Jiang Chengzi and Li Ke had just entered the door of the sixth room, and Ayun, the eldest maid of the Yang Wang family, was waiting under the wall in front of the outer courtyard. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

When Ah Yun saw the two of them, he immediately bowed and said, "King Shu, nine girls, Mrs. and Sixth Master are waiting for you in the main hall of the inner courtyard, saying that there is something important to discuss." ”

"Do you know what?" Jiang Chengzi said, taking off his hat and handing it to Bi Tao.

Ah Yun shook his head and said, "Back to the ninth girl, the maid never knew. ”

"Then you go and tell me first, and I'll change my clothes and come. Jiang Chengzi commanded.

Ah Yun was ordered to leave, Li Ke and Jiang Chengzi went back to their rooms to change their clothes, and then entered the main hall to see Yang Wang and Yang Shuyue.

There are no maids in the inner hall to serve, and Yang Shuyue and Yang Wang are playing chess. When Jiang Chengzi and Li Ke went in, Yang Wang was cutting lanterns.

"You're back, sit down. Yang Wang waved his hand, treating the two of them as if they were his own children, and he didn't pay attention to any hypocrisy.

"Yes. Li Ke replied, sitting in front of the low table on the side obediently, he really looked like a child of the Yang family, and he didn't have a prince at all.

"I don't know what is the matter for Grandpa and A-Niang to find us?" Jiang Chengzi sat down next to Yang Wang's family.

Yang Shuyue straightened his clothes and sat upright, and didn't say anything, but asked first: "The old lady has a banquet today, what is the matter?"

Li Ke smiled and said, "Sixth Master, the old lady invited us to drink hibiscus and get drunk." ”

"Ah, she's willing. Yang Shuyue was taken aback.

Yang Wang laughed and said: "She is a big deal, presumably she wants to die and struggle, and she has affection for the King of Shu, and she knows it." ”

"The sixth lady is high. Li Ke laughed.

"I really don't give up. Previously, I wanted to use Yang Yuanshu to tie you up with them. Now, because of the Fangqin incident, your engagement partner is Ah Zhi. They can't control the sixth room now, and they can't hold Ah Zhi, but they still don't give up. Yang Shuyue shook his head, sighed, and said bitterly, "I never thought that my Yang family's thousand-year-old family, and now that I have landed like this, this poisonous woman will destroy my Yang family." ”

Yang Wang also sighed and said to Yang Shuyue: "If it is not broken, it will not stand." Unreasonable will always be defeated, and they will not be retained. You don't have to be sad. When we go to Chang'an in the future, we will make contributions to the six houses, which can be regarded as the inheritance of the Yang family, and it will not disgrace the glory of our ancestors. ”

"I know. Yang Shuyue nodded, and then said, "I just thought that so far, Ah Zhi talked to her like that, she was still obsessed, and today she still has to set up this banquet to kill a thousand knives and do such a stupid thing." ”

"I thought she was still a knowledgeable person, willing to talk to me about the future of the Yang family, but today's banquet is really cheap. Jiang Chengzi pursed his lips, also feeling regretful.

Originally, yesterday afternoon, the old fox asked her about the future of the Yang family, and she also looked at Yang Shuyue's face and wanted to save the Guanwang room. However, looking at this old fox's approach today, he is really childish and obsessed.

"Fortunately, the eldest master is back, let's see if there is any room for return. Yang Wang said.

Li Ke let out a "huh" and asked, "Is Master Yang back?"

Yang Wang nodded and said, "The eldest master was supposed to go directly to Yangzhou, but he rushed back in a hurry, and I am afraid that he also knew about the ancestral house." ”

Li Ke smiled and said sarcastically: "Is he going to come out to take power? Isn't he extremely filial?"

Everyone knows that although Yang Gongren took charge of the first room of Guanwang after Yang Xiong returned to the west, because he was an official outside and the management of the ancestral house was beyond the reach of the whip, coupled with his extreme filial piety, he let this old woman be powerful in the ancestral house, he turned a blind eye, and even many things were acquiesced and had nothing to do with himself.

The old fox has always controlled the ancestral house, and with his son's support, he is even more unscrupulous.

"Today, the Yang family is in danger. He is the eldest son of the princess, so he will never ignore it. Yang Shuyue's tone was also a little uncertain.

Li Ke's extremely gentle tone was sarcastic: "Not necessarily, he has been lobbying me many times for more than ten years, but for their broken alliance." Reason with me and move with affection. I also moved my grandfather out. ”

"Huh?" Yang Shuyue was surprised.

"What's wrong with the master?" asked Yang Wang.

"I thought he was just letting the old lady do the trick and be the shopkeeper. For this alliance, I thought he could see it better than I did, but I didn't care—" Yang Shuyue said slowly.

Li Ke chuckled and said, "The sixth master is afraid that he has always looked down on your brother. ”

Yang Shuyue was silent, and Yang Wang said: "The eldest master was famous when he was young, and he was both civil and military. In the past, Xianyi was angry with the horse, and he was the eldest son of the Hongnong Yang family's Guanwang, who was a hero admired by everyone. It is said that in the ancestral house, he also said the same, and he did things fairly, and the sixth master had great respect for this brother. ”

"That's what it is, it's a pity. Li Ke sighed.

"It's about the same people in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves. Yang Shuyue was a little unwilling.

Yang Wang didn't want to attack and sarcastically mock him. In her opinion, her husband is smart and smart, but sometimes he is too naïve, always has unnecessary illusions about people, and sometimes he is very pedantic.

"Approximately. Jiang Chengzi didn't want to continue to discuss Yang Gongren, so he changed the topic and asked, "What is the important matter for Grandpa and Grandma to find us before?"

"It's nothing important, it's just that the eldest master suddenly came back in a hurry. I don't know what his intentions are with your grandfather. Therefore, I would like to consult with you. Yang Wang said.

Jiang Chengzi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's what happened. ”

"Your lord is also extremely strategic and methodical. We had a tacit agreement with Dafang before, and now, when he returns, I don't know what the situation is. Yang Wang continued, and Yang Shuyue also nodded.

"Auntie, I don't think there's anything to worry about. After all, this big house is the big house of the big man, and the big lady is in this deep house, what to do, how to do it, most of them are the meaning of the big man. Jiang Chengzi said what he thought.

Yang Wang nodded and said, "I think the same thing with your grandfather, but I am still faintly worried. ”

"What are you worried about? Dafang won't join forces with us?" Jiang Chengzi was a little confused, she really didn't think that Yang Gongren was back, what was there to worry about. To be honest, she has a good impression of Yang Gongren, that person is a person who understands the importance of things.

Yang Wang shook his head and said, "This ancestral mansion is very pickled, and I don't want to be involved in the sixth room." It really doesn't do us much good for Dafang to join forces with me. ”

"Then what is A-Niang worried about?" Jiang Chengzi asked puzzled.

Yang Wang was silent for a moment, looked at Yang Shuyue, then at Li Ke, and asked, "Dare to ask King Shu, how much do you know about him." ”

"The parents of the king's house have gone through two dynasties. If it weren't for the changes in the Xuanwu Sect between my uncle and my father, he was afraid that he would not only be an official in Yangzhou now. Li Ke said slowly.

Yang Wang nodded and said: "The eldest master I know is definitely not the eldest master in the eyes of the sixth master, and I also argued with the sixth master just now, thinking that he came back this time, I am afraid that things will change, which is not good for my sixth room, especially Ah Zhi." ”

Yang Shuyue coughed twice uncomfortably, and said, "I, I don't believe him, he will be ruthless to deal with a little daughter." ”

Yang Wang glanced at him sarcastically and said, "If he insisted on marrying my little aunt back then, do you think the old lady could really stop him? It's not because my Wang clan doesn't participate in the alliance, and even Wang Shichong, who they support, doesn't recognize it. ”

"Huh?" Yang Shuyue obviously didn't expect this.

Yang Wang's eyes were lowered, and he sighed and said, "You only know one thing about my little aunt, but you don't know the other. The real deep-seated reason is that the ancestors of the Wang family do not participate in political affairs and do not form alliances with others. After the little aunt and the eldest lord met, the eldest lord came to the Wang family several times, ostensibly to see the little aunt, but in fact to persuade the head of the Wang family. ”

"How do you know? You're only a few years old. Yang Shuyue obviously didn't believe that the eldest brother he had always admired, the person who did things fairly and kept saying that the Yang family should unite as one, was a ruthless person.

"My parents died when I was a child, and my little aunt took me with me, so I naturally know a thing or two about those things. The little aunt thought that the eldest man was here to ask for a kiss, and overheard that he was here to bring lobbyists, and there was a quarrel with the head of the Wang family at that time, and the little aunt cried for a day. Later, the Wang family died unexpectedly, and when the eldest son also went out, he was killed by the rebels. The ancestral hall was opened, and the second son succeeded to the throne. Then, the Wang family began to quarrel, arguing about the future of the Wang family. ”

"Future, is it a quarrel over whether to join the alliance?" Jiang Chengzi asked curiously. Last time, when Yang Wang talked to her about this legendary woman of the Wang family, he never said these details. At that time, Wang's main purpose was to tell her that love was unreliable, and it was better to rely on herself than to rely on heaven and earth. At this time, it is to reveal Yang Gongren's true face.

"Yes. They quarreled inexorably, and the new patriarch thought that the world was in chaos now, because he became a meritorious minister of the new court together with the old nobles, and said that Wang Shifu was strong, and if he wanted to be attached to the Wang family, the Wang family gave him a family tree, and when he obtained the great treasure, the Wang family would be the real royal family. At the same time, it is believed that the old aristocracy should interact with each other, form an unbreakable alliance, and give a little color to those who think wrongly. Yang Wang said.

"It's a really good way to go. Of course, for those who are short-sighted. Li Ke played with the white porcelain teacup in his hand and said casually.

Jiang Chengzi didn't answer, but asked, "What does the other faction mean?"

"The other faction of the Wang clan thinks that the Wang Xie clan is incomparable to the Qinghe Cui clan, the Lanling Xiao clan, and the Hongnong Yang clan. The Xie family learned from fame and fortune and finally perished, while the children of the Wang family, looking at the sky, asked in the sky, and the state of mind blended with all things in nature, so that they could prosper forever. It does not involve politics, does not fight for merit with the army, and does not mix with the change of dynasties. Only to benefit all the people with their own strength. This is the ancestral motto of the Wang family. Yang Wang said slowly, with infinite pride and admiration in his tone.

"The ancestor of the Wang family is really a transparent person. Li Ke said slowly.

Yang Wang smiled, and then said seriously: "It's a pity that no matter how transparent it is, there will be a few scum in the family." And in the troubled times at the end of the Sui Dynasty, there were people in each family who wanted to fight. ”

"In the end, who won?" Jiang Chengzi couldn't help but interject.

Yang Wang lowered his eyes, sighed and said: "At that time, I was still young, and I only knew that the Wang family's ancestral house was a funeral every three or five times. ”

"Someone is going to do it against those who oppose the alliance. Li Ke said lightly.

Yang Wang nodded and said, "If it weren't for that, how could the eldest master agree to come and ask to marry my little aunt." It's a pity that the little aunt has long seen his true face and refused to marry. ”

"Yes, I heard you say that it was the old lady who forced him, and he was not allowed to marry the Wang family. Yang Shuyue was shocked when he heard it, if he didn't believe it before, he now believes most of it.

Yang Wangshi glanced at him and asked unhappily: "You are smart for a while, and you are an elm pimple head for a while." How much truth can people see in this world? The old lady did not allow her to marry her little aunt because her mother-in-law hated the Wang family, and besides, if she strictly followed her seniority, the little aunt was his elder. ”

Yang Shuyue was scolded by Yang Wang's family, drooping his head, only fiddling with the chess pieces in his hand, and did not say a word.

The Yang Wang family also felt that he was too much, so he softened his voice and said, "Besides, how old I was at that time, the whole family was saying that the old lady of the Yang family should not marry this matter." Soon after, the little aunt agreed to marry Wang Shichong, and the maids and daughters-in-law in the house said that she was disheartened and wanted to marry. When I was young, I believed it, and I asked my aunt why she was like this?"

Jiang Chengzi pursed her lips, Yang Wang didn't say so much detail when she talked to her about the legendary woman Wang Anping before. At that time, she also thought that this woman and Yang Gongren were in love, and Mrs. Yang made a stalk to beat the mandarin duck from it, causing Yang Gongren to marry another, and Wang Anping was disheartened and married Wang Shichong.

"Does the little aunt have an answer?" Yang Shuyue also met Wang Anping twice. Because once, when he was sick, Yang Gongren led his troops to pass by Hongnong and returned to his ancestral house for one night.

Yang Gongren has always been good to Yang Shuyue, so although he was afraid of Mrs. Yang, Yang Shuyue still went to see Yang Gongren. It was also on that occasion that he visited Yang Gongren and came back not long after hearing that Yang Gongren came to see him.

The courtyard where he lived was the most remote and rarely visited. Yang Gongren talked to him for a while, and then went out for a walk at dusk. He took Yang Shuyue out of the Yang family's ancestral house and went to the Yingxi Inn.

The owner of the Welcome Inn was still a high-spirited young man at that time. It was there that Yang Shuyue saw Wang Anning, with an outstanding demeanor, dressed in red and with a glorious face, like layers of pink clouds, and a pair of eyes as bright as stars.

"Ah Ren, this, is this my lobby sister's son?" Wang Anning's voice was crisp and very excited.

It turned out that Wang Anning and Yang Shuyue's mother-in-law were cousins, although there was a large age difference, but Yang Shuyue's mother-in-law took care of this cousin in the next room when she was a girl in the Wang family, and the two also became handkerchiefs.

Later, when his mother died in the Yang family, Wang Anning always felt that his cousin was killed, and he had been working hard to practice literature and martial arts, hoping to wait for the opportunity to investigate the murder of his cousin. For the children left by her cousin, she also wanted to see each other very much, but the Yang family was controlled by the old lady, and the people sent by the Wang family were sent away.

This time, she met Yang Gongren by accident, and naturally the first thing she did was to beg Yang Gongren to take Yang Shuyue to show her.

Because of this, Yang Shuyue, who is rarely cherished, was deeply impressed by this aunt and was very concerned.

"How could she answer me. Yang Wang sighed and said, "In the end, I dragged her down." (To be continued.) )
