Chapter 110 The decision of the Wang family
It is said that young people are frivolous and everyone has their own ambitions.
But Wei Jiu's frivolity and ambition did not exist in front of Li Er. The title of Military Superintendent was hung on him. A third-rank Imperial Marquis became a seventh-rank Military Supervisor. How do you think about this?
It all feels a little unnatural.
When it got dark, Wei Jiu was released from the palace, and Qing'er was also accompanied by him. The Quan couple issued an order to prevent this evil obstacle from escaping. Where is he tonight, and where is Qing'er.
You can't go to Wei Mansion with Qing'er.
Wei Jiu was transformed into a fox by a dandy from Chang'an, while Cai Qinghu became a green fox demon. Qing'er considers herself a knight-errant who slays demons and protects the Tao, and specializes in killing such vixens.
Naturally, we can't go to Wenwen Township, so Qu Qingxuan and Qing'er meet.
Tsk tsk tsk.
No less than meeting Cai Qinghu.
You can't go to Baiyu Palace. Now Baiyu Palace has begun to provide accommodation for guests. With the support of the eldest grandson, Baiyu Palace has spoken out to the whole of Chang'an.
There will be no face-to-face service here, and at the same time, it will provide testimony services for overnight guests. If you stay in Baiyu Palace, you will stay. Baiyu Palace will not give false testimony for any guest, and Tianhouhei prohibits any man from entering.
Including the two special ones Li Er and Wei Jiu.
Tayun Restaurant has been closed long ago, and I don't want to disturb them.
Finally! Wei Jiu chose the hospital.
Wei Jiu, who was already short of sleep, took off his clothes and got into bed, and fell asleep. Qing'er was so angry that she stamped her feet again and again, and lay down on another bed and looked sideways at Wei Jiu. After watching for a long time, Qing'er didn't feel sleepy.
, whispered softly.
"How come he sleeps like a dead person, with no movement at all!"
"Don't try to make any noise. The rooms in the hospital are not soundproof, so you will be heard!"
Wei Jiu, who was already sleeping soundly, suddenly spoke, and Qing'er was so frightened that she quickly got into the quilt.
His face was as red as blood.
The criminals in Chang'an were sleeping peacefully, but the Wang family in Taiyuan was brightly lit. Wang Yongting, the white-haired and white-browed resident, was sitting in the main hall with bloodshot eyes. Wang Yongting kept reflecting on what evil he had done in his previous life when he fell to the ground. He was taken away without knowing why.
The soldiers and horses of the imperial court are currently watching. Although they do not stop the Wang family from doing anything, just watching like this makes people feel panicked.
The cause of the matter has now been clarified, and Wei Zheng has personally come to the mansion to investigate the matter. The Wang family in Taiyuan has no connection with the Wang family in Yangzhou, but the troops will not withdraw and the people will not leave.
The reason is that they are worried about someone slandering the Wang family, so the leading army guards are here to suppress those young people.
Wang Yongting had a big quarrel with Wei Zheng over this matter. Those who slandered the Wang family were Zhi Minghou and the Zhao family, but Wei Zheng was cold-eyed and indifferent.
"Master Wang, be careful. Marquis Zhi Ming does everything according to His Majesty's will. Could it be that Your Majesty has slandered you for being too far away from the Wang family? Why don't the Yellow Turban warriors from Yangzhou appear in other families? For example, the Cui family and the Zheng family?"
Now the Wang family is in panic. Instead of trying to clean up the matter, several juniors want to find a scapegoat. So only one person can be the scapegoat.
Wang Xinren of Chang'an.
As soon as these words came out, Wang Zuqing, the second eldest child in the Wang family, could not sit still. He stood up and glared at everyone in the front hall.
"Why is my son Xinren resisting this matter? Why not my elder brother's eldest son Wang Xingui and second son Wang Xinyi? Elder brother, you have two sons, but your second brother only has one, Xinren."
Wang Zuhai, the head of the house, glanced sideways at Qin Ji, touched the shiny bracelet on his wrist with one hand, and said indifferently.
"Second brother! This idea was proposed by third brother. Why do you want my two sons to resist this?"
Wang Zuqian of the third room leaned on his chair, looking slutty and dandy, and said with a smile.
"Huh? Big brother, second brother, little brother just said casually, even if I want my son to resist this matter, my twelfth wife and concubine are not living up to expectations. They gave birth to four daughters for me. If you can suppress it, If this happens, it is not impossible for all four of my daughters to marry Wei Wuliang."
Wang Zuqing spoke with cold eyes and indifference.
"Of your four crooked girls? Is there any one who can show off?"
"Second brother, it's true that you don't have a younger brother, but don't you still have Zhi'er and Qin'er?"
"You fart!"
Take action as soon as you say it.
Wang Yongting has three sons.
The eldest son, Wang Zuhai, has two sons and one daughter. Wang Zuqing, Wang Xinren’s father, has two sons and two daughters. His son, Wang Xinren, is a quiet person with a naive temper, but his work is pretty good, although not as good as Cui Luo and Cui Mang. , Zheng Zimo and others, but as a future home, it was not enough. The third son Wang Zukian was the most favored. He married twelve wives and concubines in one go in order to have a son, but in the end he only gave birth to four daughters.
The head of the family, Lao Wang, looked at the three sons in front of him with disappointment in his eyes, and turned his head to look at his seventh and eighth brothers.
"Lao Qi Lao Ba, you two should also give me some opinions on how this matter should be resolved."
Lao Qi Mantou had white hair and looked a bit older than Wang Yongting. Hearing such questions, he closed his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice.
"Second brother, this game is not dead. If you follow the wishes of the wise prince, you can break the game."
Lao Ba nodded and agreed.
"Seventh Brother's suggestion is a good one. In this way, the Wang family can be saved. As for other families, they have nothing to do with the Wang family. Currently, the only one who is lending a helping hand to the Wang family is the Cui family in Youzhou. The other five surnames and families have begun to cooperate with each other. We have drawn a clear line with us in business. In this case, why do we, the Wang family, need to continue to have the shame of the latter to cling to them? What Xinren did in Chang'an has already taken a step forward for the Wang family, Qing'er!"
Wang Zuqing, who was suddenly called, stood up quickly and bowed.
"Uncle Eighth!"
"Well! Your two daughters were born and raised well. The younger ones are gentle and quiet, and are proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and poetry. Qin'er is a bit naughty at a young age, but who said women can't practice martial arts? Now Li Chongyi, the eldest son of the Hejian Palace in Chang'an, has not yet If you want to get married, and she is close to Wei Wuliang, you can give it a try."
When Lao Ba finished speaking, Lao Qi took over.
"Li Chongyi, as the eldest son, is well hidden in the pools of Chang'an. Moreover, the young girl has the appearance of wealth and honor. The princess is not allowed to do so, but the lady ordered to go is a cyst."
In the first case, his son Wang Xinren was asked to convict him, and in the later period, his daughter was asked to make a deal in exchange for a relationship with Zhiminghou.
How could Wang Zuqing be willing to do this, but Wang Zuqian was anxious to ask Uncle Qi.
"Uncle Qi, how can a childish girl like that be attracted by Li Chongyi? How can she become a little princess with such a soft and frail look? Did you make a miscalculation? What about my girls? They all have their faults."
Lao Qi frowned and glanced at Wang Zuguan, and said indifferently.
"Being born into the Wang family already means wealth and status, which is unattainable and incomparable. Second brother, I am a little tired, so I will go down to rest first."
The head of the family, Lao Wang, stood up and helped his seventh younger brother. This younger brother was the living ancestor of the Wang family, and his astrology and horoscopes were no less powerful than that of Yuan Tiangang from Chang'an.
The two living ancestors, the seventh and the eighth, were gone. Wang Yongting frowned and pondered. Although the situation of the Wang family was not difficult, but they abandoned the five surnames and went to the Hejian Palace, the loss was not too great. It was better than losing one person in one day. Just let the Wang family disappear on unfounded charges.
Other emperors may not be like this, but the current one is a demon king who kills his brothers and imprisons his father.
The matter was discussed until dawn. Wang Zukian kept begging her father to let her daughter Wang Qin go to Chang'an. Although her appearance was not that of a childish girl, her temperament and family were not weak.
But in the end the Wang family made a decision.
"Zu Qing, let the young girl go to Chang'an to find her eldest brother Xinren."
In this case, Wang Zuqing had no way to refuse. He returned to his yard and sighed as he looked at the two wives and concubines. They didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The young girl had already been engaged to Lu Sheng of the Lu family, because Lu Sheng was in Chang'an. After being seriously injured, these things happened, the engagement was postponed indefinitely, and Wang Zhi, as the concubine of the second son of the Wang family, married the legitimate son of the current head of the Wang family, which meant she was looked down upon.
After thinking so much, the veins on Wang Zuqin's forehead tensed up, and he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice.
"Let Zhi'er come over and see me."
Wang Zhi, the concubine of the Wang family, was inferior to her sister Wang Qin in status, and inferior to the eldest son Wang Zhihua.
She is twenty-nine years old, similar in height to Qing'er, but not as plump as Qing'er. She is slender and looks frail, and her face always has a slight smile, but the ridiculousness contains indescribable sadness.
She knew her destiny, to marry Lu Sheng, the legitimate son of the Lu family, and she had heard about Lu Sheng's bad reputation, but this matter was decided by her father and grandfather, and she had no right to refute it.
Walking into the main hall with broken steps, Wang Zhi looked at his father, aunt and mother. The sadness in Wang Zhi's eyes became more intense, but he still bowed respectfully and tenderly.
"The daughter pays homage to her father and her two mothers."
Wang Zuqing looked at this thin girl and couldn't bear to say it several times. In the entire Wang family, the most obedient girl was his child. Her parents' words were God's will. This had been the case since she was a child. She would go east when asked. Ask her to walk twenty-one and a half steps, and she will stop with one foot in the air until her parents speak.
Do not refute when scolded, do not run away when beaten.
Even when she was asked to marry that Lu Sheng, she didn't show any intention of resisting.
Wang Zuqing felt that he had failed his daughter, and Shi Zai couldn't bear to say that he was using her as a tool to marry into the Hejian Palace.
The main hall was extremely quiet. After a long time, Wang Zhi suddenly raised his head, narrowed his eyes and smiled brightly at his parents.
"Dad, the baby has prepared the wedding clothes and can join the Lu family as a concubine at any time. The baby will go pack his bags right away. Parents don't have to worry about it. The baby is gone."
Talk with a smile, turn around with a cry.
The destined fate can still be changed illegally, but the kindness of parents in raising them must be repaid.
At this moment, Wang Zuqing spoke.
"Daughter...Daughter, Daddy...Daddy has something to say."
It's okay that he didn't speak. The moment he spoke, Wang Zuqing couldn't control his trembling voice. Wang Zhi, who was already in tears, turned his back to Wang Zuqing and smiled forcefully.
"Father, son..."
"No need to say more, Zhi'er, you just need to say whether you are willing to join the Lu family. If you are willing, even if the head of the family asks, dad will send you to the Lu family. If you are not willing to marry Lu Sheng, dad... I can only send you to the Hejian Prince's Palace to marry his eldest son Li Chongyi. Alas! It's my father who is incompetent, I'm sorry for you."
Wang Zuqing felt very powerless. As a man who was upright and upright, he couldn't even decide on his daughter's marriage. What was the use of living in this life?
Marry into the Hejian Palace?
Wang Zhi's body trembled, he turned around and looked at his parents with tears on his face, and then he knelt on his knees with a thud.
"Dad, Mom! I want to marry into the Hejian Prince's Palace, even if I want to be a concubine."
The words "even if you want to be a concubine" completely broke Wang Zuqing's heart. A man in his forties cried bitterly while holding his daughter.
"Zhi'er, my father can't help you as a concubine or a wife. As for whether you can marry into the Hejian Prince's Palace, you have to fight for this opportunity yourself. It's my father who is incompetent and I'm sorry for you."
At this time, Wang Zhi didn't know whether he should be happy or sad.
In the end, she was reduced to a tool.
but!
