”
"Not really. But he is already in his old age, and he has read books all his life, and if he says something unpleasant, he has long been old and dizzy. Where can you still be like young people? Your cousins now have things to do in the court, and it's impossible to want them to go higher. Therefore, your uncle doesn't have that heart. I heard that he had already been begging for bones last year, but it was really difficult for the court to pick out someone with the same qualifications as him to take charge of the national prison, so it is impossible for the saint to be in charge today. Mrs. Yang explained carefully. But listening to Helan Minzhi's ears, Yang Xijiu is already old and can't take care of things. The subtext is that she has also been out for so many years, and she has no relatives to rely on except for Yang Xijiu.
This is somewhat different from his previous plan, and it is quite a bit of a roof leak that coincides with overnight rain.
Frowning and thinking about it carefully, Helan Minzhi asked, "I wonder if my grandmother knows which elder of the Hongnong Yang family is in charge now?" ”
A big family can naturally only have one voice, and this voice is the patriarch of the major families. Maybe he is not the biggest official in the entire family, but in this family, he must be the one who speaks the most.
"I know this, now the Hongnong Yang family is your cousin, and now Yang Sixun, the prince of Guanguo, is in charge. After Gongren's death, your uncle and I will be left in our generation. Mrs. Yang sighed softly, and Helan Minzhi and Wu Shun hurriedly relieved.
However, the problem is that he doesn't know what this Yang Sixun is, and even the Yang Gongren just mentioned is not very clear. I didn't take a history major, and even if I studied history, I might not be able to memorize so much.
"I wonder if you know about my cousin?"
"This..."
Mrs. Yang's slumping and spitting already speaks for itself. She didn't know much about the younger generation of the Yang family. But knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is the only way to win all battles. Over the years, the attitude of the Yang family has been elusive, I'm afraid it was this cousin's order!
Anyway, this must be a smart enough smart person.
"Grandmother, we have no choice but to go to Yang's house first. Moreover, I can only go to my uncle's house first. As for my cousin, I'm going to invite you when you get to the house! ”
"This..."Mrs. Yang still hesitated.
"Captain Eldest Sun, we have never been in contact. Suddenly removing the grass and startling the snake will not have any effect at all. My cousin has been there for so many years, except for the New Year's holiday, the female relatives of the family have come to visit, and there is not much movement. We have no choice but my uncle. Helan Minzhi said very seriously.
Until now, both Mrs. Yang and Wu Zetian have expectations for the eldest grandson Wuji. They all still have expectations, and the eldest grandson Wuji, who is also from the Guanlong aristocracy, should support them. Because this is much better than Queen Wang, who was born in the seven families and five surnames of the Shandong Shi family.
But Helan Minzhi couldn't be clearer. The eldest grandson Wuji would never agree to Wu Zetian becoming the empress. As for the reason, he has thought about it since he crossed over, but he has not figured out what it is for.
How could the head of the Guanlong aristocracy, Changsun Wuji, support Queen Wang, who came out of the Shandong Shi clan, so as to resist Wu Meiniang, who was born in the Guanlong aristocracy.
If you want to say that Wu Meiniang once served the first emperor, she can't wait for the current majesty or something. After so many years in the political arena, a figure who is already at the top can still say such things? Helan Minzhi didn't believe it.
The eldest grandson Wuji is not a staunch Confucian scholar, and this reason is not valid at all. But he couldn't say these words to Mrs. Yang. The current situation is far more difficult than imagined, neither Wu Zetian, nor Mrs. Yang, nor even Gao Zong have imagined what they will face.
