Dressed as a middle-aged mistress, I want to lie down every day

Wang's grandfather never entered the palace again, and the Queen Mother only gave some rewards to the people in the Wang family residence every once in a while.

The rewards given to the two young ladies were always different. This was because one was the legitimate daughter of the Wang family, while the other was only the granddaughter of the Wang family. Moreover, her mother was a concubine's daughter. If the rewards were exactly the same, it would be against the rules.

Queen Mother Wang's second uncle, Wang Shiwei, was also puzzled as to why his father asked him and his wife to bring their granddaughter into the palace without giving any instructions.

He did not want his granddaughter to enter the palace, and he had never planned to do so before, so his upbringing of his granddaughter was ordinary.

He never thought that his father would push his granddaughter to the throne. Don't think that being from the empress dowager's family can secure the throne of queen. Without means and brains, she won't survive more than a few years.

He was only worried that his father would use their family as pawns against his niece.

He could only sternly instruct his granddaughter that after entering the palace, she should not look around, and if anyone asked her anything, she should just shake her head and say she didn't know.

Fortunately, no one asked the two girls anything, and entering the palace was just normal.

When he met the emperor, he found that he didn't look like his niece, so he looked like the late emperor.

The emperor smiled, his eyes twitched upwards, with some evil charm

That's not what a twelve-year-old boy should look like.

He remembered that his niece was twelve years old and smiled brightly in front of her mother. There was always a light in her eyes, which looked very similar to her grandfather's.

His mother once told him that his eldest brother looked like his father, but his personality was different and he was a little cowardly. His mother was afraid that his eldest brother would not dare to disobey his father in the future, so she asked him to protect his niece more in the future.

At that time, he still thought that his father was his niece's biological grandfather. Could he possibly harm his own granddaughter?

That year, when his father drew his sword to kill his niece, his eldest brother rushed forward to block the sword, then he picked up his niece and ran away.

At that time, he understood what his mother said. Not to mention his granddaughter, even his sons were probably pawns in his father's eyes.

Since then, he has not sought to improve himself, nor has he allowed his descendants to do so.

Wang Shibo didn’t know what his father was going to do in Beijing this time, and his eldest brother didn’t know even more.

After the first month of the year, my father did not return to the palace, and my niece did not leave the palace.

After the first month of the lunar year, Old Master Wang asked Wang Jingye to give the Empress Dowager a message so that the two of them could meet alone.

Wang Jingye breathed a sigh of relief. He had not been able to eat or sleep well during this period. The method of conquering the heart that his cousin mentioned was something that both the grandfather and the grandson could remain calm, but it was his heart that couldn't bear it.

My great-uncle was the first to ask for a meeting. Could it be that he was impatient?

The meeting place was Shuangfeng Temple. Wang Jingye accompanied his great uncle to kowtow to the Bodhisattvas one by one. While kowtowing, he wondered what his great uncle would say to the Bodhisattvas?

Anyway, he has done things with a clear conscience throughout his life and is not afraid of being struck by lightning. He doesn't know whether his grandfather is afraid or not.

They arrived first. After worshiping the Buddha, the cousin arrived and the two of them entered the Buddhist hall. Wang Jingye stayed far away outside. He had no intention of prying in and really wished he knew nothing.

The Queen Mother and Grandfather sat opposite each other. Neither of them spoke and they just looked at each other for a while.

Old Master Wang smiled and said, "Your grandmother said you are the one who looks most like me."

The Queen Mother also smiled slightly. "Grandmother did say that, and I think so too."

Grandfather mentioned grandmother first, probably to confuse her mind.

Then Old Master Wang sighed and said, "Your grandmother and I were married for life. I have always respected her and am grateful for giving birth to my son."

Seeing that his granddaughter only had a heavy expression and was not angry, he said, "You've grown up, and I'm relieved. You were still young that year, and you acted a little hastily. How could I allow someone else to...harm my wife?"

The Queen Mother also sighed, "He has grown up. My son is twelve now, the same age as I was then. But I don't regret what I have done."

Old Lady Wang didn't continue her granddaughter's words, but instead showed admiration in her eyes. "Grandfather is deeply pleased that the Wang family has a daughter who is able to rule the country from behind the scenes."

The Queen Mother said, "Although my grandmother was an ordinary woman, I always remember what she said: only when the world is peaceful can the people have a good life and not face turmoil and homelessness. Our Wang family is blessed by our ancestors and lives better than ordinary people. So we should thank the court and our ancestors, and we should also thank the people. Only when the people live and work in peace and contentment can we collect rent and accumulate wealth, and only then can our descendants live a good life. What my grandmother said is not like what is written in books, and I will always keep her words in my heart."

Old Master Wang nodded and said, "Your grandmother is right. I am very pleased to have such a good wife."

The Queen Mother looked at Grandfather, as if he had never favored a concubine over his wife, as if his concubine had never secretly harmed his wife. How could he say such high-sounding things? How could he say it without blushing or beating his heart?

"I don't have many years left to live. Everything I do is for the Wang family. Your father is incapable of handling important matters. Your second uncle is indifferent and takes after your grandmother. I never force anything on him. I just hope he can live a peaceful life. Let's not talk about the others. Only you. Although you are the daughter of the Wang family, I choose my wife based on her personality, not gender. You are of the Wang family's bloodline, so what if you are a girl?"

The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes. Was her grandfather praising her by saying this?

"So the granddaughter wants to thank grandfather for his kindness?"

When she saw her grandfather smile, she knew she shouldn't have said that.

Old Master Wang said, "After all, there are differences between men and women. It is men, not women, who inherit the Wang family. If the Wang family had descendants like you, I would not expect to be with you."

The Queen Mother stopped talking. There is a saying that old ginger is spicy. Compared with her seventy-year-old grandfather, what she lacked was time. Time can give people experience and let people think after settling down.

Wang Jingye was anxious outside, but he couldn't hear the conversation inside. There was no sound at all, no anger from his great-uncle, nor from his cousin.

What are the grandparents and grandchildren talking about?

Did you mention your father-in-law’s accident?

During this month, he didn't dare to look at his wife or face his brother-in-law's eyes. He was afraid that what happened was true. How could he face them?

He wanted to ask his great uncle directly whether he had anything to do with his father-in-law's death.

But he couldn't be so impatient. He couldn't ruin his cousin's plan. He also knew that even if he asked his great-uncle, he wouldn't be able to bear it if he looked at him with contempt.

In my great-uncle's eyes, shouldn't anyone who stands in his way be eliminated?

He shuddered every time he thought of that look in his great-uncle's eyes.

If one day he gets in the way of his great-uncle's plan, will he also be eliminated?

So for so many years, he had been interacting with his cousin and helping her, so it was impossible for his great uncle not to know about it.

This means that his great uncle wanted him to do so.

Does this mean that my great uncle is willing to let my cousin control the world and control the world for him?

What kind of ambitions did my great-uncle have?

Wang Jingye's scalp tingled. If... the Wang family would be exterminated.

He knelt down and prayed, "Granduncle, please be normal. The Wang family cannot be destroyed in your hands."

He stood up and thought again, he had been confused recently and had been having all sorts of random thoughts. His great uncle was not a madman and would not have such plans. The Wang family had nothing, and thinking about that was courting their own destruction.
