"Lan'er hasn't woken up yet?"
When Gao returned to the main room, it was just dawn.
The sun rises much later in winter, so it’s actually not that early now. You can vaguely hear sounds coming from other houses in the alley.
Compared with other families, the Wei family was very quiet today. Everyone went to bed late last night, but Wei Maolin had to rush to the City Affairs Office to be on duty, which was no different from usual days.
"She was frightened and caught a cold last night. Let her sleep a little longer." It's a good thing that she can sleep, and there's nothing important at home.
After Gao finished speaking, she sat down opposite Wei Maolin. Just as she was about to ask the maid to bring her breakfast, she saw Wei Maolin raise his head and look at her face.
"Ma'am, what are you worried about?"
Gao frowned slightly, then relaxed.
They have been married for more than 20 years, and just as she understands Wei Maolin, Wei Maolin also understands her best in this world.
With a sigh, Gao honestly expressed her concerns: "Qi is too great to be matched. If King You had always guarded the three states of Tan, Qian, and Yi and stayed away from disputes, it might not be a bad choice. But now it seems that King You is interested in that position."
Let’s put the matter of my daughter aside.
Speaking of the major political affairs in the court, both the Wei family and she personally would certainly hope that the next person to sit on the throne would be King You.
Only if King You ascends the throne can Dayong regain the prosperity it once enjoyed during the reign of the previous emperor.
But this is considered from the perspective of the ministers and the people of Dayong.
From a mother's perspective, she doesn't want her daughter to experience harem infighting in the future. No matter how good the relationship is, it can't stand the test of time and interests. Today, King You will risk his life for Lan'er, but who knows if he will personally push Lan'er into the endless abyss in the future?
Royal ruthlessness.
The emperor was even more ruthless.
Just look at your husband’s cousin, Empress Xianfei, to understand this.
The virtuous concubine was an old woman who had followed Emperor Xiaoming when he was in the Prince's Palace, and she gave birth to the first princess of Emperor Xiaoming.
But when his own interests were really threatened, Emperor Xiaoming abandoned Concubine Xian and Princess Changning without hesitation.
Without taking into account any old friendship or blood relationship.
The imperial family is the most ruthless, and this is not just talk.
Compared to the supreme power and status that she might get, Gao hoped that her daughter could live as freely and unrestrainedly as she had this year.
Wei Maolin could understand Gao's thoughts.
In his eyes, his wife has always been more insightful and wiser than himself.
But I just happened to be obsessed with this matter and became confused because of my concern.
"Ma'am. Your Highness is different from today."
Wei Maolin's words made Gao slightly stunned.
Yes, the current emperor, Emperor Xiaoming, is incompetent and incompetent. But King You Qixu is both wise and brave, and now it seems that he is also quite kind to the people.
"The matter between Prince You and Lan'er may not be as you and I think. We don't need to promote Lan'er to that position. But if they really have a friendship... we don't have to be the evil ones who break up the couple."
To put it bluntly, Wei Maolin has no desire to become the father-in-law of the emperor!
The Wei family has never been a family that covets power.
What's more, no matter what, Lan'er was a divorced woman, and there has never been a precedent in the history of Dayong for a second marriage to become the queen.
Except for the Queen, the rest... even the Imperial Concubine, he felt that his daughter had been wronged! I guess the Madam thought the same.
However, given the current situation, it is obviously impossible for them to sever their relationship with King You.
Not to mention anything else, just the fact that there is the former Tianshi Mansion in the middle makes it hard for anyone to believe that the Wei family was not used by King You.
"In the eyes of outsiders, we are all on King You's ship. For example, we should make preparations early."
Wei Maolin reminded in a low voice.
Gao also reacted at once.
If King You took the northern land and border areas such as Tan, Qian and Yi states as his base and adopted a strategy of slowly infiltrating from the outside, his chances of winning would still be great.
It is said that the assassins from the capital this time were very skilled, but they were unable to do anything to King You. In the future, when King You's power on the border grows stronger, it is likely that the capital will be even less able to control him.
But in this way, as a family that had close contact with King You.
There is a high possibility that they will be angered by those in the capital who are unable to do anything to King You.
They are far away in Beiguan, so they are not afraid that the forces in the capital will extend their hands so far.
But there are still relatives in the capital...
"We need to prepare early." Gao straightened her expression and nodded.
At least we need to find a way to communicate with Duke Xu's mansion.
After all, he is one of the only four dukes. Although Duke Xu's Mansion may seem low-key, its foundation is actually much deeper than that of the usually ostentatious Duke Liu's Mansion.
If he could get support from Duke Xu's Mansion, it would provide further help for King You's future success.
Wei Yunlan didn't open his eyes until almost noon.
He slept for almost half a day. If Gao hadn't specifically told him not to disturb him, Tingxue and Ningshuang would have been worried and wanted to wake him up.
After a heavy snowfall, the sky is exceptionally clear today.
The sunlight shines on the snow, making everything bright.
Wei Yunlan put on his outer robe, stretched out his hand to push open the window, and squinted his eyes because of the dazzle of the sunlight. "How could I have slept for such a long time?"
After listening to Ningshuang talking about the current time, I couldn't help but sigh that getting more sleep really can help to nourish the mind. The tingling feeling between my eyebrows last night is basically gone.
I just felt a little dizzy when I stood up, but it should be fine after two days of rest.
Heiyun, who was lying on the side of the bed, saw her stand up, and he also jumped up and rubbed against her palm.
