(Why haven’t you subscribed? There are only a few subscriptions in one chapter. This is telling me with the facts that no... people... watch...)
"Your Majesty has already made a decision?"

Deep in the palace wall, in a gorgeous pavilion, a noble and gorgeous middle-aged woman asked leisurely to the maid beside her.

"Madam, Your Majesty has decreed that the Fifth Young Master should go to Qi State as a hostage!" The maid beside her said softly, her expression full of humility.

The beautiful woman in front of her is in charge of the entire Wei palace and harem. For these little girls, she is as irreversible as a god.

This woman is naturally Wei Hou's wife, the mother of the second son Wei Chengze, Mrs. Wei.

At this time, after hearing this satisfactory answer, Mrs. Wei's expression eased a little, and then she looked at the spring scenery of the lake outside the window, and Yanfu returned to the pond.

"You go down!" Beside Mrs. Wei, Wu Yun, who had always been a confidant, signaled the maid to back down.

There were few people in the pavilion, once the maid left, only Mrs. Wei and Wu Yun stayed in place, and the rest of the attendants were far away from each other.

"Ma'am, now we can rest easy!" Wu Yun said with a smile at this time, she also felt relieved that her master's serious troubles were removed.

Not to mention, she, Wu Yun, had a big enmity with Wei Wuji at the beginning, and now that Wei Wuji was driven to Wei State, how could she not feel happy.

"It's not yet the time to be happy. For Wei Wuji's sake, Junshang actually let it out before, expressing that he didn't want him to be a hostage. This shows that Junshang's heart is still with him."

Mrs. Wei turned around slowly, with a calm and elegant style, vividly interpreting the nobility of the mother of a great country, anyone who saw her for the first time would feel admiration and admiration.

"What madam said is that the servant girl is lying!" Wu Yun nodded and said, this point must be taken seriously, Wei Hou's attitude is very important.

"It was the aristocratic family who drove Wei Wuji out this time. If we can't get rid of him completely, who should we rely on next time?" Mrs. Wei frowned.

Seeing that his wife was worrying too much, Wu Yun comforted him and said, "I'm afraid Ma'am is worrying too much, if our son has the support of a big family, even if Wei Wuji is lucky enough to come back from Qi, what will he do to fight with Mr. Chengze? "

Mrs. Wei took a look at Wu Yun, then shook her head. She was a little helpless with the knowledge of her maidservant, but she still explained: "This is exactly what I am worried about. Shen, even without Wei Wuji, the throne might not fall to him!"

Puzzled, Wu Yun asked, "What do you mean by Madam's words?"

Mrs. Wei didn't want to explain at first, but maybe it was to explain it to herself, so she said: "If you rely too much on the power of the family, it means that after you succeed to the throne, the family will restrict the monarchy too much."

"Do you think Your Majesty will let such a person become a prince?" Mrs. Wei asked, looking back at Wu Yun.

Wu Yun thought about it carefully, and found that this is really the case. He didn't pay attention to it before, and thought it was a good thing that so many people supported his young master, but he didn't expect that just one step away would lead to an abyss.

"The aristocratic family can only use us, of course...they will use us too, but we must not be trapped with them!" Mrs. Wei turned around and looked at the distant mountains outside the window.

…………

When the time came to the third day after the court meeting, Wei Hou's decree had been issued to Shangluo, and some news slowly spread.

First of all, in the upper circle of Wu'an, those with official status, those big families...

Because she has been listed as a Shangqing, and as the mother of one of the few Shangqings in the Wei Kingdom, Tan Ji naturally also got to know the news through some channels, and of course some people may be able to disclose it to her.

Anyway, in a word, this mother got the news that her son would never come back after waiting and anticipating day by day, and it was her husband who sent her only son away.

This was tantamount to the doomsday for Tan Ji. After hearing the news, she immediately passed out and became unconscious.

When she woke up again, no matter how the servants obstructed her, they didn't stop the mother's urge to ask for an explanation.

Almost stumbling all the way, with the support of the maids, the mother rushed to the Wei Palace. She was going to find the man to intercede, or to ask for an explanation.

Thanks to being within the Forbidden City, this scene did not cause any big disturbances.

When Tan Ji rushed to the gate of the palace, it was still the time when the setting sun was setting and the sky was dark.

"The forbidden area of ​​the palace gate, come and stop!"

Before Tanji approached, the guards ordered her.

This startled Lan'er on the side, her wife was making such a fuss, the crime was too great, just when she was about to persuade her, she found that her wife spoke first.

"I want to enter the palace and meet the emperor!" Tan Ji roared, giving people a heart-piercing feeling.

His own words were ignored, and the guard said angrily: "You shrew, if you don't leave, I will put you in jail!"

"Hahaha..." Tan Ji laughed like a madman, and then yelled miserably: "Okay, okay...you go and tell Wei Hongyi, let him kill both of us, mother and child, and prevent him from... It's an eyesore!"

Wei Hongyi is the great name of Marquis Wei, who would dare to yell out of his mouth on weekdays, but the woman in front of him yelled rebelliously, which shocked the guard's heart, if he didn't stop it immediately, he would have to play with it even if he committed some serious crimes Finish.

Just as he was about to order someone to take the master and servants away, another older leader of the palace gate stopped him.

Because he stayed in the palace for a long time, this old guard became the number one guarding the gate of the palace, but he knew more than ordinary people. He recognized who the woman in front of him was, and he also knew some old things from that year.

In his opinion, Tan Ji was not something he could handle, and naturally he was even less something his subordinates could handle.

The lord guard walked up to Tan Ji, and respectfully said to her, "Madam, please be safe, and if you want to enter the palace, let me inform you first!"

Only then did Tan Ji calm down, and then she wiped away her tears and said, "Then I will thank you sir!"

The old guard sighed, but the man in front of him is also a poor man!
Immediately, he called for his subordinates to order him to enter the palace to report.

Tan Ji just stood outside the tall and majestic palace wall, waiting for the palace gate to open.

Time passed by, the waiting was undoubtedly tormenting, but Tan Ji still persisted until the palace gate opened again.

However, the news from the guards was that His Majesty had gone to bed and no one was seen.

"Madame, madam..."

Tan Ji collapsed to the ground as if struck by lightning!
This scene was very sad, and the palace gatekeeper couldn't bear to look directly at this moment, and slowly turned around and left.The evening wind blows, and the palace gate is desolate.

"Your Majesty, you can't... you can't send Wuji to Qi State!" Tan Ji said hoarsely, like a cuckoo crying blood, and everyone felt sad when she heard it.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

However, no one moved. Everyone watched this scene indifferently, or ignored it.

With tears in her eyes, Tan Ji shouted desolately: "Wuji is only seventeen, and he hasn't even performed the coronation ceremony yet, why are you so cruel..."

"Back then, when Wuji was just born, you promised me that you would treat my mother and son kindly for the rest of your life. Is this how you treated us kindly?"

"Haha... It's fake, it's all fake..." Tan Ji forced herself to stand up, staggering and laughing, the laughter was full of sadness.

"Back then, you killed my father and almost everyone in my Tan clan..."

"Now, you are going to kill even my only son, you... so cruel, are you still human?"

When Tan Ji said this, everyone was shocked, not because they were moved by Tan Ji, but because Wei Hou was scolded...

However, they didn't know how to deal with it. After all, the identity of the person in front of him was sensitive, and it was definitely not something these guards could do.

But at this time, Tan Ji cursed at the palace gate again: "Wei Hongyi, are you still human?"

……

On the high side of the palace wall, in a hidden attic, Wei Hou silently watched this scene. At this moment, he also felt sad in his heart, as if something was about to gush out of the corner of his eyes.

Immediately, he closed his eyes, and after a long sigh, he said: "Order, Mrs. Tan is out of her mind, and will be taken care of by the Zongzheng Mansion!"

Under the servant's promise, Wei Hou opened his eyes, but his eyes were already clear, then he turned and walked deep into the palace wall.
