Yange left, but when she came back, she brought Mrs. Song with her, whose eyes were full of bloodshot eyes. Seeing his mother's haggard face, Wei Changying also changed his face and scolded Yan Ge: "I only asked you to go and talk to Aunt Shi, how could you dare to disturb my mother?"
Mrs. Song forced a smile, waved her hand and said: "Don't blame Yan Ge, I just said that I would go back to sleep for a while, but where can I sleep? Before Yan Ge, your grandmother sent someone to tell you about your return... But I was thinking of you. I was afraid I had to take a rest after bathing, so I didn’t come to disturb you. I asked Yange if you were awake, so why didn’t I come over and take a look? "
Wei Changying's eyes turned red when he heard this, and he choked with sobs: "I'm fine, mother, don't worry."
Madam Song already knew from Old Madam Song that Wei Changying had returned safely and that the palace guard sand was still on his arm. In addition, Wei Changfeng's previous impersonation meant that 80% of what happened this time could be covered up, and he could still calm down at this moment. Holding her breath, she looked lovingly at her daughter's rosy face after a nap, and said softly: "God bless you! My son is finally back!"
But she could only hold her breath for such a sentence - as soon as she finished speaking, Mrs. Song, who had always been dignified and reserved, suddenly stood up, threw herself on the couch, and hugged Wei Changying tightly!
Wei Changying was stunned for a moment, feeling that Mrs. Song was hugging him with almost all her strength. He was so excited that his nails almost dug into his flesh. His heart felt sour for no reason, and he hugged Mrs. Song with his backhand. Everyone in the room looked at each other and remained silent. Even though mother and daughter hugged each other for a long time, Mrs. Song's face was covered with tears when they let go. The shoulders of Wei Changying's coat were all wet. She wiped them with a handkerchief. While sitting, looking at her daughter infatuatedly, she wanted to say something but was choked by sobs...
At this time, Aunt Shi persuaded: "The eldest lady and the fifth young master have returned safely. It can be seen that good people have their own destiny, and madam should thank God. Now that eldest lady has not recovered her spirit, crying with madam again will probably be even more depressing." .”
Seeing that these words could not calm Mrs. Song's sadness, she reminded her again, "The little Mr. Liu brought Mrs. Su here today. The poor eldest lady was woken up from her nap and perfunctory them..."
Sure enough, Mrs. Song wiped her face three times when she heard this, and said with vicious eyes: "Wei Zhengya and Xiao Liu... No matter what my father and mother do, I will fight to the death with Duke Jingping in this life!!"
"Mother." Wei Changying knew that Mrs. Song was in poor health now and couldn't bear her to worry about it anymore. Besides, although he already knew that Duke Jingping was one of the masterminds of this ambush, "Biwu" had already planned something like this. In the hands of Wei Zhengya, where is it so easy to grasp? There is no basis for this. As both the direct descendant and the eldest son of Duke Jingping, even if Wei Huan is the head of the clan, there is nothing he can do about it without any evidence.
You must know that Wei Huan has been in the position of clan leader for many years. He is a shrewd man and has a deep knowledge of the city. He can be regarded as a descendant, especially his second son and direct descendants are all talented people. In this case, Wei Zhengya still dares to plan. He regained his position as the leader of the clan, firmly controlled "Biwu", and also won the reputation of a famous person in the country. How could he be a person with a false reputation
Maybe he has always been at a disadvantage, but he is not easy to eradicate and take revenge!
This time, even though Wei Huan was still in the Jingping Palace and did not hear what his granddaughter told Mrs. Song first, even if Wei Huan knew the whole story before going to the Jingping Palace, it would still be impossible to tell the truth. He could only ask Wei Zhengya to rectify "Biwu" on the excuse that "Biwu" failed to save the important direct descendants of the clan, and used this reason to seize the power of "Biwu" and weaken Wei Zhengya. If he had done it openly, everyone in the world would probably say that Wei Huan was greedy because he held the position of Lord of the clan, Shangzhu Kingdom, and Chang Shangong, and also claimed the Duke of Jingping, which was hereditary and irreplaceable by his brother-in-law. Instead, he would give Wei Zhengya , also gives Zhibentang a chance.
So Wei Changying pursed his lips and said sternly: "Why should mother be angry? Let's not talk about this incident. Everyone in our family will remember it! The future is long, and there is not only our flesh and blood, but also the identity of the legitimate eldest son, there is no Be sure not to act rashly. When we get the chance, are you afraid that we will forget what happened this time? Besides, they paid a lot of money this time, but they only killed a group of our servants, and neither I nor the leader gained anything! Feng came back well. I heard that Gao Chuan was injured, but there was no fear for his life. Even if Xiao Liu and Su came to 'visit' me every day, they might be so angry in Jingping Gong's Mansion. It’s unknown if I drive away my servants and dance alone to vent my anger!”
Mrs. Song burst into laughter at what her daughter said, and the hatred in her heart faded away. She said softly: "Okay, okay! I will do whatever you want to do as a mother..." Then he stretched out his hand to caress her face, feeling both scared and sighing, "Thank you. You are all fine! Otherwise, how can I explain to your father?"
——Wei Changying returned safely and intact, which made Rui Yutang feel a huge stone in his heart.
Even Mrs. Song believed that the next step in comforting her frightened three grandchildren was to help Wei Huan scheme against "Biwu" and plan revenge against the Liu family, Zhibentang and Empress Gu.
As a member of the clan, they were no strangers to intrigues. Both their grandson and granddaughter were fine. Wei Huan and Mrs. Song both had enough patience to take revenge.
More than half a month has passed, and everyone in Ruiyu Hall has returned to normal. Fengzhou City is quiet and there is no bad news at all.
Just when everyone was about to forget about the attack, a large piece of clay was carefully carried into the back hall. Mrs. Song stared at it for a full moment before she asked with a livid face: "Is this... this What means?!"
The people who sent the clay in were a couple, Wei Zhengya and Xiao Liu.
Wei Zhengya, who is nearly fifty years old, is worthy of being a famous person in the country, and his demeanor is very extraordinary. His face was very similar to that of Wei Zhenghong. He had a graceful demeanor and the aura of a book. He said without hesitation: "Back to my second aunt, this is what happened. A few days ago, several of Chang Ying's children were assassinated outside Fengzhou City. , It’s really shocking! Thanks to the loyalty of my servants, I risked my life to protect them and return safely.”
Mrs. Song said impatiently: "This matter has passed. The three children were all frightened. It's better not to mention it now... What are you doing with this clay?"
"My nephew thought that the reason why the three nephews and nieces returned safely this time was not only the blessing of God, but also the loyalty of my servants. Therefore, it is appropriate to write down a note for these loyal servants, not to mention erecting a monument, but also a brief note. Remember, making a name for yourself is just a small thing for us, but it can be a tribute to our loyal servants for thousands of years!" Wei Zhengya talked eloquently, unaffected by Mrs. Song's frowning and tightening, and said, "Such a small thing, nephew! I thought I wouldn’t bother my second uncle and aunt too much so that I could report it after I was ready.
He pointed to the mud in front of him - this piece of mud was about six feet long and four feet wide, with some roots and grass attached to it. It was not completely dry, but what was dry were footprints.
Among at least three or four pairs of similar-sized footprints, one pair that was far more slender and delicate than the others was particularly distinct in Mrs. Song's eyes - this was why Mrs. Song became livid when she saw it.
But Mrs. Song was determined not to admit it, so she said calmly: "But what?"
"My nephew planned to write an essay praising the servant who escorted his three nephews and nieces back. It happened that my nephew had quite a lot of free time recently, so he took someone into the forest to see how the nephews were doing in the forest. It’s also a good idea to think of new words and sentences when encountering them.” For famous people like Wei Zhengya, carving and thinking of new words and sentences is a big deal. For the more sophisticated ones, they travel across mountains and rivers to catch the flash of inspiration. It’s not surprising—his explanation makes sense everywhere, “However, following the footsteps, I found the place where Chang Ying’s niece and Chang Feng’s nephew were separated in the forest, and found... those who were escorted back by Jiang Zheng seemed to be Not Chang Ying’s niece?”
Mrs. Song said coldly: "This is funny. Who could it be if it wasn't Chang Ying? Could it be Chang Feng? Those righteous men in the forest invited Chang Feng - there is a difference between men and women. Don't they have eyes?" Wei Changying and Wei Changfeng came back front and back, rather than at the same time, so they naturally had to explain things to the outside world.
Of course it is difficult to reveal the truth that they were rescued by Wei Xinyong, the traitor of the Tang Dynasty, who secretly cultivated a group of bandits in Fengqi Mountain. Therefore, Ruiyu Tang's external rhetoric is that Wei Changying and Wei Changfeng Kankan were surrounded by assassins. While staying there, a group of common people went into the forest to collect medicine. After hearing the noise, they rescued them.
Wei Changfeng and Wei Changying wanted to thank the righteous men in the forest, but they couldn't resist their hospitality, so Wei Changfeng asked his sister to go back home first, while he paid a visit to his benefactor, so he delayed his return for two days.
"Second Aunt I don't know." Wei Zhengya smiled faintly and said, "The place where this piece of soil was excavated is deep in the forest, with lush branches and leaves, and they are all evergreen trees, so the light is very dim. It was said that it was still raining that day? Chang Feng and Chang Ying both brought bamboo hats when they came back, so it seems that they may not be able to attend the appointment on their behalf!"
"What do you mean by this?" Mrs. Song immediately turned her back and became furious, "The one who came back first was obviously Chang Ying! In those few days, your wife, your eldest daughter-in-law, and your legitimate daughter didn't take turns visiting each other all day long. ? When did you find out it was Chang Feng? "
Wei Zhengya just smiled indifferently at the old lady's anger, but then said: "Second Aunt, there is no need to be angry. My nephew thought that although the footprints on the clay seemed to belong to Chang Ying's niece,... it might also be Chang Feng and Chang Feng. After the righteous men in the forest who rescued them left, Chang Ying was reluctant to give up and chased them for a few steps. "
He said this and that now, and his intentions were unpredictable. Mrs. Song frowned and did not accept the words. She only said: "The one who came back first is Chang Ying. I am not so stupid that even my granddaughter and grandson are here." It's hard to tell them apart. Speaking of which, these three children were ambushed on the official road and were forced to flee into the forest. The assassins didn't take all of them. Why would you take such a risk and run in if you met a bad guy inside? "What if something goes wrong with your wife and daughter? You've already learned your fate, and you're still like this! Is it so important to carve out new words that you have to go into the woods?"
Wei Zhengya hurriedly thanked her aunt for her concern and replied: "Besides, those righteous men in the forest saved Chang Ying and Chang Feng. Even if the two children went with them to pay their respects, it would be nothing. Well, how can Chang Ying be a girl? Will you go to the appointment on behalf of Changfeng? So my nephew brought this adobe today, not because he was suspicious of his niece, but for another reason."
Mrs. Song took a sip of tea, thought quickly, and then said calmly: "What's wrong?"
"Speaking of which, our eldest daughter-in-law only heard about it yesterday when someone from her mother's family came to deliver something." Wei Zhengya and Xiao Liu looked at each other, and Xiao Liu sighed and said softly: "Second aunt, that's what happened. What happened: Yesterday, someone from the Su family came to give something to the eldest daughter-in-law, and mentioned something that happened in the Imperial Capital recently, saying that someone with a Fengzhou accent stopped... Situ Weiqi's guard of honor in the Imperial Capital! "
"Situ heard that he was from Fengzhou, and thinking about his second uncle, he got out of the sedan chair to ask why. Unexpectedly, the man... cried in the street, saying that he was an innocent commoner in Fengzhou, and he only went to the forest to cut trees. , accidentally discovered that... Chang Ying was kidnapped by several men, and he was hunted down by our family! "
Xiao Liu looked worried, "The most important thing is, it is said that that person also drew a portrait of Chang Ying... but I don't know if it is true or not? Now this matter has caused a stir in the imperial capital, I am afraid... the Shen family members Already on the way!"
"So we quickly sent people to dig out the soil there, so that the Shen family would not be suspicious if they knew about it." Xiao Liu said considerately, "Now the footprints that can still be found there have been dug away or Destroyed, Second Aunt, but don’t worry, even if the Shen family goes to see the original place, they will definitely not find any traces that shouldn’t be found... "
With a "clang" sound, the tea bowl in Mrs. Song's hand was directly knocked over on the table... (To be continued)
