Invincible son

Wei Guogong's mansion, on Bagui Hall.

It was extremely lively today, with dozens of people gathered here.

Wang Pingzhang first looked at the young disciples who couldn't hide their excitement, and said calmly: "Your Majesty has given you the grace to allow you to enter the court as officials. You must not be complacent, let alone domineering. Do things diligently and be down-to-earth. As a human being, you must not defile the lintel of the Wang family, do you understand clearly?"

Everyone saluted in unison and said loudly: "I would like to follow the teachings of my grandfather."

Wang Pingzhang waved his hand, signaling them to back down, and looked at the other side of the more than ten people who looked as tired as frost beating eggplants, and said in a deep voice: "The old man has not restrained you too much these years, it is unbelievable that you would dare to do those stupid things." There is no cure for being caught and stabbed in front of His Majesty! The old man is too lazy to listen to your nonsense, so he will take the initiative to go to the Kyoto government office and explain all the crimes he has committed, whether he is exiled or beheaded. , this old man will definitely not intercede for you."

These Wang family's children couldn't help showing despair when they heard the words, but they didn't dare to ask for mercy, some even burst into tears.

How could Wang Pingzhang want to see such a shameful scene, he frowned and reprimanded coldly: "Get out!"

Everyone scrambled and retreated.

The old men on the left hesitated to speak, Wang Pingzhang said indifferently: "You are all my brothers of the same clan. These years, relying on the name of Wei Guogong's mansion to run rampant in the capital, I don't know how much money they made. It was fine before, but now I If you want to resign and return to your hometown, I would like to advise you to clean up and deal with it quickly, otherwise you will not regret it when you lose your head in the future."

One of them apologized with a smile: "Brother, we really didn't—"

Wang Pingzhang raised his hand to cut off his words, and said indifferently: "Do you know in your heart that this is what the old man said, and you all wish for good luck. Loyal heir, see off the guests."

The second son Wang Zhongsi got up and asked those people to leave with half coercion and half respect, and the hall finally became quiet.

After Wang Zhongsi returned, besides Wang Pingzhang himself, there were also his eldest grandson Wang Jiuxuan, third son Wang Zhongyuan, fifth son Wang Zhongmian, and Wang Zhongsi's eldest son Wang Shenzhi.

The atmosphere was slightly solemn. Wang Zhongsi first sighed, and then said worriedly: "Father, even if the Wang family has retreated to this point, His Majesty will probably not give up. As long as you step down from the military position, it will be half a year at the earliest, or two years at the slowest. He will kill the Wang family, especially the kid Jiuxuan."

Wang Pingzhang took a sip of the tea cup and said slowly, "What are you talking about all this nonsense?"

Wang Zhongsi hesitated and said: "What the father taught is that the son is only worried that the next arrangement will be too risky."

Wang Pingzhang slightly raised his eyebrows and said: "If it wasn't for his father's death, how could the Wang family have 17 years of glory and wealth? These years deliberately suppress you, not to suppress your spirits, but to hope that you can stay dormant for many years. Teng Yun. Don’t gossip. There are still more than [-] days before the Yanping hunting meeting. During this time, follow the list drawn up by the old man to contact those people from the battalions of the Beijing Army, the Jingdu Garrison Division, and the Imperial Army. Remember, you must Be careful and don't get caught on your tracks."

The crowd responded in unison.

Wang Pingzhang said again: "Let's go to work, Jiuxuan stay."

Wang Jiuxuan lived in seclusion in the mansion during this time, and on the surface he didn't seem to have suffered much. He said calmly: "Grandfather, second uncle and third uncle may have been closely watched by Luan Yiwei, no matter how careful they are His Majesty will know."

"It's okay."

Wang Pingzhang shook his head and said meaningfully: "Don't forget, before the old man made a move, His Majesty decided to come out of Beijing to observe the ceremony. This shows that he knows what the old man wants to do, and at the same time he is absolutely sure of being invincible. Your Majesty Over the years, he has become more and more fond of going fishing by the Taiye Pool, and this habit will inevitably affect his judgment. After all, the friendship between the monarch and his subjects has been decades-old, and since he wants to catch the ghosts and monsters in the world, the old man has to accompany him on the last journey. "

Knowing most of the plans of the old man in front of him, Wang Jiuxuan couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

For Emperor Kaiping and Wang Pingzhang, the conflict between the two sides has already become a deadlock, and even gradually became an obsession in each other's hearts. Neither of them wants to and can't take a step back.With the development of the situation to the present stage, there are bright cards and dark hands on both sides, but it is not known whether there will be variables on the way.

After contemplating for a long time, Wang Jiuxuan asked, "Grandfather, will Mo Moyun find out what happened back then?"

Wang Pingzhang shook his head calmly and said, "Do you think he will question His Majesty? You don't know Mo Moyun. He seems to be unfathomable, but in fact he is very similar to Pei Yue. They are both paranoid and stubborn in nature. Although Your Majesty The management of the palace is solid, but Mo Moyun is not the only one who hides eyeliner in the palace, the old man also has some arrangements. It is impossible to assassinate the king, but it is not difficult to find out some news."

Wang Jiuxuan nodded and said: "That's very good, my grandson is just worried that Mo Moyun will turn against him."

Wang Pingzhang smiled and said: "How can I pin all my hopes on him, you don't have to worry too much. Besides, if Mo Moyun didn't doubt His Majesty, why did he send Qi Hui to the palace 13 years ago?"

14 years ago, Shen Wende, the only son of Mo Moyun, died unexpectedly.

Thinking of this incident, Wang Jiuxuan suddenly said, "It turns out that Mo Moyun had already guessed that his son's death was not an accident."

Wang Pingzhang said leisurely: "After all, he is the chief officer of the Taishitai Pavilion. He also did similar things under Pei Zhen. He has been immersed in conspiracy and calculation for half his life, so he naturally has some intuition. It's just that he obviously didn't expect it. It's natural for the old man to do it himself. It can be done so seamlessly that even His Majesty was deceived by it."

Although Wang Jiuxuan had heard him talk about this before, he was still extremely shocked at the moment.

It was a conspiracy that lasted 14 years. Who would have thought that his grandfather's decision back then could affect the current situation?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help asking curiously: "Grandfather, why did you do this?"

A murderous intent flashed in Wang Pingzhang's eyes, and he said slowly: "Because our Majesty is heartless and cold-blooded, he will kill anyone who might hinder him, no matter how deep the friendship was back then."

He turned his head to look at Wang Jiuxuan, with a slightly sad tone in his tone: "Although the old man has never been convinced after fighting with Pei Zhen for half his life, he has to admit that he is perfect in a certain sense, so it's no wonder that Xi Sidao is so weird." Only then is he determined to follow. It is such a person, but our majesty forced him to feign death to escape, even returning to the roots of fallen leaves is an extravagant hope."

He shook his head and smiled, and said sadly: "A generation of perfect people died in a foreign land, and only ended up in a tomb in the wilderness for future generations to pay tribute to."

Wang Jiuxuan finally understood the whole story.

In the third year of Renxuan, Pei Zhen died of illness in Hucheng. In front of the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, Emperor Kaiping lamented that the country had lost Gancheng, and posthumously named him Duke Dingguo.

In the winter of the fourth year of Renxuan, Shen Wende died in Kyoto at the age of 19.

In the winter of the sixth year of Kaiping, Wang Pingzhang and Shen Mo Yunmi met in a certain house in Xicheng.

Wang Pingzhang said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty has deep thoughts, that's why he created the Luan Yiwei to check and balance the Taishitai Pavilion, but the old man knows better than anyone else that if there is a day when there is a real action in the future, Mo Moyun's position is very important. In other words, Once Shen Wende dies, His Majesty will trust him more, but His Majesty has far more suspicions than this old man. Mo Moyun's telling me of Qi Hui's identity is to show his attitude, and it is also the key to the smooth implementation of this line."

He stood up slowly, stretched out his old palm and patted Wang Jiuxuan's shoulder, and said with deep eyes: "I hope you can remember all the details firmly, the future of the Wang family will ultimately rest on you."

Wang Jiuxuan bowed his head and said: "Grandfather, don't worry, grandson will do his best."

Wang Pingzhang smiled slightly, and said a little tiredly: "Good boy."
