Mr. Su was too absorbed in his thoughts. Seeing this, the boy beside Mr. Su said carefully: "Master, your children and grandchildren will be blessed, so don't worry."
Su Xiang shook his head. When he heard that Prince Hao had given Wen Wan 5% of Guangyuan Bank's shares as tuition, he was confused. Prince Hao is not one of those short-sighted people. At such a high cost, he has to sacrifice his face to get Wen Wan to agree to send a grandson to the princess's mansion, so that the grandson can study with Mr. Fang and Ling Chang Mingrui.
" If Prince Hao really just wants to cultivate a promising grandson, and is sacrificing his face and spending huge sums of money, Su Xiang doesn't believe it. Although Fang Shitong was a great Confucian at that time, he was not unique. There were many people who were better than him.
Mr. Su suspected that Prince Hao had ulterior motives. What is the real plot, and what is there in Wenwan's mansion that makes Prince Hao spend such a large amount of money. After pondering for a lot of time, I had a vague guess in my mind. So the real reason why Wen Wan was called here this time was to test Wen Wan. This time I accidentally asked Wen Wan about her attitude towards several princes. Wen Wan was lukewarm towards several princes. However, the old prime minister tried it out and proved that Wen Wan had other plans.
Wenwan¡¯s plan should be on Lingcheng. The more the old prime minister thought about it, the more this happened. Ling Chang's status is neither high nor low, not humble but not eye-catching either. If Wen Wan had this intention and the emperor also had this intention, it would be easy to explain. Prince Hao was also a trusted official of the emperor, so he must have spied something out. Although no one can predict what will happen in the future, with gentle methods and the emperor's acquiescence, the probability of success is still high.
This makes us understand Prince Hao¡¯s intention. The child is now sent to the princess's mansion to study with three children. If it succeeds, the affection that has grown up since childhood will be no small matter. If Ling Chang is in charge, he must be a confidant.
¡°If Su Yi also goes in to study, he will have a good relationship with Lingchen. If Ling Chang ascends to the throne, Su Yi's career will be bright in the future. If Ling Chang can't take the position, it will be like a child. This is a matter of profit only and no risk.
The old prime minister felt depressed again when he thought of this. He didn't have the leverage to make Wen Wan fall in love, and Wen Wan's attitude also proved that she would never allow anyone else to study in the Princess's mansion if she didn't have the chips to fall in love. The old prime minister sighed heavily when he thought of this. He really didn't expect it. Wen Wan would tell him directly that the annual cost of sending his grandson to Prince Hao was more than 200,000 yuan. Moreover, it is directly stated that she is a person who cannot afford to do anything early. In other words, she will not do anything that is not beneficial to her. All the words he wanted to pray as an elder were blocked.
The old prime minister can¡¯t think of a good way.
Wen Wan also looked depressed on the way back. She just couldn't understand. The emperor was only 46 years old this year and in his prime. Why can't all those princes hold back and start a battle to win the heir apparent so quickly? We are all tired of living, but we still feel that life is too boring and we have to fight and fight to get excited!
Xia Yao sighed slightly, "Princess. The news I received was that someone said that the emperor was suffering from a serious illness. In the past two yearsit was originally empty talk, but then it was said by an old lady doctor who caused Hugh's death, and it was said by Someone who is interested has found out the history of the emperor, so"
Wenwan pouted, that¡¯s why. Wen Wan gloated, "I'll tell you. Why have you been so weird lately? It turns out it's like this. Haha, those guys are just waiting for bad luck."
Xia Yao smiled. She didn¡¯t know how long the emperor had left. But it will definitely not be two years, twenty years is possible. These princes who prematurely participate in the fight for the heirloom will definitely be unlucky as a result. But for them, the longer the emperor lives, the better.
Xia Ying said with a gloomy face: "They have no eyes. They can't see that the emperor's face is rosy and looks so good now, so maybe in the past two years. I think this is a rumor deliberately spread by someone. I don't know. What's the conspiracy?"
Wen Wan¡¯s eyebrows trembled as she thought something was wrong with the emperor. Sitting upright: "Xia Ying, tell me, what happened to the emperor's uncle? Why do I feel that something has been wrong with the emperor's uncle since the beginning of last year. Tell me, what happened? It can't be the emperor's uncle's body, Well, it¡¯s really not good.¡±
Xia Ying wants to vomit blood. Forget it if others are suspicious. But the princess also had doubts, but she couldn't help but make people depressed to the point of vomiting blood: "Your Majesty is not doing well. Princess, please don't scare yourself." Why don't you want to order something good? I just want to think about such bad things.
Wen Wan murmured: "You can't blame me. I was bitten by a snake once and was afraid of well ropes for ten years. When the emperor's uncle suddenly fainted, the imperial doctor said that there was no cure, which scared half of my life. Later, he still Such a thing happened, and now that I heard such rumors, and the emperor's uncle's recent behavior is indeed strange, I can't help but wonder what you are hiding from me. "The more I think about it, the more I feel something is wrong. . What big thing was he hiding?
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ??Nods: "The emperor's behavior over the past year is indeed abnormal. Xia Ying, are you hiding something from me? Since the emperor's health is fine, there are other major events. You must know that it is best to tell the princess. Save the princess from worrying."
Xia Ying breathed out: "Princess, the emperor is very good, but there is indeed a big thing. But I can't say, because this is just my guess, I am not sure. If the princess wants to know, ask the emperor directly." She In fact, I noticed it two years ago. But the princess didn't ask, and the emperor didn't tell. It¡¯s not easy for her to mention. In fact, this is because the princess doesn't want to think too much. Otherwise, with the intelligence of the princess, she would have guessed it long ago.
After hearing Xia Ying¡¯s words, Wen Wan looked solemn. I went back to the study and listed all the weird things the emperor had done these days. Then connect them together, and then think of what Bai Shinian said, why the emperor did not agree to send troops. The emperor exercised his body, practiced riding and shooting, and modified his carriage to prevent Bai Shinian from sending troops to attack the Manchus.
Wen Wan finally came up with four words: the imperial commander personally conquers.
After Wen Wan guessed it, all her strength convulsed. The whole person slumped on the chair. Impossible, how could the emperor's uncle think of conquering the emperor himself? But all the doubts have revealed this point, and except for this reason, nothing else makes sense.
After a long time, Wen Wan finally breathed a sigh of relief and returned to normal. Let Xia Ying come in, saying that Wen Wan has not been so panicked for a long time, and today she was frightened by her own guess. : "Is this what you are guessing?" The emperor wanted to be a holy king because of the imperial commander's personal expedition. If the time comes, I will definitely do something that will leave a mark in history. Therefore, this matter is most likely what she guessed.
Xia Ying knew it. Once it is revealed, the princess will definitely guess it. Nod now. After hearing this, Wen Wan's legs felt a little weak, and she held the handle of the chair to prepare herself: "According to your judgment, there is a possibility that the emperor's uncle will change his mind." In fact, Wen Wan has already determined that the emperor has made up his mind and there is no choice. Changed.
Xia Ying shook his head: "I don't know, but according to my guess, the probability is very small." Once the emperor decides on something. Don¡¯t give up until you reach your goal. This is the same as gentleness. Therefore, it is basically impossible to get the emperor to give up this idea.
Wen Wan also understands this truth. Let Xia Ying go down and stay in the study. How long has it been since I felt so uneasy? It's been about ten years. Wen Wan smiled bitterly, she couldn't help but make herself uneasy! If the emperor personally went to the border town to fight. There must be a prince overseeing the country in the capital. Will the emperor trust the prince to supervise the country? That is impossible. The Third Prince will definitely be used. The fifth prince, and even the princes below.
She was not worried about how the princes would fight, she was just worried that the emperor would be worried about several princes. If you let her stay in the capital, she should really worry. In history, when the emperor went to war, problems often occurred with the princes who stayed behind to supervise the country. No matter how capable she is, she can't resist thousands of troops. What will she do with the child then? Hey, why can't the emperor let people live in peace for two days? What you want to do with your reputation is not the same as letting the people below conquer you. Why do you want to go out on your own? Hey, man. What an animal that women can¡¯t figure out!
Xia Yao said angrily: "Since you know, why didn't you tell us earlier? You don't have to catch us off guard." Xia Yao never thought that the emperor would personally lead the expedition. It was not a rare thing in the past dynasties for the emperor to conduct military expeditions in person. But conducting military expeditions in person is also a dangerous job. If anything happens to the emperor, the princess will fall into a wolf's den. If it were ten or twenty years at night, I wouldn't be afraid, but at this critical moment.
Xia Ying said nothing, lowering his head to accept Xia Yao's angry scolding. In fact, I'm still glad that I didn't say it earlier. If I said it earlier, I would have worried earlier. The princess could not change the emperor's decision.
Seeing Xia Ying pretending to be dead again, Xia Yao wished she was dying. This woman, I really don¡¯t know how she looks, she is so mean-spirited. He didn't even say a word about such a big thing.
Wenwan pondered in the room for a long time. In the end, I didn't come up with a good idea. But if the emperor really wants her to stay in the capital. Looking at several princes. The child must be sent away. The child was with her, and when the time came, these people would take the child and threaten her. But he was passive everywhere.
Xia Ying saw Wen Wan coming out and said with a sad face: "Princess, it is a good thing for the emperor to lead the expedition in person"
Before Xia Ying finished speaking, Wen Wan roared: "A good thing? What good thing? What good thing are you telling me? You go to a border town at such an old age just to leave your name in history. Don't you know how dangerous this is? Once There is something tell me, what is this good thing? "
When the emperor is here, the gentle life will be comfortable. The emperor is not here, so he has to fight in person. What Wen Wan will face in the capital will be another bloody storm. As long as Wen Wan thinks about the situation she is facing, she wants to scold the emperor for being too full to make trouble. Xia Ying also said that this is a good thing, not to hit the muzzle.
??Xia Ying had never seen Wen Wan lose such a temper before, and was stunned immediately. I didn't dare to say anything after turning around.
When Xia Yao found out, she comforted Wen Wan: "Princess, nothing will happen. It's great, we just leave the capital."
Wen Wan smiled bitterly: "Do you think it is possible to leave the capital?" If it was possible, she would naturally be willing to take her child to Haikou. But Wen Wan knew very well that the emperor would never let her leave the capital. Otherwise, he would not have kept the secret from her for such a long time. Wen Wan really felt that the front was extremely thrilling. If it were before, she might not be so scared. But now, Wen Wan is really scared. She also has two children to protect. Once the emperor was in chaos, the prince and the other princes who stayed behind would keep a close eye on her. Then she won't be able to move. If there is an emergency, does the child still need to accompany her?
Xia Yao's eyes dimmed, but she quickly said firmly: "If there is really civil strife in the capital, Princess, we can just run away."
Wen Wan shook his head: "Escape? If the emperor's uncle didn't entrust him with an important task, I can leave at any time. But if the emperor's uncle wants me to watch a few princes in the capital. Do you think I can still leave? Besides, , Where can the child still run?¡±
The more Wen Wan thought about it, the more frightened she became, so she simply locked herself in the study again.
Xia Ying was a little worried and said: "In the past, even when facing life and death, the princess never acted like this. Now she looks like this, Xia Yao, what should I do?"
Xia Yao said angrily: "What can we do? Just eat it cold!"
Xia Ying shut up quickly. If you talk too much, you will be wrong, and you will get scolded. Ever since she got married, Xia Yao has been a bit wordy. And his mouth became mean.
Xia Yao was worried about Wen Wan. He could guess almost everything, and it wasn't a big deal even if he thought about it. Ask someone to invite Mingrui over immediately
Mingrui entered the study, but Wenwan didn't notice because she was thinking about something. Mingrui frowned. She didn't notice that this was the first time he came in. It seemed like things were going to be very tricky this time.
Wen Wan turned around, saw Mingrui, and said with a forced smile, "Why aren't you in class? What are you doing here?" Wen Wan had no idea of ??skipping class. Because Mingrui is the most well-behaved child.
Seeing that she was in low spirits, Mingrui said softly: "Mom, what happened? You look so different. Mom, if you have something to worry about, don't dwell on it alone. Tell me." Although he is still young, at least he is Can come up with ideas.
Since this incident involves two children, Wen Wan doesn¡¯t have so many taboos anymore. He told the matter: "Once your uncle, the emperor, goes to war in person, my situation in the capital will be very dangerous. My mother is not afraid. She has experienced no matter how dangerous the situation is. But my mother is worried about you brothers." Wen Wan was able to leave before. After going through so many obstacles, good luck is one thing. On the other hand, she is not afraid of death. Although she cherishes her life, she is not afraid of death. Because there is nothing in this world that she misses. Opponents can't find any of her weaknesses. It's different now. Children are her weakness.
Once a person has a weakness, he will look forward and backward when doing things, and it is easy to make mistakes. If these people are deliberately trying to deal with her and the child. If you are a thief the day before yesterday, there is no way to prevent a thief for a thousand days.
Mingrui listened to Wen Wan¡¯s various concerns and couldn¡¯t think of a solution: ¡°Mom, there¡¯s no point worrying now. When we get to that point, there will naturally be a solution. Don¡¯t think about it.¡±
Wen Wan touched Mingrui's forehead: "Mom has been through great storms in her life. Until now, except for you two brothers, there is nothing that scares me. In this case, I am afraid that you two brothers will be affected by my mother."
As a family of four, Bai Shinian doesn¡¯t have to worry, he can take care of himself. The only thing I worry about is my two children.
